What weirds me out is that after 18 months of occupation they have not found anything. So after more than 10 Years and a huge investment we now know one of two things either Iraq did not have a huge NBC program that threatened the world or two, the American military complex could not find its...

Keeping subs will allow us to keep the skill set they require both to operate and hunt. Operation also inludes maint which is very specialized and has a very steep learning curve. We are still recovering from the loss of our subs. As for checking facts I have before me a picture of submarines...

Your unit librarian should have them.

I love the new line vehicles. It took mere moments before we nicknamed ours the "Trawler" or "The Tuna Boat".

A proof is a proof and if you have no proof then it is not a proof. ;D

I remember being told that the 25 pdr traded range for barrel life, giving half the rounds of a 105mm before being shot out.

If the US is succeeding and Canada is failing I must be missing something. Our economy is growing and we are living within our means for the first time in ages, perhaps we might actually pay off the debt we have been carrying since WW1. I know a portion of Canadians would love to spend a fortune...

The JSF seems to be an interesting "concept" aircraft I just hope they figure out how to make it work as well as promised before it is old tech. 

I will keep my bayonet as it is light and never runs out of ammo/jams when clearing a trench. 

When you buy back time treat it like taking out a loan. If you pay off the "debt" at a faster rate you save yourself interest paid and thus pay less in total.

Show me the money. Then show me some high quality training programs for the reserves.

  I am really looking forward to getting the small pack. Then I will have a place to stuff the misc junk I need to do my job as well as the rest of a decent ammo load.

I am always shocked by how someone can stand up and say we should do (insert simple action here) and everything will be fine. If all of our problems were that easily solved they would have been solved a long time ago. The Canadian government has made some very poor choices regarding natives, and...

I wonder if the National Guard units ship everything that isn't bolted down to their battle schools every summer then hope it will be returned before Santa drops by? Of course not that would be foolish.

Guess that is why the Americans sent Marines to occupy Hawaii and the Philippines, to keep ratings in line aboard US ships. Sailing into a harbour will only get your empire so far.

The aircraft would require significant redesign in order to put them back into production and to recieve certification. Things like moving and upgrading fuel systems. We could however restore all of our airframes to like new for far less. Good enough for the owner of Oakley who has two Smells...

Last time they tried to lure me to the dark side I was told that as long as I "intended" to get a degree sometime in the "future" I could accept a commission in the Reserves. I would however be limited to a max rank of Captain until I received the degree.

R Nichols sells to the public and I have nothing but praise for the service I recieved.

People do odd things because they are people. Unless he is willfully acting against Canada and our national interests he is not a traitor. I can think of a great number of PQ politicians who should wear that title long before any Canadian soldier.
