Cold Lake had a monster
of a parade, as the cadets
wore their Halloween
costumes instead of their
usual uniforms. With
nearly two months of
training complete, the
festivities were a chance
for the cadets to enjoy
the camaraderie that
comes with being a part
of the cadet community.
Congratulations go to
M Seywerd and Prentis as
they won prizes for best
costume. A big thank you
goes out to the Parent
Committee for donating
the prizes.

Remember when
veterans were all old
folks?
I’ve known many
veterans of World War
I, World War II and
the Korean War. Even
though I was born a
mere 13 years after the
end of WWII and just
five years after Korea,
I always looked upon
war vets as witnesses
to ancient history.
Of course Canada’s
United
Nations
peacekeeping tradition
has continued through
my lifetime, generating
thousands of veterans.
The Cold War has
its veterans too –
Canadians who were
engaged in the fortyyear standoff between
NATO and the Sovietled Warsaw Pact.
And now, since the
first Persian Gulf War of
the early 1990s through
the former Yugoslavia,
Afghanistan,
Libya
and today’s actions
against ISIL in Iraq,
another generation of
Canadians is involved
in combat duty, and we
have a new generation
of war veterans –
many of them in their
twenties.
Veterans
Week
begins November 4
every year and runs
until
Remembrance
Day.
The
two
commemorations
are linked, but they
are also different in a
profound way.
Remembrance Day
was not instituted to
honour our veterans.
It was created by
veterans to honour
their fallen comrades –
those who never lived
to be veterans.
Let’s stand with
our vets, young and
old, and offer our
gratitude for their
courage and their
sacrifice. And let’s join
them in remembering
their friends who
sacrificed everything.

I’d like to thank
a couple of special
contributors
to
this issue. Cpl Paul
Colterman
has
contributed historical
articles for us over
the past year, and he
graciously volunteered

MFRCS Sends Morale Packages
to Deployed Personnel
Jeff Gaye
4 Wing personnel
deployed to Kuwait will
soon be getting morale
packages
containing
treasures and pleasures
from home.
Volunteers packed up
the boxes last Thursday
at MFRC. Each package
contains donated items
to make the desert camp
seem a little more like
Cold Lake.
“We
asked
the
deployed members what
they’d like,” said Melanie
Bossence of MFRCS.
“They told us they could
use some good coffee
and some beef jerky from
Hamel’s Meats.”
The
deployment
didn’t have any coffee
at first, and now they’re
surviving on instant
coffee, Bossence said.
The local Tim Hortons
stepped
up
with
donations of individual
coffee packets, a large
quantity of bulk coffee
and a coffee-maker.
Hamel’s contributed
the jerky, and Dollar
Store
Plus
donated
seasonal craft materials,
little footballs and other
small items.

send 135 of the box-lunch
sized packages.
“We send them a few
times a year, and always
at Christmastime. Each
package contains some
essentials and some fun
stuff,” Bossence said.
“They serve as a
reminder of home. We
have Christmas cards from
local schools – those are

doing over there and the
impact it makes around

Each package also
contains a small vial of

About 20 volunteers
came out last Thursday
to assemble the packages.
Canada Post is delivering
them free of charge, but a
customs declaration had
to be filled out for each
package.
The morale packages
will arrive in Kuwait well
before Christmas.

The ABCs of UAVs
Captain Jackie
Beaudette,
4 Wing Air Traffic
Control
With technological
advances,
electrical
c o m p o n e n t
miniaturization
and
lower prices, Unmanned
Aerial Vehicles (UAVs)
have become much more
common in Canada.
While
UAVs
are
popular with recreational
users, many commercial
uses are also being
developed. The film
industry has been using
UAVs for years to get
aerial shots, and just last
month there was a crash
in Vancouver during
filming. While no one was
injured, the city placed a
moratorium on UAV use
while Transport Canada
investigated the crash.
Once the investigation
was
complete,
the
moratorium was lifted.
No one was charged.
UAV activity has been
increasing: the number
of UAV permit requests
in BC rose from just six
in 2007 to 178 in 2013.
Another
recent
incident in Vancouver
involved a hobby UAV
with a quad copter and
mounted camera. It was
seen flying close to the
approach corridor used
by airliners flying to and
from the international
airport. Some hobbyists
don’t seem to realize that
these actions are not only
illegal, they put the lives
of hundreds of people
at risk. If a UAV was to
strike the windscreen
of a passenger jet or get
sucked into the engine
the results could be
catastrophic.
What many people
don’t realize is that
airspace is regulated
and the airspace in areas
surrounding
airports
such as 4 Wing and the
Cold Lake Regional
airport is controlled.
This means that no one
should be operating an
aircraft, model aircraft
or UAV close to these
areas without expressed
permission from the
control tower. This helps
to ensure the safety of all.
In Cold Lake, the
4 Wing control tower
operates a circular control
zone with an 11 nautical
mile (20 kilometre) radius
from the surface to 8,000
feet. This area includes
(but is not limited to) the
regional airport, Drake’s
field and a large portion
of the southern half
of the lake. It is illegal
for anyone to operate a
model aircraft or UAV in
this zone without prior
permission from the
base.
The
base
has
agreements with the local
model rocket club and the
radio control flying club
that outline safe locations
and procedures for these
hobbies. We encourage
you to reach out to these
organizations if you wish
to take to the skies with
your hobby aircraft.
According
to
Canadian
Aviation
Regulations (CARs), the
difference between a
model aircraft and a UAV
is weight and purpose of
use. Anything less than
35 kilograms is a model
aircraft, for recreational
purposes only, while
anything over that is a
UAV. CARs state that
while neither a UAV
nor model aircraft is to
be flown in a manner
which may be hazardous

UAV Regulations:
This Just In
Montreal (CNW) - Transport Canada has
just announced two exemptions that simplify
small unmanned air vehicle (UAV) operations
and safely integrate UAVs into Canadian
airspace.
Under the new exemptions, a Special
Flight Operations Certificate will not be
required for UAVs under 2 kilograms and
certain operations involving UAVs under 25
kilograms. The new approach will apply to
commercial operations and contribute to a
strong safety regime for those on the ground
and in the skies.
Once the changes come into effect later
this month, operators must check on Transport
Canada's website if the exemptions apply to
them and respect specific safety conditions,
including requirements to operate within
visual line-of-sight, maximum altitudes and
away from built-up areas and aerodromes.
UAV operators within 4 Wing’s control
zone will still require permission from the
base.
In addition, Transport Canada is
simplifying the application process and
reducing the time it takes to issue Special
Flight Operations Certificates for larger UAV
operators.
In October, transport minister Lisa
Raitt launched the Government of Canada's
national safety awareness campaign for
UAVs, which aims to help Canadians better
understand the risks and responsibilities of
flying UAVs. For more information, please

A Day of Remembrance
Cpl Paul Colterman, WCE
“At the 11th hour of the 11th Day of the 11th
Month”: words that we Canadians all know well from
the time we are children. Where that saying comes from
and the meaning behind it may not be as well known.
The very first Armistice Day was held after an
appeal by King George V himself in November of 1919.
The first Armistice Day was acknowledged by having
all activities halted for two minutes of silence a year
to the day, down to the minute, that the Armistice was
enacted officially ending The Great War (later to be
known as World War I).
Canada adopted Britain’s Armistice Day
Commemoration as held by all Commonwealth
countries. In May 1921 Canada moved our Armistice
Day to the Monday of the week in which November
11th fell, relegating Armistice Day to be held alongside
Thanksgiving festivities.
Fortunately, this did not hold up for very long. On
March 18, 1931, MP A.W. Neil stood in the House of
Commons and introduced a motion to have Armistice
Day moved and observed on “November 11th and on
no other date,” bringing it back to the original time

and date as regarded in the rest of the Commonwealth.
Another MP stood on that day and put forth a motion to
rename the observance “Remembrance Day,” and put
the focus of the commemorations upon the soldiers.
Parliament upheld these resolutions and Canada’s
first “Remembrance Day” was held November 11,
1931.
In other words, they asked a country to stop and
remember its soldiers and their sacrifice, rather than
focus on the politicians and the document they had
signed – a day of honour that is observed to this day by
Canadians from coast to coast to coast, and the world
over.
Upon remembering the sacrifices made by the
untold number of soldiers, a single image stands out
among all others as the representation of our collective
remembrance: the poppy.
Accepted in numerous countries as the symbol
of Remembrance Day, Armistice Day, Poppy Day,
Remembrance Sunday, Veterans Day or Anzac Day, we
can thank a great Canadian, LCol John McRae MD, for
bringing the poppy to our collective memory.
The poem “In Flanders Fields” has become a
cornerstone of our commemoration every year because
of the strong impact the poppy had on LCol McRae,
growing wildly in the Belgian battlefields while he was
composing the poem during a break in the fighting of
the Great War.
LCol McRae stepped away from the war to remember
a lost friend. In Flanders Fields was written in memory
of his friend and the nearly 6,000 Canadians lost during
the Second Battle of Ypres (April 22 through 24, 1915).
Written in just 48 hours in the trenches of Belgium,
an act to remember a lost friend has helped the world
remember and honour all who were lost.
LCol McRae would never dream of the significance
his simple poem would hold to Canada and the rest
of the world, as he did not live to see Armistice Day.
He died of pneumonia January 28, 1918 in Boulogne
France, ten months before the Armistice was signed.
Remembrance Day has become a national
day of honour for all Canadians that made the
ultimate sacrifice from WWI, WWII, Korean War, all
peacekeeping missions and Afghanistan. To date there
have been approximately 1.5 million Canadians wear
the uniform and stand for Canada and its allies.
There have unfortunately been 114,460 Canadians
give their lives while serving our country, and many,
many Canadians that have been wounded.
The number of Canadians killed while serving:
WWI – 66,665
WWII – 46,998
Korean War – 516
Peacekeeping Missions – 121
Afghanistan – 158
And now we have lost two more on Canadian soil,
in addition to the many military personnel killed and
injured during peacetime training accidents.
These are the people we pause to remember.
These are the people to whom a country owes a debt of
gratitude. These are the people who have helped forge
and shape our country.
2014 has been a year of anniversaries, a year of
milestones, a year of heartache, and a year in which we
have changed as Canadians. Without these Canadians
paying the ultimate price, abroad and now at home,
our anniversaries and milestones would not have the
significance and meaning that they do to a nation
formed by courage, resilience and an unshakeable
determination to stand for what is right.
When we as brothers and sisters, friends and
family – as Canadians – gather on Remembrance Day
to honour our fallen, let us come together again and
uphold the virtues of those that have gone before us
as we stand once more, with our people in harm’s way
bearing the flag that unites us all.
Lest We Forget.

New 4 Wing Bandmaster
Takes Up the Baton

my career to work with
people who are happy
playing music,” he said.
“On every engagement,
they’re there because they
want to be, not because
they have to be.”
“I play as a volunteer
in two civilian bands
in Edmonton, so I
understand the spirit of
the players and what their
needs are.”
WO Martin says
recruiting more players
is
among
his
top
priorities,
especially
military members. About
two thirds of the existing
members are civilians,
he said. “That’s great –
we need players, and
everyone’s contribution is
important.” But civilians’
work schedules don’t
often permit them to
perform base parades in
the daytime, he said, so
it’s important to build
up the band’s military
membership.
“We could really use
some more woodwinds
right now, especially
clarinets and saxophones,”
WO Martin said.
He is a highly
accomplished
trumpet
player
himself,
with
experience in everything
from classical music to
jazz and R&B. He also
doubles as a string bass
player, and he’s looking
for
opportunities
to
play and for the band to
contribute to Cold Lake’s
military and community
life.
“This is a great place.
It’s beautiful country, I
just love it,” he said. “For
me it’s like returning to
the scene of the crime –
this is where I started with
military bands. There
has never been a former
volunteer come back to
a band as Bandmaster
before.”
If you have a parade
or mess dinner in your
future, you will be seeing
WO Cam Martin.
WO Martin is the
new 4 Wing Bandmaster,
taking the reins from
newly-promoted
(and
posted) MWO Francois
Metivier. He arrived
in Cold Lake this week,
and he’s eager to get
started.
“I know Cold Lake
very well, and this is
exactly the posting I
wanted,” WO Martin said.
“The 4 Wing Band has
an excellent reputation
among
the
RCAF’s
volunteer bands, so I
know I’ll be working with
a good group.”
WO Martin isn’t
exactly new to the band.
He played with the group
as a volunteer trumpet
player from 1984 - 1988
before
remustering
from Supply Tech to the
Musician trade. Since
then he has been to the
Canadian Forces School
of Music (Borden); the
PPCLI Band (Calgary);
the Malahat Band and the
Naden Band (Esquimalt);
and most recently the
Royal Canadian Artillery
Band in Edmonton.

Grade Nine Students Gain Workplace Experience
Jeff Gaye
Some local students
got a sense of what their
military
parents
do
all day at the twentieth
annual
“Take
Our
Kids to Work Day” last
Wednesday.
The
program,
an initiative of The
Learning
Partnership,
has been giving Grade 9
or equivalent students a
head-start on their future
“by helping them explore
their career options
and connecting them
directly with the world
of work,” The Learning
Partnership’s
website
says.
LCol Joe Mullins,
Acting Wing Commander,
says 4 Wing supports the
program. “It provides a
good opportunity for our
children to see what we
do at work, and possibly
influence their career
choices,” he said.
Maj Reagh Sherwood
of AETE helped set up
a tour of that unit and
417 Sqn for half a dozen
students. He said it
went well from both the
RCAF’s and the students’
point of view.
“They
got
to
experience a lot of
trades and disciplines,”
he said. “The takeaway
for the kids is probably
that they didn’t know
how many people it
takes to make things
happen. They got to see
us working as teams, and
to see people who are
excited about doing their
jobs.”
Falling on the first
Wednesday in November
every year, Take Our
Kids to Work began in
the Greater Toronto Area.
It is now a nationallyrun flagship program
involving more than
250,000 students, 18,000
teachers and 75,000
organizations, spanning
every
province
and
territory.
Roy Ripkens, Acting
Superintendent
of
Northern Lights School
Division, thinks having
students spend a day
on the job is a good
idea. “This is a great
opportunity
for
our
students
to
explore
career options and make
connections
between
what they are learning in
school and their future
career opportunities,” he
said.
“The feedback we
have had from employers
and the parents involved
is always very positive.”

HOROSCOPES
Capricorn - December 22 - January 19
Plan, plan and plan some more. You can’t do enough planning
for an upcoming event. Leave nothing to chance, Capricorn.
Absolutely nothing.
Aquarius - January 20 - February 18
Get ready, Aquarius. You’re about to be plunged into a sticky
situation. Lucky for you, you’ll have the right words when
needed.
Pisces - February 19 - March 20
Frustration reaches an all-time high at the office. It is up to you
to break the tension, Pisces. Try thinking outside of the box. A
message is returned.
Aries - March 21 - April 19
Beggars cannot be choosers, Aries. Accept whatever help is
given and be grateful. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound
of cure at home.
Taurus - April 20 - May 20
Mission accomplished. That will be your motto all week long,
Taurus. No matter what the scope of the challenge, you will
succeed. A friend requests a favor.
Gemini - May 21 - June 21
You’ve never had a problem managing your money. A loved
one, on the other hand, could use your help. Be there for them,
but don’t bail them out, Gemini.
Cancer - June 22 - July 22
Shift gears, Cancer. Your time on top has come to an end, and
a vacation is near. A long-lost friend extends an offer. Watch it.
There are strings attached.
Leo - July 23 - August 22
Leos are lions, as you’ll prove this week when someone
continues to question you. You’ve done your homework. All
bases are covered. Don’t back down.
Virgo - August 23 - September 22
News flash, Virgo. You may be ready, but that doesn’t mean the
rest of your team is. Give them more time to prepare, else all is
sure to fail.
Libra - September 23 - October 22
No need to get all misty-eyed, Libra. The opportunity will arise
once again. A report uncovers a string of errors. Time to rally
the team and get to work.
Scorpio - October 23 - November 21
Rash decisions rarely bring about the results desired, Scorpio.
Take time out to ponder the situation. The end to a nagging
health problem is near.
Sagittarius - November 22 - December 21
Slow and steady wins the race. Take your time, Sagittarius.
A game at home comes to a rousing end. A cooking mishap
receives rave reviews.
