    Women in U.S. infantry (USMC, Rangers, etc. - merged)

    Too bad this doesn't address the fact that standards for women and men are different pre-selection for RASP (Ranger Assessment and Selection Program). As I've said before, sure they'll say they have the same standards to complete a course as any person standing next to them, but don't doubt for...

    The Land Operations Temperate Boots (LOTB)

    If I had 2 dimensional feet, I might buy into the belief that 101 flavors of mondopoint sizing is adequate on providing people proper fitting footwear, but it's not. There is something seriously wrong with the product we're being offered when I struggle to be provided with footwear that fits...

    BMQ Regular Force 2005 - 2017 [Merged]

    You have a whopping 3 weeks under your belt, you haven't even gotten to the physical stages. It's death by power point because you've only been exposed to less than 1/4 of what the CF has deemed "basic". New training? You haven't even gotten through enough to determine old from new. You're in...

    PERs : All issues questions...2003-2019

    Hopefully this will assist board members to pick the best candidates for promotion in trades where as few as one or two ready's put you in the window.

    That book is written by a convicted sex offender and pedophile. It's a fabrication.

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    I've spent plenty of time discussing the science. However it's all too often rejected because it doesn't conform to the latest news article you and people like you read on forbes or whatsupwiththat. Go back and see how many sources I've referenced throughout the last dozen or so pages, then...

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    Care to share a reference that puts the average temperature of the globe at 7 deg Celsius higher 300 years ago than it is today? Best of luck in that search. I'm not cherry picking anything, I'm pointing out the correlation between the advent of fossil fuels and temperature increases never...

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    No, we're not. We're significantly higher. With any luck, you'll find a new argument to regurgitate that hasn't been discussed and debunked ad nauseam in this very thread.

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    I see a trend upwards that is consistent with the rise over the last 150+ years. It's not as aggressive as it has been in the past, but as we're continually setting new record annual highs, it's not dismissable as unchanged. With China exploding as the world's industrial superpower with poorly...

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    The only issue I take with that article is the claim of no warming since 2002. That and the claim that there is an inconclusive correlation between co2 and temperature rise, again claims which do not match up to others findings. Overall though, it's nice to see that even the deniers are...

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    Ignorance is often mistaken as the strongest weapon in the denier arsenal, no sense arguing against it.

    Camming up the Thermarest

    Spray cans are just paints with thinners. If you get something safe for plastics, there's no reason it would harm foam.

    Help with pull ups

    I'd be more concerned with why you have such disproportionate strength, and stop focusing on one particular movement. Pull ups will find their way into PT, you need to be able to get youeself above a bar. Are you severely overweight/underweight? I don't know of any reason beyond a physical...

    CAF Combat boots policy 2005-2018

    Appreciate the update to the thread. I'm definitely one of these people who is in between sizes, but as a result to shortages in the supply system making my size unobtainable. I'm curious what responsibility for my own comfort entails. My own purchased insoles, thicker socks, sucking it up...

    Having a hard time deciding after my offer.

    The headaches of trying to get the trade you want prior to joining are much smaller than the ones you'll face when you get in and try and move. Right now you're simply being told no from one direction, once in if your trade goes red you can expect to being essentially told no from both the trade...

    CAF Combat boots policy 2005-2018

    I'm going to take a stab at it and say these two statements apply to my current situation. I've had my feet measured, supply is telling me that a boot they have in stock should fit my feet however it feels too tight. I ask for a wider size, they say it's not available in stores or depo. A...

    Water purification in emergencies.

    If you have something which reduces the footprint and weight of an already currently used product by such a large margin, and your system works....why post here? To me it seems like this should be an easily marketed device, especially if you're willing to sell the patent. I smell a kitchen...

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    You don't seem to get how this works, and I'm not putting in the effort to source methods for you when you've been unwilling to look yourself. My point is that your lack of knowledge is not reasonable grounds to deny the science. I don't pretend to have a comprehensive knowledge of biology...

    If the best argument you can make is to deny the abilities of science to with relative accuracy determine the conditions of the world only a few centuries ago, hit the back button.
