What is the supplementary reserve? Do they actually come out for training?

Sorry to distract, but what does the 20 year contract mean? you're in for 20 years regardless? do you get extra benefits for that as opposed to just renewing every few years?

Camelbaks.. but I think they're in production or something like that? I'm not sure.  Most people buy them anyway.

Why? Don't we have enough people who want to join the military but are getting "jerked" around by long enlistment periods? There's no way the CF could handle a huge onslaught of troops when it's having so many problems training the ones it has now. Why should someone need to join a civil...

He's using an iron sight.

Go up your chain of command about it. BTW: it's "cadpat" not "cadpad".
