Ain't that the truth!!.

They also do the SQ here in Gagetown.

When did that happen clasper?. The reason I ask is I used to be a member of the Brockville Rifles, and when I left to join the Regs in '97 we were still our own entity and not a company of the PWOR.

Not necessarily, when I transfered from reserves to regs, the only reason I had to do my QL3 was that I went a different trade. And some of the guys I know that transfered res - reg in the same trade didn't have to redo QL#.

Just make sure the guys in the turret duck when you speed up though, some grunts like using our vehicles for target practice.    :o   :tank: :fifty:

Al speaks the truth, I asked to go RCD and they sent me to the Strats. Have you started warping... i mean shaping impressionable young officer wannabes' minds on the DP1 AOCC yet Al?

CER= Combat Engineer Regiment CFSME=Canadian Forces School of Military Engineering not sure but I think CFOCS=Canadian Forces Officer Candidate School

Connaught Ranges isn't a base in itself, I believe it falls under Ottawa.

The same one that became the first CO of LdSH(RC), and who the base in Edmonton is named after.

ANd just in case some wise old Corporal like myself tries to pull your leg, the  four guys in the canoe on our cap badge are NOT Huey, Louie, Duey and Percy Verance.  :o ;D

A LITTLE bit grey?????

But it's also my intention not to fool anyone and let them think I'm one of those old grey haired guys still in uniform, mumbling about the good old days. No, you're one of those old grey haired guys in civvies, mumbling about the good old days.  ;) ;D

Just a civilian my a**, you probably know more about whats going on than half the armoured people up there in Wally World with you Lance.

12eRBC just did their last exercise on tanks here in Gagetown about a month ago and they held a parade to say goodbye to their tanks. Here at the school we are going down to 8 tanks, the rest are either going to war stocks or the CMTC in Wainwright.

I was in a School Indoc Day, when the Commandants cell phone rang and he went outside to answer it, when he came back in he told us that a plane had just flown into the World Trade Center.

W Bty is still in the K-Lines, but so are parts of 4 AD and the Armoured School

Recce41, Are you talking about Mike Mulholland from down in the K lines?. It's nice to see that someone is finally going to put him to work.  ;D

The Strathconas have a bunch of vehicles that they restored into runners. 4 Ferrets, a Centurion, a Stuart, 1 or 2 Shermans, a Lynx, a military Harley, 3/4 ton and a 5 ton wrecker. They use the Ferrets to carry the Guidon Party on big parades.

The Strathcona Restoration Troop in Edmonton has a working 3/4 ton that they restored.

That's what Bravo and Delta are for Garry
