Our LAVs are very well protected. Just look at the way they can take a direct from an RPG. It still doesn't matter though because it all depends on the amount of explosives they pack into an IED.

Hope the guys get well and get out of the hospital soon!

they're shooting at us, we are shooting at them, this is no UN mission so what else could you call it besides war? combat operations? that sounds like war to me!

I understand where this is coming from but if you ask me and any other Canadian soldier, this is war. :cdn:

I for one am glad that someone is finally going to get us some new stuff. we have needed this equipment for a long time so i hope this list is approved. I support our Canadian firms but I still think that we should buy off the shelf equipment from foreign suppliers. this way its cheaper and and...

I have to say, this was a well put together atricle. I have to agree with it because that is what the terrorists want to do, create a false image of power and strength in the hopes that it will scare the public. I know that there are a lot of people out there who seemed to have believed this...

When the last WW1 vet does pass, god forbid, I think that there should be a state funeral because these men fought in one of the greatest wars ever fought in history and to not have the entire nation remember them would be a disgrace upon this country. My thoughts go out to these remaining...

I totally agree. people just want Rememberance Day to be a holiday so they can get off work or out of school. they SHOULD just take time off to go to a ceremony. I believe that if they get this as a holiday, they will just stay home.

this article makes a lot of sense. it is very true in what it states.

i believe that Harper can change things and make the military stronger. He's got the best CDS we have had for a long time and a minister of defence that knows his stuff.

a message to the guys who got hurt, I hope they get well quickly and that there be no complications. :salute:

just wanted to tell you, at my high school in Owen Sound, ON a group of me and my friends wear orange instead of red on Fri. for the military.

yesterday and today, i was having the same problems especially when I was chatting with forestedwarrior and every time i went to reply to him, i had to send the message about 2 or3 times before it actually went trough, and today just getting on the website was a hassel. and by the way i just...

What these terrorists don't know is that Canada does not run from a battle just because of a few casualties. I know that no Canadian wants to see their own soldiers coming home in metal boxes but we should, stick with the plan and I think that is what the taliban are going to find out. :cdn:

Personally, I think it is about time that we have a government that will get off their butts and better recognize our current and former CF members. :)[Gand SF, the best regiment in 32Brigade!]
