100 percent sarcastic.  ;) Having said that...this is how these people in this province think.

Please tell me more about these FEMA camps. ;D

Absolutely not. People in that region respect our clean shaven faces and boot bands more than the security we can provide. Thats what our Battle Group RSM figured anyway.

Soldiers going on tour shouldn't get free vacations (I.E HLTA). Navy ships should pull along side just long enough to get what they require to run the ship and get back to sea. People working at Tim Hortons in Labrador don't have perks to their jobs so why should anyone else?

Funny thing is when I see the helo landed besides a no named pond I think good training. These people in Labrador would be losing their minds if a pilot had a hard time landing somewhere in a rescue situation. Media would be quoting 3 tooth wonders saying things like: "Why don't they train to...

And tinfoil hats of this being a prep for martial law in 3..2....1...

This is actually part of the test. Timings to get to the medical from your interview are recorded as your "best time". Usually they allow IIRC 9 minutes to get the 2.4 km (including some stairs...don't take the elevator....they will know). Brush up on some history for the interview. Ensure you...

You know what I'd like to see the army issue while deployed? Watches. I had one watch fry in an explosion, and another just died while in Panjuai. Luckily I convinced the ANA to go buy me Casio's for 1 dollar each time. Watches and timings are important!!

I signed up at 17 (NCM) after I graduated grade 12 with mommy's signature. My first WO's claim to fame was "where else can you make this money with a grade 8 education!"

I've seen a man totally freeze under stress. Infact the man was usually a solid rock and very competent. His gunner had to take over sending the nine liner as he bumbled around. I think the study's will find no one is safe from having issues both on and off the battlefield. Ironic enough the...

Some seem to believe there is a large support for our troops and the military in general in Newfoundland. Compared to Alberta, Ontario, NB; I have to say there is a lot less support from what I've seen in Newfoundland. It's a fine mix between jealousy that someone has a excellent career; and a...

Not to mention I doubt many of the gang members sits down with a few other guys eating pop corn figuring out the moral messages of movies. Gangsta rap however I'm sure is more prevalent.

Why must the media try to spin this as a masculinity issue. This is a Black community problem. I think MLK would be horribly disappointed.

So how much B class has been cut at reserve units again? When did people at the base become above being tasked to do this CO's coffee once a week? When did swing instructors become so busy they can't do a coffee run.

I'm gonna have to get an accountant to figure it all out from the pockets full of quarters and loonies in my mess kit. ;D

I didn't think the Na'vi were serving up there!

I'm gonna put in for all my booze at the last mess dinner. It seemed like a work related expense that I get absolutely inebriated beyond the norm. The RSM ordered us to have a good time for ourselves! ;D

I fell under the old YCJA way back when. The system gave me a second chance to smarten up; and my parents the chance to ensure I did. Needless to say their idea of justice was much more stringent than the governments stance! Freebies like the young offenders act work for youth with normal law...

May he rot in prison for the remainder of his years.

I know you have no issue with the laws and courtrooms that would have many a soldier nervous. Don`t focus on the lack of skill sets from your BOTC; but look at the skill sets you already have which are most impressive.
