    New Crown

    there you go. stick with the Tudor and skip the cost of switching up all the cap badges and such. bad call by HM in my opinion. not a good way to try to stay modest and relevant with the public who are steadily becoming tired of the monarchy. good news would be don't have to change up cap...

    New Crown

    oh brother. the whole commemorative gong thing is so problematic, its IMO - not worth the bother. hand out coins for those who would like to remember the event. not decorations.

    funny part was. in 70's 80's, there were practically no "Warrant Officers" minus the Depot SM and the HQ Corps SM. Seemed like the ceremonial continued in the hands of the lower end NCO's

    sadly, or rightfully depending on your POV, the law against vagrancy went off the books many years back. believe just about when Charter of Criminals aka Rights came on line.........since then being homeless is not a crime, now meth consumption, still is, at least east of BC.

    It would have been helpful if the author of the noted article actually spent a day at Depot. I went in 87/88. It wasn't army hard, but it was tough enough. The recruits were not better or worse than the hundreds I have since worked with in Ontario, who came from the OPC. Asides from the OPC...
