Runners gather to honor the fallen Katie Peterson | Staff Writer

On May 6, 2007, while serving during Operation Enduring Freedom, Col. James Harrison Jr., 47th commandant of the U.S. Disciplinary Barracks, and Master Sgt. Wilberto Sabalu Jr., former USDB corrections specialist, were killed at Pol-e-Charki, Afghanistan, of wounds suffered from small-arms fire. On Nov. 1, 2007, and Sept. 28, 2010, respectively, the Fort Leavenworth community remembered them by naming streets in their honor. On Sept. 14, they were remembered again when retired Army Reserve Maj. John Bauer and his wife, Judy Bauer, former Department of the Army civilian, ran for them during the Army Community Service Survivor Outreach Services’ ninth annual Run/Walk for the Fallen, which began and ended outside the Resiliency Center. John Bauer, who was Sabalu’s company commander at the USDB, said events that remember fallen veterans are important. “It is a way of honoring them,” he said. “We’re doing something that they can’t do anymore.” Judy Bauer, who ran for family-friend Harrison, agreed. “Everybody says that you die twice,” she said. “Once when you’re gone, and then when you’re not remembered. So to be able to honor them and their sacrifice, I think it is extremely important because if not you just kind of go to the wayside.” Harrison and Sabalu were just two of hundreds of service members who were remembered during the event as nearly 1,000 people from the Fort Leavenworth and Leavenworth communities participated, running for fallen co-workers, friends and family members. “We have 805 families that are assigned to Survivor Outreach Services,” said Christina Long, SOS program manager. “This is a chance for them to come and enjoy each other’s company and remember their fallen hero.” Before the run began, Garrison Commander Col. Harry Hung addressed the crowd. “September is a special month. Eighteen years ago, on Sept. 11, we bore witness to another day of infamy in American history when evil and perverse forces chose to strike at the heart of America,” Hung said. “While lives and buildings were lost, the American spirit and resolve did not shrivel and dissolve. We became stronger as a community and as a nation. The calling to serve and protect our way of life became apparent as men and women chose to sign up and wear our military uniform.” Maj. Jason Wolfe, Operations Group Delta, Mission Command Training Program, ran for such an individual — former National Football League Arizona Cardinals safety Cpl. Patrick Tillman. Tillman was deployed with the 75th Ranger Regiment in support of Operation Enduring Freedom when he was killed on April 22, 2004, during a patrol

The Jefferson family ran to remember two soldiers Anthony served with in 2015-16 at Fort Campbell, Ky., as well as in memory of Anthony’s grandfather.

vehicle attack near Spera, Afghanistan. “Next to 9-11, (Tillman) was the primary reason for me going into the Army,” Wolfe said. “He left the NFL to go into the Rangers after 9-11. That he turned down a multi-milliondollar contract to serve his country is inspiring. It just goes to show the sacrifices people make for our country.” Hung said the event is also about military families.

“The last Sunday in September is also recognized as Gold Star Mother’s and Family’s Day. It is a day to recognize the strength and sacrifices of our military families,” Hung said. “You have given so much year after year, and I am privileged to honor you and the sacrifices of your loved ones. You have a special place in our hearts and in this community; you will always be part of the Fort Leavenworth family.”

Army reminds all to be prepared From Ready Army releases

September is National Preparedness Month and Ready Army, the Army’s proactive community awareness campaign, is underway. Ready Army empowers soldiers, their families and Army civilians to prepare for all emergencies. Through outreach and education, Ready Army calls the Army community to action and aims to create a culture of preparedness that will save lives and strengthen the nation. There are a range of natural and man-made hazards that could affect you, and emergencies often leave little or no time to react. When emergencies occur, military and civilian organizations respond, but it takes time to mobilize, and they focus on the most critical needs first. Emergency preparedness is everyone’s responsibility. Ready Army provides the toolkit and standardized checklists for emergency preparedness at home and abroad. When soldiers, their families and Army civilians know what to do when an emergency strikes, it saves time, property and — most importantly — lives. Preparedness increases the resilience of the Army and supports overall installation and force readiness. It mitigates the effects of an emergency, aids recovery, and is a time and resource multiplier for emergency first responders and medical first receivers. Ultimately, Ready Army supports soldiers and families and strengthens the nation. Preparing for tomorrow’s hazards is a readiness issue; readiness allows soldiers to stay properly focused on their mission. Four steps can help you and your family prepare for all hazards: Be Informed. Make a Plan. Build a Kit. Get Involved. Be Informed — Emergencies can arise from weather and other natural hazards, industrial and transportation accidents, disease epidemics and terrorist acts. Anticipate the emergencies most likely to affect you and your family in your geographical location. Knowing what to do can make all the difference when seconds count.

In many cases, the same protective alternatives apply: temporarily shelter-in-place, evacuate, or move to a civilian shelter or designated safe haven. Anticipate possible emergencies and know the appropriate response measures and local evacuation routes. Learn about related procedures, including mass warning and notification and the Army Disaster Personnel Accountability and Assessment System. Make a Plan — Make and practice your family emergency plan. You and your family members may not be together when an emergency strikes. Planning ahead for various emergencies will improve your chances of keeping in touch, staying safe and quickly reuniting. Your family emergency plan and emergency kits will be useful regardless of the hazard. Creating an emergency plan is a family activity. Open a family dialogue about preparedness and include all members in your preparedness planning. Consider special needs and pets. If you require medical assistance or special transportation for your family or pets, contact your local emergency manager before an emergency for advice. Choose a contact person living elsewhere whom you and your family can contact if an emergency strikes when you are separated. Think about all the places you and your family may be throughout the day, such as home, office, school or in transit. Establish plans for evacuation and meeting places. Discuss when to use your plans. Build a Kit — Assemble a collection of first aid supplies, food, water, medicines and important papers to sustain you and your family until a crisis passes. Consider the unique needs of your family and pets, then assemble emergency supply kits in your home, car and workplace. An emergency kit should include enough supplies to meet your family’s essential needs for at least three days. Get Involved — Prepared people build stronger communities. In an emergency, you may be in a position to provide help to

not only your family, but to those in your community. Learn how to receive training, how to volunteer, and how to share your knowledge and skills with others. Q: What items should I put in my emergency kit? A: For an emergency kit, collect enough supplies to last for at least three days. Keep a kit prepared at home, and consider also having kits in your car and at work and a portable version in your home ready to take with you. These kits will enable you and your family to respond to an emergency more quickly, whether you have to shelter-inplace or evacuate. Also consider whether your area is likely to face a specific threat, and purchase items accordingly. For a list of suggested items, download the Emergency Kit Fact Sheet at https://www.ready.gov/. Q: What is a family emergency plan? How do I make one? A: Your family should have a plan for who you will call and where you will go if there is an emergency. When creating a family emergency plan, consider the range of potential emergencies and all the places you and your family might be. Talk to your children about what will happen if they are in school at the time of the emergency, and make sure they understand where you intend to be.

Army families, in particular, need to know what to do if an emergency occurs, particularly when their soldier is deployed. In case you can’t reach each other directly by phone or e-mail, have an out-of-state friend or relative you can both contact to leave word that you’re OK and learn the Army Disaster Personnel Accountability and Assessment System to ensure you are ready to report your status. Discuss your plan with the family and set up practice evacuations or shelter-in-place drills to ensure everyone knows what to do and where to go in the event of an emergency. Recommended information for a family emergency plan can be found at https://www.ready.gov/military. Q: I have pets. How can I prepare for them in an emergency? A: When you and your family consider plans and provisions for emergencies, be sure to take your pets and other animals into account. Creatures that rely on us in the best of times can’t help themselves when disaster strikes. Advance planning could prevent tragedy, worry and the risks you or others might take to affect a rescue. Know in advance how you will handle your pets if you need to evacuate. Your emergency supply kit should also contain provisions for pets, including food and

water, a strong leash, a carrier and veterinary records. Make sure your pets’ identification tags are up to date and secured on their collars, and consider microchipping your pets. If you have advance warning of an emergency, add a tag with your evacuation information. Q: What does shelter-in-place mean? A: Sheltering-in-place means to take temporary protection in a structure or vehicle that is not certified, insured or staffed for emergency conditions. Installation procedures designate which office or party will order personnel to shelter-in-place and for how long the order stays in effect. Preparing to shelter-in-place involves having an emergency kit, being able to turn off heating and ventilation systems quickly and identifying potential interior spaces for sheltering-in-place. Notification of an emergency may be through a voice announcing system, announcements through cellular phones or e-mail, or an Emergency Alert System broadcast over radio or television. The best way to be prepared for all emergencies is to play it smart. Preparing for emergencies doesn’t take a lot of time or effort, but it does bring peace of mind.

Retired diplomat selected for CGSC post CGSC Foundation release

The Command and General Staff College Foundation and DACOR (Diplomatic and Consular Officers, Retired) have announced the selection of retired Ambassador Katherine Canavan as the distinguished visiting professor of diplomacy for the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College class of 2020. Canavan served with distinction as a Foreign Service officer in the U.S. State Department more than 35 years. She retired in November 2011, with the rank of career minister, the second highest in the Foreign Service. She served as chief of mission in the Republic of Botswana and the Kingdom of Lesotho, as the director of the Foreign Institute,

and as the civilian deputy to the commander of U.S. European Command. She is a graduate of the National War College and has received numerous awards, including the Distinguished Civilian Service Award and the Presidential Meritorious Service Award. Canavan currently serves at the Curtis E. LeMay Center for Doctrine Development and Education at Maxwell Air Force Base, Ala., providing State Department and interagency insights and expertise to classes for general officers and senior executive civilians. She also works independently supporting various military exercises involving interaction with the State Department, U.S. embassies, the interagency, international organi-

zations and non-governmental organizations. “The CGSC Foundation’s partnership with DACOR in Washington, D.C., to bring senior Foreign Service officers here, is one of the best programs we offer to enhance the educational experience for our community,” said Rod Cox, CGSC Foundation president and CEO. “Not only do these very accomplished practitioners share their expertise with CGSC students and faculty, they also allow us the opportunity to enhance the foreign policy curriculum and increase public awareness at area universities and high schools. During their visits here they share their knowledge of country team leadership, foreign policy expertise, and regional expertise with CGSC

students, and also discuss foreign policy considerations and career opportunities in the Foreign Service with university and civic groups throughout the Kansas City area.” Cox said the foundation is working to finalize the schedule, and that Canavan’s first visit to CGSC will likely be in early December. The CGSC Foundation’s DACOR distinguished visiting professor of diplomacy is a program designed to bring recently retired senior national security officials to Fort Leavenworth to enhance the curriculum at CGSC and allow for interaction with area universities and the general populace. The program is part of the CGSC Foundation’s Distinguished Speaker Series and is the

result of a partnership with DACOR. The program is sponsored locally by the Lawrence D. Starr Center for Peace and Justice at the University of Saint Mary, Park University and the University of Kansas. Established in 1952, DACOR is a private non-profit membership-based organization for foreign affairs professionals, fostering open, informed, and non-partisan dialogue about current foreign policy issues, and supporting the Foreign Service community through fellowship and outreach.

Fort’s drinking water comes from city Katie Peterson | Staff Writer

Prudence Siebert

Moriah Reaves, fourth-grader at Bradley Elementary School, gets a drink from the water fountain Sept. 17 at Normandy Field. Moriah was at the sports complex to watch her brother, Davon Slaughter, play on the Patton Junior High School football team. Fort Leavenworth gets its water via the city of Leavenworth’s Leavenworth Waterworks.

“Fort Leavenworth water is safe to drink,” said Dale Cleland, Directorate of Public Works Environmental Division chief. According to a recent Military Times article, Fort Leavenworth is on a list of military bases with drinking water contaminated by per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, which are man-made chemicals used in many household items, as well as fire-fighting foams used at military airfields. “Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, sits at the top of the Army’s list, with 10 different types of PFAS totaling 4,022 parts per trillion,” according to the article. The sample was taken from one of five underground wells near Sherman Army Airfield. Though the well in question is contaminated, it is not the source of post’s drinking water and has not been used since 2016. Additionally, none of the five wells have been the source of post’s drinking water since January 2018, Cleland said. Fort Leavenworth gets its drinking water from the city of Leavenworth’s water

plant, which has never detected any PFAS. “We will not be using our drinking water wells again until we have put an appropriate filtration system on them,” Cleland said. Fort Leavenworth’s drinking water has been privatized with American Water since 2003, said Brett Wobker, DPW Energy Division chief. “No additional treatment is done on the water provided from the city of Leavenworth,” Wobker said. “The water is delivered to the installation from a connection with the city and then dispersed through the installation’s water distribution system — a network of underground pipes.” American Water owns the pipes that distribute the water, the tanks where the water is stored and the sewer lines that take the used water back off post, Cleland said. For more information, call Cleland at 684-8977 or e-mail dale.d.cleland.civ @mail.mil. The city’s water quality report is available at http://www.lvnwater.com/ 19wqr.pdf.

Parents as Teachers playgroup starts on post Katie Peterson | Staff Writer

Dolls, coloring stations, books, puzzles and blocks were just some of the toys children played with during the Fort Leavenworth and Unified School District 207 Parents as Teachers playgroup Sept. 16 at the USD 207 annex. The Parents as Teachers program currently has playgroups in Leavenworth,but wanted to offer another option for post participants. “Playgroups offer the opportunity to meet with other parents/caregivers, develop friendships, make connections and share parenting experiences and ideas,” said Kicia Wagner, Parents as Teachers coordinator. “Playgroups also give children an opportunity to play with other children and develop and practice their social skills. “By offering an additional playgroup on post, we have increased these opportunities for military families residing in our community,” she said, “and our goal is to bring awareness of Parents as Teachers on post. By offering this playgroup, we hope to connect with more military families and provide them with information, support and encouragement during the early years of their children’s lives.” The Parents as Teachers program, which is funded by the Kansas State Department of Education, USD 453 and USD 207, is targeted for families with children from birth to kindergarten. The free program matches parents with trained educators who will make regular home visits and create an individualized plan to support parents as their children grow and develop. “Families are visited once or twice a month, and parent educators offer research-based insight on early brain development as well as offer tools and advice for parents about what to expect during each stage of development,” Wagner said. “The goal is to provide parents with child development knowledge, parenting support and increase children’s school readiness.” Chelsea Toft, mother of 16month-old Lainey Toft, said the program has been a helpful resource. “They’ll give us little sheets that talk about social and emotional development and all the

skills that they should be practicing depending on their age,” Toft said. “They’ll also offer resources if the parents are having any concerns or issues. For instance, when she was really little, and I was adjusting to being a firsttime mom and staying at home, to work on patience (the parent educator) gave me some meditation information to try. “We’ve loved being a part of (the program), and it has definitely helped me connect in different ways,” she said. “I have an early childhood background, but it is amazing what I don’t remember. I thought I knew it all, but I don’t. I’m definitely still learning, especially since she is my own.” Arin Principe, mother of 3year-old Mila Principe, said she highly recommends the program. “One of the most important jobs in life is being a parent, but no one teaches you how to be a parent, so they just make sure to check up on your well-being, and they focus on the parents’ needs and the child’s needs in order to help you be a better parent,” Principe said. “Also, along with the playgroups they have

monthly group connections, which helps foster a sense of community within the playgroup family.” Katelyn Solich, mother of 13month-old Elyse Solich, said she only recently registered for the program Sept. 13, but had high hopes for it after it was recommended to her by a friend. “I’m just excited about having somebody come in and really hone in on her skills and be able to take time to watch her continue to develop,” Solich said. “When I heard about it from my friend, I thought it was a really neat program, and it is such a good help, especially for people that are constantly moving.” All families in the Leavenworth and Fort Leavenworth School Districts with children prenatal to 48 months are eligible to enroll in the program. The Parents as Teachers playgroup is open to families with children 2 months to 3 years old who are already enrolled in the program. The playgroup meets from 910:30 a.m. on Mondays. For more information, call (913) 684-1450 or e-mail Wagner at kicia.wagner@lvpioneers.org.

Patton Junior High fields 2 football teams

Katie Peterson | Staff Writer

Editor’s note: This is the first in a series of articles about Patton Junior High School fall sports.

Thirty-six pairs of cleats hit the newly installed artificial turf of Normandy Field as Patton Junior High School’s White and Blue football teams arrived for their first home game Sept. 17 against Warren Middle School. The second game of the season, following their match-up against Tonganoxie Middle School Sept. 10, which resulted in losses for both the White and the Blue teams, had been anticipated since their first practice Aug. 19. “When we go away we take the respect, we take the win, and we continue to work and improve,” said Patton eighth-grader Josh Grisi, Blue Team quarterback and captain. “When they come to our house, I am a captain, so I see it as my house. I don’t like the idea of another team coming in and taking a win and taking our respect. It is a dog fight every single play, especially since this is a brand-new field, this is going to go down as a historical day, and I won’t have another team coming in and telling me what to do and bossing me around. “We represent the military when we’re out there,” he said. “I think that is important that we understand what we’re playing for and what we’re fighting for and who we’re representing.” The teams are under the direction of four coaches — Head Coach Dave Parrish, Defensive Coaches Jim Kozminski and Adam Acred, and Offensive Coach Patrick Hernandez. The White Team, formerly the seventh-grade team, is made up of 21 players, and the Blue Team, formerly the eighth-grade team, is made up of 15 players. “We were able to divide the kids up based on their skill level, experience and size, so the White being the less experienced team and the Blue being the more experienced team,” Kozminski said. “The reason why we decided to go this way is just based off the number of participants. … We had a couple of first-time players that their experience and skill level need to be developed, so we put them on more of the developmental team and vice versa.” Although the teams are separated based on skill, Kozminski said every practice begins with the fundamentals. “A lot of them, this is their first time playing 11 on 11 tackle football, so we just have brilliance in the fundamentals,” Kozminski said. “Every practice we go over basic formations, three-point stances, where you’re going to be out on the football field and allow them to grasp that before we start getting into the more complex parts of foot-

ball, which they’ll be introduced more to in high school. “Right now, we’re just trying to foster a love of the game,” he said. “If you love the game, you’re going to continue with it whether you’re coaching, playing or whatever it may be, but if you don’t have that at the beginning, sometimes you get lost in transition, especially the newer kids.” With the fundamentals estab-

lished, it is the job of each of the coaches to teach the players the specifics of offense and defense. Kozminkski said as a defensive coach, he puts emphasis on awareness. “Awareness of what your job is,” he said. “Football is the ultimate team sport, but with that being said, every individual has a job and in defense, we focus on not being the hero, not going and

being the superstar, but just knowing your job and doing your job to the best of your ability.” Acred said that awareness comes from conditioning an understanding of the rules. “We have three different stances in defense — three-point stance, four-point stance, twopoint stance — so we teach them how to do that, how to not commit penalties in defense, how to not grab, how to not jump offsides, all that good stuff,” Acred said. “Also, watch the ball. Don’t listen to the quarterback. You don’t move until the ball moves. …We try to instill a little discipline in them. On the offensive side, Hernandez said he focuses on putting the right players in the various positions. “We’re looking not just for the best, but the ones that are actually able to listen to our guidance and apply it not only to practice, but that when the game comes around, we can see that they’re able to hold the concepts and understand what we’re trying to accomplish,” Hernandez said. “We try not to focus on wins and losses, because any team sport you want to win obviously, but just progression, just getting them better not just as football players but as kids because a lot of them are impressionable 12and 13-year-olds.” While several of the players participate in other sports including basketball, track and soccer, Grisi and Patton seventh-grader Willie Nash, White Team quarterback, agreed that football is their favorite. “There is just so much athletic talent overall in football,” Grisi said. “It is not just someone who is fast or someone who is big. There is always a position for

someone. It is very including and just something I’ve always been into.” “All of these guys out here and one girl, you make a brotherhood in football,” Nash said. Players also said they had high hopes as the season continues, particularly Patton seventhgrader Elissa Jasso, White Team left guard. “I hope that I learn how to be more confident in myself,” Jasso said. “I’m trying to see if I can become a little bit stronger and try out things that people normally say girls shouldn’t be doing.” They can teach the fundamentals, they can teach the defensive strategies and the offensive strategies, but the coaches agreed that the most important thing the players can learn from football is teamwork. “We push extracurriculars, but we also push community, we push teamwork and we push leadership,” Acred said. “Football is that sense of teamwork. … It is 11 different minds acting as one body.” “Each sport offers its own great things that that sport brings to the table, but in football in general, you need every single person on that field at the same time to be holding their weight,” Kozminski said. “You cannot pick up for a slacker. You cannot have just one person outshine for the rest of the team. It takes 11.” Tuesday’s games resulted in losses for both teams. The next home football games, versus Turner Middle School, start at 4 p.m. Sept. 24 at Normandy Field. For a complete Patton sports schedule, visit patton.usd207.org /apps/events/?id=1.

Help available at MAHC to quit smoking, vaping Katie Peterson | Staff Writer

Cigarettes. Cigars. Smokeless tobacco. Each of these have the potential for addictions that can result in lifethreatening health effects, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, lung cancer and other lung-related illnesses, oral cancer, heart disease and more, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Now, vaping and electronic cigarettes have become the latest trend, with users believing it is a healthier substitute for tobacco products, but in reality, it contains the same addictive nicotine substance and other harmful chemicals that can result in health problems.

As of Sept. 17, there have been 380 reported cases of lung illness and seven reported deaths and — while vaping has not been determined as the official cause — every case included a history of vaping or e-cigarette use, according to the Army Public Health Center. Nicotine addiction can make quitting any of these products difficult, especially when they have been used for an extended period, but Munson Army Health Center has resources to help users who are ready to take that step with its Smoking and Vaping Cessation course. The course, which consists of four one-on-one sessions with MAHC Public Health Nurse Lee Hutchison, focuses on

helping the user decide not to smoke. “Each week is a different step,” Hutchison said. “They don’t have to be non-smoking at the time.” The four one-on-one sessions follow the American Cancer Society’s Freshstart program. “Freshstart is designed to help smokers plan a successful quit attempt by providing essential information, skills for coping with cravings and group support,” according to the American Cancer Society’s Workplace Solutions website. The program works in four stages — “decide to quit,” “plan to quit,” “your quit day,” and “stay quit.” “It is strictly a behavior modification process as we help people navigate

through the Freshstart program,” Hutchison said. “It is not a program that they can get medication.” However, to compensate, Public Health is working with MAHC Clinical Pharmacist Dr. Jordan Walker who can prescribe different medications. “She will see them, get a history and be able to prescribe whatever it is they might need or want, and then they’ll see us for the behavioral health side,” Hutchison said. “Working with Doctor Walker will be good because … they’ll get the whole package.” For more information or to make an appointment, call 684-6528.
