WASHINGTON – A year-longstudy commissioned by severalarea counties, including PrinceWilliam, Fairfax, Arlington andCharles County, Md., has deter-mined there is a demand for awater taxi service to ferry com-muters across the Potomac Riverand its tributaries. This comes as aresult of the area’s robust popula-tion and the market of jobs locatedalong the water, according to thestudy.

Tim Payne, a principal at thefirm handling the study, hascombed over results that showa sustainable market to supporta daily water taxi service to vari-ous places in the region, includ-

ing Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling(JBAB). To gauge a better under-standing of this concept, guestsfrom various agencies and munic-ipalities from around the region,including JBAB Commander NavyCapt. Anthony T. Calandra, wereinvited to take a tour aboard a wa-ter taxi Oct. 28. The tour included avisit to the Pentagon’s marina anddocking area before returning toJBAB.

“In Alexandria alone, we foundthere are a little more than 1,800residents who currently work ateither the St. Elizabeth’s U.S. CoastGuard Headquarters, or at a build-ing on JBAB,” Payne said duringthe tour. “A service like this couldcut their commute and result inhaving fewer cars on the road dur-ing the morning or evening rushhour.”

While it must be decidedwhether a service like this shouldbe operated by a public entity orthrough a public-private partner-ship, Payne said short connec-tions among Alexandria, ReaganNational Airport, National Harbor,the Woodrow Wilson Bridge andWashington are certainly worthpursuing.

The Potomac Riverboat Com-pany, which hosted the tour, cur-rently operates a fleet of passengerboats out of Alexandria, Va. Whileproviding service to National Har-bor, Md., boats routinely dock justtwo blocks away from NationalsPark during baseball season.

WASHINGTON – Volunteersfrom Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling(JBAB) and other area bases joinedthe civic volunteer group City YearWashington on Oct. 25 to kick-off Madeline Leckie ElementarySchool’s reading program “What’sOn Your Shelf?” Their task was tobuild 200 individual bookshelvesand then help each student custom-ize his or her bookshelf to be takenhome at the end of the day withpaint, brushes, and stencils.

Heavy lifting on the volunteerside was carried out by City YearWashington, D.C. City Year, anAmeriCorps program, is a nationalservice organization which unitesyoung adults, ages 17 to 24, from di-verse racial, cultural and socio-eco-nomic backgrounds for a demand-ing year of full-time communityservice, leadership development,and civic engagement. City Year D.C.

leaders Molly Vetter and Matt Zittledirected their team of sixteen and anequal number of JBAB volunteerswho were more than excited to helpkids build and paint bookshelves ona cold day in October.

“That’s what working City Year isall about,” Vetter said. “For City, youvolunteer a year of service to the or-ganization. You can come right outof high school or college and say ‘Iwant to give a year of service giv-ing back to the community.’ It’s anadmirable thing. I’ve been able towatch people give a year and growand I’ve grown myself.”

Before any students emergedfrom the school to the blacktop areawhere they would spend part of theirmorning painting their own book-shelves, Zittle accurately predictedsome big smiles and excitement tocome.

“Today will be a very pleasantsurprise for a lot of kids at the school.I think they were under the impres-sion that they were just going to bebuilding stuff,” Zittle said. “They

didn’t realize that they would be ableto take these bookshelves home.”

The day started early with onegroup of JBAB volunteers assem-bling small bookshelves, 200 to beexact. The shelves are the centerpiece of a campaign that Leckie El-ementary School Principal AtashaJames titled in the form of a ques-tion, “What’s On Your Shelf?”

Initially Capital One’s philan-thropic group The Heart of AmericaFoundation READesign was seekinga partner in Washington’s Ward 8.James spoke with them on behalf ofLeckie Elementary and said she alsosought a partnership that would beproductive and meaningful.

“I told them that I want my heartand soul to be poured into reading,because without that our kids areon a rocky foundation,” James said.“And if the students walk away withnothing else from elementary schoolit should be a real love for reading.”

James added that she grew up

WASHINGTON (AFNS) -- TheAir Force’s senior enlisted Airmantestified in front of the NationalCommission on the Structure ofthe Air Force Oct. 25 in Arlington,Va., giving his perspective of thetotal force and the challenges tobuilding the best balance for thefuture.

Chief Master Sgt. of the AirForce James A. Cody shared hisview on how the Air Force hasperformed as a total force duringthe past two decades of war, andaddressed deployments for active-duty members, Reserve and AirNational Guard.

During the testimony, Codysaid the effective integration andcohesion of the three componentsover the last 13 years at war hasstrengthened the relationship ofthe total force.

“We’ve been extremely success-ful,” Cody said.

A topic heavily discussed andemphasized during the testimonywas the concern about future de-ployment operations tempo forthe Air Force. Cody said Airmenhave been able to project air pow-er around the world with success,especially during operations in Af-ghanistan and Iraq. He also notedthere is concern about how muchlonger Airmen can be asked to de-ploy as often as they do without itnegatively affecting Airmen andtheir families.

Currently, active-duty Airmenhave a dwell rate of 1:2, and re-serve components are chargedwith deploying at a 1:5 rate. Whata 1:2 dwell rate means is for everyone month deployed, an Airman isat home station for two months,and for reserve components, forevery onemonth deployed, they’renot deployed for five months.

“Performance has indicatedthat we are able to do what ournation asks us to do around theworld, when they need us to do it,”Cody said. “But that doesn’t meanwe can rely on the current con-struct going into the future.”

During recent years, the AirForce has consistently reduced itsactive-duty force. Through thisreduction, Cody is proud of thefact Airmen are accomplishing themissions asked of them.

“The good news is our Airmendo get it done every day,” he said.

Appointed by the Fiscal Year2013 National Defense Authori-zation Act, the commission is re-viewing the Air Force’s structureto determine if and how it shouldchange to meet future missionsand funding challenges. The com-mission’s report and recommen-dations are due to the president byFeb. 1, 2014.

an avid reader and wants to impartsome of that love on her studentsand community. The Heart ofAmerica told her that it would dowhatever it could to help. To date,the organizationhas donatednearly2,000 books to the school’s library,making Leckie’s holdings one of thelargest library collections among el-ementary schools nationwide.

In addition to library books,Heart of America donated funds forthe materials necessary for the stu-dents’ personal bookshelves: woodboards cut to size, nails, paint, paintbrushes, and more. But even withthe materials, Leckie still neededone more ingredient, volunteers tomake it all happen. What happenednext is a testament to the impor-tance of solid community relations.

Dan Dunham, school liaisonofficer for JBAB and Naval DistrictWashington, has maintained andstrengthened the positive rela-tionship the base has with LeckieElementary. The subject of thispotential project came up early inthe summer after James heard thatCapital One wanted to partner withLeckie.

“She started to plant the seedthat we’re going to need volunteersand I said ‘When you have a need

you give me a call and we’ll moveit though our chain of command tosee if we can get some people in-volved,’” Dunham said.

Through JBAB’s solicitation forvolunteers on base and throughoutreach to other National CapitalArea bases and Department of De-fense (DOD) agencies to include theMarine Barracks Washington andFort George G. Meade, JBAB man-aged to pull together more thanfifteen volunteers to include Sail-ors, Airmen, a Marine, and severalcivilians.

“I think it’s a great turnout,”Dunham said. “Believe it or not wehad the exact number thatweneed-ed. If we hadmore peoplewemighthave had people standing around.”

The carpentry crew comprisedof Dunham, JBAB CommanderNavy Capt. Anthony T. Calandra, aMarine and two Airmen assembledthe bookshelves so efficiently thatthey completed the assembly por-tion far ahead of schedule. Thatmeant that as each grade made itsway outside to the blacktop, eachstudent had an assembled book-shelf to call his or her own, ready tobe decorated according to his or herown creativity and vision.

The remaining volunteers wereassigned to one of five paintingstations where they engaged withstudents, asked questions aboutwhat sort of things the students like

from sports teams to characters tohobbies, and then helped developplans on how to incorporate thosesubjects and themes into the stylingand design of their bookshelf.

It was through those initial dis-cussions that the students and vol-unteers warmed up to one another.Dunhamsaid that the studentswiththeir new bookshelves were not theonly oneswho got something out ofthe day; the volunteers came awaywith something, too.

“I think the biggest thing thatthey’re getting is that instant grati-fication of helping somebody outand getting a reward for that,” Dun-ham said. “Kids are saying ‘thankyou.’ I heard one student saying ‘I’dlike to have that uniform,’ and thenthe Marine said, ‘Well this is thekind of uniform you have to earn.You can’t just buy this off the shelf.’And the kidwas really excited aboutthat.”

For Marine Sgt. Ryan Stitzel, ofthe Marine Barracks Washington,D.C., who has volunteered in a vari-ety of capacities from soup kitchensto tutoring and mentoring middleand high school age kids, this expe-rience was one of the most fun he’shad. He encouraged others whohave not volunteered in the D.C.community to seize the opportuni-ties that arise and to get to know thecommunities around them.

“Considering this is an inner-

city area, a lot of people automati-cally think that a lot of these kidsare troublemakers and have a reallyrough home life, but that’s not thecase at all,” Stitzel said. “A lot ofthem obviously come from reallygood backgrounds andupbringingsbecause youdidn’t have to tell themhow to act, they just did it.”

When asked what he got out ofthe event, Airman 1st Class Shaqui-leGarcias-Phillips, of the U.S. AirForce Honor Guard, responded ex-citedly, “Joy! Joy! A lot of joy!”

Garcias-Phillips also saw theday as an opportunity to pay for-ward the advice he received frommilitary members that came to hisschoolwhenhewas the age of theseLeckie Elementary students.

“Back then when I was in schoolI had military people come to myschool like this, and they told us ifwe wanted to be in the military wehad to stay out of trouble,” Garcias-Phillips said. “And their advice ac-tually helped me out because hereI am in the military and U.S. AirForce Honor Guard. So I just hopethatwhat I told these kids todaywillhelp them out, too.”

Navy Airmen Miles Franks, acasket bearer and armorer with theU.S. Navy Ceremonial Guard, saidhe had nothing but great feelings atthe end of the day.

“It was fun putting a smile ontheir faces and changing their per-

spective on arts and crafts. A lot ofkids came out here and they didn’thave any motivation and said ‘Idon’t know what to do,’” Frankssaid. “But if you just give themsome ideas and interact with themit just brightens themup. I saw a lotof frowns turn into smiles. For all ofus, it made us feel great.”

For Franks this was only the be-ginning of what he hopes will befuture volunteering opportunitiesin theWard 8 community.

“I was talking to the staff to seeif there are more programs like thisbecause it would be very good forour command to show these kidsthat our command and the com-munity supports and enjoys themand that there’s a big life ahead ofthem,” Franks added. “I’d also liketo have these kids come see theU.S. Navy Ceremonial Guard per-form and see what the military of-fers them.”

Dunham, speaking of juniorservice members such as Franksand Garcias-Phillips, said, “We’vegot some service members who arefresh out of boot camp and they’relearning that it’s not just aboutthe drill all the time. This is partof the mission too: giving back tothe community and being a goodneighbor.”

WASHINGTON - The U.S. Food andDrug Administration (FDA) is advisingconsumers to stop using OxyElite Pro,a dietary supplement, because of sus-pected links to acute hepatitis.

The FDA, along with the Centers forDisease Control and Prevention andthe Hawaii Department of Health areinvestigating reports of acute non-vi-ral hepatitis in Hawaii where 29 casesare linked to a dietary supplement.The FDA urges consumers to stop us-ing the product while the investigationcontinues. Distributed by USPlabs LLCin Dallas, Texas, the product is soldnationwide in retail stores and on theinternet. The product has been pulledfrom Joint Base Andrews (JBA) andJoint Base Anacostia-Bolling (JBAB).

“We are urging Airmen to stop us-ing the product until the investigationconcludes and results are confirmed,”said Col. John Oh, chief of Health Pro-motion, Air Force Medical SupportAgency, Air Force Surgeon General.

There have been a total of 29 casesof acute non-viral hepatitis with anunknown cause reported in Hawaii.Eleven of the 29 patients have beenhospitalized with acute hepatitis, twohave received liver transplants andone person has died. The CDC is alsoinvestigating other cases of liver injurynation-wide that could be related.

Symptoms of hepatitis include fe-ver, fatigue, loss of appetite, nausea,vomiting, abdominal pain, dark urine,clay or gray-colored bowel move-ments, joint pain, yellow eyes, andjaundice

“Airmen who are experiencing

these symptoms should contact theirhealth care provider immediately,” Ohsaid.

Many Airmen reportedly use dietarysupplements for weight loss or musclebuilding. In 2011, one-third of Airmen re-ported using legal bodybuilding supple-ments in the past year, including 15 per-cent in the last month, according to Oh.

“We encourage Airmen to get edu-cated on dietary supplement safetythrough Operation Supplement Safe-ty, the Department of Defense dietarysupplement education and safety cam-paign,” Oh said.

WASHINGTON – Air Force Chaplain(Capt.) Kraig Smith is quite content withhis recent assignment to Joint Base Ana-costia-Bolling (JBAB). A native of south-ern Maryland, he’s already familiar withthe area and is excited to join a growingProtestant community on base.

Smith joined the Air Force in 2006 afterpreviously serving as a youth minister innearby Lexington Park, Md. He’s deployedtwice in his career – both times to Qatarwhere he helped counsel foreign workersand many of the natives there. He has alsospent time on a missile base in Wyomingand at Tinker Air Force Base in OklahomaCity, Okla.

In addition to leading Protestant ser-vices at JBAB, he hopes to start an Air-men’s Ministry Center at Blanchard Bar-racks that will help focus attention onmarriage and provide some outreachfor single service members. He has alsosigned on as a liaison to the Defense In-telligence Agency (DIA) and is eager toget involved with the chapel’s youth pro-grams.

“I like to think of myself as a teacher

by trade. It’s tremendously rewarding tohelp people understand who they are andwhere they stand in life,” Smith said. “I’vealways been interested and attracted to

the Air Force, so this makes all the sensein the world for me. It was a calling fromGod to join the service.”

According to Smith, you learn a lot

working alongside other services andagencies. That was certainly the case forhim in Oklahoma City earlier this year, asTinker Air Force Base was a focal point inaid for residents whose homes were deci-mated by an outbreak of tornadoes. Smithmade himself available around the clockonce Tinker’s Emergency Family Assis-tance Center (EFAC) was stood up.

As a chaplain, he said the biggest chal-lenge is talking to people who outright re-fuse help. Though, when people do openthemselves up, great things can happen.During his career, Smith has seen Airmenmore willing to reach out to their col-leagues and that he says speaks volumes– particularly when it comes to suicideawareness and understanding the symp-toms of depression.

As for his “coming home party” toJBAB, it was a pleasant surprise and onefor which his family is grateful. He lives onbase with his wife, Jennifer, and their twodaughters, Kayla and Sierra.

“My goal is to stay in the Air Force thestandard 20 years. Personally, I wouldrather wear out than rust out,” Smith said.“I believe the best leadership is one thatbuilds people up. I hope to help peoplebecome what they want to be.”

Custom-ers are asked to check their local commis-sary for details on dates and times for thefollowing promotions:

• The Third Annual “Get All the Fixin’s– Save Big on Your Bird. This world-widepromotion revolves around a 16-page rec-ipe booklet with coupons valued at more

than $43. The coupons provide commissaryshoppers with greater than normal savingsor free turkeys when purchasing their holi-day meal essentials. Terms and conditionsare on the coupons.

“Your commissary offers all the itemsyou need for your holiday meals,” Chandlersaid. “Be sure to stock up now.”

Your commissary offers moresavings for the holidays

about for many years – usually culminatingin a lengthy debate over cost and whetherenough commuters would use the serviceand justify its purpose.

Scott Davies, operations developmentmanager for the U.S. Department of Trans-portation (DOT), said the idea is now morepalatable due to increased traffic conges-tion on not only the roads, but on railways,as well.

He said a marine highway program was

recently designated that includes the Po-tomac, Anacostia and Occoquan rivers. Thiscould make commercially viable waterwayroutes eligible for federal funding, Daviessaid.

“We still have a lot to figure out in termsof cost and land use, but having a maritimeservice is definitely a smart move,” Daviessaid. “We already have service to some partsand there’s enough to start a small network.It would be a huge benefit to the region.”

Since taking command of JBAB, Calandrahas been a proponent of having some typeof water service to the base. If the projectwere to move forward, he promised contin-ued support on his end.

AMERICAN FORCES PRESS SERVICE

WASHINGTON - Service members whodeploy or are otherwise separated fromtheir families due to mission needs nowhave an online resource allowing them tohone their parenting skills as they recon-nect with their children.

Pam Murphy, the Defense Depart-ment’s lead psychologist for the website,said the launch of http://www.militarypar-enting.org offers unprecedented, compre-hensive and free computer-based trainingfrom a service member’s perspective onparenting and building strong relation-ships with their children.

A clinical psychologist with more than20 years of experience in community andprivate practice, Murphy said the Inte-grated Mental Health Strategy Program isa collaborative initiative between the Vet-erans Affairs Department and DOD.

“We initially did an environmental scanof everything within the DOD as well ascommercially available, and one of theareas that seemed to be at a deficit was acomprehensive parenting program thatlooks at the basics,” Murphy said.

She noted that while a plethora of par-enting information exists online, it was dif-ficult to identify a free, private “military-centric” program.

“This is one of the first of its kind,”Murphy said. The interactive site, she ex-plained, develops and reinforces parentingskills to help families reconnect throughin-depth technology solutions that appealto younger parents.

“Many of the parents in the service

member population are generally young-er,” she said. “Prominent age groups oftheir children are typically 5 or below.”

Murphy added that the site goes beyondthe job and hits home in terms of affectingfamily relationships, building resilienceand helping service members to be happy

with their lives within the military.She also noted that service members’

personalized accounts interwoven intothe site make the situations and solutionsrelatable.

“We included videos of real service per-sonnel … to talk about their real-life expe-

riences with parenting, reintegrating andmaking those everyday decisions,” Murphysaid.

The website consolidates and simplifiesinformation that was previously accessibleacross multiple resources, said Air ForceSenior Airman Matthew Siegele, a protocolspecialist, and his wife, Air Force Staff Sgt.Sabrina Siegele, non-commissioned officerin charge of knowledge operations, both ofwhom work at Joint Base Lewis-McChord,Wash.

“We’ve been through so many parent-ing classes, counseling and therapy, and alot of the resources and advice is mirroredon this site,” Sabrina said. “This websiteis excellent -- it’s a one-stop shop insteadof jumping around to multiple appoint-ments.”

During family separations, Murphysaid, applications such as Skype and Face-time can help in keeping families connect-ed, but the military parenting website pro-vides ideas for technology-based activitiesthat can help in reuniting parents and chil-dren after a deployment. “A lot of times,kids don’t know what to talk about withtheir parents when they are on the phoneor on the computer with them,” she said.

Murphy said the website can help mili-tary parents to reconnect with their chil-dren.

“Parents can benefit from this site, andI believe they want their kids to grow upto be happy, healthy, fully functioningadults,” she said. “Here, they’ll find strate-gies and ideas to [get] even better in termsof helping kids to grow, mature and blos-som.”
