Visitors weren't an issue when I did SLT last year at the Mega. Overall, the rules were pretty relaxed. Contact the base for specific details, but I wouldn't worry about having a few people over (the rooms are small...keep that in mind!) Enjoy the course! It was a really good time...and it's in...

...I think Gunnar explained what I was leaning towards ‘slightly‘ (more like, exponentially) better than I did with respect to the terrorist attitude...

(Oh, I forgot to mention...) By all means, don‘t hesitate to correct me. I‘m not writing by memory here - not that it‘s an excuse for error, but I‘m trying to make the best point that I can without having to spend hours on research. If anything, it‘s better to be wrong. That way I (and whoever...

Infanteer, I was refering to the Jihad (the ‘conquering of the infidels‘) Poland was the last ‘drop in the bucket‘, if you will, that caused England and France to declare war. I didn‘t word it quite right in my first post there, but that‘s what I was getting at. My notes said 1938...but the...

So sad....oh so sad! (but amusing!)

Badbird and nbk, I can see where you‘re coming from, but we all need to keep our minds open on this issue. Wes is entirely correct to say that this is a war ‘about radical Islam‘. This is not a ‘normal‘ (if there is such a thing) war - it is a Jihad. A religious war. The objective is to convert...

(From Infanteer) I agree with you 100%! That‘s what I was trying to get at when I was talking about our forces being spread so thin. We gave the US and Brittan the square root of nothing (in terms of support). That‘s was what bothered me the most.

I think he brings some important issues into the spotlight (well, more than they are already), but his rants are over the edge. His performance (Oscars or Golden Globe awards (?) last year) was unacceptable. I don‘t care who you are or where you‘re from, speaking like that about your nation‘s...

Correct me if I‘m wrong, but wasn‘t it proven that Saddam was indirectly funding terrorist activity? (‘Death benefits‘ - of some sort - for the families of suicide bombers) That was one of the reasons for targeting him again. There was an article in the Ottawa Citizen a while back. I‘ll look for...

I wouldn‘t worry about the CFAT...Get a good night‘s rest and a large cup of Timmy‘s right before the test and you‘ll do fine! Just keep your mind open! Remember that it‘s not a test on what you know...it‘s your ability to learn!

Chalcey, DEO stands for Direct Entry Officer. What university are you at Trey? I‘m at the University of Ottawa.

I don‘t really see how accepting technology is a problem. Like wongskc said, tanks went through some incredible changes and look at what we have today! The same applies to helicopters (DaVinci invented his model waaay back). Now they‘re flying tanks. The ‘communicators‘ from Star Wars (3D...

Other than physical training, do you have any other preparation advice for CAP? Is there anything posted online like there was for BOTC? I‘ll be in Gagetown this summer too.

To ‘skip‘ the Second Language Course, you need a B-A-B (oral-writing-reading) on the placement exam. Best of luck! -Dave
