TRIDENT, DECEMBER 13, 2004 17AB Howe attend<strong>in</strong>g baked goods.<strong>The</strong> ATHABASKAN recipeBy SLt Scott NelsonUnit Information Officer,HMCS ATHABASKANNapoleon Bonaparte once said,“An army marches on its stomach.”Most would argue that thisholds true for a navy as well.HMCS ATHABASKAN recentlytook part <strong>in</strong> Combat Read<strong>in</strong>essOperations (CRO) off <strong>the</strong> coast ofVirg<strong>in</strong>ia. CRO is designed to testnewly tra<strong>in</strong>ed Operations RoomOfficers (OROs) after <strong>the</strong>ir yearlongcourse. CRO assesses <strong>the</strong>se OROs <strong>in</strong><strong>the</strong> practi<strong>ca</strong>l appli<strong>ca</strong>tion of NavalTacti<strong>ca</strong>l Doctr<strong>in</strong>e. CRO was a threeweekoperation <strong>in</strong>volv<strong>in</strong>g more than20 warships from six different countries.<strong>The</strong> Canadian Fleet Atlanticconsisted of three Halifax ClassFrigates, five Maritime CoastalDefence Vessels, HMCS ATHA-BASKAN, <strong>the</strong> flagship of <strong>the</strong> AtlanticFleet, and two air detachments ofMaritime Helicopters from 423Squadron, 12 W<strong>in</strong>g Shearwater. <strong>The</strong>Fleet, commanded by CommodorePile, sailed from Halifax on November5 and 6, to <strong>the</strong> Virg<strong>in</strong>ia CapesOperat<strong>in</strong>g Areas for <strong>the</strong> largest fleetoperation of <strong>the</strong> year.Over that three-week period,HMCS ATHABASKAN was a verybusy and very full ship. With over300 people onboard, <strong>the</strong> galley stafffaced <strong>the</strong> challeng<strong>in</strong>g task of not onlyfeed<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> entire crew, but alsokeep<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> selection wide enough tokeep all happy. Anyone of us whohave deployed <strong>ca</strong>n attest to <strong>the</strong> factthat <strong>the</strong> entire day <strong>ca</strong>n be made betterby <strong>the</strong> meals that are served.ATHABASKAN’s galley fully realizedthis and stepped up to <strong>the</strong> task ofprovid<strong>in</strong>g a broad selection of choicesthat were not only healthy, but alsoprovided <strong>the</strong> crew with a little pieceof home.Lead by <strong>the</strong> ever-watchful eyes ofPO1 Mor<strong>in</strong>e and PO2 Chevrier, <strong>the</strong>cooks <strong>ca</strong>rried out <strong>the</strong>ir daily bus<strong>in</strong>essof prepar<strong>in</strong>g and serv<strong>in</strong>g meals to <strong>the</strong>more than 300 people on board. <strong>For</strong>most of <strong>the</strong>m <strong>the</strong> day starts before <strong>the</strong>rest of <strong>the</strong> ship’s company is even up,and ends long after “darken ship” ispiped. <strong>The</strong> members of <strong>the</strong> team havea varied background but all have oneth<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> common: every member of<strong>the</strong> team takes great pride <strong>in</strong> prepar<strong>in</strong>g<strong>the</strong> great meals that keepATHABASKAN fight<strong>in</strong>g as one.Some of <strong>the</strong> favorites that <strong>the</strong> crewlooks forward to every trip are <strong>the</strong>cream of mushroom soup, <strong>the</strong> orangeglazed chicken and rice, and <strong>the</strong> roastbeef d<strong>in</strong>ner with Yorkshire pudd<strong>in</strong>g.Probably <strong>the</strong> ATHABASKAN all timefavorite; <strong>the</strong> meal that you hearrumoured on three deck two days prior,is <strong>the</strong> TGI Friday’s Style JackDaniel’s Chicken and Ribs night.This is a meal where most membersof <strong>the</strong> crew abandon knife and forkand simply eat it <strong>the</strong> way it is best—with <strong>the</strong>ir hands. It started out as aone-time th<strong>in</strong>g, but due to populardemand it has taken a permanentplace on ATHABASKAN’s menu.“Over <strong>the</strong> past 18 months as FleetChief, I had <strong>the</strong> opportunity to sail onmost of <strong>the</strong> ships with<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>For</strong>mation,”said Fleet Chief, CPO1 Arseneau.“I will admit <strong>the</strong> quality of foodbe<strong>in</strong>g provided to our sailors for <strong>the</strong>most part, is second to none. Someships however have gone one stepfur<strong>the</strong>r <strong>in</strong> certa<strong>in</strong> areas. One examplewould be HMCS ATHABASKAN,where <strong>the</strong> elaborate and creative saladbar is one of <strong>the</strong> f<strong>in</strong>est I’ve seen atsea. One <strong>ca</strong>n have a full meal if sodesired. A new generic menu <strong>in</strong>troducedto <strong>the</strong> Fleet last spr<strong>in</strong>g has provideda standard for all ships to follow.ATHABASKAN has taken <strong>the</strong>seproposals to heart and produced asuperb product. Well Done to <strong>the</strong> galleycrew.”Capta<strong>in</strong>(N) Donaldson, ATHA-BASKAN’s Command<strong>in</strong>g Officer,also praised <strong>the</strong> Galley crew. “Weowe much of our success as a shipand as a team to <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>credible effortsand talents of our Galley staff andthose that support <strong>the</strong>m,” he said.“<strong>The</strong>y go from crowd pleasers tohaute cuis<strong>in</strong>e without miss<strong>in</strong>g a beat,and do a great job <strong>in</strong> keep<strong>in</strong>g thisbusy, full Flagship function<strong>in</strong>gLOCAL PROFESSIONALS WORKING FOR YOU!Shopp<strong>in</strong>g for a Mortgage?“low mortgage<strong>in</strong>terest ratesare just <strong>the</strong>beg<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g...”Take advantage of Bonnie’s 16 yearsof lend<strong>in</strong>g experience and herf<strong>in</strong>ancial plann<strong>in</strong>g experience.CALL TODAY FOR YOUR FREE MORTGAGE ANALYSIS!Bonnie Morgan-Hamm, CFP 1-902-233-3577Accredited Mortgage Professional Fax: 1-902-876-0842<strong>The</strong> Smart Move to Make Your <strong>ca</strong>reers are on <strong>the</strong> move.
