Free camp seeks mentors, campers The fifth annual Semper Fi Kid's Camp, will be held July 19-25 at Outdoor Odyssey in Boswell, Pennsylvania. This camp is designed to engage the children of wounded, ill or injured Marines, sailors and other eligible service members (America's Fund and service members from other branches who were injured while serving with Marines) and provide them with a fun wilderness adventure. This unique experience will benefit them as individuals and as members of a team. Activities will facilitate the bonding of each camper with a high school mentor who will serve as the focal point for follow on support in the community for the next school year. Semper Fi Kid's Camp is reaching out to potential mentors and campers. The mentors will be selected from a group of rising juniors and seniors in area high schools who are children of military parents. They
will arrive at the camp a few days before the campers, for training and guidance. Eligible campers are children, ages 8 to 15, whose parents sustained combat or training injuries. Attendees will depart via chartered bus from the National Museum of the Marine Corps aboard Marine Corps Base Quantico, and Camp Lejeune High School. All expenses — transportation, lodging, meals — will be paid by the Semper Fi Fund. For information contact: Camper information at Quantico/NCR: Wendi Mundy, sffncrcampers@gmail.com or 910-750-2507.

QACO earned 2015 Field Office Achievement Award Steven Kim Staff Intern
The Quantico Area Counsel Office was presented the 2015 OGC Field Office Achievement Award at the 2015 OGC Annual Training Symposium in Alexandria May 18-21. Earning this award was no easy task. More than 500 OGC attorneys attended the event and 6 field offices competed for the award. QACO serves as the primary legal advisor and consultant for Marine Corps Base Quantico. QACO represents diverse clients such as the Commanding General, Marine Corps Combat Development Command, Marine Corps Installation-National Capital Region, Marine Corps Systems Command, Marine Corps Recruiting Command, Marine Corps Trademark and License Office and 12 tenant commands located on Marine Corps Base Quantico. The QACO team consists of 20 attorneys (two which are Marine Corps Judge Advocates) and four support staff. QACO has a comprehensive set of legal responsibili-
ties in the areas of government contracts, procurement and fiscal law, civilian personnel and labor law, real and personal property law, environment and land use law, intellectual property law and government ethics. The 2015 Field Office Achievement Award is not a quarterly or annual award, QACO earned this by demonstrating significant accomplishments over a 24 month period. Counsel of QACO, Jules Rothlein stated, “One of the biggest contributing factors for our successes was the cost-avoidance aspect of our work.” Several notable accomplishments include QACO’s active engagement in the civilian personnel law litigation process which resulted in 19 cases being settled before hearings and 12 cases being dismissed in favor of the Marine Corps. The settlements, dismissals, and QACO’s active engagement contributed to a costavoidance of $3.8 million. Additionally, QACO’s acquisition attor-
neys demonstrated their procurement law litigation skills by successfully defending 49 bid protests which resulted in achieving dismissals in each case. Contracting support actions also resulted in the successful award of a $700 million multi-year Marine Corps Recruiting advertising contract. QACO also played an essential role in supporting Navy OGC’s New Attorney Orientation Program and its Summer Law Clerk Program. Deputy Counsel for MCB Quantico Glenn Hancock replied, “QACO makes up about 13 percent out of all counsels in the entire Department of the Navy. From this award and our continued hard work, people will recognize the contributions in legal support that we do.” Other notable achievements include QACO providing active environmental and land-use law support for a number of high profile environmental-concerns. During these matters, QACO worked closely

CHAPLAIN
“Memory” LT Loren M� Crone, USN Marine Corps Embassy Security Group
“But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.” Memory, much has been made of memory. Memory might be the number one cause of innovation. Books, games, tools, tricks, devices, shortcuts, and more have all been created to help humans remember. Let’s be honest, who can remember anything, except a few savants? Almost all of us need a calendar, phone or a call
from our mother to remember the birthdays of those who are most important to us. I even know a few people who have forgotten their own birthday. I could do some research, and tell you why this is so, but you likely won’t remember unless you save this article or decide to commit it to your long-term memory. As an exercise, I almost put last year’s memorial article in this section, just to see if anyone would remember. Would you have remembered? Thanks be to God, for He has promised us the Holy Spirit, who would “bring to your remembrance” all that Jesus said. What a wonderful promise, especially during a time when most could not read or write. An excerpt from the great book Moonwalking with Einstein captures this idea: “Once upon a time, memory was at the root of all culture: remember-
ing was everything…Techniques existed to etch into the brain foundational texts and ideas… Orthodox Jews memorized all 5,422 pages of the Talmud so that when a pin was stuck through it, they could tell which words it passed through on every page.” That is an extraordinary effort. But is it really words on a page that God wants us to remember? Too often, I hear people who quote words from sacred scriptures, yet they live as if they possess no knowledge of the meaning. What was it that the Spirit would call to memory? He does not want us to forget His judgments. God does not want us to forget His Word. We also are not to forget His miracles and doings. These are the fundamental points which He would call to our memory. We must do our best to commit His teaching to memory, yet the Spirit, through conviction, will not let us forget our duties and obligations to God and to others. Again, from Josh Foer’s book about com-

peting in the world memory competition, “A trained memory was the key to cultivating judgement and citizenship. What one memorized shaped one’s character. Memory training was seen as a form of character building. Oral poetry was a massive repository of useful knowledge, a sort of encyclopedia of ethics, politics, history and technology which each citizen was required to learn as the core of his educational equipment.” Over the next week, the Church will celebrate the Feast of Pentecost. The Feast, also known as the Feast of Weeks, calls to memory the fulfillment of the promise made by Jesus to His disciples. Much like the memory of old, the Spirit calls to mind more than the information, but the application of who we are and what we must do. Your character is defined by what you remember. What mercy we have to have such great a reminder…I mean memory.

with Virginia state and local government agencies and as a result, Marine Corps Base Quantico’s first Joint Land Use Plan was created. “This plan guaranteed that the base’s growth and relations with the surrounding community were properly managed to ensure MCBQ’s top priority to operate accordingly. QACO’s environmental law attorneys were particularly responsible in the successful efforts behind JLUS implementation.” Rothlein said. While going through patent and trademark legal issues, QACO’s two intellectual property (IP) attorneys provided legal counsel to the USMC’s Trademark and Licensing Office. QACO relentlessly protected the Marine Corps interests by filing Letters of Protest and Petitions to cancel for dozens of U.S. trademark applications filed by third parties. As a result of their work, successful licensing of over 600 companies to sell USMC-themes products has returned nearly $8 million in royalty revenues. In relation to the patent and trademark matters, Associate Counsel of Trademarks Philip Greene won the Outstanding Achievement Award for Intellectual Property for his accomplishments in intellectual property legal matters. During all of these legal matters, QACO also upheld substantial ethics and standards of conduct during legal practice. QACO ethics counselors and paralegals reviewed and advised on over 4,000 confidential financial disclosure reports. When asked about what this meant for the future of MCBQ, Rothlein replied, “People will understand the significant work that we do. People will recognize that Quantico is not a quiet place, but a place where work gets done.”

Marine Corps Base Quantico firefighters conduct trench rescue training on May 28 to maintain proficiency on the skill�
On May 28, the Marine Corps Base Quantico Fire Department conducted a trench rescue training session at their training facility on the west side of base. Assistant Fire Chief Kevin Dickey said this was the third session conducted in a twoweek period so as to ensure the crews from the different shifts all had the chance to participate. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, 40 construction workers die in trench-related accidents each year. With the volume of building and road construction projects currently proceeding on base, trench rescue training is particularly relevant for the department. Trench rescue falls under the category of “heavy tactical rescue,” according to Dickey, because it requires special gear and

training. Dickey said the fire department conducts four types of HTR operations, and in addition to trench rescue, there is high-angle (such as a person stuck in a high place), vehicle and confined space rescue. Assistant Chief Dwayne Palermo cited several examples of tactical rescues from the last few years. He said firefighters rescued a worker at Camp Upshur who had fallen into a deep trench six years ago. In 2011, the department had to perform a high-angle rescue when an individual at the FBI Academy suffered a serious medical problem on the roof of a building during a training session. During construction at The Basic School a couple years ago a worker fell off scaffolding into the basement level, and the fire department had to rescue him as well. Palermo said the department also provides mutual aid to fire departments in the local community and assists with their tactical rescues. “These are high-risk, low-frequency operations,” Dickey said, given that the situations often put the rescuers at greater risk than the typical emergency calls they respond to, but they occur infrequently. The department conducts training on each of the four types of operations annually to maintain proficiency in the event that such an incident occurs. The training scenario on May 28 involved a victim (actually a training dummy) was lying unconscious at the bottom of a narrow trench, and the firefighters had to shore up the walls before getting him out. Dickey said the training mirrored a real-world scenario of a utility worker passing out or being buried below ground level while working on water pipes. Palermo said the type of soil in the training area is Class C soil, according to OSHA ratings, which means that it is of a loose, granular consistency that is not cohesive and is difficult to shore up during the training. Construction workers are most likely to need rescue when working in that type of soil. During the training, firefighters used sheeting at ground level to provide traction for the rescuers, shoring boards and braces in the trench, and ladders to access the bottom. Palermo added that the department could also be called on to perform a swiftwater rescue in times of flooding on base and will likely be conducting training on that later this summer. According to Palermo the training is necessary to familiarize the firefighters with and train them how to perform under such adverse conditions as the storms and recent flooding in the Midwest. On May 24, a firefighter in Oklahoma drowned after being swept away by floodwaters as he tried to rescue another firefighter who had fallen into the water, according to CBSNews.com. — Writer: ebaker@quanticosentryonline.com

www.quantico.marines.mil
On May 26, 229 midshipmen from the United States Naval Academy who are aspiring to be Marine Corps officers began the first of two summer Marine training sessions known as Leatherneck, which are held aboard Marine Corps Base Quantico. Throughout the four-week training session, they will be instructed by Marine officers who work at the Naval Academy in fire team and squad tactics, weapons handling, land navigation and other subjects, said Maj. Scott Beatty, a Naval Academy instructor and mentor. Beatty said that 140 midshipmen are expected to attend the second Leatherneck session of the summer, which will take place from June 21 to July 17. The midshipmen, who will be entering their senior or first-class year of school in the fall, are billeted primarily at Camp Upshur and conduct training at Upshur, The Basic School and OCS. They spend approximately four days per week in the field, according to Beatty. After spending two days checking in and taking care of administrative paperwork, they quickly commenced field training, heading first to the Leadership Reaction Course, according to Maj. Brett Bohne, the officer-in-charge of the first Leatherneck session (of two) of the summer. From there, they began land navigation instruction and took part in the Tarzan Assault Course, an elevated ropes course in a wooded training area. During a brief break in training, Mid-
shipman First Class Matthew Chavez of Houston shared his motivation for attending the course. “My father was a Marine,” Chavez said, “and I really like the warrior mentality and ethos of the Marines.” Chavez said he admires the camaraderie he has observed among Marines and is looking forward to the rest of training and getting a more in-depth idea of “what the Corps is about.” Midshipman First Class Kerrie Hands of Orient, New York, also shared her reasons for considering the Corps. She said she has wanted to join the Marine Corps since ninth grade, when she joined the Junior ROTC program at her high school. The program afforded her the opportunity to meet “a lot of Marines” she looks up to, and she appreciates the small-unit leadership concept. Both Chavez and Hands anticipated that peer leadership would be the biggest challenge of the four-week program for them, given that they and their peers have all been training as leaders for over three years, and exerting authority over their peers could be a challenge. When the students return to campus in the fall after a brief period of summer leave, those who still want to pursue careers as Marine Corps officers will be evaluated by the Marine officer service selection board. According to Beatty, 268 Marine Corps officers were commissioned at USNA in 2015, with a similar number expected in 2016 and 375-400 midshipmen interested in applying.

Adrian Talley, principal deputy director of DoDEA presented Hansen with the award during a spirit assembly celebrating seven weeks of classes at the newly combined elementary school. “I think without a doubt, she represented what we were looking for as a teacher. She was expanding the horizons for her children. I think she is an outstanding teacher and we all need her energy and her passion.” Full of emotion, Hansen, 47, says she feels humbled to receive the award. “I genuinely love what I do. I wake up every morning excited to go to work and I try to spread that with my peers and be that catalyst of change especially when people are walking around overwhelmed because teaching is such a hard job,” Hansen said. “I try to really be that spark to remind people, hey we are here for the kids and we have to give it our all.” The extensive application process for the award began in Nov. 2014. Teachers may be nominated by students, teachers, parents, colleagues or community members and go through several levels of reviews and selections from a DoDEA panel. Fourteen teachers, including Hansen, were selected as district teacher of the year. Each of the district teachers may apply for the ultimate DoDEA Teacher of the Year award. Hansen was chosen out of two other finalists. “Since the beginning of her teaching career she has always been a force to be reckoned with,” her daughter, Victoria Hansen, said. Hansen has taught for the past 16 years at various Quantico elementary schools. “My husband is retired Army and I thought that was my way of contributing was to work with military children,” she said. Hansen focuses on hands-on learning in her STEM classes where she facilitates lessons, but gives students control. “She brings the learning to life for the kids,” Tracey Fairfax, assistant principal at Crossroads Elementary School said. “She is very creative with them. There are no limits where she says I’ve done all I can. No, she always pulls another trick out of her hat. No child gets left behind in her class. She never quits…she is a lifelong learner herself and that’s probably her greatest trait.” As the DoDEA Teacher of the Year she will attend several conferences, have the opportunity to meet the President at the White House, go to space camp and more. Hansen will continue to teach at Crossroads Elementary. — Writer: cbrown@quanticosentryonline.com

Run Amuck Offers Greater Mud-Covered Adventure on June 13 Marine Corps Marathon
New course & wild obstacles call for ‘filthy fun’ on Marine Corps Base Quantico Mini Run Amuck 2.1 Miles
Run Amuck — 4 Miles
www.quantico.marines.mil
Fast-becoming a rite of passage on Marine Corps Base Quantico each summer, runners wanting to get down and dirty and into the mud are quickly registering for Run Amuck, the Marine Corps Marathon’s (MCM) answer to raucous, roaring, running fun. This year’s event on Saturday, June 13 is currently open for registration at www.marinemarathon. com. The four-mile Run Amuck includes a new adventurous course and more than 20 imposing obstacles strategically placed along the steep hills, deep valleys and dense woods. The new Run Amuck includes larger mud pits and mud crawls, an extensive rope bridge, demanding log jam, climb up the A-frame and a precarious balance beam. The mudpacked journey includes tire dashes, ammo can relays, pipe crawls, a cargo net, hay bale jumps, a giant spider web, hanging obstacles, monkey bars and the exhilarating inflatable obstacle course in addition to the spirited Marine Corps-style PT exercises. All the filthy fun will be met with magnificent water blasts courtesy of the Quantico Fire Department. Run Amuck and its sister 2.1 mile dirt fest, Mini Run Amuck, await runners ready to combat all the daunting tasks set along Quantico’s rugged trails. As each participant prepares to battle the course, they can gear-up
at the new complimentary Camouflage paint and Run Amuck tattoo stations, located near the Run Amuck start. Registration for Run Amuck is $45, and Mini Run Amuck is just $25 to register. Run Amuck participants will be launched in separate waves beginning at 7 a.m., near the Lejeune Hall headquarters off Catlin Avenue. A fantastic post-event Run Amuck celebration includes a live concert by the rock band “Bruiser,” and a free beer from Michelob Ultra for all those age 21 and up. All Run Amuck and Mini Run Amuck participants will receive a technical T-shirt, commemorative bib and towel, which will come in handy following the muddy run. Media interested in Run Amuck or Mini Run Amuck should contact Tami Faram, MCM Public Relations Coordinator at 703432-1840 or tami.faram@usmc.mil.Both events are part of the MCM Event Series held from March through November. The 2015 MCM Event Series includes a series of road races and a triathlon occurring in Prince William County and on Marine Corps Base Quantico, VA.

COMMUNITY EVENTS Celebrate July 4 at Mount Vernon George Washington’s Mount Vernon salutes our first commander-in-chief with a dazzling display of made-for-daytime fireworks during its annual Independence Day event. Visitors will be treated to spectacular smoke fireworks in patriotic colors fired over the Potomac River at 1 p.m. Mount Vernon’s Independence Day event also includes an inspirational naturalization ceremony for 100 new citizens, military reenactments, a special wreathlaying ceremony, free birthday cake for all (while supplies last), and a visit from the “first� first couple, “General and Mrs. Washington.“ New This Year: Test your espionage skills with a new spy adventure app. Launching on July 4, the Agent 711: Revolutionary Spy Adventure App gives would-be “secret agents“ a chance to go undercover as members of General Washington's spy ring. After downloading the app to smartphones, players travel across the estate to complete eight challenges. In each step of the game, they try their hands at Revolutionary-era spycraft techniques such as ciphers, secret ink, hidden messages, and careful observation of the enemy. For details, visit mountvernon.org/spyadventure. Six hundred limited-edition aged George Washington Rye Whiskey 375 mL bottles will be available for purchase at 10 a.m., for $188 each. The aged George Washington Rye Whiskey was made at the reconstructed Distillery according to the original recipe. Aged on site in charred oak barrels for two years, Mount Vernon’s aged whiskey represents a break with tradition: George Washington himself never aged his own whiskey, sending it straight to market instead. The result is a whiskey that evokes
Washington’s spirit of creativity and enterprise, appealing to modern-day whiskey connoisseurs with its mellow flavor, rich color and pleasing appearance. July has always been a time of celebration at George Washington’s farm as it marks the beginning of the wheat harvest season. To celebrate Washington the farmer, field hands will kick-off the season on Independence Day with wheat-treading demonstrations at the George Washington: Pioneer Farmer site. Costumed staff will lead Mount Vernon’s horses as they tread wheat in the 16-sided barn. Visitors can witness Washington’s innovative treading process, learning firsthand how Washington separated grain from straw. An American Celebration at Mount Vernon takes place from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. All events are included in regular Estate admission: adults, $18; children ages 6-11, $9; and children under 5 are admitted free. The Agent 711: Revolutionary Spy Adventure App can be purchased from the iTunes App Store or Google Play for $2.99. Visit www.MountVernon.org for information.
Purple Heart golf tournament The Chapter 353, Military Order of the Purple Heart will host their annual Golf Classic June 19 at the Fort Belvoir Golf Course starting at 7 a.m. Tee-times beginning at 9 a.m. The event is a four-person, captain’s choice scramble format.

Almost anyone can run a marathon with the proper training according to Jeff Galloway, Olympian and marathon trainer. Galloway gave runners of all levels marathon advice and strategies at a clinic on May 28 at Little Hall. During the clinic, Galloway discussed how runners can manage fatigue, endurance, speed and nutrition using the 26.2 mile Marine Corps Marathon course as a reference. The free, public event, hosted by the Marine Corps Marathon office, brought enthusiastic runners eager to learn. For Tammie Mikulas, of Fredericksburg, running the Marine Corps Marathon has always been on her bucket list. The first audience member in attendance, she came to the running clinic for inspiration. “The Marine Corps Marathon will be my first marathon,” Mikulas said. “I’ve started to feel like I’ve bit off more than I can chew and I’m very familiar with his books and felt like maybe I could finish (the marathon) using his method.” Known as “America’s Coach,” Galloway, 69, has inspired runners of all levels through his Run-Walk-Run method. Developed by Galloway in 1973, the method teaches beginners when to take strategic walk breaks, reducing fatigue and muscle injuries while running long distances. “In teaching a beginning class back in 1974 I applied it serendipitously; I didn’t really know what I was doing. Everybody finished a 5K or 10K. I had never had that happen before. I’ve been redefining and refining it ever since,” Galloway said. Galloway encourages individuals to run a mile at their own pace to predict their own Run-Walk-Run formula to use when running long distances. For example, Galloway usually uses the 15 seconds of walking and 15 seconds of running method during a marathon. According to Galloway, the number one reason runners drop out of a race is because they use up all their resources at the start and don’t pace themselves. “Stay on pace, train yourself, go the distance in long runs and you will be the one who beats the bridge and beyond,” Galloway said. A form of interval training, Run-WalkRun, allows long distance runners of all levels to run marathons. “What we have done is reduce the injury rate down to almost zero and allowed everyone in our society to be able to train for a marathon. We have opened up this exhilaration and sense of accomplishment to people that never had a prayer if they ran non-stop,” Galloway said. Although there is no scientific data on how his specific methods work, there is substantial data to back up the method of walking during a marathon to relieve fatigued muscles allowing them to repair themselves. “These are tools 40 years in the making. I’ve heard back from well over 300,000 people that have used my method and told me how it works. I give advice on what I know works, based on that database,” Galloway said. Cheryl Engelbrecht, from Fairfax Station, attended the event and says Galloway’s method of interval walking has worked for her. As a Galloway running group participant, she ran a marathon in Gettysburg, using 30 seconds of running, 30 seconds
of walking and dropped her time from a previous Marine Corps Marathon down by 18 minutes. “Using Jeff Galloway’s method saves me. I never hit the wall,” Engelbrecht said. For Galloway, a Navy veteran, running is as much mental exercise as it is physical. He stays in shape by running one marathon a month with his wife. This summer, he will run his 200th marathon at Missoula in Montana on his 70th birthday. This year, Galloway will run the 40th annual Marine Corps Marathon Oct. 25 and be inducted into the Marine Corps Marathon Hall of Fame. http://www.jeffgalloway.com/
