The purpose of this document is to provide guidance to you, the Honorary member, as it provides information on various topics concerning your appointment. This Aide-Memoire is released under the authority of the Commander of the Canadian Army and is to be used in conjunction with the Director Senior Appointments (DSA) Booklet (reference M). The Council of Honorary Colonels of the Canadian Army Executive Committee is responsible to the Commander to make recommendations for amendments to this document. This document will be reviewed annually in order to maintain its currency. The references quoted herein are effective the date of release of the Aide-Memoire. 2. The Canadian tradition of appointing honoraries to units originated with the British military but has only been in practice in Canada for a little over a century. The first Honorary Colonel appointment in Canada was that of Lieutenant-Colonel the Honourable J.M. Gibson, a Provincial Secretary in the Ontario Government. He was appointed as Honorary Lieutenant Colonel to the 13th Battalion of Infantry in 1895. 3. Early in the 20th century the prime minister of Canada, Sir Robert Borden described the practice of appointing honoraries as: “of greatest advantage to the Militia to be able to enlist the interest and sympathy of gentleman of position and wealth by connecting them to Regiments”. That sentiment remains true today. The Honorary is seen to be the guardian of Regimental traditions and history, promoting the units identity and ethos and being an advisor to the Commanding Officer on virtually all issues EXCLUDING operations. Although the movement originated with the army, over the years the practice of appointing honoraries has evolved and we now have Honorary members representing all the environments and major components of the Canadian Forces. Honorary members work behind the scene and provide needed support that would otherwise not be available. 1/7 THE CANADIAN FORCES – REGULAR AND RESERVE 4. The CF consists of a Regular, full time component and a Reserve (ordinarily part time) component. The Reserves is the collective name applied to the Navy Reserve, the Army Reserve (Militia) and the Air Reserve. 5. The Army is organised into four geographic Divisions currently known as 3 Canadian Division, 4 Canadian Division, 2 Canadian Division, and 5 Canadian Division. Additionally, the Army has grouped all of its training organizations into the Canadian Army Doctrine and Training Centre (CADTC). Each Division is further divided into Regular Force Brigades known as Canadian Mechanised Brigade Groups (CMBG) and Reserve Force Brigades known as Canadian Brigade Groups (CBG). There are a total of three CMBGs and ten CBGs across the entire Canadian Army. With the exception of certain specialty units, every Army Reserve unit is grouped within one of the ten Army Reserve CBGs. 6. Members of the Reserve component will normally serve in one of three categories: Class A – normal Reserve Unit duties i.e. one evening a week training with their Unit and weekend exercises or training scheduled throughout the year; Class B – “Called Out” to serve on a full time basis in support of the Reserves or a Reserve Unit, usually no longer than six months or Class B (permanent), which consists of a relatively small number of individuals who serve on a full time basis, at all levels, within the CF organization; Class C – “Called Out” to supplement or fill a Regular Force position. There may also be other, special, “Call Outs”. 7. The difference between “Colonel of the Regiment” and “Honorary Colonels/Lieutenant Colonels” is based on the unit to which they are appointed and whether that unit is Regular or Reserve Force – “Colonel of the Regiment” is appointed to a Regular Force unit, and an Honorary Colonel is appointed to a Reserve unit. Some Reserve units are battalions of a Regular Regiment and the Colonel of the Regiment is the Honorary appointment for the entire Regiment including the Regular and Reserve battalions. ELIGIBILITY 8. To be eligible a person must: a. be a former Canadian Forces (CF) officer, a former officer of any of Her Majesty’s Forces who has a record of distinguished service, a distinguished Canadian citizen or a distinguished British subject; and b. meet such other conditions as the Minister may prescribe. 9. While not being a criterion for selection, but rather an asset to the performance of their duties, the candidate for honorary appointment should, preferably, be able to communicate in both official languages. APPOINTMENT AUTHORITY 10. The Minister of National Defence (MND), on the recommendation of the Chief of the Defence Staff (CDS) is the approving authority for all appointments. The tenure of appointment of an Honorary member will normally be for a period of three years. This three-year period is very specific with start and end dates. Unit Commanding Officers (COs) are responsible, prior to reaching the termination date for their Honorary member, to initiate a request, through the Chain of Command, eighteen months prior to the appointment termination, for a new 2/7 appointment or extension request. This time frame should allow the staffing process to conclude in order to have a replacement in place in a timely fashion. EXTENSION AUTHORITY 11. Extensions to the tenure of appointment may be granted for a period of one, two or three years. Subsequent extensions can also be requested. An extension request is processed in the same manner as an original appointment except that extensions will be processed directly by DSA to MNDO, without requiring input from CDSO. Unit COs are also responsible to initiate extensions and should do so eighteen months prior to the appointment termination for the same reasons as above. 12. The Chain of Command will be informed by DSA that the extension has been approved. The nominee will then be asked to confirm that they accept the extension (again this must be done personally by the appointee). Until such time as the acceptance of the extension is received, normally by email, the extension will not be entered into the system. It should be noted that there will be no letter from the MND for honorary extensions as this is only extended for initial appointments. 13. If no request for a

  • Lieutenant Colonel (Ret’D) Dan Dempsey, Cd
    LIEUTENANT COLONEL (RET’D) DAN DEMPSEY, CD A pilot by profession, Dan Dempsey’s motivation towards an aviation career was fostered by his boyhood fascination watching the RCAF Golden Hawks aerobatic team perform. Born in Hamilton, Ontario to an air force father who worked at Mount Hope, he grew up near RCAF Stations Rockcliffe (Ottawa), Lincoln Park (Calgary) and Namao (Edmonton). His passion for flying led to a 23 year career with the Canadian Forces. A graduate of Royal Roads Military College in Victoria, British Columbia and the Royal Military College of Canada in Kingston, Ontario, he holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Applied Science. Dan earned his private pilot license in 1972 at the Victoria Flying Club while attending Royal Roads and his Air Force wings at CFB Moose Jaw in June 1975. Having subsequently instructed on the CT-114 Tutor for four years, Dan was selected to fly one of the coveted solo positions with the Snowbirds (Snowbird 9) for the 1980-1981 airshow seasons. He then trained on the CF-5 Freedom Fighter and CF-104 Starfighter at Cold Lake, Alberta, subsequently flying the Starfighter with both 439 and 441 Tactical Fighter Squadrons based in Baden-Soellingen, West Germany. Returning to command 431 Air Demonstration Squadron in 1989 and 1990, he was honoured to lead the Snowbirds through their 20th anniversary and 1,000th official performance. A distinguished graduate of the Canadian Forces Command and Staff College in Toronto, Dan was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel following his Snowbird tour and served as Executive Assistant to the Commander Air Command where he was successful in initiating several important air force heritage projects, including the designation of CFBs Bagotville and Cold Lake to 3 and 4 Wings respectively following the closure of Canadian Forces Europe.

  • What Is the Reserve Force? the Reserve Force Is a Large Branch of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF)
    2 Joining the Reserves What is the Reserve Force? The Reserve Force is a large branch of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). It is made up of people from the community who work in the CAF part time or full time. Members of the Reserve Force are called Reservists. Most Reservists also have other jobs. Alternatively, the Regular Force consists of members that work full time. These Did you know? members are also available at a moment’s notice to respond to any natural disasters or The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) was threat to national security. previously referred to as the Canadian Forces (CF). The name was changed in 2013 to give a truer sense of the purpose of our troops. Who joins the Reserve Force? People join the Reserves for many different reasons. Some want adventure, a chance to serve others, a challenge, or a second income. However, something all Reservists have in common is a wish to serve their country. A career in the Canadian Armed Forces is a call to duty. The soldiers, sailors, airmen, and airwomen who answer this call want to help others, and they are determined to defend and protect what they believe in. Military families “Strength Behind the Uniform.” 3 About this handbook Why do we have an Orientation Handbook? The Reserve Force is a large branch of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). In the Canadian Armed Forces, we say that military families are the Strength Behind the Uniform. Families support Reservists during relatively small commitments like weekend training and summer courses. Families also support Reservists during major events, for example, when the Reservists are sent to other parts of Canada or the world.
