    Reserve to Regforce Time in Calculations help

    So basically you got your 8 months for your class b work, class a days goes as follows.  Full Class A day= half day, 1/2 class A day=1/4 day. My Buddy complained about his CT as well but he did not work nearly as much as i did.  He did 3 years in the Reserves and he got about 6 months towards...

    Cadets vs Reserves for RMC applicant

    If your thinking of giving a career in the CF a try i would suggest going into the PRes as it will give you an idea of what your getting yourself into.  I have seen many a person go through the system with a certain idea of what the CF does and have it totally blown out of the water when they...

    CF Ordering 25K "Hybrid (Combat) Shirts"

    Ok i was watching Army News today, the story about a pl escorting an ANA unit to a new base.  I saw a new shirt i have never seen before and after reading this i have come to realize that this is the shirt people on this thread were talking about.  It kinda looks weird.

    Which is why they have that new sizing system, unfortunately they do not take into account orthopedic insoles.

    GPS - Trust / Don't Trust

    i have a few things to say about GPS, speaking as a DAGR (new army GPS we got a few years ago) IT DOES NOT REPLACE PROPER NAVIGATIONAL TRAINING That being said, GPS is a wonderful tool as long as it works.  There are a few things someone does need to worry or watch.  Do they know how to...

    Mark III Boots - Polishing...

    Wouldn'd it be nice if they would just make a boot that were as close to perfect as possible??? I also understand that there is no such thing as a perfect boot as often the case one excellent feature in a boot added to another excellent feature kind of make it zero out, you want lightweight...

    Adding a Missile capability to the LAV III

    I am seeing a few interesting ideas. 1) That adding a missile capability to the LAV-III is more of quick shot idea, which makes sense, to have reloads with the vehicle takes up space (TOW missiles are not small by any means)) and its dangerous to reload the system due to it not being under...

    Mark III Boots - Polishing...

    I'm pretty sure everyone can agree that the new boots while better in some instances (I do like the speed lacing and the fact they have Vibram soles) they are much less than perfect.

    Adding a Missile capability to the LAV III

    Just saying that the added capabilities to the LAV-III is a great idea.  As well the TOW missiles we have in the system are for anti tank purposes, not buneker busting, though it will work due to the fact they have warheads with a couple of kilos of High Explosives, but its a HEAT warhead and...

    Adding a Missile capability to the LAV III

    I personally think it would be a good addition to the LAV-III.  It would give the LAV an ability to take out a tank if it needed to.  That being said i do not think any LAV-II would want to go toe to toe with a tank but if they were advancing and came into contact with a tank they would want to...

    Mark III Boots - Polishing...

    Maybe it's just my general dislike for army boots that i made that statement, the sad thing is i have done a few BFTs in the Wet Weather Boots and didnt have a problem with my feet.

    The Great Boot Review

    I have had quite a few types of SWATs over the years. My first set was a pair from the Canadian Company Original Shoe (same company but Canadian version) I had their 9" classic until after a year or so they kind of fell apart (the various swamps ive gone through at the time didnt help at all...

    Mark III Boots - Polishing...

    am i the only person that thinks this guy is nuts??? i mean the Mk IIIs were the worst boots (in recent history) ever made!!! as for polishing them, you have a polish applicator-use this to put on the boot polish, after this take a boot brush (its usually bigger) and brush them to a bit of a...
