Post preps facilities for new fitness testing Katie Peterson | Staff Writer

In July 2018, the Army announced a new physical fitness test, the Army Combat Fitness Test, which would replace the Army Physical Fitness Test in October 2020. Units Armywide have already begun trial runs of the ACFT, and Fort Leavenworth is getting prepared with the renovation of three areas on post — the Harney Sports Complex Annex known as the “Bubble Gym,” the south hangar at Sherman Army Airfield and the east gym of Harney Sports Complex. “The ACFT requires more equipment and deliberate planning than is required with this current Army fitness test,” said Mike Whitecotton, director of Emergency Services, Operations, Plans and Security. The ACFT is made up of six events — strength deadlifts, standing power throws, hand-release push-ups, a sprint-dragcarry, leg tucks and a two-mile run. The test must be completed within 50 minutes, and passing or failing grades are based on the soldier’s job and unit requirements. Whitecotton said along with accommodating the required tasks, the renovations provide a space to perform the ACFT in the case of inclement weather. “In a normal unit, you can say the weather is bad, we’re going to

The annex will be closed through Oct. 17 for the renovation and equipment reset. The renovation will provide lanes for soldiers to train for the new Army Combat Fitness Test, which includes a sprint-drag-carry 25-meter lane run. Classes normally conducted in the annex will resume after the closure, and fitness equipment will still be available. Additional ACFT training areas will be added at Sherman Army Airfield and the east gym of Harney after the annex renovation.

under here and the reason why the senior commander wanted to provide these indoor facilities for everybody to do the testing.”

Currently, the Bubble Gym is closed through Oct. 17 while renovations are being made. When the Bubble Gym reopens,

Two officers join International Hall of Fame Katie Peterson | Staff Writer

Two new members were inducted into the Command and General Staff College International Hall of Fame in a ceremony Oct. 3 in the Lewis and Clark Center’s Eisenhower Auditorium. Their portraits now hang in the IHOF hallway alongside 283 other inductees representing 75 different nations. The newest inductees are Maj. Gen. Francois Ndiaye, chief of staff of the Senegalese Army, CGSC class of 1994; and retired Maj. Gen. Rodney Smart, former chief of Defence Staff of the Trinidad and Tobago Defence Force, CGSC class of 2009-01. “Each (IHOF member) became eligible for this recognition through years of distinguished service to their nation, rising to the highest positions of uniformed leadership within their home military,” said Brig. Gen. Stephen Maranian, CGSC deputy commandant and Army University provost. “International participation in the Command and General Staff Officer Course is an important and integral part of the Leavenworth experience. … Our international students share their diverse cultures and experiences throughout the

year making all of us better at our profession. Today’s inductees are proof of the quality of our international graduates.” Ndiaye joined the Senegalese Army as a cadet at the Meknes Royal Military Academy in Morocco in July 1980. Throughout his career he has held assignments as platoon commander, company commander and garrison commander for various companies, battalions and brigades. From May 2007 to July 2009, Ndiaye was the chief military liaison and planning officer of the United Nations Mission in the Central African Republic and Chad. From January 2012 to July 2014, he served as senior military adviser at the U.N. Office for Central Africa. In April 2016, he was promoted to brigadier general and appointed chief of staff of the Senegalese Army. Currently, he is serving as the inspector general of the Senegalese Armed Forces. Ndiaye is the 284th IHOF inductee and the third from his nation. “General Ndiaye is an excellent example of his nation’s commitment to cooperative military education and training,” Maranian said. “He has demonstrated his continued commitment to educa-

tion and learning as a Ph.D. candidate in the study of public law.” Ndiaye said he is proud of the education he received at CGSC. “Twenty-five years later, the world has changed. In fact, it is a whole new world with its complex strengths and challenges. The future will not be what we expected, but it still expects a lot of us,” Ndiaye

said. “Fortunately, the huge replica of the lamp is still outside as a beacon light of future understanding and sharing a common vision for long life friendships. “I want to wish good luck for a bright future to the CGSC class (2020) participants,” he said. “I’m not asking you to fix all the problems on this planet. I’m just asking you to do whatever you can for your

country and make the best of the best year of your life.” During his 36 years of service, Smart held various command and staff appointments at the strategic, operational and tactical levels. While a colonel, he served as the director of Defence Transformation and Integration Secretariat and was the Defence Force military liaison officer ad-

vising the Minister of National Security. Smart retired from the Trinidad and Tobago Defence Force in 2017 as the chief of Defence Staff, the nation’s senior military adviser to the president as well as the Minister of National Security on matters of national defense and security.

Master Fitness instructor offers ACFT tips Thomas Brading | Army News Service

FORT JACKSON, S.C. — The South Carolina sun — causing blistering temperatures to climb throughout the day — didn’t slow down Sgt. 1st Class Elizabeth Calderon from her workout. For her, being a Master Fitness Training instructor means that flipping tires or carrying ammo boxes in the heat is another day at the office. The former drill sergeant, no stranger to Fort Jackson’s long summers, was wearing a weighted tactical rucksack on her back Sept. 24 as she demonstrated modified squats outside of the U.S. Army Physical Fitness School. The purpose of her workout was to show proper ways soldiers can better prepare for the Army Combat Fitness Test — even with limited resources. Calderon was increasingly fatigued as the day wore on, yet pushed through and never compromised her form. During her time as a drill sergeant, Calderon said she spent countless hours in the gym, and repby-rep, sculpted her physique. For her, bodybuilding was an outlet to the highs and lows she faced while on drill sergeant duty, she said. “When you can physically move and train your body to accomplish things you never thought you could before,” she said, “you find yourself.” These days, however, although strength conditioning is still essential, she relies on functional workouts. These workouts, taught at the school, are wellrounded and cardio-intensive, designed to help soldiers balance strength with endurance. After all,

big muscles don’t necessarily mean physical fitness, at least according to Army standards. For the last 10 months, she’s been an instructor at the school, where she, along with the other instructors, educate and certify selected soldiers, from units around the Army, with everything related to the Army’s Physical Readiness Training program, including how to properly grade the ACFT. Although the instructors’ job requirements stretch far beyond the ACFT — including helping soldiers develop physical training concepts, tactics, techniques, training programs, and other aspects related to the PRT — lately, all eyes seem to focus on the upcoming fitness test, she said, which went into its second phase of implementation Oct. 1. During the second

phase, all soldiers will take the ACFT as a diagnostic and all Initial Military Training officers and enlisted will take the sixevent fitness test as a graduation requirement. The fitness classes aren’t just taught outside or in the gym. Many courses are also taught in traditional classrooms. There, instructors discuss topics such as injury prevention and nutrition, among others. “It all goes hand in hand,” Calderon said, referring to Holistic Health and Fitness, or H2F. “If your mind isn’t in it, your heart isn’t either — if that’s the case, you might just not have the motivation and do what you got to do in the gym. “I think you need to be centered in order to perform well,” she added, saying all aspects of H2F health are vital to success. Some soldiers, Calderon

said, are still uneasy with the ACFT’s test requirements, including events such as the leg-tuck. That’s where practice makes perfect, she said. “I think people fear what they don’t know,” she said, regarding the new fitness test. “Once they’re out there doing the movements, they’ll realize they can do it, too. I’m here to teach soldiers how to design a (fitness program) they can bring back to their unit.” Program design skills soldiers learn at the school will carry over into training for the ACFT, she said, and when certified soldiers return to their units, not only are they qualified to grade the ACFT, but they can supervise it, and set up the field for testing. “People may not realize it, but many of the ACFT exercises target muscles they work out every day,”

she said. “My job is to help teach soldiers the techniques used to perform those exercises correctly, and with proper form so they don’t get injured. Soldiers have been moving this way all their lives, they just need to perfect the movements and build a foundation.” Whether it’s in the office, or at the grocery store, “our muscles are designed for functionality,” she said. “We do dead-lifts when we pick up our groceries,” she said. “Or, bringing them to their car is like the farmer’s carry.” By using a certified MFT, soldiers will be one step closer to optimal physical readiness. However, according to Calderon, they still need to believe in themselves. “If a soldier is in the mindset they won’t pass the ACFT, they won’t,” she said. “It’s just like if you

start your day believing you’ll have a bad one — then you will.” In addition to her students, who occasionally reach out from time to time, Calderon has also developed an army of followers on social media. With more than 16,000 followers on Instagram, Calderon — known online as fatgurlliz — uses her social media presence to empower others by promoting physical fitness and body positivity. Although it’s her private account, she said she receives many messages about Army fitness. “My advice is if you have fun with (the ACFT), then you’re going to perform well — but you have to train the right way,” she said. “Train properly, and once you develop the endurance that you need, you’re going to be OK.”

public use. The other 35 percent of the equipment will be relocated into Harney east and two of the racquetball courts, according to Glenn Hewitt, Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation director. The SAAF hangar will be renovated Oct. 16-31. Harney east is expected to be renovated Oct. 28 through Nov. 4. The renovation of Harney east is contingent upon equipment being delivered Oct. 21, Whitecotton said. Renovations of each facility include installation of artificial turf panels and the necessary equipment for completing the ACFT. Each set of equipment includes 16 lanes, which will accommodate up to 64 soldiers at once. Five sets of equipment have been purchased. Two will be designated to Army University, one will be designated to the Special Troops Battalion, one will be designated to the 15th Military Police Brigade, and one will be designated to Combined Arms Center-Training. “(The panels) are modular and removable,” Whitecotton said. “We did that in the event

that we need to modify any of the facilities that we’re doing, and if we needed, in the case of the hangar, to evacuate because of flooding.” Once renovations are complete, the Bubble Gym and Harney east are on a first-come, first-serve basis for units wanting to complete the ACFT. The SAAF hangar is reserved primarily for Army University’s Pre-Command Course, Whitecotton said. “In the winter weather, they still have classes. They have a very compressed window to do the testing because the students are only here two weeks, so they can’t say the weather is bad, we’re going to do it another day,” Whitecottton said. Hewitt said the south hangar being dedicated to Army University will also help the traffic flow at Harney, the Bubble Gym and Gruber Fitness Center. “This will relieve pressure from Gruber, Harney and Bubble Gym so that there are more physical readiness opportunities for everybody,” Hewitt said. For more information, call 684-2190.

The renovation will provide lanes for soldiers to train for the new Army Combat Fitness Test, which includes a sprint-drag-carry 25meter lane run. Classes normally conducted in the annex will resume after the closure, and fitness equipment will still be available. An additional ACFT training area will be added at Sherman Army Airfield after the annex renovation.

International Hall of Fame

International Hall of Fame inductee Maj. Gen. Francois Ndiaye, chief of staff of the Senegalese Army, receives a gift from Michael Hockley, chairman of the board of the Command and General Staff College Foundation, during his IHOF induction ceremony Oct. 3 at the Lewis and Clark Center. Ndiaye is a 1994 graduate of CGSC. Retired Maj. Gen. Rodney Smart, former chief of Defence Staff of the Trinidad and Tobago Defence Force, was also inducted into the CGSC IHOF during the ceremony. Smart is a 2009-01 graduate of CGSC.

as chief executive officer of the Office of Disaster Preparedness and Management. He previously served as CEO of ODPM from 2010 to 2011. Smart is the 285th IHOF inductee and the sixth from his nation. “We are proud of (Smart’s) service and accomplishments and the role he has taken in the strong hemispheric ties we enjoy between our two countries,” Maranian said. Smart said he is the officer he is today because of CGSC. “I wish to say thank you for the wonderful work that you are doing here at CGSC in the leadership development of our armed forces and the peace and stability throughout the world,” Smart said. “To you students of this wonderful

college, I wish to congratulate you on your accomplishments thus far. Appreciate where you are on your journey even if it is not where you would like to be at this time. For every single season has its purpose. … You are certainly on course to achieve greater things. Know that this year is going to sharpen your strategic and critical thinking skills as well as your ability to implement. “I want to assure you that while the education you receive here is going to prepare you for excellence at warfighting, you are simultaneously receiving an education that has multiple applications,” he said. “You are therefore being developed with a wide range of competencies … which will enable you to

(continued from Page A1)

successfully lead any undertaking that you will decide to accomplish.” Smart said CGSC is a critical point in an officer’s career and personal development. “As we sit on the cusp of the third decade of the 21st century, know that you are not here by chance, but you belong to a generation of officers who have been selected by some higher power to solve the problems that my generation of officers and the ones before me could not solve,” Smart said. “Know that the solutions are there and all those solutions are doing is waiting for one of you here to come and collect because you have the ability to go beyond where we could not go.” During their induction, the honorees were pre-

sented with a Life Constituent Certificate from Maranian and an eagle statuette from the CGSC Foundation. The IHOF was established in 1973 by CGSC, the Kansas City Chapter of the Military Order of World Wars, and the thenCGSC Alumni Association, now the CGSC Foundation. Induction into the IHOF Is for international graduates of the Command and General Staff Officer Course who have attained one of the highest positions of military importance in their country’s armed forces through military merit. The 285 current inductees are out of more than 8,300 international CGSOC graduates from 165 countries since 1894.

Cheerleading squad supports Patton teams Katie Peterson | Staff Writer

Editor’s Note: This is the fourth and final article in the series about Patton Junior High School fall sports. There’s football. There’s volleyball. There’s cross-country. But what about the team that’s on the sidelines cheering these teams on and spreading school spirit? It’s none other than the Patton Junior High School cheerleading squad. “It is good sportsmanship. They cheer on the boys whether they win or lose,” said Coach Megan Byrd. “That’s a big sign of respect for each other.” “It shows the other teams, we’re here and we’re supporting you,” added Coach Katie Geisler. “Our biggest thing, in football, when a player is down, we take a knee with (the team). It shows them the respect. If they’re taken off the field, (the cheerleaders) are clapping and cheering them on.” Although the squad of 21 mainly cheers for football in the fall and basketball in the spring because of the way scheduling falls with other sporting events, Byrd said the cheerleaders still support other sports. “They do a lot of pep rallies,” she said. Just like other sports, every day after school, the cheerleaders are conditioning and running laps to keep their bodies in shape before practicing cheers and stunts. “They use different muscles,” Geisler said. “When Calvin (Lex, Patton ninth-grader) has Allison (Geisler, Patton eighth-grader) up in the air, Calvin is using all his arm muscles and she is using all of her leg muscles at the same time, so by the end of the night, they’re sore.” Byrd said the cheerleaders are constantly “on” during the games, too. “They are standing up the whole entire game to where the football team, if they aren’t in, they can sit,” Byrd said. “(The cheerleaders) can’t do that.” Physical stamina and en-

durance are not the only things the cheerleaders are learning. “They have to learn to be in control of themselves, and it is a responsibility,” Byrd said. “They have to have their bloomers, their shoes, their socks, bows and if they don’t have any part of the uniform, they don’t cheer. Geisler said the cheerleaders are also learning about trust. “When the girls and the boys are stunting, they have to have that trust in ‘He’s not going to drop me,’” Geisler said. Lex, team captain and yell leader, said the bond of trust is one of the things he has learned most from cheerleading, but also organization and teamwork. “We have to make sure everyone is in sync with each other,” Lex said, “and you really do form a bond of trust with everyone. … I like being part of this group.” Patton eighth-grader Karly Byrd said cheerleading has brought her out of her shell. “It gives me the independence to be myself instead of following in someone else’s shadow,” Byrd said. “I’m very shy, so this gives me a time to let myself be who I actually am instead of the shy person.” Allison Geisler, a former gymnast, said cheerleading has taught her how to be on a team. “I’m more of an independent person. I like to do things myself,” Allison Geisler said. “(Cheerleading) has been teaching me how to work as a team because teamwork is the dream work. “(Cheerleading) is pretty fun,” she said. “It has a lot of movement involved, and it is nice to go and support my school at sporting events.” So, whether the Patton Tigers are “so cool” or it is time to play “D-E-F-E-N-S-E,” the Patton cheerleading squad will be there showing their support.

CARL ‘Fantober’ features weekly themes Katie Peterson | Staff Writer

Elsa, Belle, Snow White, Prince Charming and more visited the Combined Arms Research Library for the prince and princessthemed storytime Oct. 2. The special storytime was the kick-off event for Fantober. The month-long celebration is an Armywide initiative across Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation libraries, said Nora Walker, CARL library technician. “(Fantober) is a new initiative for this year, and it is essentially taking the month of October to celebrate different fandoms,” Walker said. “Each library had the creativity to plan whatever they want and celebrate whatever fandoms fit their community or fit their staff to put on a good program. “It is a new way to get excited about reading and get people into the library,” she said. “In general, I find that anything related to current, relevant pop culture, people tend to get excited about that and come and join in whatever activity it is that we’re hosting.” Dozens of children and their parents listened to three stories, including “The Princess and the Pig” by Jonathan Emmett and Poly Bernatene, “Not All Princesses Dress in Pink” by Jane Yolen and Heidi E. Y. Stemple, read by “Princess” Katy Touysinhthiphonexay, CARL acquisitions library technician, and “The Knight and the Dragon” by Tomie dePaola, ready by Walker. The children also learned how to curtsy like a princess and bow like a prince, how to give a royal wave and how to do a royal walk, before ending with a craft creating swords and princess wands of their

Children make faces to correspond with Community Library Technician Nora Walker’s reading of “The Knight and the Dragon” by Tomie DePaola during preschool storytime Oct. 2 at the Combined Arms Research Library. Librarians also read “Not All Princesses Dress in Pink” by Jane Yolen and Heidi Stemple and “The Princess and the Pig” by Jonathan Emmett and Poly Bernatene during the themed storytime. Preschool storytimes in October have a “FANtober” theme, encouraging children to dress in related costumes and accessories, listen to related stories and make a themed craft. The theme Oct. 2 was princesses and princes, and it was pirates Oct. 9. Storytime is at 9:30 a.m. Wednesdays; upcoming themes are superheroes Oct. 16 and wizards Oct. 23. Children are invited to trick or treat at the library in costume Oct. 31.

own to take home. Parents said they loved the idea of having a themed storytime. “It is just another way to get them excited about

books,” said Heather Price, mother of 2-year-old Maddie. “It gives them another chance to interact, and they (Maddie and their neighbor, 2-year-old Juliett

Berg) are always looking for an opportunity to dress up.” Cassie Souza, mother of 4-year-old Emma, said having themed storytime

helps enhance the experience. “For reading alone, but also for imagination because it just makes kids interact with the books,” Souza said. Victoria Willis, mother of 1-year-old George, said she enjoyed seeing so many children attend. “(Storytime) is always well attended, but I think because it is themed they’ve been more excited to come and encouraged their parents to bring them,” Willis said. “We always read stories to the kids in the evening because it is quiet time, but it is another time in the day where we can guarantee that they are reading and looking at books. “If (storytime) wasn’t

on, I probably wouldn’t be getting into the library every week with the children,” she said, “so it is a way of getting them in the library to look for books.” Storytime is at 9:30 a.m. Wednesdays at the library. Oct. 16 dress like superheroes, Oct. 23 dress like wizards, and Oct. 31 dress in Halloween costumes for trick-or-treat storytime. Other upcoming Fantober events include the Pages-To-Screen Movie Club viewing of “Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald” for ages 10 and up from 2-4:30 p.m. Oct. 18 and a Star Wars paint day for ages 3-5 at 9:30 a.m. Oct. 30.

Civil War veteran became frontier scoundrel Heidi Crabtree | Special to the Fort Leavenworth Lamp

Among the early commanders in the 10th U.S. Cavalry was a man who is forgotten now, but in his day was rather infamous both on Fort Leavenworth and in the city. A dashing daredevil by day, a dastardly dude by night, Brevet Maj. George W. Graham could charm his way out of almost anything until his luck ran out. Raised in New York, Graham served during the Civil War with several regiments, finishing the war as a captain in the North Carolina Union Volunteers, leading southern Unionists on raids

Out on a Limb

FOOTNOTES IN FORT’S HISTORY in eastern North Carolina. Credited with burning the bridge at Goldsborough, the young man made a name for himself. Though he was involved in less valorous events, he was honorably discharged in June 1865. His application for a commission in the Regular Army was approved, and he was assigned to the newly formed 10th Cavalry as a lieutenant. After recruiting duties in Leavenworth and Kansas

T.H. Limb

City, he was made a captain and given Company I. Company I spent much of its time near Fort Hays guarding the railroad terminus. This is where Graham met Buffalo Bill Cody, and Cody wrote about Graham in his autobiography. Curiously, the southern Unionists that Graham commanded in the Civil War were derogatorily known as “Buffaloes” by other North Carolinians, giving food for thought as to whether Graham had a silent giggle at again leading what were now being called Buffalo Soldiers. In 1868, Company I was at Fort Wallace, where scouting along the Smoky Hill and escort duties were common. In September, Graham and his men were surprised by a large number of Cheyenne along Sand Creek in Colorado Territory, not far from the earlier Sand Creek Massacre. He was saved from death by his trusty lieutenant, Myron Amick, and earned a brevet. Immediately afterward, his company and Louis Carpenter’s Company H were called to help in what would become known as the Battle of Beecher Island. Returning from Washington in 1869 with his new rank, Graham stopped at the photo studios of E. E. Henry on Delaware Street in Leavenworth to have his photograph made. Graham had earned a reputation for being a man who “can’t be killed.” Escorting Maj. Eugene Carr through part of Kansas, Graham was ambushed along a trail and allegedly came out unscathed, with three shots passing

through his clothing and hat. His reputation for gambling and hell raising didn’t sit well with another captain, George A. Armes, who made every other officer’s business his own. Armes proffered charges against Graham for riding through Fort Hays with a “shady lady,” and for selling Army horses. The courtmartial was set for summer of 1870 at Fort Leavenworth. Graham wasn’t going to act like a good boy during his time in Leavenworth. He lived at the Planter’s Hotel and was arrested several times by the city police for riding too fast through the streets, cavorting with a “lewd and lascivious woman,” and smacking a newspaper editor over the head with his goldtipped walking stick because the man wrote insulting things about him. The lewd woman was already well-known in Leavenworth for being a troublemaker herself. Graham also had, according to articles, a “blonde actress” gal pal who rode through the streets of Leavenworth with him. Another woman who had a legitimate claim to the tall, popular officer was his wife. Josephine

Jones Graham claimed that they were married in North Carolina and that he’d abandoned her after taking her to New York City. Josie wrote several letters to Generals Winfield Hancock and Phillip Sheridan pleading for help. Col. Benjamin Grierson summoned Graham about it, and Graham denied that he was married, and, despite Josie having signed letters by the chaplain who had married them in 1863, he escaped court-martial for non-support of a wife. His 1870 court-martial did not go as well. Receipts and proof of ownership on the horses Graham allegedly sold were provided. Officers giving contradicting testimony as to whether the woman riding through Fort Hays was a shady woman or the sutler’s wife, as Graham insisted, didn’t help. In mid-August 1870 at Fort Leavenworth once-Brevet Maj. George W. Graham became a private citizen after being cashiered from the Army at the parade field. He would remain in Leavenworth for a time, racing his locally well-known team of grey horses. Later he would get himself into trouble in Utah, go to prison on Colorado for an attempted paymaster robbery and have several obituaries printed yet survive each. In 1875, the “man who can’t be killed” was gunned down by a mob in a mining dispute in Rosita, Colo., and his body thrown into an unnamed gulch. Nothing remains except for a tombstone with his name on it in North Carolina at the grave of an old “Buffaloe” who admired his commander so much he unwittingly gave Graham the tombstone he would never otherwise have.

Reduce moisture to prevent mold, mildew Fort Leavenworth Frontier Heritage Communities

With the rainy fall season, so too comes mold and mildew. Mold is part of the natural environment. Outside, mold acts to break down dead organic materials such as fallen leaves. Indoors, mold forms when mold spores attach themselves to damp surfaces. The key to controlling mold is controlling moisture. There are many different types of mold, but none of them will form without the presence of moisture. Fort Leavenworth Frontier Heritage Communities offers the following tips to help minimize mold growth in homes: n Mold and mildew develop when the materials in a home become moist or wet because of water or condensation. Try to keep bathrooms and kitchens as dry as possible. n Be sure to replace heating, ventilation and cooling system

filters monthly. Filters can be obtained from the FLFHC Maintenance Department at 800 W. Warehouse Road. n Do not cover HVAC ducts. n Open windows — proper ventilation can reduce mold and mildew growth. n Close all windows when it is rainy or damp. n Use the bathroom fan when bathing or showering. n Do not overfill closets or storage areas — ventilation is important in these areas and improper air ventilation can cause mold and mildew to grow. n Use exhaust fans when cooking. n To remove mildew, use a general household cleaner on the area, allow it to sit for a couple of minutes, then thoroughly wipe and dry. Mildew can also be caused by water leaks, improperly sealed windows or the malfunction of a home’s ventilation system. If any of these issues are occurring,
