Atlantic Fleet Sailor of the Year<\/b><\/h3>\n

MS Steven Lannon earns top leadership award<\/i><\/p>\n

Par Joanie Veitch,
\n<\/b>\u00c9quipe du trident<\/p>\n

Master Sailor Steven Lannon likes to keep things light, joking around and enjoying a laugh with the other sailors on board ship, but when it\u2019s time for serious work, he\u2019s always ready for a challenge.<\/p>\n

That spirit of leadership and willingness to consistently go above and beyond his regular duties has earned MS Lannon the Atlantic Fleet\u2019s Sailor of the Year award, which he received at Tribute Tower on June 23 \u2014 in Mr. Mac\u2019s Room \u2014 with Commodore Richard Feltham, Commander Canadian Fleet Atlantic (CANFLTLANT), and Fleet Chief CP01 Darcy Burd presenting.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are blessed with extraordinary people in our fleet. We have the best and the brightest Canada has to offer,\u201d Cmdre Feltham said. \u201cTo have been chosen as the best of all that group is significant, it really is significant.\u201d<\/p>\n

When MS Lannon, who began his career with the Navy in 2009 as a Hull Technician, now a Marine Technician (MARTECH), joined the crew of HMCS St. John\u2019s<\/i> in June 2020, the ship was getting ready for an extended maintenance period. This required a complete de-storing of the ship and total crew swap to HMCS en<\/i> \u2014 all during strict COVID-19 protocols.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo meet the restrictions, we went in after hours and worked late nights. It was a hard time but we did a lot of check-ins to make sure everyone was doing ok,\u201d said MS Lannon.<\/p>\n

As the crew worked to get en<\/i> ready for the multinational Operation NANOOK 20 happening in the Eastern Arctic in early August, to be followed by the UK-led Exercise JOINT WARRIOR in October, the ship\u2019s command team hit a major snag. The senior firefighter on the ship \u2014 usually a job held by a Petty Officer, Second Class \u2014 was unable to sail.<\/p>\n

Without someone in the senior firefighting position, the ship didn\u2019t have a coordinator for the vital role of helicopter crash rescue firefighting (HCRFF) on board ship.<\/p>\n

While MS Lannon had the full HCRFF training, to be able to take on that operational role and enable HMCS en <\/i>to take part in the upcoming exercises, he needed to recertify immediately.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had to step up into that role to enable the ship to be capable for flight ops. It was a big responsibility but I was able to take on the challenge,\u201d said MS Lannon.<\/p>\n

Accepting his award, MS Lannon gave credit as well to his co-workers in the Marine Systems Engineers (MSE) department for their hard work, saying he wouldn\u2019t have been able to take on the extra responsibility without their support.<\/p>\n

Now, with COVID-19 restrictions beginning to lift, MS Lannon hopes to get home to Paradise, NL for the first time in a year and a half with his wife Kimberley, who works at the IWK Health Centre, and their two-year-old son Liam.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s also looking forward to spending time at home and keeping busy with projects around the house. Three years ago MS Lannon and his wife built a house in Brookside; he said he loves spending his time off doing yard work and just being outdoors.<\/p>\n

\u201cI like to challenge myself,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen I get a job done, I feel a great sense of accomplishment. It\u2019s just good to keep busy.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
