Just curious...

Anybody else believe this statement? Personally, I always wondered what that 'RC' meant on my dog tags.
Canadian military seeks Muslim recruits

The military does not keep statistics on the religion of its members, but it does know that the number of Muslims who have joined is far less than the average in the Canadian population of about 2.3 per cent.
Either they haven't created a seperate category for Muslims in the database or this is some strange attempt at political correctness of some sort.

The 'RC' was me being sarcastic.

AwaWiYe - the CF has an EXTENSIVE database on every member. That's why I find this statement slightly ludicrous.

At a bare minimum the people who do the tags have to have a count.

First off...great blog.
We pray for all our men and women serving over seas.

Second, yes the CF knows the religion of every in their DB, at at least the religion that each claims.

The CF, though, does need more individuals with more knowledge of Islam and the Arab world.

Keep up the good work.
