    All things GPS (recommendations, tips, etc.) - merged

    The dangerousness of it would all depend on the situation and what value you put into those you lead. A GPS can be spoofed, leading people into an ambush. Guided munitions can be spoofed sending 2000lb bunker busters on civilian targets. Unencoded radio traffic can lead the enemy to one of our...

    Do posting messages come through any commcens anymore? I just got posted out of the Commcen in Ottawa and it was months since we sent posting messages. At one time they ALL (for all the Forces) came through a specific machine, approx 15,000 a year. Then it stopped and started going through...

    Canadians losing knowledge of military history

    You know I think I'v actually made the same point in other conversations with friends. Basically, providing a basic framework is what high school is all about.

    Canadians losing knowledge of military history

    My point is this... The posters in this thread have generally made the point that Canadians should learn about our battles. Nobody says why or what purpose that would serve. Some only wish to compel other people to show respect to our veterans for what they did by learning 50 men died to take...

    PPCLI Poster

    We ddin't. It didn't come out to general issue until 2002. I was being facetious. Interesting demographic they're targetting with the commercials based on that positioning.... I guess they could change it to air during Larry King?? yeah what is wrong with airing it during the Simpsons?

    All things GPS (recommendations, tips, etc.) - merged

    There are many factors that can cause a GPS receiver to present the wrong information to the user, and spoofing is only one of the myriad ways. Environmental effects, atmospheric conditions, electrical/mechanical issues. Something as simple as having the antenna covered and not noticing the...

    Canadians losing knowledge of military history

    Why is it important to learn military history? There are many more things that make us Canadians and proud citizens, arent there? A general knowledge of it is not bad. Universalized health care also makes us proud Canadians. I had no idea who created that untill I watched the Greatest Canadian...

    PPCLI Poster

    Which ones are the PPCLI? Its nice graphically but its kind of uninspiring. A soldier mingling with a bunch of kids. Come on... we are not trying to wins the hearts and minds here at home are we? We want fighters not baby sitters! I like that new commercial I see during the Simpons every...

    CANFORGEN regarding fleece kit

    Your dedication to your chain of command is truely inspirational. However, your total lack of respect to established rules and regulations is abysmal. The SM does indeed have a say, his say in the matter makes him liable for your actions. In other words, hes removing you from your responsibility...

    All things GPS (recommendations, tips, etc.) - merged

    Am I alone in believing that the Taliban spoofing our GPS is a little far-fetched, even if it is theoretically possible? Its not theoretically possible. It is possible, its been done. If a GPS can recieve a signal, then someone can send a different signal for the GPS to recieve. Dont...

    Army.ca Status- The History of Outages & Dark Days

    There have been reports that last month there was a strong surge in spam. All types of it, referrer spam being the one web admins have to deal with. Sometimes when I check my logs theres 1000's of lines of poker sites. On my site (in my profile) every now and then, people from China shut down...

    Sig Op QL4 Package...

    I did one in 2000 at 1  HQ&Sigs. I really wonder why it died out. TCCCS only made a portion of it obsolete. Theres still antenna construction, radio relay, inmarsat... not to mention all the TCCCS stuff that could be inserted.

    Sig Op QL4 Package...

    I am looking for the official or unofficial (aka OJT) QL4 package. For years now rumours have spread that there is no package, however some units still do hand them out and ensure they are completed. Do we or do we not have one? Is there any official messages stating either answer? And...

    Correct Grammar, Punctuation... vs Text (Tweets, Emoji…)

    Ok I am not that young, and I do not use the leet speak. I know who does use it, and I know why. I also see the language changing because after all, this is the future generation. Things that dont adapt, dont survive. These weekly street rags you speak of, may not be using the ROFL etc...

    Correct Grammar, Punctuation... vs Text (Tweets, Emoji…)

    The English language is evolving every day. The Internet is making many more noticable changes to every day language. Now aside from the obvious ignorance and blatant spelling errors I'd like to say my piece in defence of the "MSN/ICQ speakers." Some people speak differently than others, why is...
