For the fi rst time, 14 Wing Greenwood hoisted the Mi’kmaq Grand Council fl ag at the entrance to the base, marking the start of Aboriginal Awareness Week May 23 to 26.
At the May 24 event, Corporal Tim Wall and Master Seaman Scott Carson led a traditional smudge cer-emony, wafting the smoke from smouldering sage over both participants and the fl ag with an eagle feather.
“The smoke goes in your eyes so you can see better, your mind so you are always thinking good thoughts, your hearts to make sure you’re always loving and caring, and the rest of your body so you’re physically okay,” said Wall. “It’s a cleansing ceremony.”
The red and white fl ag, with its distinctive striped cross and star and moon symbols, represents the Mi’kma’ki people from traditional lands in the Atlantic Provinces, Eastern Quebec and the Eastern United States: the white, purity; the red cross, the four direc-tions; the star and the moon, the spirits of day and night.
With an offering of tobacco for the Creator, and the grandmothers and grandfathers of the past, placed at the base of the fl agpole, the fl ag raising represents the growing recognition by the Canadian Armed Forces of the contributions of Aboriginal members within its ranks.
“I would highly recommend people here this morn-ing get out and talk with their units and fi nd out about the Aboriginal cultures of the people in your units,” said Lieutenant-Colonel Marie-Claude Osmond, acting wing commander. “There is good information in the

Canadian Armed Forces now, and fl ying this fl ag at 14 Wing supports and recognizes our people.”
Lieutenant-Colonel Sean Duggan is the 14 Wing employment equity champion for Aboriginals. Just the week before, a group of 20 potential Aboriginal CAF recruits toured the wing to fi nd out about opportunities within the military. He acknowledged the wing’s physi-cal presence on the traditional land of the Wabanaki and Mi’kma’ki, and thanked everyone for attending the fl ag raising.
“Indigenous people have a rich history within the Canadian Armed Forces and, by coming together to celebrate events like this, we demonstrate we value that culture and diversity.”

As many are aware, the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) Long Range Patrol (LRP) Force is involved in missions over the Joint Op-erations Area in support of Operation Impact, Canada’s mission against Da’esh, with the ultimate objective of returning control over their country to the citizens of Iraq and Syria.
Many RCAF assets have been involved; however, it is the CP140 Aurora which has been operating continuously since the operation com-menced. That is quite the feat, but what makes Cana-da’s LRP force contribution even more notable is, to ex-ecute this obligation, both air
and ground crew have had to complete multiple rotations in theatre.
During Second World War, air forces kept track of the number of missions flown by each crewmember and, depending on the theatre, after reaching that number, the aircrew would be rotated home. Some volunteered to return; others were “volun-told” to extend, with the end result being some aircrew fl ew more than the minimum number of missions. Those who completed 100 missions over hostile territory were in-ducted into a Centurion Club.
During Op Impact Roto 3, the fi rst aircrew member fl ew his 100th mission April 21, 2017, and this event was commemorated with the pre-sentation of a Centurion Club
certificate. This certificate was based on those created during the Second World War, and modifi ed to refl ect the realities of Op Impact.
The LRP Detachment Commander at the time commented at the time the RCAF needs a way to record the fact members are now completing 100 missions in theatre, and have that com-memoration displayed in an
area for future LRP aircrew to view. That set in motion a six-month effort.
A plaque was made by an LRP Standards and Evalua-tion Team (LRPSET) Tactical Navigator (TacNav), who donated his time and the material, and the name plates and header plate were spon-sored and paid for by the Greenwood Wing of VPI - as will future Centurion Club
inductees’ name plates.During an April 2017 tail
swap, the Roto 3 LRP De-tachment Commander, along with the Roto 3 operations offi cer; presented the com-pleted plaque to the Roto 5 LRP detachment command-er. The plaque will hang in the LRP Detachment Head-quarters at Camp Canada, and will return and hang in VPI Greenwood when this
operation ends.It is hoped this new tra-
dition extends beyond Op Impact. Whenever the LRP force is involved in an en-during operation, whomever completes the 100 mission in theatre milestone will be able to proudly display a certifi -cate of accomplishment and see their names recorded as stalwart members of the LRP Centurion Club.
The new Long Range Patrol Centurion Club plaque is shared amongst past and current Operation Impact Roto detachment commanders, marking Royal Canadian Air Force crew who have completed 100 missions in theatre. Submitted

The Canadian Forces Health Services Group (CF H Svcs Grp) is dedicated to providing quality and safe medical and dental services to the hard-working men and women of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). To ensure high standards are maintained, the CF H Svcs Grp has engaged Accreditation Canada to review processes and practices.
Accreditation Canada is glob-ally known for the rigorous process they complete with any healthcare facility, be it a hospi-tal or a community-based clinic such as 26 Canadian Forces Health Services Centre (CF H Svcs C) or 1 Dental Detachment (Dent Det) Greenwood. Ac-creditation Canada and the CF H Svcs Grp are working together to help maintain and improve the level of care with regards

From big mechanical equip-ment to a couple days in the bush with compass and map, 14 Wing Greenwood’s Recov-ery and Salvage team covered a range of specialty skills May 9 to 12.
Exercise Knife Finder con-tinued to build the RAS team’s ability to prepare and retrieve aircraft – in whole or part – from varied terrain. Team members take on the responsibility as a secondary duty, and come from a wide range of backgrounds to ensure aircraft recovery is safe, prevents further damage and supports any fl ight safety investigations.
In-class presentations and hands-on exercises make up RAS trainings, led by Captain Calvin Bull, the wing’s RAS officer. This spring training included decontamination re-views, including setting up tents and clear zones; working with cranes and lift equipment, and
Accreditation way to ensure quality careto quality, safety and effi ciency; so patients will receive the best possible care and service, both throughout the CAF and their military career.
From April 25 to 27, an ac-
creditation survey was com-pleted at the clinic. All aspects of medical and dental services, care and required organizational practices were reviewed. The commanding offi cer of 26 CF H
Svcs C, Major Ricard, and the offi cer in command of 1 Dent Det Greenwood, Major Fernandes; along with all of the medical and dental staff, would like to thank all of the members of 14 Wing
Greenwood and the surrounding community for their support and
participation through the recent accreditation.
Recovery, salvage response ‘has to be ready’time “in the fi eld” at the Gran-ville Range, for navigation work.
“The team enjoys it – RAS is one of the best secondary du-ties, with a couple of exercises and lots of equipment to work with.”
While Bull says fl ight safety initiatives are day-to-day prac-tice for wing personnel, RAS work is a little lower profile: until there is a need.
“Planes could crash any-where. We have to be ready to work when everything’s safe. Our job is to take whatever we can, and bring it back to the wing.”
Bull has been focusing over the winter on wing-level RAS policies and practices to ensure 14 Wing is meeting common Royal Canadian Air Force RAS response standards. Compiling the documents is a “work in progress,” along with holding a couple exercises a year that depend on resources and the availability of his team mem-bers.
“We have to be confi dent.”May 9, Recovery and Salvage team members had the opportunity to work with a crane, checking their com-munications and hand signals in ways that mimic recovery of airplane components. S. Keddy

A recent CBC news article put a spotlight on how many home routers are left with gaping holes in their security. The most common problem? People leaving default pass-words or keeping the pass-word an ISP (Internet Service
Provider) has set.Often times, these ISP’s
will just a generic password like “month then year” at ev-ery house they set up. Then, any tech called out for repairs or who needs to get into the router will also know the password. Your password.
The other piece of this puzzle is the wireless SSID (Service Set Identifier), or name of your wireless net-work. These are often left as
generic names, and many include your civic address.
The best thing you can do to help keep your network safe is to change both of these. Pick a nice, strong password with eight char-acters, and use upper and lower case letters along with a number. Change your SSID (something like “Pretty fl y for a WIFI” will give everyone a good chuckle). You may even choose to hide or not broad-
cast your SSID; if someone wants to connect to it, they will need to know its name beforehand.
For those who are a little more tech savvy, make an ac-cess list for your wireless net-work. You can make it so only MAC (Media Access Control) addresses on that list can connect to your network. A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is also a great way to protect yourself while on the internet,

Ready to green your com-mute to 14 Wing Greenwood? Why not get rewarded for it?
To raise awareness of alter-native transportation options, during Environment Week 2017, enter Wing Environ-ment’s prize draw each time you use non-motorized trans-portation to come to work June 4 through 10.
Here are the facts: commut-ing by car is one of the largest single source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, the leading cause of climate change and air pollution. These pollutants are a source of further problems for people with respiratory ailments. Reducing the use of motor vehicles for transportation also reduces the need for new roadways and parking lots.
According to the CAA, the average cost to own and oper-ate a vehicle can range from $8,500 to $11,500 - or higher - each year, based on a typi-
cal 18,000 kilometres driven. Compare this to the cost of a bus pass ($90 per month on Kings Transit) or, better yet, save all your money and use your bike to get around! There are even bigger fi nan-cial benefi ts related to health care costs and reducing the need for your community to continue expanding roads.
More people are increas-ingly sedentary: recent stud-ies fi nd less than half of Ca-nadians get enough physical activity. Using active and sustainable transportation – like walking, cycling and riding the bus – allows people to incorporate at least some physical activity into their everyday commute. It’s also a great stress reliever!
Fill out a ballot and drop it in the Returned Ballot box at either the wing’s main gate or RHU gate as you pass through, or register with your participation with your name,

Lieutenant-Colonel Marie-Claude Osmond, the acting wing commander May 24, helped 14 Wing Greenwood get set for Environment Week activities. Painting a yellow fish beside the base’s storm sewers continues an international project to remind people waste entering them goes directly to the nearest waterway. The proj-ect is a visible way to mark the wing’s efforts to protect Zeke’s Brook and local turtles and other wildlife in its operations. With Osmond are, from left, kneeling, Wing Environment Officer Steve Sauveur and Captain Hassan Choudhary, Real Property; and standing from left, Chief Warrant Officer Brad Sommerfeld, acting wing chief warrant officer; Wing Construction Engineering Chief Warrant Officer John Martin and Acting Wing Logistics Engineering Officer Major Todd Batt. The Wing Environment team are taking the Yellow Fish Project into the Community Recreation after school program, and working with youth participants to continue stenciling the base’s drains. S. Keddy

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20Prove yourself with actions instead of words, Aries. Your productivity will not speak for itself, so you may need to do some self-promotion to get the word out.TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Taurus, your words will carry a lot of weight when you speak about a topic that is dear to your heart. Others might be inspired by your message, and you can recruit helpers.GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Do not get caught up in gossip and hearsay, Gemini. That can compromise your credibility at work and among friends. Stay focused on your responsibilities.CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22While you shouldn’t compare yourself to others too often, once in a while it can illustrate just how far you have come. Why not compare against the person you once were?LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, you know what needs to get done. Now it is just a matter of finding the time to accomplish everything. Simplify things by writing all of your tasks down.VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22You may have to explain your point of view over and over again before others see your way of thinking, Virgo. Don’t let this discourage you this week.
LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Libra, once you are knee-deep in a project, you may not need to take frequent breaks. You’re ready to plow through to the fi nish line and reap the rewards of hard work.SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Scorpio, no matter which words come out of your mouth, others are compelled to listen when you speak. Recognize the impact your words can have on others.SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21Explaining a proposal may require some creative thinking, Sagittarius. Make a list of all the talking points and then narrow down your options this week.CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Capricorn, you tend to hold yourself to a very high standard because you always want to do your best the fi rst time out of the gate. Others appreciate your dedication.AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, sometimes it seems as if you have a sixth sense, especially where finding good deals are concerned. You’re happy to be the shopper of the family.PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Pisces, extreme focus on a subject can be a help or a hindrance. Remember to remain fl exible in the next few days.

Untrashing AylesfordAylesford & District Lions were out in full force May 24 as part of their commitment to the “Adopt a Highway Program.” They met at the hall for Shepherd’s pie, rolls, bumble berry pie and ice cream – and were then fully fueled to work. Twelve volunteers cleaned ditches from the New Road in Aylesford to the Highway 201 entrance, across from the Greenacres Subdivision. There were a lot of car parts, chip bags, coffee cups and paper as you can imagine, but there were also a 26-inch TV and a $10 bill found. This all added up to approxi-mately 250 pounds of garbage collected along a 4.2 kilometre distance. Lions on the job included Deborah, Terry, Jan, Fred and his wife, Gail: Brian, Wayne, Peggy, Joy, Danny, Klaus and David. Submitted

Gardeners are asked to use sustainable gardening practices, with no pesticides or herbicides; this is also a great chance to try alternative gardening techniques - just for fun!
There is always the op-portunity to help out, and the harvest from the church garden plot will be donated as the season grows to the Upper Room Food Bank in Kings-ton and supply the church’s regular community soup lun-cheons.
The garden space is wheel-chair accessible, there is a tribute to Indigenous Peoples and visitors are always wel-come. For more information on the gardens, contact John Morash, 902-321-1182; or visit the Facebook group “Out-reach Community Gardens.”
