Both achieved personal bests in some of the events they entered. Competing in the M45 age group, it was Claude’s appearance at the WMA, and he fared well in the two events he entered. In the qualification round August 6, he posted 2:10.15 minutes in the 800 metre race, a personal best as a Masters athlete. The following day, he ran the semi-finals in 2:12.27, landing him in 27th place overall. It would be an understatement to say racing conditions were difficult, with the thermometer rising to 42 degrees! In fact, a medical crew measured temperatures of 52 degrees at track Greenwood Auto Sales $500 Military Discount level, with six competitors taken to hospital for heat-related problems. August 12, Claude competed in the 1,500 metre event, again with blistering temperatures, and ran a season’s best of 4:29.15 min (placing 24/ 57).

Two days later, he moved on to the 400 metre race qualification, where he clocked 55.67 seconds and, again, moved on to the semi-finals. There, he posted the exact same time of 55.67 seconds, finishing 17/ 68 overall. Claude also took part in the 4 x 100 metre relay filling an empty spot in the M45 category. The team ran well at 45.77 seconds, good for fifth position. Three hours, later he ran in the 4 x 400 metres M50 relay team, which came within four seconds of the Canadian record in 3:54.41 min, landing them in sixth place.

We were there, and we are inexplicably linked to those family’s history. That never changes. “I’m very proud, and very grateful. I take away an amazing love for the ‘Tuskers’ family.” The change of command parade between Murphy and incoming CO LieutenantColonel James Marshall was held on the 413 Squadron hangar floor, with 14 Wing Greenwood Commander Colonel Pat Thauberger as reviewing officer. “There is no question 413 Squadron remains a lynch pin in 14 Wing operations, and has a permanent role for the Royal Canadian Air Force – and all Canadians. Your mission is directly attributable to saving Canadian lives every day.” Thauberger acknowledged challenges, such as operational funding restraints, but commended Murphy and his squadron for their pursuit in recent years of new, stronger local and regional search and rescue partnerships. “I’m always impressed with 413’s mission focus: you get things done. Even as we speak, we have 413 personnel searching for a lost Canadian on the Gulf of St. Laurence.” Thauberger urged Marshall to provide “strong, ethical leadership so these people can get on with the job we need them to do.” The 413 Squadron change of command certificates are signed by, from left, incoming Commanding Officer Lieutenant-Colonel James Marshall, Presiding Officer 14 Wing Greenwood Commander Colonel Patrick Thauberger and outgoing Commanding Officer Lieutenant-Colonel Scott Murphy. Corporal D. Salisbury, 14 Wing Imaging Marshall, returning to Greenwood for the first time since he was a 21-year-old on-the-job trainee, now with a wife and two young daughters; said he already “feels at home. “This is a demanding and rewarding role. My mother asked me, ‘I have 150 people working for me?” No, I’m working for 150 people, and it’s an honour to be part of 14 Wing Greenwood. “All of you have a demanding job, and I admire each and every one of you. Your safety is priority number one: properly trained, well equipped and rested. My job is to get you that.” Aurora crew safe after abrupt runway crash Sara Keddy, Managing editor At approximately 11:15 a.m. August 27, a CP140 Aurora slid onto the grass adjacent to a runway at 14 Wing Greenwood. The aircraft was in the process of taking off when it initiated an abort, and subsequently slid about 20 metres off the runway into soft ground. All 17 crew members used emergency procedures to get out of the plane “as fast as possible,” said Captain John Pulchny, 14 Wing Public Affairs and Visits Officer, August 28. “It had stopped raining and the thunder storm alert had been cancelled. The runway was wet, and it started raining again right after the crash. The crew moved away, as far as possible, staying together.” The call came in as a “two-bell” alarm, meaning emergency crews respond to “something wrong with an aircraft. “That changed to a one-bell, which means a crash. This is not common: I can’t remember one, and I’ve been here since 2004.” 14 Wing Fire and Emergency Services and Military Police emergency response teams were on scene immediately. East Coast Aikido Steve Nickerson St Ni k The wing’s Flight Safety team was also immediately dispatched to secure the scene and start initial investigative measures. The crew was transported to the base’s medical centre, where all were checked and three treated for minor injuries. All were sent home and were expected to report for work mid-day August 28, for interviews related to the crash. National Director Flight Safety representatives arrived at 14 Wing and were on scene August 28 to begin their investigation and interviews. The Aurora was still sitting in its final resting place that morning, and the adjacent runway closed. “We wouldn’t be doing our own investigation on this – it’s handed off to DFS,” Pulchny said. The temporary runway closure has not affected wing operations, as search and rescue response and other flights can make use of the second runway.

One is that much of the direction and guidance will come through the chain of command, not simply by the passing of information, but by ensuring everyone understands what constitutes sexual harassment, identifying those who may need help and implementing better reporting measures. As well, actions will be taken to ensure that the chain of command can respond and better direct cultural change throughout the CAF on the issue of sexual harassment. Of particular interest is the creation of the Sexual Misconduct Response Centre (Interim). This centre will provide a range of services to all CAF members ranging from providing empathetic listening to offering information on various investigative and complaint processes. The SMRC (I) will operate outside the CAF chain of command, residing within DND and will come into existence on September 15. The “Interim” designation will remain in place until the centre reaches its full capability within the next two years. “The SMRC (I) will be put in place to support all members of the CAF,” explained Vance. “I fully support the creation of this centre as it provides an easily accessible resource where mem- bers who may be affected by sexual harassment in some form can receive assistance and guidance.” One other item of note described in the operation order is the “Soldier’s Card,” which is a wallet sized document that outlines unacceptable behaviours, the expectations of proper behaviour and contact information to obtain help or report wrongdoing. The card presents this information in concise, quick-reference format. “The Soldier’s Card is to help ensure that all mem- bers of the CAF have no misconceptions about my intent and have readily available contact info should they need it,” Vance said. “The final objective for this, the SMRC and the other parts of this op order are designed to reach our ultimate objective of preventing inappropriate sexual behaviour in the CAF.” The operation order itself and other details of Op Honour are available online through the Defence Team Site of the Defence Wide Area Network (DWAN). L’ordre du CEMD dans le cadre de l’opération HONOUR est maintenant officiel Le 14 août, le général Jonathan Vance, chef d’état-major de la défense, a émis l’ordre d’opération pour l’opération HONOUR, qui vise à faire cesser les comportements liés à l’inconduite sexuelle dans les Forces armées canadiennes et à accroître le soutien offert à tous les membres des FAC. « Nous faisons fond sur les efforts déployés jusqu’à maintenant et cette opération marque le début d’un changement de culture dans les FAC, qui commence par les dirigeants de notre organisation, a affirmé Vance. Dans le métier des armes, nous apprenons à aborder de front les problèmes. Le présent ordre d’opérations définit les façons dont nous pouvons atteindre notre objectif dans un format que nous, membres des FAC, pouvons facilement comprendre. » L’ordre d’opération de l’Op HONOUR comporte plusieurs composantes clés qui intéresseront les membres des FAC. L’une de ces composantes est qu’une importante partie des directives et des conseils sera acheminée par la chaîne de commandement, non seulement pour transmettre des renseignements, mais pour veiller à ce que chaque personne comprenne en quoi consiste le harcèlement sexuel, pour déterminer si une personne a besoin d’aide et pour mettre en œuvre de meilleures mesures de signalement. En outre, des mesures seront prises pour faire en sorte que la chaîne de commandement puisse intervenir, et un changement de culture direct en matière de harcèlement sexuel sera mis en œuvre dans toutes les FAC. Une des mesures particulièrement intéressantes est la création du Centre d’intervention sur l’inconduite sexuelle (intérimaire). Le Centre fournira une gamme complète de services à tous les membres des FAC, allant d’une écoute empreinte d’empathie à la diffusion d’information concernant divers processus d’enquêtes et de plaintes. Le Centre mènera ses activités hors de la chaîne de commandement des FAC, et il sera établi au sein du MDN. Il ouvrira ses portes le 15 septembre. La désignation « intérimaire » restera en place jusqu’à ce que le Centre ait atteint sa capacité opérationnelle totale, soit au cours des deux prochaines années. « Le Centre sera mis en œuvre afin d’appuyer tous les membres des FAC, a expliqué Vance. J’appuie entièrement la création de ce Centre, qui sera une ressource facile d’accès où les militaires touchés par le harcèlement L’ordre d’opération et site de l’Équipe de la Défense sexuel sous toutes ses for- objectif ultime, soit prévenir mes pourront recevoir de l’inconduite sexuelle dans d’autres détails sur l’Op HO- du Réseau étendu de la Déles FAC. » NOUR se trouvent dans sur le fense (RED). l’aide et des conseils. » Autre point digne de mention est la « carte du soldat », un document de poche qui définit les comportements Office 902-765-4920 • Bar 902-765-4428 • Fax 902-765-2479 • E-Mail [email protected] inacceptables, les attentes Sun Mon Tues Wed Thu Fri Sat en matière de comportement 1 2 3 4 5 Breakfast adéquat et qui indiquent où TGIF: Scallops & Fries demander du soutien ou Kingston Legion (Branch #98) No Dance signaler des actes répréhen6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Dance: Crackerjack TGIF: sibles.

It was attended by about 180 Lions from 48 clubs across Nova Scotia, including our new District Governor Lion George Churney and the rest of the Lions District N2 leadership team. This meeting was the largest DGO turn out in many years. Under the direction of cabinet chairman Kingston Lion Russell Mailett, the Kingston Lions were busy over the past months preparing and organizing this important meeting on behalf of the district. Registration and a meet and greet occurred August 14, with the business meetings August 15 at the Kingston Legion. A chicken supreme lunch, topped off by a strawberry and ice cream dessert, was served to over 160 hungry Lions by the Kingston Lions catering crew. The Tail Twister meted out $409 in fines for various “infractions,” which went promptly to Camp Brigadoon. 14 Wing Greenwood Commander Colonel Patrick Thauberger spoke to the gathered Lions. Submitted The proceeds from the 50/ 50 draw were given to the Legion’s Poppy Fund in support of veterans. The guest speaker for this meeting was Colonel Patrick Thauberger, the new 14 Wing Greenwood commanding officer. He gave a informative and interesting presentation on the roles and capabilities of 14 Wing and its many units, highlighting the fact many members of the military community and their spouses volunteer throughout the Kingston/ Greenwood area, and Kings County. The presentation was extremely well received. At this meeting, the Kingston Lions Club was recognized for completing the Lions Club International Club Excellence Process (CEP), with Past King Lion Ray LeBlanc accepting a certificate of completion and a banner patch on behalf of the club. As well, Lion Pat Nixon received a certificate for having successfully completed the nine-month District N2 Leadership program. The DGO provides the district governor and his leadership team with the opportunity to commence planning and preparations for the upcoming Lions year, as well as to provide an opportunity for Lions from across the district Kingston Lions hosted a large group of Lions from across Nova Scotia, attending district planning and business meetings.
