Community re membranceRoyal Canadian Legion Ortona 69 marked the dedication of its new Berwick memorial April 11, with a parade, service and wreath laying event. Stormy weather April 9, the anniversary of the Battle of Arras and known as Vimy Ridge Day, shifted events two days. Sunny skies and participation from Berwick & District School, mu-nicipal, provincial and federal politicians; community organizations and the public welcomed the dedication. The monument is placed on Veterans’ Drive, along the parade route used for Remembrance Day in recent years, as the Legion moved to the school to accommo-date growing attendance.

Aviation Museum Society

A reflective look back at 2018 accomplishments at the Greenwood Military Aviation Museum (GMAM) provides the footing for a busy 2019 ahead. Backed by many 14 Wing Greenwood sections, the GMAM’s 70-some dedi-cated volunteers amassed an amazing 6,500 hours on work last year. The museum also clocked 22,689 visitors, not counting the hundreds who viewed the Air Park during off hours.

The museum’s “fl agship” education program, Flight Education, hosted eight Val-ley schools and their Grade 6 science of fl ight students for guided tours, capably led by 20-some veterans, civilian and Regular force volunteers. Over the 16 years of the program, the team has now toured over 8,000 students.

After four-and-a-half years and a much-anticipated roll-

out from the workshop, the restored Piasecki/ Vertol H44 helicopter is the most-visi-ble addition to the Air Park. Volunteers will add the rotor blades, striping, lettering and roundels.

The mid-upper turret on the Lancaster is now re-stored, along with the intri-cately manufactured fairing, with reinstallation on the mid-dorsal side of the Lanc to come. The tail turret is being rebuilt to original standards, to be reinstalled this summer.

The Bolingbroke/ Blenheim restoration is reaching a major milestone, with the reconstruction of the second wing nearing completion. With the installation of the new, large access door in the museum extension, both completely-restored wings and the large center section wing box can be moved into the extension, with the sub-sequent assembly with com-pleted fuselage and cockpit sections. A second Mercury XV engine has been obtained

David Proudfoot now has two ethical codes to abide by: the legal profession re-quires him to provide ser-vices ethically, to all; his appointment March 21 as honorary colonel for 14 Air Maintenance Squadron came with a requirement to read the Canadian Armed Forces code of ethics.

“I did: it’s my duty,” Proud-foot said during his investi-ture at the Annapolis Mess. “It says, at all times and in all places, the CAF will respect human dignity.”

Proudfoot said the honour of this new role is a credit to many others: his father, who volunteered for Second World War service in 1943 after hearing of Holocaust atrocities; and the military members he himself now joins in the honorary role.

“All of you – if you are not here, I’m not here. And, it goes deeper than that. It’s that commitment that means we can go to work, vote, live and be free: because you guys go to work every day. This is my opportunity to give credit

to the people who raised me up, and showed me you rise when you lift others; and, to be an advocate for you.”

Squadron command-er Lieutenant-Colonel Amy Tsai-Lamoureux welcomed Proudfoot to 14 AMS, a 25-year-old aircraft mainte-nance squadron which stands shoulder-to-shoulder with aircrews to answer the call

“We believe in service. The role of honorary colonel is to serve as a bridge between the squadron and the local community, and it’s only as meaningful as we want it to be. I challenge you all to work alongside Honorary Colonel Proudfoot and strengthen the ties between our squadron and the community.”

Atlantic Canada will see a Canadian Forces Snowbirds’ performance this year.

An agreement has been struck between the Truro Fly-ing Club and the Nova Scotia International Air Show Asso-ciation (NSIASA) to produce a military air show featuring the Snowbirds June 19. It will be the fi rst ever performance by the Snowbirds at the Debert Airport, a former British Com-monwealth Air Training Plan Base from the Second World

The Steel Spirit art gal-lery is coming to Annapolis Royal June 1 to 6, show-casing artwork submissions done entirely by military and first responders (serving or retired). The Steel Spirit galleries are a platform of recognition and thanks for the work that they do.

War and the centre of general aviation flying training in Nova Scotia today.

“Truro Flying Club is ‘over the moon’ excited to have the CF Snowbirds perform in Debert. This is a great oppor-tunity to showcase a spectac-ular aerial performance and put the Debert airport on the map. It’s a fi rst and, with the fan support, I’m sure it won’t be the last,” says airport man-ager Denyse Sibley.

The NSIASA will produce

the event, the ninth different location for the group since 2008.

“Our air show organizing team has gained valuable expertise in producing shows at different locations and we are confi dent the Truro Flying Club and host community will be excellent partners,” says Colin Stephenson, executive director.

Additional aircraft will be invited to attend as static and fl ying displays.

Steel Spirit project founder Barbara Brown welcomes a wide range of art submis-sions (leatherwork, wood-work, photography, metal-work, paintings, drawings, etc). All art experience levels are welcome.

The exhibit will be hosted at the Round Hill Studio, 280

St-George Street, Annapolis Royal. Participation in the gallery and the community re-ception for the gallery is free.

library contains a collec-tion of materials on many aviation-related subjects, particularly on aircraft fl own from Greenwood from 1942 to present day, as well as op-erations conducted by Green-

wood squadrons overseas during the Second World War, between 1941 and 1945. A searchable, detailed listing of the library holdings may be accessed at gmam.ca.

Finishing off the year, the latest museum aircraft, a C45 Expeditor aircraft; was rolled into the workshop to begin a volunteer restoration project.

In a few years, this will be-come the 11th aircraft in the museum’s Air Park and the 14th in the total collection.

The museum is an exciting site to visit - or revisit - in 2019. Admission is free, with donations gratefully accept-ed. Follow museum activities at gmam.ca and Facebook.com/gmam.ca.

Months of drill, attention to detail and Public Duties guarding Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and her royal residences in Great Britain were recognized March 13 at 14 Wing Greenwood.

Members from the wing part of the Royal Canadian Air Force 120-member con-tingent taking up those duties June 15 to July 17, 2018, re-ceived letters of appreciation from Major-General Christian Drouin, commander, 1 Ca-nadian Air Division. 14 Wing Commander Colonel Mike Adamson made the presen-tations at wing headquarters, joking at the start if perhaps he should ask for a demon-stration.

“The amount of drill knowl-edge and acumen here is actually making me a little nervous,” he said, well aware of a half-dozen change of command ceremonies and parades – his included – scheduled later this summer.

Warrant Officer Stacy Wood, CD, after 30 years of loyal and dedicated to the Royal Canadian Air Force, will retire April 7. A formal depart with dignity event was held at 14 Wing Green-wood’s Annapolis Mess March 15.

Wood joined the Canadian Armed Forces in March 1989 as an air force POET (a gen-eral electronics technician). Following the competition of basic training in Corn-wallis, Nova Scotia, he was off to Kingston, Ontario, to begin his POET train-ing, where his actual trade would be decided. While on course, he was assigned to become a land electrical generator technician and told to trade in his blues for army greens; he quick-

Dedication to duty14 Wing members of RCAF’s first Public Duties contingent recognized

Wood ends 30-year RCAF career

“This was the first time in our 94-year history as an RCAF to do Public Duties and, by all accounts, you killed it. I understand it was – mostly – an enjoyable experience; one each and every one of you is very proud to have had the opportunity to do. The fact you as a group represent four or fi ve different units from our wing truly reinforces our ‘Op-

erate as One’ philosophy, and the chief and I are extremely proud of all of you.”

Drouin thanked all mem-bers of the RCAF UK Public Duties ATF for “exceptional dedication and commitment,” which included weeks of training on 17 Wing’s parade square in Winnipeg from May to its departure.

“This led to the execution

of Public Duties to the highest of standards on an inter-national stage that brought credit and recognition to not only the RCAF but to the Canadian Armed Forces and Canada as well,” Drouin said. “I couldn’t be prouder.”

The RCAF cont ingent marched through the gates of Buckingham Palace June 25 for the fi rst time, follow-

ing a successful “fit-for-role” inspection June 21 at the Wellington Barracks, conducted by the United Kingdom Household Divi-sion. It guarded Buckingham Palace, St. James Palace, Windsor Castle and the Tower of London, where the Crown Jewels are located. At the Tower of London, the ATF participated in the 700-year-

old Ceremony of the Keys, as the main gates are locked for the night. The ATF par-ticipated in a Freedom of the City Parade in Folkestone, a community where, in 1915, an estimated 40,000 Canadi-ans embarked for France. The RCAF Band further performed at the Horse Guards Palace, as part of the Royal Air Force 100th anniversary celebra-tions July 10.

Recipients included War-rant Officer C.J. Campbell, Wing Commander branch; W a r r a n t O f f i c e r A . M . Montreuil, 14 Mission Sup-port Squadron; Warrant Officer H.P.F. Mooney, 14 Air Maintenance Squadron; Sergeant A.S.G. Vizino, Wing Commander branch; Mas-ter Corporal J.C. Poirier, 14 AMS; Master Corporal R.H. Russell, 405 Squadron; Corporal (D)H.A. Bennett (absent), 413 Squadron; Corporal (J)M.S. Pacquette, 14 AMS; Corporal D.J. Wal-lace, 14 AMS; and Private E.J. Moreau, 14 Operations Support Squadron.

ly opted to be reassigned as a safety systems tech to remain in the air force. After his safety systems training in Borden, he was posted to 442 Squadron, 19 Wing Comox in March 1990, where he stayed for 10 years working on both the Buffalo and Labrador fl eets. He was then posted to 413 Squad-ron, 14 Wing Greenwood in July 2000 for 13 years and worked on the Hercules and Labrador. He was promoted to master corporal in June 2006, and then to sergeant in June 2009. He was on several deployments, includ-ing multiple major search and rescue operations on both Canadian coasts, Box Top, Eastern Europe and Op Caravan in Central Africa. He was promoted to warrant of-

fi cer in September 2013 and posted to DGAEPM Ottawa, where he worked as a Sea King LCMM. Posted back to 14 Wing in July 2016 to 405 Squadron as the deputy

unit fl ight safety offi cer, he worked here until January 2017, when he was posted to the 14 Wing Flight Safety Office as the deputy wing fl ight safety offi cer.

Wood, along with his wife of 25 years, Sheri, plans to retire and live in the Annap-olis Valley area, where he will be spending his time in his garage playing with

his hot rods. Their oldest son, Brandon, is an MSE operator in Gagetown and their youngest son, Ryan, is considering joining the RCMP after he graduates.

14 Wing Greenwood Commander Colonel Mike Adam-son presented Warrant Officer Stacy Wood with his certificate of service. Wood served for just over 30 years in the Canadian Armed Forces. Submitted

Exercise Maroon Chef, the hottest military exercise in the Annapolis Valley, paired up culinary students from the Nova Scotia Community College (NSCC) with Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) cooks. Kitchens were sizzlin’ April 8 at 5th Canadian Division Support Base Detachment Aldershot.

Things didn’t take long to heat up as the teams battled it out for VIP judges Bill Mills, mayor of Truro; Peter Dewer, culinary instructor at NSCC; Colonel Keith Osmond, com-mander of Base Gagetown; Chief Petty Offi cer 1st Class (retired) Blair King, a former military cook; and Gary Chin, executive sous chef at Hotel Halifax.

Each team included a CAF Reserve cook and a student from NSCC’s culinary arts program. A “black box” cook-ing demonstration, similar to those on popular television cooking shows, forced the cooks to prepare gourmet dishes with surprise ingredi-ents in a time crunch - all in a

fi eld kitchen.The top team was rewarded

with their name on the Chief Warrant Offi cer Hubert Regi-nald Johnson Trophy. John-son joined the Canadian Army Reserve as a cook in 1949 and went on to become the fi rst black chief warrant offi cer in the Canadian Armed Forces.

“I am participating to Ma-roon Chef for the fun, and I love a black box challenge,” said Dean Li, NSCC culinary student and winner of the Ex Maroon Chef 19 competition.

The exercise is designed to showcase military cooking skills and raise awareness about the opportunities avail-able to those who may be interested in a career as a cook within the CAF. The CAF recently announced a Regular Force signing bonus for those who have completed a rec-ognized culinary course and have at least 4,000 hours of practical cooking experience. New recruits may be entitled to an allowance of either $10,000 or $20,000 ($20,000 for those applicants with journeyman cooks papers, Red Seal or provincial certi-fi cation).

A change of command ceremony March 14 at 26/ 27 Canadian Forces Health Services Group at 14 Wing Greenwood typified much of what life in the Canadian Armed Forces can be like.

Major Rob Warren, who took command just last year, deploys within weeks to operations in Mali. Lieu-tenant-Colonel Dave McLean was technically on leave, and he thanked his wife for spending her birthday with him at the event. He must complete a handover at his Halifax workplace before he can join the 26/ 27 CFHS team in Greenwood later this spring. McLean also thanked Reg, his Halifax neighbour and a front row guest at the change of command, for tak-ing on some of the day-to-day support of his family and home while he commutes to Greenwood on IR (integrated relocation) to support his wife’s career path.

“This was a bit of a ‘fl ash to bang drama,’” Mclean said. “There was always the rumour I’d be coming to Greenwood – but not on two weeks’ notice!”

He reassure 14 Wing-based CFHS personnel he is looking forward to the post: “I’m a clinic guy, I asked to come here. I’ll give you all of my attention, and I’m look-ing forward to working on an air base. I’ll do my best.”

Warren thanked McLean for taking on his role, and thanked his team for their support – from Wing Com-mander Colonel Mike Adam-son and base personnel to the range of clinicians and professionals at work in the section.

“I came in wanting to support the mission, and I hope I met your expecta-tions,” Warren said. “We had a tough couple of months

here, and the wing came together with us and for us – making us truly part of the wing’s motto, ‘Operate as One.’

“This unit provides tre-mendous medical care, and you should be proud of the service you offer the wing. The care you provide is second to none.”

Colonel Manon Asselin, commander of 4 Health Services Group, was the event’s reviewing officer. She acknowledged the rapid change of command pace for the unit, and thanked both the outgoing and incoming commanding offi cers.

“Changes? Yes,” she said,” but that’s also hap-pening across Canadian Forces Health Services as we look at command structure, the modernization of the primary care model, mental health and patient safety. We have no choice but to mod-ernize our health system.

“At the unit level, the needs are different than anywhere else and we have to adapt to your reality, but it will take time. Together, we will reach the point of better

services, better resources and better care.”
