    Roy's Back

    So.  I’m back. Due to personal issues, I found it expedient to take a "leave of absence" from Army.ca for the past year or so. The personal issues are resolved - and I'm back. I "see" many familiar faces amongst you - and I'm overjoyed that you're still here.  I "see" many new faces here -...

    DS Interview - Roy Harding

    I've been here a few months - but never completed one of these - airmich and Mr. Bobbitt have thrown down the gauntlet, so I guess it's time to do it. What brought you to Army.ca? After I pulled pole, I found I missed the camaraderie of the Forces.  I found that camaraderie again here. What...

    Prince George Flooding - 15 Dec 07

    Has anyone else figured out why that ice damn hasn't been blown away? Blowing it up seems to me a simple solution - perhaps I'm missing something?

    On Being DS

    I Need Some Advice

    I've recently moved to Terrace, BC - and I have become friendly with the neighbour kids.  There are four of them, ranging in age from 8 - 15.  I've met their Dad, but not their Mom.  I've become sort of an "Uncle" to them - they drop in occasionally, and we discuss whatever is on their mind...

    Correct Grammar, Punctuation... vs Text (Tweets, Emoji…)

    It has been (correctly) noted in other forums that I am somewhat of a stickler for correct usage of the Queen's English.  Those observations are accurate - I am.  The reason I am is that I have a sincere desire to understand what folks are driving at - the English language has a set of rules...
