Lord... this proves what wankers some of really are on army.ca  :salute: not just that you are uninformed but you are stupid and ignorant too :blotto: grow-up

It always amazes me how uninformed most of you actually are. Also the fact that the majority of you always try and find fault-- grow up, this is more important than your egos this is about how our soldiers will be treated after this war is over for Canada. And like all wars it will end. Someone...

I am as always stunned by the stupidity of some of you. Ignornace of reality is no excuse to be abusive--- it just illustrates your own ignornace. As a clarification, the CBC.ca story is actually based on a interview on CBC radio --- for the record the CBC.ca types took the key statements out...

I think that the biggest issue for CF personnel is the "self-identification"... given the various criteria we have been discussing, it seems rather inane to ask someone to consider if they are a TBI casualty! Now keep in mind this was the policy as of early August 2007... so it could have...

Dear Grey Matter http://www.dvbic.org/cms.php?p=Blast_injury this link has some basic useful facts... but look into the sources at the end if you have time, there are some very good resources there. The problem with measuring the impact of the blast wave ref TBI is there are too many variables...

I am suprised by the sarcasm here---this has nothing to do with me but about the people serving in Afghanistan--- this is a really serious problem that could be effecting hundreds of our soldiers who have been within the blast radius of any type of explosion. Actually, I was asked what I knew...

No it really is me...  I have just got a little fed-up with the sniping, and sometimes you just have to stick it to twits who simply do not know what they are talking about. There is no point being gentle or nice. One is inclined to think that some of it is even racial in nature, but who knows...

Dear Grey matter Let me make something crystal clear--- it is not my background that is in question here--- remember I'm the one on TV and radio and in print.... it is yours that is in question! By default being in the media gets negative responses--- which is rather funny since this all...

This is Prof. Sunil Ram speaking... the real one not the guy up in Hunstville. For what it is worth I started at 734 Comm Sqn Regina, I have served briefly with 1CSR Kingston and 731 Com Sqn CFB Shilo and I was a lineman! Now if any of you know what the Pine Tree Line was and know anything...
