While I support both, I think you can support the troops but not the mission. The missions are politically driven and politics being the den of debauchery it is, will not always assign moral, ethical and legal missions. The troops are our own, volunteers with homes lives and families and don't...

does the 130J have the flip over rail system? We should get the airbus just for that fact...i hated putting in and removing the dang rails on the hercs.

lol..wouldn't be the first time....this week...thanks for the info, mover1..appreciate it...nothing concrete for me yet. I have been advised my file is moving through the various departments, unhindered and was in Toronto this week for an Air Factor. I passed all the medical stuff, so it...

So, if I re-enroll in Winnipeg, I get posted to Ontario. I sell my house in Winnipeg but opt not to buy a permanent residence at my new base until all my initial and refresher training is done. How long can my junk be stored at public expense and where? I read CFAO 209-28, which is probably...

Weren't those great years....'they' ordered a pay freeze on teh military and then voted themselves a huge increase...politicians....shoulda become one.

i remember on FTX in many a place when the A10's, cobras or other such machine would come in....not only heart warming, but fun as all heck to watch.

stomach is the last place it will be noticable. That's why it's easy to have a nice vascular set of arms, but not a 6 pack...btw..it's not a beer belly I'm sporting...it's the engine for my love machine...

Would you mind pm'ing me if there is?

are you sure they didn't get mailed directly from the PQ offices? PQ MNAs refuse to applaud soldiers Resulting remarks set off raucous debate Kevin Dougherty CanWest News Service Thursday, June 21, 2007 QUEBEC -- The Quebec National Assembly erupted into shouting matches Wednesday after...

The FE CM was through winterpeg this week and confirmed that intent is to load Cpl FE's on the C17 in an LM, servicing position. Wonder how you'd get your wings then, if it's your first FE post.

ah, thanks. Yep, I purchased my infantry mess dress prior to 1986. My SWO did indeed say that I did not need to purchase new mess dress, but I wouldn't describe him as at all kind...lol.

Does anyone know the actual interpretation of the regulation regarding mess dress from other branches of service? Specifically, I was with the RCR, LOTRP'd to an Air Trade, left the forces and am on my way back in. I know that after my LOTRP I was still allowed to wear my RCR mess dress. What...

what do you mean out of context?? that's what i meant...lol. too funny. I did notice the 'lack of clarity' when I was writing it, but thought...what da heck....

I also didn't learn how to start a fire without a gallon of gasoline until I left the military. People would say, " I thought you were in the infantry?" I'd respond "Fires break light discipline, when we light them, we make them big because at that point, it won't matter who see's it."

to close with and destroy the enemy....or that's what I thought when i was 17. Now that I'm trying to wiggle my way back in for a second stint it's more for duty, honour, country. That kind of thing.

Kraft Dinner, you got Kraft Dinner? What time is supper?

Hey, thanks. As for the whole tattoo thing. I don't remember off hand what the old reg read like. But I know from experience that neck, face, ear tattoo's were always a no-no. Piercings, exept on the ear lobe, for women, that would show could not be worn on duty. I even remember a young lady...

Wonder if I should have gotten one tattoo'd on the first, second or third time I got married? During the process of my re-enrollment the Med Tech very carefully scrutinized my tattoo's. All which were applied while I was in the military. He also asked about my body piercing and if I'd be...

My hat is all I'm getting...mover1's 9'r higher is still out of town.
