Boy am I glad to hear he made it out safe and sound. The fact they managed to get 88000 people out in a matter of hours is nothing short of astounding. Tell you friend thank you for the well wishes. We haven't been deployed yet, and no word as to whether my unit will go (we did last year to...

Done. :)

I remember when this came out. I almost cried in joy when Chris announced Star Citizen.

Yeah Cosmic, it's freaking scary. The entire city, 80000+ residents evacuated. Whole neighbourhoods gone. A majority of those people are here in Edmonton now. There are evacuation centers set up. The people of the province are really pulling together to help the displaced.

Yeah man. I spent the entire day playing with my baby, hanging with my wifey, and chilling with my broguy. Going to go about life as usual for the time being. God willing, they won't need us.

So we have officially been told to go home, spend time with our families, and take our post-exercise leave...but keep our phones on. As it stands, the federal government has commited the CF to assist with the tragedy. We're just waiting to find out in whst capacity that will be. Thanks for...

Haha, good advice Rock Boss. I'll be sure to pass that pertinent info into the boys. :P :D We haven't been given any official word as of yet, so I'm going to go home after a long month gone, kiss my wife, hug my baby, and shower a months worth of field grime off of my body. If the phone rings...

You'd be amazing at how fast a couple thousand troops with shovels, picks, and chainsaws can make a fire...

Right. And booze. Haha. Challenge accepted

Nope. Spent all my money on digital ships. *sniffle*

That about precisely describes my feeling right now. Haha

It will! You dick. Haha. I'll have to stay alive now. Well played brother, well played.

Heading home for now. State of emergency hasn't been declared yet.

Hahaha, what's wrong with Dad bod? ;)

Thanks lads. It's not easy when it's suffering of any sort. It's especially not easy when it's in your backyard. @Dalarast nailed that one on the head. From what I, understanding, the provincial government may be requesting aid from the armed forces tomorrow. We should know by end of play...
