As per the DLR slides on sharepoint, the FS rifle will have better accuracy, and an effective range at the individual level out to 600m (? I can't remember the number right now, I can check when I am back at work). The GS rifle will be slightly less accurate than the FS, but still more accurate...

-This initiative is brought to you by the Council of Honourary Colonels Joking aside, I don't think it will be anything related to pay. A couple months ago the CDS stated that details on the pay raise weren't coming until the fall. I think the announcement will be that the government is going...

Scott taylor frequently has the dumbest opinions on nearly every military topic. His proposed solution to fix the CAFs struggle to train what it intakes is to introduce conscription, and intake more people.

A few things. Cost is number one. If the Forage or Service Cap become a mandatory issued item, the cost of headwear goes up, therefore the budget for service dress uniforms needs to increase, or savings need to be found in other uniform components (gabardine moves from issued to optional...

IBMG is a standard course for reserve infantry units. IBMG also includes map and table firing. Most units try to put all their new Pte/Cpls through it. I know in my regiment, we do famil on the SF kit and C2 sight at least once a year. We try to shoot with the SF kit on at least one range, but...

Orders of dress is a tertiary duty I've been lumped with. The patrols with shoulder boards and Sam Browne belt/cloth belt is called Patrols Undress 1D and in this case is worn by members attending the parade but not participating in it. Typically this is the person who is leading a prominent...

He definitely has an agenda. But about 1 in 15 of his ATIPs are interesting.

The rumint on this has prompted my first ever post in 3 years of lurking. I have been keeping an eye on this project because I hate the current army service dress and I have had the chance to talk to a couple guys on the project. There is currently no talk of switching berets to any colour...
