Regional Health Command-Atlantic welcomes new commanding general By G.H. Cureton Regional Health CommandAtlantic Public Affairs Brig. Gen. Telita Crosland assumed command of Regional Health Command-Atlantic during a ceremony hosted by Lt. Gen. Nadja Y. West, Army Surgeon General, on Fort Belvoir Tuesday. Regional Health Command-Atlantic is the largest of the U.S. Army’s four health care regions that provide medical, dental and public-health support to approximately 600,000 Soldiers, retirees and their families at Army medical centers, hospitals, and clinics from Wisconsin to Puerto Rico. West called Crosland a selfless, phenomenal leader who excelled during a time of transition and change in Germany in 2010 and, years later, as the chief of operations for the Army Medical Command. “I’m really pleased to see you as the commander of the largest region in our Army Medical Command, West said. “You are going to do great things and you, as a regional team, are lucky to have such a great, caring, compassionate, competent, put all of the superlatives there, and that describes General Crosland.” Taking the podium for the first time as the regional commanding general, Crosland thanked the surgeon general for giving her the opportunity to lead the most powerful and diverse region in Army Medicine. “As many of you are aware, our health care system is in the

During this early state of change, RHC-Atlantic has already proven to be full of focused, insightful and unselfish team members as we move to transition military health system through a very dynamic period. “I am excited to join you at this critical juncture,” Crosland continued. “We will continue to excel on the battlefield and in the
exam room. We will continue to serve our patients, our Army and our nation with distinction.” Crosland is a graduate of the U.S. Military Academy; the Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences; the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College; and the Dwight D. Eisenhower School for National Security and Resource Strategy. In addition to her doctorate of medicine degree, Crosland also holds a Master of Public Health
degree from the Uniformed Resource Strategy from the Eisenhower School. The general entered the Army as a Medical Corps officer in 1993. She is board certified by the American Board of Family Medicine, is a fellow of the American Academy of Family Physicians and is a recipient of the Surgeon General’s A proficiency designator. Crosland has served in a variety of leadership positions, including at Camp Walker Health Clinic, South Korea; Bennett Health Clinic, Fort Hood, Texas; three positions at Fort Lewis, Wash.; Grafenwoehr, Germany; Office of The Surgeon General, Falls Church; Heidelberg, Germany; Landstuhl, Germany; and forts Knox and Campbell, Ky.

USO-Metro helps transitioning Service members take Next STEP Story, photos by Paul Lara
Students came to class, Monday at the USO Warrior and Family Center on Belvoir and also turned a key transition point, as the dozen-plus students completed the course for Certified Information System Security Professional, or CISSP. The program is for active-duty Service members interested in cyber security careers after transitioning from the military. This is the second time USO-Metro has conducted this class, which is made available through Project Next S.T.E.P. (Service Member Transition Program), a USO career-education program designed to prepare and train soon-to-transition Service members for in-demand, civil certification tests. The course provides current skills that
complement the strong leadership skills Service members have. Maura Gondek, a transition program specialist with USO-Metro, said this is important validation of what Service members have already accomplished. “We knew that the Service members had all these skills and knowledge in the military world, and it was just getting that knowledge translated into civilian terms and experience to make them more marketable and employable,” she said. Project Next S.T.E.P. is expanding to support military spouses who may be transitioning to a new work environment as a result of a PCS move. Other education opportunities offered twice yearly are Cisco Certified Network Associate and Project Management Professional training.

INSCOM downs USALSA in soccer barn burner By Rick Musselman Sports Editor Intelligence and Security Command and U.S. Army Legal Services Agency closed out the FY18 intramural soccer regular season with a defense-heavy showdown that kept the action at full steam through two dynamic periods, May 30 at Fremont Field. Fifth-place INSCOM (3-3) went into the contest determined to safely secure its slot in the forthcoming championship tournament and, courtesy of a powerhouse passing game and a no-prisoners approach to defense, the squad emerged triumphant, taking a 2-1 victory and punching its ticket to the playoffs. David Linares netted both of INSCOM’s scores and Josh Dickenson scored one for USALSA.

From the Villages at Belvoir, concerning recent rains Dear Residents, First, we want to thank each of you for your patience as heavy rain moved through our community over the past few days. You may see damages or standing water at or around your home and/or Village. We have and will be responding to damages left behind by the rain. Our maintenance team has been working through the weekend and will continue to work to triage all of the work orders called in over the weekend. If we have not yet made it to your home, a member of our team or one of our contractors will be coming soon.
With all the heavy rainfall, there are areas throughout the Villages that still have standing water or need to dry out before we can get back to regular mowing and landscaping operations. We will send out a new mowing schedule, once its available. We ask for your continued patience and understanding as we work this week to make repairs and to clean up our beautiful community. Of course, if you have any questions, please reach out to your community management office. - The Villages at Belvoir Team
