| Cadet Moderator | Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Shilo, Manitoba. If I'm right, it's an Artillery base. |

| Optio | It's a pretty small base actually but we have a tremendously large training area, thats why militaries from around the world come to our base, the germans just left after serving here a few years and now there is talk about the french army coming to use our training area(we don't shoot in the summer, too many fires :P ) GUNNER |

| Cadet Moderator | 4 Wing Cold Lake, AB is pretty much the same for training area. Air Forces from around the world use it for training exercises. CFB Gagetown has a rather large weapons range as well. I think that base is Arty as well. |

| Optio | No CFB Gagetown is not an ARTY base, it only has one Artillery battery, it is a training base so it trains every trade pretty much, it is a fairly large base though. GUNNER
