The rumbling of motorcycle engines signaled the start of a memorial service commemorat-

ing National POW/MIA Recognition Day last Friday on Naval Air Station Whidbey Island’s Seaplane Base. Hundreds of bik-ers, part of the Patriot Guard Riders, made their way up the hill to the POW/MIA Sentinel Memorial Fountain, where the noon service was held.

A modest crowd turned out for the

event, which opened with the presenta-tion of colors, which included the POW/MIA flag, by the Naval Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps as an ensemble from the Oak Harbor High School Band played the National Anthem. Navy Chaplain Dan Link performed the invo-cation.

The service was led by Lt. Cmdr. Brian Danielson, a member of the National League of Families for POW/MIAs whose father, Air Force Capt. Ben Danielson, was missing in action for 38 years.

“We spent a lot of time wondering,” he said. “We grew up very aware of the MIA/POW issue.”

Danielson said the existence of the mil-itary’s Code of Conduct, an agreement all military members make with their coun-try, explains why the POW/MIA issue is still relevant today. The code specifically addresses the conduct of service mem-bers if captured by the enemy.

“That’s pretty powerful stuff,” Danielson said. “It’s the sacred contract that I would bet is resonating in the psyche of anyone in uniform today, or who has worn one.

You might say a Burlington car dealer has gone to the dogs.

Summit Assistance Dogs in Anacortes was presented with a 2011 Toyota Prius Monday at Foothills Toyota Scion in Burlington, after winning it in the Toyota 100 Cars for Good initia-tive.

According to Foothills owner Pam Nelson, there were over 3,000 applica-tions nationally, which were whittled down to 500 charities. Over the course of 100 days, five charities went head to head in a social media contest — the organization that brought in the most votes each day won a car.

“You rallied all your sup-porters and shared your story with the public on that day and the public rewarded you,” Nelson said. “I will also mention you’re the only charity in the state of Washington to receive one of these cars.”

In front of a crowd of Toyota officials, Summit staff, volunteers and clients and several canines, keys to the new vehicle were handed over to Summit

founder Sue Meinzinger and development associate Erik Mann.

“We really went into this competition thinking that a small organization from Anacortes really wouldn’t have a chance going up against such organiza-tions as the Habitat for Humanity, so you guys really pulled through,” Mann said.

“We drive at least 200 miles every week on the highways around Washington,” said Meinzinger. “This is just an incredible opportunity for us to save a lot of money. I

just want to let you know what an opportunity this is and how many lives you’re going to change.”

Summit was also pre-sented with a vehicle service agreement from Toyota Financial and Foothills donated an additional $5,000 to the nonprofit group. Whidbey Island Bank also contribut-ed $2,500 to Summit, with the promise of a matching donation next year.

Summit provides mobili-ty, hearing and professional therapy dogs for people liv-ing with disabilities, at no cost to the recipient. The

group is looking to begin a new program called Serving Our Soldiers, which would provide ther-apy dogs to veterans suf-fering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

“There is a lot of passion behind the veterans pro-gram, as you can imagine with all the military in the area.” Meinzinger said. “The money will help us work on the application process and promotion, getting the word out to veterans.”

Meinzinger anticipates beginning to accept appli-cations for the veterans program in January.

Michelle Munro of Seattle received her balance mobility dog, Hayden, in 2006.

“I know what they’ve done for me,” she said. “Anything that leads to them helping more people is great.”

Alex Stone, 25, has had his mobility dog, Fraser, for five years. He said hav-ing Fraser has allowed him to travel independently, something he never would have been able to do before.

“I know the benefit I’ve had from Fraser and know-ing they’ll benefit someone else is awesome,” he said.

Monday morning, while my children sat in the living room watching one of the 198 episodes of “SpongeBob Squarepants” we

have saved on our DVR, I opened the newspaper and saw a report: “SpongeBob Squarepants” is bad for children. In particular, it is (reportedly) bad for 4-year-olds. It makes them inattentive and hyperactive. (And

this is differ-ent from every other 4-year-old because....?)

As early as 8 a.m. that morn-ing, Facebook was abuzz with mothers post-ing links to the article. “I knew

SpongeBob was bad!” they wrote. Or, “I never let my kids watch that junk.”

Of course, the other side—the SpongeBob-tolerant side—was also represented on Facebook: “So long as my kids don’t act like Patrick....” wrote one mother. And my status update: “My kids are DOOMED!”

When I first saw the report—flawed not in the least because 1) 4-year-olds are not the intended audience of “SpongeBob Squarepants,” as noted by its creators; and 2) the study only examined 60, yes, 60, children—I stopped mid-bite, a spoon full of cereal hovering over the newspaper, and considered my relationship with SpongeBob.

I first became aware of the cartoon on Ford’s second birthday. One of Dustin’s friends gave Ford a stuffed SpongeBob, and it seemed hideous. Why would I let my child watch this tacky, nearly fluorescent yellow charac-ter, which is shaped more like a kitchen sponge than an underwater one?

Four years passed. Ford was in kindergarten, and Owen was 4. I was speaking at a military-spouse event in Georgia, and while I was gone, Dustin let the boys order a movie from the hotel’s television menu. In the absence of many kid-friendly choices, the boys reluc-tantly chose the first SpongeBob Squarepants feature movie. They didn’t really know SpongeBob; they weren’t sure they’d like it. Neither was Dustin. Yet, when I came back to the hotel, all three attacked me: “Mom, you’ve got to see this!”

“Really, Sarah, this stuff is pretty funny.”Apparently, I had judged SpongeBob by his cover, if

you will, because Dustin and the boys were right. It’s a sophisticated kind of humor, full of irony and double meanings. It’s like Saturday Night Live skits for kids: Humor comes from the absurd, measured against your own understanding of culture and current events.

Oh sure, SpongeBob occasionally has an episode with technically inappropriate language. But the “Idiot Box” is funny because it’s inappropriate. My children know that. And sure, SpongeBob rips his pants while he’s trying to act cool and make people laugh, but humor comes from feeling embarrassment over every time we’ve ripped our pants or otherwise were caught trying to be something we’re not.

The new study says kids are distracted and not cre-ative after watching SpongeBob. Some of the things my kids have done after watching an episode include: writ-ing their own SpongeBob Squarepants script, making puppets and filming their own cartoon and writing a book about SpongeBob.

A few years after our family embraced SpongeBob, Lindell was born. He crawled around the living room, a bottle hanging from his mouth, while his brothers sang the familiar theme song. Within a few months, Lindell started babbling. “Bop bop bish,” he said, and we all wondered what he meant.

“What’s he saying? Is he trying to talk?”And then, all at once, I knew: Lindell was trying to

say SpongeBob Squarepants.Yes, my third son’s first word was SpongeBob. And

I’m OK with that. It could be worse. I look forward to reading his first SpongeBob script.

SpongeBob: He’s not so badBy Lt. j. g. DANIEL BUCCOLA

VP-40 Public Affairs

SINGAPORE — Patrol Squadron (VP) 40 joined forces with Commander, Task Group (CTG) 73 from August 17 to 29 in the fourth installation of the Cooperation Afloat Readiness and Training (CARAT) series during VP-40’s Seventh Fleet Deployment.

Two qualified combat aircrews (CAC) detached to Singapore to participate in the exercise, along with USS Chung Hoon (DDG 93), USS Curtis Wilbur (DDG 54), one U.S. Navy Maritime Security Team, one U.S. Marine Corps Fleet Anti-Terrorism Team, and a U.S. Navy SH-60 Seahawk helicopter.

CARAT is a series of bilateral military exercises con-ducted annually between U.S. Pacific Fleet and various Southeast Asia partner nations. This is the 17th year the United States military has participated in CARAT Singapore.

CACs 7 and 9 flew in three flights during the exercise. The first and second flights simulated red and blue force opposition and were quite challenging because Singapore is the busiest port in the world. Over one quarter of the world’s cargo ships transit through this port every year. The third flight focused on VP-40 doing what it does best: anti-submarine warfare. Again the high density of ship-ping traffic proved challenging, but CAC 7 was nonethe-less able to complete the exercise.

While the combat aircrews were not airborne, they par-ticipated in multiple symposiums along with Singaporean and U.S. surface forces. CAC 9 had the opportunity to visit the Republic of Singapore Air Force 121st Squadron ashore Changi Air Base. The 121st Squadron shared the capabilities of the F-50 Fokker and their recent deploy-ment experience, while VP-40 shared coordinated opera-tions experience.

“It was awesome to see the pride and enthusiasm that the 121st Squadron displayed when we talked about the mission,” said Lt. Christopher Lawson, patrol plane com-mander. “One could certainly tell they enjoyed supporting their country’s military.”

Members of the 121st had recently returned from their first deployment to Djibouti in support of counter-piracy operations promoting increased stability in Horn of Africa area. Their three-month deployment had them flying the F-50 Fokker, a turboprop aircraft the Singapore Air Force utilizes as their maritime patrol aircraft.

“CARAT Singapore was an excellent opportunity to meet with another great group of professionals,” said Lt. j.g. Jeffrey Graham of CAC 9. “The exercise was well planned and executed, and the exchange of ideas at the symposium was very informative. Working with our Singapore friends was quite a reward.”

This issue of the Whidbey Crosswind marks another milestone. It is our 26th, which means we are halfway through our first year

of publication!I find that hard to believe. It seems like just yes-

terday I was offered this job. I couldn’t believe they hired me then and I’m still surprised by it on a daily

basis. I remember writing about the

growing pains we would likely experience as we began this new “old” venture. While we have had a few, I’m happy with the way the Whidbey Crosswind has grown.

Our numbers were good from the start, and I can happily say this little paper continues to chug along, surpassing our expecta-tions.

Out of more than 7,000 papers printed each week, only about 200 remain the fol-lowing week. That makes for a return rate of about three percent, a figure I’m told is impressive when put up against comparable papers.

That also means our entire community — on base, off base, active duty, retired, civilian employees, mil-itary spouses and families — has found something worthwhile about the way we cover Navy news in the Oak Harbor area.

We’ve added some unique features, too, like our twice-monthly For Pets’ Sake column and syndi-cated family columnist Sarah Smiley, a Navy wife and mother. Look for more new writers to join the Crosswind community in the near future.

We’d still like to hear from you — we know there are veterans out there who have a unique perspective to share on any number of topics.

You’ve also done a great job telling us when news-worthy events are happening and I hope that contin-ues. I invite you to contact me at [email protected] or by calling 675-6611.

Thank you for making our first six months so suc-cessful and enjoyable. It is true that time flies when you’re having fun. I can’t wait to see what the next 26 issues will bring.

To the editor:I would like to express my deepest gratitude to

the men and women that rose to the occasion to honor our fallen heroes of 9/11.

These men and women work tirelessly respond-ing to the needs of every community on a daily basis, providing an invaluable service and security needed at a moment’s notice. Their willingness to serve others and self-sacrifice exemplifies the pro-fessionalism, patriotism, and courage that make our nation strong.

At the 10-year anniversary of 9/11, I was hon-ored to attend the memorial service that was orga-nized at the Windjammer Park in Oak Harbor. Thank you to Chief Sean Merrill for organizing the itinerary of this special tribute, to Kevin Browning for organizing the luncheon and to the many others who set up, spoke, shared music, cooked, attended and parachuted over our skies of freedom.

Participation was community-wide to include

the Navy Region Northwest Fire Dept., Whidbey Island EMS, Oak Harbor Fire Department, Island County District 2 and 3 Fire Departments, Island County Sheriff ’s Office, Oak Harbor Police Department, Oak Harbor Mayor, Island County Dispatchers, and the Commanding Officer of NAS Whidbey Island. It was truly awesome to see that Oak Harbor possesses the unity that was displayed on 9/11.

Thank you for remembering the sacrifices that were made that day. Let us remember the unpar-alleled courage of those who serve our country. Never let us forget and never let us waiver in our unity and resolve to protect our nation — one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. May God bless you all, and may God bless the United States of America.

Respectfully,David WaltonOak Harbor

National Championship Air Races in Reno, Nev.According to Corbin, they had left the box shortly

before the accident to head to the hospitality han-gar. George and Wendy Hewitt, former residents of Bellingham and members of the local group Cascade Warbirds, were in box B-40 when the plane slammed into the ground.

“It happened in just a matter of seconds,” said Corbin, who saw the whole incident. “He made a steep climb, rolled over like he should, but he didn’t have enough momentum to keep it going; he must have lost too much air speed.”

All that was left of the VIP box where Corbin had been sitting was a crater, he said.

A former Air Force pilot, Corbin said it appeared to him pilot Jimmy Leeward was having control problems, but that he was probably trying to steer the plane away from spectators.

“There is runway that goes directly out from the stands,” he said. “I think that was his aim.”

While the accident is under investigation by the National Transportation Safety Board, Corbin said it

appeared the left stabilizer trim tab, which would help stabilize the aircraft, was missing, causing the plane to vibrate. The vibration would have made the plane difficult to control, according to Corbin.

“Lord knows what happened,” Corbin said. “With the thing vibrating like that, who knows what else could have broken loose.”

Following the crash, Corbin said people “kind of held their own and pitched in to help.”

Corbin, who flies a Beech T-34 at the Whidbey Island Navy Flying Club on Naval Air Station Whidbey Island, said the P-51 involved in the crash had been modified for racing.

“They chop off a good portion of the outer wing and use them for racing,” he said. “They’re pretty good air-planes.”

As of press time, the death toll from the accident stood at 10. The Hewitts had moved from Bellingham to Fort Mohave, Ariz. just over a year ago. Washington resident Greg Morcom, 47, of Marysville was also killed.

The air races have been held in Reno every September for the past 47 years. Corbin said he has attended the event for the past five years, along with several other Cascade Warbirds members.

“It’s the exis-tence of our country’s process of hon-oring and return-ing our missing service-men and ensures that our govern-ment makes good on their end of the deal of that con-tract,” he continued.

Danielson shared a story about his time as an Individual Augmentee in Laos, where he helped excavate the remains of a missing service member.

“I will never forget a spe-cial night when I was with my team in Laos when I lifted my glass and toasted, ‘Until he is home.’ I was stopped immediately by the rest of the team who said, ‘No sir, until they are all home,” said Danielson. “Right now, as we speak, there are teams deployed all over the world whose key ethos and motivation for enduring long hours

and bone-breaking exhaus-tion is that specific phrase — until they are all home.”

According to Danielson, there are still 83,000 service members still missing from various conflicts: 73,000 from World War II; 7,900 from the Korean War; 125 from the Cold War; and 1,682 from Vietnam. The names of approximately 30 service members who were repatriated in the past

year were read by Cmdr. Keith Eitner, commanding officer of Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 129’s Squadron Augment Unit. As Eitner read the names, Danielson and Christine Picchi, widow of former prisoner of war Roger Lerseth, raised the POW/MIA flag.

Island County Commissioner Angie Homola shared a brief his-

tory of the flag and read a proclamation by President Obama. The observance drew to a close with a fly-over by VAQ-129 and a 21-gun salute by an NAS Whidbey honor guard. “Taps” was played by Oak Harbor High School stu-dents Sam Glavick and Elyse Anderson.

“It’s nice to do some-thing for the community,” Anderson said.

By MELANIE HAMMONSWhidbey Crosswind

The motorcycle riders gathered last Friday for a

POW/MIA Recognition Day event on the Seaplane base sought to honor and remember those Americans still counted as prisoners of war or missing in action.

A contingent of motor-cycle riders affiliated with local Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 7392 turned out for the event. These riders are everyday people such as T.K. Lundin, veteran’s wife, sister of a Desert Storm combat soldier, and pri-mary road captain for the VFW motorcycle group.

“My whole family is military,” said Lundin. She went on to say that her husband’s cousin’s name is listed on the Vietnam Wall.

“For us, it’s very per-sonal,” she said. “We pro-vide a rolling honor guard for fallen warriors. And we also support missions for their families.”

The riders and others at the ceremony seek to build support for efforts to free prisoners of war, and to apply pressure on other countries to return American service mem-bers’ remains. They put an equal amount of energy into supporting the affect-ed families.

Lundin and nearly all of the VFW riders are also members of the Patriot Guard Riders, which num-ber nearly 250,000 nation-wide.

The Patriot Guard is a relatively new organiza-tion, less than 10 years old, which seeks to promote reverent remembrances at service members’ funer-

als while at the same time shielding grieving family members from uninvited protest groups.

“It’s sort of an irony,” noted Lundin, “that as a group, we’re such strong supporters of our American rights, which include freedom of speech, and the right to peaceably assemble.

“But we’re just as strong-ly opposed to intrusion on the family members at their loved ones’ funer-als,” she continued We are committed to meeting these unwanted intrusions by using the purely legal, nonviolent, and peaceful means at our disposal,” she said.

Friday’s observance in honor of POWs and MIAs took place under partly sunny skies, with a gentle breeze blowing. But the weather, of course, would not have altered their plans, said Lundin.

“I remarked to someone

that I was pleased to see sunshine this morning,” said Lundin. “Rain or shine, though, our plans were to ride today.”

The PGR, distinguish-able by the yellow arm-bands worn on their left sleeves, led the procession onto the Seaplane base in a missing man forma-

tion. VFW rider Thomas Catoire served as the “tail gunner” for the proces-sion, ensuring that all rid-ers arrived safely onto the base, with no mishaps or mechanical breakdowns.

Some riders desire to honor those they, or family members, knew personally. Catoire is one of these.

“My dad served in Vietnam,” said Catoire. “He still has friends over in Vietnam who are counted among the missing.”

One of the highlights of Friday’s ceremony was the reading aloud of names of former MIAs, some from all the way back to World War II, who had been repa-triated in the last year. That is bound to be a deeply significant event for their

family members, said VFW rider and former Air Force Major Al Comeau.

“I have two comrades whose remains were not returned until about five years ago,” said Comeau, a Vietnam veteran.

“Sometimes, I think about my friend’s daughter — for 35 years, she didn’t know where her dad was.”

Comeau’s reasons for riding are two-fold, he says.

“I ride in honor of their lives and service, and I ride out of respect for the living family members.”
