Search & Rescue UPDATE Greetings from the Tiger’s Lair here in Hangar 9. Another relatively quiet one this week here at 424 Squadron. We had only two call-outs. The first was on Nov 14, when our CC-130 was sent to the Peterborough area to investigate an Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT). Shortly after the Herc arrived in the area, the ELT was located in a building by a local CASARA unit and our crew returned to Trenton. The second task was for another ELT but this time it was right here in the Trenton area. Our Herc crew was once again called upon to investigate. After flying multiple passes over the Base it was determined the signal was coming from the 10 Hangar area. It was not possible to localize the signal any further from the air, and the crew returned to Base.

  • Whom to Obey?: the Dilemma for the NATO ISAF Commander, May 2006
    Whom to Obey ? : The Dilemma for the NATO ISAF Commander, May 2006 – February 2007 By Brian Babcock-Lumish “True professionals, first and foremost, talk command and control, then logistics and then tactics”. 1 British Army General Sir David Richards As the commander of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Allied Rapid Reaction Corps (ARRC), British Army General David Richards (hereafter, “Richards”) served from May 2006 to February 2007 as the commander of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) on behalf of NATO and a wider coalition under United Nations 2 (UN) auspices. By the ARRC’s arrival in 2006, ISAF was a 37-member “coalition of the 3 willing” built around a core of the then 26-member NATO Alliance. As the Commander, ISAF (COMISAF), Richards reported solely to NATO in Belgium, despite wearing a British uniform and the United Kingdom controlling his appointment to the post and its duration.4 Importantly for this article, little research has been done to explore the complexities of multinational chains of command from the perspective of a “single-hatted” multinational commander with “double-hatted” national contingent commanders (NCC’s) reporting in both national and multinational chains of command.5 Prior to Richards’ command, ISAF expanded its geographic responsibility in the first two of four stages from the Afghan capital Kabul to the north (stage 1) and west (stage 2) in 2004-2005. During Richards’ tenure, the expansion continued counter-clockwise to the south (stage 3) and east (stage 4) in 2006 (see Figure 1, next page). Commensurate with the geographic expansion, ISAF gradually grew in troop strength, with reinforcements coming from both outside the theatre and the American-led Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) coalition already in-theatre.
