know it’s hard to tell that spring is upon us, with the crazy weather we’ve had lately, but if you’ve also noticed, the trees are starting to burst with pink and white blossoms and spring bulbs are poking their heads through the soil once again.

One of the spring flowers that I find the most admirable is the dandelion. Their cheery yellow and white faces remind us that life continues moving forward, even after difficult seasons. I think this is why they are considered the official

flower of the military child.

Military children emerge from childhood without traditional roots planted firmly in an area of extended family and familiar surroundings, but they will have roots that are far-reaching and strongly anchored. They bloom wherever the winds (or skies) take them, and they survive in a broad range of climates.

Military children are eager, strong, and resilient…just like dandelions. Thank you to all the “dandelions” here at RAF Lakenheath!

We continue our series discussing techniques for implementing the 4 P's principle: placement, position, pressure and practice ow the hands are positioned on the club can affect the clubface direction at impact, which influences the direction of the shot. To achieve the correct position, we suggest placing your left hand (which is your top hand) on the golf club. Once your hand is positioned, look out of your left eye to see if you can see two knuckles on your left hand. If you can see your two knuckles on your left hand, you have achieved a suitable starting position for your top hand.

If you position your right hand on the club most golf grips will have a manufacturer's logo at the bottom.

Allow the thumb on your right hand to go left of the top letter on the golf grip; assuring all fingers and thumbs are attached to the club.

This television show is absolutely

amazing! Some parts of the storyline will have you crying like a baby. The show is based on an idea of a genius doctor with autism finding it difficult having proper social relationships with people. Unlike most medical television shows, this one lets you see inside the mind of a doctor with autism. You experience how he ventures into a fast paced career field while trying to prove to people he can do exactly what they can do….maybe even better. The Good Doctor goes against the odds, immediately capturing the moments for the viewers.
