    The Air Force blew up this tiny ‘pirate boat’ with a 2,000-pound smart bomb

    2000 LBS and that's the biggest "boom" they could get out of hitting not just a dhingy but also lots of water... ??? I am disappointed. I expected better of the Americans.  ;D Wicked photos though.

    Vancouver Mayor, Police Chief say city facing "mental health crisis"

    When I have to sit in a hospital for 5+hrs with an MHA, only to find out they were discharged an hour after I leave is the most infuriating. Why? Because not only does it mean I've wasted my time trying to get them help but it also means the system is broken.

    Survey: Vets "Face Significant Barriers Finding Meaningful Employment"

    Preference in legislation; maybe not. But the employer may have a personal preference to hire former CF personnel because of their better discipline, hard work, better train-ability etc. I know one of my employers hired me straight into a senior supervisory position simply because of my PRes...

    Walts, posers & wannabes (merged)

    He's all kinds of frigged up. CIC cap badge but a Private chevron and no unit flash? Cottage-cheese beret, saluting in an Apple store. He's definitely a huge poser airsofter wannabe. Too bad it's TO, I'd go give him "the good word"

    Do you still believe in Heroes ?

    Heroes are not those in capes or comic books. Heroes are everyday people that make selfless sacrifices to overcome great misfortune, suffering, turmoil for the benefit of others. Heroes are people that put their lives at risk keeping complete strangers safe. There's a hero in each one of us...

    What is the army cadets like?

    I volunteer at a unit, I was also in for the full 7 years as a youth. You can join 12-18. You can join at 18 spend a year in and when your 19th rolls around you're "aged out". But nice try kid.

    Restrictions on carrying knives in Cadets?

    Consult your chain of command. Last I check (few weeks ago) the common trend is no longer than 3 inches blade length and ONLY if its a folding knife or multi-tool. NO Fixed Blade.
