Exercise NORTHERN BISON
Master Corporal Richard Cumbers and Cpl Samuel Podiluk start moving back to their platoon location on board their Light Over-Snow Vehicle (LOSV). MCpl Cumbers and Cpl Podiluk are with The North Saskatchewan Regiment.
More than 100 Army Reserve soldiers from across 38 Canadian Brigade Group took to the sub-arctic about 30 kilometres outside Churchill, Manitoba for Exercise NORTHERN BISON from 14-21 February. This training event is one of several steps to increasing the Army's northern capability. In response to the growing strategic importance of Canada's Arctic Region, the Canada First Defence Strategy mandates significant Canadian
Forces presence in the Arctic. While it is anticipated the majority of Arctic operations will be predominantly air or maritime focused, there remains a requirement for an effective ground response. 38 Canadian Brigade Group is comprised of all Army Reserve units from Thunder Bay, Ontario to the Saskatchewan/Alberta border.

Plus de 100 membres de la Réserve de l’Armée de terre du 38e Groupebrigade du Canada (38 GBC) se sont rendus dans la zone subarctique à environ 30 km de Churchill, au Manitoba, dans le cadre de l’exercice Northern Bison tenu du 14 au 21 février. Cet événement lié à l’instruction est l’une des nombreuses étapes visant l’accroissement de la capacité de l’Armée de terre dans le Nord. Compte tenu de l’importance stratégique croissante de la région arctique du Canada, la Stratégie de défense Le Canada d’abord prévoit une augmentation considérable de la présence des Forces canadiennes dans l’Arctique. On s’attend à ce que la majorité des opérations dans l’Arctique soient menées par voie aérienne ou maritime, mais on a tout de même besoin d’une capacité d’intervention terrestre efficace. Le 38 GBC est formé des unités de la Réserve de l’Armée de terre situées entre Thunder Bay, en Ontario, et la frontière de la Saskatchewan et de l’Alberta.

FGS Homburg (SNMCMG1) Seafox technicians conduct pre- diving checks while conducting Mine Counter Measure Operations at night during Trident Juncture 18 October 26, 2018. Trident Juncture 18 is designed to ensure that NATO forces are trained, able to operate together and ready to respond to any threat from any direction. Trident Juncture 18 takes place in Norway and the surrounding areas of the North Atlantic and the Baltic Sea, including Iceland and the airspace of Finland and Sweden.
With around 50,000 participants from 31 nations Trident Juncture 2018 is one of NATOâs largest exercises in recent years. More than 250 aircraft, 65 ships and 10,000 vehicles are involved in the exercise to perform and conduct air, land, maritime, special operation and amphibious drills. NATO Photo By WO FRAN C.Valverde

U.S. Army paratroopers from the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, load onto an U.S. Air Force C-17 Globemaster III transport aircraft from the 437th Airlift Wing, Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina, on Green Ramp, Pope Army Airfield, N.C., Jan. 27, 2015, during an Emergency Deployment Readiness Exercise. Five hundred paratroopers from the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, were airdropped onto Wright Army Airfield, Fort Stewart, Ga., from five C-17 transport aircraft 18 hours after notification. As the nucleus of the nation's Global Response Force, the 82nd Airborne Division provides a strategic hedge for combatant commanders with a responsive, agile and operationally significant response force that is flexible in size and composition to accomplish missions anywhere in the world. Air Mobility Command's participation also illustrates the critical partnership between Mobility Air Forces and the U.S. Army by exercising Joint Forcible Entry: the capability of rapidly introducing forces into hostile environments to conduct operations—whether combat or humanitarian support.

Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service's first training exercise on board a ship has been hailed a success.
Crews from around the county were called to Wisbech Port on Wednesday evening (Oct 19) for a simulated fire in the engine room of a 3,000 tonne Russian ship, with casualties and persons overboard.
The Incident Command Unit from Huntingdon attended along with crews from Wisbech and Huntingdon. Crews from Dogsthorpe with specialist in-water training also attended, together with two crews from Outwell and West Walton in Norfolk.
Twenty-five firefighters had to locate and gain access to the ship’s engine room where the fire was located and carry out a search and rescue of all on-board casualties and extinguish all fires.
Dogsthorpe firefighters wearing drysuits used an inflatable boat to locate and rescue three casualties in the water, working alongside two crews from Fenland District Council’s Harbour Authority, who also had three members of staff shoreside, including Harbour Master Jamie Hemming and a representative from Fenland District Council’s Health and Safety Department.
Exercise Poseidon, as it was referred to throughout the exercise, saw dummies thrown into the water some distance from the ship, which was moored at the harbour in Nene Parade, close to the town centre.
Hazards faced by the crews included narrow passageways, trip hazards with ropes and a potential to fall in the water.
On-board operations took place in dark, narrow passageways with one room filled with smoke. Firefighters searching for bodies in the River Nene worked in night-time conditions.
Although Wisbech firefighters have attended a fire on board a ship before, it was over the border in Norfolk.
Wednesday night’s Exercise Poseidon, however, was Cambridgeshire’s first in-county training exercise on board a ship.
Watch Commander Phil Pilbeam, from Wisbech Station, spent eight weeks planning the event with Crew Commander Tim Carr.
“I’m really pleased with how things went. It all went really smoothly.”
He said the exercise provided a unique opportunity for firefighters to train on board a ship.
"Firefighters in Cambridgeshire are well trained and knowledgeable in house fires, factory fires and Road Traffic Collisions etc. However, a ship fire is unique. It's in a confined space, it's made of metal and it's a lot hotter because it's a metal container.
"Ships have an unfamiliar layout to crews. They can be very complex in their layout and this was a unique opportunity for all the crews to attend and to put these different skills into practice."
WC Pilbeam said the exercise had raised some good learning points.
“The inflatable boat from Dogsthorpe was not powerful enough for a tidal area. It was fine going with the tide but not against it. It had to be towed by the two boats from the Harbour Authority.
“Also, the crew set up lots of hose reels to help us out but we couldn’t use them because the couplings didn’t fit ours so we will be talking to the Harbour Master and our Operational Support Group to bring in some specialist hose reels for the harbour.”
He said communication with the nine-strong Russian crew on board the ship, had proved challenging.
“There were definitely language barriers that were an issue. We would ask what we wanted to get across and they would try and put across what they wanted. There were lots of hand signals and lots of pointing and gesturing.”
Despite some of the difficulties faced, he said the whole exercise, from time of call-out to when the crews returned to their stations, took three hours, which was what he had expected.
Harbour Master Jamie Hemming, of Fenland District Council, said with about forty cargo ships arriving at Wisbech Port each year there was a ‘real chance’ of a fire on board a ship so training exercises like this were really helpful.
“There’s a real chance of fire on board a ship. We are the only Port in Cambridgeshire so for Wisbech it is a serious scenario so from that point of view it was good to see the guys working on something a little bit out of their comfort zone.
“The joint exercise went extremely well and it was reassuring for us as a Harbour Authority to see the whole thing co-ordinated in such a professional and timely manner. It will stand us all in good stead should a similar real incident occur.”
Jamie said the Harbour Authority was keen to see more training exercises on board ships in the future.
“I would like to see another training exercise on board a ship at least once or twice a year as it’s a very proactive approach.”
The majority of boats coming into Wisbech arrive from the Baltics carrying timber and leave with scrap metal for Spain.

The exercise took place throughout Sweden, but primarily in the southern parts of the country and on Gotland.
NATO Allies that took part included Estonia, Finland, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Portugal, UK and US.
They trained alongside the Swedish Army, Swedish Navy, Swedish Air Force and Home Guard. Exercise Aurora 23 ran from 17 April to 11 May 2023.
