from the Air Station were Col. Peter Buck, the Air Station commanding officer, and Sgt. Maj. KeCia Jordan, the Air Station sergeant major.

"Those lost in war were not lost just to a family and to friends, but to a nation,” Haas said. “Your presence today shows you have not forgotten the reason for this very som-ber day. Thank you for taking action to pre-serve their memory this day."

From the Revolutionary War to the pres-ent, generations of Americans have been willing to take up arms and die, if necessary, in order to preserve the nation's freedoms, Haas said.

"We are here today because we respect the memory of those who committed to being something larger than themselves," Jones said. "We not only remember those who gave their lives in defense of honor and lib-erty, but we also honor those still serving."

Marine Corps Air Station Beau-fort food service specialists com-peted in the Mess Hall Cook-Off at the Consolidated Mess Hall aboard Marine Corps Recruit De-pot Parris Island, May 20.

The competition pit Marines against Sodexo mess hall cooks. To compete in the biannual com-petition the Marines needed to complete the Culinary Founda-tions Course and have one of the top four scores in the class. The cook-off was held to teach Marines how to think creatively

and use their knowledge to cre-ate unique dishes.

Air Station food service special-ists Cpl. Kelly Adams, Cpl. Juan Garay, Lance Cpl. Fermin Sanchez and Lance Cpl. De’Von Jackson competed in the competition.

“Each year it seems as if the food just gets better,” said Joey Carles, the general manager of the Consolidated Mess Hall aboard Parris Island. “Through this competition we hope to get the cooks out of their comfort zones. They are so used to cook-ing alongside a very strict menu, but here they can break away and use their own backgrounds

and styles to make something different.”

In the competition, there were four teams with two cooks each competing against one another. The winning team would receive first-place medals, a cookware set and a trophy.

“When I found out I was going to participate in the cook-off, I was excited,” Jackson said. “I hope to take away different skills from this event that I can use to fur-ther my Marine Corps career and when I get out of the service.”

The contest was judged by a panel of four Marines, who se-lected the winner based on taste,

temperature and presentation. “It’s good to see some competi-

tion, so it keeps all the chefs and cooks on top of their game,” said Chief Warrant Officer 4 Eugene Lucas, the station ordnance of-ficer for Headquarters and Head-quarters Squadron aboard the Air Station. “I have judged this competition many times, but it’s seeing the competitive spirit in the participants, the teamwork, effort and delicious food that brings me back every time.”

Other judges included Gun-nery Sgt. Curtis Magee, the com-pany gunnery sergeant for Head-quarters and Service Company

on Parris Island, 1st Sgt. Patrick Stevens, the company first ser-geant for H&S Company, and Master Sgt. Gabriel Martinez, the traffic chief for Headquar-ters and Headquarters Squadron aboard the Air Station.

“Although I came in last place, I am still proud of how I did and what I was able to accomplish,” Jackson said. “Everyone, espe-cially the Sodexo cooks, did very well, and I am interested to see what we can all bring to the ta-ble when we go back to our daily routines. At the end of the day it was a great experience and I hope I can participate in it again.”

Cook-Off challenges Marines, develops creativity

Lance Cpl. Fermin Sanchez and Cpl. Kelly Adams, food service specialists from Marine Corps Air Station Mess Hall 2080, compete in the Mess Hall Cook-Off held at the Consolidated Mess Hall on Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, May 20. To compete in the biannual competition, Marines must complete the Culinary Foundations Course and have one of the top four scores in the class. The cook-off was held to reinforce creative thinking and to encourage Marines to use their knowledge to create unique recipes.

Marines play basketball at the Marine All-Weather Fighter Attack Squadron 533 unit celebration, May 17. The celebration gave Marines a chance to relax and spend time together before getting into the 101 Critical Days of Summer.

Marines with Marine All-Weather Fighter Attack Squadron 533 play cornhole at their unity celebration, May 17. The party brought the VMFA(AW) 533 fam-ily together over food, laughter and celebration of accomplishments.

“This gives them a chance to break bread together and know that we’re in this to-gether while reiterating the importance of staying safe.”

Staying safe is an important message for the squadron, especially as summer begins. Togetherness and recognition are an equally important mes-sage.

“We just got back from pro-viding air support at Naval Air Facility El Centro’s Weap-ons and Tactics Instructor course, and recently received the highest score in the air wing on the Aviation Logis-tics Management Assist Team evaluation inspections,” said O’Rourke. “The guys around here do a phenomenal job with programs.”

During the ALMAT, the squadron was inspected on 40 maintenance and safety programs. The squadron im-proved their score in a later inspection by the Chief of Na-val Operations.

“Knowing what’s ahead and planning it out has become a well-practiced science to us,” said Chief Warrant Officer 2 Sikhan Chin, maintenance material control officer for VMFA(AW)-533. “The ability to plan ahead and plan safely al-lowed us to excel.”

Performing well on inspec-tions like the ALMAT and CNAF requires Marines to be consis-tently on top of and improv-ing safety and maintenance. Marines with VMFA(AW)-533 prepared throughout the year for the inspections.

“The way they practice their daily procedures pre-pared them for the inspec-tions and made it easy for them,” said Sgt. Maj. Der-rick Mays, sergeant major of VMFA(AW)-533. “We have out-standing non-commissioned officers, staff NCOs and offi-cers that lead by example dai-ly. We are very proud of them day in and day out.”

Marines and their families play and eat at the Marine All-Weather Fighter Attack Squadron 533 unit celebration, May 17. The celebration was held to celebrate accomplishments and prepare Marines for the hazards of summer.

subordinates and peers feel that I make a difference,” said Sgt. Michael McIntire, an AIR-speed coordinator with Ma-rine Aviation Logistics Squad-ron 31.

“These awards were re-viewed at the highest level by the commandant and sergeant major of the Marine Corps,” said Hedelund. “The Marines in Beaufort did fantastic.”

While speaking to Fighter-town Marines, Hedelund reit-erated the message from the commandant of the Marine Corps, Gen. James F. Amos, that non-commissioned offi-cers and officers are the key to the future of the Marine Corps.

Margolis, a native of Reston, Va., joined the Marine Corps in 1994. He most recently served as the pro-fessional programs branch head aboard the Marine Corps Univer-sity’s Lejeune Leadership Institute.

He became an officer after be-ing selected for Officer’s Candidate School as a corporal in 1996.

Lieblein thanked Bailey for his strong leadership and detailed planning as the commanding offi-cer of the squadron.

MALS-31 provides aviation logis-

tics support, guidance, planning and direction to MAG-31.

“MALS-31 is the main effort within MAG-31, because without them we wouldn’t succeed,” said Lieblein.

At any given time, MALS-31 has approximately 200 Marines de-ployed in support of Air Station squadrons, according to Lieblein.

“They get it done right the first time, every time,” said Bailey. “They’re always looking for new ways to improve every facet of the squadron.”

“I’m very humbled and honored to have had this opportunity to lead this squadron, and I’m proud to call myself a Stinger,” said Bailey.

BELLEAU, FRANCE -- Volunteers including Ma-rines, familly members and grounds keepers placed French and American flags in front each of the 2,289 grave markers prior to the Belleau Wood memorial, May 24.

JACKSONVILLE, FLA. -- Nine assault am-phibious vehicles and their crews of Marines sped, one by one, down the ramp of a Mari-time Prepositioning Force ship May 15 and into the Marine Corps Support Facility Blount Island slipway adjacent to the St. John’s River, Jacksonville, Florida, testing the operational capabilities of the AAVs.

The hulls of the AAVs were hidden in spray as each one collided with a wall of seawater.

As officials at Blount Island Command looked on intently, thick, black smoke filled the air when the AAV engines roared as each one disembarked.

This was the scene as Marines with 3rd As-sault Amphibian Battalion, 1st Marine Divi-sion, Camp Pendleton, California, splashed nine prepositioned AAVs during an amphibi-ous assault training exercise.

The launching of the AAVs, from Bobo Class Ship U.S. Naval Ship Pfc. Dewayne T. Williams, marked the first time in several years that tracks have splashed from a MPF ship, accord-ing to Col. Matthew R. Crabill, commanding officer, BIC.

The exercise is the first step in a program that will be executed during the next 18 months to two years where AAVs will be launched from each type of MPF ship, accord-ing to Crabill.

Crabill said the exercise tested the Marines’ and the ship crew’s capabilities.

Once the launch was completed, the AAVs were piloted down the slipway to a nearby landing beach.

Crabill said the AAVs can be used in almost any contingency for carrying troops on land to transporting supplies back and forth from a ship.

“We unload the entire ship and use a con-tractor to refurbish everything including vehicles, tanks (and) trucks, to the supplies on the ship,” he said. “We reload the ship and make sure everything is pristine and send the ship back out to sea.”

The MPF program is a fleet of 12 ships that are divided into two squadrons: one in the Pa-cific Ocean and the other in the Indian Ocean.

MARINE CORPS AIR STATION CHERRY POINT, N.C. - The Army Special Operations Command Parachute Demonstration Team, also known as the Black Daggers, came to show how they represent their stars and stripes during the 2014 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show May 16-18.

Conducting their first show of the year, the Black Daggers are a team of highly-skilled staff noncommissioned officers who perform free fall parachute demonstrations world-wide, completing an average of 1,250 prac-tice and performance jumps every year.

The team has participated in more than 10 air shows since being together, according to Army Staff Sgt. Justin B. McIntosh, an infan-tryman with the 75th Regiment with special duty to the USASOC.

During the air show, the soldiers used sin-gle harness dual parachute systems, seven cell ram-air parachutes designed to allow a parachutist to safely jump with up to 100 pounds of equipment.

The equipment helps jumpers withstand high winds, frigid temperatures and low oxy-gen levels at high altitudes.

The team used smoke grenades, pyrotech-nics and flags during their demonstration to enhance the performance during the day and night shows.

“Today we had combat equipment dur-ing our piece of the air show and we had four jumpers participate,” said McIntosh. The soldiers paid tribute to active-duty service members and veterans for their dedication to the United States by flying the Prisoner of War flag alongside the American flag.

The soldiers also completed a crew jump called canopy relative work with a 200 square feet American flag.

“Having aero shells surplus while flying the American flag doesn’t always happen,” said Army Staff Sgt. William Wallace, a psychologi-cal operations staff noncommissioned officer assigned to Headquarters Company with USASOC.

“The first jump with them jumping out with the American flag was the best part of their performance,” said David J. Brown, an at-tendee of this year’s air show, and former sol-ider with the 68th Chemical Company. “We all have a job to do and at the end of the day, we all support the same mission and that’s to support and defend the United States of America.”

AAV splash: Marines return to amphibious roots

Corporal Stephen Hornbeck, field radio operator, Weapons Company, 1st Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment, and a native of Chicago, works on satellite communication during a mission in Helmand province, Afghanistan, May 12. The company disrupted Taliban fighters to aid in the retrograde of Sturga II, a British base northeast of Lashkar Gah. The battalion has conducted dozens of mis-sions since they assumed their battlespace March 15, but this was their first combat engagement with insurgents since their arrival in country.

CAMP LEATHERNECK, Afghanistan – As Marines departed Sangin District, one of Afghanistan’s most dangerous areas, they were supported by British soldiers with Maneuver Battle Group who provided security to ensure a safe convoy to Camp Leatherneck.

To return the favor, Marines with Weapons Company, 1st Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment, supported MBG dur-ing their turnover of Sterga II, a British base northeast of Lashkar Gah, May 12 and 13.

They aided the British soldiers by conducting mounted security patrols in order to deter insurgent exploitation of the coalition force withdrawal.

The company departed Camp Leath-erneck and patrolled southeast though Gereshk. From there they proceeded south through open desert toward Ka-koran, an improvised explosive device facilitation node and an area where attacks on coalition forces are often planned and coordinated.

As the company approached Kakoran, vehicles in the patrol were attacked by enemy fighters with rocket-propelled grenades and small-arms fire. Vehicles hastily moved to isolation positions to locate the insurgents and known caches. Marines were just beginning to

remove civilians from a compound to engage an insurgent when they came under accurate and sustained small-arms fire from a different compound. Simultaneously, the Marines received intelligence that enemy fighters were moving weapon systems, to include machine guns and RPGs, to positions to engage the infantrymen.

The battalion has conducted dozens of missions since they assumed con-trol of the battlespace March 15, but this was their first combat engagement with insurgents since their arrival in country.

For the average citizen, the situation may have been overwhelming, but the Marines of Weapons Co. had been training for that very moment since they first stepped on the yellow foot-prints at recruit training.

“Every time we leave the wire, we have to have the thought in our minds that we are going to receive enemy fire,” said Sgt. Sloan Seiler, a section leader with Weapons Co. and a native of Han-ston, Kansas. “For us it was just another patrol. Just because we got fired at dur-ing this patrol and not the other ones doesn’t change the mission for us.”

Scout snipers began to scan the area for the enemy fighters. Insurgents will often fire from concealed positions for a brief moment and quickly move to new positions to avoid being detected.

The scout snipers quickly gained posi-tive identification of the fighters and began to engage them.

After hours of fighting, the crest of the sun began to disappear over the horizon and the fighting ceased. The company established a cordon posi-tion in the vicinity of the town to keep a presence in the area throughout the night. They maintained constant secu-rity and shot illumination rounds into the sky to disrupt the enemy fighters. The night was quiet and without gun-fire, but fighters occasionally crept out and monitored Marines’ positions.

After long hours of maintaining se-curity behind mounted machine guns, the sun began to rise and the company departed Kakoran. After receiving sus-tained enemy fire for nearly four hours the day prior, the company returned to the friendly lines of Camp Leatherneck with each Marine and sailor safe and unharmed.

“I was very pleased with the Marines’ performance during the engagement,” said Capt. Scott Stewart, the command-ing officer of Weapons Co. and a native of El Cajon, Calif. “They understood their rules of engagement, obtained positive identification and verified there would be no civilian casualties or collateral damage. They relied on their training as well as their small-unit lead-ers and vehicle commanders.”

MARINE CORPS BASE, CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. -- Master Sgt. Donovan Petty, a criti-cal skills operator with 2nd Marine Special Operations Battalion, was awarded the Sil-ver Star Medal by Maj. Gen. Mark A. Clark, commander U.S. Marine Corps Forces Special Operations Command, during a ceremony at the MARSOC headquarters at Stone Bay May 12.

Petty served as a team chief with Com-bined Joint Special Operations Task Force-Afghanistan in 2012 when his unit was tasked with capturing a local insurgent leader. During the detention operation, Petty and his unit came under attack in-side an open courtyard.

Armed insurgents fired at Petty as he maneuvered through the courtyard in an attempt to suppress the enemy fighting position. During the exchange, insurgents lobed hand grenades at Petty’s position, forcing him to withdraw from the court-yard.

As the team chief, Petty knew he needed to gain a position of advantage over the enemy fighters and moved to the rooftop of a nearby building. Petty again exposed himself to enemy fire to employ a hand grenade against the enemy. Petty’s initia-tive and swift action resulted in the cap-ture of the insurgent leader.

During the ceremony, Petty humbly accepted his award but said his Marines were the ones who really deserved the recognition.

“The Marine Corps isn’t about awards,” said Petty. “The Marine Corps is about the Marine who stands next you, both to the left and to the right. Each one of my Ma-rines who were there that day are deserv-ing of this award.”

MARINE CORPS AIR STATION CHERRY POINT, N.C. -- The F-35B Lightning II made its East Coast performing debut May 16 – 18 dur-ing the Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point “Inspiration to Innovation” Air Show.

The F-35B is a joint strike fighter that will replace three of the Marine Corps’ existing airframes (Harrier, F/A-18 and Prowler), said Capt. Ross Fearon, the aviations safety officer and F-35B pilot with Marine Fighter Attack Training Squadron 501, who was helping man the static display of the aircraft out of Eglin Air Force Base, Fla.

The F-35B contains capabilities from three different aircraft all wrapped up into one. The F-35B is capable of vertical take-off and land-ing of the Harrier, the supersonic capabilities of the F/A-18 and the electronic warfare capa-bilities of the Prowler.

“We really enjoy showing people the aircraft that will eventually be stationed at their bases because it is important for people to see what their tax dollars are going toward,” said Fearon. “This is the newest fighter in the arsenal so it is important that people can come out here and take a look at the jet.”

The F-35B has a user-friendly interface ca-pable of taking a lot of stress off of the pilot, according to Fearon.

“The jet is really easy to fly and it is really easy to learn how to fly,” he said. “This jet takes a lot of the workload off of the pilot’s shoulder because it is a very stable and pilot friendly aircraft.”

During the air show, pilots showcased the aircraft by answering questions, having a static display and performing a live demon-stration of the aircraft.

“People were really excited to come out and see something they had never seen be-fore,” said Maj. James T. Bardo, an F-35B pilot with VMFAT-501, who performed in the show. “They certainly haven’t seen it in an air show so it was exciting for me to interact with the public and answer any questions they had.”

Just like the public had never seen the F-35B before, the pilots never thought they’d be fly-ing the world’s most advanced aircraft, said Fearon.

“I never thought I’d be flying one of these,” said Fearon. “I used to fly the Harrier and when the opportunity came up to fly the F-35B, I threw my name in the hat just to see what would happen so I wouldn’t regret it later on. It’s definitely an honor to have the opportu-nity to fly the newest jet in the inventory.”

BELLEAU, France - Ninety-six years ago marks the anniversary of the historic Battle of Belleau Wood. To commemorate the battle and celebrate Memorial Day, hundreds of men and women came together at Aisne-Marne Cemetery in the small town of Belleau, France.

“It is a moral duty, but also an immense honor, to pay homage to the memory of all those who fell for a just cause. This year, once again, the United States and France commemorate the anniversary of the Battle of Belleau Wood, which took place, here be-tween the 1st and 26th of June, 1918,” said Gen. Bertrand Ract-Madoux, Chief of Staff of the French Army.

The morning began with a wreath laying ceremony on the historic grounds of Bel-leau Wood where the Commandant of the Marine Corps, Gen. James F. Amos and Gen. Ract-Madoux addressed the United States Marines and French soldiers that traveled from around the world to be apart of the cer-emony.

“There is perhaps no more hollowed ground then Belleau Wood where we stand today. In the history of the United States Ma-rine Corps the battle of Belleau Wood was an epic fight that defined the Marine Corps for-ever,” said Amos.

Gen. Amos, on behalf of the President of the United States, also presented Gen. Ract-Madoux with a Legion of Merit, for his supe-rior service and strengthening the relation-ship and interoperability between the United States and France. During the award presen-tation Gen. Amos spoke about the ongoing friendship between the two nations and the training partnership between 2nd Marine

Division and the 6th Armored Brigade of the French Army.

“We will train together in the future and we will deploy together in the future,” he said.

Following the more intimate ceremony, the Marines, soldiers and family members walked through the woods down to the Aisne-Marne Cemetery to join the crowds for the main event.

The main event included welcome remarks from the cemetery’s superintendent, Mr. Da-vid Atkinson, the Mayor of Belleau, Mrs. Na-dia Crapart, a reading of poems from local students and memorial addresses from Gen. Amos and Gen. Ract-Madoux. Following the addresses officers and representatives from both nations laid wreaths, firing of vol-

leys took place, Taps was played, there was a raising of the United States and French col-ors, and finally a concert by the French and American military band units.

The Memorial Day remembrance is hosted annual by the American Battle Monuments Commission which was established in 1923 to commemorate the service achievements and sacrifice of U.S. Armed Forces.

“Through the homage that we pay to those who in the past gave all on these fields of bat-tle let us not forgot to salute the virtues of our soldiers and Marines of today who, by their military status show themselves every day to be worthy heirs and who thus preserve by their action and their valor, the flame of remembrance,” Gen. Ract-Madoux said.

United States Marines and their French counterparts gathered at Aisne-Marne American Cemetery May 25 to celebrate Memorial Day, and to mark the 96th anniversary of the historic Battle of Belleau Wood. The event was held in the memorial cemetery which lies adjacent to the historic grounds of Belleau Wood and featured the laying of wreathes, a fir-ing of volleys, the playing of “TAPS,” raising of the American and French national colors, and a concert by the French and Marine Corps military bands.

1st LAR participates in Desert ScimitarLance Cpl. Angel Serna1st Marine Division

MARINE CORPS AIR GROUND COMBAT CENTER TWENTYNINE PALMS, Calif. – Ma-rines with 1st Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion conducted a combined-arms, live-fire exercise here May 12-16.

The training was part of Exercise Desert Scimitar, a large-scale exercise involving air, ground and logistical elements of I Marine Expeditionary Force. It tested 1st Marine Di-vision’s capability to act as the headquarters element for I MEF in a deployed environment and provided the opportunity for supporting units like 1st LAR to hone their conventional warfighting skills.

1st LAR’s ability to use multiple weapon systems and to operate with other units such as tanks, bolstered the quality of support they provided to the RCTs explained Capt.

Chester Carter, commanding officer of Delta Company.

“There was integration of quick-fire plans and fire-support teams into a company scheme of maneuver so that we truly used combined-arms operations,” he added.

Many of 1st LAR’s crews are new to the Ma-rine Corps’ operating forces and the exercise gave them an opportunity to operate as a battalion said Sgt. Garrett Mellor, a gunner with the company.

“We had a lot of good training, even down to all the new Marines,” said Mellor. “We made sure we were teaching the new drivers how to drive and the new gunners were being taught the ins and outs of the guns. From top to bottom, everyone received a learning ex-perience.”

Not only was the exercise physically chal-lenging, it required the Marines to change their thinking by developing a mindset of

focusing on the long-term impact of the ex-ercise.

“The primary change was maturity,” said Mellor. “Younger Marines started to grasp the concept of the training by being not as con-cerned about themselves, and they started to see the bigger picture.”

The exercise improved 1st LAR’s overall character and helped Marines practice es-sential skills necessary to become a well-run and organized unit.

“The training impacted us by helping build cohesiveness,” said Carter. “It’s the first time we’ve been able to go from start to finish; working through a problem and building a plan, then executing that plan as a whole.”

Exercises like Desert Scimitar help to en-sure mission readiness and unit cohesion. Marines from 1st LAR are better prepared for future operations and they continue to main-tain a state of readiness.
