MWSD-31 prepares for Integrated Training Exercise Story and photos by: Lance Cpl. Ashley Phillips Staff Writer

Marine Wing Support Detachment 31 conducted field training aboard Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort to prepare for an upcoming exercise, Aug. 29-31. The three day field training exercise was conducted for the 4th Marine Regiment’s Integrated Training Exercise which will take place aboard Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms, Calif. “We are training now to make sure we provide the best support for the different flying squadrons as they go out and do their missions during the ITX,” said Sgt. Marcus Jackson, radio supervisor with MWSD-31. “Service is everything. Without communication the mission cannot be successful; the commander’s intent cannot be met.” “We are responsible for ensuring the units flying from MCAS Cherry Point, MCAS Yuma, and MCAS Beaufort have communication support,” said Gunnery Sgt. Christopher Hogue, the communications chief with MWSD-31. “We will have our wiremen set up telephone wires, cyber network guys set up the computers, and radiomen to support communication.” The emphasis of this training exercise was mission readiness. By preforming their missions and tasks here in a controlled environment, the unit made sure that every member understands their role in the mission. The see

Chaplain’s Corner

The Joys of Distinguished Visitors

By Chaplain William Holiman Command Chaplain, MCAS Beaufort How many of you enjoy having a distinguished visitor come to visit your work center? Sometimes we enjoy it when we get to show off our knowledge of the gear and get to talk about something we are passionate about. When I go around the shops visiting Marines and Sailors I usually find that to be true. Most of you really are knowledgeable and excited about what you do. Good on you! However, sometimes a distinguished visitor wants to come and see what we are doing, and that can be, well, a mess. We have to stop what we are really doing, clean up the shop, put on a clean uniform, have someone more senior than we are come inspect us first, maybe have a practice run of our speech or someone gives us a question to ask. Plus we make sure that everyone knows who is coming and how to announce that visitor. Over the years most of us will see the Secretary of the Navy, Commandant of the Marine Corps, a wide variety of General Officers, the base CO, the people from another echelon of command, your own CO and department head. Onboard ship in the Navy there is a quarterly inspection team that fans out all over the ship and some Sailor has to present the space, which had better be clean and have no discrepancies. Why do these people come to visit us? The easy answer is that they want us to see who they are. They want to express to us

exactly what their vision is. It is one thing to put the Commandant’s vision in writing and send it out to everyone. But the vision becomes alive when the Commandant shows up and talks to you about it. But that is only part of the answer. These visitors also want to look you in the eye and see who you are, too. They want to see where you work, what equipment you have, what you need, what things are really on your mind. This part is really important to all good leaders. Yes, they want you to know what they want, but they also really want to know what you want. Most will bring a staff officer who will write down all the questions. Back in the office they will compare questions from base to base or unit to unit. Once a four star general officer was visiting my base. I was in a bad mood, yes Chaplains can be in bad moods, and I was forced to ask a question by my chain of command. My question was fierce. The four star did not like my question. He stumbled through the answer. I transferred the next week to somewhere else. Lo and behold, he showed up there shortly thereafter. And you know what, he lead off his speech with my question! Oh, not by name of course, but he decided that the question really was a good one, and needed to be answered. So now it was part of his stump speech. He got the point and I felt much better about things. Sometimes what we say really makes a difference. Now you may wonder why the Chaplain would talk about DVs. Not only is an inter-

esting item, but it is also part of the Bible. One of the themes that runs through the Bible is the theme of God visiting us to look us in the eye, see who we are, what are we doing, what do we need, and also to show us who God is. For example, in Genesis God walks in the Garden of Eden looking for Adam and Eve. Later on, God visits Abraham, several times in fact. Once He says: “The outcry of Sodom and Gomorrah is indeed great, and their sin is exceedingly grave. I will go down now, and see if they have done entirely according to its outcry, which has come to Me, and if not, I will know.” In another place it says: “The best of them is like a brier, the most upright worse than a thorn hedge. The day God visits you has come, the day your watchmen sound the alarm.” (Micah 7:4) Those two visits were pretty fierce! On the other hand, Jesus and James both speak of visiting the poor, widows and orphans. For example, in Matthew 25:36 Jesus says, “I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’ In these cases people are visiting other people to see what they need and then providing it. So next time you think about DVs coming to visit, you might want to think, “They are coming to look after me!” And sometimes, you will want to visit to look after other Marines, too. Visitors, distinguished or otherwise, can be a joy! And yes, sometimes visits can be fierce when we are doing the wrong things.

Marines get tech savvy with the Marine Corps Mobile Application Challenge Story by: Lance Cpl. Ashley Phillips Staff Writer

The Marine Corps is hosting the first annual Marine Corps Mobile Application Challenge online, now through Nov. 5. During this time, Marines can submit applications they create to be used by the Marine Corps. The MCMAC will accept creative and innovative applications to support the mission of Marine Corps Enterprise Network. According to the MARADMIN website, the mission of the Marine Corps Enterprise Network, enterprise applications, and mission systems is to support forward deployed warfighting needs via technological investments. To enter an application into MCMAC, Marines must first email a letter of intent to mcmac@usmc.mil by Sept. 30. A template is available at https://mceits.usmc.mil/sites/MCMAC/default.aspx. Next, Marines will develop their application; submit their source code, sample data, instructions to compile their application, and a one minute video describing how their application functions via the MCMAC website. Additional information and technical instructions can be found on the MCMAC website. The submissions are due no later than Nov. 5. There are three categories of apps that can be submitted - quality of life, physical fitness, and warfighting apps. Quality of life apps can address liberty, food service, permanent change of station information, training, financial management, safety and force preservation, or other areas supporting quality of life of Marines and their families.

Physical fitness spans the spectrum of fitness and nutrition including a workout of the day, combat fitness test/physical fitness test training curriculum, healthy eating, or applications that touch on physiological health. The warfighting needs category contributes to warfighting functions, situational awareness, content presentation, communications, coordination, collaboration, or control in expeditionary environments. Applications then will be evaluated by a Marine Corps team beginning 16 November. Three applications will be selected and the winning participants will be announced by Nov 21. The winners will be offered the opportunity to attend and be recognized at the Charleston Defense Contractors Association Government and Industry Partnership Conference in Charleston, S.C. Dec. 7 to 9. Headquarters Marine Corps will fully fund TAD orders. Orders must be approved by the command of the winner based on impact to unit mission. Submissions containing inappropriate material, sexual, violent, abusive, harassing, offensive, or insulting content will be disqualified. Use of person personally identifiable information (PII), sensitive, restricted, or classified data is not authorized for this challenge. For additional information about the MCMAC, software development guidelines, rules, and other event details, please refer to the MCMAC website at https://mceits.usmc.mil/ sites/MCMAC/default.aspx or send an email request to MCMAC@usmc. mil.

exercise was a small practice of what they will do on a much larger scale in the ITX. “In the radio section we run long range high frequency radios and close range very high frequency radios,” said Jackson. “It’s important that we train here, get as much knowledge as possible before we get into real situations.” The ITX is scheduled to run for five weeks during mid October through November. MWSD-31 communications will be providing communication for the aviation combat element throughout the ITX. “The Integrated Training Exercise will have multiple units coming together to do joint training to prepare whatever missions we might see in the future,” said Hogue. “We could deploy at any time. With this we can work out all the kinks before ITX.” This year will be different for MWSD-31. They will be providing the same communication support with eleven Marines. That is about half the amount of people they have had in the past. “This ITX will be new because typically a squadron has supported communication, but now we are a detachment,” said Hogue. “We will have half the manpower. Including myself we only have twenty one Marines. Only half of us will be going. It will be a challenge, a learning experience.” The field training provided the knowledge and experience that will help the Marines provide the best communication support they can when they land in Twentynine Palms. They are scheduled to do more field training this month to continue to prepare for the integrated training exercise.

Marine F-35 Operational Tests increases combat capability

Photo By Cpl. Aria Herrera

An F-35B Lightning II with Marine Operational Test & Evaluation Squadron 1 (VMX-1) on the flight line with an AIM-120 Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile prepares for a round of Operational Test missile shots. The three F-35B aircraft and 75 U.S. Marines along with 21 test personnel from the JSF Operational Test Team at Edwards that deployed to Eglin AFB, FL., from August 9 to September 1, 2016 completed multiple engineering runs in preparation for the expenditure of five AIM-120 missiles and one Guided Bomb Unit-12 (GBU-12) LASER guided bomb.

EGLIN AIR FORCE BASE, FL. — Three F-35B aircraft and 75 U.S. Marines from Marine Operational Test & Evaluation Squadron 1 (VMX-1) F-35B Detachment at Edwards Air Force Base , CA, along with 21 test personnel from the JSF Operational Test Team at Edwards deployed to Eglin AFB, FL., from August 9 to September 1, 2016 to complete Operational Test missile shots of the AIM-120 Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile (AMRAAM). These employment scenarios differed from those conducted in Developmental Test in that they were specifically designed around operational employment scenarios with the aim of further validating and developing tactics, techniques, and procedures for all three variants of the F-35. “Due to the commonality of the F-35 mission systems and weapons, everything we learned during this detachment directly translates to combat capabilities for the Marine Corps, our sister services, and partner countries,” Lt. Col. Richard Rusnok, VMX-1 F-35B Detachment Officer-in-Charge, said of the test missile shoot. The detachment completed multiple engineering runs in preparation for the expenditure of five AIM-120 missiles and one Guided Bomb Unit-12 (GBU-12) LASER guided bomb. The operational test

team developed complex air-to-air and airto-ground scenarios and the F-35 weapons system performed as expected to deliver weapons on target. On day one of live fire testing, the team was able to shoot two missiles on two separate test set-ups within 12 minutes—an exceptional level of efficiency in a test environment. Another test mission involved an F-35B dropping a GBU-12 and supporting it with LASER guidance while simultaneously engaging a QF-16 drone. Both weapons successfully guided to their targets. “This was a phenomenally successful deployment that was made possible by the close coordination between the JSF Operational Test Team, U.S. Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps and industry,” Rusnok said. During the past year, VMX-1’s F-35B Detachment has been involved in multi-

ple high profile events including: • Block 2B, 3i, and 3F Developmental Test support • Block 2B Air-to-Surface Weapon Delivery Evaluation • Global Position System (GPS) testing • A deployment to the United Kingdom in support of the Royal International Air Tattoo and Farnborough International Airshow Upcoming events for VMX-1’s F-35B Detachment include: • Naval Integrated Fire Control — Counter Air (NIFC-CA) testing • Developmental Test Period 3 aboard USS AMERICA “I want to congratulate the VMX-1 / JOTT team that did a magnificent job

planning and executing this OT missile shoot,” Col. George Rowell, VMX-1 commanding officer said. “It is a huge achievement for the squadron and the F-35B program. We look forward to many more opportunities to provide positive impact.” Marine Operational Test & Evaluation Squadron 1 is charged with testing the full range of Marine Aviation Combat Element (ACE) Operational Test and Evaluation including MV-22, CH-53E/K, F-35B, UH-1Y, AH-1W/Z, Command and Control Systems, and Unmanned Aerial Systems. VMX-1 is headquartered at MCAS Yuma, AZ, with detachments at Marine Corps Air Station New River, NC; West Palm Beach, FL; and Edwards AFB, CA VMX-1 was formerly called VMX-22. The squadron’s name changed on May 13, 2016.

Alvin Pujols 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit

JOINT BASE PEARL HARBOR-HICKAM, Hawaii — The Fighting 13th has been forward deployed for almost seven months and in that time has faced many adversities such as the bone-chilling cold in South Korea and the sweltering heat in Djibouti, but the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit has met each challenge head on. The 13th MEU, embarked at the Boxer Amphibious Ready Group, is currently transiting the Pacific Ocean during the final phases of Western Pacific Deployment 16-1. After six months of pre-deployment training off the coast of southern California, the Fighting 13th departed for WESTPAC 16-1 from Naval Base San Diego, February 12, 2016 rolling into sustainment training in Hawaii just a few days later. The MEU was able to conduct training to sharpen the skills of each of its major subordinate commands, said Sgt. Vanessa Polanco, a Marine Air-Ground Task Force planner with the MEU. The ground combat element conducted various raids and live-fire ranges. The air combat element conducted close-air support drills and helicopter support team drills. The logistic combat element provided support in the forms of ammunition, medical care and transportation. The training helped ensure the MEU functioned well as a MAGTF. “During our time in Hawaii, we conducted military operations in urban terrain training, multiservice patrolling classes and jungle warfare training,” said Sgt. William A. Randle, an infantry squad leader with the 13th MEU The sustainment training in Hawaii was the last time the MEU would see American soil. The next stop was Exercise Ssang Yong 16 in Pohang, South Korea, one of the world’s largest multinational gatherings of naval vessels. “After an amphibious landing ashore, the MEU conducted explosive ordnance disposal range sweeps in partnership with the 31st MEU, medical evacuation team drills and live-fire ranges,” said Polanco. Once ashore, the Marines faced below freezing temperatures. That adversity didn’t hinder the explosive ordnance disposal team from completing their mission. “During Ssang Yong 16 we conducted a range sweep of the Su Song Ri range,” said Chief Warrant Officer 2 Timothy Harrison, the officer in charge of the explosive ordnance disposal team with the 13th MEU. “Our purpose was to locate and dispose of unexploded ordnance

within the maneuver area so [a MEU infantry company] could safely conduct their live-fire training. During the sweep we worked with the [31st MEU’s EOD team] and located more than 300 pieces of unexploded ordnance totaling more than 200 pounds net explosive weight.” While the Fighting 13th’s EOD detachment swept a range for unexploded ordnance with the 31st MEU’s EOD detachment, the 13th MEU’s Light Armored Reconnaissance Company had the opportunity to work with the Republic of Korea Marines. “We communicated with the ROK Marines over radio and cell phone and once we arrived it was a simple meet and greet,” said 1st Sgt. Tommy H. Choe, the LAR company 1st sergeant with the MEU. “We gave classes on our light armored vehicles, its capabilities and limitations, and what each of our Marine’s function was within the unit.” The ROK Marines showed a genuine interest in regards to the LAR Marines’ gear, diversity and job details, Choe said. “Our Marines reciprocated the curiosity with their own. The whole experience was a good one with both sides getting to learn a bit about each other and having a lasting memory of the experience.” Once Exercise Ssang Yong 16 was completed, the Boxer Amphibious Ready Group steamed away from South Korea toward more tropic climes. Some Marines quickly regretted wishing for warmer weather, as they soon found themselves operating in places with temperatures over 100 degrees in Africa and the Middle East. “The weather provided a different training environment than we were used to,” said Sgt. Gregory Campbell, a light armored vehicle commander with the 13th MEU. “It was a mountainous ter-

rain that was hot and humid. One of the saving graces was the ability to [work out] on the beach and when possible in the water because it gave us the chance to cool down after a hot day.” The terrain and weather provided various challenges to many aspects of the training and operations the MEU conducted. “While in Djibouti, Marines with the Light Armored Reconnaissance Company conducted light armored vehicle gunnery, day and night patrols, and squad and fire-team sized live-fire ranges,” said Capt. Nathaniel R. Jones, LAR company commander with the 13th MEU. The ranges and operations in the extreme heat proved to be challenging but the Marines were resilient and patient when it came to maintaining their equipment. “The extreme heat limited the amount of time we could spend on vehicle maintenance,” said Chief Warrant Officer 2 Zachary McManigal, the maintenance officer with the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit’s logistic combat element. “If a Humvee was extremely hot, we would have to wait for the sun to go down in order to trouble shoot what was wrong with the vehicle in the first place. The Marines worked anywhere from five to ten hour days to ensure proper maintenance was taking place.” The MEU went from the hot mountains of Africa to the desert heat of the Middle East, where the Marines lost the mountainous terrain but gained desert sands. Again they adapted. “The 13th MEU conducted collective skills training for the air combat element, ground combat element and logistical combat element, as well as focusing on chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear decontamination and culminating in a combined arms live-fire

exercise,” said Capt. Matthew P. Brousseau, an operations officer with the 13th MEU. While the majority of the MEU participated in large scale exercises in Africa and the Middle East, others provided support for Operation Inherent Resolve. “The MEU’s Harrier detachment spent from June 20, 2016 until July 10, 2016 supporting Operation Inherent Resolve,” said Maj. Andrew D’Ambrogi, the Harrier detachment officer in charge with the 13th MEU. “We provided close-air support during operations in the U.S. Central Command area of operations. We had five Harriers while in Qatar and were flying eight hours a day while we were a part of the operation.” As the air combat element provided support during OIR other Marines were able to exchange knowledge with foreign militaries. “While in [the Middle East] we worked with the [foreign militaries] and exchanged basic instruction with longrange weapon systems and new combat optics,” said Sgt. Timothy Stewart, a scout sniper with the 13th MEU. Marines were operating in many countries and eventually had the opportunity to not only exchange knowledge but demonstrate the MEU’s capabilities to partner nations. “While in Malaysia we displayed the MEU’s capabilities to the Malaysian armed services by conducting call for fire drills with actual aircraft,” said Sgt. David Suyatokamoto, a joint fires observer with the 13th MEU. Throughout the duration of Western Pacific Deployment 16-1 the MEU has operated in 20 different countries, participating in various large scale exercises including Ssang Yong 16 in Pohang, South Korea and Eager Lion 16 in Jordan. It has expended over 65 tons of aviation ordnance and 400,000 rounds of ammunition. The aircraft have flown more than 6,500 hours transporting more than 11,000 passengers and more than 1,000,000 pounds of cargo. The MEU assisted in the protection of the President and sacrificed its own free time during ports of call to volunteer at special needs schools and soup kitchens. The Fighting 13th has added to its legacy over the last 6 months and as it prepares to transit through the U.S. 3rd Fleet area of operations back home it will continue to sharpen its skills and remain ever vigilant should it be called upon to take action.
