DCC President and CEO James Paul made his first visit to 1 Canadian Air Division headquarters at CFB Winnipeg on July 20, 2010. During the visit, Mr. Paul presented the Friends of DCC Award to Colonel Raymond Baker and LCol G.J.J. Gergely.

The Friends of DCC Award highlights the contributions of persons or groups who have a recognized working relationship with DCC, who have collaborated on projects that have resulted in mutual success, and that demonstrate characteristics that make them a valuable partner. Col Baker and LCol Gergely were presented with this honour for their work to develop A4 CE Infra, which has grown into a resource that is respected and known for its innovation and accomplishments and has executed a very demanding construction program over the last three years.

The ceremony also included the presentation by Colonel Baker of the A4 CE Director’s Coin to Lynda Lenfesty, DCC Manager, Business Operations, Western Region, as a token of appreciation for the collaboration between the two organizations. This was the first time the coin was presented to an individual outside of the military.
