I hate the way the Generals and the officers incharge made Tpr. Kyle Brown a scapegoat, thats the new military, not only in Canada, but everywhere. The brass rather blame someone else then damage their career, even if that means ruining someone elses life. The old days were the good ones, when a leader took the blame for his tropps' actions. Lead by example. It's nice to have a corrupt society.

And the disbandment of the Airborne by the Liberals...sh!t. The CAR was a symbol to the Canadian military, it was our elite regiment, fast response, camo wearing, maroon beret'd and jump wings...the best of the best. then Chretien had to be the retard he is and get them "dismantled", as he put it. Hopefully the Liberals wont come in power after the elections in a couple of weeks.
