Every fall, federal government employees and military members across Canada take on a fundraising event called the Government of Canada Workplace Charitable Campaign. It is managed by United Way on behalf of the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat. The co-chairs for this year’s campaign are Major Catherine Marchetti and Major Bill Snyder. “Through this initiative, all of us here at CFB Trenton can support United Way, health partners or any other registered Canadian charity,” said Maj Snyder. “It is a good opportunity to share what we have with others in a fun and exciting way.” “We are the third most important contributor for the United Way of Quinte,” said Maj Marchetti. “In fact, last year we were able to bring in over $145,000 through onetime donations and pay deduction contributions.” Cont’d on page 13 Firefit and ready!

Firefit competition ‘the toughest two minutes in sport’ By Ross Lees Six 8 Wing firefighters are training to compete in what is often called “the toughest two minutes in sport.” Corporal Jacques Caron will compete in the Scott Firefit National Championship in Medicine Hat, Alberta on the national team. His 8 Wing firefighting teammates Fire Chief Capt Pierre Muscat-Drago, Cpl Dane Duhaney, Pte Steve Pereira, Pte Matt Guillet and Pte Martin Strerenczak will compete on the 8 Wing team against firefighters from across the country Sept. 14-18. Few people realize just how tough this competition is, at least until they hear it called “the toughest two minutes in sport.” The event is designed to imitate real life situations firefighters might encounter while responding to an emergency. They run up six flights of stairs to start the competition, they do a hose hoist, a forcible entry component with a sledge hammer, they do a 140 foot run, drag Cont’d on page 9 Advertising 2 - The Contact August 26, 2011 MIX&MATCH SALE IS ON NOW! 498 QUEEN SET $ 00 Twin $369.22 • Full $445.19 • King $718.75 This sale is SO BIG we couldn’t fit everything into this ad!

Over the past seven weeks, more than 1,500 cadets have come and gone from the base and there is little evidence of their presence left - with the exception of the white barrack buildings at the corner of Old Highway 2 and RCAF Road. Almost two thirds of the cadets who trained here were on a general training course designed to give cadets an introduction to life at a cadet training centre, as well as a crash course on what the future holds for them as a cadet. Other cadets took courses that introduced them to the world of aviation, possibly setting them on a path towards becoming a glider or power pilot. Some cadets chose the ceremonial route and took the intermediate military band course, and for those who have a love for the parade square, they took the leadership and ceremonial instructors course. Whatever their course, there are a few things certain for all involved…the cadets who visited Trenton this summer left as swiftly as they came. They left a little bit wiser, with a few more friends to add on Facebook, and memories that will last them a lifetime. As with the end of every cadet training season, now that the cadets are gone, we start planning for next year because next summer will roll around far faster than you could ever imagine for the cadets and staff.

BELLEVILLE ON K8N 4Z5 T: (613) 967-1481 • F: (613) 967-0541 SPECIALIZING IN VW AUDI AND EURO IMPORT SALES AND SERVICE By Megan Potter - Regional Adaptive Fitness Specialist My name is Megan Potter and I’m the Regional Adapted Fitness Specialist (RAFS) for Joint Personnel Support Unit ( JPSU) Eastern Ontario Region. I work for the Personnel Support Programs (PSP) team in conjunction with the recently formed Joint Personnel Support Unit ( JPSU). My position was created in the fall of 2009 when I began work within the JPSU Regional elements. Prior to this, I spent time as an athletic therapist with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats – a CFL team. The RAFS is the newest fitness position to be created and added to the PSP team. It was developed as a part of the Soldier On program, which encourages ill and injured CF personnel to attain and maintain a healthy and active lifestyle. It supports the ill and injured personnel by increasing their independence, in developing new skills and in achieving goals through specialised, tailor-made fitness programs and sport. I was first introduced to the world of PSP when I went overseas in November 2008 until May 2009 to work in the Canadian gym in Kandahar, Afghanistan. I came to the position in Kandahar with a background in kinesiology and athletic therapy, which allowed me to assist in the physiotherapy department with in-care patient rehabilitation of ANA, ANP and local nationals who had been injured. That was my first experience with aiding injured soldiers. Aiding them in the first steps of rehabilitation was an incredible experience - not only life changing - but heart changing. In the months which followed, I became aware of a position that was being created as a part of the Soldier On program oriented towards meeting the fitness and sports needs of ill and injured soldiers, whether they were injured overseas, in training exercises, at work or off duty. From what I learned and experienced working in the hospital in Kandahar, this was the job for me. After a long awaited application process and interview, I was hired and moved to CFB Petawawa. I have been here now for one year and, as with any brand new position, there was a lot of stumbling around in the beginning, figuring out where and how I - as a RAFS - fit into the organization and how to best serve the soldiers’ needs. As a RAFS, I work in conjunction with the Physical Exercise Specialist (PES) at each base within our Region (comprised of Petawawa, Ottawa, Kingston, Trenton and North Bay). As a team, we guide members in their fitness goals and working towards meeting and exceeding the requirements of the CF EXPRES test, the BFT and any other personal goals the member wants to achieve. While the PES works with those members who have sustained mild to moderate injuries, I myself work with those members who have sustained serious injuries such as amputations, spinal cord injury, etc. One of our goals is to return the injured person to the unit either fit for BFT/Express, or with an individually designed program to get them there. Another responsibility as a RAFS is working hand-in-hand with the Soldier On program to get our ill and injured members back into sports and getting them involved in local, national and international sporting events. This past February, a group of 19 injured soldiers and family members travelled out to Vancouver where they met up with their sister program from the UK (Battle Back) and a similar program from the US (Challenged Athletes Fund). They participated in a number of events during the Paralympics, such as curling, seated and stand up skiing, and sledge ERIC SCHNAITHMANN WWW.COMPETITIONMOTORS.CA Megan Potter is pictured working with a patient. hockey. In May of this year, there was a group of injured soldiers, their family members, prosthetists, physiotherapists and RAFS who came from all across Canada to attend a mini triathlontraining camp at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio, Texas. This event was hosted by the Centre for the Intrepid, one of the three major rehabilitation centres in the United States for injured soldiers. The first day consisted of workshops instructing amputee running, swimming and biking, as well as lectures given on mental preparedness and nutrition. All was geared towards preparing the soldiers for the triathlon the following day and towards developing skills that could be applied to future events. Most recently, there was an Army run clinic hosted in Ottawa, five days prior to the 2010 Army Run. A group of 13 injured members from across Canada were in attendance, along with family members, RAFS, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, national running coaches and Olympic runners. The intense clinic was two days long, allowing for a day of rest before race day. The clinic had a number of focuses, including looking at running gait and squat technique of each individual, a circuit with core, agility and balance stations, and baseline testing to see how each individual had progressed over the duration of the clinic. All members participated and had fantastic results on race day. On the other side of our program, the bulk of our members are not seriously injured, but have sustained significant injuries interfering with their activities of daily living. With the help of our PESs, we have seen our members pass their EXPRES test, increase the number of days and hours at work, meet their personal goals whether that be to lose weight, quit smoking or eating healthier and having a healthier lifestyle. As our program continues to evolve, our goal is to enable all injured members to participate at the same level of sport or higher at which they were involved prior to their injury. We also seek to get the community more engaged, whether that be through fundraisers for Soldier On and/or Wounded Warriors, or hosting various Soldier On events. This program is in its early stages, yet it is exciting to see how far we’ve come in such a short period of time. More significantly, it is amazing to see how far our members have progressed.

The AMO course is currently comprised of three core competencies; rock climbing, military installations, and alpine movement. This year, 408 Squadron (Sqn) teamed up with the course for the alpine phase to insert and extract the candidates and staff into some of Canada’s most challenging glaciated terrain around Pemberton, BC. A tactical helicopter crew consisting of pilots Major Drew Gagne and Capt Simon Latullippe, and FE Cpl Mike Bisson, met with the senior course staff and CFLAWC Mountain Operations experts to complete the air and ground reconnaissance of the mountain ranges surrounding Pemberton in May. The military crew was augmented by a member of the Association of Canadian Mountain Guides (ACMG) and three-time Everest guide, John Furneaux, who provided the local expertise on the area. The crew from 408 Sqn conducted a full air reconnaissance of the Joffre-Matier Group and the Place Glacier, enabling AMO photographer Sgt Jeremy Blair to get all the air photos required for the student briefings and alpine objectives. Following the air reconnaissance, the pilots landed in the Mount Olds Col, at 8,000 feet, to insert a ground reconnaissance team. The team consisted of AMOs Capt Jamie Galt, Capt Chelsea Braybrook, Sgt Dan MacIntyre, Sgt Jeremy Blair, and guide John Furneaux. Using trial alpine touring equipment, provided by Department of Land Requirements (DLR), and backcountry avalanche safety equipment, the AMOs conducted the ground reconnaissance on skis, which clearly established the feasibility of this type of insertion via tactical helicopter. After a day of superb flying conditions, the AMOs were able to establish the feasibility of the area surrounding the Place Glacier and associated routes for military training. This training opportunity, in Canada’s backyard, was the product of successful interoperability, exceptional air crew skills from 408 Sqn, the forward thinking of DLR, the work completed on the military ski program through Austrian Military exchanges, and the Canadian Winter Mobility Training packages that are on-going. Advances in the Canadian Forces Mountain- eering program have been instrumental in ensuring that our specialists are ready to operate safely in any threat environment, with a focus on training in some of the world’s most renowned mountainous terrain, the Canadian Coastal Mountain Range.

Pepper Award, which will be presented annually to the top cadet on the Leadership and Ceremonial Instructor Course. In addition to receiving the honour of being the top cadet on his course, Cdt Jenkins was awarded the Army, Navy, and Air Force Veterans (ANAVETS) medal. This coveted medal is awarded on the basis of overall achievement on the course, leadership qualities, instructional abilities, dress and deportment, motivation and cooperation with others. In addition to receiving the medal, he will also be eligible to apply for a $1,000 bursary for medal recipients who continue on to post-secondary education. Cadet Jenkins is one of 115 cadets from across the province that completed the sixweek advanced course on Aug. 19. Focusing on the areas of followership, teamwork and leadership among other things, the Leadership and Ceremonial Instructor Course builds on this foundation by teaching cadets advanced principles of instruction and developing the specialist level skill set required to become an instructor for drill and ceremonial activities. The course also prepares cadets to assume the role of a senior cadet Non-Commissioned Officer (NCO), return to Summer Training Centres as staff cadets and instruct at their home units.

From a downed aircraft to someone short of breath, the firefighters are the Wing’s first response to any emergency situation. The 72 firefighters of 85 Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting Flight (85 ARFF Flt) report through the Wing Construction Engineering Officer and are housed in the 50-year old Wing Fire Hall (WFH). They are divided into four crews, who are the front line response traditionally associated with firefighting, and the day workers who primarily work in the Fire Inspections Cell. All Canadian Forces firefighters are trained at the Fire and Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) Academy in CFB Borden in crash (aircraft) rescue, structural fire fighting, HazMat and CBRN response, and difficult rescues including motor vehicle accidents among other more specialized training. Once back at their units, they continuously practice their ‘firemanship’ skills in order to be prepared for any emergency. It is not uncommon for the firefighters to be called out to the airfield to stand-by during routine matters that contain an element of risk, cautious of the fact that routine could very quickly become a life threatening incident, such as during engagements of the aircraft arrestor system, hot brakes or engine run-ups. Crews are also constantly maintaining fire protection systems around the base to ensure they are fully functional if a fire were to occur. This work allows them to become familiar with all of the buildings at the Wing – a familiarity that becomes essential in the event of an emergency. The inspection cell’s role is primarily fire prevention. The Chief Fire Inspector and his team review building designs to ensure that all of 8 Wing’s buildings, both new and old, meet standards outlined in the National Fire Code. This is a constant process as it includes ongoing inspections of buildings to ensure the safety of the occupant. This cell has been providing an outstanding service to the Wing, as demonstrated by the lack of working fires throughout the Wing’s infrastructure and in the PMQs.

One education tool is the fire drill. Fire drills help alleviate chaos and confusion during an actual fire by giving people an opportunity to practise an activity that, when carried out in real life, could involve smoke, heat and general panic. Fire Prevention Week involves a number of activities, but is certainly a good opportunity for members of the Wing to take part in a fire drill. 85 ARFF Flt is involved in many deployments, both domestic and abroad. Firefighters have a strong presence in Canada’s Forward Observation Locations (FOLs). They are there not only to ensure that the fire systems are operational, but also provide crash protection for aircraft in these austere locations. Overseas, they are assigned roles such as the Task Force Fire Marshall, or Camp Fire Chief (CFC). In such situations, they are frequently faced with the task of providing fire protection at locations lacking equipment, supplies and trained personnel. The CFC communicates directly with the camp commander on fire related matters. Using their training and experience, they develop and recommend fire safety guidelines and directives for the commander in order to ensure fire safety for all those on the camp. After Haiti’s earthquake in February 2010, fire- fighters were ordered to assist with the rescue efforts by the Chief of Defence Staff. Within 36 hours of the earthquake, a team of nine 8 Wing firefighters were on their way to aid with the rescue efforts, efforts that included finding and removing victims from collapsed buildings. Although at the time their formal training on collapsed structures was very limited, they were still able to make a significant impact, earning two of our firefighters the Meritorious Service Medal. Since that earthquake, discussions on how best to provide Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) have occurred. Currently, the Disaster Assistance Response Team (DART) has been identified as requiring this capability, and the Air Force has been assigned the role of generating two small teams of Light USAR. 8 Wing’s firefighters, as well as those from 19 Wing, have been tasked to fulfill this new mandate. As with all of their other tasks, the professionals of 85 ARFF Flt are committed to ensuring they are ready to respond when called upon. 8 Wing firefighters work around the clock to ensure that the airfield has full crash protection and that all those who work and live on the Wing have a timely and professional emergency response if the need should ever arise.

DeerhaveN 12 - The Contact Advertising August 26, 2011 News August 26, 2011 Cont’d from page 1 Safety: Back to the basics Safety can be a complicated business, when you consider the rules and regulations for dealing with hazards involving chemicals, gases and fast-moving machinery. But in many situations, safe behaviour is simply responsible behaviour. In fact, there is a striking resemblance between the rules we learned in childhood for being responsible around home or school, and the guidelines for safe behaviour at work. As children, we learned that we were supposed to clean up any messes we made, and we were not to touch dangerous items without permission and supervision. These and other simple guidelines are also important for working safely as adults. Here are some tips for working safely. They will probably sound pretty familiar; we have been told these things for years: • • • • • • • The Contact - 13 If you make a mess, clean it up. Many accidents are caused by spills and clutter on the floor. Accumulated debris has provided fuel for many workplace fires. A spill of coffee may seem insignificant, but it can contribute to a serious slip and fall by a co-worker. Report any hazards to your supervisor. This can include unsafe working conditions and unsafe procedures. If you move it, put it back. Keeping things where they belong reduces clutter in the work area, and also reduces the chance of accidents. If you open it, then close it. Fire doors are a good example of something you should always close behind you. If you turn it on, you should turn it off. Don’t assume that someone else will do so. In fact, don’t assume anything. If you unlock it, lock it again. Security is everyone’s responsibility. If you use it, take good care of it. This includes your Personal Protective Equipment such as hard hats, safety-toed footwear and ear plugs. • • • • • • Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for maintenance. If you break it, repair it if authorized and qualified to do so. Do not leave it for someone else to find. Damaged tools and equipment cause many injuries. If you are not able or authorized to fix it, report the problem so that it will be taken care of. Damaged tools and equipment should be removed from service. They should be tagged and turned in for repair or replacement. If it belongs to someone else and you want to use it, ask for permission. You might obtain some valuable information about how to use a tool or piece of equipment if you talk to the operator. If you borrow it, return it to the owner. Time wasted looking for missing safety equipment and tools could be better spent on other tasks. If a co-worker cannot find the gear which you borrowed, he may be tempted to improvise unsafely. If you aren’t authorized to operate it, keep your hands off. Forklifts are an example of a machine which has injured many unauthorized, untrained operators. If it doesn’t concern you, don’t meddle with it. Just think of the consequences of interfering with someone else’s lockout-tagout arrangement, or meddling with someone’s fall arrest protection. Over the past several months, Maj. Snyder and Maj. Marchetti have been working with a team of dedicated volunteers to organize an exciting selection of events. The campaign begins with a tee-off at the Wing Commander’s Golf Tournament on Sept. 8. In addition to the traditional pizza/ pasta lunches, dress down Fridays, slow pitch ball and four-on-four hockey tournaments, jail and bail, Mega 50/50 and more; new events this year include a motorcycle ride to the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa on Sept. 14 and Mock Tower Jumps in October. The campaign will culminate on Dec 1 with a pizzapasta lunch get-together and raffle draws. “With all of these exciting activities and your generosity, we are confident of another tremendously successful campaign,” said Maj. Snyder. “We encourage everyone to get involved in the campaign and contribute in any way possible to this worthy cause. It is only with your continued support that the United Way can maintain the excellent work they do in our communities,” Maj. Marchetti added.

The average person experiences one anger related incident each day and will become annoyed at least 20 times each week. Some anger generating situations are unavoidable. When this is the case, an escape strategy such as a Time Out is one option to reduce the tension. A Time Out is taken when you need to take time to step back from a stressful situation, to think about what you want to say and do next. Time Out gives you an opportunity to collect your thoughts and plan ahead, to use coping thoughts and to return to the situation in a calmer manner. A Time Out can be as short as five minutes, and as long as you need. The key is to know when you need to take a Time Out. Awareness of the need for a Time Out will make a tremendous difference in how you respond to stressful situations. Time Out Tips: Time Outs can be used spontaneously; for example, by excusing oneself to go to the washroom during a heated meeting at work. Time Out can be a planned strategy; for example, between spouses who have a prior agreement to respectfully disengage if a disagreement about a sensitive subject begins to escalate into an argument. During a Time Out, if possible, do some physical activity like walking or working out to relieve tension in the body. It is very important to return to the situation to address it, as soon as possible. However, if the situation is particularly intense, it may be useful to schedule a later time to return to the problem. Time Out gives you the opportunity to relax, problem solve and implement coping thoughts. You may believe that backing away will label you “weak,” making you feel like you are giving in, but is this what is really happening? Often, it is the strongest thing you can do. Anybody can stay angry and act out their anger, it takes a much stronger person to back away and think about what is happening.

Ladies Flyers soccer team wins silver at regionals By Anthony Marsh The inexperienced 8 Wing/CFB Trenton Flyers ladies soccer team accomplished something recently no other team from CFB Trenton has been able to do; they recently won a silver medal at the 2011 regional soccer championships in Petawawa. This was the first time a team from 8 Wing had ever competed in the regional soccer championships and what makes their achievement even more remarkable is that they had never actually played a competitive soccer game together until the first day of this tournament. After losing their first two games against Kingston and Petawawa, the ladies achieved their first victory against a strong Borden team. This victory enabled the ladies to advance to the semifinal round where they came up against Kingston again. After 90 minutes of play, the game was tied at one, so an additional 10 minutes of overtime was played with neither team breaking the deadlock. A tense and dramatic penalty shoot-out followed where the Flyers ladies held their nerve to score a thoroughly deserved victory. After four games in four days, a very tired Flyers team took to the field on the fifth day to face a strong Petawawa team in the final game of the tournament. The Petawawa team had advanced to the final with a bye from the semifinals and, therefore, had not played a game the previous day. This, along with the fact that the Petawawa team was very experienced and contained six national team players, resulted in a defeat for the Flyers. Despite the defeat in the final, the Flyers ladies gave a 100 per cent effort and left the field with their heads held high and a smile on their faces. The silver medals each of the ladies received was a reward for their tremendous commitment, positive attitude and fantastic team spirit.
