JBAB celebrates second anniversary, fleet, family and fighter BY JOSEPH P CIRONE JOINT BASE ANACOSTIA-BOLLING PUBLIC AFFAIRS

JOINT BASE ANACOSTIABOLLING, D.C. — Celebrating Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling’s (JBAB) second anniversary and the Navy’s birthday, JBAB is highlighting some of the outstanding military, civilian and family members who live, work or visit the installation. Thousands of people live or work at JBAB. It is home to many DOD commands and units. JBAB’s mission is to provide exceptional support and base services to those DOD entities.

JBAB was officially established on Oct. 1, 2010 as part of a congressionally-mandated Base Realignment and Closure Commission initiative. It combined duplicative Air Force and Navy base operating support services at the former Bolling Air Force Base; Naval Support Facility Anacostia and Bellevue Navy Housing Area, in an effort to improve efficiency, effectiveness and be better stewards of taxpayer funding. As the nation’s premier joint base, JBAB supports presidential, ceremonial, homeland security, defense support to civil authorities

and national security missions conducted by all five of the nation’s armed forces, the National Guard and federal agencies. As a subordinate command of the commander, Navy Installation Command (CNIC), JBAB’s mission supports the Fleet, Fighter and Family. Supporting the fleet enables the operating forces of the nation’s military to perform its mission. Sup-

porting the fighter helps ensure that the training, readiness, resourcing and informational needs of the military’s fighting force are met. Supporting the family ensures that the men and women of the armed forces, their families and DOD and Coast Guard civilians are well cared for. Oct. 13 marks the Navy’s 237th birthday. Honoring the occasion, JBAB is capitalizing on the CNIC role in supporting the Fleet, Fighter

and Family by participating with other select Navy Public Affairs offices on three projects, designed to capture the legacy of service to the military and beyond.

DOD, Coast Guard personnel, families needed for videos The first project aligns with supporting the fighter and is similar to Good Morning America's "Your Three Words" videos

Radar accidently discovered at JBAB BY LT. CMDR. JIM REMINGTON JOINT BASE ANACOSTIA-BOLLING PUBLIC AFFAIRS

WASHINGTON — Radar was accidently discovered at a Navy base in the nation’s capital. Today, that base is home to many of the nation’s important military and federal commands, units and agencies. The Navy's 237th birthday gives occasion to look back on its broad and proud history, and a little known facet of its history - that of Naval Air Station (NAS) Anacostia. With the transition of the base to what is now known as Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling (JBAB), after it was merged with the former Bolling Air Force Base, many military and civilian personnel who live, work or visit it today are unaware of its role (as NAS Anacostia) as an operational naval

air station or its prominence in naval and world military history. Naval aviation got its start at JBAB in 1917, when the War Department authorized the drained swamp area along the east side of the Anacostia River, known as the "Anacostia Flats," for Navy seaplane testing. In 1918, the Navy's first year at the site, it built two runways and two hangars, which it shared with the Army Air Corps (predecessor of the U.S. Air Force), and began testing seaplanes. By 1926, the location was officially designated as a naval air station, which by then, was supporting conventional aircraft. To the northeast, the Army was operating from Bolling Field (later renamed, Bolling Air Force Base). During World War II, NAS Anacostia expanded considerably, becoming a primary training base for naval aviation. During this expansion,

the Navy paved the runways and made the station the home of Navy Flight Test Operations. In June 1933, Douglas Aircraft Company tested its first fighter at JBAB, a U.S. Navy prototype biplane, designated the XFD-1. In 1941, the Navy tested a rare photographic reconnaissance aircraft, the BD-1, which was the naval version of the Army Air Corps’ XF-3. Flight test operations continued at Anacostia until overcrowding caused the Navy to move the mission to NAS Patuxent River in 1943.

Radar – an accident! The history of radar began with experiments in the 19th century, but it wasn't until the early-

Fire safety tips to help keep you safe BY JEFF WILLIAMS BATTALION CHIEF NDW FIRE AND EMERGENCY SERVICES

The Naval District Washington Fire & Emergency Services would like to remind everyone that you are the first link when it comes to fire safety at work and at home. Ensuring your safety not only includes being safe, but knowing what to do should you experience a fire at work or at home. Here are some fire safety tips that we suggest you follow to help keep you safe.

Home Fires • One home structure fire was reported every 85 seconds in 2010. • 92% of all civilian structure fire deaths resulted from home structure fires. • Most fatal fires kill one or two people. In 2010, 19 home fires killed five or more people. • These 19 fires resulted in 101 deaths nationwide. • In 2010, U.S. fire departments responded to 369,500 home structure fires. • These fires caused 13,350 civilian injuries, 2,640 civilian deaths, and $6.9 billion in direct damage. • 8% of reported home fires started in the bedroom. These fires caused 25% of home fire deaths, 21% of home fire injuries, and 14% of the direct property damage • Almost two-thirds (62%) of reported home fire deaths resulted from fires in homes with no smoke alarms or no working smoke alarms.

Smoke Alarms • Install smoke alarms in every bedroom, outside each separate sleeping area and on every level of the home, including the basement. Interconnect all smoke alarms throughout the home. When one sounds, they all sound. • Test alarms at least monthly by pushing the test button and be sure to re[lace the batteries in these devices at least one a year. • Be sure to replace smoke alarms every 10 years in accordance with the manufactures recommendations. • Ninety-six percent of all homes have at least one smoke alarm, according to a 2010 telephone survey. Overall, three-quarters of all U.S. homes have at least one working smoke alarm • Almost two-thirds (62%) of reported home fire deaths resulted from fires in homes with no smoke alarms or no working smoke alarms. • Almost two-thirds of home fire deaths in 2005-2009 resulted from fires in homes with no smoke alarms or no working smoke alarms. •Working smoke alarms improve your chances of surviving a fire in your home by 50% and are an inexpensive device to ensure you and your familys safety. • Smoke alarms that include a recordable voice announcement in addition to the usual alarm sound, may be helpful in waking children through the use of a familiar voice. • Smoke alarms are available for people who are deaf or hard of hearing.These devices use strobe lights.Vibration devices can be added to these alarms • Smoke alarms are an important part of a home fire escape plan.

Cooking • Cooking has been the leading cause of reported home fires and home fire injuries since 1990. Unattended cooking was by far

the leading cause of these fires; Two-thirds of home cooking fires began with ignition of cooking materials, including food, cooking oil, fat, or grease . • Cooking caused two of every five (42%) of reported home fires, roughly one of every seven (15%) home fire deaths, and two of every five (37%) home fire injuries, and 11% of direct property damage from home fires in 2010. • Ranges accounted for the 58% of home cooking fire incidents. Ovens accounted for 16%. • Children under five face a higher risk of non-fire burns associated with cooking than being burned in a cooking fire.

Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling Commuter Fair

Smoking Materials • In 2010, smoking materials started and estimated 17,500 home structure fires, resulting in 540 deaths, 1,320 injuries and $535 million in direct property damage. Smoking materials are the leading cause of home fire deaths. • Sleep was a factor in two of every five home smoking material fire deaths. Possible alcohol impairment was reported in one quarter of these deaths.. • In recent years, Canada and the United States have required that all cigarettes sold must be fire safe, that is have reduced ignition strength and less likely to start fires. • If you have smokers or you are a smoker, please be sure to have large deep receptacles to extinguish you smoking material and ensure they are completely out before going to bed. • If you smoke at work, please remember to follow the NDW Smoking Policy and use the approved smoking areas only.

Candles • On average, there are 35 home candle fires reported per day. • More than one-third of these fires started in the bedroom. • More than half of all candle fires start when things that can burn are too close to the candle. • In 2010, candles caused 3% of home fires, 4% of home fire deaths, 6% of home fire injuries and 5% of direct property damage from home fires. • As a reminder, the use of candles at work is prohibited in accordance with the NDWINSTR 11320.10E.

Featuring: Van pool providers

Home Fire Sprinklers • Automatic fire sprinkler systems cut the risk of dying in a home fire by about 83%. • Home fire sprinklers can contain and may even extinguish a fire in less time than it would take the fire department to arrive on the scene. • Sprinklers are highly effective because they react so quickly in a fire..They reduce the risk of death or injury from a fire because they dramatically reduce the heat, flames and smoke produced, allowing people time to evacuate the home. The Naval District Washington Fire & Emergency Services would like to remind everyone that by following these simple but vital tips, the chances of you or your family experiencing a home or workplace fire can be greatly reduced. If you have any questions regarding Fire/Life Safety either at work or t home or need to schedule your Annual Evacuation drill please contact your installation Fire Prevention Division. In the event of an emergency on Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, all residents and tenant organizations should call the base hotline at 202-433-3333.

Celebrating the birth and history of the U.S. Navy BY LT. CMDR. JIM REMINGTON JOINT BASE ANACOSTIA-BOLLING PUBLIC AFFAIRS

JOINT BASE ANACOSTIA-BOLLING, D.C. —The U.S. Navy is celebrating its 237 proud years of history. The global birthday commemoration includes a coordinated Navy-wide bell ringing ceremony and several localized events across Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling and Naval District Washington leading up to Saturday, October 13th. The annual Navy birthday celebration hails back to the foundation of the Continental Navy in 1775. The original impetus for its creation was the intercept of materiel bound for British soldiers holding Boston under martial law. The Rhode Island General Assembly took the first step toward creation of a navy in June 1775. It established a force of armed vessels to protect its merchants which were being harassed by Royal Navy frigates for their role in widespread continental commerce, which the British viewed as smuggling. In August the assembly went a step further by passing a resolution that there should be a single Continental fleet funded by the Continental Congress. By September Gen. George Washington had begun acquiring armed vessels. In fact, Washington paid for the very first vessel launched on September 5th, the schooner Hannah, from his own personal wealth. On October 3rd, Rhode Island delegates introduced a measure to the Continental Congress to create the Navy. The

In the following weeks another ship, Alfred, was purchased and commissioned on November 4th, and by November 10th Congress authorized two battalions of Marines to be raised for service with the fleet. By the end of November, Congress passed the Continental Navys governing regulations as drafted by John Adams. The Rhode Island resolution introduced during the first week of October was reconsidered and passed by the Continental Congress on December 13, 1775. The resolution specifically authorized the building of thirteen frigates within the next three months: five with 32 guns, five with 28 guns, and three with 24 guns. The Continental Navy served the cause of independence from Great Britain with approximately 65 vessels in its service. Some of those were new, others converted, chartered, loaned, or captured. By the end of the war in 1783, only 11 ships survived. Not long after, the Continental Navy was disbanded and the remaining ships sold. The frigate Alliance, which is said to

While there was a faction in Congress that wanted to keep the ship, our young nation lacked the funds to keep her in service, and she was auctioned off to a private bidder for $26,000. Eleven years later, conflicts between American merchant shipping and pirates in the Mediterranean Sea led to the Naval Act of 1794. The act established the United States Navy we know today. It has been in uninterrupted service ever since.

port to the fleet and the training and readiness of the military personnel. It highlights former military personnel who are now successful in their lives and who express appreciation for their time in the military. Many former military personnel attribute their success in post-military life to what they learned in the military. They are now city and community leaders, businessmen, health care professionals, chefs, journalists, educators, technicians, engineers, lawyers, electricians, entrepreneurs and corporate CEOs. They credit their military service with helping them to successfully navigate their post-military lives. JBAB is looking for former military members who are willing to share their story about their military experience; which skills they learned during their time in uniform that helped them achieve their current success; how the military impacted their life and which part of the military stayed with them long after their official service ended. The edited video interviews will be shared on social media platforms and a DOD news media video distribution site, so people worldwide understand how military experiences are valuable and stay with a person long after they have left the service. The videos will be produced at JBAB or on location, any place in the National Capital Region, preferred by the military or civilian members and families. Military and civilian personnel; families; commands or units interested in participating in one or more of the projects may contact JBAB Public Affairs via email to: joseph.cirone@navy.mil.

House fire disaster averted by alert fire inspector; officials stress calling base emergency number BY JOSEPH P. CIRONE JOINT BASE ANACOSTIABOLLING PUBLIC AFFAIRS

WASHINGTON – An alert fire inspector at Joint Base AnacostiaBolling (JBAB) helped avert what could have been a disastrous outcome on Oct. 9 when smoke filled a house on March Lane on JBAB. Naval DistrictWashington Fire and Emergency Services Central Battalion (NDW F&ES) Battalion Chief John McDonald said the JBAB emergency number was not called, resulting in a delay dispatching firefighters. While one occupant was asleep in a third floor room of the home and two other occupants were outdoors decorating for Halloween, heavy smoke filled the second and third floor, according to a fire department report. Smelling the smoke outdoors, one of the residents rushed indoors and removed the sleeping occupant. Once safely outdoors and the three residents were accounted for, one of them called 91-1 on a cellular telephone at approximately 11:39 a.m., which alerted the District of Columbia Fire and EMS (D.C. FEMS) depart-

ment. NDW F&ES Fire InspectorTim McCoy noticed D.C. FEMS Engine Co. 33, located a distance from JBAB, responding to an emergency at JBAB and alerted the NDW Regional Emergency Dispatch Center. Dispatchers communicated with D.C. FEMS dispatchers and learned of the emergency situation. As additional D.C. FEMS units were responding to JBAB and the original D.C. FEMS unit continued its response, two NDW F&ES pumpers; an Ambulance and two Chiefs, were dispatched and responded to the scene.

BASE EMERGENCY NUMBER – 202-433-3333, NOT 9-1-1 NDW F&ES District Chief Mark Hendley, said, “Once again we need to emphasize to the residents and base population, the importance of utilizing the base Emergency Number [202-4333333] for all Police, Fire, EMS and related emergencies.” “We have a fire department on base,” Hendley stressed.

A total of 53 Firefighters and Emergency Medical Service (EMS) personnel, staffing seven pumpers; two ladder trucks; one rescue truck; two ambulances; four chief officers and two additional units from the NDW F&ES and the D.C. FEMS departments responded to the emergency. An additional NDW F&ES pumper, ladder truck and HazMat unit were on another emergency call nearby. One additional D.C. Fire and EMS pumper also responded to JBAB, but was returned before arriving at the scene. JBAB-based NDW F&ES Engine 41 was the first fire suppression unit to arrive at the scene. McDonald, the first arriving chief officer, assumed command at the scene. The pumper’s crew quickly established a water supply at the nearest fire hydrant; deployed a fire attack hose line, entering the structure and performed a search to ensure all occupants were safety evacuated from the building. D.C. FEMS units and NDW F&ES Engine 42 (based at the Washington NavyYard) combined efforts to quickly locate the source

of the smoke at a stove; contain the situation and remove the smoke from the dwelling. There were no injuries as a result of the emergency, McDonald reported. The cause of the emergency was determined to be items left unattended on the stove. Oct. 713 is Fire Prevention Week. In addition to remembering to call 202433-3333 for any emergency at JBAB, the NDW F&ES emphasizes that items should never be left unattended while cooking. The NDW F&ES Central Battalion Headquarters is located at JBAB. JBAB’s NDW F&ES assets include at least one pumper, ladder company, ambulance, chief officer and a foam unit.Two additional NDW F&ES pumpers, and a Haz-Mat unit are located nearby at adjacent and contiguous naval installations. Additionally, JBAB has fullytrained DOD police officers and military security personnel; Emergency Medical Technicians, Paramedics, safety and emergency management personnel, helping to ensure the safety and security of its residents, workers and visitors.

JOINT BASE ANACOSTIA-BOLLING, D.C. — Air Force service members from Joint Base Andrew’s 79th MedicalWing and Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling’s 579th Medical Group came together Oct. 5 for some good natured competition and all-important team building, as the two organizations participated in its annual Sports Day event on the grounds of JBAB’s Giesboro Park. Under a bright morning sun service members challenged one another in activities like kickball, volleyball, a relay race and tug-of-war competition. Sprinkled into the mix was even a three-point shooting contest and pie-eating contest. Lunch included hamburgers and hot dogs and, of course, many smiles to go around. “This is a great turnout. Definitely a big morale booster,” said Senior Airman Loretta Riggle, an optometrist with JBAB’s 579th MDG. “It’s really nice to have both bases together. It’s a chance to spend time with one another outside the office.” Those sentiments were shared by Dr. (Lt. Col.) Joseph Beard, of JBAs 79th MW. It was his first Sports Day event since joining the organization. “It’s a lot of fun. I’m glad the weather was good to us today,” Beard said. “It’s really well-or-

I’m also happy to have a chance to see the people I work with in a different light. That’s the nicest thing about something like this.” Maj. Lauren Byrd, resource management flight commander for JBAs 79th MW, said the event was clearly a great way to build camaraderie. “It’s so nice to see everyone having a good time. Usually the only time we get to be around one another is during the day-to-day grind of the job,” Byrd said.“We couldn’t have asked for a better day, or a better turnout for an event like this.”

JOINT BASE ANACOSTIABOLLING, D.C. — With every service promoting healthy living and healthy choices, Joint Base Anacostia Bolling (JBAB)'s junior enlisted are encouraging fellow service members, civilians, contractors and dependents to stay in shape by exercising and sharing personal tips on staying healthy. "I have been in the Navy for almost a year and I play basketball to stay in shape," said Seaman ZacharyWright, a member of the Navy Ceremonial Guard. "I focus on getting a lot of cardio exercise in. When we are running full court, I give it all I have because it helps me stay fit. When I do my physical readiness test (PRT), I found that it feels like that when I am playing basketball. After that, I do a lot of push-ups, sit-ups and jumping jacks.." Wright said since joining the Navy, he has been educated on the importance of staying physically fit and understands that it is his duty to keep his body, health and mind up to standards. "Before I joined, I wasn't lazy, I just didn't understand how important my health was, he said. Now, whenever my shipmates and I have some time, we try to play basketball or football. In my mind, staying healthy means staying active. While some service members use sports as a way to stay fit, others use different ways to get exercise. "I love to do spin classes," said Seaman Dewaylon Farr, a member of the Navy Ceremonial Guard. "I used to laugh at them until I tried it. They are fun, have music and its really challenging. Spinning classes are aerobic classes done in a fitness studio on spinning bikes, with various light and music settings to create an energized atmosphere. Instructors guide participants

through workout phases while participants control resistance on their bike to make the pedaling as easy or difficult as they choose. Constant adjustment is normal. Farr mentioned some classes have been so difficult that his legs were sore afterwards. "It doesn't matter if someone does spin, soccer or tennis," he said. "The important thing is that everyone is getting the exercise that is needed to stay in shape. I have friends that stay in shape playing ultimate Frisbee, and some that stay in shape from running. Personal health is important not only to our jobs, but also our everyday lives. With today's technology, we have the information needed to stay healthy. My mom always said if we know better, then we should do better. So if we know what is needed to stay healthy, we need to go through with it and do it. According to the Navy physical readiness program, it has become increasingly important for all Navy personnel to maintain a minimum prescribed level of physical fitness necessary for world-wide deployment, whenever or wherever needed. "It makes me happy knowing that I can work out in more ways than just running or conventional exercises," Farr said. "Since I started spinning more than a year ago, I've toned up my legs, arms and everything else. This is a total body workout that keeps my muscles in shape and burns a lot of calories. Spin is a major stress reliever. I think that spin was one of the easiest things I started in my life. It is adjustable to everyone. Even if you are injured, you can just adjust your workout to your limitations." For information on spinning classes, contact the fitness center at 202767-5895 or the aerobic center at 202767-8821.

Sister-service PME provides valuable joint tool BY STAFF SGT. AMANDA DICK AIR FORCE PUBLIC AFFAIRS AGENCY

WASHINGTON (AFNS) — As part of a career broadening opportunity, a new nomination and selection process to attend sister-service enlisted professional military education (EPME) courses has been established for senior non-commissioned officers. "The significance rests with the transformation from a first-come, first-served process to one that incorporates deliberate development and a return on investment," said Chief Master Sgt. Timothy Horn, the chief of Air Force Enlisted Developmental Education. "We owe it to both our Airmen and our Air Force to put this level of rigor into our developmental processes." To be eligible for sister-service senior NCO courses, Airmen must not only be nominated by their unit, but must also meet the specific

criteria of the applicable service.The package must then be submitted through a board process at the unit's major command, where the first cut is made. From there, packages are sent to an Air Force-level board that determines the selectees who are given final approval by the chief master sergeant of the Air Force. For Master Sgt. Michael Noel, the chance to attend a joint EPME course is invaluable. "I wanted a different PME perspective," said Noel, Secretary of the Air Force Public Affairs office superintendent of force management. "I'm really interested to see how other services (work), to see what kinds of issues they talk about when it comes to leadership and management.We all have a common goal to be effective leaders. So, I want the challenge of going somewhere else and finding out what I can learn from it." Noel attended the U.S. Marine Corps Staff

Noncommissioned Officer Academy Advanced Course at Marine Corps Base Quantico, Va. recently, which is one of the approved classes Air Force senior NCOs can attend in place of the Air Force Senior NCO Academy. The course also provides the joint tools needed to become an effective senior enlisted leader. "Sister-service EPME opportunities provide our Airmen with a perspective that is critical to today's joint warfighter," Chief Master Sgt. of the Air Force James Roy said. "We're operating more and more in the joint environment, so it makes sense to train and educate that way. This helps us understand our joint partners better." That joint partnership is exactly what sister-service members hope for. "I think it's really important for Air Force senior enlisted management, like Master Sergeant Noel, to come here and actually see the

type of leadership training we get, to get a better flavor for what we do, especially now that we get more joint," said U.S. Marine Corps Gunnery Sgt. Kevin Simmons, from Company I Marine Cryptologic Support Battalion in Hawaii. "He's assimilated right in with the group. It's been great to have him here." Noel's biggest piece of advice for other senior NCOs in the joint-EPME environment is to have the "right mindset, to go in with an open mind and be willing to listen to those other perspectives." Other joint PME courses include the U.S. Army Sergeants Major Academy at Fort Bliss, Texas; the U.S. Navy Senior Enlisted Academy at Newport, R.I.; the U.S. Coast Guard Chief Petty Officer Academy at Petaluma, Calif.; and the U.S. Marine Corps courses also located at Camp Pendleton, Calif., Camp Lejeune, N.C., and Camp Butler, Japan.

Navy torpedoes Falcons, 28-21, in OT BY DON BRANUM AIR FORCE ACADEMY PUBLIC AFFAIRS

U.S. AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. (AFNS) —Three fumbles and two missed field goals cost Air Force the win, and likely the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy, in a 28-21 overtime loss to Navy at Falcon Stadium Oct. 6. Navy captured the momentum in the second quarter, forcing three turnovers on three successive Air Force drives, and never gave momentum back even after the Falcons took a 21-13 lead in the fourth quarter. The Falcons' first touchdown came on a four-play, 75-yard sortie capped with a 35yard strike from Connor Dietz to Drew Coleman. After stopping Navy on their first possession, Air Force marched down field again, but Parker Harrington missed a chip shot, sending a 27-yard field goal attempt wide left.. Navy stole momentum in the second quarter, as Navy's Cody Peterson forced Broam Hart to fumble. Tra'ves Bush recovered the fumble and ran it to the Midshipmen 39. Navy took the lead on a six-play, 61 yard drive set up by a 25-yard Gee Gee Greene run and capped by Noah Copeland's first career touchdown. The Falcons fumbled on their next two possessions, losing their second fumble deep inside Navy territory and their third near midfield. A personal foul against the Midshipmen kept them out of the end zone, but they walked into the locker room at half-

time with a 10-7 lead. Navy sputtered on its opening drive on the second half. The two teams traded possession until Air Force staged a 14-play, 83yard drive in the final minutes of the third quarter to take a 14-10 lead on a 21-yard scamper by Cody Getz. Miller orchestrated a Navy drive that started at the 20 and continued into Air Force territory before stalling at the Air Force 24. Miller left the game on after being tackled on third down: He limped off the field with help from two Navy coaches. Air Force dropped a bomb on its next drive, scoring on a 54-yard flea flicker from Dante Strickland to Drew Coleman. But Navy, led by freshman quarterback Keenan Reynolds, returned the favor with a drive that moved 75 yards in just over two minutes. Noah Copeland took the ball into the end zone on a two-point conversion to tie the game at 21. That was the last score in regulation, as Parker Harrington's 51-yard field goal attempt sailed left of the uprights. Air Force deferred to Navy to start overtime, and the Midshipmen capitalized, with offensive lineman Jake Zuzek falling on a fumbled snap for the go-ahead touchdown. Air Force's overtime possession ended when Navy's Wes Henderson batted down a Connor Dietz pass intended for Chris Jordan. "Every game for us, we talk about turnover margin," Falcons head coach Troy Calhoun said. "Credit Navy for not turning it

The Midshipmen defeated the Falcons in overtime, 28-21. over. For us, not being able to handle the ball as well as we needed to ... was a critical part of the game." The bright spot in Air Force's loss was Cody Getz, who rushed for his third 200-yard game this season and his fifth-straight game with more than 100 yards. Getz's perform-

ance makes him the first Falcon ever to have three 200-yard games in a season and the second player in MountainWest conference history with that accomplishment. Only two other Falcons, Beau Morgan and Dee Dowis, have three or more 200-yard games in their careers.

RADAR n

Continued from 1

20th century that practical testing began, which discovered something new, quite by accident. In the autumn of 1922, Cmdr. Albert H. Taylor and Mr. Leo C. Young, both working for the U.S. Naval Aircraft Radio Laboratory at NAS Anacostia, were conducting communications experiments. During their tests, they noticed that a wooden ship in the Potomac River was interfering with their high frequency radio transmissions between Anacostia and a receiver, across the river at Hains Point. The observation and analysis of the phenomenon was a basic step in the chain of events that led to the U.S. Navy's invention of radar. By 1930, Lawrence A. Hyland began working with Taylor and Young at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory, which is located on the contiguous Navy property to the south of JBAB. He used a similar arrangement to detect a passing aircraft. The three men ran several tests, varying antenna shape and radio frequencies. They drove a receiver around in a car, to simulate the motion of a ship as it might try to detect an airborne plane. Since aircraft evolved as a serious weapon of war, recognition of Hyland's role surpassed that of Taylor's and Young's. This spectacular technological development rapidly evolved for several military applications and resulted in the Navy’s deployment of radar antenna prototypes, including that seen on USS New York (BB 34) in 1938. From its accidental discovery in the 20th century, radar has since become an important part of our daily lives and has many applications beyond the mil-

itary arena, including weather and civil aviation.

Transition to JBAB NAS Anacostia remained in service as an active naval air station until 1962. In that year, its runways were deactivated for fixed-wing aircraft, at the same time as those of Bolling Air Force Base, due to traffic pattern issues with nearby Washington Reagan National Airport. In 1962, the NAS was re-designated as Naval Support Facility (NSF) Anacostia. By then, its place was forever secured in naval and military history. NSF Anacostia was a direct subordinate of Naval District Washington, before it, and the Naval Research Laboratory became components of the Naval Support Activity Washington(NSAW). On Oct. 1, 2010, the former NSF Anacostia was detached from NSAW, and along with Bolling Air Force Base and Bellevue Navy Housing Area, were combined as part of a Congressionallymandated Base Realignment and Closure Commission initiative to eliminate duplicative Air Force and Navy base operating support services, in an effort to improve efficiency, effectiveness and be better stewards of taxpayer funding. Today, thousands of people live or work at JBAB. It is home to many DOD commands and units. JBAB’s mission is to provide exceptional support and base services to those DOD entities. As the nation’s premier joint base, JBAB supports presidential, ceremonial, homeland security, defense support to civil authorities and national security missions, conducted by all five of the nation’s armed forces, the National Guard and federal agencies.
