I think it would be practical if it was designed to hold 100 rounds, enough to eliminate the teaser belt and be sustainable until the number 2 gets the ammo out and ready, provided you can get that feed chute out of the way.

Dont worry Mase, youre going to get to experience the hot weather rucks on dp1 infantry too.

I agree that there isnt to great of a training value shooting the 100 rounds, but it does allow the troops to put all of their skills learned on the weapons to use. I dont think that this is a waste of ammo when lots of rounds somehow never find their way back into circulation.

While it could be beneficial to join a trade that relates to your civilian experiences, the army trains you/ retrains you their way on every aspect of the trade regardless. I personally enjoy being able to do something that is different in the reserves than what I do in my civilian work. I'm...

So if none of them are trained on the weapons, they are going to have them do their defensive ftx with just C7 trenches and hasty attacks with no support elements?I guess the time is better spent with power points and jacking the troops up all evening.

This is the first ive heard of that, source?

Brihard is correct. Many people had to do both mods during the summer that just passed even though they completed SQ the summer before. I personally think they should have run one more traditional dp1 for the people who completed SQ the year before, and implement the new program for the...

I have worked with a guy who is also an elevator mechanic, who tells me that he was a reg force field.engineer many years ago. He was able to do quite well for himself in the civvie world. Many people in his family were in the elevator industry which provided him the opportunity, however he...

I didnt know him personally, but have quite a few friends who did. Sad news, RIP.

I was making some pretty good gains prior to going on course, but after two months of training I will probably be back close to my original weight...

Yes.

Well im assuming that the OP is fairly new if she does not know to salute, so I imagine it would be CADPAT which is even more out of place.

Or just go in civvies.

The only way you are realistically going to become a dog handler is by wprking your way through the ranks of an organization that utilizes them, police, CBSA, SAR organizations etc. Even then it will not be certain.

Then apply to a contracting company?

I hope that this does not keep continuing, it is a shame to see fundraising events such as this being cancelled.

Have you gone to school for firefighting? While being in the military may be looked upon favourably by fire departments, it is still extremely unlikely for them to hire you if you do not possess the required certifications, e.g NFPA I and II, Proboard, OFM etc. These are obtained through...

Yes they combined the two. All the infantry troops that did BMQ-L last year will have to do the full 8 weeks this summer.

If they have a PAL and are hunting or at a civilian range like everyone else.

How can you go without a cell phone on BMQ?! How else would you be able to upload hero pics to facebook?? It is imperative that the world sees you aiming your empty C7 at a wall in the bathroom!
