Go and buy extra DEU accoutrements from a kit shop or a surplus store. They'll only cost a couple bucks. Bring the extras with you when you wear your CF's. Spending 10 bucks can save you from getting a headache if you loose a pin 10 min before a parade or vip detail.
If you look there's two different topics on this thread. I couldnt find the orig topic. I typed Para in the search and it brought my to the Infantry forum.
Does anyone know where I can buy a Canadian soldier pewter statue here in Canada. Like the one you can buy in Bosnia or Kosovo. My KFOR one went missing.

Another thing is teamwork. I found this system works really well for inspections and uniformity. Two people irons ever ones shirts and puts them away. Two people polish boots. Two people irons all the pants. And one person goes to locker verifies the layout according the kit layout. etc, etc. ...
The one thing the army wants in a solider is one who can solve problems and who has time management skills. If you can find an easier, time effective and the safest way to complete a task. By all means use it. If can master this, you'll have no problems on any course you'll take in the future...
Here's a helpful hint that I learned on my 3's. Bring two toothbrushes, two toothpaste, two razors, and two shaving creams. Use one set once then put it on display for inspection and never use it or touch it again. Use the second set as your everyday set. It will save you time. Trust me.
Are they still in the system? I haven't seen them in years. They are great for a little heat during your 0100 to 0300 trench duty. But I don't miss the residue that it leaves under your canteen cup.
