Due to the risk of Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (mad cow) people who have "Spent a cumulative total of five years or more in Western Europe outside the U.K. or France from January 1, 1980 through December 31, 2007" are unable to donate blood. When I was young my dad, and consequently my whole...

The Allied Communication Publications are a series of international military communication standards produced by a committee 5 English speaking nations. http://jcs.dtic.mil/j6/cceb/acps/ Of those publications, ACP 125 is concerned with Radio Telephone Procedure (voice procedure) and is at...

And we enjoyed the time you spent with us. It is a shame to see you go, but if anyone has earned it you have. You taught on an AVCC course at the Squadron and even though I was only tasked as a driver I learned more in those couple weeks in Wx than on some full courses I have taken.

Present company excepted, of course. At least in my case, I know every comment I have posted on this forum has been insightful, intelligent and helpful. No need to check my posting history, you can just take my word on that.

I can say the same about people in the GTA who stayed away from the OPP because they were not interested in working in a small town in the northern Ontario. Provincial Police forces may be what the RCMP should transitioning to, but they will not solve the problem of recruitment as there will...

A few years ago I was on a tasking with a WO from CE. He said the plan was to build a new building in the field between LdSH and 1 Sigs. All the little flags/rods in the end of the field closest to 1 Field Amb were, apparently, "soil testing markers."

Seriously man? It took me about 30 seconds on Google: Source: http://www.rmc.ca/adm/index-eng.php

Have you finished an LSVW driver course? If not, I wouldn't get my hopes up about DP 1.0

From the article:

Yes, that is what they mean. So you don`t look like a sloppy dink when walking around for the first few days.

You need to start running more, running is a big part of the PT on BMQ and will be a factor in your follow on training. Get off the treadmill and go outside. Running on a treadmill is a good way to get your cardio up but at this point you need to acclimate your body to the type of running you...

What are you talking about? I am pretty sure the plan is to eventually replace all man-packs/hand-helds with Harris radios and upgrading vehicle installs to next generation GD radios. I'm sure it will be just as successful as the plan to push data comms over EPLRS.
