Ensuring readiness for Soldiers, Families AMC leaders looking to get the best, most effective, and most efficient programs for Soldiers and their Families

As one of seven focused priorities in support of the Strategic Support area in Multi-Domain Operations, Soldier and Family readiness focuses on ensuring Soldiers and their Families are prepared to navigate the challenges of daily living in the unique context of military service. That mission involves readiness for nearly 1 million Soldiers across all components and about 1.3 million Family members, and includes oversight of more than 104,000 Family housing units and 6,300 Soldier barracks at 72 installations.

s the Army’s most important asset, Soldiers, and the Families who support them, are the top priority in the mission to ensure readiness. Army Materiel Command provides equipment to ensure Soldier readiness for the battlefield. Likewise, AMC is committed to ensuring Soldiers and their Families are ready and resilient to address the challenges of the military lifestyle.

HOUSING INFORMATION Leadership Corner: Army Housing Newsflash June 2019 By Gen. Gus Perna, Army Materiel Command Commanding General Our most important obligation as Army leaders is to take care of our people — our Soldiers, civilians and family members. Recent reports highlighting deficient conditions in family housing across the Army are deeply disturbing. We have wrapped our arms around this, and we are absolutely committed to providing safe and secure housing on every installation. We are taking action to earn back the trust of our housing residents, and holding ourselves and privatized housing companies accountable to provide a high-quality standard of living.

New command structure With the transition of Installation Management Command, which manages the operations of Army installations, as a major subordinate command of Army Materiel Command, I became the Army’s general officer responsible for installation readiness. I am working closely — and am personally involved — with Army leadership and the privatized housing companies to enact a set of policies and programs that will improve residents’ quality of life and, ultimately, Army readiness.

Army Housing Offices on every installation can also provide support and services, even to those living in privatized housing.

We are revising the incentive fee structure with the housing companies to enable Garrison Commanders to advocate on your behalf for higher quality, timely housing support. We are also hiring additional staff at installation housing offices to provide quality assurance checks on the work being done in homes.

Prevention is key to ticks on pets, owners By Margaret Steele Copy Editor

ith summer heat come more opportunities for pets and people to get affected by a tick bite, potentially infected and sick. According to Fairfax County, Lyme disease is the best known and most common disease spread by ticks in Virginia, but there are others such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever and ehrlichiosis, a bacterial illness that causes flu-like symptoms. Factors like weather, habitat and the availability of host animals affect the tick population from yearto-year. “What we do know is that ticks are found throughout our area, so it’s important to take steps to prevent tick bites when you are working or playing outdoors,” said Josh Smith, an environmental health supervisor with the county’s health department. Veterinary officials at Belvoir Veterinary Clinic agree and said prevention is key for animals and people getting bitten by, and potentially sick from, a tick. Dr. Nancy Vincent-Johnson and Capt. Donny Toland offered tips for pet owners who are concerned about

ticks on their pets and on them. Check your pets often for ticks, “We have to check our pets for ticks everywhere, but especially in sheltered areas on them, like between the toes and in the armpits,” Toland said. To remove a tick, try to use tweezers and try to get as much of the bug off of and out of the animal. Pull it straight out, and don’t twist it. Don’t squeeze the tick when you’re removing it, or the virus from the tick could get back onto and into the animal. There are products available that lift and isolate a tick, making it easier to remove from the skin. Toland suggested pet owners check their pets after every time outside. Ticks removed within a day or two of latching onto a pet-host usually don’t have time to infect it. He also said yards can be sprayed for tick prevention, but suggested keeping grass cut as another prevention measure. “The ticks crawl to the top of grass, waiting to latch onto anything that’s nearby that can serve as a host for them,” Toland said. “It’s called ‘questing.’ So, having shorter grass helps them stay off pets and people.”

Capt. Donny Toland, a Veterinary Corps officer, checks for ticks between Gru’s toes at Fort Belvoir Veterinary Clinic. Ticks often like to hide on a pet’s sheltered areas, including armpits and between toes. Gru, owned by Christopher Brett, is a 3-year-old yellow Lab. The most frequent tick, the lone-star tick, doesn’t cause Lyme disease, but other diseases, including arthritis, kidney problems and blood issues, which usually manifest in pets through

fatigue, Vincent-Johnson said. The veterinary industry has tests that can look for diseases and a heartworm test also tests for Lyme. There is a Lyme vaccine for dogs, given once, with a booster three weeks afterward, followed by annual shots. So, the process for immunity takes a while. Lyme can be treated, if diagnosed and caught early,” Vincent-Johnson said. “The tests are looking for antibodies, not disease. Once the animals have Lyme disease, it shows up on tests,” Toland said. As for people, the doctors said preventing bug and tick bites is also key. They suggest wearing light colors, so bugs are easier to see for removal. Also, people should wear long-sleeved shirts and pants tucked into socks or with rubber bands closing them up at the ankles. The county’s website, fairfaxcounty.gov, has a field guide to battle ticks, which includes Tick Check 1-2, a Lyme disease prevention video.

Lubin, who is also AMC’s key adviser for Soldier, Family and civilian programs, said the Army manages more than 39 programs in support of Soldiers and their Families, and civilians, particularly those civilians who are stationed overseas with the same benefits and programs as Soldiers.

“Programs include Army Community Service; Child and Youth Services; suicide prevention, resiliency and substance abuse programs; SHARP; and warrior care and transition programs,” she said.

Categories of support IMCOM manages support programs through Morale, Welfare and Recreation categories A, B and C. Category A, or missionsustaining programs, are ones deemed most essential to meeting organizational objectives and promoting physical and mental well-being of military members, including installation physical fitness and aquatics; library programs; parks and picnic areas; basic social recreational programs; and sports and recreation. These programs are funded through appropriated funds from Congress. Community Support Programs, k n o w n a s C a t e g o r y B, a r e programs and services that offer Soldiers and Families community support systems, such as child development programs; youth activities; outdoor recreation; arts and crafts and automotive skills development; and sports programs above the intramural level.

These programs include golf courses; recreational lodging; bowling centers; clubs and boating activities. “The services we provide to support Soldiers, Families and civilians are similar to services they can find outside the gate in our communities and cities,” Lubin said. “But, whether they get these services inside or outside the gate, we want to make sure the services provided enhance readiness and resiliency, and mitigate any risks or challenges our Soldiers, Families and civilians may be experiencing.”

Ready and Resilient in 2035 All MWR categories, both those generating revenues and those relying on primarily appropriated funds, will be reviewed to ensure the proper revenue and expense calculations are being used in each of the categories, Lubin said. “This is an opportunity for AMC to be the integrator between the execution and distribution

of resources so we get the best programs, and the most effective and most efficient programs.” The goal is to know what is happening with MWR programs and services at the installation level, and then look for ways to make improvements that impact readiness and resiliency. “As the Army rebalances the force, and rebalances service deployments, objectives and costs, we owe it to our Soldiers, Families and civilians to address their current needs to improve readiness today, and enable a ready and resilient Army of 2035,” Lubin said. AMC and IMCOM will look to commanders to identify and provide information on what services and programs are working for Soldiers and what aren’t, she said. “Commanders need to know what their units require to be ready. They need to tell us how we are supporting those requirements, and what they see as strengths and weaknesses,” Lubin said. “AMC now has the unique mission of being the total force provider, integrating materiel readiness and Soldier, Family and civilian readiness to maintain the Army’s strategic advantage in generating, projecting and sustaining forces across all domains.”

Organization Day brings Garrison together Directorates and staffers get time to relax, celebrate hard work and build camaraderie By Paul Lara Staff Writer arrison directorates and staffers took time Friday to get out of the office, under relaxed circumstances, to enjoy some great food and good company along the Potomac River at the Garrison Organization Day 2019. The event was to show everyone in the garrison appreciation for their commitment and hard work, which is essential to the garrison’s daily operation, according to Col. Michael Greenberg, garrison commander. “Whether you work with young children, serve us food, help us work out, or get us the IDs we need, thank you to each and every one of you for your part in the greater community known as Fort Belvoir,” Greenberg said. Given the wide distribution of the garrison members, reaching 90 miles

Org Day started Friday morning with a lip-synch challenge in Wallace

Theater and a flash mob, then moved to the basin for collaborative games such as tug of war, 3-legged race, balloon toss and cornhole. MWR gave out raffle prizes, including a 51-inch TV, while civilians, Soldiers and family enjoyed

the afternoon’s fun, games and food. The activities were supposed to include kayaking and canoeing, but high winds blowing through the area made the Potomac waters too choppy for safe boating. A large garrison team with much to celebrate at Org Day was Child and Youth Services. Two years ago, one Child Development Center and 12 classrooms at the other four CDC facilities were closed, according to Janet Evans, CYS Chief. All of that is now opened, along with restoring more than 175 staff positions, bringing CYS staffing up to its full staffing allotment of 513. So the CYS team, spread out across Fort Belvoir and down to Rivanna Station, gathered Friday at Org Day to relax and celebrate the accomplishment. “Everybody’s worked so hard over the last year, and this is why today is really important, to give them this day of fun and thank them for all their hard work,” Evans said. “CYS caregivers have a tough job, so we wanted to do something fun for a change,” Bryant said. “Everybody had that buy-in and they needed it.”

During her time in the G-2, she conceptualized and developed the ARCENT G-2 First Contact Team, which prepared deploying units’ intelligence sections to meet theater requirements for manning, equipping and training. She collected the necessary information to prepare the units with the most effective training plan and answered over 300 requests for information from units at all echelons. Monday also served as the lead officer on all intelligence-

related issues pertaining to Army Reserve and National Guard units, including retrieving funding and coordinating with the Theater Military Intelligence Brigade and Army Reserve Intelligence Support Centers to schedule pre-deployment training. She was instrumental in training three division headquarters G-2 sections for Operation Spartan Shield, served as the representative supporting the final planning conferences and validation exercises for two division headquarters, and simultaneously trained two regional support

command headquarters to serve as the ARCENT augmentation staff in the forward operating base in Kuwait. Monday also initiated the ARCENT “Sister in Arms” program at the main command post, which encouraged Soldiers and leaders to participate in a Women’s Mentorship and Development program that promoted the service and leadership of female Soldiers. The award is named after Col. Carl F. Eifler, who enlisted in the Army Reserve as a private in 1928 and received a commission after completing his officer training through correspondence courses. In 1942, while assigned to the Office of the Coordinator of Information, later renamed the Office of Strategic Services, Gen. William Donovan directed Eifler to establish and train a paramilitary unit in the China/ Burma/India Theater. Eifler and this unit, called Detachment 101, established a school to teach selected indigenous people all aspects of espionage and sabotage. During World War II, Detachment 101 and its agents were responsible for rescuing more than 200 downed Airmen, sabotaging the railroad system, and clearing the enemy from more than 10,000 square miles. Eifler was inducted into the Military Intelligence Corps Hall of Fame in 1988.

Angry Birds Bowling takes flight By Rick Musselman Sports Editor

ozens of Belvoir children a n d Fa m i l y m e m b e r s flocked to the Bowling Center, Saturday to compete in the Angry Birds bowling tournament. Participants even got to play alongside Col. Michael Greenberg, t h e Fo r t B e l v o i r G a r r i s o n Commander. The event was designed by Fort Belvoir Elementary and Upper schools to celebrate the end of the school year and featured standard 10-frame games. But, instead of being scored on the number of pins downed, players advanced through the various levels of the popular video game, Angry Birds. The scoring monitors at each lane featured game play in real time, displaying each player’s progress. “This is the second time we’ve

held this event,” said Jamey Chianetta, Fort Belvoir Upper School principal. “We tried to put together a family-centered event to celebrate the start of summer and Colonel Greenberg was really supportive of the idea. It’s all about fun.” “The elementary and upper schools have this event to celebrate the end of the school year; we’ve got a great turnout today, especially considering how nice the weather is outside,” Greenberg said. The turnout was impressive, with every lane in the house packed with competitors and spectators. The Bowling Center added to the excitement by activating the Cosmic Bowling light and music system. Laser beams and flashing colors pulsed with the beat of modern tunes for the whole Angry Birds Bowling event. For information about special

Royals triumph, claim CYS soccer title By Rick Musselman Sports Editor The Fort Belvoir Royals kept offensive momentum at full steam through two dynamic halves and a penalty-kick period to take a narrow, 4-3 victory over the Tsunami in the 2019 Child and Youth Services U13 division (ages 10-12) spring soccer championship, June 6 on Long Parade Field. Not much separated the last two teams in their runs for the championship trophy after 60 minutes of action, said Rafael Lopez, Royals head coach. The third-seeded Royals (dark blue) scored early in the first half of play, but the top-seeded Tsunami (light blue) found the back of the net in the second half to tie it up and send the game to the penalty shootout. In the ensuing battle of penalty kicks, the Royals ultimately outscored the Tsunami, 4-3, to win the title. Each year, the Belvoir youth

Beginner boating classes This beginner boating class gives you the knowledge needed to meet the boat license or safety certification requirements in all states. Many boat insurance companies will offer discounts on boating insurance to boaters who successfully complete About Boating Safely. Students get a textbook, laminated wallet card, certificate, and a number of safety-related Coast Guard reference materials. Fee: $40 for one, $60 for two, $80 for three sharing the textbook. The next class is July 20 at Washington Farm United Methodist Church, 3921 Old Mill Road, Alexandria, Va. 22309. For more info, contact Ted Caliga, johnbielli@gmail.com, 202-329-9485.

If you enjoy boating and appreciate the navigational aids and other resources that make America’s waters safe, you can give much of the credit to the U.S. Coast Guard and to its unpaid, volunteer Auxiliary, which has its 80th anniversary this month. The Coast Guard Auxiliary was established by Congress on June 23, 1939, to help address an increase in boating accidents as the U.S. emerged from the Great Depression and more Americans could afford boats. During WW II Auxiliarists were authorized to serve as temporary Coast Guard reservists. Like the Auxiliarist on lookout in the black and white photo, they helped secure America’s waters. Today, the Auxiliary’s 26,000 volunteers provide nearly 4 million hours of service annually in all 50 states, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa and Guam, offering Boating Safety classes, free Vessel Safety Checks and Safety Patrols like

the one conducted in the photo by Auxiliarists John Sawyer, left, and Jim Bach, right, from Flotilla 2508 (Mount Vernon) in Alexandria, Virginia. Modern-day Auxiliarists do not have law enforcement or military responsibilities, but provide radio watch standers at Coast Guard stations and with search and rescue when called upon by the Coast Guard. Like their active-duty and Reserve Coast Guard counterparts, Auxiliarists are “Semper Paratus” (always ready) and always looking for volunteers. Contact Flotilla 25-08’s Vice Flotilla Commander Ted Caliga at johnbielli@gmail.com, to learn how to join.
