    The Minigun

    Alrite, sorry for sounding condesending. I just like saying "son" because it sounds friendly and affectionate. I say it to my cadets all the time. I hope i didn't offend, Kiltman. I didn't get that part  ???

    The Minigun

    Lets do some simple math. at 955 rounds/min, that's about 15 rounds/second. At 3000 rounds/min, that's about 50 rounds/second. If you have fired a 22. 308, or even a C7, you know there's a little kick. Now multiply that by 15 times, then a few more times for the larger calibre.  Don't believe...

    The better choice

    I think the best choice for your friend is to go down to the Recruiting Center or reserve unit he is joining and talk to a recruiter. Tell him to ask what are the advantages and disadvantages of both, do some research himself, talk to both officers and NCM for their opinion, and make a decision...

    a little help please

    Well, joining cadets is a good start. Get familar with army structure, how stuff works, go out in the field and see how you like nature. Talk to someone who is in the army, ask them questions that matter to you, and also talk to your guidance counsellor when you get to highschool. My best advice...

    Skyhawk Wings and Berets

    He's right, ya know. And besides, seeing the Sky Hawks landing into a school field and signing autographs and such might inspire some kids who have an otherwise mundane future want to sign up for something exciting like the CF. Heck, when my CO got me that poster, i was excited as heck, did some...

    Building your drill voice!

    Lol, vocational classes are what you take to become a priest/nun, maybe ur thinking of Vocal classes. If not, then that's still cool. Where's trinity, he's got a new recruit. As for the halls, i wouldn't reccomend it, they feel very harsh when you have any sort of throat injuries. Well atleast...

    Building your drill voice!

    If you went to Blackdown, you might remember the Sergeant Major of Hotel Company. He was my former RSM. What he taught us was to squeeze our buttcheeks together. Stop giggling, this is no laughing matter!  >:(

    Cadets Joining the Reserves - Can it be Both?

    Actually, according to the recruiting center, you must leave cadets once you have sworn in to the Forces. But i asked this in the context of a Reg force member. It probably is different for reserves.

    Skyhawk Wings and Berets

    My CO just came back from Holland for the VE Day celebrations. Since he knew i applied to the Cadet CF Basic Para course, he brought me back an AWESOME poster of the Skyhawks with all their autographs. I was looking at it and thinking about them and thought about what their wings and Berets...

    Living at the RMC

    So does this also apply to Junior/Senior? If they offer ROTP with a prep year, does it mean that you will have to take it or get nothing at all?
