From the Garrison Commander

And so we begin the year 2015. The holidays and festivities are coming to an end; decorations are slowly put away as we hold on tight to the moments shared with families and friends. A new year takes over, and one thing that we know for certain is that it brings change. Most fear change because of its unknowns. However, change can be good, it can be positive, it can bring about innovations, and it can make a difference in the present and future. American civil rights activist Martin Luther King, Jr. once spoke about “having a dream”. His public speech delivered on August 28, 1963, calling for an end to racism in the United States, was reinforced by more than 250,000 civil rights supporters. Dr. King’s speech marked a defining moment of the American Civil Rights Movement. More importantly, his words, filled with bravery, despair, and a hope paved a path towards equality and unity. Even so, we cannot forget that such progress did not come easily; Dr. King’s vision was hard won. Martin Luther King Jr once said, “Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.” I encourage you to take a moment and look around you - see the change – feel the change - for progress is evident as people of all creeds and colors join together in many aspects of life. .” Dr. King’s legacy – his dream - is all around us. Never lose sight of this.

From the Garrison Command Sergeant Major Happy New Year! Let’s receive this new beginning learning from the experiences and challenges we overcame in the previous one. Whether your new year’s resolutions are to lose weight, eat healthier, get fit, find a better way to manage stress, save money or quit smoking, you can start by developing an achievable plan and program that will help you to accomplish your goals. Regular physical activity helps improve your overall health and fitness, and reduces your risk for many chronic diseases. Some other benefits include: sleeping better at night, decreasing your chances of becoming depressed, and helping you look good. Always remember to pick physical activities you enjoy and that match your abilities. This will help ensure that you stick with them. Consult a health care provider to determine appropriate program to follow. During the month of January we celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Birthday. Dr King grew to become one of the greatest Social Activists the world has ever known. Throughout his life Dr. King developed into the undisputed leader of the civil rights movement. He fought for equal opportunity rights. He said that all people have the right to equal treatment under the law. Dr. King believed that poverty caused much of the unrest in America. Not only poverty for African-Americans, but poor whites, Hispanics and Asians. As we get ready for a new beginning let’s emphasize the Total Army Strong Campaign. The strength of the Nation is built on the readiness and resilience of every member of the premier All Volunteer Total Army, to include, every Soldier, Civilian and Family member. We will always maintain our commitment to our most important resource. Army Strong! God Bless You All.

FB USAG Celebrates its Holiday Luncheon José L. López Public Affairs Office

Members of the Fort Buchanan Garrison gathered at the Headquarters Building 390 In the early morning hours of 12 December 2014 to practice singing and playing music in order to go around the installation in “Parranda.“ They started at the 1st Mission Support Command´s Headquarters Building and continued to the Child Development Center´s ¨Lion´s Den, The Antilles Middle School Cafetorium, Rodríguez Army Health Clinic and concluding at the Army and Air Force Exchange main store lobby. They entertained the public with song and dance in Puerto Rican Holiday spirit. This preceded the Garrison Holiday Luncheon that took place at the Cabaña Picnic Area. The event started with Garrison Commander Col. Caryn S. Heard’s presentation of a Certificate of Achievement to Damian Ongay, Auditor, awarded for his successful completion of the Civilian Leadership Development Program. She also presented employees who were selected in the VERA/VSIP program.

Maj. Gen. Janet L. Cobb, Commanding General, 81st Regional Support Command, was visiting Fort Buchanan and addressed the garrison workforce. She said: “As Senior Commander, I am honored to be here and to be a part of your family, working with you, to make sure you have what you need as a garrison.” The garrison Safety Office performed a musical presentation of holiday safety. Maj. Gen. Janet L. Cobb commented that the performance was the best safety brief she had ever heard. The members of the Parranda continued to entertain the workforce while lunch was served. A video presentation of “2014 in Review” was also played commemorating the garrison’s activities held during the year.

Wellness Week Activities Held at FB José A. Colón Rivera Sexual Assault Response Coordinator

In order to enhance the health and well being of the Fort Buchanan Community, Rodríguez Army Health Clinic (RAHC) and Fort Buchanan’s Community Health Promotion Council (CHPC) sponsored a “Wellness Week” from the 18th through the 22nd of November 2014. LTC David Sloniker thanked “AAFES, DECA, MWR, Triple S, Humana, not to mention the hard work of the Clinic staff” which supported the events. He also stated: “I am not saying don’t eat those roasted pigs, turkeys, hams or rice and beans the things that you love…But in all good things, do it with the idea of moderation, as you really can have too much of a good thing! And after you settle in after a good meal, get out and enjoy the great weather here in Puerto Rico!” During Wellness Week, over 500 veterans, family members and military personnel benefitted from hypertension, cholesterol and glucose screenings; received classes on nutrition, how to maintain healthy relations, suicide awareness, health insurance; and information on the many activities within the Installation like bowling, golf, track, gym, etc. On Thursday, the US Army Garrison Commander hosted a “Walk with the Commander” activity in which the community had the opportunity to walk one mile on Fort Buchanan’s new track, along with the USAG Commander, COL Caryn S. Heard. The activities concluded on Sunday with a worship service directed by MAJ Robert Crawford.

COMMUNITY CLUB & CONFERENCE CENTER Valentines Day at it’s Best

Valentine’s Day can be a tricky maze of emotion. From the terminally single, to the otherwise broken-hearted, it seems that people have turned a cold shoulder to the day dedicated to warm hearts. It’s not just singles either. Couples have become disheartened with choosing the right place, picking the right gift and ironing out all the details of a perfect Valentine’s Day. Attached or single, let us help demystify the art of enjoying Valentine’s Day. Here’s our list of the top three attributes to look for. #1: Affordability Maybe the most frustrating aspect of the day is how expensive it can be. It’s easy to get caught in the trap of rolling a year’s worth of love into one day. With expensive dinners, even more expensive gifts, the tally can quickly get out of control. Keep it simple. Remember the saying: Less is more. Clichés have their staying power for a reason. Survive the day with your pockets intact. #2: Music OK. This one may seem like a matter of taste but hear us out. The effects of music can range from mental to physical and even spiritual levels. Recent scientific studies have listed stress reduction, mood elevation, and ability to enhance cognitive enhancement. According to researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, music shows similar cardiovascular benefits to those of laughter. Let music do some of the heavy lifting this Valentine’s Day and set the tone for an awesome day. #3: Safety Unless you’re on a rollercoaster, it’s pretty hard to focus on enjoying yourself when you’re concerned for your safety. Just check Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. A very popular structure of psychological study, Maslow’s theory places safety as a primary need that must be realized before the true achievement of love and belonging. But it doesn’t take a scientist to know a safe person is a happy person. Still looking for that Valentine’s Day spot? The search is over! Come out and party with us at the Valentine’s Dance Party at Community Club on February 14th starting at 8:00 pm. The Ballroom will be jumping with live music by Fuego Ardiente. Tickets are $8.00 in advance and $10.00 at the door. Purchase eight tickets in advance and reserve a table. For more details call 787-707-3535 / 3974.

A Golf Club Membership Can Be a Sound Financial Decision

Add up the amount you are paying on greens fees and non-discounted purchases each year. Then calculate the price of your membership dues and purchases at discounted rates. These purchases might include everything from club repairs to golf lessons to new clubs at the pro shop. Golf lovers usually find that their membership ends up saving them money over the course of a year. Don’t forget to include all of the activities and facilities that the membership offers. While you are playing golf, your family could enjoy the Bowling Center or the Community Club. How much would you have to pay for all of this access if you purchased it separately? People consider a a Golf Course membership something prestigious but it is actually a sound financial decision, too. There are plenty of additional ways that belonging to a club can help your pocketbook. You might use your guest privileges to invite your clients or employer to a round of golf and a nice lunch. It hardly matters

who golfs better. Win or lose, you will win by making a good impression on your business partners, boss or potential clients. You will have an opportunity to improve your relationship or even discuss business while enjoying a game you love. Fort Buchanan Golf Membership fees:

• BOWLING NEWS • CAFÉ 151 healthy eating for an active lifestyle

10 tips for combining good nutrition and physical activity For youth and adults engaging in physical activity and sports, healthy eating is essential for optimizing performance. Combining good nutrition with physical activity can lead to a healthier lifestyle.

maximize with nutrient-packed foods

Give your body the nutrients it needs by eating a variety of nutrient-packed food, including whole grains, lean protein, fruits and vegetables, and low-fat or fat-free dairy. Eat less food high in solid fats, added sugars, and sodium (salt).

energize with grains

Your body’s quickest energy source comes from foods such as bread, pasta, oatmeal, cereals, and tortillas. Be sure to make at least half of your grain food choices whole-grain foods like whole-wheat bread or pasta and brown rice.

4 5

Variety is great! Choose beans and peas (kidney, pinto, black, or white beans; split peas; chickpeas; hummus), soy products (tofu, tempeh, veggie burgers), and unsalted nuts and seeds.

vary your fruits and vegetables

Get the nutrients your body needs by eating a variety of colors, in various ways. Try blue, red, or black berries; red and yellow peppers; and dark greens like spinach and kale. Choose fresh, frozen, low-sodium canned, dried, or 100 percent juice options.

power up with protein

Protein is essential for building and repairing muscle. Choose lean or low-fat cuts of beef or pork, and skinless chicken or turkey. Get your protein from seafood twice a week. Quality protein sources come from plantbased foods, too.

mix it up with plant protein foods

don’t forget dairy

Foods like fat-free and low-fat milk, cheese, yogurt, and soy beverages (soymilk) help to build and maintain strong bones needed for everyday activities.

Chaplain’s Corner Legal Ethics United States vs. Hugo Earl White Defendant Hugo White was a government contracting officer working at Fort Bliss, a United States Army post headquartered in El Paso, Texas. In this position, Mr. White was responsible for awarding sub-contracting work in the El Paso area to companies qualified under the Small Business Administration’s 8(a) Business Development Program. Instead of independently performing his job duties, Mr. White passed off certain contracting responsibilities to his friend, co-defendant John A. Villela. Mr. Villela would charge companies a consulting fee, claiming that he had an inside track on securing work at Fort Bliss. Various companies paid Mr. Villela for his services, and Mr. Villela, through Mr. White, secured the companies contracts and work at Fort Bliss. The indictment against the defendants stated that Mr. Villela compensated Mr. White for his participation in the scheme with a cell phone, an automobile, and an air conditioning unit for his house. Villela and White were charged with various criminal offenses, including violation of 18 U.S.C. § 201(c)(1). On October 16, 2013, Mr. White pleaded guilty to one count of violating 18 U.S.C. § 201(c)(1), and on April 17, 2014 the court sentenced him to 15 months in prison, one year of supervised release and a $2,000 fine. Mr. Villela’s trial is currently scheduled on the court’s calendar. This case was handled by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Texas, El Paso Division. 18 U.S.C. § 201 proscribes bribery and the acceptance of certain gratuities. The U.S. Supreme Court in United States v. Sun-Diamond Growers of California, 526 U.S. 398, 404-405 (1999), describes the two crimes.

If you need legal advice on ethics principles applicable to federal employees, and you are a federal civilian employee of the U.S. Army working at Fort Buchanan, please feel free to call the Installation Legal Office at 787-707-5163.

I grew up in the segregated South. Our way of life was one of separation between the races. I knew a few individuals who traded at my dad’s store or did odd jobs in the community, but otherwise the black people lived on their side of town and we, ours. It was in my childhood that the civil rights movement began. Although I was young, I knew that many of our folks disapproved and considered the activities of those who worked for change, criminal. There were a variety of leaders from Stokely Carmichael to Malcolm X to the Reverend Ralph David Abernathy, but the one who stood out and whose life epitomizes the movement is the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Born in Atlanta, he was named “Michael,” after his father. When he was five, he traveled with his father to Germany where they visited the sites where Martin Luther performed his works. Shortly thereafter, father and son were both re-Christened with the name “Martin,” after their new hero. Rarely does one rise to the level of his namesake, but Martin had a profound impact on the world. A profound scholar in his own right (Ph.D. from Boston University), he adopted the principles of non-violence in a very violent era in United States history. He sought change, and he sought it immediately but not at the cost of human life or dignity. Many persons of color suffered at the hands of overzealous thugs and bigots, but Dr. King encouraged his followers to take the way of peace with justice. In the end he gave his own life in support of freedom for all. It seems we stand at a similar crossroads today. The battleground has moved from Selma to St. Louis, but racism is still alive and well. It will take persons of courage to stand up and speak again the violence done on the basis of human skin color or background. Our country is older but not always more mature. As we celebrate what would be the 86th birthday of the slain civil rights leader, may we resolve to engage racism and injustice in whatever forms they present themselves. May we seek out what is right and speak the truth in all situations, risking embarrassment and insult in order to stand for what is right. Chaplain Crawford 787 707 3405

Upcoming Events The Inspector General Informs Principles of Army Inspections Five Principles from AR 1-201 Inspections have been part of the U.S. Army since the Revolutionary War. MG Von Steuben, the first Continental Army Inspector General, personally inspected every soldier in the Continental Army for equipment, appearance, and readiness. The five principles he used for inspections apply today. Inspections should be: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Purposeful Coordinated Focused on Feedback Instructive Followed up

Inspections should have a purpose. There must be a clear goal established, such as a initial command inventory. Inspections should also be a coordinated event. There should be no surprises in the criteria of inspected items, the timing of the inspections, or the make-up of the inspections team. The inspection must also be focused on feedback to the unit, so as to help increase the unit’s readiness and war fighting capability. If appropriate, the inspection should also be an instructive event, with a teach and train attitude from the inspectors to the unit being inspected. Lastly, there must be a follow-up event, or possibly multiple follow-up events. Types of inspections include command, staff, and inspector general. For command inspections, there are two types: initial command inspection and subsequent command inspection.

DES BLOTTER

The Fort Buchanan Fire Department, Fire Chief wants you to know... Extension cords, with their ability to bring any appliance or lamp within easy reach of an electrical outlet, are one of the most convenient products in the home. But when they are misused, they can also be a source of potential danger. Extension cords are generally rated in amps and volts. To determine if an extension cord is properly rated, add the total wattage of each bulb or electrical device, then divide by 120 to calculate the total number of amps. If the total number of amps is equal to or greater than the maximum rating of the cord, you must use a higher rated extension cord. If you were to use a thin cord for a device that draws a lot of current, such as an electric space heater, the cord could overheat and start an electrical fire. Select the right cord for the job. Larger appliances and power tools use cords with three prongs, or conductors, one of which is the ground wire. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) estimates that over 300 people are killed or injured each year as a result of fires caused by extension cords. The CPSC reports that improperly functioning extension cords cause 3,300 residential fires annually.

CLDP4 Proudly Graduates Class #4 at FB José L. López

Public Affairs Office

Civilian Leadership Development Program (CLDP), Class 4 graduated at Fort Buchanan Garrison’s Headquarters, Building 390, on 21 November 2014. Rafael Contreras, Directorate of Human Resources, and CLDP training coordinator, described the group’s experience as a four month journey. Briefings, challenging classroom instruction, distant learning and contracted teaching, were all a part of this training. They also learned and used time management skills. This was the first time that a group of selected supervisors were assigned this training. Carlos O. Guzmán, Directorate of Public Works, was selected by his peers to act as Class Spokesperson during their graduation. In his speech, he said “CLDP taught us how to become better leaders by teaching us how to put in practice actual teamwork, provide clear communication, lead by example, establish clear goals, stimulate others to work, support fellow employees, recognize subordinates for their work, and accomplish the mission of this organization in order to provide the expected quality product for our garrison command.” Irma L. Muñoz, Sports Director, Child and Youth

Services, was the only female in CLDP4. “It was a great course. There was great interaction within the group, a lot of networking, teamwork, and this helps to deal successfully with the leadership and to properly supervise coworkers. It was a great experience and I recommend this to everybody in the workforce.” Raúl L. Rodríguez, Training Division Chief, Directorate of Plans, Training, Mobilization and Security comments on his experience:”There was resistance at first because we were involuntarily assigned to participate in this course. The selection process was different. At first, we were all more focused in our mission instead, and we thought that by being in the class, we would fail our main responsibilities, but it was not so. We completed the course. Our most important achievement was the team building we had gained, which in my opinion, was the leadership’s goal from the beginning. The fact that I had the opportunity to meet supervisors from other directorates was a very good experience.” Garrison Commander Col. Caryn S. Heard, and Command Sgt. Maj. Luis Rosario presented their Certificates of Achievement.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TRAFFIC DELAYS AND RE-ROUTE EXPECTED STARTING ON 12 JANUARY DUE TO CLOSING OF CHRISMAN ROAD FOR THE REPAIRS TO BRIDGE 157 (NEXT TO THE FIRE DEPARTMENT). PLEASE PLAN ACCORDINGLY. 17

ARMY COMMUNITY SERVICE Have you seen your Credit Report lately? Part 2 By George H. Román, ACS Financial Readiness Program

The first section of this two-part series covered your rights to your personal credit information. Now we continue with the responsibilities of the consumer reporting agencies. • Consumer reporting agencies must correct or delete inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable information.

Inaccurate, incomplete or unverifiable information must be removed or corrected, usually within 30 days. However, a consumer reporting agency may continue to report information it has verified as accurate.

• Consumer reporting agencies may not report outdated negative information. In most cases, a consumer reporting agency may not report negative information that is more than seven years old, or bankruptcies that are more than 10 years old.

• Access to your file is limited. A consumer reporting agency may provide information about you only to people with a valid need -- usually to consider an application with a creditor, insurer, employer, landlord, or other business. The FCRA specifies those with a valid need for access. • You must give your consent for reports to be provided to employers. A consumer reporting agency may not give out information about you to your employer, or a potential employer, without your written consent given to the employer. Written consent generally is not required in the trucking industry. For more information, go to www.ftc.gov/credit

• You may limit prescreened offers of credit and insurance you get based on information in your credit report. Unsolicited prescreened offers for credit and insurance must include a toll-free phone number you can call if you choose to remove your name and address from the lists these offers are based on. You may opt-out with the nationwide credit bureaus at 1-888-5-OPTOUT (1-888-567-8688). • You may seek damages from violators.

If a consumer reporting agency, or, in some cases, a user of consumer reports or a furnisher of information to a consumer reporting agency violates the FCRA, you may be able to sue in state or federal court.

• Identity theft victims and active duty military personnel have additional rights. For more information, visit www.ftc.gov/credit

Credit reporting agencies must provide you a free Credit Report once every 12 months, if you ask for it. Keep in mind that Credit Reports do not contain Credit Score numbers so don’t look for that information. To get your free Credit Report from TransUnion, EquiFax, or Experian go to www.annualcreditreport.com. Be aware that there are many, many advertisements that might take you to sites where there will be a cost for any reports you get or subscription fees. Don’t buy anything! You can get your Credit Report free of any charges. Go ahead take a look and make sure the information contained in those Credit Reports is accurate and up to date. Don’t let a negative credit report ruin your day! For more information please call ACS Financial Readiness Program 787-707-3310
