    New Task for the Armoured Reserve?

    At the risk of rehashing an old argument, the role of Reserve Armoured units (as with all other PRes Units) must remain-Force Generation for the Reg force.  Unfortunately, due to the fact that we are not receiving training (with the exception of a very very small few) on Coyote and heaven forbid...

    Effective 1 OCT 06 - No PT Test for Reg Force Applicants...what the...?

    having not seen the directives regarding the PT test, I'm going to speculate that a conditional waiver will used, explaining that upon arrival to CFRS St Jean, CF Express testing will occur.  If someone fails it, they will placed on Remedial PT until they pas it. If they can not pass it, they...

    New "HLVW" type Mercedes Truck in Gagetown?

    They're being assessed for replacement of the MLVW.  You can see more on Army news. One of the episodes between 45-55 I think.

    Response to the Ruxted rebuttal of Jack Layton in the Toronto Star

    Bottom line.  The Jack Layton Fan Club can spout all they want.  For them to win a federal election, they have to win the majority of seats in Ont.  That's not going to happen, as Ont is still very angered over paying off a debt from Bob Rae (Then Premier of Ont).  This the same reason why the...

    NATO: Too Many Restrictions on Foreign Forces in AFG

    I seem to remember a certain country deploying 2 fighter Sqns to the Gulf during rd 1 of the Gulf War, with the restrictions that they will not be used out side of CAP missions with in Saudia or Bahrainian airspace.  This was lifted towards the end of the war, after the majority of fighting was...

    Ex Vigilant Guardian

    To add to what Recceguy said, Finding the Firebase and your Attack Positions are actually your Six Zeros job (close recce versus medium).  Again, if we are asked to do it we will be glad to, but we need to know in advance what you require so we can conduct a propper contact handover to you.

    The VG series of exs are based on the CATS scenarios, which resemble Haiti a lot more than Afghanistan.

    Responses to "Co-op program called death sentence"

    Wookilar-  We haven't had to place a rebuttal.  The Star ran their own rebuttal, using the facts about the course as provided by the Bde Recruiter the very next day.  31 CBG of course put out the talking points regarding the issue, but they where the usual points emphasizing everyones right to...

    Responses to "Co-op program called death sentence"

    Zipperhead_cop-  The rebuttal article was printed on A3 in the very next issue.  The article was as least long as the initial article, and as I posted already reflected well on the CF.  As for the editorial, it also reflected highly on the CF as have 90% of the letters to the editor following...

    F-18 "Shoots" Down F-22

    What where the ROEs for the ex?  This may explain as to how the Rhino was allowed in that tight to the Raptor.  More likely though, it probably also involved a lot of luck.  Golden BB type things.

    Responses to "Co-op program called death sentence"

    Zipperhead_cop-  I agree with your view on the Star, as I said I don't have high regards for a lot of our media types.  I'm saying the article(s) weren't really that bad (from the CF view point).  Yes there was a lot of misinformation regarding the program, but that came from the tree huggers...

    Responses to "Co-op program called death sentence"

    Not that I am a great supporter of the left winged media in Canada, however I must defend the Windsor Star with this.  What wasn't placed in the post, was the fact that the very next day (with out being pushed for it) the Windsor Star ran a long rebuttal article, and a Opinion column calling the...

    Iran Super Thread- Merged

    Well, as for the Iran cutting off oil, the Price as of 0730 this morning in Windsor is $1.05 a litre.  And that is just with the rumours of sabre rattling. The rest of it, sounds very similiar to the N Korean issue that came up prior to Bush's exploration of Iraq for NBC Capability.  I do have...
