    Soldier Qualification Course (Questions & Answers)

    A conversion course doesn't "convert" you from just knowing generally how to drive to being a specific type of vehicle driver.  It converts you from being qualified on a certain vehicle to the vehicle that either replaces it, or is of a similar type.  For example, if you were qualified on the 5...

    Why Not Canadian Amphib/Marine Capability? (merged)

    Pugil, I'm sorry but I take exception to your comment about 3VP in Kandahar: We sent a battalion group as part of a US led coalition brigade, not an independent Canadian formation.   It was that brigade's job to provide transport for its soldiers because aviation is a brigade/division...

    Tactics used today that were devised by Canadian soldiers

    Regarding the Signals corps, Canada was actually the first COMMONWEALTH country to have one.  The Confederate and Union armies organized theirs during the civil war, which predates Col Carruthers' organization by more than 40 years. ...But we still beat the brits to it!! Ref...

The Busby is completely different, if you all don‘t mind ‘till after block leave I‘ll get a digital pic and post it, it‘s not the same hat as RMC wears, they might call it the busby, but it‘s not the...
