“The deed is done,” said 14 Wing Greenwood Com-mander Colonel Iain Hud-dleston – on several occa-sions June 5, as a series of signifi cant shifts for the long range patrol community were signed into effect.

A ceremonial parade before the base museum’s air park witnessed the disbandment of 14 Software Engineering Squadron, the merging of its members with those of the Maritime Proving and Evalu-ation Unit, and the renaming of MP&EU as 415 (Long Range Patrol Force Develop-ment) Squadron. The new squadron continues the long association with maritime and long range patrol of 415

(Maritime Patrol) Squadron, itself disbanded in 2005, and will focus on operational test-ing, evaluation and system engineering in support of the modernized CP140M Aurora.

“This may be the most signifi cant movement in the development of the CP140,” said out-going 14 SES Major Eric North, who congratulated his team for the past several years’ intensive work on the long range patrol Aurora “get well program.

“We have a good comple-ment of military and civilian personnel, and everyone put on two or three – sometimes four – hats to get the job done. Everyone kept their chins up, morale was quite high and that’s the important part: knowing we were all contributing to something

bigger than any one of us.”Major Bernie Thorne, the

last commanding offi cer of MP&EU, was emotional as he thanked his personnel for their dedication.

“The list never got shorter, and I have been impressed,”

he said.“The establishment of 415

Squadron is the right thing for the development of the Aurora fl eet into the future, but MP&EU has 56 years of history as a unit: more stories and more interesting things

than I can talk about.”Huddleston commended

both men, and their person-nel, for helping move the two sections so successfully on both the development of the Aurora as an “indispensible asset,” and on the establish-

ment of 415 Squadron.“Both units have been fo-

cussed on similar goals and challenges, and bringing them together creates syn-ergy for moving forward,” Huddleston said. “That’s already paying off, as their

commanding officers have worked together over the past two years.

“With the long range patrol community fully engaged, we can not afford a dip in opera-tions as we transition to 415 Squadron.”

Huddleston also acknowl-edged the pride and support of many former members of the old 415 squadron, “many here to cheer you on.”

Lieutenant-Colonel Jeff Davis will lead the reborn 415

415 Squadron’s historyThe four hundred and Fightin’ fi fteen Squadron formed

in 1941 in England as Canada’s fourth Coastal Com-mand and fi rst Torpedo Bombing Squadron, develop-ing a reputation as one of the fi nest, most professional anti-submarine warfare squadrons. In 1943, the offi cial crest depicting a swordfi sh striking at its prey with the motto “AD METAM - To the Mark” was approved by King George VI.

Within days of the European war ending, 415 Squad-ron fl ew its last operational wartime mission and was disbanded in May 1945, only to be re-established at Summerside, P.E.I in 1961, where it would remain for the next two decades. The squadron was quick to establish a Canadian endurance record with the Argus aircraft July 26,1961, fl ying 30 hours and 20 minutes non-stop. In 1964, it assumed search and rescue du-ties for Maritime Air Command; early in the 1970s, the squadron began fi sheries, pollution and Northern patrol missions.

In June 1981, 415 Squadron began the move to Greenwood, as the Aurora replaced the Argus. It also marked the anniversary of the fi rst 25 years of dis-tinguished service to the crown and, thus, the Royal Standard was presented to the squadron September 25. A “Swordfi sh” reunion was held for the event, with the presence of over 400 ex-Swordfi sh. In 1986, the squadron offi cially became known as 415 Maritime Patrol Squadron. In July, 2005, 415 (MP) Squadron was stood down at 14 Wing Greenwood.

415 Squadron has always been ready to answer the call with professional offi cers and air crew, focused and ready for operations, anywhere in the world.

Squadron.“What an awesome feel-

ing,” Davis said. “Seldom is the journey easy, but I am thrilled to lead you. Moving forward, we must balance all of our priorities, projects, unit events and families; and bring this capability through the Block III Aurora, into Block IV and ‘To the mark’.”

The day’s reviewing offi cer was Major-General Derek Joyce, a former 14 Wing com-mander – and the parade com-mander for the 413 Squadron closure 10 years ago.

“I would be no where else today,” Joyce said. “Ten years ago after that closure, there was a low point in our community, but there was soon a move to make

us in demand: we explored exercises with the Army, we pushed our capabilities outside our community and we worked hard.

“We have succeeded.”

Aurorat h e

National Public Service Week is being celebrated June 14 to 20, with a theme centered on “proudly serving Canadians.” NPSW is held in recognition of the value of the services provided by public service employees, and to acknowledge the integral contributions of employees in the running of federal depart-

ments. This tradition of excellence

carries through within the De-partment of National Defence, as public servants support its goals and missions within Canada and abroad. At 14 Wing Greenwood, public service employees serve as a critical component to the team as we all strive to “Op-

erate as One.” They provide a wide range of services: run-ning fl ight simulators, aircraft system testing, health care services, cleaning services, preparation and maintenance of operationally essential kit, providing administrative sup-port to the chain of command, seasonal snow removal ser-vices. Contributions such

Public service ‘proudly serve’

La fonction publique fière de servirLa Semaine nationale de la

fonction publique se tiendra du 14 au 20 juin et aura pour thème « Fiers de servir les Ca-nadiennes et les Canadiens ». La SNFP a comme objectif de reconnaître la valeur du service des employés de la fonction publique et pour souligner les contributions précieuses des employés dans le fonc-tionnement des ministères du gouvernement fédéral.

Cette tradition d’excellence se perpétue au ministère de la Défense nationale, où les fonc-tionnaires appuient les objectifs et les missions du ministère au pays et à l’étranger. À la 14e Escadre Greenwood, les

as these are central to the continued success of 14 Wing Greenwood and its personnel.

We would like to thank each member of the public service for their dedication to their vital roles. To com-memorate National Public Service Week, local public service employees will be conducting two food drives

in support of local food banks. All proceeds will be presented to local food banks June 19 at the Annapolis Mess at 2 p.m., at the 14 Wing Greenwood National Public Service Week main commemorative event. Friends and guests are wel-come for the event, with light refreshments. The donation drives will take place Monday,

June 15, when public servants will be at Sobeys Greenwood between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. serving cake and collecting donations; and at the 14 Wing front gates Wednesday, June 17, between 7 a.m. to 8 a.m.

We hope to see you there, and look forward to you join-ing us as we thank our public service employees.

employés de la fonction pub-lique sont une composante importante de l’équipe où nous tentons tous de « fonctionner comme une seule équipe ». Ils fournissent toute une gamme de services : le fonctionnement des simulateurs de vol, les es-sais des systèmes d’aéronefs, les soins de santé, le nettoyage, la préparation et l’entretien du matériel essentiel à la mission, le soutien administratif à la chaîne de commandement et le déneigement. De telles contri-butions sont vitales à la réussite de la mission de la 14e Escadre Greenwood et des militaires qui y servent.

Nous voulons remercier tous

les membres de la fonction publique pour leur dévouement à leur rôle instrumental. Afi n de souligner la Semaine nationale de la fonction publique, les employés de la fonction pub-lique de la région organisent deux collectes d’aliments à l’appui des banques alimen-taires locales. Tous les profi ts seront remis aux banques alimentaires locales le 19 juin, au mess Annapolis, à 14 h,

dans le cadre de l’activité prin-cipale de la Semaine nationale de la fonction publique de la 14e Escadre Greenwood. Amis et invités sont les bienvenus. De légers rafraîchissements seront servis. La première collecte d’aliments aura lieu le lundi 15 juin. Les fonction-naires seront au Sobeys de Greenwood de 10 h à 13 h, pour servir du gâteau et recueillir les dons. La deuxième collecte

aura lieu à la barrière principale de la 14e Escadre, le mercredi 17 juin, de 7 h à 8 h.

Nous espérons que vous

participerez en grand nombre et que vous serez des nôtres pour dire merci aux membres de la fonction publique.

Joint Task Force-Iraq Public Affairs

Trailing a characteristic blue fl ame, a CF18 took to the sky in the early morn-ing of June 4, on its way to operations over Iraq to mark the 1,000th sortie of Opera-tion Impact.

While this sortie, which resulted in a strike against an ISIS fi ghting position, re-fl ects an important milestone in Canada’s contributions to counter terrorism in Iraq and Syria, it also represents the success of the Canadian Armed Forces’ expeditionary capability. It refl ects the mis-sion-focus of CAF personnel deployed to Kuwait as part of Joint Task Force-Iraq.

“Our members have achieved much since late Oc-tober 2014, when the Royal

Canadian Air Force’s first transports touched down in Kuwait carrying initial set-up supplies for the Joint and Air Task Forces,” said Brigadier-General Lise Bourgon, Joint Task Force-Iraq commander. “Camp Patrice Vincent, for example, was a sandy lot when our members arrived. Today, it is the hub of Air Task Force-Iraq and sup-ports Canadian air operations throughout Iraq and Syria.”

While the 1,000th sortie was a strike mission fl own by a CF188, the total includes fl ights made by the dedicated crews of the CP140M Aurora intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance aircraft and CC150T Polaris air-to-air refueller. Each sortie repre-sents a single fl ight by an aircraft, but there is a larger story behind each of these

flights: a comprehensive team is needed on the ground to send an aircraft into the air and meet it when it returns. Teamwork is essential to maintain a high operational tempo as summer months heat up, while keeping the pressure on ISIS.

“From maintainers who work in the hot Kuwaiti desert to ensure aircraft are service-able for the next mission to the armourers who load ordnance on CF188s to the intelligence and operations personnel who help plan and assess missions, there is a lot at stake,” said Bourgon. “Our enablers - engineers, lo-gistics, medical, and security personnel - are also essential to ensuring our operations are sustained, despite being far from home and in diffi cult desert conditions.”

Air Task Force-Iraq surpasses 1,000th Op Impact sortie

The kinetic effects of the precision guided munitions delivered by CF188s, the air-to-air refuelling capa-bilities of the CC150T Polaris and intelligence gathering by Canada’s modernized CP140M Aurora continue to restrict ISIS’s movements.

It was only a year prior ISIS was enjoying freedom of movement through much of Iraq and Syria. Thanks in part to Canada’s efforts and cooperation with other coalition nations, ISIS can no longer operate as they used to.

“The 1,000th sortie of OP Impact is a story of dedica-tion,” said Bourgon. “There is still a lot of work to do on the mission, but this number tells a great story of commitment shown by CAF members at Camp Canada and Camp Patrice Vincent.”

June is Recreation Month. Slip on your running shoes and walk, run or bike over to the library to check out our latest additions. Reading is an

excellent exercise of the mind we all can enjoy!

Clive Cussler’s new novel is “The Assassin.” As Van Dorn private detective Isaac Bell strives to land a government contract to investigate John D. Rockefeller’s Standard Oil mo-nopoly, the case takes a deadly turn. A sniper begins murder-

ing opponents of Standard Oil, and soon kills Bell’s best wit-ness, a brave and likable man. Then the shooter detonates a terrible explosion that sets the victim’s independent refi nery ablaze. Bell summons his best detectives to scour the site of the crime for evidence. Who is the assassin, and for whom did he kill?

“Angels Walking” is Karen Kingsbury’s new novel. When former national baseball star Tyler Ames suffers a career-ending injury, he just wants to put his old life back together. He’d lost everyone he loved on his way to the big leagues. But Tyler hits bottom when

Juin est le mois des loisirs. Mettez vos chaussures de course et rendez-vous à la marche, à la course ou en bicyclette à la bibliothèque pour découvrir nos nouveau-tés. La lecture est un excellent exercice de l’esprit dont nous pouvons tous profi ter!

Le nouveau roman de Cli-ve Cussler est intitulé « The Assassin ». Au moment où l’enquêteur privé Isaac Bell, de l’Agence Van Dorn, tente d’obtenir un marché de l’État

14 Wing Library - Serving those who read

Bibliothèque de la 14e Escadre – Au service des lecteurs et des lectricespour examiner le monopole de Standard Oil, entreprise de John D. Rockefeller, l’enquête prend un tournant sanglant. Un tireur d’élite se met à assassiner les adversaires de Standard Oil, et bientôt, il tue le meilleur témoin de M. Bell, un homme à la fois courageux et aimable. Le tireur provoque ensuite une terrible explosion qui met le feu à la raffi nerie indépen-dante de la victime. M. Bell fait appel à ses meilleurs enquêteurs pour scruter les lieux du crime et recueillir des éléments de preuve. Qui est l’assassin et pour le compte de qui tue-t-il ainsi?

« Angels Walking » est le nouveau roman de Ka-ren Kingsbury. Lorsque l’ex-vedette nationale du baseball Tyler Ames subit une bles-sure qui met fi n à sa carrière, il ne veut que rapiécer son ancienne vie. Il a perdu toute personne qu’il a aimée sur la voie menant aux ligues ma-jeures. Cependant, Tyler tou-che le fond du baril lorsqu’il apprend que l’amour de sa vie a depuis poursuivi sa vie. Une série de petits miracles le mènent à un emploi dans un foyer pour personnes âgées, où il se lie d’amitié avec Vir-ginia Hutcheson, une femme âgée atteinte de la maladie

d’Alzheimer qui connaît peut-être les réponses que Tyler cherche désespérément.

Le nouveau roman « Inside the O’Briens » de Lisa Ge-nova, auteure du roman « Still Alice », est frappant. Que feriez-vous si le corps et le cerveau auxquels vous vous fiiez vous laissaient soudainement tomber? Est-ce que vous seriez toujours la même personne à l’intérieur? Joe O’Brien est un policier de Boston; grâce à son endu-rance physique et à son esprit méthodique, il a travaillé pendant plusieurs dizaines d’années comme policier dans les rues de la ville, tout

en élevant une famille avec son épouse Rosie. Lorsqu’il commence à commettre des erreurs qui ne lui sont pas caractéristiques – égarer son arme de police, avoir du mal à rédiger des rapports et ne pas arriver à articuler –, il les attribue tout simplement au stress. Enfi n, on lui diagnos-tique une maladie terrifi ante et inattendue : la chorée de Huntington. L’intensifi cation des symptômes de son père lui procurant un aperçu de son possible avenir, Katie, fi lle de Joe et instructrice de yoga, tente de profi ter pleine-ment du présent et de prendre soin de son père, qui malgré

tout, demeure toujours un O’Brien à l’intérieur.

Si vous êtes affecté à l’exté-rieur cet été, venez examiner les étagères pour trouver des livres avant que les dé-ménageurs n’arrivent. Aussi, n’oubliez pas que nous ac-ceptons tout don de livres usagés non abîmés.

Nous présenterons un défi de lecture estival pour nos jeunes lecteurs. D’autres précisions seront affi chées à la bibliothèque. Les heures d’ouverture estivale sont maintenant en vigueur : la bibliothèque est ouverte tous les jours, sauf le dimanche. Profi tez bien du soleil de l’été!

he finds his one true love has moved on. A series of small miracles leads him to a job at a retirement home and a friendship with Virginia Hutcheson, an old woman with Alzheimer’s who might have the answers Tyler so desperately seeks.

Lisa Genova’s new nov-el, “Inside the O’Briens,” is breathtaking; from the author of “Still Alice.” What would you do if the body and brain you rely on suddenly let you down - and would it change the person you are inside? Joe O’Brien is a Boston cop; his physical stamina and methodical mind have seen

him through decades policing the city streets while raising a family with his wife, Rosie. When he starts committing uncharacteristic errors - mis-laying his police weapon, trouble writing up reports, slurred speech - he attributes them to stress. Finally, he is handed a terrifying, unex-pected diagnosis: Hunting-ton’s disease. Observing her potential future play out in her father’s escalating symptoms, his yoga teacher daughter, Katie, wrestles with how to make the most of the here and now, and how to care for her dad who is, inside, always an O’Brien.

The latest season of “The Midwife” has just arrived on DVD at the library!

If you are posted out this summer, please check your bookshelves for any library books before your packers arrive. Also, keep in mind we do accept donations of gently used books.

We are going to have a summer reading challenge for our young readers. Details will be posted in the library. The library has commenced summer hours; the openings remain the same, with the only exception being closed Sundays. Enjoy the summer sunshine!

CorrectionIn the June 8, 2015 Aurora Newspaper, in the article “Life

skills for stress save soldier,” there are several errors.Petty Offi cer Second Class Steve Hatton joined the Canadian

Forces in 1990, Air Force branch, not Navy. He was diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder in 2013, upon his return from Operation Attention, not Operation Athena.

The 14 Wing Greenwood Multisport Club hosted the RCAF Triathlon May 31, in conjunction with the annual ZX five- and 10-kilometre running races.

Thirty-nine athletes entered the triathlon field, starting wet – after the 750-metre pool swim, and fi nishing wet, as heavy spring rain started while the fi rst wave of cyclists were on course. A 20-kilometre bike route and fi ve-kilometre run rounded out the sprint triathlon event.

The top fi nisher was 2nd Lieutenant Bradley Allen, Gag-etown, in the men’s 30-39 category, with a total time of 1:02:37. Jennifer Greenwood, Dartmouth, was the top fe-male in 1:16:22. Lieutenant (Navy) Marie-Claude Lambert, Gagetown, was the top mili-tary female at 1:19:40. There were just two 14 Wing ath-letes: Master Corporal Laura Roy, 413 Squadron, fi nished in 1:27:48 (with a Canadian Armed Forces Triathlon Na-tionals qualifying time); and Master Corporal Jeff Car-penter, 14 Fire & Emergency Services, fi nished in 1:40:17.

On footA stubborn snowmelt this

spring shifted the traditional early-April ZX running events

Run, bike, swim | Base triathlon, road races an ‘intimate event’

ahead on the calendar, and it was a “fairly intimate affair,” Lieutenant-Colonel Pierre Haché, 14 Air Maintenance Squadron, said as he opened the morning competition on behalf of Wing Commander Colonel Iain Huddleston. An even dozen runners were on course, including the 84-year-old Arnold Robertson from Hantsport and Kirk Maclean from Cape Breton, visiting for the Apple Blossom Festival and wedging in a 10-km win while here.

“This is a race intended to promote fi tness in the military but, because of you others, it means we can hold these events for all to enjoy the benefi ts of running.”

Haché wished all the best of luck, and thanked the Mul-tisport Club, volunteers and

Personnel Support Program staffers working behind the scenes.

Fun By The NumbersHere’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 fi ll each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can fi gure 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!
