Aviator to aviator: Visit with veteran ties RCAF history together
On January 7, 2020, 404 Long Range Patrol and Training Squadron leadership from 14 Wing Greenwood, Nova Scotia, visited a living legend in the long-range patrol community.
Flight Lieutenant (retired) Jim McRae, formerly of Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) No. 162 Squadron, is 102 years old and living at the Veterans Place in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. He warmly greeted 404 Squadron commanding officer Lieutenant-Colonel Angie Thomas, Chief Warrant Officer Jonathan Freeman, and training enhancement officer (and former Yarmouth resident) Captain Robert Albert, who initiated the visit.
