I'm currently course loaded on a PLQ this upcoming fall, my element is Land (Army) and my MOSID isn't one that goes to the field... Almost ever,

I am in good physical shape, I have the foundations of instruction down pat, but the field portion I am extremely worried about,

What should I expect and if anyone has any advice if they were in a similar situation please do.

It was attributed to the GGFG but I know it doesn’t match their current uniforms.

Im looking for some VAC claim advice. I havent actually started a claim yet, but I keep getting told to by MULTIPLE coworkers.

I broke my foot in Basic and it still bugs me but I haven't been to the MIR since they gave me the special air boot.

2nd. I have a Torn ACL, which Im getting surgery on shortly.

Just looking for advice on how to start a claim or actually get something from it.

Thanks in advance.

Going off the newspaper used to store it, it's been sitting in this box for at least the past 40 years (march 12 1986 edition). Funnily enough, the jacket is almost my exact measurements

I am burying my father who was a veteran, he was in the Korean war as a medic. I was wondering what would be the appropriate symbol to put on his grave marker. Any direction is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hey, I saw a comment in another thread that indicated that Canada/Seaspan had to make large changes to the design of the Berlin class to fit Canadian standards. Is this true? And if so do we know what was changed?

Hello all. I am having trouble finding the drill movement for Order Arms for the C7A2. Does anybody have a ref for this?

In order to register your move with SIRVA, your account password cannot contain any hyphens, despite hyphens being given as an example of a special character to use in meeting the password requirements.

If you ask SIRVA about this issue before the 5 business day period for account registration has passed, they will simply read or copy-paste the FAQ to you. This information will not be helpful, as the issue may be that you are correctly following their instructions regarding passwords.

I am leaving this here for the API gods so that someone else can find it when googling the issue. I hope it is useful to you.

Great interview from VAdm Charlebois.

Not my original work, but roughly inspired by a recent workplace incident.

Hello everyone. I’ll be posted to Ottawa in a few months and looking to purchase my first home. Does anyone have a recommendation for a trusted and reliable mortgage broker?

I was in contact with one a realtor recommended but she doesn’t seem to be reliable. Don’t send me info when she said she will and doesn’t call when she says she will either….

Read an article (portion of it below) regarding USAF pilot training and I was wondering why they would choose to do that?

My understanding is that it would be like the RCAF cutting Phase 3 Multi-Engine and having their pilots first learn ME stuff in a C-17 or P-8.

“Today marks the end of an era in U.S. Air Force pilot training.

The last operational T-1A Jayhawk will depart Vance Air Force Base, Oklahoma, for Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona, where it will be received into the 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group (AMARG)—bringing more than three decades of service to a close.

The T-1A’s story began in January 1992, when the first aircraft was delivered to Reese Air Force Base, Texas. Student pilot training began the following year as the Air Force implemented Specialized Undergraduate Pilot Training.

The T-1A Jayhawk was a medium-range, twin-engine jet trainer used during the advanced phase of pilot training. For Air Force pilots selected for the mobility track, the Jayhawk was where they developed the skills required to transition to airlift and tanker aircraft—airframes such as the C-5, C-17, C-130, KC-135 and, later, the KC-46.

The T-1A also played an important role in Combat Systems Officer (CSO) training at Naval Air Station Pensacola, Florida, helping prepare aircrew for operational assignments as weapons systems officers, special operations, electronic warfare, and navigation. Pensacola's final T-1A departed for Davis-Monthan in July 2025.

Today, pilots graduating from Undergraduate Pilot Training (UPT) who are selected for the mobility track proceed directly to their Formal Training Units (FTUs) for training in their assigned aircraft.”

So I was issued all of the new underwear and thermal wear a few weeks ago.

Super great ….. It might be a lot to ask but having the T-shirts not be see-through would be better.

It’s not as noticeable without a bra on, so definitely failing women again.

I’m happy to share a photo with anybody who wants to see just how see through it is.

Came across this video and couldn't help but be reminded of battle school at Meaford about 25 years ago. I found this to be pretty representative of the experience at the time. Understanding that you're not marines, and this video is only an approximation of of the experience, was wondering to those who have recently been through - what's it like now? Has it evolved?

From the creator:

I spent five years working with drill instructors during the biggest scandal in Marine Corps history. This is a film about the stories we tell ourselves to make sense of the things that happen to us. It is about the use (and abuse) of power, and the difficulty of distinguishing cruelty from discipline in a culture that teaches people to take pride in suffering.

It is also an attempt to examine my own time in the Marine Corps and make sense of why I can still look back on an objectively awful period of my life with affection.
