    No more G.I. "Joe"-Caffeine Gum-Article

    I don‘t see the benefit of this gum. As anyone who has taken caffeine pills knows it may keep you awake but it doesn‘t keep you sharp.

    Individual Meal Pack (IMP) [Merged]

    My first taste of IMPs was in 1985. Whoever came up with the bright idea of putting a tube of butter in there should have gotten a smack upside the head. The stuff was rancid and we were told never to eat it, I think it may have even been an official memo. I pocketed a lot of cash eating cold...

    Canadian Reserve Soldiers as extras

    What kind of joker are you? You know that isn‘t true. I left my snowshoes propped up outside the igloo last night, I hope they are still there. I just put on a pot of whale blubber for my friends who are coming over. We‘re going out to hunt polar bear.

    Individual Meal Pack (IMP) [Merged]

    Chiclets were the best part. Everything else was edible but preference was based upon a sliding scale of how hungry I was and how long I‘d been eating IMPs. Ham Omelettes were a good money maker. There was always someone willing to pay you $5 to eat a Ham Omelette cold and then drink the juice. :D

    Sigs Question

    Even though it is an Army trade you could still be posted to a unit in any branch.

    Sometimes MAT Techs are also called upon to fabricate a ball and chain for a stag party. :cool: :D

    Canadian vs. US Terms

    What the he11 are you smoking? Unless things have changed drastically in the last few years it was always reffered to as a canteen.

    Chest thumping time

    I put my bayonette through the back of this guy‘s hand... only problem is that the guy was me.

    Paper targets

    Do any of you have pictures of the paper targets used on the range? Even a link to a website that does would be fine.

    George Bush is going in-Iraq War

    Honestly I don‘t agree with the reasons that the US says they are in Iraq. Frankly I think they are being purposely deceptive. However, I do believe that the reason they are really there is because they hope to change the dynamic of US-Arab relations. By going into Iraq and creating a...

    Sea King

    The last time a Sea King crashed was two weeks before you posted this thread. Do you watch the news much? The fingers were "in the pie" for the Sea Kings 40 years ago. It is well past time that they were taken out of service. By your logic the Air Force should still be flying 707s. :rolleyes:

    Wrongful death suit against American pilots.

    This was my first thought but I wasn‘t sure if I was the only one who felt this way.

    Wrongful death suit against American pilots.

    I just saw this on the news. The parents of Pte Green are launching a wrongful death suit against the US pilots. What are your thoughts on this? http://edmonton.cbc.ca/template/servlet/View?filename=ed_ppcli20030213

    The Thug bullies cabinet ...PM scolds MND about Iraq-Article

    Yeah but the unfortunate thing is that the people in Ontario and Quebec who keep voting the Liberals in will most likely do the same again. Not like any of the other parties are any better either.

    NEW CANADIAN FORCES SITE

    What a joke. The first thing you see is a picture of pencil pushers. Join the military so you can be an office worker. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    When Was the Great War Referred to as World War I

    It was also called The Great War because at the time (between WWI and WWII) everybody thought that there would never again be war on such a scale. Obviously they were wrong.

    Steven Staples & Company

    Perhaps if we got rid of health care and the military and invested all of that into dental care we could scare them off with the flash of our sharp white fangs. :evil:

    Why Not Canadian Amphib/Marine Capability? (merged)

    Thanks. I guess since our Navy has always been defensive there really has been no need for Marines. However I was thinking that Marines might be useful for defence in some of the more remote reaches of the Canadian coastline since many if not most areas are extremely rugged and only accessible...

    Report Says Pact to Allow US Troops to Operate in Canada

    You‘re god damned right it would matter. We are not the same as Americans, we may watch their TV but that doesn‘t make us the same. The core Canadian value system is fundamentally different. This move by the government has nothing to do with national security. It is all about covering their...
