    Weapon Myths

    Crap!  I should have checked my text before I posted that.  Huge friggin error, you are right, I should have said smoothbore, not rifling. (Edit - many swear words...I cannot believe how I got that mixed up...)

    A New Look At The Afghan-Pakistan Problem

    Interesting map!  Could you provide a link to where that came from? I tried a net search and couldnt find it.

    Most Annoying Canadian! VOTE NOW!

    Hmmmm...some tough choices!  I dont think I'd be able to pick only one!

    Good example.  According to the older guys I worked with who joined in the 1960's and 1970's, a lot of members had the same story.  Bad choices, broken homes, and/or lack of family were common factors.  It was also true for guys I knew who entered in the 1980's.  Apparently its still true...

    Weapon Myths

    Yes, the PKM round is the one that they must have been refering to.  Ref, the NATO 81mm and RS/WP 82mm mortar rounds, that is another story that has been around since at the early 1980's.  Apparently, this would allow the Russians to fire our ammo but we would not be able to fire theirs. ...

    Combat Support Company?

    I think you took my comments the wrong way.  I was curious and asking questions, not challenging your expertise.  Some of what you described was different from what I experienced and I sought amplification.

    :rofl: Kids today cant live without the 'basics'; computer, coke and junk food.  I need a crowbar to get my kid away from his keyboard.

    Combat Support Company?

    The manning and layout looks bang on, but i have a couple questions... When you say '2 x comms' do you mean 2 x comm sets or 2 x persons performing comms duties?  I think you mean 2 sets but wanted to make sure... How long ago are we talking about? I was in mortars in 1988-1990 and troops...

    On Dallaire

    Hopefully he wont suffer the same humiliation that Clinton suffered in 2004/2005 when he visited Winnipeg for a dinner speech.  Apparently not one person had bought a ticket one week prior to the event.  We had a great time ragging our U.S. coworkers about how they hadnt bought a seat so they...

    I was trying not to say that - thanks for falling on the grenade for me...  ;D

    On Dallaire

    Too late.  I think 2Cdo developed his attitude a long time ago.  A silly question.  Many of the older generation here you are addressing had friends who were there, or might even have been there themselves.  I sincerely doubt that he actually saw all 800,000 people killed, but he likely saw...

    Re: Army.ca Status- Who Replaces Mike When The Dark Helo's Swoop On Munster?

    Scoutfinch and 48th now tied with 16 each...   :o When does this vote end? Want to keep an eye out for when the two hit the campaign trail for a last shaking of hands and kissing of rears.

    AN OPEN LETTER TO THE TALIBAN, AL'QUIDA AND MILITANTS IN AFGHANISTAN.

    Did your letter get approved by the chain of command?  ;)

    Is China a threat? (from: Global NATO?)

    That one I would have to disagree with.  Ive read this prediction for almost fifteen years and their economy keeps growing.  The last economic forecast I read (last year) predicted that they would keep growing for another 5-10 years before levelling, but are unlikely to go into recession. ...

    YOU, my friend, are a very bad person!  :tsktsk:

    On Dallaire

    What exactly do you want me (or others) to rethink? Are you refering to a failure to add an honorific when speaking his name, or are you saying that a person is not allowed to make negative comments about him?  Bear in mind two facts: a) when you become a political creature and claim to speak...

    The movie - A State of Shock

    Hey, I keep hearing my name!  ;D Thanks for the info, didnt know there was a movie of the place from back then.  The one I have is from 1992 when they closed the place down. Oh!  Also have a very rare recording on casette of the live Air Farce performance when they visited in 1992. Im going...
