    VAC Spending/Downsizing (merged)

    Its funny that I live in Ottawa, but my new case manager is based out of.. either Kingston or Hamilton, can't remember. Either way, its impossible for us to have a face to face meeting, and she has told me its their SOP that they not give out their office phone numbers. I need to sit on hold for...

    What's the dumbest thing you heard said today?

    Am I missing the sarcasm, or are you being serious? I sincerely hope its just me misreading it.

    Liberal Party of Canada Leadership

    Speaking as someone with not a politically strategic bone in my body. Does it seem like Mr Trudeau is not giving any specifics on policy because he feels his "celebrity" will be enough to win this election, and if that doesn't work, by next election he won't have anything concrete the...

    Comparing the Regiments (PPCLI, RCR, and R22eR) and thier bases

    The RCR. The only difference between training in the different regiments is each has their own distinct parade moves. I did my battle school in Wainwright, but was posted to Petawawa and still fail every time I try The RCR halt.

    Canadian Forces base on Google maps ??

    Someone from my section recently posted a pic of our COP as seen on google earth. Kind of odd to see the LAV's still there, even though we've been gone for years.

    Army.ca Subscriptions Now Available

    I couldn't find any info on search, but I recently changed credit card companies. Seeing as I am super lazy and forgetful, how can I update my info so my subscription keeps automatically renewing?

    Getting married during training

    I don't know if they will give you time, but even if they do, you should either postpone it or do it before your course starts. You will have absolutely no time for planning or prep or anything during course.

    Argentina Reasserts Claims To Falklands (again)

    Some things are more important than money. I was gonna ask what you'd think if someone tried to take Quebec by force, since they cost us a fortune to keep going, but then I realized cheering in the streets would not make my point well!

    Infantry of Tomorrow

    I don't know how relevant this will be, but here is my anecdote. Overseas, each section had 11 guys (8 GIBs and 3 vehicle crew) but the COP we were in, you couldn't drive to. Every patrol would then have 8-10 Infantryman (1-3 on HLTA, tasked with IRF, etc) 2-4 Engineers, 2 Psy Ops, 1 CIMIC (sp...

    Tactical combat casualty care ( TCCC )

    Though I can't answer your question, remember if you are TCCC trained you cannot use it outside of a combat situation without being liable for damages. Anything beyond First Aid is not covered, so you can be sued.
