USAG Rheinland-Pfalz’s ‘On
Story and photo by Gabrielle Dillard
U.S. Army Garrison Rheinland-Pfalz Public Affairs volunteer writer/ contributor
Hello! I’m Gabrielle Dillard, a supply technician with the U.S. Army Medical Materiel CenterEurope, based in Kaiserslautern, Germany, working out of Kleber Kaserne. During the workweek, I support our Warfighters and their families by processing and packaging medical supplies in support of United States European Command, United States Africa Command, United States Central Command and even the Department of State!
On weekends, I swap logistics for community storytelling as a volunteer contributor/writer with the U.S. Army Garrison Rheinland-Pfalz Public Affairs Office. I’m excited to share my experiences by attending various events in and around Kaiserslautern and Baumholder to give you a closer look and a fresh take on what’s happening in our military communities.
On Saturday, Nov. 9, for my first writing assignment, I immersed myself into the colorful world of comics, collectibles and cosplay at StrongCon, a comic convention hosted by the Directorate of Family and Morale, Welfare, and Recreation. Held at the Armstrong’s Club on Vogelweh Housing, the event drew hundreds of attendees for a day of fun and creativity.
StrongCon was buzzing with superhero and fantasy fans of every age, and the excitement of connecting with creators, collectors and fellow fans was palatable. The event itself was structured like a flea-market with vendors selling rare comics, art, table-top games, trading cards and even a temporary tattoo station.

Attendees gather at StrongCon, a comic convention hosted by the Directorate of Family and Morale, Welfare, and Recreation. StrongCon was held at the Armstrong’s Club on Vogelweh Housing, Nov. 9. The event drew hundreds of attendees for a day of fun and creativity.
was a treasure trove for all things nerdy! Fantasy writer Rachael Balke was there selling her debut novel, and there were many vendors selling handmade treasures like the crochet creations from Craftie Sammie. Sammie’s subjects ranged from Pokémon plushies to Marvel-inspired hats and lightsaber keychains. I couldn’t resist purchasing some stocking-stuffers for myself, since everything was made with such an eye for detail.
After some shopping, I was pleased to strike up a conversa-
tion with local baseball enthusiast and memorabilia vendor, Mr. Jessie. He explained that his love for American baseball started during his childhood and teenage years when he participated in the sport. After his service in the Army, he now lives in Germany full-time and loves sharing his passion for collectables with others.
One of the highlights for me was the vibrant cosplay scene! Many attendees showcased their creativity through stunning handmade costumes. The StrongCon cosplay
contest drew significant attention, with participants from ages seven and up ready to go all out for prizes. Batman was certainly a showstopper with his detailed attire and flowing cape.
More than 400 people attended the event, including U.S. Army Garrison Rheinland-Pfalz’s Executive Officer, Jason Tudor, who praised the effort MWR put into organizing such a dynamic event.
“StrongCon allows fans of so many kinds of pop culture — anime, collectibles, comics, cosplay,
role-playing, and more — to come together and enjoy a fantastic event right here in our community,” Tudor said. “Events like this foster connections and give people a chance to share their passions in a fun, welcoming environment.”
Where will I head next? Stay tuned for the next “On the go with Gabrielle” adventure!

724th Air Mobility Squadron keeps global missions moving
by 1st Lt. Nathan Roe 521st Air Mobility Operations Wing
The 724th Air Mobility Squadron, based at Aviano Air Base in Italy, plays a critical role in U.S. Air Force operations by ensuring the seamless movement of cargo, personnel, and equipment to support military missions around the world. As an en route station for the Air Mobility Command, the 724 AMS is essential to maintaining the operational readiness of U.S. forces across multiple theaters of operation, including U.S. European Command, U.S. Africa Command, and U.S. Central Command.
“Our mission is unique because we are the only aerial port function at Aviano supporting the AMC mission,” said Maj. Katherine Wilson, commander of the 724th AMS. “We not only support the 31st Fighter Wing’s multiple flying units, and the 173rd Airborne Brigade — the only Europeanbased airborne unit for the Army — but also ensure that everything leaving Aviano is safe to fly and efficiently loaded to maximize available space.”
The 724th AMS is a small but highly capable unit, with 47 assigned members and an authorized force of 50. This relatively small team is responsible for handling on average 19 air and 40 land missions each month. The variance in mission types — from
transporting hazardous materials to supporting high-priority deployments — requires every airman to be highly versatile and adaptable.
“We are manned for 1/24, which means we’re capable of processing and supporting one aircraft at a time in any given 24-hour period,” said SMSgt.
Justin Hatchner, the senior enlisted leader for the 724th AMS. “But in one week, we supported three real-world deployments within USAFE, AFRICOM, and CENTCOM. Our airmen are constantly flexing to ensure mission success, no matter how complex the task.”
The squadron is also at the forefront of innovation, using a
land bridge between Aviano and Ramstein Air Base in Germany to expedite the delivery of household goods and other cargo. This initiative targets cargo initially designated for air transport and diverts it to ground transportation once it arrives in-country, providing significant cost savings in time and money.
“We’ve been able to provide a $300,000 savings per month by reclassing the cargo and using a land bridge,” Wilson said. “This allows us to deliver goods faster to service members and their families, which is a win-win for everyone.”
One of the key elements of the 724th AMS’s success is communication. The squadron works closely with its base partners to ensure mission needs are met. Their ability to coordinate with other units is crucial in supporting Aviano’s dynamic mission set.
“The size of the 724th means that our airmen are trained to handle any kind of cargo that comes through the port,” said Wilson. “From hazardous or sensitive cargo that requires special handling to everyday supplies, we ensure everything is properly processed and transported safely.”
The commitment and dedication of the airmen in the 724th AMS have proven vital to the success of global U.S. military operations. Their ability to adapt to shifting mission demands, and their constant readiness make them a key asset in the Air Force’s strategic airlift capability.
“The hard work of the airmen of the 724th is a testament to our mission,” Hatchner said. “They are always working and present to ensure the job gets done, no matter the challenges. That’s the core of what we do.”

focus areas: academic success, career preparation and community service. With the guidance of adult advisors, Keystone Clubs aim to have a positive impact on members, the Club and the community.
The 2025 Annual National Keystone Conference takes place in Chicago, Illinois, from July 17-20, and is expected to draw
over 1,000 teens and their advisors. However, the journey begins with the Steering Committee Planning Meeting, a core component of the conference that sets the stage for a teen-led, adult-supported experience.
Anderson and Leidheiser will attend the planning meeting at the Boys & Girls Clubs of America
Headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia, from Dec. 5-8.
“In Atlanta, Keandre and Mercedes will join forces with BGCA National Keystone staff and 9 other steering committee members to kick off a 7-month journey to create a 3-day leadership conference for thousands of youths and advisors,” said Flynn. “They’ll be
responsible for building the conference from scratch, from themes to events to a group trip. I’m excited to see what they create!”
According to Flynn, the mission of the 2025 Annual Keystone Conference, which Anderson, Leidheiser and 10 of their peers will shape, is to deliver a world-class leadership experience to thousands of Keystone youth and advisors from traditional and military clubs worldwide.
At the conference in Chicago, attendees will gain insights into the trends shaping their lives and discover new ways to become change agents for positive impact.
Flynn noted that participating in the 2025 National Keystone Conference Steering Committee is a significant boost for the Baumholder Youth Program, providing a lasting impact enabling future endeavors.
“Participating will benefit the Baumholder Youth Program by strengthening our partnership with BGCA, a leader in youth development,” he said. “This partnership provides our youth and staff with access to high-quality experiences, such as the National Keystone Conference, and potentially lead to new opportunities like grants and high-level program participation.
“By showcasing our dedication to youth development, we demonstrate to the community that our programs are of high quality and provide opportunities for our young people to reach their full potential,” Flynn said.
Alaska Guard’s Operation Santa Claus brings Holiday cheer
Story and photo by Senior Master Sgt. Julie Avey 168th Wing Public Affairs
Alaska Army and Air National Guard members and Salvation Army volunteers boarded a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter with Santa Claus Nov. 6 to deliver gifts to the remote village of Circle along the Yukon River.
The event was one of three deliveries this year as the Alaska
Guard and the Salvation Army work to bring Santa’s magic to the farthest corners of Alaska.
“In the 13 years I’ve been with the Yukon Flats school district, I’ve never seen more enthusiasm in the kids,” said John Biafore, Yukon Flats school district principal. “Many of our older students remember when they were young and how it was having Santa come to their homes. The group brought it back again, and it was something the kids needed. This really launched us into an extremely happy holiday season.”
This year marks the 69th iteration of the AKNG’s Operation Santa Claus, spreading holiday cheer across remote Alaskan communities since 1956.
Operation Santa Claus began in the village of St. Mary’s following devastating spring floods and a drought that impacted subsistence activities. The mission was to provide children with essential food and gifts. The village mission in St. Mary’s worked with the Anchorage community to collect donations, and the Alaska Air National Guard delivered the contributions, bringing joy and hope to the community during a difficult time.
Since then, the program has grown into a statewide tradition, delivering toys, books, backpacks, and other holiday surprises to children in rural Alaskan communities. This year, the Alaska National Guard continued its tradition by bringing smiles to the children of Circle, which faced severe flooding in May 2023.
Alaska Air and Army National Guard members teamed up with Salvation Army volunteers as elves. They sorted and wrapped presents at the Salvation Army, ensuring every child on the list had a backpack full of goodies.
“Operation Santa Claus is a
chance to come together as a community and spread the true spirit of Christmas,” said Staff Sgt. Yao Cai, 168th Wing comptroller flight. “I’m glad I had the chance to help Santa pass out the gifts in Circle. It was really nice.”
Chief Master Sgt. Jennifer Beckley and her team from the 168th Wing, Aircrew Flight Equipment, volunteered and wrapped gifts at the Salvation Army. “It’s a great experience to get involved and lend a hand to make the season brighter,” she said. “I’m really glad I was able to get involved.”

Veterinary Treatment Facility hosts Girl Scout Troop
Story and photo by Michelle Thum Public Health Command Europe
Veterinary Treatment Facility
Stuttgart opened their doors to a local Girl Scout Troop for a day to provide the girls an opportunity to gain some insight in the day of a veterinarian.
“A few weeks ago, we received an email from Girl Scout Troop 560, the local Girl Scout Home School Troop, asking if they can visit our Veterinary Treatment Facility,” said veterinarian and officer in charge Capt. Samantha Klett. “It’s exciting to have the kids here so we made it happen.”
The Veterinary Treatment Facility hosted about 10 girls from age 8 to 13.
“We invited our working dog handlers who showed the girls what military working dogs do,” said Klett. “A few of the children hid objects and the dogs found them and the dogs ran through the obstacle course.”
Inside the facility, the children were able to experience different stations like looking at blood drops under the microscope and listen-
ing to their own heartbeat with the stethoscope.
“Scouting is about providing hands-on real-life experiences to
inspire and build confidence, thus the learning stations VTF provided were above and beyond,” said Girl Scout Troop Leader Samantha Skender.
The activities were well received from the girl scouts.
“The girls were the most excited about putting on full gear and
checking out the operations room with their stuffed animals,” said Klett. “Many children want to become a veterinarian when they grow up, so it’s been rewarding to share some insight and expose them to the job.”
Besides the hands-on activities, the VTF staff discussed animal safety and bite prevention.
“It’s important to teach animal safety to kids to prevent accidents and mishaps,” said Klett. “If a child has a better understanding of a pet’s body language, it is more likely to prevent the child getting hurt if the animal is distressed.”
The Stuttgart Veterinary Treatment sees military working dog and privately owned animals from service members and beneficiaries. In addition to day-to-day veterinary tasks, the veterinarians are also responsible for food safety and defense across the footprint.

Public Health Command Europe hosts joint Veterinary Training
Story and photo by Michelle Thum Public Health Command Europe
Public Health Command
Europe hosted a five-day training event for U.S. Army and international veterinarians to build partnerships and exchange veterinary expertise from Nov. 19-22.
Around 30 veterinarians from the U.S. Army, Germany and Poland participated in the annual European Military Veterinary Short Course held by Public Health Command Europe’s Veterinary Services Division.
The five-day course provides 40 total hours of education, training and exposure related to Department of Defense veterinary clinical and development mission requirements.
“The goal of this training is providing the Continuing Education credits required of our veterinary licenses, improving the clinical skills of Veterinary Corps Officers especially given our small teams and remote locations within EUCOM and CENTCOM supporting Military Working Dogs and Privately Owned Animals, and facilitating hands on training for critical clinical tasks,”said Lt. Col. Diane Collette, Regional Veterinary Clinical Consultant at Public
Health Command Europe.
The training brings veterinarians from across Europe together and highlights the importance of partnerships.
“It is great to meet our counterparts and to train alongside them,” said 2nd Lt. Weronika Zawadka from the Polish Military Preventive Medicine Center. “Knowing your counterparts and exchanging knowledge before the worst case
takes place is beneficial and an ease of mind.”
In addition to lectures and question and answer sessions, one day was held at Veterinary Medical Center Europe the Army's forwarddeployed Role 3 medical and surgical center for Military Working Dogs.
The veterinarians rotated through different stations such as sutures, constant rate infusions,
familiarization with equipment, dental work and ultrasound.
“This is my first time participating in the course and I truly enjoyed chatting with the veterinarians from the U.S. Army,” said Major Beate Schramm, Bundeswehr School of Dog Handling in Ulmen, Germany. “We all work in the same field but sometimes things are taught differently so having a chance to
explore the techniques from different countries was great.”
According to Schramm, the hands-on dental portion was very beneficial too.
“We go through dentistry in veterinary school but in the Bundeswehr, I’m not doing them as frequent,” said Schramm. “Having a veterinary dentist here to explain things thoroughly or show us some tips was phenomenal.”
Military health expert explains how strength is relative to body weight
by V. Hauschild, MPH Defense Centers for Public HealthAberdeen Public Affairs
The military monitors its service members’ fitness levels to ensure combat physical readiness and minimize loss of personnel to injury.
Each military service selects its physical fitness tests to meet its unique mission needs. All services’ fitness tests include measures of aerobic fitness, such as a timed run, and muscular health, such as the push-up. Depending on the service, the fitness test can include sprinting, carrying weighted items, or deadlifts.
Strength is relative
A 2024 study published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Researchtudy published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research by the Defense Health Agency-Public Health Injury Prevention Branch in Aberdeen, Maryland, highlights the importance of muscular strength relative to a person’s body weight in predicting physical performance.
“Public health investigations have shown that military physical fitness tests provide insights into key components of physical performance and injury risk,” says Tyson Grier, a health scientist at DHA-PH and lead author of the study.
In 2022, the U.S. Army changed its fitness test from the threeevent Army Physical Fitness Test to the six-event Army Combat Fitness TestArmy Combat Fitness Test, or ACFT. This was the first change to the Army’s testArticle on Army. mil in 42 years. The ACFT includes six events ranging from muscular strength, endurance, and power to anaerobic and aerobic fitness.
The absolute amount of weight deadlifted, known as raw strength, is not the only measure of strength. Grier notes that accounting for an individual’s body weight appears to be especially useful in predicting physical fitness.
“Relative strength, which factors in a person’s body weight, is important because it represents
an individual’s ability to control and move their body,” says Grier. “To calculate relative strength from the deadlift, you divide the amount of weight deadlifted by your body weight. For example, if you deadlift 300 pounds and weigh 200 pounds, you would have deadlifted 1.5 times your body weight.”
Grier’s investigation showed that by adjusting the deadlift results to relative strength, greater relative strength was associated with higher physical performance. Men deadlifting ≥1.5 times their body weight and women deadlifting ≥1.25 times their body weight outperformed those with lower relative strength (within their own sex) on all ACFT events.
What strength training is recommended?
According to the Physical Activity Guidelines for AmericansCurrent Guidelines on Health.gov, adults should engage in at least 150–300 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity a week. In addition, individuals should do muscle-strengthening activities, of moderate- or greaterintensity muscle-strengthening activities that involve all major muscle groups (legs, hips, back, abdomen, chest, shoulders, and arms) two or more days a week.
Muscle-strengthening activities include free weights, resistance machines, push-ups, and exercises with bands. For injury prevention and technique tips for common weight-lifting exercises, see the deadliftarticle on
deadlift injuries, squatArticle on squat injuries, and bench pressArticle on bench press injuries factsheets available in the DHA-PH resource library. Ideally, a certified trainer will help develop specific individual exercise plans or group plans that are modifiable by fitness level. In general, Grier recommends the following based on the American College of Sports Medicine guidance:
• For each major muscle group, aim to do two-to-three sets of eight–12 repetitions, or “reps,” with good form.
• The last rep should be difficult.
• Increase weight slowly over time so the effort feels like an eight of out 10 (where 0 is no effort and 10 is your maximum effort).
Are there benefits for strength training aside from meeting military standards?

ABC IN KMC: December
by Gina Hutchins-Inman 86th Airlift Wing Public Affairs
Welcome to the tenth month of the year! What, the tenth month?
Have you ever wondered why December is sometimes referred to as the tenth month, while in our understanding it is the last of twelve? Let’s dig into history and solve this riddle. Its name is derived from the Latin word “decem” which means tenth. A similar pattern is true for the months of September, October and November (septem, octo, novem).
However, did you know that the months have fascinating origins and come from a mixture of Greek and Roman deities and Roman rulers?
In ancient Rome, the new year didn’t always begin in January as it does today. The Roman calendar initially had a 304-day year starting in March (Martius), which was named after the god Mars and traditionally military campaigns commenced at this time. Since March was the first official month of the year, followed by April and May, the remaining months were numbered from five to ten.
The year then continued until Decembris which was the harvest time in Rome with mild weather.
Saturnalia, a festival honoring god Saturn began on Dec. 17 and was originally a one-day celebration. It then expanded to a week-long event lasting until Dec. 24. The festival was marked by unique customs and traditions, for example with public sacrifices and banquets.
Social norms also temporar-
the winter months, meaning the remaining 61 days, as being less important and simply didn’t give them any names.
In the year 46 before Christ, Emperor Julius Caeser sought advice from astronomers and mathematicians to create a new calendar based on the sun, rather than on a lunar system. He
The other months mainly kept their names, April (Aprilius) stems from “aperio” meaning to open and reflecting the buds of spring. May (Maius) is named after Maia, the Greek goddess of fields, while June (Junius) was dedicated to Juno, the goddess of light and childbirth.
Julius then chose to name the
ily overturned during the festival in which slaves gained temporary freedom and masters would serve them at the table. Overall, it became a time of equality and liberty. People also exchanged gifts and gambling, normally prohibited, was permitted during this time. The festival was filled with feasting, singing, music and lots of fun.
After the end of Saturnalia, the year was basically over, and Romans must have considered
brought about a reform and the result was the Julian calendar in which the civil, but not spiritual, year officially began on Jan 1.
As a result, the two missing months had to be named and were chosen as follows:
January (Januarius) was named after Janus, the Roman god of beginnings and transitions. February (Februa) is derived from an ancient festival dedicated to ritual springtime cleaning and washing.
next month July (Julius) after himself and August (Augustus) after his favorite great-nephew, who became emperor and is also linked to founding the city of Trier (Augusta Treverorum) at an initially Celtic settlement.
The remaining months stayed the same as Septembris, the seventh; Octobris, the eighth; Novembris the ninth and Decembris, the tenth month of the year.
By the Middle Ages the church discovered that there was a dis-
crepancy in the Julian calendar, in such that it was off by 11 minutes a year and every 128 years, the calendar produced one day too many. Thus, by 1582 the calendar was off by 13 days and what was considered Jan. 13 was, in fact, Jan. 1. In October 1582 a new calendar was introduced as a modification, with an extra day every four years (commonly known as leap year) and named after Pope Gregory XIII (Gregorian calendar).
Let us embrace the “tenth” month of the year with very similar sounding names in various languages: Dezember in German, Diciembre in Spanish, Dicembre in Italian, Décembre in French, December in Swedish, Desember in Norwegian, December in Dutch and even Dasamber in Pashtu.
Enjoy the month with colorful markets, the hustle and bustle of the season and maybe even a bit of relaxation towards the end after a busy year.
A fun fact at the end: Romans left even more traces that are still apparent in our modern-day life and language. Our solar system with its planets is also named after Roman gods: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus und Neptun. Our planet was sometimes lovingly referred to as “Terra Mater” (mother earth) or simply as “Globus” (sphere).

Imagine stepping into a cozy, unassuming dining room in Modena, Italy, only to be served dishes crafted by one of the greatest culinary minds in the world. This is Osteria Francescana, helmed by the legendary Chef Massimo Bottura. If you’ve seen him on the Netflix documentary Chef’s Table (Season 1, Episode 1), you already have a glimpse of his passion and creativity. Ranked as the number one restaurant in the world, this threeMichelin-starred gem delivers an unforgettable experience — surprisingly accessible and, dare I say, even affordable for what it offers.
Getting a table at Osteria Francescana: Luck meets planning
Reservations at Osteria Francescana are notoriously difficult to secure, often requiring a six-month wait. But sometimes, luck can intervene. While vacationing in Modena, I checked the website on a whim and found a lunch cancellation. Without hesitation, I grabbed it. (Pro tip: Aim for lunch instead of dinner — the menu is identical, and the competition for spots can be slightly less fierce.)
Walking into the restaurant, I was struck by its unassuming entrance: a simple gold sign reading “Osteria Francescana” on a quiet side street. Despite its accolades, the atmosphere is refreshingly relaxed. The casual dress code was a relief — I wore jeans, sneakers, and a buttondown shirt.
The service was impeccable yet approachable. Over the course of the meal, no fewer than eight staff members attended to us, including the sommelier. They were warm, engaging, and even playful. Chef Massimo Bottura himself sets this tone, encouraging his team to make the experience enjoyable, not intimidating.
The Meal: Art on a plate
Let’s address the obvious first: every dish was utterly phenomenal. The balance of flavors — sweet, sour, spicy, salty — was nothing short of perfection. Across the 14 courses, there wasn’t a single dish that disappointed. Each bite left me eagerly anticipating the next.
But what truly set this experience apart wasn’t just the taste; it was the stories behind the dishes. Each plate felt like a
chapter in a narrative, designed to provoke thought and spark emotion. Here were two of my favorites:
“The Po River is drying up”
One standout dish was a delicate piece of white fish served in a minimal broth that barely lined the bottom of the bowl, evoking the image of a dried-up riverbed. The bowl’s design featured rings resembling those left behind by receding water. This was not just a meal—it was a message about climate change and the dwindling Po River, historically fed by snowmelt from the Alps.
“The smog of Italy in winter”
Another unforgettable course was titled “The Smog of Italy in Winter,” a poignant commentary on industrial pollution in northern Italy. The dish arrived covered with an acrylic lid, which, when lifted, released a smoky vapor reminiscent of the region’s winter air. As someone who has experienced both the smoggy winters and clear skies of other seasons in Modena, the dish felt deeply personal and resonant.
The Aftermath: A dinner to remember It’s hard to articulate how this experience made me feel. I’ve had thousands of meals in my lifetime, and while I can recall some truly memorable ones, none compare to this. Osteria Francescana is not just a meal — it’s a story, an artwork, a dialogue about the world we live in.
Modena itself is worth a visit, with its charm and lack of overwhelming tourist crowds. But adding Osteria Francescana to your itinerary transforms the trip into something extraordinary.
At around €500 per person, including wine pairings, the experience is not cheap — but when you consider it’s the best restaurant in the world, it feels like a steal. It’s a chance to have a story you’ll share for the rest of your life.
So, if you ever find yourself within driving distance, perhaps cruising down the Autobahn or Autostrada, seize the moment. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and you won’t regret it.
