Another busy week for the SAR crews at 424 Sqn. The first mission on 25 Aug. saw both the Cormorant and the Herc tasked to look for an overdue 12 ft. boat, with a 15-year-old male on board, on Nottawasaga Bay. Both aircraft flew search patterns before being stood down because a Good Samaritan located the boat.The next day saw the Cormorant tasked to search for two stranded kayakers near Wawa, Ontario. Poor visibility and low clouds prevented the crew from performing an adequate search so the Rescue Coordination Centre here in Trenton stood them down and they returned home. On Aug 27th, the Cormorant was flying two miles offshore north of Owen Sound looking for a missing person. After conducting an extensive visual search, the crew saw nothing and was sent home. The 29th found the Cormorant on its way to Algonquin Park to medevac a very sick camper and two others from their campsite. The area where they were located did not provide a suitable landing zone for the helicopter so the rescue was accomplished with use of the hoist. All three people were extracted from the camp site and taken to hos- pital in Huntsville.

In BUTT OUT, we start with the simple fact that smoking does good things for you. Maybe it reduces stress. Maybe it gives you a break, or helps you concentrate. PPeett PPaarrttiiccuullaarrss BUTT OUT can help you identify your personal reasons for smoking, then help you develop and practice substitutes for smoking that do the We’re almost purr-fect... same good things for you, without the negative long-term effects that smoking gives you.

BUTT OUT can also help you overcome the addiction to nicotine. You may be eligible to get nicotine gum, the nicotine patch or the bupropion pill at DND expense if you also participate in BUTT OUT.

Research shows that the best success rates come from a combination of behaviour modification, group support and medications to help reduce nicotine withdrawal. BUTT OUT gives you all of these things.

“I’VE DECIDED TO QUIT SMOKING. NOW WHAT?”

BUTT OUT is nine sessions scheduled over 14 weeks. Group sessions are led by trained facilitators. There is no charge to attend this program.

BUTT OUT was developed specifically for CF personnel in 1980. It was evaluated, and showed one-year quit rates of up to 50% for those who participated actively in the program. It was revised and updated in 1995 and again in 2003.
