| Won't be available until the 2019 batch and that's only IF the system is developed? Makes me glad we didn't commit to buying these things yet. |

Regina Regina:

| Never had an instructor lean up against anything when he was jacking up a recruit. Why is she even trying to explain herself? She should just reply with simple; yes [insert instructor's rank here], or no [insert instructor's rank here]. |

| While it would seem impossible in one way for the CDC to lose to zombies, but it is entirely possible. Especially when you look at the different ways one can turn into a zombie, the spread of infection, how quick you turn into a zombie, the panic and hysteria, the relentlesness of the zombies, their... |

| If you take a close look at the dead soldier in the tank, he has a army airborne symbol on his left shoulder. Looked like he made his way inside the vehicle before he died. |

Was able to catch the encore presentation in full. Wow, I wonder how much more of the show will be from the graphic novels.  |

| I really enjoyed the first season, and can't wait for season 2. If you people really like the show, try picking up the graphic novel series. |

| Isn't the Osprey too large, in terms of wingspan, to be used on our frigates? Yeah it'd be great for land-based operations but we always seem to want ship-based capabilities as well so that's probably why no one's seriously considered it for purchase thus far. Who knows, maybe this will be the time... |

| The UK military isn't the only one that's gonna suffer from defense cuts, it's also their supplier. BAE Systems has announced it'll cut it's UK workforce by 3000 jobs because of cuts in military aircraft. |

| I took history during my elementary and secondary school years. I was in a french school board so the history of New France/Quebec took a more important role in their view. Not sure if there is an exception to french school boards to have them learn more about that part of Canadian history than the ... |

| The majority of the history classes that I had in school (both elementary and secondary) spent much of the time on the history of New France/Quebec. When it finally got to Confederation we had to fast track from there too until the school year ended, which was about five weeks. Confederation, war of... |

| Lemmy: Learn the names of all 71 recipients? No, that would of course be way too much. A simple mention of how many Canadians recieved the Victoia Cross with a few examples of soldiers and their exploits that got some of them the VC would've been nice. I was never taught that when I was in school, a... |
