There is a lot of thought and detail within this thread... The question is, how do we make them listen? Is there a way to action this within DLR (Directorate of Land Requirements)? I know some of you are here... soooo? I will even volunteer to help design and trial this stuff.

Shirt - I don't really enjoy the front pockets, they bulge and get in the way. Perhaps a sleeker design might be nice. Maybe a different style of button/closure. Pockets on the sleeve would be nice, but what about summer dress? Oh, and I know that they're there for a reason... but DRAWSTRINGS...

I understand what a det 2 i/c is and does and to what extent. What I am trying to explore is what work up and pre-training would be appropriate (via current CTS/CTP) A career gun-line guy can be mentored quite well... it's the techs and the guys in the OP that I'm concerned about. I guess I...

I have questions, and perhaps the more experienced gunners can help me on this. Why is the det 2 i/c run the way it is? By this I mean that everything is a review rather than taught. I understand that gun drill is a very basic skill that we all have, but how exactly does that evolve into...

ewww kingston! I would have thought of Gagetown or Halifax...

When I was in high school, a friend and I put ceran wrap on all the teachers toilets... man that was funny!

another one for the ML - heli-deuce... and I totally forgot one -- (referring to meat heads) the price of meat has gone up so now we just call 'em bone heads.

Waterloo insurance offers a mil rate... (aka Guardsman Insurance etc) Definatly don't lease... if you drive alot like most Army people.. you'll pay big $$$ Offer your DDC and ask about your 404's. I know State Farm will at least look at your quals... if you give them a drivers abstract, your...

Avis is a really great place to rent a car, if your over 19 and have a credit card... they are a god sent, unlimited kms the works - they give a gov't rate too! Any hotel, as mentioned by pretty much everyone! When we did the Ice Storm (not to be confused with TO's snow storm) we got free coffee...

I was in the same boat a few years ago. Go to Whitehorse! You will never regret it, I guarantee it. The reserves will be there, you can usually do your BMQ and SQ through out the school year on weekends (which means extra cash) and next summer you would probably do your trades course. Actually...

We're all here to serve and support our country, to bad they don't support us.

Within my unit it is my job to sort out the unit advertising. This involves placing ads in Newspapers, on the radio.... whatever. So, I went through all the hoops I had to to get an ad placed into a local student newsaper (there are alot of hoops) Now, about a month or so after I would have...

Strike, I have never had  a problem with having my hair damp and in a bun for well, a day or so... sounds like an urban myth. As for bobby pins, never worn 'em... they just fall out. But with enough jel/goop... whatever, anyone can have a tidy hairstyle. cheers

I'm a chick, broad, female... whatever. I have long hair and am perfectly capable of putting it in a bun or tucked up french braid for the field. I personally have had no reason to wear my hair down in a braid. I can wear a helmet, crew helmet, toque, beret even that new neck gator. So why is...

There are some differing opinions on St Barbara, but there usually pretty similar. Some sites to check out... http://www.folkstory.com/articles/stbabs.html http://home.it.net.au/~jgrapsas/pages/st_barbara.htm http://www.catholic-forum.com/saints/saintb01.htm...

I'm gonna throw my hat in too. I honestly think that there could have been a PAFFO (Public Affairs Officer) around just to brief the troops on what's alright to say in front of the public. NOT telling them exactly what to say, just to stick to the basics and try not to swear (yeah it does...
