What is exactly is the FFL classified as? Are they light infantry (similar to Army Rangers, etc) or are they commandos (similar to US Army SF, etc). I don't really understand what they were designed for, what mission tasks they are assigned, etc.

if you are in the army gop and they send you off to a survival course that's worth anything you get to live off the land for a few days or go hungry.  you'd love the canadian army's arctic survival course where you learn among other things that you are not the top of the food chain polar bears are.

I think GOP is a marine or navy guy (the whole SEAL thing).  I've heard that the marines have a pretty good survial course.

Nah, I'm pretty much out of the game according to the Defense Department (freakin' MEPS sobs). I got options though...most Police Dept's will take me. If not there, then a degree in Journalism would be really cool...possibly get to cover conflicts or be an embed with our troops. FBI, DEA, Park Ranger...anything that offers adventure and gets me outdoors. Not that anyone cares, just thought I'd write about it
