Members of the 4th Air Support Operations Group participated in a combined close air support exercise, known as SerpentEx, Dec. 1 to 13 in Corsica, France, hosted by the French air force. The exercise focused on testing air-land integration elements including close air support aircrews, forward air controllers and joint terminal attack controllers. JTACs are highly skilled specialists imbedded with Army and Marine combat units and are trained to coordinate with the ground unit’s commander to properly call in air and artillery strikes during ground-based combat operations. “The over arching theme of the exercise was counter insurgency operations, which mirrors current missions we are involved in,” said Staff Sgt. Stephen Thomas, 2nd Air Support Operations Squadron JTAC instructor. Nine allied nations, along with 27 CAS-capable fighter aircraft and 32 terminal attack controller teams took part in the exercise. This coalition exercise gave the 435th AGOW service members the unique opportunity to train alongside many different nations. “It’s interesting and impressive working alongside so many allied nations,” Thomas said. “This exercise allowed us to broaden our close air support execution perspective through combined

Airmen volunteer to support Army humanitarian assistance program by Doris Crittenden U.S. Army Medical Materiel Center Europe PIRMASENS, Germany — When medical equipment for U.S. Army Medical Materiel Center Europe’s humanitarian assistance program needs to be cleaned, inspected and prepared for shipment, Airmen from the 86th Medical Group volunteered for the job. The group came to USAMMCE headquarters, located at a U.S. Army Garrison Rheinland-Pfalz installation in Pirmasens, on Saturdays to get the work done. They began volunteering in March 2012. Since then, they prepared 483 pieces of medical equipment valued at $4.2 million in support of the humanitarian missions to Georgia, Ukraine and Uzbekistan. Some equipment also supported U.S. Africa Command projects.
Recently, a group of 20 volunteers took part, including biomedical engineers, medical logisticians and personnel from other medical specialties, said Luis DeAndrade, who leads USAMMCE’s humanitarian assistance program. Five were on temporary assignment at Ramstein. They inspected and prepared 121 pieces of medical equipment and prepared 15 gurneys, $775,000 of aid for this year’s Operation Provide Hope mission to Tbilisi, Georgia. The shipment will also support “A Call to Serve,” or ACTS, a nongovernmental organization in Georgia. “We are preparing as much materiel as possible for shipment to the countries the program supports,” said DeAndrade, adding See VOLUNTEER, Page 3

Force management and you by Gen. Frank Gorenc U.S. Air Forces in Europe and Air Forces Africa commander
T
he chief of staff’s announcement concerning force management programs should have caught your attention, because it could affect your status in next year’s Air Force. The Air Force will become smaller, and that means some of you reading this will have important
decisions to make very soon. That is why both voluntary and involuntary programs have been announced at the same time — in order to give you and your families as much time as possible to think deeply and decide wisely about your next steps. I can tell you with certainty the Air Force will keep its high performing Airmen, which means your job performance matters. The wise Airman will review records and make progress in mili-
tary and civilian education opportunities. I have seen 34 years of constant change in the Air Force, and these reductions come as no surprise. We are no longer in Iraq and are winding down in Afghanistan. The nation is going through fiscal uncertainty, and the Department of Defense will be part of the solution. That solution means a leaner force, which brings us to this point in your career. As we implement the force man-
Imagine hope by José (surname withheld) U.S. Air Forces in Europe and Air Forces Africa
My name is not José. Steve asked me not to use our real names if I write down what I recently learned about the events of 2002. He’s not “Steve,” either. Steve agreed to share his part, and I will tell you mine — our two sides of one story. What follows is our recollections of then and now. José: Steve and I used to play one of those multiplayer online games when they were just becoming popular. I was at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base; he was at Aviano Air Base. We chatted online through the game interface almost daily when our duty schedules allowed. The time difference meant not many players were online when we overlapped, so we just texted for hours. There were times when our real life, “RL” as we called it, was all we’d talk about. The game was just the place to catch up on the latest going on in bella Italia or sunny Dayton, Ohio.
unhappy. I was bottoming out. My seven-year Air Force career was the only thing in my life that seemed solid; the ops tempo was crazy after 9/11. A year later, when things started to settle down in mid 2002, we got into a new rhythm. As the pace changed, the demands of the job faded into a “new normal.” All the problems piling up were pushing back into the center stage. All the things I didn’t want to deal with because of the pain could not be ignored. I think I was depressed. José: I knew Steve was upset sometimes, as he often vented about his day or his week. We all did. Then he’d feel bad, like he was griping too much. I’d tell him, “No, man, that’s what friends are for. Tell me.” So he did. Then one day he was online, but didn’t feel like talking. It seemed strange. So we joined a larger group of players and found some battle to fight. I knew I could circle back later and ask him what was wrong. I remember thinking that his dad dying earlier that year was probably still on his mind.
Steve: In late 2002, I wasn’t just

more than a few moments at a time. Those painful burdens with no resolution continued to mount; nothing made the days brighter. I think if I had just been stressed out, at least some of the good things in my life would have made me feel better. They didn’t. Nothing made me feel better. The pain that settled over me, marital troubles and losing my father to cancer, among other things, made all the good things in my life seem irrelevant. I felt numb. There were times I would just sit still and catch myself forgetting to inhale. I had to remind myself to breathe. Early one week I checked my blood pressure, and the diastolic was about 20 points above the threshold considered “high.” Even that I didn’t care about. I was numb all the way to my core. I couldn’t imagine what hope was any more. Then one day I started making a plan in my mind. I felt good, for a change — the pain would soon be over. José: We kept adventuring over a week or so, and it still bothered me that Steve wasn’t messaging as much as usual. As Friday rolled into Saturday and Sunday, the main com-

bat game zones got overcrowded, and we reverted back to message chatting instead of straight-up gaming. After several hours, Steve told me how low he was feeling and asked me what I would do in his place. I never lost a family member; I didn’t know what to tell him. I thought of telling him how time heals everything; just give it long enough and everything gets better. It felt like an empty promise even as I typed it. I sent it anyway. Then I listened for a while. He had much more to say once I made it clear I didn’t think it was our place to judge each other. “I got your back, bro,” I told him.

Senate confirms James as next secretary of Air Force WASHINGTON — Deborah Lee James will be the next secretary of the Air Force, according to a Senate confirmation vote Dec 13. James provided testimony to the Senate Armed Services Committee Sept. 19, before the full Senate voted on her confirmation. Now, the president must appoint her before she can assume her new position. “I view this opportunity as the privilege and an honor of a lifetime. I will work very hard to ensure that I live up to what is an enormous amount of trust that may be placed in me,” said James during her confirmation hearing. “My goal would be to leave our Air Force some years from

mission planning and execution. It was impressive because besides the Canadian, United Kingdom and U.S. forces, the other participants conducted the entire exercise in English. “The FAC and JTAC community is relatively small and international exercises like this one provide a great opportunity to build partnerships in a training environment,” he added. “Chances are we will work with each other again downrange in an allied conflict response.” Not only did Ramstein’s 435th AGOW support the exercise with JTACs, but the exercise also provided intelligence personnel with an invaluable opportunity to build partnerships with combined forces members as well. “I learned a lot about the coordination that is completed between the Air Support Operation Center, aircrews and JTACs and FACs on the ground,” said Staff Sgt. Hailey Sundberg, 2nd ASOS procedural controller. “The best part was integrating with the UK ASOC and learning from their experienced crew members, as well as the French and Canadian members on the team. Our counterparts played a vital role in the exercise and helped us broaden our current techniques, tactics and procedures.” The 4th ASOG has participated in SerpentEx since 2009, learning many lessons along the way. “As far as intelligence and close air support training goes, SerpentEx is regarded as a top notch exercise in the European Theater,” said Capt. Sarah Fortin, 4th ASOG chief of operations and air liaison officer. “As long as we are allocated funding to maintain the control currencies of our JTACs, participating in SerpentEx should definitely remain a high priority, especially considering the complexity of its joint close air support training objectives and invaluable lessons learned.”

end. He didn’t tell me how to feel and didn’t advise me on all the things I needed to do or not do. He didn’t try to manage my life from 10,000 miles away, and he didn’t log off until I had talked it all out. I didn’t tell him then that I changed my mind about killing myself that day. I let him know in the summer of 2013. José: So, Steve lays this on me when we were chatting a couple months ago. I was completely blown away. Even though the man had the courage to share his pain, and even though that is now safely in the past, it scared the s**t out of me. I couldn’t sleep. My wife once told me, ‘Sometimes the only way out of something is through it.” Thinking about 2002, I think that’s what Steve was doing — he was going through it to get to the other side. He didn’t have a magic wand to make it better, and he didn’t feel comfortable going to a chaplain or mental health, though I’m sure he knew they were there for him. I don’t know if I was the second or the seventh person he reached out to in his personal life, but it freaks me out that he was close to doing something bad to himself. Steve: I haven’t talked about this much — no one’s proud to admit life got the better of them. I wanted to end it. I wanted to die. José listened, occasionally asking questions to gently challenge my one-track mindset. It made me realize I hadn’t considered other perspectives. I was locked on the one “escape” from all life’s problems that seemed the most obvious answer at the time. Talking through a computer chat interface meant he couldn’t hear my voice or see my expressions, but he noticed things were off. He didn’t ignore that difference, and that made all the difference. My wife and our two young children, though they don’t know the details, appreciate that he listened that weekend, too. As we roll into the holidays, I’m thankful. After many years, that pain of 2002 is mostly gone, and I am alive.

Holiday traveling: Stay vigilant As we know, people are the Air Force’s most vital resource. As recent events have shown, terrorists will continue to modify their tactics in an attempt to be unpredictable. We must remain diligent in our efforts to ensure the safety of our people. Your overall awareness will not only help to protect your family, but will also increase the security of all members in our community. With regards to the holiday season, utilize situational
awareness and be cognizant of solicitation attempts from unfamiliar or newly acquainted people requesting access to bases, information or special events. If solicitation attempts are made, report the incident immediately to law enforcement agencies. To initiate an Eagle Eyes/Suspicious Activity Report, call 06371-47-2050. Christmas markets and other events are also lucrative targets for nefarious activities. Be aware of your surroundings; pickpockets like
to work in teams to distract targets, lift possessions and evade capture. Don’t leave your valuables unattended, and be cognizant when moving through crowds of people. If your wallet or access cards are lost or missing, report it immediately. Traveling this season? Consult the Department of Defense Foreign Clearance Guide to ensure you meet necessary requirements prior to traveling to a particular country. The U.S. State Department
website also contains vital information regarding foreign country medical facilities, crime trends and possible threats. Plan ahead and program emergency response numbers and addresses into your phones or tablets. Inform supervisors and co-workers of travel arrangements. Avoid posting vacation plans on social media websites. While traveling, be “switched on,” and though you may or may not be fluent in the native tongue or dialect,
we are all fluent in tone and body language. Avoid demonstrations, protests and rallies; move away from areas with increased tension. Don’t draw attention to yourself, and remain up to date regarding current events in the area to which you are traveling. Take the time needed and stay vigilant.

786th CES Barrier MX Team leash aircraft

t’s 2 a.m. and darkness looms over the base. Offices are deserted and the streets are quiet, but out on the runway a single light cart glows, cutting through the thick fog and mist. Under the light, members of the 786th Civil Engineer Squadron barrier maintenance team move frantically back and forth along the runway. They are there to ensure the “BAK-12/14” aircraft arresting system is ready to safely engage aircraft in case of an in-flight emergency. Led by Tech. Sgt. Franklin Furman, 786th CES barrier maintenance NCOIC, the team would normally prefer working during the day, but one night a month they ensure the $250,000 system is properly maintained. “We get one eight-hour window every month where the main runway is closed for us to perform all of our maintenance checks and do any quick fixes,” Furman said. “That time is vital for us to be able to do our job without constantly worrying about incoming aircraft forcing us off the runway.” To ensure 100 percent coverage in any weather condition, each end of the main runway has a BAK-12/14, which rests just below the concrete surface. The system is hardly visible to the naked eye, but when a distressed aircraft is on approach, the BAK-12/14’s 1.25-inch diameter steel cable appears above the runway surface. The 1.5 inch height of the cable is critical because of the tail hook on the incoming aircraft. If the cable is not high enough the hook could miss the cable and cause catastrophic damage to the aircraft, and possibly endanger the life of the pilot. “This project was important because many of the parts only have a certain time that they can be in operation for a certain length of time before
they have to be tested and replaced, to ensure in-flight emergencies can be safely grounded, saving a pilot’s life and billions of dollars worth of aircraft,” said Airman 1st Class Jonathon Moore, 786th CES electrical power production technician. There are a total of 28 solid steel boxes comprising the two BAK 14s. In each box, there are a series of pins, springs, pulleys, and a pneumatic piston, which raise and lower the 800 pound cable into place. “My role in this project was to replace the torsion springs and the cams in the BAK 14 support box to ensure the cable will continuously be able to rise above and go back under the runway when not in use,” Moore said. The system runs on compressed air to lower and hold the cable in the down position. In the event of an emergency, the system is remotely activated from the Air Traffic Control Tower. When engaged, a sensor switches off the compressed air in the steel boxes, and a torsion spring mechanically lifts the rubber cable support blocks above the runway surface. Only then does the BAK14 display its taut steel cable, which is strung across the runway at a static pressure of 175 psi. When engaged, two underground arresting motors use a massive tape wheel and hydraulic pressure to put the brakes on the cable. “It works much like a retractable dog leash; except, instead of Fido chasing a nearby squirrel, this leash can halt a 40-ton aircraft traveling at speeds up to 180 nautical miles per hour in a split second,” Furman said. Recently, the Barrier Maintenance team completed the 10-year overhaul of the BAK 14. This task, which took about four months to complete, comprised of replacing 28 support arms, 56 torsion springs, 28 rubber support blocks, 56 cams, 112 cam bolts, 56 wire spokes, 112 2-inch cotter pins, and

This project was important because many of the parts only have a certain time that they can be in operation before they have to be tested and replaced to ensure the systems in-flight emergencies can be safely grounded, saving a pilot’s life and billions of dollars worth of aircraft.
112 small springs. “Imagine spending hours on your hands and knees in the middle of the cold concrete runway; wrestling with heavy, greasy and awkward parts in a space that a child would have trouble slipping their fingers into,” Furman said. “It’s like trying to put 10 pounds of potatoes in a five pound sack.” The barrier maintenance team takes great pride in the work they do to ensure the BAK-12/14 is always ready to save an aircraft, and a pilot, from catastrophe. Their squadron truly “leads the way.”

Post office deals with holiday hustle Story and photo by Senior Airman Jose L. Leon 86th Airlift Wing Public Affairs

eing stationed overseas for the holidays makes giving or receiving gifts a prolonged activity due to the great distance between Europe and the United
States. The 86th Communications Squadron post office is operating at an elevated pace this holiday season processing a plethora of parcels. The daily delivery truck that would typically deliver approximately 4,000 pounds of mail to the Northside Post Office can deliver up to 25,000 pounds of mail during the holiday season. The Northside Post Office processes the mail for approximately 57,000 KMC members, including the mail that goes to the Southside Post Office. “We do our best to be able to fit every package,” said Senior Airman Benjamin Gonzales, 86th CS postal specialist. “It is very important for people to pick up their packages.” Gonzales said making space for packages by increasing shelving space is one way the post office does what it can for customers. When the space reserved for packages is used, the Northside Post Office resorts to finding space in unconventional locations. “As prior service, I know what it is like to send

USAREUR CSM visits 7th CSC Story and photo by Sgt. Daniel J. Friedberg 221st Public Affairs Detachment, 7th Civil Support Command, 21st Theater Sustainment Command U.S. Army Europe Command Sgt. Maj. David S. Davenport Sr. visited the Soldiers of the 7th Civil Support Command Dec. 7 and answered questions in both a town hall meeting with NCOs and a luncheon for junior enlisted Soldiers. The Nashville, Tenn., native is the U.S. Army’s senior enlisted leader in Europe. He began the meeting at Daenner Kaserne by telling Army Reserve Soldiers that recent budget reductions for the Army will not stand in the way of leadership development and readiness, especially for the Army’s corps of NCOs. Davenport informed the NCOs and Soldiers in attendance that both Structured Self-Development training and the Army’s Warrior Leader Course are becoming prerequisites for Soldiers to advance to the rank of sergeant and above.
U.S. Army Europe Command Sgt. Maj. David S. Davenport Sr. answers questions presented by the NCOs of the 7th Civil Support Command at a town hall meeting Dec. 7.
“You’ve got to knock out your SSD before you can even think about promotion,” Davenport said. Davenport also mentioned that additional leadership skill qualifications,
such as master resiliency trainer and master fitness trainer, would become available to Soldiers by next spring at the U.S. Joint Multinational Training Center located at Grafenwöhr and
Vilseck. Once his plan is implemented, a Soldier can be qualified as both a master resiliency and a master fitness trainer within a month. “It’s a pretty good deal,” Davenport said. “These certifications could be delivered for just a couple of hundred dollars per Soldier.” After a decade of demands placed on Soldiers to fight counterinsurgency wars, essential enlisted core competencies necessary to “take care of our Soldiers have been eroded,” Davenport said. Davenport said the solution to this problem lies in how Soldiers’ careers are managed, and stronger focus will be placed on “assignment, education and broadening opportunities” over the next five years. “We’re truly trying to get to talent management,” Davenport said. ••• Editor’s note: Davenport actively uses social media to engage with Soldiers and their families. He can be followed on Twitter (@csmdavenport) and Facebook (Command Sergeant Major, U.S. Army Europe).

USAFE Airman rocks her way to top Story and photo by Airman 1st Class Holly Mansfield 86th Airlift Wing Public Affairs
S
ervice members usually end up in the spotlight because of their ability to get the job done efficiently, going above and beyond to make it happen no matter what. Though that plays a big part, for one U.S. Air Forces in Europe and Air Forces Africa Airman, standing out is not just because of her talent for “making it happen,” but her ability to pour her soul into her work in the form of music. For Airman 1st Class Melissa Lackore, USAFEAFAFRICA Band vocalist, making her hobby her career is an added bonus. For Lackore, receiving awards is nice, but being able to do her hobby while building morale and partnerships with other nations makes her job more enjoyable. “I love singing at the different festivals because the band gets to build partnerships and know all the locals here,” said Lackore. “I get to interact with them and see how they celebrate different holidays. Speaking to the audience afterwards is
when we get to hear their reactions to our music.” Being away from her family means they aren’t able to see her performances. Coming here, she didn’t know her first performance would be one of her most publicized gigs. “Right when I got off the plane here at Ramstein I got to sing the national anthem for the Armed Forces Classic college basketball game that was aired internationally,” said Lackore. “It was really cool because my family back home got to see me on TV.” Her ability to jump into a performance of that level right away proved to her superiors she has the ability to adapt to different situations and styles of music. “She has the ability to be versatile in multiple styles of music,” said Tech. Sgt. Andrew Benton, USAFE-AFAFRICA Band pianist. “She is an example to our Airmen as someone who is dedicated to the mission.” Hard work, building partnerships and volunteering are some of the reasons why she is on her way to the top. “Rocking out” during and after work makes her a well-rounded Airman.

DOD adds synthetic marijuana to random drug testing by Army Sgt. 1st Class Tyrone C. Marshall Jr. American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON — The Defense Department has expanded its zero tolerance for the use of illicit drugs to include synthetic marijuana, also known as “spice,” the director of the DOD’s drug testing and program policy said here Dec. 15. In an interview with American Forces Press Service and the Pentagon Channel, Army Lt. Col. Tom Martin said that in addition to the broad range of drugs for which the military already randomly tests service members, synthetic marijuana will also be included. “The message we’re getting out now is that when you participate in our random urinalysis program, synthetic marijuana products or synthetic marijuana will now be tested along with our other drugs,” he said. “It’s been known in the general population, both in the medical community and various media reports, that synthetic marijuana drug use is a serious health concern.” Martin noted that while the military typically has a much lower level of drug use than in society at large, synthetic marijuana “still poses a significant
risk to both the safety and readiness of our force.” “Prior to synthetic marijuana being banned,” he said, “the department went out and did a random study looking at a sampling of military urine specimens from all the different services to see if synthetic marijuana was being used by our members. At that time, the positive rate, or the number of service members who tested positive, was about 2.5 percent.” To put that in perspective, he said, in 2012 the overall positive rate for all the drugs tested for in the urinalysis program was 0.9 percent. “In 2012, synthetic marijuana products were banned through legislation,” Martin said. “So we went back and did a similar study, and what we found is that the actual numbers went down.” However, he added, a high number of service members are using synthetic marijuana. In addition to testing for synthetic marijuana, Martin said, the military also randomly tests all service members for marijuana, cocaine, amphetamines and other drugs in the amphetamine class, including methamphetamines and the drug known as “ecstasy.” The test also looks for codeine and morphine, oxycodone, oxymorphone, hydrocodone,
hydromorphone, Vicodin, and different diazepines, such as Valium and Xanax. Martin said even deployed troops are subject to random drug testing. “They are still mandated to be tested under the military’s random urinalysis program; however, the frequency is determined by the operational tempo,” he said. If a random drug testing detects the presence of illegal drugs, Martin said, troops are subject to punishment under military law guidelines. “Any service member who tests positive for either an illicit drug or misuse of a prescription drug falls under any actions deemed appropriate under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, as well actions that are appropriate as deemed by their commander,” he said. With the addition of synthetic marijuana to an already stringent drug testing policy, Martin reiterated the department’s commitment to zero tolerance for the abuse of illicit drugs. “All service members participating in our urinalysis program will be tested for cannabinoids,” he said. “And if they do test positive, they will be dealt with according to the Uniform Code of Military Justice.”

Club 7: A Heaven-like haven by Senior Airman Hailey Haux 86th Airlift Wing Public Affairs Imagine being a single Airman, living in the dorms in Europe, possibly being away from family for the first time.

home away from home was established by the chapel in May 2008 and recently expanded to Kapaun Air Station in May 2013. “Both locations offer the same services for the Airmen,” said Richard Deppe, 86th Airlift Wing Chapel Airmen ministry centers coordinator. “We furnished and decorated the club as if it were our own home to provide something other than a ‘dayroom’
type atmosphere.” Club 7 has provided Airmen with comfortable furniture, big screen televisions, free computer and internet access, food and drinks, a library full of movies and video games and much more. “Club 7 provides a family,” said Senior Airman Anastasia Miles, U.S. Air Forces in Europe operations branch technician and Club 7 volun-
teer. “A lot of us don’t have anyone here and to be able to find people to hang out with helps a lot.

KHS students take part in STEMposium by Mikayla Schad Kaiserslautern High School Not many students know what career path they wish to follow. Last month in Oberwesel, Germany, nine students from Kaiserslautern High School joined nearly 100 students from across the Department of Defense Education Activity at an event called STEMposium. STEMposium is a scenario-based experience focusing on the four STEM subjects: science, technology, engineering and mathematics. These are the top four future jobs of my generation. Here, DODEA students joined together in small groups of six to accomplish one task: help solve a potential real-world problem. Over the years, STEMposium has posed many scenarios to students ranging from extreme floods, growing forest fires and earthquakes. This year’s
scenario was a comet strike in a highly populated area. The collision site was near Lake Constance in Germany near the Swiss border. The impact of the comet caused as much damage as would a 500pound bomb. In the scenario, the comet caused multiple forest fires, and many people died. Each group of students had six types of engineering jobs: civil/ structure, green technology, biological, environmental, robotics and computer simulations. All six of these jobs were vital in the process of figuring out the given problem. Like in real-world situations, it took several days at the STEMposium for all the facts to come in. Using the information we were provided, we worked in our groups, exchanging information to determine how we could mitigate the damage of the comet’s impact. We collected samples via robots we built with Lego’s, designed and built bridges, and found ways to use alternate energy sources, provid-
ed by the green tech engineers. By the week’s end, all the teams accomplished their mission and helped to save the world. It was a tearful departure on the last day; all the students had come together and created friendships throughout the week. This opportunity provided life-long lessons. I recommend future DODEA students take part in this incredible opportunity. The STEMposium gives students a chance to figure out what it is they want to do beyond high school. The STEMposium is a place for a student to step up to the challenge, step out of their comfort zone and take charge, and see what the world has to offer. The STEMposium is one of the best things you can do in high school. I would like to thank the Kaiserslautern Landstuhl Spouses Association, Ramstein Enlisted Spouses’ Association, KHS PTSO, Ramstein Officers’ Spouses Club and our parents for supporting us during the week.

Germans observe New Year’s Eve traditions by Petra Lessoing 86th Airlift Wing Public Affairs People throughout the world celebrate New Year’s Eve with a variety of traditions to welcome the arrival of the new year. In Germany, New Year’s Eve is called “Silvester.” The name refers to a pope in the fourth century, Silvester I, who was bishop in Rome from 314 and died Dec. 31, 335. Later he was canonized and since 354, the church celebrates the day of Dec. 31. Traditionally that night, Germans like to have dinner in a restaurant, watch a theater performance, attend a festive dance or have a party with friends at home. People celebrating at home usually observe old German traditions. At midnight, they wish each other the very best for the new year, propose a toast and then go outside to shoot firecrackers. This noise-making tradition goes back to former times, when people wanted to scare away evil demons so they could not do any harm to them in the coming year.
Another custom is to give little pigs, chimney sweepers, horseshoes or four-leaf clovers made of marzipan, chocolate, wood or porcelain. These symbols are lucky mascots. In ancient times, when people still believed in gods, they made sacrifices. They brought eggs, chickens and pigs to the altars hoping the gods would treat them nicely, send them rain for their vegetables on the fields and not too much snow in winter. The horseshoe originates from a time when farmers used horses to plow fields. In those times, horseshoes were placed above the door to protect the family from fire and lightning. The chimney sweeper frees the way to the top of soot and dirt and brings fresh wind. Also with the cleaning of the chimney, the chimney sweeper banned the danger of fires and therefore was seen as lucky mascot. The four-leaf clover is supposed to bring luck but only when being found and not being searched for. The clover is known to have that power of luck because it is so scarce. Also, it can be looked at as a salutary cross.
Besides a Christian symbol, it was seen as a Celtic cross, which was the sign for protection. In general, the four-leaf clover is a world symbol, showing the four directions and combining the four elements. It is said to prevent strokes of fate, raise students’ efficiencies and be advantageous for gamblers. Another custom is to melt lead, pour it into water and wait to see what designs come out. Each design has a different meaning for the future. The lead can be bought in a package together with a list telling what each design or symbol means. Traditions continue the first day of the new year. It is said that people shouldn’t get up late, because, if so, they will sleep poorly all year long and have bad dreams. On New Year’s Day, children receive huge pretzels, the “Neujahrsbretzel,” and in many villages in the KMC, people go from door to door wishing a Happy New Year and getting a shot to drink. Throughout the following days, the phrase “Prost Neujahr!” can be heard whenever people meet again for the first time that year. It means a toast to the new year and good luck.

Children collect donations, observe Three Kings Day by Petra Lessoing 86th Airlift Wing Public Affairs Germans observe Three Kings Day, or Epiphany, Jan. 6. The day marks the end of the Christmas season. The Christmas tree is lit for the last time, discarded, and the ornaments are packed away until next Christmas. It’s one of Germany’s most traditional and characteristic religious holidays, but Jan. 6 is only a legal holiday in the states of BadenWürttemberg, Bavaria and Sachsen. After Christmas until late January, children disguise themselves as the three holy kings and can be seen
walking from house to house in the KMC. They have paper crowns on their heads and carry a big golden star on a pole. They sing, pray and ask for charity collections for their parish. Usually, an adult member of their parish accompanies them. Each year, about 500,000 children participate in the fundraiser event, which was established in 1959. In 2012, more than €43 million were collected to support projects and relief programs for children in Asia, Africa, Latin American, Oceania and Eastern Europe.

Balthasar. In former times, when ringing doorbells, they received Christmas cookies, pretzels and sausages. After receiving a donation, the three holy kings would bless the house by writing “20C+M+B14” in chalk above the doors to keep evil from entering. The three letters, C, M and B, don’t stand for the kings’ initials, but for the Latin words “Christus Mansionem Benedictat,” which literally means “Christ bless this home.” The blessing has to stay over the door until the next Three Kings Day.
