I had the pleasure of meeting and working for LCol. Rafferty during a weekend Ex leading up to Stalwart Guardian a couple years ago now. Even though it was just a weekend Ex he made quite an impression. You could tell he cared about each and every person under his command and those that were...

Wes Thanks for the reply, my lack of comfort with the pistol was due to a number of factors; - Small unit - I had three jobs (S&T Coy Pl. Comd. - my favorite, PAFFO/PAO - hated it, UIO - same as PAFFO/PAO just more paperwork) - Time and resources - we had very few pistols to go around and even...

Okay I am straying outside my lane of knowledge here but I'll say the following. With 6 yrs in the reserve world as an officer, I can honestly say I was not at all comfortable with the pistol. I actually got to shoot it once in the entire 6 yrs I was in and I was a regular attendee who never...

Good work to all involved

Too true Go, this is what I like about it as well. There's very little BS between the troops and when someone says they are going to do something 9 times out of 10 it is done.

Well said MarkOttawa, it'll be interesting too see if you get any responses in future letters to the editor

Well then, these particular Rangers certainly don't lead the way...

Oh dear god please tell me they weren't as a reservist myself, I would be ashamed to be around these clowns. That is just sad ::)

All these items are new and in great condition. I own these free and clear and am allowed to sell these off. I need to clear out some space moved to a new smaller house and space is at a premium. Make me an offer. Men's CF Sweater 1 - R-XL 2 - R-XXL Men's CF Overcoat Size 7046 with the liner...

Agree with all the comments 110% I have had numerous arguements with more Snr. members of my former unit about having weapons out all the time, after about 4 yrs of repeating myself it finally became standard practice to have weapons out all the time when training.
