Not sure where to put this but believe it should fall within the "Home Front". I saw this on yesterday evenings news cast and was disturbed by it (perhaps a little touchy but none the less I am). http://www.newswire.ca/en/releases/archive/September2009/22/c7374.html...

PM inbound to you. C.J.

The mbrs are there on a course.

Laddie,  PM Inbound. CJ

Another 12 Platoon'r here, but Crse 8906. We had WO Northrup (RCR), MS House, MCpl Brown (LDSH), MCpl Turcotte (Supply), MS Nadeau over at the NBCW Cadre, jsut to name a few. Was housed in barracks Ontario/Quebec - right across the street from the Commandant's house :D Memories of watching the...

After working in a Squadron, I can tell you the pilots are extremely busy (they are not just flying the jets ~  perhaps one to two missions a day with perhaps only a couple of hours up in the air) Yes lots of work on the pre flight and post flight briefings. Some of them are at the Hangar before...

As for the comments ref pelicans in Cold Lake, there is a flock that is here every year. Legend has it that they somehow got on the wrong flight path ended up here and decided to stay. Just type in pelicans in Cold Lake, and you will get the hits. I saw them for the first time when I was out...

That is in the Beaver Area of the PMQs, not a bad area. And yes whoo hoo would be right as at least you are not on a waiting list.
