Thomas \u00ab Keith \u00bb Griffin a servi dans la marine royale canadienne de 1958 \u00e0 1981, avant de poursuivre sa carri\u00e8re en tant que r\u00e9serviste et de prendre sa retraite en 1991. SOUMIS

Thomas \u00ab Keith \u00bb Griffin est n\u00e9 le 29 juillet 1937 \u00e0 Winnipeg, au Manitoba. Griffin s'est joint \u00e0 la R\u00e9serve navale, au Corps du NCSM Chippawa, \u00e0 Winnipeg, en 1954, et a servi en mer \u00e0 bord du NCSM Kentville et du NCSM Athabaskan. En juillet 1958, il s'est joint \u00e0 la Force r\u00e9guli\u00e8re de la Marine royale du Canada. C'est le d\u00e9but d'une longue et brillante carri\u00e8re.<\/p>\n

\u00ab Griff \u00bb, comme on l'appelait toujours, a d'abord servi sur des destroyers canadiens, mais en 1962, il a \u00e9t\u00e9 pr\u00eat\u00e9 \u00e0 la Marine royale britannique pour servir et apprendre tout ce qu'il y a \u00e0 savoir sur les sous-marins. Du 9 f\u00e9vrier 1962 au 21 juin 1968, il a servi \u00e0 bord de quatre sous-marins de la Royal Navy, le HMS Aurochs<\/i>, le HMS Andres<\/i>, le HMS Opossum<\/i> et le HMS Orpheus. <\/i>M. Griffin a pass\u00e9 866 jours en mer \u00e0 bord de ces sous-marins britanniques. Apr\u00e8s cinq ans, il est retourn\u00e9 dans la Marine royale du Canada, o\u00f9 il a servi sur les NCSM Onondaga, <\/i>Le NCSM et NCSM Ojibwa <\/i>en de temps de mer <\/i>en tant que technicien maritime\/artificier de salle des machines \u00e0 bord de ces sous-marins qui faisaient la fiert\u00e9 de la Marine canadienne \u00e0 l'\u00e9poque.<\/p>\n

Voici une br\u00e8ve histoire du service sous-marin canadien : Le 5 ao\u00fbt 1914, le Canada ach\u00e8te ses deux premiers sous-marins \u00e0 un chantier naval de Seattle, aux \u00c9tats-Unis, au d\u00e9but de la Premi\u00e8re Guerre mondiale. Les sous-marins ont \u00e9t\u00e9 achet\u00e9s par le premier ministre de la Colombie-Britannique, Richard McBride, et ont \u00e9t\u00e9 baptis\u00e9s les navires canadiens de Sa Majest\u00e9 CC-1 et CC-2.<\/p>\n

En 109 ans, la Marine royale canadienne a mis en service 15 sous-marins. Au d\u00e9but, il n'y avait que 20 officiers et marins \u00e0 bord de ces premiers sous-marins. Puis, de 1965 \u00e0 2000, 65 officiers et marins se sont succ\u00e9d\u00e9 \u00e0 bord de nos sous-marins. Nos quatre sous-marins actuels sont le NCSM Victoria, <\/i>Le NCSM Windsor, <\/i>Le NCSM Corner Brook <\/i>en Chicoutimi, <\/i>et ils transportent chacun un effectif de 48 officiers et marins.<\/p>\n

Les sous-marins de M. Griffin - les NCSM Ojibwa, Onondaga <\/i>et Okanagan - <\/i>\u00e9taient appel\u00e9s la classe Oberon <\/i>ou les grands \u00ab O \u00bb. Ils sont propuls\u00e9s par un syst\u00e8me diesel-\u00e9lectrique \u00e0 deux arbres et poss\u00e8dent chacun deux moteurs diesel ASR-1 \u00e0 16 cylindres, avec un rayon d'action de 17 000 kilom\u00e8tres<\/p>\n

Ces sous-marins ont \u00e9t\u00e9 construits \u00e0 Great Breton dans les chantiers navals royaux de Sa Majest\u00e9 \u00e0 Chatham, dans le Kent, au sud-est de l'Angleterre. Ils sont arriv\u00e9s au Canada au milieu des ann\u00e9es 1960 et comptaient parmi les sous-marins les plus silencieux au monde. Ces sous-marins formaient le premier escadron de sous-marins canadien bas\u00e9 \u00e0 Halifax, la 6e division sous-marine, et leurs noms ont \u00e9t\u00e9 choisis en l'honneur de plusieurs communaut\u00e9s des Premi\u00e8res nations. \u00c0 Halifax, ces sous-marins \u00e9taient destin\u00e9s \u00e0 contrer les adversaires pr\u00e9sum\u00e9s de l'Union sovi\u00e9tique pendant la guerre froide. La plupart du temps, ils effectuaient des missions tr\u00e8s secr\u00e8tes. Un voyage en mer pouvait durer d'une semaine \u00e0 pr\u00e8s de trois mois. Lors de ces longs voyages, ils devaient rentrer au port pour se ravitailler en carburant et en mat\u00e9riel, et permettre aux officiers et \u00e0 l'\u00e9quipage de se reposer et de se d\u00e9tendre.<\/p>\n

Comme indiqu\u00e9 pr\u00e9c\u00e9demment, Keith Griffin faisait partie de l'\u00e9quipe de la salle des machines, compos\u00e9e de 17 marins. Ces 17 marins dormaient tous \u00e0 l'arri\u00e8re du sous-marin dans le m\u00eame petit espace et mangeaient ensemble. Ils s'occupaient des moteurs principaux et des g\u00e9n\u00e9rateurs \u00e9lectriques, tandis que \u00ab Griff \u00bb s'occupait \u00e9galement du mat\u00e9riel de rechange et des pi\u00e8ces d\u00e9tach\u00e9es des machines, qui \u00e9taient stock\u00e9s un peu partout dans le sous-marin. Le travail de l'\u00e9quipe de la salle des machines ne s'arr\u00eatait jamais, m\u00eame lorsque le sous-marin \u00e9tait \u00e0 quai.<\/p>\n

L' Oberon <\/i>avaient une grosse bulle \u00e0 l'avant du sous-marin et c'est l\u00e0 que se trouvait le sonar. Une autre caract\u00e9ristique de ces sous-marins \u00e9tait qu'ils pouvaient plonger jusqu'\u00e0 une profondeur de 700 pieds et plus, et qu'ils excellaient dans la course silencieuse. Ils pouvaient \u00e9galement rester sous la glace pendant de longues p\u00e9riodes dans les eaux froides.<\/p>\n

Lors des longs voyages, ces sous-marins et leur \u00e9quipage \u00e9taient constamment en danger en raison du travail qu'ils accomplissaient. Lors d'une longue navigation, le sous-marin de M. Griffin est rest\u00e9 sept jours sous la glace de la calotte glaciaire du Groenland, parfois appel\u00e9e \u00ab la br\u00e8che \u00bb.<\/p>\n

Le meilleur ami de Keith Griffin \u00e0 bord des sous-marins et pendant de nombreuses ann\u00e9es par la suite \u00e9tait le matelot de 1re classe Donald Henry \u00ab Buster \u00bb Brown, MMM, CD. Buster a gravi les \u00e9chelons et, en 1989, il a \u00e9t\u00e9 nomm\u00e9 \u00e0 l'\u00e9tat-major de l'amiral \u00e0 Halifax, o\u00f9 il a \u00e9t\u00e9 promu au poste de premier ma\u00eetre du commandement maritime, poste qu'il a occup\u00e9 jusqu'\u00e0 sa retraite de la Marine royale du Canada. En 2001, Buster Brown a \u00e9t\u00e9 attir\u00e9 par le milieu hollywoodien o\u00f9 il a travaill\u00e9 comme conseiller technique en mati\u00e8re de sous-marins pour le film K-19 The Widowmaker avec Harrison Ford. Donald \u00ab Buster \u00bb Brown est d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 le 11 avril 2020 et manque cruellement \u00e0 M. Keith Griffin.<\/p>\n

M. Griffin a \u00e9t\u00e9 honor\u00e9 \u00e0 de nombreuses reprises lorsqu'il servait \u00e0 bord des sous-marins Oberon <\/i>Parmi les honneurs qui lui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 rendus, mentionnons le \u00ab franchissement de l'\u00e9quateur \u00bb, c\u00e9r\u00e9monie organis\u00e9e par le roi Neptune, un certificat de proclamation pour le cercle arctique alors qu'il \u00e9tait \u00e0 bord du NCSM Margaree <\/i>le 17 avril 1977, et de nouveau \u00e0 bord du NCSM Huron <\/i>le 21 juillet 1978, ce qui lui a valu l'honneur d'\u00eatre d\u00e9clar\u00e9 membre de notre Numb Friends League (branche du Nord). En tant que matelot de premi\u00e8re classe, Griffin a re\u00e7u un certificat du NCSM Onondaga, <\/i>indiquant qu'il avait re\u00e7u le dernier \u00ab tot \u00bb de rhum de l'\u00e9quipage le 30 mars 1972.<\/p>\n

Au cours de son long service naval, M. Griffin a pass\u00e9 2 454 jours en mer entre le 25 juin 1954 et le 29 juillet 1979. Keith a pris sa retraite de la Marine royale du Canada en juillet 1981 et de la R\u00e9serve en juillet 1991 au grade de ma\u00eetre de 1re classe.<\/p>\n

M. Griffin a accompli de nombreuses autres grandes choses dans sa vie civile, qui sont trop nombreuses pour \u00eatre mentionn\u00e9es ici. Il est mari\u00e9 depuis plus de 50 ans \u00e0 Mme Marilyn Campbell-Griffin, de \u00ab Mulgrave Row \u00bb, Stellarton (Nouvelle-\u00c9cosse). La derni\u00e8re question que je lui ai pos\u00e9e est la suivante : \u00ab Le referiez-vous si vous en aviez l'occasion ? \u00bb<\/p>\n

Il a r\u00e9pondu : \u00ab Oui, mais je ferais les choses diff\u00e9remment. Voyez-vous, dans le service sous-marin, il \u00e9tait tr\u00e8s difficile de monter en grade parce qu'il n'y avait que quelques membres d'\u00e9quipage \u00e0 bord du sous-marin, et pour monter en grade, il fallait qu'un membre d'\u00e9quipage prenne sa retraite ou qu'il d\u00e9c\u00e8de. Et n'oubliez pas que nous avions tous \u00e0 peu pr\u00e8s le m\u00eame \u00e2ge. Mais ne vous m\u00e9prenez pas, je suis tr\u00e8s fier d'avoir servi le Canada ! \u00bb<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
