The now disbanded (and disgraced) Airborne Regiment of Canada t-shirt; nice touch, good reminder.
@jameskhan68 ай бұрын
It's not the Airborne Regiment tshirt. That one is different and has the Cap badge of the Canadian Airborne Regt on it. These maroon shirts are just for Canadian Airborne soldiers that do the course or are in jump companies

Amazing how there are actual serving soldiers in the Canadian Army, both Regular and Reserve, just dying to get a Jump course, and they give it to teen-aged cadets. Not cool. And for those 16-year olds who got the course, well I guess you may technically be entitled to wear the maroon Airborne t-shirt, but maybe, just maybe it should stay neatly folded in your dresser until you've actually become a soldier and served in an operational Parachute Company.

I did my Jump Course as a Canadian Army Cadet , then multiple tours in the Australian Army. If you're saying those t-shirts should only be for Operational Airborne Units. Does that mean those units actually jumped in Combat? I'm curious when the last Canadian Infantry unit jumped into action? So maybe, just maybe most of us need to put our t-shirt on the shelf.

I was on this course in 1977 (Serial 7711) at CABC Edmonton: 3 weeks pre-para PT (& this afternoon 6 months of my own personal PT - I practically had muscles on my breath!) followed by 1 week at the Mountain Outward Bound school, and then Jump School. best summer of my life.

I led the detachments from the 12th Special Forces Gp that flew NOE in 2 US SOF CM-130s up to Edmonton CFB in 1976 to participate in a joint training operation with the Canadian Airborne Regiment (part of which was to become qualified in Canadian airborne operations / and the Canadians in ours). At the end of the operation, we were awarded our Canadian Parachute Badges and the Canadians were awarded ours in a shared ceremony on the parade ground. I can assure you that every American proudly wears those Canadian jump wings with fond memories of the time we served side-by-side with the "Gallant Men of the Great White North."

@martinroy27093 жыл бұрын
The beauty of getting these wings as an army cadet is if you join the Canadian Armed Forces, you are permitted to wear these on your reg force uniform since you are recognized as being basic jump wing qualified :)

Great effort. The only problem I have with this is that the cadets are NOT AIRBORNE and neither are the CIC/COATS adults staff. "Airborne" is reserved for soldiers and these people are NOT soldiers. The comment that the there is "a mission" still to complete after landing is not true. They should NOT be wearing AIRBORNE tee-shirts.
