    Duties of an Attending Officer

    Does anyone here know the dutues of an attending officer at a Charge Parade and if so could you outline them? (I searched and could find no reference to this material- so hopefully this isn't one of those many oft repeated questions.)

    New Math

    One of my great fears of my trade (Artillery) is math. My  skills are suspect. (How I passed the CFAT I'll never know) At least it is not as bad as seen on this clip. Mind you this vid does show why math is so damn confusing...

    Training for NCO's and Gen. Hillier's speech.

    Great Swag, and a great site.

    I just received my T-shirt and coin in the mail.  I can't believe my $30.00 can cover the cost of the coin and the T-shirt and still leave enough for this site to operate! (I guess I can always donate more to the cause.) Great stuff and a great site. Thanks

    CF Empty Hand Combat Time for Change?

    I noticed in the Army Electronic Library that the hand to hand combat information is pretty much Tae Kwon Do done in Khaki. I don't want to flame TKD, since there are some who can actually fight (they have to learn to keep their hands up and throw proper punches and leg kicks) ;) but given...

    Can anyone offer me an opinion on this magazine? I am considering a subscription but it is not available in any store in my area, so I cannot give it complete look.
