    My personal site layouts.. I need help

    #1!  ;D Number 2 is really cool too... So is number 3... But I'd have to say #1 is the coolest.  ;) (P.S. My vote counts as two, and you know it does!)

    Canadian Military Slang

    You can always trust a Riley to say something worthwhile.  ;D Dunno if this really counts here, but I have a terrible memory when it comes to names...... "Yeah, Warrant, Sgt. Whatshisface over in Dieppe Platoon said so..." I also find "thingie" to be an extremely useful word. "Go to the...

    Lifeguard badge???

    At the moment I'm taking Bronze Medallion. Does the above mean that if/when I finish Bronze Med I can ask for and possibly get a Lifeguard badge? I had always figured you had to go through all the courses to obtain the badge. Cheers, Lex

    Cam and concealment

    It always comes back to me, doesn't it?  ::) I suppose that if I were to teach cam and concealment I'd stress the fact that cam and concealment isn't just about painting your face and curling up behind a bush. There are lots of different factors and pointers that could give you away. I'd...

    You know its a bad day....

    I'd have to say that was a really, really low thing to do... I'd just say yes.... I mean, come on...  :o

    School Project about CF

    Coincidence, I wanted to write about the CF last year for my Heritage Fair project. I ended up doing it on the RHLI. This year I want to do a project on the JTF2. I was going to start a thread but I might as well write about it here. Does anyone have links/book titles of sources of information?

    sweaters

    Absolutely correct. When I was an avid runner, (two winters ago,) I'd do 10 km every other day... I wore long johns and then my stretchy running pants, spandex longsleeve shirt, windbreaker, hat, mits and something or other to cover my nose and mouth. You'll get hot, fast. You'll start to sweat...

    Happy Holidays! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

    Merry Christmas guys, (and gals!) ;D Remember, alcohol and driving don't mix well. If you're shitfaced, don't drive!  ;)

    PTE...

    There's no such thing as a stupid question. He was brave enough to ask, and that's reason enough to answer him honestly. Come on guys, you're all grown men and women, (well, if not, at least halfway there...) and you really shouldn't be bashing this kid just because he asked a question. He...

    The Shaving Superthread- All You Want and More....

    It's razor burn. Shave in the shower, shave often, use sensitive skin shaving cream... Sometimes I find using moisturizer after shaving helps alot. Good luck, Lex

    It's the abbreviation for the rank "Private".

    Cadets- What Would You Change?

    Whoa, didn't realise I'd stir up such a response. I'm not saying drill should be eliminated, heck, I like drill, but I think that cadets should have more chances to go out into the field and apply the skills they learned in the classroom. Of course I believe that drill is a way of instilling...

    Lexi got promoted!

    This is my 8th month in cadets... And I dunno how well I got on my green star testing... I haven't gotten it back yet. The weirdest part about it was that my CI was taking green star cadets who joined after Christmas and who had not gone to camp and stuck them in green star again. Myself, who...

    Lexi got promoted!

    Okay, so maybe I'm overreacting and blowing this way out of proportion but I was promoted to Pte. last night. That may not seem like a huge deal, but I'm thrilled, I was sure I wasn't gonna get the promotion.  ;D On top of that, my CO asked me to attend a ceremony at City Hall today in...

    Goverment Rates, and Entilement!

    Honestly, I know I probably have no say in this, but the guy's curious. Maybe he just wants to know. So why are you beating up on him? That's just unfair.  :-\ I'm sure Ian loves his job, but heck, if I was offered extra perks and ways to save money, I'd take them. I'm sure we all would. Cut him...
