Annual inspections of 14 Wing Greenwood play-grounds in July have ended the fun at at least one small park.

The playground structure in the Residential Housing Units neighbourhood be-hind Canada Post has been demolished, after safety checks turned up a number of non-repairable problems, including rot and issues with fasteners.

“We deemed it unsafe,” said Major Steve Button, Wing Construction Engineer-ing Offi cer.

The playground was cor-doned off for a couple of weeks, before crews re-moved it altogether. Another small playground in the RHU lodges has also seen some smaller pieces of equipment

removed.Any work to replace the

removed equipment won’t happen before next spring and it depends on budgets, but there will be discussions, Button said, on whether in-stallations should happen in

those affected playgrounds, or if the wing’s focus should be on enhancing the central Church Street playground. This is the newest play area on the wing, and compli-ments the community centre and outdoor pool.

Playground issues affect two 14 Wing sites

The playground serving the Residential Housing Units neighbourhood behind Canada Post was removed ear-lier this month by 14 Wing Greenwood crews due to age and safety issues. Submitted

The role of honorary colonel with the Royal Canadian Air Force is a long standing insti-tution. The Canadian tradition of honouring regional or local dignitaries with an honor-ary rank in the military goes back to 1857, although it was 1895 before the fi rst honorary colonel was appointed. In the last 30 years, Canadians from all spectrums of society have been appointed to the list of honoraries: musicians, televi-sion personalities, members of academia and executives from all manner of business and industry.

August 14, 14 Construction Engineering Squadron wel-comed its new honorary colo-

Hennessey takes on 14 CES honorary duties

nel, Dan Hennessey, during the offi cial change of appointment ceremony. Hennessey replaces outgoing Honorary Colonel Antoni S. Wojcik, appointed in September 2010. Hennessey is currently the executive di-rector of the Bridgewater Area Chamber of Commerce, but has been active in prostate cancer advocacy and working for veterans, past and present, to honour the sacrifi ces they have made - and continue to make - for our country.

Hennessey said, as a young boy in 1970, he proudly wore the uniform of a Royal Cana-dian Air Cadet with 18 Dart-mouth Lions. Those early days of Cadet training have stayed

with him all these years, and it is great to be back in “air force blue again.” Hennessey said this three-year appointment is a great honour, and he is look-ing forward to giving back to those that give so much every day, here and around the world. He wants to familiarize himself with all aspects of the squadron and the associated fl ights: as he stated, “until you walk in the boots of those you represent, you will never begin to fully understand their struggles and successes.”

Major Rick Leighton, com-manding offi cer of 14 CES, said “14 Construction Engineering Squadron is delighted Dan has graciously accepted the

position and, with his strong community ties, I am confi dent he will be a great addition to the 14 CES team.”

14 Construction Engineering Squadron is located, along with 143 Construction Engineering

Flight, in the Bridgewater area and also includes 144 CEF in Pictou, 91 CEF in Gander, Newfoundland and 192 CEF in Aldergrove, British Columbia.

The visibility honorary colo-nels bring to the Royal Cana-

dian Air Force and the pride the men and women of the air force feel in their honorary colonels provides an important link between the air force and the communities in which it is based.

14 Wing Greenwood is set to start construction of a set of transmission towers to the north of the fl ower streets in the Residential Housing Units.

With the return of a study on emissions, and clearance all

limits and standards are below national and health guidelines, work could get underway as early as this week.

Rick Nippard, 14 Wing Con-struction Engineering’s engi-neering offi cer, says the three 120-foot towers will eventually replace the communications role of towers and antennae

fi xed to the to-be-replaced air traffic control tower on the base’s airfi eld. This is all part of a long-term project to build a new air traffi c control tower over the next couple of years; it will take a year to build the three new towers, and cost about $3 million. The work is being contracted out.

The Wing General Safety Offi ce was waiting for a spring evaluation of potential radio frequency radiation emissions to come back before giving the tower project the green light. The Quality Engineering Test Establishment, Department of National Defense, based its results on “worst case sce-

nario” data: all three towers’ antennae transmitting at full strength (52.5 Watts each) at the same time. Total exposure at the closest possible place to stand below the towers is more than 20 times below Health Canada limits. Levels at the nearest residence, for comparison, are much lower

than typical electric fi eld lev-els produced by a personal cellphone. No restrictions for the new transmitter site were recommended, but QETE rec-ommends the site be surveyed and exposure levels tested for fi nal proof of compliance with Health Canada standards once it is fully constructed.

Tower project cleared for base communications

ROLLINGS, Geraldine “Gerry” ElizabethKingston, NS

ROLLINGS, Geraldine “Gerry” Elizabeth – 68 of Kingston passed away at home peacefully, Saturday, August 15, 2015. Born in Sydney, Cape Breton, she the daughter of the late Ross and Audrey (Boyce) Bennett. In her early years Gerry began a career with DND in Food Services at Camp Borden, Ontario. She also worked later on, in the same occupation at C.F.B. Cornwallis Training Base and 14 Wing Greenwood. Gerry is survived by her husband Dan, Kingston; daughter Tammy Rollings, Kingston and son Sean (Taarna) Rollings, Auburn; brother Dan Bennett, Lethbridge, Alberta and granddaughter Kaitlyn Rollings. She was predeceased by a son David. By request, cremation has taken place and there will be no service at this time. Donations in memory may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society. Arrangements have been entrusted to the Middleton Funeral Home 398 Main St., (902) 825-3448. Online guestbook may be signed by visiting: www.middletonfuneralhome.com

The family of Cadet Gabriel Comeau issued a statement August 19, acknowledging the support of family, friends and strangers following the sudden death of Comeau at the Green-wood Cadet Training Centre at 14 Wing Greenwood.

The 13-year-old from Quis-pamsis was a member of 161 Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron in Saint John, New Brunswick, attending the Cadet summer camp. Comeau had exited the living quarters in distress shortly after lunch Au-gust 4, and staff immediately initiated fi rst aid and contacted emergency services, which ar-rived within minutes. Comeau was transported to the nearby 14 Wing Greenwood Medical Clinic, then to Valley Regional Hospital in Kentville, where he was pronounced deceased.

“We would like to thank everyone for their love, sup-port and comfort over the last two weeks,” the family said. “Gabriel was part of such an incredible community that has pulled together for us in our time of greatest need. Gabriel had a gift to light up any room

Monitoring and testing of the Residential Housing Units’ wa-ter supply is one of the services 14 Wing Greenwood Construc-tion Engineers perform on a regular basis.

As part of the monitoring program it was noted chlorine levels have fallen off in certain areas and, as a result, there is a requirement to fl ush the domestic water main lines in

the RHUs to ensure a proper level of chlorine is maintained throughout the system.

In order to reduce the amount of time residents may experience water discoloura-tion, fl ushing will take place during a minimum usage pe-riod at midnight on a monthly basis. The fl ushing may cause water discolouration in some housing units for a brief pe-

with his smile, and his light has never shone brighter than we’ve seen during this time.

“Gabe suffered a sudden and severe asthma attack that had no warning. It could have hap-pened anywhere. We are thank-ful for the fact that it happened while at a Cadet Training Centre – Gabe had immediate medical care of the fi nest quality. They went above and beyond to try and save our boy. We are so thankful for the whole team that responded that day.

The family is fi rm in saying their son “would never want this to be used as an excuse to exclude youth with pre-existing health concerns from orga-nizations and activities such as Cadets and Cadet Training Centres. He had a passion for all activities, from Cadets to music, to fi shing and friends. Gabe loved that he could do whatever he set his mind to and be part of the fun in life.”

He is survived by parents Stephanie and Robert and brothers Nathaniel and Nicho-las. The funeral service was held at École Samuel de Cham-plain, Saint John, August 14.

RHU water discolourationriod of time; however, as the flushing regime proceeds, this will become less and less apparent. The discoloration is purely aesthetic; the water is safe and tested potable. If your water is discoloured, it is recommended you open a tap and let the water run until it is clear.

Flushing will be done by fi re hall personnel at the fi re hy-

drant at the end of Lilac Street on the 13th of every month at midnight, and from the fi re hy-drant at the end of Lodge Road on the 14th of every month at midnight. By exception fi re hall personnel will conduct the fi rst fl ushings August 15 and 16.

Réponse à l’eau décolorée dans les Logements MilitairesLa surveillance, contrôle et

tests du système de distribu-tion d’eau dans le secteur des logements militaires est un des services que le génie de construction performe régu-lièrement.

Il a été observé que le niveau de chlore a chuté dans certai-nes zones et conséquemment il est requis de drainer ces tuyaux d’eau pour ramener le chlore à un niveau acceptable

au travers de tout le système de distribution.

Afi n de réduire la duration que les résidents seront affectés par la décoloration de l’eau, le drainage prendra place men-suellement à minuit durant les heures d’utilisation minimale de l’eau. Le drainage peut causer la décoloration de l’eau dans cer-tains logements militaires pour une période de temps brève. Cependant à mesure que le pro-

gramme de drainage continue le problème de décoloration sera réduit. La décoloration est pure-ment esthétique et la consom-mation ne pose pas de risque, par contre si l’eau du robinet est colorée il est recommandé de la laisser couler jusqu’à ce qu’elle devient claire.

Le drainage sera effectué par le personnel du poste des incendies comme suit : le 13 de chaque mois à minuit à la fi n de

la rue Lilac et le 14 de chaque mois à minuit à la fi n de la rue Lodge Road. Le drainage durera moins d’une heure à chaque fois. Par exception le personnel de poste d’incendies effectuera les premières sessions de drai-nage le 15 aout et le 16 aout.

Si vous avez des questions ou inquiétudes veuillez commu-niquer au bureau de réception du génie de construction au 902-765-1494 poste 5207.

Air Force Historian, Royal Canadian Air Force

A piece - well, actually, many pieces - of Royal Canadian Air Force history rests partially buried by silt, 60 feet under-water, just a short distance off the Swedish coast.

Havsresan, or “Sea Jour-ney” in English, a dedicated historic sea exploration group sponsored by the prestigious Lund University of Sweden; made the accidental discovery of the RCAF Halifax. Enter Karl Kjarsgaard, a self-described “Scandahoovian,” due to his Viking heritage. He is a former Air Canada senior captain and founder/ project manager of the internationally recog-nized organization, Halifax 57 Rescue (Canada). The Swedes requested him to come and act as an adviser due to his many successful Halifax recoveries, including NA337, which today proudly sits in the National Air Force Museum of Canada at 8 Wing Trenton. A proposed joint re-covery by the Havsresan and Halifax 57 Rescue (Canada) is being planned, and more progress reports on the pos-sible recovery of this historic RCAF Halifax are available at www.57rescuecanada.com.

The squadronNo. 405 “Vancouver” (B)

Squadron was the RCAF’s fi rst overseas bomber squadron. At the time, the squadron was based at Gransden Lodge, Bedfordshire, England; com-manded by legendary Group Captain John Emilius “John-nie” Fauquier DSO, DFC of Ot-tawa. In turn, No. 405 Squad-ron was part of the famous No. 8 (PFF) Group, better known as the Pathfi nders, commanded by the tough, no-nonsense Aussie Group Captain Don Bennett CBE, DSO.

The aircraftThe “Halibag,”’ or “Hallie,”

as the Handley Page Halifax was affectionately known; was the RCAF’s fi rst four-engine heavy bomber. Many young Canadians would fl y their fi rst operation in this type. The Halifax was the workhorse of the RCAF until the introduction of the Avro Lancaster.

Halifax HR871 was a B. Mk. II Series IA, one of a serial block of 47 (HR837 – HR880) aircraft built by Handley Page’s facility at Radlett Aerodrome in Hertfordshire. HR871 was powered by four 1,390 horse-power Rolls Royce Merlin liquid-cooled V-12 piston en-gines. Various versions of the Halifax equipped RCAF squadrons and saw service right up to the end of the war. The following RCAF squadrons used the Halifax operationally: No.’s 405 “Vancouver,” 408 “Goose,” 415 “Swordfish,” 419 “Moose,” 420 “Snowy Owl,” 424 “Tiger,” 425 “Alou-ette,” 426 “Thunderbird,” 427 “Lion,” 428 “Ghost,” 429 “Bi-son,” 431 “Iroquois,”433 “Por-cupine” and 434 “Bluenose.” The following RCAF Heavy Conversion Units used the Halifax in England: numbers 1659, 1664 “Caribou” and 1666 “Mohawk.”

Seventy per cent of the 10,659 Canadians killed in action while serving with RAF Bomber Command were fl ying on Halifax bombers.

HR871Halifax B. Mk. II’s served

with No. 405 (B) Squadron from April 1942 to September 1943, when they were replaced by the Avro Lancaster B. Mk. I and III. While in service, incidentally the only unit that operated HR871, it carried the code LQ- B. LQ is the squadron identifi er, while B is the indi-vidual aircraft radio call letter.

On the night of August 2/ 3, 1943, RAF Bomber Command

despatched a force of 740 aircraft, comprised of 329 Avro Lancasters, 235 Handley Page Halifaxes, 105 Short Stirlings, 66 Vickers Wellingtons and fi ve de Havilland Mosquitos. Their “target for tonight” was the port city of Hamburg, Germany. “Operation Gomor-rah,” as the joint British and American bombing campaign against Hamburg was dubbed, commenced July 24, 1943. The British were bombing by night; the Americans by day. This would be the last night of the operation.

Crews were met by a mas-sive thunderstorm over Ger-many. The violent weather forced the return of quite a few aircraft. Other crews carried on to their designated alternate targets. At least four, if not more, aircraft succumbed to severe icing, lightning strikes and bone-jarring turbulence. It was a very costly opera-tion, with little to show. Thirty

aircraft - which included 13 Lancasters, Halifaxes, four Wellingtons and three Stirlings - were lost. That represented 4.1 per cent of the total force sent out that night.

The crewPilot Sergeant John Aly-

wyn Phillips DFM, RAFVR (later DFC, DFM) and his crew - Flight Engineer Sergeant H. C. McLean, RCAF; Navigator F/S G.W. Mainprize, RCAF; bomb aimer Sergeant. V. A. Knight, RAFVR; wireless operator Ser-geant R. A. Andrews, RAFVR; mid-upper gunner Sergeant W. H. King, RCAF; and tail gunner

Sergeant L. D. Kohnke, RCAF – were the last fl ight of ‘B’ for Baker, wheels-up from Grans-den Lodge at 22:58 hours. During the outbound leg to Hamburg, they encountered the aforementioned thunder-storm around 21,000 feet. Ice began to accumulate on the Halifax’s control surfaces, making it sluggish and increas-ingly diffi cult to control. They would not have stood much of a chance had they been forced to evade night fi ghters or fl ak, and Phillips quickly made the decision to dropping the TIs – Target Indicators. Moments later, the forward section of the Halifax was struck by lightning. Both inner engines were knocked out, the radio was useless and several critical instruments stopped function-ing. The brilliant fl ash tempo-rarily blinded Phillips, and he lost control of the lumbering bomber momentarily. With a degree of control and his sight

back, Phillips had to weigh the risks of trying to fl y his crippled bomber back across the unforgiving North Sea back to England. The decision was made to turn the aircraft in a northerly direction, with the hope of reaching neutral Sweden.

Flying at just under 4,000 feet above the Baltic Sea, they made visual contact with a lighthouse and lights from a number of dwellings at Fal-sterbo. The aircraft passed Ringsjön and Vombsjön. Phillips changed course to a south-westerly heading, which would take the aircraft back

out over the Baltic Sea. He trimmed the controls, and then gave the command to bail out. They were in close proximity to Flyinge, Sweden’s largest and best-known horse breeding station. One by one, they fell into the dark sky.

while the aircraft was at ap-propriately 3,000 feet, Phillips jumped. He slowly drifted until his descent came to an abrupt end in a farmer’s field near Esarp. He had landed on top of an unsuspecting bovine: alas, the poor cow did not survive (and probably ended up as

the farmer’s main course for quite a few dinners). Phillips gathered up his parachute and set off into the unknown. After awhile, he fl agged down the driver of a milk truck and managed to persuade the reluctant driver to take him to Malmö, where he ended up in the hands of the police. The rest of the crew was rounded up and transported to the army barracks at Revingehed. They went through the custom-ary interrogation by air force intelligence offi cers. The crew was very hesitant to divulge any information at all. In the end, the Swedes got nothing

useful from them. When the interrogations were over, the entire crew boarded a train to Falun, where they were to be interned. The crew was repatri-ated in groups back to England during January 1944.

Post-warOriginally from Swansea,

Wales, Aylwyn, 92, now enjoys life with his wife, Mabel, in Kingston upon Hull (simply known as Hull), in the East Riding of Yorkshire. He wrote a riveting book chronicling wartime bombing operations during the spring and summer of 1943, entitled “Valley of the Shadow of Death.” Sadly, he

is the only surviving member of his crew. Aylwyn is excited about the discovery of his aircraft. He said to Karl with a big grin, “if you fi nd the cockpit of the Halifax, I want my seat cushion back.” Aylwyn had a special seat cushion made to give him a few more inches of height in the pilot’s seat. He may be short in stature, but there is no denying he’s tall in courage.

2015

The 9th 14 Wing Logistics and Engineering Branch Charity Golf Tournament in

support of the IWK Founda-tion was held August 7 at the Greenwood Golf Club. The

Great golf effort for 9th WLE IWK charity eventIWK Foundation supports the IWK Hospital, located in Halifax, which provides state of the art services for children’s health, women’s and newborn Health, and mental health and addictions services.

As always, participation in this event was fantastic, with a total of 22 teams comprised of civilian and military participants from all over the wing. Organized by two extremely hard-work-ing members of the Wing Replenishment Squadron, aviators Dawson and Hattie, this event was a resounding success, which pleased the

many generous golfers.Wing Logistics and En-

gineering Commanding Of-ficer Lieutenant Colonel Simon Poudrier started off the day at the fi rst tee, using something a little less con-ventional: his hockey stick! Teams dispersed to their starting hole for a shot gun start and, after a fun-fi lled 18 holes of golf in the beautiful August sunshine, made their way back to the club house for a phenomenal steak din-ner and many prize draws.

During the lead up to this event, in June, WLE branch members also held their third bake auction.

The first tee off of the day was made by branch commanding of f icer Lieutenant-Colonel Si-mon Poudrier, with his #1 Wood. Submitted

From left are Wing Logistics and Engineering Chief Warrant Officer Bill Hinchey, tournament organizers aviators Dawson and Hattie, and branch commanding officer Lieutenant-Colonel Simon Poudrier. Submitted

True to form, members came together with a wide assortment of baked goods to sell and generously gave, under the auctioneering prowess of master warrant officers Darryl Ellis and Kevin Hickey.

In total, $3,500 was raised in support of the IWK Foun-dation, all to the credit of the organizers and generosity of the donors. Thank you again to everyone who supported, volunteered and participated to make this event a great success, and a special thank you to Hattie and Dawson for their outstanding con-tributions.

Grand Prix Wrestling held a round of livebouts at the Annapolis Mess August 13. It was a great night and the wrestlers are begging to come back. Some of the main matches featured former WWE tag team champion Renee Dupree versus Cowboy Kristofferson (son of Kris Kristofferson). Little Fabio went up against Farmer Pete and there was an action-packed match between Spiderman and Buzzsaw Kodama. Of course, Master Corporal Mark Collins made his in-ring debut as a special guest referee. The wrestlers had a great evening and are already planning a return visit, with an even more exciting event highlighting bigger wrestling names. Submitted
