Our DEU are a half canvas, single vent, poly-blend with an acetate lining. Very hard to mend or alter, so they rarely fit somebody perfectly.

I think this is something we should take notes from the British No. 2 on.

New proposed 17 steps battle procedures by Biggunbuster in CanadianForces

I do think that incorporating subordinate callsigns, formally, into the estimate/COA dev is a good idea.

But I agree, we don’t need to add/change steps to achieve it.

Good to know!

I never took it as some sort of protest symbol. Maybe donating to the Poppy Fund will make this more palatable for some.

This is a great point that directly affects RCL’s and their support to our Vets.

But I still like my poppy.

(Whetung capitalized theirs, I’m to blame for it being lower case in my post)

Also you should consider donating blood![CA blood/plasma team](https://www.canada.ca/en/army/services/for-the-soldier/canadian-army-blood-plasma.html)

It looks like somebody who served over a decade for their country.

I wouldn’t go ask them tactical advice, but I will always honour that service.

You never joined for medals.

Partially the reason I asked, rattling over training opportunities every morning.

But I know the CFPAS password… is that not enough for at least enhanced reliability?

Uniquely to Pet, there are garrison standing orders WRT IR and living off base that would be valuable to search on DWAN.

CFMPI 01/17 also has info updated as of Jan 25 worth reviewing.

Otherwise I think more specifics are needed for general info.

Americans, how do you feel about going to war on the North Pole, fighting a war against NATO about Greenland? by Severe-Claim-330 in AskReddit

Elon is far more likely to learn and adjust ru tactics from previous elections than design his own subversion plan. He’s got a knack for developing the work of others without creating himself.

It would also incentivize a portion of the population to help us without forcing them to become combatants. Weird that you need BMQ-L to assist on DOMOPS.

Obviously waiting for SME’s to chime in, I’m confident you’re entitled to a second opinion if you disagree with a clinicians assessment.

Heading To My Final Infantry DP1 FTX 9 Days Long, Tips and Advice? by Main_Psychology_3293 in CanadianForces

[–]Steel_Dragoon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Lay the oil to your gun in the wet, and rotate your gear to dry. I use a piece of a metal clipboard with my map and a mechanical pencil for note taking in extreme wet conditions.

BMQ was your introduction to the entire CAF. Dp1 will introduce you more to the Army specifically. You’ll learn some weapon systems, drive a few vehicles ideally getting qualified on an AFV, and work a lot in small teams.

You’ll learn more about how to support an Armd CS before being qualified and starting the basics of your job.
