Headquarters and Headquarters Battalion said goodbye to one of its own July 10, as they held a memorial service at the Daniel Circle Chapel for Staff Sgt. Joseph Murphy.

Murphy, who passed away July 2, was remembered as a good friend and leader.

“Staff Sgt. Murphy made an impression on the people around him,” said Chaplain (Capt.) Christopher R. Ball, “and not only that, but he allowed others to make an impression on him.”

One of those who Murphy made a lasting impression on was his company commander, Capt. Derrick Bishop.

Now that we are fully immersed in the summer months, there are several considerations that need to be taken into ac-count when planning for work. The most important is preparing the workforce for working in the heat. Every year, thousands of workers become victims to heat-related illnesses, but with the proper preventive measures, we can eliminate their occurrence.

As part of the Occupational Safety and Health Administra-tion’s campaign to Keep Workers Safe in the Heat, a variety of resources have been made available to help in planning work tasks so action can be taken to prevent heat-related illness. As part of this campaign, OSHA has partnered with the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health to develop the Heat Safety Tool. This tool is available as an app on Android and Apple devices in both English and Spanish. Due to the tool’s mobile capability, it can easily be accessed to provide real-time information on demand.

Once downloaded, the tool permits workforce planners, and even the workforce itself, to input their workplace location to determine the corresponding heat index for a given day, even hour-by-hour. The heat index is a more accurate value in de-termining the susceptibility of heat-related illnesses than only using the air temperature. It takes into account the relative hu-midity along with the air temperature into a single value that represents how hot the weather actually feels to the individual working in the heat.

Once the heat index is calculated, the tool will display an associated risk level (low, moderate, high, very high/extreme) and provide suggested measures to be implemented to aid in the protection against heat-related illnesses. All applicable controls should be considered during the planning of work to ensure the appropriate resources are available so the workforce can be protected in the hottest weather.

A Chief of Chaplains’ initiative moves forwardU.S. Army ChaplainCenter and School

The U.S. Army Chaplain Center and School’s transformation is about leverag-ing the best of its history as chaplains look back while moving forward – all with the intent to better serve key constituents: The corps, our commanders, and our students.

As part of Department of the Army Execution Order 265-16, a key part of Chaplain Corps transformation is the U.S. Army Chaplain Center and School trans-formation.Currently transformation is un-derway along three historic lines of effort.

First, the organization is undergoing thoughtful reorganization, to become an Army Center of Excellence-like institu-tion. This will align the structure of USA-CHCS more closely with the structure of ����� (���������� ������� ��'� �������centers and schools – doing Army things the Army way.

Second, integration will better take place as the ACOE-like organization be-comes a nexus of communication, coordi-nation, and cooperation for the Corps.

Heat-related illnesses are 100 percent preventable. Take proactive measures to protect your workforce. To download the Heat Safety Tool smartphone app, visit OSHA’s website at https://www.osha.gov/heat/.

OSHA’s Heat Illness Prevention cam-paign, launched in 2011, educates em-ployers and workers on the dangers of working in the heat. Through training sessions, outreach events, informational sessions, publications, social media mes-saging and media appearances, millions of workers and employers have learned how to protect workers from heat. Our safety message comes down to three key words: Water. Rest. Shade.

DANGERS OF WORKINGIN THE HEAT

Every year, dozens of workers die and thousands more become ill while working in extreme heat or humid conditions. More than 40 percent of heat-related worker deaths occur in the construction industry, � �(��$����������������'������ ����������There are a range of heat illnesses and they can affect anyone, regardless of age or physical condition.

EMPLOYER RESPONSIBILITYTO PROTECT WORKERS

Under OSHA law, employers are re-sponsible for providing workplaces free of known safety hazards. This includes protecting workers from extreme heat. An employer with workers exposed to high temperatures should establish a complete heat illness prevention program.

� Provide workers with water, rest and shade.

� Allow new or returning workers to gradually increase workloads and take more frequent breaks as they acclimatize, or build a tolerance for working in the heat.

� Plan for emergencies and train work-ers on prevention.

� Monitor workers for signs of illness.OSHA’s Occupational Exposure to

Heat page, https://www.osha.gov/SLTC/heatstress/index.html, explains what em-ployers can do to keep workers safe and what workers need to know, including factors for heat illness, adapting to work-ing in indoor and outdoor heat, protecting (��$���;� ������������ ��&��&�� ��'� ����aid training.

Soldiers will still get adequate time to rehabilitate from an injury. But under a new “deploy-or-be-removed” policy, De-fense Secretary James Mattis said in February that troops who are non-deployable for more than 12 months will be processed for administrative separation or referred to the disability evalu-ation system.

“Generally speaking, somebody who has a long-term perma-������������������� '����$���������������&��������������-able for duty in the Army,” McGurk said.

At about $20 million, the new test will be more costly for the Army to conduct. A single lane of equipment at full retail value is about $1,200. A battalion set of equipment will range from $12,000 to $20,000. Those prices will likely drop as the Army buys more sets at wholesale.

Equipment should last about 10 years, meaning it will cost less than $3 per Soldier over time.

“If I have a femoral neck fracture in the hip of a Soldier,

that injury will cost the government about $1 million,” McGurk said. “So, if I avoid 20 of those injuries a year I’ve paid for the program for the next 10 years for equipment. The potentials on �� ����������������������I

COST AVOIDANCEThe Army estimates $4 billion is spent each year due to inju-

ries, non-deployable Soldiers, accidents and other health-related costs.

As part of its culture change, the Army is building a Holistic \�������'�`����������&������' ��������������'��������-diers. The new test is one piece of the system, in addition to the {%=�;�����&�����&�����������������;���'�����������������at chow halls.

Army researchers studied foreign militaries that have rolled out similar holistic programs and found them to be highly suc-cessful.

The Australian army, for instance, introduced it to their basic training and saw a roughly 30 percent reduction in injuries.

“Do I know we’re going to have a 25-30 percent reduction? No, but I certainly hope we will,” McGurk said. “We think (the test is) well worth it and it’s the right thing to do for Soldiers in any case.”

Feedback from Soldiers so far has also been overwhelmingly positive.

S.C. Army National Guard preparing for training exercise in TexasBy LT. COL. CINDI KINGSouth Carolina National Guard

Did you see all the military vehicles lined up on Shop Road in Columbia, South Carolina last week?

It wasn’t anything but the South Carolina Army National Guard’s 4-118th Combined Arms Battal-ion, 218th Maneuver Enhancement Brigade, pre-paring for a training exercise called, “Exportable Combat Training” at Fort Bliss, Texas.

More than 200 wheeled and tracked vehicles from the 4-118th CAB are being moved and staged for transport via railcars along Garners Ferry Road, Leesburg Road and Assembly Street near the State Fairgrounds in Columbia, South Carolina, through-out the weeks of July 9 and 16.

“Our more than 500 Soldiers will be joining National Guard Soldiers from West Virginia and North Carolina for the XCTC in August,” said Lt. Col. Joe Bulwinkle, commander of the 4-118th CAB.

“This event is important for us as we prepare for our evaluation at the National Training Center at Fort Irwin, California in 2019,” Bulwinkle said.

As the vehicles were being loaded on the railcars, passers-by would wave or honk their vehicle horns to show support. Many stopped to ask where the equipment was heading.

“Things have been going very well with our Soldiers working with the contractors at the railhead,” said 1st X�� z��Z�&��� z�(���;� ��� ������������������'��_�� �������������#�����Company, 4-118th CAB. “There is a tremendous amount of experience be-tween our NCOs and with the contrac-

tors. They are guiding our Soldiers on what to do and making things happen.”

There were roughly 30 Soldiers working to drive and secure the ve-hicles on the railcars, which included M1 Abrams, M2 Bradleys, along with heavy trucks. According to Bowens, the most challenging part was driving the larger track vehicles onto the rail-cars.

“Being out in the heat all day while we load these vehicles is actually good preparation for us to be in the summer Texas heat,” said Bowens. “Morale for our troops is very good. We have a top notch group of NCOs who enjoy look-ing out for the Soldiers and making them feel a part of the Family.”

Once the last vehicle is loaded, the rail cars will depart for Fort Bliss and are expected to be on station when the Soldiers arrive to begin the month-long XCTC in early August.

Soldiers from the South Carolina Army National Guard’s 4-118th Combined Arms Battalion, 218th Maneuver Enhancement Brigade, rail load Humvees, armored infan-try vehicles and other equipment, almost 200 wheeled and tracked vehicles in all, in preparation for their annual training exercise at Fort Bliss, Texas in August.
