There was a company we dealt with a number of years ago that was building prefab homes that could be easily modified to barrier-free standards for ill/injured soldiers. Everything was cut and assembled on jigs. In many ways, this meant they were better built than those by local developers. They...

On what land though? The fed govt is busy trying as hard as it can to divest as much DND property as possible.

Maybe he's emboldened because the pee pee tapes got erased somehow?

Would be a real shame if something happened to those ships. Just saying...sometimes ships have fires, or blow up unexpectedly...

Israel, the honey badger of the middle east.

I may be wrong on this, but do not the Americans have a differentiation between ribbons for accomplishments and those for actual decorations/medals? I made the near-fatal mistake once of teasing a Marine Corps Maj, asking if they were for filing, typing, etc - they were for a myriad of...

Good question - almost all of the information I have is focused on land operations. I'll see if I can dig into it and find an answer.

For Regular Force applicants - yes, they will need to choose between Combat Medic or Paramedic. I am also not certain they will accept any Paramedics for a few years. They will be reducing from about 1,300 Med Techs to about 300 Paramedics in the Regular Force, and all of the remainder (who are...

EMR is actually part of the training that will be provided to Combat Medics. While it might make your file more competitive if they have numerous applicants and limited positions, you will get paid to take the training if you are successful in getting in.

The answers are somewhat situationally dependent: What is your current civilian clinical skill set and certification/license: If you are applying to the reserves, and you are not currently qualified at a minimum as a Primary Care Paramedic (PCP) in your home Province, then you cannot apply for...

Did you take bets on whether the cot would fail?

Just for that, I'm going to crank Spirit of the Radio and Tom Sawyer

Dead man walking, we got a dead man walking here.

You wouldn't happen to know anyone looking to offload one... asking for a friend...

One of the best ads ever - though I still want my pet house hippo! If we can land a rover on Mars, or develop mRNA vaccines, then we can genetically engineer a house hippo!

How about a tinfoil hat emoji?

Thanks Edward, very much appreciated. And, over the last few days, this calculation has now fully changed with the death of Nasrallah, the US keeping a second Carrier task force in the region, and the news this morning from BBC that Iran is preparing a ballistic missile strike on Israel. Both...

I'm curious, and wondering if anyone here who is more learned in the region has any thoughts or articles to recommend. My question is this: Lebanon is in theory a sovereign state, yet they have Hezbollah operating with seemingly absolute impunity within their borders. Does this mean that the...

Hmmm, I wonder if Roshel could produce an Ambulance variant for use from R2 to R3, possibly even from R1 to R2? Something that can hold up to four litter patients.

Coming off of the BMQ doesn't necessarily mean releasing from the unit/Reserves entirely. We often have students who need to pull out of their course due to unexpected workload. If we have the positions available, and they are certain they can commit, we will sometimes hold them over to a summer...
