Let‘s keep to the topic and stop the personal insults.

I agree, why not fight for oil. ****, the Brits went to war with China over tea. Oil drives our economies and the welfare of our countries. How about this, tell OPEC to shove their oil because we now control Iraq's oil and Kuwait is our friend as well. If these *******s want us to keep...

Most regimental cap badges were made out of brass at one time so I can see where someone may have come up with the term BUT they are cap badges. The newer badges like logistics are made from white metal with a gold coloured wash on them and enamel (paint). These are available in cloth, gold...

Remember all this when they call the next election. Remind everyone who will listen.

Your right their, two. :blotto:

Corporal Cam and nbk . If you watch the news at all, you'll notice that with the Madrid bombings, there seems to be a new direction in the terrorist strategy. Whether you like him or not does not change the threat. As well, the Americans and the rest of NATO have every right to complain...

Up-date for March 9, 2004 This morning we left about 9 AM to travel to Port au Prince and the Spanish Embassy. XXXXX was leaving for the Dominican Republic to meet her mother, XXXXX. We were afraid she would cry when we left her at the Embassy but she didn‘t cry at all. She was such a good...

Anybody know where I can find information on the CF express test? I have to take one before going on course next month and would like to know what I have to do and how many of them I have to do. Thanks

Do we vote for the devil we know (liberals) or the devil we don't know (Conservatives)?

So how close are we to total collapse, a year or two? Any opinions?

The man-power arguement is irrelevant as I doubt there will be the political will to carry on such a mission. The government has been preaching that we are â Å“peacekeepersâ ? rather than war fighters and the rest of the country believes it. Without a change in opinion and the political will...

I for one like the way things are in Canada. You get a "I‘ve been there" medal for the tours. Guys who get the meritorious and bravery awards really earn them.

Here a story for you. I went to a U.S.M.C. birthday dinner in '93 where I was talking to a young Marine. He had three medals on his dress blues. I had to ask him what they were for. He had the National Defence medals for the Gulf War. He looked a little young so I asked if he was there. He...
