Description


Exercise Paladin Response is the annual engineer domestic operations and mobility exercise conducted in Chilliwack during the Christmas period. Military engineers will conduct training on fixed and floating equipment including the Medium Girder Bridge, ACROW Bridge and Medium Raft.


39 Combat Engineer Regiment invites cadets from supported units to observe interesting aspects of combat engineer training. The tour begins with a briefing at the Colonel Roger St John armoury at 0830, and will conclude by 1600. Following a safety brief, visitors will move through exercise activity locations with opportunities to observe the training and converse with the soldiers. There may be an opportunity for cadets to participate in assault boat familiarization and take a ride on a bridging boat.


Cadets will be dropped off and picked up at the LHQ. The OIC will transport the cadets to Chilliwack and between activity locations by minivan.


Cadets shall dress in combats or civilian attire appropriate for wet and cold weather, and bring a change of clothes. Cadets should bring a packed lunch and water bottle.


Each participating unit has been invited to send 6 (six) cadets. Interested cadets must be of the rank of Corporal or above, and should sign up on the sign up sheet at the squadron by NOVEMBER 27th. Final selection of cadets will be announced the deadline.
