Maybe if we can somehow put together some chaps/Habs pics Vern will finally get on board  >:D

Can't say I agree with you there. The Flyers are just a team of gray men. The Habs have speed and youth, the Bruins had heart, but Philadelphia, while technically a good team, is wholly unremarkable. Montreal in 6.

Flyers it is! I'd say that with Montreal taking the season series 4-0 this could be a piece of cake, but something tells me I shouldn't...

No expectations? So you mean you show up to training with no intention of learning simply because you're not on a course?

Canuck89, in time you'll learn that there's plenty of 'on the bus/off the bus' in the Army. If this is the worst that happens, be happy. It's unfortunate that you didn't get your course and tasking when you wanted them, but there's always next year.

Good thing they won...who knows how bad it would have been if they lost?

I can imagine that Sunday the 16th of March must have been quite a shock for you, Catalyst...How many drunks did you have to shoo away from the second and third floor windows that day? Yrys: just because I disapprove of pants does not mean I will post chaps photos for you and Vern! Kilt photos...

Working at that Chapters is bad enough... Working there during a playoff game...dear God...

I know that, Yrys, I'm just still trying to figure out where we got it from...

As a devout Habs fan, I still have no idea what that chant is about...

I've been on militia exercises where English and French units were both participating. With no clear instructions, it's more frustrating than anything else...

It's on iTunes? All I can find is the Army News Podcast. What exactly are you searching for to find it?

Now that bit I don't like... Anyone have any idea how the other potential candidates would deal with that issue?

I agree that LGen Natynczyk would be the ideal candidate for CDS, but is there anything fundamentally wrong with being army-centric like LGen Leslie? Didn't many people think the same of Gen Hillier when he got the job?

Yep, that's me. Things are good, but I'll be brief in the details because I'm still recovering from yesterday's mess dinner. There's an easy way to avoid an awkward flopping cap badge...just do what we do and don't wear one!

Thanks for the backup, Brihard. Our tams have a very defined edge, much less material, and an all-around stiffer feel. They also naturally slope evenly towards the front. Every time we get a new shipment they come out a bit different, and just like the Camerons' balmorals, there are different...

There's a picture on the Voltigeurs website showing the colours/drums being saluted as they pass, fourth from the top. http://www.voltigeursdequebec.net/pic_browser/browse_fetes_2005.html

Acen - the RHC wear a modern version of the Tam O'Shanter. It's smaller and stiffer, but distinct from a balmoral.

Vern, would you mind enlightening us as to what all these boots are that I'm not entitled to? It's like there's a whole other world of footwear out there that I never knew existed...

I wonder what it means when what really struck me was how butchered the Latin was... but I want one too.
