The United States Coast Guard Cutter Hamilton (WMSL 753) moored at its new home, Pier Papa at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center Nov. 24, 2014, in N. Charleston, S.C. Hamilton’s primary missions include law enforcement, search and rescue, defense operations and homeland security. The ship carries a crew between 109 and 143 Coastguardsmen depending on the mission, is 418 feet long and displaces 4,500 tons, with a maximum sustained speed of 28 knots. Hamilton is the fourth National Security Cutter delivered to the United States Coast Guard.

Active shooter drill tests Airmen’s readiness

Story and photo by Senior Airman Jared Trimarchi 628th Air Base Wing Public Affairs

Airmen and civilians from the 628th Military Personnel Flight participated in an activeshooter exercise to test their preparedness and response to a high threat situation Nov. 21, 2014, at Joint Base Charleston, S.C. The drill was a test run for an upcoming base-wide, active-shooter exercise scheduled for early December, an annual requirement for Air Force installations.

"Overall the exercise was a success and the Military Personnel Flight did a tremendous job accessing the situation and acting accordingly," said Tech. Sgt. Jason Dietrick, 628th Security Forces Squadron lead trainer.

The exercise kicked off with the simulated gunman running down the hall of building 503, yelling and banging on doors while pretending to fire a weapon. He was able to open several unlocked doors and found people hiding, resulting in four people simulated as casualties.

According to Dietrick, in most active-shooter situations, the gunman's goal is to cause mass causalities and chaos, and these types of training exercises can help prevent loss of life and limb.

"As protectors of the base, the 628th Security Forces Squadron teaches Airmen to evade, barricade and fight in the event of an active shooter and that is what we were looking for during the training," Dietrick said. "In a high threat situation such as an active shooter, it's the little details that count, such as locking your door, turning off your lights and even silencing your cell phone."

The 628th SFS is conducting the active-shooter exercises, and no different than protecting the people who work on the installation, defenders take their job seriously, Dietrick said.

Lloyd Greenawalt, a 628th SFS patrolman, acted as the active shooter during the exercise.

"It is important for me to turn up the stress levels of the exercise to simulate the high stress of an active shooter," Greenawalt said. "I was actually starting to lose my voice from all the yelling I was doing. If I take my part seriously the people we are testing will take their roles seriously and that's what we were looking for."

Dietrick and Greenawalt both agreed that the best things to do during an active shooter situation is to communicate with the people around you, work as a team and if all else fails fight back against the assailant.

It's widely known that Joint Base Charleston is home to AMC's largest C-17 fleet; from Oct. 2013 to Sept. 2014, AFE supported 15,000 sorties, which transported 87,000 passengers and delivered 287 million pounds of cargo, maximizing the 437th Airlift Wing's global strategic airlift capability.

But not as widely known is AFE has also been assisting the West Virginia Air National Guard's 167th Airlift Wing as it shifts from the C-5 Galaxy to the C-17 Globemaster III. The 437th's OSS AFE has played a large role in building the partnership between AMC and the Air National Guard by instructing 260 tasks and certifying five technicians, ensuring the 167th AW makes a smooth transition to their new platform.

Maintaining the airdrop training program for the 437th AW is no small task. AFE aided 224 personnel, and supported 12 aircraft and 32 Joint Airborne and Air Transportability Training missions, boosting combat readiness for both the Air Force and Army.

Beware the holiday blues; help is available

By Master Sgt. Tim Wheelis 14th Airlift Squadron first sergeant

Holidays can be a very stressful time of the year for a lot of people due to the added pressure of traveling to visit relatives and all the extra money we seem to spend to make this year better than the last.

Be aware of how worn out physically and mentally you are getting and take some time for yourself. There are plenty of ways you can combat stress; from going to the gym to taking a nap on the couch. Just make sure

you are taking time to unwind.

If you find that your techniques aren't getting the job done, don't be too proud to go talk to someone. There are numerous helping agencies around the area you can turn to, the Chaplains, MFLC, Mental Health and Military One Source are a few easy ones to get in touch with if you need some ideas to help make it a bit easier on you this Holiday season.

And as always, you can always talk to your supervisor, chief, first sergeant or commander.

All of us are here for you.

Asking for help is sign of strength not weakness

By Maj. Gen. Mark Brown and Master Sgt. Derik New, 2nd Air Force

KEESLER AIR FORCE BASE, Miss. – Growing up I was a big fan of Muhammad Ali. He was the world heavyweight boxing champion and unashamedly referred to himself as "The Greatest."

I vividly remember a reporter asking Ali, "When did you know that you were 'The Greatest?’"

Before Ali could answer, the reporter offered, "Perhaps it was when you knocked out George Foreman in 1974?"

Ali shook his head in disagreement, so the reporter continued.

"Maybe it was when you destroyed Sonny Liston in the world heavyweight championship in 1964?" Again, Ali shook his head.

Then Ali told the story of when he knew he was the greatest. It happened in 1973 when he faced Ken Norton at the San Diego Sports Arena. As Ali entered the arena, the crowed was in a frenzy, cheering "Ali, Ali, Ali!" The world champion stepped in the ring and quickly found himself overmatched against the bigger Norton, suffering a broken jaw in the second round. Ali found the strength to finish the 12-round bout, but suffered only his second defeat in 43 professional fights. Through this trial, after having his

jaw broken and being knocked senseless but somehow remaining on his feet, is when Ali truly came to believe he was the greatest.

To prove that point, Ali went on to beat Ken Norton in their next two matches.

Being knocked out and having to bounce back is all but inevitable for most of us. This is especially true for those of us in the business of delivering air power for America. Our mission can be stressful and those stresses can be further complicated by the everyday challenges of life. The good news is that, regardless of our situation, there is always a helping hand. The act of reaching out to these individuals may be difficult, but should never be thought of as a sign of weakness. In fact, recognizing you need help, and seeking that help, only builds resilience and strengthens your character.

Knowledge of this indirect benefit is well documented throughout history.

Per John Heywood, an English author and playwright in the early 16th century; "If you will call troubles experiences, and remember that every experience develops some latent force within you, you will grow vigorous and happy, however adverse your circumstances may seem to be."

We all need help every now and then. Some individuals feel very comfortable asking for financial, spiritual, physical, or emotional help during

difficult times; however, many others are unable to recognize when help is needed, or are just reluctant to ask. For those who prefer to do things themselves, so as not to burden others, the situation or experience can eventually become such a weight that the individual is unable to go at it alone or is already in over their head.

Air Force physicians, mental health providers, chaplains, first sergeants, commanders, and wingmen are all there to help. There are also many programs that allow you to talk or research your situations, such as our family readiness centers, our Military Crisis Line, the Air Force Suicide Prevention web site, the Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Program, and The Airman's Guide for Assisting Personnel in Distress. But the fact remains, if you don't reach out, it's difficult to offer assistance.

As military members, your country relies on your service and we understand the burden that can be levied upon you and your families. Always remember, you are not alone with this and someone is there to help.

My wish to you this holiday season is that you will ask for help if you need it. Just remember that even "The Greatest" had to bounce back to truly realize his greatness.

Finding life’s new direction after a loss

By Airman 1st Class Erica Crossen 375th Air Mobility Wing Public Affairs

SCOTT AIR FORCE BASE, Ill. – Sometimes it takes a difficult situation in your life to not only be reminded of the things you are truly grateful for, but also to serve as a catalyst for change.

That moment for me came during the beginning of 2012 when my mother died suddenly at just 43 years old.

We had just finished observing Christmas and like always, she was the absolute fixture in our celebrations.

I can still hear the sound of my mom's laughter, smell the delicious food we prepared and see the tree twinkling as it sheltered cheerful little packages beneath it. She would initiate "Star Wars" and "Godfather" movie marathons as part of our yearly traditions, and I never expected that anything could shatter my excitement for this time of the year.

However, the New Year began in a tragic way. Mom had collapsed and hit her head, hard. She was admitted into an intensive care unit, slipping into unresponsiveness due to a brain hemorrhage. My husband drove us eight hours to the hospital where I found her on life support with the haunting beeping and alarms going off in her room. It was the worst thing to have to hold her hand and acknowledge that she was truly gone, never to smile proudly at future graduations or hold my children as a grandmother.

After I lost my mom, I never thought the holidays could regain their happy luster. It was a hard reality to accept that I couldn't just pick up the phone and talk to her. I was so angry with her and confused as to why she let her health decline, leaving me and my sister without a mom.

As you can imagine, as the next holiday season approached I looked at it as something to get through. She had represented the togetherness of friends and family, and now she was gone. I had to make sense of it, and I continued to do a lot of soul searching.

During this process I decided that while I could hold on to her legacy of a great sense of humor and honor the way she loved me, there were unhealthy lifestyle habits I needed to let go of. That's when I decided that I needed to take care of my body better and eventually I lost 50 pounds.

After achieving success with that goal, I then decided to join the Air Force.

I'd been an Air Force spouse for four years, but my mom's death made me realize that I shouldn't wait to do the things I felt I needed to do.

With a new outlook on life, I felt I could power through anything. I wanted to make every moment count and not regret at least trying. I wanted the next holiday season at home to be a time of looking back on what I had accomplished that year.

It was the Christmas I spent in basic training down at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas, that I realized I had become part of another family with new traditions which helped fill the emptiness from my mother's passing. On Christmas Eve we marched to the chapel for services and as I looked around me, I knew the other trainees were experiencing difficulties, too. Some were missing their children, some were still trying to adjust to this new life, and some were just missing friends and family back home.

As we marched under a crisp star-lit Texas sky, our "Lackland Laser" flashlights swung in unison. It made the ground sway with light, competing with the sky, and it seemed almost magical. For someone half-way through training and with just two days to go before her 25th birthday, it just made me smile.

On Christmas, the drill instructors were surprisingly nice to us, and we had an elaborate, relaxed meal that day.

Two days later, my flight sang "Happy Birthday," which helped to lift my spirits as did the daily letters unfailingly sent by my husband. He knew what I was going through, but better yet he knew something that I was just realizing: hope and gratitude can buoy us through any difficulties. Moreover, the Air Force family that I always knew was there, but never quite relied on until that point, came through for me when I needed it most.

Now as I approach each holiday season, I pause to remind myself that there is always something to be thankful for and to challenge myself to keep setting – and achieving – new goals for myself.

Sometimes it's those difficult circumstances that help us change and grow the most. I still miss my mom, yet the memories and traditions I will always carry with me. However, she also gave me an opportunity change the course of my life – something that I'm very thankful for this year.

To innovate, we can't be afraid to fail

By Col. Robert Novotny Commander, 48th Fighter Wing

ROYAL AIR FORCE LAKENHEATH, England – "Throughout history, people with new ideas – who think differently and try to change things – have always been called troublemakers."

- Richelle Mead, author.

The Air Force is pushing hard for us to innovate. You hear it when our senior leaders give speeches or post articles imploring us to improve. Examples include the AFSO21 process or the new Airmen Powered by Innovation program launched in April. All of that is great, except for the fact that over the last 30 years, we've created an organization that is resistant to failure.

When was the last time you heard someone say, "It's okay to not spend all of your money at the end of the fiscal year," or, "Getting a three on your enlisted performance report is awesome!" Never, right? Clearly we have a problem. Innovation and fear of failure are incompatible. Like oil and water, a culture afraid to take risk is inherently unable to explore the sometimes-ugly world of innovation.

Here's some good news. Since the birth of the airplane, Airmen have always been innovative.

Innovation is resident in our DNA, just maybe a bit dormant right now.

A pair of brave, "troublemaker" bicycle mechanics took flight at Kitty Hawk, Doolittle's courageous "troublemakers" launched B-25 bombers off of the USS Hornet, and a fearless "troublemaker" named Chuck Yeager are all legacy examples showcasing the rich history of risk-taking Airmen.

If you've ever been to Edwards Air Force Base in California, you know that nearly every street is named for an innovative Airman who gave his or her life pushing the envelope – failing while innovating.

Given that innovation is part of our culture, how can we create an environment where our Airmen are willing to innovate without fear of failure?

First, I think we need to agree that we have to be better than we are – with our precious time, our tremendous Airmen and our finite resources. In the past several months, the Air Force released more Airmen in an attempt to meet congressionallymandated end strengths. This reduction in manpower is stressing the team more than ever.

Furthermore, our team is now in a period of mission-growth that I can't remember in recent history.

We all thought that the drawdown in Afghanistan would bring relief, but the new fight in Iraq and Syria, a pandemic virus coupled with declining security in Africa, and other resurgent threats, demand improvements in the way we accomplish our mission. It is only appropriate that an old English proverb stated, "Necessity is the mother of invention." I think that applies to us right now.

Second, and most important, we have to foster a culture that is willing to experiment and fail during discovery. I have a big role in this culture, but I am convinced our first and second-level supervisors will make or break this effort. Every time I meet with the first-term Airmen, I am reminded that we recruit and retain brilliant Americans, and they have great ideas. They are also a fresh set of eyes in the organization with a long list of questions about how we're doing business.

If you're a young supervisor, listen to your folks.

Engage with them about how to improve the organization. Our Airmen, regardless of rank or experience, are the key to our future. You have to empower them to take action on their ideas, and reward them when they succeed – and fail. As soon as we admonish an Airman for trying and failing, we can

be certain they won't try again.

Without a doubt, we know there are areas where failure brings a high price, like flight and weapons safety, and our healthcare. But there are countless areas around this installation, to include bureaucratic processes, communication, staffing, mission accomplishment and finances, where we can make improvements. If in doubt, start small and build some momentum. Every improvement, no matter how small, will make our team better.

I know this is easier said than done, and we can't change it overnight. I also know that some folks won't trust me when I say it's okay to fail. Fair enough.

I can tell you we are listening to your ideas and making improvements. Because of your ideas at RAF Lakenheath, we've already raised the speed limit on the perimeter road, canceled monthly meetings, returned promotion ceremonies to the squadrons, deleted multiple briefing requirements, and so on. All of these improvements are incredibly simple and small changes that make our lives better – ideas that came from our Airmen. Those are not truly innovative ideas, but they are better ways of doing business, and we're listening.

Together we can push the boundaries. Our youngest Airmen hold the keys to this change. Listen to them, and take action. Don't be afraid to try and fail.

Innovation will save us money, which is good, but more importantly, it will save us time – time that will go back to you and your team. I want you to keep that elusive "white space" time for yourselves. You know best what to do with your time.

Hopefully you'll use that time to get to the gym, travel Europe, mentor a young Airman, or experiment with ways to do our mission better. We can innovate together if we accept the fact that it comes with a price. A price we're willing to pay.

Mail office stamps out dangerous packages with new technology

By Senior Airman Tom Brading Joint Base Charleston Public Affairs

New technology being used in the Joint Base Charleston Official Mail Center is ensuring mail is delivered safely.

"Whether it's a suspicious package or official mail, we're the front line of defense," said Staff Sgt. Sheila SanchezTosado, 628th Communications Squadron official mail center NCOIC. "The safe delivery of mail to Joint Base Charleston is our mission."

To ensure mail safety, each JB Charleston mail office has been equipped with the most reliable explosive trace detector on the market; the Fido X3.

According to Sanchez - Tosado, JB Charleston is one of two military bases using the X3. Several other DOD facilities use a larger CBRNE detection system.

Joint Base Charleston celebrates chief master sergeant selects

U.S. Air Force Photo / Senior Airman Tom Brading

AFE Honored - from Page 1

As a stepping stone for the C-17 AddendaA reconfiguration, AFE inspected and reconfigured the 52 C-17's assigned to JB Charleston. Airmen surveyed more than 3,500 pieces of equipment, paving the way for $1.8 million in savings.

AFE is also in the business of saving lives.

Airmen submitted three lifesaving deficiency reports after identifying defects in manufactured equipment. By doing so, they were able to remove safety risks to both aircrews and aircraft.

Giving back to the Charleston community is also something AFE takes pride in. AFE Airmen volunteered more than 900 hours to organizations such as Airmen Against Drunk

Driving, Habitat 4 Humanity, Special Olympics, the Joint Base Charleston Honor Guard and the annual Prisoners of War and Missing in Action events.

Needless to say, Tyree is proud of his entire AFE unit.

"Winning an AMC-level award reflects highly on their [Airmen] professionalism and commitment to excellence ... it can't be done alone, it's certainly a team effort," said Tyree.

"Our AFE personnel, who work in the various 'specialized' back shops, don't always see the direct impact they have in enabling the mission. So, it's certainly a welcomed validation that what they do daily absolutely matters to the Joint Base and AMC."

Antwone Fisher: A recruiting story

By Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class AmandaRae Moreno Commander, Navy Recruiting Command Public Affairs

MILLINGTON, Tenn. – Antwone Fisher's journey from homelessness to the Navy has been made famous by his 2002 movie that bears his name.

While his story is extraordinary, his path from civilian to bootcamp to Sailor was not much different than that of the tens of thousands of Sailors who are recruited into the Navy every year.

If you ask a new recruit why they joined the Navy, the answers will likely revolve around a host of opportunities the Navy has to offer. For a young Fisher, one particular opportunity caught his attention.

"I was only aware of the opportunity to travel to places that were far and away from the place where I grew up, literally and figuratively," said Fisher. "It was what I wanted most at the time."

Fisher, who had lived in and out of foster homes, had very little exposure to life in the military. One particular event, however, made an impression on him.

"The brother of a childhood friend who was returning home from the Vietnam War was exiting their father's car pulling his sea bag from the rear seat behind him," Fisher described. "I remember thinking how worldly and grown up he had become, how majestic and powerful he appeared wearing his 'Cracker Jack' dress blue uniform and 'dixie cup' [cover]."

Fisher's love of the dress blue uniform started when he was very young. While Fisher may not have had exposure to the actual Navy before enlisting, one iconic pop image had already caught his eye.

"When I was a boy, my favorite sweet treat was the caramel covered popcorn treat that came in a little box marked Cracker Jacks," Fisher explained. "The uniform worn by the kid on the box captured my attention because at the time it was so unusual."

When Fisher made the decision to join, he reached out to a local recruiter and began the process of joining the Navy. But first, his recruiter had a few simple questions "He asked me if I was a U.S. citizen, had I graduated from high school, was I willing to work hard and follow orders, and was I ready to make something of myself? I replied emphatically, yes, to all these questions," said Fisher. "He was the first in a long line of enlisted men and officers who helped me change my life and circumstance for the better."

But while Fisher had been living on the streets without a home, he was still apprehensive about his transition into the Navy. Years of abuse and neglect by his foster families had left Fisher unsure about his own worth.

"My biggest fear about joining the Navy was if I would find a friend," he admitted. "At 18 and under the dire situation of homelessness, I didn't think that anyone would want to be my friend."

Fisher was worried about a myriad of social interactions and expectations given his unique circumstances.

"I didn't feel that I had anything to offer as a person. I had no self-esteem at the time," he said.

But like many others who join the Navy,

Fisher soon found himself flourishing in the structure and learning skills he needed. And soon the Navy and his shipmates became more to him that he could have imagined before joining the Navy.

"Of course I did find friends and I learn to socialize," he said. "I learned that I had as much to offer by way of friendship than any other Sailor. Those friendships became familial relationships to me and the Navy became my home."

Fisher also worried that he wouldn't have the physical stamina or academic background to be successful in his Navy career. By testing his perceived limits in bootcamp and beyond, Fisher learned how successful he could be.

"I never failed an academic test nor a physical endurance task or exercise," he explained.

"It was in bootcamp that I learned that I was more intellectually and athletically capable then I had ever imagined myself to be."

Fisher credits much of his success in life to the lessons and experience he gained in the Navy.

"Through, camaraderie, discipline, mentorship, responsibility and travel, I flourished into the man I am today," Fisher said. "Long after you leave the Navy, the lessons, training and the leadership skills will serve you wherever you go."

Fisher acknowledges that in hindsight he sees that much of the opportunity that the Navy offered him didn't involve traveling to far off places. Instead, the greatest opportunities he encountered were times when he was able to grow as an individual.

"The Navy is a great way to start life," he said. "There is a world of opportunity. More than that, the opportunity for personal growth that the Navy offers is unmatched."

While his time in the Navy has come and gone, Fisher has sound advice for the Sailors entering the Navy today. His advice is as applicable today as it was when he joined the Navy in the late 70s.

"I would tell the newest Sailors to always do their best, and remember that the Navy is made up of people," he said. "If you ever need someone to talk to, there is always someone there who will listen."

"Be honest and true," he continued. "Work hard and be good. Be careful and have fun.

Do the right thing and don't make foolish choices."

These sentiments are as relevant today as they were during Fisher's time in the Navy.

They even echo the mantra of current Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy Micheal D. Stevens, which includes "work hard, stay out of trouble, be a good and decent person".

Fisher illustrates the most valuable asset of the Navy. It is not the ships, or aircraft, or weapons that make the U.S. Navy the world's most powerful. Instead it is its people.

Fisher's hopes and fears can be seen across the nation today as the newest Future Sailors raise their right hand. The cloth of the nation acts not only as an equalizer, but provides a unified experience no matter the rate or designator, no matter if it lasts one tour or a full career.

Antwone Fisher speaks to Sailors gathered in Naval Station Great Lakes Ross Auditorium May 13, 2003, about his experiences in the Navy and his autobiography "Finding Fish," the basis for the critically acclaimed movie "Antwone Fisher" released earlier that year.

Fisher, orphaned at birth, served 11-years in the Navy and credits the Navy with being his first family. Fisher spoke to more than 1,500 Sailors at Great Lakes including 450 during their inprocessing day brief at Recruit Training Command.

NORAD prepares to track Santa’s flight PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. – The North American Aerospace Defense Command's NORAD Tracks Santa website, http://www.noradsanta.org, launched Dec. 1, featuring a mobile version, a holiday countdown, new games and daily activities and more.

The website is available in eight languages: English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, and Chinese.

Official NORAD Tracks Santa apps are also available in the Windows, Apple and Google Play stores, so parents and children can countdown the days until Santa's launch on their smart phones and tablets. Tracking opportunities are also offered on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Google+. Santa followers can go to any of these sites and search for "@noradsanta" to get started.

Also new this year, the website features Santa's elves in the North Pole Village.

NORAD Tracks Santa is introducing the newest elf and asking the public to help choose the perfect name for him. Details can be found via NORAD Tracks Santa social media or in the "Name the Elf" video in Santa's North Pole Movie Theater.

Starting at 12:01 a.m. MST on Dec. 24,

website visitors can watch Santa make preparations for his flight. NORAD's "Santa Cams" will stream videos on the website as Santa makes his way over various locations.

Then, at 4 a.m. MST (6 a.m. EST), trackers worldwide can speak with a live phone operator to inquire as to Santa's whereabouts by dialing the toll-free number 1-877-HiNORAD (1-877-446-6723) or by sending an email to noradtrackssanta@outlook.com. Any time on Dec. 24, Windows Phone users can ask Cortana for Santa's location, and OnStar subscribers can press the OnStar button in their vehicles to find Santa.

NORAD Tracks Santa started in 1955 when a local media advertisement directed children to call Santa direct – only the number was misprinted. Instead of reaching Santa, the phone rang through to the crew commander on duty at the Continental Air Defense Command Operations Center. Thus began the tradition, which NORAD has carried on since it was created in 1958.

Airmen provide FAST deployment role

By Scott Prater Schriever Air Force Base

SCHRIEVER AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. – Security forces airmen deploy a lot. It's a part of the job that has seen Air Force Tech. Sgt. Shaun Bush deploy five times during his 11 years in the Air Force.

That experience is one reason Air Force leaders chose him to lead a team for more than 200 days during his most recent deployment to Southwest Asia, as 10 airmen assigned to the 50th Security Forces Squadron here deployed from June to December in 2013 as a "Fly-away Security Team."

Air Force FAST teams protect aircrews and airplanes in hostile areas. They fly on specific missions to various deployed locations to ensure the safety and security of aircraft and crew members.

"We trained specifically on how to perform the FAST mission, how to handle ourselves, how to secure others, the flight, the airplane the aircrew and passengers," Bush said. "It's a vitally important job, because a pilot is not trained in hand-tohand combat, nor is he or she trained to handle things that we are trained to handle.

"A loadmaster is there to manage the plane's cargo, not worry about security," he continued. "That task lies with us.

We're there to make sure the crew members can focus on their Men Riv A Neighborhood I Goose Creek jobs."

Team Members Require Specific Skills A FAST assignment requires specific skills. Security forces Airmen must complete Evasion Conduct After Capture and FAST training prior to deploying.

Bush said this particular team, known as the 451st Expeditionary Security Forces Squadron FAST, provided flight deck and perimeter security for C-130 Hercules and crews as they conducted air operations. The team flew more than 700 missions, 2,400 sorties and transported more than 23,500 people, including 55 detainees. Their missions carried 11,000 tons of cargo to 24 different landing zones in seven countries.

"It was exciting, for sure," Bush said, noting that his team often landed on dirt runways and made up the full extent of security on the ground.

High Operations Tempo The team also worked an extremely high operations tempo, Bush said, as the U.S. military conducted drawdown operations in the region.

Every member of the team received a medal upon returning here, and Bush, now a 50th Space Wing inspector, said the team's deployed commander was extremely appreciative of their service.

"There were a lot of long days," Bush said. "But, given the opportunity, I would do it again in a heartbeat. We moved a lot of people – our people out and host-country soldiers in."

Bush's team was the second of three FAST teams to deploy from the 50th Security Forces Squadron in the past three years.

New website launched for the Navy's ShipShape program From Navy and Marine Corps Public Health Center

PORTSMOUTH, Va. – The Navy and Marine Corps Public Health Center announced the launch of a revitalized website for the Navy's ShipShape Program, Dec. 2.

The ShipShape program is the official Navy weight management program that assists active-duty Sailors, Navy beneficiaries, and government civilians with making healthy behavior changes in order to lose weight.

The program consists of eight sessions that focus on three important components for weight management: mindset, nutrition and physical activity.

The ShipShape program is managed by NMCPHC and aligns to the missions of the Navy's 21st Century Sailor and Marine initiative and Navy Medicine to maintain a healthy, fit and ready force.

"The new ShipShape program website provides improved site structure and an array of new content and features," said Sally Vickers, public health educator at NMCPHC. "The new site has already garnered more than 500 unique visits and has been met with an overwhelmingly positive response. It offers ShipShape facilitators, coordinators, participants, and command fitness leaders quick and easy access to essential information and resources in support of the ShipShape program."

The new site includes the following enhancements: • Improved structure and navigation: The new site boasts an improved layout and standardized navigation structure to enhance the quality and availability of information for the ShipShape program community.

• New content: The revitalized site contains new and refreshed resources developed specifically to communicate with ShipShape program facilitators, coordinators, participants, and CFLs, such as frequently asked questions (FAQs), updated roster and reporting forms, quarterly newsletters, and a suite of products that align to each of the program's eight sessions.

• Access to collaboration website: Beyond providing updated, organized information, the site promotes greater collaboration between ShipShape program facilitators and the program managers through the use of milSuite. Once certified, facilitators are encouraged to visit the site and establish a milSuite account, if they do not already have one. They are then invited to join the ShipShape Program Facilitators Group in which they will receive the latest information, program materials, and discussions.

"Through the ShipShape program, we help participants achieve healthy weight loss by facilitating changes in eating and exercise habits that enable them to reach and maintain a

SAPR Corner Sexual assault forensic exams

By Ruby Godley, Naval Weapons Station Victim Advocate

Sexual assault forensic exams, also known as “rape kits,” are available to victims of a recent sexual assault regardless of your reporting option. In the state of South Carolina, you can make a restricted report and receive a SAFE. Some states, such as California, require MTFs to report to law enforcement.

Medical treatment is beneficial to victims for different reasons: personal health, evidence collection and comfort. Even if you do not have any visible physical injuries, you may be injured or be at risk of becoming pregnant or acquiring a sexually transmitted infec-

tion. During the SAFE, medical staff can check for any internal injuries, administer the morning after pill to females, and provide medication to help prevent the spread of STIs. SAFEs are available to victims in our local area up to 120 hours after a sexual assault has occurred. A victim advocate can accompany someone during the exam if desired. In the tricounty area, the Medical University of South Carolina is the only local hospital able to perform a sexual assault forensic exam. Naval Health Clinic Charleston is also able to provide exams during clinic hours to service members and dependents. All exams and medications are free to victims of a sexual assault.

Chapel Corner A gift to ourselves this holiday season

By Chaplain (Cmdr.) Laura Bender

The holiday season is here again and with it a whole lot of crazy: rushed travel, expensive gifts, feeding frenzies and over-the-top expectations. It’s easy to get overwhelmed. So how can you reduce the stress and busyness?

Give yourself a simple gift: less mishigas.

No, you don’t need to reduce your association with a misspelling of the state north of Ohio.

Mishigas is a Yiddish word which loosely translated means “self-created chaos and

craziness.”

It’s what naturally follows statements like: “I’m pretty sure I have enough gas to get home.” “No, I don’t need to read the directions.” “Gee, I bet I can get away with this.”

Yeah, right.

Since holiday stress is difficult enough, in this season of peace, be kind to yourself: Pay attention. Ask for directions. Don’t drive distracted. Use the right tool. Drink less. Fill the gas tank. Avoid unnecessary drama. Simplify.

Less michigas might just be the best gift ever.

Coping with Isolation: Enjoying your own company

By Chaplain (Maj.) Kyle Hundley

“A man is never completely alone in this world. At the worst, he has the company of a boy, a youth, and by and by a grown man - the one he used to be.”

- Cesare Pavese, (1908-1950) Italian poet, critic, novelist, and translator.

There are times in everyone’s life when we feel lonely or isolated. It can be for straightforward reasons, like being away from home or having problems with family or coworkers.

Having low self-esteem can also make us feel lonely, because we feel we’re not as good as others.

There are many coping strategies for overcoming loneliness and isolation, but one way is to enjoy your own company.

Jean-Paul Sartre, the French writer and

philosopher said, “If you are lonely when you are alone, you are in bad company.”

It may feel strange at first to spend time alone, especially if you’re used to surrounding yourself with people, but spending time alone can be liberating. The freedom to be alone with your thoughts can be a great way of winding down and reducing stress. Can you feel comfortable with just yourself for company?

When we think of people we want to be around, they are people who have a selfassuredness that is attractive to others.

Learning to be on your own and enjoying your own company is a step towards this kind of confidence and self-esteem.

“You cannot be lonely if you like the person you're alone with.”

- Wayne Dryer, American Author

The Patriot • December 5, 2014 11 JB CHS NEWS Master sergeant evaluation board, SNCO promotion changes coming in spring 2015 WASHINGTON – The Air Force continues the phased implementation of its Enlisted Evaluation System and Weighted Airman Promotion System changes with the convening of a master sergeant evaluation board scheduled for May 2015.

Evaluation and promotion system changes, scheduled for implementation over the next 16 months for active-duty Airmen, are focused on ensuring job performance is the most important factor when evaluating and identifying Airmen for promotion.

Master Sergeant Evaluation Board The revamped master sergeant promotion process will be divided into two phases –Phase I and a Phase II which contains an evaluation board similar to the current senior master sergeant and chief master sergeant evaluation boards.

Under Phase I, promotion eligible technical sergeants, as of the Nov. 30 promotion eligibility cut-off date (PECD), will be scheduled to complete their WAPS tests (specialty knowledge test (SKT) and/or promotion fitness examination (PFE)) during the February - March 2015 testing window. Promotion eligible technical sergeants complete WAPS testing in the same testing window as promotion eligible staff sergeants; therefore, force support squadrons have been instructed to give testing priority to their technical sergeant population. This will assist the Air Force Personnel Center in completing the Phase I process which includes ensuring SKT and/or PFE minimum scores have been met and establishing each Air Force specialty code’s (AFSC) Phase I cut-line.

Each Airman’s test scores will be combined with their other weighted factor points (time in grade, time in service, decorations and enlisted performance reports) to determine an initial score. Scoring will follow the previously released WAPS point model for staff sergeants through master sergeants. The top 60 percent of Airmen, by score in each AFSC, will then move forward to Phase II of the promotion process where their records will meet an evaluation board. In addition, in AFSCs where there are 15 or less eligible Airmen, all records will be advanced to the Phase II evaluation board provided the minimum SKT/PFE scores have been met.

During phase II, board members will follow the same process as the current senior master sergeant and chief master sergeant boards.

They will review the selection folder containing each Airman’s evaluation brief, EPRs closing out within 10 years of the PECD, and all decorations received over the Airman’s entire career. Any Article 15 received within two years of the PECD and recommended for

placement in the selection folder by a commander will also be visible.

The evaluation board will provide a score for each Airman’s record. That board score will replace an Airman’s weighted EPR points score from the Phase I portion of the process. The board score is then combined with the remaining WAPS factor scores from Phase I to produce a final overall score. Ultimately, this final WAPS score allows the creation of an order of merit that ranks Airmen by total score for each AFSC. For the last step, the promotion quota is applied to each AFSC order of merit to determine the final master sergeant promotion selections Consistent with current practice, deployed Airmen and those serving in a temporary duty assignment location unable to test during the normal testing cycle will be considered for promotion through the supplemental promotion process.

Additional SNCO Promotion Adjustments The Air Force is also adjusting the WAPS scoring model for chief and senior master sergeant promotions beginning with the 15E9 chief master sergeant and 16E8 senior master sergeant promotion cycles. Starting with these cycles, weighted EPR points will no longer be included in the final WAPS score calculations for promotion eligible master sergeants and senior master sergeants.

Airmen competing for promotion to senior master sergeant and chief master sergeant will have their points calculated using the following factors: United States Air Force supervisory examination, time in grade, time in service, decorations and a board score. Additionally, to be promotion eligible master sergeants and senior master sergeants must have completed a Community College of the Air Force degree, in any discipline, and must have completed the Senior NCO Academy via correspondence or in-residence, on or before the PECD. Details on the composition of the SNCO enlisted performance reports are scheduled for release in spring 2015.

To ensure records and weighted factor scores are accurately calculated, Airmen should review their records in the Personnel Records Display Application, accessible via the myPers website.

When reviewing records, Airmen should ensure their EPRs, decorations, control AFSC, total active federal military service date, and date of rank are accurate on their data verification record and that all decorations and EPRs are reflected correctly in PRDA. For more information about the two-phase master sergeant promotion process and enlisted evaluations and promotions changes, visit the myPers website.
