Fires raise safety concerns Cpl. Barry Melton Combat Correspondent

House fires on two consecu- tive days at Kaneohe Bay last week has prompted Federal Fire Department officials and the K- Bay Family Rousing Office and Safety Office to remind residents the importance of fire safety.

Though no one plans to have a fire in their homes, planning to implement guidelines and pre- vention methods in the homes could save a barracks room, a housing unit, or even someone's life.

"The two recent fires have displaced family members of our military community," said George Crowder, a fire protec-

tion specialist at the safety office. "As custodians of our environment, we are empowered to protect our places of abode."

"People just have to be more careful," said Eddie Kerr, the chief inspector with Family Housing. "We need to think before we do certain things."

The first fire occurred in the early hours of June 16 in K-Bay family housing, according to Kerr. The fire was reportedly stemmed from a short circuit of an over-loaded electrical outlet.

Kerr said, this could've been prevented by using a surge pro- tector or unplugging certain items when they're not in use.

The second fire, a blaze at a

K-Bay home Thursday, is still under investigation, but is sus- pected to have started in the liv- ing room, according to Moke Freitas, a fire inspector with the Federal Fire Department.

Crowder said, according to reports compiled by the United States Fire Administration, nearly 5,000 people die in the United States each year as a result of fires and more than 25,000 are injured. More than two million fires arc reported annually and cause an estimated $9.4 million in fire damages.

Some ways residents can practice fire safety include:

Hospital corpsmen celebrate 101st birthday Lance Cpl. Otto C. Pio II-Musts Combat Correspondent

In addition to the corps which unites all Marines alike into a highly effective organization with high standards, there is another corps which is close at heart to Marines - the Navy Hospital Corps.

Kaneohe Bay's hospital corpsmen gathered together with distinguished guests to attend the 101st Navy Hospital Corps birthday cake-cutting ceremony Thursday at the Pop Warner Field aboard Kaneohe Bay.

"The ceremony is a remembrance of what we mean to Marines here at Kaneohe Bay," said Petty Officer 1st Class Scott Char land, hospital corpsman for 3rd Marine Regiment. "It also reminds corpsmen of the legacy that has been created before them."

In addition to the cake-cutting ceremony, there was a special recognition guest in attendance, Robert R. Ingram, former corpsman who recently received a Medal of Honor.

"This medal represents the individuals, alive and dead, of C Company, (1st Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment)," said

Ingram. Ingram served in the Navy for approximately five years,

one of which he served in Vietnam. His actions to help Marines on the battlefield In Vietnam while sustaining four significant wounds earned him the Medal of Honor.

There have been numerous corpsmen, Medal of Honor recipients such as Ingram, who have been commended for their efforts to help out Marines and Sailors, said Petty Officer 1st Class Fred Kasper, hospital corpsman for 3rd Marine Regiment.

Kasper said corpsmen have a long history and tradition of giving their lives in an attempt to save others, including enemies. Kasper said corpsmen are not permitted to shoot the enemy, rather they are expected to help anyone who is injured, including enemies. In turn, this makes it a more devastating loss for corpsmen to be killed since their true mission is only to care for the injured and not fight.

"I love being a hospital corpsman," said Kasper. "There's so much satisfaction, so much pride."

Major Gen. Joseph T Anderson, the commanding general for 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, congratulates Marines from Marine Helicopter Training Squadron 301 after they received the Chief of Naval Operations Safety Award.

K-Bay squadron rated top in Naval services Lance Cpl. Otto C. Plell-Musts Combat Correspondent

Marine Helicopter Training Squadron 301 was presented the Chief of Naval Operations Safety Award at Hangar 102 Friday by Maj. Gen. Joseph T. Anderson, the Commanding General for 1st Marine Aircraft Wing.

The annual award is presented to a distinguished squadron from the Naval services, Navy and Marine Corps wide, for above average safety programs and safety awareness, according to Capt. Michael C. Belcher, director of safety and standardization.

"I think this award was well deserved, by a unit that places strong emphasis on safety and its programs," said Belcher. "It came gs the result of a lot of hard work by the Marines of HMT 301."

The squadron was responsible for writing the Aviation Support Element, Kaneohe, Aircraft CoordinatiOn Training order that was submitted to the 1st Marine Wing to use as a template for the Wing order, according to Belcher.

This Aircraft Coordination Training order is a concept for aircrew training by integrating members of the aircrew to form a safer and mission-effective flying unit, according to Belcher.

Belcher also said the squadron has developed initiatives in Operational Risk Management, used on two deployments, and is currently incorporated into daily flight operations.

And according to Staff Sgt. John C. McGilvrey, enlisted Naval Air Training and Operating Procedures Standardization air crew monitor/instructor, the squadron has had more than 100,000 mishap- free flight hours.

"We put safety before all else," said McGilvrey, who's been with HMT-301 for the past six months. "Being a training command, we're responsible for giving Marines a basic foundation of the skills they need, and safety is a big part of that. We have to put a lot of emphasis on safety and doing things right the first time."

Sergeant Major's Corner

Marines are Ambassadors in Green Sgt. Maj. Robert W. Holub MarForPac Sergeant Major

Years ago "Leatherneck" nmgazine ran a special issue called "Ambassadors in Green." It chron- icled the Marines in Vietnam defend- ing freedom and winning the "hearts and minds" of the Vietnamese peo-

ple. The magazine showed photos of civic action pro- jects that were done in the villages along with photos of Marines in combat. The reason I suspect this issue was made was to show mailers, that besides the Marine Corps' capability to destroy, we Marines as Americans also had the capability to build.

When I say to build, I am talking about both the physical sense of building a church or digging a well, as well as the sense of building gotxl will with those we protect. As history has shown us, it is far easier to do the former than the latter. I think the purpose of the issue was to show readers, and to remind Marines, that even though the. United States is a superpower, we're not the "Ugly Americans" that our enemies, both at home and abroad, were j)ortraying us to he.

That tent Ambassadors in Green has always stuck with me, not only in its application in the jungles of Vietnam, but also as it applies to our present day Marine Corps in our dealings in the countries we serve, visit and twin in, and in die more Mali I (X) million square miles that make up Marine Forces Pacific. All of us who have the honor to be Marines are Ambassadors in Green for the Force, our Corps and

our country by virtue of our everyday contact with citizens of the host nations in which we visit or are stationed in.

When people think of incidents that have hurt our relations with the civilian populatioi is of our host nations, they think only of the most serious ones, those incidents that grabbed the biggest headlines. The senseless rape of a young Okinawan school girl and the tragic death of a pedestrian by ti Marine who was drunk driving are but two examples of crimes committed by Marines that have damaged the reputa- tion of the 99.9 percent of good Marines that serve each day with honor and respect for our hosts.

As you can see from the repercus- sions of those incidents, when a couple of our Marines step out of line, through either negligence or design, there can be serious damage done to nation's foreign policy and, damage to our good standing with the local people we need to support us in the host nation.

I know the vast majority of our Marines will never commit a crime, but even the best Marines can do damage a.> our country and to Our Corps by being rude and abrasive in their dealings with local citizens.

"Fhe best example 1 can give you of this type of rude behavior that can, over a period or time, destroy the good will between our hosts and the United States is that of a Marine either overseas for the first time, or an "old salt" who is in a foul mood. Picture this Marine, who is in a bad mood to begin with, trying to place an order for food someplace overseas. Our hero is in a foul mood because he has been sent overseas, and he is taking it out on everyone, in this case the lady who is taking his order using halting English.

Because he is looking to take out

I think it gave us a good chance to voice our opinions and make positive changes in the office. Opt Thomas M. Land, Finance Office

his anger on anyone, the lady bears the brunt of his anger. He thinks by talking louder or coarser he is going to be understood. He begins speaking to her in a manner in which no decent, mature individual would speak to another human being. He is ticked off at the world because he is overseas, and he is acting like a jerk.

What is worse is if he has a little rank on his collar and is observed by junior Marines. Those young impres- sionable men and women take his behavior as the green light to act in a like manner in their dealings with the locals as well.

Now think about it. First of all, the lady or gentleman who is taking your order overseas probably speaks 11w more English then you speak the host nation's language, so who is the less educated one in this picture? Second, that lady taking your order did not issue you orders overseas. Third, if you had a division of Marines from another country stationed or visiting in your hometown and you caught some of them making fun of or acting rudely to your mom, dad or sister, how much would you like it'? What would be your opinion of them and their coun- ty'? A little different when you think about it in those terms, ain't it'?

You see, none of us have to commit a murder or a rape to chip away at the good will our host nations feel for us. Over a period of time, you can do more to damage that good will by your everyday behavior you're not careful.

Abusive behavior on the pail of Marines can cause the citizens of host countries to reassess why they allow

their governments to allow us to train in their countries. If you are not careful you strut to see training oppoituni- ties disappear as more and more coun-

tries close their doors to us. You also see yourself spending more on the ships making holes in the ocean because more and more ports are closed to us.

As the battalion sergezuit major for 1st Battalion, 9th Marines, and the I I th Marine Expeditionary Unit sergeant major, belere we set sail on deployments I used to speak to all hands prior to dewing km their behavior on cruise. I reminded them not to treat girls they met overseas as "ladies of the evening," and not every cab driver or merchant was trying to rip their' off.

I warned them to be careful and use the "buddy system" on liberty, but also enjoy themselves and not embamiss the United States or our Marine Corps. I told them that by simply conducting themselves as they would want Marines from another country to behave in their hometown they could be those Ambassadors in Green for our country and our Corps, and hopefully make some new friends for our country instead of new enemies.

As new training opportunities open up frw the Force, I charge all of you - especially those of you in leadership positions -to make sure we are not perceived as Ugly Americans either by foreign citizens or by our own. If you see a Marine behaving in a manner that will bring discredit to our country and our Corps, step in and correct that Marine's behavior.

We have a unique responsibility as Force Marines to influence the percep- tion of pe,ople in more than 43 different countries in our area of responsibility. By using some common sense we cal ensure not only Marines, but all Americans, are welcome in all of them.

Semper Fi.

Commandant bids farewell to Corps Gen. Charles C. Krulak Commandant of the Marine Corps

From my earliest days, I was always awed by the character of the Marine Corps, by the passion and love that inspired the sacrifices' of Marines like my father and his friends. As a young boy, I admired the warriors and thinkers who joined our family for a meal or a visit ... Marines like "How lin' Mad" Smith, Lemuel C. Shepherd, Gerald C. Thomas, and Keith B. McCutcheon. I wondered about the Gen. Krulak source of their pride, their selflessness, and their sense of purpose. Now, at the twilight of my career, I understand those Marines. I know that they were driven by love for the institution to which they had dedicated their lives and by the awesome responsibility they felt to the Marines who shared their devotion and sacrifice. Today, that same motivation burns deep within the heart of each of us. The ethos of our Corps, purchased so dearly by these heroes of old, reaches into our souls and challenges us to strive tirelessly for excel- lence in all that we do. It profoundly influences the actions of every Marine that has ever stood on the yellow foot- prints at our Recruit Depots or taken the oath as an Officer of Marines.

The ethos of our Corps is that of the warrior. It is defined by two simple qual- ities ... our two Touchstones. The first is our Touchstone of Valor. When we are summoned to battle, we 'don our helmets and flak jackets; we march to the sound of the guns; we fight and we win - Guaranteed. The second is our Touchstone of Value,I. We hold ourselves and our institution to the highest stan-

dards ... to our core values of Honor, Courage, and Commitment. These two Touchstones are inextricably and forever linked. They form the bedrock of our success and, indeed, of our very exis- tence.

Our Touchstone of Valor is the honor roll of our Corps' history. Bladensburg, Bull Run, Cuzco Well, Belleau Wood, Guadalcanal, Tarawa, Iwo Jima, Inchon, the Chosin Reservoir, Hue City, Kuwait ... the blood and sacrifice of Marines in these battles, and countless others, have been commemorated in gilded script and etched forever on the black granite base of the Marine Corps War Memorial. The names of these places now serve as con- stant reminders of our sacred responsibility to our Nation and to those whose sacrifices have earned the Marine Corps a place among the most honored of military organizations. The memory of the Marines who fought in these battles lives in us and in the core values of our pre- cious Corps.

To Marines, Honor, Courage, and Commitment are not simply words or a bumper sticker slogan. They reflect our deepest convictions and dramatically shape everything that we do. They are central to our efforts to "Make Marines," men and women of character who can be entrusted to safeguard our Nation and its ideals in the most demanding of environments. We imbue Marines with our core values from their first moments, in our Corps because we know that Marines, not weapons, win battles. We also know that success on the battlefield and the support of the citizens whose interests we represent depend on our ability to make moral and ethical deci- sions under the extreme stress of combat ... or in the conduct of our daily lives.

As an institution, we have had to fight hard to maintain our standards. To some,

they may seem old-fashioned, out-of- step with society, or perhaps even "extremist," but we know that our high standards are the lifebloOd of the Corps, so we have held the line! In this regard, what individual Marines arc doing everyday counts far more than anything that is done in Washington. The standards of our Corps are not simply main- tained by generals, colonels, and sergeants major, but, far more importantly, by leaders throughout the Corps, at every level. The Marine conviction that Sewer Fidelis is a way of life, not just a motto, speaks powerfully to the citizens that we serve. [t also unites us with our fellow Marines, past and present - inspiring us to push harder, to reach further, and to reject the very notion of failure or compromise.

Sustained and strengthened by the ethos of our Corps, you have accom- plished a great deal during the past four years. I have been humbled to be part of your achievements and witness to your selfless devotion. Time and again, Marines distinguished themselves in contingencies around the world, across the spectrum of conflict. Marines from across the Total Force were the first to fight, the first to help, and the first to show America's flag - consistently demonstrating our resolve and readiness to win when called to action. With the involvement of the Fleet Marine Force and input from the entire Corps, the Warfighting Laboratory has looked hard at the 21st Century strategic environment. Marines "stole a march" on change by testing new concepts and emerging technologies, exploring new tools for developing leaders and decision makers, and experimenting in the "Three Block War." Our recruiters, drill instructors, and small-unit leaders have imple- mented the Transformation Process and

are recruiting, training, and developing the "Strategic Corporals" for tomorrow's conflicts. Led by Marines at the Combat Development Command, we have deep- ened our understanding of Operational Maneuver From The Sea, its enabling concepts and technologies, as well as its many challenges. The men and women serving in the many thankless billets at Headquarters Marine Corps and in the joint arena have developed and articulat- ed our requirements for the future and have secured the resources to translate Operational Maneuver From The Sea into a reality. Our supporting establish- ment, at every post and station, has epit- omized selflessness and dedication while providing for our readiness requirements. All these things are important - and they are the accomplishments of every Marine. None of them, however, are as significant as maintaining our hands on the twin Touchstones of our Corps.

The words of my father ring as true today as when he first wrote them over fifty years ago. "We exist today - we flourish today - not because of what we know we are, or what we know we can do, but because of what the grass- roots of our country believes we are and believes we can do .. The American people believe that Marines are down- right good for the country; that the Marines are masters of a form of unfail- ing alchemy which converts unoriented youths into proud, self-reliant stable citizens - citizens into whose hands the nation's affairs may safely be entrusted ... And, likewise, should the people ever lose that conviction - as a result of our failure to meet their high - almost spiri- tual - standards, the Marine Corps will quickly disappear."

May God bless each and every one of you and may God bless our Corps!

Junior Marines get taste of leadership Cpl. Matt Schafer MCB Camp S.D. Butler PAO

MARINE CORPS BASE CAMP S. D. BUTLER, Okinawa, Japan -The Marines from K Co., 3rd Battalion., 7th Marine Regiment, recently spent three days conducting squad training exercises here, giving a few of its junior Marines their first taste of leadership.

During the training, lance corporals in each squad assumed the duties of fire team leaders and squad leaders during patrols.

"We're basically taking the new guys out and show- ing them how to lead Marines, said. Cpl. James L. Brooks, fire team leader, 3/7. "We have to teach them how to lead now so they will be able to train new Marines when the time comes. We can't have Marines not knowing what they're doing because their (Marines) will lose confidence in their leadership."

In taking the helm as leaders, the lance corporals found themselves calling the shots and carrying out plans.

Later, they had the chance to conduct night patrols. The challenge of darkness added a new dimension to the decision-making process.

"This was a real good experience, and it's going to help when I pick up my own squad," added Lance Cpl. Michael J. Dracoulis, patrol leader. "1 know I need to learn a lot about leading a patrol, and this will help me in the long run."

Explosive Ordnance Disposal Marines prepare for emergencies Lance Cpl. Otto C. Plellattete Combat Correspondent

The Marine Corps has been called "America's 9-1-1 force," yet there's a special group of Marines that serve as a 9-1-1 for the Corps -

those in the Explosive Ordnance Disposal field.

Currently, there are only a few EOD Marines in support of MCB Hawaii, but their jobs are nonetheless vital for the safety of Marines and Sailors here.

"Wherever there's an explosive being fired," said Staff Sgt. Carl Holden, MCB Hawaii EOD technician, "you need EOD."

Explosive Ordnance Disposal Marines are called upon whenever there are possible dangers with ordnance, ranging from an M- I 6A2 service rifle 5.56 mm round to a nuclear bomb, according to Gunnery Sgt. Thomas Gilbert, EOD chief for MCB Hawaii.

In simple terms, EOD Marines are in charge of taking care of anything that "goes boom," said Gilbert. For that matter, the EOD personnel are also called upon when things that are supposed to explode don't explode as expected.

During the six months he's been assigned to MCB Hawaii, Gilbert said, there haven't been any serious incidents that F.OD Marines have been called

upon, but they're always on the alert and ready for any dangers that arise as a result of ordnance.

There have been instances for the EOD Marines to put their training to work, however. They were called upon to collect brass from ordnance that washed ashore said Holden. The leathernecks worked with federal agents to blow up the explosives out at sea.

And during another incident, Holden said EOD was called upon to help local authorities fire off seized fireworks that were considered illegal.

For the most part though, EOD Marines remain busy by keeping up on the latest equipment they can use to dis- arm explosives and secure areas from any ordnance dangers, and they spend time learning about new potential dangers involving ordnance. They also set up possible scenarios that may actually arise at any time, and familiarize themselves with aircraft that transports ordnance.

According to Gilbert, the recent wel- coming of P-3C "Orion" Navy squadrons has challenged the EOD leathernecks to learn more about the ordnance precautions for aircraft.

And while K-Bay aircraft are in flight, EOD Marines are on the alert for any possible problems or accidents, because if there are any dangers con-

cerning ordnance, they're immediately called onto the scene.

The base EOD Marines also have the support of Combat Service Support Group 3 EOD Marines. Together, they work as a team. The base's EOD Marines also work with the other services around the island, as they train for possible dangerous scenarios, according to Gilbert.

Sometimes, Gilbert said, K-Bay's EOD Marines work with the Air Force to conduct range sweeps and clean up impact areas such as that at K-Bay's Ulupa' u Crater.

The EOD field at K-Bay is looking for interested Marines, corporals and sergeants, thinking about having a blast by reenlisting and making an explosive lateral move into EOD.

Although there are certain dangers for EOD Marines as they carry on their day to day work, Gilbert said there are also several benefits of working in the elite field.

"You get to work in a small shop with good guys; intelligent and professional Marines," said Gilbert.

"R's enjoyable to come to work," added Gilbert. "Every day brings some- thing different."

For more information about becom- ing an EOD Marine, call your career planner.

For little Taylor, 5-month old daughter of Petty Officer 1st Class John Frees, it has a deeper meaning, "Daddy's coming home!" Filled with excitement and jubilation, the Skinny Dragon family members eagerly awaited their loved ones' return from six months of arduous work overseas.

Beginning in June, Skinny Dragon personnel began arriving at their new home alter being deployed to Diego Garcia and other sites around the globe for the past six months. Skinny Dragon One, Commanding Officer Cmdr. McWilliam "Mac" V. Bollman Jr., arrived with the last of the VP-4 Skinny Dragons June I I .

Upon reaching Diego Garcia, many corn- bat aircrews and maintenance personnel touched down and immediately departed to detachment sites in the Arabian Gull to take part in Operation Desert Fox. The Skinny Dragons proved to he an invaluable asset in the region both during the operation and in the months that .followed. The squadron also innovated new uses for the newest asset to the fleet, the Anti-Surface Warfare Improvement Program version of the P-3C aircraft.

Another real-world operation that the Skinny Dragons took part in while on deployment was Operation Allied Force in Kosovo. On April 11, an aircrew, maintenance support personnel and two Anti- Surface Warfare Improvement Program aircraft were sent to Sigonela, Sicily, to support

Sixth Fleet operations and Operation Allied Force. Sixth Fleet, and the Lancers of VP-10 from Brunswick, Maine, were extremely impressed with VP-4 Crew 10's knowledge of the Anti-Surface Warfare Improvement Program aircraft and how to maximize its utilization in combat operations.

This raw display of the mighty Orion's capabilities during Operations Desert Fox and Allied Force did not go unnoticed by the senior. military leadership. Army General Shelton, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, specifically mentioned the superb role that Patrol Squadron Four's Anti-Surface Warfare Improvement Program P-3Cs were providing in the combat environments of Iraq and Bosnia.

Operating from six sites throughout the

Fifth, Sixth and Seventh FleetS posed numerous logistics challenges for the personnel and aircraft of VP-4. Maritime Surveillance Exercise 1999 marked the first series of joint exercises between. the Philippines and the U.S. since the closing of the U.S. Naval facil- ities at Subic Bay in 1991. Infinite Shadow `99 represented the first military exercise with Jordan, Egypt and the U.S. participating together, and Tandum 'Thrust '99 saw the first live-fire Maverick missile shot from an Anti- Surface Warfare Improvement Program aircraft and the first P-3 Maverick shot in Seventh Fleet.

The Skinny Dragons are proud to return to their families and new home in Kaneohe, Bay knowing that they made a difference. And, by the way. Taylor, your daddy's home!

Summer brings safety concerns Pfc. Roman Yank Combo, Correspondent

Summertime has come to MCB Hawaii, Kaneohe Bay and while the kids are out of school and people are on vacation, safety remains an issue for all.

Some of the main safety concerns for the base run from riding bikes, skateboards or rollerblades, to hold- ing weekend barbecues', obeying curfews and taking part in water recreation, according to Master Sgt. Robert E. Lawson, staff noncommis- sioned officer for base safety.

The place to ride hikes is in the street, for rollerbladers and skate- boarders, the place to ride is the skate park, Lawson said.

"With school out, thoughts of recreation and fun and being with

their friends comes in the minds of all youngsters," said Lawson.

Lawson added that people should never have so much fun that safety is forgotten.

Base residents must also be aware of the closing of Barbers Point and Naval personnel moving to the base, according to Lawson. This has added to the amount of traffic on the streets of K-Bay.

Some ways to avoid problems for drivers and pedestrians are, drivers should plan for delays on trips and also pay attention to their surroundings.

Kids out enjoying time on bikes, skateboards or rollerblades should remember to wear a helmet. Cyclists need to ride with the flow of traffic and obey all traffic laws. One of those regulations includes stopping

at stop signs, according to Lawson. There is also a curfew for all juve-

niles on base. For children 16- years old or younger, there is a 10 p.m. curfew Monday through Friday, according to Sgt. Michael Barrett. an accident and investigation military police officer for MP company. On weekends the curfew is 11 p.m.

"The only exception is if the juve- nile is corning from a scheduled (base) event,- said Barrett, "like teen dances held on base."

Other activities that start up in the summer are barbecues. "Each summer an aspiring chef will try his hand at food ala flambe' (over an open fire)," said Lawson.

After a clay in the sun, some people go for a dip at one of the beaches aboard K-Bay. Unfortunately,

each year several Marines or their family members get injured or killed in diving incidents, according to Lawson.

Water safety is a big concern, according to Dino Leonard, assistant manager at Semper Fit Water Safety.

Leonard said that the best way to avoid any problems in the water is to abide by flags, signs and the lifeguards at the beaches. Questions one might have can usually be answered by the lifeguards at the water facility.

"Hawaii is the vacation spot of the world." said Lawson. "There arc numerous activities to enjoy, they just need to he enjoyed in a safe manner.

"A sale and healthy summer is a happy summer," Lawson added.

cords and overloaded circuits. These can cause sparks or cause a short circuit. Never run cords through door- ways, under carpets or use cords tacked to a wall.

Also, air conditioning units should always be approved by the Housing Office before installed and should be plugged into a dedicated circuit.

Be conscientious of where cigarettes and cigarS are extinguished. Hot ashes when dropped in bed or a couch or chair can smolder and catch fire hours after they were displaced. Also, ash trays should be cleaned out

Never keep paint, thinner, solvent. gasoline. or other flammable substances inside the home. They should also he stored away from heat and direct sunlight.

Keep all matches and lighters stored in safe places 'away from children. A curious youngster could cause a

disaster if one of these items falls into his or her hands. Ensure all smoke detectors are functional and

inform the housing office if they aren't. Also; a fire extinguisher or two around the home can never hurt. At least one of the extinguishers should he kept in the kitchen.

A home owner should also know the proper methods of musing a lire extinguisher in different situations. This information can be acquired from the local fire department by calling 257-16(18.

Plan lire escape routes. Have a plan drawn and conduct periodical drills. Ensure every family member understands his ur her escape route and have a central meeting point for the family once they leave th6. house.

- For more information about fire safety training or information, call Freitas at 257-1608 or the safety department at 257-1830. To report a fire in housing, call 474-7117.
