    Jon-362, I'm in the midst of writing up an informative PM......... Check your inbox. Regards

    If it is written, then it's true. Toronto Star says new attack helicopters.

    Fighter Puke...............  I'm not lookin' to pick a fight here, but it would help if you'd throw a little more info on your profile to allow members to see what experience you have and a little of what you've done. The more complete the profile, the more credible your posts become. BTW, I...

    Married soldier found guilty of beating his date with tire iron

    That was a good post Red 6.  It merely sets the stage for public opinion to turn against the mission in A-Stan as a breeding ground for turning our brave men and women into sociopaths who will return to cities and towns across Canada and start taking out the populace with tire irons.  PTSD or no...

    Dissention in the ranks? Don’t go where IEDs are?

    On a smilar note WRT the strategic corporal.......... Don't believe it's a mere coincidence that quite often, Cpl Riggins is being interviewed by the media. Media plugs know that Privates and Corporals are more apt to speak exactly whats on their mind as they usually don't have that much time in...

    Tim Hortons in Theatre Merged Thread (in AFG, no plans to preposition)

    That is a good idea............ Just go to the counter, order 10 large double double's and tell them to hold the coffee.  Then take your 10 mint condition cups and fire them up on e-bay. Guarentee they make at least a 500% profit on what you paid for them. Regards

    Occupation Badge requirements

    As was stated earlier, us armoured types have a very grey area on this one.  With us having no sort of Fives whatsoever, the general acceptance I've seen is when guys have their PLQ under their belt, they put up the tank and crown.  Regards

    11 Apr 2007 - MCpl Allan Stewart, Tpr Patrick Pentland, RCD

    Extreme heat in army tanks endangers troops; forces use tank blanket to keep troops from baking

    I'm sure it is a let down for the boys, but at least there's the solace in knowing better equipment is coming.  I'm sure the Strathcona's crewing the C2's will carry on with what they have in hand. "PERSEVERANCE"  ;D Kidding aside, they are professionals and I'm sure they'll adapt and get the...

    Senators owner plays Santa with gifts for troops

    A classy move by a classy man from a classy organization.  Despite being an hour and a half away from CFB Petawawa, the Ottawa Senators organization has been very good to the soldiers from 2 Brigade.  Hats off to Mr. Melnyk & the entire Senators organization. The play-offs beckon; GO SENS GO!

    Contemplating releasing, seeking advice

    With all the points you have listed that favour release, I say go ahead and release.  If these issues are weighing you down, they are probably going to make you a less effective soldier, and by the sounds of it, you seem to take your duties as a soldier seriously. Secondly, the longer you delay...

    Military sets up video-phone link to Afghanistan

    I'm a tad confused........... I recall this service being available back in 2005 when I was there. Am I out to lunch or is this something entirely different than what we had? I don't see the difference......... Regards

    Would I be pushing my luck?

    If they haven't yet supplied you with either ballistic glasses w/ prescription inserts or safety glasses, then it should be a non-issue.  You are in the field, it's up to you to decide what pair of glasses you are going to wear. (Provided that the CF has not issued you the proper kit) Regards
