When boots get dirty, they turn brown. Other than asphalt, nothing is really black at ground level in nature and coyote brown looks much sharper with the new CADPAT MT than black boots. There's also significantly more COTS options for brown boots out there due to all the time we spent in deserts...
I've been looking as well. No idea if its a Bde rule, a base rule or something someone made up. Couldn't find it in BGL381 which is where it should be.
Because we've built a culture of unfit, soft soldiers. We have ceramic training plates which are "dangerous" on the range so our troops can't even train to shoot with armor on properly. We constantly prioritize literally anything else during a work day other than PT, especially in CS and CSS trades.
Don't be fooled, saving face is the tactic here. They lose support they can't afford to lose in Quebec if they cancel this colossal albatross around their necks.
Looking back to the actual aircraft, Lockmart is now producing more F35s in a year than total Gripen E/F orders. Over 1200 aircraft and counting or orphan fleet, tough call.

China's not sanctioned. An Iran thats aligned with international norms would happily sell at market rates to them, which will likely raise their cost of doing business.
You missed the part when I said exped force. You can construct a largely civilian outfit sprinkled with uniformed members that maintain readiness to deploy. If theyre picked from their bases, there's no impact because you have a civilian backstop.
Ding ding ding.
Other than an expeditionary force, why? Why waste uniform PYs on a predominately Canada-based requirement? We do this with Firefighters, most bases have civilian firefighters and there's military members spread around to do the deployed part. What capability is Comd RCAF willing to go without...
If NSF fees being capped help a lot of people to be electorally relevant, the fact that we have an electorally relevant number of folks with negative or 0 bank account balances is also extremely relevant for the electorate, but not for sunshine and cheerleading Carney reason.
I have cleaned up and issued warnings to the thread of personal attacks and trolling other posters. Some posts that were not rule breaking went with it just as it was easier than deleting quotes.
We appreciate those that didn’t take the bait and tried to stay on topic. If long time forum...
We don't need to buy they're jets, but they're the best on the market and I'd rather not cut off our nose to spite our face to end up with crappy Gripens no matter how many lies Saab sells.
