The only constant is change.

The USUAL distinction currently in use (and it's not all that accurate, but accurate enough for your purposes, I think) is that light infantry is dismounted - IE, they don't have AFVs as their main form of fighting. The "Light Infantry" in PPCLI is an historic appellation which is no longer...

Good point, Moe.  Done. Roy

Actually - it was your posts that stuck in my mind and enabled me to recall that thread - figured it might give the fella' the answer (and some perspective on it) he was looking for.

Yes - and they will have invented a NEW way to greet one another in a respectful way.  And then, a couple of generations after THAT, they will say "can you imagine that they used to ... " And so the cycle continues.

Enclose a phrase (two or more words) in quotes - "Basic Up" - this holds true for most search engines I'm familiar with. So as not to knock this thread off topic, if you've got more questions about the search function, PM me or any other DS.

And merged. Good work the_girlfirend. Not to worry Lavitz - at least you tried, and now you know more about the search function for next time! Roy Harding Milnet.ca Staff

Heck - your school uniform sounds like it would a good thing to wear.  ZERO dollars to spend!

HA!  That's great. I'm a cabinetmaker - buy me a beer sometime and I'll tell you about the time I failed to properly clean my hands before peeing, after using cyanoacrylate glue (crazy glue)! I've never worried about physical contact with folks - even the cheek kiss is no big deal.  You may...

brandon_ Be neat, be clean.  Lose the piercings.  Wear "decent" pants - IE, not your ripped, bleached jeans.  Doesn't have to be fancy - just neat and tidy, "Dickies" come to mind as a cheap pair of trousers (should be able to get a pair for less than $30.00) that look neat and tidy.  Lose the...

Good on ya', Bianca. It sounds to me like you and your Father love each other.  He's doing his best to accept your decision, and you're doing your best not to shock him too much all at once. Best of luck to you. Roy

Nope.  But in my experience it was rare - and it was usually self-correcting because of the aforementioned (perhaps misplace, but real nevertheless) pride.

There have been, no doubt, some extremely disappointing actions (or non-actions) by the Government (ALL governments, not just the current one) over the years.  I suspect that there is much more to these stories than ever gets published - I imagine DFAIT's hands are tied regarding what...

Stop talking about me like that - I can hear you, you know  :)

I remember the Kessler thing when it happened.  Don't forget that this took place in 1986 - BEFORE the Gun Registry and accompanying silliness.  And also don't forget that Mr. Kessler WAS charged - but a jury wouldn't convict him.  If he hadn't had public support and dollars, I'm not sure he...

For the record.  A user uploaded a link to an online movie site.  I've removed that post until it can be determined if the site is legal or not.  I searched the net looking for answers, and came up with lots of OPINIONs - but no answer. I'll not knowingly leave Mr. Bobbitt open to legal...

You may be right, I don't know.  But it begs the question - who uploaded it in the first place? (And yes - I've been guilty of downloading pirated stuff - I'm certainly not holding myself up as a paragon of virtue here - despite my earlier flip comment).
