| I have been there for 4 deployments and I must say I like to watch the show just to pick apart to flaws. Seriously though, I saw very few snakes and shooting one in the OR was , well, incredibly unrealistic. I like the way they "try" to imitate the board walk. There are so many things wron... |

| You will also be suprised at how fast you will climatise. You will be wearing your jeans in no time while in KAF. Best food is served at the Asian mess but its very busy. The British mess is ok and the Canadian mess is pretty good but a fair distance from the center of KAF. Who will be looking after... |

| Well, looks like it's confirmed. Off to Afghanistan next month. I'm sure I can still post to CKA from there. Hey Zip, there is an internet package you can get to support your laptop, I think it is about 90 per month. There are also the welfare trailers with internet and phone. You could post to CKA... |

| You say you have seen our peacekeeping missions? Where? On the news? I have been involved in quite a few of these missions. Tell me where you were and when, maybe we ran into each other in say Haiti, Bosnia, Kosovo, Afghanistan, Macedonia....where? Documentaries are aplenty, I wouldn't go anywhere ... |

| Canada's Military is not simply there to defend Canada. It has the duty to support our foreign policy as well. Simply sitting back and watching as others around you suffer is very UN-Canadian don't you think. Sometimes the "defense of Canada" has to be conducted abroad. Please research th... |

| I think there are a few reasons why Canada is in Libya, protecting civilians is not close to #1. That spot belongs to "Justifying upgrading our fast air capability"; if we never use our aircraft why do we have to buy such exspensive new ones. Yeah I dont really think so. NATO and the UN a... |

| That doesnt really explain why we sit out of every other revolutionary/civil war. Touche'.. As I am not involved in the politcal aspects of war/conflict I can only suggest that military involvement in any given conflict abroad is based on a number of factors.

| I'm generally of the opinion that unless said dictator directly threatened Canada in some way we should be staying out of their business. I have never understood how the armed forces is standing on guard for Canada when off in some other land with which we have no direct contact. Don't we pay the a... |
