588 Canadair History
There was a man named Eric Edward Simms, a Canadair employee, who had a dream of forming a squadron of young men who would be trained in the art of good citizenship through the medium of the Air Cadet League of Canada. He discussed his idea with the Canadair authorities for approval. Finally in 1955 the Canadair Squadrons were formed. Many people who have given their time and talents have helped make, over the past 37 years, the outstanding reputation that 588 Squadron enjoys across Canada.

Ever since November, I've seen a great change in our Squadron. We started the year with a positive outlook on the months to come, and we continued with it throughout the year. You've worked hard to perfect your drill as individuals and as a 'team. I have seen you develop as cadets to become what you are today. We had a great year, and i t is because of you, the cadets, that it's been so great. Remember and live by our motto, TO LEARN - TO SERVE - TO ADVANCE, and remember all that has been taught to you. Congratulations on a successful year. SEE YOU NEXT YEAR l WOl C. Adams Squadron Commander 588 Canadair Squadron

SABRE FLIGHT This year I have seen Sabre Flight as a team striving to accomplish t h e i r goals. All t h e hard work and practice has paid off when we see how wel l we can perform now compared with the beginning of t he year. Watching a flight gradually progress over the months is something every flight commander finds very rewarding. In all my years working with all the flights, I find this year is definitely one to be proud of for Sabre. All of us have put in the amount of effort necessary to achieve this high standard of drill, deportment, and morale. I would like to thank the NCO's for how well they carried out their tasks. I am sure all the meetings a nd discussions we had will help you for the future with your new responsibi l ities. Remember: a team is only as good as the discipline of its members. Keep up the excellent work and keep this in mind: You can either let things happen, or you can make things happen.

BROOMBALL COMPETITION On the date of January 18th, 1992, 588 participated in the annual Broomball competition hosted be 686 squadron. On this very cold Saturday morning a team of 12 cadets were present and spectators were assembled at the ice rink to witness the team in action. The team played four games in all against numbers 1 and 867 squadrons. Everyone played well and the games were long and cold. Our team finished with one win, two ties, and one loss. Despite all the difficult conditions, 588 still did well in the tournament and everyone had fun. All the team spirit and motivation we had was evident when we saw how well we can succeed after only one practice. We can now look forward to next year with a positive attitude and hopefully do better than this year. Congratulations to the entire team, and good luck for next year!.!!

West Island Bowling . Competi tion This is the second year in a row that our squadron has hosted the West Island bowling competition. It was held April 4, 1992 at Laurentian Lanes. There was tough competition, but for the second year, 588 brought home the trophy. Our bowlers did well, not because of luck, but because of hard work and great talent. 621 Canadair Cartier Squadron came in second place and 803 Northshore Squadron came in third place. Next year with a little bit of work and developement of the great talent that our squadron has, we can bring home the trophy once again. Bowling team W02 W02 SGT CPL CPL CPL CPL CDT

BUSH SURVIVAL Our last Survival weekend (in October) was held up in Mascouche. It was very different from the previous one there. This weekend was a learning experience for everyone. Some instructors taught for the very first time and certain cadets followed some survival courses for the first time. When we arrived, everyone got organized and began to build their shelters for the night. The senior cadets had to build an entire campsite (AKA bivouac site) with little supervision and minimal help. The seniors then assisted the juniors in building their shelters for the night. Mother Nature decided to 'check if the shelters were waterproof around 0130 Sunday morning with a surprise storm. All the shelters passed with flying colours. Some of the cadets were not even aware that it was raining! The goal of this survival weekend was to introduce the new cadets to the aspects of survival techniques. For the seniors, it was a chance to extend their knowledge in the techniques of leadership, instruction, and of course, survival. As the year draws to its end, another Bush Weekend scheduled for June 05-06-07 is in the preparatory stages. Hopefully everything will go exactly as planned and Mother Nature will have confidence in our shelters, but even if she does put us to the test again, we will be ready •••
SQUADRON OTTAWA VISIT Every year the squadron visits our nation's capital. This visit consists of taking the cadets on a tour of Parliament Hill and several national museums. This year the visit began with the Aviation museum, where cadets got a chance to see the history of Canadian aviation. The War museum was visited next, and then we all had lunch at the Rideau Centre. After lunch, the cadets had a tour of Parliament Hill where they were familiarized with how the Canadian government works, and all the many things to see and learn on the Hill. This particular visit was essential seeing as how it is a required citizenship activity for all first year cadets. The last stop was the National Museum of Science and Technology, one of the most fun and educational places to visit in Ottawa. We then returned to the cadet building and all cadets had enjoyed an interesting and informative trip which they will remember in their years to come.

A DAY OF
CE
A Day of Reaeabrance Eve~y Hovember llt., Canadians across the country pause in a silent moment of remembrance for the men and women who served our country during wartime. They ~ave their lives and their future so that we may live in peace.
" ' ,VBY IIEDIIBEII? The wars affected the lives of Canadians of all ages, races and social classes. People were killed in action, were wounded and those who returned were forever changed. There were people who also served within Canada in factories, service organizations -wherever they were needed. In remembering their service and sacrifice, we recognize the tradition of freedom they fought to preserve. These men and women had faith in the future and by their acts gave us the will to preserve peace for all time. On Remembrance Day, we acknowledge the courage and gallantry of those who served their country.,
~VBOJI DO WE
REDDER?
When war came, Canadians volunteered readily to serve their country as champions of liberty. They came from farms, from small towns and large cities across the country, riding high on the initial wave of excitement, and patriotism. They joined Canada's war effort prepared to defend, to care for the wounded, to prepare materials of war, and to provide economic and moral support. They faced difficult situations bravely and brought honour to themselves, to their loved ones and to their country. They were ordinary Canadians who made extraordinary sacrifices.
q:WBAT
SHOULD
VE REIlEJlBER?
Records tell specific campaigns and battles and of many individuals acts of courage which turned the tide of war. They note skilful strategies and the brilliant leadership. All these must be remembered. But other aspects of war must also be included in our histories. With every battle over this century, extremes of temperature, mud, mutilation, mind-numbing fatigue, fear and death were daily realities. While most of us have not experienced these hardships we can try to understand what the combatants experienced and learn from the survivors.
~ROW
DO WE REHDER?
On Nove ber Ilt., we have the opportunity to re ember the efforts of those special Canadians. In rem~ bering, we pay homage to those who responded to their country's needs. On November 11th, we wear poppies. We pause for two minutes ~ silent tribute, and we attend com e orative ceremonies in memory of our wartime dead. Poppies are worn as the flower of re embrance , a reminder of blood-red flower which still grows on the site of battles fought in France and Belgium.

Ski Trip It was a fateful day in February, the 29th to be exact, when a ~roup of 30 cadets drove off in a little white school bus. Our destination; Kont St. Chaneclerc. Upon arising after a hour journey, in a flash ski wax and ski gloves, we grabbed our tickets and headed for the lifts. We skied, we taught the beginners amongst us how to ski and we even wiped out several dozen times before making a certain realization; it was COLD! Thus the ski lodge became a second home for some of us that day, relaxing, sipping on over priced hot chocolate and discussing how crazy all the cadets still on the hill where. We are all ready organizing a similar trip which will be free for all. On this trip, we will dress up as if we were going skiing, sit around the table all day and discuss how glad we are not to be outside in such weather. Thanks to all who participated. Special thanks to OCdt Tzemenakis and OCdt Adams who organized the trip and fell flat on their faces just enough tomes to make all the beginners look more and more like experts. Cpl.

Open House
On March 10th of this year, the cadets from 588 squadron held their first annual "Open House." The purpose of this event was to demonstrate to the parents the tremendous progress the cadets had made so far into the year. The Drill Team made its first public appearance of the year, and did so quite well. The PT team then came on and performed several daring (and safe, of course) jumps. Last but certainly not least was the 588 & 621 combined Drum and Bugle band, entertaining the parents with both musi.c and drill. A great pride was felt by all in (and out) of ranks when our Major Taylor became Major Taylor, C.D. After the dismissal of the squadron, refreshments were served and the parents had the opportunity to meet the officers. The night was a great success, and was enjoyed by all.

Just like every other year our squadron, 588, does fundraising. What this is, is that the cadets get together and raise money for the squadron. Car Wash: We started the year with a car wash on September 14, 1991. We placed ourselves in the parking lot of Gallery St. Laurent beside Canadian Tire. We were busy the whole day. We, the cadets, had a great time and I believe the customers were happy and pleased. Wrapping Paper: To get into the Christmas spirit we, the cadets, sold beautiful wrapping paper along with ribbons and cards. L'auto Cadet Lottery: This year we had a lottery ticket blitz on Hovember 23, 1991. A bunch of cadets went fro. door to door throughout the St. Laurent district selling tickets. The parents were involved as well, they took about 3 or 4 cadets in their car and were given a route. It was cold out, but the cadets came back to the building for some hot chocolate and donuts. Dance: We had a dance on April 4, 1992, with an excellent D.J. We, the cadets and guests, had soft drinks and with bags of chips. Everybody enjoyed themselves dancing.
COllllunity Work Our Squadron, 588 Canadair, has helped the community by doing such things as security fpr Dorval's 50 th Anniversary open house on September 1, 1991. We, the cadets, helped with crowd control and arding the planes. Lunch was provided for the cadets. Our Squadron also helped out at Canadair Family Day. We made sure the children got onto the rides properly and securely. We helped blow up balloons and handed them out to the people attending. We were given a lunch and there also was free cotton candy, pop corn and drinks for us. Our Squadron did security for a figure skating show at the Ray.ond Barque Arena on the weekend of April 24, 25 and 26, 1992, three days in a row. We helped the guests find their seats and helped the little kids get on and off the ice. Meanwhile we, the cadets got to see a beautiful show. Cpl.

Basic Course This two week course is the starting point for many cadets in summer camps. Citizenship, physical fitness, bush survival initiation, area and base visits, sports, rifle shooting, canoeing and swimming are all part of the training program. Duty Band For six weeks, a very special group of cadets come together and perform in public places, community events, parades and so on. These young musicians come from every corner of the Province, and in a very short time become our musical ambassadors for the summer camp. Furthermore, they get to extend their knowledge of music between these concerts and parades. Aircrew Survival Course On this two week course, cadets are taught basic survival techniques and orienteering. They acquire basic knowledge and self confidence towards ground search and rescue operations. Junior Leadership Course All Squadrons need senior and junior leaders to help run their units efficiently. This three week course combines Instructional Techniques, Leadership, Organizational Skills, Drill, and so on. Junior Instructor Course For three weeks some cadets are taught various Instructional Techniques, audio and visual training aids and their use and they complete practical sessions to polish their teaching skills. They will serve as cadet instructors when they return to their Squadrons. Air Studies This three week cours~ helps prepare cadets who wish to further their knowledge of the flying and gliding fields. They are possible candidates for the flying and gliding scholarships the following year.

TUESDAY NIGHTS Many important things happen on a Tuesday night that a lot of people (especially the cadets) take for granted. Many of them think that a Tuesday night is unimportant and makes no difference if they attend or not. Each Tuesday night is a must: if a cadet decides not to attend, not only can the squadron quota go down thereby reducing the number of positions open for summer camps, but this cadet misses important training. Each Tuesday night is an important one. Even the NCO fall-in is important. Cadets may think that their fall-in is not important, but i t is, because NCO fall-in involves an inspection which is needed in order to make sure that the NCO's uniforms are up to standards. If the NCO's don't have good uniforms, how can they expect the cadets to have good uniforms? The squadron fall-in includes the calling of the roll to see who's in and who's not, because each and every cadet is important. It also teaches the cadets discipline and steadiness on parade and prepares them for the Annual Inspection. Classes are divided into levels. Cadets are put into these levels according to their level of experience. These classes teach cadets about things like Bush Survival, Engines, Drill, Citizenship, and many others. As the Tuesday night goes by the cadets gain experience in many ways. I have mentioned only a few things here, but if you're a cadet and are as proud of your squadron as I am, you'll understand that Tuesday nights are not only important but fun as well, and if you don't, come and experience i t yourself. Trust me, i t ' s not only a challenge, but a challenge that makes you proud of yourself, your country, and the others around you.

This was my fourth and final year on the Drill Team as a cadet and it was surely the best. WHY?, you might wonder. Well, being commander the resp onsibi lity of getting most of the things together along with the Officer is top priority and that is the challenge I enjoyed taking on. I know there is s ome members that believe the commander just shows up and just gives c ommands well, what I could say to you is take on t he cha llenge and find o ut for yourself and I am sure you would take back yo ur comment. Our Drill Team knew their goal early on in the year, which was to make it and do go od at competition. There was some who did not stick with i t and some that did n o t believe in us. But those who stayed and believed in us c ould surely stand and say we did accomplish our goal. We got within the top ten this year, but members of the 91-92 Drill Team stick with i t , believe and you will make it to the finals guarantied ! Have a good summer a nd don 't forge t how to dri ll. And p I e as e no golf c I a p s •

The combined 588-621 Canadair Drum and Bugle Band is one of the only bands of its class in Quebec. Considering the fact that we hardly had any outside help this year, we have done very well and have kept up the :o u t s t a n d i n g reputation that Canadair has always had. This year our goal was to combine good drill and ;g o o d music. And it was not easy! The new cadets had to learn from scratch, and I must admit that they caught on fast. Our first parade was the Remembrance Day parade which went over very well. And the parades that followed were excellent also. Now there is only our Annual Parade left. We will all come together for the last time this year and put on a wonderful show. I have gained a lot of experience from being Drum Major this year and I hope that whoever takes my place will learn as much as I did. But if I remain Drum Major, I will see ou next year.
