    Experience differences between training women and men

    I so do agree.  When I ask to have the rocks moved over behind the building, I expect it to be done with out all the "Whys".  Some times it is because I need them there.  Other times it is because I need to give them something to do.  But most important to me is that I done need trainees...

    Rank in the Family?

    My cousin is a Maj and I am a PO2.  I call him Target, as he flies CF18s and I work the guns on ships that shoot down the planes.

    Crew tames fire aboard navy frigate in Atlantic

    We had plenty of fires back in the day that didn't get reported to the news.  The only need to give the families back home peace of mind is because to much info is being sent home over the e-mail.  As for being open and transparent, that would be for the news.  IMHO no need for the news to even...

    Experience differences between training women and men

    I think less has to do with believing the BS and more to do with "why".  Like women, higher educated men are not happy with "this is how we do it", they want to know the "why, we do it that way".

    Experience differences between training women and men

    What an interesting topic First off Mr. O'Leary Neanderthal Tactics have not been retired retired by the CF Yet.  Some of us still use them.  But then they are retiring me in tow months so that might be what you mean. During the past five years I have been sent on a number of courses trying to...

    Crew tames fire aboard navy frigate in Atlantic

    I like the way that was worded.  "a large fire in the engine room" was reported by the news, and "it was extinguished within minutes".  Could they make up their minds.  A large fire would take more then "minutes to put out, even with "an automated halon sprinkler system". You have to love the...

    URINE Questions

    I remember being told to drop all our druggie things the the box at the door when we entered the H huts at Cornwallis.  I was surprised at how much there was in the box. We had not trouble with druggies on the range, or anywhere for that matter.

    MARS being renamed?

    For the same reason in the old days, the trades were "weapons surface: and "weapons under."  We draw the line at the surface of the water.

    So, what do you do with your free time?

    Say it in one word  "Geocaching.com".  Hide and seek with a GPSr.  Can be done in the city/town, hiking trails, or deep in the woods.

    Tim Hortons in Theatre Merged Thread (in AFG, no plans to preposition)

    From the navy point of view there is nothing like a Tim's after a long trip away.  A four hour fuel stop in St Johns  brings on a lot of Timmi es.  I can well imagine how thank full the soldiers are coming back on base and being able to grab a Tims.  Bravo Zolo to all involved in getting it to them.

    History of shipbuilding in Canada - Since WW II

    As someone who was greatly involved with the last war ship Canada built I can see why our ship building went under.  To start with SJSL spent so much money upgrading their facility to build the ships that there was not much profit in it for them.  Their labour cost were so high that they could...

    Paid off vs Decommissioning split -HMCS Fraser looking for interested volunteers

    I wish I could just let things go, but I can't When they start paying us for over time at sea like they do for the Coast Guard, or even letting us bank the overtime and returning home early like the Coast Guard, then maybe our pay would be equivalent.  When we get called out on a search with...
