Organization Order R2.0.0.12
2453 Aircraft Control and Warning Squadron (Auxiliary)
Three Rivers, PQ

16 Jun 58

INFORMATION

In accordance with a decision to assign a new role to RCAF Auxiliary Sqns, it has been found desirable to carry out a general reorganization of the RCAF Auxiliary. Under this new concept the Auxiliary Wing Headquarters will be controlling a transport, rather than an air defence, type of activity. However, since the functions of the AC&W Sqns (Aux) will continue to be homogeneous with the functions of the ADC, it has been decided that these sqns will in future report directly to ADCHQ. In view of these changes it is necessary to restate the organization of 2453 Aircraft Control and Warning Squadron (Auxiliary) (2453 AC&W Sqn (Aux).
