Want to be a pathfinder? Get ready....140 Pounds by the end of the course (all mission essential kit). I‘m assuming that support weapons fall under that catagory as well.

Jason, just out of curiousity, how was a malfunctioning main your fault. Turns and tangles are the only problems that you can really be responsible for...the rest is up to the riggers...how did it malfunction? (I‘m not being skeptical, just curious) And the standards arent lowered officer...

Apparently there used to be a Pararescue course. Im not sure what the entails, but so long as theres jumping involved, I‘m game. If anyone has details on that course, please feel free...

Run like ****. If you can run 10k non-stop, at a reasonably quick pace, you‘ll be fine. If you wan‘t to push yourself, the front pack runs at a decent cross-country race pace for just over an hour on the average afternoon run (when you stop to do pughups, stay out of the ditch as best you...

Disregard

You forgot the most important one: The Queen‘s York Rangers- Celer et Audax (Swift and Bold)

Hey, hows it goin McMahon (Sorry if i F‘ed the spelling, i couldn‘t find my T-shirt, lol). MikeM, have we met?

Right on Garry, well put.

Now that i have your attention... This is just a little thing that I noticed while browsing the forums. Its similar to the whole "CADPAD" thing (where its actually "CADPAT"). OD, is Olive Drab. Olive is the colour. Drab is the shade/texture (not sure what you‘d consider it, so I‘ll refer to it...

Yeah, he‘s right, its very, very serious. No Duff, means somthing is really really wrong.

Yeah, go tell that to a rigger, they‘re Loggies, huge, and mainly ex CAR...see who wins that fight... Know the facts before you comment. Make informed opinions and you won‘t look like ______________. Figure it out.

Okay, lets set some things strait.... 1. Air cadets cannot do the course, it requires NSCE to get on it. This is not offered in air cadets (I love the idea of a pararescue course!). 2.Alot of people will lie about being airborne. Example: an "aquaintence" of mine told me he did his mock tower...

Perhaps Para? Yeah, no. Try:"except Para". It‘s the actual Reg. Force course that we do, so it definately transfers over (its the only cadet qualification that transfers over into the CF). There is no equivelency, you will have to do your BMQ. I have, however heard that if you are in the...

You may also want to get a thermal hose cover so that the water does not freeze in the line enroute to your mouth(it will always be exposed at some spot). I‘d also reccommend picking up a ‘flow valve‘? (not sure what its called), which will prevent any dripping from the bite valve (since its...

Sure, that could make sense ( It must have gotten screwed up this year as it was our adminO‘s first year on the course too).

Thanks 8541, I was just about to say that. 8451 knows his ****.

Some time ago, I read a document written to outline exactly how the Canadian military reached its present state. It suggested that there were several steps to destroying a Military and then gave examples of how the Canadian Govt. has done just that. Its a real eye-opener. I cannot locate this...

We actually had our fitness tests conducted by our CO in Fort York Armouries. All 3 of the officers on our course this year were Captains. I know that one of them was fully bilingual, though im not sure about the others. As far as I could tell, the CIC sends 1 officer with us on the actual...

Im with 337 Queen‘s York Rangers, in COA. We had 5 from COA go up, all passed. BTW, the person who PM‘d me, I dont have a digital camera or scanner, but I‘ll see what I can do. Try these: www.commando.org http://www.magicmouse.ca/wings42.htm http://ww2.isys.ca/army/para.html (Note...

Hi, I did the course this summer so i can give you up-to-date information. We‘re up at 5:25 in Connaught for morning PT. It consists of either the PT test, or a relatively long, extremely fast pace (near sprint!) with the usual stops for pushups and 5th point. Days are filled with concurrent...
