NCAF HQ.

(Chief of the Defence Staff): "I swear those KDF people just ceases to amaze me."

(General May): "Yes indeed, their Special Operations Group are the "best of the best"? despite the fact their mere conscripts, ha, how silly are they."

(Admiral Kirk): "Well lets not dabble into the Special Forces topic again, as we did decide not to go ahead with it."

(General Thornton): "Right now lets go over the information that the ROD has given to the College of Military Strategy, im sure that the professors and strategists there has figured out on how these tactics work."

College of Military Strategy, Ottawa.

In the Colleges main studies, the library is littered with books and papers, as the professors and strategists are comparing the info that they acquired by the ROD, to the NCAF doctrines, to find any validity to this.

(Professor Brandon): "Oh uh Sir, I, I did not notice you three where here?"

(General May): " Well we did say we where coming Professor, but it looks like you guys where busy, anything from the RODs info you found that may help our armed forces?"

(Professor Brandon): "Yes we did, mostly the Move and Shoot tactics we found in the US Army manual, I believe that this could work. but that will be up to the New Canadian Warfare Standards Council to decide if these tactics are worth issuing to the infantry, but it does show promise."

(General May): "Good."

(Professor Brandon): "I have also taken a look at this new Special Forces thing that the rest of the world is doing from the internet, aside from the rather...Hard training program, the selection process is what puzzles me, they seem to draw their recruits from the Army, Navy, and Airforce, normally it should be assigned to only one branch of the military, if we did develop a Special Forces unit for the NCAF, what branch should such a unit be assigned too?"

(Admiral Kirk): "Definitely not the RCN, as our personal are only trained in Ship to Ship combat on the open sea, not fighting on land."

(General May): "The RCAF is not a good candidate for a Special Forces unit to be assigned too, sure we have the Canadian Airborne Regiment but they are only used to hold ground ahead on the New Canadian Army, they cannot fight on their own without back up, plus they are just regularly trained troops."

(General Thornton): "The New Canadian Army its possible for the Special Forces unit to be assigned too but that will require a seperate training course. But however the NCAF Council has decided to not pursue this Special Forces Idea, so put that idea away Professor."

(Professor Brandon): "Of course sir, despite it being a good idea I'll agree with the NCAF councils decision on the matter, though this info could also help us counter aginest the enemy's Special Forces unit, but i need to do some more research on this in order to come up with a decent tactic to beat them."

(General May): "Good now get back to work."

My offer to send you US Army field manuals still stands. I know you would prefer British or Canadian doctrinal references, but surely any doctrine is better than no doctrine.

Sure you can send me the US Army field manuals are they on PDF?.

Read FM 7-8 Infantry Rifle Platoon and Squad first. It will teach you the basics for small units that you can build off of. I have it in pdf if you can't find it on that website.

But they still have to acquire both those Cannabis licenses to use the plant and any Cannabis based products, which is obtained though all health Canada facilities across the country.

College of Military Strategy Ottawa.
The New Canadian Warfare Standards Council in a recent review of the FM 7-8 book has recently approved the move and shoot tactic, the first regiment that will receive this is the Princess Patrica's light infantry, once they return from Syria.

The NCWS Council is now in the discussion what counter measures, the NCAF should employ aginest enemy Special Forces units? this comes a week after the Armed Forces Council has rejected the idea of forming such Special Forces units for the NCAF due to lack of evidence of their usefulness.

Did you even read FM 7-8? There is an awful lot of information in that manual.. If you read it, you will find things like forms of offensive maneuver, types of defensive operations, movement formations (file, wedge, etc), movement techniques (traveling overwatch, bounding overwatch, etc), how to cross a linear danger area, how to patrol, operations orders......

I'm not trying to bust your chops here, but there is a lot of information out there that will help you learn to fight. Start with the squad and platoon level, and then once you have a firm grasp of basic tactics you can get bigger and bigger. You're deploying multiple regiments of troops into combat, but your guys don't even know how to tactically cross a road.

It's no use, refleg. They don't know how to tactically use a fanned latrine. There is reason to doubt they know what a latrine us. Probably just foul the corner of a stairwell, the way the French used to do in Versailles.

Yes Ive read the FM 7-8 Redleg, mainly on the Platoon Section, as the NC Armys infantry functions to that level, but not to a section, nor fire team since they lack radios, as seen in the TO&E for infantry regiments, essentially im trying to keep the infantry grouped together for the max amount of firepower they can dish out.

Yep! Squeeze 'em all together so a couple arty rounds can take 'em ALL out.

The Armed Forces Council Members are startled by how the mission in Aleppo is deteriorating quite badly. the council members are trying to figure out how to earn the trust of the locals, but since the Special Forces Idea was rather impossible for the NCAF, they will have to find an alternative for such units, one idea could be to give the Military Police some basic language skills, and be deployed slightly ahead of the Regular Forces in order to act as some form of Peace Officers to the locals asking them if they seen any Militants as of late and who is suspecting of being a militant, hopefully when they see these guys being policeman they will earn their trust and allow the New Canadian forces stationed outside to move in, and maybe assist them in rooting out the militants. should be far more safer and more legal, then a Spec Ops unit.

This will work so quickly, in a week or two, a Canadian will be elected Mayor or regional governor....
. I remember when the CoC was so warmly received by those in other territories in what is now New Canada. The forces of the CoC where there to provide stability. It ensure that various territories did want to join with others to form New Canada. We were not destroying cities, killing hundreds. The CoC was requested to be there by many including some of the Nation Territories.
. But in this case, the Canadians don't speak the language, follow the religion, come in to Aleppo, leave abandoning the city. Return, then abandon it again. Then return. Yes, the citizens of Aleppo will have full faith and trust in the Canadians when Al Kabab or some other group will remain.
. What should the Canadian military do? If they want to make a difference, they will need to think strategically. What is the endurance of the Canadian army and government leadership.
