Okay, I tried it on another computer and it's working fine.

And also a number without commissions.

For me, for about the past two weeks, it has taken a long time for anything to load, but it evenutally does.

I guess I've been lucky enough to get professors who aren't anti-military. Many of the ones I have had are anti-war, but support the military. Or at least that's the impression I got. It really depends on the individual.

The following letter to the editor appeared in the London Free Press: A-Channel news ran a story about it at 6:00, then another updated story at 11:00. The second can be summed up in this article from their website, http://www.achannel.ca/london/news_43550.aspx A-Channel withheld her name...

I did not mean to single out Islam, as was just using it as an example (hence my 'for example' comment). It could apply to any religion. I understand the utility of complying with local customs on an operational tour, out of respect for their beliefs. However, I do not believe that it is...

You understand incorrectly. The Court Martial Appeal Court ruled that the order was unlawful (and ipso facto unreasonable). My second point. How would a Christian feel if he/she was forced to observe (for example) Islamic customs and practices? The CF should not force people to observe one...

Wasn't this issue discussed and the topic locked long ago? Can we really avoid the direction the discussion took last time? Please, go on. This could be entertaining. [edited for spelling]

That's the one.

If I recall correctly, this applies to reservists who have served in Kandahar. When they transfer to the reg force, they get to keep the rank and IPC they had during their deployment. I'll be able to get more info tonight, and I'll post it if no one beats me to it. For those with DIN access...

The "TW" in CADPAT (TW) is "Temperate Woodland."

Yeah, there was sand everywhere. And I do mean everywhere.  :'( It played havoc with the C9s. This was during that period when the ammo boxes wouldn't stay on the guns (http://forums.army.ca/forums/threads/40224.0.html). The ammo ended up getting quite dirty and caused many stoppages.

I saw this article in RD. It is from Exercise Stalwart Guardian 2005. They published the story a year and a half after it happened. The first picture appears to be from 31 LIB's ill-fated attack on 1 RCR's trenches.

This is seen in other places that have such conditions, like schools or workplaces. It is common for diseases to spread more rapidly in these conditions, thus increasing the risk of those in them. An example is that the spread of the Spanish Flu (1918-1919) was hastened by the mass concentration...
