Mills (right) presents a gift to new 2 Air Mov Sqn CO Lt.-Col. Graitson (left) at the change of command ceremony last week, 2 AMS gets first Lt.-Col. as CO Lt.-Col. Deborah Graitson assumes command of high tempo squadron By Ross Lees T here are those who believe that if you want to get a job done, put a woman in charge. 2 Air Movements Squadron obviously subscribes to that sage advice as they not only put a woman in charge of their squadron at the change of command ceremony on July 19, they made that woman the first Lieutenant Colonel to command the squadron. Lt.-Col. Deborah Graitson took over command of 2 Air Mov Sqn from Maj. Ken Mills, commanding officer of the squadron since July of 2010. As 8 Wing Commanding Officer Col. Sean Friday noted as presiding officer at the change of command, this event marked a significant change in the history of 2 AMS as the CO position was up-ranked from Maj. to Lt.-Col. “This is really a modern miracle that we are managing to up-rank a position in today’s climate and it represents years and years of effort that I know Gen. Matheson and Lt.-Col. Harris have been a part of, but it also recognizes the tremendous contribution that 2 AMS provides to the Canadian Forces (CF) at large at a time when the CF is largely finding ways to be more efficient,” Col. Friday noted. “We are recognizing that this unit in particular is one that needs to grow. It truly is an historic moment for the entire Air Movement community and for the Air Force.” It was also a good news, bad news situation, according to Col. Friday. It was bad news for Maj. Mills in that the position was upgraded as he left, but good news in that “…such was the extent of your skill and effort that the work of one Major will now be the work of one Lt.-Col. and two Majors,” Col. Friday indicated with a smile. continued on page 11 aptain Steven Dieter may be the first currently serving 8 Wing member to learn he has been awarded the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal. Capt. Dieter, 42, was totally caught off-guard upon hearing he had been awarded the medal through the Air Force Association of Canada. “I was shocked and absolutely surprised,” he told The Contact. He learned of the news through his wife in Ottawa. She called to read the letter to him over the telephone. Capt. Dieter, a 12-year member of the Canadian Forces (CF), knows only that the medal was awarded for service to the community, but not exactly what resulted in his nomination or even who nominated him. He has, however, an impressive record of contributing to whatever community he resides in. continued on page 5 Numbers Talk!

Colin Keiver passes Blackberry to Lt.-Col. Mark Goulden By Ross Lees Colonel Colin Keiver just couldn’t resist going out as a true Canuck pilot, so he did a low pass over 8 Wing headquarters on his last 436 Squadron flight. His command tenure at 436 Sqn seemed to pass like that pass over 8 Wing headquarters – very quickly. Throughout his two years as Commander of 436 Sqn, Col. Keiver said one thing was always very clear to him. “I never got to meet all of the men and women of 436 Sqn, but what was clear from day one was the incredible mission focus these people possessed,” he noted. “Their efforts directly enable everything the flying squadrons do on behalf of this nation around the world.” As he took command in 2010, the squadron consisted of 160 personnel and two C-130J model Hercules aircraft. The number of Hercs has now increased to its final total of 17 and they have been so busy at 436 Sqn they have not had time to look back, he said. Over that period of time, there were a number of firsts for the J model Hercs: deployment of the first J model to Afghanistan; first landing in Alert; first operational deployment; first combat drop mission; first para-drop mission with the Army; and last but not least, the first round-the-world flight by a J model Herc. Inexperience on the new J model aircraft rapidly progressed to experience for 436 Sqn crews, Col Keiver stated. “By September of 2011, we found ourselves supporting simultaneously operations in Afghanistan, Libya and the first C-130J only BOXTOP in Thule, Greenland. Three separate deployed operations on three separate continents with a squadron that had by this time grown to over 400 people, including an army of incredibly capable Lockheed Martin, Rolls Royce, Dowdy, Cascade and IMP personnel.” As he looked back on this day, Col Keiver said it was the memories of the men and women of 436 Sqn which flooded his mind. “Men and women who have consistently exceeded all expectations in spite of me being their CO,” he stated, recalling how he initially challenged them to never let the lack of direction be an excuse for inaction, but to be a leader always. “Frankly, you didn’t just rise to my challenge, you blew me out of the water. You did so with a lack of selflessness and quiet professionalism that has motivated and inspired me as your commanding officer,” he said. “436 Squadron Canucks Unlimited, hold your heads high. You personify all that this squadron was founded upon in Burma in 1944 under the likes of Art Adams, and all it has been built upon in the 68 years since. Your ability to carry the load on behalf of Canada without fail and as absolute professionals will forever humble and inspire me.” Presiding Officer Col. Sean Friday said it was Col Keiver’s leadership which enabled his team to achieve RX 2013 RX 350 8 Wing Commander Col. Friday passes the 436 Sqn Standard to Lt.-Col Goulden while outgoing Commanding Officer Col. Keiver looks on. extraordinary successes while getting use to a new aircraft. “And most importantly, Colin, you took time to really take care of people and families, embracing at all times and bringing to life the words ‘Mission First, People Always.’ It’s really been a pleasure to work along side you once again, my friend” Col. Friday noted. Col. Friday heaped praise on the shoulders of the men and women of 436 Sqn for their efforts during such a high tempo period. “Not only have you very professionally implemented a new and outstanding capability, but you’ve done it while simultaneously operating in two major conflicts and many other areas,” he noted. “Talk about changing the wheels on the bus while motoring down the highway at high speed!” As he thanked Col. Keiver for his efforts, Col. Friday warned incoming 436 Commanding Officer Lt.-Col. Mark Goulden to expect challenges throughout his tenure. “You can fully expect that every challenge will indeed be thrown your way,” he stated, “436 Sqn maintains a broad set of high readiness missions, and at any moment can be called upon to extract Canadians in distress anywhere in the world, conduct lifesaving airdrop insertions in response to a major air disaster or deliver critical supplies to Afghanistan or anywhere the CF operates. As you stand ready to deliver on your broad mission set, you must also continue to implement the new C-130J capability and the many block upgrades that are just around the corner, and continue to refine and take advantage of a squadron that is newly enabled with an aircraft maintenance team that is fully integrated within the squadron, and also work to expand the C-130J’s platform capabilities to the full spectrum of tactical air/land, air drops, and special operations missions.” Lt.-Col. Goulden said the squadron had benefitted greatly from the leadership of Col. Keiver and he wished him well in future endeavours. He told the men and women of 436 Sqn he was well aware of the importance of their taskings after being pulled aside in Afghanistan by a Canadian Task Force Commander. “He told me that when a Herc air dropped to his troops or when we picked them up at some remote airfield in Afghanistan, it was a motivator and substantially elevated their morale. The Hercs, he said, represented a link back to Canada. We were a lifeline to home and gave the men and women on the task force an incredible boost. We were crucial to his success,” Lt.-Col. Goulden stated. “So whether it’s supporting our troops on deployed operations or at home, or supporting those ravaged by natural disasters such as those in Haiti, Honduras and even in our own country, 436 provides a lifeline to those who need it. That is what we do, and we do it for the Canadian Forces and for Canada. It is our mission, the purpose for our squadron, and we must succeed. “Our mission is critical, and our success resides withcontinued on page 12 PREMIUM EVERYTHING. EXCEPT THE FUEL.

(Retired) Terry Chester, National President of the Air Force Association of Canada in his letter of notification to Capt. Dieter. A history buff, Capt. Dieter began volunteering at the Billy Bishop Museum in Owen Sound. During the summers of 1991, 1992, and 1993 he was the on-site summer administrator and tour guide. In August 1992, he was elected as a Director to the Board of Directors, and in May 1993 served in various capacities including Board Secretary. He also chaired the Billy Bishop Centennial Committee, established to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Bishop’s birth in 1994. In 1995 and again in 1997, Capt Dieter aided the City of Waterloo with their commemorations of citizens who died during the First and Second World Wars. He wrote the text for the 1995 Remembrance Day programme, and in 1997 scripted a short, concise history of Canadian involvement in the two World Wars for the City’s “Sons of Waterloo” permanent display in Waterloo City Centre. Capt. Dieter joined both the Royal Canadian Legion and the Air Force Association of Canada in 1993. Between 1997 and 2000, he served as Branch Public Relations Officer for Waterloo Branch 530, and in 1999-2000 served as Zone C-2 PRO. In 2010, he served as PRO for Eastview Branch 462, and still serves as Zone G-5 PRO. Capt Dieter recently volunteered to be the Webmaster for the AFAC national website. In 2002, he was appointed an Associate Air Force Historian by the Office of Air Force Heritage and History based at 1 Canadian Air Division in Winnipeg, in recognition for his past and then-current efforts to preserve Canadian aviation history, in particular his work on Billy Bishop. More recently, while deployed on Operation Jaguar with Task Force Jamaica from 8 Wing Trenton, Capt Dieter organized the Task Force’s Remembrance Day Ceremony. The ceremony highlighted that, for perhaps the first time since the Second World War, Canadians were commemorating Remembrance Day by visiting Canadian service personnel who had died in Jamaica during the Second World War and were buried there. Capt. Dieter said while he doesn’t know who nominated him, he wanted to thank them and he noted the fact the medal would be presented in October at the Canadian Warplane Heritage was “really neat.” “I’m incredibly excited to receive a medal which marks an historic occasion like the Diamond Jubilee and to be recognized for dedication to my community and country,” he said. “I’m finding it pretty hard to suppress a smile. Yes, it’s a special honour.” Several other former 8 Wing personnel are also being recognized by the Air Force Association of Canada, including former Commander of Air Transport Command MGen Marc Terreau, former Commander of Training Systems Headquarters Brig.-Gen. Ronald Button, former Wing Commander Brig.Gen. Gaston Cloutier, Sqn.-Ldr Noel Funge, Greg Spradbrow and Maj. C.L. “Tommy” Thomas. Others on the AFAC List of recipients include former Commander of Air Command LGen (ret) Al DeQuetteville, former Chief of the Air Staff LGen (ret) Lloyd Campbell, and Col (ret) Dave Peart, currently SA to the Commander of the Royal Canadian Air Force. Capt. Dieter’s previous military service includes servingas an Officer in the Cadet Instructor Cadre with Air Cadet Squadrons in western Ontario, and Army Cadet Corps in central and eastern Ontario, along with four summers at the Trenton Air Cadet Summer Training Centre. He transferred to the Army Reserve as an Infantry Officer with the Princess of Wales’ Own Regiment in Kingston, where he assumed the position of As- The Contact - 5 FSCO Lic #10343 Financial Services Inc.

The reverse marks the 60th, or diamond, anniversary of the accession to the Throne of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The anniversary is expressed by the central diamond shape, by the background composed of a pattern of diamonds, and by the two dates. The Royal Cypher consists of the Royal Crown above the letters EIIR (i.e., Elizabeth II Regina, the latter word meaning Queen in Latin). The maple leaves refer to Canada, while the motto VIVAT REGINA means “Long live The Queen!” The ribbon uses a new arrangement of the blue, red and white colours found in the 1953 Coronation Medal, the 1977 Silver Jubilee Medal, and the 2002 Golden Jubilee Medal. The design of the Diamond Jubilee Medal was created by the Canadian Heraldic Authority. The medal will be manufactured by the Royal Canadian Mint at their Ottawa facility. The Diamond Jubilee medal was created to mark the 60th anniversary of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II accession to the throne and is intended to be a tangible way for Canada to honour Her Majesty and to honour contributions and achievements made by Canadians representing the full breadth of our society. During the year, 60,000 Canadians will be recognized. Eligible candidates must meet the following criteria: • have made significant contributions to Canada or to a particular province, territory, region or community within Canada, or for an outstanding achievement abroad that has brought great credit to Canada; • be citizens or permanent residents of Canada; • be alive on Feb. 6, 2012.

Trenton, ON K8V 3S4 Trent Valley Realty Ltd., Brokerage Each office independently Owned and Operated ONE SOLDIER AT A TIME! General Training Cadets experience life in the woods Lieutenant (Navy) Terri-Leigh Saunders Public Affairs Officer, TACSTC W hat do you get when you take about 100 teenagers and transport them into the woods for the day? One group of well educated air cadets, that’s what! Hundreds of Air Cadets from across Canada are currently in Trenton participating in a summer training program as part of the Canadian Cadet Organization. About one third of the cadets under training at any given time are those on the General Training course. “GT,” as it is referred to, is a two week course designed to give younger, newer cadets to the program an introduction to what life as a cadet, and as a trainee at a summer training centre is, all about. Cadets learn about the courses available to them for future training including drill and ceremonial instruction, fitness and sports instruction, music/military bands, aviation, and perhaps what is most interesting to many survival. About 30 minutes or so away from CFB Trenton is Macaulay Mountain, a well known place where local hikers and bikers make frequent use of many trails. Surrounded by beautiful landscape, singing birds and the occasional wildlife it’s a place where cadets and civilians alike can enjoy the environment and learn or just have fun! As part of their basic introduction to life as a cadet, General Training cadets head out to Macaulay Mountain for a day as part of their introduction to basic survival. While at the training site, cadets spend their day rotating through a variety of classes including knots and lashings, making a fire, making a shelter, as well as learning how to identify the flora, fauna and wildlife of the area. Instructed by senior level cadets who have themselves completed survival training, cadets gain hands on experience while learning how they can protect themselves should they ever get lost in the woods. The staff mentioned that the MREs (meals ready-to-eat) are a highlight for the cadets, although food isn’t the only thing that gets the cadets motivated. While she hopes to one day follow the aviation route as opposed to survival, 12 year old Cerene Carby says she “likes trying different activities” and that things such as the trip to Macaulay Mountain allows her to “expand (her) knowledge” beyond what she learns at her home Squadron in Pickering, Ontario. Macaulay Mountain is used not just in the summer by TACSTC as a training area; 851 Prince Edward Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron, based in Picton, also parades there throughout the regular cadet training season from September to June. Major Mike Campbell, the Commanding Officer of 851 Squadron, is also the Officer Commanding for the General Training Course at TACSTC. Major Campbell notes that in past years, survival training for Cadets was conducted at Canadian Forces Station Mountainview. However, flat, open area was impractical for some of the exercises. The switch to Macaulay Mountain has provided a safe, practical environment, where cadets can make the most of their time there. “Shelter building has been the highlight” says Campbell, noting that being in an “actual forest with shade makes the cadets feel like they are really out in the woods camping”. The cadet program is an organization for young men and women ages 12 to 18 with a focus on developing attributes of citizenship and leadership while preparing them for the transition into adulthood through a dynamic communitybased program.

Monday, June 4 was the 51st Annual Ceremonial Review for 704 Squadron. The parade was held in the MSE Hangar at 11 Buffalo Ave on 8 Wing Trenton – the home of 704 Squadron since its formation in November 1961. Since that time many things have changed but this year’s group of cadets certainly made a point of showing what 704 Squadron, and the Air Cadet program, are all about. Weeks of preparation, ironing, polishing and sewing all shone through in the well dressed and sharp looking cadets on parade, under the commander of Warrant Officer First Class Brenda Galt, the senior cadet of the Squadron. Supported by the Pipes and Drums of 413 Wing of the Air Force Association, the parade was a wonderful spectacle for the parents and guests viewing the parade. This year the reviewing officer was Mayor John Williams of Quinte West. Mayor Williams was quite impressed with the cadets and commented on how much they added to the many community events they had participated in. “it is always great to see the cadets” remarked Mayor Williams. His remarks were echoed by Lieuten- ant Colonel (retired) Peter McCulloch from the Ontario Provincial Committee of the Air Cadet League of Canada. Mr. McCulloch also encouraged the cadets to continue in their cadet careers and to invite their friends to share in their adventure in cadets. Capt Garret Watts, Commanding Officer of 704 Squadron, also remarked how well the cadets had done. He also thanked the staff for a year of hard work and the parents for being so supportive by bringing their children to cadets. Special awards were presented during the Annual Review. The Royal Canadian Legion Cadet Medal of Excellence was presented to Warrant Officer Second Class Justin Ventress. The Legion Medal of Excellence is awarded to Cadets who have displayed excellence in citizenship both inside and outside of the Cadet program. The Award of Excellence was presented to WO1 Brenda Galt, and the Most Dedicated Cadet was presented to Flight Sergeant Kyle Peirson. A number of retiring cadets, including FSgt Kyle Thompson, FSgt Rebecca Butler, and Sergeant Shawn Roth, were recognized for their years of service. Two members of the staff - Training Officer Capt. Terry La Rocque and Assistant Training Officer Lt. Meredith Wills – were also thanked for their years of service and commitment to the Squadron, as both Officers are departing this year.

En général, il s’agit d’accorder une attention particulière aux stimuli sensoriels (prendre vraiment conscience de sa respiration, ressentir les sensations de son corps, etc.) et vivre « au présent ». Même si la pleine conscience tire ses origines de la philosophie orientale et du bouddhisme, elle ne comprend aucun élément religieux : toutes les personnes, sans égard à leurs croyances religieuses, peuvent profiter des bienfaits de la pleine conscience. Très tôt, les recherches ont révélé des résultats très prometteurs. Pratiquer la pleine conscience, que ce soit la thérapie cognitive fondée sur la pleine conscience ou la réduction du stress fondée sur la pleine conscience, s’est avéré bénéfique pour traiter les troubles liés à l’anxiété, à la dépression, au sommeil, à l’alimentation ainsi que des problèmes relationnels et de gestion du stress. Les recherches ont montré que la pleine conscience peut aider à cesser de ressasser les pensées causes de stress; elle aide les gens à ne pas se complaire dans leurs pensées négatives. La pleine conscience peut aussi servir à diminuer l’angoisse de l’avenir. Elle peut, entre autres, vous détourner de vos sources de stress et vous permettre Remax Quinte Ltd. Brokerage ” indfulness is the practice of becoming more fully aware of the present moment - non-judgmentally and completely - rather than dwelling in the past or projecting into the future. It generally involves a heightened awareness of sensory stimuli (really noticing your breathing, feeling the sensations of your body, etc.) and being “in the now.” While mindfulness has origins in Eastern philosophy and Buddhism, there is no necessary religious component to mindfulness - anyone, with any belief system, can enjoy the benefits of mindfulness. Early research shows some very promising results. Practicing mindfulness, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) and mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) have been found to be helpful with anxiety disorders; depression; relationship issues; sleep problems; eating disorders; and stress management. Studies show that mindfulness can be helpful in stopping ruminations over things that cause stress; it helps people keep from dwelling on negative thoughts. Mindfulness can also be used to decrease anxiety over the future. It can provide a break from stressful thoughts and allow you to take a mental break and gain perspective, among other things. Mindfulness can be achieved most simply through meditation. Regular practice of mindfulness meditation has benefits for your physical as well as your mental health. For those who tend to get “antsy” during meditation, there are other ways to ease into the practice of mindfulness through daily living. Gardening, listening to music and even cleaning house can become a practice in mindfulness if you take the right approach: focus on the present, and quiet that voice inside -- the one that offers the running commentary on what you’re doing, what you’ve done, and what you will be doing. fax: (613) 394-3394 cell: (613) 243-3600 toll free: 800-567-0776 [email protected] www.remaxquinte.com de vous reposer psychiquement et de prendre du recul. Il est très facile de pratiquer la pleine conscience en méditant. Une méditation régulière en pleine conscience améliorera votre santé, tant physique que mentale. Pour les personnes qui ont tendance à ressentir des « fourmis dans les jambes » pendant qu’ils méditent, il y a d’autres moyens de glisser une séance de pleine conscience dans vos activités quotidiennes. Le jardinage, l’écoute de la musique et même le nettoyage de la maison peuvent servir de séance de pleine conscience si vous adoptez la bonne approche : concentrez-vous sur le moment présent et taisez cette voix intérieure, celle qui commente sans arrêt ce que vous faites, ce que vous avez fait ou ce que vous ferez.

Stephanie Bouchard expects challenges – and opportunity – with command By Ross Lees T he Canadian Forces Postal Unit (CFPU) had their new Commanding Officer Major Stephanie Bouchard signed, sealed and delivered Wednesday morning. Maj. Bouchard said she was honoured and humbled by the appointment to command the historic unit, but also incredibly excited to join this exceptional team during these exciting times. Maj. Bouchard replaced Maj. Catherine Deri, who noted it was hard to leave the Postal Unit which is so much like a family – “…a family that sticks together through good and bad times,” she said. Those good times included promotions, decorations, births and retirements. However, the bad times also included motorcycle accidents, separations, financial hardships and suicides. “I feel so privileged to have been welcomed into this beautiful family,” Maj. Deri stated. “I am honoured to have led the Postal Unit through a historical milestone, which was the celebrating of a century of mail delivery to CF troops.” Maj. Deri said her vision when she took over the unit was of a team coming together despite their wide dispersal geographically, a goal she feels she achieved with the cooperation of the unit’s members and a lot of travelling on her part to shake the hands of each and every postie. “There is nothing that will ever replace the human contact from a leader just as technology will never replace a CARE package,” she said at the Change of Command ceremony at Baker Island July 25. Maj. Deri posted words of hope for her colleagues in the Postal Unit before she left. “Don’t be fooled by the reduction of mail volume that we have been facing over the past few months,” she said. “Your role remains critical, at home and abroad. The impact that you have on deployed personnel and their loved ones is still very real. What you do is very important every day and you should be very proud of yourselves.” Maj. Deri advised Maj. Bouchard she was getting a great team and that she should enjoy every minute of her command “…because time flies when you are having fun,” she noted. Presiding officer Colonel Stephen Blair, Commander of the Canadian Forces Joint Support Group (CFJSG), said the outlook for the CF Postal Unit when he took over was bleak at best, but the stellar leadership of Maj. Deri had helped revive the unit. “If I were to look at the Cos I’ve had the privilege of having under my command, Maj. Deri has probably brought forth the most drive,” also noting she was the first CO under his command who also received a CDS Commendation on her watch. “What you achieved as the CO of the Postal Unit in Photo: Ross Lees Outgoing Commanding Officer of the Canadian Forces Postal Unit Maj. Catherine Deri began a new tradition by passing this horn to new Commanding Officer Maj. Stephanie Bouchard. celebrating the Centennial was excellent,” he said. Col. Blair said Maj. Bouchard brings to the command of the Postal Unit a curriculum vitae that would enable her to succeed. While Maj. Bouchard said she was excited to join the unit during these exciting times, she realized there would also be challenges over the next two years and beyond. “But I know, as well, it is a time of great opportunity for the unit and the specialist postal officers and clerks that serve it with dedication and admirable professionalism,” she said, also thanking Col. Blair for the support, encouragement, confidence and trust he had imparted to her. “I came here with a background in joint, strategic human resources and RCAF Wing Administration but also with an eagerness to learn as a professional of the postal profession in order to further the knowledge, understanding and appreciation of the vital work this unit does – this team does – in providing support to the Canadian Forces Operations and support communities throughout our great country and the world,” she said. Maj. Bouchard thanked her command team for their assistance and advice as she took over command, adding she would endeavour to get to know all members of the CFPU. “One certainty in these times of departmental transformation and fiscal pressure is that units such as ours will be asked to find innovative ways to improve efficiency and effectiveness,” she advised them. “I and the leaders of this unit will lead us through these changes by meeting these challenges head on. Each and every one of you is part of the solution. We will succeed by working together. Tot Tantillus!” Maj. Bouchard (McKay) enrolled in the Canadian Financial Planning Saving Solutions Advertise with us Peace of Mind Forces on June 30, 1992. She began her career at the Royal Military College of Canada where she graduated in 1996 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in honours history. Following graduation, she completed her Basic Personnel Administration Officers Course in Borden, Ontario. In 1996, Maj. Bouchard was assigned her first position as an Administration Officer at 14 Software Engineering Squadron in Greenwood, Nova-Scotia. After one year in this position, her duties were expanded to include those of the Administration Flight Commander for 404 Maritime Patrol and Training Squadron and Administration Officer for 14 Wing Operations. In 1998, she was reassigned to the newly formed Operations Wing Orderly Room, responsible for providing pay and administration support to the operational squadrons, as the Administration Officer. Two years later, she was posted to 14 Air Maintenance Squadron (14 AMS) to provide a full spectrum of administrative services to the Commanding Officer and its squadron members. Promoted to Major in July 2006, Major Bouchard was posted as the Divisional Corporate Services Officer at the Director General Canadian Forces Grievance Authority (DGCFGA) in Ottawa. During her time at DGCFGA, she also worked as the Implementation Officer which entailed liaising with various Canadian Forces organizations to ensure that grievance adjudications were fully implemented. In 2009, she was posted to the Logistics Branch Integrator in the production section supporting the annual selection boards and succession planning activities.

Despite the accomplishments of 2 Air Mov Sqn over the past couple of years, Col. Friday warned Lt.-Col. Graitson there would be no time to rest on laurels. “We can never predict with any kind of certainty whether our next mission will be a humanitarian assistance effort at home or abroad, a peacekeeping effort in Africa, or a counter-insurgency in the Middle East, but we can predict with perfect certainty that a new mission challenge will come and I look to you to ensure that the men and women of 2 Air Mov Sqn are ready 24/7 to answer the call when – not if – it comes,” he stated. “I have high expectations that you will make superbly efficient and incredibly effective use of the increased resources with which the Air Force has newly enabled 2 Air Mov Sqn. I expect you to maintain a balanced atmosphere at your squadron, wherein the increased workload that comes with our great new air mobility fleets is always fully supported and wherein your members receive top notch mentoring and career development opportunities and wherein your support to your members and their families is just as dynamic and mission-focussed as your support to operations.” In addition, Col. Friday told Lt.-Col. Graitson he needed her to forge and maintain outstanding tactical relationships with CF and other government partners and ensure the Air Movements know-how is well represented at the operational and strategic headquarters levels so that the best plans are constructed at all levels and see that those very hard lessons from missions past are leveraged to excellent effect in making sure the next missions are best positioned for success. Lt.-Col. Graitson said she was proud to be honoured as the first Lt.-Col. to command 2 Air Mov Sqn “2 Air Mov Sqn has successfully supported many different operations working closely with a variety of organizations including other government departments,” she said. “the expertise and professionalism combined with the technical knowledge for loading and offloading passengers and material has a far-reaching impact for all operations. The expertise and cohesive movement identity represents the fundamental calues that allows this squadron to exceed the ever-changing demands of operations. I am very proud to be here today to join this expert team.” To the men and women of 2 Air Mov Sqn, Lt.-Col.

Mills indicated he loved his job even as he took over after an incredibly high tempo period and he was honoured to accept the CF Unit Commendation and the McGregor Trophy on the Squadron’s behalf for their performance during that trying period. But 2011 was not destined to be a slow year for 2 Air Mov Sqn, as they launched into the highest deployment tempo period in the squadron’s history, according to Maj. Mills, adding they supported the largest redeployment of Canadian Forces since the Korean War while concurrently supporting many other operations and exercises in the Arctic, Jamaica and the Mediterranean. “The squadron had 65 personnel deployed concurrently (nearly one third of the unit) for extended periods of time, all the while taking care of business at home as the main hub of activity for nearly every CF operation and exercise requires air lift,” Maj. Mills noted. He went on to thank Col Friday and his fellow COs for the strong leadership and team atmosphere they maintained throughout the Wing. Maj. Mills thanked the many agencies the squadron works closely with on a daily basis for their support and cooperation. “The strong relationship we have built with our organizations have enabled CF operations around the world, making the impossible possible in a way that is transparent to the user and many other people in the CF,” Maj. Mills stated. Maj. Mills said it was fitting that Lt.-Col. Graitson was returning as the unit’s first Lt.-Col Commanding Officer. “You are uniquely qualified to lead 2 Air Mov Sqn through this transition and I look forward to watching the squadron grow under your leadership and in the coming years,” he stated. “I admire many things about the men and women of 2 Air Mov Sqn, how they work together to accomplish every task, how they carry out every duty with professionalism, and how they wear their unit pride on their sleeve. These men and women will do you proud and impress you every day as they have me.” Col. Friday called 2011 a record setting year on the heels of a 2010 thought to be the biggest it could ever be. “The mission transition task force that led the return of thousands of containers and pieces of equipment and personnel from Afghanistan was a massive effort,” he said. “the air portion was met at this end and enabled all the way along by your team. This was an historic undertaking and there were more than a couple of occasions when chaos ruled the day. But tough as the times were, particularly over a busier than it should have been Christmas period, you have been truly a leader, fiving a clear vision of the future, enabling your teams to achieve excellence, and celebrating them as they achieved extraordinary success.” 2 Air Mov Sqn personnel also came in for praise from the 8 Wing Commander. “On any given day, the squadron is across Canada and usually on three or four other continents, enabling operations and training,” he said. “2 Air Mov Sqn, you make it possible for the CF to respond to disasters like Haiti, you make our mission to safeguard the north possible by keeping CFS Alert resupply humming year round.” He asked new members of 2 Air Mov Sqn to continue to improve and enhance their skill sets and be prepared for the vision and leadership roles inevitably coming their News PRESENT THIS ad AD Present this July 27, 2012 News 12 - The Contact continued from page 3 in the women and men of this unit – the technicians, the support staff, the aircrew.

Mr. Andy Baran operates the pipeline welding equipment near the water pipeline at CFS Alert. CFS Alert water pipeline project – no small task 2Lt Vanessa Morin-Nappert Station Logistics Officer U pper Dumbbell Lake, the water source for CFS Alert, sits 2.4 kilometres away from the main complex. That may not seem like an overly long distance to move water, but permafrost and extreme arctic cold provide major challenges to the critical task of water distribution. Therefore, our pipeline must be installed above ground and be carefully protected against freezing. This is where Bill Haddock, Andy Baran and their teams from 8 Wg CE come in. Over a six week period, they will be building upon improvements made last year to the lower pump house by creating a new pipeline to take over from the current one that has been in place for some 50 years. This is a project that has been worked on for a couple of years now. Even prior to arriving in Alert, 86 ASU along with 81 CEF combined to build and weld together 900 stands for the project, a large number of which were completed by Mr. Baran himself. In Alert, their work will mainly consist of placing the 900 stands at eight foot increments along the pipeline, welding the 35 to 50 pound pipes together, manually moving them into position, building and placing culverts where needed, and modifying the upper house plumbing system to accommodate the new water pipelines. To prevent freezing, a wire (called a heat trace) is placed along the pipeline to increase temperatures along the system. To reduce heat loss, each pipe has insulation around them and also at the connection of the pipes. Keeping the water in constant motion and returning heated raw water to the submersed water pumps are additional preventative measures taken to ensure water keeps flowing. Mr. Baran mentions they’ve been working on this project for two years now but there is still probably another 10 years of work for the replacement of all the water/sanitary distribution lines for the entire Station.

If you work around open water, you have to consider some other types of PPE, to keep you out of the water and to keep you alive if you do fall in. Protect yourself from drowning by following all safe work procedures and by having the correct protective equipment in place. If you work around docks, ships, lagoons and dams, you will be protected by railings. If you see any problem with the condition or the design of these guards, talk to your supervisor right away. When you go to work on a job around water, locate these two lifesaving devices so you can reach them quickly in an emergency: One is the life preserver ring, attached to a rope, which can be thrown in water for someone to grab in an emergency. Another is the ladder leading out of the water. These ladders should be located at intervals along the edge of the water. Also helping to prevent you from ending up in the water is fall prevention and fall arrest equipment. When working over water on jobs such as construction and painting, you should be using this equipment correctly. Another type of PPE to prevent falls into the water is the correct footwear. Non-slip soles should be worn wherever there is danger of a fall from a dock or deck. In the forest industry, caulked boots are worn for walking on logbooms. When you are on board a watercraft, the kind of flotation gear you wear can make a difference in your survival. A Personal Flotation Device is made to keep you on top of the water. A lifejacket is designed to keep your face out of the water in case you are unconscious. You should talk to your supervisor about the correct gear to use for your particular on-board job. If you work around the water, learn all you can about the equipment designed to keep you safe and dry. And learn to swim!
