Airman Leadership School typically serves as an enlisted Air Force member’s first professional military education. Recently, it has not only developed leadership abilities in Airmen, but also the skills of members in other branches of service.

Joint Base Charleston’s ALS graduated its first Navy Sailors May 3. Petty Officer 2nd Class Japheth Tillman, Naval Health Clinic Charleston, Petty Officer 2nd Class Crystal Medina, 628th Communications Squadron and Petty Officer 2nd Class Bradley Nguyen, 628th Security Forces Squadron, completed the fiveweek course along with 32 Airmen from JB Charleston.

The ALS program consists of 192 hours of primarily guided discussion, classroom methodology, experimental activities and exercises and case studies. The course consists of five Air University core areas: Profession of Arms, Warfare Studies, Leadership Studies, International Security Studies and Communication Studies.

“Both the Air Force and Navy gained a greater appreciation of each other’s service. All the students were able to see differences between the Air Force and Navy but understood their roles and how they work together,” said Master Sgt. Louis Gosseck, JB Charleston ALS commandant. “The lessons taught here at ALS are common key elements that each person will use to improve their supervisory and leadership skills.”

Although the Sailors were at ALS to learn about leadership and supervisory roles, they also were able to educate Airmen on the Navy.

Innovation comes in all shapes and Bank of America sizes in the 437th Maintenance Group closing on base By 1st Lt. Juliana D'Amore 437th Airlift Wing executive officer

Innovation ... it is the way ahead for the Air Force and Col. Erik Hansen, 437th Airlift Wing commander, is taking steps to ensure the 437th AW will continue to thrive and fly in the 21st century in an environment that encourages innovative ideas from every Airman.

Hansen toured an impressive array of innovative projects occurring throughout the 437th Maintenance Group, May 2.

The 437th Aerial Port Squadron jump-started Hansen's tour with briefings on three exciting new projects. Senior Airman Erika Williams explained an ongoing Rapid Improvement Effort which will create a self-help room for Traffic Management Office customers, streamlining paper processing for service members moving in and out of the Charleston area and allowing them to be reimbursed in a timely manner. Hansen expressed his appreciation to

Williams and her team and recognized the leadership of their supervisor, Master Sgt. Nonglaks Dyer, saying, "It is the openness to change on the part of supervisors that will be one of the key components to the success of an innovative culture."

Capt. Douglas Todd, also of the 437th APS, briefed Hansen on a new process, that if adopted, has the potential for Air Mobility Commandwide implementation, where strategic ports, such as Charleston, will use "opportunity airlift" instead of relying solely on regular commercial shipments for Mission Capable parts ... parts needed immediately in order to maintain the Air Force Fleet. Opportunity Airlift will enable high-volume ports to load MICAP parts on a mission going to a base where the part is needed faster than a commercial shipment. This seemingly simple idea could save AMC many hours of non-mission capable aircraft time.

Jon Kidder also explained an incredible new See Innovation, Page 13

COMMENTARY

Commentary by Army Gen. Martin Dempsey Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff

WASHINGTON – Commanders and Leaders of the Armed Forces: Sexual assault crimes strike at the health, welfare and dignity of our service members and undermine the readiness of our Force. As military professionals we must fully understand the destructive nature of these acts, lead our focused efforts to prevent them and promote positive command climates and environments that reinforce mutual respect, trust and confidence.

Sexual assault among Servicemembers is a problem we face together, one that can only be solved together. In doing so, we will Keep Faith with Our Military Family – they should expect nothing less, and Renew Our Commitment to the Profession of Arms – we should demand nothing less.

Strategic Direction released today is written for commanders and leaders to improve awareness of sexual assaults, operationalize our commitment and facilitate dialogue and open communications across our formations.

The Joint Chiefs and Commandant of the Coast Guard, together with our DoD Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Program professionals, penned this guidance to synchronize those efforts. Together, we will opera-

tionalize the concerted efforts of the DoD SAPR Office and our Service programs with renewed commitment to eliminate sexual assault crimes within our ranks.

Commanders and leaders at every level must integrate the intent, lines of effort and tenets of this Strategic Direction as a part of our daily command routines and activities. We must take conscious steps to understand, identify and reduce environmental risks, predatory and high-risk behaviors and personal vulnerabilities associated with sexual assaults or other abuse crimes.

It is up to you, as commanders and leaders, to safeguard our core values and Service cultures by promoting a climate and environment that incorporates SAPR principles as habitual and inherent characteristics of our commands.

Commanders and leaders must personally read, understand and implement this strategy. We are fully committed to supporting your efforts to put this Strategic Direction into action and operationalize SAPR within your commands across the Joint Force. We will set the conditions for you to take positive actions that reinvigorate our military culture and create command climates and environments based on mutual respect, trust and confidence.

You have our respect, trust and confidence.

AMC: Maintaining a Global Lifeline

Commentary by Maj. Gen. Rick Martin Headquarters AMC Director of Operations

SCOTT AIR FORCE BASE, Ill. – More than a decade after the start of American involvement in Afghanistan, pilots and aircraft belonging to a global mobility enterprise headquartered amidst the cornfields of Illinois here continue to provide a lifeline for thousands of Americans overseas.

Each day, Air Force C-17 and C-130 aircrews provide critical resupply to U.S. troops deployed to isolated outposts, part of a counterinsurgency strategy that places them among the Afghan people.

Lt. Col. David Preston, commander of the 801st Brigade Support Battalion and 1st. Sgt. Brian Gemmill, Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 1st Battalion, 506th Infantry Regiment, recently described their experience to a group of Air Mobility leaders. Serving in an austere existence at combat outposts in Afghanistan's Paktika province, nearly 80 percent of the locations lacked running water and many had no sewage, a single hot meal a day was a luxury, and frequent showering was a logistical impossibility. In this environment, fuel and water were among the most important commodities and because of the terrain nearly three quarters of the outposts could only be resupplied via air, they added.

Most of the time, that resupply is part of a carefully orchestrated 96-hour air tasking order planning process that is based on forecasted, "regular" requirements. However, flexibility has and remains a key characteristic of the process. In practice, this means that high-priority or emergent requirements can be completed within a matter of

How it works in the real Air Force

Commentary by Master Sgt. Chris Stagner Robert Gaylor NCO Academy

LACKLAND AIR FORCE BASE, Texas – Chief Master Sgt. of the Air Force James Roy recently issued a call to arms for all enlisted Airmen in his perspective paper: "Now is the time for bold leadership."

In this message, he states it is up to the enlisted force to lead with integrity and return stability to the enlisted performance report system.

Specifically, he said of his message sent to command chiefs, functional managers, and major command commanders and vice commanders, "the theme of the message was that too much arbitrary guidance could prove to be counterproductive. As supervisors, the more leverage we have to deal with situations on a case-by-case basis, the better."

The response to this message and the resulting discussions has been phenomenal – and varied.

Opinions range from enthusiastically supportive to continued concern about the system.

I'm currently attending the Robert Gaylor NCO Academy at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas, and the theories behind leadership are something we discuss every day. Based on what we're being taught here, I find it hard to understand the confusion about the chief's message.

We're taught to communicate with our Airmen.

We're taught to provide constant feedback to our Airmen. We're taught to establish standards for our Airmen and, more importantly, hold them to the standards we establish. We're taught to counsel those same Airmen if they fail to meet our standards.

So ponder me this: If we are all doing this every day, if we're actively leading our Airmen versus passively leaving them to do their jobs, if

we're training our Airmen and are involved; how can writing an EPR with integrity be so difficult?

Why do we constantly hear, "That's not how it's done in the real Air Force?"

I learned early in my career not to expect a 5 EPR. My second EPR, as a matter of fact, was a 2 referral. As an entitled Airman, I was furious with the rating. How could I warrant a 2 referral with the amount of effort I put into the job every day?

How could my supervisor ruin my career? She explained to me very simply that she'd established standards, and I'd failed to meet them. It took years and a number of supervisory experiences of my own before I understood what she meant: No one deserves a rating; we all earn our ratings.

NCO academy lesson plans say the same thing: establish standards, hold subordinates accountable to those standards, provide feedback constantly and rate fairly. If all of us are being taught the same way, why aren't we executing those simple expectations in "the real Air Force"?

Chief Master Sgt. Craig Howell is the commandant of the Robert Gaylor NCOA. He's spent 15 years involved in professional military education and eight years as a first sergeant. He's also spent a great deal of time asking himself this same question.

"Having dissected it (the enlisted evaluation system) over the last 28 years, our EES is probably the most perfect I've seen," he said. "However, it is misunderstanding, misuse, and sometimes abuse and fear of supervisors to do the right thing that makes the system appear broken."

During our discussions in class about this very topic, many of my classmates have stated they've given 5 ratings because they didn't have the paperwork to justify a 4 or a 3. Those statements perfectly support Howell's statement.

Why would you need paperwork to justify a 4 EPR? A 4 is an excellent rating. You don't need a letter of counseling to receive a 4 on your EPR. You need to come to work, do an excellent job, be involved in your community and pursue your education.

Did you read what I just wrote?

In order to earn a 4 on your EPR, you need to come to work, do an excellent job, be involved in your community and pursue your education. That is what qualifies you as a 4 – being excellent.

It's been said that leaders refuse to allow less than a 5 (which is a topic for another day since no one can tell you how to rate your Airmen) because it reflects negatively on leadership.

Comic book hero Thor says, "I say thee nay." I tend to agree with him on this one. So does Howell.

"It's not a reflection on leadership when a follower is less than perfect," he said. "Sometimes it's a battle of will instead of a battle of skill. No one is perfect all of the time."

So how do we fix this? How do we move from this "broken" system into a fixed one? Do we as enlisted leaders require someone else to tell us how to do our jobs and lead our troops? Do we need a quota system to tell us how many of our Airmen are allowed to shine? Do we ask for a switch back from EPRs to APRs? A mulligan, perhaps?

No. In order to fix this system, all we have to do is what we're taught in PME. All we have to do is follow Roy's direction and be bold, confident leaders who take care of our Airmen.

If that's not how it's done in "the real Air Force," then it is up to us to have the integrity to make it so.

No one can do that but us.

Five enduring areas of performance

The Patriot • May 11, 2012

COMMENTARY

Commentary by Col. James Hodges 6th Mission Group Commander

MACDILL AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. – As a group commander and a colonel in the Air Force, I often have the opportunity to mentor people. Throughout the many mentoring, counseling, feedback and other sessions where I've assessed performance and provided direction for future improvement, five enduring areas of performance have emerged as keys to success. In order of priority, they are superior performance in primary assigned Air Force duties, professional military education, civilian education, base community service, and local community service.

The five performance areas are described by their importance and the amount of time that must be invested in them.

It is easiest to portray them as individual slices of one larger pie, as represented in the accompanying graph.

The most important area and the largest "piece of the pie" is superior performance in primary assigned duties. The Air Force recruits, trains, and retains Airmen to accomplish very important missions – to Fly, Fight and Win! Accordingly, all Airmen need to strive to be the best they can be in their jobs.

That is what makes our Air Force the best in the world and allows MacDill to boast it hosts the best Air Mobility Wing on the face of the planet! As the Air Force gets leaner, it's more important than ever that Airmen continue to do their best and embody "Integrity First, Service Before Self and Excellence in All We Do," in order to accomplish our

missions.

Furthermore, when individuals consistently show their professionalism and competency while performing their primary duties, not only does the mission get accomplished, but their teammates, supervisors, and subordinates learn to trust and rely on them.

Finally, when Airmen perform their duties in a sustained, superior way, they set themselves apart from their peers and get recognized.

The second performance area is professional military education. I often comment that if people are "in to" something, such as a particular sport, they want to learn more about it.

For example, I spent time in Alabama last year and was amazed at how much people there knew about the University of Alabama and Auburn sports teams. They knew school history, current players, team game plans and much more. Just as those Alabama residents were "in to" their college sports teams, we need to be "in to" the Air Force culture, heritage, strategy and other issues related to our profession, as this type of knowledge makes Airmen better Air Force leaders and "Air Minded" ambassadors.

Completing professional military education programs such as Airman Leadership School, Non-Commissioned Officer Academy, Squadron Officer School, and Air Command and Staff College gets Airmen outside of their normal day-to-day jobs to meet with peers in an academic environment.

Finally, completing professional military education helps

show they are just the type of motivated, competitive Airman the Air Force is looking for.

The third area is civilian education. The Air Force is looking for bright people with a broad range of knowledge who can solve problems. Our technically oriented force demands people with such skills and abilities.

Civilian education helps Airmen sharpen their minds and become better problem solvers. It also helps Airmen strive for self-improvement in ways that can help them achieve their personal goals while also serving their country.

Additionally, attending college courses often puts Airmen into contact with interesting people from the local community who can expand the Airmen's professional and social network.

Finally, educational achievement is recognized universally as a mark of accomplishment and an indicator of "whole person" attainment.

The fourth area is service to the base in areas outside of normally assigned duties. There are many activities and events base leadership need done throughout the course of a year that do not fall neatly into the purview of any one unit.

Therefore, Airmen are needed to join together on teams, committees, or other organizations outside of the normal unit structure to get these activities accomplished. Serving in support of such activities goes against the traditional creed from basic training where young Airmen are sternly told, "Don't volunteer for anything!"

Joint Base Charleston hosts Street Smart 2012

By Glenda Middleton 628th Air Base Wing Safety Office safety technician

The Joint Base Charleston Safety Office will host the Stay Alive From Education "Street Smart" program May 21 from 8 to 9:30 a.m. and 3 to 4:30 p.m. at the JB Charleston - Air Base Theater and from 12:30 to 2 p.m. at the JB Charleston - Weapons Station Theater.

Street Smart is not a lecture. It is an audience interactive workshop designed for young adults offering attendees a real-life view of their options. S.A.F.E. members take the audience into the real-life drama experienced by firefighters and paramedics as they work to save the lives of individuals who have made poor choices when it comes to drinking and driving, using drugs or not wearing seat belts. The goal of the S.A.F.E. program is to offer young adults information allowing them to make rational decisions concerning their safety and well being, thus

reducing injuries and fatalities, giving them the opportunity to become responsible and healthy adults.

The leading cause of death and injury among young adults in the United States is from trauma caused by accidents. Driving behaviors of young adults cause the majority of these accidents. Consequently, young adults are causing many of their own trauma related deaths and injuries.

Joint Base Charleston is one of 75 military installations the Street Smart program will visit across the United States and overseas. This presentation is part of the 2012 Anheuser- Busch sponsored military initiative.

S.A.F.E., a non-profit organization created by firefighter paramedics in Florida, is dedicated to the nation-wide reduction and elimination of trauma related death and injury of young adults due to high-risk behaviors.

Celebrating our uniqueness - Nurses and Technicians' Week May 6-12

By Senior Airman Melinda Burpee 628th Flight Medicine Clinic medical technician

The American Nurses' Association designated May 6 to 12 as National Nurses' Appreciation Week with the theme, "Nurses: Advocating, Leading, Caring." The weeklong celebration honors nurses and medical para-professionals and the contributions they have made across the nation. During this week, Americans are also encouraged to consider nursing as a profession to support the wellness of our country.

There are currently 2.9 million registered nurses and more than 500,000 medical paraprofessionals in the healthcare field, dedicated to saving lives and improving the health of millions of Americans.

Most nurses and technicians enter this profession for the challenges and satisfaction they hope to receive. From helping a family welcome a new baby or supporting a family as they lose a loved one, nurses continue to make a difference in people's lives. These

professionals are highly skilled, well-educated in anatomy, physiology, assessment, disease processes and prevention, drug therapy and alternative treatment of both adults and children.

The opportunities in nursing are boundless: inpatient and outpatient clinical nursing, nursing education, informatics, home healthcare, nurse practitioners, anesthesia and midwifery are just a few. There are more than 60 professional nursing organizations that promote nursing excellence and offer specialty certification, including the American Nurses' Association. Almost all states require nurses to receive annual continuing education to maintain their nursing skills and licensure.

Military nurses and medical para-professionals offer their own unique skills in the defense of our nation. In addition to adhering to all civilian nursing requirements, military nurses and medical technicians are held to the stringent standards of all members of the Armed Forces and are integral to the success of our worldwide deployable Expeditionary Medical Support readiness mission. Their

Performance - from Page 3

In the Air Force, the opposite is true. We NEED Airmen to volunteer, otherwise, these other important activities and events cannot happen. Serving on such teams, committees, or organizations can be very rewarding personally and expand the group of colleagues and friends Airman have around the base. A wise chief once told me the highest performing, "whole person" Airmen do at least one thing to serve at the unit, group and wing levels every year.

The fifth and final area is service to the community outside of the base. There are a great many needs in American society today that require the contribution of private citizens. I firmly believe Airmen are outstanding Americans who have so much they can offer to selflessly support their fellow citizens in addition to their Air Force service.

Whether Airmen mentor young people as Big Brothers or Big Sisters, build homes with Habitat for Humanity, volunteer to feed the homeless, or address another need, there is a cause in the local community that can suit their passions and skills. Such service

not only benefits the needy, but also reinforces a habit of selflessness in our Airmen and puts them in contact with members of our local community in a very positive way.

Local citizens, whether they are the ones in need or serving the community themselves, will appreciate and recognize the assistance of our Airmen. Airmen who provide their time and talents helping out in the local community endear us with our neighbors outside the base gates.

In conclusion, if Airmen strive for excellence in these five performance areas, Air Force missions and community needs will be better served. Additionally, through performing their primary duties and also getting outside of their normal comfort zone, Airmen will increase their networks of professional and social contacts they can call upon.

Finally, Airmen who fully exemplify each of these areas will naturally stand out among their peers, will achieve their professional and personal goals, and will personify the "whole person" concept the Air Force values so greatly.

628th SFS pays tribute during Police Week In 1962, President John F. Kennedy signed a proclamation designating May 15 as Peace Officers Memorial Day and the week in which that date falls as "Police Week." The first official memorial service took place May 15, 1982. National Police Week was founded to pay tribute to the law enforcement officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country and to voice our appreciation for all those who currently serve on the front lines of the battle against crime.

To recognize those who have paved the way for all law enforcement officers, the 628th Security Forces Squadron will be hosting a week of events in honor of National Police Week, May 14 to 18. The events will be held at various locations on Joint Base Charleston.

On May 14, the 628th SFS will host a National Police Week Golf Tournament at Wrenwoods Golf Course with a shotgun start at 8 a.m. This event is open to all base personnel. Contact Staff Sgt. Brandon Brown at 963-3639 or send an email to brandon.brown.11@us.af.mil.

The 628th SFS will host the base fire department in a day full of competition known as the "Guns and Hoses Fitness Challenge," May 15. They will compete in numerous events including a game of paint-

ball at 8 a.m. At 10:30 a.m., the two will collide for a game of Defender Ball followed by a combat challenge at 1:30 p.m. The day will conclude at 3 p.m. with a softball game at the Naval Weapons Station softball fields.

Spectators are welcome and encouraged to attend.

The 628th SFS will host a pistol shoot competition May 16 at 8 a.m. at the Combat Arms Training and Maintenance range. To register a team, contact Senior Airman Joshua Lien at 963-1121 or email him at joshua.lien@us.af.mil.

At 11:30 a.m. on May 16, the 628th SFS will have a Chili Cook-Off and Pie in the Face Contest for 628th SFS members.

On May 17, the 628th SFS will provide combat arms and Security Forces vehicle displays. There will also be demonstrations held by the Security Forces K-9 and Raven Sections. This event will be held at the JB Charleston - Air Base Exchange from 9 a.m. to noon and from 3 to 5 p.m. at the JB Charleston - Weapons Station Community Center.

McGruff "The Crime" Dog will provide safety tips and identification kits for the children.

The 628th SFS Key Spouses will also be conducting bake sales at both locations.

To end the week, the 628th SFS will conduct a Memorial Ceremony and Retreat at the base flag pole, paying tribute to fallen members of the law enforcement community, May 18 at 4 p.m.

JB Charleston Exchange rolls out new prices for children's wear

By Joe Puryear Army & Air Force Exchange Service Public Affairs

A recent North Dakota State University study found that the average American household spends about 3.8 percent of their income on clothes. With children consistently growing out of shirts, pants and dresses or wanting the latest and greatest brands, keeping the kids attired can prove an expensive endeavor.

Fortunately, the Army & Air Force Exchange Service recognizes that investing in kids doesn't have to break the bank as they have unveiled a new pricing strategy for all children's' wear.

The strategy consists of five price points: $5, $10, two for $15, $15 and $20.

"From shirts to sleepwear, we are dedicated to helping growing families," said Angela Mauras, JB Charleston Exchange's general manager. "The price points are clearly marked in the stores, making it easy for parents to outfit their kids without busting the budget."

Chapman takes 'fini flight' at JB Charleston

Story and photos by Michael Dukes 315th Airlift Wing Public Affairs

During his last week as 315th Airlift Wing commander, Col. Steven Chapman, flew his final C-17 flight May 3.

Chapman landed with a big smile on his face as the Globemaster III – sporting his wing commander colonel placard in the window – made its way beneath an arc of water spraying from two Joint Base Charleston fire trucks.

His smile was reflected in the face of his wife Janet as she marshaled his jet to a parking spot in front of Base Operations.

Power was cut to the engines, then a crowd of more than 100 people cheered and applauded as Chapman made his way down the stairs to the tarmac. The colonel's shared smile with his wife was abruptly interrupted by Tech. Sgt. Logan Cathcart, a 317th Airlift Squadron loadmaster, who poured a cooler of ice water over the commander's head. Simultaneously, Chapman’s wife sprayed champagne on her husband.

After the wing commander was thoroughly soaked and had a moment to regain his composure, a line quickly formed by the onlookers seeking the opportunity to shake his hand and bid him farewell.

Chapman will be assigned to Robins Air Force Base, Ga.

data program he developed which shows, at the click of a button, the current position, weight and destination of any pallet of cargo and keeps a history of such information as well. The program is projected to save more than 500 man-hours per year.

Hansen then made his way to the 437th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron and was briefed by Staff Sgt. Thomas Deaton on flightline truck improvements, Master Sgt. Paul Holland on tool crib renovations and Tech Sgt. Salvatore Sciortino on the installation of wireless network access for Digital Technical Order Laptops in order to eliminate queuing at LAN stations for publication updates.

Hansen's visit to the 437th Maintenance Squadron's Aerospace Ground Equipment shop included a briefing by Tech. Sgt. Michael Kraft on their new equipment and organization.

Hansen's final stop was the 437th Maintenance Operations Squadron where Staff Sgt. Daniel Hersom, Tech. Sgt. Wallace Kirtz and Master Sgt. Mark Rogge explained their automation of aircraft jacket files, the maintenance leadership morning package and emergency checklists which have saved the squadron thousands of dollars per year in paper and printing costs.

At the conclusion of the tour, Hansen stressed that any innovation, from the 437th APS opportunity airlift to the paper savings in the 437th MOS, is vitally important to the wing and Air Force mission and saves time and money as well as pushes the command toward its ultimate goal - developing a truly innovative culture.

To continue growing the innovative culture, Hansen will be hosting a series of Commander's Calls in the upcoming weeks that will emphasize the importance of innovation to the 437th AW and the Air Force as a whole.

315th AW Airmen earn CCAF degrees

Story and photo by Senior Airman Bobby Pilch 315th Airlift Wing Public Affairs

Airmen from the 315th Airlift Wing received their degrees from the Community College of the Air Force in a graduation ceremony held at the Joint Base Charleston - Air Base theater, May 6.

The CCAF offers enlisted Airmen the opportunity to earn an associate in applied science degree or a professional certification certificate in one of several fields of study.

Approximately 73 graduates received CCAF degrees specializing in areas such as Information Systems Technology, Logistics and Health Care Management.

"Obtaining your degree is truly your key to professional development," said Senior Master Sgt. Eric Keys, 315th AW Force Development and Education office superintendent.

"Your CCAF degree stays with you for the rest of your life and is a testament to your drive for success."

The CCAF is a federally-charted, degree-granting institution that serves the United States Air Force's enlisted servicemembers. They partner with more than 90 affiliated Air Force schools, 82 Education Service Offices located worldwide and more than 1,500 civilian academic institutions to serve more than 320,000 active, guard and reserve enlisted personnel, making CCAF the world's largest community college system.

"Education benefits don't end with receiving a CCAF, they extend to achieving a bachelor's, master's and professional military education," said Keys. "There are a number of programs available to assist members in furthering their educational goals."

Established April 1, 1972, the CCAF has awarded more than 335,000 associate in applied science degrees and students have earned more than 1.6 million hours of college credit.

"I invite all members, enlisted and officers to contact their education office to help identify which benefits are available and right for them," said Keys.

To learn more about the CCAF, follow on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/CCAFFB or go directly to the website at http://www.au.af.mil/au/ccaf/ Locally, Airmen can visit the Force Development and Education office located in Bldg. 51 at JB Charleston - Air Base.

Motorcycle safety remains top priority for defense leaders

By Army Sgt. 1st Class Tyrone C. Marshall Jr. American Forces Press Service

WASHINGTON – Preventing motorcycle accidents and fatalities remains a top priority for Defense Department leaders, a senior defense official said today, with training and awareness reducing the number of incidents. “We had seen fatalities and accidents increasing as motorcycle ownership increased,� Joseph Angello, DoD’s director of operational readiness and safety, told the Pentagon Channel and American Forces Press Service. In 2008, the peak year for fatalities, he added, 124 service members died in motorcycle accidents.

“Since that time – through training, through emphasis, through leadership [and] through the phenomenal work of our military services – we’ve brought that number down,� he said. “We lost 92 [service members] last year, and this year our trends look like we will be at that level or less.�

Every loss is tragic and affects spouses, parents other family members, the service member’s unit and the Defense Department, Angello said. “We don’t want anyone to lose their life in a motorcycle accident,â€? he said. “We want them to drive safe; we want them to wear protective gear – helmets, appropriate shoes, appropriate attire, and leathers. ‌ But sometimes, the best protection against a motorcycle accident is awareness, training and

Panetta: Service members must represent best of America

By Jim Garamone American Forces Press Service

WASHINGTON – It is more important than ever that service members exercise judgment in the age of Twitter, You Tube, Flickr, I-Phones and Facebook, Defense Secretary Leon E. Panetta told troops at Fort Benning, Ga., today.

The secretary spoke to the men and women of the 3rd Heavy Brigade Combat Team of the U.S. Army’s 3rd Infantry Division. He spoke about how the actions of a very small number of service members have affected crucial operations.

Today, it can take only seconds for a photo to become an international headline, Panetta said. “And those headlines can impact the mission that we’re engaged in,� the secretary said. “They can put your fellow service members at risk. They can hurt morale. They can damage our standing in the world, and they can cost lives.�

When videos can go viral overnight, the actions of a few can impact the lives of many, Panetta said. For example, he said, once word that soldiers at Bagram Airfield, Afghanistan, had accidently burned Muslim holy books got out, more than 30 Afghans died in the rioting that followed. The Taliban seized that incident – and others such as Marines urinating on enemy corpses, and soldiers posing with body parts of suicide bombers – to recruit Afghans to their side. “I know that none of you ‌ deliberately acts to hurt your mission or to put your fellow soldiers at risk,â€? the secretary said. “You are the best. And that’s why I’m here today. To tell you that I need you, that I need your leadership, that I need your courage – that I need your strength to make sure that we always abide by the highest standards.â€?

The incidents that occurred in Afghanistan are the work of a tiny percentage of service members, Panetta said. “I represent 3 million people, 2 million in uniform,� he said. “It’s a very small percentage of people who sometimes make these terrible mistakes.�

Still these incidents concern leaders all the way to the Pentagon and White House. This is because “a few, who lack judgment, lack professionalism, lack leadership can hurt all of us and can hurt all of those men and women who serve this country with distinction,� the secretary said.

Panetta stressed that the incidents concern leaders because “our enemies will seek to turn ‌ these incidents in their favor at the very moment that they are losing the war.â€?

The 3rd Brigade will deploy again – the unit deployed to Iraq for four tours – and the secretary said he needs all service members to live the values of the United States. “Always remember who you are and the great country that you serve and that we are all part of,� he said. “You are part of the best fighting force on the face of the earth. Never forget that.�

Panetta emphasized that the members of the brigade have a responsibility to look after their comrades and to properly represent the American people.

The secretary also discussed recent events in Afghanistan, noting last year was a “turning point� there.

The Taliban, he said, have lost momentum as coalition and Afghan forces have secured many areas in Afghanistan. And despite great efforts, he added, the Taliban and their terrorist allies were not able to recapture a single square acre. “Al-Qaida’s leadership, including bin Laden, has been decimated,� the secretary said. “We recognized the first-year anniversary taking down bin Laden. Let me tell you, that was due to the military professionalism of soldiers who went in there and did a mission that they do time and time and time again in Afghanistan. It was for that reason that I was confident that that mission would be accomplished.�

Afghan forces have grown in size and capabilities, Panetta said. Today, Afghan forces protect more than 50 percent of the population. Later this month a further tranche of areas will begin the transition process. “By the end of summer will mean that 80 percent of the Afghan population will be under Afghanistan security and control,� the secretary said.

Service members need to keep their minds in the game, the secretary said. “If we keep our eye focused on this mission ‌ we will defeat al-Qaida,â€? Panetta said. “We will deny them the ability to rebuild; we will deny them the safe haven that they used to plan an attack on our country. “Too much precious blood has been spilled, too much progress has been made to lose sight of the mission now,â€? he added.

control. That’s your best protection.�

As a motorcycle rider since age 11, Angello said, he knows how much fun riding can be. But it’s important for riders to respect the fact that motorcycles also are inherently dangerous, he added. “It takes effort to ride a motorcycle properly,� he said. “Accidents happen in the blink of an eye, [and] those mistakes are unforgiving.� Riders who ride safely 99 times out of 100, he added, can experience a “high regret factor� the one time they don’t.

The director noted motorcycle training is mandatory for all DoD personnel. In addition, military personnel are required to wear personal protective equipment, such as long sleeves, eye protection and helmets, even if they are in a “no-helmet� state. “If you are a military member and you want to ride a motorcycle, you must have the training,� Angello said. “Each of our services – a lot of them are common courses – have a basic motorcycle safety course. You must take it or a refresher course, an advanced rider course, or a sports bike course.�

The Navy and Marine Corps developed the sports bike course in 2008 and shared it through the Defense Safety Oversight Council Private Motor Vehicle Task Force. “Sports bikes are phenomenal pieces of engineering, with power-toweight ratios like we’ve never seen before,� Angello said. “As a result, they are very dangerous. If ridden properly, it’s enjoyment – it’s fun. But they are unforgiving.�

Numerous deployments over the last decade have had an impact on the number of service members involved in motorcycle accidents, Angello said. “We have noted, and other studies have noted, there is an increase in motorcycle accidents when people return from deployment,� he said. “Our data shows [it happens] particularly within the first year when returning from deployment.�

Theories as to why these fatalities are occurring include service members not having the opportunity to ride a motorcycle during deployment or the change in driving conditions when they’re back home, Angello said. “Others talk of theories such as, ‘You become ‘bulletproof’ from your experience in theater, and you take more risks at home,’� he said. “Whatever the cause, we in DOD are taking it very seriously. When people return from deployment our leaders are ensuring people get trained.�

Angello, who noted he has taken motorcycle training himself, urged all service members to take advantage of “some of the best training offered in this nation.� “Right now, the courses are for service members,� he said. “Some of the installations, on a space-available basis, make arrangements for family members. However, any military member who has a dependent who wants to ride a motorcycle – they should be trained.�

Angello lauded military leaders for their commitment to addressing motorcycle safety for having “offered courses that make a difference in people’s lives,� and urged all military members to be ready to ride, just as they are ready for the mission when they serve in uniform. “Ready to ride – right equipment, right training, right conditions,� he said. “Keep your awareness up, and you’re ready to ride.
