:tank:   I think I peed myself when I read that, as that is exactly what I was thinking. I wonder why an "airsofter" would want all that kit. The LCF is old and for newbies. :threat:

LOL  :skull:   I had the same problem with one of my young soldiers walk around with his hands in his pockets. I did the exact same thing and asked him if his hands we're cold? No he replied I then told him to get his F''king gloves on right now.   I know its nice to have that fleece lined...

:warstory:Osotogari;   I bleed your pain. I am too a member of 41 CBG and all it seems to me is that they make all these promises and they fall through all the time. I am tired of it. Remember the ex to California and we trained at Debney to shoot at a paintball field transported by minivans...

:skull:   Goddamn!! Well put and well said. I wish I could be that articulate. You said everything I thought. I have heard, seen all the things you said about the Armoured Corps. Thank you!! (seriously)

You all bring up a great point. The PRes Armoured do not have a function in the CF. We are Recce but augmentees. We are Armoured but no Vehicles. IMHO the army needs to get us the training we require to be equivalent to the Reg For standards. Now if that mean a PRes Soldier does not his/her...

???..just a question, what are you doing pressing your weapon against your TV on a RECCE Ex? Your on a Point Recce shouldnt your weapon be pointed out in front off you or to your side when in close country?     I am left handed and left eye dominant, never had a problem with the C7, good luck.

Hi there   What is it you want to know, I taught a DP2 Recce and Completed both the DP3A Parts. Let me know what you need.

I have bought two bags from Al and GOD D**N love them. The Green one I bought 3 yrs ago, a guy I was on my 6A's with, liked it and bought it. I then bought a CADPAT one with Mods. I use a 64 pattern frame and issued Harness. I use an American kidney pad on the bottom. I used to have Al's...

Dunno   I used to buy alot of my own kit, now with what I am getting (slowly) I havent spent much any more. I personally like all the gloves we are issued now, CVC;s rock. The mortar glove is excellent too. My two cents

Yes someone from your unit should have been there to help you get kitted. It is a shame, I would not worry to much about it as your instructors will be given the responsability of teaching you this. Best advise, take every piece of kit the queen gave and have it on your person when you report...

:skull:   Don't know if this helps or not. My unit did a freedom of the city parade in Med Hat with TACVEST. We had both the side hip pouches removed, slipons the left shoulder and french rolls for the straps.   We had the choice to attend the parade or not. I have found parades in the Army...

Train as you fight? right! Then would we not be issued Ballistic Plates to train with? I agree with being prepared for overseas duty. Though the original post was the Sgt bought them to use during training. If the Sgt was going overseas he would be on work up and NOT conducting regular...

:cdn: WOW!  Reading this tread, I wanted to throw my 2 cents in.  I am a Coyote Driver Qualified. Myself and 4 others from my unit were on a full time course ran by the Strats in 2001. On a funny side note, the 5 of us, got the top 5 positions on the course out of 24 students. 6th and 7th...

Chi   Talk to your Tpt NCO, hes a good man. He can tell you about all the after market kit you want. I know I was on course with him this past summer on the Patrol Commanders course in Gagetown and then taught DP2 in Wainwright with him.   I know in my unit here we were fairly strict on kit...
