On a similar note, from reading the magazine "This England", there has been a push from the governement level to have the Union Jack replaced with the European flag on public buildings.

I talked with the Canadian jerry can manufacturer, and they said they investigated offering a spigot, but didn't think there would be enough demand to justify it. See attached photo for their prototype.
Thanks for all the suggestions,
Allan.
Just adding some clarification to the intended use. I was looking into using the jerry cans for our Scout group rather than the ones from Walmart. I figured they would be a lot stronger and last better, and be water tight. But we typically place them on a table or stump and then put a cup or...
Has anyone seen spigots for the plastic NATO jerry can? I have found pouring spouts, but not spigots that can be turned on/off. See attached photos.

The camo paint was considered, but we can see the problem being getting the paint all over their sleeping bags and tents. An we didn't want to have to spend a lot of time washing it off while at camp. We did think of doing it on the Sunday morning and sending them home like that for their...
Ahh, you guys are the experts on military stuff, but we know the minds of 8-10 year olds :) Mostly boys. The Cubs that have heard about the camp are actually tickled pink. Will it really be like what happens at basic training? Not at all. But the connection is there, and that's all the Cubs care...
Wasn't sure where to put this question, this seemed the most general forum.
We are organisning a weekend Cub camp, and have decided on an Army Boot Camp theme. All the activities will be along this theme. To add to the "realism", we are planning on giving ranks to the leaders running the camp...
Honest, the "friend" is not me :) From what I understand his CO is well aware and some action has already occured. Don't want to give any more details as that might divulge identity and base. I am just interested in what the final outcome might be as his family are friends as well.
Thanks.
Someone I know in the military has recently been charged in civilian life with assault. What will happen to their military career? Does it result in an instant discharge? Just curious.
Thanks.
I didn't know the hybrids got such bad gas milage.
I have a 2000 Jetta TDI and it get 4.4L/100km (60M/CG or 50 M/USG). I also have a Suburban at 16L/100km!
I like the diesels in that you get the good milage, but still are a decent size and have the torque available for good towing. I don't...

A little while ago, I read a lengthy post from someone (doing private security work in Afganistan or Iraq I think) about what they packed when they went out in a vehicle. I think I might have read this here. It was a couple of pages in length and very well done I thought. I have searched but...
