The town appears empty; the streets quiet. THUMP! The wind slams a window against a wall somewhere in the distance.

Steadily, the rumble of a diesel engine begins to grow louder, echoing through the town as a patrol of Marines, with the ground combat element, Security Cooperation Task Force Africa Partnership Station 2012, pushes into the town to secure the embassy within, led by the massive armor-plated form of an Assault Amphibious Vehicle from AAV platoon.

CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! - Shots ring out through the seemingly empty town as the patrol begins to take fire. Marines yell, 'Contact Front, Contact Front!' and suddenly the quiet town bursts to life as Marines maneuver to safety behind buildings and AAVs to return fire at the enemy role-players that are taking refuge in the cluttered buildings of Combat Town, during the mechanized patrol training conducted aboard

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune May 21.

The lead AAV simulates opening fire on the enemies' location, allowing the Marines of rifle platoon to avoid clearing the building on foot and demonstrating one of the many benefits of using a mechanized patrol to conduct Military Operations on Urbanized Terrain.

“This has been the first time we've been able to do MOUT stuff with both platoons,” said Gunnery Sgt. Henry Salgado, AAV platoon sergeant, SCTF APS-12. “Our goal is for both of us to become as proficient at MOUT as we can be and build that unit cohesion, that bond, so we can work better together.”

The patrol continues to push forward, toward the embassy, as Marines on the ground work with the AAVs to strategically search and clear buildings. An AAV spots an enemy in a building; unable to assault the building the AAV radios a fireteam of Marines on the ground. The fireteam quickly moves to the location and flanks the enemy.

“It’s a learning experience since I've never done this sort of training before, but it's been pretty good,” Lance Cpl. Jared Hanson, motor transportation operator, rifle platoon, SCTF APS-12, said. “The AAVs are a really good resource.”

The patrol reaches its goal after ensuring the area around the embassy is clear of any enemy threats and the exercise comes

to its conclusion. The patrol then gathers together and discusses the good and bad actions taken, by the patrol as a whole as well as the Marines individually, during the exercise.

“It’s great working with the AAVs,” Staff Sgt. Jerry Babcock, communication chief, GCE, SCTF APS-12, said. “They really know what they’re doing, so it's been a good time.”

Marines and sailors with the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit went to the Underwater Egress Trainer beginning May 14. The training has been steadily gaining weight as the Marine Corps places more emphasis on crash survival since the 1999 crash of a CH-46D off the USNS Pecos at sea, resulting in the deaths of six Marines and one sailor. The

training is designed to help give individuals experience in escaping a crashed aircraft the only way it can, by simulating it with as much realism as possible.

“The more realistic the training, the better chances there are of survival,” said Robert Pitchford, site manager at the Combat Training Pool aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune.

The training begins in the classroom; a three-hour class familiarizing students with the nomenclature and application of the safety equipment they will be using, including the oxygen supply and life vest that every Marine wears during over-water helicopter flights. Parts of the lecture also went into the types of escape hatches aboard different aircraft that Marines could expect to embark upon, the dangers of decompression while on compressed oxygen and a variety of other subjects.

Next, the Marines headed out to the pool deck, to get their first look at the trainer itself, the module designed to simulate a helicopter hitting the water and flipping SEE UNDERWATER 6A

On May 20, on a gymnasium floor aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, Marines from II Marine Expeditionary Force gathered around a large map resembling part of North and South Carolina with signs representing different units and their movement.

The Marines aren’t assaulting or invading parts of the Carolinas. They are participating in Marine Expeditionary Force Exercise 12, a large-scale exercise for conventional combat operations. The rehearsal of concept drill or “ROC drill” explains and practices the movement of troops and logistics throughout the exercise.

“There’s a lot of hard work here but we haven’t done this in a while at this scale,” said Lt. Gen. John M. Paxton Jr., commanding general of II MEF. MEFEX 12 is a scenario-driven, simulation supported, staff-level exercise designed to train II MEF and its major subordinate commands and major subordinate elements.

“The purpose is to figure out our standard operating procedures for planning in general and how we do that as a MEF,” said Maj. Sean P. Dynan, the Operational SEE FORCE 4A

Letter to the editor

BY BETH COOK MARANVILLE

Memorial Day reflections I was the lastborn child in the Cook family of Winder, Ga. The baby in a series of four, three girls and one little blue-eyed boy.

My mother declared I was planned as long as she was on this earth and I let her think I believed her. Somehow though, with my oldest sister being 20 years old when I made my debut, my next sister 16 and my brother 14, I doubted the story. In fact, I teased mother she and daddy were surely rusty at best, which was the reason for my red hair.

The absolute shining star in our family though wasn’t the little redheaded surprise. It was the precious only son. Jimmy was his daddy’s namesake, the apple of his mother’s eye and the third born. From parents to grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and, of course, his sisters, we all felt the same way. Brother, as I always called him, was my hero.

He was handsome, fun, gentle, thoughtful, generous, kind to all of us and there wasn’t a conceited bone in his body. As far as I was concerned he hung the sun, the moon, the stars and any other constellations.

For the record, after God created my brother, He broke the mold. In my family’s eyes, and a lot of other noreason-to-be-partial eyes, brother was as close to perfect as a human being could be. I wouldn’t even blink twice if I ever saw him walking on water.

He was also the consummate athlete excelling in football, basketball, baseball, golf and tennis, with trophies and letters to prove it. Baseball, however, was his first love, and he chose it over every other sport.

In fact, when he graduated from high school he headed straight to college on a baseball scholarship.

The problem though was times in the United States weren’t so good.

It was the mid-1960s and there was a war going on. A war most Americans didn’t understand in a place we’d never heard of – Vietnam.

There was brother tucked away safely in southern Georgia playing college baseball, eating meals in the school cafeteria and staying up late studying living the normal college life.

Mother was happy and daddy was

proud. Their boy was their pride and joy who was bettering himself with a good education. He was safe, close enough to come home on the weekends and, thank the Lord, not involved in the war we heard Walter Cronkite chronicle during every night’s evening meal.

There was, however, a restlessness in my brother he couldn’t shake. From what I was told, he couldn’t reconcile the life he was living with the one so many of his peers were living – going to, and hopefully, coming home from a place most of us struggled to find on a map, a little peninsula in Southeast Asia.

I remembered waking up one night at age five and following brother outside. We sat on the back porch steps of our home in our small Georgia town and looked up at the stars. I thought it was just a special time alone with the big brother I loved so much.

The 19-year-old young man had more on his mind that night than the North Star and the Big Dipper, or even a college final. He was trying to chart the very course of his life.

Soon after our night of stargazing he did what so many other young Americans did at the time. Unbeknownst to mother and daddy he joined the Marine Corps.

Like many other families, this decision changed our lives as we knew them forever.

My brother did what he felt he had to do. He loved this country, he was proud to serve, and as far as I know, he never looked back and he never complained.

I, on the other hand, did complain. I wanted him home with me for my birthday parties, Easter baskets, Santa Claus and trick-or-treating. I also wanted him to teach me to play tennis.

Before he left, he bought a set of walkie-talkies for fun. At the naive age of five, I begged him to take one with him and leave the other with me so I could at least hear his voice everyday. It wasn’t fair, but it was a sacrifice he felt he had to make. He assured me we’d have really fun times together after the war was over.

“I’ll count your freckles again when I get back, Little Red,” he promised.

Off he went into the wild blue yon-

der, coming home on leave after each of his two tours of duty and then for Christmas in 1968. His plan was to return to Vietnam one final time, finish up the last six months of service with his platoon and then he’d be home for good.

He planned to earn the degree he started, buy a Dodge Barracuda and life would be back to normal. We’d all be together for holiday celebrations again happily ever after.

Ah, the best laid hopes and plans of a brave, much-loved, determined 22-year-old Marine.

My family found a medal among the belongings the Marines who processed his personal effects sent home.

The Marine Corps awarded it to him for bravery. He never showed it to anyone – except me.

I loved to hug his neck and told him I loved him thousands of times I’m sure, but I never got to say thank you. I didn’t really know the magnitude of what he’d given up for us.

Now I do.

I also know now my life wasn’t the only one changed, nor was my family’s. Countless thousands of others were touched by what happened in Vietnam, and World War I, World War II, the Cold War, the Korean War, the Bosnian War, the Gulf War, Iraq and Afghanistan; every war and conflict involving the sacrifice of the United States continuing through today.

It’s with a heart bursting with pride and gratitude I’d like to say to every one who serves and served our great nation, thank you. It is not in vain.

Thank you for the selfless surrender of time away from your family.

Thank you for the freedoms you allow us to enjoy everyday.

I don’t take it for granted, and I never want to miss an opportunity to let you know you aren’t forgotten. I remember your sacrifice, and I fully recognize our freedoms are not free but come with a great price.

To my brother and all the other brothers, uncles, sons, husbands, daddies, sisters, aunts, daughters, wives and mothers who serve in our military: from the bottom of my heart, I say thank you, and I celebrate you. God bless you and God bless America. Semper Fi.

Two Marines with Bulk Fuel Company, 8th Engineer Support Battalion, 2nd Marine Logistics Group prepare to extinguish a controlled-fuel fire during a training exercise aboard Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point May 22. The Marines received a brief on responsibilities as a firefighter, and classes on how to properly set up and assemble the fire proximity suit and how to use the different hoses and nozzles. The training culminated with troops extinguishing four different controlled-fuel fires.

T

housands upon thousands of gallons of fuel in one location, extreme weather conditions and high vehicle or aircraft traffic at a fueling point could be the recipe for disaster.

Marines with Bulk Fuel Company, 8th Engineer Support Battalion, 2nd Marine Logistics Group know a fuel fire can ignite at a moment’s notice resulting in loss of lives and equipment.

Therefore, they combined efforts with aircraft rescue and firefighting specialists from Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting Division, Headquarters and Headquarters Squadron, 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing to conduct a training exercise aboard Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point May 22.

“We are the first responders,”

said Staff Sgt. Carlos I. Castillo, the maintenance chief for Bulk Fuel Co. “We need to be able to contain the fire until the firefighters get to where we are.”

During the exercise, the Marines received a brief on responsibilities as a firefighter, classes on how to properly set up and assemble the fire proximity suit and how to use the different hoses and nozzles.

“We want to train our Marines on different aspects of their (job).

Not just the fuel side, but also the firefighting side of it too,” explained Sgt. Jacob C. Almaguer, a bulk fuel specialist with Bulk Fuel Co. “We want to familiarize them with the gear, so they know when the time comes, they are prepared to handle any situation.”

The training culminated with troops applying lessons learned and extinguishing four different controlled-fuel fires.

During the first three fires, the Marines used water pumped at

high pressures by two firefighting trucks. The Marines used a Twin Agent Unit to put out the last fire.

“We have a TAU in almost every fueling point and it puts out a combination of potassium bicarbonate and aqueous film forming foam to control a fire,” said Castillo. “The TAU gives us the capability to put out an (ordinary combustible fire) and (flammable liquid fire).”

Pfc. Riley J. Campbell, a bulk fuel specialist and one of the service members involved in the exercise, explained the importance of having this set of skills in his career field.

“I feel this training is very important, because we are the people there handling the fuel,” Campbell concluded. “I feel more comfortable knowing that I can do my job and if something happens, like a fire, I can extinguish it and save lives and equipment.”

Learning about PSTD June is Post-traumatic Stress Disorder awareness month. The military community is well aware and is continuously affected with this illness.

PTSD can affect anyone who has gone through a life-threatening event. The obvious situations are combat or military exposure, child sexual or physical abuse, terrorist attacks, sexual or physical assault, serious accidents, such as car wrecks or natural disasters, such as fire, tornado, hurricane, flood, or earthquake. After the event you feel scared, confused, or angry. If these feeling don’t go away or they become worse, you may have PTSD. These symptoms may disrupt your life, making it hard to continue your daily activities. All people with PTSD have lived through a traumatic event that caused them to fear for their lives, see horrible things and sometimes feel helpless. Strong emotions caused by the events create changes in the brain that may result in PTSD. How likely you are to develop PTSD depends on how intense the trauma was, how long it lasted, if you knew the victim, strength of your reaction, feeling of control of the event, or help and support after the event. Many people that develop PTSD get better with time, but one out of three continue to have symptoms.

Even if you continue having symptoms, treatment can help you cope. Your symptoms don’t have to interfere with your everyday activities, work and relationships.

The PTSD symptoms usually start soon after the traumatic event, but can manifest months and even years later. Sometimes they are triggered by an event, noise, smell or situation. The reaction can be minimum or can be explosive. People express their emotions in many different ways such as silence, crying, depression, anger and sometimes with violence. Suicide is a very prevalent issue with the military community, especially now with as many as 18 suicides by veterans daily. There are other attempts or gestures by some veterans daily. Sixty percent of women suicides are made up of female veterans. This has developed into a major health issue with veterans and is proving to be an arduous challenge for the Veteran Affairs mental health. To read more on this, go to VA Watchdog. If you or someone you know may be experiencing PTSD symptoms, TRICARE, VA, civilian behavior health specialists are available to provide help. If you need further information or referral assistance, please call VA Counseling Center at 577-1100, Naval Hospital Mental Health 450-4700, County VA Office 347-3309, the RAO at 451-0287, or the Veteran Crisis Line at 1-800273-TALK.

2nd Radio Battalion brings spouses aboard during Jane Wayne Day CPL. DANIEL WULZ II Marine Expeditionary Force

Marines of 2nd Radio Battalion and their spouses gathered aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune for Jane Wayne Day on the morning of May 19.

The wives and one husband of the 2nd Radio Battalion Marines dressed up in personal protective equipment at the event and some even came in their Marine’s MARPAT uniforms.

“It creates a good buzz for spouses,” said Lt. Col. Matt Rau, commanding officer, 2nd Radio Bn. “They talk to each other and it gives the battalion a sense of community and it gives spouses an insight into what their Marines do, which is great because husbands, wives and children want to be a part of it.”

After being served breakfast, the spouses were briefed on the events of the day which included going to the range in military vehicles to shoot weapons and experience Marine Corps Martial Arts.

“We get a chance to play with the toys Marines play with and do what they do,” said Milinda Rau, wife of Lt. Col. Rau and a trainer for

Marine Corps Family Team Building. “Marines talk in a completely different language and it’s nice to get out here and experience what they are talking about.”

Before driving to the range, the spouses were given instruction on how to use camouflage face paint and applied it to their faces, further preparing themselves for the tasks ahead.

After moving to the range in Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacements and 7-ton trucks, the spouses split into three groups.

One group got on the firing line to shoot the M-4 carbine while another took lessons from MCMAP instructors. The third group took turns riding in the Mobile Electronic Warfare Support System, a light armored vehicle used by the Marine Corps.

“There are a lot of new spouses here this year so they are experiencing all of this stuff for the first time,” explained Milinda Rau. “Last year I shot the M-4 carbine and the M-9 pistol and I hung the target on my wall at home because I was so proud... I begged for a grenade launcher this year, but they said no.”

While addressing each part of the operation, individual subordinate elements’ representatives explained their purpose and actions in the mission to the audience.

“The biggest part of today was people standing up and explaining what they were doing and everyone going; Okay I get it, I understand what you are doing and

I will support that,’” Dynan said.

Throughout the presentations, II MEF leaders, including Paxton, asked questions to better refine the standard operating procedures and the plan of action for the MEFEX 12.

“We did exactly what we wanted to, which was to talk through the phasing and sequencing of the operation,” said Paxton. “The second part of that was to capture potential friction points so that subordinate commanders and adjacent or higher headquarters could be identified and we did both.”

The exercise portion of MEFEX 12 has provided Marines a better idea of how to conduct conventional combat operations and accomplish their mission.

Lance Cpl. Branden G. Cooper with Security Cooperation Task Force Africa Partnership Station 2012 receives familiarization training on a variety of foreign weapons systems aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune May 18. The training was designed to educate SCTF APS-12 Marines in order to effectively work with foreign host nations during their upcoming deployment.

Marines take up arms during foreign weapons training CPL. JOSHUA HINES Africa Partnership Station 2012

The Marines and sailors of Security Cooperation Task Force Africa Partnership Station 2012, got hands-on experience with several variants of the AK weapons series, during the foreign weapons training held aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune May 18.

This was the first chance for many of SCTF APS-12 Marines to see, and get their hands on any variant of the AK. The purpose behind the training was to familiarize them with the weapon systems by teaching them how to load, unload and conduct speed reloads as well as disassemble and reassemble the weapon systems.

“This is definitely a cool experience, some-

thing I’ve never done before,” said Lance Cpl. Sean Reilly, combat cargo Marine, ground combat element APS-12. “I really enjoyed it.”

Because many African soldiers are equipped with versions of the AK series, the training showcased a wide spectrum of AKs which included variations of the AK-47 assault rifle and RPK machine gun.

SCTF APS-12 intends to use the knowledge gained from the weapons training to better interact with the African forces as they train alongside each other during their upcoming partnership.

“Marines having the knowledge of these weapons, helps them gain rapport with their counterparts,” said Staff Sgt. Derrick Stanfield, command element APS-12.

Kentucky, Indiana treated to Division’s Own musical melodies CPL. MARCO MANCHA 2nd Marine Division

More than 40 members of the band travled to Kentucky and Indiana in support of the Kentucky Derby Festival and the 4th Marine Corps Recruiting District to perform in concerts and the Republic Bank Pegasus Parade.

The prestigious and influential sounds of the 2nd Marine Division Band graced the ears of tens of thousands of spectators recently during multiple events in select areas in Kentucky and Indiana.

While Kentucky Derby winners, I’ll Have Another and rider Mario Gutierrez, focused their efforts on taking this year’s race, the Marine musicians of 2nd Marine Division played their way into the hearts and minds of many Jeffersonville, Ind., residents during the Patriotic Concert at Jeffersonville High School, just 15 minutes from Churchill Downs. The school was treated to the delightful sounds of the Division’s Own and its renditions of “Cowboys,” “The Summer Wind,” “Rolling Thunder” and many more.

The Marines finished the concert

by recognizing members in the audience who served or are currently serving in the armed forces, playing each services’ official song.

“We got to treat many people to something they may never have seen before or been exposed to,” explained Staff Sgt. Christopher Dwyer, the enlisted conductor with the band. “I couldn’t be more proud of the Marines. The effort they put forth left a great impression on the citizens of Jeffersonville.”

The Marines walked around the auditorium for a few minutes after the concert and interacted with the grateful spectators before tearing down the stage. The band’s endless hours of practice and rehearsals paid dividends when many of the people in the audience thanked them and told them what a great job they did.

Their work wasn’t done yet. The following day, the brass ensemble took their musical talents to Kroger’s Fest-a-Ville on the Waterfront.

There the lively musicians let loose and showed the citizens and visitors of Louisville, Ky., a lighter side. They danced, sang, rocked and mingled with spectators as they performed several times throughout the

vicinity of the festival.

“We were there to show the public we can have a good time,” said Cpl. Evan Laderer. “I like the atmosphere.

I like the music we play and the atmosphere we create where you can just come out and have a good time.”

The saxophone player has been with the band since August 2010 and said his favorite part of being with the band is being able to touch people through the music and see it in their eyes.

The good times carried over into the following day’s performance at the Pegasus Parade in downtown Louisville, where the Marine band joined more than 20 bands, nine floats and 11 inflatables in celebration of the Kentucky Derby.

“It’s very patriotic!” exclaimed Staff Sgt. Mark Pellon, an assistant enlisted conductor with the band. “When we go out to these cities all over the country, all over the world, and we get that kind of result, we get such an electrifying feeling from the people and it feels great. I think that’s a wonderful thing and they feed it right back to us with their cheering, with their ‘Semper Fi’s’ yelling over the music, and it’s a good feeling.”

UNDERWATER FROM 1A over. The trainer looks like an amusement park ride; a metal cylinder with seats of varying types running down the inside walls, all suspended from a gantry crane mounted in the ceiling of the facility. The Marines and sailors familiarized themselves with the types of harnesses and escape hatches before practicing the escapes.

Marines put on their helmets, and with no small amount of trepidation, began the practical application portion of the training. Training begins with the details, the correct procedures for exiting an upside down seating position and breathing compressed oxygen, before combining these into one exercise all in the shallow end of the pool. Marines and sailors were buckled in a chair simulating hitting the water and rolling inverted, had to brace for impact, establish control over their position, blow and clear their regulators, find a window, eject the frame, unbuckle themselves and swim clear, all with a blindfold on.

“Slow is smooth, smooth is fast and trust in the equipment. The biggest mistake people make in the water is doing everything too fast and getting hurried,” said Pitchford.

After practicing the basics, the Marines were introduced in groups of five or six to the trainer, strapping in and doing a series of five drops. Marines practiced with no oxygen, with blindfolds, with flak jackets and rifles.

During the successive drops, Marines switched seats, to practice with each of the types of exits, simulating exits on CH-53s, CH-46s and MV-22s. Some Marines initially had problems adjusting to the idea of breathing compressed air while being suspended upside down, but most eventually made it through their hang-ups.

“It was new to me because I had never been underwater and upside down. It was unpleasant,” said Cpl. Calvin J. Eberhardt, a 26th MEU administrative clerk.

In the end, the Marines and sailors were certified to use the safety equipment and execute the emergency procedures. The egress training was one of many training opportunities and qualifications that MEU Marines and sailors must complete before and during their predeployment training for their upcoming float with the USS Kearsarge Amphibious Readiness Group. “We fly over water all the time, and there’s always the possibility of a crash,” said Gunnery Sgt. Melvin L. Livermon, 26th MEU administration chief. “I feel like it gave me the basics I need to survive.”

Marine retires with 2nd Marine Logistics Group after 34 years of service STAFF SGT. JUSTIN J. SHEMANSKI 2nd Marine Logistics Group

What began as a conversation with a high school friend more than 30 years ago resulted in nearly four decades of military service, that drew to a close in a ceremony in front of 2nd Marine Logistics Group Headquarters aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune May 23.

Col. Kenneth D. Enzor retired and relinquished his position as 2nd MLG’s chief of staff.

After a childhood colleague suggested the two, “join the Army and jump out of airplanes,” Enzor enlisted in the Army in 1974. He served as a rifleman and squad leader with 1st Ranger Battalion, 7th Infantry Regiment before electing to transition back into the civilian sector.

In 1982, Enzor graduated from Georgia Southern University with a bachelor’s

degree in political science and was commissioned as a second lieutenant later the same year as he re-entered the military as a Marine Corps officer.

Enzor served in nearly every clime and place over the course of his career with duty stations and command tours ranging from California to Japan to Oslo, Norway. He took on his final role within the 2nd MLG in October 2009.

“He is what I call today’s ‘Old Breed,’” said Maj. Gen. Michael G. Dana, the commanding general of 2nd MLG, after presenting Enzor with the Legion of Merit Medal.

He made note of the fact that Enzor joined the military in much different times.

As an unpopular war wound down in Vietnam, public support waned for U.S. troops, unlike today where military service is viewed as patriotic.

“He was an infantryman, a (noncom-

missioned officer) and a Marine officer, said Dana. “The biggest thing I can tell you about Ken Enzor is he can do anything.”

As he addressed the crowd gathered before him, a gracious Enzor thanked those who had been a part of his career, including his wife with whom he celebrated his 34th wedding anniversary in March.

After noting some of his best years of ser-

vice were as a sergeant and second lieutenant, he imparted a bit of wisdom to the junior ranks before the ceremony’s conclusion.

“There is a lot of pressure to attain that next rank and to be the next rank, and that’s important but enjoy being who you are,” said Enzor. “Be the best corporal, sergeant or lieutenant you can be and the rest will just happen.”

Cpl. Jonathan Weinkiper (right) practices judo with Juan “Tre” Ramos at the Mayfield Martial Arts Academy in Jacksonville, N.C., recently. Judo has become an increasingly popular activity amongst military families.

JESSIE HEATH Sports editor

T

he word “sport” is widely used to describe almost every physical activity.

From dancing to running and everything in between, “sport” is a wildly popular term to explain whatever physical activity is taking place at a specific time. While some sports boast large fan bases and gain worldwide recognition for their popularity, others are unique to a specific country or region. Some sports teach speed, while others focus on building strength. Some games can only be played with a team, but others require solitude and self-reliance.

For students at Mayfield’s Martial Arts Academy in Jacksonville, N.C.,

there is no other sport higher on the list of importance than judo. Studying under Sensei and U.S. Judo international coach E.L. Beshimentob Mayfield, the students of Mayfield’s Martial Arts Academy place a high value on a sport that has stood the test of time.

For the dependents of service members stationed aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, judo has always been more than a sport. It is a way of life – one that can be picked up and taken to any state and any country.

“No matter where I go with my mom and dad, my sister and I can take judo with us and there will be somebody to learn from close by,” said Juan “Tre” Ramos, a military child and student at Mayfield’s.

Rough seas, rough days

Challenges greet Memorial Day anglers

If you haven’t seen the red algae creeping toward the Crystal Coast shoreline, you’re not looking hard enough. This rusty steel wool-looking algae is taking over the North Carolina coastline.

Recently wrenched from the bottom of the ocean floor, this killer algae has broken off in the rough seas and taken over our beaches, sounds, inlets and bays, making fishing an almost impossible task.

Paired with the fact that Beryl is headed our way, the muddy waters that kept anglers at bay over Memorial Day, and with the worst rip cur-

rents the N.C. coast has seen in several years, there seems to be no relief in sight.

There was very little fishing activity to excite anglers over Memorial Day weekend, a source of frustration for many anglers who have grown weary of battling Mother Nature the last few weeks. Bumpy waters kept anglers from getting offshore and the combination of muddy water and algae stopped pier-fishers from catching anything worth bragging about.

Anglers who were able to find a good place to fish reported seeing a few bluefish along the surfline. The bluefish were chasing both real and artificial bait, but the bite was not consistent enough for most anglers to spend precious time laying in wait.

I’ve heard reports of flounder in the inlets, but have not seen any during my excursions. While live

bait have returned to the beaches for the timebeing, I’m not sure how long they will stay with the threat of Beryl leering over us. For the time being, anglers have seen plenty of tiger minnows, small shads and jumping mullet running along the surf in Bogue Inlet.

Save a few gray trout caught near the Morehead-Beaufort train trestle this past weekend, anglers could not hook any fish large enough to keep. I went with a crew to work the Beaufort Inlet area and only caught small sea bass, hogfish, tautog and a clearnose skate. While the company was good, our six-hour fishing trip only produced disappointing results.

While the piers are plagued by the red algae, there is little activity to report. Oceanana pier reported some Hatteras bluefish and hogfish over the Memorial Day weekend, however, they did not see any Spanish mackerel.

Bogue pier had some nicely-sized sheepshead bites when the water was clear, but after murky

waters and red algae moved in, there wasn’t much left. When bites were reeled in, the most common bait was sand fleas. A few hogfish, sand perch and sea mullet were also caught on Bogue pier over the weekend, along with plenty of red algae.

Seaview pier had several sea mullet reeled in, along with a few bluefish and one cobia.

The Surf City pier seemed to see the best Memorial Weekend catch, with large chopper bluefish, regular bluefish, a large black drum, small croakers and sea mullet.

However, they did not see a single Spanish or King mackerel.

Anglers along the coastline have their fingers crossed for a better tomorrow. Until then, they will keep hoping and searching for clear, algaefree waters.

Get Inspired by baseball

How one athlete’s act changed a life

Have you ever stepped out of your house and into the bright sunshine too quickly for your eyes to adjust? It’s a disorienting feeling to not be able to see clearly when the bright sunshine blinds you or a dimly lit room causes you to pause by the doorway while you gather your bearings. Luckily, the moment usually passes and most people are able to clearly and easily navigate their surroundings.

But, what if you couldn’t? What if your field of vision was limited permanently? What if a tragic turn of events left you blind? How would you know where to step or what you were holding? What would it take for somebody to come alongside you and inspire you to push past the uncertainty of not knowing your surroundings?

Sometimes all it takes is a baseball game.

When Andy Pettitte of the New York Yankees returned to baseball this season, it surprised many sports fans. After all, when he announced his return to the sport, he was already the owner of five World Series’ rings, at least three All-Star team appearances, 240 wins and more than 2,200 strikeouts. Was there actually anything left for him to do?

Apparently there was. Pettitte, for all his wins and success, had never knowingly inspired a blind child to play baseball.

Until now.

As Pettitte made his way back to the bullpen after warming up with teammates before a recent game, he paused by the stands and handed a young boy a baseball. Little did he know that he was starting a chain of events that would alter the life of the child who clutched the ball tightly in his hands.

The proud new owner of the ball had no idea what he was holding. Andy Fass was born with a disease that left him legally blind. Having no idea what he held in his hands, the little boy turned to his father after being handed the gift from Pettitte and asked what he was holding. His parents put the ball in their backpack and kept it until after the game, when they decided to ask Pettitte to sign it for them.

But, that wasn’t enough for Fass, whose parents were told their son would never be able to take part in sporting events, due to his illness.

Knowing he was the owner of a signed baseball, coveted by hundreds of fans, Fass decided to take his luck a step forward. He decided to learn to play baseball. Now, he is learning to play through his disability. Already a swimmer and a gymnast, Fass is adding baseball player to the list of activities he is tackling. And, it’s all thanks to Pettitte.

When I first read this story, it touched me for several reasons.

Having experienced an illness that damaged my site and having been in a position where I was very limited in what I was able to see, I can relate to the feeling of not always knowing what is happening.

The patient in me relates to Fass.

The athlete in me is reminded that sports have the power and ability to inspire those who enjoy playing and watching.

After every Olympics, there seems to be an increase in the number of people interested in sports like swimming, running and biking. Any time an underdog proves his or her strength, people flock around them. Seeking inspiration from athletes is part of life for many sports fans.

When it comes to inspiring people, nobody does it better than service members. Marines, sailors, soldiers and airmen are role models in their community. Their dedication comes across to everyone they meet.

Marines in their dress blues can strike awe in the hearts of children who watch them march by during parades. Recruiters inspire some teenagers to move toward a career in the military. The daily dedication and commitment of service members shows in the commitment of the families and friends who support them on a daily basis.

Since beginning my job aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, I have experienced countless moments of humility and inspiration from the Marines, sailors and families I have met at different events.

Ronald Gaskins’ persistence during a special needs baseball game reminded me that disabilities only disable us when we let them. Sgt. Jamel Herring’s inclusion in the U.S. Olympic boxing team served as a reminder that it takes dedication and commitment to make dreams come true. The strong season of the Lejeune High School men’s basketball team worked to help me remember that coaches and athletes can inspire each other to push harder and play better.

I wonder how many stories parallel Fass’s incredible journey.

They may not all be as dramatic as a blind child being inspired to play ball, but I know they exist.

The 2011 Children’s Fishing Tournament gets a large turnout, full of people having fun while catching fish. The free event will boast all fishing equipment participants need to enjoy the day.

Free kids fishing tournament planned LANCE CPL. SCOTT W. WHITING Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

Being the child of a service member can be a harsh reality to deal with.

For this reason, many organizations sponsor different events for children of all ages to help them forget about their very grown-up worries for a day and have some fun.

Step Up For Soldiers, a non-profit organization dedicated to serving America’s veterans, is hosting a free children’s fishing tournament at the fishing pier at Kure Beach, N.C., June 9. Children of veterans, active-duty or reserve service members from all military branches are welcome to attend the free event.

Jim Verdon, vice president of operations for SUFS, said the event is free and no one needs to bring any equipment.

“You can show up empty-handed, without a cent,” Verdon said. “Local companies are providing everything (fishers) need, from fishing bait to snacks throughout the day.”

This is the seventh year SUFS sponsored the event.

As many as approximately 300 children attended each year, and they all have a great time, according to Verdon.

“It’s a great opportunity

for the children to get out and have a good time,” said Verdon. “Many times, one of their parents is deployed. This is a great time for them to have a good day of fishing with their parent who is here and put their worries behind them.”

Food will be provided for everyone in attendance, and there will also be prizes for all the children who are pre-registered.

Pre-registration is necessary to be eligible to win a prize, but Verdon stressed no kid will be turned away.

Children can get pre-registered at any time before the day of the event.

“The goal is just to give the children a good day of fishing,” Verdon said. “There will be many volunteers there who will teach anyone how to fish.

It’s always a great opportunity to fish, or learn how to fish if some of the children don’t already know.

“We even taught adults in the past,” Verdon continued. “This is our seventh year putting on this event, so we’ve got this pretty much down to an art form by now.”

There is no age limit for children who can be a part of the fishing tournament.

Heroes Elementary School students prepare for biathlon, line dancing JESSIE HEATH Sports editor

Some elementary school students aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune are gearing up for their most challenging event to date.

From kindergartners to fifth graders, they are training hard day and night, preparing to make history.

These students aren’t just ordinary kids. They are kids with a purpose.

They are focused. They are driven. They are the biathletes of Heroes Elementary School.

For months, they have been working hard, training to take part in the first school-wide biathlon, which will be held tomorrow. With assistance from Heroes Elementary School physical education teachers Sunnie McCarthy and Jackie Wagner, the students have been learning life-long fitness skills to carry them through their teenage and adults years.

“We have been talking about life-long fitness skills all year,” said McCarthy. “We are trying to instill some easy-tofollow philosophies for life-long fitness into our kids lives.”

After talking about various sports and physical activities, including biathlons and triathlons, McCarthy began searching for a way students could participate and relate their own experiences to things they learned in the classroom. She didn’t have to search far.

“The first idea for this biathlon concept was the brainchild of Michael Phillips,” explained McCarthy. “It started with students at Berkley

Manor and then moved over to Bitz. We decided to bring it to Heroes Elementary School this year and give our kids the chance to get involved.”

Because Heroes Elementary School is a new school aboard MCB Camp Lejeune and is surrounded by continued construction as Heroes Manor is built, plans for the biathlon have been carefully laid out to ensure optimum safety for all participants and crowd members.

The miniature version of the biathlon will keep students in the safe zone around Heroes Elementary School, where construction of Heroes Manor will not affect the activities of the day. While McCarthy’s original hope for the event was to incorporate running, swimming and biking, construction around the school means a triathlon-style event will have to wait until next year.

“The Marines from PMO have been awesome and are going to help block off part of Barnett Way during the run,” said McCarthy. “We also have some volunteers from 2nd Dental Battalion who are going to come help, as well as Marines from Company D, 2 Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion. We put out a cry for help and the husband of one of our teachers answered it. There is no way we could make this happen without their willingness to help.”

Biathletes will begin the biathlon at 9 a.m.

Students at Heroes Elementary School will take part in a biathlon Friday. They will run a half-mile loop around the school before taking part in water activities stationed strategically throughout the biathlon course. Physical education teachers Sunnie McCarthy and Jackie Wagner hope the biathlon will help students associate life-long fitness skills with real-life sporting activities. will be required to run, jog or walk around the loop for the first time. After they have completed the first part of the biathlon, they may go around the loop as many times as they desire, taking part in the water-portion of the event.

Since a long-distance swim is out of the question for students, they will be given the opportunity to experience water in other ways. Equipped with two jumbo water slides and various other water stations with hoses and buckets, the water

portion of the event is sure to keep students participating in the biathlon.

“Of course, we want them to experience everything, so they have to go around the loop at least once before they can get wet,” said Wagner. “After that, they can go around as many times as they want and use the water stations, but they can’t stay at the water stations.

They have to keep moving.”

“We’re looking to motivate them with continual fitness,” added McCarthy. “Nobody will be hanging out at the water slides and not running or walking.”

To help their athletes prepare for the challenge ahead, McCarthy and Wagner have been helping them train during class and encouraging them to train with their families in the evenings and on weekends.

“We’ve been doing a lot of drilling to keep these kids sharp and ready for the event,” said Wagner. “We’ve also encouraged the parents to help their children train by taking a walk or a jog in the evenings with them. It helps keep the whole family up and active.”

The excitement of the students and teachers at Heroes Elementary School has been contagious from the start.

With the event so close, everybody is holding their breath, waiting for the day of fun to begin.

“The kids and teachers

all over the course so they will never be running alone. Of course, we would like to have parents participate with their children.”

Parent participation is something McCarthy and Wagner are hoping to see a lot of at the biathlon.

With so many parents involved in daily training activities aboard MCB Camp Lejeune, they hope families will seize the opportunity to experience an active event together.

“Our kids see their parents, especially their active-duty parents, taking part in training and exercise almost every day,” said McCarthy.

“Since we hope they’ve been training with their child, we hope they will also come out and participate in the biathlon with them.”

After the biathlon is complete, a school-wide picnic will take place on the basketball courts.

Parents have been given the option of bringing a picnic basket to share with their child or asking the school to provide a bagged lunch. While this is an opportunity for parents and children to enjoy time together in the school setting, it is also a time for students to showcase another example of the life-long fitness skills they have learned during the school year.

“After we eat, we’re going to turn on some music and there are going

are so excited to do this they can hardly stand it,” declared McCarthy. “It’s fun to see how excited they are for something that we’ve worked so hard on. We’re a new school and some of these kids have had a tough year with the bad weather we’ve had, so to be able to do something outside with them will be a lot of fun.”

Wagner says she is excited to see the younger kids “take part in the action.”

“All the students are Heroes Elementary School will be invited to participate in the biathlon,” said Wagner.

“We’re certainly not going to make anybody do anything they don’t want to, but they are all really excited and the younger ones can’t wait to start running.”

Since there will be so many young children on the biathlon course, kindergartners and first grade participants will be wearing brightly-colored wrist bands to help identify them as they take part in the events. The older students have been taught how to assist their younger peers and keep them safe on the course by looking out for them instead of running over them in their excitement.

“The older kids will be watching out for the little ones,” explained Wagner.

“They’ve been drilled and they know better than to plow straight over them.

We’ll also have parents and volunteers stationed

Families prepare to ‘Walk’ to Afghanistan LANCE CPL. PAUL PETERSON Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

It’s almost time to lace up the boots, tighten those walking shoes and head to Afghanistan. The C-bags can stay at home, but friends, families and youths are all invited to join at the Tarawa Terrace Youth Pavilion aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune for the Walk to Afghanistan Kick-off event at 3 p.m.

June 6.

“To kick off the event, participants will walk around the block one time (and) the children at Tarawa Terrace Youth Pavilion will continue to

walk towards their goal of 7,300 miles to Afghanistan,” said Ashley Henderson, assistant director at the Tarawa Terrace Youth Pavilion. “Many of the children’s parents are deployed to Afghanistan. We wanted to show our support at the Tarawa Terrace Youth Pavilion for our children and their families overseas.”

Already a bold, intrepid endeavor, the walk goes even further than the 7,300 miles needed to reach Afghanistan. The walk has an added educational bonus, noted Henderson. The event, which is the first walk to have a ribbon-cutting ceremony to kick off the event, both pays tribute to the service

JUDO FROM 1B Judo is both a sport and an artform, requiring a lot of time, patience, precision and dedication to master. It has a slow learning curve and students cannot skip skill sets or cut corners. Every movement builds on top of another one and sets the ground work for whatever will come after it.

A solitary activity, judo requires participants to become self-reliant. It is for this reason so many individuals are attracted to the athletic nature of judo.

“I like being reliant on myself,” explained James Krueger, a military dependent. “I like not having anybody else to blame except myself if I perform poorly. How I perform in the dojo is entirely up to me.”

When service members and their

members carrying out the mission in Afghanistan and educates the youth that participate.

One of the overall goals for the walk is to promote physical fitness and healthy lifestyles, said Henderson. On top of that, those involved will gain a greater appreciation for the distance traveled by their loved ones.

“It provides a sense of connection and excitement,” said Henderson.

“We also plan to have the children write to the military members deployed to Afghanistan.”

This is not the first time that the team at Tarawa Terrace and the military community ral-

families are faced with the challenges that accompany starting over in a new town after a permenant change of station, the universal appeal of judo comes in handy.

“Judo is like a family,” said Ramos’ mother. “anywhere in the world you go, You are likely to find a dojo. Almost any instructor can help you find a dojo in or close to your new town. When you move as frequently as some military families do, that is a really important thing to have. It helps keep life a little more consistent for our families and children.”

“Being inside the dojo encompasses the ability to do a solitary sport as a family,” agreed James Krueger’s father.

“We come in as a family. If one person struggles, everybody around them strug-

Cpl. Jonathan Weinkiper (right) practices a move with his Sensei, retired Sgt. Maj. E.L. Beshimentob Mayfield at Mayfield’s Martial Arts Academy in Jacksonville, N.C., recently. An increasing number of service members and military dependents are turning to judo, which they agree is a sport and skill set that can be taught and learned anywhere in the world.

lied for an epic journey.

Earlier, a walk ventured the 684-mile trek to Disney World, and the new adventure has upped the ante for the long haul to Afghanistan as the youth pavilion continues its support of youth fitness and health education.

“We love what we do and we love to support our military children and their families,” said Henderson. “We are teaching our children the importance of physical fitness and a healthy lifestyle, modeling this through our previous walk to Disney World and our new journey to Afghanistan.”

The event is open to anyone, and participants should arrive at 2:45 p.m.

June 6, to sign in and receive a pass so they can attend the festivities at the Tarawa Terrace Youth Pavilion. The ribboncutting ceremony and the initial walk start shortly after and end around 4 p.m., said Henderson.

Participants won’t walk alone. Active-duty service members are encouraged to support the event and are welcome to dress in the same uniform worn by their fellow service members in Afghanistan. In addition, the event’s leadership will join the crowd at the starting line for the ribbon cutting and the walk around the block.

This isn’t the last of the opportunities open to

gles. But, when somebody is struggling with a certain skill, everybody around helps them build on that skill. It’s the type of thing that is really one large family, no matter where life takes you.”

For families like the Ramos’ and the Kruegers, the family atmosphere and safe haven they have found in the judo community mirrors the close-knit military community.

“Being in a place like this, at Mayfield’s especially, is safe for us,” explained Krueger’s father. “The Mayfield’s have been in the Marine Corps community and they are always giving back to it. They’re the type of people who know the struggles that can come with military life. You can call them at 3 a.m. and they will pick up the phone and talk to you. That’s more than just judo. That’s the family aspect of what happens here.”

In addition to providing military dependents with an activity that can be sharpened anywhere in the world, judo provides solace to service members – a way to escape stress and stay calm in times of frustration.

Cpl. Jonathan Weinkiper has been practicing judo for several months and can already tell the difference it has made in his life. Learning under the direction of Mayfield has given him the opportunity to both improve his skill set and introduced him to a new confidant and role model.

“Sensei is a retired Marine and he knows where I have been and what I have seen,” said Weinkiper. “For me, he automatically earned my respect because he commands it. He’s taught me to calm down and relax.”

Working so closely under the guidance of a retired Marine, Weinkiper says the passion and love his teacher has for the Marine Corps has “rubbed off ” on him.

“He still loves the military and you can see it in everything he does,” declared Weinkiper. “That’s one of the reasons I like working with him so much. He’s really taught me a lot about judo and about life in the Marine Corps since I’ve been here.”

Since starting his training with Mayfield, Weinkiper has learned how to keep himself from getting too worked up when he gets bored.

“I’m the type of person who doesn’t do well when I’m sitting around at a desk or spending all my time at a computer,” explained Weinkiper. “When I work nights, coming to the dojo gives me a chance to clear my head and helps me get all my energy out so I can focus on my job.”

the area’s youth, added Henderson. The All American Summer Camp 2012 will kick off June 11 and run until August 24 as well.

“Our staff have been working very diligently, planning and preparing for an awesome summer camp experience,” said Henderson. “(We) would love for your children to join us on our summer adventure together.”

Families can register at Resource and Referral, located in the Tarawa Terrace II Child Development Center aboard MCB Camp Lejeune.

BIATHLON FROM 4B to be 600 or 700 kids on the basketball court, line dancing,” explained Wagner. “They’ve been doing different line dances all year. We want them show their parents what they’ve learned.”

“This has turned into a field day without the normal field day activities,” McCarthy admitted. “It’s going to be a lot of fun and we’re going to give them the chance to experience something different.”

Parents and families of Heroes Elementary School students are encouraged to stay for the dancing, where they can watch from their picnic spot or let their child teach them and join in on the fun.

“This whole event is something our school, our kids and our staff have never experienced before,” said McCarthy. “We’ve gotten tons of support from people like Dewanda Sholar, our principal, and John Stroup, our assistant principal.

They are both really excited about the dancing portion, as well as the biathlon.

“This is the type of thing that has been difficult to plan because of the logistics, but that is going to be really great once we get it going,” added McCarthy. “I can hardly wait.”

To participate in the events of the day, Heroes Elementary students will need to bring a change of clothes, sneakers, a towel and a plastic bag. Parents are also encourage to apply liberal amounts of sunscreen before sending their child to school.

Parents should let their child’s teacher know if they are planning to attend the biathlon and picnic.

Parents who want to take part in the event need to dress appropriately to walk, jog or run with their child. Those who want to cheer on the athletes from the sidelines need only bring something to sit in or on.

During the picnic, parents can sit in the grassy areas around the basketball courts, where they will be able to get a full view of the line dances their children have learned throughout the year.

“Let’s end this year on a positive note,” said Wagner. “We can’t wait to see this event get started.”

Marines with Battery K, 3rd Battalion, 10th Marine Regiment, fire off blank rounds during the Memorial Day 21-gun salute ceremony on W.P.T. Hill Field, in front of Building 1, aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune May 28.

CPL. DAMANY S. CPL S COLEMAN Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

For more than 150 years now, the last Monday of every May has been marked as Memorial Day. Service members who gave the ultimate sacrifice of past and present conflicts live on indefinitely through remembrance, on this day, regardless of their branch, where they fought or how long they served.

Aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, Marines with Battery K, 3rd battalion, 10th Marine Regiment, participated in a traditional 21-gun salute in observance of Memorial Day May 28.

A moment of silence was held in between each time the battery’s howitzers blazed, giving ample time to thank a fallen hero. Artillery units aboard the base also use the 21-gun salute to observe President’s Day and Independence Day.

“It’s to remember all of our brother and sisters who have fallen,” said 2nd Lt. Stephen Mulcahy, the Battery K, second platoon commander. “The 21-gun salute extends that moment of silence so everyone really has time to think about all the people who gave their lives for us and everyone that sacrificed something for our country in all branches.”

Capt. Roe Lemons, battery commander, said the battery held a blank fire rehearsal days before just to get the ‘kinks’ out of the ceremony.

“We’re honoring those who paid the ultimate price in all of the wars we have fought in since 1775,” said Lemons. “We wanted to make sure we do it right because the most important thing is to make sure it went right on game day.”

Sgt. Alvin Will, a section chief with the battery, said he has participated in a number of ceremonies

before, including one aboard Ma Mabefore rine Corps Headquarters Quantico, Va. “I’m excited to be able to do it again,” said Will. “I wish it was a bigger audience and that we could have done an ‘expend all remaining’ exercise, which would have been like fireworks, but everything went well and the people here seemed to enjoy the ceremony. I enjoyed it too.”

Lance Cpl. Ian Lahti, radio operator with the battalion, said he enjoys being a part of ceremonies in any way he can.

“It was pretty cool to be a part of any ceremony in the Marine Corps,” said Lahti. “It’s a lot of tradition and history involved, and it makes me feel like I’m a part of something much bigger. Being here for Memorial Day feels good and I’m glad I got the opportunity to honor all the people who came before us.”

Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association Environmental training helps Marines maintain visits Wounded Warrior Battalion-East high standards

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

A scruffy, long-haired, bearded man stood in front of a group of both physically and psychologically injured service members at Wounded Warrior Battalion-East aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune May 23.

The Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association visited with wounded warriors and showed their appreciation by providing donations and gift certificates from local businesses as part of Operation Devil Dog, an annual charity event put on by the CVMA. The association, which is a group of combat veterans from all branches of the Armed Forces, has a passion for motorcycles and a mission to support and defend the men, women and families of those who have defended the United States.

The original chapter was formed in 2001 and has since grown into a national organization with more than 7,000 members.

“Our focus is to help veteran care facilities provide a warm meal, clothing, shelter, and guidance, or simply to say thank you and welcome home,” said H. T. “Hooch” Huchi, NC CMVA15-4 commander who dedicated 25 years to the Marine Corps and served two tours in Afghanistan.

It’s easy to forget, but it can be a Marines best friend and sometimes it needs protecting too. That is why Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune takes measures to ensure the maintenance and preservation of the land that comprises the base, itself a large reserve of natural resources and plethora of wildlife.

The base possesses its own environmental departments dedicated to meeting and upholding the standards set forth by military and government regulations. However, it also relies upon the Marines that use its facilities to guard the integrity and safety of the area’s environment.

The Comprehensive Environmental Training and Education Program is one of the important arrows in the base’s green quiver, training personnel to protect the base’s environmental wealth.

“There are a lot of requirements that you have to meet, and the education program lets Marines know what those requirements are,” said Ken Humes, the head of the environmental assessment section aboard MCB Camp Lejeune.

“Marines are seeing the green side of things now. When you realize that you are far from supply routes, you need to SEE ENVIRONMENTAL 2C

Latin music blared from speakers at the main entrance of the Marine Corps Exchange.

Customers jumped into the fitness class to follow salsa, samba, merengue, and belly-dancing choreography in a high-energy Zumba class.

Patrons were able to do more than shop last week at the MCX aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune. With kickboxing, Zumba classes and masseuses throughout the exchange patrons found opportunities to take care of their bodies as well, during the Health and Fitness Week held May 21 through 25.

Health and Fitness Week was part of a Marine Corps-wide promotion called Healthy Living that promoted healthy eating, hydration, exercises, sleeping and changes, such as smoking cessation.

While many exchanges held demonstrations or classes, MCB Camp Lejeune took extra steps to ensure that every section of the MCX and members of the Camp Lejeune community were included in the event.

“We love a good event here,” said Catherine Bruggeman, the main store manager of the MCX. “Because of our great relationship with other divisions we wanted to grab every division that has anything to do with health and fitness, bring them all together and give them a venue so that they can present what they do.”

Representatives from Semper Fit, Resilience Education, Naval Hospital Camp Lejeune, along with vendors who work with the MCX came to show patrons a number of ways to get healthy.

“People know the products we have in the store, but when we highlight them they realize this can be a one stop shop for

their health and fitness as well,” said Bruggeman.

The store displayed various options to a fit and healthy life.

Their demonstrations ranged from products like juicers, blenders and grills which taught patrons how the products can be used to create alternatives to processed and fast food.

The Lawn and Garden area even had a section devoted to organic gardening and alternatives to pesticide.

“Healthy living goes a lot farther than exercise,” said Bruggeman. “That’s a big part of it, but all of the other aspects of healthy living can be found within the store and (within the MCB Camp Lejeune community).”

Vendors jumped at the opportunity, sampling their fares and holding giveaways.

“We have lots and lots of foot traffic, and we’re not just about selling,” said Bruggeman. “We are about getting the word out.

This is a community store so

we want everyone to remember whenever there’s anything affecting the Marines or their families we want to give them the venue to bring it here so families can come to one location and find anything they need.”

Classes about stress management, hurricane preparedness, physical activity and sun safety were held throughout the week, and many tables held presentations on various topics and included pamphlets for patrons.

“Not only are people shopping, but they’ve gotten a lot of pamphlets,” said Bruggeman.

“I used to be with family team building so I know how important it is to give people classes on stress relief. I have children of my own in the military and my husband was military along with my father. I know how stressful life can be, and I want to make sure resources are available to families. I love seeing people picking up the information and I hope they sign up for

the classes.”

Personal trainers were at the MCX and Semper Fit held Zumba and kick-boxing classes along with a pilates and ballet class.

“The Semper Fit people are unbelievable,” said Bruggeman.

“Having them in the store was amazing.”

Through the classes and giveaways the MCX hopes give people a taste of all the help they can receive on their path to health and fitness.

“There are more resources on this base than people know,” said Bruggeman. “They know they can come here to shop, but I want them to know about the other resources in the base that helps take care of them and their families.”

Due to the success of the event, there is another scheduled for the fall.

MCCS offers massages, hypnosis to help relieve stress LANCE CPL. SCOTT W. WHITING

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

Many things in one’s life can cause stress, whether it be work, school, money, relationships or something else. Because of the constant amount of stressors surrounding many people, relief is necessary.

Massages can be beneficial in relieving stress, and Metamorphosis Massage and Hypnosis at the Area 2 Fitness Center is a choice many Marines aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune turn to.

Denise Martin, a massage therapist and hypnotherapist with Marine Corps Community Services, has offered massages for the last six years and specializes in three different types.

“I offer a Swedish massage, a therapeutic massage and a deep tissue massage,” said Martin. “Swedish is just a gentle massage for relaxation, therapeutic massages are a combination of deep tissue and Swedish massages, and the deep tissue massages are for working out any sore or tight spots.”

Another big thing Martin offers is hypnosis, and she has been practicing the discipline for about a year. Through hypnosis, she helps patrons with weight loss and smoking cessation.

“Hypnosis can help someone deal with any type of stress, anxiety or some sort of other problem,” said Martin. “When someone gets put into a trance, it actually changes the thinking in one’s brain and

subconscious mind. Instead of wanting to pick up a cigarette, for example, they might go and exercise.”

Martin begins a hypnosis appointment with an interview in order to pinpoint what issue the patron is struggling with.

Once the problem is determined, Martin will compose a script along with input from the customer and when the person is in a hypnotic state, the script is read back to them. Martin says this helps to re-program someone’s way of thinking in order to kick a bad habit.

“The first thing I do is the relaxation phase, and then I go into some deepening techniques, which helps them relax even more,” said Martin.

She described one’s mental state during

ENVIRONMENTAL FROM 1C become proficient at being self sufficient.”

But green isn’t just for overseas operations. An environmentally conscious attitude is actually a way to expand the sustainability and scope of the training aboard MCB Camp Lejeune as well, noted Dave Adkins, an environmental engineer and base CETEP coordinator. The education program is designed to help Marine units maintain safe and efficient environmental programs while meeting regulations and minimizing the impact on mission readiness.

The week-long program draws personnel from various commands and trains them in areas pertinent to environmental protection, such as hazardous material, regulations, base orders and overall environmental awareness. Armed with the courses knowledge, the participants return and help units meet their specific needs.

The combined efforts of educational programs and the base’s environmental departments have helped many Marines protect the environment and preserve and expand their training areas at the same time. This included incidents where the expansion of a training area would have otherwise encroached upon endangered species.

“We were able use land we had available for a purpose that was very meaningful to our Marines and still protect the environment,” said Adkins. “That is something that Marines might not have always been involved in because they are war fighters. We were able to support them in that way, so Marines and the environment go hand in hand.”

With more than 1,000 personnel trained in CETEP classes each year and numerous educational visits to units, the environmental reach of the program stretches to all areas of the base.

What is more, the combined efforts of CETEP and other environmental departments have proven key in other areas

as well. As Marines put boots on dirt on the base’s ranges and training areas, they are reminded of the next generation of Marines who will follow.

“The Marines understand now that when they leave a range, they don’t want to bury stuff or dump (anything) in the ground,” said Humes. “They take what they bring out with them and then the next unit that comes in has a clean, well functioning range. There’s no storm water erosion control that washes the range out, there’s no solid waste and there’s no hazardous materials. Marines can lay on the ground and fire their weapons without fear of being contaminated.”

It’s about continuing the mission and guarding the health of the base’s key resources: Marines and their training areas. If an area is contaminated, the Marines are deprived of that resource, said Adkins.

At the end of the day, CETEP and other preservation efforts on base do more than make environmental sense.

They make dollars and sense. MCB Camp Lejeune has spent more than $120 million cleaning up contaminated sites.

“The clean-up funds for contaminated sites come from our appropriated funds,” said Adkins. “When we’re spending dollars to clean up contaminated sites, we’re not spending dollars to train and support our Marines.”

Ranges and training grounds are some of the most important sites aboard MCB Camp Lejeune. They make it possible for Marines to hone their war fighter’s tool chest.

“We’re not the guys with a badge and a gun,” said Adkins. “We’re here to help you find a way to adapt what we do as a military to the environmental constraints that we can’t change. Marines have been able to expand their opportunities to train and have more facilities available to them with less overall impact to the environment.”

VETERANS FROM 1C lost a lot of friends and it’s hard. Sometimes you actually feel guilty because you’re still here and they’re not but doing this really helps. It’s therapeutic for us, and it’s therapeutic for the warriors.”

The association sponsors and participates in many motorcycle-related charity events each year, and as a non-profit organization, donates to various veteran care facilities and veteran charities.

“We focus on individuals,” said Huchi. “We do a lot of poker runs and rides for specific Marines. When we

can make an impact on an individual’s life, it’s huge.”

During their time at the battalion, the CVMA shared stories of their time in combat with the wounded warriors.

“There are counselors out there for these guys and that’s great,” said Huchi. “It’s well needed, but when you get veterans to sit around and talk to each other, it means a lot more. We just want them to know we care about them, we appreciate them and we’re doing things to try to help them out. Sometimes when you’re down, a hand shake and a pat on the back can make your day.”

the hypnosis as “fuzzy headed.” She said it is the stage between being fully awake and being asleep, and even though some people are wary of techniques involving hypnosis, there is nothing to worry about with her methods.

Martin clarified her hypnosis isn’t like what is shown on TV. Her patrons are still conscious and in control of their own bodies, they are just in a relaxed state of mind.

She is the only massage and hypnotherapist with MCCS at this time but Martin said she expects MCCS to employ two more therapists later this year.

Civil servant spends 35 years aboard Lejeune CPL. MIRANDA COLEMAN

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

She’s shy, soft-spoken, and a “breath of fresh air,” according to her co-workers, but she also holds one of the most important roles at the Naval Criminal Investigative Services Carolinas field office.

Terry Whaley, an evidence custodian aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, was recently recognized for dedicating 35 years of her life to being a civil service employee, 20 of which were with NCIS. Her career didn’t start with NCIS but at Naval Hospital Camp Lejeune in 1977. From there, Whaley moved on to NCIS to work for the administrative team and moved her way up the ranks to reach the position she now occupies.

As an evidence custodian, some of her responsibilities include the storage and disposal of evidence, maintaining chain of custody, monitoring the issuance and transfer of government property and military assets, appropriate handling and storing of government property throughout the facility and verifying the integrity of property records.

“In law enforcement, evidence custody is one of the main issues that could arise in the court of law,” said Benjamin Clements, an investigative computer specialist with NCISFO Carolinas. “She is very meticulous in making sure all the ‘I’s are dotted and the ‘T’s are crossed, and there’s an evidence record of the disposition of evidence at all times. It’s one of the things keeping us, as a command, very aware. She’s one of our checks and balances. It is one of the most important aspects of law enforcement.”

Currently, Whaley holds more than 1,800 pieces of evidence in which she is responsible for receiving, disseminating and thoroughly destroying.

“She is phenomenal, and without her we would be in serious trouble,” said Liz Santiago, field operation support officer with NCISFO Carolinas. “Her service to this office is very much needed and appreciated.”

While effectively managing and prioritizing a high volume of cases and forensic material is her main priority, her kind words and the smile lighting up every room is what makes the difference at NCIS. SEE SERVICE 3C

THE GLOBE, CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C.

Naval Hospital’s Lab Department now open Saturdays LANCE CPL. SCOTT W. WHITING

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

Getting to the hospital can be a challenge during the week. Working, watching young children and time crunching are all reasons why many people can’t fit medical needs into their daily schedule Monday through Friday. The Naval Hospital’s Laboratory Department aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune realized this and has modified its hours to better serve its patients.

The lab is slated to be open Saturdays 8 a.m. until noon and is requiring patients to schedule an appointment ahead of time at any time during the week, according to Lt. Cmdr. Elizabeth Grasmuck, the lab’s department head.

“People can’t just walk in,” Grasmuck added. “We don’t have enough manpower Saturdays for people to just walk in for lab work, but anyone can call during the week and request a time slot for our Saturday morning hours.”

The goal of opening the lab on the

weekend is to save time for patients who can’t wait in a long line or get to the hospital during the week because of family or work.

“We can get busy during certain times of the day,” said Grasmuck. “So if someone doesn’t have time to wait during the week, they can just go up to the front desk and schedule an appointment for Saturday or do it over the phone.”

There are only a few tests they will be able to perform on Saturdays. Grasmuck recommends calling ahead of time and explaining what kinds of tests is required to confirm eligibility for a Saturday appointment.

“The laboratory will be open for phlebotomy,” said Grasmuck. “This means we will be able to draw blood for lab tests.”

However, things like glucose testing, among other complex tests, will have to be done on a weekday.

To make a Saturday appointment or ask about eligibility, call 450-4622.

SERVICE FROM 2C “She is the most pleasant person here,” said Clements. “She keeps us in line, makes sure we do the right things, and she’s the person you want to be around just because of her demeanor. There are not enough things I could possibly say about her because she’s one of the best.”

Whaley said she plans on staying with NCIS for at least another five years to reach her 40-year mark and may even stay longer.

“It’s just such an exciting place to work,” she said. “There’s never a dull moment, and I’m always busy. I love working here.

I couldn’t imagine working anywhere else.”

Hundreds gather to remember fallen heroes AMY BINKLEY

Assistant managing editor

She sits alone on the grave, face downcast.

Though her thoughts are unheard, the cries of her heart echo as loud as thunder.

She has loved, and she has lost.

Her solace is found among the stars and stripes marking the final resting place of hundreds of brave warriors and knowing she is not alone in her mourning or her memories.

Service members, both past and present, their families and members of the community gathered to remember their fallen brothers during the annual Memorial Day ceremony at the Coastal Carolina State Veterans Cemetery in Jacksonville, N.C., Monday.

“We our own reasons ffor “W all ll have h coming today,” said Maj. Gen. Paul E. Lefebvre, commanding general of U.S. comm Marine Corps S Special Operations Command.

For the past ffour years, the service, hosted by the M Military Order of the Purple Heart Be Beirut Memorial Chapter

642, has given hundreds 642 h i h d d off people l the h chance to pay their respects. Dominated by the presence of military installations like Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune and Marine Corps Air Station New River, residents of Onslow County and the surrounding areas have felt the loss SEE MEMORIAL 7D

THE GLOBE, CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C.

Blockbuster satisfies audiences’ ‘Hunger’ for adventure Now playing at Camp Lejeune “THE HUNGER GAMES” (PG-13) “The Hunger Games” is an adventure fantasy adapted from the first book of the best-selling trilogy by Suzanne Collin.

The dystopian saga is set in a not-too-distant future where North America has collapsed and is weakened by drought, fire, famine and war.

In this post-apocalyptic future, there is Panem, a country divided into the Capitol and 12 Districts.

Every year, children between the ages of 8 and 18 must enter their names in a lottery. A boy and girl from each district are then selected to participate in the Hunger Games and forced to fight to the death in the nationally televised event in which Tributes must fight with one another until one survivor remains. The final victor wins a life free from want.

Jennifer Lawrence (“Winter’s Bone,” “Like Crazy”) stars as Katniss Everdeen, the 16-year-old heroine, who volunteers to take her younger sister’s place for the latest match.

Pitted against highly trained Tributes who have prepared for these games their entire lives, Katniss who is a hunter, not a killer, is forced to rely upon her sharp instincts as well as the mentorship of drunken, former victor Haymitch Abernathy, portrayed by Woody Harrelson (“The Messenger”).

Katniss must make impossible choices in the

arena that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.

Josh Hutcherson (“Red Dawn”) stars as Peeta Mellark, who is also chosen, and who has loved Katniss since childhood.

Liam Hemsworth (“The Last Song”) costars as Gale Hawthorne, Katniss’ best friend.

Elizabeth Banks (“Man on a Ledge”) portrays Effie Trinket, a publicity agent for the cruel Games.

Also starring is Stanley Tucci (“The Devil Wears Prada”) as Caesar Flickerman, Panem’s biggest TV personality; Wes Bentley (“Jonah Hex”) as Seneca Crane, the head Gamemaker; Don Sutherland (“The Eagle”) as President Snow; and Lenny Kravitz (“Precious”) as Cinna, Katniss’ personal stylist.

Director Gary Ross (“Seabiscuit,” “Pleasantville”) mastered the first installment of the spellbinding trilogy of books with plenty of suspense and action with a fight-to-thedeath reality-show approach and killing arena.

“The Hunger Games,” the most eagerly awaited movie of this year, lives up to the hype and does the book justice. It presents a good start to the epic trilogy – just watch the best seller come to life.

Now playing in Jacksonville “BATTLESHIP” (PG-13) “Battleship” is a science fiction action film inspired by the Hasbro’s classic naval combat game.

game was turned into an electrifying action movie about a lone surviving naval vessel and crew trying to repel an alien invasion.

“Battleship” is a board game turned “wannabe” blockbuster that already is a big hit overseas. The director apparently stated that he wanted to make a movie about the Navy. However, the movie looks a lot more like a disaster movie than a science fiction one, with a similar scenario that can be seen in the super hit series of “Transformers,” only this time the scenario is played out at sea.

All American Summer Camp to provide tons of fun LANCE CPL. JACKELINE M. PEREZ RIVERA

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

Some children waste their summer days wedged in the folds of their sofa watching television and playing on their computer, losing important skills they gained throughout the school year while missing out on socialization and fun activities.

Parents aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune have an opportunity to provide much more to their children than video games and cartoons through Marine Corps Community Services’ All American Summer School Age Camp.

“We’re going to provide a lot of fun, exciting and new opportunities with unique field trips for children in a very safe environment,” said Patrick Larkin the youth activities director with the Stone Street Youth Pavilion. “It’s going to be fun.”

Beginning June 11, children who have not yet entered 7th grade will be able to spend their days surrounded by peers and supervised by staff exploring the country right from MCB Camp Lejeune.

The camp theme this year, All American Summer, will explore the cultures and experiences of Americans by spending each week of the camp focused on a different region.

The weeks will conclude with a celebration where the children will dress up based on the theme and highlight what they learned.

“These children know the military culture,” said Larkin. “It can be different outside of every installation, so being aware of the cultures outside of their homes is important. It opens them to new cultures and experiences. It lets them know about the options out there.”

The camp will take place at the Stone Street Youth Pavilion aboard MCB Camp Lejeune and at the Tarawa Terrace Youth Pavilion in the housing community.

While activities and themes may differ, both places will offer the same amount of field trips.

“It’s the same quality program, just different activities,” said Maria Ready, assistant family care branch manager with Special Programs.

During the day camp the children will rotate through activities, including an art area where they will be able to partake in crafts and

rehearse, prepare and perform a theater production.

There will also be an area where the children will explore and experiment with the world of science by hatching chickens, and raising frogs and butterflies.

Other activities, such as tending to a full-service vegetable garden, will also be available for the children to participate.

The camp will present plenty of opportunities for physical activities and will have an open, unstructured playroom.

“When the weather’s nice, and we’re not under a heat advisory we always get them outside,” said Larkin. “Being able to play in the fresh air is very good for them.”

There are numerous and frequent field trips planned to locations such as WonderWorks in Myrtle Beach, S.C., Jungle Rapids in Wilmington, N.C., the North Carolina Aquarium, the Sea Turtle Hospital in Topsail Island, N.C. and the Marble Kids Museum in Raleigh, N.C. There are also local field trips planned to the movie theater, pools, rock climbing, kayaking and bowling.

Children will be separated into groups based on their grade and matched with staff members who work well with their age group. “(We) know the strengths each counselor has,” said Larkin. “We know which age groups they are happier and work better with. The staff relates very well with their age groups.”

The staff took ownership over the quality of the program and is very excited to see their plans come to fruition, Ready added.

Staff members are trained in cardiopulmonary resuscitation, first aid, pediatric medication administration, food safety, as well as other Children, Youth and Teen Program training.

The meals and snacks for the program will be prepared by the Officers’ Club and will meet nutritional guidelines from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Child and Adult Care Food Program.

“We’re proud to say we try to offer healthy fare for children,” said Ready.

Children will not be allowed to bring in outside food, and parents are asked to bring in a doctor’s note detailing any allergies a child may have, along with alternative

suggestions to properly modify what the child can eat. The same is requested for any other special needs a child has.

“It’s very important for parents to be upfront about any medical needs a child has so we can better serve the child,” said Ready. “If you let us know ahead of time we try to accommodate to the child’s needs.”

The camp opens at 5:45 a.m. and closes at 6 p.m. from Monday to Friday.

There are two options available for care, full-time care and daily care. The price for full-time care is determined based on income and starts at $52 per week.

Daily care must be scheduled ahead of time to ensure there is space available for the child and cost $30 per day.

Full-time campers will be provided with two camp shirts while daily campers can buy one for $8.

Camp shirts ensure participants are with trusted adults and the appropriate age group. They add an element of safety, making the campers easily identifiable to staff members during field trips and activities.

Larkin and Ready also ask children wear appropriate shoes, as the potential for injury increases if children wear flip-flops or other inappropriate footwear.

Parents are required to provide sunscreen or sun block for their campers along with any other topical medications or lotions, such as calamine.

“We can’t supply it because it is a type of medication,” said Ready.

“We’re relying on parents to notify us about the needs of the child.”

The program is first-come-first serve. Children of active-duty military have priority when registering, however children of Department of Defense and MCCS employees are welcome.

“Ask yourself, isn’t it an investment to enroll your child into a quality program like this?” said Ready. “They’re learning throughout the summer. Their curiosity is being piqued. They are going on trips, and they are going to be actively engaged. Instead of leaving your child at home just watching Stock photos TV and getting into mischief, this is Children of military families engaged in multiple an investment.” activities including kayaking, tug-of-war, camping and beach days during last year’s For more information call, 450summer camp held by Marine Corps Community 0553 or visit, mccslejeune.com/ Services aboard Marine Corps Base Camp cytp.

Chaplain’s Corner Obedience leads to God LT. CALVIN B. GARDNER SR.

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

In John’s Gospel we find these words, “Now there stood by the cross of Jesus, his mother and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene�(John 19:25). The context of this passage marks the final stage of Jesus fulfilling the purpose of his father’s will.

At this point, Peter had already denied him and the other disciples were nowhere to be found.

He already underwent several illegal trials, was beaten and spat upon and his clothes were gambled for. Now he hangs on a criminal’s cross between two thieves.

Do you notice who is mentioned in this passage? Now notice where they are standing – by the cross.

To this end, pastor and author Henry Blackaby notes there is no Christianity without a cross.

You cannot be a disciple of Jesus without taking up your cross. Crosses are painful and forever change your life, but sometimes the greatest cost will not be to you but to those you love.

You may be prepared to obey the Lord’s commands, whatever they are, because you’ve walked with him and know his way is best. Yet, there may be individuals close to you who have not related to Jesus in the same way and have not heard his voice as clearly.

Jesus understood his father’s will for him led to a cross. The cross would mean a painful death for Jesus, and it would also bring suffering to those closest to him. Because of the cross, Jesus’ mother would watch in agony as her son was publicly humiliated, tortured and murdered. Jesus’ aunt and close friends would witness his excruciating death. His disciples would be scattered in terror and confusion during what would be the longest, darkest night of their lives.

Because of Jesus’ obedience, there would also be a cross for each of his disciples.

Obedience to the Lord’s commands will affect others (Luke 14:26). Don’t refuse to obey what you know God is asking because you fear the cost to your family will be too great.

Beware lest you seek to prevent those you love from taking up the cross God has for them. Don’t ever try to protect those you love by disobeying God. The cost of disobedience is always far greater.

Rather, look to Jesus, your model, and see what it cost those around him because he was obedient to his father.

Summer starts with Flashback Friday CPL. DAMANY S. COLEMAN Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

Everyone knows that going to the beach at night is hardly ever about the water. For the nightlife at Onslow Beach, Marine Corps Community Services held the first Flashback Fridays event of the year to kick off the summer May 25, marking the event’s second year of existence.

Beach-goers danced, sang karaoke and enjoyed each other’s company at the Onslow Beach gazebo, while indulging themselves on free food and beverages.

They trickled in throughout the night, some staying for the entire time while others boogied with their friends, grabbed some grub and headed home.

Lloyd Karratti, assistant manager at Onslow Beach, said this was the summer kick-off Flashback Fridays event and one will be held one Friday a month, every month until September.

“Each one has a different theme,� said Karratti. “Next up is Top 40 songs night, classic rock night and finally oldies night.

Tonight’s event was beachmusic themed. This is the second year of Flashback Fridays and we’re trying to get more and more people to come to the beach at night to enjoy themselves.�

Cpl Bill mills, chief lifeguard at the beach, said he and another lifeguard were asked to participate in the Flashback Friday event.

Of course, they gladly accepted. “I think it was big success,� said Mills. “It was a much larger turnout then I thought, we had at least 80 people come though.�

Mills said the goal of each Flashback Fridays event is let everyone know that they don’t have to go off base to have a good time. “Here, you’re always well taken care of and you have good people that want to make sure you have a good time,� said Mills.

back Fridays event will be June 15th. That Saturday, we’ll have seaside cinema, but the movie hasn’t been decided on yet, then Sunday will be a Father’s Day brunch.�

Heroes still exist Oh my word with Amy Binkley

Assistant managing editor

I am proud to be an American.

I am also sorry for putting Lee Greenwood’s love ballad to the country in your head for the rest of the day.

You’ll have to excuse me for feeling patriotic, but after this weekend, I can’t help but gush.

Since the beginning of time, people have been telling stories. Tales of adventure, heartbreaking romances and comedic chronicles detail the lives of those who walked before us.

There may be exaggerations or strategically forgotten pieces of information, but narratives are vital to the human race.

If we allow them to, stories simultaneously remind us of our past while preparing us for our future.

Traditionally, Memorial Day is a time to reflect on the sacrifices and stories of the fallen men and women in uniform. Their legends inspire, and, if only for a brief moment, their lives are remembered.

My eyes were opened to a fascinating realization after attending the local

Memorial Day ceremony, and I hope they are never again veiled.

After embracing the inevitable fact the unofficial first day of summer would leave me sunburned and crispy, I took in my surroundings at the cemetery.

Boy Scout troops marked each tombstone with an A American flag, and I found myself overwhelmed at the staggering numbers.

I watched as people of all ages, from states and nations I never visited, filled the seats and prepared to pay their respects.

Out of the corner of my eye, someone caught my attention.

He was sitting in a wheelchair in the sweltering sun patiently waiting for the service to begin. It was obvious at first glance he was a veteran so I didn’t hesitate to approach him for a quote for my story.

What followed not only humbled me, but changed my perspective of the entire day.

He told me his story of how he had fought in Vietnam and seen atrocities no human should ever have to see. He made it home.

Many of his comrades did not.

He told me how anyone who was face to face with war doesn’t want to remember it once it is finished. It is not a matter of keeping secrets, but rather another way to protect those who didn’t have to walk into battle.

Though physically he may not be able to jump in front of speeding bullets anymore, he makes sure to

honor those who did and continues to do so. He does it because no one did it for him. “It’s important to let them know you care,� he said.

Since coming to work aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune two years ago, I count it a privilege to labor beside some of the bravest people walking the planet. Not only did they survive the breaking down and building up of boot camp, but they live with a constant knowledge that at some point they could be put in harm’s way to protect people they will never meet.

I think I’ve known it all along, but after my Memorial Day conversation, I am undoubtedly convinced.

I walk among heroes.

Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, “A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is brave five minutes longer.�

The heroes I see everyday are anything but ordinary.

Volunteering to lay down your life for strangers isn’t normal. Choosing to leave your family to protect others’ isn’t common. Going to countries most citizens can’t pronounce or find on a map isn’t routine.

No, heroes are extraordinary. America’s heroes are exceptionally so.

I am thankful for your sacrifice, for the freedoms you so willing protect.

Most of all, however, I am thankful for the stories you live every day because someday I will be able to tell my children real heroes do exist.

A woman visits her fallen service member at the Coastal Carolina State Veterans Cemetary in Jacksonville, N.C., Monday.

MEMORIAL FROM 1D of sons and daughters who have not returned home from the front lines. “The people (here) know that every freedom, every right we have is because of those veterans who died,� noted Chapter 642 Commander Verl Matthews. “They gave it all.�

For this community, Memorial Day is not just the beginning of summer, cookouts or another day off work. It is an opportunity to honor those who have run into battles to protect people they would never meet.

Veronica Ortiz Rivera arrived to the observance with several friends and family surrounding her. “My husband was killed in Afghanistan,� she said. “We want to honor and remember him and his sacrifice. It’s not just another day. It’s really nice, what they’re doing here.�

Although it is a solemn ceremony, several children were in attendance, standing close to their parents’ sides. “We want to perpetuate our duty to our nation and to instill that devotion to the country in our children,� explained Navy Lt. Cmdr. Patrick Joyner, 2nd Marine Division chaplain. “We think it’s important to honor those who have fought. Even though we can’t see these people, we still have to honor them and never forget.�

Carrying the tradition to the next generation, members of the Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps from Lejeune High School hoisted the colors to full mast, followed by the presentation of the colors by the Marine Corps Combat Service Support Schools’ color guard.

Lefebvre, the guest speaker for the service, addressed the crowd. “Although my words will never be adequate, it is my honor to be here today to remember the fallen,� he said.

He recounted his experience of a Memorial Day 47 years ago when he was invited to walk in a parade alongside veterans after winning an essay contest, and he wondered what he would add to his writings after more than 35 years in the Marine Corps. “(President John F. Kennedy) once said, ‘A nation reveals itself not only by the men it produces but also by the men it honors, the men it remembers,’� Lefebvre quoted. “Memorial Day reminds me of the

millions that have and continue to feel the pain and suffering of losing a service member. There are men who will go to dark places to protect (us). I don’t know what the future holds, but God bless our fallen.�

The tribute continued as retired Sgt. Maj. Joe Houle and Chapter 642 Adjutant John Cooney read the names of those lost since last Memorial Day. As the bell tolled for nearly 200 lives, including many from 2nd Marine Expeditionary Force, it was a stark reminder that liberty has a price. “I think it’s important to have events like this so people actually realize that freedom is not free,� commented three-time Purple Heart recipient and Chapter 642 Sergeantat-Arms, Staff Sgt. Daniel Stoy, 8th Marine Regiment. “People are out there protecting us on a daily basis. It helps us to honor those who didn’t return – the true heroes.�

Retired Master Sgt. Roy Martin watched the ceremony from the sidelines in his wheelchair. As a Vietnam veteran, he considers it his duty to attend events showing appreciation to the brave men and women in uniform since he understands what it’s like not to have it. “I can feel for these young Marines coming back from Afghanistan,� he explained. “We should uphold these traditions. This is one of the most important things we can do. We should uphold the lost and wounded because so many are forgotten. They need recognition.�

For every veteran remembered on Memorial Day, there are many more whose names are unknown. “A lot of what we do is because back during Vietnam, they didn’t get this,� noted Rosie Noel, retired gunnery sergeant and Junior Vice Cmdr. for Chapter 642. “We need to make sure they aren’t forgotten. It’s our way to remember those who are still on the tip of the spear.�

Wreaths were laid in remembrance of the fallen, and the MCCSSS firing detail presented the 21-Gun Salute. The crowd rose as the service concluded, and the sound of a trumpet playing “Taps� rang throughout the cemetery.

The familiar notes wordlessly conveyed the message of thanks for a community that will never forget and a nation that can never repay the debt owed to those who sacrificed everything.
