Brihard is far more knowledgeable on the PRes infantry side, and it's been 15 years since I was in the 'Mo. The point I want to drive home is that you're not entitled to CFR even with a good CFAT score. Any number or things could mean you're bypassed for a CFR but a smart unit would want to pick...

A member has had a sanction applied and is welcome to stay once their time out is completed if they are willing to debate in good faith. Threatening doxing and posting screenshots of PMs publically fly in the face of rational debate and jump head first into trolling territory. - Milnet.ca Staff

Iran has just realized that Hamas has upset the balance with their terror attack and Israel is taking the gloves off.

There's never a guarantee you can CFR, its a recommendation from your chain of command and there has to be a spot open. What I'm saying is that if you take the NCM route, be 100% committed to it. They will not look at you to CFR if ROTP/DEO is that popular until you're typically a Sgt (that's...

If you want to be an officer, be an officer. You'd really just be delaying your career path as you're going to start all over again as a junior officer. There is no guarantee you'd be given an opportunity to CFR.

Hasn't been here for almost 3 years.

Ever been to a third world country and seen beyond the tourist areas/cities? Our poor have it pretty damn good comparatively.

Could put 4x 50 unit apartments and 3 blocks of duplexes back in there and barely touch the vacant land between the wind tunnel and start of PMQ area. Space isn't an issue, funding and GAFF is.

I've had a ruck up to 90lbs with just clothes water and food. Anything heavy needs to be high up and close to your back. It also needs to be secure. A 45lb plate rattling around in your ruck is probably what's causing your problem andyou might want to check out the weight limits of the bags...

I lived there when they tore down 3 or 4 SQ buildings and now entire streets of homes are missing... insufficient quantity just seems like a gross understatement.

I absolutely love how they're going to turn NDMC into civilian housing, instead of, maybe PMQs/SQs for the thousands of troops in the NCR that need CAFHD because there's no single quarters or even PMQs left...

Gave the budget a thread of its own as I suspect it will spur huge discussion.

We saw everything they think are the good parts. The tax hikes get announced tomorrow.

There's nothing wrong with a Canadian pattern. The issue, as always, is a funding problem. If we made a gigantic order to do full Bdes of clothing and equipment at the same time, our order would get prioritized. Instead we're stuck piece-mealing orders because we're woefully underfunded for...

Israel's been looking to take the gloves off with Iran for a while. This might be the impetus for a larger strike on Iran proper.
