After a 12 year term at the Canadian Forces Flying Training School at Southport, Honorary Colonel Hal Wishart stepped down last week as part of a change of command ceremony.
Hayden Henwood is now in the position.
Wishart calls him a good choice, having known him for years. He says Henwood has the experience necessary to fulfill the duties.
Meanwhile, Henwood feels honoured to be Honorary Colonel. He'll act as a liaison with the community, speaking to different groups about the role of the Armed Forces.
He'll also promote the importance of training facilities and personnel.
