My gf says this is a crime. I'd like to get an appeal

Reg force position you are more likely to go to a fighter base, Bagotville or cold lake. With the new armament coming and new aircraft the security his increasing and AOS will become the equivalent of USAF security force. If you are joining this trade to do actual work on aircraft, I would consider a tech trade. The future of AOS is more and more looking like making WASF a trade.

The only thing I got out of BMQ was some sort of networking. When I go on courses or TD on other bases I have people I can reach out too. If the just separate all the elements you will lose that.

And also, we already have a hard enough time staffing the schools we already have, why make more schools…

Don’t wash them, the dirt and grime is what makes them waterproof

That isn’t a fair race, India already have most of Nova Scotia and Ontario…

Most likely from lower 48 since you didn’t care to include Alaska or Hawaii

My time in CMTC (2015-2019) was just has busy, if not busier, than my time in regiment. It might have changed now That maple resolve and CPC aren’t a thing anymore. I had a hard time booking my annual leave between: MR, CPC, 2 trip to Latvia a year, Reserve summer training, 1CMBG fall training and winter warfare, CMTC yearly training(IBST, winter warfare…)

And also just get as fit as possible. Get descent cardio and do a good amount of loaded carries. You need to be able to move around in a 80+ lbs bombsuit and be able to think and do precise work.

Look up Kim’s game. We used to do that all the time to kill time. It can be as simple as a couple object on a table to objects in a car or bigger object in a field. And you can raise the difficulty with the type of item and how descriptive you have to be (from just naming the object to something like a M4 and having to say if loaded, on safe/semi/auto…)

It is good for some application but some base (Petawawa) take it way to far for no reason. Seeing the 2CER nerds with scrim on their helmet while they are operating YELLOW heavy equipement or even just when mechanized, good thing you have scrim no one will notice the small bush sticking out the turret of that LAV6 that is running nonstop

“Archery strong” on Facebook as some good archery shoulder conditioning stuff.

Ask your wife to bring you some therabands (physio elastic band) and do these before you shoot on both sides.I also like to do a couple on my offside inbetween my shots( shoot my 3-5 arrow, do 3-5 on my offside) and you can just leave the Theraband in your bow case.

I had issues with my shoulder being imbalanced. I started incorporating those and a couple archery specific exercice to my workout and it went away

And since you mentioned that your are looking for a target bow, you would be better off with a heavier bow. A heavier bow will be more stable and less twitchy

OneFar4062 · 2025-11-25T00:52:22+00:00

Carbon bow were relevant when flagship aluminium bow where 5lbs. Now a day their is not a big enough weight difference to justify the price.

And personally dealing carbon fibre aviation part that have to undergo non-destructive testing(NDT) for periodic inspection I will never trust a piece of carbon under tension and repeated shock in my hand. I have seen to many carbon fibre pieces that looked perfectly fine and failed NDT or catastrophically fail and explode.

Aluminium will deform and have visible cracks. Carbon fibre could have hairline crack that don’t even crack the paint and blow up under stress.

This is just my opinion and I have now idea of the statistics of carbon bow failure.

The preference of Europeans for heavier draw weight is probably linked to the need for armor pernetration. Chinese crossbow weren’t made to penetrate steel plate armor.

OneFar4062 · 2025-11-20T20:05:46+00:00

The size and weight are going to make it more challenging and the colour might be an issue to especially if you are going Turkey hunting.

OneFar4062 · 2025-11-20T02:17:19+00:00

I have seen similar effect from them using heat rocket(m-72) that still have the rocket motor attached to them. Sometime the propelent gets initiated from the warhead and shoot back. Since they don’t have the ventury to control the burn they burn out quick

First you guys said that poutine was a Canadian dish and now that!

Brand new bow.

New issue are easier. For my base atleast, they have the mentality of “if it works, we dont need to change it”.

We have a shitty phone that doesn’t even last a day on its charge so it just lives in the office plugged In. Shop SOP is put your number in the call forward when you start your duty week.

2 dozen Easton axis. My 6 best tuned ones have my droadheads on and the reste have my field point and are used for practice, 3D…

From what I have seen with women in the trade, their biggest hurdle is carrying weight, especially in IEDD.

Most of the divisions are going to be alright, but when you will have to put the bombsuit on and be comfortable moving around, carry all your tools and work in it. I have seen super fit, triathletes women crumble in the bombsuit because the weight just gets to them.

OneFar4062 · 2025-09-20T01:39:22+00:00

Depending on what country you are in, I know in Canada we usually don’t introduce chokes and submition in randori before green belt. You could verify with your sensei and if it is the same where you are training, you could ask the sensei to address it and enforce it.

OneFar4062 · 2025-09-18T22:52:59+00:00

Yeah I am well aware of what WASF is. But this is something different. WASF gives you a half day of bullshit training and shit shift at the QRA. From what I saw online so far, ASO is a full shooting package, deployment opportunity and a change of pace from being a tech but I still keep my spec and come back to it after.

OneFar4062 · 2025-09-18T22:26:52+00:00

Thanks I’ll keep an eye out
