EITS, you can purchase just the leather to retrofit the newer style plunger cap, http://www.canadiantire.ca/en//pdp/coleman-replacement-pump-cup-back-up-plate-0762335p.html or product number #076-2335-2 at Canadian Tire. I bring these sets out to the field with me to retrofit my section's stove...

I've seen someone with a 24 character name tape, don't sweat it.

The sock monster always takes his share, velcro or not!

Resident of Limoges as well? I assumed it was the annual aerial pot sweep through the Larose forest, but I could definitely be wrong. I'm just on the edge of the forest and it has been a hive of aerial activity lately.

Pl WO or Comd is more likely, we're well staffed in comparison to most reserve units!

This is useful even as a reservist MCpl. Thanks for sharing Infanteer.

The Cameron Highlanders of Ottawa kit shop also carries blue hackles. Are you looking for a fuller plume (sticks out farther from behind the cap badge) or flatter (crests only a cm or two)? I may have some of the full plume one lying around, but the flatter ones (that I prefer for my balmoral)...

Any info on the transition from current PLQ Mod 1-4 to the new system? I'm away from DWAN.

Looks like LSL is up for a little bit of a refit. Perhaps an earlier move to Carling? http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/fire-louis-st-laurent-building-1.3546556

You may not have boots, you may not have a camouflage uniform that can hide the type and colour of your undergarments, and the grass may not be greener, but at least it will be "noticeably thicker" on the cap badge. Oh, by the way, pay up, that thicker grass doesn't pay for itself! /sarcasm

Given the yellow and reflective bottom, I'm guessing you got a z-lite sol (http://www.mec.ca/product/5027-423/therm-a-rest-z-lite-sol-sleeping-pad-unisex/?q=z-lite).  Thermarest, and the parent company Cascade Designs actually does a lot of work for the US military and generally has military...

The IUR is pretty front heavy, and while it is very nice, I prefer the standard SA15.7. If you intend on adding a rail, then cost wise you may be better off with the IUR but I like the look of the 15.7 with a KAC RAS on it. Your particular use case will determine which way you should go, but the...

USSOCOM is currently seeking a replacement for them. Sources: http://soldiersystems.net/2015/11/09/ussocom-evaulates-replacement-for-eotech-sights/ http://soldiersystems.net/2015/09/30/ussocom-issues-safety-use-message-eotech-enhanced-combat-optical-sights-plus-goings/

There has even been a lawsuit where L3 paid out in the realm of 26M to settle. The days of seeing EOTech on USSOCOM rifles are done. The anecdotal side says that this wasn't an issue before L3 took over the company so earlier ones would be good to go according to some.

In a bit of a surprise, the new helmet contract won't be going to Revision, nor will it have a built in NVG mount, but it will have a 23% reduction in weight. It seems to retain the existing strap used on the CG634 and have a slightly different profile than the CG634 (though very similar to the...

No issues here, iPhone 6, iOS 9.1 Beta 4

BinRat, is that for both versions of the boots? For two pairs per? I'm not on DWAN at the moment so I cannot see if it is in the links posted. Thanks

Didn't the US offer some in the mid 90's along with some M1's for nothing but a song but the CF refused on the basis of wanting to produce replacement parts locally?
