Hey, long time lurker, new in town.  Up for a meet if anyone else is. -Scott

Wainwright is a lot nicer now than it was when I arrived 5 years ago, if only because you don't have to drive to Lloyd twice a week to buy things.  The timmies and Canadian Tire (and Wal-mart) really helped it look up.  As far as a pub, the bowling alley just re-did their pub side, it's probably...

A new bump to and old thread, but I have to say it: This is the first time I've read this entire thread, and I've read your contribution to Outside the Wire. Piper, you're an inspiration to soldiers, present and future.  Whatever you do, keep writing.  -Scott

Great to see local boys getting at least some press for their sacrifice.

Is that what they were doing in wainwright?  I saw the crew, was wondering about this.  Right on, I'll be on the lookout for it.

That would cause some serious problems on a nav... oh, wait....THE hill... -Scott

I can see the logic behind it, re: claiming that requiring medication makes you unfit, but once you're in, they can proscribe it to you. It's simply the CF, as a full-benifits employer, insulating itself from people with pre-existing conditions, and paying associated medical costs.  They can...

Not directly related to this, but here in Wx our previous PMC instated a minute of silence at each mess meeting...I can't think of a more apropriate place for it. -Scott

Whatever happened to Paracowboy?  I'd love to see another ramble about tomahawks.

At one point I catalogued the "library" in the Sr. NCO's mess at my reserve unit, only to find things as old as cavalry manuals from 1870.  I kid you not.  They've since cleaned out the bookshelf, and I'm not sure what they did with all of the old literature.  Its amazing what you find in the...

Des, what will you and the fellas be doing in the Wain?  I'm here, and things aren't always all that interesting.  Throw me a PM if you want to get together for a pint.

I'm absolutely a huge fan of Top Gear.  I don't have the link on me, but if you're into cars, and like this guys style, I recommend that you do a Youtube search for the "Ariel Atom".  Coolest little car I've seen....well, ever, and his presentation is as good as ever.

I've been looking for this for a while.  I had a hard copy at one point, but can anyone link me to a DIN-site copy of the proper groundguiding signals, including w/ flashlights? Thanks -Scott

I received the same email for EBay.  They're getting clever, good thing I don't actually have an Ebay account.  I'm guessing the secret to the scam is the hyperlink they give you to "log in and perform the necessary steps" is actually some sort of keylogger?  Delete that if you think its giving...

We could name it something scary!  Like....MECHAGODZILLA!.  big, green, metal, whats not to love?  Oh, its taken.  Damn.

AAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA.  Thanks for that VG, and I'd like to nominate you to write the TPB Remembrace Day Special.

Is it just me, or does Layton's rhetoric really sound like he sees the problems with what he says, yet continues to say it?  This "unbalanced, no exit strategy" claim has been disproven time and time again, yet he doesn't even change his wording.  

Am I correct in assuming that the new boots are now available on Logistik?

I'll take a peek when I get to work in the morning, if this hasn't been answered by then.
