Condolences to family and comrades.  :salute: :cdn:

Club Terrace had the best new years eve parties.  The food at the restaurant downstairs wasn't bad either.  I lost my car for three days in Munchen  during octoberfest.  The most amazing thing about octoberfest?  How the hell do all those little women carry  that many large steins of Bier. 

How about the Adler Klaus country music Haus in Lahr.  The week long beach parties in the bar were famous.

Next to Rosie's was also the strip club Cherries.  The Madame, I mean manager, was Simone. ;)

Still my favorite holiday...

And a barracks box full of ice and green grenades.

More Lahr.  Meissenheim Beach.

How about walking from the Kasserne to the Flugplatz on Schwartzwald Strasse, stopping at every gasthaus on the way for a Kleins bier.  I don't think we made it half way back before having to call a taxi.  Man there were a lot of Gasthaus's in Lahr.

Trocedaros in Lahr. Base Defence Force.

Surprise, surprise most of the signatories to this despicable document belong to the sociology dept. I honestly can't think of good reason why these nimrods should be teaching our youth anything at all.  If they enjoy socialism so much let them live in a wonderful country like China, where they...

Cadets are not soldiers.  A cadet may learn a few "military " things like drill, but are not taught section tactics or anything else you need to know to be a soldier.  I would think reserve experience would count for more.  One is a youth organization the other is military, and a job.  :2c:

I stand corrected.  Don't get me wrong, I am very supportive of this idea.  I think it is a great opportunity for the COATS component to be be able to take advantage of the many years of experience these people would bring to us.  The more knowledge the better.

I  agree that it is unlikely we will see CIC NCMs at the corps level.  There are several reasons.  A lot of cadet corps are far outside any reasonable driving distance from a reg force or reserve unit.  Administratively, cadet corps are not set up to have NCMs on strength.  The only place I can...

About a week before the Olympics began I was flipping through my satellite radio channels and came upon CBC one.  They had an Olympic "activist" dispensing advice on how to get through security at Canadian customs. They dispensed advice on how to behave, what to wear, what not to wear, even...

RIP.  My condolences to family and comrades.  :salute:

Carbon tax is a dirty word out here in the west.  I don't think that idea will ever fly out here.

From the numbers I've been able to put together from the media, and you have to look hard, as for some strange reason there aren't a lot of stories covering the numbers of protesters Canada wide, there were less than 10,000 across the entire country.  I was at a hockey game in Edmonton the...

RIP  :salute:  My conolances to the families and comrades. :yellow:

Well I have relearned that the army does at times move at the speed of smell. ::) I agree that the process could use some streamlining.  There were several places in the process where things could have been sped up considerably.  Not having a qualified officer at the CFRC to do the initial...
