Speaker: 08 November GCC Meeting at the WOS/OM: Speaker: Susan Raby-Dunne: The Real McCrae. An intimate look at the man behind the poem,

In Flanders Fields

Susan Raby-Dunne is a military historian, author, speaker, and WWI and WWII battlefield guide

(Canadian War History Tours) from Longview, Alberta. November 2017 marks the release of two new

books; “Morrison - The Long-Lost Memoir of Canada’s Artillery Commander in the Great War,” and

“Hell burned Through - Dave Mould: The Art and Story of a Lancaster Rear Gunner.” She has also

written two books about John McCrae of In Flanders Fields fame; “Bonfire - The Chestnut

Gentleman,” and “John McCrae - Beyond Flanders Fields.” The latter has been nominated as of 26

October, 2017 for a Golden Oak Award by the Ontario Libraries Association. In 2006 Susan composed

a military, musical version of In Flanders Fields that debuted on CBC and internationally. “I hadn’t

heard one McCrae would like,” she says with a cheeky grin, “so I had to create one that at least had

pipes and a military flavour. Despite being an accomplished physician and pathologist, he was a soldier

through and through.”

Since 2009, she has been the Canadian

representative of American charity

Soldier’s Heart, (www.soldiersheart.net) a

non-profit devoted to helping veterans and

serving soldiers heal from combat trauma.

Among other transformative endeavours,

she has travelled to Vietnam with eight

Vietnam veterans returning to their former

AOs - areas of operation - for healing and

reconciliation.

Susan’s presentation, The Real McCrae

distills about twelve years of research on

this Canadian icon into a vivid

presentation that is both intimate and

surprising. For all the years we’ve worn

the poppy, what do we really know about

the man whose poem sparked the practice?

Driven by a passion for history and

Remembrance, Susan’s writing,

presentations and battlefield tours allow

her to indulge her love of educating people

about our vital Canadian military history

and the sacrifice of our soldiers. Let us be

worthy of them.

GCC President’s Comments

This time of Remembrance is one of the most significant times of the year, especially for those who

have served and their families. There is no time more important than Remembrance Day to emphasize

the connection between the military and civilian communities. The GCC will be participating in the

wreath laying Ceremonies of Remembrance at both the Cenotaph and at Wolseley Barracks.

The Executive has completed a review of our Constitution. Proposed revisions are mainly

housekeeping and to add some language to have the document up to date with current practice. The

Notice of Motions is attached to this Newsletter for your consideration. The revisions will be brought

to the AGM in February for ratification. You can view the Constitution in its current form at

http://www.gcclondon.ca/further-information.htm

The GCC Bursary Committee has reviewed applications and made recommendations which the

Executive has approved. Congratulations to our seven recipients. Presentations will be made

throughout the month. This is some of the most important work done by the GCC and is made possible

by the contribution of all Members through their dues and by generous donations. (Thank you, General

Dynamics Land Systems-Canada ). Thanks also to all of our Unit COs for their support of this

process.

Regards,

Doug Acton

Unit Updates:

31 Canadian Brigade Group

Commander’s Column

An informal view of the Brigade’s activities. Nov 2017

This short article, normally penned by a member of the Brigade staff, will offer a casual

look at 31 CBG. Written with an intent to avoid heavy use of military lexicon, acronyms

and abbreviations, the Commander’s Column supports information sharing to groups with

diverse backgrounds and will, hopefully, offer a less formal view of the Brigade overall, or

the examination of specific issues or events.

C.W. Poole

Colonel

Comd 31 CBG

Remembrance Day and Veterans’ Week

As 31 CBG advances into the new training year, we look forward to the

many roles members of the Brigade will have for Remembrance Day and

Veterans’ Week. In addition to the many community Remembrance Day

services that our soldiers will be engaged in on the 11th

of November, we

expect to fill speaking engagements supporting schools and other

organizations across the Brigade area.

As in recent years, the Canadian Government has established a web page for the 2017 National

Veterans' Week Speakers Program which will collect requests for speakers and forward them to the

most appropriate unit in the Navy, Army, or Air Force.

2017 National Veterans' Week Speakers Program

For organizations who do not require a speaker from the Brigade or another CAF unit, there are

resources available from Veterans Affairs Canada to support Remembrance Day programming.

The FORCE Combat Test

Those members of the GCC who no longer experience combat boots and rucksacks on a regular basis

will be pleased to know that the Army has a new fitness test they won’t be subjected to. Updated in

2017 and now being tackled by those soldiers across the brigade, Regular Force and full-time

Reservists, who must complete it, the new standard is the FORCE Combat Evaluation.

As of 1 October, 2017, FORCE Combat is administered as part of the Individual Battle Task Standards

that soldiers must complete each year. The test consists of the following elements:

A load bearing march of 5 km in Battle Order with C7/C8 rifle, magazines, helmet, frag vest,

ballistic plates, and small pack. Total weight is approximately 35 kg divided between Full

Fighting Order (FFO) (25 Kg) and small pack (10 Kg). The load bearing march will be done in

no more than 60 minutes, but not less than 50 minutes.

A 5 minute break during which time the small pack will be removed.

Completion of the FORCE Evaluation which is completed as a continuous event with no

breaks between individual events while wearing FFO consisting of C7/C8 rifle, magazines,

helmet, frag vest and ballistic plates but without the small pack.

Battle Order will be worn while conducting the 5 km load bearing march and Full Fighting Order

(FFO) will be worn while completing the FORCE circuit. FFO is about 25 kg and consists of the

following equipment:



CADPAT clothing (including boots, pants, shirt)

Helmet

C7 or C8 rifle (including Sling, C79 sight, magazine)

Fragmentation vest (including front and rear ballistic plates)

Tactical load bearing vest (including four full magazines, bayonet, 2 x grenades)

NBCD Mask and Carrier

1.0 litre (full) Canteen/hydration

The FORCE combat circuit is a continuous timed event during which the four (4) component events are

completed without any pause in 15 minutes or less. The order of the events is:

20 metre rushes (two round trip laps, dropping to the prone at the half-way and turn-around

points each lap, total distance 80 metres),

sandbag lift (thirty one-metre high lifts of a 20 Kg sandbag),

intermittent loaded shuttles (five laps of a 20 metre shuttle, carrying a 20 Kg sandbag for one

half of each lap, total

distance 400 metres),

sandbag drag

(one 20 Kg bag to be

carries, attached to

another five 20 Kg

bags to be dragged,

total distance 20

metres).



The rifle is carried during the 20 metre rushes and slung for all other events. The goal is to complete

the FORCE combat circuit. Individual events within the circuit are not timed and there are no breaks

between events.

Busy September for 31 Service Battalion By: Private Kyle Beach and Corporal Matthew Komer, Photos courtesy of Corporal Tony Peachey

Members of 31 Service Battalion, which has support companies based in

Hamilton, London and Windsor, hit the ground running hard in September,

following a successful Brigade-level

exercise in Grayling, MI. Apart from

their usual Thursday night training,

members of the battalion took part in a

skills-maintenance day and a change-

of-command parade on 16 September

and 23 September, respectively.

Members of 31 Service Battalion’s

London Support Company took part in the skills-maintenance

day. Divided into their trade respective sections; Cooks,

Maintenance, Transport and Supply, the members used the day to

hone their trade skills and apply new knowledge that some

members had learned on trades courses they completed in the

summer.

Skills-maintenance training is vital to reservists as several

members are also students or work in occupations civilian-side

that are not the same as their military occupations. This type of

Corporal Mark Furie replaces the

wheels on a cart.



training allows for soldiers to maintain the level of skill that

they are taught on their trade courses, and are expected to be

able to utilize during missions and training both at home and

overseas.

The day was a success for the unit, all members both enjoyed

their training and learned or improved upon their occupation

trade-skills. Some of the day’s training included; practicing

the removal of cryptography from radios, replacing power

steering lines and repairing vehicles, as well as practice towing

trailers with the Medium Support Vehicle System (MSVS).

Two of the day’s highlights were when the Cook Section made

lunch for the troops and when three members of Transport

Section got their T2 trailer qualification, which allows them to

tow trailers like the 1500L water-buffalo and the kitchen-

trailer.

The following

weekend, all support

companies of 31

Service Battalion

came to London to

take part in the

Battalion’s change-

of-command parade. The parade took place to recognize the

career and contributions of retiring Commanding Officer of

31 Service Battalion, Lieutenant Colonel Sean Harding, as

well as to formally welcome in the Battalion’s new

Commanding Officer, Lieutenant Colonel Brian Medd. Over

one hundred people showed up to watch the spectacle, which

takes place in a unit once every three years.

Being the commanding officer of a battalion is the highest

distinction which an officer can have within a unit. On this

day, Lieutenant Colonel Sean Harding got to command his battalion for one last time, marching the

entire battalion on the parade square. After which command of the battalion was handed over to

Lieutenant Colonel Brian Medd in a ceremony overseen by 31 Brigade Commander, Colonel Chris

Poole.

The signing over of command was done on the Battalion’s flag, symbolizing the hand over of the unit

from Lieutenant Colonel Sean Harding to Lieutenant Colonel Brian Medd. It is also a sign of trust that

the unit will be taken care of by the new leader.

After the ceremonial change-of-command took place, the

new Commanding Officer, Lieutenant Colonel Brian Medd

took command of his battalion for the first time, marching

the battalion in its entirety on the parade square. 31

Service Battalion was accompanied by the Windsor

Regiment band, whose musicians provided pipes and

drums for the parade. Highlights of the historic day

include Colonel Chris Poole’s review of the ranks and

Lieutenant Colonel Sean Harding’s farewell address to the

Battalion.

Even with the record-breaking heat that afternoon, the

parade was a joyous occasion. Special thanks go out to all

the distinguished guests and members of the public who

attended the change-of-command parade. All members of

31 Service Battalion enjoyed taking part in the parade and

extend their endless gratitude to Lieutenant Colonel Sean

Harding for his tireless efforts in commanding the Battalion over the last three years. 31 Service

Battalion is looking forward to a productive training year, building off September’s energy. Members

are excited to serve under the leadership of Lieutenant Colonel Brian Medd.
