    Your Favorite piece of Issue Gear

    My favorite kit is my bivy bag. I like it because it can be packed down, great for those long nights in an OP when off shift.

    Canada Goose in cadpat !!!

    Snowboarding Jackets are only good for when you snowboard.  Ripping it down the hill tends to generate body heat.

    Personalizing your gear.....

    I think he means a riflemen should still have the capability of carrying the c9 should the gunner die, i.e. have pouches that can carry the boxes of ammo.

    How much Geomatics does this unit do? Do they take the theodolites out and estabilish entire surveying networks to begin finding elevation values of control station monuments and the azimuths between them?  For what purpose does this unit use geomatics (road construction, bridging maybe?)?

The Queens Rangers were disbanded in 1802.   In 1812 the York militia was formed to help defend Canada.   I believe the unit claims historicial significance to this because...
