We men need more of these type of incidences reported.  That way more people will start to believe it does happen.

I feel so angered with this "Red Friday Foundation", but all I have to say has already been said, except:  Why is their rally not being held on Friday? Did they want to ensure it was not confused with the real Red Fridays? I proudly attended the Red Friday Rally in Bridgewater Nova Scotia and...

I ride (well you guess) and I used to sail in the navy.  Now I just instruct, but I don't want to be Harley Instructor. People may want me to instruct them in motorcycles.

I almost did, but I get in enough trouble without going looking for it.  ;D

I am by no means religious, BUT I think that we as a country have gotten to far away from out christian believes.  Seems to me that the French have it right this time.

Yes, that was me and Killer.  I was hopping you would spot me.  I had three friends spot me and come over to chat. I sure was a great rally. I have a couple pictures and will post them when I can down size them. Nice to see all the invited guests. The TV coverage was small but good. The only...

Abe Lincoln with a red shirt.

Maybe I'll see you there.  I'll be the one in the top hat.

Should not that be "about this subject"  ;D  >:D

Well it was bound to happen. I was at a retirement ceremony today for a fine sailor with 25 years service.  At the ceremony they all talked about what a great guy he was and how great it was to sail on ships with him and work in the school with him.  Yes "on" ships.  There was the DIV...

Having worked for a couple weeks on the Haida in the early 80s, I will agree that you have found a great SME.  I also see that he agrees with us about the caps.  I also agree with him about "the" not going in front of HMCS, but he said nothing about "the" not going in front of the ships name.

Again I say, if you ask the right question you get the answer you are looking for. What unit was that again?

If I were you I would go to the EMAA site and look at my pay statements.  They are very detailed with where every dollar went and you can look back each month for a year. http://img-dcb-aemaa01.forces.mil.ca/emaa/engraph/login_e.asp

I guess you are right JollyJacktar, it all depends on who you talk to. You ride on a train, on a plane, and in a boat/ship.  Anything you board is considered getting on, not getting in. If you hang around a cruse ship you will be told to get on before it sails, not get in. Same at the train...

And that would work if this was within DND correspondence.  As this is not then I believe CFP 200 is more to the point.  Another case of good intent, wrong context.

No thank you, I already have one. But I just can't let this drop with out one last comment. We sail In the Navy and On(-Board) ships. 

So because one site says it's true then you beleive it...kool

With 30 years in the navy, and having lived with my father while he was in the navy, I've never once heard anyone say they sailed "in" a ship.  When ever I'm asked it's "what ships have you sailed on". As for what ship is better, the old steamers were the best. It was a harder life, but it...

No probably about it.

Again you need to look at the role of the CPF before talking about it's defence.  You need to ask why would a CPF be under attack from multi threat. Does the enemy usually attack a patrol ship or the main body.  That would be like using your team to take out the recon team and giving your...
