First post on these forums... with pictures.

[-[Crosshair]-]

Hey there, I'm Gus. I'm new here but assuming from the name, I guess I can post military pictures? :D I'm in the Canadian Forces reserves (not much keeping me from transfering to the regular forces, to be honest), came back from a week of training south of the border in Mississippi with the americans. Have some pictures. Ironically, a Canadian Forces ad is playing on the TV behind me as I type this.

And some americans.


I was down there for a week, deprived from women (except fat black girls working everywhere there) and there was this HOT CASHIER CHICK that worked at the PX. She wore a white unbuttoned polo shirt the last day I was. Big ****s, blonde, beautiful girl... CADPAT hides *****s pretty well (kidding. ...they hide them terribly). So anyways I just kept finding excuses to go to the PX and buy stuff. I ended up buying ACUPAT trousers, shirt, patrol cap and two boonie hats (a second one for my dad). Some tan shooting gloves, some light gray/blue cotton gloves to put under my combat leather gloves during winter. I also bought a 3-color desert camo pillow there and a desert camo quilt. The quilt was 1.47 USD... what a steal.

That's the ACUs. I just ordered some name tapes. "Gus" for the patrol cap, "Gus" for the shirt and "Dr Pepper" instead of "US Army", because there's no way in hell I'm putting "US Army" there when I'm not part of it. I bought some pirate (skull + 2 crossing swords at the bottom) velcro patches to put instead of a rank and unit patch. They resemble the Calico Jack patches the US Navy Seals use.

There's a Domino's Pizza stand on the camp right next to where we slept at there. Some people come during lunch time and make it run. We missed the bus to chow one day so we ate at the Domino's there. (I love how there are Dr Pepper vending machines everywhere in the US... there are NONE here in Canada.)

Err... random picture.

Inspecting/cleanage of the C7A1.

That was before boarding the plane at Gulfport to go back to Canada. They search your stuff and it takes a hell of a lot of time.

http://crosshair.li3n.com/pv07-5.jpg

The military Airbus we took to go back home. Took 3 hours from Mississippi to the airport in Quebec city. We took a military C130 Hercules cargo plane to go down there. Took 5.5 hours, we were sitting on two rows that were facing eachother, in nets. We had to learn how to walk when we finally stood up. It was loud as **** and we had to wear earplugs. No place to do ****, either. It sucked but I love the Army.

Me with my 3-color desert camo pillow in front of the Airbus. That plane is ****ing sweet, I got some nice sleep in it.
