While the Cadet Chapel will always be
the most definitive feature of the Academy
skyline, the school’s athletic facilities take
center stage this week.
Some 9,000 athletes from around the
country are here Thursday through Sunday
for the 2005 State Games of America, a
national multi-sport event, held biennially,
for all ages and skill levels.
Medal winners from 49 State Games

Nine of the event’s 24 Olympic and Pan
American sports take place at Academy
venues. The rest are divided among Fort
Carson, the Phil Long Expo Center,
Cheyenne Mountain Resort plus other sites

and Pueblo.
“Our facilities are known nationwide
and people want to use them,” Assistant
Athletic Director for Events Management Joe
Novak emphasized. “A big selling point for
organizations is to come here. The primary
reason we do this is to further community
relations and give us exposure to potential
future cadets. They see what we have to
offer here.”
Visiting athletes will perform at the
Academy Archery Range for archery (3-D),
the north baseball field for archery (target),
the outdoor sport turf field for field hockey,
the Cadet West Gym for gymnastics, the
Cadet Center Gym for martial arts, the
athletic fields for soccer, the Cadet Tennis
Courts, the outdoor track stadium for track
& field and the Cadet East Gym for
wrestling.
SGA events are today, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.,
Saturday, 8 a.m. to 9 p.m., and Sunday, 8
a.m. to 7 p.m. Admission is charged to all
Academy events except archery (3-D) and
tennis.
Academy visitors are asked to enter
throught the North Gate. While on the
Academy they must have a driver’s license,
vehicle registration and vehicle insurance.
All persons, and their personal belongings,
entering the academy are subject to a search
if necessary.

New Vice Superintendent rolls up his sleeves
By Wayne Amman
Academy Spirit Staff
Spirit: How do you view patriotism
in our country given current world
events?
General Halter: When I came here
in ’73 we could not go downtown by
ourselves, in uniform or out, because
your haircut made you stick out.
I remember we were different in the
eyes of people who didn’t know us. They
thought less of us because of what we
were doing. We went to certain universities for a football game and were told
not to go anywhere alone, stick together.
Even though Vietnam had just finished,
there was still a large anti-war movement.
It’s a whole different ballgame now.
Being a military member is held in such
high esteem. The entire country knows
what we’re asking people to do. Although
there are differing opinions about how
and what were involved in, it’s great to
know no one is questioning the integrity,
the selflessness and character of the
American military. It’s a wonderful thing
to have people behind you. It makes a
big difference.
Brig. Gen. Irving L. “Irv” Halter
recently arrived to assume the Academy’s
new Vice Superintendent position. He
joins the Academy team following
concurrent tours as the Deputy Director
for National Systems Operations, the
Joint Staff, and Deputy Director for
Military
Support,
National
Reconnaissance Office, Wash., D.C.
The general is a command fighter
pilot with more than 3,100 flight hours
who’s served as an operational
commander at the squadron, group and
wing levels. General Halter is a veteran
of Operations Desert Storm, Provide
Comfort and Enduring Freedom.
The southern New Jersey native
and ’77 Academy graduate shared his
views July 13 with the Academy Spirit.
Spirit: How does it feel to return to
your alma mater?
General Halter: It’s not like the
good old days, even though there are a
lot of similarities. I was anxious to see
how much has changed. Graduating 28
years ago and 32 years after basic
training, you get chills.
You watch what the young men and
women are going through and you go,
whew, I remember that. The concentration on basic training and the comprehensiveness of the training stand out.
It’s much more deliberate and
thought through now. I really like that.
If anyone thinks the training has gotten
easier they need to watch what’s going
on. Talking to the basics and watching
the cadre operate I see total professionals. Graduates need to remember
it’s just as tough and in some ways
tougher because these kids come down
a lot further than we had to. I left three
TV channels at home on only one TV. I
didn’t have my own phone, no computer,
most of us didn’t have cars, etc. We take
away a lot more things when they first
start here, so in many ways it’s a bigger
adjustment.
I’m really taken by the effort of the
staff here. They’ve been through a lot of
challenges but are committed to doing
this right. I’m also impressed by the
graduate community. Even a lot of nongraduates have written wishing us well
and to say how much they care about our
Academy. People may not always agree
with what we’re doing here but they sure
have an interest. It’s pretty amazing.
Brig. Gen. Irving “Irv” Halter, Academy Vice Superintendent (Photos by Danny
Meyer)
Spirit: What do you bring to the
table from your Air Force operational
background?
General Halter: When I arrived
here right after Viet Nam we had a lot
of folks who had been in the war as
pilots, navigators or support personnel.
They were my great motivators. They
would stop the English class and talk to
me about an operational mission over the
north. I cared about academics but in the
daily grind of what happens here those
guys kept my interest, they made a difference.
I’m very fortunate the Air Force
gave me opportunities to command at
several levels. I’ve been to war, flew
combat sorties, I know what that’s about.
I can look at these kids and say here’s
how the training you’re getting now is
preparing you for the things to come, so
hang in there, it’s worth it. When I’m tired
I may wonder why am I still doing this?
Fact is, not I, my wife or family regret
a moment of this. If I could do it all over
again, make 10-times the money, I
wouldn’t give it up for the world. This
is a great way to make a living. Flying
upside down is cool. Space operations
is very cool.
Our Air Force is doing neat, interesting things. Cadets will find a lot of
fun, even though life at the Academy
may not always be fun. All of us are
called upon to remind others, especially
on tough days, what it is they’re doing.
What I’ve done doesn’t make me special,
but it allows me to relate to folks, tell
them I know what it’s like to be in
Afghanistan. Here’s why it’s important
you do the particular thing you’re doing.
Spirit: How do you perceive
America’s perception of the Academy?
General Halter: This year we’ve
had well over 9,000 qualified folks apply
for admission, a huge crop. The standards
have not changed. We’re still getting the
kind of people we want here. I see
nothing but good there. You talk to families and there’s intense pride.
I know this. My father passed away
last December. When we used to walk
into an airport within 30 minutes there
weren’t 50 people who didn’t know I
went to the Air Force Academy. Even
when I became a general, that’s the first
thing he told them. To go to a service
academy, especially for middle America,
is still a big deal. It’s not because the great
education is free or the character development is great but because we develop
the whole person. A lot of colleges claim
to do that and a lot try, but very few can
show they do that. We can.
The trials we’ve been through the last
two-three years have focused us even
more to take care of the whole person,
develop leaders of character. There’s
incredible cooperation here, especially
at the senior level. Everyone is on board.
They all get it. They know why we’re
here. They’re absolutely dedicated to
making sure we do it right.

Academy Spirit
July 29, 2005
for a new superintendent is underway are
you ready to carry on what Gen. Rosa
established?
General Halter: The reason the vice
superintendent position was created at
this rank was to ensure the momentum
we started the last couple years continued,
through the transition of personalities and
because the Superintendent is a university president. A lot of his time is spent
away from the Academy. It’s hard to be
the boss and keep that momentum going,
even if you’re a commandant or dean, if
you’re not there. The acting Secretary of
the Air Force, Michael Dominguez, told
me to keep the continuity going.
If there’s a gap in the transition
process the good news is I’m here. I’m
learning everything I can because the
place has changed a lot. All the folks here
are dedicated to developing cadets into
leaders of character. My job is to be the
home team that’s watching what’s going
on, making sure we don’t miss anything
along the way. I’m glad I’m here with
General Rosa, who I’ve known for quite
a while. He’s a great officer who’s done
great work here and is teaching me the
ropes(along) with generals Weida and
Born and Dr. Mueh.
I purposely got here two days before
the new class arrived, less than three
weeks after I was told to be here. I wanted
to watch how all this went so I could be
part of it. General Weida and I have been
leading the 3- and 5-mile walks. With
everything that goes on this is an opportunity for me to keep the ball rolling.
Spirit: What can the Academy expect
from the new vice superintendent?
General Halter: I’ve been a boss
before. I haven’t been a vice boss before.
That takes a little different talent. You still
need to be a leader, but lead quietly,
understand your boss’s vector and be
the guy who translates that. You make
sure the boss gets all he needs but no
more than he needs because he’s a busy
guy. He can’t make every decision here
and he doesn’t want to. I’m going to
figure out what can I do to make him
more effective in his job.
I told the senior staff recently as I get
older I’m not going to teach cadets
physics, that’s a bad idea. I’m not the civil
engineer who makes sure the plumbing
works, the person ensuring military
family housing is OK, the person making
sure someone gets paid or the AOC (Air
Off icer Commanding) staying up
overnight with a sick cadet or a family
to resolve a problem. My job is to make
the jobs of everyone who takes care of
this place easier.
When people see me at orientations
and stuff I want them to be honest with
me. Tell me what their issues are. What’s
good about your job and what can be
better? What resources do you need? I
cannot promise anyone I can change
anything. I can promise, if they convince
me of their cause, I’ll get back to the boss
and maybe give him options to address
issues. The bottom line mission here is
as important as the day-to-day mission
in Iraq, Afghanistan, or anywhere else
in the operational Air Force. In some
ways it may be the most important.
We’re building the future of the Air
Force and that’s a sacred trust. There’s
no better place to do it than the Academy.
Everyone here is part of that mission. If
you’re having a bad day go to one of the
overlooks or the terrazzo, if you’re
allowed to, watch what’s going on and
remind yourself why you’re here. That
will keep you going. It keeps me going.
“To go to a service academy, is still
a big deal... because we develop the
whole person.”

to adhere to all the security and safety requirements
because they make good, common sense,” Mr. Novak
said.
An event of this magnitude takes no less than a
total team effort to pull it off successfully. The Academy
works administratively in concert with Colorado’s
Rocky Mountain State Games and the Colorado Springs
Sports Corporation.
Day-to-day operations are handled locally.
“A lot of planning and coordination goes into this
to make sure everything is in place and ready to go,”
Mr. Novak explained. “Our events management staff
works diligently with the J & J Maintenance folks
who help set up the facilities and different venue sites.
We coordinate with security forces about security
issues, traffic and other concerns they may have. The
base wing is instrumental in figuring out logistics, such
as signage, ensuring roadways are clear and more.”
The road was cleared in 1978 for the State Games
concept in New York with the Empire State Games.
In 2004 more than 500,000 athletes competed in State
Games nationwide. The State Games of America was
previously held in St. Louis, Mo., in 1999 and 2001
and in Hartford, Conn., in 2003.
To qualify for this State Games of America, athletes
must have won a gold, silver or bronze medal in their
local State Games in 2003 or 2004 or be Colorado residents for at least 30 days prior to the competition.
College students, U. S. military personnel and their families stationed in Colorado may also participate.
“Plan on getting here early,” Mr. Novak advised
Academy visitors. “Remember, you’re at altitude so
stay hydrated and use sunscreen.”

Merging fun with useful lessons
By the Academy Spirit staff
The Academy’s first Youth Fire Safety Camp
held July 18 at Pine Valley’s Fire Station 1 was
anything but boring for the youngsters who
participated.
A child attending the Youth Fire Safety Camp is
competing in the bucket brigade. The children
filled smaller pails with water from a large horse
trough and ran to fill the smaller containers to
see whose team could fill it the fastest. Some
got more water on themselves than in the pails.
(Courtesy Photo)
It wasn’t routine kids’ stuff; instruction
merged fun with useful lessons.
The morning portion was fire safety education like fire extinguisher training, exit drills
in the home, having a meeting place outside,
checking smoke alarms and crawling low in
smoke.
The afternoon was the mini fire safety
muster with the hose roll, fire stream competition and the bucket brigade.
Even Smokey Bear and Sparky showed.
Children received instruction in a variety
of important topics including recognizing
common household fire hazards and how to
correct them, proper and safe use of f ire
extinguishers, an explanation and demonstration of firefighter protective clothing and
recognizing and reporting emergencies.
The fun side of the day was highlighted
by the bucket brigade, hose rolling competition and hitting a target with a water stream
from a fire hose.
“It is important that we reinforce these
fundamental safety practices and make them
a part of our children’s daily routine” said
Assistant Fire chief Dennis Chaltry.

Boy Scouts battle dwarf mistletoe in Academy forest
By Eddie Kovsky
Academy Spirit staff
A local boy scout troop recently performed a community service for the Academy.
Eagle Scout Ben Blieber brought approximately 20 boy
scouts to the base Saturday to remove dwarf mistletoe
from three acres of forest near the community center.
“I have been in Boy Scouts for about seven years,” said
Blieber. “To obtain Boy Scouts highest rank of Eagle
Scout, you have to do an Eagle Service Project. Since the
Academy sponsors my troop, I wanted to provide a service
for them.”
It could save the lives of trees.
“Dwarf mistletoe is a parasitic plant that grows on
various tree species,” said Diane Strohm, natural resources
planner. “It weakens and sometimes kills trees by extracting
food and nutrients. Its seeds are expelled at up to 60 mph,
infecting other trees and limbs, sometimes up to 60 feet away.
Mistletoe often stresses trees, predisposing them to attack
by bark beetles. It is a serious problem across portions of
the Academy in Ponderosa Pine and Douglas Fir.”
For this project, the scouts worked in small groups on
different parts of the forest. Before the scouts arrived, the
boundary of the area they were working in was marked
off, and the trees that needed to be cut down were flagged.
“In addition to pruning the trees with mistletoe on them,
we also cut down the trees flagged in red and cut down
any dead branches on mistletoe trees,” said Blieber. “The
tools that we used to accomplish this project include pole
saws, pruning saws, hand saws, bow saws, loppers, and pole
loppers.”
While the scouts learned to clear the mistletoe, safety
was also in mind.
“We had a first aid kit on site, and everyone was
required to wear closed toed shoes, leather gloves and
safety goggles,” said Blieber.”
“Pruning the trees leaves the forest much healthier,”
said Ms. Strohm. “It also entailed cutting some trees that
are competing with others in dense pockets.”
The scouts have done several annual Eagle Scout
projects on the Academy, including trail work, erosion
projects, and planting.
Many cadets attending the Academy are past Eagle
Scouts.
New Housing Allowance Guidelines Won’t Result in Pay Cut
By Army Sgt. Sara Wood
American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON - Defense officials
are eliminating the “geographic rate protection” clause that ensures servicemembers
moving to a new area receive the same
housing allowance as those already there.
Geographic rate protection is expiring
in January because Basic Allowance for
Housing rates have reached a level where
servicemembers no longer have to pay outof-pocket expenses for housing, said Air
Force Col. Virginia Penrod, DoD director
of military compensation.
Any rate cut from year to year will not
negatively affect servicemembers who are
remaining in the area where they already
receive BAH, she noted.
Penrod stressed that the BAH rate is set
at the average housing cost for the area. Rates
are further set based on military rank, with
each pay-grade level having a set acceptable standard of housing. Servicemembers
may still have to pay some out-of-pocket
expenses if they choose to live above that
level. Conversely, if servicemembers choose
to live below the average level, they will still
receive the same BAH rate.
Troops still have “individual rate protection” as long as they stay within the same
geographic area. If average housing costs
in a given geographic area go down, troops
already living in that area continue to receive
the higher amount. However, troops moving
into that area receive the lower amount.
Geographic rate protection was a temporary
protection put into effect to prevent troops
of the same pay grade living in the same area
from getting different amounts of housing
allowance.
Rate protection was instituted in 2000
to ensure troops' BAH rates were the same
among like-pay grade individuals living in
the same area while troops were still paying
part of their own housing expenses, Penrod
explained. Now that BAH rates are high
enough to cover servicemembers' entire
housing expenses, geographic rate protection isn't necessary, she said.
“It was a short-term program,” she
said. “We always had in our minds that we
would eliminate the protection once the
out-of-pocket (expenses) went to zero.”
Under the new BAH guidelines, a
servicemember moving to a new area will
receive the appropriate BAH rate for that
area, regardless of whether troops already
living there are receiving a higher rate, she
said.
This change makes financial sense,
Penrod said. “We're adjusting rates to where
they should be,” she said.
Each year, BAH rates are adjusted with
input from military housing offices in the
area, Penrod said. If it is determined the rate
needs to be increased, all servicemembers
living in that area will receive the increase.

Shuttle return to flight
includes local efforts
By Tech. Sgt. Jennifer Thibault
Air Force Space Command Public
Affairs
Air Force Print News
PETERSON AFB, Colo. —
Almost two weeks after its original
launch date, NASA’s Discovery Shuttle
rocketed into space July 26, but they
didn’t do it alone.
“NASA could not launch the space
shuttle without range and space surveillance support from Air Force Space
Command,” said Jeffrey Ashby, former
astronaut and liaison between the
command and the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration. “The dedication and attention to detail of AFSPC
members are absolutely necessary for
safe operation of the space shuttle.”
Support was provided by Airmen of
the 1st Space Control Squadron, 45th
Space Wing, 21st Space Wing, 14th
Air Force and Air Force Space
Command. Each unit is part of the
command’s combined efforts to meet
both launch and on-orbit space shuttle
requirements.
“We support NASA through our
space surveillance network,” said Lt.
Col. David Maloney, chief of the space
situation awareness branch. “Our
network consists of 31 radars and telescopes that track more than 13,000
man-made objects on a daily basis.”
This information comes into play
when NASA officials plan the shuttle’s
launch and orbit path.
“It’s important to know where all of
the objects are because we certainly
don’t want to launch the shuttle into the
oncoming path of an orbiting manmade space object that is sufficient
size to damage the shuttle,” Colonel
Maloney said.
Outside of the space situation
awareness support, the safety and
range/spacelift division at AFSPC headquarters also contributes to the shuttle
launch.
“After the last launch, NASA said
they needed better cameras,” said Maj.
Vince Cassara, chief of the division.
“During the past two years we have
worked on enhancements at the range
to include long-range cameras that can
track the shuttle after launch and
improved video playback capabilities.”
Major Cassara’s division also assists
with range money and equipment issues
and oversight for the day-to-day operations.

Academy Spirit staff
The space shuttle Discovery and its
crew of seven blasted off Tuesday
morning, leaving Florida’s Kennedy
Space Center at 8:39 MST en route to
the International Space Station.
The 12-day mission is the first
shuttle flight since the Columbia
disaster nearly two and a half years
ago, is aimed at servicing and resupplying the space station.
Commander Eileen Collins and
pilot James Kelly are among the crew
members.
The 48-year-old Collins graduated
from Colorado Springs’ Webster
University in 1989 and attended graduate school at the University of
Colorado in Boulder. She also was an
assistant professor in mathematics at
the U.S. Air Force Academy as well as
a T-41 instructor pilot. This is Collins’
fourth shuttle flight.
The 41-year-old Kelly holds an
astronautical engineering degree from
the Air Force Academy.

Cadets visit Peterson, check different flying options
By Tech. Sgt. Matt Gilreath
21st Space Wing Public Affairs
More than 1,400 basic cadets from
the Academy, the largest class since
1988, visited Peterson Air Force Base
July 19 and 20 to look at their flying
options upon graduation.
Some of the cadets may choose to
fly aircraft that travel several hundred
mph or a satellite that travels tens of
thousands mph.
Capt. Scott Bowshot, 94th Flying
Training Squadron soaring instructor
pilot was here to greet the cadets and
answer question about flying.
“This is the first opportunity we
get to recruit the cadets to become
fighter pilots or fly heavies,” Captain
Bowshot said. “We want to spark their
interest now and get them focused on
what they want to do when they graduate.”
The cadets’ focus turned to the F117 Nighthawk from Holloman AFB,
N.M.
Basic Cadet Bradley Carrell spent
his first two years as an enlisted servicemember
with
the
805th
Communications Squadron at Scott
AFB, Ill. performing communications
apprentice duties before pursuing his
dream of being an officer and a pilot.
“I figured if I was going to be an
officer, the Academy was the best place
to get the training and experience I
needed,” Basic Cadet Carrell said.
“I’ve never been this close to a
Stealth fighter before,” Carrell said.
“This is awesome. I get to talk to the
pilots and they get to share their flying
experiences with me and answer my
questions.”
With the focus on recruiting pilots,
some of the cadets said they had never
thought of the possibility of piloting a
satellite hundreds of miles out in space.
Master Sgt. Timothy Stumph, 21st
Operations Support Squadron, NCO in
charge of space control training, was
there to tell the cadets about satellite
operations.
“This year’s group of cadets was an
exceptionally bright group,” Sergeant
Stumph said. “They asked lots questions
about space, different orbits, satellite
operations and specifics about the Space
Command mission.
“I was really impressed with the
knowledge some of the cadets already
had about satellites. I have no doubt they
will be a great asset to us in the future,”
Sergeant Stumph said.
The cadets will complete Basic
Cadet Training over the next couple of
weeks before assuming the rank of
cadet 4th class and beginning classroom instruction at the Academy.
QDR will reflect tomorrow’s,not today’s,challenges
By Donna Miles
American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON (AFPN) — Military leaders will
resist any temptation to assume the force needed for
the future will be a cookie-cutter version of today’s
needs, Gen. Richard B. Myers said here July 25.
The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff was
talking about how the military will examine its forces,
resources and programs during the upcoming 2005
Quadrennial Defense Review.
The QDR, he told the group, needs to consider the
broad range of missions the U.S. military could be called
to support. These run the gamut from full-scale combat
operations to nontraditional missions ranging from
counterinsurgency missions to stability operations as
well as homeland defense.
“We want to make sure, when we get our forces
set here in the early part of the 21st century, that they
can deal with a wide variety of threats,” General Myers
said. “We cannot focus on just one area.” Similarly, he
said, planners cannot assume future operations will be
run like today’s.
“The way Afghanistan was fought was different than
the way Iraq was fought, and Iraq will be different than
whatever we will be called on to do next, whether it’s
humanitarian assistance or peacekeeping or whatever
it might be,” General Myers said. “We have to be
careful that we don’t fall victim to templates of what
we are currently doing now.”
How to create the best-structured, -trained and equipped force for these various missions will be the
QDR’s “essence,” the general said.

that there is too much conventional force structure in
some areas, the general said. The Army is working to
rebalance the skills within its active and reserve components, and to transform some “heavy” units into lighter,
more agile units.
The report, which examines emerging threats and
balances them against current capabilities, is instrumental in shaping budgets, strategy and force structure.
The most recent Quadrennial Defense Review,
conducted in 2001, occurred just before the U.S.
entered the war on terrorism later that year. Much of
that review’s emphasis was on transforming the military from its Cold War posture to a lighter, more
capable and deployable force better suited to 21stcentury threats.

Academy medics save life of Peterson NCO in Iraq
Deployed Airmen of 506th EMEDS
reflect on remarkable coincidence
By Eddie Kovsky
Academy Spirit staff
Staff Sgt. Jamie Dana, a dog handler
assigned to the 21st Security Forces
Squadron at Peterson Air Force Base, was
seriously injured a month into her sixmonth deployment to Iraq when an
improvised explosive device hit her
convoy during a patrol near Kirkuk
Regional Air Base.
Academy personnel deployed to the
506th Expeditionary Medical Squadron
helped save her life.
“Sergeant Dana was one of several
casualties from that explosion,” said
Col. Steven Chambers, 506th EMEDS
Hospital commander, Kirkuk Regional
Air Base. “She was the most seriously
injured, and her injuries were life threatening. When we got word of their imminent arrival, my whole group was
mobilized to come in to assist with the
casualties.”
There are currently 18 medical
personnel deployed to Kirkuk from the
Academy’s 10th Medical Group and 10th
Medical Operations Squadron. Along
with others from Travis AFB, Calif., and
Buckley AFB, Colo., they were the first
medics to treat Sergeant Dana.
She arrived with a very severe pelvic
fracture and was near death from hemorrhagic shock.
“Most of the Academy personnel
were involved with her care from one
standpoint or another,” said Col.
Chambers, who is also the Academy’s
10th MDOS commander. “It was known
by many of my staff that she was an Air
Force dog handler and some knew that
her home station was Peterson. But it was
a hectic day for all of us, so we did not
focus on that.”
“Normally I handle command and
control issues during trauma situations
like coordinating the arrival of injured
airmen and soldiers, recalling the medical
team, and coordinating emergency transportation on to more definitive care,”
said Capt. Angela Blackwell, squadron
administrator. “In Jamie’s case, I ended
up assisting in the treatment room by
stabilizing her head and neck, and talking
to her to keep her calm while the medical
providers were working to assess her
injuries.
“It never fails to surprise me how
brave the airmen and soldiers are when
they are brought to us. Jaime was no
different. She was in a lot of pain, but
she was very brave and very patient
while the doctors worked to assess the
extent of her injuries.”
Once Sergeant Dana had been stabilized, she was medically evacuated to the
Air Force Theater Hospital at Balad, and
then to the medical center at Landstuhl
Regional Medical Center, Germany.
“Sergeant Dana is now at Walter
Reed, where I understand she is
improving slowly,” said Colonel
Chambers.
Though saving Sgt. Dana’s life was
a remarkable coincidence, it was all just
part of the job for the Airmen of the

Base, Iraq. (Air Force Photo)

506th EMEDS.
“We make up a small forward placed
Expeditionary Medical Support
Hospital,” said Colonel Chambers. “Our
role is to have casualties brought into us,
get stabilized and transferred on to the
next higher echelon of care. We triage
patients from the most serious to the
least serious. We use what is called the
‘golden hour.’ If we can intervene within
an hour of the injury, we have more of
a chance of saving the service member’s
life.”
Some senior personnel have deployed
to Iraq before, and bring years of experience to the expeditionary base.
“The Academy team has jelled into
a top notch trauma and critical care
team,” said Col. Brian Peyton, who is
filling the sole vascular surgeon slot
from Buckley AFB, Colo. “The rapid
evacuation of patients to higher levels of
care thousands of miles away has no
counterpart in the U.S. conflict and is
brought into focus for us every time we
receive word that an injured American
is coming.”
For those deploying for the first
time, the reality of the conflict can be
jarring.
“Seeing patients first-hand has been
shocking, to be able to see what the
terrorists are capable of,” said Senior
Airman Amanda Frush, medical logistics. “You always hear about it, but this
is my first time witnessing it personally. I didn’t see anything like it on my
last deployment.”
As shocking as a war zone deployment can be, the experience is invaluable
to those Airmen who share it.
“This is my first deployment and I
wouldn’t have missed the opportunity for
anything,” said Captain Blackwell. “It
has been my first chance to see and do
what I’ve been training for all of my Air
Force career. It’s amazing how years of
training kick in and you automatically
do the right thing at the right time. There
is no such thing as an ‘average’ day
anymore; they all start to blend together.”
“The deployment experience is a
rollercoaster of emotions and events,”
said Senior Airman Amber Parris, emergency medical technician. “It is something that I don’t think a medic can really
be fully prepared for. The injuries that
we deal with here are so different from
what we see in the states. In the past
two months I have seen more hatred,
pain and suffering, love and compassion than ever before in my life.”
Even the ordinary days have an
element of the extraordinary for those
living and working in Kirkuk.
“As a medic there really isn’t a set
‘average’ work day,” said Airman Parris.
“We tend to see between 15-25 patients
in a 24-hour period, but that could range
from bug bites and the KRAB crud
(gastroenteritis), to gunshot wounds or
IED injuries. We see a variety of patients
as well: Iraqi Air Force, Iraqi Army,
Department of Defense contractors,
Army and Air Force personnel.”
“Unfortunately, traumas are not rare
enough to stand out as single significant
events,” said Captain Blackwell. “We
have many trauma cases and every
Airman and Soldier, man and woman,
American and Iraqi are treated with the
same level of urgency and respect in life
and death. We feel for and care about
all of them from the time they are brought
in through our doors until long after
they have moved on.”
“There is no telling what each day
will bring,” said Airman Parris.

March to
Jacks
Valley
Basic cadets focus on next trai
By Eddie Kovsky
Academy Spirit staff
Basic cadets began their final two weeks of training
July 22 morning with a 7.8 mile hike out to the training
complex in Jacks Valley.
The class of 2009 marched from the Terrazzo to Jacks
Valley’s tent city, which they will call home for the next
two weeks during the field portion of basic cadet training.
The nine basic cadet training squadrons, consisting
of almost 1,400 basic cadet trainees, along with their
cadet training cadre and Academy leaders, marched out
of the cadet area at 6:45 a.m., led by Academy
Superintendent Lt. Gen. John Rosa and Brig. Gen. John
Weida, commandant of cadets.

completing a leadership reaction course; and participating in weapons drills, physical fitness tests, inspections,
and other military training.
Of all the obstacle courses, Operation Warrior is the
only course that runs for the entirety of the day. The
course is designed to leave the basics feeling “lost in the
woods.”
“It’s more meat and potatoes,” said Master Sgt. Charles
Jetton, Academy military instructor. “Ops Warrior rolls
right in with Global Engagement and summer deployments.
What they learned here is the foundation of their military education. Foundations are important.”
Instead of returning to the dining tent for lunch and
dinner, basics spent the whole day on the course and
enjoyed authentic ‘meals-ready-to-eat’ out in the field.
On the Ops Warrior course, basics learn about entry
control points and perimeter defense. Cadre use simulated

“It’s nice to simulate wartime conditions,” said basic

AF experiments to return home with Discovery
By Larine Barr
Air Force Research Laboratory
Public Affairs
Air Force Print News
WRIGHT-PATTERSON AFB, Ohio
— After existing nearly four years on
the International Space Station, more than
800 Air Force experiments will finally
return home with the Space Shuttle
Discovery on Aug. 7.
The space shuttle launched July 26
from Cape Canaveral, Fla., on a 12-day
mission to test new flight safety procedures
and deliver supplies to the station.
The Materials on the International
Space Station Experiment were installed
by the Space Shuttle Discovery crew in
August 2001 for what was to be a one-year
science experiment to learn how different
materials react when exposed to the rigors
of space, said Michael Stropki. He is a
scientist with the Air Force Research
Laboratory’s materials and manufacturing
directorate here where the experiments
originated.
When the shuttle Columbia exploded
on re-entry Feb. 1, 2003, the experiments
were forced to wait for a return to Earth
aboard the recent Discovery mission.
“While the experiments were originally planned to spend only one year in
space, having existed four years there
may have eroded away the entire material
in a few of the specimens,” said Mr.
Stropki, who was the initial program
manager on the project in 2001.
“In those cases, it will not be possible
to know just how soon it took to reach
failure,” he said. “While at the same time,
for other more successful candidates, the
additional time in space will likely show
that those materials have a greater durability and are able to survive the space envi-
ronment for the longer periods needed
for these materials.”
The goal of the experiment is to
discover how materials are affected by
exposure in an effort to develop more
durable, reliable and affordable materials
and technologies for future space vehicles.
“This information is crucial to
providing the needed space materials for
the 21st century,” said Pat Valentino,
AFRL’s current program manager. “New,
affordable materials are the enablers for
advanced reusable launch systems and
advanced spacecraft systems, including
optics, sensors, electronics, power, coatings, structural materials and protection.”
While at home on the orbiting space
laboratory, the experiments have been
housed in four passive experiment carriers,
similar to suitcases, which NASA astronauts placed at strategic locations on the
outside of the ISS. Some of the specimens include optical materials and coatings, lightweight radiation shielding
materials, thermal control coatings (flight
paint), Kevlar and carbon foams, multilayer insulation materials, solar cell technology and specialty materials such as
shape-memory foil and X-ray resistant
coatings.
At the direction of AFRL scientists,
NASA integrators placed most of the
specimens in aluminum trays that hold
roughly 46 samples. Other specimens
were installed directly onto the trays, while
a few specimens were bolted underneath
the base plates to ensure they were exposed
only to solar radiation.
Besides Air Force experiments, the

Hospital flexes muscle, flashes leather to rout J & J
By Wayne Amann
Academy Spirit staff
Not even a steady drizzle could cool
off the Hospital’s #1 bats or their gloves.
The Medics paraded 19 batters to the
plate in the fourth inning Monday night,
exploding for 16 runs and 15 hits in the
frame, en route to a 26-3 rout of J & J
Maintenance in Academy Intramural
Softball League action on Field 1. The
game was called after four innings due
to the 20-run rule.
Hospital’s airtight defense was
equally dominant. The Medics did not
commit an error and limited J & J to just
two harmless singles over the last three
innings. The wet weather conditions
made their glove work even more impressive.

first baseman Mark Lomenick emphasized. “You still have to play regardless
of the weather.”
And play they did, by design.
“Before the game, Coach (Kevin)
Ciesla stressed playing the best defense
we could because of the rain,” Hospital
shortstop Luke Hopstad said. “He put a
really strong defensive lineup out there
tonight.”
J & J was hoping to bounce back
from their July 11, 31-14 loss to the
Medics. Hospital dashed those hopes
early.
The first six Medic batters reached
base and scored in the opening frame.
Nolee Agulto keyed the uprising with a
two-run double. Lomenick’s run-scoring
double, Ciesla’s RBI single plus sacrifice flies by Marlon Brown and Edwin
Trias helped put J & J in a 6-0 hole.
The Damiens responded for J & J in
their half of the first. Dad Jack ripped a
two-run double high off the right center
field fence and son Derek followed with
an RBI double to cut the deficit in half.
That’s the closest J & J would come.
Hospital began to pull away in the
second thanks to Lomenick’s two-run
home run. It was one of his three extrabase hits in the game.
“We try to emulate his swing,” a
kidding Hopstad said of his talented
teammate. “He leads by example. He’s
a good ball player. He hits the ball hard
and square.”
An infield error cost J & J another
run in the third as Hospital ballooned its
lead to 10-3.

contributed to the fateful fourth inning
collapse. But, it was the Hospital’s
hitting clinic that won it.
The Medics merry-go-round on the
bases was highlighted by four homers,
two- and three-run shots by Hopstad,
plus a two-run blast by Todd Mangus and
a solo variety from Trias.
Five Hospital hitters each collected
two hits in the fourth, including Wade
Dolbow, who went four-for-four, all
singles, part of the Medics 28-hit attack.
“The last three years I’ve been here
this team’s been a long ball hitting group,”
Lomenick recalled. “That’s how we
generate a lot of our runs. But, we can
get base hits when the home runs are used
up.” (The AISL employs a five home
run limit rule.)
Hospital’s victory, coupled with it’s
26-19 win over the 10th Communication
Squadron in game two Monday, gave
the Medics (11-1) sole possession of
first place by one game, at press time,
over Security Forces in the AISL National
League. J & J dropped to 9-4.
Academy, MWC eye sportsmanship, scholars
By Wayne Amann
Academy Spirit staff
As the fall sports season gears up across the country
it’s time for the annual Mountain West Conference
Sportsmanship Initiative. It’s an important reminder
to everyone what college athletics are all about.
The MWC 2005-06 Student-Athlete Advisory
Committee, which includes the Academy’s Kristen
Hamlett of the women’s volleyball team, issued a letter
recently to conference students outlining its position.
It reads:
“The Mountain West Conference Student-Athlete
Advisory Committee believes the most important
aspects of sport are good ethics and positive sportsmanship. We are very pleased the Conference continues
its initiative to enhance this philosophy. We need your
assistance to make this effort a success.
“The SAAC believes that, in order for an institution to convey a message of good ethics and positive
sportsmanship, it must have the involvement and participation of everyone involved with athletics on campus.
This includes, but is not limited to, the president,
athletics administrators, coaches, student-athletes and
you – the students/fans. It is our behavior that will shape
the perception of our institutions and teams by the
public, the media and our opponents.
“Good ethics and positive sportsmanship are
philosophies that must be displayed both on and off
the playing field. We must take a leadership role to
compete at the highest levels, always endeavoring to
win, but doing so with grace, class, dignity and respect.
“Please join us in supporting
the Conference’s Sportsmanship
Initiative. Such an effort will help
make the Mountain West
Conference one of the premier
athletic conferences in the country,
and represent our institutions
well.”
Meanwhile, the MWC office,
July 11, named six swimmers
from the Falcons swimming and
diving team as Mountain West
Conference Scholar-Athletes for
the 2004-05 season.
Representing the men’s team
are junior Matt Karmondy, sophomore Matt Sievers and freshman
Spencer Liedl.

Leake, an operations research major from
also named to the 2005 ESPN The Magazine Academic
All-America University Division Men’s At-Large All- Springfield, Mo., posted a 3.88 GPA and Johnson, out
of Enid, Okla., recorded a 3.87 GPA in biology.

To make the MWC Scholar-Athlete honor roll,
Sievers, a San Antonio, Texas native, posted 3.67
GPA in computer science while Leidl, a Neenah, Wis., student athletes must have completed at least two
semesters or three-quarters at the certifying institution
product and management major, had a 3.83 GPA.
On the distaff side junior Ginny Miller, sophomore while maintaining a cumulative grade point average
Blair Leake and freshman Kallyn Johnson earned of 3.5 or better, and have competed in at least one varsity
contest in their respective sport.
MWC scholar-athlete recognition.

Ortho resident brings athlete’s perspective to medicine
By 1st Lt. Ellen Harr
59th Medical Wing Public Affairs
Air Force Print News
LACKLAND AFB, Texas — With
the grueling hours that most medical
residents work, many are content to
spend their precious “free” hours
catching up on sleep.
Capt. (Dr.) James Bales, an orthopedics resident with the 859th Surgical
Operations Squadron here at Wilford
Hall Medical Center, is no exception. But
he is just as likely to spend his rare
moments of free time running, swimming
or cycling.
After graduating from the Academy
in 2001, Dr. Bales headed to Georgetown
University in Washington, D.C., for
medical school.
When his courses began, he found
that the school charged $6 a day for
parking. To save money, Dr. Bales
decided to run or bike the 10-mile
commute to and from school each day.
The decision saved him money. It
was also the beginning of his career as
a triathlete.
As a child growing up on a farm in
eastern Colorado, James and his brothers
often helped their father by exercising
the sheep in the evenings.
“We chased them around for 40
minutes every night. It helps the sheep
develop lean muscle mass. I guess you
could say that’s how I started running,”
Dr. Bales said.
During Dr. Bales’ time as a cadet at
the academy, he was part of the swim
team. A breaststroke specialist, he made

the Olympic Trial cuts in 2000.
“After swimming (at the academy),
I found that I was a pretty good runner.
Eventually, I began competing in
triathlons,” he said.
Dr. Bales’ unique combination of
training and commuting to medical
school led him to become the top-ranked
triathlete in the Air Force for the past
three years.
He has competed in Ironman
triathlons in Hawaii and Wisconsin and
qualified for the Olympic Trials in the
triathlon for the 2004 Summer Olympic
Games in Athens, Greece. His accomplishments also include four regional
championships. Even as a medical
student, Dr. Bales was able to participate
in about 25 races per season.
“My philosophy on racing, espe-
cially as an orthopedic surgeon, is that
we see patients who don’t have the ability
to run or even walk. You really feel
blessed. It’s truly a gift to be out there
competing and racing,” he said. “I’m
thankful that the Air Force really supports
physical fitness activities.”
After graduating from medical
school, Dr. Bales began his residency at
Wilford Hall. He continues to balance
work and athletics.
“One of my criteria for buying a
house when I came to San Antonio was
that it would allow me to commute to
Wilford Hall on bike,” he said. “Right
now, orthopedics and patient care are
my top priorities. I continue to train just
for the love of it. Hopefully I’ll be able
to maintain a baseline level of fitness.
It’s also a great stress reliever.”

years. Payments include principal plus interest.

first year interest rate of 1.58%. The interest rate is 1.95% in the first month, interest plus margin thereafter.

principal loan balance. Interest rate adjusts monthly based on an index and margin and may increase. Minimum
payment adjusts annually up to a maximum of 1.075% of the previous year’s minimum payment. Projected
composite APR over life of loan is 3.438%, based on initial interest rate, current index, and margin. APR may
vary. The current index is 1.37%. Loan To Value Ratio of 80% or less.
