And cpls will be leading sections... again. Most of them try hard, but lack of experience hurts... and it hurts learning of the soldiers under their command.

So I'm guessing the new guys fresh off their BIQ or whatever equivalent is not going to Wainwright then? Well, I always thought having the CAC right after ARC was good way for new guys to practice what they learned over the summer at an ex away from course settings, as well begin to get...

So what are the rest of reservists in LFCA be doing for CAC?

You gotta give the afghan farmers a viable alternative to poppy cultivation before you go on and destroying their crop. Or else, you're going to just piss them off and more of them will turn to Taliban and warlords for protection and against Karzai govt and NATO. Gotta keep their belly full...

It's not what you say, but how you said it. I don't want to sound anal or anything, but we've had enough of regs vs res BS in this forum. -DS

It doesn't help that many of the new guys are from high school, and not of drinking age...

Hello. Current member of RHFC here. You can PM me any question that you might have concerning my unit.

100. Don't feel bad or get angry for doing a little extra. Chances are someone else important is watching and taking notice. So what if your peers choose to be a little slack. Doesn't mean you have to be and more importantly, you know you're being the best soldier that you can be. 101. Everyone...

I dunno about you guys, but when I see this sort of EVIL happening and no one in the world seems to give a damn enough to do something about it, I get mad. Forget the politics for a second. Are the people of Darfur's lives worth less than any other lives in this world? What is our humanity...

Interesting. Castles and forts were used as method of projecting permanent presence in an area. Could be more effective than using choppers to bring in troops whenever a presence is required. Only works because the insurgents don't have anything to hurt these forts...
