Audie Murphy Club welcomes new member Katie Peterson | Staff Writer

Sgt. 1st Class Vincent Jarman, watch commander, Headquarters and Headquarters Company, Joint Regional Correctional Facility, 705th Military Police Battalion (Detention), was officially inducted as the newest member of the Lamp Chapter of the Sergeant Audie Murphy Club in a ceremony Aug. 23 in DePuy Auditorium. Audie Murphy is the most decorated soldier in American history, earning every medal of valor given by the United States, as well as one Belgian medal and three French medals. He was discharged from the Army on Sept. 21, 1945, and moved to Hollywood where he became a wellknown author, actor, producer, songwriter and poet. He was killed in a plane crash on May 28, 1971, at the age of 46. SAMC President Sgt. 1st Class William Speer said Jarman is a noncommissioned officer committed to the welfare of his soldiers and the nation like Audie Murphy. “He is truly a selfless NCO,” Speer said. Jarman has volunteered with SAMC for the Adopt-a-Highway clean up, numerous color guards, the Veterans Affairs trail clean-up and maintenance and the Meals on Wheels program. He said volunteering with Meals on Wheels is his favorite. “Actually getting out there, talking to some of the population we work with who are is not really able to get out and take care of themselves in the ways they used to be able to and talk to them, find out their stories, learn a little bit about their lives and provide them with that service is a great thing,” Jarman said. “I love participating in it.” As part of his induction, Jarman was presented with a certificate of achievement, a framed biography of Audie Murphy, a membership card certifying him as a lifelong member, and the SAMC medallion featuring the club crest, designed by original SAMC organizer and professional illustrator Don Moore. Mission Command Center of Excellence Sgt. Maj. Christopher Prosser, who served as the guest speaker, said the awards presented to new SAMC members are just byproducts of the things NCOs do every day. He said it is about the way NCOs emulate the actions and values of Audie Murphy. “It is the things that you don’t read about that really make Audie Murphy who he was,” Prosser said. “He joined the Army during war, knowing he was going to war. During his two years and four months in combat, he went from being a rifleman to a company commander. He was an enlisted soldier to a commissioned officer. “During an engagement on the border of Germany and France, Sergeant Murphy, who was shot in the leg by enemy fire, mounted a disabled tank destroyer and employed a machine gun to repel the attack of an entire Germany company for over an hour. He was wounded again

during the defense and only when he ran out of ammunition did he fall back to ensure that his wounded soldiers were treated and evacuated,” he said. “When he was asked at his Medal of Honor ceremony what makes someone do something like that, he simply said they were killing my friends, and I had something that I had to do. That’s the legacy of Sergeant Audie Murphy that lives on in our noncommissioned officers.” Prosser said being an NCO is a calling, not a job. “The words of the medallion are three and they say, ‘outstanding noncommissioned officer.’ That’s powerful,” Prosser said. “We’re entrusted with the lives of America’s sons and daughters and that is a responsibility we should not take lightly. Our soldiers’ survival rests in our competence, character, candor and commitment. That’s what this award is about. “Like Sergeant Murphy, Sergeant Jarman’s story doesn’t begin today. His journey began in 2006 … and it wasn’t the big things that he did that led him to sit here today,” he said. “It was the inner drive that noncommissioned officers like Sergeant Jarman have every day. It is getting up early. It is checking the barracks. It is conducting physical training. It is counseling soldiers on potential, mentoring commissioned officers to be future higher-level leaders. It is training to standard regardless of the situation, regardless of the conditions and being a role model for all noncommissioned officers. It is the day-to-day operations great noncommissioned officers do to set an example just like Sergeant Murphy did 75 years ago.” Prosser said when he spoke with Jarman during the interview process for potential induction, Jarman said his favorite part of being an NCO was watching his soldiers develop. “He didn’t say it was standing in front of formation barking orders. He didn’t say it was the pay. He watches his soldiers develop,” Prosser said. “That’s very authentic because it is about the noncommissioned officers that came before him that showed him what great looks like. “I challenge each leader in this room today, be it commissioned or noncommissioned officers, to be the leader you want to be led by,” he said. “Be an inspiration to others. There is only one way to do that. Lead like Sergeant Murphy did — from the front and unwavering in your standards.” Jarman said being officially inducted as a SAMC member was a goal he’s had for himself for several years. “I remember seeing a lot of NCOs who would be the person soldiers would go to to get the help that they need, that always had the answer. I remember seeing that (as a private) and wanting to be that,” Jarman said. “I think that the club has done a lot of things not only to improve knowledge base and professionalism, but to also increase media relations with post and with the surrounding community.

“Overall, the members of the club have shown to be professionals and have shown to be excellent NCOs, excellent at what

they do, and I just wanted to be like them the entire time,” he said. “Now, I’m just hoping that this is a stepping stone on the

way to continue to improve upon what I know and what I can do and just keep going.”

FORT LEAVENWORTH LAMP

On-post school enrollment numbers down at Patton are all open. For more information, contact the respective schools.

Katie Peterson | Staff Writer

Current enrollment numbers for the 2019-20 schoolyear were announced during the Unified School District 207 monthly board meeting Aug. 26 at the board office. As of Aug. 23, 1,829 students are enrolled in pre-kindergarten through ninth-grade, approximately 50 students less from August 2018. “I don’t know, but I believe it is related to housing challenges to start the schoolyear in relation to the flipping of houses and doing some data break location placements,” said Keith Mispagel, USD 207 superintendent of schools. Mispagel said it is possible for more students to arrive as more families move onto Fort Leavenworth. Although overall enrollment numbers are down, the ninthgrade class has doubled from 2018 with 66 students enrolled compared to 33. “They are doing wonderful,” said Ryan Wiebe, Patton Junior High School principal. “They like being called freshman.” The final count date for enrollment is Sept. 20.

MacArthur and Eisenhower renovations During the meeting, the board approved two renovation projects, one at MacArthur and one at Eisenhower. This schoolyear, pre-kindergarten enrollment has increased causing MacArthur to add a third pre-kindergarten class. However, the special area for the younger students in the basement of MacArthur, which includes a special entrance and smaller restrooms, is only made for two classrooms of students. Therefore, the renovation will include the addition of two more classrooms to accompany the current pre-kindergarten classrooms so that all three classes are in the same area. Renovations are expected to be finished by the start of the second semester in January 2020. At Eisenhower, exterior LED lights will be installed on the north end of the school for increased visibility. The lights are expected to be installed mid-fall.

MISA membership renewed

Freedom Walk The 12th annual USD 207 Freedom Walk is at 9:30 a.m. Sept. 11 at Normandy Field. The theme is “Honoring Our First Responders.” SuAnn Grant, USD 207 deputy superintendent, said it will include as many first responders both on- and off-post as possible as the honorees. During the event, four students — a sixth-grader from each elementary school and a ninth-grader from Patton — will read their respective essays, “What Freedom Means to Me,” the Patton Singers will lead attendees in patriotic songs, and there will be a guest speaker who is yet to be determined. All students will walk to Normandy Field with the exception of pre-kindergarten students who will be bused.

Emergency drills On April 10, Kansas Governor Laura Kelly signed Senate Bill 128, made effective July 1, changing the number of safety drills in Kansas schools from 16 to nine. In 2018, each school was re-

quired to conduct four fire drills, three tornado drills and nine crisis drills. Mispagel said while adding crisis drills were positive, many superintendents across Kansas expressed concern that nine was overwhelming. Therefore, Kansas schools are now only required to conduct four fire drills, two tornado drills (one in September and one in March) and three cri-

sis drills. “I’m most pleased with only the three crisis drills as opposed to the nine because I don’t believe in creating fear in the kids,” Mispagel said.

Site Council openings During the meeting, the board approved the Site Council roster for each school as provided by the building principals.

Members include a mixture of new and returning parents. Bradley and Eisenhower Elementary Schools and Patton still have openings for leadership positions. Positions for a president at Bradley, a vice president/secretary and sunshine committee chair at Eisenhower, and a vice president, and seventh-, eighth-, and ninth-grade representatives

The board approved the renewal of USD 207’s Military Impacted Schools Association membership. “MISA is a national organization of school superintendents … who serve school districts with a high concentration of military children,” according to the official MISA website. “MISA works on funding (Impact Aid), legislation, partnerships and programs for military families on the move.” Accomplishments of MISA over the last year include a $10 million increase in Impact Aid funds and Congressional support of special education funding. For more information about MISA, visit www.militaryimpactedschoolsassociation.org. All board meetings are open to the public. For a complete overview of the meeting and the minutes, visit https://www.boarddocs.com/ks/u sd207/Board.nsf/Public. The next USD 207 board meeting is at 4:30 p.m. Sept. 18 in the Patton auditorium.

Veterinary facility hosts stuffed animal clinic Katie Peterson | Staff Writer

Piglet Morgan and twins Tigger and Tigger Morgan have been lifelong companions to 12-year-old Isabella Morgan and 10year-old Bryn Morgan, so it was time for them to freshen up at the Fort Leavenworth Veterinary Treatment Facility’s Stuffed Animal Clinic Aug. 26-28. “Isabella and Bryn have had Tigger and Piglet since they were infants and, when they get a lot of love, they need a little help to keep going on,” said Sarah Morgan, Isabella and Bryn’s mom. “I think (the clinic) is adorable. It is a really good way for kids to keep the stuffed animals they really like a lot fresh. Also, most people have pets and they take their animals to the vet, so it is sweet from a child’s perspective to be able to take their stuffed toys there, too.” Piglet and the Tigger Twins joined Everest the dog, owned by 3-year-old Brayden Horner, for the fourth annual clinic where they were treated with sutures and received reverse liposuction (stuffing) before they were returned to their owners with a clean bill of health. “(The clinic) gives (the children) an opportunity to see what happens in a vet clinic because some of them come through and they get to see where we put their animals,” said Alyson Jones, VTF operations assistant. When the “patients”

come in, an intake form is filled out indicating the services needed. Then they stay in the clinic for a day or two to be treated. “It is an in-patient pro-

cedure,” Jones said. “It is really an opportunity to practice suture techniques, but we’ll take a look and we’ll do what we can. Sometimes, if it is too deli-

cate and it’s not something we feel comfortable with, we’ll practice vet wrap techniques. “Then, (the owners) are called and told that their

patient is ready for check out,” she said. “When they come back to pick their stuffed animal up, they’ll get a chart that has their intake form, an examination report to see what the doctor found when they looked at it, and a health certificate giving them a clean bill of health at the end.” Sutures are often the main services needed, which VTF Veterinary Assistant Jessica Mathys said is an important thing to practice, particularly for the active-duty technicians. “You never know if you’re going to be deployed and be called upon to help suture up a wound on a military working dog,” Mathys said. “This helps keep their skills fresh.” Jones and Mathys agreed the clinic is also about community outreach. “The (Command and General Staff Officer Course) just started and the more information we put out there, the more they will know that we’re

here and available to them,” Jones said. “This is just one of those opportunities to get the word out.” “We open this up to everybody,” Mathys said. “It is nice, too, because a lot of times kids come in with their parents and their pets, but they don’t know what’s going on. When they bring their stuffed animal here with us, they can see that, yeah we took care of it, and they got it back and nothing bad happened.” Mathys said she has fun being part of the stuffed animal clinic each year. “It is really fun and exciting when the kids come in and they realize they get the whole medical chart and exam,” she said. “Then, when they pick them up, they’re so excited to get them back and the health certificate. We all get emotional and teary sometimes just because it is so fun the joy you see on the kids’ faces.” The VTF, 831 McClellan Ave., is open 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.

EFMP families meet at special playground Katie Peterson | Staff Writer

Since 1985, Army Community Service has been providing the services of the Exceptional Family Member Program to the families of Fort Leavenworth. Several of those families gathered for a meet and greet and play session Aug. 27 at the EFMP barrier-free playground west of the Post Theater. “We were just wanting to come out and meet some of our family members and kind of get to know what their needs are and get to know what their interests are so that we can better support them in the future,” said Jessica Brushwood, EFMP program manager. The barrier-free playground, which was completed in April 2012, is specially designed to accommodate children with special needs by having accessible ramps and equipment. It also includes a fence around its perimeter so that children cannot run off. The playground is just one of the many ways EFMP serves Fort Leavenworth families. “The Exceptional Family Member Program is a mandatory enrollment program that works with other military and civilian agencies to provide a comprehensive, coordinated, multiagency approach for community support, housing, medical, educational and personnel services to families with special needs,” said Erica Lee, EFMP systems navigator. “Fort Leavenworth is a unique installation. Every year

the population changes and the needs and requirements change as well … We want to remain flexible and meet the needs of the community the best we can.” EFMP has three pillars of services: medical, which is handled by Munson Army Health Center; ACS; and human resources, Brushwood said. “The ACS side, we really provide information for families, resources, and referrals to local resources, programs and providers,” Brushwood said. “We also do nonclinical case management, so we can work with families to reach their goals for either the family member or the whole family on the different resources and therapies in the area.” EFMP serves a variety of different special needs. Four-year-old Bryce Waddy has a speech delay, which in turn has caused some developmental delays, but his mother, Tamika Waddy, said EFMP has been helpful. “We came in with the (Individualized Education Program) and I met with (EFMP) before I met anybody from the schools, so they let me know the steps I needed to take and what I needed to do so there wasn’t a disruption in his services,” Waddy said. “(The meet and greet) gives you the opportunity to meet other people so you can help each other out… and get input from other families. We’re going to be here another year while my husband is deployed, so we need even more support.”

Waddy said she wants people to understand that EFMP isn’t just for extreme cases. “A lot of people think it has got to be the extreme to be in a program like this,” she said. “I think a lot of people miss out on the support they could have gotten because they think their kid has to be physically or mentally incapacitated, and they don’t.” EFMP serves physically disabled individuals, too. Thirteen-year-old Madalyn Granow, Patton Junior High School seventh-grader, has a genetic disorder called osteogenesis imperfecta or brittle bone disease, which leaves her bones weak. “It is manifested in her legs. Her legs are very weak,” said Madalyn’s mother, Jessica Granow. “She has had a lot of surgeries, and she has rods in her legs to strengthen them. She is a wheelchair user to help her get around.” Granow said they are always automatically enrolled in EFMP when they arrive at a new duty station, and even though they don’t actively need services all the time, she likes knowing they have that resource. “We’ve worked a lot with Munson and it is very comforting,” she said. “It is nice to have an advocate to help you navigate the confusing mess that is TRICARE.” For more information about EFMP, call 684-6250 or e-mail usarmy.leavenworth.medcommahc.mbx.efmp@mail.mil.

The next EFMP meet and greets are 10-11 a.m. Sept. 17 and Oct. 1 at the barrier-free playground.

Rare deer on post

FORT LEAVENWORTH LAMP

Battle Lab hosts exercise Mission Command Battle Lab

Submitted photo

This rare albino whitetail deer fawn was recently sighted on Fort Leavenworth. By order of the Garrison commander, the deer is not to be hunted or harassed.

The Mission Command Battle Lab participated in the Unified Challenge 19.2 Simulation Experiment from Aug. 5-23 at Fort Leavenworth. More than 100 role-players, analysts and support staff from across the military services and the Army Futures Command travelled to the MCBL to attend the event. The UC 19.2 Simulation Experiment assessed the task organization of the division reconnaissance element by simulating a corps conducting multi-domain operations against a credible, peer threat in a large-scale combat operations environment. Additionally, the event provided a conceptual testbed for future Army warfighting science and technology capabilities. The UC 19.2 Simulation Experiment was hosted by the Maneuver Battle Lab at Fort Benning, Ga., and was

distributed across the AFC experimentation community of practice using the Battle Lab Collaborative Simulation Environment distributed network, which saves the Army thousands of dollars in travel money by facilitating a real-time collaboration environment. Major commands from across the Army provided participants, including role-players from 7th Infantry Division, 10th Mountain Division, Training and Doctrine Command and Special Operations Command. The Air Force participated with operational planners at Fort Leavenworth and simulation operators at Hurlburt Field, Fla. Data collected during UC 19.2 will yield information to support echelons above brigade operational and organizational concepts, multi-domain operations concept development, and will drive experimentation efforts during AFC’s Fiscal Year 2020 Future Studies Program.

Army offering higher reenlistment bonuses Thomas Brading | Army News Service

WASHINGTON — Effective Sept. 9, soldiers willing to reenlist in some of the Army’s most indemand careers have the chance to receive up to $81,000 in lumpsum bonuses — the highest amount in more than five years, officials announced Aug. 27. In addition to critical fields, this latest announcement also offers a wide range of cash options for soldiers re-upping for longer commitments, or reclassifying into needed fields. “Reenlistment bonuses are reviewed continuously, and encourage long-term retention of soldiers going into or staying in critical skills,” said Sgt. Maj. Mark Thompson, the senior Army career counselor. The Army is investing heavily in its people, with hopes that they continue their investment in the Army, he said. The payouts are based on critical skills and selective retention. The Selective Retention Bonus program is designed to incen-

tivize soldiers to maintain their current military occupational specialty or reclassify into another MOS based on demands for the individual jobs. Understanding not every soldier will commit to longer terms, to sweeten the offer, last year the Army instituted the ability for soldiers to extend their service versus reenlisting. “We’re incentivizing the longer-term commitments without taking away the ability for soldiers to choose shorter-term commitments, too,” Thompson said. These efforts have directly impacted the “historically high retention rates” the Army is currently experiencing, he said. At least 82 percent of eligible soldiers have already reenlisted in fiscal year 2019. “The Army is experiencing an unprecedented success in the retention program due in large part from engaged leaders and professionally-developed career counselors,” Thompson said. “The Army continuously evalu-

ates the current enlisted strengths with future projections to establish precision incentives.” Although retention is at a historic high, the Army still needs to fill certain fields. The price tag actually creates a cost-effective solution to fill those positions internally, Thompson said. “Investing in soldiers with critical skills — such as cyber, intelligence, Special Forces, etc. — helps meet the retention needed to strengthen the Army’s ability to size, shape, and stabilize its force,” he said. Bonuses are categorized into tiers, one through 10, with the latter having the largest payout. Examples of top-tier fields include cyber and Special Forces. One of the smallest bonuses would occur with an individual in tier one, who may receive $1,000 for extending their service through reenlistment 12-23 months. On the other hand, a staff sergeant who wishes to move into, or is currently in, a tier 10 MOS, and extends his or her service by

at least five years may become eligible for the maximum payout. The Army will match increased commitment with increased bonus amounts. The intent of the SRB tier changes is to appropriately incentivize long-term reenlistments, Thompson said. For example, a cavalry scout sergeant on the old SRB message would get $7,800 for a six-year reenlistment; the new SRB Message will give the same soldier $9,900. Bonus amounts depend upon a soldier’s primary MOS, rank, time in service with skill identifiers, or reclassification into high-demand careers. However, individuals reclassifying will receive payment upon completion of training. Another example of bonuses includes location stabilization. Soldiers who reenlist for a location-specific bonus will be stabilized for a minimum of 24 months (12 months if reenlisting for a short tour area) unless otherwise directed. Investing in soldiers is noth-

ing new for the Army, Thompson said. “The chief of staff ’s No. 1 priority is people, and we are investing in that priority,” he said. This is the sixth bonus message this fiscal year, with rates in 85 skills increasing, 88 decreasing, and 671 not changing. Another example is infantrymen, who have six different SRB variations across four different skill levels, and five different reenlistment terms, which create hundreds of possible bonus variations across multiple MOSs. In addition, roughly 45 percent of the Army is eligible for a potential payday for many reenlisting soldiers. “The Army consistently reviews structure and projected strength requirements, and releases bonus messages as necessary,” Thompson said. Soldiers with questions pertaining to bonuses and eligibility requirements should contact their servicing career counselors.

Idle electronic devices leech energy Fort Leavenworth Frontier Heritage Communities

Vampire electrical loads — or phantom loads — waste energy. These silent thieves, also known as standby power, refer to devices that continue to draw power when supposedly “off.” Some electronics, such as entertainment center equipment, use electricity when they are off to support features including “instant-on,” remembering channel settings, recognizing the remote control, and telling time. To stop these electricity leaks, the equipment must be unplugged. Putting electronic devices on a power strip with an “on/off ” button and turning the devices off when not in use will save valuable energy. Many appliances continue to draw a small amount of power when they are switched off. These vampire loads occur with electronics such as video players, televisions, stereos and computers. Many vampire electronics are easy to identify, such as electric devices that require charging, have a light glowing when other lights are off in the home, have a digital read-out or clock display, such as microwave and coffee makers, or have a large “block” along the electric cord, such as laptop cords or phone chargers. Charging cords can continue to draw electricity even when the device is not connected.
