<strong>The</strong> <strong>Aurora</strong> <strong>Newspaper</strong>, 14 Wing Greenwood, NS Page 3<strong>Oct</strong>ober <strong>25</strong>, <strong>2010</strong>CFAWC Celebrates 5 th AnniversaryBy Colonel Derek Joyce<strong>The</strong> Canadian ForcesAerospace Warfare Centre’s(CFAWC) new building wasdedicated on 17 September<strong>2010</strong> to the memory of AirMarshall Clare Annis. Hisrecognition of the need tostudy, learn and communicatethe lessons of air power tofoster continuous improvementwithin the Air Force helpedsow the seeds for the tardy, butultimately successful, creationof this unit. As we celebrate thefifth anniversary of CFAWC, itis fitting that you as membersof the Canadian Air Forceunderstand how the unit fitsinto the overall Air Forcecontext. <strong>The</strong> intent of thisarticle is to inform Canada’sairmen and airwomen on whatCFAWC has achieved to date,and where it is going in thefuture.Functionally organizedunder 2 Canadian Air Division,the mission of CFAWC isto “ensure the evolution ofCanadian Aerospace Power.”This mission statement mayseem quite daunting, andperhaps a better way toexplain CFAWC’s mandateis to describe it as the Chief ofthe Air Staff’s “Think Tank.”In order to meet this challenge,CFAWC is striving towardssix specific objectives whichare all a part of a holisticcycle of force developmentthat both improves currentAir Force capabilities andbetter positions us for futurechallenges. Our objectivesare to:1. research past, studypresent and analysefuture aerospacechallenges in order toidentify gaps in our AirForce’s capabilities;2. work to develop conceptsthat could address thesecapability gaps;3. where appropriate,experiment with differenttechnologies to closethese capability gaps;4. inform our airmen andwomen about aerospaceoperations today;5. train airmen and womenfor specialized tasks; and6. foster continuousimprovement throughlessons learned to betterprepare our Air Force forthe future.<strong>The</strong> focus areas I describebelow work to accomplishthese six objectives, but itis important to note thatalthough this article focuseson CFAWC activities, the unitis a “light blue” capabilitythat works very closely withnumerous Air and Jointorganizations to achieve ourobjectives for the Air Force.ResearchIn order to prepare the AirForce for the future, we needto study our past challenges,assess our current capabilitiesand look to the future withan eye to predicting potentialcapability gaps in the contextof possible geostrategicshifts and threats. To achievethis, CFAWC has in shortorder developed strong tieswith the Canadian academiccommunity. We host theannual Air Force HistoricalWorkshop to study Canadianaerospace power issues of thepast that remain relevant today,such as aerospace leadership,the role of the Air Force inthe Arctic, and aerospacesupport to Peacekeeping,for example. <strong>The</strong> results ofthese conferences are thenpublished in both officiallanguages, in print and digitalcopies, to educate as broad anaudience as possible. We havealso commissioned severalaerospace power focusedacademic studies in the areasof leadership, commandand control, effects-basedoperations, and Canada’s AirForce in 2035. CFAWC hasalso finalized two new servicelevel agreements (SLA) whichwill increase our capacity toexecute aerospace research.<strong>The</strong> first agreement with theCanadian Forces College,Toronto, will allow studentMaster’s in Defence Studies(MDS) papers to be publishedin a CFAWC-producedcompendium titled <strong>The</strong> WilfCurtis Papers. <strong>The</strong> secondSLA with the Royal MilitaryCollege will allow CFAWC tocontract out research projectsto the College’s scientists andacademic staff.CFAWC also has strongties to our allied Air Forceswith whom we share lessonslearned, best practices andintelligence information. Thissharing is accomplished byCFAWC liaison officers in ourallies’ air warfare centres, andparticipation in future securitythreat conferences.CFAWC also publishes<strong>The</strong> Canadian Air ForceJournal on a quarterly basisto provide a forum for sharingideas on aerospace power.<strong>The</strong> main objectives of theseacademic and inter-air forcecollaborations are to betterunderstand our future securityenvironment, to determinehow Canada’s Air Forceis placed to meet potentialcapability gaps and tostimulate the aerospace powerconversation in Canada.Concept DevelopmentCFAWC has anembryonic—but budding—concept developmentcapability in support of thelarger force developmentprocess. We work closelywith other Canadian Air Forceorganizations to identifysuitable ways to bridge orclose current and future AirForce capability gaps. Forexample, as a result of ourexperiences in Afghanistan,1 Wing has identified a needfor a direct fire weapon for thetactical aviation community.CFAWC is currently workingthe concept developmentprocess to identify potentialdirect fire precision strikeweapon systems that couldbe incorporated on to areconnaissance and/or utilityhelicopter. While this is acurrent example, CFAWC isalso building the capabilityto look to the future with amore strategic view to closingfuture capability gaps.ExperimentationConcepts developed toaddress capability gaps canoffer numerous solutions,from command and controlchanges to organizationalmodifications to equipmentacquisition. CFAWCpossesses a modest capabilityto experiment both in thesimulated environment andin more tangible areas. Forexample, the DistributedMission Simulation Centre(DMOC) at Shirley’s Bay inOttawa is experimenting withtraining aerospace controllersat 22 Wing. Through the use ofscenarios run out of Shirley’sBay, a synthetic environmentconnected to the CanadianAir Defence Sector (CADS)in North Bay, we will soonbe providing high fidelitytraining to AECs and AC Ops.This type of training simplycannot be replicated even byreal-world exercises becauseof the air traffic congestionin certain areas of Canada.<strong>The</strong> intent is to eventuallyconnect the Combined AirOperations Centre (CAOC)in Winnipeg with 22 Wingand the CF18 simulators at 3and 4 Wings to improve thefidelity of the training andexercise the whole system,from command to control tothe aircraft. Our subsequentstep will be to connectthis synthetic environmentwith the other Air Forcecapabilities and the jointenvironment. This is a greatexample of how CFAWC isleveraging new technologyto improve collective trainingopportunities for the AirForce.From a more tangibleperspective, a successfulexperiment was recentlyconducted at the ConnaughtRanges in Ottawa called theDisaster InteroperabilityResponse Experiment (DIRE).This experiment is designedto seek out ways to improvethe situational awarenessfor the commander on theground. In the case of naturaldisasters, the emergencyresponders on the groundAuburn Service CentreOfficial MVI Station~ 847-0826 ~Repairs Done TodayPay Later!We will finance - Call for detailsfrequently find themselveswith no easy means ofcommunications and withouta firm grasp of the situationon the ground. DIRE usedan aerostat (tethered balloon)with a communications relaycapability and sensor package.<strong>The</strong> experiment includedlocal emergency measuresrepresentatives who usedthis capability while playingout several disaster scenariosto improve their situationalawareness. This type oftechnology is certainly notnew, but DIRE leveragescurrently available equipmentto address a unique capabilitygap for the Air Force, the jointCF community and othergovernment departmentscharged with coordinatingemergency response. DIRE isexpected to be further trialledduring Exercise MAPLEGUARDIAN / MAPLEFLAG next spring and duringOp NANOOK in the Arcticnext summer.DoctrineThroughout our history, theAir Force has been particularlygood at developing tacticalleveldoctrine to meet ourimmediate needs in fieldleveloperations. However,what we have lacked for somany years is a more holisticdescription of how the AirForce writ large operateswithin the Canadian context.By ignoring operational andstrategic-level aerospacedoctrine for so many years,we failed to provide the AirForce at all levels with anoverall understanding ofAir Force operations andthe tools necessary to fullyrepresent our interests in thejoint community.CFAWC, in cooperationwith all Air Force and jointcommunities, is well onits way to fully developingoperational and strategiclevelAir Force doctrine. Itis currently providing thebasis for the education of AirForce officers through the AirForce Officer DevelopmentProgramme (AFOD), andthe foundation upon whichAir Force operations areconducted. Once complete,this doctrine will also supportthe substantiation for ourforce development andforce structure processes. AsLGen Bouchard said whenhe was Commander of 1Canadian Air Division duringCF Transformation, “in theabsence of sound doctrine thatyou have developed yourself,someone else will decide howyour forces will be deployedand employed.”<strong>The</strong> capstone doctrinemanual has been published andthe majority of the keystoneand several supportingmanuals will be released in thenext 12 months. Once on thestreet these documents willbe dynamic and continuallyamended as we bring newcapabilities online through theforce development process,and improve the way weoperate via the Air ForceLessons Learned Programme.Education and SpecializedTrainingWhile the responsibilityfor individual trainingwithin the Air Force residesin the Air Force TrainingCentre (AFTC) in Winnipeg,CFAWC supports some nicheeducation and specializedtraining of Air Force officersand NCMs. For example,with the development of theAir Force Command andControl Doctrine, the needto train Air Force personnelon the functions of anair component command(ACC) staff was identified... see CFAWC page 4.Cathy Bruce-West PTS, CPTPersonal Training Specialist236 Gates Mountain Rd,Middleton NS B0S 1P0(902) 8<strong>25</strong>-4544cathy@healthybodies.ca | healthybodies.caPersonal Training Services• Autobody Repairs• Exhaust• Brakes• Gas Tanks• Diagnostics• Welding• General Repairs• UndercoatingSpecial $79.95• Tune UpsCome see us for all yourautomotive needs!

Page 6PARABLE OF THE CORN MAZE by Padre GordonPOLEYHave you ever tried to find your way in a Corn Maze? Deb andI have driven by the Corn Maze on the old highway to Middletondozens of times lately. During thanksgiving weekend, when ourgirls were home from university, Deb suggested that we takethe whole family through the maze. Well, it didn’t sound veryinteresting me, especially since there was a good football game onTV, however, Deb used the “family theme” as a hook to persuademe. After all, two of our four daughters are in wheelchairs and itis hard to find fun things that we can all enjoy together.It is funny how God teaches us as we journey through ordinarylife. That day, the Corn Maze was like a parable, that is, anearthly object lesson with a heavenly meaning. <strong>The</strong> Corn Mazereflects life in general. Life filled with lots of wrong turns. Lifeis frustrating when you go down the same path over and overagain making the same mistake. Often in life we feel simplylost. And finally, life is a challenge and at times it drains yourenergy. (For most the maze was probably not physically taxing,however pushing the wheelchairs on the soft, rain moist groundwas exhausting for the Poleys.)I suppose getting lost in the maze was a little bit of fun.However, the fun would quickly fade into frustration if it wasn’tfor the maze map. <strong>The</strong> people who created the maze had produceda map for each person in order for them to find their way. If itwas not for the map I’d probably still be in the maze right now.Can you see the parallels between a maze and life? Life is alsofilled with lots of wrong turns, dead ends, frustration and periodsof feeling utterly lost. <strong>The</strong> good news is that the Creator of thisworld (terrestrial maze) has also given us a map. 2 Timothy 3:16says “All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach uswhat is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives.It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what isright. <strong>The</strong> psalmist proclaims the practicality and usefulness ofGod’s Word. “Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a lightfor my path” (Psalm 119:105).<strong>The</strong>re is additional good news. Not only did God give us amap (His Word) to help us make sense of life, but also a personalGuide to assure us that we are on the right track and assist uswith the obstacles and challenges on life’s road. Jesus said, “Iam the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have towalk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads tolife” (John 8:12).So here is the question. “When it comes to life, how is yourmap reading?” “Do you know how to use it?” I’m talking aboutGod’s map, His Word.I’m getting ready to deploy this December for eight months.One of the many “checks in the box” that I need is my Navigation& Communications course (Nav/Comms).

Deb et moi sommes passé près du ‘CornMaze’ sur l’ancienne route qui conduit à Middleton des douzainesde fois. Pendant le congé de l’Action de Grâces, avec nos filles encongé de l’université, Deb a suggéré que nous allions en familledans ce labyrinthe de maïs. En fait, cela ne m’intéressait pas plusque cela, surtout qu’il y avait une bonne partie de football à latélé, cependant Deb insista sur la fibre ‘familiale’ de manière àme persuader. Après tout, deux de nos quatre filles sont en chaisesroulantes et il est difficile de trouver une activité que l’on peutapprécier tous ensemble.Il est amusant de voir comment Dieu nous enseigne à traversnotre vie quotidienne. Ce jour-là, le labyrinthe de maïs a étécomme une parabole, qui, à travers une réalité terrestre contenaitun enseignement céleste. Le labyrinthe de maïs représente notrevie. La vie est remplie d’épis robustes. La vie est frustrantelorsqu’on marche encore et encore sur les mêmes sentiers enfaisant les mêmes erreurs. Souvent dans la vie on se sent toutsimplement perdus. Puis, finalement, la vie devient un défi quidraine notre énergie. (Pour la plupart des gens le champ n’estprobablement pas exigeant physiquement, mais pousser deschaises roulantes sur le sol mou et humide fut très demandantpour les Poley.)Je suppose que d’être perdu dans le labyrinthe de maïs futun peu amusant. Cependant, le plaisir se serait vite changé enSubmitted by: Kim Dixon,GMFRC Coordinatorof Child and YouthServices at 765-1494local 1812<strong>The</strong> GMFRC offers EmergencyChildcare Services thatwill assist families during anemergency childcare situation.Our goal is to provide<strong>The</strong> <strong>Aurora</strong> <strong>Newspaper</strong>, 14 Wing Greenwood, NSfrustration n’eût été de la carte du labyrinthe. Les personnes quil’ont créé ont produit une carte pour que chacun puisse retrouverson chemin. Sans la carte, je serais probablement encore dansle labyrinthe.Pouvez-vous voir le parallèle entre le labyrinthe et la vie?La vie est aussi remplie de mauvais tournants, de chemins sansissues, de frustrations et de temps ou l’on se sent perdu. La bonnenouvelle est que le créateur de ce monde (le labyrinthe terrestre)nous a aussi donné une carte. 2 Timothée 3,16 dit « Toute Écritureest inspirée de Dieu et utile pour enseigner, pour reprendre, pourremettre les choses en ordre, pour discipliner dans la justice ».Le psalmiste proclame l’aspect pratique et utile de la Parole deDieu. « Ta parole est une lampe qui guide mes pas et une lumièresur ma route » (Ps 199 :105).Il y a une autre bonne nouvelle. Non seulement, Dieu nousdonne une carte (sa Parole) pour nous aider à donner un sens àla vie, mais aussi un guide personnel pour nous assurer que noussommes sur la bonne voie et pour nous aider devant les obstacleset les défis sur la route de la vie. Jésus a dit : « Je suis la lumièredu monde. Celui qui marche derrière moi, ne marchera pas dansles ténèbres, mais possèdera la lumière de la vie » (Jn 8, 12).Alors voici la question : « Lorsqu’il est question de la vie, ou enêtes-vous avec votre lecture de cartes? » « Savez-vous commentl’utiliser? » Je parle de la carte de Dieu, sa Parole.Je me prépare à être déployé en décembre pour huit mois. Undes nombreux « checks in the box » dont j’ai besoin est le coursde navigation et de communications (Nav/Comms). Chaqueannée il faut refaire l’état de vérification opérationnel. De lamême manière, nous devrions être à jour et compétent pourutiliser le Manuel offert par Dieu afin de ne pas se perdre dansle labyrinthe de la vie.Les chapelles Queen of Heaven et St-Marc sont d’excellentslieux pour que le personnel de la 14 e Escadre puisse se familiariseravec notre Guide Spirituel et sa Carte des Routes de la vie.
