HMCS Windsor returns from Exercise DYNAMIC MONGOOSE 2016

By Alex Calder, PA Co-op student MARLANT

On August 9, HMC Submarine Windsor returned to Halifax from the Norwegian Sea, after parti- cipating in the multi-national joint Exercise DYNAMIC MON- GOOSE 2016. DM 16 was a 10-day NATO anti-submarine warfare exercise that took place from June 23 to July 2 in the Norwegian Sea, in an area measuring 14,000 square nautical miles. Windsor’s parti- cipation in DM 16 was a first for a Canadian submarine. After arriving for its first planned event, the boat performed well in all its subsequently scheduled events with partner countries. The focus of the exercise was on detecting and defending against submarines. During the exercise, the submarines had to travel from one location to another while surface vessels tried to track them down and simulate an at- tack. The surface units also had to travel between two transit points while under the threat of submarines.

He says that while no training program, exercise or operation can ever reach 100 per cent ef- fectiveness, Lessons Learned is a methodology to make things run more smoothly. For STAUNCH MAPLE, the two recent graduates of the Les- sons Learned (LL) course, Lt(N) Justine Aucoin, RCAF LL Staff Officer, and Lt(N) Sonya Sowa, NATO LL Officer of Primary Responsibility, are developing those solutions. The two are working in a second floor boardroom at the Wardroom, writing down their key findings on giant pieces of paper taped to the wall, after pouring over hundreds of obser- vations, notes, recorded com- ments, interviews and email responses from military person- nel who participated in Exercise STAUNCH MAPLE. “There has been a high level of participation at all levels and all ranks,” says Lt(N) Aucoin. “The pieces of paper on the wall are all categorized, and identify what is the real root cause of the prob- lem, and suggestions on how to make things run more smoothly, or how it could work better if we did something a different way.” Although the July 6 deadline for submission of feedback from the exercise has passed, LCdr Fedoruk said that any additional data they receive will still be valued and added to their notes. He also says the Lessons Learned Program is not about the blame game, and that responses from lower-ranked personnel were weighted just the same as senior officers. “There is a tendency in our organization [the CAF] not to voice criticism; however, criti- cism is the emphasis of this pro- cess,” says LCdr Fedoruk. “This is about getting the facts and learning from them, and not finding someone to blame. It is simply here’s what happened and why. This information is very valuable to us.” The graduation of Lt(N) Auc- oin and her classmates from the program now brings the total number of CAF personnel quali- fied for Lessons Learned to 300. “It’s an impressive tally,” says SWIM | NAGE BIKE | PÉDALE RUN | COURS LCdr Fedoruk. “The fact that 300m swim • Natation 300m 6.5K mountain bike • vélo de montagne 6,5km 2k run • course à pied 2km there exists a large number of personnel qualified to understand and apply the Lessons Learned Program should please com- 23 SEPTEMBER 2016 | START 1000 | DÉPART À 10 H manders and commanding of- MACDONALD BEACH | À LA PLAGE MACDONALD ficers as they very likely have one of these folks working for Complete the fitness challenge as an individual or as a team of3! them.” Lt(N) Aucoin and Lt(N) Sowa Register Today at www.psphalifax.ca will send their recommendations Inscrivez-vous aujourd’hui au www.psphalifax.ca for change to the military’s earth- quake provincial response to LCdr Fedoruk, who will move to the process to the next step of the CAF Lessons Learned Process, /psphalifax identifying the right organization Open to military, DND, and NPF civilian employees only | Seuls les employés civils du MDN, des FNP, et les militaires peuvent y participer to endorse and direct changes.
