| I am Canadian and I have family (and friends) in the military and that is not how we all feel, I would suggest there is some frustration and grumblings but that is normal in all armies. If you posted that as a joke 100% then fine, haha. (not posted in the joke thread though) But if you posted that suggesting that is how the whole Canadian military feels or thinks you are and your friend are wrong. Friendly fire happens to all armies, you think IF we had the AF doing these strikes that we would be 100% free of friendly fire? No we would not be. Friendly fire happens its a fact, always has and always will happen no matter who is pulling the trigger.

| Friendly fire unfortunately does happen, but fortunately it is a rare thing. I think it all comes down to FAC procedures. Aircraft should not drop if they are unsure of the target. Unfortunately there are certain nations in Theatre that occassionaly play fast and loose with this directive. |

| Friendly Fire? The difference between "Has your name on it" and "To whom it may concern" is zero. Please stop peeing on my leg. The damn cartoon is funny. You can laugh now.

| Good thing Hussars has not commented in this forum again. He would go into his beliefs that it is the objectives of all other nations till kill Canadain Troops and that is not really "Friendly Fire"! Friendly Fire what a shitty name. How can fire from anyone be "Friendly"
