    A quick question for Anbrin then. Explain to me how it's possible, that less than 3,000 Canadian troops with "inferior training and equipment" (and that's not just combat personnel) managed to take and hold the Panjwai district for nearly the entire Afghan campaign where more than 10,000 US and coalition forces failed (notice I included coalition forces). For those of you who don't know what Panjwai is or was, it was one of the most deadly and volatile areas in Afghanistan during the peak fighting of the campaign, and arguably still is. The US and coalition forces were forced to abandon nearly every attempt to place a foothold in Panjwai until Canada stepped in and held the area long enough to establish FOB's (forward operating bases) and eventually a center of operations for the district. Incidentally, this is also where our highest casualties were sustained during the war...
    Our military, despite it's size, has been lauded by foreign governments and military's (both allied and enemy) for nearly a hundred years as one of the most professional and reliable in history. Germans feared us, in both world wars as shock troopers. Allies respect our ability to do the impossible (ie. Vimy Ridge) and do so at a minimal loss of life. We are also the ONLY 1st world military that makes a true effort to rebuild and support those nations we enter under campaign, with the full understanding that not every single domestic wants us dead. The result is that the Panjwai district's population just this past year under force of their own arms pushed the remaining Taliban and other "insurgents" out and are now vigilant about keeping them out. Can you say the same for your military, can any other military on this planet say the same? The short answer is NO. These are all historic FACT, documented and in some cases televised.
    I am a current serving member of the CAF, I also lived in the US for several years previously, and loudmouth, self-opinionated, know-nothing scumbags like you Anbrin are a part of your country's problems. Those in the US who acknowledge their allies and appreciate them are the only hope you people have for the future. Consider that for a while...

    How does it work if a soldier has glasses in the CAF ,does he squeeze them under the paintball and gaz masks, and whenever you need protective lens , do you squeeze them under or can you have protective lens adapted to your prescription ? I wonder everytime i see the trainings. Can you even be in the infantry with glasses.

    • @Jenkychan
      @Jenkychan 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @IndustrialMilitia 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The 3 Regiments themselves are all equivalent in regards to how elite they are. However, the 3rd Battalion of each Regiment is either an airborne and air assault battalion (as in the case of 3RCR) or has an airborne and air assault company (as in the case of 3PPCLI and 3R22R). From there you can also take the patrol pathfinders course, which doesn't actually put you in anymore of an elite unit I think (unless the 3rd battalions specifically have a patrol pathfinder company or platoon), but is a very elite course and a good course to complete if you're interested in CSOR, which is the Canadian Special Operations Regiment. It's the 2nd tier special operation forces in Canada, with JTF2 being the 1st tier.

    No you are wrong.

    I think everyone has to serve once as a NCM to be able to become an officer, and to become a specialized unit such sniper or anti vehicle personal you just have attend multiple different course relating to field. That's from some light reading on the subject I could be wrong.

      @greyman686 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      No you do not need to serve as an NCM to become an officer. Snipers and Anti Vehicle Personel are not a unit but people within units like the PPCLI, RCR etc.

      to expand a little, you can become and officer by commissioning through the ranks, however you will have to make it all the way to a CWO to do that.

      Dalton Nadeau You do not need to be a Chief Warrant Officer to CFR. You need a minimum of 10 years service and be a Sgt or above. There's other requirements however those are the basic ones.

    I guess mathematics is not your strong suit. Now, I notice you did not reply to my comment about Canada having the 3rd largest navy and 4th largest air force in the world during WW2. Canada's population was only 11 million. Plus, we were training Americans before they even entered the war. CAMP X!!

    The first war Canada ever fought was WW2 , up till then they were not a real country, but a Confederation of land ruled by the British. Plus 1812 was fought by a small British expeditionary force posted with Canada the people of the land was British. Also Vimy Ridge is a battle not a war.
