bus left the station for northern
Bruce Peninsula.
Arriving at the destination each
individual set about his assign-
ment. Soon two tents were pitch-
ed and the smell of fresh coffee
and stepper surrounded the camp.
Tall trees whistling in the spring
air from Lake Huron carried the
voices of weary men throughout
the bush.
Early the next morning after
breakfast, a• group of cadets with
the aid of a compass and their
instructor commenced the long
trek through the marshy swamp
and dense bush to the lake. It was
their task to draw a map of the.
direct route from the camp to
the lake shore. Many difficulties
were encountered. Many times
trees were climbed to give the
ground party an idea of their true
heading. After four hours of hik-
ing and drenched feet the lake
was reached and a fire was made
to dry the clothes.
The evening was spent singing
around the camp fire and swap-
ping tales about pre -service exper-
iences. Sunday at noon the RCAF
bus returned to Baie de Dore to
bring the survival party back to
the Air Radio Officer School. A
pleasant weekend was spent by all
concerned and much bush exper-
ience, which may someday be put
into practise in Canada's vast
north, was derived by these Air
Radio Officer students,
