    Looking for Paul Schutt 1RCR Charles Coy 1990s

    I wonder if that is the same guy who invited Prince Philip (who respectfully declined) to his wedding. I think it must be. He was in Dukes Coy then, and thought it would be a good idea to invite the Duke himself.  Very funny guy. If you're reading this...hello Paul you crazy mo-fo!

    The Oka Crisis

    Hello Jack. Each section was to be accompanied by a RCMP officer in the event that we would need to make arrests (properly in the public eye?) on the reserve.

    Nothing beats a good helicopter ride!  ;D ...swoop away boys! Actually people being able to find you with helicopters would be an asset in an emergency situation. Never can tell when you will need the big YELLOW rescue helicopter.

    All things GPS (recommendations, tips, etc.) - merged

    If you buy a GPS unit in Canada your broadcast comms will be limited to 1watt or apx 3-5km's range.(CRTC regulations) A Garmin Rhyno 5xx series for eg., if bought in the US, will transmit 5watt or out to apx.25km. May be a factor to consider on your next cross border shopping trip.

    Crash Landing; The Passionate Eye-CBC

    Are two topic categories required here? One for say," How to identify and punish system abusers." The other "Positive steps to recovering from PTSD, and service related depression."  Seems blending the two topics is counterproductive.

    The Role of the Infantry in the War of the Snakes

    I just love the snake ball anallogy. The concept of how to approach the population, in order to more effectively accomplish the mission is beyond reproach; not sure the stated role of the inf NEEDS to change in order to incorporate the tactic. How's this one? "To close with and diffuse the snake...

    We sleep well in our beds with the knowledge that brave men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those that would do us harm.... by scamming the system? Thankyou for being prepared for that, comforting indeed. Any thoughts about the legitamite cases?
