    This is just a little something I would recomend but its NOT YET APPROVED BY THE CF, I personally am going to look into after I finish my dp1 course.  They are called intacs, they can be removed and don't weaken the cornea and as your eyesight worsens when you get older they can be replaced with...

    All things LASIK surgery (aircrew/other -- merged)

    Yea I talked to one of the sergeants once, he didn't really know. He also told me it was a 6 month wait so there was no way I was going to wait that long for after the procedure. And I hopped back onto army.ca on my christmas break and found out it could be as low as 3 months. So when I go  back...

    All things LASIK surgery (aircrew/other -- merged)

    I was pondering on when to get the surgery and how I would go about getting it whilst in PAT because I don't wanna go in the field with glasses on or prescription inserts as they hinder me when it rains or at the slightest amount physical activity.  But, Problem A, I have no idea when my course...

    A Trip to the Moon or Mars: Necessary or Waste of Cash?

    In my opinion definetly a waste of money. And I find it funny how so many people talk about how the army is such a waste of money. But they love the idea of spending billions on space exploration. Something much more useless. Though a lot of technology has come from Nasa and I do support that...

    Re-applying / question to infantry soldiers

    O didn't know that there was 2 units in edmonton. I just hoping I don't get stuck in shilo. No I don't expect to be a ninja sniper, I am 18, and don't want to be in some small town with nothing happening ever. But I will go wherever I have too. Like I said it is not much of a problem.

    Re-applying / question to infantry soldiers

    Rinker really? I am not sure what this is (sarcasm?). Yea I know they do not let you pick what battalion you go too. But I wasn't sure if 3ppcli took people directly as I here lots of people would like to transfer into them as it is in edmonton. So now I guess I wait and see. :nod:

    Re-applying / question to infantry soldiers

    well I did get in for PPCLI, was merit listed for approximately 3 weeks. But I really want to get into 3ppcli, does anyone know if they take new guys or do they mostly get people that transfer over there. It really isn't a huge deal for me to get there I would just prefer it.

    How to get family on board

    Yea my parents were none too happy even though they had 8 years or so to get used to the idea. Back then they just thought I was going through a phase. And the fact that I was pretty much straight A's without doing my Hw or studying they were expecting me to do something "hard/great". But you...

    Canadian Public Opinion Polls on Afghanistan

    How many people here talk to people who don't support the war, but don't really know why they don't support the war. They just say it is war, it doesn't help. Now there has got to be a lot of those types.
