    "Army investigating members allegedly involved in 'abhorrent' Facebook group"

    Don't think it matters if the posters are going down the admin measures route.

    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    That whataboutism is strong here, but I wouldn't be cheerleading promises without shovels in the ground.

    The War in Ukraine

    Lifting is way different than dropping which is way different than dropping accurately.

    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    Repeal of consumer carbon tax was a cheap political trick to save their asses in the election. Without removing industrial carbon tax, it's just hidden the cost from the electorate. We're supposed to be happy it's gone when we were supposedly getting more money back from the rebates? That's...

    The CC-130-J Hercules Merged Thread

    The CC-130-J Hercules Merged Thread

    RCAF version of the TAPV???? New Kit nobody wanted and now has to figure out how to use them? That is to say, Airbus is looking at EW and firefighting variants. Another Sqn of tactical aircraft with those kind of capabilities would be extremely helpful and that firefighting aspect is an easy...

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    This is the logical response. To think a politician is picking their plane colour so show "they mean business" is laughable. If they wanted that impression, he should have flown over in a CC-130J wearing Zelensky-esque 5.11 Tactical.

    Israeli strikes on Iran (2024, 2025, etc.)

    Formal withdrawal from NPT may just mean the end of the Iranian military. The Fordow planning started with Biden, ending the nuclear threat will have bipartisan support among the huge group of moderates in the middle. Bleating fringers will complain for solely shortsighted partisan reasons and...

    Israeli strikes on Iran (2024, 2025, etc.)

    Ryan McBeth does a good breakdown on some next steps post B2 strikes and a bit of a backgrounder on his hopes for the Iranian people:

    Informing the Army’s Future Structure

    If we went that way. The politically expedient way to 3.5% is expensive toys for RCAF and RCN that may or may not have any strategic value. CA kit is relatively cheap in comparison, it's costs are more in the pay/benefits for the human workforce.

    NEED Shooting Practice for BMOQA Willing to Pay and also go out to the USA for lessons

    C6 and C9 are prohibited, you will not learn those on a civilian range. You are also only doing famil shoots, safe handling is the most important. Just go onto the course and learn how they want to teach you. If you take civilian training, you will learn bad habits (or drills incompatible with...

    NEED Shooting Practice for BMOQA Willing to Pay and also go out to the USA for lessons

    If you're failing PWT 1, I think I know exactly why: Need to get strong enough to hold up the c6 or c9 similar to Call of Duty You potentially lack the physical strength to stabilize the rifle for 45-60 seconds at a time. No amount of shooting training is going to do that. If you are...

    Israeli strikes on Iran (2024, 2025, etc.)

    I think we're all mature enough to keep the political pot shots in the politics area, or I can just move this thread and lose half the contributors that don't want to go near those sub boards? Back on track.... @brihard other than missiles, I don't think Iran has the means to strike back. As...

    Couldn't have happened to a nicer regime. Iran has now entered the FO stage of their nuclear and terror programs.

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    There is. Past cuts to L101 saw a lot of the contracted staff at DGDS let go. They're allegedly hiring 40 people before the fall and working on implementing a new system that will detect the QC errors before submission (ie: dates not being concurrent) that slow down reviews. CMP mentioned it at...

    Plar bsoc

    As a Sgt? Probably not. Pull up the QS and be prepared to justify where you eligible accomplished every PO. BSOC is a DP1course, they're not going to waive a bunch of requirements for you.
