Hey, what's up? I was here as a young whippersnapper cadet, then an infantry reservist until '07, and now sworn back in 18 years later. What did I miss?

I used the Search button, but couldn't find any posts regarding attachment to another unit.  I hear that you can parade with another unit if you are staying away from your home unit (i.e. for University, etc.).  Does anyone have any information on how this works such as any regulations on period...

I am considering joining the British Army. I have looked into it and am able to join, except I have to get a certificate (or something) that states that I have no service liability to the Canadian Army. I have signed up for 3 years in the Reserves (Jan. 2002), so do I have to wait for that...

I lead a modification for the upcoming game Half-Life 2. We are going to feature some Canadian weapon models and want to include as much detail as possible. For the C7 model, the skinner is Dutch and also can‘t find detailed photos of the C7 on the left side to see a proper serial number...

Hi, geez I haven‘t posted here in a while, but something has been on my mind since then. In many photos of the PPCLI in Afghanistan, a lot of the soldiers are using the C8. Why is it that some do, some don‘t. Is it solely based on preference? There is a great mix of C7A1, C7, C7 w/M203...

I would just like to inform you all that you can watch the Queen‘s Presentation of the Argyll‘s new colours live today at 1430 on CH (Hamilton local TV station). If you don‘t get that channel, I am sure that a national news channel might have highlights or maybe even live coverage. I am in the...

Tomorrow night I am being sworn into the Army. I have a few questions about it: What does this process involve? What do I wear? Will I be issued my kit the same night? I am going to be doing my QL2 and QL3 Infantry this summer at Meaford.

Well, I am finally old enough to join the reserves, tomorrow night I am filling out the application so that by the time June comes, I will have 16 credits and don‘t have to wait until January 2003 until i attend Basic Training. Are there any tips you guys have about the very start? As in...

I want to jon the infantry as a career, but all my relatives are telling me to go to university. I just tell them that my job won‘t require it, so I won‘t. My step-uncle went to RMC and is a retired Lt. Col, so he is trying to convince me above all. I just don‘t want to be an officer. I want...

I read an article in the Hamilton Spectator a while ago that the Argylls won a bronze medal in the Cambrian Patrol. They were the first Ontario Reserve unit to win a medal and finish (or something like that). Can anyone tell me more about it or if you were in it. I kind of want to create a...

An CI at my corps had the book "The Warrior". Where can I get a copy??? That book is my unseen bible. I only saw a couple pages before almost fainting because of it‘s information. Can someone maybe sell me a copy? Or tell me where to get it? thanks

Since NATO said that the war would conducted by them, what would Canada‘s commitment be? Would we send all reg force regiments and possibly reserves or would they pull a Gulf War?

Is there a regular regiment that has a pipe band. I heard that RCR did, but I don‘t know if they still do.

By any chance, does anyone have any sounds of the C7, C9, and C6 firing on their computers? If you do, plz let me know and I will give you my new e-mail.

Have any cadets here ever been on an exercise with their affiliated unit? My CO promised me that we will be going, but in September. I trust him, but I have heard about that it is against the rules, and I have heard it is not. Also, what do the reserves/reg force guys think about cadets...

My cadet corps‘ parent regiment, the Argylls, had recruiting and had a Coyote for the public to view. I always thought that why do we have the Coyote for recce? It would be loud, too loud for close recce. Do its operators go on foot for recces closer to the target? This has always been a...

I think there is trouble brewing here. If the tow countrys clashed in a war, what impact would it have on our military? Would we go to war? Albainn Gu-Brath

Recently at cadets we took a Fieldcraft test. If we passed, we get to wear a lanyard. I got 122% on the test :D (2 bonus questions), and I don‘t know how to make a lanyard. We can either find out on our own or wait a long time for lessons. Does any one know how to make a lanyard or a place...
