Dougie93 Posted February 27, 2022 Report Posted February 27, 2022 Tom Koch was a great guy tho he was like the real deal Terminator quiet, but he has a wry sense of hunmor and he was a super soldier, no doubt he just made one crazy mistake Quote
WestCanMan Posted February 27, 2022 Report Posted February 27, 2022 That would be a pretty scary bank robber. 1% of cops can deal with a guy like that.

Dougie93 Posted February 27, 2022 Report Posted February 27, 2022 same thing with Darnell Bass not an evil man at all he's highly intelligent and he was totally committed to the Airborne another great soldier who just wandered off the path into criminal enterprise in his wayward youth Quote

Dougie93 Posted February 27, 2022 Report Posted February 27, 2022 Clayton Matchee started out as this skinny Indian kid and he was socially awkward so he got picked on that made him into a bully but actually he was a coward like he would play the tough guy but if you stood your ground, he would start sucking up to you, trying to be your buddy Quote
Dougie93 Posted February 27, 2022 Report Posted February 27, 2022 Full Metal Jacket ? Gomer Pyle ? that's like Matchee 1 Quote

Dougie93 Posted February 27, 2022 Report Posted February 27, 2022 like I say, 1 RCR Recce Platoon Warrant Officer Carl Deroche was my boss Master Corporal Frank Mellish was my Det Commander good times Quote
Dougie93 Posted February 27, 2022 Report Posted February 27, 2022 General Jonathan Vance ? the CDS now charged with obstruction ? he was Major Vance, our DCO Quote
Dougie93 Posted February 27, 2022 Report Posted February 27, 2022 Petawawa was kind of intimidating when you first got there Home of the Warriors Home of the Airborne Sassy's but actually, once you live there for awhile it's a really nice community people took me in, treated me like family Quote
Dougie93 Posted February 27, 2022 Report Posted February 27, 2022 1 RCR can be a grind 1 RCR is relentless 1 RCR doesn't cut you any slack 1 RCR can be a harsh realm Never Pass A Fault but it's like being on an elite sports team like being on the Leafs so you are driven to keep the standard up, no matter what they throw at you Quote
Dougie93 Posted February 27, 2022 Report Posted February 27, 2022 (edited) but like the craziness you are experiencing now with the government ? you are in a kind of prison camp at the mercy of the federal government ? this is what it's like this is what it's like to be RCR in Petawawa VRI Pro Patria Edited February 27, 2022 by Dougie93 Quote

Tom Koch would be a scary bank robber Tom Koch was scary, intense like 6'4" 225 lbs he wore glasses, he had a square jaw, he was in superb shape he could easily kill you with his bare hands but he was calm, cool, collected, didn't show much emotion like if we were ROFL, Tom would just crack a smile, maybe let out one "ha !" he was like something out of an action movie but from what I know, Tom just supplied the guns Bass and some Militia guy did the actual robbery I read in the papers that he was in on it, years afterwards I liked him tho, he was fun to hang with, and I looked up to him Edited February 27, 2022 by Dougie93 Quote
Army Guy Posted March 3, 2022 Author Report Posted March 3, 2022 Here is an article from the CBC, yes even they agree something has to be done with our military, due to our new unstable times.... For years, people in the defence community have been warning that the next big war would be a "come as you are" event — with each nation showing up and fighting with what it has. According to several defence analysts, Canada's four-decade old CF-18s would be vulnerable to Russia's modern S-400 Triumf air defence system. You know it is bad when experts claim that our navy is one of the best equipped among our military, sad really when those ships which were last updated in 2014, with the first ship being built in 1987. I just want to add this all those wpns they have been sending over to Ukraine they are out of DND inventory, which is not all that large , and as of today no new contracts have been let to replace any of that... Quote The army and air force were a different story. Only 65.4 per cent of army equipment and vehicles were considered serviceable — a steep decline from the previous budget year. The air force could muster only 60.8 per cent of its fleet for active service in the 2019-20 timeframe. Canadian troops in Afghanistan used a phrase cribbed from the Americans to describe the Ottawa establishment's approach to the war: "The army is at war and the nation is at the mall." Canada's troop commitment to eastern Europe is exposing weak points in its military | CBC News Quote We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have now done so much for so long with so little, we are now capable of doing anything with nothing.
Army Guy Posted March 7, 2022 Author Report Posted March 7, 2022 (edited) It seems the globe and mail have also put out an article , that might shed some light on our military spending " hell must be freezing over" it seems the most of the media are now seeing clearly now that something must be done, the question remains what will Canadians do, and then what will our government do... my answer is i don't have any faith in either of them, and we will remain at the status quo... maybe next PM... keep your chin up and stick on the ice DND Canada may finally have the political will to strengthen our depleted defence capacity | John Ibbitson - Canadian Politics (headtopics.com) Maybe we could give Ukraine our F-18's , and the US could give us some F-16 as well...
