I seem to recall that during my time with 1 RCR (when they were still in in London Ontario) that we were told to not wear our jump smocks for a time because the unit had received complaints as the look was too "aggressive". I suspect that the complaints came from the UWO as we use to also get disparaging remarks (infrequently) shouted at us as we ran through the grounds during PT. This is the look that they did not like.
As a Western grad, accept my apology...

I walked out of a class where we were discussing WWI poetry and some individual began calling out all Canadian soldiers past and present as worthless slime... I reminded him he was in a building with the names of volunteer Western students killed in the World Wars from this very faculty on memorial plaques near the main entrance.
During my time there the views espoused by some of the profs and left-leaning students made my skin crawl.
Cheers from a Mustang who would be happy to have had PT through the campus.

For shits and giggles, I took a course in university that studied peace movement since the Crimean War. They brought in a guest speaker that explained how the US military forced its soldiers to watch pornography in boot camp to teach them to hate women. I happened to be sitting to an ex US Marine taking the course with me. Between the pair of us, we rather took the old bitch to task.
No wonder some of the students coming out of that place were fucktards.
