Rated as one of the premiere events conducted within Land Force Atlantic Area, the Camp Aldershot Open House will be held for the fourth consecutive year. With displays from the Army, Air Force and Navy, the event has proven to be very popular, with annual attendance steadily growing. Our record so far is over 2,000 people from as far away as Moncton and Cape Breton.

New this year will be the Leopard 2, Canada’s newest Armoured Fighting Vehicle, along with

the latest truck to be issued, the Medium Support Vehicle System (MSVS), an 8 ton militarized commercial truck which is replacing the current 2 ½ ton “Deuce and a half”. Back for the fi rst time since 2007 will be a Cormorant Helicopter from 14 Wing Greenwood.

As always, there will be many different vehicles on display, the Field Kitchen Trailer will be serving hot dogs, the kids will be going through the Kiddie Commando Course and using the Small Arms Trainer, and there will be several different displays and demonstrations, including

fi re fi ghting and an Army Section attack. Juno the Bear will be there to entertain young and old alike, and, of course, there will be plenty of mementos to take home. At the same time, Magic 949 will be supporting our celebration by broadcasting live and there will be opportunities to meet Radio Personality Hunter Brule.

The Camp Aldershot Open House will be held on Saturday, 7 August from 10:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Admission is free.

By Mary LeeAsk any Canadian who the

fi rst Canadian aviator to break the sound barrier was and few would know.

Other Canadian aviation greats such as J.A.D McCurdy, Billy Bishop or Len Birchall are better known than Al Lilly. Nevertheless, he was one of this nation’s most distinguished test pilots and Canada’s fi rst pilot to break the sound barrier.

It happened at RCAF Station Dorval in August 1950 in a Canadair Sabre 1 prototype. At the time Al Lilly was the Canadair chief test pilot, responsible for fl ight testing more than 100 models of aircraft in an era when Canada was a world leader in cutting-edge aviation technology.

HIghlighting its aviation supe r-e l i t e j u s t wasn ’ t the Canadian way, and Al didn’t make an issue of his achievements. Not until his picture appeared in newsprint because of his astonishing feat did his two daughters, Joan and Pat, begin to understand how skilled their father truly was as an aviator.

Later media confused Al’s accomplishment with that of Janusz Zurakowski, a Polish native who moved to Canada in 1952 to join Avro Aircraft Limited in Toronto as chief development pilot . That year, Mr. Zurakowski flew supersonic in the Canadair CF-

100 fi ghter, the fi rst straight-winged jet aircraft to achieve this feat. At the time of his death in 1989, the press hailed Mr. Zurakowski as Canada’s fi rst pilot to break the sound barrier – a factual error that has since been corrected.

Al would have been 100 this year. On May 26, in a ceremony at the RCMP hangar at Uplands airport in Ottawa, Vintage Wings of Canada and the RCMP paid tribute to Al by dedicating the “Hawk One” F-86 Sabre in his name.

Colonel ( re t ’d) Chr is Hadf ie ld , a former Air Force pilot , a Canadian Space Agency astronaut and now Hawk One pilot, and RCMP Superintendant Greg Peters, Director of Strategic Partnerships Heritage Branch, made the dedication in the presence of Al’s family at the private ceremony.

Al joins the MountiesAl was born in Moose Jaw,

Sask., a son of Harold Lilly who owned an automotive a n d f a r m e q u i p m e n t dealership specializing in Ford automobiles. Through his father’s business, Al came in contact with the RCMP who used the dealership to service their vehicles. Eventually, Al enrolled in the Mounties in 1932.

In 1937, he requested permission to take flying lessons and petitioned to join the RCMP Aviation Section the

following year. Thus his career began fl ying bush planes. He was also a strong advocate for advancing aviation in policing, having seen the fi rst-hand the limitations of dog-sled teams and canoeing, and recognizing that float and ski equipped planes could better serve the North.

Although his brief career with the RCMP led to greater aviation accomplishments, is best remembered by the Mounties for encouraging dog services in policing.

Al’s dog, Prince, joined him on a search for a missing trapper and, in the course of the rescue effort, Prince found shelter from bad weather for both Al and the trapper. Al instinctively knew there was value in dog skills and shared

Corporal Craig Kennedy of the RCMP; Assistant Commissioner Bernard F. Corrigan, commanding offi cer of RCMP national headquarters in Ottawa; Michael Potter, founder of Vintage Wings; Patricia Hassel, daughter of Al Lilly; Chris Hadfi eld; and Sergeant-Major Raymond Huet of the RCMP.

A man, a dog and a plane; the life and times of Alexander John Lilly

this insight with the RCMP.By 1935, the police dog-

handl ing serv ices were offi cially formed and Al was one of the fi rst to be assigned his own dog, a German shepherd named Black Lux. The two formed a close relationship; Al often brought Black Lux along with him during fl ying lessons and in the back-seat of his car while courting Genevieve, who later became his wife.

The RCMP transferred him to Ottawa, which would bring an end to his fl ying time. But Al had a dream of fl ying and he realized he had to leave the RCMP. In July 1939 he purchased his discharge and went to Great Britain to fl y with Imperial Airways (the precursor of British Overseas

Airways Corporation).The RCAF yearsWhen the Second World

War broke out, Al returned to Canada and joined the Royal Canadian Air Force, teaching new pilots in the British Commonwealth Air Training Program (BCATP). He then flew with Ferry Command, transporting equipment and many types of planes across the Atlantic. He also received a commendation from King George VI for delivering the fi rst six Hudson twin-engine bombers to Britain. By the end of the war, Al was chief test pilot for the command.

CanadairFollowing the war, Al joined

Canadair and was instrumental in positioning the aircraft manufacturer as one of the

largest producers of aircraft in the world – a distinction that brought recognition to Canada during the Cold War era. There he captained the inaugural fl ight of the North Star aircraft and the F-86 Sabre, to name a few. And in 1950, he broke the sound barrier for the fi rst time in Canada.

During his 30 years with Canadair, he rose to the position of vice president before retiring in 1970. He passed away Nov, 21, 2008 at the age of 98 – just months before witnessing the Vintage Wings’ “Hawk One” F-86 Sabre take to the skies as a cornerstone of the 2009 Canadian Centennial of Flight celebrations.

Being a modes t man, Al rarely talked about his supersonic experience, the war years, or saving up all his hard-earned money during the Depression for fl ying lessons. “He had a quiet confi dence,” explains Lee Parsons, nephew and also an avid aviator. He daughter Pat Hassel, who travelled from California to take part in the dedication, said that Al would share his tales about his career only when pressed, and only then did friends and family learn just how proud and enthusiastic he was about fl ying and about Canada’s aviation leadership.

His legacyAl Lilly is a holds a special

place among this nation’s av ia t ion l eaders ; he i s a member of the Order of Canada and Canada’s Aviation Hall of Fame.

“Al realized how wings could take Canadians far and wide in the accomplishments of many feats,” said fellow Avia t ion Ha l l o f Fame inductee, Col Hadfi eld, during the dedication of Hawk One in Al’s memory.

“Al Lilly laid the foundation f o r m a n y m o r e g r e a t accomplishments with fl ight. I’ll be touching Al’s name as I climb into the cockpit of Hawk One.”

It’s posting season once again, and for Canadian Forces (CF) families moving with children, changing schools can bring many uncertainties.

Will the new school teach in the children’s fi rst language? Will the children be behind in their new classes and need tutoring? Will special education classes be available? Will high school students

meet all the requirements for college or university?

Dependent Educat ion Management (DEM) can help families fi nd the answers. DEM manages the education, compensation and benefits programs for CF personnel’s dependent children.

“Overall, I think the vast majority of families handle the transition extremely well,” says Don Ferguson, Director of DEM. “We are here to answer questions and provide assistance to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible. “We’re always looking out for military children, to make sure they don’t slip through

Changing Schools? Dependent Education Management can Help

the cracks.”DEM provides information

and assistance on changing schools within Canada and abroad. From moving tips

and general advice to detailed checklists of necessary school documents, DEM strives to help parents stay on top of the education transition process.

For families moving out of country, DEM performs a mandatory screening process as well as further information on international schools. For families moving within Canada, DEM can help families apply for education allowances and benefi ts, give comprehensive information on schools in every province and territory, and provide screening information for

special education options in isolated and semi-isolated postings.

With the right information and preparation, Mr. Ferguson says families rarely encounter unsolvable problems. Though the first big move can be especial ly s t ressful for families, once over that initial hurdle it gets easier. Time and time again, Mr. Ferguson sees what a positive experience moving can be for families with children. He firmly believes that challenging

children by placing them in unfamiliar situations leads to great personal growth.

“It’s important that families celebrate the positive. Change brings new experiences, new learning and new challenges to master,” he says. “Schools play an important role in helping students, especially new students, build resilience.

C’est encore une fois la saison des affectations, et pour les familles des militaires canadiens qui ont des enfants, les transitions scolaires peuvent générer de nombreuses incertitudes. L’enseignement se fera-t-il dans la première langue de l’enfant? L’enfant accusera-t-il un retard scolaire par rapport à ses nouveaux camarades de classe et aura-t-il besoin de tutorat?

La nouvelle école offrira-t-elle des classes adaptées? Les enfants qui fréquentent l’école secondaire seront-ils en mesure de répondre à tous les critères d’admission aux études postsecondaires?

Heureusement pour les familles des membres des Forces Canadiennes (FC), Éducation des personnes à charge – Gestion [EPC(G)] peut les aider à trouver des réponses à leurs questions. EPC(G) gère les programmes d’éducation, d’indemnisation et de prestations pour les enfants à charge des membres du personnel des FC.

« Dans l’ensemble, je crois que la grande majorité des familles

vivent extrêmement bien la transition, souligne Don Ferguson, le directeur d’EPC(G). Nous sommes là pour répondre aux questions et fournir de l’aide afi n de faire en sorte que la transition soit la plus harmonieuse possible. Nous pensons toujours aux enfants des militaires pour nous assurer qu’ils ne tombent pas entre les mailles du fi let. »

EPC(G) contient une mine d’information pour faciliter le changement d’école au Canada et à l’étranger. Depuis les conseils pratiques et généraux sur le déménagement jusqu’aux listes de contrôle détaillées des documents scolaires

nécessaires, EPC(G) s’efforce d’aider les parents à maîtriser le processus de transition scolaire.

En plus du processus de présélection obligatoire auquel se livre EPC(G) pour les familles qui déménagent à l’extérieur du pays, EPC(G) fournit d’autres renseignements sur les écoles internationales. Pour les familles qui déménagent au Canada, le site présente le processus à suivre afi n de recevoir des indemnités d’études et des prestations, fournit de l’information exhaustive et des liens vers les écoles dans chaque province et territoire, ainsi que de l’information permettant de choisir les options pour

l’enseignement spécialisé dans les postes isolés et semi-isolés.

Monsieur Ferguson affi rme que les familles bien informées et bien préparées se heurtent rarement à des problèmes insolubles. Si le premier gros déménagement peut être particulièrement stressant pour les familles, la situation va en s’améliorant par la suite. Monsieur Ferguson constate très souvent à quel point un déménagement peut être une expérience positive pour les familles qui ont des enfants. Il croit fermement que le fait de mettre les enfants au défi en les plaçant dans des situations peu familières leur offre de formidables possibilités de croissance

personnelle.« Il est important que

les familles s’attachent aux côtés positifs. Les changements permettent de vivre de nouvelles expériences, de faire de nouveaux apprentissages et de relever de nouveaux défi s, conclut Monsieur Ferguson. Les écoles peuvent jouer un rôle crucial en aidant les enfants, et surtout les nouveaux élèves, à développer leur résilience.

This past April, I Carl Brown, husband of CF member Sgt Wendy O’Quinn, competed in the Nova Scotia Body Building competition held at the Rebecca Cohn, Halifax, NS. This success was contributed to great support from local businesses within the community. I would like to take the time to acknowledge the kind generosity and support from local business in the town of Greenwood and Kingston. I would like to personally thank Bonnie from Marks Barber Shop, Rami from Shoppers Drug Mart, Don from Hot Pause, John from King of Donair and Gerry from AVR radio station. I would also like to thank the staff and friends from the Greenwood Fitness and Sports Centre for their endless encouragement throughout the preparation for the show. In closing, this would not have been possible if it wasn’t for the support of my wife Wendy and my children.

Our little campers have had another fun week of summer camp at the GMFRC. The children enjoyed activities such as making pet rocks, a teddy bear picnic, crazy hair day and so much more! Our camp program provides young children with the opportunity to interact and socialize with children their own age. Miss Vanessa, our

Summer Camp Leader, has an exciting summer camp program planned. Stay tuned next week as our campers tackle a jungle safari and pyjama day. Thanks to our dedicated youth volunteer Sarah who has been assisting with our camp program this week. If you would like more information on programs for your child to participate in this summer call Kim Dixon at the GMFRC at local 1812.

North Mountain Gun Club Cowboy Action Shoot

amount of people came for a fun day of shooting. A lot of people came dressed up as cowboys. The targets were made by Ward Thompson. We shot at targets ranged from 25 yards to 100 yards. The

shooters shot three types of guns: pistols, shotguns, and rifles. The winners were: Scott Russell (1st); Paul McNeal (2nd), and Ward Thompson (3rd). All in all I think everyone had a great day; I know I did!

Week two of the 14 Wing Day Camps have just fi nished and it was loads of fun with so many different pirate activities! Monday we went digging for some buried worms with our delicious “dirt” cups (pudding cups)! Tuesday was a hit with our Peter Pan movie and popcorn! Even though Wednesday was a rainy day, we still managed to make our very own pirate hats, eye patches and bookmarks to take home. Thursday we played a homemade game of pirate bingo and we then made a parrot to hangout on our shoulders! We fi nished the week up with an exciting trip to Pirates Cove in Halifax where we tried out all their wild slides; luckily no one had to walk to plank! -Tasha Roland

LCol Flynn, presents MCpl Nyenhuis is presented with 14 AMS Excellence Award for his for his outstanding knowledge and noteworthy analytical abilities. MCpl Nyenhuis was instrumental in the rectifi cation of two complex snags in the past month that had perplexed other seasoned technicians. He expertly utilized his vast experience to “think outside the box” to come up with a viable solution that proved successful on the fl ap adjustment on aircraft CP140104 and the generator snag on aircraft CP140120. His methodical approach and fault isolation techniques were paramount in ensuring 14 AMS had serviceable aircraft for the daily fl ypro. MCpl Nyenhuis is an extraordinarily capable technician whose technical skills are unparalleled and is most deserving of the 14 AMS Excellence Award.

Call for Deployment Planning Group Members

Due to the upcoming p o s t i n g s e a s o n t h e Deployment Planning Group is seeking individuals to help plan activities and

special events for deployed families. We all experience family separations whether it is due to a deployment, IR posting, or career course, to name a few. We are looking for ideas for activities and events that will help our families feel supported and connected to each other. May be you have been posted in from another Wing or Base and you participated in an activity there that you would like to see here. Have you been through a deployment recently? Was there an event or activity you really enjoyed or you think another family would like to participate in. This is your opportunity to help develop activities for you and other military families in our community to enjoy.

Is your military member away?

If you have a military family member who is away (spouse, son, daughter, partner, grandchild, etc) on operational duty - including deployments, courses, TD, & so on - & you haven’t heard from the GMFRC, please give us a call & we’ll set you up with any of our programs/services/activities that may interest you. We do not know you’re out there unless you let us know.

A l l o f o u r o n g o i n g activities are open to ALL families experiencing a family separation due to operational requirements. We offer pre, during, & post deployment information, assistance, outreach, & support to anyone who chooses to participate. Just give us a call!

If you already have been on an exercise regimen, you may want to step it up a little.TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Taurus, strange things fall into your lap when you least expect it. You can’t help but wonder where they have come from. Don’t question your good fortune.GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, there’s not much you can do to change someone’s mind. Instead of arguing, try seeing things from the other’s perspective. Opportunity for romance arrives later this week. CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, success can be diffi cult when you don’t have a goal or plan in mind. Start mapping out a course of action and enjoy the road to success.

We would like to thank the lifeguards at the pool for their support every afternoon during swimming and the bus driver for taking us on our trip to Halifax.

To help raise funds for the Terry Fox Head Shave, a large community fundraising event has been planned for Sunday 15 August 10. This event will be a Carnival on the Wing inside the 14 Wing Arena from 1:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. This event is made possible by the generous support of Bounce Kingdom Party Rentals who will be turning the arena fl oor into a magical carnival for all the children in our 14 Wing community.

We will open the doors at 1pm and the admission fee will be $5 per child, and FREE for parents or guardians and children until 2 years of age. During the four hour event, we will be selling popcorn, cotton candy, shaved ice, etc but we ask that you bring a water bottle since you will not be able to use the fountain inside of the arena.

The Terry Fox Head Shave campaign is well underway with 50/50 tickets being sold at the

Annapolis Mess during selected T.G.I.F, and Mr. Wayne Snider, of Greenwood, was the lucky winner of over $100 on 9 July 10. There has already been one BBQ at Sobeys and the second will take place on Saturday 14 August 10 from 11:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. We would like to thank Sobeys for their partnership and support.

Lastly, there will also be a Wing Wide Boot Drive on Friday 13 August 10 from 7:00 a.m. until 9:00 a.m. at all entrances. Terry Fox volunteers will be collecting funds for our Head Shave campaign and greatly appreciate the support from the Wing and community.

Please check next week’s Aurora for more information about this exciting Carnival on the Wing event. If you are interested in volunteering, then please call Eric MacKenzie at 765-1494 ext. 5337.
