  • Any military personnel around?

I'm currently doing a placement as a student teacher in an elementary school in Toronto and Remembrance (Veterans) day is coming up. I've called up the local legion and asked if there was anybody that could come into the school and speak to my students but they are all booked already. So I was wondering if there are any active military personnel who wouldn't mind doing a bit of a Q&A through Skype? If you are interested please message me. Cheers.

P.S. Good to see NF1 community still kicking :D

I'm US Navy  currently an AME1 (basically I work on ejection seats and survival gear ) would love to do this but unfortunatly I'm on my way out the door in a few days for a cruise. Have you tried calling up the local USO? They usally have people available 24/7 if this doesn't work try the recruiting station. PM me if neither of these work I can make a few phone calls

@fox: you got a pm

@zanon:  yes we made a diffrance but sometimes it hard to see. (or some just dont wanna see it ;) ). and no i dont think we waste our tax money. better we do the job their then wait for them to come to us. but thats my opinion.
