    Training Mission in Kabul Afghanistan

    Brand new qualified  MOD 6 Cpls and Mcpls would be the best suited for this task. Teaching the ANA is not your typical instructing. I was at KMTC in 2006 and because our training audience was illiterate we did much "instructing by drawing diagrams in the dirt with our Gerber knives and using...

    Training Mission in Kabul Afghanistan

    If there was ever a mission where MOD 6 Corporals could be used in the training of recruits this would be it. There is not much difference between the Kabul Military Training Centre and LF WATC,  Meaford or Valcartier. As per I expect the the army will go heavy on the officer side and take a...

    Are Corporals shown the respect they deserve by subordinates & superiors?

    Are Corporals shown the respect they deserve?I would think that they would want to earn some respect first.In my platoon in Afghanistan many times the Privates outperformed the Corporal.Some Corporals are worth their wieght in gold for the section and platoon.Some others I wouldn't give the...

    Verification of Former Service (VFS) [Merged]

    Rosco, To bad for him for breaking his CNP conditions.We can't care how great of a soldier he was if he can't control himself with alcohol.NCO's get paid to train troops and they should not be in baby sitting mode because Cpl Supertrooper can't make it to work on time!!

    Is post-traumatic stress disorder over-diagnosed ?

    I'm sure that their are many members of the CF that are just tired of hearing about PTSD. If you need help just go get it. If you are over diagnosed so be it. It will all buff out in the end. Tow Tripod

    Roger speaks out

    I'm going to give everybody an opinion that they probally do not want to hear on this web site. A soldier suffering from PTSD is not news worthy right now. Every soldier in the CF wether he has deployed to Afghanistan or not has a story to tell. Obviously soldiers that have deployed deserve all...

    Ottawa mulls role in Afghanistan past 2011

    Jesus Christ if I insulted anyone about the Tac Nuke statement I apologize but come on lets get serious here. I would not ever consider myself the SME on counter insurgency operations ( I think General Leslie is. I think he wrote the PAM on it actually) Every Roto that has been over there has...

    Ottawa mulls role in Afghanistan past 2011

    This is the first phase of the Canadian withdrawal or surrender. Either way you look at it 2011 can not come soon enough for the Government of Canada. Giving up Mushan and the other COPS is the start point of a gradual withdrawal and to be honest I have not heard exactly what the Americans...

    Holy Sh#T, That is the best news I have heard coming out of that place in a very long time!!! Allah could put him on counselling and probation for conduct and his peers on recorded warning for performance. I don't mean to be insensitive but this is funny no matter how you look at it!!!!!
