DoktorLoken posted:You drank hand sanitizer? That might be worse than knowing someone used it as lube. Putting salt in hand sanitizer separates the alcohol from the gel, from what I've been told. It's also real popular amongst the Inuit up in the Canadian territories.

My mom rejoined the Canadian Air Force after 4 or 5 years, which has similar rules(after three years you gotta redo everything) and when she was sworn in they promoted her back to warrant and sent her on her merry way. This was in a small trade and she knew the career manager pretty well.

Nerdfest X posted:"Chit" is a navy term that refers to certain documents. No-shave chit, LLD chit, 72 hour liberty chit, special request chit, etc. Basically a chit waives you from certain regulations for a set amount of time. No-shave chits could be open-ended AFAIK. Not just a navy term. It's used by the entire CF to describe your medical restriction sheet.

Fraser CDN posted:Im not sure im talking about the oily decontamination packets. They were blue and if memory serves me right( its been 5 years) they said for training use on them. Ya my last run through on CBRN the refresher, the trainers said that the only difference between training RSDL and real RSDL is that the training packet is blue and the real RSDL is green. Who knows, he could've been full of poo poo.

I wonder if all armies use lovely stoves. I know the CF does. We use lovely old Coleman stoves and if you get someone who doesn't know all the tricks to lighting it, it'll more than likely go up in a huge fireball. Some of them are easy to light and keep going but most of them are giant pieces of poo poo.

Samu posted:Well we use those in field troops/platoons for our 10 man tents provided you're from a mechanized company and can haul them around. If you're dismounted you have a 2 burner Coleman stove in your toboggan that does literally nothing. Not entirely true, all I've ever had was Coleman stoves and a lantern and the artillery has trucks everywhere we go.

thehumandignity posted:How would one have access to a camera, the internet, civilian clothes, or a "barrack room" in any week of basic training? Officer basic and some non-commissioned member basics have private rooms. Also depending on your instructors you might be allowed to use your cell phone at night. I know I was.

It's like being known as the guy who poo poo his pants, except way more embarassing but it comes with the fringe benefit of never having to babysit. Because nobody wants you near their kids. You know, because they're worried that you're a pedophile.

Genocide Tendency posted:Wait.. People buy computers on credit? I got a laptop on credit once when I was in training because mine got smashed and since we were confined to base I couldn't go out and buy a regular priced one. Only reason I got it on credit was because of the 0% interest rate that the CanEx offers and so I could have money to get drunk on the weekend

Samu posted:One of the few things I remember from basic is when we were being taught hand signals, the French INT corporal who was in charge of us stood up, patted his head and screamed at the top of his lungs while standing in the middle of a group of 45 Privates "EVERYBODY! COME ON ME!". French people are the best for this. I had a French warrant and he was yelling at us for something or other and he yelled out "YOU THINK I KNOW gently caress NOTHING, I KNOW gently caress ALL". It was really hard not to laugh at that.
