BELVOIR HOUSING UPDATE Compiled by USAG Fort Belvoir Public Affairs
Defense Department working to add key provisions to tenant bill of rights

T
he tenant bill of rights, signed by Defense senior leaders, may soon include three more key provisions to help rebuild trust about privatized housing. The document has 15 provisions to ensure Service members and their families get fair treatment under the Military Housing Privatization Initiative. Mark Esper, secretary of defense; Ryan McCarthy, Army secretary; and other service secretaries signed it Feb. 25. The three additional provisions propose to provide military tenants a dispute-resolution process; the right to withhold rent until a
dispute is resolved; and access to a building’s maintenance history before a move-in date, officials told the House Committee on Appropriations’ military subcommittee. “Since early last year, the DoD has been working to address the concerns of our military families,” said Pete Potochney, acting assistant secretary of defense for sustainment, in written testimony for the hearing. “We recognize and acknowledge that our oversight of the program had not been up to the standards established at the outset,” which includes leadership engagement, he added. The tenant bill of rights included inputs from almost 200,000 households. Within the original provisions, Soldiers have the right to live in a house and community that meets health and environmental standards, and are assured the right to report inadequate housing or deficiencies, without fear of reprisal or retaliation. The document also includes the right of access to a military tenant advocate or a military legal assistance attorney through their installation’s housing management office. Tenants have the right to communicate directly with the landlord and maintenance staff. They were also assured access to an electronic work order system, where they can request maintenance and track progress. (To read the full tenant bill of rights, Soldiers can click on the related link below.) The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020 included significant modifications and additions to the MHPI

legal framework, Potochney said, rendering the initial bill of rights insufficient. To fix the issue, Defense officials are working with MHPI partners on improved dispute resolution and rent-withholding processes, he added. The tenant bill of rights and the MHPI tenant responsibilities document, “will help provide consistency across the program for all residents, many of whom live on multiple installations during their career,” Potochney said. “Rebuilding trust with Service members and their families will take time, and we are committed to this effort,” he added. The reconstitution of program oversight will restore “trust with military families living in privatized housing, and enhance the spirit of collaboration with our private sector partners ... ensuring the viability of the program well into the future.”

ASAP works to reduce high-risk behaviors By Paul Lara Belvoir Eagle
Y
etta Canty, Army Substance Abuse Program risk reduction coordinator, is the action officer at Belvoir’s Installation Prevention Team monthly meetings, where she briefs the garrison on high-risk behavior in all Belvoir units. Canty said she began recognizing many of the high-risk behaviors were concentrated in three areas: financial problems, child abuse and domestic violence. “When we did a deeper dive, we saw those behaviors were concentrated among certain units,” said Canty. “Instead of creating blanket training across the installation, we wanted to provide customized training to those targeted units.” That was the genesis of the Prevention Integration Team, which presents a list of documented behaviors to unit commanders, and offers interactive tasks to raise awareness, while offering mitigation strategies to each member.

Yetta Canty, ASAP’s risk reduction coordinator, conducts a Prevention Integration Team session with Soldiers in September.
As opposed to ‘death by PowerPoint,’ RaShonda Labrador, ASAP Prevention Branch supervisor, said PIT is interactive, and easily tailored to command guidance. “We present this data to leadership, let them decide what type of training they want, and show them what we can do to reduce those risks,” she said.
Lasting Effects After each PIT session, the same data used to identify behaviors is tracked afterward, to note changes. Labrador said the IPT was pleased to see results. “This risk-reduction data that drove us to identify the challenge is the same one we use to see how the data is adding up. One thing we did notice – we have seen a decrease.” Doryan Dixon, Belvoir ASAP manager, said there was some apprehension before the first PIT was conducted, but she was pleased with the feedback. “For seven out of eight quarters, the trend was the same. When we started the PIT, that trend started to go down among units we worked with,” Dixon said, adding “When I went through those surveys, at least 98% said they needed more time. It let us know this interactive training was headed in the right direction.” Labrador said PIT sessions are designed to enhance Army readiness. “If I can recognize that my battle buddy is struggling, and I can get them to the resources that they need, I end up increasing the readiness of our unit, because we’re able to utilize those skills that we picked up through the PIT.”

DTRA colonel, Army buddies take Army flag atop Mount Kilimanjaro

F
itness is an integral part of the U.S. Service members’ lives, and keeping fit normally entails an hour or more of cardio and weightlifting a few times a week. But, for one Defense Threat Reduction Agency colonel and his friends, it was more than just stepping on a treadmill or running the Army Ten-Miler. When Col. Mike Binetti’s long-time friend, Mike Jeffress visited, Jeffress suggested Binetti and four other of their friends, who all had served together, go to Tanzania to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, Binetti wasn’t sure he wanted to take on the challenge.
“I was not that excited about it at first, because I do everything with my family,” said Binetti, who has been in the Army for 23 years and is the chief of future operations and integration at DTRA. “To my surprise, it was my wife who actually convinced me to be there for my friends and do it.” The six met more than 20 years ago at Fort Bragg, N.C., when they were all lieutenants, and have kept their friendship going ever since. Binetti and his wife, Heather Herbert, met while both active-duty captains and deployed in support of OIF. She is a lieutenant colonel in the Army Judge
“I wanted to have the Army flag, because it was the Army that brought the six of us together and afforded us the opportunity to form the bond we have.” Col. Mike Binetti, DTRA
Advocate General Corps. Having served in the Army herself, Herbert understands the bond military members develop. “I think males, and especially males in the military, have to be so focused on their careers and keeping their families intact as they deploy and move, that they forget to nurture their friendships,” said Herbert. “To me, it was not as much about climbing
Kilimanjaro as it was about spending quality time with old friends. I was not worried. He was with his Army buddies, and I knew they would make it,” she said. Jeffress, the trip organizer, said he reached out to his closest friends, told them he was going to climb the mountain, and that it would be great if they did it with him. According to mountain-climbing experts, less experienced climbers climb Kilimanjaro between June and October, when the weather is more pleasant. Binetti’s group did it in early January, when everyone was available. Kilimanjaro’s summit elevation is at 19,341 feet and gains quickly, making it challenging to climb. “We did not do much out of ordinary to prepare for the climb, but we all made sure we maintained our fitness levels to face the altitude change,” Binetti said. “Our research showed you could be the fittest person in the world and not be able to do it, so, based on our shared military culture of looking out for one another, we were determined to help each other make it to the top.” Their mountain climb took them 10 days. Climbers cannot climb Kilimanjaro on their own and must hire a professional guide. Binetti and his friends hired an outfitter whose guides and porters made See Kilimanjaro, page 7

From Kilimanjaro, page 7 the climb manageable by carrying all their tents, food, water and oxygen. He and his friends carried their backpacks for personal items, trekking poles and gaiters. They observed several people who could not make the climb, mostly due to the altitude change. “We were lucky to have the guides,” said Tim Bigwood, another climber in Binett’s group. “The outfitter dedicated a 40-man team to do the climb with us. They were anywhere from 18 to 40 years old and rotated to take and bring back supplies. We had two permanent, medicallytrained guides; a camp commander; and a chef who were with us during the whole 10 days.” Their climbing schedule varied based on the day. On the last day, they had to wake up at 2 a.m. and climb for five and a half hours to reach the summit. “For us, it was a once in a lifetime opportunity to get there, but for the outfitter crew, it was just another Tuesday,” said Bigwood.
Col. Mike Binetti, second from left, and his friends.
Binetti carried the Army flag with him, and the first thing he did, was to hold it for a picture. “I wanted to have the Army flag, because it was the Army that brought the six of us together and afforded us the opportunity to form the bond we have,” he said. “It was a great feeling to make it to the top.” One thing that surprised Binetti was the amount of trash they saw between base camp and the summit. “There were hand warmers, juice boxes, bottles and other trash all over the ground,” Binetti said. In concert with his outdoors-loving nature and a sense of caring for the planet, he used one of his waterproof bags and collected as much trash as he could fit in the bag to dispose properly. The descent was the hardest part of the journey for all of them. Aside from adjusting to the altitude, it was particularly hard on knees, quadriceps and toes. After spending a couple of
hours on the summit, they began their two-day descent. Herbert said she hopes her husband’s story will inspire other people to reach out to their old friends and go on an adventure. While there may not be another major mountain climbing in their future, Binetti and friends agree there will be other adventures for the six of them. “We are not going up in altitude again; I can tell you that,” said Bigwood. “We are thinking of a domestic teamwork event, like white water rafting.” For Binetti and his circle of Army friends, the trips was unforgettable and unique. “I would tell my children to not be afraid to take new opportunities; sometimes you will find lifelong friends. As for my fellow Soldiers, I say that if a 45-year-old colonel can do it, so can you. Just because something seems to be a big goal, it is not far off.”

Progress made for spouses’ trans-state professional license agreements
Photo by Senior Airman Susan Roberts
The Defense Department, working with state governments, is making it easier for military spouses’ professional licenses to be accepted in their new state when service members are transferred. By David Vergun Defense.gov
T
he Defense Department and state governments are making it easier for military spouses’ professional licenses to be accepted in their new state, when Service members transferred, a DoD official said. Marcus Beauregard, director of the DefenseState Liaison Office, said this is particularly important because military families move frequently, and 34% of spouses need licensure reciprocity when they move. About 53% of military spouses with professional licenses are in health-related
ARMY GOLF OPEN TO ALL
military spouse moves to Texas from another state, Texas’ appropriate professional board will know if the state that issued the original license is equivalent to the Texas license. If it is, Texas will issue a license to the military spouse without a lot of paperwork or undue delay. Ohio, on the other hand, provides a temporary license provision, recognizing a license from out of state as good for six years. There’s been a lot of progress on reciprocity, but more work still needs to be done. Beauregard noted. The nurse licensure compact is probably the most progressive, he said. It has been approved in 34 states and is being considered by about 10 others. Defense Secretary Dr. Mark T. Esper added family readiness as a line of effort in the National Defense Strategy, Beauregard said. As part of that effort, the DoD delivered a report to Congress and state governors: ‘’Military Spouse Licensure: State Best Practices and Strategies for Achieving Reciprocity.’’ DoD has been working on this since 2011, Beauregard said, and a 2017 University of Minnesota study on the results of these efforts found significantly mixed results. ‘’There were lots of circumstances where (licensure) boards may have interpreted the broad law differently than we had anticipated and really did not make it much easier for military spouses,’’ he said. ‘’We also found that implementation of those laws was not consistent throughout the states.’’
occupations; 28% in education; 4% in crafts and trades; and 15% in other occupations, he told reporters at the Pentagon. The number of licenses required by any given state varies, he said. For example, North Carolina has 200 licensed occupations. Ideally, Beauregard said, changes in state law would include endorsement of current licenses from out of state, temporary licensing, and an expedited application process for military spouses. Reciprocity is made possible by state compacts, or agreements among states that take precedence over individual states’ laws. Compacts can allow a licensed person to move from the issuing state and work in another state. Beauregard noted that compacts and state practices vary. For example, he said, Arizona has adopted universal licensing, which has expanded license reciprocity to anyone who becomes a resident. Once a background check is completed and a fee is paid, new residents can get a license from Arizona. Florida has a similar process. Utah has an even more progressive approach, Beauregard said. Since 2012, Utah has allowed transferring military spouses to come into the state to work using the license issued by another state. Texas has developed a standard of ‘’substantial equivalency’’ for licensed occupations, he said. That means when a

The weekly Culpeper Times, the largest circulation newspaper in Culpeper, Va., is seeking its next great Editor. Located just 70 miles from Washington, DC, Culpeper County is a mix of rural and suburban with a thriving “small town” downtown. It’s filled with interesting people and great stories. We’re looking for an enthusiastic journalist with experience to write everything from local government issues stories to features. Reporting and writing are at the forefront of the job. While the Times has a network of freelance contributors, the editor should enjoy being in the community, cultivating — and producing — multiple stories every week. A key goal of the editor also should be to embrace a digital first approach, helping build audience and engagement through timely news coverage, promoted through social media. The Culpeper Times is part of InsideNoVa.com, Northern Virginia’s largest news site. Of course, the editor shapes the Times’s editorial report, and is a primary face of the newspaper in an engaged, vibrant community. Among the position’s responsibilities include producing special sections and publications, often in collaboration with partners in the community. The position also involves copy editing, web/social media posting and managing relationships with freelance contributors. We’re a small, collegial team, and there are a multitude of opportunities for an ambitious journalist to have a big impact. Interested candidates should email their cover letter, resume and clips to Rappahannock Media President Dennis Brack at dennis@rappnews.com

Season’s first game, DTRA’s first win By Rick Musselman Belvoir Eagle
D
efense Threat Reduction Agency demonstrated its unit cohesion and precision offensive execution, when it downed Aerospace Data Facility-East, 2 games to 1, in the FY20 intramural volleyball season opener, March 3 at Wells Field House. DTRA, one of the most successful units in Belvoir’s intramural sports leagues, has more Commander’s Cup trophies at its headquarters than any other unit on post. In classic form, DTRA took command of the court from the opening serve of the first match, fully using its roster of veteran athletes. ADF-E managed to stay within 5 points but, in the end, DTRA emerged on top, 21-15. In match 2, however, ADF-E, always a major contender across the spectrum of sports, came roaring back with a string of blistering spikes early in the exchange to establish a strong lead. Despite a serious effort
on DTRA’s part to thwart their opponents’ gain, ADF-E maintained momentum for the duration and stepped into the winner’s circle with a 21-19 win, balancing the 3-game series at a match apiece. ADF-E’s designs to clinch the series, however, came to a screeching halt, when DTRA unveiled a revamped offensive approach, executing a surgical choreography of bump-set-spike cycles that quickly overwhelmed their opponents. The onslaught continued throughout the exchange, with DTRA closing the series with a 21-9 win. Intramural volleyball games are played Tuesdays and Thursdays, starting at 6:10 p.m. at Wells Field House. For schedules, scores and standings, go to www.quickscores.com/ belvoirmwr. For information about Fort Belvoir’s intramural sports program and the annual Commander’s Cup title race, call Justin Fitzgerald, league coordinator and sports facility manager, 703-806-5093. Athletes can also contact their respective unit representative for to sign up and get schedules.
