Really smart of the Chretien liberals to completely strip British Columbia of regular army resources when they are probably going to be needed there first 😢
Spent 2 summers there. Hated it when I arrived but miss those days running around , blowing sh t up and playing silly bugger. Remember being hungry all the time and liking all the free food
Hi Everyone, thank you so much for sharing your video. I ♥️ LOVED IT. I am so proud of all of you trying to keep peace . May God be all of you now and always. LINDA. ❤️⚘️❤️
Thank god the senior idiots go to the tactics school to learn how to make stuff go boom. Engineers looked good crackfilling. Everyone hates the engineers.
Kids stay away from that shit hole,get a good job and go to college don't waste your time.i was in the military years ago.left in 2000.best thing I ever did. If you would like to be around backstabbing and asskissers and soldiers who will do anything to one up you,good luck.and trust know one.
they forgot to mention they also have the honour of canvassing the entire base grounds for cigarrette butts and garbage every week....truly an honourable venture....thank you for ur service ...lol
I went to the Argonaut CTC last summer and was going to be staffing this year but unfortunately due to Covid it was canceled. I hope to do it next year as that is my favourite CTC I’ve been to in all of my years as a Sea Cadet
@@marcusaetius9309 First, the ellipsis at the end of everything you type doesn't make you look profound. You say you're speaking of what "is". Okay, I'll humor you: You have essentially said that water is wet and trying to pretend that this is sage wisdom. Militaries by definition are political tools of government. Very impressive observation. Moving along, militaries, being political tools of government, need places to be stationed and to train. This is why we have bases, and it's worked for militaries for as long as history has been recorded. How are bases useless? Can you explain that to me? Could you also explain for whom you are saying a base is useless for?
Bojan Milankovic When a military becomes so politically correct through the interference and policies of the politicians then it becomes a mere expensive facade that is worse than having no military because the population is under the impression that they actually have a functioning military when in fact they don’t. I was in the CF myself years ago and it was obvious even then. Perhaps you should focus on the message instead of the commenting style of the commentators”.........”.
@@CaptainRexCT-7567 -Showing you don't know zip about goose-stepping or drill. There are three types of drill. Severe, like the Germans, Romanians, Russians, Koreans, etc. MIddle- like the Canadians, Brits, Aussies, etc. Then the sloppy/lazy type drill, like the French and Americans. Doesn't mean they are lazy - its just their style.
@@LanielPhoto exactly yall look stupid and goofy with that outdated drill As a U.S MARINE we drill like a modern warriors smooth and crisp and no nonsense that why nobody take those brit guards serious but I get it take it easy brother
@@CaptainRexCT-7567 - I was stationed in NAS Pensacola for 2 years. Saw plenty of marines drill there, as well as sailors. Modern warrior drill ???? . You mean lazy looking, Not that the marines or sailors are lazy as individuals by any means. As for the Brits - depends on what regiment you are talking about. Highland regiments tend to march slower, lift their legs less. Queen's guards are hype, but sharp. If we go to the tomb of the unknown soldier the US Army drills well - though they do look like they are very stiff and robot-like. guess its a mater of taste, habit and what we are use to. Just look at the lazy drill of the Air Force aerobatic team as compared to the precise drill of the Blue Angels. The sharp Navy salute as compared to the lazy hand dragging of the US Air Force. Anything else ?
I wonder if CFB Gagetown would happen to know what unit my brother is associated to since is Electrical mechanical engineering unit and former Army reservist from 11th service Battalion in Victoria BC

I coined the phrase "Shut'er down Gagetown"

First time I went to the base cafeteria, there was crab... a lot of crab. 😛
80k isn't affordable guys. Sorry.

Springbok in summer - the mosquitoes and black flies will eat you alive !
Don't forget the agent orange put there by the stupid Americans
first thing when i saw this was "GET A SHAVE BUD!"
How has Agent Orange contamination been cleaned up?
I was there with the US Army back in 1992 I believe. Plenty of red dust, lol.
Whole lot of familiar faces in that video.

Are the women held to a much lower standard than the men? They sure as heck were when I went through BRT in 1996.

Swamps on hills, amnesty bushes, and severe lack of jump rucks.

If you've applied to other then infantry, yes they do.

Try Whitehorse ;)

Bases are useless if the military is just a political tool of the government.....
This comment isn't nearly as big brained and thoughtful as you think it is.
Bojan Milankovic What I “think” is irrelevant, I speak of what is....

did you FORGET the Black Watch i was there in 1965 didnt see rcr there get it right.
Black watch is gone.. sort of. No longer a Reg Force unit. TI believe 2 RCR have picked up a lot of the traditions. Maint Coy- 1992-1997
i gotta do my sq there soon. first ill be based at kingston
Great video - but the drill looked awful sloppy! I would not have inserted that into this video. I've seen better drill even in the Air Force!
Yall drill like Nazi's and dont care about your knees lol

@@LanielPhoto The Israelis have sloppy drill too but no one in their right mind wants to fuck with them.
How about an update, who wants to watch something more than five years old. Not to good, rather boring.
Nothing has changed. It is still miserable. Should have joined air force.
18:54 she was once in truth duty valour on one of the boot camp episodes
