    The Agent Orange and Its Repercussions Thread

    The VAC were contacted by CBC and somewhat like the past two years have decided to remain closed mouthed on this subject. I believe (and I am paraphrasing here from someone else’s second hand knowledge) The VAC stated that “this topic was too political for them to participate”. But in my...

    The Agent Orange and Its Repercussions Thread

    The word Atrocity is not being used to describe anyone in the Military. It is however being used to describe the outcome of poorly thought out Government defoliation program that took place at CFB Gagetown. There may not have been and intent on anybodies part when the spraying first took place...

    The Agent Orange and Its Repercussions Thread

    And what the heck does " the government should reasonably have known that would result when it was being used ," have to do with it. It was done to soldiers while they were in the forces and that should be all the proof needed.

    The Agent Orange and Its Repercussions Thread

    That's the whole point, because we don't die quickly enough for everyone we have no clame. The problem isn't so much the dieing but the many years of illnesses.

    The Agent Orange and Its Repercussions Thread

    Quote from George Wallace Nov, 2nd. 2005 It looks to me like you are looking for a conspiracy where there is none.  Many Newspapers, especially small ones, will empty out their basements of their old copies.  They try to find a Museum or Archives that will accept them.  In this case, you are...

    Whats new in Recruiting? Gen Hillier's thoughts. Options for improvement.

    Also just a question. Would there be any point of putting the training (Depot) back to the own battalions as in the 60's? Wolsey Barracks use to run a depot Course each time it got Platoon Strength of recruits.

    World Travelling

    They join the Army. Been in 74 countries, mostly after I left the Army and want to be in more. Problem is the more countries that you go to and like, the more they deserve a return trip, and you sort of run out of time. A few hints that have helped me are , try the local foods and if you have...

    Whats new in Recruiting? Gen Hillier's thoughts. Options for improvement.

    Not sure but I believe that the movie was called "STRIPES" that is the kind of Military school I meant. Run by an older EX Military Officer and run like an Army base. It was a threat used by parrents when we didn't behave, that they would send us to Military school. Sorry if this is foreign to...

    Fat troops on the street....

    Opinion with no facts. For the people who don't want to serve with the over weight, smokers , or drinkers. May even want to extend that to Gays, short people, people with speech problems and even might want to cut the too skinny out. Be careful for what you wish because you might just get it...

    Now this is a question not a comment. Is it still possable to set up Military colleges, like in the 50's?

    The Canadian Peacekeeping Myth (Merged Topics)

    Yes the media and I guess for publicity sake many terms are not to my liking, such as Friendly fire, collateral damage, smart bomb and so on.

    Bigger army

    I know you didn't but you must also understand if I gave the district then they would know the who. There are other examples of this sort but as I seem to get in poop all the time I believe I will leave it at that. I was told by the Recruter that they were told how many that they were allowed to...
