Record-setting career comes to a close For one of the most prolific players over the past 20 years, the road ends here. Five-time NBA champion Kobe Bryant played his final game Wednesday against the Utah Jazz. The two-time Finals MVP is third on the NBA’s all-time scoring list, trailing only Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Karl Malone. He’s third in postseason scoring too, trailing Michael Jordan and AbdulJabbar. He was an All-Star 18 times, the second most in history behind Abdul-Jabbar, and was named first-team All-NBA 11 times, tied for the most in history. And his longevity makes positional history — he’s the first guard to play 20 seasons. Bryant leaves a vast legacy with the Lakers. He has played all 20 of his seasons with them, the most seasons any player has played with one team in NBA history. He departs Los Angeles as the franchise’s all-time leader in points, 3-pointers, steals and games played. He’s second in assists behind Magic Johnson. One of his most memorable performances was his 81-point game on Jan. 22, 2006, against the Raptors. He shot 61 percent from the field, scoring 1.93 points per minute over 42 minutes of play. It’s the second-highest scoring output in a single game in NBA history, trailing only the 100 points Wilt Chamberlain scored in March 1962. No other player has ever reached 80 in a game — third on the list is Chamberlain with 78 in December 1961. But it might not even have been Bryant’s best game. On Dec. 21, 2005, he scored 62 points in three quarters against the Mavericks, who as a team had 61 points through three quarters. In that game, Bryant shot 58 percent, notching 1.91 points per minute over just 33 minutes of play. Regardless of which was better, the two games are part of a theme for Bryant: high-scoring games. He had 24 career 50-point games. Only Chamberlain (118) and Jordan (31) had more 50-point games.
Kobe Bryant, who is retiring from basketball after this season, says his job is nothing compared to the work of members of the military.
KOBE BRYANT: ‘YOU ARE OUR TRUE HEROES’ By Carlos Kremer MilitaryPress
I
n only a handful of times in your life do we get to witness greatness. Pure excellence, who becomes a legend while the others watch in amazement. Someone that we will remember the rest of our life and someone that changed the game forever. The “Black Mamba� Kobe Bryant is exactly that and so much more. Kobe went straight from high school to the pros and never looked back. His accomplishments are staggering. Twenty years in the NBA and an 18-time all star. Five time NBA Champion, two time finals MVP as well as regular season MVP. He is the all-time Lakers leading scorer and third leading scorer in NBA History. He had an 81-point game, which was basketball’s equivalent to the priest on “Caddyshack� having the round of his life. He simply could not miss, from anywhere

on the court. We have been so blessed to witness his extraordinary career. What most don’t know is that Kobe Bryant is SUPER PATRIOTIC and loves the men and women of the military so much that he became teary eyed when speaking to me. His love of our servicemen was apparent immediately when he stopped his interviews from press from all over the world to speak to me and our soldiers. I said that our military loves your dedication, focus, drive and determination to always complete the mission in exemplary fashion. What words do you have for our troops? “That is true pressure, what our men and women in the military do on a daily basis,� Bryant said. “Making or missing a shot, winning or losing a game, the platform that I am on and the game that I play that is NOTHING compared to what you do. There is always another game and there isn’t always a second chance for our

soldiers defending our great nation. “Thank you so much for all you have done, for you are the true heroes of our country. The true leaders that you don’t read about in the papers or see on your TV. The ones that quietly and heroically defend our nation. What you do in the field is a pressure that not many realize or can comprehend. I do, and I am thankful every day to you for protecting our freedom. Quiet and brave, again thank you�. It was so touching to see the level of Kobe’s patriotism and love for our country. His respect for our military is on another level and he was very emotional during this interview with me. Thank you “Black Mamba� for an amazing career and your passion for the game. You gave us an escape during some of life’s toughest challenges and we will remember you and what you have done forever. A true legend that wanted to share his swan song and final goodbyes to his fans thru the Military Press, and for that we are grateful.

‘BACK TO THE FUTURE 2’ FOR THE BOLTS CHARGERS REPORT
I
by Art Garcia Jr.
n our last issue, we reviewed the Chargers’ draft of 1975 as an example of the type of draft that is needed for the quickest return to the top of the AFC West during the Philip Rivers era. This story will look back to the 2004 draft which landed Rivers and a number of impact players who were key components to a team that won four consecutive division titles from 2006-2009. Just three years prior in 2001, the Chargers traded the top pick to the Atlanta Falcons for their first (No. 5) and thirdround picks in ’01; WR/KR Tim Dwight and the Falcons’ second-round pick in ’02. This trade enabled the Chargers to select future Hall of Fame running back LaDanian Tomlinson, who became the catalyst behind the teams’ successful playoff years beginning in ’06. Finishing fourth in the AFC West with a 4-12 record in 2003, the Chargers again As the NFL draft approaches, the Chargers will need to repeat their moves from drafts past, such as 2004, when the team acquired Quarterback Philip Rivers. owned the number one overall pick in the Round 1 — Philip Rivers*, QB, North 2004.

the mission to improve the care and protection of heroes through individual support, community empowerment and systemic change. One of the three ways they do that is the Climb for Heroes Initiative, supporting climbing programs for wounded veterans. The Foundation puts injured war veterans on some of the highest summits of the world. “One of the greatest things I’ve found with climbing the big mountains is that it brings them back,� Medvetz says. “It gives them that feeling of being on the battlefield again without getting shot at, so it’s a real big positive effect.� The pair use the Beverly Hills based altitude pod to prepare. They started at 5,000 feet, which is like a visit to Denver. A few days later, they go to 8,000. Then 12,000. Every few days they would simulate higher and higher altitudes to stave off altitude sickness. They also slept in altitude chamber “bubbles� at home. The effort physically shows. During my interview in the chamber at a simulated 18,000 feet, Medvetz’ blood oxygen saturation steadied at 90 while mine dropped to 85. At sea level, the average saturation level hovers around 96. After 45 minutes of talking, I felt lightheaded and loopy. “That’s your body literally falling apart,� Medvetz said. “You can’t just go to Base Camp. You get headaches, fatigue, and general wooziness before you pass out. There are only three cures: descend, descend, descend.� “I feel good this year,� says Linville. “There were so many nerves that were here before that are gone now. I’ve been working a long time to prepare for this.�
he base camp on the Nepal side of Mount Everest sits at just below 18,000 feet. At this extreme altitude, oxygen decreases by half, and climbers can become light-headed, get headaches, and feel weak. Climbers also risk acute mountain sickness, hypoxia, and fatigue, as well as pulmonary and cerebral edema. The Everest Summit is at 29,035 feet, 3,000 feet above what is known as the “Death Zone� of mountain altitudes: the elevation level where the oxygen in the air is insufficient to support human life. It’s at this altitude WATM interviewed Tim Medvetz, not on the actual mountain but at his Equinox training center in Beverly Hills. Here, Medvetz and Marine Corps veteran Charlie Linville have been training in a simulated altitude chamber, working on stationary bikes at atmospheres replicating Everest Base Camp. This week, Medvetz and Linville departed for Nepal to begin their summit of the world’s highest mountain. Linville, an Afghanistan veteran and father of two, had his right leg amputated below the knee as a result of an IED explosion. If he summits the mountain, he will be the first combatwounded veteran to climb Everest. “This is what we do,� Medvetz says. “We concentrate on one Marine, one soldier, one vet, at a time. We feel that we can make a larger impact on one guy’s life rather than making a little impact on a lot of guys’ lives.� Medvetz is a former member of the Hell’s Angels Motorcycle Club and foundEVEREST, continued on Page 14 er of The Heroes Project, a nonprofit with 'PS BEWFSUJTJOH JOGPSNBUJPO DBMM t BEWFSUJTJOH!NJMJUBSZQSFTT DPN

MCCARTHY’S ‘BOSS’ A CRACK UP By Jeri Jacquin MilitaryPress
In theaters from director/writer Ben Falcone, Melissa McCarthy and Steve Mallory along with Universal Pictures are the rules of knowing who is “The Boss.� Life hasn’t always been easy for Michelle Darnell (Melissa McCarthy). Being turned away from families, she made it clear early on that she was going to become something all on her own. Becoming the 7th richest person in the world, she has no problem telling people what she thinks or feels. Especially to her assistant Claire (Kristen Bell) treating her roughly and not really caring about her life. What Michelle doesn’t realize is that watching her from afar is Renault (Peter Dinklage), a former lover and co-worker who is still holding a 25-year old grudge. In an act of revenge, Renault calls the authorities to report Michelle for insider trading. Sentenced to time in prison, Michelle bides her time. Claire finds a new job working with Mike (Tyler Labine) who has a tad bit of a crush on Claire. Keeping herself busy raising daughter Rachel (Ella Anderson), she is surprised to come home from work to find Michelle on her doorstep. Knowing there is no place for her to go since her assets had been seized; Claire agrees to let her stay until for a while. Asking Michelle to take Rachel to her Dandelion meeting, Michelle comes up with a wild idea and a way to make money again. Using Claire’s brownie recipe she creates her own troop of girls and sells the brownies! The problem is Michelle still has to deal with Renault who wants to steal what’s hers, dealing with feelings of family and keeping crazy Dandelion Mom Helen (Annie Mumolo) — what’s a bossy ginger Military Press storage west 1-4 pg horiz_02-16.pdf to do?
Melissa McCarthy stars in “The Boss,� and is sure to leave you in stitches.
McCarthy as Michelle is a sharply dressed rich lady with a bad attitude about life and family. Thinking only of herself it is inevitable that looking down (sorry Peter) on someone will catch up. McCarthy is just brilliant in this role giving straight forward comedy that truly did have everyone in the theatre laughing hysterically and shooting an asner or two. Never eat or drink during a McCarthy movie is what I’m beginning to think. That being said there isn’t anything about this film and her role that I didn’t like.

her situation — financially or romantically. It takes a crazy lady like Michelle to point out her flaws. Bell gets a chance to be a little more dowdy and down to earth as a brownie baking Mom. Dinklage as Renault is a man on a mission of revenge. Feeling he is owed more than a silly apology, the Samurai wannabe is in destruct mode.

Dogs learn to fly planes in reality TV show It might sound barking mad, but it turns out dogs can fly. A New Zealand dog trainer who taught dogs to drive has done the unthinkable and managed to train dogs how to pilot a plane in a bid to prove just how capable rescue dogs can be. Last year, animal trainer and zoologist Mark Vette spent four months in the United Kingdom working with rescue dogs for the series, “Dogs Might Fly,� which is only just airing in Britain. In a world first, Vette was able to successfully train three rescue dogs, Reggie, Shadow and Alfie, to fly a plane, and even perform tricks, including a figure of eight maneuver. “It’s pretty crazy,� Vette told news. com.au. “The human-dog relationship is one that has co-evolved over the last 30,000-50,000 years, it’s an incredibly subtle and complex relationship. “It takes a lot of training and a lot of work and integration to build that collaboration but it’s amazing, the more I’ve flown with the dogs the more intuitive they get.� The process involved training the dogs on a flight simulator which used colored signals to indicate which direction the dog should fly; blue to turn left, red to turn right and white to continue straight ahead. Reggie was the world’s first dog to successfully fly, where according to Vette, flew for 15 minutes straight. “It’s a two way trust because you’re in a potentially dangerous environment. It can be all over, you’ve got to be careful,� said Vette. “We love to do these crazy and amazing performances but at the end of the day we’re trying to show that rescue dogs are smart dogs, this is why we’re doing it.� So could we be seeing our canine companions pilot a jet plane one day? “There’s certainly more to go, I haven’t had the call to take one into a space rocket yet but I’ll keep the option open.�

HEROIC US MARINE CORPS SERVICE DOG AWARDED TOP MEDAL FOR WAR ANIMALS A heroic U.S. Marine Corps German shepherd that lost a leg sniffing out a roadside bomb in Afghanistan was awarded the world’s highest honor for service dogs during a special ceremony April 5. Lucca, who served U.S. troops during more than 400 missions in Iraq and Afghanistan over a six-year span, received the People’s Dispensary for Sick Animals (PDSA) Dickin Medal at the Wellington Barracks in London. She is the first Marine Corps dog to receive the medal, considered the top honor for war animals around the world. Her handler, Gunnery Sgt. Christopher Willingham, told Sky News that it was an “incredible honor� to receive the award from the veterinary charity. “It is very humbling to be part of this entire process,� he said. “I think more importantly is that Lucca’s accomplishments are going to help bring awareness and recognition to all our military working dogs and their handlers.� There were no human casualties during Lucca’s bomb-sniffing patrols. Her career ended in March 2012 when she lost her leg and suffered chest burns from a bombing in Afghanistan’s Helmand Province. Cpl. Juan Rodriguez, who was her handler at the time, stayed by her side throughout each step of Lucca’s recovery. “The explosion was huge and I immediately feared the worst for Lucca,� he told The Telegraph. “I ran to her and saw her struggling to get up. I picked her up and ran to the shelter of a nearby tree line, applied a tourniquet to her injured leg and called the medics to collect us.� Ten days later, after an operation, Lucca was up and walking again. “Through all of her treatment, and de-

spite the pain she was in, her temperament never changed,� Rodriguez said. “Her fighting spirit was plain to see and I was so proud of how quickly she recovered.� Willingham, who now takes care of Lucca in California, told Sky News that he tries his “best to keep her spoiled in her well-deserved retirement.� He traveled to London to accept the medal Tuesday. “Lucca’s conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty makes her a hugely deserving recipient of the PDSA Dickin Medal,� said Jan McLoughlin, director general of
the PDSA. “Her ability and determination to seek out arms and explosives preserved human life amid some of the world’s fiercest military conflicts.� Since the medal was introduced in 1943, it has been awarded to dozens of dogs and World War II messenger pigeons, as well as three horses and a cat. Diesel, a French police dog who was killed in the raid to capture terrorists behind the deadly Nov. 13 Paris attacks, will also posthumously receive the medal this year.

Uber, the popular ride-sharing app that connects users with drivers using their own cars, has reached an important milestone in their UberMilitary program: 50,000 users. The program was launched in September 2014, and focused on recruiting active military, veterans and military spouses as drivers. To mark the milestone, Uber said it would donate $1 million to military-oriented charities. Former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates currently sits on the Uber military advisory board made up of several retired military officers. Gates says the flexibility of the job makes a lucrative and smart choice for people in the military community. “We are trying to help not only veterans, but people who are on active duty who may need a second income and are stationed in the U.S.; or especially military spouses who move from place to place,� Gates said. “And it’s a perfect kind of position for them because they can pick up where they left off when they were re-assigned from New York to California. They can pick up and start driving again.� Emil Michael, Uber’s senior vice president of business, spent time at the White House with Gates, and interacted with troops while visiting in Afghanistan and Iraq, and felt that Uber could be a useful tool for the military community. “When we got back we realized that Uber could be a part of the solution, whether you’re coming back, or you’re transitioning into school via the G.I. Bill, or you’re transitioning into a job,� Michael said. “Uber was a perfect solution for that in the near term and it was flexible and they can make money, and they’re rated the same or better than other drivers.� Former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Michael Mullen serves on the military advisory board with Gates, and agrees Uber is a great choice for people associated with the military. “Driving with Uber is an incredible opportunity,� Admiral Mullen said. “It provides flexibility and allows veterans to pursue the American dream, be it furthering education, pursuing certification or starting a small business.�

Our teacher asked what my favorite animal was, and I said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fried chicken.â&#x20AC;? She said I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t funny, but she couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have been right, because everyone else laughed. My parents told me to always tell the truth. I did. Fried chicken is my favorite animal. I told my dad what happened, and he said my teacher was probably a member of PETA. He said they love animals very much. I do, too. Especially chicken, pork and beef. Anyway, my teacher sent me to the principalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office. I told him what happened, and he laughed, too. Then he told me not to do it again. The next day in class my teacher asked me what my favorite live animal was. I told it was chicken. She asked my why, so I told her it was because you could make them into fried chicken. She sent me back to the

Warfare Continuous Trail Unmanned Vessel, or ACTUV. The goal of the program: field an autonomous ship with the range and endurance to go anywhere in the world while avoiding collisions with other ships and obeying the rules of navigation. Although the ship is designed to sail unmanned, a human operator will maintain contact and make sure the ship is obeying nautical rules and is on mission. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The human being is not joysticking,â&#x20AC;? said DARPA program manager Scott Littlefield. Rather the operator stays in the loop via what DARPA calls sparse remote supervisory control. The ship perceives its environment via F- and X-band radar, the ship automatic identification system (required on ships of greater than 300 tons), and a camera. DARPA is working with the Office of Naval Research on a stereoscopic camera and software that can do advanced image recognition of other ships that it encounters. If a second vessel meets ACTUV on the open sea and needs to make bridge-tobridge contact, the remote human operator will do the talking.

EVEREST Continued from Page 3
Tim Medvetz and Charlie Linville have known each other since before Linville had to have his foot amputated in 2012. Before that the Marine had 14 surgeries to try to repair the damage to his limb. That was the year Linville says his whole life changed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I called him [Medvetz] two hours later from the hospital that I was ready to train,â&#x20AC;? Linville remembers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That drive speaks to Tim. I wanted to push myself as much as I could.â&#x20AC;? The duo was set to climb another mountain, but the Marine didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel like it was enough of a challenge. While at a fundraiser, he was speaking to a mutual friend. Linville told the friend that the mountain they were set to climb was okay but it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the challenge he was looking for. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when Tim came to the realization that I was the right guy for Everest,â&#x20AC;? Linville says. This will be the pairâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s third attempt to summit the mountain. During their first attempt, a serac, a huge ice tower, separated from the Khumbu Icefall during an avalanche and killed 16 Sherpas. Out of respect to the Sherpas who are well known in the climbing community, they cancelled the trip after reaching 22,000 feet. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is going to be my 5th time on Everest,â&#x20AC;? Medvetz says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The first time we climbed it, we had 11 guys that died. The 2nd time, 13 guys died. But this was the first time 16 all died or buried at once.â&#x20AC;?
Charlie Linville and Tim Medvetz with Team Rubicon in Nepal.
For the second attempt for Medvetz and Linville, they attempted from the north face of the mountain in April 2015. They arrived at the base camp and went into tents to get food. While they were there, the 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck Nepal. The team, the Sherpas, and everyone
else at the camp were stuck there. There, the damage was minimal, but 8,000 were dead with another 12,000 injured throughout the country. While most decided that they might as well press on to the summit, Medvetz and Linville didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel right about it. As soon as the Chinese re-opened the road to Lhasa, the duo linked up with Team Rubiconâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Operation Tenzig, distributing food and first aid to villages in the Nepalese countryside that the Red Cross couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t access. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Charlie was just like, boom, right at it,â&#x20AC;? remembers Medvetz. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We hit the road with gloves on, right to work. Patching kids up, patching old people up, and in the end, it was more rewarding to be on the

He went to Balboa Naval Hospital in San Diego to meet someone to go on a climb with. Medvetz sat in the hospital for three hours, drinking coffee and watching wounded veterans, some missing limbs, come and go. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d never seen anything like it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I pulled over off the 5 freeway at the first gas station and I must have smoked half a pack of cigarettes,â&#x20AC;? he remembers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I decided Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m gonna do everything I can. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m gonna make a difference. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how I started.â&#x20AC;? Medvetz and Linville departed for their
