Dutch soldiers in Bosnia were fined 50 Euro if they were caught red handed smoking cannabis on tour. Came up during conversation many moons ago. I'm sure if the dutch have managed to keep a military going with the introduction of pot, Canada will manage too.
A few months ago they cracked down on the Transgender community using barbaric tactics even for an Islamic country.It appears to be a growing trend in the country. https://www.cnn.com/2018/01/29/asia/indonesian-forcibly-shaved-transgender-women-intl/index.html
Scared the crap out of me today. Huge envelope full of paper.....I was happy to see a old friend on the cover....but that drive home from the post office was scary!
Thank you kindly for the info. I also want to thank everyone who reached out to me via the private message route. As someone who was locked up on a mental ward here in Newfoundland; these places look like the Hilton. Frankly I need help dealing with the trauma of my experiences there now too. I...
I'm out east. Homewood keeps coming up so I may look towards that route. When I hit rock bottom I called VAC from the locked down psychiatric hospital, however they basically didn't help me in any way shape or form.It's great getting some direction and help here now that I'm able to fend for...
Hey all. Had a few hospitalizations for using too much drugs with my PTSD. Ended up in a scary psych ward a few times at my absolute rock bottom. As I climb back from it (without addictions now thankfully) I'm wondering if there are any good treatment centers or programs anyone has used that was...
Meanwhile recce Sqn was dismounted doing infantry stuff. Employment of armd recce in the battlefield was near non existent as they were employed as a battalion up in Argandab. Many times we asked for their over-watch capabilities etc but they could never supply a patrol due to their...
Give me a toyota helix and a pair of Binos and I'd be a happy recce soldier in Astan. Recce can be done from any Vehicle' and contrary to popular belief we do dismount as required to complete the job. My favorite vehicle I have done recce with was a route recce mounted in a leo 2. Best recce...

Seen this new directive. The terrorist have already won.
Hey guys seen this today and found it slightly disturbing. Does this not read to you guys like a current serving staff officer is amazed someone is having issues with something he did not? To me it seems like a dig at the young guy who did have problems. I can't help but wonder what would happen...
So what happened next.
5 years later and quite honestly the PTSD has gotten worse instead of better. I'm like that piece of meat that keep's on living. Suicidal daily however I could never do that to my children. This isnt thier pain to share in. That being quite frankly the only reason I am...
:boring:
It's far from a inside outside the wire rant. I think we had it rather easy and enjoyed it; infact I made a reference to that. 3 meals a day and a sleeping bag regardless; whats to hate about that.
Ignore away.
Complaining that a Snr NCO had to live with his peer's in a slightly small room and that it should be brought to media attention doesn't turn your "be an ass" switch on I guess. It does with me.
