If you're really nails, you pronounce it "cease-or".

I've been eyeing the deadbird gore-tex socks for a while. If you get them let us know how they work out. I have a pair of these http://www.mec.ca/product/4000-338/rocky-stretch-gore-tex-oversocks-unisex/?h=10+50026+50131&f=10+50131+50443, and they have served me well for several years of civvy...

Contact your Chain of Command, they are the best people to ask about this.

HMCS SEDNA HMCS SGA'NA Inuit and Haida dieties of the sea. There might be some cultural sensitivities to negotiate around, but also good opportunities for more FN engagement with the RCN. Realistically can we afford to operate two LHD's? I think that a Mistral would give Canada a level of...

He never wanted to be a supply tech in the first place. He wanted to be... a lumberjack!

Records Management isn't much better off in most businesses I've worked for, including a couple regulatory bodies and crown corporations. DND did take a step in the right direction by making everyone go through the IM Intro module, but needs to follow it up with the infrastructure and SME's to...

The TAPV is not the platform that PRes Armour needs right now, IMO. To respond to DomOps PRes needs a platform that is located at least in the same city, if not right on the armoury floor. If there's another Op Lentus we can't tell the civilian leaders that we need to hire a bus, drive 2-4...

"Hurry up and wait" goes hand-in-hand with "on the bus, off the bus".

Norman Donogh was my great-uncle, although I only met him on a few occasions when I was younger. The Donogh side of my family is part of what drives me to serve. His brother, Oliver, was named for their uncle Roland, who died 12 Apr 1917 while serving with the 1st Canadian Mounted Rifles. Their...

What about something like this? http://www.meetearl.com/ Rugged body. Integrated solar panel.

Those are points I hadn't considered, thank you. There are certainly a lot of logistical concerns that would have to be addressed, and they may not offset the costs of travelling to area training centers.

What about reducing the number of exercises that take place at area training centers? Increase the number of exercises conducted in the urban areas where units are located. This could: 1. Reduce transportation costs. 2. Reduce fuel costs for units with large vehicle fleets such as Armoured...

I don't know about the legalities, but it's sure as hell unprofessional. Taking the piss out of fellow soldiers is a normal army thing to do, but like a lot of perfectly normal army things shouldn't be put out for the public to see.

If being a LEO is your desired end state you might want to consider armoured recce as it has several transferable skill sets: 1. Patrolling in vehicles. 2. Using radios. 3. Drinking coffee while patrolling in vehicles. 4. Looking cool as f*** while patrolling in vehicles. ;) Putting my HR...

My wife and I went to Punta Cana for our honeymoon and loved it. We found that the best food on the resort was the local fare; rice and beans, rabbit, yuca, and plantains. Avoid the 'nation x' nights i.e. French Night or Mexican Night. My wife still rants about the burrito they served her which...

Will it have some form of detachable or roll-up combat mullet like the helmet or wide brim field cap?

Javelot? Proposed French anti-air defense system consisting of a rocket-based CIWS mounted on an AMX-30 chassis.

Apologies for the necropost. I've recently been diagnosed with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) and would like some input from CF members on their experiences with it; specifically regarding recurrence. My physiotherapist is starting me on a rehabilitation program that will take several...

The idea that someone with the user name Back to Basics wants to add more complexity to kit issue is absolutely delicious. For me simply being a member of the CF instills me with a sufficient amount of pride, having an Army specific business casual uniform isn't going to instill any additional...
