[deedster]

Anyone planning to visit Queen's Quay this weekend? 

 

[Retired AF Guy]

Its here in Kingston for a couple of days. Unfortunately, there is no place for it to dock here in Kingston. They are having some tours going out to vessel, plus they have a display down by city hall that includes a LAV III.

Just got back.

~ psst ~.....we call that green one a "G Wagon"

Funny how we take foreign words and make them our own.  "G Wagon" (sic) is short for "Geländewagen" is basically German for SUV.  Literally, it means "Cross Country Vehicle".  We should name it the same as everyone else does: Wolf!

Journeyman: did you have to take the Wolfe Islander III out to see the Halifax?  Or were there runs out to it with Zodiacs or something?

The green one? You mean it's not red? Oy, I must be colourblind. Sure explains my choice of clothing!
