633RD AEROSPACE MEDICINE SQUADRON

For the first time in 38 years, a perfect lineup of the sun, moon and Earth will be visible from coast to coast, across North America on August 21, 2017.

One of the grandest and most fleeting natural spectacles known to humanity, this total solar eclipse is predicted to be the most viewed ever.

The path of totality—when the moon entirely blocks the sun’s face—will stretch from Salem, Oregon, starting at 10:16 a.m., and reach Charleston, South Carolina, at 2:48 p.m. This means Mountain Home Air Force Base, Idaho; F.E. Warren AFB, Wyoming; Offutt AFB, Nebraska; Scott AFB, Illinois; Arnold AFB, Tennessee; and Shaw and Charleston AFBs, South Carolina will briefly experience near 100 percent eclipse. The rest of the United States, including the Tidewater area, will see at least 70 to 90 percent.

Here are four things Airmen and families should know for a safe viewing experience: 1. Looking directly at the solar eclipse without proper eye protection is unsafe and can cause serious, permanent eye damage. The lone exception is during the brief total phase of the eclipse which will last under three minutes and only within the 70-mile wide band of totality.

Outside of that window, there will be harmful rays for the duration of the celestial event. There is no safe phase in the Tidewater area to view the eclipse unprotected.

2. Homemade filters and standard sunglasses—even dark or polarized ones—are not sufficient to prevent eye damage. This also goes for unfiltered cameras, telescopes, binoculars and other optical devices. The only safe way to directly view the uneclipsed or partially eclipsed sun is through special-purpose solar filters, including eclipse glasses or handheld solar viewers, that are “CE” certified and meet the ISO 12312-2 international standard. Look for these at community

centers, public libraries or through reputable manufacturers online. Those within the narrow band of totality can remove the solar viewer when the moon completely covers the sun and should replace it for the remaining partial phases. Always supervise children using solar viewers as young eyes are particularly susceptible to solar exposure damage.

3. Indirect viewing techniques are a safe and fun alternative. Pinhole projectors using your hands, cereal boxes or other projection techniques are popular ways to safely observe a solar eclipse. Look online for instructions on how to make a simple projector.

For the safest viewing experience, NASA will host a livestream “Eclipse Megacast” with exclusive multiplatform coverage across the path of

totality.

4. Be sure to safely enjoy the rare solar eclipse. Remember, never look directly at the sun with the naked eye.

If you experience problems with your eyes or vision following the eclipse, be sure to check with an optometrist.

Langley to conduct aerial herbicide spraying

By Senior Airman Derek Seifert

633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS

Joint Base Langley-Eustis will conduct an aerial herbicide spray over Langley Air Force Base, Aug. 15-17, 2017, to remove the invasive plant, Phragmites australis.

The spraying will affect the areas around the nature trail, marshy areas around the running track, old Tide Mill Lane Bridge (near the B-52 Stratofortress static display) and the marshy areas north of Service Road by enlisted service member housing.

“This invasive weed reduces overall biodiversity in sensitive marsh communities where it is found,” said Alicia Garcia, 633rd Civil Engineer Squadron natural resources program manager. “By removing it where we can, we help remove competition

from this plant within our sensitive marsh communities.”

Spraying the Phragmites australis will not only improve the biodiversity of specific marsh areas on Langley Air Force Base, it will also benefit the flightline, where the plant also provides cover for wildlife. By removing the plant, wildlife will be less likely to come in contact with air operations.

“Avoiding (Bird/Wildlife Aircraft Strike Hazard) incidents ultimately protects wildlife, such as shorebirds, in addition to protecting the military mission,” said Garcia.

According to Garcia, the herbicides will only be applied under appropriate environmental conditions, which factor in wind direction and speed. No drift over non-target areas is anticipated.

Wilson: Joint Base Langley-Eustis readiness key to lethality of force

By Staff Sgt. Carlin Leslie

633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS

Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson visited Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Aug. 3, 2017, where she met with Air Combat Command Commander Gen. Mike Holmes and visited the 1st Fighter Wing and 480th Air Reconnaissance Wing.

“We must restore the readiness of the force,” said Wilson. “The men and women at Langley Air Force Base are critical to maintaining and improving our lethality in the air.”

During her trip, Wilson met with three groups of pilots to learn more about retention, one of the keys to readiness.

Wilson said readiness starts with

Airmen.

“We need to be able to win any fight, any time,” she said. “Readiness isn’t about our ability to go to war, but how many Airmen will come home because we have prepared them to win.”

Langley is home to the Air Force’s largest operational F-22 unit, the 1st Fighter Wing.

During her visit Wilson spoke directly to pilots to get a better sense of why retention has become a major issue.

“I want to know what we can do better to revitalize squadrons as the core fighting unit in our Air Force,” she said.

In addition to the fighter community, Langley is also a leader in intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance with the 480th and 363rd ISR Wings.

Women’s Equality Day: Overcoming barriers

By Airman 1st Class Kaylee Dubois 633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS

U.S. Army Soldiers and civilians celebrated Women’s Equality Day with an observance at Joint Base LangleyEustis, Aug. 2, 2017.

Women’s Equality Day, celebrated on Aug. 26, will observe the 97th year of women’s right to vote, and recognize the accomplishments achieved by today’s female social reformers who help improve the rights for women in America.

“America’s diversity is its source of strength and women have not hesitated to defend and show their allegiance to this nation in many ways, but especially through their military service,” said U.S. Army Master Sgt. Eddie Brinkley, Women’s Equality Observance event master of ceremonies. “In the 97 years since the ratification of the 19th Amendment, women have made strides in every facet of American life and we have learned that our country succeeds when women succeed.”

Through poems and speeches, the observance offered a historical overview of the progression of women’s equality, from the passing of the 19th Amendment to today’s accomplishments, such as the

first female presidential candidate.

Guest speaker, Sgt. Maj. April Ivory, U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command diversity office sergeant major, expressed the importance of not only recognizing those who paved the way for equal rights, but also the leaders pushing for equality within the Armed Forces today.

“Ninety-seven years after the 19th Amendment was signed, women reign as leaders within the forefront of progress— at every level of society,” said Ivory.

“Today, we see progress. Barriers that once seemed insurmountable have been reduced and women’s success stories span across a myriad of professional jobs.”

She also noted the strides that each generation of women have taken to break down the obstacles placed in their way and how women must continue to shape the future for upcoming generations.

“Our young girls within our community and women within our ranks must know that their futures are limitless, and empower them to knock down any barriers that may come in their way,” said Ivory.

MOSQUITO SPRAYING

comes full circle Story and Photos by Staff Sgt. Carlin Leslie 633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS

In 1947, the U.S. Air Force activated the 4500th Aerial Spray Flight, whose mission was to minimize vector borne diseases and reduce troop loss during the war, at Langley Field.

Fast forward 70 years, the unit returned to Langley Air Force Base under its new name, the 757th Airlift Squadron, which is stationed at the 910th Airlift Wing at Youngstown Air Reserve Station, Ohio. During its visit, the 757th AS successfully completed its unique mission once again over Langley AFB and Craney Island, on August 1, 2017.

“Our number one focus area in Air Combat Command and Joint Base Langley-Eustis is readiness,” said Lt. Col. Kevin Osborne, 633rd Civil Engineer Squadron commander. “With the support from the 757th AS, we are ensuring disease transmitting species, or mosquitos, are not given the chance to impact our Airmen’s ability to support the warfighting mission.”

The local spray mission, which occurred after sunset to minimize exposure, was accomplished through multiple passes. The unit applied 90 gallons of TRUMPET EC, in what Maj. Jennifer Remmers, 757th AS entomologist, described as, “Throwing a shot glass of water over an acre of land.”

“The uniqueness of our system cannot be matched in the civil world, just in the sheer area that we can cover

in a disaster response or on mission,” said Remmers, “We are flying at 300 feet, at 200 knots, covering a swath width of 2,000 for multiple passes, like mowing the lawn.”

The 757th AS is the only unit that provides the aerial spraying mission within the Department of Defense, covering all stateside bases for Joint Service readiness.

The spraying is conducted using C-130 Hercules aircraft equipped with a Modular Aerial Spray System to complete the mission.

The C-130s are specially modified with spray arms and the MASS, which can carry a total of 2,000 gallons of insecticide, herbicide or dispersant. The agent is then disbursed out of spray bars under each wing, in 30-micron droplets. A technician also mans all operations of the spray rate and flow with the direction of a 757th AS entomologist.

Additionally, the team uses global positioning and other accurate navigation systems to ensure that the spaying occurs only over designated areas.

“The spray team is highly trained, and wind speed and direction was accounted for to ensure precise application to the target areas using Environmental Protection Agency-registered insecticides,” said Osborne.

With the help of the 757th AS Airmen assigned to Langley AFB are afforded the opportunity to continue supporting the Air Force’s warfighting mission sans the threat of vector borne diseases.

VTAC meets to evolve vehicle mission support operations

By Airman 1st Class Kaylee Dubois 633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS

The 441st Vehicle Support Chain Operations Squadron hosted the Vehicle Transformation and Acquisition Council at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Va., July 31 to Aug. 4, 2017.

Once a year, all the lead vehicle managers throughout the U.S. Air Force gather at the VTAC conference to highlight changes to new and old programs, discuss pertinent issues and work together to evolve vehicle management into a more streamlined force.

The warehouse module, one of the systems integrated this year, was a main topic during the meeting. The system’s integration ties the vehicle maintenance community together allowing installations throughout the Air Force to share vehicle parts with one another.

“Most of the changes that have been outlined by the members in the VTAC conference are for fleet management of our assets and some of the ways we utilize these assets,” said U.S. Air Force Master Sgt. Billy Martin, 733rd Logistics Readiness Squadron vehicle management flight superintendent. “We currently manage our assets locally, so if we have parts on-hand or parts available in our shop, those are going to be in this new system and seen by other fleet managers across the Air Force. We can tap into each other ’s resources helping our mission capabilities rates as far as parts are concerned.”

Forces together. The JLTV will begin to replace the Humvee across all branches of service by 2019.

Led by the U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps, the new vehicle was created for global mission needs instead of just battlefield requirements, offering greater capabilities in terms of payload capacity, survivability and performance.

“The JLTV was designed with a scalable armored approach, therefore coming with base-level armor, and the ability to add levels of armor to it depending on defense needs,” said Master Sgt. Timothy Thompson, 441st VSCOS transformation and sustainment program manager. “We can tailor the vehicles’ requirements around battlefield requirements—this is preparing us for the next generation of warfare.”

According to Thompson, organizations will find a change in maintenance and reliability due to the in-depth technology of the JLTV. As with the JLTV, the Air Force has been moving into a more technologically- and environmentally-friendly force.

“We have moved into using bioenvironmental-friendly engine oil and greases, and electric and hybrid vehicles,” said Tech. Sgt. Kevin Moss, 441st VSCOS vehicle program manager.

“We are constantly looking at the recycling processes and how it’ll affect the end products. Every year we are starting to move more towards hybrids and alternative fuels.”

In transforming vehicle management, VTAC looks to budgeting processes to evolve the field. This year, 441st VSCOS moved into centralized funding, saving the Air Force money by controlling the budget for the entire fleet.

More so, 441st VSCOS also worked

to revitalize the career field by selling vehicles no longer in use to other government agencies and the public.

The 441st VSCOS then uses the money they make reselling vehicles to provide new tools and equipment to each installation’s mechanics.

“We have a small team here at the 441st VSCOS that work very hard to take care of the entire career field and that’s over 6,000 people that are vehicle maintainers and vehicle fleet controllers,” said Moss. “Our jobs are to make sure that they have the tools they need to complete the mission.”

Covering everything from the health

The 441st Vehicle Support Chain Operations Squadron provided a look at the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle during the Vehicle Transformation and Acquisition Council meeting. The JLTV program is led by the U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps to design a vehicle that offers adaptability, survivability and performance for all types of battlefields.

of the career field, manning, logistics, and budgeting, VTAC works to ensure the livelihood of vehicle management in terms of procurement, posturing and mobilizing of vehicle fleets.

“It’s important for VTAC to meet because we are mission support, that’s our operation,” said Moss. “We support whatever mission you are assigned to, from Global Strike Command to Air Combat Command, so it’s important to meet to discuss the issues. We discuss how we can make the Air Force better and our career field better, and how we can take care of people, our Airmen, Soldiers and civilians–that’s a big one.”

Operation Llama Fury 3.0 kicks off

By Staff Sgt. Brittany E. N. Murphy 633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS

Operation Llama Fury 3.0 kicked off at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Aug. 7, 2017.

The five-day event aims to standardize Explosives Ordinance Disposal training and evaluations, and includes U.S. Air Force EOD teams from eight bases across the east coast, including Charleston Air Force Base, South Carolina.; Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, North Carolina; Joint Base Andrews, Maryland; Patrick Air Force Base, Florida.; Dover Air Force Base, Delaware; Joint Base McGuireDix-Lakehurst, New Jersey; and Moody Air Force Base, Georgia.

During the first phase of OLF 3.0, which took place the past two days, teams of EOD Airmen endured quality assurance evaluations, where they were evaluated on different simulated scenarios, as well as their job specific skills and equipment familiarity.

The Langley AFB EOD team hand crafted most of the props and workstations that helped simulate each evaluated scenario as if it were a realworld situation.

“The EOD mission is to neutralize whatever explosive threat presents itself and endangers lives,” said U.S. Air

Force Tech. Sgt. Taylor Saum, 633rd Civil Engineer Squadron EOD member and OLF 3.0 exercise coordinator. “This event presents numerous EOD challenges in situations that may not be routine for the participants. Llama Fury provides an excellent measure of each EOD team’s current capability, and allows our community to share best practices.”

The quality assurance evaluations, or round robin activities, encompassed four different training areas. One of the activities focused on conventional ordnance, where the teams had to identify, safely render and dispose of the ordnance. The second response was similar, but included a peacetime improvised explosive device, where the teams had to assess the threat, render it safe, dispose of, and collect evidence of the ordnance.

“We deploy overseas and are called in to defuse improvised explosive devices, or here we may be sent to examine a suspicious parcel,” said Capt. Cory McCart, 633rd CES EOD flight commander, of the importance of training on various ordinance scenarios.

“Wherever there’s a threat from an explosive device, an EOD Airman will be there to deactivate the device.”

Wright provides direction for the enlisted force and represents their interests CONTINUED FROM 7 “One of our greatest challenges we need to place a greater focus on is identifying young Airmen and families that need the services available and connecting the two,” said Wright. “Many times our young Airmen won’t raise their hand and say they need help. It’s the responsibility of supervisors to know what their Airmen need and connect them to those resources. Our airmen and family readiness centers are fantastic, and they really do a great job providing

the resources people need. We just need to make the connection.”

At JB San Antonio-Lackland, Wright met with military training leaders where the integration of innovative solutions into training through the application of emerging ideas, tools, and technology was discussed, which is a major focus area for AETC. “I think we need to evolve the way we train, and most of that is centered on technology,” said Wright. “In today’s day and age with the tools and technology we have available it is imperative that

U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Aaron D’Angelo, 11th Civil Engineer Squadron explosive ordinance disposal technician, participates in a scenario during Operation Llama Fury 3.0 at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Va., Aug. 8, 2016. During the first phase of OLF 3.0, teams of EOD Airmen endured quality assurance evaluations, where they were evaluated on different simulated scenarios, as well as their job specific skills and equipment familiarity.

The other two activities involved a simulated chemical unexploded ordnance and a nuclear weapon incident that each team had to identify, evaluate and properly dispose of.

On Aug. 11, the final day of physical tasks, the EOD members will perform the crucible, which will consist of eight stations, where team members will switch roles and rely on each other to perform each task properly.

“The crucible and all of the training

events are challenging, that’s why safety is built into everything we do.

If a tactic or procedure isn’t safe, then it’s not a good tactic,” said Saum. “This event gives our community a chance to examine what we do as individuals and as teams.”

The goal is that by the end of OLF 3.0, each EOD team will have improved their readiness and techniques, which they can then share with throughout the Air Force.

we evolve our training platforms and systems to make training more efficient and effective for all of our Airmen.”

Wright also attended a BMT graduation and welcomed the newest generation of Airmen into the Air Force.

“In order to get ready for Airmen of any generation, these new Airmen and the Airmen of tomorrow, it’s incumbent upon us to maintain the skills necessary to be good supervisors, good mentors and great leaders to help these Airmen thrive and achieve the goals they set out,” said Wright. “These men and women joined the Air Force to be part of a team, and to be part of something greater than themselves. It’s our responsibility to help them realize that dream.”

Focus and pride were the main points of the service’s senior enlisted leader’s advice to the new Airmen.

“To our newest Airmen, dream big, focus small and continue the level of pride you have in serving and being an Airman,” said Wright.

As the CMSAF, Wright represents the highest enlisted level of leadership, and provides direction for the enlisted force and represents their interests, as appropriate, to the American public, and to those in all levels of government.

He serves as the personal adviser to the chief of staff and the secretary of the Air Force on all issues regarding the welfare, readiness, morale, and proper utilization and progress of the enlisted force.

Manpower shortage impacts 633rd Medical Group services
