Greenwood Military Aviation Museum
The Greenwood Military Aviation Museum has a
spectacular new look to its outdoor air park.
Argus 717 has been completely refurbished with
a fresh, bright coat of paint and crisp new markings
and is now back on its original mounting. Lab 308
has also been placed on a pad in the air park between
the Argus and the T-Bird.
The volunteer group from 14 Air Maintenance
Squadron (AMS) cleaned the old paint and corrosion
from the entire surface of the Argus and applied a new
coat of paint, all done under very taxing conditions in
an outdoor setting. July 10, another volunteer team
from 14 AMS and 404 squadrons made slick work

of towing the behemoth from the worksite across the
CANEX parking lot and grass infield to its new place
of prominence at the entrance.
The museum is also proud to showcase a new exhibit
at the air park, the CH-113 Labrador helicopter. Lab
308 was decommissioned from 8 Wing Trenton and
reassembled in 10 Hangar at 14 Wing Greenwood by
another group of museum volunteers, guided by Lab
veterans from IMP. July 11, the IMP team towed Lab
308 across the air field, through the main gate to its
display pad next to the “new-look” Argus 717.
Many displays inside the museum have been
updated and staff is hoping to show off all the new
exhibits to aviation and historical enthusiasts through
the summer months. The museum is open seven days

N.S. Navy contract would have huge reach

Shipbuilding Procurement
S t r a t e g y, a $ 3 0 b i l l i o n
program announced in 2010
to build 20 combatant surface
vessels for the Navy. Two
shipyards will win the work;
four are bidding. The deadline
for proposals was July 7, but
two yards – not Nova Scotia’s
Irving Shipbuilding – were
successful in getting a twoweek extension.
In the meantime, efforts are
afoot to have people from all
walks of life in Nova Scotia
check out shipsstarthere.ca.
The website details the impact
winning the work would have
on the province, with benefits
for workers, communities and
the province as a whole for the
life of the 30-year build.
“Ships Start Here is a
coalition of organizations
who have come together, and
the main area of focus of the
Halifax bid is we’ve built 80
per cent of the fleet here,”
says Sara Young of public
relations firm MT&L. She
points to the list of business
leaders, politicians and others
registering their support on
the website, listing their
reasons for wanting some of
the work on the East coast.

spokeswoman Deborah
Hashey says the Navy is
a “huge” customer of the
company: “we’re right next
door to the Navy dockyards,
and we’ve done a lot of the
on-going refits and builds
over the years.
“The Navy is a huge – and
valuable – customer. Our ties
are very, very close.”
Hashey says those ties
go beyond ship work: the
shipyard’s work “supports a
whole number of institutions
– not only ships.” Also
consider the links between a
strong Navy base in Halifax
and the associated operations
with 14 Wing Greenwood’s
air support services.
“The economic spin-off is
not solely centred on shipbuilding, and it is all over the
province.”

MacKay congratulates CF for support of royal tour
July 8, Peter MacKay,
Minister of National Defence, congratulated the men
and women of the Canadian
Armed Forces who so professionally supported the highly
successful tour of Their Royal Highnesses, The Duke and
Duchess of Cambridge.
“The outstanding support
of our service personnel, who
represent all branches of the
Canadian Forces, has been
exemplary from the planning
stages and throughout the
royal tour,” said Minister
MacKay. “Their excellence
has been broadcast daily in
the media across Canada and
around the world. I extend
my heartiest congratulations
to them all.”
Operations planners
at Canada Command
Headquarters in Ottawa
and at the Regional Joint
Task Forces in Toronto,
Halifax, Yellowknife and
Edmonton have worked
in close cooperation with
colleagues from Canadian
Heritage to ensure the
logistics, transportation and
ceremonial aspects of the
tour have been carried out in
every detail.
“Since the royal couple
arrived in Ottawa June 30
aboard the 437 Transport
Squadron Airbus, Canadians
have watched and admired
our Regular and Reserve
Force soldiers on parade,
HMCS Montreal’s company
guiding the duke and duchess
down the St. Lawrence, air
crews in waterbird, search
and rescue and fly past
operations, and our famed
Snowbird air demonstration
team.”
“The CF is ready at all
times to provide its unique
capabilities in the service of
our fellow Canadians, and
during very special events
such as this royal tour,” said
Lieutenant-General Walter
S e m i a n i w, c o m m a n d e r
of Canada Command. “I
want to add my sincere
appreciation and congratulate
all the women and men of
the Canadian Forces who
have contributed so much to
making the visit of the Duke
and Duchess of Cambridge
such a resounding success.
MacKay félicite des FC pour leur
soutien à la visite royale
Le 8 juillet, Peter
MacKay, ministre de la
Défense nationale, félicite
les hommes et les femmes des
Forces canadiennes qui ont si
professionnellement appuyé
la visite très réussie de Leurs
Altesses Royale le duc et la
duchesse de Cambridge.
“Le soutien exceptionnel de
nos militaires qui représentent
toutes les branches des Forces
canadiennes a été exemplaire
depuis les étapes de la
planification et pendant toute
la visite royale,” a déclaré
MacKay. “Leur excellence a
été diffusée quotidiennement
dans les médias du Canada
et de partout dans le monde.
Je présente mes plus sincères
félicitations à eux tous.”
Les planificateurs des
opérations au Quartier
général du Commandement
Canada à Ottawa et dans
les Forces opérationnelles
interarmées régionales à
Toronto, Halifax, Yellowknife
et Edmonton ont travaillé
en étroite coopération avec
leurs collègues de Patrimoine
Canada pour s’assurer que
les aspects logistiques, de
transport et de cérémonie de
la visite étaient réalisé dans
les moindres détails.
“Depuis l’arrivée du
couple royal à Ottawa le 30
juin à bord d’un Airbus du
437e Escadron de transport,
les Canadiens ont surveillé et
admiré nos soldats de la Force
régulière et de la Réserve en
parade, l’équipage du NCSM
MONTRÉAL guidant le
duc et la duchesse sur le
Saint-Laurent, les équipages
aériens lors d’opérations
de waterbird, de recherche
et sauvetage et de défilés
aériens et notre fameuse
équipe de démonstration
aérienne Snowbird,” a ajouté
MacKay.
Des milliers de citoyens
dans les communautés
d’Ottawa, de Montréal, de
Québec, de Charlottetown, de
Summerside, de Yellowknife,
de Slave Lake et enfin de
Calgary pour le Stampede
et les cérémonies de départ
ont partagé l’excitation par
des applaudissements et leur
grand enthousiasme.
“Les Forces canadiennes
sont prêtes en tout temps à
fournir leurs capacités uniques
au service de nos concitoyens
canadiens et pendant tous les
événements spéciaux tels
cette visite royale,” a indiqué
le Lieutenant-général Walter
Semianiw, commandant du
Commandement Canada.
“Je tiens à ajouter ma plus
sincère appréciation et à
féliciter toutes les femmes et
tous les hommes des Forces
canadiennes qui ont contribué
tellement à faire de la visite
du duc et de la duchesse de
Cambridge un tel succès.

overcoming punishing temperatures, parts availability and cranky
airplanes to keep two Auroras flying - and besting the fleet’s already
incredible performance during OP APOLLO and the APPLANIX
Det during OP ATHENA.
The Det has overcome a range of challenges to achieve stellar
results, and new challenges surface daily. As the hot Sicilian summer
intensifies, the temperature on the tarmac climbed
toward 40 degrees Celsius on the second day of
our visit as we prepared to go flying. Both aircrew
and maintainers were sweat-soaked as the aircraft
taxied to the runway. For our flight, we joined 405
Squadron’s Crew 4, flying their last operational
mission after two months in theatre. Led by Flight
Lieutenant Chris “Sprinks” Birrer, on exchange
in Greenwood from Australia, the crew was
a well-oiled machine, superbly employing all
aircraft sensors to deliver the required operational
effects. The mission was fascinating, and all three
of us watched intently as the crew executed what
had, by now, become routine. As Sprinks pointed
out to us, experience shows them to expect the
unexpected - something we saw firsthand during
the latter part of the trip - and to be on guard for anything unusual or
abnormal. While hanging out in the galley, the most telling sign we
were deployed to Italy was the stack of pizza boxes neatly stowed
in the compartment where flight meals are usually located, each
bearing the name of a crew member, and an extra large pizza fixed
with yellow tape to the aft work bench.
As we neared off station time, the crew received news Mount Etna,
an active volcano located northeast of Sigonella, had experienced
an eruption (we called it a burp), its fifth since the beginning of the
year, spewing volcanic ash into the atmosphere and forcing the air
base at Sigonella and the airport at Catania to close overnight. With
their “home plate” closed, the crew decided to recover at the Italian
airbase at Trapani on the other side of Sicily, the deployment location
for Canada’s CF-18s. On landing, the support the crew received
from Bagotville’s 3 Mission Support Flight was outstanding, and
Major Daniel Gendreau and his team pulled out all the stops to take
great care of the crew.
It was a very valuable trip. We saw firsthand how well the team
is performing, confirmed our personnel are well taken care of and
morale appeared to be great - and we passed on a couple of hugs.
Well done, and keep up the great work.

Get your Military
Family ID card
By Amy Snow, Coordinator of deployment services,
GMFRC
Do you have your Military Family Identification (MFID)
card?
Just as a military member’s Military Identification Card
identifies them as a Canadian Forces member, the MFID
identifies you as a military family member.
The MFID is recognized nationally, entitling the family to
military discounts with participating businesses and allowing
them entry to military activities and events. Before your
loved one deploys, we strongly recommend you complete
the necessary paperwork to obtain your own Military Family
ID card. This card will allow you to continue to benefit from
military discounts in your loved one’s absence as well as act
as your ID should you have the opportunity to visit your loved
one overseas. In the event of an emergency, it is best to be
prepared by having an MFID.
The MFID is available to immediate military family
members, including spouses/ common-law partners and
children aged 13 and over. The MFID is available to families
of both regular and reserve force members. In Greenwood,
MFID cards are issued by Ident. Section Monday to Friday,
8 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. The forms cmay also be found at www.
familyforce.ca as well as at the GMFRC front desk. For
information, contact Sergeant Brigitte Martin at local 5336.
Carte d’identité
des familles des
militaires
Par Amy Snow, Coordonnatrice des services de
déploiement, CRFMG
Avez-vous votre carte d’identité de famille de militaire
(CIFM)?
Tout comme une carte d’identité militaire identifie un
membre des Forces Canadienne, la CIFM vous identifie
en tant que membre d’une famille de militaire. La CIFM
est reconnue à l’échelle nationale afin que les familles des
militaires puissent l’utiliser partout dans le pays. Cette
carte donne à son détenteur des réductions auprès des
entreprises participantes et leur donne accès aux activités et
événements militaires. Lorsque le militaire est en mission ou
en entraînement et est loin de ses proches, les membres de
sa famille ont encore droit à certaines choses. Donc, avant
que votre militaire soit déployé, nous vous recommandons
vivement de remplir les documents nécessaires pour obtenir
votre propre carte d’identité de famille de militaire. Cette
carte vous permettra de continuer à bénéficier des réductions
militaires en l’absence du militaire tout en faisant office de
document officiel d’identification si vous avez l’occasion
de rendre visite à votre bien-aimé à l’étranger dans le cadre
du programme d’indemnité de retour au domicile. En cas
d’urgence, il est préférable d’être préparé en ayant une CIFM.
La CIFM est à la disposition des membres de la famille
immédiate des militaires, notamment les conjoints ou
conjoints de fait et les enfants âgés de 13 ans et plus. La
CIFM est proposée aux familles des membres de la force
régulière et de la réserve. À Greenwood, les CIFM sont
émises par la section d’identification. Les heures d’ouverture
sont du lundi au vendredi, de 8 h à 11 h 30. Les formulaires
peuvent également être consultés sur notre site web à www.
forcedelafamille.ca ainsi qu’à la réception du CRFMG. Pour
plus d’informations, veuillez communiquer avec le sergent
Brigitte Martin en composant le 902-765-1494 poste 5336.

Air team’s people: reason for success – outgoing commander
By Major General Yvan
Blondin, Commander 1
Cdn Air Div/ CANR
I’ve been honoured to serve
since 2006 at 1 Canadian Air
Division/ Canadian NORAD
Region Headquarters, with
the last two years as your
commander. As I pass the
torch to Major-General Alain
Parent, I’d like to share a few
thoughts with you, the airmen
and airwomen of Canada’s
Air Force.
As your operational
commander, I am so incredibly
impressed with the work done
by our entire defence team,
coast to coast and abroad. In
the last couple years, we have
experienced an operational
tempo the Air Force hasn’t
seen in generations. Overseas,
we have maintained a crucial
role with the air wing in
Afghanistan, deployed
CF-18s to Iceland for Op
IGNITION, assisted the
people of Haiti in Op HESTIA
and we maintain a significant
effort with Op MOBILE
over Libya. In fact, we are
in a time where virtually
every fleet of operational
aircraft are employed on
operations. At home we
supported the 2010 Olympics,
the G8/ G20, and assisted
with flood relief efforts and
forest-fire evacuations across
the country. We did all this
while saving lives at home
with search and rescue and
keeping a tireless watch
over our skies through our
NORAD mission.
No words can express the
pride I feel from having had
the privilege of serving as
your commander. All of our
successes are due to you, our
proud airmen and airwomen,
and your tireless efforts.
My appreciation extends
also to your families. Our
collective success is due to
the support we receive from
our loved ones, and we must
never forget that. In May, I
had the honour of hosting
the second annual Family
Support Conference in
Winnipeg. We saw the results
of the Family Support Needs
Assessment that captured
how military families like
yours perceive how their
needs are being met. It is a
critical step in improving
how we support our loved
ones, as they, too, sacrifice
so much for our country. I’m
proud we have made great
strides in strengthening our
support to our families. I’ve
had the pleasure of seeing
wings across the country
forge ahead with delivering
on commitments to the
community and military
families – specifically in the
areas of medical care and
childcare.
This kind of dedicated
support to each other and your
families is the cornerstone
of success that allows us
to succeed in our missions,
while ensuring we take care
of our most valuable resource
– our people. I thank you
all for your hard work and
the selfless dedication you
continuously demonstrate in
service to your country. I am
honoured to hand command
over to Major-General Parent,
knowing what an incredible
team he is inheriting.
1 Canadian Air Division Commander Major General
Yvan Blondin was born in Montreal and started out
as a pilot 29 years ago. He has earned the Canadian
Forces Decoration First Clasp, Peacekeeping Medal,
North American Treaty Organization Yugoslavia Medal, the Order of Military Merit and the Afghanistan
Service Cross.

Force for learning
By Brigadier-General Rick
Pitre, Commander, 2
Canadian Air Division
When I received the mandate
over two years ago to stand up
the new 2 Canadian Air Division,
I knew that we had our work cut
out for us. We transformed the
Air Force construct to create the
Air Force Doctrine and Training
Division in June 2009, marking
a new and exciting chapter in our
rich Air Force history.
In less than a year, a small
d e d i c a t e d g r o u p o f s t a ff
came together to regroup the
majority of Air Force training,
education and lessons learned
functions into one formation.
This reorganization enabled
a better focus on doctrine,
training and associated support
for the Air Force, while allowing
1 Canadian Air Division to
enhance its focus on operations
at home and abroad.
This new direction for the
Air Force was a fundamental
step in our ability to progress as

a learning organization. In two
short years, we have grown from
a small headquarters at initial
operating capability to a strong,
lean, and agile organization.
I’m proud to say 2 Canadian
Air Division has made a truly
valuable contribution to the Air
Force in developing our doctrine
and training programs, while
continuing to generate forces for
operations.
The significant progress of
this organization is largely due
to the many staff dedicated
to seeing the development of
this formation into a reality.
All over the country, Air Force
personnel were committed to
transforming the Air Force into a
learning organization. I couldn’t
be happier knowing BrigadierGeneral Galvin will be taking
command of such a devoted
group of personnel.
As a result of your outstanding
work, 2 Canadian Air Division
has helped the Air Force stand
out as a responsive, forwardthinking, and innovative
organization. I amgrateful to
all those who played a role in
developing a concept into the
organization that exists today. It
was a pleasure to serve with you,
and it is with great honour I pass
command to Brigadier-General
Galvin.

Busy weekend adds up for SAR crews
By Major Scott Tromp, 413 Squadron CH 149 pilot
413 Squadron as its members completed three separate
search and rescue missions on the July 8 weekend. When
all was said and done, seven people had been transported to
safety and the CC130 and CH149 crews had flown a total of
18 hours, most of which occurred in darkness.
The first mission occurred on the evening of July 8. Rescue
908, a CH149 helicopter, was tasked to medivac an injured hiker
from mountainous terrain in Cape Breton. The crew proceeded
to the North River area and was able to find the individual’s
signal fire using night vision goggles. The injured hiker was
in a gorge at the base of a 300-foot waterfall that made rescue
by the helicopter crew at night difficult. Once established, the
SAR techs were lowered to the injured hiker via a 200-foot
hoist. The SAR techs provided first aid, stabilized the casualty
and determined recovery would be via the rescue basket. The
basket was lowered, the hiker and SAR techs retrieved and the
injured man was taken to Cape Breton Regional Hospital in
Sydney to receive further medical attention.
The second mission occurred early July 10. Rescue 911, a
CH149 helicopter, and Rescue 328, a CC130 aircraft, were
tasked to proceed to the fishing vessel Bessie Wilfred, 20 nautical
miles southeast of Port Hawkesbury. The vessel was taking on
water and the crew was concerned it would need to abandon
ship. By the time the SAR crews arrived at the squadron, they
were informed the crew had indeed abandoned ship and were
now afloat in their life raft. Both aircraft departed Greenwood to
offer assistance. The CC130 arrived on scene first and was able
to locate the life raft and drop a smoke to mark the position for
the arrival of the helicopter. Once on scene, the helicopter crew
assessed the situation and determined all six people on the raft
would need to be hoisted to safety since no surface vessels were
able to provide assistance. The CC130 climbed into the clouds
and proceeded to drop illumination flares to assist the CH149
crew with the night recovery. Sergeant Norm Penny was hoisted
to the raft to secure the fisherman and provide support to Master
Corporal Rob Featherstone, who then completed six individual
rescue sling recoveries on the hoist of the CH149. Once medical
assessments of the fishermen were complete, they were taken to
the Halifax International Airport by the CH149.
The final SAR mission completed by 413 Squadron crews
occurred at 0100 hrs July 12. The CC130 and CH 149 were
both tasked to proceed to Mirimichi Bay to search for an
overdue open fishing boat with two people on board. The
rescue mission was hampered by severe thunderstorms en
route, but both the Hercules and the Cormorant arrived on
scene. Approximately one hour into the search, a Canadian
Coast Guard vessel located the search object at anchor.
Mechanical difficulties had left the vessel and occupants
stranded to await recovery. Medical attention was not required,
so the SAR aircraft were cleared to return to Greenwood.
Challenged by weather and darkness, 413 Squadron crews,
both air and ground, put rubber on the ramp, planes in the sky
and made a difference in the life of several Atlantic Canadians
and were a credit to the 14 Wing team.

Canadian tradition rides
into Lawrencetown
One of Canada’s most
recognized icons, the Royal
Canadian Mounted Police
(RCMP) Musical Ride,
will be performing at the
Annapolis Valley Exhibition
grounds, Lawrencetown,
August 10.
The RCMP Musical
Ride represents a colourful
Canadian tradition. The
troop of 32 horses and riders
perform a variety of cavalry
drills choreographed to
music. Working through a
unique medium, they support
RCMP community policing
efforts throughout Canada.
The Musical Ride was
developed in 1876 by early
members of the North-West
Mounted Police to display
their riding ability and
entertain the local community.
It has evolved over the decades
into a uniquely Canadian
performance, enjoyed by tens
of thousands of spectators
every year.
Members of the Musical
Ride are first and foremost
police officers. They all have
at least two years’ experience
in active police work before
volunteering for the ride.
Surprisingly, most have no
prior riding experience.

call the Annapolis County
4-H Leaders Council at

Summer fun at the GMFRC
By Katie Therrien, GMFRC
children’s summer
camp leader
The first week of camp
was full of celebration at the
Greenwood Military Family
Resource Centre.
The preschool summer camp
celebrated and learned about
different celebrations from
around the world. Monday,
our little campers celebrated
Canada Day. They spent the
day having fun in the sun
and making life size cutouts
of themselves. Tuesday was
Earth Day. The campers went
on a nature walk and collected
some nature treasures to
dive deep in the ocean, go
searching for animals in a
safari adventure, explore the
lost tomb of a great pharaoh
and head back to the high seas
for a pirate adventure.
Programs such as summer
camp provide young children
with opportunities for social
interaction and learning.
Children enjoy being a
part of a group, make new
friends and develop a sense of
independence from mom and
dad. If you would like more
information on programs for
young children, contact Kim
Dixon, GMFRC coordinator
of child and youth services,
765-1494 local 1812.

their soccer skills last week.
Games, skills and drills filled
the week, starting with a full

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as
a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve
a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row,
column and box. Each number can appear only once in
each row, column and box. You can figure out the order
in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric
clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers
you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

It has been a great week for golf, the weather has been
great… most days.
Here is a recap of men’s night July 5, with 45 golfers: 1St

net Marcel Levesque, skins Baker #2, Allan #’s7 & 15; 50/50
winner Bob Baker, $44.
The Guys and Dolls tournament was held July 10 and it was
a lot of fun. Thanks to Ian and Wayne (and Sandra and Cathy)
for all their work putting this tournament together. Imagine two
Capers organizing a tournament, and it still went well! I am
sure the ladies will take credit for keeping those Capers on the
straight and narrow. Thanks also to Rose for the delicious meal.
After all the counting was done, the winners (Field Low Net)
were Doug Carpenter and me. I think I heard Glenn Waters
say he would deliver the trophy to us sometime soon - he and
Sandy won it last year! I don’t honestly think there is a trophy
for this tournament - but there should be! The other winners of
the day were 1st low net Scotty Cooper and Betty Saltzman,
2nd low net Eric & Margie Welin, 3rd low net Glen Waters and
Sandy Adams, 4th low net Bob & Sharyn Trimm and 5th low
net Ian MacKenzie and Sheila Johnson. The closest to the pin
The 19 hole
th
prizes went to Donna Hill #8 and #11 Sharyn Trimm. Men’s
prizes went to Wayne Cathcart #3 and Doug Smith picked up
the extra prize (since none of the men hit the green on #13).
Doug and I had the pleasure of golfing with Ian and Sheila.
We certainly had a lot of laughs. It’s a good thing Sheila was
there: Ian will have to invest in a company who makes golf
balls or maybe get a sponsor!
Here is a short recap of July 13, with 19 ladies out. We
played Pinehurst - except for the three stooges who played
a scramble because they didn’t understand the pinehurst and
still couldn’t beat the field. You know who you are! We saw
a lovely young deer on #8 green: apparently, he liked us all
so much, he came back several times. The winners were 1st
Margie W. & Joan D., 2nd Audrey C. & Sue O’C., 3rd Carolyn
L. & Erma R., 4th Ruth H. and Laura.F. Good thing A won
tonight: she may have to put her winning towards the cart sign
she ran over! (Charlie the cart is OK). Cyndi is still laughing:
she missed her shot and blamed it on A. Good fun had by all.
The 50/ 50 was won by Sandra Cathcart. That is two she has
won, her taxes may go up!
Recently, several teams went to Clare for the Acadian
Scramble (two-person). Although none of the teams came
home with winnings, Wanda and Wendy did manage to take
a few coins off the team of Scotty and Doug and the team of
Paul A. and Mike Clark. It is not about the amount; it is about
the bragging rights. Thanks, guys, and thank you Wanda!

Well, another sorority year has come to an end, and
Mu chapter has finished its twice a month meetings until
September.
This past year has been a rewarding and fun-filled learning
experience. Along with many in-house programs, we met a
number of interesting and lively personalities. We also had
some road trips, from jewellery making exhibits to wine
tasting.
Our annual trip away was to the Historical Gardens in
Annapolis Royal. Members enjoyed a lovely day spent
with good friends, good food and the sights and sounds of
