Did the RCN switch to metal skill badges for all of their skill badges on DEU tunics? I thought I saw a couple of pictures with sailors with metal diver badges on their tunics. If so, why the change? Are the other services going to follow suit?
I am looking for any photos of the White School in Pashmul for a presentation I am doing. Any photos and specifically an electronic copy of an aerial photo would be awesome. PM me if you have any and I will givie you an email you can send them to. Thanks.
The only time I seem to come on here is to stick up for poor TOW Tripod!! First, CONGRATULATIONS to him on HIS CDS Commendation and another congratulations for not being afraid to say what a lot troops are thinking. I know I was fuming after reading his citation and then seeing what others had...

That douche has earned the right to speak on Afghanistan without being personally attacked by some internet tough guy. I would put money on you not having the courage to call him a douche to his face.
Not a day of service as a reg force soldier.
There were some and he did to it - I'll give him that much.
Those are the ones he wears (picture below) and he didn't have them on his uniform until he returned from Bosnia. He says outright that he was awarded them after being qualified as a Msn...
I'm trying to find some official regulations or instructions regarding this, but I'm not having much luck. I 'm pretty sure I'm on track, but I'd like to be sure.
It's one of those cases that generally angers most members of any military I'd reckon - that insecure poser that figures he'll...
It's too bad we can't push ahead at the same pace in regards to replacing some of our equipment: tacvest, design of cbt clothing, boots, wpns sight....... Good on them for going with a commercial boot and giving the soldiers a choice of two designs, Meindl or Lowa.
