Joint Base Charleston's 628th Security Forces Squadron personnel are working to create new guidelines for the Harbor Patrol Unit at JB Charleston - Weapons Station that will satisfy both Air Force and Navy requirements for waterfront security operations. The new Air Force operating instructions will be written to incorporate new Navy requirements which require the HPU to function as its own section within the 628th SFS. "I'm very excited about this opportunity," said Tech. Sgt. Ben Watrous, 628th SFS HPU coxswain. "HPU is a facet of Air Force security that few air bases have and even fewer Air Force personnel ever get the opportunity to be involved with. This is a chance to do something that is generally only done by special operations in the Air Force, but in this joint base environment, it creates a new opportunity for Airmen." According to Watrous and Petty Officer 1st Class William Carmer, 628th SFS HPU leading petty officer, incorporating the new Navy instruction into a cohesive 628th SFS operating instruction has been a complex task due to the differences in terminology. "Writing the guidelines have been challenging because of the differences in the Air Force and Navy cultures and terminologies, but we have been working it and it has been coming together very nicely," said Carmer. "The Navy realized they need personnel whose sole job is to maintain security and law enforcement on the waterfront. "Waterfront security is different from patrolling on land. You can be a seasoned patrolman, but once you get on a boat it is a completely differ-

ent operating environment and different principals apply," Carmer continued. "All of those things necessitate a completely different mindset." The Navy instructions require all Sailors to complete the Navy's Personnel Qualification Standard, an established guideline already used by Sailors Navy-wide, before being allowed to operate a harbor patrol boat. The 628th SFS has adopted the Navy's PQS as additional training for Airmen and civilians, to better prepare them for their security mission in the HPU. "Last year, the Navy came out with clear guidance on what they require for waterfront security operations," said Chief Petty Officer Vince Stephens, JB Charleston - Weapons Station 628th SFS senior enlisted advisor. "Under joint basing, the HPU is a function of the 628th SFS, but it will be a separate section within security forces." The 628th SFS HPU will also be designated with its own Unit Identification Code. As such, in the future, only Sailors with the required Navy Enlisted Classification code will be able to be assigned to the 628th SFS HPU. "When I get a new Sailor, they will already be qualified for the HPU," said Stephens. "They'll have their swim and boat qualifications. I'll verify they have all their required qualifications dictated by their NEC. The Sailors reporting here will have already conducted waterfront operations, so I expect them to be able to jump right in and conduct daily operations with no problems." "This process of establishing the Air Force operating instructions that coincide with Navy requirements is a great example of JB Charleston teamwork," Stephens concluded. "The hard work and dedication that the 628th SFS HPU Airmen and Sailors have displayed creating the foundation for the unit to move forward has been astonishing."

628th CES Fire Emergency Services tops in AMC By Tech. Sgt. Chrissy Best Joint Base Charleston Public Affairs Joint Base Charleston’s 628th Civil Engineer Squadron Fire Emergency Services flight was named the 2011 Air Mobility Command, Ralph E. Sanborn Fire Department of the Year (large category) in an announcement made March 25 by Brig. Gen Timothy Green, AMC’s installations and mission support director. The annual award honors Chief Master Sgt. Ralph E. Sanborn, a firefighter who dedicated his 44-year career to improving Air Force fire protection capabilities and recognizes the fire

protection flight that achieves the highest degree of excellence in base mission support and fire protection management. “This award is the culmination of 130 exceptional firefighters, one extraordinary administration guru and one fire chief who was given the common sense to stay out of these superstars’ way and let them perform,” said Chief Master Sgt. Derrick Joe, Fire Emergency Services chief. “I am incredibly proud to serve with these heroes while providing fire emergency services to JB Charleston and the surrounding communities.” In 2011, FES responded to more than 1,400

emergencies. On a daily basis, the FES is responsible for protecting 23,000 people who work and live at Joint Base Charleston’s two installations as well as four runways, 23,000 acres of property, 16 miles of shoreline, three wharfs, 16 million square feet of installation facilities and 38 miles of railroads. "There's none better than our fire emergency services professionals,” said Lt. Col. Aaron Altwies, 628th CES commander. “Our base should feel comfortable knowing that no matter what time of day or what kind of emergency, the best fire department in the command is there to protect us."

By Senior Airman Anthony Hyatt Joint Base Charleston Public Affairs In today’s Air Force, being physically fit is a top priority, but in addition to being fit, Comprehensive Airman Fitness includes being socially, mentally and spiritually fit. To help Joint Base Charleston Airmen achieve all four pillars of CAF, several programs exist here for their support. “Comprehensive Airman Fitness represents a ‘holistic approach to caring for our people that equips, enables and empowers everyone to grow more physically, socially, mentally and spiritually fit,’” said Gen. Raymond Johns, Air Mobility Command commander. “CAF represents an Airman or family mem-

ber who is making responsible choices in the face of personal challenges, adversity, or coping with the rigors of military life,” said Senior Master Sgt. Michelle McMeekin, 628th Air Base Wing community action information executive director. “It’s not a program but a way of life designed to make resilient Airmen and families through a balanced foundation built on two primary cornerstones: the four pillars of fitness (social, spiritual, mental and physical) and the five “C’s” (care, commit, connect, communicate and celebrate). “The four pillars represent an individual’s overall state of well-being and resiliency; the five ‘Cs’ represent a community that is strong, resilient and supportive,” said McMeekin.

Commentary by Capt. Michael Couchman 437th Air Base Wing Protocol/C-17A instructor pilot Wisdom is your perspective on life, your sense of balance, your understanding of how the various parts and principles apply and relate to each other. Steven R. Covey Very early one Saturday morning I found myself being awakened by the sound of screeching metal, violent jolts and flickering lights; those few seconds which seemingly lasted an eternity abruptly halted as my body was thrown into a seat in front of me. That morning, August 9th, 1997, I was aboard the Amtrak Southwest Chief which derailed near Kingman, Ariz., due to a bridge that had washed away during a flash flood. For the duration of those everlasting few seconds just prior to impact, a person could imagine the pure chaos and instability of the mind and the environment of such an instance. Yet while reflecting back through those short moments, I remember only the clarity I managed to attain: my perspective toward life’s values. So how can we define such values? Most of us will probably have a different way in describing their worth and the context of their use, especially since we all possess them; yet they are similar only through their differences. If you ask yourself what you value the most, you may come to find that the answers come to you quite quickly; it is the manner in which we go about procuring those ideals we care about the most that we reveal another set of values. These values are shaped through our worldly experiences, religion, family upbringing, and community to name a few. We as Airmen are grouped together in order to support and accomplish some of the most unrivaled feats this world has come to know; as result the demand for such

excellence can be equally taxing as it is rewarding. Our branch’s identity is forged through our adopted values of Integrity first, Service before self, and Excellence in all we do, thus inevitably when values come into conversation these three come to mind. My challenge to the reader through this article is to attempt in identifying those personal life values which are specific to you. In personally identifying what culminates life’s worth and those values which you live by, we can better understand the perspective in which we view our world. For instance I whole heartily believe that the individual perspective can be considered a facet of our military unity, thus through the understanding within ourselves we can strengthen our ability to inherit external principles and social mores like those of our Air Force. Becoming aware of what is important to us as individuals we can better empathize with our peers, knowing that their perspective like our own is completely unique. When we can better identify with our peers, we then hold the key to creating unity as a single force. It is through the trust of values in which the men and women of our forces have the ability to lead and be led through difficult tasks. We can’t expect others to exploit our greatest abilities through leadership and followership if we ourselves do not understand what truly drives us. Going back 15 years to that Saturday when I think about what was going through my mind; my sense of values were not necessarily shaped as our external sources present them to be; as I suspect your own will be different as well. Through the years my values have matured and changed in some aspects where others remain steadfast. It is through the continuous search for a fundamental understanding of those ideals and principles in our lives, that we are better apt to balance what we deem important and become wise when incorporating those values placed before us. Integrity first, Service before self, Excellence in all we do.

To salute or not to salute Commentary by Airman 1st Class Dennis Sloan Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst Public Affairs JOINT BASE MCGUIRE-DIX-LAKEHURST, N.J. – After a routine appointment at the 87th Medical Group I walked out the front entrance of the building through the overhang. I put my cover on and began to walk to my car as I would any other time. Before I even made it five steps out the door, an Airman in a flight suit sternly said, "Excuse me Airman, do we not salute officers anymore?" It just so happens, this Airman was a lieutenant colonel. I took in the rank, the situation and then really questioned myself on why I had not saluted or even paid attention to my surroundings. I quickly thought back to what another Airman had told me in technical school while standing in line for chow. "Sloan, you don't have to salute officers if you're underneath an overhang," he said. I didn't really think twice to question the Airman's advice ... until now. The lieutenant colonel stood staring at me; waiting for the excuse or reason I would conjure up for disrespecting his rank and, most importantly, his authority. I gathered my thoughts, respectfully apologized and began to explain how we were underneath an overhang and that I was not required to salute. As the words of my explanation left my mouth, I could see the officers facial expression turn from frustrated to a disgusted grin. He replied with, "Airman, it does not matter if you're under cover or not. When an officer approaches you outdoors, you need to always salute. Saluting is a sign of respect and I expect you to uphold that tradition and courtesy." The officer turned around and entered the building. As I lifted my feet from the spot I felt I had sunken into, I walked to my car confused and embarrassed for failing at something as simple as saluting procedures. What I found out later was that saluting procedures were not as simple or

clear as I thought they were. Upon returning to my office, I approached fellow service members telling them of this encounter asking them if I was in the right or the wrong. The discussion went on for at least 20 minutes without any real consensus on what the proper saluting procedures were for overhangs. The only thing any of us really agreed on was, "When in doubt, salute." When my boss, Angel Lopez, Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst Public Affairs chief, got wind of this conversation, she felt it was a perfect opportunity for me to learn and inform my fellow Airmen of the proper saluting procedures through this commentary. As I researched the proper saluting procedures, I found myself asking more and more questions, such as: From what distance should a salute be rendered? Do I salute an officer if my hands are full or if their hands are full? And the ever looming question, do I salute while under an overhang? The saluting procedures seemed so simple and clear. Before, I felt confident telling the lieutenant colonel I was not supposed to salute, but I became very unsure of my answer the more I researched this tradition. Maj. Mark M. Boatner III, author of Military Customs and Traditions, believes the origin of our hand salute derives from the long established custom for juniors to remove their headgear in the presence of superiors. In the British Army as late as the American Revolution, a soldier saluted by removing his hat. Later, men were ordered not to pull off their hats when they pass an officer, or to speak to them, but only to clap up their hands to their hats and bow as they pass. Over the years the practice evolved into something like our modern hand salute. After doing several Google searches and looking through my professional development guide, the answers to my questions were not found. My mom always told me I was terrible at finding things, but that's beside the point. It wasn't until a Navy petty officer I work with came to my desk smiling holding a paper in his hand. He had heard

about my saluting debacle and took it upon himself to set me straight. The paper read, saluting outdoors means salutes are exchanged when the persons involved are outside of a building. For example, if a person is on a porch, a covered sidewalk, a bus stop, a covered or open entryway, or a reviewing stand, the salute will be exchanged with a person on the sidewalk outside of the structure or with a person approaching or in the same structure. This applies both on-and-off military installations. I looked up briefly to the same smile he had on his face when he approached me. He told me to keep reading. The paper went on to describe other saluting situations: the junior member should initiate the salute in time to allow the senior officer to return it. To prescribe an exact distance for all circumstances is not practical; however, good judgment should dictate when salutes are exchanged. A superior carrying articles in both hands need not return the salute, but he or she should nod in return or verbally acknowledge the salute. If the junior member is carrying articles in both hands, verbal greetings should be exchanged. Also, use the same procedures when greeting an officer of a foreign nation. I learned a lot about saluting through writing this commentary and most importantly I know when and when not to salute an officer. Knowing all of this now, my hope is to never be in a situation where I have to explain why I had not saluted an officer. Also, my hope is that this commentary will help other Airmen out. I hope they never find themselves in front of a lieutenant colonel telling the officer something a young Airman had told them while waiting in line for chow. A salute is a greeting. The gesture should always be rendered friendly, cheerfully and willingly. It is rendered with pride and as a recognition and sign of respect between comrades in the honorable profession of arms. Editor's note: Information in this article was derived from AFPAM 36-2241 VI.

Diamond Tips: Motorcycle Safety Commentary by Master Sgt. Jason Miller 373rd TRS acting first sergeant Spring is here and so is the warm weather which means it's time to uncover that motorcycle, dust it off and hit the road. With that in mind, and after seeing one of our young active-duty members riding his motorcycle on base without the proper personal protective equipment, it dawned on me what my Diamond Tip should cover this week. Before riding, Air Force members need to take, at a minimum, the Motorcycle Safety Foundation Basic Rider Course. You will need to have the proper PPE on, including a helmet, long trousers, long-sleeve shirt or jacket, full fingered gloves, a bright upper garment during the day and a reflective belt across the upper garment at night. You must also wear boots that cover the ankles.

Before every ride, perform a safety check of your motorcycle; check tire inflation, fluid levels, ensure your turn signals and brake lights are operating and get any required maintenance done as soon as possible. On the road, it is your job to leave a safety area between you and the vehicle in front of you. YOU have to pay attention, not only to what you are doing, but to what the other drivers on the road are doing. More than likely, they are not looking for bikers; they are probably looking at text messages or talking on the phone. Last year, the Air Force lost 14 members due to motorcycle accidents and two members were listed as being totally disabled. I don't want to attend any funerals for any bike riders here at Charleston. I care about you as part of the Joint Base Charleston team, and I am sure your loved ones do not want to see anything bad happen to you either. Be careful and watch out for yourselves and each other.

Local first shirt named best in AMC By 2nd Lt. Leah Davis Joint Base Charleston Public Affairs Master Sgt. Steven Hart, 628th Security Forces Squadron, first sergeant was selected as the 2011 Air Mobility Command First Sergeant of the Year March 21. Twelve finalists competed in four categories to become AMC's nominees for the Air Force-level competition for the 12 Outstanding Airmen of the Year. Those categories included junior enlisted, non-commissioned officer, senior NCO and first sergeant. Hart is currently deployed with the 387th Expeditionary Security Forces Squadron in support of Operation Enduring Freedom at a non-disclosed base in Southwest Asia. “Master Sgt. Hart is an excellent first sergeant who truly cares about the troops,” said Lt. Col. Frances Dorish, 628th Security Forces Squadron commander. “He is always willing to devote the extra time and effort to help Airmen and ensure their concerns are taken care of.” In 2011, Hart led a 499-member joint person squadron through 63 deployments, three operational readiness exercise fly-away missions and an operational readiness inspection.

You never have to guess what you need someone to talk to without being judged and I am here are going to get from Master Sgt. Hart. You know.”

CAF: Programs help conquer the Pillars from page one “CAF reflects the essence of what we expect in strong ‘wingmen’ and close-knit communities, creating perfect conditions for individual and organizational resilience to take root. The goal should be a healthy culture where Airmen and their families are resilient but are not afraid to seek help or support when they need it. Agencies around the base have fully embraced the CAF concept by offering a wide variety of classes that support each pillar of CAF,” McMeekin added. A few classes offered here at JB Charleston – Air Base are: Stress or Anger Management: Do you find yourself feeling angry or stressed more often than you would like or regret how you act when you are upset?

Some classes are also offered through Leadership Pathways, which is located at https://afkm.wpafb.af.mil/community/views/home.aspx?Filter=OO-ED-AM-39. “A chain is only as strong as its weakest link,” said McMeekin. CAF provides the answer to that. It’s about reinforcing the weakest link so the chain remains strong. If even one member or family is struggling, then an entire office, unit, squadron or base can be impacted. One broken or weak link impacts the safety, security and stability of the chain. We must be comprehensively-fit Airmen who are committed to building a resilient and healthy community.” For more information on the classes, contact the Airman and Family Readiness Center at 963-4406, the Fleet and Family Support Center at 764-7480, the Base Chapel at 9632536, the HAWC at 963-4087, Family Advocacy at 963-6972 or Mental Health at 963-6852.

JB Charleston women celebrate Women's History Month at retreat ceremony By Tech. Sgt. Scott Mathews 315th Airlift Wing Public Affairs

Airmen from Joint Base Charleston fold the flag during an all female retreat ceremony March 23. About 40 women from the 628th Air Base Wing, the 437th Airlift Wing and the 315th AW took part in the ceremony.

Women have always played a vital role in peacetime and wartime contingencies in the military, although not necessarily in an official capacity. From the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps to current day fighter pilots, the military wouldn't be the same without women. On March 23, about 40 women from the 628th Air Base Wing, the 437th Airlift Wing and the 315th AW took part in an all female retreat ceremony to celebrate Women's History Month. "The flag detail was made up of four female chief master sergeants, two from the 628th ABW, one from the 437th AW and one from the 315th AW," said Chief Master Sgt. GiGi Manning, 315th AW command chief.

Manning added she was proud to be a part of the ceremony where she was the non-commissioned officer in charge of the flag detail. "Women in the military are important because they are a microcosm of America," said Manning. "We wouldn't be where we are today without the leadership of some of these outstanding performers." Manning went on to say that it is important to lead by example. "I look at women in the military as being role models to which little girls can aspire to be one day," said Manning. The Department of Defense states on their website that they support the continuation and empowerment of military women as they risk their lives to protect our nation. "Everyone brings something to the table regardless of gender," said Manning. "Any person that wants to be a patriot should have the opportunity if they meet the criteria."

Airmen from Joint Base Charleston salute the flag during an all female retreat ceremony March 23 to celebrate Women’s History Month. About 40 women from the 628th Air Base Wing, the 437th Airlift Wing and the 315th AW took part in the ceremony.

628th Medical Group facilities become tobacco free By Lt. Col. April Broome 628th Medical Group Health Care integrator Effective March 31, the 628th Medical Group at Joint Base Charleston will join other military treatment facilities across the Air Force Medical Service and will enjoy a tobacco-free campus status. The tobacco-free campus medical buildings include Bldg. 364 (Main Clinic), Bldg. 1000 (Mental Health and Education and Training), Bldg. 1001 (Logistics Warehouse), Bldg. 631 (Bioenvironmental) and Bldg. 697 (Warehouse). The Air Force Surgeon General has stated tobacco use is inconsistent with a fit and healthy force and continued use of tobacco products by Airmen has a negative impact on the Air Force mission. There are about 4,000 chemicals in cigarettes. When the chemicals in cigarettes are inhaled, they put your body into a state of physical stress by sending these poisons, toxic metals and carcinogens coursing through your bloodstream with every puff. Those chemicals effect everything from blood

pressure and heart rate to the health of your organs and immune system. The Center for Disease Control reports that tobacco use is the single most preventable cause of death in the United States. Each year, cigarette smoking and exposure to secondhand smoke causes 443,000 deaths, or one out of every five deaths in the United States. "I strongly feel that the transition of the 628th MDG to a tobacco-free campus is instrumental to the ongoing success of our tobacco cessation program and to our goal of ensuring Comprehensive Airman Fitness,” said 1st Lt. Nathan Ley, 628th MDG smoking cessation coordinator. “As a Medical Group, it is important that we project a positive image not only to our patients, but also to our fellow Airmen and civilians. This projection should be that we do not condone or permit the use of tobacco on the campus of the 628th MDG. "The short-term and long-term benefits from tobacco cessation are astounding. Short-term benefits include: immediate reduction in resting heart rate and blood pressure, decreased blood carbon monoxide levels, improved sense of smell and

taste and also a substantial improvement in lung function leading to a decrease in phlegm production, coughing and wheezing. The long-term benefits of tobacco cessation are endless; however, the most prominent are a reduction in the risk of heart disease, stroke, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cancer (not only lung cancer) and premature death." It is the 628th MDG's goal to provide the healthiest environment possible for our beneficiaries and staff. In an effort to support a tobacco-free campus, the Health and Wellness Center will provide valuable resources on tobacco cessation and smoking prevention programs for individuals who may have difficulty quitting smoking. Current smokers may contact the Health and Wellness Center at 963-4087 for tobacco cessation information and all beneficiaries may call the American Lung Association Quitline at 1-877-695-7848 or the South Carolina Tobacco Quit Line at 1-800-QUIT-NOW (784-8669). Additional questions or concerns can be addressed to Lt. Col. April Broome at 963-6726.

Air Force officials announce third round of VERA/VSIP Courtesy of Secreteary of the Air Force Public Affairs In its continuing effort to meet the Defense Department requirement to maintain civilian manning at fiscal 2010 levels, the Air Force is offering a third round of Voluntary Early Retirement Authority and Voluntary Separation Incentive Payment beginning May 1. "The Air Force recognizes the invaluable contributions of our civilian workforce, but also recognizes the fiscal constraints under which the Department of Defense and the government as a whole are operating," said Maj. Gen. Sharon Dunbar, the Director of Force Management Policy. "Our civilian workforce is near required target levels, and we're focused on fine tuning the force while taking care to minimize the effect on our current permanent civilian workforce and their families." As the Air Force continues the fiscal 2012 civilian workforce

restructure, round three of VERA/VSIP will be used to further realign and rebalance the civilian force. In addition, the Defense Civilian Personnel Advisory Service has granted a temporary waiver exception to the Priority Placement Program to expand the use of VSIP across installations. The Air Force Personnel Center will be providing additional details to the Civilian Personnel Sections on the waiver criteria. Civilian employees will receive VERA/VSIP eligibility surveys from their local CPSs May 1, and applications are due the week of May 14 or an earlier date established by local authorities. Applicants approved for this round of VERA/VSIP will need to separate no later than Aug. 31. "We are committed to maximizing voluntary separation measures to preclude involuntary actions," Dunbar said. "However, as we progress toward the end of the fiscal year, it is apparent some bases will need to rebalance the skills of their workforce into

other enduring positions." The processes available to rebalance or re-skill the work force include using reduction-in-force procedures to determine employee placements rights into enduring vacancies as well as providing the flexibility to waive qualifications for more placements. In that regard, the bases will begin their preparations for submitting their requests for approval to use RIF procedures so as to have their employees realigned to the continuing positions by Sept. 30. Personnel with questions regarding civilian restructuring should contact the Joint Base Charleston - Air Base Civilian Personnel Office at 963-4500 or for general information about force management programs and other personnel issues, visit the Air Force Personnel Services website at https://gumcrm.csd.disa.mil.

The Patriot • March 30, 2012

Airman honors women, schedules luncheon By Airman 1st Class Tom Brading Joint Base Charleston Public Affairs When an Airman believed more could be done to celebrate 'Women's History Month' she stood up and did something about it. Her determination to make a difference sent her on a mission throughout Joint Base Charleston to honor all women, past and present. Senior Airman Rachel Bublitz, 628th Logistics Readiness Squadron customer service representative, took on the task of organizing a luncheon to celebrate women's history. The luncheon was held March 29 at the Charleston Club. With the support of her leadership at the 628th LRS and Staff Sgt. Michelle Humphrey, 628th Air Base Wing command chief executive assistant, Bublitz began the 'short-notice' task of organizing a Women's History Luncheon. "I thought organizing a luncheon would be a perfect way to honor women," said Bublitz. "So I did just that. However, the lunch wasn’t to just honor the women who serve or have served in the military, but every woman, from mothers to grandmothers. Every woman deserves to be appreciated for their hard work." Bublitz credits her Air Force resiliency training to overcoming life's challenging obstacles, which inspired her to organize the Women's History Luncheon.

"I'm a single mother," said Bublitz. "From raising my son, studying for promotion, completing my everyday work duties, organizing the Women's History Luncheon and preparing for an upcoming deployment, it's safe to say things can sometimes get overwhelming for me. However, those overwhelming aspects of my life are what strengthen me as a woman." Her story, like countless other women at JB Charleston, is one of empowerment. Due to this, "empowerment through education" was the theme for the luncheon. Dr. Annette West, who spoke during the Black History Month Luncheon, was the guest speaker at the Women's History Month Luncheon. Although remembering the historical figures in Women's history is important to Bublitz, equally important to her is honoring everyday women of today, ones who are empowering their children by raising them in a world that promotes women's equality and keeping the legacy of empowering women alive. "The luncheon wasn't just for women," said Bublitz. "The idea is for a bigger purpose, which is promoting overall equality." Bublitz believes many other women at JB Charleston have also overcome their own respective challenges and, according to her, a great way to manifest those challenges in a supportive environment was by attending the Women's History Luncheon.

Airman forecasts clear skies as TV weatherman By Airman 1st Class Tom Brading Joint Base Charleston Public Affairs Every night, thousands of families across South Carolina gather around their television sets to watch the evening news. For more than 25 years, they have entrusted Bill Walsh, a two-time Emmy Award Winner, to provide them accurate and updated weather conditions as the on-air chief meteorologist at WCSC-TV Live 5 News in Charleston, S.C. As one of the most recognizable faces in the Lowcountry, it is still surprising to some of Walsh’s viewers that he is also Lt. Col. Bill Walsh, 315th Airlift Wing Chief of Public Affairs. “Sometimes viewers will see me in my military uniform and they often ask if I’m acting in a movie,” said Walsh, who has played minor roles in the past on “The Young and the Restless.” “I let them know that I’m not only a weatherman, I’m also an Airman.” Walsh serves as the official spokesperson for the ‘busiest unit in the Air Force Reserve’ while managing all public relations aspects of a military organization consisting of more than 2,600 personnel. As an Airman, Walsh has been on many humanitarian missions across the globe. One of his most memorable missions was to Vietnam where he was selected to be one of a few servicemen tasked with bringing the remains of soldiers back to the United States for a long awaited burial. “The repatriation mission to Hanoi is a testament to why I do what I do,” said Walsh. “It’s rewarding to be a part of something bigger than myself, and all of the lives impacted by the humanitarian missions I’ve been a part of, like the one to Vietnam, are examples of why I serve in the military.” In addition to the humanitarian mission to Vietnam, Walsh assisted in a mission to Afghanistan during Barack Obama’s first visit to the country as President of the United States. Other missions have taken him to Iraq, Honduras and Haiti. During a humanitarian mission to Haiti, Walsh escorted news media, including ABC news correspondent Katie Couric, after the devastating earthquake in 2010. “I work in news broadcasting,” said Walsh. “However, when I’m in my military uniform I work for the Air Force. It’s

important to separate the careers, but sometimes I take what I’ve learned from the two and apply them to each other.” Walsh performs additional roles while working at Joint Base Charleston. He has been the White House press lead for multiple high profile presidential visits, press lead for the 2011 Charleston Air Expo and supervises the 315th Airlift Wing Public Affairs staff, where he has won multiple awards including Public Affairs Officer of the Year at the national Air Force

Reserve level. “I’m no different than anyone else serving our country,” said Walsh. “I’m just a reservist that happens to be on TV. However, there are countless others that wear the same military uniform. A reservist may be your doctor, teacher or next to you at the grocery store. They play vital roles in protecting our country and it’s important to always be thankful for the selfless job they do.”

Original Tuskegee Airman: Shares military legacy, fight for equality By Airman 1st Class Ashlee Galloway Joint Base Charleston Public Affairs He stared at the faded black and white photograph, his eyes filling with tears as his mind overflowed with nostalgic thoughts of a different era. It was a time when the United States was at war; not only against other countries, but also at war against itself for racial equality. The photo he gripped tightly in his furrowed hands contained a younger version of himself along with other men, all dressed in military uniforms, smiling as they posed in front of a B-25 bomber. However, their smiles did not reflect the turmoil that was prevalent at the time. His name is Edward 'Gibby' Gibson and he is a Tuskegee Airman. "If I could do it all over again," said Gibson, pausing as he lowers the photo from his sight, "I would." Gibson was born in 1922 and growing up in Charleston, S.C., racial segregation was an everyday part of his life. But even in the segregated south, Gibson had dreams of soaring above the prejudice. He was fascinated with airplanes; however, he never dreamed that fascination would one day bring him soaring through the clouds as a Tuskegee Airman. In fact, Gibson simply wanted to be treated like everyone else. "Back then, my family didn't have much money. I would mow yards all day and only make 50 cents doing it. All of my money went towards buying model airplanes that I put together myself," said Gibson. As Gibson grew older, his education became more expensive, which meant spending less money on his beloved model airplanes. "I was the only African American at an all white school," said Gibson. "The tuition was $3.50, and even that was challenging for my family to afford. Instead of buying model planes, any money that I made went toward my education." Gibson was drafted into the Army Air Corps in 1942 and was stationed at Walterboro, S.C. Due to his outstanding education and work ethic, he was allowed to test to become an officer. After successfully passing his examination, he was sent to aviation cadet training at Keesler Army Airfield in Biloxi, Miss. Gibson's dream of flying airplanes for the United States military was becoming a reality. He was one of only four cadets chosen from Keesler AAF to go to the Tuskegee Tuskegee Airman Edward Gibson poses (back row, right) in front of a B25 bomber with his crew during World War II. Gibson served in the Army Air Corps as a bombardier-navigator and logged 2,300 flight hours.

Institute at Tyndall Airfield in Panama City, Fla. Gibson was part of a program called the "Tuskegee Experiment." The program taught African Americans how to fly and maintain combat aircraft. A Tuskegee Aircrew consisted of pilots, navigators, bombardiers, instructors, maintenance personnel and support staff, all of whom played a vital part in keeping their planes in the air. "I was so excited when they chose me to train at the Tuskegee Institute," said Gibson, who served as a bomU.S. Air Force photo / Airman 1st Class Ashlee Galloway bardier. "It was the most Tuskegee Airman Edward Gibson smiles for the camera at Joint Base Charleston - Air Base Feb. 16. thrilling experience of Gibson served in the Army Air Corps as a bombardier-navigator and logged 2,300 flight hours. my life." Despite enduring constant ridicule and prejudice by many discourage Gibson. After being released from jail, he went to Godman Field, white service members, Gibson, along with the other Tuskegee Airmen, persevered. They were determined to do Fort Knox where he became a bombardier navigator for the their part in fighting the war. However, in the grand scheme of 477th Bombardment Group, 616th Squadron flying B-25 bombers. While Gibson and his crew were training for the things, they were changing the U.S. military forever.

After separating from the Reserve, Gibson, along with "I was so excited to go home and see my family after I was commissioned," said Gibson. "My family was so proud to see seven other African American men, were chosen to take an me wearing my aerial gunner uniform and I was able to show exam for an apprentice program at the Charleston Naval the world that I was an officer in the military for my wonder- Shipyard. These men were the first African Americans to be accepted into the program, however, they were once again ful country." However, when Gibson returned home, he didn't receive a subject to racial discrimination by their white co-workers. "The instructor at the shipyard wouldn't help me because of warm welcome from everyone. "I was walking down the street and some white military the color of my skin," said Gibson. "He wouldn't answer my officers came up to me and asked where I got my uniform," questions, made life difficult for us and even used some pretsaid Gibson. "I told them I ty offensive language.

First Air Force female four-star general confirmed Courtesy of the Secretary of the Air Force Public Affairs. WASHINGTON – The Senate confirmed Air Force Lt. Gen. Janet Wolfenbarger for promotion March 26, making her the first female four-star general in Air Force history. Wolfenbarger currently serves as the military deputy in the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition here and she is one of four female lieutenant generals in the Air Force. "This is an historic occasion for the Air Force," said Secretary of the Air Force Michael B. Donley. "General Wolfenbarger's 32 years of service, highlighted by extraordinary leadership and devotion to duty, make her exceptionally qualified for this senior position and to serve as the next commander of Air Force Materiel Command." "I am honored to have been confirmed by the Senate for promotion to the rank of General and to serve as commander of Air Force Materiel Command. Until I take command of AFMC, I

will continue to focus on the important Air Force acquisition work here at the Pentagon," said Wolfenbarger. Wolfenbarger, a native of Beavercreek, Ohio, was commissioned as a second lieutenant in 1980 after graduating in the first class with female cadets at the Air Force Academy. She also holds a graduate degree in aeronautics and astronautics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge. The general has held several positions in the F-22 System Program Office at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio; served as the F22 lead program element monitor at the Pentagon, and was the B2 System program director for the Aeronautical Systems Center, Wright-Patterson AFB. She commanded ASC's C-17 Systems Group, Mobility Systems Wing and was the service's director of the Air Force Acquisition Center of Excellence at the Pentagon, then served as director of the Headquarters AFMC Intelligence and Requirements Directorate, Wright-Patterson AFB. Prior to her current assignment, Wolfenbarger was the vice commander of

Air Force Materiel Command, Wright-Patterson AFB. She has been awarded the Distinguished Service Medal, the Legion of Merit, the Meritorious Service Medal, the Air Force Commendation Medal, the Air Force Achievement Medal, the National Defense Medal and the Global War on Terrorism Medal. Wolfenbarger received her third star in December 2009 and became the Air Force's highest-ranking woman in January 2010. Women currently make up 9.1 percent of the Air Force's general officer ranks. In addition to the 4 female lieutenant generals, there are 12 major generals and 11 brigadier generals. "This is an exciting time that pays homage to the generations of female Airmen, whose dedication, commitment and sacrifice helped open the doors for General Wolfenbarger and other female Airmen who will follow," said Air Force Chief of Staff General Norton Schwartz. Gen. Wolfenbarger's change of command at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio is scheduled for June 5.

Weighing in on the Final Four By Airman 1st Class Tom Brading Joint Base Charleston Public Affairs University of Kentucky Wildcats versus Louisville Cardinals; two schools from the bluegrass state, their respective campuses less than 70 miles apart, will face each other on the grandest stage in NCAA Basketball, the Final Four, deep in the heart of Bayou country. The schools haven’t faced each other in NCAA tournaments since the Midwest Regional in 1984 and never in the Final Four. This game could be the biggest thing from Kentucky since thoroughbred horse racing. Before the upcoming game, top-seed Kentucky continued their blaze on the tournament by crushing Baylor 82-70 in the Southwest regional final March 24, placing themselves in the Final Four. In-state rival, Louisville, had already defeated the University of Florida 72-68 March 24. At a glance, Louisville is not a championship caliber team. However, looking beyond the statistics it gets very clear they do have something to slow the “unstoppable” Wildcats. They exhibit a defensive full-court press that not only slows down their opponents, but as the clock winds down their opponents get sloppy and turn the ball over.

Louisville’s impressive Sweet 16 upset over top-seed Michigan State 57-44 is a prime example of their basketball style. However, it’s not likely Louisville will be slowing UK down anytime soon. The teams faced each other during the regular season on New Year’s Eve at the Wildcat’s home, Rupp Arena, where UK not only beat Louisville by seven but was in control of the ball most of the game. Bottom line: University of Kentucky will defeat Louisville Cardinals 76-64. Bourbon Street isn’t just being invaded by the Bourbon state; two other schools, both very familiar with winning, will also be contesting their chances at being the national champions. Those schools are the Ohio State University Buckeyes and the Kansas Jayhawks. Ohio State sophomore forward Jared Sullinger will be the determining factor to the Ohio State, Kansas game. On paper, they are easily one of the best teams in the nation. Every player from Deshaun Thomas to veteran William Buford are vital to the team, but it all starts with Sullinger. Sullinger proved his team was tournament ready by overcoming a rocky regular season (going two for three over five

games in February) to knocking top-seed Syracuse out of the tournament. Sullinger will be the big name in the Big Easy and defeat Kansas to go onto the championship game. Bottom line: Ohio State University Buckeyes will defeat Kansas Jayhawks 68 – 64. That brings me to the championship game; University of Kentucky Wildcats versus Ohio State Buckeyes. Kentucky has beaten four tournament opponents, including my Indiana Hoosiers, with an overall average of 14 points. However, Ohio State has done similar damage in their bracket by defeating four tournament teams with an average of 12 points a game. In the end, I don’t think anybody, including Sullinger, can slow down Anthony Davis, Doron Lamb, Terrence Jones, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, Darius Miller and Marquis Teague. They all commonly have double digit games, which is just a testament to why the Wildcats scored more than 100 points against Indiana. In the end, the Kentucky Wildcats will be bringing their fifth NCAA national championship home to the Rupp Arena in Lexington, KY. Bottom line: University of Kentucky Wildcats will win the national championship over Ohio State 82-76.

Judo leader visits Joint Base Charleston By Dr. Ronald Charles Samurai Judo Association senior instructor United States Judo Association President Gary Goltz traveled from California to visit the Samurai Judo Association at Joint Base Charleston - Weapons Station March 7. The Samurai Judo Association, led by Dr. Ronald Charles, trains at the JB Charleston - Weapons Station Morale Welfare and Recreation gym and is the largest club in the U.S. Judo Association. Goltz, a seventh degree black belt was accompanied by O.J. Solar, a sixth degree black belt and conducted a free seminar for area Judo and Jujitsu practitioners. Approximately 35 martial artists, ranging from beginner to ninth degree black belt, attended the event to learn new techniques and share skills of this Olympic sport. Though most on the mat were active duty, participants included a few dependents, Department of Defense personnel and retired military. Jujitsu, the art of self-defense, focuses on combat and streetworthy techniques and strategies for practical application. MWR offers free Judo and Jujitsu classes for active duty personnel about four times per week at the MWR athletics facility in Bldg. 725 at the Weapons Station. Adult dependents and DoD employees and their adult dependents are eligible to attend but pay a token fee for the class. Adult beginners as well as experienced martial artists are welcome. Participants are required to have or purchase a uniform and join the U.S. Judo Association.
