Ok, I tried the search function and couldn't really find anything on this. I was just wondering back when we had airborne artillery, did they actually jump with the C3 or whatever gun was used at the time? Moreover, I was wondering if there are any plans of bringing back Airborne Artillery...

Geeze, nothing like a thread title like this to scare the hell outta me. lol. Serves me right for having the same screen name as a mythical creature.

Well Fred, I really have to disagree with you here about Shane Doan. First off, his alleged comments are just that, alleged comments. It has never been proven that he said anything along the lines of what he is accused of being said. We live in a society where an individual is innocent until...

Just to annoy you even more, HoM, but you still haven't spelled boots right ;) No apostrophe required, hehe. But, I share your disdain for parade boots, and oxford shoes, too. lol

Vern, did I hear you right? The food is not bad? lol. Man, how some things change... I remember it as being absolutely awful when I was there 3 years ago.

highlandgirl, if RMC is anything to go by, no, you will not be reimbursed for a laptop. I had to pay for the laptop that I am currently typing this message on. Sorry to burst your bubble on this but I'd imagine that if RMC students aren't entitled to it, civvy U students probably fall under the...

Pure heave, eh? ;) Didn't imagine you'd be heaving with a good cigar and a good drink. lol

Ah ignorance my old friend. Ignorance is bliss ;) Hence why I'm so blissful that the site is pretty much back to normal, or so it seems. lol.

Mike, I have no idea how it is that you do what you do but I will echo the sentiments of the others. Keep up the great work and keep me getting my fix. lol

Just a little correction to Jeff's post. It's an 82 pattern ruck, not 84.

In the past week, I have read about the deaths of 3 soldiers who I knew through friends, two of whom I had personally met this past summer in Gagetown. I know these deaths have not been in vain, they died doing their jobs and fighting for what they believed in. I know this is the nature of my...

Geeze, so you mean back in the day, Canada was comprised almost exclusively of white men with some visible minorities thrown in there? What a clown, first suggesting we simply by trucks INSTEAD of C-17s when we clearly need both, now this... God help the CF if he ever becomes the MND. Oh, and I...

Alright, I stand corrected :)

Unless I am greatly mistaken, which is possible considering that I've been awake for 39 straight hours working on papers, the CF Drill Manual states that saluting OCdts is optional. From my experience, whenever I have been saluted by anyone, I return the salute and greet the individual who...

And the Flames are IN!

I guess someone forgot to tell my Sgt, DSM and our entire flag party. lol.

I can confirm that ALL Int Os must do CAP. I had an Air Force Int O on my course last summer and I know a Navy Int O who is doing CAP this summer. As well, MPOs also do CAP, regardless of their element.

It's not so much that your lack of community service killed you, it's that they placed you where they felt they needed you. If lack of community service had killed you, you would not be going to IAP and you certainly would not be potentially marching through the Arch in September.

HoM, I might be in the bitter minority here, but I honestly think you're on to something with your line of reasoning there.

Right, leave pass. Forgot about that part. lol.
