Gen. Welsh delivers Air Force update STORY AND PHOTOS BY SCOTT PAULEY JOINT BASE ANACOSTIA-BOLLING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
Gen. Mark Welsh, Air Force chief of staff, addressed a standing room only audience at the Air Force Association’s Air and Space Conference 2015 at the National Harbor. Welsh spoke about the Air Force’s need to push forward with modernization, honored several Airmen he believes embody the Air Force’s core values, and even surprised the crowd by announcing a promotion to staff sergeant for Airman 1st Class Spencer Stone, the hero who stopped a terrorist attack aboard a train in France on Aug. 21. “In the last 15 years we’ve kind of been reminded the difference between idols and heroes,” said Welsh. “The biggest impact that Spencer’s had, he probably hasn’t even realized yet, it’s on Airmen. Bud, I don’t think you get it yet. I don’t think you know how this has affected people in our service. You make us proud. You make the service proud. There’s no way the secretary (of the Air Force) and I could thank you enough. There’s no way Airmen can thank you enough.” Airman 1st Class Stone was already preparing to sew on his senior airman stripe in November, so Welsh and Chief Master Sgt. of the Air Force James Cody decided to wait until then for his step promotion. He followed that up with a warning to Stone about the tremendous responsibility of becoming a non-commissioned officer,

Welsh delivered his annual Air Force Update speech to a standing room only crowd where he honored several Airmen, and spoke about the need for modernization in today’s Air Force. and his high hopes for the Airman. “Spencer one thing you have got to remember, when you sew on that stripe and become a non-commissioned officer in the United States Air Force you’ve got a whole bunch of people in this audience who are going to make sure you take that seriously,” he said. “And you remember your job the day you pin that on is to teach your airmen from that day forward to act the way you acted when you didn’t have to. Give them your integrity. Give them your excellence. Teach them your courage.Teach them your humility. “Make sure they understand
that all this stuff is fleeting, and that all that matters is who you are down in there. Thanks for making us proud buddy. Congratulations, and I look forward to seeing you as a staff sergeant.” Welsh spent a long portion of the speech addressing the rising arguments against the Air Force’s current efforts to modernize the force with the F-35 Lightning, II and other aircraft. He addressed the thought of modernization by alluding to the worries of a stagnant Air Force. “Holding on to the things that made us great in the past is not the way to make us great in the fu-

We have got to modernize the Air Force.” The bulk of his attention was on the argument that the Air Force, by retiring the A-10 Warthog for the F-35, was ignoring or devaluing the close air support (CAS) mission. Welsh reaffirmed his dedication to CAS by introducing Silver Star recipient Master Sgt. Delorean Sheridan, a combat comptroller assigned to the 21st Special Tactics Squadron at Pope Field, who survived a gunfight in Afghanistan last year. Welsh described his heroics against an enemy wearing an Afghan military uniform who opened
fire on friendly forces when Sheridan responded and “eliminated the target.” “You can imagine the scene, everybody’s diving for cover; everybody’s scrambling to get behind vehicles. Except for him…he attacks,” said Welsh. “‘First There,’ is his motto. And he will be, and he has been. And we will never leave him hanging there…ever.” He ended the speech by bringing the group of Airmen he highlighted for their embodiment of what it means to be an Airman onto the stage, and showed a touch of flair as he introduced the USAF Band to play the Air Force Song as the speech concluded.
Air Force Honor Guard pays tribute to 9/11 first responders BY CHRISTOPHER HURD
JOINT BASE ANACOSTIA-BOLLING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
Armed with American flags, the United States Air Force Honor Guard traveled to New York City Sept. 10 to pay tribute to fallen 9/11 first responders. During the attacks and following rescue efforts, 414 first responders lost their lives. “We wanted to find a way to honor [New York City first responders] and let them know they are our brothers and sisters in service and uniform,” said Air Force Maj. Ryan VanVeelen, United States Honor Guard director of operations. The Guard went to the 9/11 Memorial and found panels with the names of fallen first responders from New York City Police Department’s (NYPD) 1st Precinct, the closest department to ground zero, New York City Fire Department (NYFD) Squad Company 1, which lost half of its unit, and the Port Authority. After a moment of silence, they ceremoniously folded a flag in front of the names, paying tribute to first responders who made the ultimate sacrifice. “This was our way of honoring them for the service and sacrifice

At 8:46 a.m. the next morning, they stood at ground zero as the city observed a moment of silence commemorating the moment the first plane struck the North Tower of the World Trade Center. As first
responders read the names of fallen members of each unit, the Honor Guard again folded the same American flags and presented one to NYPD’s 1st Precinct and one to NYFD Squad Company 1. They are still working to present the final flag to the Port Authority.
The emotion of the day, the small act of folding the American flag, and presenting it meant a great deal to the units. “To call them thankful would be an understatement,” VanVeelen said. “These fearless men broke down in tears because of what it
meant to them. To be a part of that is something I’ll never forget.” After receiving the flag, members of Squad Company 1 welcomed the Honor Guard back to their station for a chance to see how they live on a day-to -day basis. “I can’t call them brothers and sisters enough because that is what they feel like the moment you start talking to them,” VanVeelen said. “Just overall an amazing trip.” During the trip, the Guard also performed a wreath-laying ceremony in North Point, New York for first responders , performed another flag folding ceremony for Andrew Desperito (the only firefighter killed when his Long Island Fire department disobeyed calls to stay away and went into the city to help) and spent two hours touring the 9/11 museum. The Honor Guard is looking to make the ceremony a yearly event with the hopes of honoring a different precinct and fire department each year.

Air Force Band’s Max Impact releases new original song and video, “American Airman” BY MASTER SGT. ERIC SULLIVAN U.S. AIR FORCE BAND
The U.S. Air Force Band’s Max Impact has made unique contributions to our Airman culture, writing career field-specific songs for the Honor Guard (“Stand”) and Air Force Special Operations (“Send Me”). However, for their next project, the members of the band wanted to broaden the scope of their message. The result of this desire for force-wide inclusivity is the song “American Airman,” which was premiered at the Outstanding Airmen of the Year banquet at this year’s Air Force Association convention. The song was written by Technical Sgt. Nalani Quintello and Senior Master Sgt. Matt Ascione, both members of Max Impact. They were inspired to write the song, Quintello said, by the desire to “incorporate (into a song) every aspect of being an American Airman ... we all raised our right hand and swore to defend our country with our lives. We’re all fight-

Brothers and sisters you can never divide.’” Said Ascione, “Once the tune started coming together, I knew I wanted to premiere it at AFA. Our commander (Col. Larry Lang) had previ-
ously requested that we write a sort of ‘fight song’ for the Air Force, and we hope this song fits the bill perfectly.” As for writing the song with newest Max Impact member Quintello, Ascione said, “She’s a fantastic collaborator. It’s great to have someone who has just come from the edge of the popular music scene (American Idol) to bounce ideas off and to have fresh ideas.” Quintello offered her thoughts on the process as well. “It’s always a pleasure to write with Master Sgt. Ascione ... we just fed off of each other and created our interpretation of what it means to be an American Airman.” The song also includes some Air Force history, referencing Gen. Henry “Hap” Arnold, the only 5-star Air Force general, and Gen. Billy Mitchell, an early advocate of the worth of air power. The intended audience for the song isn’t the only thing that sets “American Airman” apart from Max Impact’s previous offerings. Where “Stand” and “Send Me” take their musical cues
from hard rock and metal, “American Airman” is firmly in the vein of New Nashville Country, and Ascione says this is a good thing. “I feel that the musical style is more accessible to a wider range of listeners, and Nalani’s voice is a perfect match for the tune.” There is also a “shout” chorus at the end, which is a perfect spot for an audience or listener to join in. The world premiere for “American Airman” and the accompanying music video took place on Monday evening at the yearly AFA Convention, during the Outstanding Airmen of the Year awards banquet. This annual event is regularly attended by the highest ranking members of the Air Force, along with other distinguished visitors from government and industry. But, for Quintello, there was more excitement than nerves. “I never would have thought I’d be co-writing a song specifically for the Air Force and premiering it in front of our leaders, including the Chief of Staff, Gen. Welsh. It’s such an honor to be able to write and sing for
something much bigger than myself.” Max Impact filmed the music video using the flight line at Joint Base Andrews as their backdrop. The U.S. Air Force Band’s producer, Chief Master Sgt. Jebodiah Eaton, supervised the project, which brought together professionals from Air Force Television and the 11th Wing public affairs team to shoot and edit the music video. “The synergy on the project was a testament to the professionalism of all of those involved,” said Eaton. Aircraft were supplied by the 811 Operations Group, 459 Air Refueling Wing and 113 Fighter Wing. Eaton explained, “This project came together rather quickly and represents the flexibility and seamless integration of active, guard and reserve components of the Air Force.” The video is currently available on YouTube and can be downloaded from the Defense Video & Imagery Distribution site (DVIDS) https://www.dvidshub.net/ video/423791/americanairmen.

CDC caregivers honored for job well done BY CHRISTOPHER HURD
JOINT BASE ANACOSTIA-BOLLING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
Six Child Development Center (CDC) caregivers at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling (JBAB) were honored Sept. 9 for outstanding care and development of children on base. The decision to recognize the caregivers came about after Navy leadership received a pair of glowing letters from JBAB parents explaining the tremendous care their children were receiving. “[The Navy] wanted to recognize those caregivers because they are unsung heroes,” said Barbara Thompson, director of the Office of Family Readiness Policy. “It makes a big difference for our military families to know that their children are safe and cared for, and they can focus on the mission.” CDC caregivers provide everyday care ranging from bottle feeding and diaper changes to helping with developmental milestones for children ages 6 weeks to 5 years of age. During the visit, Thompson spoke about the importance of honoring those who help military families. “I think it’s a really important message for parents to know that it means a lot to people who are making the effort to take care of their children to be recognized and not taken for granted,” she said. Each caregiver received a Child Development Program 20th anniversary coin, Family Readiness coin and a packet of cards featuring drawings from CDC children. “It really meant a lot to me for them to do that, because it really showed that they appreciate us and you don’t get that on a daily basis,” said Amber Smith, CDC I
