    BESH Knives?

    I have a pal who landed a dozen stitches in his hand like 5 mins after taking his BESH out of the box. He likes it but it's got a weird shape to it like a twisted style blade for cutting through kevlar or something? I'm not sure. He seems to dig it though, but there aren't many out there i don't...

    Boots so far...

    Funny you mention the Tac Vs. Mil boots.. it's essentially the same i've always heard them referred to except i call 'tactical' boots 'throw aways'. The best boot i've worn round home and abroad is the Lowa Patrol Boot. (non-goretex) and the Lowa Mountain Boot (same deal but g-tex) Like you...

    CF Basic Parachutist - Q&A

    I don't have a course message cut yet, but i'm on the JM thats running along side it at the same time- PT's not hard.. it's to keep you loose in the AM before work and after a long day in the racks.

    SF: Lower profile = easier funding cut target?

    Journeyman, Be that as it may, I'm in no way, shape or form above answering serious questions on most matters if i'm capable.

    Joint Task Force 2 (JTF 2) - Canadian Special Forces

    Dudes, If you have a question- call the recruiter. Theres a guy who gets paid to answer all these questions. Asking those questions here is doing yourself a disservice because 99% of the people who answer arent within the community- therefore are not authorities on the info. Lastly, if you're...

    Contributor to Washington Times: "Canadians too cowardly to fight"

    I thought the vid. was great.. not only did he omit us as a prominent fighting force but also spoke to his vast first hand knowledge of afghan culture and countryside. He must have been the only guy available on a friday afternoon before the big shoot monday morning. I'm sure if they had got...
