"Give me some sugar, baby." Hell yeah, I'm surprised too...though Army of Darkness is more of a "hilarious" movie (like Shawn of the Dead) than Evil Dead 1 and 2.

Some names for the MLVW... "MLicopter" - when your regt is so poor that you do "Chalk" drills on an ML UAPC - "Un-Armoured" Personnel Carrier Baggage Terminal - when travel order is left on an ML

Tiger Tactical's Operation Vest (despite mixed reviews) seems like a great alternative...TT even used to have an interesting CADPAT repro of the British Battle Vest that looked really well built (although most of the pockets were around the waist like Webbing, no biggie as long as you figure out...

"Mock" Dog - field hot dog: you take a hot rod, IMP bread and ketchup...put it together and...Mock Dog! (Yuck) sandbagging it - essentially you're dogging it during training

Jack Nicholson's character (Jack Torrence) is essentially the reason to watch the movie, especially when he snaps near the end (creepily convincing.) :o

I know I'm gonna get flamed for this, but... What about units that don't allow you to buy LBVs? What about reservists that have to go overseas? I know, some might say "Meh, you're reservists, it's not like you'll be in harm's way like the Regs" or "quit yer b#tchin' ya spoiled weekend warrior"...

"Can't sleep...clown will eat me!" - Bart Simpson

When it comes to horror, I just love watching Stanley Kubrick's version of "The shining." The book by Stephen King kept me up at night; but Jack Nicholson as a psycho killing his family...disturbing yet awesome! "Here's.....JOHNNY!" ;D

I know that...(except for the spelling)...but this is the common usage I've seen with it.

They'd be correct...if it weren't for the whole "having to win the firefight" stuff we do during any knid of assault... :threat:

"BASE Hot" = basically, you've been on base for so long that girls get a lot prettier in civvy land (all of them) Example: Soldier 1: "So how 'bout that new chick workin at the Cannex..." Soldier 2: "Well, she's "Base Hot"...I'd have at her..." RCR                            = Run Chicken Run...

BMQ - Regiment - 5 mags and EIS (no blanks or pyro at all) SQ and DP1 INF(a.k.a BIQ)  - LFCA TC Meaford - 4 mags + EIS with Combat Load (plus PL pyro, comms, or other essentials as required) The sad part was, even though Riflemen only carried 4 mags, we were constantly getting in firefights on...

...time to hit up the CTS E-Mail and send them some ideas... ;D

;D LMAO  :D On my SQ 2 some odd years ago, we only got issued "4" mags per rifleman!  Plenty of room for "chocy bars" and "platoon pyro..."

kthx

The same sling that is issued with the C7...at least it was when I last worked in Meaford.

I don't know exactly; I'm just recalling what I was told: it's some sort of "doctrine" for how we should carry weapons (edged and projectile) in public. Things like how you should wear a Buck Knife with your uniform, not pointing your rifle at civilians in any manner, just little things like...

...at least it will if put on a C8. If you want a better way of toting it, just run the issued sling through both slots in the C8 retractable butt and make a complete hoop with it; then sling it over both shoulders and close up the butt. Easier shown than written, but it works good.

Strictly opinion, but aren't there some sort of rules for this in a "Public Relations Act?" I was told about this when my unit's Wpns Tech saw me walking in the Armoury with a US Becker Engineer knife strapped to my webbing. If the Public Relations Act (assuming it's real) is this strict on...

...and they also work good at cleaning Carbon out of weapons, especially the '6 or the '9s. ;D
