It couldn’t have been scripted
any better. In this naval centen-
nial year, it just so happens
that a defence team
member was hon-
ored with the title
of 2010 Citizen
of the Year at the C-FAX 1070
Community Awards last week.
This award is presented to an
individual who has shown out-
standing citizenship, usually
through many years of contri-
butions to the community. And
this year the Mel Cooper Citizen
of the Year Award went to Dan
Deringer.
“My first impression when I
heard, really, was that they had
the wrong person. There are tons
of people down here who give so
much to the community but you
wouldn’t know that because they
do it so silently,” said Deringer,
who has worked in the Fleet
Maintenance Facility (FMF) for
the past 35 years.
For 15 years of those years,
Deringer has led the United Way
campaigns for DND, and has seen
the amount raised within FMF
increase to a staggering $170,000
a year.
Mel Cooper, an outstanding busi-
ness and community leader, said
he was proud to have his name on
the award that recognizes such a
special citizen.
“Dan’s FMF workmates are
proud of the more than $1 mil-
lion they have donated under his
conscientious, committed leader-
ship,” said Cooper. “Those of us
who have been part of the United
Way’s record-setting years know
DND’s contribution has been piv-
otal to the campaign’s success.”
Deringer has tried to make
many of the fundraising events
fun for his FMF counterparts.

Two Canadian Forces
tug boats wowed a large
crowd as they went bow to
bow with other tugs in the
Seattle Maritime Festival’s
26
th
annual tugboat race.
For the past six years CF
Auxiliary Vessel (CFAV)
Glendyne has been invit-
ed to participate, but this
year, because of a special
request from the Port of
Seattle and the race com-
mittee, her sister ship,
CFAV Glendale also went.
“We’ve never sent two
tugs before, but this year
they requested we put on
a tug demonstration as
well,” said Doug Kimmett,
Auxiliary Fleet Manager
and Glendyne crewmem-
ber.
“So we did a 15 minute,
two-vessel ballet for the
crowd that was a choreo-
graphed routine showing
the maneuverability of
the tugs. Because we’ve
been really busy between
Operation Podium and
getting ready for the
International Fleet Review,
we only had one practice
morning,” said Kimmett.
“But it went so well that at
the awards ceremony the
race committee said it was
the best demonstration of
tug handling that they’d
ever witnessed.”
After the ballet was over
it was time to line up for
the race.
This year more than 40
vessels participated in the
three-heat, mile and a half
race along Seattle’s down-
town piers.
Glendyne and Glendale
raced with nine other Class
B (middle class) vessels.
“There is occasionally the
odd bump but this year
was good. No bumps. We
raced safely,” said Kimmett.
“I was on Glendyne and we
placed fifth with Glendale
right behind us in sixth. It
was Glendyne’s best time
in her six-year history at
the festival.”
But that wasn’t all
Glendyne and her crew
had to show for them-
selves.
One more event pitting
crew against crew was the
emersion suit race. A team
of four was required to
suit up in survival suits,
swim across the pier then
climb into a life raft.
“Ten teams partici-
pated in all. We had a
team of young people
from Glendale and a team
of older fellows from
Glendyne. Experience took
the day as the group of
older crewmembers, led by
Captain Bob Beauregard,
who just had his 60
th

birthday, came in second
overall. They did the race
in one minute, nine sec-
onds,” said Kimmett.
The final crowning glory
for Glendyne came at
the end of the festival.
Everyone in attendance
had an opportunity to
vote for his or her favor-
ite tug and for the fifth
year, Glendyne brought
home the People’s Choice
Award.
The Festival is a week-
long event that draws
upwards of 400,000 peo-
ple to the spectacular
waterfront of downtown
Seattle. Key events include
a chowder cook-off, poetry
competition, and a ‘quick
and dirty’ boatbuild-
ing competition, but the
highlight of the festival is
always the tugboat races.

Flags flew at half-mast
in Formation Halifax and
across Canada in a somber
acknowledgement of the
first Canadian Navy sailor
to fall in Afghanistan.
PO2 Craig Blake, age
37, a clearance diver with
the Fleet Diving Unit
(Atlantic) (FDU(A)), died
after an improvised explo-
sive device (IED) detonat-
ed during a dismounted
operation on May 3, about
25 kilometres south-
west of Kandahar City,
in the Panjwayi District.
The incident occurred at
approximately 4:40 pm
Kandahar time as PO2
Blake and his team were
walking back to camp
after having dismantled
an IED near the village of
Pay-e-Moluk.
PO2 Blake was serving
with Task Force 1-10 and
had been in Afghanistan
for just a few weeks.
According to PO1 Paul
Walsh, PO2 Blake’s com-
rades and friends in the
diving unit will remember
him as a dedicated sailor
and a colleague whose
skills as a diver and as a
leader were exemplary.
“His strong sense of
duty was what took him
to Afghanistan,” said PO1
Walsh, who has deployed
to Afghanistan to dis-
mantle IEDs. “His country
asked him to go. He was
leader of a team, and he
had a sense of duty to that
team.”
A native of Simcoe, ON,
PO2 Blake joined the
navy in his late teens and
had been in the FDU(A))
since 2000. He and his
wife Priscilla have two
sons, seven-year-old Ty
and 14-year-old Cain.
“Craig worked in all
aspects of the diving
branch,” said PO1 Walsh,
adding that PO2 Blake
started out in underwa-
ter engineering and battle
damage repair before mov-
ing into training. “Which is
where I first got to know
Craig well. He was a great
guy. He was quiet but his
actions spoke louder than
his words.”
The two men worked
together training navy div-
ers, combat army divers
and Special Forces divers.
“Craig was directly
responsible for the physi-
cal training and he took
great pride in that.
“Craig was a total pro-
fessional. Craig was the
guy who would sit in the
boat for hours and hours,
dressed in all the heavy
equipment as the leading
seaman standby diver. For
that instant reaction to an
emergency when some-
thing could go terribly
wrong, you could simply
tap Craig on the shoulder
and he would respond.
His job was priority one,
and it was to make sure
other people were safe.”
PO2 Blake was well
known for his dedica-
tion to physical fitness.
He was an enthusiastic
cyclist who biked to work
in any weather. He greatly
admired Lance Armstrong,
seven-time winner of the
Tour de France.
“When the Tour de
France was happening,
Craig was always check-
ing the results whenever
he had a break. He loved
watching that race,” recalls
PO1 Walsh.
In September 2008,
then MS Blake, partici-
pated in the Navy Fitness
Challenge as the cyclist
member of a triathlon
team competing in the
open category. His team,
named Waterwings, won
that category.
“He was really commit-
ted to what he thought
was right and he never
quit….He was tough and
he was determined to see
things through.”
PO2 Blake was also a
hockey fan. “[During the
diving unit’s twice week-
ly hockey games,] Craig
never really wore out the
blades of his skates, he
wore out the ankles. He
loved the sport.”
When PO2 Blake’s
elder son Cain began to
play hockey on a team in
the Shearwater-Shannon
Minor Hockey Association
(SSMHA), the fleet
diver became a popular
and respected volunteer
coach for peewee hockey.
“He coached so he could
be involved in the sport
with his boys,” said PO1
Walsh. “He wanted to
give something back.”
In December 2008,
SSMHA presented PO2
Blake with the peewee
coach of the year award.
The repatriation cer-
emony for PO2 Blake
took place on Thursday
May 6 at 8 Wing Trenton.
More than 30 members
of FDU(A) were pres-
ent, as well as dignitar-
ies including Michaëlle
Jean, Governor General
of Canada; Peter MacKay,
Minister of National
Defence and VAdm Dean
McFadden, Chief of the
Maritime Staff. The repa-
triation was preceded
by a ramp ceremony at
Kandahar Airfield on
Wednesday, attended
by more than 1,500
Canadian and ISAF per-
sonnel.
PO2 Blake was the
143rd CF member to fall
in Afghanistan since the
mission started in 2002.
FDU(A) diver represented the best
PO2 Craig Blake
“
His strong sense
of duty was
what took him to
Afghanistan.

WHO WE ARE
W. Andrew Powell
The GATE
New in theatres this Friday: Russell Crowe
stars in Ridley Scott’s action-adventure, Robin
Hood; Jay Baruchel plays a reincarnated his-
torical icon in The Trotsky; plus a look at the
romantic comedy, Just Wright.
Robin Hood
Since 1908, Robin Hood has been remade
for film and television dozens of times, and has
been played by the likes of Errol Flynn, Kevin
Costner, Sean Connery, and Carey Elwe, to
name just a few. Aside from a number of tele-
vision productions though, it’s been 17 years
since the legendary character has appeared in
cinemas, and that was Mel Brooks’ comedy,
Robin Hood: Men in Tights.
Even after all those years, director Ridley
Scott had his work cut out for him. There
are very few characters as popular, or as well
known as Robin Hood, and for the most part
the stories tend toward a glistening view of the
past. Few have offered much in the way of grit
or realism, mainly because he’s a romanticized
figure, seen more often in tights than in any-
thing practical.
That’s what makes Scott’s adventure look
promising, as the director went for a much
more grounded story with his Robin Hood,
rather than the usual fairytale shortcut.
Russell Crowe stars as our 13th century
hero who was fighting with King Richard
against the French before the monarch died.
Travelling to Nottingham, Robin finds the
town has been taken over by a corrupt sheriff,
played by Matthew Macfadyen, who is living
off the backs of the townspeople thanks to a
terrible tax. Falling in love with the widowed
Lady Marion, played by Cate Blanchett, Robin
Hood takes it upon himself to form a pack of
mercenaries to steal from the rich and give to
the poor villagers in an effort to even out the
trouble the Sheriff has caused.
While Scott’s Robin Hood has been criti-
cized for not understanding what it means to
be “historically accurate,” the film was geared
to make Robin Hood grittier than we’ve seen
him before, and we’ve been told to expect
at least some level of realism for that era in
British history, even if gets quite a few facts
wrong.
This is an action movie though, and based
on the average reviews the film has earned
so far, Robin Hood is not likely to win any
Academy Awards, but it is a solid adventure.
Still, if all you want is to see some action,
people running around castles, and a bit of
sword play, this is the film for you this week.
The Trotsky
Also opening this weekend is writer and
director Jacob Tierney’s The Trotsky, which
premiered at last year’s Toronto International
Film Festival.
Starring Jay Baruchel as Leon Bronstein,
the film is a unique teen comedy about a
Montreal high school student who might
just be the reincarnation of the Soviet and
Red Army hero, Leon Trotsky.
Getting into trouble for planning a hunger
strike at his family’s clothing factory, the
story revolves around Leon’s quest to uplift
the students at his school and fulfil his quest
to help change the world.
Just Wright
In the romantic comedy Just Wright,
rapper Common plays injured NBA all-
star Scott McKnight, who is working with
tough-love therapist Leslie Wright, played
by Queen Latifah, to get back into the game.
When Leslie starts falling for Scott though,
the two will have to see if they can make it
work, while still getting Scott back on the
court.
Receiving fairly dismal reviews, Just
Wright is not at the top of any critic’s list
this weekend, and might be better enjoyed
a bit later on DVD.
Already out in theatres...
Iron Man 2
Summer might still be over a month
away, but the summer blockbuster season
has officially arrived with the release of Jon
Favreau’s popcorn actioner, Iron Man 2.
Dubbed by most entertainment writers
as one of the year’s most hotly anticipated
films, the big budget action sequel stars
Robert Downey Jr. as our mega-billionaire
hero, Tony Stark. During the first film Stark
built a high-tech suit of armour to do a little
good in the world, and by the end of that
film revealed his true identity to the world.
As the second film kicks off, Stark is now
being urged by the military to turn over the
Iron Man technology for the good of the
nation, but Stark is afraid that in the wrong
hands the armour could be a terrible thing,
and refuses to give them any information.
Meanwhile, Stark also finds out that the
technology that is keeping him alive is
also poisoning him, and so he appoints
his former assistant Pepper Potts, played
by Gwyneth Paltrow, as CEO of the com-
pany. At the same time he takes on Natalie
Rushman, played by Scarlett Johansson, as
his new assistant.
He also has to contend with a new villain,
played by Mickey Rourke, who has created
technology of his own to take Iron Man
down.
All of this happens as a whole side-
plot unfolds around Stark’s many powerful
friends, including James Rhodes, who is
played by Don Cheadle in the sequel, and a
new project known as the Avengers.
Looking at the list of stars, and knowing
how much Pararmount and Marvel Studios
want this film to feed into a whole franchise
of super hero films, it’s easy to see how the
whole project could have collapsed under its
own weight. There is simply too much to fit
in, and like many sequels before it, there’s a
motivation to pack it full of characters.
Lead-ins are also a tough thing in mov-
ies. As much as it’s fun to have one film set
up others, it’s quite often just a frustrating
tactic. In the comic books, all you had to do
was wait a month for some more action, but
a comic book movie requires more patience
than most people are willing to trust to
Hollywood, especially when it’s never really
certain who will direct a sequel, or how far
away that next film might be.

FINANCIALADVICE
Nicholas Woloszczuk
Contributor
In recent months, several
Canadian economists have
stressed the importance of
early retirement planning
and the need for Canadians
to save more for their gold-
en years. For many young
families faced with a var-
iety of expenses such as
mortgage payments and
rising childcare costs, the
thought of putting money
aside may make sense but
is perceived to be very dif-
ficult given all their other
financial commitments.
However, many are sur-
prised to discover that
with a proper financial
plan and the help of a
financial planner, they are
able to uncover existing
and/or new funds for short,
medium, and long term
goals including retirement
savings. Understanding the
financial planning process
will help you to see how a
financial plan can improve
your chances of achieving
your life goals.
The first step is engage-
ment with your planner.
Here, your planner will
explain the services he or
she provides, discuss your
expectations and respon-
sibilities as well as his or
hers, and disclose how he
or she is compensated. It is
at this stage where clients
normally decide whether
or not to commit to the
financial planning process.
Next is to establish your
objectives and gather as
much data as possible. It
is important to prioritize
these objectives and pro-
vide your planner with
as much information
as possible. Documents
such as wills and/or pow-
ers of attorney and state-
ments such as mortgages,
Registered Retirement
Savings Plans and pensions
etc. should be provided to
the financial planner for
review. This activity will
help your planner develop
the framework of your
personalized plan.
Information gathered is
then applied to the third
step of understanding your
current financial position
and identifying potential
opportunities and problem
areas. The theme of “more
information is better”
applies. Your planner will
compare your objectives to
your financial information
and develop the strategies
that become the corner-
stone of your plan. Tax
planning opportunities and
risk management strategies
will also be explained and
discussed at this stage.
In some cases, your plan-
ner may need to integrate
his or her advice with
other professionals’ such
as an investment special-
ist, an accountant and/or
a lawyer depending on the
complexity of your situa-
tion. Another way to look
at it is to think of your
planner as your personal
quarterback coordinating
your other professionals
toward the ultimate goal
of winning the game or in
your case, achieving your
goals.
With an understanding
of your objectives and a
clear picture of your cur-
rent and future finances,
your planner will be able
to move to the fourth step
of presenting his or her
recommended strategies
and how they will be exe-
cuted through your plan.
Although you may discov-
er that you have to start
to save for retirement at a
future date, it will lay out
the route to get you saving
earlier than would other-
wise have been possible
had you not developed a
plan.
If you are satisfied with
the recommended strat-
egies, your planner will
move to step five, plan
implementation. It is
important to remember
that the best thought out
plan is only relevant if it is
executed. A common mis-
take is to “shelve” the plan
and get around to it at a
later date. This is not advis-
able as the data that you
provided to your planner
earlier may have changed,
rendering your old plan
inadequate or ill suited
to your current circum-
stances. Plan implementa-
tion includes but is not
limited to the purchase of
insurance and investment
products, the opening of
special accounts such as
a Registered Retirement
Savings Plan or a Tax Free
Savings Account and/or
executing other potential
strategies recommended
to you such as modifying
your spending habits, pay-

Finally, your planner will
monitor and update your
plan, as assumptions made
during plan development
may change over time.
Your role is to keep your
planner up-to-date on
your current and future
situation. If your object-
ives or situation changes,
your planner will need to
modify your plan to reflect
this.
The important thing to
remember is that a financial
plan is not something that
you should consider many
years from now. Rather,
it is something that you
should have at the begin-
ning of your professional
or family life. By taking
the first important step of
speaking to someone about
your financial future, you
will be able to live in the
present with the peace of
mind of knowing that you
and your family are closer
to achieving your lifelong
goals.

In the hallowed hall of the
Senate of Canada, 100 years
to the day it was created
(May 4, 1910), the Navy
presented a ship’s bell to the
people of Canada, rededicat-
ing itself to another century
of service.
“[The Centennial Bell]
stands as a symbol that
honours the past, celebrates
the Royal Canadian Navy’s
achievements and recogniz-
es the navy’s safeguarding
of Canadian values of free-
dom, democracy, respect
for human rights and the
rule of law,” said Minister
of National Defence Peter
MacKay.
During the ceremony,
Prime Minister Stephen
Harper announced that the
Government of Canada is
designating May 4, 2010, as
Canadian Navy Centennial
Day to mark the navy’s
100th anniversary of service.
“In one relatively brief
century, our sailors have
established a mighty trad-
ition of service and heroism,
one that is second to none
in the world among nav-
ies that are often far older,
and in some cases, far larger,”
said Prime Minister Harper.
“And Canadians have come
to understand that our way
of life, our trade, our secur-
ity, our capacity to influence
events elsewhere depends in
significant part upon the men
and women of the Canadian
Navy and the ships in which
they sail. It has for 100 years,
and in the future that is
mine to see, I expect it will
continue to be so.”
The Centennial Bell,
presented by Chief of
the Maritime Staff, Vice-
Admiral Dean McFadden,
was christened with the
waters of Canada’s three
oceans – Atlantic, Pacific
and Arctic – as well as the
Gulf of St. Lawrence, the
Great Lakes, and the Indian
Ocean, representing the
navy’s international theatre
of operations. These waters
were collected throughout
2009 by naval ships and
submarines. The bell, with
its original rope made by
CPO2 David Lowther, and a
book highlighting the history
of the bell and displaying
the variety of artefacts from
which it was made, are to be
kept as a permanent remind-
er that Canada is a maritime
nation dependent upon the
oceans for its national pros-
perity.
“For many mariners, the
ship’s bell came to symbol-
ize life at sea itself,” said
VAdm McFadden. “That is
why even to this day, the
bell is a warship’s most
important artefact, and
why it continues to play an
important role in naval rou-
tine and ceremony, even in
a technically sophisticated
force where operations are
coordinated to the second.”
In a tragic turn of events,
attendees at the ceremony
also mourned the loss of
PO2 Craig Blake, the first
Canadian sailor to die in
Afghanistan. A member of
Fleet Diving Unit (Atlantic),
PO2 Blake was killed May 3
after an improvised explo-
sive device detonated dur-
ing a dismounted operation,
about 25 kilometres south-
west of Kandahar City in the
Panjwayi District.
“The presentation of this
bell to the people of Canada
allows us – the men and
women of today’s navy who
are but custodians of this
great national institution – to
do more than commemor-
ate and reflect on the past,”
VAdm McFadden said. “It
allows us to acknowledge
our covenant with the nation
and dedicate ourselves anew
to the watch, that ceaseless
vigil that keeps Canada safe
from the perils of the world.
It is a vigil that still demands
effort to the last measure,
and sacrifice, even far from
the sea – in the dusty plains
of Afghanistan where we
lost one of our own yester-
day, PO2 Craig Blake.”

MCpl Serge Tremblay, DND
With a quick pull on the bell rope, CPO1 Robert
Cleroux rings for the first time the Naval Centennial
Bell.

When several weapons fitters from
shop 162 returned from their lunch
break Wednesday, May 5, they were
faced with an unexpected surprise.
Lying on the shop floor under a pile
of boxes screaming for help was col-
league Pete Bliewert.
But with nearby cameras posed and
ready, and safety and environment
inspectors clutching clipboards with
pens, something looked suspicious
about the set up.
It was North America Occupational
Safety and Health (NAOSH) week,
and shop 162’s emergency prepared-
ness response skills were about to be
put to the test.
Weapons fitters Ken Worth, Chris
Young and MS Ryan Ward realized
they were being assessed and sprung
into action, utilizing first aid skills they
have learned but don’t use too often.
They lifted the boxes off Bliewert,
pulled the fire alarm to alert the base
fire department and took first aid
measures until the emergency crew
arrived.
All the while cameras snapped and
boxes were checked and comments
taken down by the observers.
“Any exercise we can practice is a
good exercise for the shops,” said safe-
ty and environment inspector Claude
Himbeault who had been planning
this exercise for several months. “The
observers grade the shop personnel on
their knowledge of duties, and how
they control the situation. They must
look after any hazards, ensure first aid
measures are put into place and pull
the fire alarm to alert the emergency
team. The best way to help ensure
people are prepared for an emergency
is to respond to a practicing scenario
first.”
This scenario was unique because
there were two casualties under the
boxes – one conscious and the other
unconscious. “The weapons fitters in
this shop did a good job during this
exercise today,” said Himbeault.
After the emergency crew from the
base fire department arrived and took
over first aid duties, Himbeault let the
exercise carry on for several minutes
before ending it by clapping.
“I never want anyone to feel like
they didn’t do a good job, so I clap for
positive reinforcement,” he says. “After
the exercise I always invite everyone
involved to debrief to discuss what
went well and what needs improve-
ment for the next time. This way we
can learn from what we experienced,”
he said.
First responder Worth said it was a
good exercise. “It caught me a bit off
guard at first,” he admitted. “The major-
ity of us have taken training, so it’s nice
to be put into this situation and have
to remember how to use that training. I
was especially impressed with the fake
wounds that looked very realistic.”
Several times a year these exercis-
es are held to keep shop personnel’s
emergency response skills honed.

ensure people are

We’re so committed to the environment that, at times, we’ve loaded our recyclables
in oversized containers. But we’ve heard that lifting oversized containers has become
an occupational health and safety issue for the people who pick them up.
So now we use only recognized blue boxes and blue bags for our recycling. It’s the
right thing to do for the environment. And for the people who work every day to
make it better.

“Dockyard companies be advised,
first floor is smoke filled. Repeat, first
floor smoke filled.
Possible occupants on floors one and
two. Engine one; take the hydrant and
lay in.”
These were the directions given
by CFB Esquimalt Fire Department’s
Assistant Fire Chief, Randy Morton
as trucks made their way to Building
523, Signal Hill.
That marked the start of last week’s
structural evolution exercise for 10
members of Four Platoon.
“We are going to run this exercise
as close to real time as possible, so our
responding firefighters will not know
exactly what to expect until they
arrive on scene,” explained Morton
at the exercise start. “Incident com-
mand will be set up after completing a
360 degree walk around the structure.
Once the incident commander deter-
mines immediate rescue of occupants
is not required, teams are tasked to
begin the initial attack and search
procedures as required.”
Moments after Four Platoon arrived
on scene, hoses were snaking their
way along the driveway and a 24-foot
ground ladder had been secured
underneath a second-floor window
in order to secure a secondary means
of egress from the second floor. The
yellow-suited attack and search teams
donned their masks in preparation to
enter the building. Their mission for
the exercise seemed simple. Find three
items: a helmet, a dummy/casualty
and a flashlight.
But to lend authenticity and a slight
twist to the exercise, the firefight-
ers searching for those items had to
modify their facemasks in one unique
way. Wax paper was crumpled and fit
inside, severely limiting their visibility
and closely matching the environment
they would find in a real smoke-filled
area, similar to that experienced when
fighting a fire in a compartment on a
ship. Ventilation may be non-existent
and conditions become untenable
very quickly when dealing with vessel
fire conditions. The wax paper prop
helps to sharpen the firefighter’s abil-
ity to advance on a fire or search an
area where they may not be able to
see their hand in front of their face.
The search team, comprised of
firefighters Glen Grass, Jim Hatcher
and Bryce Patey, entered the build-
ing on hands and knees, feeling their
way along walls, past doorways and
under furniture, keeping in constant,
albeit muffled, verbal contact with
one another. Soon after, all rooms in
the building were cleared, the three
target items were recovered and the
men were back outside with the rest
of their platoon.
Then the radio crackled and a
voice asked, “Attack One and Search
One, provide PAR.” PAR represents
“Personnel Accountability Report.”
When one team reported one fire-
fighter unaccounted for phase two of
the exercise was launched.
Echoing off the walls inside the old
brick building was the shrill sound
being emitted from the “man down”
alarm. This personal alert safety sys-
tem, or pass device, is integrated into
the self-contained breathing apparatus
worn by firefighters. It is automatically
activated when the firefighter turns on
the air supply and has a motion sensor
in it so if a firefighter doesn’t move for
30 seconds the alarm activates. It can
also be manually activated if assistance
is needed.
At most fire or emergency situations,
be it a ship’s fire, structural fire, haz-
ardous materials incident or confined
space rescue, a Rapid Intervention
Team (RIT) is set up with the sole pur-
pose of facilitating firefighter rescue.
“They prepare by tracking the fire-
fighters in the hazardous area, essen-
tially functioning similar to the inci-
dent command, if you will,” explained
Morton. “They attempt to gather all
the information on where the firefight-
ers are moving around in the building,
where they are located, as well being
aware of every means of entrance and
egress for the building or vessel so
they can facilitate the safe rescue of
a firefighter if the circumstances are
required.”
The RIT cannot be assigned any
major tasks that will take them away
from those specific duties, so, while
others are laddering the building,

Having fought the battle
herself, Major Deanna (Dee)
Brasseur knows the impor-
tance of acknowledging,
recognizing and diagnosing
post traumatic stress disor-
der (PTSD).
One of Canada’s first
female fighter pilots, Maj
Brasseur retired in 1994
with what she thought was
exhaustion from her job.
“I thought I was tired; had
career burnout,” she said. “I
thought it would get better
if I got out [of the Canadian
Forces], but it didn’t.”
She discovered that it
wasn’t burn out: it was PTSD.
She sought treatment in neu-
ro-linguistic programming
and today is fully recovered
and on a mission to help oth-
ers with the disorder.
When she is not work-
ing as a reservist with the
Air Force, Maj Brasseur is an
active civilian who is busy
public speaking and raising
awareness about the disorder
through the One in a Million
Project.
She wants to bring to light
the fact that PTSD can affect
anyone, and it is important
that it be recognized and
treated.
“It is not simply a military
problem affecting soldiers
who serve on extremely
challenging missions, it’s a
Canadian national mental
health challenge affecting
police, firefighters, emer-
gency responders, health
care professionals as well
as everyday citizens affect-
ed by traumatic events
such fires, floods, car acci-
dents and violent crime. The
Canadian Mental Health
Association estimates one in
10 Canadians suffers from
PTSD.”
The One In A Million
project will give hope and
directly benefit PTSD suf-
fers and families. It has com-
missioned a limited edition
collector coin to raise $35
million, which will gener-
ate annual revenue to be
granted towards research-
ing, educating and treating
PTSD through organiza-
tions such as Soldier On,
Military Families Fund
and the Neuro-Linguistic
Programming Research and
Recognition Project.
One million coins have
been minted and sell for $50
each.
The goal is to lift the veil,
the stigma that has been
placed on PTSD. Because as
Maj Brasseur said, “No one is
immune.”

What happens when
you offer up a challenge
to a group of talented
employees from Canadian
Forces Ammunition Depot
(CFAD) Rocky Point? You
end up with a built-from-
scratch model torpedo
for display at the Calgary
Stampede where an esti-
mated one million people
will attend.
Word spread at the
Ammunition Depot ear-
lier this year that the
Naval Museum of Alberta
in Calgary was looking for
items that would com-
memorate and celebrate the
Naval Centennial. On the
museum’s list was a cut-
away of the MK 46 ASW
Lightweight Torpedo, the
model currently carried on
all major Canadian warships,
and by both the Sea King
helicopter and Aurora Long
Range Patrol aircraft.
Museum staff had
tracked down a company
in Newport, RI, who could
provide exactly what they
were looking for, but the
cost for the full cut-away
would be $75,000.
Paul Shields, Production
Supervisor Torpedo/Missile
Maintenance, saw a string
of email traffic regarding
the search for the cutaway
and decided it would be
an excellent opportunity for
their shop to lend a hand.
“We started looking into
the process and everyone
in the shop took on a part
or a role in the building of
the torpedo, depending on
what their specialty was,”
said Shields.
The cutaway took about
two weeks to complete and,
depending on each team
member’s specialty, the time
each spent working on the
project varied from a few
hours to the full two weeks.
First, the electronics were
completely declassified and
then components to simu-
late the real parts were fabri-
cated and installed, all from
non-repairable or unservice-
able assets, so no actual tor-
pedo was “injured or dam-
aged” to create the display,
according to Shields.
The fuel tank was cut away
to expose the inner work-
ings, then Mark Waddington
and Casey Clinton took
about two weeks to carefully
mill out the shell, and each
exposed component in the
after body (engine/propul-
sion section), which proved
to be the biggest challenge.
Also a hurdle was matching
the cut lines and providing
the best view possible.
Other team members
included Mike Kubisheski,
Jim Carlson, Pat Wade,
Ray Campbell and Neil
Tremblay.
“It was a bit of a head
scratcher when we were
assigned this task,” explains
Clinton. “We had to come
up with a cutaway with as
much detail exposed as we
thought appropriate for the
general public, while keep-
ing the display in compli-
ance with declassification.
We wanted to show the
complexities while keeping
the display robust enough
to withstand shipping and
harsh handling.”
The display torpedo did
survive shipping and now
the Naval Museum of
Alberta volunteers will take
over to construct a base and
Plexiglas cover for display at
the Stampede grounds and
subsequently in the muse-
um, where it will remain on
permanent display.
“The thought of one mil-
lion people attending the
Calgary Stampede where
this will be displayed is fair-
ly impressive,” said Shields.
“The finished product the
guys made was fascinating,
even to people who have
worked with torpedoes for
years.”
Clinton is proud of the
final result as well. “It gave
us a sense of artistic cre-
ativity that we never get
to experience in this atmo-
sphere of formal processes
and procedures,” he said.
“We hope this display will
be an interesting piece of
military history for genera-
tions of people to enjoy.”
From Rocky Point disposal to
Calgary Stampede display

The cut-away of the model MK 46 lightweight torpedo, hand-built by Rocky
Point staff, will be on display at the Calgary Stampede and later in the city’s
Naval Museum of Alberta.

“They spend more time down here then
they do with their families. They do, I
mean we all do. So it’s really an oppor-
tunity for us to be a kid for a little while
and escape the doldrums of day-to-day
work for a bit and if charities benefit in
the end, then it’s a win-win for every-
body,” he said.
Later this month Deringer will retire
from life at FMF, leaving behind some
pretty big shoes to fill when it comes
to fundraising for next year’s GCWCC-
United Way campaign.
He admits, “I haven’t had a lot of success
in finding that one individual person who
has the burning desire to take it all on.
Some individuals have come forward and
said they will carve off a small piece, so
instead of one person doing a large amount
of it, a couple of people will do one part
or another. I’m hoping it’s like the salted
peanut effect though, where someone does
a small part this year but takes on even
more next year.”
Even though Deringer is leaving FMF, he
won’t be leaving the volunteer life behind.
He plans to keep working on the campaign
cabinet for the United Way of Greater
Victoria and with the 2136 Royal Canadian
Army Cadet Corps Scottish Regiment, of
which his son Nathan belongs. He is also
meeting with the David Foster Foundation
later this year and is hoping to do some
work on their behalf.
“I’ve been so darn fortunate to have
had an employer that I’ve enjoyed all
these years with DND. They’ve allowed
not only myself, but a lot of us that work
for the Department, to take part in so
many things,” said Deringer. “The commu-
nity at large doesn’t realize the gem that
they have down here as far as employees
are concerned. Without the employees at
DND, every community across Canada
would be not as well off as they are now
because so many give so much back to
the community and ask nothing, expect
nothing, in return.”

Volume 55 Number 8 | February 22, 2010
Shelley Lipke Staff writer
With an ear-to-ear grin artist Sherry Lynn Ewacha-
Poole stood on the flight deck of HMCS Vancouver in
front of the entire ship’s company last Tuesday to unveil
and dedicate a work of art. Her painting “Vancouver MMX”, or Vancouver 2010
in roman numerals, was painted to honour the ship and
its namesake city of Vancouver in the excitement of the
2010 Winter Olympic Games and the Canadian Naval
Centennial. It is also a heartfelt tribute to the Canadian
Forces from the artist.
