Fightertown PMO receives federal accreditation

Col. Peter Buck, Left, receives a plaque of recognition from Lt. Col. Jan Durham aboard Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort Feb. 18. The plaque was accepted on behalf of the Provost Marshal’s Office who received federal accreditation from Headquarters Marine Corps. The recognition came after seventeen months of observation from Headquarters Marine Corps through a modified course of inspections and criteria used for high-tempo municipal police forces. Buck is the commanding officer of MCAS Beaufort. Durham is a representative of the Deputy Commandant of Security Plans, Policies, and Operations Security Division.

Story and photos by: Lance Cpl. Jonah Lovy Staff Writer The Provost Marshal’s Office aboard Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort received federal accreditation Feb. 18. The recognition came after a 17-month observation from Headquarters Marine Corps through a modified course of inspections and criteria used for high-tempo municipal police forces. “It is the Marine Corps’ recognition of our efforts and a credit to the Provost Marshal’s Office,” said Maj. Eduardo Pinales, the Provost Marshal for MCAS Beaufort. “Receiving this award allows our department to say we are a professional, accredited department and we meet all the needs of the installation commander by providing security and safety of the installation to the best of our ability.” HQMC representatives visited Beaufort on several occasions during the accreditation process to evaluate each service section within PMO. The representatives addressed the strengths and deficiencies within each section throughout the process. “We have an expected standard to demonstrate proficiency in our daily jobs and we have met that standard here today,” said Pinales. “It is because of the hard work of every section and the individual Marines in those sections that we have made it to this level of excellence.” see

Volunteers help community bring a piece of history home Story and photos by: Sgt. Dengrier M. Baez Public Affairs Chief Two bright yellow moving trucks parked by the quaint white-painted building in a small downtown Street. On the adjacent street, looking pass the road, sail boats of all sizes anchored in the bay. The beeping of a forklift and voices of the volunteers filled the air. The voices came from eight Marines from Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort and volunteers from the local community as they helped move articles that are part of a Santa Elena Foundation historical exhibition. The volunteers, in coordination with the foundation staff, moved and transported the articles from St. Helena Island to the Santa Elena History Center in downtown Beaufort. “It took a long time to organize all this but I’m glad it worked out,” said Guy Collier, the project leader with the foundation. “Not many people know about Santa Elena and how it’s an impor-

tant part of our history.” The mission of the Santa Elena Foundation is the discovery, preservation, and promotion of the “Lost Century” of European colonization through the international story of Santa Elena, the 16th Century La Florida settlement that became the colonial Spanish capital in present-day United States, according to the Santa-Elena.org site. “It’s not every day we get to do things like this since our operational tempo is high,” said Lance Cpl. Marvin Edwards, an air defense operator with the Early Warning Control Detachment, Marine Air Control Squadron 2. “I am always looking for opportunities to volunteer and, when I heard from my staff sergeant about this, I signed up right away. Helping out the community we lived in is always a good feeling.” The historical exhibition was first put together and displayed by the Spanish Government in celebration of the 450th anniversary of the port see

NMCRS Active Duty Fund Drive begins March 1 For more than 240 years, Marines and Sailors have answered our nation’s call with courage and devotion. We take great pride in taking care of our service members and their families, however the Navy and Marine Corps cannot meet every need alone. Since 1904, the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society has helped active duty Marines and Sailors deal with crises, schedule and pay for emergency travel, and take care of their family when times get tough. The Society also supports Navy and Marine Corps families as well as our wounded warriors, giving our service members peace of mind whether deployed or in garrison.

The annual Active Duty Fund Drive has two primary purposes: First, to raise awareness among active duty Marines and Sailors about the programs and services available to them. And second, to raise funds to support the Relief Society. Last year, M a r i n e Corps Air Station Beaufort and Marine Aircraft Group 31 contributed nearly $19,000 to the Active Duty Fund Drive. The Relief Society provided more than $288,000 in financial assistance to our Marines and fellow Shipmates. The Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society provides the fol-

lowing to Marines and Sailors aboard MCAS Beaufort: • Short-term, no-interest loans • Grants, as necessary • Registered nurses who make home visits • Thrift shops • “Welcome baby” gift bags for expectant families • Scholarships and loans for undergraduate education • Budget counseling and personal financial management training Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society loans and grants may be used for: • Basic living expenses (like

food, gas, and lodging) • Emergency travel expenses • Personal expenses when military pay is delayed • Essential vehicle repairs • Family funeral expenses • Medical/dental expenses such as co-pays A $10 monthly allotment from your paycheck becomes $120 without any effort, and could mean a lot to someone who needs help to fly home to the bedside of a loved one. Each Marine and Sailor is encouraged to support the NavyMarine Corps Relief Society. The chances are that you or someone you know will experience the benefit of this organization this year. “This fund drive is for our own, from our own,” said Col. Peter D. Buck, the commanding officer of MCAS Beaufort.

Fightertown deployed:

Did you know... February 28, 1991: Operation Desert Storm ended when the cease- fire declared by President George Bush went into effect. I Marine Expeditionary Force has a strength of more than 92,000 making Operation Desert Storm the largest Marine Corps operation in history. A total of 24 Marines were killed in action during the Gulf War.

Persistent El Nino conditions will provide a winter similar to last year for the United States. Beaufort County will be wetter and cooler than normal. Additionally, there will be a higher risk for severe weather, including tornadoes and possible floods. Be prepared for drastic changes in temperatures and precipitation. Monitor the latest forecasts and briefings from the National Weather Service in order to prepare your home and family for any extreme weather. Ensure you take extra precautions when travelling.

town of St. Augustine, Fla., where it was then purchased for the foundation. St. Augustine is the oldest, continuously occupied, European city, port, and parish in the continental U.S. St. Augustine was founded on Sept. 8, 1565, by Spanish Admr. Pedro Menéndez de Avilés. Menendez would play a vital part in the development of Santa Elena soon after. The deep and natural harbor of Port Royal Sound first attracted the French who established Charlesfort there in 1562. The French settlement at Charlesfort and Fort Caroline, near present-day Jacksonville, Fla,. alarmed King Phillip II of Spain. The Spanish did not capitalize on the Papal decree giving all undiscovered land in North and South America, excluding Brazil, to Spain before the 1560s. Much of that

land made up what today is the United States, according to the site. The French abandoned Charlesfort in less than a year. The Spanish, eager to stake their claim to La Florida, quickly established a garrison at St. Augustine and a permanent settlement in 1566 at Santa Elena, building on the abandoned French fort site. Santa Elena served as the Spanish capital of La Florida from 1569 to 1587. A third European power, England, sealed the fate of Santa Elena. Prompted by Sir Francis Drake’s attacks on Spanish holdings in the Caribbean in 1586, Spain — depleted of its financial sources — decided to retrench in St. Augustine, according to the site. The site was first excavated in the 1850s, but with no written records from Spain and relying on 16th-century French illustrations of the area, historians thought the site exclusively French. Today, Santa Elena is surrounded by Marine Corps Recruit Depot, Parris Island.

During World War I, the Marine Corps began to use Parris Island as a training site and uncovered pottery from the 16th century. In 1957, National Park Service archaeologists examined the artifacts and determined they were from Spain or made by Spaniards. Further excavations determined that both the French and Spanish had occupied the site, according to the site. Santa Elena was named a National Historic Landmark in 2001 based largely on its role in the heated competition among European powers for the New World. The Santa Elena exhibition is planned to be brought to the depot to be display at the Parris Island Museum. With the work completed, the volunteers all sat around at the end and shared a meal and a conversation. Thanks to the effort of the Santa Elena Foundation and the helping hand of the volunteers a vital piece of South Carolina and American history will be shared with the world.

An AH-1W Super Cobra rests on the flight line aboard Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, Feb. 22. The aircraft is here to participate in Exercise Eager Response Feb. 24-28. Eager Response is a Battalion sized tactical insertion and combined arms exercise with units from 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing from MCAS Cherry Point, N.C. and 2nd Marine Division from Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, N.C. The exercise will be conducted at Fort Stewart, Ga. F/A-18 Hornets from MCAS Beaufort will also participate in the exercise providing close air support and airborne forward air control. The Super Cobra is with Marine Light Attack Helicopter Squadron 269, Marine Aircraft Group 29.

RESPONSE continued from page 1

Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort is hosting squadrons from other units to support Exercise Eager Response Feb. 24-28. Squadrons from Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point are residing at the air station to participate in Exercise Eager Response Feb. 24-28. The exercise will be conducted at Fort Stewart, Ga., which is home to the Army’s 3rd Infantry Division. The base is often used for armor training and large scale infantry exercises. Fort Stewart is ideal for joint exercises due to its 280,000 acres of space available for training. F/A-18 Hornets from MCAS Beaufort will also participate in the exercise providing close air support and airborne forward air control. The close proximity of Fort Stewart to MCAS Beaufort makes the air station an ideal place for visiting aircraft. Eager Response is a battalion sized tactical insertion and combined arms exercise with units from 2nd Ma-

rine Aircraft Wing from MCAS Cherry Point, N.C. and 2nd Marine Division from Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, N.C. “This exercise is designed to test the squadron and battalion-level planners in their integration of combined arms efforts,” said Maj. Gen. Gary Thomas, the commanding general of 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing. The aircraft visiting Beaufort includes AH-1W Super Cobras, which are twin engine attack helicopter, as well as UH-1Y Venoms, which are medium sized utility helicopters. CH-53E Super Stallions are being used as transport vehicles for the exercise. The Super Stallion is the largest and heaviest helicopter currently used by the United States military. A KC-130J Super Hercules arrived Feb. 22 carrying maintainers and equipment for the helicopters. The Super Hercules is a four-engine turboprop military transport aircraft. Marines from MCAS Cherry Point who are participating in Eager Response are using Fightertown’s facilities for the duration of the exercise.

In honor of the accomplishment, a representative of the deputy commandant of Security Plans, Policies, and Operations Security Division, Lt. Col. Jan Durham, presented a plaque of recognition to Col. Peter Buck, the commanding officer of MCAS Beaufort. “When you focus on achieving those standards, it gets the Provost Marshal, his military policemen and police officers back to the fundamental things they’re supposed to be doing on a regular basis: weapons qualifications, use of force adherence, upholding regulations,” said Durham. “Those tier one standards are at the core

of what we do.” In order to be eligible for accreditation, PMO had to meet or exceed the specified curriculum, which is comprised of a series of basic criteria drafted from accreditation programs of larger municipal police forces. This model requires each department to pass specific standards, from armory weapon and ammunition storage, to physical security surveys throughout the entire installation. Recently, the implementation of the criteria throughout all military services has put the Marine Corps in a position to set the example. Upon gaining eligibility, the deputy commandant for Plans, Policies, and Operations Security Division Director makes the final decision in the accreditation process. Fightertown’s PMO not only exceeded those requirements, but also demonstrated that their department

can indeed perform when it comes to force protection. “Being an accredited institution is absolutely critical for several reasons,” said Durham. “At every installation, the commander has responsibility for security, safety and law enforcement for that particular base, and the majority of those responsibilities are executed by military police officers.” The role of PMO is to maintain the security of the air station and ensure good order through enforcing regulations. The military police maintain constant vigilance over MCAS Beaufort, Laurel Bay, and Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island at all hours of the day and night to ensure the safety of its residents and visitors. “I want to thank each end every Marine for their hard work towards this achievement,” said Buck. “It is a credit to our entire base.”
