Free-DUM I would not waste my time with people like Alvin. As the saying goes, “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.” He has become so entrenched in backwardness that there will never be any change. Sad.

Congratulations to the three Regiment NCO’s. The training will not only beneficial to the Regiment but it also increased their personal skills. Let us hope that others – Regimental or otherwise – will follow their example.

Grenada much larger in size and population than Bermuda – If they don’t have conscription, the fact its larger and has a larger population is exactly why it doesn’t have to rely on conscription.

Mr. Williams the sad thing about you is that you claim to represent Labour and Progressive party yet you are anything but Labour and extremely regressive.

You are the kind of person that cost the PLP their leadership and I truly do hope that you can think about what it truly is you stand for.

Query,…..Grenada much larger in size and population than Bermuda..Do they have conscription or volunteer military service?

Coast guard or navy to patrol 21 sq. miles of land mass and the waters surrounding it? That will be an even bigger waste of money. No any military presence will always be land base. Why is it so hard for Bermuda to accept that as far as military service is concern we are only talking about part time service; less than the time some countries experience with a national guard.

And while you’re at it, sell Warwick Camp and build a hotel there. Relocate the regiment to St. Davids- plenty of empty land up there.

This makes more sense for the Regiment to do this. I understand getting rid of the draft cause it’s outdated but why don’t they change the regiment to be a Coast Guard and Navy especially since we’re surrounded by water. Just a thought.
