Ok thanks everyone I think that clears it up for me.

Thanks for the response. Lets say that trade is competitive to get into (as it probably is right now) would my civilian training make the army more willing to train me in the things I was lacking, knowing that once trained I would have that extra insight into the equipment i was using? Or are...

Hi. My question is: Are civilian qualifications that are related to a trade, but not necessarily required for entering that trade, considered in the process of getting that job? For example, I am interested in working with bombs/IED's (particularly within Canada, but obviously I gotta take what...

Hello, was hoping someone could help me clarify this document on the requirements for chaplain in the CF. http://www.cmp-cpm.forces.gc.ca/cfcb-bsafc/ps/rec/crb-bra/index-eng.asp I am confused on the requirement of 'masters in Divinity' and want to know if this applies to all religions, or only...

ill definitely keep that in mind, but come to think of it, im pretty sure iv actulay been told we can have em, but ill double check thanks. Oh and forgot to thank Wallace for the reply. Thanks.

Thats plenty practical, thanks BernDawg, just gona wait and see if I can find something in Canada first. And Iv seen privates wearing them so that's not an issue. Maby if I ever find a way down to victoria ill look around there, thanks.

I thought I had already made this post, but searching brought up nothing, so I guess I didn't.  ??? I am trying to find a simple Sgians Dubh to wear while in DEU's. I so far have only been able to find sites the sold fancy expensive blades, but I need a usable one because I do a lot of bar...

Thank you, exactly what I was looking for.

Hi, I'm writting a political science paper trying to separate legal combatants, unlawful combatants, and terrorist (I understand sometimes the later two mix), and I have found some usefull stuff on Wiki, however I was wondering if anyone has handy or remembers the actual pam taught definitions...

Thanks for the replies.  And I never thought of that George Wallace; It would work too because i often put the bladder in my patrol pack anyhow and then i could fill it up all the way.  :)

Cant find an exact answer to this anywhere else on the forums.  Will the CPgear 3L bladder fit in any of our issued pouches?  I know i have a 2L that i normally just stick in one of the pouches that comes with the patrol pack (I'm sure it has a name but i don't know it) and attach that to the...

You know i'm pretty sure Iran has these embryonic weapons, we should probably invade them.  We must stop the terrorist from obtaining these weapons of mass unethicalness!

Bigger bullets?

I really like that quote, what did you mean by attributed to Voltaire? Did he say that? (sorry im a bit english dumb) About this whole "terror alert" level thing.  Its compleat nonsense if you think about it.  For one, how can you measure something like that... maby fear per cubic meter?  With...

Another good point against this.  I had already taken thos said suggestions from the experienced posters above, and realised this was a bad idea.  Think ill stick with trying it on or using one of the temporary solutions, all depending on the situation.  I know it would be fine in on weekend...

Oops, forgot to answer that, its not a 64, its the wire stuff that apparently bends if you throw if off an ML.  And point taken then, i can see how having something sticking out would mess up the balance of the ruck. Thanks for the advice everyone. -Adrian

Thanks for the response :). I can see the general opinion is its a bad idea... I had too look up "assinine" in a dictionary haha.  So ill definitely take your advice seriously as you are all infanteers of much more experience, but before i give up on the whole idea, what about a lightly packed...

Hi, I recently ran into the problem of having to take along both my ruck and my small pack (common thing i think).  At the time I had to have everything in my ruck, and the small pack would be rolled up and placed under ruck sack lid. Two problems with this was that it took extra time to...

are there any obligations to fulfill after this?
