This would depend on what your hours are like, and how much time off you can get.  For your first two courses (BMQ/SQ) you can do them on weekends.  As long as you don't work weekends, you should be fine.  Be prepared to be able to commit Friday night to Sunday night. For your trade course...

I got my call last night.  I have a spot on TF 03-07. I go sign my class C contract on Monday.  Work up starts January 1st. I'm pretty excited about it.  I can honestly say I have learned A LOT from reading this site, and it has proven to be a great resource for us new guys.  It's going to be...

Wow.. That should most definately be the fault of the taxi driver, but the law is funny like that.  Say for instance you are driving down the street and slam on the breaks (doesn't really have to be a reason) and the guy behind you slams into you, although logic and reason would make you think...

RIP Brothers.  :salute:

I honestly don't believe everything that comes out of Layton’s mouth are his exact views.  He is simply catering to his following.  This is the truly sad part.  He is willing to lie, demoralize our fighting men and women and create un-warranted controversy at the expense of the troops, all for...

Maybe someone should also remind him that it was actually the Liberals who initially committed the troops to this mission....  ::)

Also, Russia isn't the only country spying on us.  I read a report a couple of years ago that we have caught Korean spies, claiming to be Chinese, spying for China a few times as well.

Journeyman hit the nail on the head with what I wanted to know.  I just wasn't sure. 

Interesting point.

I wouldn't say ALL else..  ;D

I would say they take it "far too serious" because in times like this their lives depend on it...

Yea, I vaguely remember a buddy talking about those awhile back.  I'll look into them.  Thanks.

Not looking for an argument George, but I didn't have the time to scroll through 10 pages of threads with the word "underwear" in it, each with multiple pages.  My shift at work is almost up, and I wanted to get a quick answer so I could place an order tomorrow morning if need be. Thanks to...

Thanks for the info MCG.  The thing is (as retarded as this sounds) I only have 2 pair of issued underwear left.  The rest for "mis-placed" on course...  I was contemplating going to the clothing store for more, or purchasing some better ones for the field.

Ok but seriously...

I did a search for underwear and came up with a bunch of replies about the issued (although I didnt read through them all)  My question is, what would you guys recomend for underwear while in the field?  (ie: A good, rugged brand that stands up well in the field, and protects like (if not...
