List,
I apoligize for coming in to this conversation in the middle but I can‘t
stand this never ending debate about the inequality of reg and res force in
Canada. First of all you are comparing apples to oranges...the reg is reg
and the res is res.....they have different mandates, different jobs and
different lifestyles. It‘s almost like comparing firemen to
secretaries...of course firemen can put out fires better, i would hope so.
My point is that the res force do an outstanding job....almost as good as
the regs....with the time and equipment that they are given. Ponder for a
moment what would haappen to the reg force if they were suddenly given 10
of the training time and money that they are used to getting? I believe
they wouldn‘t be as efficient as the res force are now. I have worked
extensively with both, and I would choose a res force mcpl to work for me
over a reg any day....less attitude, more enthusiasm for his work, and 8
times out of 10, he has the required knowledge and experience to execute his
tasks to standard. Remember, res force is there because they chose to be
there, they want to do the best they can for you, reg force was tasked to
you....they have to be there, whether they like it or not. As for training
standards, they ARE the same...except reg force have longer to learn the
material.

I‘m sorry but the standards are not the same in the reserves as in the
regular forces. Again I am speaking from my point of view which is the
point of view of an infantryman. Again I wish that the standards were the
same but thats not happening. Example. How many soldiers that failed
their 13km march at the end of QL3 passed the QL3 course..........all of
them.
