(Inset) The first skid marks from a touch-and-go are emprinted on the pavement of the newly opened runway from the C-17 flown by Hartford and Fontanella. The newly constructed runway is 9,000-feet long and 150-feet wide and 18-inches thick at a cost of approximately $40 million. The runways at Joint Base Charleston are part of a dual-use airfield and are shared with the Charleston County Aviation Authority and private industry. The new runway will be capable of supporting Air Force mission requirements and also serve the local community. In addition, the project added high efficiency LED lighting fixtures, improved infrastructure for navigational aids and an updated aircraft arresting system used to safely recover fighter aircraft experiencing mechanical issues.

COMMENTARY
Commentary by Lt. Cmdr. Anthony Seifert 841st Transportation Battalion deputy commander
To all Airmen, Sailors and Soldiers, be it known that Summer is traditionally known for two things: hot temperatures and a bevy of change of commands. This is a time of cleaning out your spaces and sprucing up the surroundings to put on a show of how perfect things are at your command. Your old boss is ready to move on to their next challenge. They have worked hard and are coasting down-hill in their final days, so the tensions are likely low at command meetings and social gatherings. You have figured out the daily to monthly schedule or "battle rhythm" and the requirements are usually not much different than what was planned. Command morale is great and
you are thinking of re-enlisting or extending in beautiful, perfect Charleston. Charleston, your new boss says, "is where I am going to make my mark. It is where I am going to ensure I make flag. It is the place where I can make a difference and apply all my skills that I have attained prior to taking command." That means that you are in for some change! Not just any change that you may be use to, but significant change from the once leisurely, comfortable command that you have grown to love and support for the past several years. Days grow longer, requirements get piled on top of requirements, and you start watching your leave build up as you wait for a much needed vacation. The command suddenly needs to be "fixed," the font you use on Power Point is all wrong, the freshly painted buildings need to be
Diamond Tip: Why am I here?
By Senior Master Sgt. Jack Fox 628th Logistics Readiness Squadron first sergeant
Why am I here? Recently, I had to ask myself this question. I had become so caught up in the day-to-day administrative process, work, school, family and personal issues that I lost focus on the reason I am here. Fortunately I am surrounded by the best people in the world, between my outstanding first sergeant peers, members of my squadron and all of my fellow wingman across Joint Base Charleston. From within this group, I received a needed gut check and remembered the reason I am here is to be a servant leader. What is a servant leader? It's really very simple; a servant leader is someone who practices the idea of first serving, then leading people. This philosophy was developed by Robert Greenleaf in the 1970s. He stated, "Servant leaders serve the people he/she leads." This implies that your people are an end in themselves rather than just a means to a finished product, organizational purpose or bottom line.
To remind myself of this, I thought about our second core value: service before self. Then I remembered the term sergeant originated from the Latin term serviēns and literally means to serve. Does "I joined the Air Force to serve my country" ring a bell?" I looked up the definition of service and found Merriam Webster defines it as "the contribution to the welfare of others." I don't think there is a better definition than this one. Now back to Greenleaf's philosophy. He offered 10 keys to servant leadership: 1. Listening: effective communication is critical and receiving the message is the key. 2. Empathy: understanding the feelings of others and being able to feel how other people feel. 3. Healing: a willingness to help other people solve their own problems. 4. Awareness: being observant, perceptive and sensitive to changes. 5. Persuasion: to influence with openness and honesty, not to manipulate in order to get
things done. 6. Conceptualization: seeing the big picture. 7. Foresight: visualizing long term outcomes of current plans and operations. 8. Stewardship: caring for individuals and the job (mission) while simultaneously building a strong team. 9. Commitment: deliberately developing future leaders and assisting them achieve results. 10. Building a community: every individual knows what the goal is and they have an important part in its achievement. This list is not all inclusive. As long as serving people is the outcome it does not matter how you get there. I would recommend taking what you can use from this list and or coming up with your own ideas of serving others. The bottom line resonates in a familiar saying that goes, "take care of the people first, and the people will take care of the mission." To my fellow first sergeants, squadron members and JB Charleston teammates, thanks for the reminder. I needed it.
Navy's training headquarters' civilians part of SAPR 'One Team, One Fight' By Ed Barker Naval Education and Training Command Public Affairs
PENSACOLA, Fla. – As part of the training ensuring every member of the Department of the Navy team understands that Sexual Assault in all forms is unacceptable, civilian staff members from the Naval Education and Training Command is conducting Sexual Assault Prevention and Response training Aug. 20. - Sept. 18. Sexual Assault Prevention: One Team, One Fight is mandatory training for all DON civilians and must be completed before Oct. 1. The training is designed to meet Congressional, Department of Defense and DON requirements as part of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012. Opening the One Team, One Fight training is a video which includes an introduction by Secretary of the Navy, Ray Mabus: "This important training program is critical to the success of our Department of the Navy as a safe and secure work environment - that's true for all Sailors, Marines and civilians; we're all a team. But there's a problem that affects our safety and our mission readiness and I'm talking about sexual assault. On average, three sexual assaults are reported every single day. And that isn't the whole story, because a lot of sexual assaults go unreported. Sexual assault is real and it is a crime. It violates our military code of conduct and there's
absolutely no place in our Navy and Marine Corps for sexual assault, period. Sexual assault harms team morale. It erodes the trust that binds our organization together, it undermines our operational readiness, and it tarnishes our reputation. It also violates the trust of the families who have placed the well-being and safety of their family members in our hands. As secretary, I'm personally committed to eliminating sexual assault throughout the DON, because we are a family. It's up to all of us to protect each other." Mike Stahl, SAPR program manager for NETC, is coordinating the civilian training at headquarters and throughout the domain. Stahl also serves as one of the facilitators for the headquarters training. "We have more than 4,000 civilians working side-by-side with our military members at NETC activities, so it's vital to include them in this important effort," said Stahl. "Civilians are an integral part of our training and education culture, and they need to be armed with the same type of information which was provided to our service members during the SAPR standdown, SAPR Leadership and Fleet training sessions." The civilian SAPR training is approximately 90-minutes long and consists of 30-minutes of video followed by guided group discussion. Class size is designed to average 30 participants, with multiple classes scheduled to include all civilians. In addition to two facilitators, an area Sexual Assault Response Coordinator or a SAPR Victim

This is all new, but really the same when you think about it. New boss, new expectations, new missions, new budgets ... CHANGE! That is all we are really talking about. The military is always changing and most of the time, it is for the better. We need change. We need new eyes, new ideas and new opinions. The Marines say it best, "Improvise, adapt and overcome!"

Advocate is present during the sessions to provide support to any sexual assault survivors in the audience. Anne Ballensinger, SAPR victim advocate from the Naval Air Station Pensacola Fleet and Family Support Center, participated in the training. Ballensinger is often the first one to take the call that a sexual assault has taken place. "This new training is provided to ensure that every member of DON understands that sexist behaviors, sexual harassment, and sexual assault are not tolerated, condoned or ignored," said Ballensinger. "Every member must be treated with dignity and respect; all allegations of inappropriate behavior must be taken very seriously; and victim privacy must be protected while treating them with utmost sensitivity. Additionally, bystanders must be motivated to step in and intervene in a situation that doesn't seem right while we hold offenders accountable for committing these crimes." Additional information and resources to combat sexual assault are available at http://www.sapr.navy.mil. Sexual assault affects Navy readiness, and the Navy is committed to preventing sexual assault.

AF announces PT test enhancements to start Oct. 1
By Staff Sgt. David Salinitri Secretary of the Air Force Public Affairs
WASHINGTON – Air Force senior leadership announced enhancements to the Air Force’s Physical Fitness Assessment program, to be implemented Oct. 1. In a letter to Airmen Aug. 20, Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Mark Welsh III explained the results of the comprehensive review, highlighting the strength of the program and the need for slight improvements. “We have a tremendous program that has fundamentally changed the Air Force’s overall fitness level over the past few years,” Welsh said. “The PFT itself is not going to change. But even the best program can be improved upon, so we are making changes in four different areas to enhance the overall program.”
Of the changes coming Oct. 1, the most significant is to the abdominal circumference portion of the test. The AC assesses an Airman’s body composition. Since the Air Force implemented the newest fitness program guidelines in October 2010, only .03 percent of Airmen have failed the AC portion of the test and passed the other three components with a composite score of 75 or higher. “In the future, if an Airman fails the AC portion of the test, and passes each of the other three components, we’ll measure that Airman using the Body Mass Index taping guidance in DoD instructions,” Welsh said. “If the Airman meets the DoD BMI standard, they pass the PFT.” Because AC measurement is integrated into the testing procedure, the Air Force is currently the only branch of the Department of Defense not required to have a separate weight management program.
The other program modifications include realigning the fitness appeal process back to wing commanders, adjusting passing standards for Airmen who can only test on one component of assessment, and changing and simplifying the walk test. In addition to these efforts, senior leaders are reviewing how fitness performance is documented on performance reports as part of a larger effort to examine the performance report itself. Those results are expected in the near future. Though senior leaders are looking to improve the current fitness program, Welsh said he is proud of the Air Force program, and the physically fit culture it has helped to cultivate. “I believe we have DOD’s best designed, best run fitness program, and as a result, we have a force ready for any mission our nation asks us to execute,” he said. “I’m extremely proud of how far we’ve come with our fitness culture.”

A Beautiful Place On The Ashley River To Honor And Memorialize Veterans
CERT program inspires local teens as first responders By Senior Airman Tom Brading Joint Base Charleston Public Affairs
The Teen CERT program is a Community Emergency Response Team. Interested youth ages 14 through 20 years old can become a part of a unique exploration program that prepares and trains for basic disaster response skills (fire safety, light search & rescue, etc.) The organization's message is to train, educate and inform teens in the South Carolina counties of Berkeley, Charleston and Dorchester. In addition, their mission is to let local teens (including military) experience the pride and responsibility as serving as a first responder. "This program is a great way to give
back to our younger generation and help them see there are many opportunities to succeed in life and help others doing so," said Staff Sgt. James Sweet, 437th Operations Support Squadron combat crew operations. "I have been part of this group for a short period of time, but since joining as an advisor, there is no better feeling than watching those you mentor making good life decisions." Whether you want to be part of an Emergency Service Career Field or not, this group will benefit teenagers by building leadership skills, social skills and receive important training such as CPR and how to prepare for any natural disaster. "We are really trying to expand our group, both in certified teens and advisors,
Veteran Garden
so we can support Charleston PD special events, after school activities (Berkeley, Charleston, and Dorchester) counties for parents who cannot commit to drive their children everywhere and just build a diverse friendship," said Sweet. Group meetings are held every second and fourth Thursday of every month at 180 Lockwood Boulevard, Charleston, S.C. from 5 to 7 p.m. to discuss news and special events within the group. Right now the organization is getting ready to start up a new Teen CERT course late September to early October.

Trouble sleeping? VA has an app for that By Reynaldo Leal U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
Why did the man run around his bed all night? To catch up to his sleep. My son thought this joke was so funny he repeated it for days. Although I chuckled every time he yelled the punch line at me, I couldn’t help but feel he was unconsciously talking about me. Years after the end of my 2006 deployment to Iraq I was still that person frantically trying to “catch up” to the rest I needed. Like an estimated 50-70 million other Americans, and an estimated 75 percent of Veterans, I suffer from occasional bouts of insomnia and have trouble getting enough sleep. While images and thoughts from my time at war seldom invade my thoughts anymore, the pressures of work and family have more
than taken their place. The good thing is that insomnia can be addressed with professional care, exercise and good sleep hygiene. To make sure veterans have the tools they need to improve their quality of rest, VA has set up programs to combat sleep disorders stemming from PTSD or traumatic brain injuries, including sleep clinics located at VA health facilities across the country. What I’ve seen is that as our lives become busier (and more connected) it can be hard to stay on top of our need for good rest. That’s why VA’s National Center for PTSD has partnered with DoD’s National Center for Telehealth and Technology to create the CBT-i Coach app. Designed to help veterans get the right amount of rest, the free app can be used to track daily sleep and set up

reminders and alarms to change bad bedtime habits. While CBT-i Coach is not a substitute for professional care or therapy, it is a good way to evaluate the way you look at sleep. A feature I find incredibly useful is the guided meditation recordings. Although it may seem somewhat outside the mainstream at first, the narrator’s calming voice leads you through exercises that are a great way to let go of those pesky thoughts telling you to worry about something. I’ve used this feature every day since downloading the app to wind down after a long day. While apps developed by VA can put you on the right track to a good night’s sleep Veterans are encouraged to contact their local VA health facility and inform their doctors of any sleep disorders they’re experiencing.

Joint Base Charleston Exchange shoppers invited to 'Sound Off'
By Joe Puryear Army & Air Force Exchange Service Public Affairs
The Army & Air Force Exchange Service is constantly seeking opportunities to improve on the Exchange benefit. As part of this effort, the Department of Defense's oldest and largest Exchange service relies on an ongoing Customer Satisfaction Index to provide localized, real time snapshots of the job Exchange facilities are doing to improve the value of the support provided to military members and their families.
The survey, which addresses customer service, pricing, sales associate availability, merchandise assortment and many more key issues, is administered at half of Exchange main stores twice a year. JB Charleston shoppers' opportunity to participate in the 2013 Customer Satisfaction Index is Aug. 31 through Sept. 21. During this time, troops and their families are encouraged to visit the Exchange to provide feedback on locally available services. Beyond improving the Exchange benefit, shoppers who participate will also receive a coupon worth $5 off their
next purchase at the Exchange. "We want to hear from as many JB Charleston shoppers as possible," said Mary Anderson-Taylor, the Exchange's assistant store manager. "Efforts like the CSI are critical to not only improving the shopping experience, but also bolstering the dividend the Exchange annually delivers to the community as healthy exchange operations produce greater returns for Air Force quality of life programs."

The MDS Company 2 - 4 divers began surface-supplied diving operations Aug. 16, and recovered part of the aircraft from the ocean floor by using a basket to raise large pieces of the jet from a depth of 107 feet. The next day, the divers recovered the flight data recorder, commonly referred to as the "black box." Diving operations ended Aug. 19, after recovering key debris. The remnants of the aircraft and the flight data recorder are being transferred to Joint Base Andrews for examination by the Air Force's Safety Investigation Board. "I'd like to thank the Sailors, Navy Divers and civilian mariners for their cooperation and expertise at locating and recovering the aircraft, including the flight data recorder," said Brig. Gen. Marc Sasseville, commander, 113th Wing,
D.C. Air National Guard. "These key items will help us to understand what happened and what we can do to prevent a similar occurrence." MDSU 2 is an expeditionary mobile unit homeported at Joint Expeditionary Base, Little Creek-Ft. Story in Virginia Beach, Va., and has successfully conducted salvage operations to support TWA Flight 800, Swiss Air Flight 111, the space shuttles Challenger and Columbia, the I-35W Mississippi River bridge collapse in Minnesota, the Civil War ironclad USS Monitor, and recovery of a down military jet off the coast of Italy. USNS Grasp is crewed by U.S. Navy's Military Sealift Command , which operates approximately 110 noncombatant, U.S. Navy civilian-crewed ships that replenish U.S. Navy ships, conduct specialized missions, strategically preposition combat cargo at sea around the world, and move military cargo and supplies used by deployed U.S. forces and coalition partners.

days for pretrial confinement and 112 days of additional pretrial confinement credit. Manning was tried and sentenced by military judge alone by his request.

specifications of violation of lawful regulations related to his computer use and storage of classified information, and one specification of wrongful publication of U.S. intelligence information. The court-martial now is in the post-trial and appellate phase, in which the government will compile a complete and accurate record of the trial and review the findings and sentence, officials said. Manning has the right to petition the convening authority for clemency during the post-trial phase, they added.
Continue to serve through conversion
By Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Andrea Perez Navy Personnel Command Public Affairs
MILLINGTON, Tenn. – Conversion programs allow Sailors from all walks of life to make a major job change and continue their Navy careers, officials said Aug. 21. Several Continuum of Service conversion programs that apply to eligible officer and enlisted Sailors who are currently serving on active duty or in the Reserves are outlined in NAVADMIN 198/13. To date, thousands of Sailors have converted to different ratings, allowing the Navy to keep Sailors who are committed to a career in the Navy. According to a new conversion status report on the Active Duty Conversions Web Page on www.npc.navy.mil, more than half of active duty conversion requests in 2013 have already been approved.
Applications for conversion can be submitted by detailers, command career counselors or anyone with prior access to FleetRIDE through the new Career Waypoint information technology system. A NAVPERS 5239/8 (SAAR Addendum) is required to access C-WAY. Active-duty enlisted Sailors, in conjunction with reenlistment applications submitted via the C-WAY-Reenlistment process, can voluntarily request to change ratings. Reserve Sailors, working with their CCC, can view and apply for a rating conversion through C-WAY-Conversion. Active-duty and Reserve officers interested in conversion can request a voluntary designator change. Requests for Reserve designator changes are considered continuously, while requests for AC designator changes are decided by a lateral transfer board twice a year. Per MILPERSMAN 1440-010, requests for conversion into ratings that are properly

Answering the call: refueling the Spirit
U.S. Air Force photos / Airman 1st Class John Linzmeier
A B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber approaches the rear of a KC-135 Stratotanker in preparation to refuel during a training mission over Midwestern skies, Aug. 1, 2013. The B-2’s unique design has enabled it to travel into enemy territory without being detected by their radar to deploy ordinance. It is one of many aircraft for which McConnell’s tankers provide fuel. Capt. Kyle Cole, 334th Air Refueling Squadron instructor pilot, and Capt. Greg Barry, 349th Air Refueling Squadron instructor pilot descend a KC-135 Stratotanker for a “touch-andgo” landing. Touch-and-goes are landings executed with the immediate takeoff after landing to help pilots retain their flying proficiency.

Petty Officer Selectee Leadership courses updated
By Susan Henson Center for Personal and Professional Development Public Affairs
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Updated versions of the Petty Officer Selectee Leadership courses have been released, said the courses' manager at the Center for Personal and Professional Development Aug. 20. Chief Aviation Boatswain's Mate Handling James Priest, manager of the courses, said that the changes were announced in Naval Administrative message 207/13 and applies to Petty Officer Selectee Leadership Course, Petty Officer Second Class Selectee Leadership Course, and Petty Officer First Class Selectee Leadership Course. "As the NAVADMIN said, we added Sexual Assault Prevention and Response and Combat/Operational Stress Control modules to the courses, per Chief of Naval Operations the Defense Department instructions, as well as the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012," he said. "Commands must update their curricula to ensure they are teaching the correct version of these courses to newly selected E-4 to E-6 petty officers." The NAVADMIN references the instructions, which directed the military services to include Sexual Assault Prevention and Response training and education in all leadership training and also that the training be tailored for each leadership level. The services
were additionally directed to ensure leaders serving at all levels understand Combat/Operational Stress Control Policy and management strategies. "Commands will need to go to NKO to download the updated courses, then follow the directions in the change letters to make the required changes to integrate the new content into the printed leadership course materials they already have. Or they can download the entire revised courses with the changes already made," Priest said. Capt. John Newcomer, CPPD's commanding officer, said the course revisions were a top priority for the CPPD curricula development team. "Our Training Directorate team members worked hard to deliver this revised content as soon as possible for fleet use," he said. "SAPR and OSC are both timely issues for the Navy to address. Completing these necessary course updates supports CPPD's goal to provide training that will equip Sailors to think critically, act responsibly and lead proactively to meet the ever changing global challenges our Navy faces every day."

Innovative programs keep MWR relevant
By Donna Miles American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON – Military fitness centers, swimming pools, lodging facilities and outdoor recreation offices might sound to some like a footnote among competing budget requirements. But Ed Miles, DOD’s MWR policy director, and his counterparts across the military services see a close connection to military readiness. “We have a direct impact on the readiness and retention and resilience of the troops and their families,” Miles told American Forces Press Service. “When you have a healthy and fit force, it has absolute national security implications -- in terms of stress reduction, physical and emotional health and esprit de corps. Congress has long agreed, authorizing funds since 1989 to cover 85 percent of programs with the most direct link to readiness: fitness centers, community centers and library programs, among them, Miles explained. Amenities such as arts-and-crafts centers, outdoor recreation centers and youth programs that are less directly tied to readiness receive a lower authorization of 65 percent. Meanwhile, “nice-to-have” offerings such as military golf courses, bowling alleys, campgrounds, food and beverage services and similar services generally must be self-supporting, with user fees covering all costs and overhead. A variety of factors has thrown this formula off kilter, Miles said. With increased privatization, almost three-quarters of military families now live off installations and tap services and programs in their communities. Many, like their civilian neighbors, have fewer spare dollars to spend on recreation. And with sequestration putting a big dent in already-reduced MWR budgets, the military services find themselves struggling to provide quality-of-life programs and services to their members. The Air Force, along with the other services, are looking at other ways to keep MWR programs viable. They’re beginning to scale back operating hours at fitness centers to the Defense Department-mandated 90 hours per week. Patrons increasingly find themselves being asked to pay nominal fees for aerobics and other fitness classes taught by paid staffers. Library hours at many installations have been reduced to 40 hours a week. Most bases now operate just one pool to reduce lifeguard salaries and other overhead costs.
Outdoor recreation centers are considering charging rental fees for skis and other equipment, rather than the smaller maintenance fee charged in the past. Concerts and other special entertainment have been scaled back or cancelled altogether. Volunteers, long the backbone of many MWR services and programs, are putting in more time in fitness centers, family support centers and libraries as well as on intramural fields to cover personnel shortfalls. “It would be a lot tougher for our staff to deliver the quantity and quality of programs they do without those volunteers,” Miles said. “And with sequestration, we find that we are depending on them more than ever. Without our volunteers, we would be in a world of hurt.” Committed to preserving quality-of-life offerings despite ever-tighter budgets, military morale, welfare and recreation officials are scaling back in some areas as they introduce innovative approaches to delivering services and programs. Based on extensive surveys, the Air Force identified fitness, appropriated-fund dining facilities, youth and child care services, outdoor programs and libraries as its most important offerings, said Michael Bensen, the Air Force Personnel Center’s deputy director of services. In some cases, the services are trying new innovations to keep popular programs running. The Air Force, for example, is testing a pilot program at six bases that gives qualified users 24/7 access to fitness centers, even after the paid staff has left for the day. Based on the results, the initiative could be expanded to more bases, Bensen explained. The Navy is revamping its community recreation program to bundle services and programs at one location. A waterfront recreational area at Naval Base San Diego serves as a model, combining outdoor recreation services and the ticket booth for local tours and attractions under one roof, served by a central front desk. Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, initiated a similar concept, consolidating MWR activities under one overall manager. New partnerships are helping to keep services going despite budget cuts. In some cases, military patrons now get free or low-cost access to community or commercial services and programs that their installations no longer offer. For example, Joint Base Andrews in Maryland established
a partnership with a popular private-sector company that teaches rappelling, kayaking and other outdoor activities to military patrons. That saves the Air Force the cost of hiring its own instructors while ensuring “a quality experience at a reduced cost,” Bensen said. That mindset must continue to sustain morale, welfare and recreation programs through the current budget crunch, officials said. The result, they said, will have a direct impact on military readiness.
