The Air Force is not just a job, it’s a profession COMMENTARY

Commentary by Col. Russell Fingar 315th Airlift Wing commander

As I approach the end of my military service I know that I will miss it terribly. As a traditional reservist, I hold positions in both the public sector and military service. My civilian occupation is enjoyable and in fact more financially rewarding than my military service, but there is no comparison when it comes to the fulfillment I gain from being a part of delivering freedom and hope throughout the world while wearing the Air Force uniform. Without any disrespect to the fine folks I work with at my civilian job, working with the men and women of the 437th Airlift Wing, 315th AW, and 628th Air Base Wing, gives me much greater satisfaction. They are a tremendously committed, talented and professional group. As Airmen, we do our jobs not for the money or praise, but because it's the right thing to do.

Change … it’s inevitable so embrace it

Commentary by Master Sgt. Nicole Bishop 628th Comptroller Squadron first sergeant

There are some people that don't handle change very well. I am not just talking about the older generation of Airmen but also younger Airmen. Anytime something new happens or business practices are revamped, Airmen can become upset and uneasy. Avoidance to change is not conducive to shaping a successful Air Force. Since the inception of the Air Force, change has been inevitable; the best advice I can give to every Airman is to "embrace" it. I have been in the military for 19 years and during that time I have been involved in a number of changes. Many of the younger Airmen have no idea what the "bike test" is, or that the Enlisted Performance Report rating system use to be on a 10-point scale instead of a five. In my earlier years, deployments were rare. Nevertheless, the great thing about change is that for the most part, it is best for everyone involved. With the change to the physical fitness standards, we now have a healthier, stronger force able to sustain the high-ops tempo we currently face. Additionally, the change to the EPR rating sys-

tem streamlined the process to ensure we retain the best Airmen to go on to lead. The "if it isn't broken, don't fix it" mentality has to end. Although something may not be broken ... it may still need to be fixed. According to AFI 36-2618, the Enlisted Force Structure, Airmen and noncommissioned officers in charge tiers are responsible to, "Develop innovative ways to improve processes and provide suggestions up the chain of command that will directly contribute to unit and mission success." Senior noncommissioned officers in charge are responsible to, "Promote a culture of Airmen capable of adapting to evolving Air Force requirements throughout a career." Implementing change may be the biggest challenge for most Airmen, but there is an easy method to getting others on board. How do you effectively fulfill your Airman, NCO and SNCO responsibility? Just think of ice cubes. Ice is just frozen water, but in the liquid state you are able to mold the water to form into different objects. In order to implement change, you first have to unfreeze individuals to the new concept; sell your idea or theory. Give those being affected a "heads up" on what to expect. In the unfreezing process, answer questions and

address concerns as much as possible and set the individuals at ease. Once they are knowledgeable about the change and all the concerns have been addressed, you have to re-freeze the individuals. Make the change positive. Lead by example by displaying acceptance. Make sure to follow up so your Airmen don't start melting along the way. Remember to continually reinforce the benefits of the change, because once your people are on board, it is smooth sailing. Like I said in the beginning, change is inevitable. What can you change for the better? As Airmen, NCOs and SNCOs, we can't think of change as a bad thing or punishment. Take a step back and look at the big picture. Don't focus on how new ideas or revamped procedures are going to affect you, focus on how it will better your unit and the Air Force. It is every Airman's responsibility to be an active participant in creating an evolving Air Force. Every quarter you should ask yourself, "Am I contributing to the evolution of the Air Force?" If the answer is no, then the next question should be, "How can I make myself, my unit and the Air Force better?" Purposefully strive to make the Air Force better, if not for you then for those who will come after you.

New selection process for all civilian supervisor positions Commentary by Michael Petersen 628th Air Base Wing Equal Opportunity director

Your Joint Base commanders have helped foster and model an Equal Opportunity initiative that demonstrates commitment from agency leadership, integration of EO into the agency's strategic mission and management accountability. They have created a new operating instruction to ensure objectivity throughout the Joint Base installation concerning the hiring process for civilian appropriated fund supervisor positions. Filling vacant positions at the supervisory level is extremely important and requires thoughtful planning. Agencies can best defend selection decisions by taking steps to ensure hiring officials can articulate the precise reasons for choosing one candidate over another. This can be achieved by using specific and documented selection procedures and interview questions that apply to all candidates for a particular position and by asking an unbiased agency official to review selection decisions. It is also important to develop a useable plan for retaining any records or interview notes that specifically indicate why a candidate was chosen. Giving a legitimate explanation for selection means providing specific

reasons for why candidates were selected. It is not necessarily an expression of finely tuned instincts or "gut" feelings. In many instances, providing inadequate reasons for selection decisions risks a possible finding of discrimination. Generally, a recommending official's statement, which includes the observation that the selectee "seemed like a good candidate," falls short of articulating why the official believed the selectee was superior. Commanders may endorse the use of a unit selection panel team committed to interviewing and or selecting a person for civilian supervisor positions. The panel should be assembled for the express purpose of selecting an appropriate candidate for an unfilled position and organized in a manner that is clearly recognizable for that purpose. The selection panel process is beneficial because it provides varying perspectives, helps eliminate biases and benefits the employing unit by involving the right employees in the hiring process. Air Force promotion policy is based on strict conformance with merit principles specified in Title 5 Code of Federal Regulations, Part 335. Merit promotion and placement provide a uniform and equitable means of referral and selection for all placement actions. A sound promotion program, properly administered and fully supported by managers and employees at all levels, is essential to the staffing of an effective and highly motivated civilian workforce.

Be careful what you post; it could hurt your career Commentary by Staff Sgt. Frances Kriss 62nd Airlift Wing Public Affairs

JOINT BASE LEWIS-MCCHORD, Wash. – Social media quickly became a widespread form of interactive communication and has been incorporated in the way people conduct business, including the military. Since it was a fairly new concept a few years ago, we had the freedom to post whatever opinions we had on our personal social media sites without any kind of reprimand or punishment. There are now strict policies in place to regulate social media and whatever is posted online can land service members in deep trouble. Certain actions can be punishable under the Uniform Code of Military Justice. An example occurred last year when a staff sergeant assigned to the 62nd Aircraft Maintenance Squadron received an Article 15, got a stripe taken away, had to pay $500, and received a reprimand for posting inappropriate comments on Facebook. Another example that appeared on national

media was Marine sergeant who affiliated himself with the tea-party and criticized President Barack Obama on his private Facebook page. His security clearance was suspended and he now faces an other-than-honorable discharge. It's important to remember that we all raised our right hand and recited an oath, where we said we will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over us. Therefore, there are certain comments we shouldn't announce publicly. There are also limitations when it comes to

political, religious and ideological views. Use common sense when you post on social media sites – it has the potential to reach thousands and possibly millions of people around the world. In addition, once something is posted, it's really difficult to take it back. Even if the post is deleted, there's no guarantee that no else saw it, shared it, or re-tweeted it. Being on social media is like being on the spotlight. If you post on your profile section that you're affiliated with the Air Force or have pictures of you in uniform, then you are essentially representing every Airman in the United States. We must keep in mind that whether we are active duty, Guard or Reserve, in or out of uniform, we still represent the Air Force and the U.S. armed forces. We have an image to uphold and we want to continue being America's highest-rated U.S. institution. Bottom line, be careful posting opinions on social media sites because it's now punishable under the UCMJ and one small remark or photo is not worth ruining a career.

JB Charleston uses ELMR to bridge geographical gap By Staff Sgt. Nicole Mickle Joint Base Charleston Public Affairs

628th Communications The Squadron recently saved $3.5 million by leveraging the Navy's Enterprise Land Mobile Radio solution at Joint Base Charleston. By utilizing the existing Weapons Station ELMR solution to expand on the Air Base, the 628th CS was able to generate an investment savings of $3.5 million. ELMR equipment has been in operational use since Feb. 25, 2012, at the Air Base. Land Mobile Radios are hand-held voice devices, much like a walkie talkie, used to speak on any Ultra High Frequency range over a network of equipment designed to enhance signal strength and quality. The ELMR System is a non-tactical Navy Installation Command-sponsored conformant trunked land mobile radio system. This system is being implemented Navy-wide and will eventually interconnect all Navy sites onto one comprehensive communications network. "The Navy was utilizing an ELMR network that essentially put the NWS on

a grid of other ELMR systems which enabled the master control site to view and route voice traffic to any user on the network," said Tech. Sgt. Nathaniel Swab, 628th CS Transmissions Systems noncommissioned officer in charge. "It enables a user on the Weapons Station to speak with users at other sites such as Norfolk, Va., Jacksonville, Fla. or any other user on the network." The system change required coordination between the 628th CS and the ELMR master site in Norfolk. The old LMR equipment, used by the Air Base, had to be replaced with equipment that was compatible with the Navy's ELMR system. Once the equipment was installed, the site was added to the network. The Air Base can now connect to the Weapons Station, as well as an entire network of ELMR users worldwide. "One of the key benefits of the ELMR system is that it offers another means of local communication to be monitored at a long range in case of a disaster scenario," said Swab. "First responders can be aided from afar because a controller can listen to real time on-site responders without having to be in the disaster zone."

ELMRs are primarily used for quick, coordinated responses between first responders and provide centralized communication capabilities via handheld units, mobile and base stations. The ability to relay information between installations in the event of a natural disaster or emergency situation is critical. "First responders can coordinate operations across one channel for two sites," said Swab. "In the past, the two towers, one located on the Weapons Station, and the other on the Air Base, were not able to talk to each other. The ELMR puts both sites on one network. This allows dispatchers to reach first responders at two situations if needed. In the future we are looking at a goal of joining civilian first responders to our extensive ELMR network." "This was huge in affording first responders and the installation commander the ability to rapidly bridge the geographical gap between the Air Base and Weapons Station to maintain situation awareness and relay critical, crisis information," said Lt. Col. David Joerres, former 628th CS commander. "It's an exciting time to be a cyberspace operator."

Navy announces Suicide Prevention Video contest

MILLINGTON, Tenn. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Navy is seeking tech savvy, creative Sailors to share their skills while helping communicate an important message in the Suicide Prevention Public Service Announcement Video Contest. "This is an exciting opportunity for Sailors to promote seeking help as a sign of strength," said Cmdr. Robert Dews, director of Sailor and Family Readiness, Community Support, OPNAV N135F. "Whether it's a Sailor reacting to work-related stress who talks to a fellow shipmate, or a spouse seeking help for a

Sailor who seems withdrawn from family life, we must be supportive during stressful times by advocating that it's okay to speak up and get help," Dews added. The goal of the contest is to promote awareness of suicide warning signs and bystander intervention from a Sailor's point-of-view. SPPSAC video submissions must convey at least one of the two 2012 core suicide prevention program messages: "It's Okay to Speak Up When You're Down" and/or "Life is Worth Living." Some element of Ask Care Treat (ACT), an acronym to

remind Sailors and their families of what they can do if they encounter a shipmate, friend or loved one who may need help, should be incorporated into all submissions. The contest begins today and individual and team submissions will be accepted postmarked or uploaded to the FTP site through Aug. 24. Criteria for evaluating entries will include storytelling ability, originality, creativity and technical quality. The SPPSAC is open to active-duty, Reserve and full-time-support Sailors. The winning submission will be broadcast on Direct-to-Sailor

Television and provided to the American Forces Network and Pentagon channel. For more contest rules and entry information read the SPPSAC Standard Operation Procedure, available on www.suicide.navy.mil.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Naval Facilities Engineering Command Southeast awarded an $8 million contract July 13 to Ikhana, LLC, a small business out of North Charleston, S.C., for work to be done at Joint Base Charleston, S.C. "I am proud to say that NAVFAC Southeast continuously demonstrates its commitment to ensure that maximum opportunity is made for small businesses," said Nelson Smith, NAVFAC Southeast deputy for small business. "Last month, NAVFAC Southeast also awarded a contract in Albany, Ga., to five contractors where two were 8(a) contractors and three were small businesses." Ikhana, LLC, will be responsible for construction of a new readiness and training facility for the Air Force Reserve Command

Red Horse Squadron. The operations and training facility will include classrooms, administrative space, mobility equipment storage and a vehicle maintenance shop. "We are proud to be a part of this project as it is our first at Joint Base Charleston," said IKhana President Jeff Davis. "We are an up and coming 8(a) firm that is doing really well competing with other small businesses regarding federal projects." Smith explained that the maximum practicable utilization of small business concerns is a matter of national interest with both social and economic benefits. America's 27 million small businesses employ more that 58 percent of the private work force, generate more than 51 percent of the nation's gross domestic product, and are the principal source of new jobs. Work for this project is expected to be completed by October 2013.
