    Not to begrudge their excellent and fine service. That is a video of a varmint hunt, has been on the internet for quite some time. Although the video is not at this site, it does show similiar videos: http://www.rmvh.com/Scenes.htm

    Canadians are amongst our best allies for sure

    Well it does sound a bit cliches but it has a twist. She was the instigator of the whole thing and was also a memeber of our unit. In the end she was busted down a stripe and the Commander lost his chance of putting on "full bird" due to it. One of the Canadians was a Major, not sure what happened to him though.

    I thought I copied and pasted the story about that Canadian sniper making a shot at over 2000 meters or whatever the heck it was and uh...shooting varmints is shooting varmints no?
    some fella confronted me the other day and asked "What's your problem?" So I told him, "I don't have a problem I am a problem"

    I saw that before and while it is a very touching tribute I had to think "I hope no one in southern Ontario required emergency services that day"...
    some fella confronted me the other day and asked "What's your problem?" So I told him, "I don't have a problem I am a problem"

    That whole ceremony is not official in any way, it was a a very impromtu thing that started after the first Canadian died over there. The gov't didn't want the media at the repatriation ceremony, rightfully so, and several people started this gathering as the fallen troops passed under the overpass as a way to show their respects.
