I would like to thank every one who has ever put on a uniform for this great country. You have gone and done as you where asked and made the supreme sacrifice. Politics aside I have the utmost respect for the people willing to put there lives on the line.
To all the men and woman on active deployment, keep your self safe and come back home safe to your families.

Great idea, many thanks to all in uniform.
A better plan (not to demean your suggestion in any way cpl_atc) might be to tell them directly via the Canadian Forces website.

This was a great idea! From what I hear the last count from my home town of Freshwater NF there were 9 guys curently serving overseas. I grew up with some of those guys. I'm sure a lot of you know someone serving or who have served. Thanks to our brave and selfless Canadian Armed Forces Men and Women.
God Speed!

Indeed a great idea to honour and remember our forces past and present.
Personally, I have a son that continues to serve this great country. I wonder as an aviator as I'm sure many of you do - just how different our perspective would be had we been born into the WWII era....... how many of us would have the "mustard" so to speak, to meet the challenges associated with avaition combat?
I like to think we'd all join together and lay our petty differences aside for the common good. My experience even in civil aviation has demonstrated the existance of a very tight knit, proffessional group of individuals. I think it goes without saying that if push came to shove, our current CAF members would be joined by each and every one of us if the need arose.
Be safe keeping the peace brothers.....we are forever grateful

Thank you Grimey for the bump - I had no idea the other thread existed. I hereby withdraw my comments above regarding what I believed to be a "brotherhood" within the aviation field. Words cannot, nor will ever describe my sheer disappointment in so many.......I truly can't believe what I read.oldenoughtoknowbetter wrote:Indeed a great idea to honour and remember our forces past and present.

Never have I been so humiliated to call myself part of this sector, and at the same time a Canadian......I'm afraid attitudes expressed are a dismal example of just how pathetic the synergies have become in this country. Truly, truly pathetic.......again, beyond words!!
FWIW to ALL Canadians Forces personel - there are still a few of that DO care and appreciate your valour!

After a re-read of the thread with lower blood pressure, it is clear "Dash-Ate" & "swede" are the focus of the bleeding heart mentality that draws my ire.
Many other great posts in support of our troups and our worthy cause - THANK YOU for that!
To Dash-Ate & swede.......well, let's just say that the day I'd need to call on you two as "wing men" - in simple terms, you'd NEVER get the call! Rest easy behind Jack's skirt!
