    G'day just moved from Canada to NZ

    Greeting's everyone! I have just moved to Palmerston North Linton Camp, previous i was in Edmonton Alberta Canada. I served 15 years in the Canadian Army and have just done a commonwealth transfer to the RNZIR. I have hunted Canada, UK, and the US a bit. Just trying to find may way around and learn the lingo. Anyway i will probably have some silly questions as i attempt my new Kiwi life!

    Onward mate.

    Originally from the great white north myself. (Huge Leafs fan&#128518
    Served a number of years in 2nd/1st battalion.
    You know, the one that holds the Pine Cone Trophy and wins all the Freyberg comps😆

    Pretty sure once you see the light, you can get posted there.

    Welcome to NZ. Hope you find it as awesome a place to live as I do.

    Welcome Neil. R93 is right on the money with his choice of battalion. Onward.

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    No He was SAS.............................Saturday and Sunday soldier. Or I prefer "lunchbox commando"

    For 2CANT to win the Freyberg, both regular battalions must have been somewhere out of the country.:sarge
