Watch for signs of 405 (Long Range Patrol) Squadron pride and personality, as unit members are sporting a new patch on their sleeves. Corporal Gregory Rose, centre, was the winning designer of the patch contest, initiated through the squadron kit shop in August. Six submissions were reviewed and voted on by squadron members, with Rose’s design winning by a landslide. Official approval to wear the patch on the right arm of operational dress was granted in December, and the patch is now available in the 405 Squadron kit shop. Rose was recently presented with the first patch of the batch by 405 Squadron Commanding Officer Lieutenant-Colonel Dan Arsenault, left, with Chief Warrant Officer Duane May.
