    Here it is, my personal story.

    That is what is wrong with the troops. They have ADHD controlled by ritilin and dope. Great I don't know weather/wether/ lether to laugh or cry.!!!!!

    "COMBAT SCHOOL" Starts on Discovery Channel 10 Mar 09

    Hey I thought tonights episode was pretty good. It should give a good insight into how much PRE TRAINING that while is sometimes "PAINFULL" it still has to be conducted. It also shows the minor differences between the PPCLI and the RCR regiments. Those that are in will understand!!!

    Mushe Immigrate's to Canada

    Not to be a complete A--hole here but these dog story's are the lamest story in the media. If a dog is a operational tool fine but if it is just a pet that gets attached to every contingent it could probally stay in Afghanistan for the rest of its life and personally I would not loose any sleep...

    "Taliban will lose ground: Canada's Top Soldier"

    What makes the Taliban slow down during the winter months is that the do not have ample winter supplies. I would not say that the are retreating by no means. They will resort more to suicide bombings and large IED'S to inflict casualties on coalition forces. At the same time the will be...

    NATO Blinks, Calls For Forces To Retreat From Taliban If Civilians At Risk

    Ummm, MG34 I promise that this will be my last post on this subject. As you know everbody walks away from their tour with different thoughts. I believe that we are fighting for the same piece of ground since 2006 based on our manning of the AOR. I never felt that the ROE's was an issue. It is by...

    NATO Blinks, Calls For Forces To Retreat From Taliban If Civilians At Risk

    Old Sweat (Sir) & all, I have updated my ambiguous profile. Yours is a typical respones on Army.ca. The only thing that I will say is that I feel people(GAP, MAM_933, The Beaver, MG34, retiredgrunt45 )maybe underestimating the intelligence of our troops on the ground with the application of ROE...

    NATO Blinks, Calls For Forces To Retreat From Taliban If Civilians At Risk

    Ummm, With the exception of Prairie Dog I would think that everybody in this forum should GEAR DOWN. Lets take a step back. The order was to withdraw "IF THEY CAN" . The Taliban already occupy the villages( BATTLESPACE) and without Positive Identification (PID) nothing will happen anyways. The...

    "The stuff the army issues is useless" and "no non-issue kit over seas!"

    Those hush puppy shoes and Cyprus socks are/where the cats meow.Cyprus was the best social event I was ever invited too.It is impossible to make everyone in the army happy with the kit that we get. My days of buying additional kit are long over. So I'm back too saying if the army doesn't get it...

    Close Combat Vehicle: Canada to buy another AFV (& keeping LAV III & TLAV)

    Lets just hope that the PUMA doesn't have the same track pad idea as the M113. In Croatia we would do 8 hours of maintenance for a 8 hour patrol. Lets have a change track pad afternoon/night!!! I do like the idea of a 30mm cannon.Make it big.Would anyone have any pictures of the inside of this...
