I apologize then, as I was mislead by what I read on Wikipedia- Thanks for clearing that up.

"Canadian Household Division" as in the Canadian guards units. Seeing as we follow British tradition I figured we called it the same thing as they do, and this site http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Governor_General's_Horse_Guards also refers to the Horse Guards as Household Cavalry. By junior...

Yes the GGHG still have a Cavalry Squadron (from what I've seen it is really a troop but whatever) plus a band which seems to get around the GTA. Does anyone know why the GGHG don't participate in the CG, even though they are part of the Canadian Household Division? Anybody I've asked has no...

Is there anywhere in the GTA that mounts cadet medals? I already have two which are mounted but was recently awarded a third which I would like to get mounted. I did the last two at Joe Drouin and it cost me an arm and a leg, and now with the third I have to pay for it to be done all over...

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone knows where to get an Iltis fuel pump. My friend is trying to fix up an Iltis that he bought, and all he needs is the fuel pump. So far no luck. Does anyone happen to know where I'd be able to find one?

We didn't even bother taking the Canadian Webbing overseas, instead we were issued British PLCE while in Scoltand.

You are issued with two sets of normal combats, plus some extra exchange goodies for when your travelling.

It was in Borden, on a certain cadet corps' annual JLC/SLC March Break leadership week. There were several cadets corps involved from two or three different units.

It doesn't matter, but the firearms they were using are DP rifles which have been dewatted.

Oh yea...it definately has been. I just finished talking with the RSM of one of the units involved and there is currently an ongoing investigation. Knowing the CO of one of the units and the staff at Area there will be hell to pay.

Thanks for all the tips. I am really fond of this sword, it is really quite nice. It is a cavalry pattern sword, marked Solingen, it has a really nice design on the blade and its got a nice sharkskin grip that is wrapped in gold wire. It has been with the corps for awhile, it was taken from...

Is there anything I can do to clean out the scabbard and fix the damage?

I have a question about damage to my cadet corps' sword. When it is out of the scabbard it has a funky smell, I have no clue as to what it is but I think it is coming from the scabbard itself. As well there is some damage to the blade, I don't really know how to describe it so I've attached some...

There is no point seeing as cadets are not allowed to do C7 drill.

Hey Lee, I saw the pamphlet for all the summer courses that my CO was given and it did not list the two new choices, only the ones previously listed. I did see a CRCSO that listed officer positions for both the Cayman Islands and Australia so they must be available. If you have Sgt Jones email...

I had a staff cadet who was a reservist when I was in CL. Apparently he had done all his initial training so he was allowed to staff at Blackdown for the summer.

The CIC escorts change every year/ other year. The OC of the course was the 2ic the year before usually.

No, they switched the escort officer in 2002, he is an awesome guy though. The escort nco (a SSGT) is still the same.

I think we had this discussion on the plane back to Canada...OBW had the roughest time out of the UK exchanges. From what I heard your 2ic saying, you guys had it real bad with the way training was set up by your hosts. OBS on the other hand had an awesome NCO and Officer who was with us the...
