It has been quite an eventful year and I hope the Editorial team have provided you with a varied and interesting magazine during 2014. However, we are always interested in your comments and suggestions on ways to improve or expand the magazine’s contents. The only constraint on change is that we cannot increase the paper magazine size beyond the current maximum number of pages (this is set at 64 pages and to increase on this number would mean a significant increase in subscription rates). There is one option we can use for increasing the overall news and articles beyond these 64 pages, we can always add stand alone regular additions/sections to our sister magazine - @MAR! The Foreign section has had to be truncated again this month due to lack of space (we could have added at least another 20 pages), but we should get the large number of interesting reports from outside Europe into the January and February issues in 2015. We always have to sacrifice the Foreign Section as this is the last section to be completed each month and it is always constrained by the number of pages left out of the total of 64 we can go up to. MAR PDF Files will be removed on Jnaury 10th @MAR Files will be removed on January 25th COVER PHOTOGRAPH: The RAAF displayed a 4 ship P-3 formation over RAAF Edinburgh for the 75th Anniversary of 10 and 11 Squadrons on October 3rd (RAAF Official via Rod Brown) Closing date for the January issue is 08.01.15 Brian Pickering 14.12.14 662 BRITISH REVIEW As the end of this year comes to an end and this marks my 31st edition since taking over the position of MAR UK Editor. The tasks at times have been hard but overall I could not do the work without the dedication from the monthly reports I receive without fail. For this I would like to thank every one of you personally, but that would take too long, so I thank you all and please keep the logs coming. Next month will contain the usual full UK Fleet rundown. And finally all I have to say is Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all…...Mick Boulanger (Military movements is history, now and for our future) BELFAST CITY AIRPORT - Military visitors noted during October:- 23rd 279 AW-139 IAC 301 Sqn “IRL279”* 31st ZE395 BAe 125 CC.3 32(TR) Sqn BELFAST INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT - Military visitors noted during October:- 08th ZH873/873 Hercules C.4 24/30/47 Sqn “RRR5568/5569”; 17th ZH886/886 Hercules C.5 24/30/47 Sqn “RRR886”; 30th ZH904/(HS) Chinook HC.3 Odiham Wing n/s.

Jane and I did get away for some of the bad weather. We spent mid-March to mid-April traveling down south, Memphis to see Pete Wasmund, Texas to visit the Stott’s and Florida to visit the Oulman’s and Davis’s. Also, three weeks in Pompano Beach playing golf. Not quite a pity party. The 2019 Reunion has been delayed one day due to allowing folks to attend the Easter Holiday with family and friends. If you have already made your advance reservations, contact the Clarion Hotel and update your reservation. The Clarion phone number is 800-725-2236 or 417-334-7666. The revised Reunion dates are April 23rd thru 28th. We’re sorry for the confusion, Sally and I discussed the change and thought this was the best way to proceed. Sally has put together a great reunion with very good hotel rates, so please forgive the confusion and plan on a wonderful time in Branson. I received an email from an old friend I served with in VW-11 Newfoundland about the Willy Victor Reunion at Willow Run Airport, Ypsilanti, Mich.

By March 2016, when the World Health Organization (WHO) announced an end to the Public Health Emergency of International Concern declared in August 2014, some 28,616 confirmed, probable and suspected cases, with 11,310 deaths, had been reported in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone – the three worst-affected countries. • The exceptional magnitude and duration of the emergency meant that the response was honed over time, presenting a rare opportunity to study the management of the response as it matured. This paper focuses on Sierra Leone, which experienced the highest number of cases, with 14,124 infections, including 3,956 deaths, reported to WHO, and where the operational architecture of the Ebola response went through three main iterations over a 22-month period.
