By Ryan Melanson, Trident Staff

With less than three weeks to go before hundreds of injured and ill armed forces personnel arrive in Toronto for the 2017 Invictus Games, organizers brought the spirit and energy of the event to Halifax for a stop on their national tour. The Invictus Team spent 37 days travelling the country, stopping at 22 CAF bases along the way to drum up excitement for Invictus and spread the message of perseverance and ca- maraderie associated with the annual adaptive sporting event. They brought with them organizers, officials, mas- cots and Invictus competitors, and on September 5, they visited HMCS Scotian for the latest stop. “It’s been an incredible experience for us to bring the team to thousands of Canadians across the country, and give more people a chance to be part of the spirit of these games and to learn about the impact,” said Invictus Games CEO Michael Burns, who is also a co-founder of the True Patriot A massive Invictus Games banner hangs from the side of HMCS Toronto to mark the Halifax stop of the Invictus National Flag Love Foundation and a recipient of tour on September 5. the Canadian Forces Medallion for RYAN MELANSON, TRIDENT STAFF Distinguished Service.

By Ryan Melanson, Trident Staff

Through his four years in command of MARLANT and JTFA, RAdm John Newton became known for his unorth- odox and colourful leadership style, something that was clearly reflected in the ceremony as the formation said goodbye to the outgoing commander on September 1. Sing-a-longs, props, a few tears and lots of laughter were all part of the Change of Command Ceremony, which saw RAdm Craig Baines, former Commander of CANFLTLANT, take over from the man who served as his boss for the previous years. With plenty of serving and retired colleagues present, including VAdm Ron Lloyd, Commander RCN, along with family, friends and members of the wider Halifax community, RAdm Newton pointed out some of the highlights of his time in command. From seeing the completion of the HCM/ FELEX process, to pushing HMCS Windsor through hundreds of days at sea, to deploying personnel to a range of operations and exercises that broke RAdm Craig Baines, LGen Steve Bowes, VAdm Ron Lloyd, and RAdm John Newton sign the Change of Command certificates dur- from RCN routine and created new ing the ceremony on September 1, 2017. avenues for the Navy.

By Ryan Melanson, Trident Staff

As the Atlantic Fleet prepares for the delivery of the Navy’s interim supply ship, the head of the company responsible for operating the new civilian-owned vessel spoke to industry experts and defence officials in Halifax with new details about the MV Asterix and Project Resolve. Federal Fleet Services CEO Spencer Fraser gave a presentation at DEFSEC Atlantic, one of Canada’s largest defence trade shows, which was held in Halifax from September 5-7. Federal Fleet Services is the sister company to Davie Shipbuilding, which purchased and converted the German cargo ship into a fully-capable tanker ship to be used by the Navy. The latest update on the project came with the company’s announce- ment of a new operations sub-centre to be opened in Halifax in the coming months to coincide with the Asterix arriving in its initial homeport of Halifax later this fall. Though plans are for the ship to sail on both coasts, including a deployment to RIMPAC in 2018, CEO Spencer Fraser said the majority of the ship’s civilian mariners will be from Nova Scotia. In total, Federal Fleet Services says the new Halifax MV Asterix is scheduled to arrive in its new homeport of Halifax later this fall. sub-centre will create 718 jobs an- SUBMITTED nually through the project’s 10-year provision of services agreement, As for the working relationship The Navy’s new supply ships to be combatant ships, which is to take while generating an additional $1.8 between civilian mariners and Navy built from scratch in British Colum- a civilian ship, in this case a brand billion in economic spinoffs through personnel, or ‘CAF Mission Special- bia, the Queenston class Joint Sup- new 700 TEU cargo ship, and we’re that period. ists’ as they’ll be called, Fraser said port Ships, aren’t due for delivery converting it to have AOR capability,” “We’re proud to be in Halifax and Federal Fleet Services will employ until 2021 and 2022.

By RCAF Public Affairs

Governor General and Commander- in-Chief of Canada David Johnston presented the Royal Canadian Air Force with new Colours during a military parade and ceremony at Nathan Phillips Square in Toronto, on Friday, September 1, 2017. Colours are consecrated ceremo- nial flags carried by designated CAF combatant formations and units. The RCAF carries two Colours: the Queen’s Colour, a maple leaf flag with the Sovereign’s cypher in the centre, which symbolizes loyalty to the Crown, and the Command Colour, a blue flag with the RCAF’s badge at the centre, symbolizing the RCAF’s pride, cohesion, and valour. The RCAF Colours replace the Air Command Colours that were presented 35 years ago in 1982. “Our Colours are precious, and embody the pride, dedication, duty, and honour of all RCAF personnel, past and present,” said LGen Michael Hood, commander of the RCAF. “As we accept these new Colours, all members of the RCAF, regardless of rank, The RCAF is presented with new Colours during a military parade and ceremony at Nathan Phillips Square in Toronto, on occupation, or experience, symbolical- Friday, September 1, 2017.

To help answer this ques- tion, we created the below quick refer- ence guide: Water is a nutrient that is essential to life. The human body is composed mainly of water, up to 70%, depending on your age, gender and body compo- sition. Most average adults require 2.2 L to 3 L of water per day. Those with a physically active lifestyle require more to compensate losses from sweat. Given the large percentage of water in the human body, it is not sur- prising that water plays an extremely important role in many of the body’s critical functions. Water, a vital nutrient to the life of every cell, regulates our internal body temperature by sweating; helps make nutrients and other essential elements accessible by transporting them to our cells; assists in flushing waste mainly through urination; lubricates joints; forms saliva; and acts as a shock absorber for brain, spinal cord, and fetus. With- out water intake, humans cannot live more than three to five days. Water is the perfect fluid choice during moderate activity. Sports drinks can be helpful if you are planning on exercising at higher than normal levels for more than an hour. They contain carbohydrates and electro- lytes that can increase your energy. They also help your body absorb water. However, some sports drinks are high in calories and may contain high levels of sodium (salt). Check the ingredient list and nutritional label. 100% fruit juice packs a bigger nutritional punch than sports drinks, so make your own sport drink using your favourite fruit juices – Mix 500 ml of fruit juice and 500 ml of water and 1.5 ml of salt. For more information on hydration or other health topics, please contact the health promotion division at 1 902 722 4956 or email halifaxhealthpromo- [email protected]

Helpful Hydration Hints • Carry a personal water bottle for a drink at any time. To reduce your costs, carry a reusable water bottle and fill it with tap water. • If you don’t like the taste of plain water, try adding a slice of lemon or lime to your drink. • When you’re feeling hungry, drink water. Thirst is often confused with hunger. True hunger will not be satisfied by drinking water. Drink- ing water may also contribute to September 18, 2017 TRIDENT News 23
