A quiet village in the southwestern deserts of Arizona is suddenly surrounded by the noise of a Combined Anti-Armor Team’s Humvees and three 7-ton trucks rolling around the outskirts of town Oct. 22.

The Humvees roll quickly into position to setup a cordon of the town, while the 7-tons stop to unload squads of Marines from 3rd Battalion, 6th Marines, 2nd Marine Division who sprint to the outskirts of town and attack hard and fast, clearing buildings searching for a high-valued individual suspected of hiding in a building.

Instead of sending in a large force to take and hold terrain, the mission of a raid is to attack to kill, capture or destroy a

specific person or target. Raids also allow for the small unit to operate in inhospitable terrain where, for example, the civilian population is friendly to the enemy and allows the unit to accomplish a limited objective and go away.

“A raid, generally speaking, is a focused, rapid attack with a planned egress, said 2nd Lt. Zack Devlin-Foltz, a platoon commander with. “It has a very limited objective, you do just one thing very quickly, in enemy territory, generally, and get out as quickly as you can.”

The scenario the company was given involved capturing an insurgent leader who was stirring up the population to wage guerilla warfare on American forces.

“Our task was to go in and either kill or, preferably, capture

Lt. Col. Sathdar Motamidi, who was a revolutionary guard commander,” said Devlin-Foltz.

“This was a fairly standardized training event, other companies have done it too. We put our own spin on it and made some adjustments to the mission.

Some companies do it as a company-sized element. We decided to do it in platoon-sized elements, because of the size of the (Military Operations in Urban Terrain) town we had to work with.”

The company conducted three days of MOUT training, prior to the culminated raid exercise. The Marines started with the basics, including room clearing and how to enter rooms in single and two man stacks – all of the rudimentary things an infantryman would learn at the School of Infantry.

“When the platoon conducted its attack, it all came together really well,” said Sgt. Walter Lee Osteen, III, a squad leader. “The platoon was very aggressive, and you could tell the past two days they worked really hard. The team leaders stepped up and took charge of their teams. In a MOUT environment, you’re so spread out, not like in a field or wooded environment where you can see everyone and keep control of them.”

Because of the limited view an urban environment presents to commanders in the field, small-unit leaders take charge of their Marines and communicate with their superiors to keep the information flowing.

“The platoon sergeant and I talked about it, and we didn’t really have a role in the

Marines and sailors aboard Camp Leatherneck, Afghanistan, gathered for a relief in place and transfer of authority ceremony Oct. 25.

After 10 months of service, Regimental Combat Team 6 will be returning home to Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, while Regimental Combat Team 7 takes over their area of operations in southwest Afghanistan.

RCT-6 was deployed to northern Helmand province and Nimruz province since December of 2011. In July of 2012 they also took over all of southern Helmand from RCT-5. RCT-7 is expected to stay for a year with all of Helmand province and Nimruz province as their area of operation.

“I would like to tell you how proud I am of the Marines of RCT-6,” said Col. John Shafer, commanding officer, RCT-6. “Every RCT headquarters that’s deployed in support of (Operation Enduring Freedom) since the beginning of the surge had daunting challenges.

“These Marines met all the challenges and then some,” he continued. “They not only came and faced a determined enemy and partnered with a determined force — their (Afghan National Security Forces) partners — but they did it in the midst of a surge recovery.”

The ANSF consist of all the military, police and security forces in Afghanistan. The surge recovery was the rapid redeployment of about SEE SEVENTH 7A

Student loans, learn about repayment options Many people have significant student-loan debt to repay, but there are repayment options many aren’t even aware of, especially those in the armed forces.

Early this month, the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau, Office of Service Member Affairs announced a study of the issue as well as a new online tool to help.

The study, “The Next Front? Student Loan Servicing and the Cost to our Men and Women in Uniform” advises troops often pay too much for a few reasons. Through negligence or deliberate malfeasance, lenders fail to obey laws designed to reduce financial obligations of troops, troops may choose the most expensive repayment options as a result of lack of knowledge and understanding or through lender deception, and troops are unaware of either their rights or of alternative means for repaying student loans.

Section 527 of the Service member Civil Relief Act (50 USC appendix 527) provides troops with the ability to reduce pre-service financial obligations, such as credit cards

or mortgages, to a 6 percent annual percentage rate effective the day of entry into the armed forces. Since the passage of the Higher Education Opportunity Act of 2008, the SCRA rate reduction provision applies to all pre-service student loans as well other financial obligations. Upon request, lenders are required to reduce the interest rate, unless they can prove in court the borrower’s military service did not materially affect his ability to pay.

Lenders apparently don’t like reducing interest and routinely violate the law. The CFPB reports some 15,000 instances wherein lenders failed to reduce mortgage interest.

There are several student loan repayment programs that borrowers should be aware of.

The Income Based Repayment Plan is one option where a qualifying borrower can reduce monthly payments based on income and family size.

Under the Public Service Loan Forgiveness a borrower serving in a qualified “public service” position, including active duty, will not have any debt remaining after 120 payments forgiven.

According to Annual Principal Reduction for Perkins Loans program, troops serving 365 consecutive days in a combat zone may have the principal of the loan reduced for each year of service.

Finally, the Military Deferment Program allows borrowers to delay the repayment of their loan during activeduty service although interest may continue to accrue during the deferral period.

The CFPB particularly noted deferment, or delay, of repayment can result in a much higher overall cost over the life of the loan. Borrowers are encouraged to visit the CFPB website and review the “Guide for Service Members with Student Loans,” which explains each of the programs in detail and provides a step-by-step guide to reviewing the various student-loan repayment options available. The site also features a “Student Debt Repayment Assistant” tool.

The report, as well as an introductory letter of Holly Petreaus, director of the Office of Service Member Affairs, can be found on the CFPB web page www.consumerfinance.gov.

Division Band will also perform during the ceremony.

While the Marine Corps is another year older, its members have not forgotten the spirit and ethos of the corps. The ceremony represents an opportunity for MCB Camp Lejeune to honor the Marine Corps’ past while looking forward to its future.

Marines with 10th Marine Regiment fire off a 155mm round to a target located by forward observers during Operation Rolling Thunder at Fort Bragg, N.C., Oct. 18.

FORT BRAGG, N.C.

Communication proves vital during Operation Rolling Thunder LANCE CPL. AUSTIN LONG 2nd Marine Division

O

n a cold, d i m l y lit night w i t h crickets chirping and cicadas singing in the background, Marines sat around talking about family, wives, girlfriends, anything to keep them awake and their minds off the cooling chill. Then all of a sudden a bursting noise pierced

the night. The gun chief cries out, “Fire mission” and other voices respond with, “Fire mission.”

The beginning call-toarms was repeated time and time again by artillery Marines with 10th Marine Regiment, at Army Base Fort Bragg, N.C., while conducting their bi-annual training during Operation Rolling Thunder Oct. 10-26.

During the operation the Marines practiced firing on designated targets, convoy movements, small

and large scale operating procedures, and basic fundamentals.

While the gun lines make the biggest impact, they aren’t the only ones who make a fire mission possible.

Staff Sgt. John Struve, a wire chief with 10th Marines, broke down each section of artillery by relating them to parts of the body. The fire direction center is the brain, controlling the actions of the gun line and deciding what information is im-

N AT I O N A L U N I V E R S I T Y ®

portant. Communication is the nerves of the brain, sending orders to the limbs on what to do and how to react. Before the FDC is able to decide what needs to be processed, it has to see with its eyes, the forward observers. To make sure what the eyes are seeing is accurate, the nerves, or survey teams, have to verify what the eyes are seeing is real.

The survey teams use known grid locations to ensure accuracy of rounds being called in by the forward observers.

The forward observers call in targets to the FDC. From there, the FDC decides what battery to use based on target size, location and type. The battery FDC then relays to the gun line which gun will shoot what type of round and size of charge to use.

Then it’s up to the gun crew to ensure accurate and precise rounds on target.

Capt. Stephen Wodrich, the battery commander, said Fort Bragg allows the regiment to operate in larger sizes, for both convoy movements and fire missions. It also offers more impact zones for the guns to fire on.

The field operation is broken down into phases: battery, battalion and regimental. Based on the phase, the deciding factor for fire missions and movements is dependent on what phase the regiment is in.

The key to making sure all of this is a smooth and timely transfer of information is up to the communication units.

“Without comm, you’re not talking,” said Struve.

Communication doesn’t stop at radio waves and computers. It’s also important it occurs between the different elements.

Gunnery Sgt. Joshua Brown, a battery gunnery sergeant, gave an example of how the different elements work together to gain maximized results from the two-week field operation.

“Last time we were at (Fort) Bragg, the FDC didn’t know what the gun chiefs were looking at on their monitors and the (gun) chiefs didn’t know what type of information the FDC received whenever deciding all the details of a fire mission,” said Brown. “So, the two (elements) gave each other a class on what type of information was being seen. This helped both sides (the FDC and gun chiefs) better understand what type of information to look for and provide to ensure accuracy and maximum effectiveness on targets.”

A battery covers its own internal logistics and security to a certain degree, said Brown. This helps the batteries continue their shoot and move effectively.

Operation Rolling Thunder isn’t only about pulling Marines away from Lejeune and making them train for 14 days in a new environment. It also builds camaraderie among all the Marines involved.

Cpl. Nicolas Wedig, a section chief with gun two, said going to the field brings the Marines closer, and allows them to know the strengths and weaknesses of each Marine.

This will benefit them whenever they deploy in the future and help things run more smoothly.

This was gun two’s first field operation together as a team. All the Marines are pulling together to become one, added Wedig. It brings training as close to a real deployment as possible by introducing a new environment for the Marines to adapt to, which causes them to fall back and rely on their fundamentals.

While out in the field, the Marines were visited by Brig. Gen. James Lukeman, the commanding general of 2nd Marine Division, Oct. 18.

Lukeman said, “Operation Rolling Thunder helps serve as a validation tool for the regiment. It also allows the regiment to work on changing the way batteries operate.

Bragg allows more room for movements and different types of fire missions, something the size of Lejeune does not.”

platoon of infantry Marines wait anxiously

in a hangar aboard Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, Ariz. Suddenly a group of pilots rush past and begin firing up the engines on their CH-53E Super Stallion

helicopters. The infantrymen break up into groups, load into the helicopters and are flown to a “hostile” landing zone within the city of Yuma Oct. 19.

The mission for this scenario is to evacuate U.S. civilians and non-combatants from a hostile environment.

Working with role players acting as noncombatants, Marines from Combat Logistics Battalion-13, 2nd Low Altitude Air Defense Battalion and a representative from the U.S. State Department, the Marines of 3rd Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division secured the landing zone and began organizing

the non-combatants.

“The CLB element was doing the actual processing and identifying of American citizens and NGO personnel who needed to be evacuated,” said Staff Sgt. Owen Wood, a platoon sergeant with 3rd Battalion, 6th Marines.

“We were securing the perimeter and set up an entry control point to make sure no bad guys got in.”

Even when the script for the training event called for some of the role players to panic or when the Marines came under fire from an imaginary enemy, the Marines relied on the skills and experiences they gained in training

and executed their assigned missions.

“We got off the bird, immediately pushed out and set up a hasty 360,” said Lance Cpl. Bobby Stokes, a fire team leader “Then we pushed out to the permanent security points and set up our designated marksman positions. My guys did great, they reported everything they saw (real or scripted). The communication was great.”

“It was pretty hectic at first, but once we were able to push out and establish those security points everything worked pretty well,” said Sgt. Martin Pallares, a squad leader.

In light of recent

events where American citizens and non-governmental organizations are working in increasingly dangerous places around the world, NEO training is increasing in relevance.

“The Marines did well,” said Wood. “Especially since most of them didn’t even know what a non- combatant evacuation operation really was before yesterday. They did well with a quick spin-up on training and applying the basic skills of an infantryman, which made the whole operation go pretty smoothly.”

He added with a smile, “It was successful without taking any casualties.”

hen an 8-year-old Tibetan boy fled his home country with his family for religious and cultural freedom, becoming a United States Marine was the last thing on his mind.

For Lance Cpl. Tashi Dhondup, a supply warehouseman with 2nd Battalion, 7th Marines, Regimental Combat Team 6, leaving his home of Lhasa, Tibet, and moving to northern India to practice his religion and learn about his culture was the first step on his journey of becoming a U.S. citizen. “When I was eight, my family ran away from Tibet because there is no freedom of religion, no freedom to learn our own language,� Dhondup said. “We moved to India so we could study our own language and learn our culture.�

After going to a boarding school in India until the eighth grade and learning Hindi, one of the most commonly spoken Indian languages, he left for the states in search of more opportunities for his family. “I was at school in India, and my mom told me we would have a better life in the United States,� Dhondup explained. “We moved to Jersey City, N.J.,

and after six months there, we moved to Connecticut. I’ve always wanted to serve in the military. I had a language teacher who taught me English. He was in the Army but told me to join the Marines because it was tougher and better.�

When Dhondup turned 18, he joined the Marine Corps to protect a country that was not yet his own. “I applied to become an American citizen last March, and when I was in (Enhanced Mojave Viper) training before our deployment, my citizenship paperwork was approved,�

Dhondup explained. “I took the oath for citizenship July 25, and it meant a lot to me. Because we ran from Tibet, if we had returned without citizenship, we would be put in prison. Now that I am an American, I can visit where I came from without fear, and I can return to my new home with no problems.�

Now as a citizen, when Dhondup returns home on leave, it is evident to his friends his experiences in life and in the Marine Corps gave him an increased maturity level. “I’m glad I’m an American now, but I do miss where I came from,� Dhondup said. “A lot of my friends complain about little things.

Dhondup’s work ethic is also evident to his fellow Marines. “He is the only supply warehouseman out here, and he was handpicked to deploy,� said Staff Sgt. Terrell Kelly, supply chief, 2nd Bn., 7th Marines. “He

is one of the hardest working Marines we have in our shop.

He will take an order and actually execute as if he were corporal or a sergeant. He became a Marine because he wanted to defend America, and to become a Marine and then to become a citizen is outstanding.�

SEVENTH FROM 1A 33,000 troops in Afghanistan in order to meet the presidential drawdown deadlines.

Other challenges faced by RCT-6 Shafer talked about were a reduction of 30-40 percent of troops in the area of operations and taking over another battle space. The addition of another battle space equaled 55,000 square kilometers RCT-6 was responsible for. This simultaneously doubled RCT-6’s responsibilities and reduced their personnel by nearly half. “What’s most notable to me is the way they did it, all with a smile on their face and an understanding their mission is about ensuring the Marines in the battalions and our coalition partners have what they need, when they need it,� he said. “And they’ve done that amazingly, absolutely amazingly.�

After Shafer’s speech, Col. Austin Renforth, commanding officer, Regimental Combat Team 7, spoke to them. “The Marines of Regimental Combat Team 7 would like to thank Col. John Shafer, Sgt. Maj. Deets and the rest of his team for a very professional and thorough turnover,� said Renforth. “You guys bent over backwards, and we couldn’t ask for anything better. “Along with our Afghan partners, (we) will endeavor to build not only on the successes of RCT-6 but of all the regimental combat teams before us,� added Renforth.

MOUT FROM 1A Cpl. Will Cox, a squad leader agreed. “I have excellent team leaders who work for me and make my job so much simpler. I have two really good squad leaders by my side to work with and my Marines in general are locked on.�

The Marines had two possible sites where intelligence said the target could be. By attacking both target locations at once, they were able to rapidly locate and capture the HVI and just as suddenly as they attacked, exfiltrate back to the trucks, with their prisoner spending less than 20 minutes inside the town. “My Marines, did great,� said Osteen. “They gave 100 percent every time, as tiring as it was. We were going pretty hard with training. They pushed really hard, and the company overall did great. It was definitely good to see the training pay off and see the Marines prepare for whatever is to come.�

essica Martinez took the hand of Kayla Musick and smiled encouragingly. “Come on,” Martinez said softly as they approached the finish line. “Hold my hand. We can do it.”

Martinez’s words of encouragement brought a smile to Musick’s face as the two friends pumped their arms, took a few deep breaths, and quickened their pace to the finish line. Rain poured around them and wind whipped the hoods off their ponchos, but they didn’t care. With grins plastered to their faces, they high-fived each other and celebrated their accomplishment. They just completed the Buddy Walk.

The first annual Buddy Walk carried on despite the storm threat looming over the Crystal Coast last weekend, and in unprecedented numbers participants showed up clad in rain gear to stand in Sandy’s wrath, making it clear neither rain nor wind could stop them from their mission of spreading awareness about Down syndrome.

The Buddy Walk, sponsored by the Down Syndrome Network of Onslow and Carteret Counties, was a one-mile, untimed walk to help raise awareness about Down syndrome in the community.

Seas flail as Sandy bears down on Atlantic

Eastern North Carolina natives are used to tropical storms and hurricanes barrelling toward their homes every summer and early autumn months. As Sandy began to inch her way up the east coast last weekend, I found myself answering a question I am frequently asked when bad weather bears down on the Crystal Coast. Do these hurricanes affect fishing?

The short answer is yes.

The physical effects of these storms include high winds, rough seas and rain, which churns dirty water when mixed with wind, and lowers the salinity of the ocean. The lowered salinity creates a mixture of chemicals, both natural and artificial. The high seas and rough water flattens holes and bars where anglers often find the best nearshore catches. Ocean runoff and debris from wind piles along the coast and wraps itself around piers, causing a headache

for anglers and beach-goers after the storm passes.

With Sandy, we had an extraordinarily large cyclone create large swells over an exceptionally long period. Unlike many tropical storms, Sandy was also the cause of the rapid cooling that left the Crystal Coast feeling more like New England than the Southeast.

As a result of the wind and rain, water temperatures at Bogue Pier dropped from 73 to 67 degrees Fahrenheit over the weekend. Bogue Sound dropped from 72 degrees to a season low of 60 degrees in just a few days.

The turbulence associated with dirty water and runoff quickly scattered the mobile fish and shrimp baits, important to attracting and holding fish, to deeper water along with the fish that feed on them. As storms like Sandy approached the coast, just prior to the actual maladies inflicted by the storm, fishing went through a surge period when anglers made frequent catches. The Crystal Coast saw such a surge last week. I remember having one of my best red drum fishing days immediately prior to hurricane Isabel in September of 2003, which subsequently moved up the coast with

devastating effects and even creating “Isabel Inlet” to our north on the Outer Banks.

After a major event like Sandy, recovery of the beaches and water quality is slow. In the aftermath of such storms, the North Carolina coast is normally met by a northeast wind from a cold front that calms the waters, allowing the sediment to settle, leading to the iconic clean and green waters the Crystal Coast is known for. As the sea calms and cleanses itself, the baitfish come back, along with the predators.

I know people often say there is also an effect of the low air pressure associated with these storms, however there is no scientific evidence for this.

Because of Sandy’s size and projected path, the cold front she leaves in her wake will not leave the North Carolina coast until the end of the week.

The prolonged cold front could cause unwanted effects for anglers as they return to the sea.

Hopefully bait and fish that saught shelter in the sounds and rivers will move more aggressively out of the internal waters to the surf.

Not just the predatory speckled trout, drum and flounder but the lowly spots will hopefully return to us in the wake of Sandy. Hopefully this year, the peak of the speckled trout season

will be back to the time around Thanksgiving, which is more usual than some of the past recent years where the bite was strong a month earlier.

Due to Sandy and the havoc she wreaked off the Crystal Coast, there isn’t much to report on recent fishing, and what I can report has little validity at this point. However, just prior to Sandy the trout fishing was still excellent.

A few locations to target trout after things return to fall-normal include the Haystacks, and the Neuse River creeks.

In addition, the trout fishing in the creeks along Bogue Sound, like Spooner’s, Gayle’s and Broad, should be in fall mode.

Other hot spots include Bear and Brown’s inlet, up in the White Oak River, the Brickyard, and also near the local Amphitheater.

I also heard of excellent catches of both trout and red drum on live shrimp at the rock jetty at Radio Island. I would also guess the trout should be in and hopefully thick at the Lookout Rock Jetty, and I also hope the Bogue Banks surf.

The Ask Dr. Bogus Fishing show can be heard every Monday morning at 7:30 on 107.1 FM and 1240 AM, and can be accessed on the Coastal Daybreak Facebook page at any time.

Giants among mere men

How teamwork won the World Series

When I was playing recreational league softball, I had one coach who preached teamwork like it was his job. At every practice and during every game, he drilled the concept of teamwork into our heads.

I promise there are still days when I wake up and hear him yelling at me from the third base line to trust my teammates to get the ball to me on time.

Even when we were opponents, playing against each other in our school leagues, he was standing at the fence, getting threatening looks from umpires as he yelled at us to look like we belonged on the field and trust our former teammates, who were at that point in time our opponents, to play just like they did in our recreational league. His reasoning was if we trusted them to play the same way we would recognize their weaknesses, use their strengths to the best of our advantage, and become a better athlete.

I used to think he was absolutely insane when he told us our recreational team would be better because we also played as opponents, but looking back I’m starting to realize what he meant.

It takes more than hard work to make a team. Becoming a winning team requires complete and total

unity, both in times of celebration as well as in the face of frustration and uncertainty.

Right now, nobody understands the meaning of teamwork better than the San Francisco Giants.

After completing a four-game sweep in the best-of-seven game showdown last week, they won their seventh series title in 130 years. And while it would be easy to praise one player or position for their lauded accomplishments this season, manager Bruce Bochy says the real method to their winning streak was teamwork.

“I think when you look at this club, the terms ‘teamwork,’ ‘team play,’ ‘play as a team’ – it’s used loosely, but these guys truly did,” Bochy told MLB.com. “They set aside their own agenda and asked what’s best for the club.”

Like everything else they did this season, the Giants were unwaveringly quiet and calm during their four-game winning streak. Unlike many teams in the Major League Baseball network, they displayed a surprising lack of ego as they took the field. They played as a unified team, and when a mistake was made, fingers were not pointed, nor were others quick to slander the teammate who messed up.

Even in the moments when the Giants deserved to be loud and proud, they sat back and exercised extreme caution, putting the true character of their team in the spotlight. As a team, they stood by and remained dignified as they defeated opponent after opponent.

Their October–game schedule showcased their flawless teamwork

to the very end. Without making obvious movements, it was clear the Giants knew how to work as a team as they subtly conveyed messages to one another with nonverbal cues on the field and in the dugout.

When members of their stating lineup spent time on the bench instead of the field, allowing somebody else to take part in the game, cameramen didn’t run to catch footage of them throwing gloves and bats around in an angry stupor.

Instead, Giants team members continued to make contributions to their team through advice and support, and staying engaged in the game even when they were taking a break.

With their second win in the last three years now under their belts, the Giants still have obstacles to overcome. They can continue to prove their manager right by working to remain a team instead of letting their new title go to their heads, or they can let discord and strife get the best of them. Somehow I don’t think option two is really an option in the Giants’ book.

MCCS’s youth sports services rank high LANCE CPL. JACKELINE PEREZ RIVERA Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

Marine Corps Community Services provide Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune’s children and teens with countless opportunities to learn and play.

Youth Sports is being recognized for their effort by the National Alli-

ance for Youth’s Sports.

NAYS awarded the group the Excellence in Youth Sports Award recently.

Youth Sports registers approximately 2,500 kids per year to participate in basketball, cheerleading, baseball, T-ball, softball, golf, football, flag football and soccer.

“Our program is an opportunity for children to gain life skills,” said Chris Alger, the sports

branch head of Semper Fit. “It raises their self esteem.”

The program focuses on fun rather than competition while giving children and parents an opportunity to meet peers.

“We have such a transient community,” said Jolyne Agramonte, the Sports Activities manager with Semper Fit Sports.

“This program helps

establish a network of parents and volunteers to influence kids in a positive way.”

Christopher Williams, the Youth Sports manager, said the program is a good opportunity for children to interact outside of the classroom.

In the last two years, major management changes brought a different perspective to the program. They increased

communication with parents and volunteers through e-mail, and added information and registration packages for all sports online. They also added training for volunteers, and added on-site staff to supervise and address any issues on the field.

“When you bring in new eyes you can see the holes (in the program) better,” said Agramonte.

More changes are coming. The base’s recent construction efforts will renovate and expand the Youth Sports office, and a new sports complex is being built on Stone Street.

However, it is not buildings and fields that make up Youth Sports.

The program is fueled by volunteers. More than 300 members of SEE SPORTS 7B

THE GLOBE, CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C.

Marine takes plunge into youth sports LANCE CPL. PAUL PETERSON

2nd Marine Logistics Group

The offensive and defensive lines clashed just shy of the 10-yard line and quickly melted into a confetti-like sea of red and green jerseys as the two teams battled for the first touchdown.

Each hit came with the hollow crack of pads and helmets familiar to the NFL, but the children knocking helmets weren’t of draft age just yet. It fell to Gunnery Sgt. Jesus M. Melendrez, the operations chief for Combat Logistics Regiment 25, 2nd Marine Logistics Group, to guide his team of young athletes, the Eagles, to a win at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune’s W.P.T. Hill Field Oct. 20.

They clinched the game in the second half, but the taste of victory is not what drove the him to sacrifice his weekend.

“For a lot of these kids, their dads are constantly being deployed,” said Melendrez. “It is every father’s dream to help his kids develop. I just take honor from being able to mentor these kids and help them as much as my own. It is what drives me to be a coach.”

He got his first taste of coaching at Camp Lejeune when he stepped in for one

of his son’s coaches.

The experience took place four years ago, but it ruined any illusion Melendez was a sideline participant. He later vowed to coach every team his three sons played for – regardless of the sport.

“It worked out pretty well, and I have learned a lot,” he said. “It provides a greater understanding of the games, and it adds to the passion for them as well.”

He currently coaches baseball, football and basketball. Every time one of his children picks up a new sport, he picks up the manual on how to coach it.

“I remember one time we started the (baseball) season with warm–ups and throwing the ball,” said Melendrez with a chuckle.

“I looked around and my facial expression went from happy to worried. I turned to my wife and my other coaches and said, ‘What did I get myself into?’”

He later led the baseball team through an undefeated season and saw the children grow along the way.

“I had one kid who had all the physical abilities of a superstar, but he was uncoordinated and couldn’t throw a baseball to save his life,” recalled Melendrez, who spent several weeks working with the boy and

his father. “It was amazing how much he progressed in a year. A lot of the times it just takes talking to the kids and keeping them focused.”

It is a grueling pace for the coach with many hats.

His responsibilities fill his schedule with the workload of a Marine during the day and a fresh set of practice drills every evening.

He turns to his family for support.

“I couldn’t do a lot of what I do without my wife,” he said. “She really helps me out through everything she does for the teams. Being the ‘Team Mom’ is every bit as hard as being the coach.”

His wife, Jackeline, helps organize events for the children and keeps Melendrez informed about the parents’ concerns and goals.

“Every kid wants to win,” said Melendrez. “To score a touchdown is the most amazing feeling in the world for an 8 to 10 year old. The moment when everybody is cheering for the kid lets him know he is part of the team and he is special.”

His personal goal is not to win, said Melendrez.

Being with his family, mentoring children and seeing them get their own moments in the spotlight drives him to take the field every day.

THE GLOBE, CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C.

WALK FROM 1B anybody could participate in without the necessity of physical training required for longer walks or races. Since its inaugural year, the Buddy Walk grew to more than 300 events nationwide, all aimed at educating communities about Down syndrome and the abilities and accomplishments of individuals with it.

“We have some amazing people out here today,” exclaimed Jen Wiser, the president of DSNOCC. “If you don’t have a friend with Down syndrome, make one before you leave here today.”

With the help of area sponsors, the first DSNOCC Buddy Walk went off without a hitch despite Hurricane Sandy looming off the coast.

Led by various community members with Down syndrome, the pre-walk festivities began with the presentation of colors from Lejeune High School’s JROTC, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance, which was recited by actress and Special Olympics gold medalist, Jessica Martinez. Special Olympics swimmer Donovan Mouton, recited the Down syndrome creed. Kayla Musick led walkers on the start of their one-mile journey.

The Buddy Walk featured its own Walk of Fame, a unique method through which to honor the stars of the Buddy Walk. Along the path, children and adults with Down syndrome were honored with their own board, listing their

various accomplishments.

Cheerleaders, movie stars, Olympic-caliber athletes and many others were featured on the Walk of Fame, and each featured star paused to admire their board before continuing down their road.

The most common chromosomal condition, Down syndrome affects one of every 691 children born per year. Despite facing challenges and obstacles as children, teens and young adults, persons with Down syndrome are highly intelligent and capable of participating in day-to-day activities.

While physical characteristics highlight persons with Down syndrome, the Buddy Walk strives to make it clear all affected persons are unique.

“Raising a child with Down syndrome is a challenge,” admitted Susan Getty, the grandmother of 14-month-old twin girl, both of whom were born with Down syndrome. “Raising two is even more difficult.

That’s why the support you get from an organization like DSNOCC is so great. There’s not enough awareness, and for many who are far from home in Jacksonville, this (organization) is a second family.”

For Renee Brown, the mother of the twins, the Buddy Walk and DSNOCC were essential. “People need to be more aware of the hard road these kids face,” said Brown. “That’s why DSNOCC is so special.

For a little while at every meeting, nobody is special or different. They are just kids. It’s a

As participants completed their one-mile loop around the Jacksonville Commons, they were greeted by cheering supporters.

In addition to using the walk to promote unity and spread awareness, DSNOCC invited vendors to join the festivities.

Robert Rankin, the vice president of operations for Lindley Habilitation, a service support families of people with special needs in the Triad, Triangle and Coastal regions, was on hand to talk to participants who, after completing the walk, were eager to learn more about Down syndrome.

“There is a certain level of awareness we need to raise about individuals in the community who have Down syndrome,” said Rankin.

“Programs like this help families network, and get community support and services involved. People should attend a meeting if they’re interested in getting involved with their local organization like DSNOCC. Attend a meeting – it’s the first step.”

SPORTS FROM 4B the Camp Lejeune community take time out of their schedule to assist the small, paid staff of Youth Sports. They coach the children and assist with administrative duties.

“Volunteers are the foundation of this program, without them we would never be able to make this program work,” said Alger. “It’s a community effort.

There are a lot of things people can do; it’s not just blowing a whistle.”

Volunteers come in many forms; they are parents of children, military retirees or young Marines looking to give back. They go through a screening process involving a national background check, training on coaching and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

“We also established a parent-advisory group, their purpose is to help guide our policy,” said Alger.

“They have major input because at the end of the day if we are not meeting what the community wants there is no purpose for the program.”

This is not the first of such award for Marine Corps Youth Sports.

Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point and Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms won the award in years past.

Service members who helped to lay the wreaths bow their heads during the benediction given during the Beirut Memorial Service Ceremony in Jacksonville, N.C., Oct. 23. Many people from different military branches, and even different countries were in attendance for the event to pay their respects to the service members who lost their lives in the Beirut bombing 29 years ago.

LANCE CPL. SCOTT W. WHITING Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

It was a quiet morning in Beirut, Lebanon. With the country divided during a civil war, Marines and other service members were present in the country conducting peacetime operations and took up headquarters at the Beirut International Airport. No one could have guessed on this morning at approximately 6:20 a.m., the Marine Corps and the United States military as a whole would experience one of its most devastating blows in recent history.

Oct. 23, 1983, 241 service members were killed in a bombing at the barracks in Beirut.

Every year, Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune and the Jacksonville, N.C., communities observe the tragedy through an event at the Beirut Memorial to honor the service members who lost their lives in the attack.

Enlisted and commissioned service members from the Marine Corps, Army and Navy, and even members of foreign militaries, packed the memorial to pay their respects at the 29th anniversary of what many call the original act of terrorism.

Ron Bower, a member of the Beirut Memorial advisory board, recalled the impact the attack had on the Marines back in the States.

“Ironically, I started working for the Marine Corps on the day of the attack,” he said. “I accepted a job offer at Camp Johnson and I remember seeing it on the news that morning.”

Bower said he loves history, which caused him to research what happened at Beirut to educate himself, and it led him to become involved with the memorial and the yearly ceremony.

“I was involved with this since the ground breaking,” Bower said.

“I developed the first ceremonial sequence for the event, and when

I retired in 1999, I became a permanent member of the advisory board.”

The ceremony itself was a big affair, drawing hundreds of service members from various areas together to pay tribute to their fallen Americans. The guest speaker for the ceremony was Brig. Gen. Thomas A. Gorry, commanding general of Marine Corps Installations East – MCB Camp Lejeune.

“This morning has both personal and professional significance for me,” said Gorry. “I am truly honored to be able to address it during this ceremony.

It was the deadliest single-day attack on Americans overseas since World War II, the deadliest single-day death toll in American history since the Tet Offensive during Vietnam, and the deadliest single-day in the Marine Corps since the battle of Iwo Jima.”

Gorry explained the Marines of the 24th Marine Expeditionary Force were there to secure peace

in Beirut. He said they were there to guard the Beirut airport and were true to the phrase etched into the wall of the memorial: “They came in peace.”

“They went to Lebanon to bring peace,” said Maj. Kemper Jones, the executive officer for 1st Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division, the battalion that was in Beirut during the bombing. “Many factions were fighting, and they went there to build peace and make it a safer place for people to live.”

The battalion’s leadership was present at the ceremony and was a part of the wreath-laying portion of the observance.

“The Marines of 1st Bn., 8th Marines are very proud to be a part of the heritage,” said Sgt. Maj. Manuel Colon, the battalion’s sergeant major. “They know what they represent as a part of the battalion, and they are proud of it.”

Jones said the ceremony is a great way to remember the Marines lost that day 29 years ago,

and it’s a way to show respect to them as well.

After Gorry spoke, Gunnery Sgt. Angela Mink sang two songs honoring the fallen service members. Once she finished singing, three wreaths were laid in front of the memorial. One was to honor the connection between the Jacksonville and MCB Camp Lejeune communities, one to pay respect to the Marines and sailors who died during the attack and were a part of the community, and one representing the Marines of 1st Bn., 8th Marines.

After the sobering ceremony, people in attendance were able to go up to the wall, many of whom searched for the name of a loved one they lost in the bombing.

“This has an unbelievable impact on the battalion and the community,” said Jones. “It’s part of what makes this such a special event. It pulls both the Marines and Jacksonville community together to share in the reaction of what happened.”

For new Marines, the experience of Marine Combat Training can be daunting. With more than half the training taking place in the field, the possibility of injury is high, but the ribbon on the future of medical care for students and instructors at MCT was cut Oct. 15.

With years of planning out of the way and only a

few months of construction, a new medical facility was opened on Camp Devil Dog in order to bridge the gap from Naval Hospital Camp Lejeune to the young Marines receiving the follow-on training.

Roughly 20,000 Marines travel through the MCT pipelines each year, with 1,200 in the field at any given time. In order to keep up with the high demand of SEE FACILITY 2C

In this day and age, steps are constantly implemented to reduce energy consumption any way possible. Conserving energy is a cost-effective way to reduce electric bills. Better yet, it makes energy and electricity cheaper for everyone if more is left to go around.

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune held the annual Energy Fair at the Marine Corps Exchange Oct. 19 to show examples of ways energy is currently saved both commercially and residentially.

“The Energy Fair is a way we can increase awareness across the base,” said Lt. j.g. Walter Anderson, assistant public works officer. “First off, we want to show them some of the different technologies out there as far as energy conservation. When most people hear it, they think ‘turn off your lights,’ but so many things can be done.

Secondly, we want to show people some of the projects going on around base.”

Vendors had booths set up at the entrance of the MCX displaying their company’s new ideas to make the world a greener place.

Erik Feus, a Lutron Electronics, Inc. representative present at the event, said his company specializes in home electric improvements. They developed LED lights with built-in speakers for homes with recessed lighting, and they also worked to create wireless electronics for everyday household objects.

“We have things from electric blinds to wireless stereo systems,” said Fues. “These items are wireless so they aren’t plugged in 24/7, which does use energy.”

Korean War veterans smile while visiting Lejeune Memorial Gardens in Jacksonville, N.C., Oct. 11. The veterans reunite annually and visit sites relating to their military experience. This year they visited Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune and Marine Corps Air Station New River.

M

arines who served with 3rd Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment during the Korean War visited Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune Oct. 11 for their annual reunion.

The Marines were invited to see today’s military including a Marine Corps Martial Arts Program and a military working dog demonstration. They visited Lejeune Memorial Gardens and Marine Corps Air Station New River where they saw an Osprey and shopped at the Marine Corps Exchange.

Many of the Marines were stationed aboard MCB Camp Lejeune, said John Corzan, a Korean War veteran who arranged the visit.

“We’re coming back to see our homes,” said Corzan. “It brings back old memories. We can see how the base changed, and we can see how

the Marines are doing.”

The Marines were last stationed here more than 60 years ago. The men said there is a world of difference between the Corps today and the one they served in. There were no lance corporals at the time; the rank was informally present before World War II and was permanently added in 1958. Other big changes noted by Corzan are Marine’s fitness levels. Corzan said today’s Marines are more physically fit than those he served with.

“It’s changed so much,” said Sandy Soufrine, a Korean War veteran. “I don’t recognize (the base).

(In comparison to 1950’s-era MCB Camp Lejeune) I wouldn’t know where I’m at.”

Fellow Korean War veteran Jack Dedrick said the only familiar sight was the movie theater.

The demonstrations seemed to be a hit with the veterans. The martial arts and working dogs showed them true hints of today’s Marine Corps.

“It was surprising,” said Corzan.

“In our times, we weren’t taught

martial arts. It’s surprising to see so many black belts. The dogs were awful smart and the trainers are superb.

The Marine Corps is doing a great job of keeping up with the times.”

The reunion was an opportunity for the veterans to spend time with and talk to the people who understand their experience best- other Korean War veterans.

The veterans’ families found these events to be a great benefit.

“You never see them talk about it unless they’re in a group,” said Rita Ibarra, the daughter of a veteran attending the reunion. “They don’t talk about it in their living room.”

Ibarra enjoyed the opportunity to learn about her father’s experiences through the reunion.

Throughout the war the veterans braved the icy temperatures of the Chosin Reservoir. Many lost friends and limbs to the war. The trip gave them an opportunity to remember the past, while seeing the Marine Corps’ present.

“We’re still Marines,” said Corzan. “We still love the Corps.”

It is federal law to wear a seat belt in a vehicle, but some parents do not realize this includes car seats for their children.

More than 4,000 children who weren’t properly restrained were killed between 2006 and 2010. With the help of numerous organizations aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, a reform is underway to reduce the number.

For the first time ever aboard the base, a week-long safety inspection is scheduled to ensure proper usage and application for child safety seats.

Members from the Provost Marshals Office, Base Safety, N.C. Safe Kids Buckle Up and Safe Kids Worldwide will be at the Marine Corps Exchange Nov. 5 to 8 conducting safety checks for any vehicles.

The service will be free of charge and advise on the correct instillation, age and weight appropriate as well as serviceability of safety seats.

In cases where safety seats need replacement, Marine Corps Community Services is offering a 20 percent discount at the MCX. The main goal of this safety checkpoint is to educate parents about the proper use of safety seats, said Ashley J. Harwood, accident investigator with PMO. “The national average is 80 percent for parents who do not install or properly use the safety seats,” said Harwood.

Aboard the base, not only are children at risk in an accident, but if an individual is caught with a child not properly restrained, they are held accountable.

“On base we average 90 percent of misused safety seats, and a citation will be issued if someone is caught,” said Matthew S. Brandow, accident investigator with PMO. The safety seats range from infant through eight years of age, as well as a minimum requirement of 80 pounds for three point seat belts. Brandow stated the standards are not enough to ensure the safety of young children.

“We teach best practice,” said Brandow. “We exceed what the standards say to maximize safety for young children.

A child can be eight years old but if they do not meet the 80-pound weight requirement, they should not be removed from the safety seat.”

Since 1975, thousands of children’s lives were saved through proper safety seat usage and aboard MCB Camp Lejeune, and a group effort is attempting to prevent the number from climbing.

HQSPTBn leaders attack sexual assault in comprehensive brief Leaders of Marine Corps Installations East-Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune’s Headquarters and Support Battalion organized a comprehensive Sexual Assault Prevention and Response training session Oct. 16 and 17 at the MCB Camp Lejeune Base Theater.

The leaders defined what entails sexual assault, its impact, statistics on the subject and gave examples of the types of environments where sexual assault can fester, along with other information for the Marines present.

Bardorf spoke of his commitment to

battling the problem head on and ensuring there is no “gray area” to it. He also detailed the importance of taking the training to heart and losing the “check-in-the-box” mentality, where training is viewed as an inconvenient requirement rather than an important weapon in the battle against sexual assault.

“We give you these tools, and we expect Marines to use them,” said Bardorf. “I expect you are taking the education back to the young Marines you lead. This is the change we have to start if we are going to be effective.”

Gunnery Sgt. Laura Bigley, a uniformed victim advocate with HQSPTBn, said the method of presentation introduced the Marines to key players in any response to

CONSERVATION FROM 1C Fues also had a five-watt light on display, which he said emits as much brightness as a traditional 60-watt light bulb does.

“Many commercial buildings had these installed for a few years now,” said Fues. “Now it’s becoming something people can put in their houses, and it is just another way to not use up unnecessary electricity.”

Another table showed the progress for the upcoming Wallace Creek Fitness Center. The fitness center is the first building aboard MCB Camp Lejeune to receive a platinum certification from Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, an international third-party program used to determine the efficiency of energy

savings, water usage, emissions reduction and other things to help improve the environment. LEED is regulated by the United States Green Building Council.

“The Wallace Creek Fitness Center is very well regulated in the way energy will be used when the building eventually opens,” said Antonio Uzcategui, assistant project manager with Suffolk Construction, the company building the fitness center.

The fair featured both technologies available for in-home use and things people can expect to see in the future around base, since many of the once-expensive energy-saving options are now becoming affordable for families and companies.

FACILITY FROM 1C medical personnel, a Navy corpsman is assigned to each company, but often times it is not enough.

The main objective for the facility is to provide medical care and to maintain the health of MCT instructors and students, said Petty Officer 1st Class Eddie F. Figueroalopez, an independent duty corpsman for the new facility.

Heat exhaustion and heat stroke are very common among the students treated at MCT, said Figueroalopez, but with the new facility, instead of the majority being sent to other facilities, 99 percent of the injuries can be treated on Camp Devil Dog. The majority of training during MCT takes place at Camp Devil Dog, and if a Marine or instructor is seriously injured, it used to be a long, hot and multi-mile trip back to the clinic, said Lt. Cmdr Daniel Clark, the department head for branch medical clinic aboard Camp Geiger.

“This facility is at least one and a half times larger than the old building and has all the state-of-the-art connectivity equipped,” said Clark. “It keeps us more connected to the hospital and branch clinic.”

The building allows corpsman and doctors to provide medical services on the spot at a much higher capacity compared to the wooden building with a single computer previously used, said Clark.

“It brings the standards we expect at the hospital out into the field,” said Clark.

With an average of 20 Marines per morning requiring medical attention during peak training periods, the new facility is staffed 24 hours a day, said Clark.

With injuries a fact of life during physically arduous times of combat training, Marines can now feel safer with MCT’s new medical facility.

sexual assault and let the Marines know their leadership’s commitment to ensuring a victim receives adequate support from the top down.

“The bottom line is the command will take care of victims as best as possible and simultaneously, so long as it’s an unrestricted report, will pursue all the facts involving each case and bring the perpetrator to justice,” said 1st Lt. Robert Collinsworth, a commanding officer in the battalion.

In 2010, 19,000 service members were sexually assaulted, said Bardorf. Approximately 2,900 of the assaults were reported.

“To put it in perspective, it is about the size of 2nd Marine Division, can you

imagine everybody in 2MARDIV being sexually assaulted? I can’t, but it’s what’s happening,” said Bardorf.

Bigley said the training can play a huge part in any of the Marines’ lives.

“You never know if you are going to be a victim or if somebody you know is going to be a victim,” said Bigley. “It’s important to know how to help.”

The battalion’s leaders, its uniformed victim advocates, the base’s sexual assault response coordinator and a Naval Criminal Investigative Service agent spoke at the brief.

“Sexual assault is abhorrent,” said Bardorf. “It cannot even be fathomed by those who truly believe in honor, courage and commitment.”

ear is not fueled by what the eyes can see, but rather by what the mind imagines in the

dark.

Spine-tingling chills, bumps in the night and dancing shadows were only the beginning of

four frightful nights as Terror Town returned to Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune through Oct. 31.

“You go in, and you never know if you’ll come out,” mused Laurie Valencia who acted at the base’s haunted house. “It’s such an adrenaline rush. People love it.”

Full of fan favorites like the graveyard, Vortex and witch’s house, the revamped maze led nearly 2,000 visitors through the fictional town with scary surprises lurking around every corner.

THE GLOBE, CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C.

Gyllenhaal, Perry give performances worth ‘Watch’-ing Now playing at Camp Lejeune “END OF WATCH” (R) “End of Watch” is an action buddy-cop drama about two police officers.

The story focuses on two officers with the South Central Los Angeles Police Department who are marked for death after confiscating a small cache of money and firearms from the members of a notorious Mexican drug cartel during a routine traffic stop.

The action unfolds through a series of vivid footage from the handheld cameras of the police officers, gang members, surveillance cameras, and citizens caught in the line of fire that creates a riveting portrait of the city’s most dangerous corners, and the cops who risk their lives every day, and the price they and their families are forced to pay.

Jake Gyllenhaal (“Source Code,” “Love and Other Drugs,” “Jarhead”) stars as Police Officer Brian Taylor, an intelligent and single man, who is ambitious with dreams of making detective.

Taylor is also video-taping his every day activities for a film class.

Michael Pena (“Tower Heist,” “The Lincoln Lawyer”) stars as Police Officer Mike Zavala, a happily married man and father.

The two are best friends, long-time partners, and good, dedicated working cops who are assigned to the hazardous

and mean streets of South Central Los Angeles.

Anna Kendrick (“Up in the Air”) is seen as Janet, the girlfriend of Officer Taylor.

Natalie Martinez (“Death Race”) plays Gabby, the charming wife of Officer Zavala.

Also appearing are David Harbour (“W.E.”) as Van Hauser, Frank Grillo (“The Grey”) as Sarge, America Ferrera (TV’s “Ugly Betty”) as Police Officer Orozco, Jaime FitzSimons (“Street Kings”) as Captain Reese, and Cody Horn (“Magic Mike”) as Police Officer Davis.

Director David Ayer (“Street Kings”) and writer (“S.W.A.T.,” “Training Day,” “U-571”) explores the friendship and brotherhood of two cops who are facing dangerous working conditions.

Gyllenhaal and Pena bring some of their most compelling performances to the screen and are perfectly convincing partners.

“End of Watch” is a gripping, riveting, gritty urban police drama and an unforgettable kind of tribute to the men in blue.

Now playing at Jacksonville “ALEX CROSS” “Alex Cross” is a crime thriller taken from the pages of popular novelist James Patterson.

Tyler Perry (“Good Deeds,” “Star Trek”) takes on the role of Dr. Alex Cross, a brainy Detroit Police Department homicide

detective and police psychologist who meets his match in a serial killer.

As Cross and his partner, Detective Tommy Kane played by Edward Burns (“Vantage Point”), investigate a recent gruesome murder by a diabolical serial assassin, the hitman sends Cross a deadly message by murdering his wife in cold blood.

Matthew Fox (TV’s “Lost”) portrays the crazy and psychotic villain, a ferociously skilled hired mob killer named Picasso.

Picasso is a serial killing mastermind who continues to evade Cross while pushing him into a psychological struggle of all proportions.

As Cross and his partner are closing in on Picasso, they discover evidence pointing to a revelation that could change everything.

Volunteers keep in character, and entertain service members and their families during Combat Logistics Regiment 27, 2nd Marine Logistics Group’s haunted house aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune Oct. 21. The regiment gathered families at its main building and treated them to a free haunted house and games.

T

he halls were bright before the haunting started.

Wisps of smoke and the evil glow of demon eyes filled the offices at Combat Logistics Regiment 27, 2nd Marine Logistics Group’s headquarters building aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune as weary visitors braved the dark entrance and wandered into the spooky hallways, Oct. 21.

The dark transformation took a week and completely altered an entire section of the building.

The eerie calls of actors mixed with the cries of visitors as they passed through the gauntlet of horrors: an operating table with a screaming patient, a bodiless head upon a table, a witch brewing potions, and a path through a

smoke-filled graveyard with zombies. “It was a lot of work,� said Petty Officer 2nd Class Cole Worst, a religious program specialist whose office was part of the haunted house. “To tell you the truth, I didn’t even think about it when I walked through today. It’s been a great time.�

Worst dressed in a Beetlejuice costume for the event – a favorite with the youngest visitors. He and other volunteers roamed the grounds and interacted with the children.

They took special care not to scare away their littlest guests by giving them glowing wristbands to ward off the scariest monsters. “I saw one kid hold out his bracelet, and the zombies would fall over,� chuckled Laurie Valencia, a spouse who volunteered at the event. “It’s always good to see the kids laughing. You know they are enjoying it.�

The unit also had a bouncy castle, games and barbeque for participants.

At the end of the festivities, several of the volunteers held a costume contest for the youngsters. “I think it brings a lot of the military personnel closer together,� said Valencia. “It creates a familiarity with everybody. The kids come and play together, and know Halloween isn’t just scary.

There is fun too.�

Some of the children laughed and others clung to their parents in fear as

they shuffled their way through the building.

Many immediately lined up for a second trip. “We turned this into an actual haunted house,� said volunteer Michelle Smoak with a laugh. “We knew we were all going to have to pitch in to put this together, and that is what we did.�

Tours through the building lasted until the evening, when the volunteers set to work returning the regiment to a more business-like state.

Chaplain’s Corner

Don’t fear change LT. CMDR. JOHN RUDD

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

Fall is the time of year when we think about change. The weather shifts from summer’s intense heat to milder temperatures, and we begin to plan activities around the fall holidays. Depending on our personal tastes or interests, we may enjoy fall or we dislike the changes it brings our way.

Some changes in our lives have a larger impact than just the time of year. Our nation is at war for over ten years, which means hundreds of thousands of Americans deployed and served their country directly in harm’s way. Most of these experiences give us good stories and memories because of the people we served with and the interesting places we were.

These changes give us new life skills, helping us to mature as adults. As challenging as mobilizations and deployments are to our families – and us, we wouldn’t trade the experiences for anything due to the positive impact on our lives.

However, some of the experiences of war are difficult. Tragedies involved, or the wear and tear from facing ongoing danger can leave scars. These difficult parts of war can change us, making it hard to go back to who we were before.

Change is uncomfortable, forcing us out of our comfort zone and causing us to come up with a new plan, resulting in personal growth. Service members carry the burden of hard work in facing the changes from being at war. Most are able to make a new plan in order to handle these changes and are often able to do so with the help of their loved ones. Accepting change is a choice that takes time and direct effort.

Those who are not able to cope well with these changes need a network of care from those around them. We can help by asking what changed and listen to how well or poorly things are going. Then, without judgment, we can encourage them to get professional help in facing these changes.

Avoid trying to fix them or tell them what to do.

They want to hear there is hope. Ask what they think will be a good plan. Most everyone in need of help knows they need it, and it is always best when searching it out is their idea. Say yes to their idea, and they will hear you are expecting them to get well. Be prepared with one or two resources if they ask where to get help. If you really listen to someone, they will know you want them to get well and be more likely to receive help from qualified counselors, clergy or the Veterans Administration.

America is facing changes brought on by war and heeding the words of one early veteran may make all the difference in a veteran’s life today and future veterans. George Washington said, “The willingness with which our young people are likely to serve in any war, no matter how justified, shall be directly proportional as to how they perceive veterans of earlier wars were treated and appreciated by this country.”

A Marine family in costume prepared to run at the monthly family fun run on Tarawa Terrace aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune Oct. 20. Fun runs are themed events and they give families and spouses time to be slightly silly while staying active through recreational fitness.

Monsters send residents running PFC. JOSHUA W. GRANT

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

Ghouls and monsters hit the streets Oct. 20, and it was all for a little exercise and a lot of fun.

The monthly family fun run at Tarawa Terrace kicked off October and in the spirit of Halloween, participants wore their scariest costumes.

“If you see a monster, run” was the theme for this month, and Lorraine Fuller, recreational specialist at Marine Corps Community Services, said the themes are used to create something special every month for the families.

“It’s more than just a fitness run.

It’s a silly event for the kids, and they’re going out and doing healthy things,” said Fuller.

A lot of adults embrace the theme as well because it allows them a chance to be silly, added Fuller.

Safety was paramount for everyone at the run, which is why they were encouraged to think about the costume and ensure it was suitable for running, continued Fuller.

Growing in size each month, the family fun run promotes a healthy lifestyle through fun recreational fitness. The fun run has a program starting each year for beginner and advanced runners.

The program consists of a progressive ladder of distances starting at one mile in January, and reaching three miles in December. The advanced runners are challenged with three-mile runs every month.

Not all attendees run; many spouses or individuals with young children walk the distance.

To get everyone involved in the run, MCCS advertises and a wide array of individuals show up, including Marines, spouses and relatives.

“We walk all the time, but it’s better when we have something to walk for,” said Mary Rainey, a military spouse.

It was her family’s first time at the monthly run, but she said she definitely plans to return next month and even get her daughter a costume for next month’s Turkey Leg Run. As a way to encourage families to continue to run each month the family fun run offers t-shirts to anyone who participates in four runs.

The runs do not have to be consecutive, and in 2013 there is a plan to have a new and more exciting prize, said Fuller.

Marines are known for exceptionally high physical training standards, and on the weekends MCCS always has a way to include a little exercise with a lot of family fun and excitement.

Creativity rules at Family Pumpkin Bash AMY BINKLEY

Assistant managing editor

Neither sun nor rain nor hurricane could keep Halloween from coming to Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune.

“What you see inside would remain the same whether the weather was good or bad,” she explained. “Due to safety reasons we were unable to include things like inflatables and pony rides.”

Fuller recognizes the importance of maintaining those connections.

“We have fun interacting with our families, and I believe it helps people feel comfortable at an event when they know who will be hosting it,” she remarked.

“There is nothing more rewarding to me than to have people know me by my first name. It takes what we do here at the center to another level.”

THE GLOBE, CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. TERROR FROM 1D Terror Town scares the yell out of its guests each Halloween season, but behind the scenes, scores of volunteers and working parties worked tirelessly, from building sets to creating the scenarios sure to give many people nightmares, for weeks.

“Ninety percent of the staff are service members and military dependents,” explained base theater manager and Terror Town overseer Charlie Miller.

“We allow our actors to design our rooms. They come up with the theme and then it’s theirs. If you let them own it, they’ll be more motivated.”

The construction of this year’s endeavor included a deranged dollhouse, an exorcism room and a redeyed vampire ready to feast on his next victim “It’s better to be part of one than to actually watch one, especially when you’re the victim,” noted Robert “Wolf ” Hope who helped scare base residents for more than a decade. “It’s different than watching a movie.”

Many volunteers and visitors return to Terror

Town year after year, creating a base-centered cult following.

“Many of the volunteers are here multiple times,” Hope said. “Without the working party and volunteers, this wouldn’t get finished.”

Returning volunteer Sgt. Daniel Rivera, 2nd Battalion, 10th Marines, confessed his addiction to haunted houses and explained why they’re so popular.

“People like the thrill of being scared,” he stated.

“They’re looking for the new fear. It’s something to talk about for the rest of the year.”

Pfc. James Mills, 2nd Maintenance Battalion, looked forward to playing his part in the haunted town.

“This is the first time I have to scare someone,” he admitted. “I think it’ll be fun.”

Valencia challenged her husband, who also volunteered to act, to a battle of horrors.

“It’s cool to get dressed up and scare people,” she commented. “We’ll see who can scare the most.”

As crowds waited in line each night to experience 1,200-square feet of pure terror, the actors anticipated how frightened their guests would become.

“I love seeing people’s real reactions,” confessed Rivera.

From losing items of clothing to wetting their pants, Hope saw every reaction in the book from horrified customers.

“We try to do something unique every year, something they don’t expect,” he described. “I saw grown Marines scream like little girls. It makes my day.”

Hope also mentioned how the grisly scenes tend to cause some people to pass out.

“We usually have at least one every other year,” he said.

Terror Town officials make sure to post their woeful warnings for everyone to see, but sometimes curiosity overrides the fear patrons are feeling.

“For certain people, it’s their thing. They want to see what’s going on,” Miller said. “The ones who return always provide positive feedback.”
