    Shoulder/chest holster for issue Browning

    I have used both types in CC's hatch on the Leo C1.  The leather version was the easiest to use but did not carry any extra mags.  The web version was a snag trap and my spare mags would end up in the bottom of the turret. For one exercise I used a 64 pattern holster on a spare resperator bag...

    Artillery callsigns vs other trades

    An interesting observation.  There does not seem to be any obvious reason other than its the way the RCA fixed call sign table is set up.  Other differences are RSM - 97 rather than 9C and the BSM position is 17 rather than 19C. Any information on why they are different would be appreciated.

    CF moving to Multicam?

    Well trained units perform all of their duties to a high standard so your saying is of little value.  Our soldiers carry out their duties in operational theaters or on parade square with the precision that's required.  What uniform their in is simply a matter of geography. As fare as milticam...

    New RCAF Command Badge?

    The RCAF has taken the bate and brought back their command badge. I have no idea why as they already look like the in the Airforce. Congratulations to the RCN for holding out on this one. As per the Army it's just a built in instinct to pin shiny bits on their uniform.  Can't be helped.

    New skill badges recognize unique naval operations qualifications

    Have to give to the Navy. They are out patching the Army and Airforce together.  Our most conservative service has jumped on the bandwagon of buttons and bows. What's next?

    CANFORGEN 040/19 - Patches and T-shirts

    What an interesting transformation of our forces. This loosening of the the dress standards to raise mortal is a bit of a smoke screen. Members of the forces take pride in what they do and how well they do it. T-shirts and patches don't creatate this training does.

    Unveiling of New CANSOFCOM Dress Uniform

    An interesting choice in uniform colour and style. Not a bad idea at first but as the US Army is now returning to pinks and greens our special forces now are dressed like Americans. Guess we jumped the gun on this one.

    Cold War Memories

    The cold war to me is summarized by my service in 4 Brigade and our base at CFB Lahr. A real mission with our best equipment.  Post war history has confirmed that we were just a shell of an formation with no depth.  Even at our best our government  ensured that we would be finished after one...

    64 Pattern Webbing

    The 64 pattern was a joke as far as anything a soldier needed.  The failure to include ammunition pouches of any kind suggests it was designed by the same gang that came up with the unification CF uniform. Gun tape and locking wire was the norm to keep it together.  How could so many hard earned...
