Sara Keddy,14 Wing Public Affairs

While the sound of the base drummer defi nitely gets attention, this year, it’s what it looks like.

14 Wing Greenwood’s Pipes & Drums band is marking its 75th anniversary through 2017, along with the establishment of Greenwood as a Royal Air Force training airfield in 1942. Why not show off?

Pipe Major Sergeant An-drew Bruce started early in 2017, gathering designs of anniversary art from base draftsman Bruce Gormley, modifying those files with Aurora Newspaper graphics designer Brian Graves and adding a photographic under-lay by Wing Photojournalist Sergeant Pete Nicholson.

“It’s kind of unique,” Bruce says of the resulting crest and word design, laying on a drum skin covered with

Drum sounds good, looks good75th anniversary art shows off 14 Wing bands’ pride

the grey skin and rivets from Aircraft 119, now featured as a display in the Greenwood Military Aviation Museum’s airpark. “We’re proud to show it off for the whole year.”

The drum debuted in the Kingston Steer BBQ parade July 8, and made several ap-pearances on a busy change of command schedule at 14 Wing the following week. With more ceremonies and community events to come, it will certainly get the chance to be noticed.

“The drum is in the middle of the band – it drives a whole parade. And, it’s the most visible identifier of a band – people see the drum crest and, ‘Oh, that’s Greenwood.’

“ O u r d r u m m e r s a r e pleased, and we’ve had re-ally positive reactions from the public when they’ve seen it so far.”

Bruce says the band mem-bers in both the Pipes &

Drums and the Brass and Reed contingents are felling quite pleased this season: their anniversary is a mile-stone, their performances are always appreciated, and they’re sporting brand new uniforms for the first time in 30 years. For a group that includes Canadian Armed Forces members and com-munity volunteers, it had become increasingly chal-lenging to keep everyone looking sharp.

“Everyone’s always wanted to feel a part of the bands, and the uniforms now really show the wing’s commitment to the bands,” Bruce says.

As 2017 ends, the an-niversary drum art will be divided, with a skin added to the music branch’s museum display here in Greenwood, another displayed in the band room and one presented to Colonel Pat Thauberger, the wing’s commanding offi cer through the anniversary year.

August 14, Operation Na-nook 2017 got underway at locations in Labrador and Nunavut. Nearly 900 military and civilian participants will take part in the 10th iteration of Canada’s annual northern sovereignty operation.

Canada’s defence policy, ”Strong, Secure, Engaged,” commits Canada to increase its presence and operational effectiveness in the North. Operation Nanook enables the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) to continually enhance its ability to operate effectively in the North while improving coordination with whole-of-government partners in re-sponding to northern safety and security issues.

“The highest level of safety and security in Canada’s North is essential, and Joint Task Force (North) consistently strives to respond to all in-cidents, whether a natural disaster or protection of Ca-nadian sovereignty,” said Brigadier-General Mike Nixon, commander, Joint Task Force

(North).“However, no single stake-

holder is able to operate uni-laterally in the vastness of Canada’s North: partnerships must be established and nour-ished in order to meet opera-tional objectives.”

For the fi rst time in its his-tory, Operation Nanook 2017 is comprised of two scenarios conducted by two separate Regional Joint Task Forces. In one scenario, conducted by JTF(N), the CAF will work with other government depart-ments and agencies around Rankin Inlet, Nunavut to re-spond to a simulated barge fi re and explosion. In the other scenario, conducted by Joint Task Force Atlantic, CAF mem-bers will work with partners to respond to a security scenario in Northern Labrador.

“The benefi t of multi-agency planning, coordinated deploy-ment and focused execution is enormous,” said Nixon. “It permits development of rela-tionships and understanding of capabilities that is essential

to ensure a timely response to a real life crisis.”

The challenging and remote coastal zone of Northern Lab-rador will test the ability of Joint Task Force Atlantic to command and control Royal Canadian Navy, Canadian Army and Royal Canadian Air Force elements in mobil-ity, surveillance and security

tasks.“Capitalizing on synergies

with other government de-partments, communities and industries, defence and se-curity can be assured across Canada’s vast northern re-gions,” said Rear-Admiral John Newton, commander, Maritime Forces Atlantic and JTF(A).

August 10, just before 7 p.m., the Halifax Joint Rescue Coordination Centre tasked a 14 Wing Greenwood 413 (Transport and Rescue) Squadron Cormorant to ex-tract a severely injured male involved in an ATV accident 70 nautical miles northwest of Sept-Îles; however, the tasking was cancelled and the crew released by JRCC just before 8 p.m.

August 12, the JRCC tasked a Cormorant around 9:30 p.m. to respond in aid of a vessel on fi re with three people aboard, near Bath-hurst.

While en route, the Cor-morant crew was retasked on another SAR; JRCC re-

SAR calls continue through summer

leased them from the burn-ing boat when it determined the three individuals were safe. The helicopter crew then proceeded to Sambro in response to a vessel that had run aground with fi ve people on board.

By midnight, the Cormo-rant had returned to Green-wood, with individuals from both SAR calls accounted for.

August 14, a Greenwood Hercules was airborne just before 11 p.m. to provide top cover for a 9 Wing Gander Cormorant, out on a regional response. The Herc was stood down en route and returned to 14 Wing around 1:30 a.m. August 15.

August 15, just after noon, a 14 Wing Hercules was dispatched to provide top cover for a 103 Squadron Cormorant conducting a medevac from the fishing vessel Jocelyn & Brothers, 130 nautical miles east of Cape Bonavista. The patient was a 46-year-old man.

August 16, JRRC request-ed a 14 Wing Cormorant and Hercules investigate a small plane crash near Summerset, south of Bridgewater, just after noon. Local emergency personnel also responded, as the fl oatplane collided with some trees in the Italy Cross area. Both military aircraft were stood down while en route.

Afin de mener avec succès l’ARC jusqu’en 2030 et au-delà, il nous faut adopter une culture de puissance aérienne, chercher à maîtriser cette puissance et acquérir la meilleure compréhension possible de l’organisation. La difficulté consiste à trouver l’équilibre entre la satisfaction des

besoins opérationnels et la responsabilité que nous avons d’examiner ces derniers et de nous y préparer. Pour alléger le fardeau, nous avons ap-porté d’importantes améliorations au perfectionnement professionnel pour vous préparer à mener l’ARC vers 2030. En voici quelques exemples.

Mon rôle le plus important est de préparer l’Aviation royale du Canada de 2030, en établissant aujourd’hui les conditions de notre succès en 2030.

All eyes to the skies August 26 and 27, as Air Show Atlan-tic, the largest air show in the region, fl ies over the Annapolis Valley.

Hosted at 14 Wing Green-wood for the fi rst time – and the first time back in Nova Scotia since 2010, aviation enthusiasts should get ready

Air show action all weekendfor the Royal Canadian Air Force’s best, along with a range of acrobatic, speed and performance displays from a list of international guests; and dozens of ground displays right on the runway.

Highlighting the weekend will be the Royal Canadian Air Force’s Snowbirds and CF18

Demo teams, one of every rotary-wing aircraft in the fl eet: the CH146 Griffon, CH147F Chinook, CH124 Sea King, CH148 Cyclone and CH149 Cormorant; plus the CF188 Hornet, CC130H Hercules, CP140 Aurora, CT155 Hawk and CT156 Harvard II.

The Canadian Army is on deck with the Skyhawks Para-chute Team Canadian Army tactical armoured patrol vehicle and the favourite “Camp Can-ada” army-style kids’ obstacle course.

In addition, there’s a United States Air Force KC135 Stra-totanker, the Air Cadets’ SG2-33A glider and L19 Birddog tow plane, Moncton Flight College DA20 Eclipse, Debert Flight Centre Cessna 172, Emergency Health Services’ Super King Air and the CASARA Cessna 172.

Adding to the air show are performances by Third Strike Wingwalking, Charlie Lynch’S TBM-3U Avenger, Mike Potter Aircraft Collection “The Robert Hampton Gray” Goodyear FG-

1D Corsair, Manfred Radius Airshows, Martin Hivon Air-shows, Pete McLeod Racing and “J.S. Hart” Supermarine Spitfi re MK I 3/4 scale model.

On the runways, take in static displays from the Royal Canadian Navy, an Atlantic Canadian Military History As-sociation encampment and don’t miss Rick Hollywood KOPP’S “pyro” jet truck.

“14 Wing is proud to sup-port the Atlantic Canada International Air Show, a world-class event that will host visitors from across the Maritimes and beyond,” says Colonel Mike Adamson, 14 Wing Greenwood commander. “This year’s air show will celebrate the proud history and heritage of the Royal Ca-nadian Air Force, in addition to showcasing elements of the Royal Canadian Navy and the Canadian Army.

“On behalf of all 14 Wing personnel and the Greenwood community, I look forward to welcoming aviation enthusi-asts of all ages to what will undoubtedly be a memorable and outstanding weekend of activities.”

Fans will have followed the show over the years from Shearwater to the Halifax In-ternational Airport, Yarmouth, Summerside, Miramichi and Dieppe.

“To be invited to produce the show on a busy air force

wing, with all of the security and logistics challenges, is a real honour and compliment to the team,” says Colin Ste-phenson, executive director. “We are being trusted to de-liver a world-class event and showcase the RCAF in a way we have not done for years. We look forward to working with our partners at 14 Wing and the RCAF to make it a success.”
