Ramstein to host Retiree Appreciation Dayby Airman 1st Class Trevor Rhynes86th Airlift Wing Public Affairs

The annual Retiree Appreciation Day kicks off today at the Ramstein Offi cers’ Club with speeches from wing leadership.

Retiree Appreciation Day is an informational fair for retirees in the KMC and informs them on what they are and are not entitled to. This year’s event starts at 8 a.m. today and will carry on until noon.

“Agencies from all over the base will be available

throughout the day to talk about what they offer,” said Staff Sgt. Barbara Coddington, one of two plan-ners for Retiree Appreciation Day. “Representatives from different agencies will present their informa-tion, then will be available to answer any follow-up questions later that morning.”

Planning the event took coordination between the agencies speaking throughout the day, the Retiree Affairs Offi ce and the Ramstein Offi cers’ Club, which is hosting the event.

When coordinating between agencies, Coddington

and Staff Sgt. Laura Ashline, the other planner for the day’s events, look to see if that agency will have a booth or a speaker.

Fundraisers helped with the funding for this year’s event, paying for the breakfast and raffl e tickets.

Fundraising was a huge thing. “This year’s event wouldn’t have happened

without our sponsors,” Coddington said. “Without them, planning for this event wouldn’t have run as smoothly as it has.”

170th IBCT cases colors for last timeby Ignacio “Iggy” RubalcavaU.S. Army Garrison Baumholder Public Affairs

The 170th Infantry Brigade Combat Team con-ducted a casing of the colors ceremony Tuesday in the Hall of Champions on Smith Barracks. The ceremony marked the end of an era, which saw the presence of combat Soldiers in Baumholder for more than 50 years. Casing the 170th IBCT

colors for the last time were Col. Mark D. Raschke, 170th IBCT commander, and Command Sgt. Major James A. Ackermann.

After the ceremony, Lt. Gen. Mark P. Hertling, U.S. Army in Europe commander, told Soldiers, family members and German guests, “It’s never easy to say goodbye to those with whom you’ve shared joy, sorrow, laughter and pain, peacetime training and wartime hardship. But we have asked you here on Baumholder to do all that and we’ve asked you to do it on a very accelerated timeline. And like all the other missions the Bayonet Brigade has received, you’ve performed that mission exceedingly well.”

Brigade Soldiers have been preparing for the de-activation since their return from Afghanistan earlier this year. Only about 800 Soldiers of the 170th IBCT remain on Baumholder. By mid December to early January, the remainder of the Soldiers will have departed for other assignments or will have been absorbed by incoming units to Baumholder.

Raschke highlighted the accomplishments of the brigade and thanked the Baumholder community, German and military, for the great support they provided to the Soldiers and families

by 1st Lt. Aaron Cohn and Senior Airman William Barker 86th Vehicle Readiness Squadron

Germany is known for its extreme winters. Road condi-tions can change drastically throughout the night leading to hazardous driving conditions in the morning. Preparing ahead and being knowledgeable about the hazards winter brings is safe and smart. Every year there are numerous accidents due to inclement weather; the majority of these accidents happen during winter months and can be prevent-ed. The 86th Vehicle Readiness Squadron maintains the snow removal and deicing fleet for Ramstein, Landstuhl, Vogelweh and Einsiedlerhof. The squadron is a critical partner ensuring the roads, runway and aircraft are free of ice and snow.

The following items are some helpful tips the 86th VRS has gathered from experience and would like to pass on:

Snow TireS: According to a German Federal law passed in November 2010, you are required to have Winter or all-season tires marked “M+S” when driving with snow or ice on the ground. Although the law does not specify dates when snow tires are required, the German rule of thumb is “von O bis O,” which means from October to Easter (Ostern in German). Driving without appropriate tires in inclement weather may result in an accident or a heavy fine.

wiper BladeS: An often overlooked, yet very impor-tant component to safe driving are your wiper blades. They are cheap to replace and a set of good blades can greatly improve visibility crucial to safe driving.

wiper Fluid: Be sure your washer fluid is full of commercially made wiper fluid designed to resist freezing. Straight water will freeze and possibly damage your car’s windshield washer system.

Driving Distance: It is important to maintain a safe driv-ing distance between vehicles so you have room to maneu-ver. A good guide is the three-second rule, staying three seconds behind the car in front of you. This can be deter-mined when passing a stationary object. During inclement weather, double the distance to six seconds. If you find yourself braking a lot, add more space.

SaFeTy CheCk: Take the time to perform a safety walk around of your vehicle, inspecting your lights and tires. Clean snow and dirt from your windshield and head-lights. It’s important to both see and be seen. Also, remove any other loose snow as it may blind you or other drivers at highway speeds.

CruiSe ConTrol: Do not use cruise control when

driving in snow, heavy rain or when roads are suspected of “black ice” due to freezing temperatures. Cruise control systems are designed for normal road conditions and can be hazardous on slick roads.

Skidding: Bridges or overpasses, shaded patches, and infrequently traveled roads are often the first to ice over. If you find yourself losing traction, don’t panic. Avoid sudden changes of speed or direction. If you do begin to slide, turn the wheel into the direction of the skid and gently depress the brake pedal until the vehicle regains traction.

Snow equipmenT: Avoid passing snow plows and salt trucks and allow more space between yourself and snow removal equipment. Be mindful of the fact that the drivers of these vehicles have limited visibility. Also, when in front of snow equipment, avoid sudden braking because big trucks need room to slow down.

anTiFreeze: Antifreeze is an essential part of your car’s winter protection. Check your vehicle’s engine cool-ant and over-flow reservoir levels. Make sure the level is full and the mixture is close to 50/50.

Spare Tire: Ensure your spare tire is properly inflat-ed to manufacturer specifications, and that you have the proper tire changing equipment (tire iron and jack) in your vehicle.

BelTS and hoSeS: Check your belts and hoses for excessive wear or looseness and replace them as needed.

Car heaTing: Make sure your car’s heater, defroster and rear defroster are all functioning properly.

emergenCy equipmenT: Good items to keep in your car include an ice scraper, snowbrush, jumper cables, flash light, extra batteries, flares, first aid kit, basic hand tools and blankets.

Car BaTTery: Be sure your battery and alternator are working properly. If your car battery was struggling during the summer be sure to get it tested as it’s even more likely your car won’t start in cold weather.

Prepare for colder months ahead. Germany has a beautiful winter landscape, so if you do plan on traveling somewhere in the upcoming months plan out your route of travel taking into the account the inclement weather and road conditions. Use the tips provided in this article to maintain a safe and fun driving experience in the winter months of Germany. Remember there is no such thing as a 100 percent safe vehicle. Lastly, we here at the 86th Vehicle Readiness Squadron wish you a happy and safe winter driv-ing season. Drive safely.

kunSan air BaSe, South korea — Recently, I was asked the difference between a good NCO and a great NCO.

Well, I answered the question as best I could, but failed to mention “standards.” You see, a good NCO sets his sights on just meeting standards, while a great NCO is continually try-ing to exceed standards and motivates his Airmen to do the same.

Webster’s Dictionary defines the word “standard” as something estab-lished by authority, custom or general consent as a model or example. It also defines it as a measure of quantity, weight, extent, value or quality.

Do you prepare for your PT test not knowing what it will take to pass? Do you perform an operational check on a jet without knowing the technical order pass-fail limits?

Do you get a tattoo not know-ing what is acceptable per Air Force Instruction 36-2903, “Dress and Personal Appearance of Air Force Personnel?”

Recently, the Air Force published Air Force Instruction 1-1, “Air Force Standards.” It took guidance from different sources and put it into one instruction that we can all easily refer to. This instruction covers standards that have been around for decades and added new standards that deal with issues that face our Airmen today such as social media, the wingman concept, resiliency, etc. It also serves as a great tool during official feedback sessions.

Now why is this important? As a custom or example, Airmen need to reflect a professional image that encompasses proper dress and behav-

by Capt. Crystal McLeodRamstein ADAPT program coordinator

This fall, more than 1,500 Ramstein Airmen have been identified to participate in the second “Social Norms” research survey taking place on Ramstein in October.

Earlier in spring, 924 Ramstein Airmen took the initial survey to determine the baseline alcohol use amongst Airmen aged 18 to 24.

The goal of this research study is to show Airmen

the difference between “perceived” alcohol mis-use and “actual” alcohol misuse in the 86th Airlift Wing. The campaign focuses on decreasing exces-sive alcohol use among active-duty Airmen. It will enhance work and community resiliency and change the attitudes and perceptions related to alcohol mis-use.

In addition, at the end of the survey, each member will see how their drinking patterns compare with their peers.

Social Norms research shows that when messages about actual norms are delivered repeatedly, heavy-alcohol use declines.

Starting in November, “norming messages”

will be posted throughout Ramstein Air Base with the data that was provided from the spring 2012 survey.

These messages will center on the three pillars of ARI prevention and responsible alcohol consumption from

the ARI Campaign — mission focus, taking care of each other and personal accountability — under the theme of “No ARIs…no excuses…drink responsi-bly.”

In the summer of 2013, a final research survey will be used to see how much Social Norming has improved the culture at Ramstein.

Social Norms surveys are being conducted weekly at the Ramstein In-processing Line in Bldg. 2402.

For questions regarding this initiative or about responsible drinking, contact the Ramstein Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention and Treatment Program at 479-2390 or 06371-46-2390.

service life. This allows us to turn it into green space for future construction.”

Even though the build-ing has been vacant for some time, Hyde was the first to put a dent in the building, starting the demolition process.

“The area is prime real estate,” said 1st Lt. Harrizon Sanchez, 86th Civil Engineer Squadron construction management chief. “It won’t be long until something takes the space.”

The demolition of the building is scheduled to be complete in March 2013.

The old BX was built in the 1950s and was the first shopping center on Ramstein.

before, during and after deployment. “We would not be where we are now

without the help of others and I would like to thank those that have contributed to the success of the Bayonet Brigade, both during our de-activation and throughout the deploy-ment,” he said.

Raschke pointed out that many of the mayors of the local towns made a spe-cial effort to assist the families of deployed Soldiers.

“Our local community leaders have always provided tremendous support for both our Soldiers and their families,” he said.

JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-RANDOLPH, Texas — More than 86,000 active-duty Air Force mem-bers have transferred Post 9/11 GI Bill education bene-fits to dependent family mem-bers since the benefit transfer program was implemented in August 2009.

However, many who did so were unfamiliar with the process and ended up in a dif-ficult situation, while others want to transfer benefits but hesitate to do so because of commitments that come with the program.

Understanding how the transfer of education benefits

program works starts with understanding who is eligible for Post 9/11 GI Bill ben-efits, said Master Sgt. Joseph Cummings, AFPC education services adviser.

Anyone on active duty for at least 90 days from Sept. 9, 2011, through today (with honorable service disposition) is eligible for Post 9/11 GI Bill benefits. Benefit amounts vary depending on how long a member served after 9/11, and what kind of education they seek (e.g., undergraduate degree, graduate degree or cer-tification program). Members have 15 years after retirement to use their benefits.

Being eligible for Post 9/11 GI Bill benefits, however, does not mean an Airman is eligible to transfer those benefits.

The Air Force program is tied to retention, so only those on active duty after Aug. 1, 2009, are eligible for trans-fer of education benefits. In addition, Airmen must have at least six years of service (active duty and/or selected Reserve) as of the date of election, and they must agree to an additional four-year active duty service commit-ment, said Cummings.

“We frequently get appli-cations from members who are about to retire, but that could be too late unless you are willing and able to com-mit to another four years,” said Cummings. “Eligibility is an issue because if you’re approaching your high year of tenure, you may not be able to commit to four more years.

Advance planning is critical.”Eligible members who want

to transfer their benefits must also understand the application process and ensure they accom-plish required tasks on time.

“Some people thought they applied, but they didn’t sign the statement of understand-ing, so their application didn’t go through,” Cummings said. “Others didn’t follow through on Total Force Service Center instructions within the 14 day window and their applica-tion expired. Some applicants never received their instruc-tions from the TFSC because their email address was wrong.

“When you apply, it’s important that you double check all the information to

COLA Living Pattern Survey Eligible Airmen are asked to participate in the

2012 Cost of Living Allowance Overseas Living Patterns Survey, which will be held through Oct. 31. The survey can be found online at www.defensetravel.dod.mil/site/oscola-lps-germany.cfm. This survey is used to track the shopping patterns of uniformed service members sta-tioned overseas. The data collected will assist in the determination of COLA paid to members in their country of assignment. The survey is only for service members stationed at 13 locations in Germany: Ansbach, Kalkar, Bremerhaven, KMC, Buechel, Spangdahlem, Garmisch, Stuttgart, Geilenkirchen, Vilseck-Grafenwöhr, Heidelberg, Wiesbaden and Hohenfels. The ser-vice member also must not be living in the bar-racks and have been on station for at least three months. Although participation in this survey is voluntary, maximum response is encouraged so the data will be an accurate representation of the service member’s country of assignment. To prepare for the survey, service members should determine where they purchased grocer-ies, clothing, household furnishings, entertain-ment, communications and transportation.

Every 10 minutes, 14 cars are stolen in the U.S.In the KMC, the number is signifi cantly smaller,

but the chance is still there. There are still people who are willing and waiting for an opportunity to smash a window or completely steal your means of transpor-tation; are you next?

About 43 members of the KMC will have their valuables taken from them this month.

“A majority of the criminals are preying on the ‘easy targets,’ vehicles and houses left unsecured or unlocked,” said Master Sgt. Wichard Ho, 569th U.S. Forces Police Squadron NCO in charge of operations. “Securing your doors, windows and any entryways are the best methods to prevent from becoming a vic-tim of circumstance.”

He added that vehicles with valuables left in plain sight are often targeted as well.

“Remove items from plain view, it is too easy for someone to simply walk by and see a purse or a military-style backpack left in the passenger seat; now they have a target,” Wichard said. “Bottom line, don’t leave anything to steal, don’t make yourself a target of opportunity.”

To help police these situations, the 569th USFPS has initiated a new program called Police Intelligence Operations. PIO is designed to track, analyze crime data, identify high crime areas, trends and predict where the next crime spree will most likely occur.

“The goals are to decrease the vulnerability of those areas, possibly catch the criminals in the act and reduce the crime from these areas in the KMC,” said Tech. Sgt. Victor Morales, 569th USFPS NCO in charge of antiterrorism and

force-protection measures.

KMCNeighborhoodWatch.“Everyone can help by getting involved in

the neighborhood watch programs on Ramstein, Vogelweh and Landstuhl,” Morales said. “Look out for each other and your neighbor; our military members are our fi rst-line of defense against these criminals.”

The 569th USFPS recommends members and families contact their insurance companies to fi nd out if and ensure that all their valuables are cov-ered.

Purple Heart presentationWASHINGTON — Secretary of the Air Force Michael

B. Donley, Chief of Staff of the Air Force Gen. Mark A. Welsh III and Chief Master Sgt. of the Air Force James A. Roy issued a tri-signature “Letter to Airmen” Sept. 28.

As part of Energy Action Month this October, the Air Force’s top three leaders reminded Airmen that individual efforts do have an effect on energy savings.

“October is Energy Action Month for our nation. To emphasize each of our roles in energy savings, the Air Force has adopted ‘I am Air Force Energy’ as our theme. As energy consumers, we can impact the Air Force’s fuel and electricity use every day — by fl ying our aircraft at energy effi cient altitudes, not letting vehicles or equipment idle, or simply turning off the lights. While individual efforts may seem small, they can have a big impact when multiplied across the Air Force,” the letter states.

The letter can be read online at www.ramstein.af.mil.To assist in creating awareness of EAM, SAF/PAO has

created a toolkit with talking points, a suggested activ-ity list, a campaign plan and a commander’s call speech. Airmen can view the toolkit components on the Air Force Portal.

AF leaders encourage energy savingsin latest ‘Letter to Airmen’ Sept. 28


by Mindy CampbellU.S. Army Garrison Kaiserslautern Public Affairs

Kathryn Arnett is passion-ate about taking care of those who take care of others.

With a focus on both her clients and her co-workers, Arnett was recently rec-ognized for her work with the U.S. Army Garrison Kaiserslautern’s Army Substance Abuse Program.

Arnett, who has worked in the ASAP office on Landstuhl for the past two years, was named the Army Center for Substance Abuse Programs 2012 Clinical Director of the Year.

“Ms. Arnett’s ingenuity, work ethic and high perfor-mance set the standard for ASAP Europe,” wrote Lt. Col. Lars Zetterstrom in his nomination letter. “Her expe-rience, skill and dedication to the ASAP and the garrison contributed directly to mis-sion readiness.”

Arnett said she was thrilled to get the award and that the ASAPs in Europe were in the spotlight.

“I am a person that jumps in and is motivated and am excited that Europe is setting the pace for all the ASAPs,” said Arnett, who is a licensed clinical social worker and cer-tified alcohol and drug coun-selor. “That has been my goal to see Europe shine.”

Another goal of hers was to build a team of people who were excited about coming to work.

“I want people to want to come to work here,” Arnett said. “If you get out of bed and dread coming here, that is going to be reflected in your work…If I take anything away from the clinical director of the year award, it is that I feel that I have succeeded in creat-ing that kind of environment where I have protected people and insulated them from things that would have caused bur-dens and stress to their day.”

Co-worker Lorraina Nyanza, a licensed social worker and substance abuse counselor, said Arnett’s pas-sion for her work makes her stand out.

“She is in this field to make a difference,” she said. “She is professional, inspirational, transparent, compassionate,

honest, has no hidden agendas and is a listener, which is very unique for a leader.”

Nyanza also said Arnett has a great balance between pro-fessionalism and humor.

“Her sense of humor is intoxicating,” she said. “She has a great balance between humor and seriousness that

makes her very approachable and professional in a context that is genuine.”

Arnett will soon be leaving the ASAP office and begin a new position with the Europe Regional Medical Command in their Care Provider Support Program, which helps provide support for health care workers.

When you hear a firefighter has saved a life, what do you picture? Do you imagine one in full gear running through a burning building to get to someone, or do you picture using the Jaws of Life to free a victim trapped in a vehicle?

In the case of three firefighters from the 886th Civil Engineer Squadron, they saved a life by utilizing their emergency medical technician training.

“We responded to a report of a female with a possible stroke,” said Staff Sgt. Robert Davis, 886th Civil Engineer Squadron firefighter. “Once we arrived on scene, we found her on the ground unresponsive and not breathing.”

The crew assessed the situation and reacted by performing CPR.

“The signs and symptoms she was showing were indicative of administrating CPR with an automated external defibrillator, providing compressions as well as rescue breaths,” he said. “After four and a half minutes, she was breathing on her own but we continued rescue breaths until the off-base ambu-lance arrived.”

German medics arrived on scene and transported

the patient to a hospital in Kaiserslautern, where she was treated.

The team was made up of three NCOs: Davis and Staff Sgts. Theodore Warshaw and Solomon Rigsby.

“Normally, a crew is made up of four or five people. There’s one NCO, one senior Airman and two Airmen first class,” Warshaw said. “It just so happened that we were all in one truck together.”

Firefighters train multiple hours a day for many different things, ranging from rescuing people

trapped in cars, to fighting fires to acting as EMTs, he said.

“We have so many different respon-sibilities that our training time varies,” Warshaw said. “I can guarantee that for at least three hours a day we’re doing some type of training, whether it’s in the classroom, or outside doing an exercise simulating buildings on fire, an aircraft crash or pulling someone from a man-hole.”

For a call like this, adrenaline kicked in and affected how these firefighters reacted.

“My mind went blank and time slowed down,” Warshaw said. “Four minutes normally isn’t that long, but in a situa-tion like this, where we are doing CPR for that long, it seems like an eternity.”

The firefighters relied on past train-ing to ensure a positive outcome for the

situation.“We train so much on a day to day basis that in

a situation like this our training definitely kicks in and takes over,” Warshaw said. “It’s nice to see that the training we do pays off when we get a call like this with an outcome like this. I was surprised by how much my training took over, it was like muscle memory.”

The woman was released from hospital care days later and has been in stable condition since.

ior. If you need a haircut or your uni-form needs attention, take the neces-sary time to make sure you represent your unit and the Air Force in the right manner.

Demonstrate proper customs and courtesies by standing up when a senior member visits your work cen-ter; respond to him or her by saying

Sir, Ma’am, Chief or Sergeant. As a measure of quantity or qual-

ity, when you perform your daily duties, you need to know the require-ments of that task and try to get it done in a timely, cost effective and quality manner to assure we exceed the minimums of what is being asked of us. Bottom line, have pride in one-self and in your workmanship.

How will you know if you are

meeting and exceeding standards? Through timely and proper feedback and encouragement from your super-visors so you clearly understand what is expected of you. Also, demanding perfection from yourself so you can assure you will exceed the standard every time.

I’ve heard from time to time what we allow in our presence becomes the standard. As supervisors we can-

not make excuses for our Airmen and allow them to ignore our Air Force core values. We would be doing them a disservice and putting their careers in jeopardy.

So know, abide and exceed the standard for yourselves and your Airmen so the next time someone thanks you for your service, you will walk away sharing the same pride they have for you!

by Rachel Clark409th Contracting Support Brigade

The 21st Theater Sustainment Command’s contract-ing partner, the 409th Contracting Support Brigade, has a geographic footprint that spans across 104 coun-tries and is the Expeditionary Contracting Command’s support link on the European and African continents.

“One of the biggest challenges for contracting officers is providing support to some challenging logistical requirements,” said Col. William Bailey, commander of the 409th CSB and principal assistant responsible for contracting — Europe.

“This is true while providing sustainment contract-ing services in our garrison environment or contin-gency contracting in a deployed environment,” said Bailey. “Whether we are contracting for mules to cross the mountains of Afghanistan, camels in the Middle East or trains, planes and cars in Europe, we have to do so in a fashion that will ensure we meet our customer’s requirements and enable them to accomplish their mis-sion on time.”

The 409th consists of one battalion and nine contin-gency contracting teams spread across Germany that provide support to 15 Army installations.

In the Ukraine, Capt. Kelley Smith, 649th Contingency Contracting Team, Kaiserslautern, was part of the sup-port team for the Joint Chiefs of Staff exercise, Rapid Trident 2012. The exercise included 1,394 people from 16 nations. A total of 156 U.S. participants worked alongside exercise partners training on international security assistance force-focused peacekeeping tasks in field training and command post exercises.

According to Smith, synchronizing multiple exer-cise funding sources provided challenges to estab-lished contracting planning timelines. The mission was successfully executed and served as an example for complex expeditionary contracting operations.

In Belgium, Roland Becker, a contracting specialist in the Regional Contracting Office Benelux, supported the 68th Normandy invasion commemoration by writ-ing contracts for food, generators, light stands, latrines, and fencing for the event that supported more than 200 military members who were on temporary duty to Normandy, France, for the World War II D-Day com-memoration.

At the Theater Contracting Center in Kaiserslautern, contracting officer Anita McLain works on a com-ponent of a total maintenance contract for the Kaiserslautern area. This large-scale contract, which awarded more than $400 million in services, covers everything from grounds maintenance, equipment maintenance and repair, as well as construction proj-ects for the various bases.

McLain said it can be a challenge on both ends, as none of the three on-site military personnel are contin-

gency contract specialists.“What they lack in knowledge they make up for

in the willingness to cooperate and support,” McLain said of the Soldiers who work in conjunction with con-tracting specialists assigned as reachback for opera-tions. “They have to deal with the language barriers while interfacing with the contractors on the existing contracts and they do all the leg work when gathering the information necessary to submit the packages for new requirements.”

In Latvia supporting Saber Strike 2012, contracting officers Maj. Paul Tomcik and Staff Sgt. John Manurs from the 606th Senior CCT, Kaiserslautern, work multiple contracts for fuel, life support areas, rental vehicles, bus transportation, and material and handling equipment.

“Support to exercises such as Saber Strike provides contingency contracting officers the opportunity to work in a dynamic environment where we can offer contracting solutions from cradle-to-grave in a short span of time,” Tomcik said.

Meanwhile in Cameroon, another team from the 606th SCCT worked through challenges normally associated with developing contracts in Africa.

“This exercise brought plenty of challenges but we were able to meet them head on and accomplish the mission on time and under budget,” said Maj. Mark Corn, 606th SCCT, Kaiserslautern, of African

Endeavor 2012 in Douala, Cameroon. “We had continuous support from the U.S. Embassy

in Yaoundé, the host nation and reachback with the 903rd Contingency Contracting Battalion. Overall, more than 200 coalition and African partners were able to test the interoperability of their communica-tions equipment and receive valuable training during the exercise,” said Corn.

Sgt. 1st Class Cathleen Stadler-Frazier, 409th CSB operations and plans noncommissioned officer, who recently returned from a deployment in Djibouti, Africa, said the key to getting the job done is teaching the locals how the Army does business.

“While deployed to countries like Djibouti, where resources are limited, we educated vendors of small businesses how to do business with the government,” Stadler-Frazier said.

Whether it’s supporting exercises including Saber Strike 2012, African Endeavor 2012, Rapid Trident 12, or providing theater sustainment, Command Sgt. Maj. Bentura Fernandez, 409th CSB command ser-geant major, said the 409th CSB plans and executes efficient, effective and agile contracting support for U.S. Army Europe,

“Not a day goes by where a 409th Soldier isn’t deployed providing contracting service to the Army. The 409th CSB is going to be ready to provide con-tracting support anytime, anywhere,” Fernandez said.

Training for an automated time attendance and production system, enabling civilian employees to input their own time cards, was conducted on Ramstein and Vogelweh starting Tuesday and ends today for all civilian employees and their supervisors.

This new automated system will require each civilian to have a

CAC card to submit their electronic timesheet. The Department of Defense initiative provides an automated, sin-gle source input for reporting and collecting time and attendance and labor data.

“ATAAPS makes it easier to consol-idate time and attendance information to interfacing payroll and account-ing systems,” said 2nd Lt. Adrianna Perez, 86th Comptroller Squadron financial services flight commander.

Additional advantages to ATAAPS include time saved with labor input and error corrections.

Training will be required for all key players this week with the system scheduled to go live Oct. 21. It will not be until the week of Oct. 29 when parties will use this system for the first time. There will be training from 1 to 2 p.m. today at Hercules Theater.

The time and attendance must be entered electronically by the

second Tuesday of each payroll week for certification.

Certification, completed by the supervisor, is electronically entered beginning the second Tuesday of the pay period and completed by the close of business the following day.

“This new system will streamline our current processes,” said Perez. “We’re looking forward to being able to more easily serve our civilian employees.”

ATAAPS training held at Ramstein

The focus for hospital staff at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center this month is trust. Senior leaders, supervisors and employ-ees will devote more than 13,000

training hours in support of a Culture of Trust program initiated by the Army sur-geon general.

The overarching goal of the initiative is to create an organization employees are proud to work for and to provide quality health care to patients, beneficiaries, stake-holders, co-workers and the community at large. Through this program, the Army Medical Department is able to standardize the patient experience, reduce inconsisten-cies and improve the workplace environ-ment.

To help realize this goal, LRMC staff will be attending a general overview ses-sion or a supervisory session to help under-stand the most basic and essential elements of both personal and professional success — trust.

The focus is on valuing one another as individuals and not as components of a large bureaucratic machine.

In speaking on the subject of trust, Army Chief of Staff Gen. Raymond Odierno said, “Trust is the bedrock of our hon-ored profession — trust between each other, trust between Soldiers and leaders, trust between Soldiers and their families and the Army, and trust with the American people.”

That trust also includes Army medicine. The combat Soldier is willing to risk every-thing because they know that on the field of battle, the Army medic will be there. Army medicine has a sacred duty to rep-licate this level of trust at every juncture and with every interaction, every moment, every day.

Since launching in September 2010, the program has infused all outlets of Army medicine to ensure patients receive quality healthcare while clinicians remain passion-ate about their organization.

To gauge the effectiveness of the pro-gram, the Culture of Trust task force measures key indicators such as patient outcomes, employee satisfaction and

customer service. Army medicine believes that trust hap-

pens when clinicians prove their com-mitment, capability and competence to a patient, thus gaining his or her respect and confidence. The Army’s trust behaviors are known as A.C.T.I.V.E., and they include:

ACCOUNTABILITY is being honest, taking responsibility for performance and behavior, and being answerable to yourself and others.

CONGRUENCY is when the actions of individuals and organizations are con-sistent with their philosophy and val-ues. Congruent individuals and organiza-tions are viewed as: practicing what they preach, walking the talk, actions matching words, following through, and being sin-cere or real.

TRANSPARENCY is freely sharing information and removing barriers to open communication and understanding intent and desired outcomes. It is also actively working to rid the organization of gossip and the rumor mill.

INTEGRITY is doing what is right legally, ethically and morally at all times, regardless of whether or not someone is watching and despite the risk or reward.

VOICE is my obligation to use my voice to defend against injustices, to cause reconsideration of ideas, stimulate thinking and explore innovative ideas.

ENGAGEMENT is being actively involved, eager and dedicated to accom-plishing the mission. It is when employees are passionate about their work and have a personal and emotional investment in the success of the services or products deliv-ered.

Culture of Trust comes to LRMC ensure it’s accurate and follow the instructions you receive from the TFSC,” Cummings said. “If you don’t get approval confirmation from the TFSC, you may have missed something in the instructions.”

Another common problem occurs for applicants who transfer all of their benefits to a single dependent. Benefits are transferred in month increments, so an Airman with 36 months of education benefits can transfer all 36 months to a single dependent, equally among all dependents, or only a month to each, as they choose. Then, if something in their life changes, they can adjust the number of months each dependent receives.

“If you transfer all your benefits to one child and that child chooses to not use them for whatever reason, you won’t be able to transfer them to anyone else,” Cummings said. “Your only option will be to retrieve your benefits and use them yourself, which you can always do later anyway. If you want to make sure one of your dependents can later use the benefit, you probably need to make sure when you apply for the program that you transfer at least one month to each dependent.”

Many Airmen who intend to use the benefit themselves after they retire or separate don’t apply for transfer of education benefits. In some cases, that has sad consequences.

“We get calls from Mortuary Affairs at Dover (Air Force Base, Del.) sometimes. It’s already a sad situation if Dover’s calling, but it’s really heartbreaking if a member who died didn’t transfer any benefits to a dependent,” he said. “You know, you can always retrieve the benefits for yourself later, but if you aren’t here later, it’s too late to for your dependents to be able to use your benefits.”

Members who transfer benefits and voluntarily separate before completing the four year commitment may have to repay the gov-ernment for any benefits already used by their dependents, and dependents would not be able to use the remainder of the benefits, so members who plan to separate or retire should carefully consider the implications before applying for transfer of educational benefits. However, transfer of educational benefits is a perfect opportunity for members who plan to re-enlist or make the Air Force a career.

“If you’re planning to stay in for the next four years or more any-way, then the active duty service commitment isn’t really a factor,” Cummings said. “Plus, if something happens that prevents you from fulfilling that commitment, like a medical discharge, your depen-dents will likely still be able to use the transferred benefits and you won’t have to repay the government for benefits they already used.”

Eligible Airmen can apply for transfer of educational benefits through the MilConnect website at www.dmdc.osd.mil/milconnect.

“If you decide to apply, remember that all actions including submitting the signed statement of understanding must be accom-plished within 14 days of applying. If you don’t complete all actions, your application will be rejected and you will have to start over later,” Cummings said. “And, ADSC dates are not retroactive to the first application attempt, so if you decide to reapply a year later, that’s when your service commitment will begin.”

For more information, visit https://mypers.af.mil and enter “Post 9/11 GI Bill” or “9083” in the search window. Potential applicants can also send questions to Cummings and the AFPC education ser-vices team at [email protected].

Military members and their fam-ilies have a brand new Chaplain Family Life Center at U.S. Army Garrison Kaiserslautern.

The center, dedicated Oct. 3 at Pulaski Barracks, is open to anyone in the KMC for pastoral counseling and education.

It’s also a resource for Unit Ministry Teams within the KMC. Following a brief ribbon cutting cer-

emony community members were treated to a barbecue of grilled steaks, baked beans and potato salad.

The center will offer effective counseling, training for chaplains and chaplain assistants and serve as a community resource to help

Soldiers, civilian workers and families become more resilient, said Chaplain (Maj.) Everett Franklin, the garrison’s family life chap-lain.

There are three new coun-seling rooms equipped for video instruction, plus a con-ference room with comfy couches and large screen televisions. There will also be a food pantry, to support emergency needs of commu-nity members.

When Franklin arrived at the garrison in August 2010, he saw a growing demand for community services.

This summer, his vision for a new center became a reality, with $45,000 worth

of equipment, materials

and literature. Then, staff from the garrison’s religious support office reorganized their building to create space.

“Many people worked very hard to get this together. The RSO staff and volunteers worked tirelessly to make this happen,” Franklin said.

The center will benefit all Unit Ministry Teams in the KMC, who are an integral part of the support and services offered to the community, said Jeffrey Crisp, deputy to the gar-rison commander.

“We can’t do our job as a garrison without all of you,” Crisp told the crowd gathered during the lunchtime event. “We need the UMTs to make this one garrison family.”

Other organizations, such as fam-ily readiness groups, can also use the space for their activities.

“We still have a few finishing touches. But we are up and running and excited to serve the Soldiers, civilian workers and families of the KMC,” Franklin said.

For more information about the center, call 493-4152 or 0631-3406-4152.

Below are the 2012 recommended USEUCOM holiday mail deadline dates for postal customers assigned to the European theater of operations. These dates are for mail originating in Europe and destined to locations in the United States. Stateside mailers sending letters and packages to European APO/FPO/DPO addresses use similar deadline dates.

SPACE AVAILABLE MAIL (SAM)» Nov. 26

PARCEL AIRLIFT MAIL (PAL)» Dec. 3

PRIORITY MAIL» Dec. 10

FIRST CLASS LETTERS AND CARDS» Dec. 10

EXPRESS MAIL MILITARY SERVICE» Dec. 18

“USAFE postal patrons should plan ahead and mail early to ensure their letters, cards, and pack-ages arrive to their intended U.S. destinations in time for the holidays,” said Lionel Rivera, U.S. Air Forces in Europe/Air Force Africa Postal branch public affairs officer. “Customers can avoid the historical long lines at the post office when they mail early and can take advantage of using the cheaper, although slower, space avail-able mail service military post offices offer in Europe.”

Space available mail service takes longer to arrive to end destination and moves on a space

available basis once it arrives in the states. If you want faster service, consider using priority mail or express mail military service. It costs more but these classes of mail get preferred and or expe-dited service.

Note, some USAFE APOs do not offer EMMS. Almost all mail accepted at military post offices in Europe is flown to the United States on com-mercial aircraft. Once mail arrives stateside, depending on the service you selected, it’s trans-ported based on the service you paid for.

“Keep in mind, packages transiting through the mail stream are handled numerous times, there-fore proper packaging is very important,” said Rivera.

The below mailing tips are provided to help ensure packages arrive safely and undamaged.

USPS MAILINg TIPS• Print addresses clearly (Print or type clearly

with a pen or permanent marker). Avoid commas, period, or other punctuation — it helps your mail-piece speed through USPS automated processing equipment.

• Include all address elements (apartment num-bers, suite numbers, directional information for streets, etc.).

• Put the delivery and return addresses on only one side of the package.

• Select a box that is strong enough to protect the contents. Leave space for cushioning inside the carton.

• Package contents with shredded or rolled

newspaper, bubble wrap, or Styrofoam peanuts. Plain air-popped popcorn is also good for cush-ioning; it’s inexpensive and environmentally friendly. Pack tightly to avoid shifting.

• Always use tape that is designed for shipping, such as pressure-sensitive tape, nylon-reinforced tape, paper tape, or glass-reinforced pressure-sensitive tape.

• Stuff glass and fragile hollow items, like vases, with newspaper or packing material to avoid damage due to shock. When mailing framed photographs, take the glass out of the frame and wrap it separately.

• Remove alkaline batteries from toys and other electronic items.

• Do not use gift wrapping paper, string, mask-ing tape, or cellophane tape.

• Place an index card inside the package that contains the sender’s address and the recipient’s address along with a list of the contents. This will help postal employees to re-pack boxes that were improperly wrapped and came apart during transport ensuring that the package is either sent to its destination or back to the sender.

• Use Express Mail and Priority Mail boxes, envelopes, and tubes your post office provides.

Contact your local postmaster for addi-tional information on how mail is dispatched and received at your location, and for advice on the best service to use based on your mailing needs.

NCOs have long been referred to as the “backbone” of the U.S. Army, forming the support

structure that holds all the separate pieces together.

To honor that legacy and to main-tain it for the future, the 10th Army Air and Missile Defense Command recently honored its own distin-guished group of enlisted leaders at a special banquet.

A Sept. 27 gathering at The Rough restaurant in nearby Mackenbach served as the venue for the event, hosted by Command Sgt. Maj. Darrin L. Jefferies, the top enlist-ed Soldier for the 10th AAMDC.

The Soldiers were joined by spouses and many others who had come together to build not only unit cohesion, but to better appreciate the integral role NCOs play in unit success and the development of their Soldiers.

The main speaker for the evening was Sgt. Maj. Chad A. McNeish, the operations sergeant major for the 5th Battalion, 7th Artillery Regiment. His speech touched on the importance of the corps of NCOs and also some of the history and symbolism behind the “Creed of the Noncommissioned Officer.”

McNeish said he was pleased with the good crowd at the event, noticing that many of the movers and shak-ers within the 10th AAMDC were in attendance to acknowledge the NCO impact.

“This is a group of the most power-ful noncommissioned officers within this organization, and together we could accomplish anything,” McNeish said afterward.

The banquet was coordinated by Sgt. 1st Class Derek Salley, a fire con-trol NCO for the 10th AAMDC.

“Planning and coordination took about a month to complete. Finding a proper location, gathering RSVPs and coordinating for technical support were our greatest challenges,” Salley said.

A video was shown highlighting photos of accomplishments the 10th AAMDC has logged in recent months, with special emphasis on the role played by the unit’s many NCOs in achieving those successes.

Within the video were interviews of selected senior NCOs being asked, among other things, about the pride a Soldier feels in being an NCO and how that pride is shown.

For Master Sgt. Kelly Stransky, the NCO in charge of personnel and man-power, her answer on the paramount NCO mission was simple and to the point.

“To lead from the front, show that we are a brotherhood and sisterhood, and to set the example,” she said.

Leaders in the unit said the dinner is just an extension of several important Army-wide initiatives that highlight the importance of strong leadership, how standards are still important, and the role each Soldier must play in helping to maintain a competent and professional Army.

Sgt. Maj. Julio Matta, the ser-

geant major of logistics for the 10th AAMDC, said the decision to hold the dinner had been brewing over the last couple of months. Regardless of when the go-ahead for the event was given, Matta said the logic behind it is what really matters.

“We often sit and talk about the things we see that are not exactly the way we want them to be. This was something to put some positive energy into making them the way they ought to be,” Matta said.

Jefferies and other senior leaders expressed hope that the event can become an annual tradition that will continue to build lasting bonds among NCOs and also serve to strengthen the unit.

Matta agreed. “The NCO Backbone Dinner is

about the things that matter the most. It’s about growing stronger as a team and leveraging our experience as lead-ers from all different backgrounds,” he said.

The next Environmental, Safety and Occupational Health Compliance Assessment and Management Program for Air Force units in the KMC are scheduled for Oct. 22 through 26. All Air Force units locat-ed on Ramstein, Vogelweh, Einsiedlerhof, Kapaun and Bann are eligible to be assessed.

ESOHCAMP assessments are conducted annually. These assess-ments help commanders at all lev-els assess their unit’s compliance with all federal, state and local environmental, safety and occupa-tional health laws and regulations — both U.S. and host nation.

Additionally, ESOHCAMP assessors will execute the com-pliance assessment portion of the Environmental Management System.

The assessment identifies find-ings wherever base operations are not in compliance with the regulatory requirements. The findings pinpoint deficiencies and help identify solutions. From this, we can evaluate our strengths and weaknesses in order to build stronger, more effective programs that not only save money and resources, but that also ensure maximum protection of human health and the environment.

During the assessment peri-od, squadron commanders and superintendents should have per-sonnel on-site that are knowl-edgeable with the environmental, safety and occupational health issues and programs under their control, to provide escort assis-tance for the ESOHCAMP team as required, and provide access to lockers, files, cabinets and locked/secured areas.

An ESOHCAMP team badge will identify the assessors. ESOHCAMP team members will schedule appointments during the week of the assessment, but in some cases they may show up at your unit with little or no notice.

The team of approximately 20 people will start with the assess-ment after an in-brief. The team will compile the checklist results into a report that will be provided to senior leadership of the three wings here.

For questions regarding the ESOHCAMP assessment, call the 86th Civil Engineer Squadron’s Environmental section at 480-5086/7712.

Please help us make this a suc-cessful assessment and start pre-paring now.

Internal ESOHCAMP for the KMCKMC Onstage’s production of

“Hairspray” will bring the big laughs, big music and big hair.

It’s 1962 and spunky Baltimore teenag-er Tracy Turnblad has a dream. More than anything, she wants to dance on the tele-vised “The Corny Collins Show.” Despite her “pleasantly plump” appearance, Tracy is selected for the show by Corny Collins himself.

Tracy becomes an overnight celebrity, launches a campaign to integrate the show, falls in love with local heartthrob Link Larkin, defends her over the top hairstyle, becomes spokesperson for a local dress shop, organizes a protest rally, and gets hauled off to jail.

More than a big, brassy, fun musi-cal, “Hairspray” is a family show that highlights the racial injustices of 1960s America and promotes tolerance in all its forms. You’ll tap your toes to the beat as Tracy and her friends battle high school bullies, racism, and enemies everywhere of big girls with big hair. “Hairspray” is based on the 1988 John Waters film of the same name with 1960s style dance and motown music by Marc Shaiman and lyr-ics by Scott Wittman and Shaiman.

Samantha Lightle plays an exuberant Tracy Turnblad, and David Dittmer shines as Edna Turnblad. Bratty, no-talent Amber Von Tussle (Nicole Hatch) and her mother, Velma Von Tussle (Karin Asselstine), are Tracy’s delightfully despicable adversar-

ies. Penny Pingleton, Tracy’s innocent and naive best friend, is played by Audrey Daly. Staff Sgt. Nicholas Perez is Tracy’s heartthrob love interest, Link Larkin.

Motormouth Maybelle (Rochelle Jones) is the owner of a downtown record shop, and Michael Fargas plays her son Seaweed J. Stubbs. Wilbur Turnblad (Tim Fiscus) is Tracy’s father and owner of the Har-De-Har Hut joke shop.

In all, more than 30 cast and crew from the KMC are rehearsing long hours in preparation for this popular musical.

This team of active-duty Soldiers and Airmen, Department of Defense civilians, local nationals, and students are going all out to deliver a performance the audience will not soon forget.

KMC Onstage presents ‘Hairspray’


by Kathy LatzkeRamstein Airman & Family Readiness Center director

North Dakota, Italy, Utah or Germany. Wherever we are PCSing, knowing

some of the details before we get there can be helpful and stress-reducing. At the end of the day, not all surprises are good.

Everyone has a sponsor story. The good, the bad and the ugly. We all have one and have all heard them. There are horror stories out there that are as diverse as the Air Force itself. The bottom line unfortunately is, not all Airmen are treated equally when it comes to sponsorship.

My family and I have a sponsor story that can hardly be beat. Germany was our seventh assignment, but our first overseas with children (and two high school girls, at that). We received it Sept. 1, 2010, with a report date of April 20, 2011. There was lots of time to plan, sell our home and worry.

Not 24 hours after receiving our orders, my mind was swimming with questions, especially about our ini-tial arrival and how quickly I could get our daughters enrolled in school.

Enter Master Sgt. Amy Winger, our sponsor.

Transatlantic phone calls, Facebook and email — we employed all means of communication. By the end of the first month, she knew as much about my family as a close friend. Yes, she asked that many questions.

The date of departure approached. We visited family before heading to Baltimore. Of course, like many, when you are traveling you lose touch with current events. I heard chatter about an Icelandic volcano and caught brief comments. Never did I think that there was a correlation between some-thing so remote and my future. And as I stood in the MAC terminal in Baltimore, I realized my situation was far from isolated.

We stayed in contact with Winger. She gave us updates from Ramstein, providing us with the news on the street and when they may lift the flight restrictions. Apart from that, I gave little thought about what our delay meant to her. I guess, as I reflect, I thought that it simply adjusted the day she would meet us at the terminal.

However, when we landed at Ramstein, it became perfectly evident what Winger had been tasked with. As we shuffled our way through the line

at lodging, we witnessed family after family being told that their reservation had been given away because they had not arrived as scheduled and no one had kept them abreast of changes in their itinerary.

But not us. As we approached the desk, we anticipated the worse. When we were told that our sponsor had called everyday to adjust our arrival date, we could have wept. Pleasantly, we were handed our keys to TLF.

Our first impression of Ramstein, Germany, and the men and women of the KMC was great.

I wish I heard positive sponsor sto-ries more. And they aren’t all bad. But it is the unfortunate situations that per-meate conversations and leave a last-ing mark. It simply does not need to be this way. As an Airman and a wing-man, we should accept zero tolerance for a regrettable arrival to Ramstein. No one should find themselves alone after landing at Frankfurt International Airport. If we equate the first impres-sion saying with sponsorship, we want more than anything to make incoming Airmen’s first impression right. This responsibility rests with the sponsor.

Maybe you want to pay it forward by being a great sponsor or make PCSing a better experience than what

you had. Either way, the Air Force wants your desire and your talent.

The Ramstein Airman & Family Readiness Center wants to help you with your sponsorship duties. We are now offering the class Sponsorship in the KMC as a way to highlight the special considerations and needs that should be addressed when folks PCS here.

To give sponsors a general look at sponsorship duties and tools, www.militaryhomefront.com offers online training. A certificate is generated when completed and can be accessed by your unit intro monitor and by the A&FRC. From there, sponsors should schedule themselves for Sponsorship in the KMC so we can pass on KMC-specific issues, policies and points of contact.

A friendship bloomed from our sponsorship experience. By having the forethought that she did, Winger went above and beyond in helping my family settle in.

Yes, we planned ahead. We did our part. But we had to relinquish some of the details to Winger and trust she would do well by us. She was a sponsoree’s dream. Let’s pay that for-ward. Let’s truly welcome others to Ramstein.

Pay it forward, be a sponsor

Bioenvironmental engineering keeps workplace safeby Airman 1st Class Hailey Haux86th Airlift Wing Public Affairs

The 86th Aerospace Medicine Squadron’s bio-environmental engineering flight ensures all Air Force members and employees working in the KMC have a healthy work environment.

“The daily operations of the bioenvironmental engineering flight are important to mission accom-plishment,” said Maj. Robbie Wheeler, 86th AMDS bioenvironmental engineering flight commander. “The short-term goal is to help ensure that every KMC warrior and their family members are healthy enough to complete the mission.”

The bioenvironmental engineering flight per-forms a number of duties to guarantee their work environment is a healthy place.

“We perform surveys that help determine risks such as irritating chemicals and waterborne ill-ness, and use our equipment to analyze any health hazards,” said Airman 1st Class Brian Bigney, 86th AMDS bioenvironmental engineering technician.

Not only does a bioenvironmental engineering technician perform gas mask fit tests; they also respond to emergencies such as chemical spills and take water samples on a weekly basis.

“Water sampling is one of the biggest things we do,” Bigney said. “We are constantly taking samples to make sure the KMC has clean, uncontaminated water.”

Another part of their job involves making sure any confined spaces have the correct oxygen levels.

“We don’t want anyone entering an area that is a hazard to their health,” Bigney said.

If an area is found to be hazardous, the bio-environmental engineering technicians recommend a solution, ranging from changing the process, to implementing workplace controls like indus-trial ventilation; to telling workers what protective equipment should be used to keep their work envi-ronment safe.

Working with other agencies on emergency responses puts a different spin on the everyday jobs, said Bigney.

“Since we are dealing with hazardous materi-als, teamwork and communication is crucial,” said Senior Master Sgt. Alvaro Magana, 86th AMDS bioenvironmental engineering flight chief. “We have to be able to respond and talk with each other about what is going on because everyone’s health is at stake.”

Ramstein’s bioenvironmental engi-neering flight has the same procedures as any base in the states; however, one thing that is different is that they have to comply with the host nation require-ments, to make sure their codes and stan-dards are met as well.

To learn the tricks of the trade, bio-environmental engineering technicians

go to technical school for three and a half months to train for anything that might come up.

“It’s a difficult course,” said Magana. “There are a variety of chemicals they need to learn about. They have to know what’s toxic versus radioac-tive. In technical school they learn how to protect themselves and others against this broad field of chemicals.”

Keeping the KMC safe is a major priority, how-ever; Airmen from the bioenvironmental engineer-ing flight have another long-term goal in mind when they come to work every day.

“Our efforts help us keep our military members and their families healthy well beyond their term of service,” said Wheeler. “We prevent avoidable illnesses that might develop long after they’ve left the military.”

Kaiserslautern’s traditional “Oktoberkerwe,” or October carnival, will take place Oct. 19 to 29. More than 140 ride owners and vendors will offer their attractions and merchandise at Messeplatz fair-grounds.

City representatives will officially open the event by tapping the first keg of beer at 7 p.m. Oct. 19 in the big fest tent. When it’s dark, around 9 p.m., fireworks will be lit to signal the start of the 11-day event.

The history of carnivals in Kaiserslautern dates back to March 1571, when Emperor Maximilian II granted the town of Kaiserslautern the right to hold two cattle markets each year. For this event, traveling people came to town, and the traditional

“Kerwe,” or carnival, which nowadays is held in May and October, started to develop. Since World War II, the “Lautrer Kerwe” with about 200,000 visitors today, has the reputation of being the biggest folks fest in the Westpfalz.

Oktoberkerwe will offer a variety of rides for adults and children. A novelty will be a ride called “The King.” It offers 360 degree turns in three direc-tions in a height of 27 meters. The mobile roller-coaster “Black Hole” is unique in Europe since visi-tors experience a 420-meter long ride in total dark-ness. Also available will be the biggest transportable Haunted Mansion. “Down Under” will take people on a trip in the crazy outback on two levels. Visitors of “Crazy Town” will have to find their way in this crazy labyrinth. The 50-meter long Bavarian ride will offer Fun for children and adults. “Breakdance” and “Musik Express” will provide speed and sound.

The giant Ferris wheel, the token of each folks fest, will offer a nice view from a height of 40 meters. Children can have fun with skills games and taking rides on ponies, in miniscooters and merry-go-rounds. The skills booths will offer archery, fishing or throwing cans. Beer gardens, bistros and various tents will lure hungry and thirsty visitors. Palatinate and international culinary specialties will be sold at the food booths.

The “shopping street” will take visitors on a shop-ping trip. Until late at night they can buy a variety of merchandise, including jewelry, clothes, curtains, household items, leather goods, spices, arts and crafts items.

Family day with reduced prices and special offers until 7 p.m. is scheduled for Oct. 24.

The ride owners and vendors want to say Thank You to their customers with a colorful fireworks dis-play around 9 p.m. Oct. 29 to close out the event.

The rides will be open 2 p.m. to 11 p.m. each day,

and until midnight Oct. 19 and Saturdays. Some food booths and vendors will start selling their spe-cialties and merchandise at 11 a.m. each day.

Traditionally, Sunday shopping will be offered in the city of Kaiserslautern during Oktoberkerwe. The stores in Kaiserslautern will be open 1 to 6 p.m. Oct. 21.

Celebrating Hispanic heritageby the 86th Airlift Wing Equal Opportunity Office

National Hispanic Heritage Month cel-ebrates and recognizes the contribu-tions Hispanic citizens have made to American society and culture.

The month-long celebration began Sept. 15 and con-tinues through Monday.

Sept. 15th is significant because it’s the anniversary of independence for five Latin American countries: Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. In addition, Mexico declared its indepen-dence on Sept. 16 and Chile on Sept. 18.

This year’s National Hispanic Heritage Month theme is “Diversity United, Building America’s Future Today.”

Throughout history, Hispanic citizens have contrib-uted tirelessly to the fabric and sustained success of our great nation.

In his presidential proclamation, President Barack Obama highlighted Hispanic citizens.

“(They) have led movements that pushed our coun-try closer to realizing the democratic ideals of America’s founding documents, and they have served courageously as members of our armed forces to defend those ideals at home and abroad,” he said.

We honor Hispanics like Bernardo de Gálvez, colonial governor of Spanish Louisiana, who secretly sided with American colonists during the Revolutionary War and used his power to help us defeat the British, and Army veteran medical doctor Hector Perez Garcia, who served as an infantry officer, a combat engineer officer and a medical corps officer during World War II.

After his service, Garcia opened a medical prac-tice and tended to many Hispanic veterans who were denied treatment by military hospitals.

Responding to this injustice, Garcia formed the American GI Forum to guarantee Mexican-Americans the health and education benefits to which they were entitled.

Although these are only a couple examples, Hispanic citizens continue on with the tradition of selfless ser-vice.

According to 2011 Census figures, Hispanics account for 11 percent of our military force.

Personnel statistics for the Ramstein community indicate 13 percent of our brothers and sisters in arms

identify as Hispanic. We are united in our diversity and we should take a moment to reflect on the contributions Hispanics and all citizens are making toward building a better America.

Early intervention key to treating depressionby Sabriya DennisU.S. Army Public Health Command

October is National Depression Education and Awareness Month.

When feelings of sadness, anxiety or depression linger for long periods of time, it’s possible that a person could be clinically depressed. Depression is a very common condition affecting more than 20 million adults in the U.S. each year.

The Army’s suicide rate has increased signifi-cantly over the past five years. A diagnosis of depression is a risk factor that can contribute to sui-cidal thoughts, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Therefore, it is important to be attentive to signs of depression in others as well as oneself.

Depression is defined in the “Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders” as having five or more specified symptoms occur during the same two-week period of time and representing a change from the previous level of functioning. As part of the criteria, at least one of the symptoms has to be depressed mood or loss of interest or pleasure.

The remaining symptoms are:• Difficulty concentrating, remembering details

and making decisions• Energy levels are decreased or feelings of

fatigue• Persistent aches, pains, headaches, cramps, or

digestive problems • Running into feelings of hopelessness and/or

pessimism • Experiencing feelings of guilt, worthlessness

and/or helplessness

• Suicidal thoughts or suicide attempts• Sleeping excessively, early morning wakeful-

ness or insomnia• Irritability, restlessness• Overeating or loss of appetite• No interest in activities or hobbies once plea-

surable, including sexIssues such as loneliness, financial strain, lack of

social support, relationship problems, unemploy-ment, trauma, death of a loved one, alcohol or drug abuse, childhood abuse, family history of depres-sion, health problems or a recent stressful life expe-rience can place a person at risk for depression.

Though everyone may experience one or more of these issues, not everyone will respond to them in

the same way. The same is true for depression; not everyone experiences or exhibits depressive symp-toms in the same manner.

The following are common symptoms of depres-sion for various groups:

MEN• Fatigue, irritability, sleep problems, violence,

reckless behavior and substance abuseWOMENFeelings of guilt, excessive sleeping, overeating

and weight gainYouthIrritability, hostility, quick temperedness, unex-

plained aches and pain. If left untreated, these symptoms can lead to problems at home and school, or drug abuse.

Depression is treatable. Treatment for depression should be sought as early as possible so the indi-vidual can return to a healthy lifestyle and minimize the risk of greater illness. Treatment for depression includes the use of antidepressant medications, psy-chotherapy or a combination of both.

If you or someone you know is in a crisis, seek help immediately.

Here are some places that could help:• Call 911• Visit the emergency room or speak to a health

care provider• Call 1-800-273-TALK (1-800-273-8255); TTY

1-800-799-4TTY (4889) to speak with a trained counselor. This is a 24-hour toll-free hotline pro-vided by the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline.

If you are not sure if you or your loved one is experiencing depression, private screening tools are available online that provide immediate feedback.

Solutions to the Oct. 5 puzzle

Puzzle courtesy of http://thinks.com/

Frankenweenie (PG) — From creative genius Tim Burton (“Alice in Wonderland” and “The Nightmare Before Christmas”) comes “Frankenweenie,” a heartwarming tale about a boy and his dog. After unex-pectedly losing his beloved dog Sparky, young Victor harnesses the power of sci-ence to bring his best friend back to life — with just a few minor adjustments. He tries to hide his home-sewn creation, but when Sparky gets out, the entire town all learns that getting a new “leash on life” can be monstrous.

The Bourne Legacy (PG-13) — The narrative architect behind the “Bourne” fi lm series, Tony Gilroy, takes the helm in the next chapter of the hugely popular espionage franchise that has earned almost $1 billion at the global box offi ce: “The Bourne Legacy.” The writer/director expands the “Bourne” universe created by Robert Ludlum with an original story that introduces us to a new hero (Jeremy Renner) whose life-or-death stakes have been triggered by the events of the fi rst three fi lms.

Time for NEW furniture?


Having back and sciatic pain is a miserable – even crippling – condition.

You might not be able to play golf, work, or even sit in the car for a 30-minute drive. It’s almost impossible for anyone around you to under-stand how you feel. You can’t remember the last time you even had a restful night’s sleep.

You may have a condition called “Sciatica” if you’re suff ering from any of these annoying conditions. Sciatica is a compression of the sciatic nerve, usually by an L4 or L5 disc herniations.

Nothing’s worse than feeling great mentally, but physically feeling held back from life because your back or sciatica hurts and the pain just won’t go away!

Do You Have Any of the Following!• Sharp pains in the back of the leg• Lower Back Pain• Heriated/bulging dises• Numbness or soreness in your legs• Shooting hip or thigh pain• Musele spasm, sprains & strains

Fortunately, if you are suff ering from any of these problems, they may be relieved or eliminated with chiropractic adjustments.

“What’s The Chance This Will Work For Me?”Chiropractic has been around for over a hundred years, and has been used to help everyone from tiny babies to the elderly. Even top sports star and entertainers… like Tiger Woods, Emmitt Smith, Tony Robbins, Joe Montana, Lance Armstrong, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Mel Gibson.

These professional athletes have the money to hire any kind of doctors they want, yet they choose to have a chiropractor on their team. Here’s what some of the top medical researchers had to say about chiropractic…

“Manipulation [chiropractic adjustments], with or without exercise, improved symptoms more than medical care did after both 3 and 12 months.”– British Medical Journal

“Chiropractor’s manipulation of the spine was more helpful than any of the following: traction, massage, biofeedback, acupuncture, injection of steroids into the spine and back corsets, and ultrasound.” -- Stanley Bigos, MD, Professor of Orthopedic Surgery

This means in just a matter of weeks you could be back on the golf course, enjoying your love life, or traveling again.

Feel the Improvement – and Say “Yes” to Life AgainWith my “Back Pain And Sciatica Evaluation” we’ll be able fi nd the problem and then correct it. Think of how you’ll feel in just a few short weeks.

See and feel your life change for the better. Start your body on the way to pain-free, normal living. Feel tight joints rest, relax, free up. Feel muscles tied in knots become more supple. Feel strength in your muscles increase.

As you begin to see motion returning to your joints, you’re preventing and reducing chances of disability and a crippling future.

The Single Most Important Solu-tion To Your Sciatica and Back PainIt’s time for you to fi nd out if chiropractic will be

your sciatic and back pain solution.

For 14 days only, 50€ will get you all the services I normally charge new patients 100€ for!

What does this off er include? Everything I normally do in my new patient evaluation.

• An in-depth consultation about your health and well-being where I will listen…really listen…to the details of your case.

• A complete neuromuscular examination.

• A thorough analysis of your exam (and x-ray fi ndings when you bring them in) so we can start mapping out your plan to being pain free.

• I’ll provide answers to your questions, like…

… the best nutritional information proven to help with joint problems.

… which position, mattress, and pillow you should use for a good night’s rest.

… the foods that can help you and which ones can make you worse.

… how to exercise the right way so you aren’t making your pain worse.

Don’t Let Your Sciatica Get WorseTim Mick, DC, an associate professor and chair of the Department of Radiology at Northwestern Health Sciences University says…

“Untreated, sciatica can lead to a loss of muscle strength and muscle size that may be irrevers-ible. Eventually, there can be problems with gait.” Sciatica can be successfully treated. You can recover. Healthy, pain-free living should be yours.

Call today and we can get started with your consultation and exam as soon as there’s an opening in the schedule.

Our offi ce is called Praxis White Chiropractic and you can fi nd us at Bahnstrasse 104, in Landstuhl. (Between Penny Markt and German-American Healthcare Center MVZ Westpfalz). Tell the recep-tionist you’d like to come in for the Back Pain And Sciatica Evaluation before October 26, 2012. I look forward to helping you get rid of your pain so you can start living a healthier, more joyful life.

Are You Living With Sciatica Or Back Pain

...WHEN THERE IS A NON-INVASIVE, DRUGLESS SOLUTION?

P.S. You've got too many dreams left undone. Too many special moments waiting to be experienced. Life is too

short to let pain slow you down.

SINCERELY,DR. RENEE WHITE, D.C. AND ASSOCIATES

Don't live another day like this. Call and schedule for your evaluation.
