I am wondering if there is any kind of information/operations manual that is geared towards situations where North America would be overrun with an occupational force? I am thinking that back in the cold war, there may have been tactical information for a militia to engage occupying Russian...

Upon my release I was told I was allowed to wear any part of my CF DEU uniform. I'm sure you have all seen photos of vets wearing parts of the their uniform in parades etc.  Once you are out, you are out and a civilian. You don't need permission from anyone as far as I'm concerned. I could...

I suspect that depends what Trudeau wants to accomplish...which I don't really know what his goals are.

I worked alongside LCol.  Sajjan overseas for a bit. He is sharp and thinks outside the box. He pushed hard to start looking at the Taliban as a Mafia rather than an insurgency creating networks of linking one person to another through money exchange. It was an interesting perspective and likely...

No Chillie? That was the best one by far!!...or was that in American rations? I can't recall, it's all fuzzy memories if I was actually munch on rations. ;)  Beans are good too....the thought of a Poutine ration makes my stomach churn (not in a good way) just thinking about it. I normally like...

Love it or lump it, I foresee community service. Perhaps have him scrub floors in the military museum would be a fitting punishment if it comes to that?

Having worked close with Vance in Afghanistan I can say he knows how to play the political game. He has built up a strong relationship with Harper over the years, and Harper likely trusts him. The man is half General half politician. He knows how to convince people to try new ideas by gently...

Ha! I will have to check that part of the country out when I get the chance. Most southern I've been is Houston and found the oil and cowboy culture alive and well. Actually the only shocking thing I saw there was a blatant separation of class via race. Mexicans served us food. African Americans...

I got to work closely with some American troops overseas. I recall they started graphing the number of times I said 'Eh?' in a conversations. Other than that there was little difference between us. We worked really well together, no issues. I found them nothing like the American stereotypes I...

A comparison has to be made in some manner, otherwise you can't build any meaningful statistics. Trick is to find a comparison that really means something. Comparing number of abused in general population to number of abused in military is reasonable but too broad to make any detailed...

Read more: http://www.ctvnews.ca/health/soldiers-more-likely-to-have-experienced-childhood-abuse-study-1.2237375#ixzz3RsJjeIsm Okay, the above statement worries me a lot. Let's say a soldier shows up with PTSD, is treated for it. Treatment is only so effective and said soldier needs help longer...

So these are preliminary results. Being slapped/spanked more than three times qualifies as abuse? Witnesses to domestic abuse is broad. Verbal abuse? physical abuse? Have you heard your parents yell at each other more than three times?  Does that qualify? So what are they trying to correlate...

How much did that course cost!? Also, is Splinter as rat like as he appears on TV?

Soon, a book about his adventure. Likely followed by a movie about ten years from now...depending on what events took place.

The concept has merit, however there are some pretty big red flags. The jump from the warp bubble generated by interacting radio waves, which they claim caused a compression in a laser beam. To the fractal patterns that are supposedly generating these warp bubbles as well. There is no...

Ones quality of life should not be allowed to drop because of the injuries they suffered while serving their country. It is the responsibility for the VA to ensure that and those in that situation get support, which they fully deserve.

I had a phone to another area code. I didn't want to switch as I still conducted a lot of work at that number, plus I  was locked into a contract. CoC demanded I get a phone with a local area code. So I just gave them the number to the pay phone at the shacks. *snicker* If they really wanted me...

Military discount on Black Friday...I can see the temptation, but the adacity of some people is shocking.

Does not necessarily indicate criminal activity either. Possibly became suicidal or similar incident requiring him to be taken to hospital against his will,  etc. As indicated by the article I sited, this behavior is strongly linked to depression, which is strongly linked to suicidal tendencies...

Then I expect nothing less than a few heads on a pike outside the front entrance to the VA main office. ;)
