My Brigade will be participating in an exercise at Canadian Forces base Wainwright starting in April. A few thousand Canadian and some American National Guard and Reserve units will also participate. Even some Utah Army National Guard special forces units will participate as well. I think they will participate as both the opposing force and the Blue Force. Maple Resolve is Canada's biggest military exercise. This will be my second exercise at Canadian Forces base Wainwright in the province of Alberta, Canada

They really take care of us. Last year, they gave us SUVs with satellite radio to drive around our base. They will give us 15 passenger minivans to take our Advance party when we arrive at the airport. Those are rental vans as well the local rental agencies. They pay for everything up in Canada. We paid for the shipping of the stuff up to Canada and they pay for the shipping of the stuff going back to the USA. No money exchanges hands.

Spent a couple months up there with 72nd Engr Co supporting the 197th. What a blast! Our brothers to the north and the English know how to train... and know how to party.

One time our Armor Battalion sponsored a Canadian Unit and it was reciprocated. When the Canadians arrived we sent them to the field and gunnery. When our soldiers went to Canada they partied their asses off.

General order number one applies for us and Canadian can smoke pot 8 hours before shift due to their leadership allowing pot nationally starting October of last year. Not a good leadership move by prime minister Trudeau. Anyways, we are not allowed to partake in pot smoking and we will not drink at all. Still, we have the Judge Advocate General along with us so if problems come up up, we are prepared
