The Perfect Pear Dining Room

Captain Jocelyn Gaudette,415 (Long Range Patrol Force

Development) Squadron

For the fi rst time since its refor-mation in June 2015, two current members of 415 (Long Range Patrol Force Development) Squadron - Major Angie Thomas and Captain Jocelyn Gaudette - traveled to the small village of Sutton-on-the-Forest, North Yorkshire, United Kingdom; over the Victoria Day long weekend to attend a memorial service held in remembrance of the 640 aircrew who fl ew out of the nearby airfi eld, never to return.

415 Squadron was based out of Royal Air Force (RAF) Station East Moor from July 1944 to May 1945, when it was disbanded. With almost 1,800 Canadian and British service personnel stationed at East Moor through the height of the war, a sig-nifi cant presence was felt throughout the town and members were soon considered “family.”

The war memorial was built in 1990, thanks to Canadian veteran aircrew and ground staff. Originally

organized by veterans themselves, the Parish Council has since taken over the responsibility of organiz-ing the event, which attracts many residents from the region despite the sometimes inclement weather.

Three members of 429 Squadron also took part in the visit, which, in ad-dition to the family memorial service, included a tour of the local school and a church service. Throughout the weekend, the fi ve RCAF members had the opportunity to engage with the residents of the village, who once again expressed their deep gratitude for the continued Canadian presence at the ceremony. Some residents recalled members of the Canadian squadrons, and shared their stories of friendship, mischief and respect.

During the ceremony, Thomas ad-dressed the assembled crowd: “They say that our true families are those that surround and support us when no one else does. For the young men from our home squadrons who found themselves sent across the great ocean to fl y in foreign lands, they found just that - a family. Hundreds of men travelled miles from Canada

415 Squadron reps attend East Moor memorial

to assemble here, night after night, to climb into their bombers, not knowing if they’d make it back. They arrived here not quite certain of where they were going or what they were about to face, leaving their parents, friends and sweethearts behind. Far away from home, it was

the people of Sutton-on-the-Forest that supported them…. It was you that became their community and the ir normal life between bombing missions. And even today, you con-tinue to gather to remember them.

“Thank you for supporting our heroes when we couldn’t: they were

truly blessed to have found such a wonderful family. And thank you for allowing us to join you today in remembering their sacrifi ce.”

415 Squadron cherishes this spe-cial relationship with Sutton-on-the-Forest and hopes to continue this tradition for many years to come.

415 (Long Range Patrol Force Development) Squadron representatives attended a memorial ser-vice in Sutton-on-the-Forest, North Yorkshire, United Kingdom; over the Victoria Day weekend to attend a memorial service for 640 aircrew who flew out of RAF Station East Moor, never to return, during the Second World War. 415 Squadron was based here from July 1944 to May 1945.

Thirty Canadian Air Force reservists, as well as ac-tive duty United States air-men, assisted in renovating a building at Fort Indiantown Gap, Pennsylvania, a National Guard training site, for their two-week training in May.

The team was comprised of vertical engineers from 14 Construction Engineering Squadron, a Royal Canadian Air Force reserve unit head-quartered in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, as well as per-sonnel from other units. The Canadians brought a variety of skilled tradespeople with them, including plumbers, HVAC technicians, electri-cians and construction tech-nicians.

The RCAF reservists came from throughout Canada, said Warrant Offi cer Blane Reyn-olds, a from 192 Construction Engineering Flight Aldergrove in British Columbia.

“For some of the troops this was their fi rst time out of the country,” he said. “We have troops here from coast to coast.”

The Canadians came to train with their American

counterparts through the Deployment for Training Program. These exercises are intended to enhance the readiness of military engi-neers for both Canada and the U.S., and to improve in-teraction between engineers who operate together in sup-port of deployed operations. Canadian Armed Forces have been participating in training exercises like these at Fort Indiantown Gap for more than 20 years.

“Everyone has been very welcoming,” said Lieuten-ant Zaneta Balazova from

192 Flight. “We’ve enjoyed working with our allies and it’s been a very positive ex-perience.”

The Canadians did a great deal of work on two build-ings during their time at Fort Indiantown Gap, assisting with running cable, studding out buildings and more.

“This has been a produc-tive trip,” said Aviator Erik Kallweit, also from 192 Flight.

Their American hosts agreed about the benefit and the amount of work that was accomplished. “The Canadian Forces renovated an antiquated building into a modern 21st century facil-ity for the benefi t of service members training at Fort Indiantown Gap. Experiences like these, working with our allies and accomplishing so much, are a win-win for Ca-nadian and American forces,” said United States Army Lieutenant-Colonel. Daneen Hutton, director of public works for the installation.

Fort Indiantown Gap, ad-ministered by members of the Pennsylvania National Guard, is the busiest National Guard Training centre in the U.S., training more than 120,000 service members

from all branches and com-ponents, as well as allied

Canadian air reservists train in Pennsylvania

Sergeant Jamey Kennell and Master Corporal Daniel Burkowsky, both from 192 Construction Engineering Flight Aldergrove in British Columbia, and Aviator Tra-vis Decker, from 144 Construction Engineering Flight in Pictou, work at Fort Indiantown Gap, Pennsylvania as part of a partnership training program.

Major-General Christian Drouin June 21 assumed command of 1 Canadian Air Division (1 CAD) from Major-General David Wheeler at a ceremony held at 17 Wing Winnipeg. Lieutenant-General Michael Hood, Com-mander of the Royal Canadian Air Force, presided.

“I thank the airmen and airwomen of 1 Canadian Air Division and the Cana-dian NORAD Region for their sacrifices and outstanding contributions these past two years,” said Wheeler. “They are the backbone of our suc-cess, allowing us to fulfi ll our duties to our partners and allies and help the RCAF proj-ect the reach and air power needed to support our opera-tions around the world. I also want to thank my family for their unrelenting commitment and sacrifi ce. I’m pleased to hand this command over to Major-General Drouin and I leave this post with complete confi dence our people are in highly capable hands.”

Responsibility for all RCAF operations is a huge under-taking, Hood said.

“Notwithstanding a high tempo of operations here at home and abroad, General Wheeler kept the RCAF fl ying in formation with our joint partners and allies,” Hood said.

Wheeler will lead the Cana-dian Armed Forces Targeting

Implementation Initiative at the National Defence Head-quarters in Ottawa.

Before this appointment, Drouin was the Deputy J5 Strategy, Policy and Plans at the North American Aero-space Defense Command (NORAD) and U.S. Northern Command at Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado. As commander of 1 CAD, Drouin also assumes command of the Canadian NORAD Region (CANR) and the Joint Forces Air Component Command for the Canadian Joint Opera-tions Command.

New commander for Air Force operationsAir Force meet the operational needs of the Canadian Armed Forces at home and abroad in roles ranging from search and rescue to the defence of North America. Encompass-ing 12 RCAF wings across Canada, 1 CAD is organized

and equipped to provide operationally-ready forces for rapid deployment and employment, while ensuring its wings and units are ready with the right mix of air power to meet Canada’s aerospace needs.

Representing the unique needs of their community is what volunteers with the Greenwood Military Family Resource Centre board of directors are tasked to do.

“And they give so much of themselves to ensure they are truly the voice of their community, and that this centre is meeting their needs,” said MFRC execu-tive director Margaret Reid June 8, at the board’s an-nual meeting.

Board chairwoman Beth McLean had an easy an-swer: “the board members work together, and they make my job as chair really easy. I thank them for that.”

McLean led the annual meeting, updating those in attendance on moves taken in the past year to improve training for volunteers on the board, and financial

policies. A representative group recently attended the Atlantic conference of MFRCs in Newfoundland and Labrador; they are now excited to host the 2017

conference in Greenwood.Treasurer Justin Kubis

presented the annual fi-nancial report, reflecting revenue through 2015/ 2016 of $1.39 million and

expenditures of $1.19 mil-lion. Revenues included $831,132 from Director Military Family Services, $254,774 from program in-come and $21,880 through

fundraising.“You’ll note $173,149 in

restitution – that was from our lawsuit we have been working on, and all of that was recovered in the last fi scal year,” Kubis said. The restitution is partial repay-ment of just over $400,000 stolen by an MFRC em-ployee, discovered in 2011.

E x p e n s e s i n c l u d e d $955,000 in salaries and benefi ts, $16,370 on pro-fessional development and $25,000 on advertising and public relations.

Continuing on the board through a two-year term are Natalie Catto, Beth McLean, Annette Davidson, Pam Patten and Sandra Trail. Elected for two-year terms are Justin Kubis, Anita Hu-dak, Linda Guy, Grant Kelly, Melinda Dennis, Natalie Antle and Kathryn Dalton.

Reid gave her annual summary on behalf of the centre, and said the year has included a great deal of refl ection on the past 30 years: “and it always comes back to the people who have touched the centre in some way or another – as staff, as governance, as partners or people who have used the programs. They have all been part of the building blocks that have been behind our suc-cess.”

She said demands this year, responding to the needs of deployed soldiers on Operation Impact, and their families at home; have continued to challenge the MFRC. The support of

14 Wing command team members “ensures the families of 14 Wing know and are appreciated as the strength behind the uniform – and that’s very meaningful.” Partnerships with Personnel Support Program entities, com-munity businesses, orga-nizations and local gov-ernments; and a network of 120-plus volunteers make MFRC programs hap-pen; and, not the least, are MFRC staff, who “make coming to work fun, and their passion and profes-sionalism make the centre what it is.”

14 Wing Commander Colonel Pat Thauberger said, while the military talks about the families being the “strength behind the uni-form,” the MFRC staff and volunteers are the strength behind the families.

“It’s so important to those of us who wear the uniform to know, when we’re gallivanting around the world on tasks the government sets, we’re able to do that on the backs of the services the MFRC provides. Greenwood has one of the best-recognized MFRCs nationally.”

Thauberger commended the MFRC on its 30 years of programs, but “you’re not sitting on your laurels.” The new family sponsorship program is being trialed at 14 Wing now, with 30 volunteers involved, help-ing make the transition to life in Greenwood easier for families.

Club volunteer night a great successThanks to all who attended

the 14 Wing Community Recreation Club Night June 17.

14 Wing Greenwood Community Recreation’s Jill Jackson, left, and Kelly Aucoin, right, congratulate Adele Robert, representing the Greenwood Figure Skating Club, as the club of the year. Submitted

Over 70 people attended the celebration, as Commu-nity Recreation recognized its wing-based clubs. It was

a great night to thank the many clubs, volunteers, executive and members who give so much of them-selves year round to benefi t 14 Wing and community families.

As part of the celebration, three special recognitions were presented. Josh Hat-tie, Greenwood Minor Soc-cer Club, was named the youth volunteer of the year. Tawnya Clendenning, also from the Greenwood Minor Soccer Club, was chosen as the adult volunteer of the year. Club of the year is the Greenwood Figure Skating Club. All three awards were well deserved, and a great refl ection of the quality of Community Recreation’s clubs and volunteers.

Community Recreation

is proud to offer over 177 programs, with 3,500 par-ticipants, 20 recreation clubs with membership of over 1,600 and six major events, with over 4,000 participants. For a small community, staff and volunteers work hard

to provide the best quality programs and services in the Canadian Armed Forces. The heart and dedication of staff and volunteers make Greenwood second to none. Thanks to the volunteer community for all you do.

14 Wing Greenwood Library

June is Recreation Month: slip on your running shoes and walk, run or bike over to the library to check out our latest additions. Reading is an excellent exercise of the mind we all can enjoy! Spe-cial events this month also include Father’s Day June 19 and National Aboriginal Day June 21, celebrating 20 years of strong vibrant cultures and traditions. This is a day for all Canadians to recognize and celebrate the unique heritage, diverse cultures and outstanding contributions of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples.

New this month is “The Paris Secret,” an intense and gripping tale from bestselling

author Karen Swan. Some-where along the cobbled streets of Paris, an apart-ment lies thick with dust and secrets: full of priceless artworks hidden away for decades. High-fl ying fi ne art agent Flora from London, more comfortable with the tension of a million-pound auction than a cozy candlelit dinner for two, is called in to assess these treasures.

Another great addition is “The Nest,” by Cynthia D’Aprix Sweeney. A sharp, funny and deftly observed debut about a wonderfully dysfunctional New York fam-ily, the Plumbs, and three grown-up siblings fighting to save the family money pot - the “nest” - as their oldest brother threatens to lose it all.

Our children’s story group, “Under the Story Tree,” is on

hiatus for the summer. Also on holiday for the summer is the 14 Wing book club. Be sure to check out new times and dates in the fall.

If you require any plants for your garden, the library’s perennial plant sale is going on for a few more weeks on the library’s front step. There is a good selection.

At this time, we would like to say good-bye to Sheri Brumsey, the library assis-tant, who has been a great as-set to 14 Wing Library. Sheri and Brian are leaving Nova Scotia to open new doors on Prince Edward Island. Thank you for everything you have helped accomplish at the 14 Wing library! Welcome to Sophie Beaudin, now anxious to come in and start assist-ing the many great library patrons.

Please note: the 14 Wing

Public service employees at 14 Wing Greenwood con-tinued to do just that during National Public Service Week June 12 to 18, and took a

little time to celebrate their contributions to 14 Wing Greenwood.

About 600 employees at the base are represented by the Public Service Alliance of Canada and the Union of National Defence Employees,

and they work in all areas of the base – from administra-tion to construction to fl ight simulation to fitness and recreation.

“It’s important we celebrate the teamwork and camarade-rie you share with the wider

defence team – you folks un-derstand the integral part the civilian force plays in our op-erations here in Greenwood,” said Colonel Pat Thauberger, base commander, June 17, as public servant employees gathered for a casual movie af-

ternoon at the Zedex Theatre.“You represent the continu-

ity on this base that enables us to operate 24/ 7. You are the critical enablers that keep this base functioning. That’s not lost on me, or the rest of base leadership.”

PSAC r ep Johna than Tweedie reported union vol-unteers, earlier in the week, collected $1,500 in cash do-nations for the Kingston and Nictaux food banks through a Sobey’s campaign and a boot drive at the 14 Wing main gate.

Union service supports wing, 24/ 7

26 Canadian Forces Health Services Greenwood

At 26 Canadian Forces Heath Services Centre, we care about your health. It is in our very nature. We decide to become healthcare professionals because we want to help people. Part of helping people is to facilitate them helping themselves and becoming, ultimately, responsible for their own health.

There are many resources at 14 Wing Greenwood and in the surrounding area to help you optimise your health. Your clinic works in conjunc-tion with all of these. The fi rst, and most responsible resource, is you. The second extremely valuable resource is your leadership and chain of command. They have the responsibility of promoting your welfare. You also have an excellent Health Promo-tion offi ce, chaplaincy corps, Military Family Resource Centre, physical exercise spe-cialist and Personnel Support Program staff and a never-ending supply of community resources. Bottom line: all of these resources are available if you reach out!

I’m sure you have all heard the old adage, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” This has never been more true, in an age when processed food and technol-

ogy promote an unhealthy lifestyle, operational tempo and work demands are high - yet staffi ng is low. Self-care is a priority - and a necessity - in the work we do as part of the Canadian Armed Forces. Let’s investigate…

What is health? Health is determined by a variety of factors, each representing a percentage of impact. Al-though we don’t have control over our genes and biology, we do have control over the other 90 per cent of areas that impact our health. Eating healthy, promoting our men-tal, social and psychological health, and exercising have a positive effect on at least 60 per cent of our health. Luck-ily, we all have jobs in the Canadian Armed Forces so, if we manage our fi nances properly and don’t overex-tend ourselves, the economic factors we can control are solid. Socially, we each are a member of a very large team, with an extremely important mission to protect Canada and its interests. Working on maintaining healthy relation-ships and reducing stress by practicing self-care will have a positive effect on our social health. We have stringent policies to promote a healthy physical environment such as PMed, General Safety, the Environmental Offi ce and Oc-cupational Health and Safety.

As for your clinical care, I can guarantee the clini-cal care provided to you

by Canadian Forces Health Services is excellent. Our wait times are much shorter for acute illness/ injury and our appointment times are on par with the civilian health care system. Your ease of access to care is far superior than the c i v i l i a n s y s t e m ( o n e -s t o p shopping for acute and chronic care, diag-nostic imag-ing, lab, pharma-cy, physio, mental health, case manage-ment, PMed, dental, trav-el health and immunizations, Blue Cross and health records management). Best of all, we are on your team! We under-stand your work environment and how the system works. We understand your chain of

com-mand and the demands placed upon you by the CAF.

If you look at the whole picture, besides genes and

WEEK 1 | Your health – A team approach, lead by you

biol-o g y ,

the only c h a n g e -

able factor is you!

If you think about it, the Canadian Armed Forces does a great job at ensuring you have the resources avail-able to you to address any issue you may have. What

other organization supports their members so holisti-cally?

If you’re not practicing self-care, it might be a good idea to start. You may fi nd a vari-ety of “self-care plans” that suit your personality online. If you commit to following your plan, you will be able to optimize your health. Want to know more ways of taking care of yourself? Have a look at the Wing Health Promotion website to see what courses are available, or contact 14 Wing Health Promotion staff (902-765-1494, locals 5388 or 5389).

Robert Albert,Senior leader

June 11 and 12, the West Kings Duke of Edinburgh International Award Unit - seven students ages 14 to 16 - braved the “wilderness” at Blomidon Provincial Park to complete their two-day overnight Adventurous Jour-ney (AJ) requirement for their Bronze level award. The students hiked 20 kilometres over the two days, despite overgrown rose bushes, fallen trees, steep hills (that seemed to outnumber the down hills), the usual insect pests and with 10 to 20 ki-lograms of gear and food in their backpacks.

A little determination (and bug spray) took care of the small nuisances on the trail,

allowing some breathtaking views to be enjoyed by all. The weather even cooperated. Despite a forecast of rain, the weather held off until the group was on its way home.

Saturday evening saw ev-eryone set up their tents and make supper, which tasted much better because they had cooked it outside themselves. With a cutthroat game of UNO, followed by some s’mores, everyone was ready for a good night’s rest - before doing it all again the next day.

In the end, all agreed it was a great event. Leaders Robert Albert and Don Hyslop also had a great time watching these young adults succeed on this new experience. Some are now impatient for their Silver trip! Special thanks to

Lynn Little for helping make the weekend possible.

If you are interested in the program, check out the National Duke of Edinburgh website at www.dukeofed.org for information on this amazing program.
