Hey, at least you GOT a vest. Gotta love being the only unit on a brigade-level ex still in webbing. 8) Not that I'm complaining of course... :D

30 days?! Jesus...that's a whole month of your life spent on here. Think about it. ;D

Well would you prefer NOT having it?  ::)

Good luck!  :) And remember, it's all a game...

AFAIK it's if you miss 3 consecutive parade nights you're NES. (As in 3 consecutive monday nights, or whatever night your unit parades.) However, keep in mind you're signing up for 1 night a week, and 1 weekend a month. If you can't make that, then reconsider joining.

"...We sailed off to Gallipoli. And how well I remember that terrible day, How our blood stained the sand and the water. And of how in that hell that they call Suvla Bay We were butchered like lambs at the slaughter. Johnny Turk he was waiting, he primed himself well, He showered us with...

Don't even get me started on that.

Interesting. I suppose you're right, it's another one of those "trg" vs. "real-life" things, I guess. What you're told in training doesn't usually happen on operations. Thanks for clearing that up...

My apologies, I stand corrected. Slip-ons it is.  I don't know about you, but I sure wouldn't want to be captured with SIGNALS slip-ons...

AFAIK doesn't everyone going overseas get Canada epaulettes? I could be mistaken...

Razor story...refresh my memory...

I think it's just cause you're from an Ottawa unit, and you guys are bilingual and all that jazz. Everyone else outside of Quebec usually seems to have the English slip-ons.

Tell me about it, when I heard it snowed last summer we were all shocked. The summer before was HOT, got up to 50 degrees some days. And it rained like 3 times the entire summer. Freakish Manitoba weather...

Haha, you obviously have never sat through a week's lectures on antenna theory and another one on Office.  >:D

Agreed, nothing like watching the sun set at 11 o'clock at night. Even got to see the northern lights on occasion.

That's entirely the result of being in Shilo.  ;D
