The change of appointment ceremony held recently at 15 Wing included laughter, a few tears and genuine appreciation of his colleagues during his time as the Wing Chief Warrant Officer.

Chief John Hall said his goodbyes to Moose Jaw as he prepares to take up new duties as Chief WO at 2 Canadian Air Division in Winnipeg. He has been in Moose Jaw for close to two years.

The new Chief is no stranger to 15 Wing. Chief Marlene Shillingford served as the first female technician with the Snowbirds for the 1993-94 season and became the first female crew chief for the Snowbirds in 2007.
