2 Sigs got a Sgt by that name from the regiment recently. Any chance the "good guy" got promoted and posted?  ;D

Yup..It was. I'll see if I can catch a pic of one this week.

Probably because he used the word "gat"... ;D

Not to dig up an old thread but I saw a G-wagon drive by with a .50 mounted on it in Wainwright a few days ago. Man that gun looks huge on that truck!

Should those blanks be filled in with "16" and "tower" ?

Kev I was taking some training on BF for Ex Maple Guardian a few weeks ago and the instructors told us that we had been offered BFT but sadly were opting to stay with SAS. That being said I understand that there is still some major use of American systems/software in Kandahar right now, I just...

Didnt realise the difference. Thanks for the education. Love that avatar btw. displaced west-coaster

We have lots of sigs working in the trade without their clearance. They dont use certain kit and they are not likely to go on deployment but they do get their trades training while waiting for it. By the time your clearance comes in you could be done basic, SQ, BDT, and your 3's. So try not to...

Well congrats. I filled out my app to go cat 2 but was told today that my CoC feels that I need to try out for cat 1 so it appears that I will be joining you on the 30th. All the best to anyone who gives it a go. Sig

Just thought that I would add that you can set up a pers e-mail account at www.canada.com and access it from DND computers.

Nope, I'm stuck at 2 sigs forever..lol

Yah. Then its called pushing, not leading..lol

Fraid thats not always true at 2 Sigs. We spend lots of time in the field without our troop officers.

The Privates that work for me get PDRs but not PERs. PERs are for meriting and since Privates don't merit..... Thats the way it has been around our Sqn since I showed up. Just my 2 cents :salute:

No posting for me this year. I did apply for CSOR but as we are scheduled for roto in early 07 I have been told we are quarantined.

Once you get out of the school and actualy do the job at a Bde then and only then should you be commenting on what we carry. Speak from experiance not conjecture and suposition.

Don't get used to it. That stigma does'nt exist in every unit. Some units discourage that crap and once you get away from the school for a decent length of time you will find yourself in a good trade.

There were 16 of us that showed up and we all went to rover initialy but by the end I was the only rover left (the rest went to out dets). we would have been in less danger at the out dets as it turns out. I had way more excitment as a rover than any of the out det guys did. Thats a suprize...

Actualy Radop my course didnt graduate until 7 weeks before the deployment so we missed all the mission specific stuff. We got 2 weeks of rushed training and then we were off on leave until deployment. Our course graduated mid to end June of 03 and we deployed in Aug of 03.

LOL...at 2 Sigs some of our MCpls dont even have PLQ yet. Can't see that happening around here. (at least not with 215's). Even if they all had PLQ we still wouldnt have enough man-power to support a Roto without privates.
