Thanks Canada!

[Bigmac]

      I was googling for some info today at home with my morning coffee when I stumbled upon an article from Apr this year. The article was on military.com site and written by David Meadows. I am sure many may have read it but I want to post it here for all to peruse again. It will make you puff your chest out and feel proud to be Canadian. Enjoy!

Here is another U.S. site that has some praise for Canadian soldiers in Afghanistan:

It's nice to know that we are America's little helpful northern brother. 

I know these authors mean well, but the Canadian Forces do not need Americans to tell them what a fine job they're doing.  ^-^

Well, the latter site's article was well written, complimentary, and - wait for it - written for Americans, not the CF...  It also used the phrase "little brother" to refer to the typical stereotype, not as an actual descriptive term...
