he Fort Belvoir community gathered last week to honor the nation’s fallen Service members, at a Memorial Day observance on Long Parade Field. Col. Michael Greenberg, Fort Belvoir Garrison commander, spoke, quoting President Franklin Roosevelt, “Those who have long enjoyed such privileges as we enjoy, forget in time, that men have died to win them.” Greenberg added he was thinking of his many friends, colleagues and co-workers he’s lost since being a Soldier. “Since 9/11, more than 6,700 American Service members have died in operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom. Because of this, Memorial Day is so important, not only to the military community, but to the nation, as a whole,” Greenberg said. “For as long as the United States has existed, American Service mem-

Invincible Spirit Festival thanks Soldiers, families Surviving the storm with food, music and dance By Paul Lara Special to the Eagle

f it wasn’t one thing, it was another. A series of events kept challenging the organizers of this year’s Invincible Spirit Festival on Fort Belvoir’s Pullen Field. The first date was canceled after Gary Sinise was unable to travel, so event sponsors, The Sinise Foundation and USO Metro, scrambled to find another date. May 23 was chosen, and then Chef Robert Irvine was

unable to attend with his team, but everyone pushed on. Then, just an hour before the event - a severe thunderstorm blew across Fort Belvoir, soaking everything and making the bounce houses too wet for use. “It was like hanging on by your fingernails,” said Elaine Rogers, president and CEO of USO-Metro, one the principal sponsors of the festival, which occurs every other year on post. “We watched the storm clouds coming in, thinking, ‘this is just going to be awful,’” she said. The storms passed without much damage, beyond a soaking, and the soaring temperatures dropped

Gary started his band career with the USO, as we sent him overseas. So he’s been performing with the USO

Alcohol + Summer Activities = DANGER From James A. Peters Alcohol and Drug Prevention Coordinator

emorial Day marked the beginning of “101 Days of Summer 2019,” an Army campaign focusing on reminding Soldiers, civilians, retirees and family members about being safe while involved in off-duty and summer activities, especially from Memorial Day through Labor Day. While safety is a 365-days-a-year effort, this campaign emphasizes the importance of recognizing that summer activities present unique opportunities for risks. We should plan summer fun with safety in mind. The Fort Belvoir Army Substance Abuse Program wants everyone to enjoy their favorite activities, while ensuring they avoid alcohol impairment, to mitigate high-risk behaviors. Here are a few tips to highlight how we all can work together to secure a happy summer:

Boating Safety Alcohol impairs vision and motor skills needed to safely operate a motor vehicle in normal operating conditions. Drinking and boating

poses additional risks. Alcohol can impair a boater’s judgment, balance, vision and reaction time. A d d i t i o n a l l y, i n t o x i c a t e d passengers can lead to slips on deck, falls overboard, or accidents at the dock. Everyone onboard needs to wear an approved life jacket, and drinking while boating should be avoided. Moreover, ensure someone on land knows your water travel plans, in case you have an emergency while on the water.

Heat Safety Whether you are on the road or in the great outdoors, heat plus alcohol can equal trouble. Heat causes perspiration, while alcohol ignites dehydration. If you drink outside in the heat, watch for signs of heat stress or heat stroke. Take frequent breaks in the shade and stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Wear loosefitting clothing, a hat and sunglasses to prevent UV over exposure and don’t forget the sunscreen.

Driving Safety When going on vacation, drivers may be traveling an unfamiliar route, hauling a boat or camper, and

distracted by additional passengers. Adding alcohol to the mix puts the lives of the driver, everyone in the car, and other people on the road at risk. Additionally, the misuse of alcohol or prescription drugs can have significant traumatic effect on your health and financial wellbeing, if you require medical treatment or if you are involved in a motor vehicle accident. One should never drink and drive, not even one alcoholic beverage. The Fort Belvoir community cannot afford to lose a Service member, family member, or civilian employee to a preventable injury. Now is the time to evaluate and ensure all aspects of your summer safety initiatives are in order. Keep in mind that none of these tips will do you any good if you don’t make safety your top priority during each and every one of the “101 Days

•Heat exhaustion may have any or all of these symptoms: A feeling of exhaustion; nausea; dizziness; pale and clammy skin; quick pulse; and low blood pressure. Heat exhaustion is a warning the mechanism controlling heat for the body is seriously overtaxed. •Heat stroke can be fatal. The body’s heat control mechanism simply shuts down, perspiration stops and body temperature rises. The heart pounds and skin becomes flushed and hot. This condition is a medical emergency to be treated immediately. For Wet Bulb Globe Temperature, go to www.fbch.capmed.mil/ About/wbgt.aspx of Summer.” So when you go out and enjoy those activities, remember “Be Safe.” For more information, call the ASAP Prevention Coordinator, 703805-1010.

More than 2,000 people turned out for the Invincible Spirit Festival on Pullen Field, May 23. The headline event was an enthusiastic performance by the Lt. Dan Band.

I always feel that we can never do enough for our defenders and their families, but we can always try to do a little more to ensure that you know there’s a grateful nation out there that does not forget.

On with the show After attendees dined on hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken and sides, the show began with Chicago band Stolen Silver, performing a variety of Indie-Folk and Americana tunes. Then, more than 2,000 attendees were treated to the sounds of the Lt. Dan Band, blasting cover tunes that got the audience up on their feet. A band member came down into the audience and, while singing Gloria Estefan’s hit song, Conga, formed a conga line that kept growing as it wound through the crowd. The Invincible Spirit Festival celebrates the courage of wounded Service members and their families and caregivers by performing concerts of gratitude around the world.

In doing so, we remember their sacrifice and we honor their determination and courage. We look within ourselves to find the same and to seek inspiration to face uncertainty and danger,” Berger said. He added that May 17 marked the 12th anniversary of the loss of a young Army paralegal, Cpl. Coty Phelps, killed by an IED in Iraq at age 21.

Afterward, when a camouflaged, enemy soldier threw a grenade at the remaining platoon members, Jecelin immediately covered the grenade with his body, absorbing the full force of the explosion to save those around him. “This incredible courage and willingness to sacrifice himself for his comrades so imbued them with fury that they completely eliminated the enemy force,” Berger said. “Think about that … Sergeant Jecelin led, ultimately giving his life.

She relayed how, every day, she tries to live up to the level of energy Coty brought to the team, how she sees Phelps’ infectious smile in her young Soldiers’ faces and sees his dedication to our Army’s mission in everything they do.” Berger recalled. “We can show our thanks in both honoring their sacrifice and celebrating the freedoms it protected,” he said. “ … before we move into summer, kicking it off with a weekend of barbecues, let us get lost, if just for a moment, in 21-gun salutes and trumpets crying the mournful notes of Taps. “It is in the service we perform every day that we honor and celebrate their enthusiasm and faith to our nation and their fellow countrymen and women,” said Berger.

National Prayer Luncheon held at O’ Club Chaplain shares that passion and intensity are important parts of prayer By Paul Lara Special to the Eagle

he chaplain of ARCYBER, Col. Gregory Edison, speaking at the 2019 National Prayer Luncheon at the Fort Belvoir Officers’ Club, May 22, said the apostle James made a point that praying with passion and intensity is an important part of seeing our prayers answered, adding that being with each other, and God, will influence how effective our prayers will be. “You’ll never see the word ‘prayer’ in modern military doctrine or in field manuals or Army techniques publications but, in Biblical times, it was utilized and strategically effective,” he said, pointing to Joshua’s victories through faith in God, rather than military might or numerical superiority. Citing the patriotic portrait of General George Washington praying at Valley Forge before sending his men to battle, Edison explained

prayer is in the ethos and fabric of America, built on the First Amendment’s cornerstones of freedom and religion. Edison said the Army seeks solutions for certain problem-sets, and so does faith in prayer. To pray with passion, he offers five suggestions: •Remind yourself of answered prayers •Remind yourself of God’s promises for you (Edison says there are more than 50 listed in the Bible) •Make friends with people who are passionate about their faith and their enthusiasm will be infectious •Spend time in worship and adoration of the Lord •Spend time alone with God; mute all distractions and enjoy God’s praise Prayer is more than a tool; it is a conversation, Edison added. “Prayer does not fit us for the greater work; prayer is the greater work,” he said. In keeping with the military’s

Worship and adore God for his grace and forgiveness. C is for confession. Confess to God about sins before you make requests of him. T is for Thanksgiving. Thank God for your spouse, children, co-workers or anything God brings to mind. S is for supplication. Ask God for those things that are heavy on your heart.” Edison advised not to worry about using religious language, and to remember that prayer is a simple conversation with God that is both reverential and relational.

Col. Gregory Edison, ARCYBER Command Chaplain, speaks during the 2019 National Day of Prayer at the Officers' Club, May 22. The National Day of Prayer, an observance usually held the first Thursday in May, was established by President Harry Truman in 1952.

Army museum seeks volunteers By National Museum of the U.S. Army Public Affairs Office

he National Museum of the United States Army has taken another step forward by opening applications for their Volunteer Program. The National Army Museum is now accepting applications for volunteers who will work alongside the museum staff to provide visitor support when the facility is open and operating. Zelpha Anderson, chief, Visitor Services Division, said she is looking for individuals who are passionate about the U.S. Army and sharing the stories of the men and women who have worn the Army uniform throughout our nation’s history. There will be a variety of volunteer opportunities, such as visitor services, special events, tours, education, outdoor activities, and administration. Through the application process, interested volunteers will have the opportunity to share their skills, interests and abilities to help match them to a volunteer position. The museum staff anticipates approximately 750,000 visitors

annually and the facility will be open every day of the year, except December 25. “The Museum will be a premier travel destination and will offer an assortment of programs and events, in addition to touring the historic galleries,” explained Anderson. “We will need a robust volunteer force to ensure an outstanding visitor

experience.” Anderson says her goal is to gather a group of 300 volunteers who are trained and ready for the Museum’s opening in 2020. The volunteer application is available now; interviews will begin late this summer and training will begin in the fall. “I am so excited to begin this

phase of the project because of the enthusiasm we’re seeing from those who are interested in volunteering,” remarked Anderson. “Veterans, history lovers, Army family members, local residents … they are all stepping forward with passion and offering to share their talents and time with us at the Museum.” The Museum staff also has a goal of developing a volunteer corps that will reflect the diversity of the Army and of their visitors, and encourages everyone to apply. “You don’t need a specific degree or work experience to be a volunteer,” emphasized Anderson. “What we need is you.” To learn more about volunteering at the NMUSA, or to apply, visit armyhistory.org/museum-volunteers or call 800-506-2672.
