Col Joel Roy takes his final salute<br />

as commanding officer of 424<br />

Squadron Thursday.<br />

Tiger Squadron changes leaders<br />

but not its stripes<br />

By Ross Lees<br />

As 8 Wing commander Colonel Sean<br />

Friday presided over the 424 change of<br />

command ceremony Thursday in which<br />

Col Joel Roy passed the torch to LCol<br />

Jean Bernier, he advised LCol Bernier<br />

“to optimize without compromise in<br />

safety and standards” in performing his<br />

duties as CO of 424 Squadron.<br />

In an emotional farewell to Tiger<br />

Squadron, newly promoted Col Roy<br />

thanked 8 Wing for its tremendous support<br />

during the trying period late in 2011<br />

when 424 Squadron lost one of its own<br />

Search and Rescue technicians, Sergeant<br />

“We can’t thank you enough for rallying<br />

behind us when we lost one of our<br />

own,” LCol Roy noted.<br />

Throughout the ceremony, a common<br />

theme emerged as leaders recognized<br />

the families of the members of the<br />

squadron for their support.<br />

“It makes a world of difference to<br />

know things are in good hands at home,”<br />

Col Roy noted as he mentioned his wife’s<br />

support during his term as 424 Squadron<br />

CO. “And I thank all Tiger families for<br />

supporting us while we do what we do.”<br />

Popular CO leaves 8 Wing Logistics<br />

By Ross Lees<br />

While Lieutenant-Colonel Sean<br />

Lewis led the Wing Logistics and Engineering<br />

(WLE) Branch through a<br />

very busy 1,000 days, few would deny<br />

he had fun at the same time.<br />

As he passed command of the busy<br />

branch to LCol Dany Breton on June<br />

1, LCol Lewis and Col Sean Friday, 8<br />

Wing Commander, both advised the<br />

new CO to find time to have some fun<br />

during his tenure.<br />

In that regard, he’ll have huge<br />

shoes to fill.<br />

Col Friday opened his speech at<br />

400 Squadron memorial Cairn dedicated on 80 th anniversary<br />

By Ross Lees<br />

A memorial cairn to the 400 Squadron personnel who gave their<br />

lives and those who continue to serve in the Royal Canadian Air<br />

Force was dedicated at the air park of the National Air Force<br />

Museum of Canada Saturday.<br />

The Squadron’s Honorary Colonel, Major-General Brock<br />

Horseman, thanked 400 Squadron’s Historical Society, especially<br />

President of the Historical Society Gerry Gilroy, for their<br />

dedication and perseverance in bringing the project to fruition..<br />

HCol Horseman noted it was a fitting honour to dedicate<br />

the memorial cairn in the 80th year of the senior RCAF squadron<br />

and its predecessors, which was created on Oct. 5, 1932.<br />

This storied squadron was originally known as 10 Army Cooperation<br />

Squadron and was then redesignated 110 (City of<br />

Toronto) (Army Co-Operation) Squadron in 1937 before becoming<br />

400 Squadron on March 1, 1941, at the height of the<br />

Second World War.<br />

HCol Horseman said the squadron, heavily involved in recent<br />

world events, are always ready to respond with equipment<br />

and personnel when needed..<br />

“We were heavily involved in Afghanistan and the Libyan<br />

campaign has just ended, granting us some badly needed respite.<br />

But you never know when we will be called again,” he said.<br />

400 Squadron Commanding Officer Lieutenant-Colonel<br />

Todd Braithwaite said he was pleased to be in attendance on<br />

this day with current and past<br />

serving members to dedicate the<br />

monument to those who gave<br />

their lives and to the families<br />

of those who gave the ultimate<br />

sacrifice.<br />

LCol Braithwaite thanked<br />

the Squadron Historical Society<br />

for their hard work and foresight<br />

in bringing the ceremony<br />

to fruition, adding he was im-<br />

Think<br />

fast.<br />

Not everyone has time to<br />

preplan a funeral. But the peace of<br />

mind knowing that all of the decisions<br />

have already been made can be both<br />

financially and emotionally beneficial.<br />

We’re pleased to say that preplanning<br />

only takes a few minutes, and can be done at<br />

your convenience. If you have any questions,<br />

please call; you’ll be glad you did.<br />

“While our role and equipment have<br />

the same – the dedication and commitment<br />

of the personnel who have served with 400<br />

unit,” he stated.<br />

He added the squadron had continued to<br />

augment operations during the busiest period<br />

of modern history when needed.<br />

“You can be proud of the contributions you<br />

have made,” he told the gathering.<br />

He said he was impressed with the level of<br />

dedication of all personnel from top to bottom<br />

in the squadron.<br />

“You all contribute to everything we do,”<br />

Gerry Gilroy noted he had taken up the idea of<br />

Col George Georges, a former president of the<br />

society who came up with the original idea and<br />

was granted permission to create the monument<br />

in 1999. Unfortunately, Col Georges suffered<br />

the loss of his wife, had a battle with cancer<br />

- which he lost – in the next decade and was<br />

never able to develop the monument further.<br />

“This monument is to all who served,” he<br />

noted, adding it had been a huge undertaking<br />

as they endeavoured to get all the information<br />

correct.<br />

He joined HCol Horseman and LCol<br />

Braithwaite in unveiling the Memorial Cairn<br />

and 8 Wing Chaplain Major Tracy Graf noted<br />

she hoped the monument would “…bring fresh<br />

appreciation of our heritage” to all who viewed<br />

it.<br />

Riding to Remember through 8 Wing<br />

Capt Steven Dieter<br />

Even wet weather could not dampen the spirits of motorcyclists<br />

from around the world as they descended on 8 Wing <strong>Trenton</strong> on<br />

Saturday, June 2 to begin a journey along the Highway of Heroes<br />

to Toronto. The Wing was host to close to 2,000 motorcycles,<br />

and even more riders who joined together to remember Canadian<br />

Forces personnel who have been repatriated.<br />

“It’s a team of folks that make all of this happen,” noted<br />

Colonel Sean Friday, 8 Wing Commander, as he addressed the<br />

crowd. Noting the activity level here at the Wing, Col Friday<br />

reflected that when needed, the Wing mobilized for a repatriation.<br />

“One of the most significant duties that we have had here<br />

at <strong>Trenton</strong> is to rally the citizens, the members of the base, to<br />

make sure that when our fallen come home, they come home<br />

with honour. It’s been a sacred duty that we’ve carried out with<br />

pride.”<br />

For Lou DeVuono, the organizer of the Heroes Highway<br />

Ride, being able to start this year’s ride at 8 Wing was special.<br />

Last year, the Ride travelled through the region, passing the<br />

Wing. “In four short years, we’ve grown from 134 bikes our first<br />

year to several thousand bikes. I think it’s thrilling to see all these<br />

communities come together for the shared cause of showing support,<br />

respect and gratitude to the men and women that serve our<br />

country.” DeVuono also acknowledged the support of the volunteers<br />

– which this year included American service personnel who<br />

were at 8 Wing participating in a course at the Canadian Forces<br />

Land Advanced Warfare Centre.<br />

Grand Marshall Darlene Cushman spoke about the emotion<br />

of the day and the pending journey. Her son, Trooper Darryl<br />

Caswell of the Royal Canadian Dragoons, was killed in Afghanistan<br />

when his Coyote armoured vehicle struck an improvised explosive<br />

device on June 11, 2007. “Today’s ride is really emotional<br />

for me. Riding the Highway of Heroes touches my heart.” Mrs.<br />

Cushman told the crowd of her visit to Afghanistan, and her<br />

feelings afterwards. “When I came home, and I drove the Highway<br />

of Heroes, I kept thinking of everyone still in Afghanistan,<br />

and in my heart and in my eyes, they are all heroes.”<br />

As he welcomed everyone to the area, Quinte West Mayor<br />

John Williams thanked the <strong>Trenton</strong> Citizens Band and the 413<br />

Wing Air Force Association of Canada Pipe Band for their performance<br />

at the event, as well as thanking the Wing “for their<br />

support to have the event here.” He picked up on the theme of<br />

remembrance, announcing that the sod turning for the Afghanistan<br />

Repatriation Memorial will occur later this month, and invited<br />

everyone back for the dedication of the Memorial later this<br />

year.<br />

Col Friday noted that this event was a joint and combined<br />

effort: joint because of the participation of 8 Wing and members<br />

of the Canadian Army; and combined because of the cooperation<br />

between the HHR, the City of Quinte West and the<br />

Ontario Provincial Police. Of special note was the cooperative<br />

effort between the OPP and the Military Police here in <strong>Trenton</strong>,<br />

working together behind the scenes to coordinate all aspects of<br />

the event, allowing for an enjoyable event for all. The OPP coordinated<br />

safety along the entire Ride route.<br />

The Canadian Army was represented by the Royal Canadian<br />

Dragoons from Petawawa, who brought two Coyotes to<br />

8 Wing to allow the public to see the kind of vehicle used in<br />

Afghanistan connected with Trooper Caswell. As well, several<br />

members of the RCDs appeared in their scarlet uniforms and<br />

lined Buffalo Avenue where every motorcycle passed between<br />

them and a Colour Guard provided by Royal Canadian Legion<br />

<strong>Trenton</strong> Branch 110, as they left the Wing. The Heroes Highway<br />

Ride proceeded along the Highway of Heroes to Toronto,<br />

where a rally was held at the Sound Academy on Polson Pier in<br />

Toronto.<br />

8 Wing’s Flying Frogmen Scuba<br />

Club cleans up Trent River<br />

By Ross Lees<br />

Over the 15 years the 8 Wing’s Flying Frogmen Scuba Club (FFSC) has been cleaning<br />

up the Trent River at <strong>Trenton</strong>, they’ve seen the amount of material they pull out<br />

each year diminish, but there is still a lot of work to do.<br />

This year, they pulled out 15 shopping carts of stuff, including a scooter, a ski,<br />

shoes, bottles and cans, tires, an old wall-style telephone, the gate from the dock at<br />

the Wahoo Café, pipes and hubcaps.<br />

As bizarre as some of that might seem, it’s not even close to the most bizarre. In<br />

past years, the club has pulled out a wooden leg and even a gun from the River during<br />

their annual cleanups.<br />

Formed in 1958, the FFSC is the second oldest scuba club in Ontario and they<br />

use the cleanup dive as the first dive of the year, one in which they also give their<br />

young divers some experience.<br />

The first year the club did the cleanup dive, they brought out two stake truck<br />

loads of material, and that has gradually dwindle to one truck load or what they<br />

recovered this year.<br />

About 20 divers took part this year and, according to Lieutenant (Navy) Katherine<br />

Woodburn, the location is good because it can be a quick dive for both inexperienced<br />

and experienced divers.<br />

In diving in the past, they had seen the garbage and decided it should be cleaned<br />

up.<br />

“We figured we might as well clean it up while we were there,” she told The<br />

<strong>Contact</strong>.<br />

There are currently about 40 members in what Warrant Officer Wade Dominie,<br />

president, calls a very active club.<br />

“We have a huge amount of extremely experienced divers,” he said. “We have<br />

eight qualified instructors and 13 or 14 rescue divers plus a bunch of very young divers.<br />

We’re mainly a military club, but we do have a small percentage of civilians.”<br />

Both Dominie and Woodburn said this was just the club’s way of paying back<br />

the community. They are helped in their dive each year by the owners of Price Chopper,<br />

who supply the parking lot, bathroom facilities for the club members and they<br />

often will also supply water to drink.<br />

“They treat us very well,” Dominie stated, himself<br />

having dived for seven years while Woodburn<br />

has dived for about 20 years.<br />

“The experience level is high and we<br />

strive for safety,” Dominie noted.<br />

The club often switches sides on the<br />

river each year for their cleanup dive and<br />

they even went to Campbellford one year to<br />

dive and cleanup the Trent River there.<br />

Grocery carts are regular finds, according<br />

to Woodburn, along with things like<br />

batteries, tackle boxes, tool boxes purses and<br />

bicycles.<br />

dedication ceremony.<br />

By Ross Lees<br />

A group of bikers from across the United States<br />

and Canada joined forces for a ground dedication<br />

ceremony Thursday, May 31, at Bain Park for the<br />

Afghanistan Repatriation Memorial, ironically being<br />

construction directly off the Highway of Heroes.<br />

Mayor of Quinte West John Williams stole<br />

the show, however, when he announced the ground<br />

breaking for the memorial would take place later<br />

in June and that the monument would be completed<br />

in October for Remembrance Day.<br />

In describing the memorial to the large gathering<br />

of bikers including the Jewish Motorcyclists<br />

Alliance, the First Canadian Army Veterans, a<br />

group of U.S. soldiers and Canadian Forces personnel<br />

and many people preparing to ride in the<br />

Heroes Highway Ride that weekend, Mayor Williams<br />

said of the memorial, “It is meant to be an<br />

area of reflection and for people to pay their respects.”<br />

It was a message that resonated with all those<br />

gathered for the ceremony, many of whom have at-<br />

tended repatriation ceremonies in both countries.<br />

Joyce Kaufman, who acted as emcee at the<br />

event, said she was touched by the level of commitment<br />

on the part of the Canadian and American<br />

troops to work together when their help was<br />

required around the world.<br />

She said whenever she sees something going<br />

on, she sees “…these two great countries, side by<br />

side, standing up for the same principles of freedom<br />

and the pursuit of happiness and liberty and<br />

the ideals that not many other countries around<br />

the world share, but we continue to fight for these<br />

things and, of course, we are here together to pay<br />

tribute to those who paid the last and the ultimate<br />

price – their lives. No greater love has man than to<br />

lay down his life for his brother. We honour many<br />

of both Canadians and Americans who have paid<br />

that price.”<br />

Throughout the ceremony, several cheques<br />

were donated towards the construction of the memorial,<br />

with a final price tag of $1.5 million. Over<br />

$600,000 has so far been raised in a national fundraising<br />

campaign.<br />

Tension relief through progressive muscle relaxation<br />

Progressive Muscle Relaxation is a relaxation<br />

technique used to release stress. It can<br />

relax the muscles and lower blood pressure,<br />

heart rate, and respiration. The exercise involves<br />

tensing and then relaxing each muscle<br />

group of the body, one group at a time.<br />

Though this technique is simple it may take<br />

several sessions before it is ‘mastered.’<br />

La décontraction progressive des muscles<br />

est une technique de relaxation qui<br />

sert à combattre le stress. Elle vise à décontracter<br />

les muscles ainsi qu’à faire diminuer<br />

la pression sanguine, la fréquence<br />

cardiaque et le rythme de la respiration.<br />

Pour ce faire, on contracte puis on décontracte<br />

chaque groupe musculaire du<br />

corps, un à la fois. Bien qu’il s’agisse<br />

d’une technique simple, il peut falloir<br />

Col Roy is presented with<br />

a gift from the squadron.<br />

continued from page 1<br />

Col Sean Friday also tasked LCol Bernier to take care of the squadron families,<br />

noting it was part of his leadership job. “Without our families, we don’t<br />

deliver on our leadership missions,” Col Friday stated.<br />

At the same time, it is a responsibility LCol Bernier showed he was well<br />

aware of and more than willing to shoulder. He spoke of how his children had<br />

two parents in the military and the many challenges that caused them with extended<br />

deployments.<br />

“We all know how challenging military life can be,” he said to his children,<br />

adding, “Your family has just grown by about 200 Tigers.”<br />

In thanking Col Roy for his two years of leadership with 424 Squadron, Col<br />

Friday talked about his achievements, noting, “The squadron has saved hundreds<br />

of lives, saved Canadians in distress. Is there any better work we could be doing?”<br />

Col Friday said he was especially proud of 424 Squadron and 8 Wing personnel<br />

during the time immediately after the death of Sgt Gilbert. He said at that<br />

time the Squadron and Wing personnel showed the compassion and resilience<br />

they have become famous for.<br />

“I was especially proud of our team during that time,” he said. “You wrapped<br />

your arms around our family, you took care of them and then, within two days,<br />

you carried on with your mission.”<br />

LCol Bernier said he was happy and proud to accept the mantel of leadership<br />

for 424 Squadron.<br />

“You are always ready to answer the calls of need, to serve Canadians, to<br />

protect them and to save them from the most dire conditions they might get<br />

themselves into.”<br />

And he said he was proud to be back in this hangar where he started his SAR<br />

career 15 years before.<br />

“I’m thrilled to return here as your new leader,” and he encouraged them to<br />

keep “excelling at what we do that others may live.”<br />

LCol Bernier joined the Canadian Forces in 1987 in Rimouski, Quebec.<br />

After completing a Space Sciences degree at le Collège Militaire Royal de St-<br />

Jean, Quebec, he obtained his Air Navigator wings from the CF Air Navigation<br />

School in Winnipeg and was posted to 429 Squadron in <strong>Trenton</strong>.<br />

His next posting was with 424 Squadron where he specialized in Search and<br />

Rescue. In 1999, he was posted to 413 Squadron in Greenwood, Nova Scotia and<br />

flew more Search and Rescue. He returned to <strong>Trenton</strong> in 2002 to a brief staff<br />

position with 426 Squadron until joining the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre,<br />

<strong>Trenton</strong>.<br />

Promoted to Major in 2006, he was posted to Winnipeg to join 435 Squadron<br />

until he deployed to Kandahar airfield, Afghanistan in 2008. Upon his return, he<br />

assumed command of the Canadian Forces School of Survival and Aeromedical<br />

Training until 2010.<br />

After completing the Joint Command and Staff Programme of the Canadian<br />

Forces College in Toronto, he became the Staff Officer to the Vice Chief of the<br />

Defence Staff until his promotion to his current rank and appointment as Commanding<br />

Officer of 424 Squadron.<br />

Lieutenant-Colonel Jean Bernier is married to Brigitte Allaire and they have<br />

sincere thanks for LCol Lewis’ outstanding efforts while<br />

leading the WLE Branch.<br />

“You have truly been a leader, giving a clear vision<br />

of the future, enabling your teams to achieve excellence<br />

and celebrating them as they achieved extraordinary successes,<br />

such as the Mission Support Element assuming<br />

its high readiness posture well in advance of the original<br />

plan and such as the many new infrastructure success<br />

including the somewhat large one we’re all gathered in<br />

today,” Col Friday noted.<br />

Col Friday said LCol Lewis invested in the surrounding<br />

communities, his leadership ensured a model level of<br />

cooperation and collaboration between the base leadership<br />

and their union<br />

partners, and he<br />

ensured top-notch<br />

support of Canadian<br />

Forces Station (CFS)<br />

Alert while facing<br />

infrastructure issues<br />

head-on. “Most importantly,<br />

you took<br />

the time to really<br />

take care of people<br />

and families, embracing<br />

at all times<br />

and bringing life to<br />

the words ‘Mission<br />

First, People Always.’<br />

It has been a<br />

real pleasure working<br />

along side you.<br />

You have provided<br />

me sound council as<br />

a branch head and<br />

infused the whole<br />

Wing with a unique<br />

and truly inspirational esprit de corps.”<br />

“Over the past 1,000 days, members of 8 Wing Logistics<br />

and Engineering represented by the soldiers, sailors,<br />

airmen and women, and of course our civilians on<br />

parade today, drove and maintained thousands of vehicles<br />

and equipment, answered 25,000 IT trouble tickets<br />

a year, prepared 1,000 meals a day, and maintained approximately<br />

$1 billion worth of buildings and works –<br />

all in a safe and environmentally compliant way,” LCol<br />

Lewis noted.<br />

“While making everything work on the largest base<br />

in the Air Force is in itself a huge undertaking, in 2009<br />

the unit was assigned and has successfully embraced the<br />

additional duty of the support lifeline to CFS Alert way<br />

up at the apex of our country on Ellesmere Island, strategically<br />

situated some 800 km from the North Pole. The<br />

Station has the honour of being the world’s most northerly<br />

permanently manned outpost, accessible only by air<br />

where the inhabitants proudly call themselves the Frozen<br />

Chosen.”<br />

LCol Lewis praised his logistics unit for their outstanding<br />

performances on Jacmel airfield in earthquake<br />

ravaged Haiti, their work in closing down Camp Mirage<br />

and the Air Wing in Afghanistan, all while dealing with<br />

an $860 million construction boom on the base.<br />

“Literally, the face of <strong>CFB</strong> <strong>Trenton</strong> changes day-byday<br />

as old is replaced by new,” he stated.<br />

Even as he was saying goodbye, he thought to mention<br />

his strong right arm, Master Warrant Officer Tom<br />

Fielding.<br />

“I could not have imagined a better partner to share<br />

the command team duties with,” he said. “Thanks for doing<br />

your best to make sure I was on time, observing the<br />

right military protocols of which you were only moderately<br />

successful (my fault, not yours) and most of all,<br />

thanks for being a sounding board, offering sound advice<br />

and giving me the consolidated perspective of all our<br />

great NCMs in the branch.”<br />

He also thanked his wife Deana for her support<br />

through those 1,000 days and nights.<br />

“Deana has steadfastly supported me through late<br />

nights, missed suppers and anniversaries, and blackberries<br />

taken on vacation so emails could be secretly answered.<br />

Thanks for everything you have done in supporting me. I<br />

know I am still far from being nominated husband of the<br />

year,” he acknowledged.<br />

For his friend and successor, LCol Lewis had three<br />

pieces of advice.<br />

“Blame me for anything that goes wrong in the next<br />

six months, but after that you’re on your own; take a day<br />

or two out of your 1,000 days to have fun and appreciate<br />

the great people you have around you; and give the folks<br />

in the Branch their vector and look after them and they<br />

will make mission success magic all day long,” he said.<br />

LCol Dany Breton said they were in the perfect venue<br />

for this change of command, noting he was proud to<br />

join the logistics team to face the many challenges ahead.<br />

He promised to do little talking while doing his best to<br />

lead this outstanding team.<br />

Col Friday said<br />

“You have truly been a leader,<br />

giving a clear vision of the future,<br />

enabling your teams to achieve<br />

excellence and celebrating them as<br />

they achieved extraordinary successes,<br />

such as the Mission Support Element<br />

assuming its high readiness posture well<br />

in advance of the original plan and such<br />

as the many new infrastructure success<br />

including the somewhat large one we’re<br />

all gathered in today.<br />

he had every confidence<br />

in the man replacing<br />

LCol Lewis.<br />

“The years ahead<br />

will be filled with<br />

challenges, on-going<br />

construction, balancing<br />

and optimizing<br />

scarce resources,<br />

enabling operations<br />

at home and abroad,<br />

but I have no doubt<br />

you will meet these<br />

challenges head-on<br />

and, with the support<br />

of your teams,<br />

you will succeed,”<br />

Col Friday stated.<br />

“It is a special<br />

trust and responsibility<br />

that is invested<br />

in you as you take up<br />

the leadership man-<br />

tel. But you have the experience, knowledge, skills and<br />

leadership abilities to excel. You have my every confidence,”<br />

LCol Friday said.<br />

LCol Breton is a native of Chicoutimi, Quebec. Immediately<br />

upon completing high school in 1987, he attended<br />

the Royal Military Colleges in St-Jean, QC and<br />

Kingston, ON.<br />

Following military occupation training as a Military<br />

Engineer at <strong>CFB</strong> Chilliwack, LCol Breton was posted<br />

to the Construction Engineering Squadron in 3 Wing,<br />

Bagotville in 1993. While there, he was heavily involved<br />

in the provision of engineer support to Op SAGUENAY,<br />

John Cairns motivates from experience<br />

By Ross Lees<br />

If you can’t get motivated by Belleville’s<br />

John Cairns, you may have already quit<br />

breathing.<br />

Mr. Cairns had his life changed forever<br />

on Nov. 30, 1992, when as a railway<br />

worker, he was run over by 68 tons<br />

of railway car, severing his right leg and<br />

arm. Surviving the experience because<br />

he was so close to quality emergency<br />

care and a good hospital, this young man<br />

went through all the normal feelings of<br />

going from a life of independence to a<br />

state of total dependence, an abyss of<br />

helplessness and hopelessness.<br />

From the depths of despair, this<br />

young man – who was told he would<br />

never walk again without assistance –<br />

continues to astonish all who see him.<br />

He does walk without assistance, his<br />

eyes sparkle when he meets a new person<br />

and he jokes about his accident and his<br />

present condition.<br />

While talking about his life-altering<br />

accident to a volunteer appreciation night<br />

audience May 31, he draws a somewhat<br />

tentative laugh when he tells them he<br />

goes downhill skiing for half price now.<br />

Face to Face<br />

& Confidential<br />

He knows more arm and leg jokes than<br />

you can shake a wooden leg at and he<br />

doesn’t hesitate to work them into his<br />

motivational presentations wherever he<br />

speaks.<br />

He tells of hitting a wall during his<br />

occupational therapy following the accident,<br />

but how he sprang out of the<br />

depths of despair.<br />

“In spite of my suffering, I began<br />

to sense that there was a higher reason<br />

behind this tragedy,” he notes. “I slowly<br />

became aware that I had the power to<br />

choose my course of action despite the<br />

grim circumstances. That internal awareness<br />

led me to positive thinking and<br />

in turn to possibility thinking. Positive<br />

thinking sets the attitude. Possibility<br />

thinking puts the legs under a positive<br />

attitude…and boy, did I need the legs!”<br />

And he has used those legs ever<br />

since.<br />

He says he discovered the importance<br />

of adopting a winning attitude and<br />

he’s never looked back.<br />

“I aspire to inspire,” he states, adding<br />

he now lives by choices, not chances.<br />

And it was his choice to be at the<br />

Financial Problems?<br />

Astra Lounge that night to speak to a<br />

room full of volunteers, what he calls a<br />

“…room full of difference makers.”<br />

Several other prominent people in<br />

that room couldn’t have agreed more.<br />

8 Wing Commander Colonel Sean<br />

Friday took time to address the gathering,<br />

held to honour volunteers. “It’s important<br />

to take the time to say thanks to<br />

our volunteers,” he said, noting it takes<br />

a village to raise a child and everybody<br />

working together to make a community.<br />

He added much of what takes place in<br />

the military family community “…is only<br />

possible because of the dedicated people<br />

and volunteers in this room. Thank you<br />

for all that you do.”<br />

Judy Christopherson of the Recreation<br />

Association concurred, noting the<br />

recreation association couldn’t operate<br />

without volunteers.<br />

“Seventy per cent of what we do is<br />

through the participation of volunteers,”<br />

she said. “Without you, we wouldn’t be<br />

able to offer many of our programs. I’m<br />

always amazed at the time and effort<br />

people are willing to put forth.”<br />

Wendy Synnott enjoys one of John Cairns’<br />

many jokes as he helps draw tickets for door<br />

prizes at the event in this photo.<br />

Family Resource Centre (MFRC) added<br />

there was no aspect of the MFRC that<br />

could function without volunteers. She<br />

said the MFRC had just finished its<br />

largest fundraiser ever, almost doubling<br />

the funds raised.<br />

“It was 100 per cent because of our<br />

amazing Invisible Ribbon Campaign<br />

committee and the volunteers involved<br />

with it. You are wonderful and you motivate<br />

the staff, too,” she said.<br />

That synergy between volunteers<br />

and community tasks required by community<br />

groups is something Cairns loves<br />

to see and be a part of. It is part of the<br />

change which occurred in his life as he<br />

struggled back from that crushing life<br />

blow in 1992.<br />

When asked about how much his life<br />

had changed since that accident, Cairns<br />

said it’s the difference between a 40 watt<br />

light bulb and a 100 watt light bulb.<br />

“I enjoyed my life before, but I just<br />

didn’t get it,” he told The <strong>Contact</strong>. “It<br />

would probably take another train for<br />

me to have a bad day now.”<br />

If that’s not motivation, most of us<br />

probably will never figure out what is.<br />

arctic hair serves CFS alert and Soldier On<br />

By Lt Heesub Chung<br />

Most people in Canada would not have a hard time looking for a barber shop or salon<br />

to get a haircut. However, it can be quite challenging to get a haircut for those who<br />

live in the remote locations, including those at the CF’s most northerly post, CFS<br />

Alert.<br />

Fortunately, CFS Alert has Corporal Trevor Hill, who not only is a firefighter but<br />

has also become the station barber. Cpl Hill started his tour in Alert on Dec.1, 2011<br />

and assumed the role of station barber responsibilities during his second week quite<br />

accidentally, when he agreed to cut another firefighter’s hair. Next thing he knew, he<br />

fell into the role of station barber, learning his craft as he went and decided to name<br />

his barbershop “Arctic Hair,” playing off all the arctic “hares” that are commonly seen<br />

You might ask, “Does Cpl Hill make any profit running his barbershop?” The<br />

answer is no, he works for donations and all funds raised are being donated to a cause<br />

near and dear to him, the Soldier On program.<br />

Cpl Hill’s dedication to this organization has been motivated by injured friends<br />

Cpl Trevor Hill, a CFS Alert Fire Fighter and volunteer station barber, raised $1,000 cutting hair during his tour, which he donated to the Soldier On fund.<br />

who have benefited greatly by the Soldier On program. Prior to becoming a firefighter,<br />

Cpl Hill served 12 years as an infantryman with 1RCR, serving in a variety of deployments<br />

during this time, and he has remained close with many of his 1RCR comrades.<br />

He personally helped raise funds for the St John Rehab Centre, in support of his friend<br />

Jody Mitic, who lost both his legs in Afghanistan, and Major Jay Feyko, another friend<br />

of Cpl Hill’s, who was wounded in Afghanistan losing most of his sight in one eye.<br />

Knowing how valuable the Soldier On program is, and how every bit helps, Cpl<br />

Hill hoped to raise $750 during his tour at CFS Alert.<br />

“It just seemed like another way for me to help my brothers by donating the<br />

money I make to such an amazing organization,” Cpl Hill stated.<br />

He has already exceeded his goal, having raised $1,000.<br />

The Solider On program was co-founded in 2006 by WO Andrew McLean, who<br />

served in 1RCR with Cpl Hill, and Greg Lagace, to support ill and injured military<br />

personnel with a permanent or chronic disability, for both serving and retired service<br />

personnel. The program also supports their families to attain an active and healthy lifestyle.<br />

In our original story about the Cut for the Cure in our May 18 issue of The <strong>Contact</strong>, we announced the total funds raised as<br />

$8,723. We have since been advised by Sue Rollins, Fundraising Coordinator for the Hastings and Prince Edward County<br />

Unit of the Canadian Cancer Society that that total has since increased to a “spectacular $9,046.34. Once again, an incredible<br />

job done by Dan Gorman,” Rollins wrote. In the above picture, LCol Dan Harris raises another $100 at the original<br />

Cut for the Cure event when LCol Darwin Ziprick pays that amount to get the first cut.<br />

enSS students walk in aboriginal moccasins for a day<br />

The East Northumberland Secondary School Native Studies<br />

class had the pleasure and the privilege of attending the<br />

annual Aboriginal Awareness Day festivities, located at <strong>CFB</strong><br />

<strong>Trenton</strong>, on May 23. Students participated in several traditional<br />

Native activities, such as workshops in dancing and<br />

creating First Nations crafts. In addition, attendees were<br />

given the chance to participate in a smudging ceremony, as<br />

well as engage in teachings on medicinal plants and drum<br />

making.<br />

ENSS student, and member of the Native Studies class,<br />

Megan Smylie commented on her experience at Aboriginal<br />

Awareness Day: “It was very enjoyable. We were given the<br />

opportunity to learn even more about the Aboriginal way<br />

of life by actually being able to participate in events that<br />

would have taken place in the life of an indigenous person.<br />

week OF June 3 TO June 9, 2012<br />

The luckiesT signs This week: Aries, TAurus, And Gemini<br />

ARIES<br />

Big projects are on the horizon, both professionally and personally. If you’re about to retire, you might decide to<br />

undertake some new ventures.<br />

TAURUS<br />

A romantic trip will revive the passion in your relationship. An amazing event will give you the opportunity<br />

to step into the spotlight.<br />

GEMINI<br />

If you’re thinking about moving, you will likely undertake an extensive redecoration project. You can count on<br />

your friends to help, so don’t forget to invite them!<br />

CANCER<br />

You’ll need to weigh the pros and cons of a very specific situation. You’ll succeed in obtaining all the necessary<br />

information to make an enlightened choice.<br />

LEO<br />

You’ll have quite a lot of work this week, as well as some small details that will need very precise finishing touches.<br />

You’ll probably make some new friends whose lifestyles seem very stimulating.<br />

VIRGO<br />

You’ll be the centre of attention, even though you are usually a rather reserved person. It will nevertheless be<br />

very good for your self-esteem.<br />

LIBRA<br />

There will be a rather complex family situation to manage this week. It will definitely take all your gentleness to<br />

solve it in a harmonious manner.<br />

SCORPIO<br />

You might have a few disagreements with your work colleagues. This will actually be useful, as it will help you<br />

to dispel bad feelings and return the situation to normal.<br />

SAGITTARIUS<br />

You’re not always the most reasonable of people, but it’s definitely what makes your charm. When you go<br />

shopping, you often succeed in uncovering some real treasures.<br />

CAPRICORN<br />

This is going to be a busy week for you and it is with a winner’s conviction that you ll confront the world. Your sense<br />

of initiative is increasing tenfold at the moment.<br />

AQUARIUS<br />

Perhaps you will be able to restore your vitality by changing your diet slightly and discarding some bad habits. A<br />

new phase in your life awaits you.<br />

PISCES<br />

You might meet some people who will teach you a new philosophy. You could soon embark on some projects of<br />

a very spiritual nature.<br />

It opened our eyes to their practices, and we put ourselves in<br />

their shoes for a day.”<br />

Native Studies students at ENSS have been learning a<br />

great deal about native culture over the course of the semester,<br />

actively being a part of teachings on natural elements<br />

such as water, and the coming of spring in the aboriginal<br />

world view. They have even taken their learning and shared it<br />

with younger students in the community, and this will continue<br />

through the rest of the semester, as they prepare to give<br />

teachings to Grade 8 students at Brighton Public School.<br />

Their trip to <strong>CFB</strong> <strong>Trenton</strong> for the event was certainly<br />

the high point in their learning, adding to their experiential<br />

base. As every learner knows, there is no substitute for experience,<br />

and experience is exactly what was gained at this<br />

Nouveau Projet Pilote<br />

Programme pré scolaire<br />

francophone<br />

Le CRFM a été approché par<br />

le Réseau régional francophone<br />

afin d’offrir un programme<br />

préscolaire en langue française<br />

à notre garderie agréée. Malgré<br />

que nous offrons déjà des services<br />

bilingues, présentement il<br />

n’y a aucun service en français<br />

dans la région de Hastings. Dès<br />

le mois de septembre 2012,<br />

nous aurons 8 places de disponibles<br />

pour ce programme<br />

Plan No: 7-3-931 For more floor plans, visit www.jenish.com<br />

A touch of country charm lends this two-storey, three-bedroom<br />

home — designed with family life in mind — instant curb<br />

appeal.<br />

Beyond the covered entry is a generous foyer with a built-in<br />

bench and a planter set above the coat closet. To the right is a<br />

den with a 16-foot ceiling, featuring a window seat. Just beyond<br />

a half-wall and archway is the formal dining room, with french<br />

doors opening on to the L-shaped veranda. A door offers access<br />

to the kitchen for easy serving.<br />

The open-plan great room flows into the kitchen and breakfast<br />

nook. The great room’s corner fireplace will make it a cosy<br />

focal point for family activities during the cooler months. Adding<br />

drama to the great room is a partial double-height ceiling.<br />

The bayed-out breakfast nook, with a window seat, overlooks a<br />

terrace.<br />

The kitchen features a U-shaped counter configuration for<br />

PATIO DOORS • ENTRY DOORS<br />

WINDOWS • MIRRORS • BEVELLED GLASS<br />

maximum efficiency, as well as a prep island and a pantry. Off the<br />

kitchen is a covered outdoor area, perfect for year-round grilling.<br />

The master suite also boasts a window seat. The roomy<br />

walk-in closet is accessed through the en suite, which features<br />

both a corner shower stall and a soaker tub.<br />

Also on the main floor are a storage cupboard, powder<br />

room and laundry room, with a built-in bench and a coat cupboard<br />

for off-season gear. A door leads to the double garage, big<br />

enough for a work bench.<br />

Up the L-shaped staircase are the second and third bedrooms,<br />

separated by a three-piece bath with a linen cupboard.<br />

The third bedroom boasts a walk-in closet.<br />

Exterior finishes include board-and-batten siding and wood<br />

shingles, as well as painted trim and stone-based pilasters.<br />

This 2,361 square foot home, which includes an unfinished<br />

basement, measures 48 feet wide, and 58 feet, six inches deep.<br />

S22 - The <strong>Contact</strong> Safety<br />

June 8, 2012<br />

afety<br />

Work behind the wheel can hurt your back<br />

Sitting all day in a cab, reaching and wrenching to operate the steering<br />

wheel and gears - a transportation job can give your back a real<br />

pounding.<br />

Vibration from the vehicle and from rough road surfaces, uncomfortable<br />

or ergonomically incorrect sitting posture and exertion<br />

in lifting cargo can all add up to cumulative back injuries. There is<br />

also the possibility of traumatic back injury around vehicles from<br />

collisions and from falls.<br />

Here are some ways to keep your back strong, healthy and safe:<br />

•<br />

•<br />

•<br />

•<br />

•<br />

•<br />

•<br />

Maintain good posture while operating a vehicle. Adjust the<br />

seat so you can sit up relatively straight in a comfortable, relaxed<br />

position, without having the spine too straight or too curved.<br />

Your back should retain its natural “S” shape whether you are<br />

sitting, standing or lying down. If the driver’s seat does not allow<br />

good posture, see about having it refitted. The seat height<br />

should keep your knees level with your hips.<br />

Maintaining your general good health can help prevent back<br />

injuries, so get enough sleep and rest, eat right and exercise<br />

regularly.<br />

Take frequent breaks to stretch, relax and exercise your back<br />

muscles.<br />

Climb out of the cab slowly after a long period of sitting.<br />

Keep your muscles strong and toned. Strengthening the muscles<br />

in your back and abdomen is especially important.<br />

Hold your weight at a normal level by eating a low-fat, high-<br />

nutrient diet.<br />

Use the strength in your arms and legs – not your back – to<br />

Heather Plane, CD<br />

Sales Representative<br />

operate the vehicle controls.<br />

• Be careful about reaching across the seat to pick up items because<br />

of the danger of back injury. Even in an automobile, it is<br />

often preferable to walk around to the passenger door to get an<br />

item from the passenger seat.<br />

• Investigate the possibility of special padded seating and other<br />

protection from excessive vehicle vibration.<br />

• Make sure equipment is maintained in good shape to minimize<br />

vibration.<br />

If you must lift items, do so correctly. Bend your knees and<br />

crouch down close to the item before picking it up. Do not twist<br />

your body as you carry or set down the item.<br />

Better yet, use a handcart or other materials handling equipment<br />

to lift and carry items.<br />

Do not jump down from cabs, loading docks or tailgates. Instead,<br />

take the stairs or the ladder provided. Wear non-slip footwear<br />

and watch for ice, mud and grease on walking and climbing surfaces.<br />

Use the required fall protection equipment when working at<br />

heights around trucks, rail cars and other vehicles. Hook up the<br />

equipment correctly, and maintain it properly.<br />

Wear your seatbelt at all times in moving vehicles to protect you<br />

from serious injury in case of a motor vehicle accident.<br />

Back injuries have many causes - poor posture, overweight, incorrect<br />

lifting techniques, cumulative injuries, falls and vehicle accidents<br />

- or a combination of these factors. Protect your back from<br />

injury when you are working and when you are off the job too.<br />
