He opened his mouth to a member of the Canadian Forces while in a bar.

As for wearing CADPAT, I know 3 people who wear their cadpat pants around town. 1 of them hunts in their CADPAT.

That's the core of the whole story right there.

I've seen some of the CadPat stuff that had been deemed "unserviceable"; some items were in fact severely damaged (rips, holes), faded, etc but a few items were there for stuff like stains. Sure, some stains will affect NIR performance or stuff link ink stains wont come out and look unsightly, but these items (mostly tunics) were still in the lot and perfectly usable for our ends; I have one of the shirts, after a lot of effort getting it clean you won't notice the stain unless you look for it.


Edit: all that stuff was 1st gen, exposed buttons and all; so beware of anything in a more recent cut if you want to be legit.

This stuff still had the bloody nametags and everything else. Like I said the entire kit was there boots and all and SUPPOSEDLY so were NVG's although I never got to see them.

He was a moron and deserved what he got. :D

Join the Canadian Forces.

Or the next best thing to have CADPAT uniform, get the Frontenac stuff.

Or pay a fistful to CPGEAR.

Okay so, you are required to hand over all of your issued kit to supply at the time of your departure from the CF. BUT!! Most supply techs will let you keep (Oops, let's just cross that out) certain kit items like BDUs, and boots.

Who cares if BDUs and boots are passed along? If it was a goretex jacket or a kevlar helmet, then I can see why it would be an issue. Personally I would not appreciate a pair of combat pants that had the inner thighs wore out from someone else, that's a lot of crotch sweat that went through that. These things are NOT JUST battle dress but also their DAY TO DAY uniform since the CF work dress was pooped on.

Combats MUST be turned in. Next-to-skin items like socks and underwear you can keep.

CP Gear is one retailer that sells Frontenac clothing..

None of the CADPAT clothing, Tac Vests, etc on CP Gear is issue gear.


The Chad, like Pugs said Combats must be turned in. All Operational/CADPAT clothing is returned when you release from the CF, you only get to keep next to skin items, boots and your DEUs.

Last I saw you had to turn in your combat boots as well, unless you mean your ankle boots and oxfords which yea you do keep.

Seems to be up to the fella behind the desk. I have exchanged boots many times, I have kept a few pairs, and gave a few back. They put a hole punch in the tongue of the boot and throw them in the surplus bin. As for parade boots and the oxfords, I have never had to bring them into supply, but I am under the impression we keep them when we are released.

With the issued combat boots the Supply person will determine the wear on the boots, if they are too worn out the member will retain them, but if they are in good condition still and are useable Supply will take them back and reissue them to someone else.

And yea oxfords and ankle boots you retain, same with all DEU items and whatever else you can find off that Logistik Unicorp site.

I love that site. Free t-shirts.

I wonder if I have enough points to order every turban in the warehouse. :D
