While not officially mess dress, I was wondering if anybody knows where I can get my hands on a pattern forPatrol Dress?  Different Regiments have slight differences in it but it is all basically the same.  Can anyone help?

Thanks, Dave.  We like it.  Don't forget our annual mess dinner on the first Saturday of December, every year.  If you're home visiting, come by.

The Winnipeg Free Press article is interesting to say the least.

Alright, Reserve, R011, 25 years, 2 tours and the Ice Storm.

Each Brigade could DAG their own people and the funding could be found by diverting some of the promised money or by not putting so much on the National Debt. If the government wanted to make it happen, they could.

Oh stop teasing! 

I'm sure I'll get flamed for this but they could offer a 6 to 12 week class C contract to reserves for this task.  As it is not a traditional military task there wouldn't be a need for 3 months work-up (or time for the survivors).  This would leave the regular force to maintain their operational...

I'm going to get the RINO 120.  That's what most of the guys in the Regiment have.  It has some great features and you can get one from ebay for around $200 USD.

I was in Kempville as well.  Six of us went to Kempville, the rest of the Windsors went to Cornwall.  I've never seen so many Hersey chocolate bars in my life!  If you were there, you know what I mean. ;D

Here's my 2 cents.  I haven't read the entire post but I've read enough to comment.  I think that a lot  has to do with us being short changed on training at home.  When was the last RV?  How many long FTXs have we been on?  The military can't afford to hold big, long FTXs and this short...

I read it and enjoyed it.  I thought it captured the feeling of being there.  I also recommend "My War Gone By, I Miss It So".  I forget the author's name but also worth a read.

I hear that we are not allowed to wear our blue berets this year.   Anyone else hear that?

I have to agree with recceguy, there are a lot of pics of battle damaged vehicles.  Nothing surprising about that.  I only saw one picture of a burned out M1 but even still, one tank for a whole campain isn't too bad at all.  Hell, we've had vehicles catch fire sitting in a hanger.  As an...

If they do, they'll have interesting neighbours.  MacKenzie Hall down the road has a few ghosts in it.  It used to be the place of execution for Sandwich. In the Hall, there is a set of irons that were taken off a skeleton unearthed near the foot of Prince Road.  Seems that the old county...
