AUSTIN LONG 2nd Marine Division “We are a force in readiness,” said Sgt. Josh- ua Washington, a squad leader with 2nd Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment. “Although we are training to prepare for our deploy- ment to Okinawa, we still need to be ready to go any- where in the world.” Washington’s squad conducted a live-fire ex- ercise Feb. 11 at Shooting Range - 6 as part of a sev- en-day battalion field op- eration in preparation for the battalion’s upcoming scheduled deployment. During the field op, the squad practiced estab- lishing a squad defensive position, patrolling, mili- tary operations on urban terrain, and counter im- provised explosive device training. As a squad leader, Washington issued a five paragraph order, an order telling his Marines how to complete the mission objective.

Once all the informa- tion is collected, Wash- ington then tells his squad in detail what their job will be during the mission and what to do in case of friendly casualties.

Hazardous materials are found anywhere and everywhere. Many products containing hazardous chemicals are stored under the kitchen sink. They range from anti-freeze to radioactive waste, and they can purify drinking water, increase crop production, and make field day at the barracks much easier. These chemicals can also be hazardous to humans or the environment if used or released improperly. Hazards can occur during production, stor-age, transportation, use or disposal. Marines are at risk if a chemical is used unsafely or released in harm-ful amounts into the environment. Chemical wastes that can contami-nate the soil, seep into groundwater, or run into rivers and streams are a threat to public health and the envi-ronment. These products are shipped daily along the nation’s highways, railroads, waterways and pipelines. They are most often released as a result of transportation accidents or because of chemical accidents.

Hazardous materials in various forms can cause death, serious injury, long-lasting health effects, damage to buildings, and damage to homes or other property.

Characteristics of hazardous wastes are ignitability, level of cor-rosive properties, reactivity and toxicity.

Ignitable wastes can create fires under certain conditions, are sponta-neously combustible, or have a flash point less than 140 degrees Fahren-heit, such as gasoline, which has a flash point of minus 40 F, waste oils

and used solvents.Corrosive wastes, for example bat-

tery acid, are acids or bases with a pH number less than or equal to two, or greater than or equal to 12.5 capable of corroding metal containers such as storage tanks, drums and barrels.

Reactive wastes are unstable un-der normal conditions. They can cause explosions, toxic fumes, gases or vapors when heated, compressed or mixed with water such as lithium-sulfur batteries and explosives.

Toxic wastes are those contain-ing concentrations of certain sub-stances in excess of regulatory thresholds which are expected to cause injury or illness to human health or the environment.

The waste with the most potential to do harm simply because they are generated from residential house-holds is Household Hazardous Waste. HHW only applies to wastes resulting in the use of materials labeled and sold for home use. The following list includes categories often applied to HHW. It is important to note many of these household wastes can fall into multiple categories.

Paints and solvents Automotive wastes such as used

motor oil and antifreezePesticides such as insecticides,

herbicides and fungicidesMercury-containing wastes such

as thermometers, switches and fluo-rescent lighting

Electronics such as computers, televisions and cell phones

Aerosols and Propane cylinders Caustics and Cleaning agents

Refrigerant-containing appliances Some specialty batteries such as

lithium, nickel cadmium or button cell batteries

Radioactive waste such as some home smoke detectors classified as radioactive waste because they con-tain very small amounts of a radioac-tive isotope of americium.

Mixing chemicals can be deadly. Cleaning products such as bleach and ammonia can create chlorine gas. The gas is so powerful it was used as a chemical warfare agent in World War I. It can attack your eyes and mucous membranes, but if inhaled could cause death. If it’s not deadly, it could cause pneumonia or other ex-treme illnesses.

In the workplace, when purchas-ing any HAZMAT, employees must check the Environmental Manage-ment Division’s website http://www.lejeune.usmc.mil/emd1/Portals/0/Forms/Revised_AHML_020911.pdf to make sure the product desired is on the authorized hazardous material list.

For more information on handling and storing hazardous materials con-tact your Environmental Compliance Officer or refer to Marine Corps Or-der P5090.2A, Base Order 5041.2T and Navy Marine Corps Directive 5100.8.

As Marines, sailors and civil servants we live by our core val-ues. Think before you jeopardize the safety of yourself, your fellow Marines, sailors, civilian employees or family members, and remember Semper Safe.

SemperSemperSafeSafeBy Derrick J. Mangas

with Luis J. Alers-Dejesus

The Pentagon recently announced the new Distinguished Warfare Medal,

which will be awarded to military drone pilots who control unmanned

aircraft involved in combat operations, with the pilots not directly in combat themselves. The medal is below the

Distinguished Flying Cross and above the Bronze Star with combat V device in order of precedence. Do you agree with this order of precedence, and if not, where do you think it belongs?

WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/CAMPLEJEUNEGLOBE WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/CAMP.LEJEUNE

Honestly, what’s next, a ribbon for playing “Call of Duty” in your room in the

barracks?

Dan Simon

Colleen Power Bonacci

Disagree. Bronze Star with Combat V should definitely be above this in order of importance. Drone use is definitely

important and the drone operators are certainly skilled, but there’s no comparison

to the bravery and risk assumed by those who actually stand on the front line.

When it comes to the Veterans A d m i n i s t r a -tion, perma-nent does not

necessarily mean your benefit is per-manent. To have a 100 percent per-manent and total rating only implies your dependents are eligible for ben-efits like Dependents Educational Assistance and Civilian Health and Medical Program. The rating is not completely protected. A veteran must maintain the rating for 20 years without interruptions in order to achieve a protected rating. Until that time the VA could require an evalua-tion or re-evaluation.

The original award letter contains codes veterans need to familiarize themselves with to determine if the rating is temporary or permanent. If the award letter states “no future exams are scheduled,” the rating is permanent. If it states “eligibil-ity to dependents Chapter 35 DEA / CHAMPVA is established,” the rating is also permanent. Those statements contained on the VA Letter may differ precisely from one Regional VA Office

to another but should be similar. If the letter states “future exams are

scheduled," or there is no reference at all to future exams or other depen-dent benefits, the award is more than likely temporary. The VA establishes the rating as permanent when there is little substantiated chance a condition will improve. It is not a perfect pro-cess when establishing the permanen-cy of a rating, therefore it is up to the veteran to know what to do or in the very least to find out. As a rule, most mental health conditions and cancers will be temporary ratings. A veteran must hold a 100 percent permanent rating for 10 years, uninterrupted, for their family to be eligible to apply for Dependency Indemnity Compensa-tion benefits should the veteran die of anything other than a service con-nected condition.

If the letter states no future exams are scheduled, it does not mean the veteran will never be subjected to an exam in the future. It simply means there isn’t one currently scheduled. However, the VA can schedule an exam at any time and for any reason as previously mentioned. If you have

a 100 percent rating and you decide to file for another disabling condi-tion, you may be scheduled for a compensation and pension exam to review your current rating. If the re-sults of the C&P exam imply an im-provement, most likely there will be a proposal to reduce the permanent 100-percent rating. Veterans who fall under temporary duty un-employ-ability must remember to complete VA Form 21-4140 annually. Failure to complete this annual requirement could result in a proposal to reduce the rating – be vigilant.

Most states require a veteran to be permanently and totally disabled before they are eligible for any state benefits. Many states do not compre-hend what "no future exam" means. You can write your Regional VA of-fice and request a letter to clarify the disability status. If a veteran needs a permanent rating assignment, they may write to the regional VA office and request a permanent rating desig-nation. However, the assignment will not be based solely upon the need, but on the reasonable chance a condition will improve.

Translating veterans affairs letters

The Globe, Camp Lejeune and retiree community is mourning the loss of Randy Reichler, the Retired Affairs coordinator for Ma-rine Corps Installations East – Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, who died Sunday night due to illness. Reichler, 62, served 24 years in the Navy as a corpsman, 16 of which were with the Marine Corps. He spent 17 years after retiring from active duty in federal civil service and was also the representative to the Secretary of the Navy Council in Washington, D.C., in regard to military retirees and their families. He was a great friend to and staunch advocate for Marines, sailors, retirees and their widows everywhere as he assisted more than 3,000 service members and their families this past year alone. His “Retiree Corner” column, dedicated to dispensing valuable advice to veterans and their families, regularly appeared in this publication.

“Randy Reichler personified the virtue of selfless dedication to others as completely and genuinely as anyone most of us have ever known,” said John B. Sollis, director of Marine Corps Communi-ty Services. “His sudden, unexpected death leaves us stunned and deeply saddened. The best tribute any of us can pay to this remark-able man is to emulate his sterling example – to do far more for others than we will ever ask in return.”

“Just consider the number of people he assisted just this past year and multiply the figure by 17 years of service to truly get the scope and breadth of this man’s value to this community,” said William Joseph, director of the MCB Camp Lejeune Reception Center. “It’s not even counting the people he would talk to or help on the way to lunch on base or out in town. It did not matter to Randy.”

Funeral services are scheduled for this Friday beginning at 10:45 a.m. at Brookwood Baptist Church in Jacksonville. Call 346-8189 for details. Reichler will be buried at the Coastal Carolina Veterans Cem-etery in Jacksonville, N.C., immediately following church services.

It definitely does not belong above any medal awarded for actual combative duty - no

matter what the award is. Being a drone operator may be important, but it does not belong above any award given to someone actually putting their

life on the line for us.

Dinar Ehsan was only 18 years old when his world changed forever.

His father, Abdul, a com-puter engineer for Micro-soft, just deboarded a flight in Kabul when Taliban sol-diers stopped the bus he was on. Abdul fled to Germany five years earlier to escape the regime’s violent reign. The soldiers emptied 30 bullets into his body.

Dinar’s mother feared for her son’s life, so she gave him a handful of money and told him to flee Afghanistan. Dinar boarded a bus and headed to Pakistan. On his way out of Afghanistan, Dinar saw the real atrocities commit-ted by the Taliban.

“That day I left, on my way to Pakistan, I still re-member the bloodied bod-ies,” said Dinar. “I remem-ber seeing men, women and children strewn alongside the roads throughout Afghani-stan. I was very confused.”

He fled to a large Afghan refugee camp in Karachi, Pakistan. Dinar, a native speaker of Dari and Pash-to, began to look for work within the camp. While attending high school in Kabul, he became fluent in English. He decided he wanted to teach language skills to other Afghans.

Dinar joined the Paki-stan American Culture Center and became a lin-guist. He began teaching Afghans within the camp, mostly Hazaras and Shias, English and computer skills. For 10 years, he taught English and com-puter classes to approxi-mately 60,000 refugees.

“Many of the people who attended my classes had very little formal edu-cation,” said Dinar. “Most

barely knew how to read or write Pashto or Dari, and very few knew any English at all. At the end of my classes, I had many stu-dents who were competent in all three languages.”

In 2007, Al-Qaeda as-sassinated Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto and the stability in Pakistan began to deteriorate. Sectarian clashes became widespread throughout the country and many areas became too dangerous to live in.

Return to AfghanistanIn 2009, Dinar returned

to Kabul to escape Paki-stan. He couldn’t believe what he saw. When he left,

most of the infrastructure in Kabul was underdeveloped and many of its people were thrust into destitution under the repressive rule of the Taliban. But now, the entire city looked different.

“I saw many new build-ings, many new cars, and people walking freely in the streets,” said Dinar. “I thought to myself, this couldn’t be the same place. This couldn’t be Kabul. When I saw these things, I knew the time of the Taliban was over.”

Dinar saw the impact the coalition troops had on Afghanistan and decided he wanted to be a linguist for them. He submitted his package, took the linguistics

test, and was assigned to Helmand province.

In 2010, Dinar was as-signed to 2nd Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment as part of an Afghan National Army Kandak adviser team. The unit trained for one month in Kabul before traveling to Helmand province. Di-nar and the Marines came under heavy attack during their movement, including six improvised explosive de-vices and 17 ambushes. The Marines and ANA pushed through the obstacles and located the Kandak within Marjah.

Dinar served alongside Marines in Helmand ever since. He risked life and

limb to see the Marine Corps succeed. In 2011, he was inside a Mine-Resis-tant, Ambush Protected ve-hicle when it struck a 200-pound IED. No one inside the vehicle was killed how-ever, Dinar sustained many injuries including a broken jaw and cracked teeth.

The Future“Dinar currently works

with the ANA’s 1st Brigade, 215 Corps as a member of the coalition advisor team. He serves as the lead trans-lator for the commanding officer. Working with the ANA, Dinar saw the transi-tion in Afghanistan and he says he is optimistic in the

future of the country. “I was a kid born into

war with the Russian in-vasion and the Taliban regime,” said Dinar. “But I saw great change. Kids finally have a future in this country. The majority of people gained a reason for a normal life.”

Dinar says personally he hopes to one day get a visa and travel to the U.S. He wants to attend college and study education so one day he can return to Afghani-stan to become the one thing that has already de-fined his life — a teacher.

“Education is the only power you can fight with,” said Dinar.

It takes hundreds of Ma-rines and sailors to support a single operation. There are a variety of special-ist roles covering different aspects of the mission. In the case of a raid, there are infantry Marines execut-ing on the ground. There are Marine enablers, who play specific support roles during the assault: engi-neers, explosive ordnance disposal and intelligence specialists. There are Ma-rines who drive or fly to and from the target: pilots, motor transportation op-erators, crew chiefs and

vehicle gunners. There are the Marines who maintain those vehicles and aircraft’s mechanics, flight deck crews, avionics, airframes, engine specialists, and ord-nance Marines. There are even more supporting all of them: cooks and armor-ers, and other Marines and sailors in the ship’s services who support their needs in terms of food, laundry, weapons and more.

And then, above it all, there are the Marines who allow it to happen: plan-ners, intelligence shops and the leadership.

As far as planning, me-teorology, or the science of weather, is a crucial part of the process during a mission.

Marines are known to operate in any clime and place, and the Marines specializing in this skill as-sist the 26th Marine Expe-ditionary Unit in deciding how best to do it, resulting in the preservation of life and equipment.

“The big thing people don’t realize is how impor-tant it is,” said Staff Sgt. Tony Shaffer, meteorologi-cal and oceanographical section chief for the 26th MEU. The 26th MEU is a sea-based unit, and, as such, has to deal with the weather at sea.

“Our biggest thing on the MEU is ship-to-objective movement and the aviation aspect,” said

Shaffer. How rough the sea is, quantified in what is called the sea state, deter-mines which assets can be launched and recovered, and how to do so.

“Every vessel has its own limitations as far as seas go,” said Shaffer. The landing craft, air cushion and amphibious assault vehicles are not safe to op-erate above a certain sea state, determined by the METOC Marines.

“It’s where we step in,” said Shaffer. They serve as a reminder of the im-pact rain has on the soil, the effect mist will have on night vision goggles, or how clouds play in the targeting of an AV-8B

Harrier. METOC Marines cover the weather-related aspects of operations that might otherwise be lost in the shuffle of thousands of other details.

The METOC Marines take raw data from a num-ber of different sources and systems, including Navy and Air Force databases, and after verifying the in-formation by testing it with their own instruments, put it together in a neat pack-age tailored for whomever needs it. “We forecast for jump zones, for air opera-tions, for beach landings, and sea states. Everything from the climatology of an area to a four-day fore-cast and strike briefings,” said Sgt. Jason Contreras, weather forecaster and observer. It is a continu-ous cycle with operations going at all hours of the night and day. Especially during times of crisis, their job can be taxing.

“It can be difficult fore-casting for different ar-eas,” said Contreras. The METOC section forecasts weather for everywhere the 26th MEU has a pres-ence, from the Kearsarge Amphibious Ready Group to detachments spred from the East Coast of the Unit-ed States to the far corners

of the globe.Forecasting for the en-

tire unit can be difficult, Contreras said. “There’s different local effects driv-ing weather patterns in different places: types of terrain, bodies of water, the local climate — all of it different. It can make our job pretty challenging sometimes.”

In the end, this is just one part of the machine that is the MEU. One gear among hundreds, all of which need to work in concert to achieve the mission objec-tive, to preserve the lives of Marines, sailors, and their equipment. METOC Ma-rines assist 26th MEU in being a certain force in an uncertain world.

The 26th MEU is con-ducting its Composite Training Unit Exercise, the final phase of a six-month pre-deployment training program. The 26th MEU operates continuously across the globe, providing the president and unified combatant commanders with a forward-deployed, sea-based quick reaction force. The MEU is a Ma-rine Air-Ground Task Force capable of conduct-ing amphibious operations, crisis response and limited contingency operations.

CPL. MICHAEL LOCKETT26th Marine Expeditionary Unit

The concept of the Ma-rine Expeditionary Unit is not a new one. It’s the small-est iteration of the Marine Air-Ground Task Force, a unit with air, ground and lo-gistics assets all subordinat-ed to a command element. It streamlines efficiency creating strength and effec-tiveness out of proportion with the size of the unit on paper and giving the unit a huge range of mission capabilities.

The difficult task of streamlining belongs to the

Special Operations Train-ing Group, usually re-ferred to as SOTG. SOTG was founded in the early 1980s to train MEUs for deployment, though the group focused more on the MEU’s special operations capabilities at its incep-tion. Since then, SOTG became the on-scene train-ers and evaluators for the MEUs as they prepare for their possible missions of mayhem and mercy.

“We are tasked with providing training, eval-uation and mentoring for the MEU from compos-ite to certification and deployment,” said Col.

Eric Steidl, SOTG officer in charge.

SOTG oversees the ini-tial part of pre-deployment in the capacity of teaching the groups involved to car-ry out their missions be a mechanized assault, a hu-manitarian assistance or disaster relief operation.

“We’re not coming here to say you’re wrong, you’re jacked up. We’re here to help them get ready to get out the door,” said Maj. Dan Murphy, operations officer for SOTG. Mem-bers of SOTG take their years of experience in these operations and apply them to readying the 26th MEU

for whatever the world dishes out during their up-coming deployment.

During the later exercis-es of the pre-deployment training program, SOTG transitions to an evalua-tion role creating and man-aging the training environ-ments the 26th MEU and the ships of the Kearsarge Amphibious Ready Group are currently operating in.

“We control the exer-cise, then we assess and evaluate the MEU,” said Murphy.

The 26th MEU will be evaluated on its final exer-cise, the Composite Train-ing Unit Exercise, based on its ability to smoothly carry out its mission essential

tasks, before SOTG sub-mits its recommendation to II Marine Expeditionary Force, which in turn sub-mits its recommendation to Marine Forces Command, who ultimately signs off on the deployment.

The long at-sea exer-cise serves another pur-pose for the 26th MEU, which is to integrate with the sailors and ships of the Kearsarge ARG and Amphibious Squadron 4. The Marines and sail-ors of the 26th MEU are spread across three ships, USS Kearsarge, USS San Antonio and USS Carter Hall, for the duration of the deployment. Smooth-ly meshing with their

Navy counterparts is es-sential for the Marines of the 26th MEU.

“Things affecting the blue side will affect the green side, and things affect-ing the green side will affect the blue side,” said Steidl.

The 26th MEU is cur-rently completing the fi-nal phase of a six-month pre-deployment training program, preparing for this year’s deployment. The MEU is a task-orga-nized, scalable MAGTF, serving as an expedition-ary crisis response force operating from the sea, and capable of conduct-ing amphibious opera-tions across the full range of military operations.

In the middle of the night more than 80 Afghan National Civil Order Po-lice and less than 10 Ma-rines boarded helicopters.

The plan was to insert south of the Helmand Riv-er in Kajaki and surprise the insurgents at dawn, clearing a known enemy stronghold Feb. 13. When the sun rose, the insurgents were scrambling as Afghan police began entering com-pounds, destroying weap-ons and improvised explo-sive device caches.

While Marines provided

the helicopter support, the operation to clear Shah Ma-lay and Azan Crossing was planned by Col. Rahimi, the ANCOP commander.

After a recent opera-tion, Col. Rahimi pointed across the river to where a lot of the insurgents were, said 1st Lt. James Magen-heimer, the operations of-ficer with Kajaki ANCOP Adviser Team.

He said he wanted to go clear the area and started planning. The Marines just helped enable it.

Four Tolays, or com-panies, cleared the com-pounds and objectives, while Col. Rahimi main-tained communication

with his men and talked to the local elders, said Magenheimer.

The commander also made sure the searches were being conducted properly and the local population was kept safe, Magenheimer said.

The ANCOP was en-gaged in multiple firefights throughout the operation and destroyed numerous IED caches.

The Marines of 2nd Bat-talion, 7th Marine Regi-ment provided fire support from the opposite side of the river. For the most part, however, the ANCOP han-dled its own side and rear flank security, said Sgt.

Robert Cheatham, a Joint Terminal Attack Control-ler with the ANCOP Ad-viser Team.

“They did a great job,” Cheatham said. “They work off mostly light in-fantry tactics and as a whole, the ANCOP did a great job while we worked with them.”

The Marine advisers praised the success of the mission and expect more good things to come from the ANCOP.

“This ANCOP proved to be independent,” Ma-genheimer said. “Their de-liberate planning improved and their execution was al-ways good.”

The parade deck outside of 2nd Long-s h o r e m a n P l a t o o n ’ s

home at Stone Bay, Marine Corps Base Camp Leje-une became a Moroccan port for a short time on the weekend of Feb. 8. Vehicles carrying minor or feigned cargo passed through the gates and with the help of

Marines, soldiers and sail-ors, navigated checkpoints and obstacles the service members could face in the upcoming U.S. African Command and Morocco annual training exercise, African Lion 2013.

In mid-April when Af-rican Lion 2013 comes into full swing, Marines from 2nd Longshoreman Platoon, a reserve platoon with 4th Landing Support Battalion, 4th Marine Lo-gistics Group, along with 688th Rapid Port Open-ing Element soldiers from

Fort Eustis, Va., and sail-ors with Military Sealift Command Expeditionary Port Unit 107 from Ra-leigh, N.C., are scheduled to work on the Moroccan port to ensure the proper offload gear, equipment and assets needed for mis-sion success.

While the service mem-bers from multiple branch-es typically work side by side during African Lion 2013, this is the first time the dock workers have been briefed or trained together while in the United States.

“This is an opportunity to start working as a team here while practicing what we will need to do (in Mo-rocco),” said Capt. Ania Driscoll, the Inspector In-structor of 2nd Longshore-man Platoon.

By communicating with the separate branches involved, leaders of the participating units going found many of the tasks they needed to complete complimented each other.

“We’re combining our efforts to facilitate the big picture,” said Driscoll.

Establishing relation-ships now allows the ser-vice members set up a rap-port early in the game.

“We’re breaking the ice before we go to Morocco,” said Navy Lt. John Rende-rio, a sailor with Military Sealift Command Expe-ditionary Port Unit 107. “Being able to meet each other before we arrive takes a lot of the learning curve out. We can hit the ground running when we arrive at Morocco. ”

Sailors with Military Sealift Command Expedi-tionary Port Unit 107 are to act as a liaison between those conducting dock op-erations and the ship bring-ing in the cargo.

“We’re their eyes and ears on the pier,” said Chief Petty Officer Ray Kelley, a chief boatswain’s mate

with Military Sealift Com-mand Expeditionary Port Unit 107. “We take down the barriers between other branches and the Navy.”

The 688th Rapid Port Opening Element, a part of the Joint Task Force-Port Opening, is seek-ing validation, a process where the group is graded on joint mission essential tasks throughout African Lion 13.

The members or 688th Rapid Port Opening Ele-ment are experienced with creating a team quickly, as they frequently work with other branches. How-ever, having information early was different for the group that typically han-dles emergency response and other events requiring swift support.

“We’re used to having information only hours be-fore a mission,” said Army

Capt. Joseph Borovicka, the commanding officer of 688th Rapid Port Opening Element. “We move very quickly and open seaports and airports rapidly. This is a luxury.”

While the extra prep time is not something the team needs, it is a welcome aspect of their preparation.

The Marines, sailors and soldiers spent the days learning about their individual roles in the big scheme of the port they will be working on during African Lion 2013 by uti-lizing a Power Point pre-sentation, diagrams, sand table exercises and by dem-onstrating through practi-cal application.

The Marines were able to see how their part will function in the overall scheme of port operations during African Lion 2013.

“The aerial view (diagram)

and sand tables helped us see the moving parts and gain a greater understand-ing,” said Lance Cpl. Harold Dilbert-Martinez, an embarkation specialist with 2nd Longshoreman Platoon.

Driscoll expects giving the troops as much infor-mation as possible will em-power them.

“Junior Marines are thinkers,” said Driscoll. “They have awesome ideas to bring to the table that we don’t always see. Our most junior Marine is still a lead-er. We want them to go out there with the confidence to get everything done.”

While African Lion 2013 tackles training and humanitarian assistance along with a multitude of other actions, the team can rest easy knowing they have prepared for the chal-lenges ahead.

Marines were patrol-ling and fighting alongside Afghan Uniformed Police for several years, but in

Kajaki the Marines are focused on a dif-ferent fight – staying out of the way.

Marines and sailors with Police Advi-sor Team 4 established relationships with the local AUP and are now in a strictly advisory role.

The team’s role no longer includes training, according to Sgt. Michael El-lis, a military policeman with the team. Instead, the Afghan government took the lead on training its police officers,

to include advanced courses for non-commissioned officers and explosive hazards reductions.

“They know how to do everything, so we are moving from coaches and teach-ers to overseers. We say, ‘You know how to fish, let’s see you do it,’” Ellis said.

The team is designed to directly mim-ic the AUP’s infrastructure. Each Marine officer has an Afghan counterpart who works in the same field such as supply, logistics or communications.

The commanding and executive officers of the team reflect the jobs of the District Chief of Police and the Assistant DCOP.

“(We) are advising their key staff members in their functional areas to co-ordinate their efforts with their higher headquarters,” said 1st Lt. Chad Ernst,

fires officer and Joint Terminal Attack Controller with PAT-4. “We are trying to help them get the Afghan support they need in the correct format.”

In years past, the Marines told the Af-ghan leaders how to best solve a problem. The test, however, is no longer open book.

“When we advise them, the biggest thing we try to do is get them to come up with an Afghan solution to the prob-lem,” said Ernst.

A few times a week, the team visits the Kajaki Police Headquarters and nearby Checkpoint Doblex.

“We finished a joint operation, and they have shifted some personnel around,” said Ellis. “Doblex holds a tactical advantage because it is the only route (insurgents) use from Keneshe

Wan to bring in money, ammunition and supplies so they have to search those vehicles.”

The AUP continue to improve in the Kajaki District, according to Ernst.

“The guys on the ground, the patrol-men, are great,” Ernst said. “They are trained, dedicated and willing to do what is necessary to secure (Kajaki).”

The final step will be the AUP coordi-nating with local Afghan National Secu-rity Forces without the help of Marines, Ernst said.

“We want them to learn this is their dis-trict, so they should be coordinating with ANSF in the area,” Ernst said. “We want to show them the Afghan National Civil Or-der Police and the Afghan National Army, and say ‘They are doing it, you can too.’”

Upcoming Field InvestigationInvestigation of Off-Base

Surface Danger Zones (SDZs) Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

What: From March to June 2013, Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune will be conducting an expanded intrusive investigation to further evaluate the presence or absence of munitions and explosives of concern in terrestrial or coastal wetland areas adjacent to the base’s southeast boundary. This investigation is a continuation of the digital geophysical mapping conducted in 2009-2010, in which magnetic sensors mounted on low-flying helicopters (over water and wetlands) or carried by hand (on land) were used to detect metallic anomalies.

This “intrusive investigation” of selected anomalies identified during the 2009-2010 surveys will identify the types of metallic objects and potential hazards that are present in the former surface danger zones (SDZs). The investigation team will use hand-held magnetometers and metal detectors to locate the objects and will dig them up by hand.

Why: Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune has been investigating areas adjacent to the Base’s southeast boundary that might have been affected by past munitions training. The investigation is being conducted as a necessary precaution, because training could have resulted in some munitions debris in these areas. There has been no indication of a safety risk to the surrounding community, nor have there been any reports of munitions found.

In 2010, environmental and intrusive investigations were conducted at Bear Island. No environmental contamination or munitions or explosives of concern were discovered. Although some munitions-related debris was found and removed, there has been no indication that munitions or explosives of concern are present. Therefore, no additional work is planned at Bear Island.

For More Information: You can learn more about the SDZs investigation work online at:

www.lejeune.marines.mil/SDZ.aspx

want to make sure the new Marines are learning their role with their new squad mates.

“So far the training has been cold, wet and muddy,” said Lance Cpl. Walter Johnson, a team leader with the battalion. “My team is doing well and learning how to adapt to the weather and building unit cohesion. I was a team leader for a couple months, but this is my first field op with the new Marines. We’re trying to teach these new Marines the importance behind their job and to take care of each other no matter how stressed they are or how wrapped up they are in their own problems.”

New Marines may sometimes struggle with learning a unit’s operating procedures for a field op or even a deployment, but for the new Marines of 2nd Battalion, 6th Marines, this not so small obstacle was easily over-come.

“Coming out, the Marines were excited to train,” said 2nd Lt. Brad Adams, a platoon commander with the company. “This is actually the first time for our new Marines to train in the field with the unit. Which is good for our unit cohesion, and it allows them to learn how we operate and what is expected when conducting fire missions.”

OKINAWA FROM 1A needed. For this operation, the Afghans have the lead.

Although the Marines will serve alongside them for the duration of the mission, they will not be providing weap-ons, equipment, or manpower for the counterinsurgency operation. They will simply provide mentorship.

For the past seven months, the Camp Pendleton-based advisor team has pushed 1st Brigade to become self-reliant. And with much success, they have. So over the next week, the success and failures of the operation will rest heavily on the ANA leadership. And according to both U.S. and Afghan officials, that is exactly where the responsibility should lie.

Transition in AfghanistanIn January, Presidents Barack Obama and Hamid

Karzai met in Washington, D.C., and decided to speed up the military transition in Afghanistan. Both agreed Afghan forces would take the lead in combat operations starting this spring.

“What’s going to happen this spring is that Afghans will be in the lead throughout the country,” said Obama during his speech alongside Karzai. “That doesn’t mean that coalition forces including U.S. forces are no longer fighting.”

They will still be fighting alongside Afghan troops. It does mean though that Afghans will have taken the lead and our presence, the nature of our work will be different. We will be in a training, assisting, advising role. It will be a historic mo-ment and another step toward full Afghan sovereignty.”

Within Helmand, the 1st Brigade has already taken the lead controlling more than 60 percent of the battle space. In November 2012, the unit signed the Transfer of Lead Security Responsibility, strengthening the capacity of the Afghan National Security Forces in the region.

According to Lt. Col. Philip Treglia, the commanding

officer of the adviser team, 1st Brigade is a model unit that demonstrates the increased development of the ANA.

“For 43 months, the brigade has worked side-by-side with Marine advisers and they have been able to mirror what the Marines do on a tactical level,” said Treglia. “The 1st Brigade is now in the lead and their maturity level and capabilities as a brigade is remarkable. They are the true definition of Afghans leading Afghans.”

The push through Trek NawaOn Feb. 10, approximately 800 ANA soldiers with the

1st, 2nd, and 3rd Kandaks of the 1st Brigade swept through Trek Nawa disrupting insurgent activity along the way. Al-though the soldiers came under heavy fire, they were able to suppress and defeat the enemy.

During the operation, 19 insurgents were killed and 26 were captured. The 4th Kandak’s Route Clearance Com-pany dismantled 34 improvised explosive devices that had been emplaced by the enemy and located four weapons caches.

The clearing operation marked the first major operation the unit had completed since signing the TLSR. The coor-dination between the Afghan National Army, Afghan Uni-formed Police, and Afghan Local Police was the key to the mission’s success. Because of their proficiency, the three pa-trol bases were completed a day earlier than expected and no civilian casualties were reported.

Sarwar said he was impressed with 1st Brigade’s achieve-ments in Trek Nawa and he believes future operations will show the true abilities of the Afghan National Security Forces.

“Through our planning, our mission in Trek Nawa was a success,” said Sarwar. “We have learned that coordina-tion with our counterparts is critical to any operation and this will define our operations in the future.”

“Training is what we do as Marines,” said Lt. Col. Kevin E. Clark, the battalion commander of 2nd Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment. It’s time to get back to a culture where we’re ready to deploy.”

All units deploying to Afghanistan are required to undergo the Marine Corps’ premier desert warfare training, called Integrated Training Ex-ercise, formally known as Enhanced Mojave Viper, which is a 28-day exercise to prepare Marines of all occupational specialties for the mental and physi-cal demands of combat.

According to Clark, the battalion’s goal is to

be ready to fight a con-ventional battle and suc-ceed across the range of military operations, while armed with the perspec-tive and good judgment to execute what is required during their deployment in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.

“It’s about being at the right place, at the right time, with the right person-nel and equipment, ready to train, which establishes the battalion’s reputation, which 2nd Battalion, 8th Marines ruthlessly de-fends,” said Clark. “2nd Battalion, 8th Marines maintains perspective that ITX prepares them more for the unknown deploy-ment and not simply the known deployment to Afghanistan.”

Currently based at Camp Wilson, the Ma-rines of 2nd Battalion, 8th Marines will soon transi-tion to one of the Forward Operating Bases to con-duct their training.

“Though we train all year long, this is the fi-nal test to ensure the Marines are ready,” said 1st Sgt James Breland, the company 1st Sgt for Headquarters and Service Company.

The conduct of this training allows Marines to have a better idea of the living conditions in a de-ployed environment.

“Marines will benefit from this training be-cause it removes them from the comforts they have back at Camp Leje-une and places them in an unfamiliar environ-ment,” said Breland. “It really tests everything

that the Marines have learned.”

Though the actual training iteration began Feb. 22, timelines won’t stop the Marines of 2nd Battalion, 8th Marines from getting in a little ex-tra training.

“Right now we’re do-ing fire direction center drills,” said Sgt. Ryan L. Maclary a squad leader with Weapons Company, 2nd Battalion, 8th Ma-rines. “The FDC is giving us the azimuth to our tar-get, and right now we’re just getting the mortar up on the deflection they’re giving us (manipulating the mortar system while hearing directions coming from the radio) so we can have rounds impact the target.”

2nd Battalion, 8th Ma-rines will conduct a wide range of missions and scenarios during their ITX in order to prepare for not just the upcoming deployment, but a vast ar-ray of potential missions; fire support coordination exercises, platoon and company attacks, mecha-nized and aerial assaults, and counterinsurgency operations.

The Marines of 2nd Battalion, 8th Marines have high expectations for their upcoming train-ing, as they get ready for combat.

“This is my first time doing any type of training like this as well as my first deployment,” said Pvt. Blain A. Maggio, a gunner with 2nd Battalion, 8th Marines. “I don’t expect it to be easy, but I am ready to get started.”

Marines teach EnglishCAMP ALAMO, AFGHANISTAN

SGT. BOBBY YARBROUGHRegional Command Southwest

Scribbling inside his notebook, Sgt. Najibullah Qabel writes down his home-work assignment: write one paragraph, containing five sentences, that demon-strate past and present verb tenses.

Over the past 16 weeks, Qabel and other Afghan National Army soldiers with the 1st Brigade, 215 Corps have voluntarily taken home the daily as-signments as part of an English course taught by the brigade’s adviser team at Camp Alamo.

For Qabel, the assignment will be challenging, but one he is more than willing to do.

Qabel studied English before while attending high school in Kunar prov-ince, but it has been 12 years since he graduated. He admits he has forgot a lot of the basics, but he says he is eager to relearn them.

“I don’t want to miss out on learning something because I do not understand the language,” said Qabel. “We can learn a lot from the [adviser team] and I want to be able to communicate with them.”

The Marines with the 1st Brigade ad-viser team developed the English course after ANA Col. Mohammad Sarwar, the brigade’s executive officer, asked the Marines if they could teach basic Eng-lish skills to some of the soldiers.

In September 2012, the Marines be-gan teaching a four-week course to a handful of ANA officers and enlisted soldiers. At the time, it was designed to be a one-time course; however, the class was so successful they decided to con-tinue it.

The course is divided into two

groups: basic and advanced. The dif-ferent classes allow for each student to learn at their pace and provides an op-portunity for individual growth.

The basic class teaches alphabet pro-nunciation, writing uppercase and low-ercase letters, and speaking introductory phrases. The advanced class challenges students with writing assignments, which include forming sentences, using proper verb conjugation, and subject-verb agreements.

According to Capt. Jason Thomas, the information officer with the 1st Brigade adviser team, the class is fun-damental to building a relationship be-tween the Marines and the brigade.

“These types of programs are vital as advisors because the first rule is to build rapport,” said Thomas. “That’s what we are doing. We are getting that face-to-face interaction with Afghans teach-ing them a skill we have that they are interested in learning.”

Thomas said teaching English is a rewarding experience for him because it brings him closer to the ANA soldiers he works alongside daily.

Things get busy and at times hectic,†said Thomas. “But when I go to class and teach those guys, when I am done, I am always happy. It’s very rewarding because each class they learn a little bit and become very excited to use what they learned.”

Qabel said he would continue to at-tend class as long as it is available to him. He says he loves learning and he will continue to absorb as much as he can.

“I am 30 years old and I continue to learn something each day,” said Qabel. “With English, it is the same way. Your learning is never complete.”

Indoor

soccersoccerNew intramurals open doors for athletes

JESSIE HEATHSports editor

It’s a sport like no other. Fast-paced and over in the blink of an eye, indoor soccer is a new challenge for

athletes eagerly waiting for the spring soccer season.

The intramural indoor soc-cer tournament kicked off a new season in the Goettge Me-morial Field house aboard Ma-rine Corps Base Camp Lejeune Feb. 23. With nine teams participating every Saturday in March, the high-speed games take center stage on the court while families and friends cheer from the balconies.

Saturday’s games began

with DMO taking the court against 2nd Battalion, 9th Marine Regiment’s team. Playing on an enlarged bas-ketball court, the teams used everything to their advantage to battle for dominance. They bounced the ball off the folded bleachers and refused to waste the precious 10-minute halves they had to score as many goals as possible. It was a chal-lenge they thrived on.

“Most of us played soccer before we joined the Marine Corps,” said Pfc. Louis Gil, a member of the DMO team. “This is just a new way to play.”

The indoor soccer teams begin each game with four players on the court and one

guarding the goal. Teammates wait in the wings to relieve players who need a break from the rapid pace of the game. Unlike regular soccer games, athletes switch in and out as necessary without being offi-cially recognized by referees.

“Indoor soccer is really fast,” explained Warner. “They need breaks because it’s so intense. You can play a few minutes and feel like you did an entire game outside because you’re running and moving so fast to keep up.”

DMO didn’t have a problem keeping up with the fast pace of the indoor soccer tourna-ment. Despite their nerves at

THE GLOBE, CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. 2B FEBRUARY 28, 2013

I wish I had better news to share with you this week, but I cannot report many changes on the fishing front.

Fishing remained very slow last week, and with surf temperatures barely tipping the scales past 52 degrees Fahrenheit and sound temperatures hovering around 50 de-grees Fahrenheit very few anglers were able to get outside to enjoy fishing.

I spent some time in the local creeks near my home recently and noticed the bait level was very low. Bait is some-where, as it did not yet disappear completely, but it is very difficult to find and catch.

Regardless, I had the good fortune of hook-ing something large on a chartreuse Gulp! bait. I was so startled after the slow week of fishing I forgot what a bite felt like and what to do to reel it

in. The fish took out some drag and the line went limp. I thought I lost the fish, but it turned out to be heading in my direction. By the time I took the slack in it turned on me and went the other direc-tion pulling the hook with it. I will do better next time, I promise.

Other than a few exciting seconds on the creek I heard very little in the way of fish. There are some trout still swimming around the Neuse River Creeks like Hancock and Slocum.

In the New River, al-though numbers are much lower than normal, there are a few fish available. I also heard of anglers landing a few fish near the Highway 24 creeks. Most fish were caught using Gulp! baits and live mud minnows, although I advise a word of caution – mud minnows are hard to find right now. Good luck locating them.

Speaking of bait, I am sad to say I cannot report much in the way of catches. With the cold weather upon us the bait are congregating else-where to stay warm.

It would be of interest to anglers to note there are also schools of drum

in the marshes. Like every other cold-weather snap, it will require some searching to find the drum schools, but let me assure you they are still out there.

No one was fishing on the Bogue Pier the last few weeks, but note it will be opening during St. Patty’s weekend to cel-ebrate The Emerald Isle St. Patty’s annual rite of spring celebration March 16 and 17.

I did not hear of any-body getting far enough offshore to catch anything last weekend. The nasty weather kept boats teth-ered to docks.

I know many anglers are itching to get back offshore, but I urge all fishermen to exercise cau-tion and patience as we head into spring fishing. The weather in Eastern North Carolina can be notoriously unreliable in the spring months. Do not go offshore without ensuring all equipment works properly and let-ting others know where and how long you intend to fish. If there are any concerns about fishing offshore it is best to stay inshore where you can be more certain of your safety. Remember, no matter what, safety comes first.

In other news, as we approach March in Eastern North Carolina,

the spawning shad are starting to appear in the rivers and creeks. I heard of hickory shad in the Tar River and the Neuse River, and as far west as Kinston and Goldsboro. In the coming weeks anglers should see them in the usual creeks like Contentnea Creek and rivers soon including the Roanoke River from Wel-don on down the river.

A few white shad were caught at Contentnea Creek in Grifton as were sparse hickory shad. For anglers interested in shad fishing there is an on-line group website with updates on where and when spring shad runs are occurring.

For regulations con-cerning the catch of hick-ory and white shad, also known as American shad, visit the North Carolina wildlife website.

The Ask Dr. Bogus Fish-ing show can be heard every Monday morning at 7:30 on 107.1 FM and 1240 AM, and can be accessed on the Coastal Daybreak Facebook page at any time. To join the shad group website visit www.dir.groups.yahoo.com/group/NC-shad. For more information on the regulation of shad visit www.ncwildlife.org or call your local wildlife representative or bait shop. For more information on games, tryouts,

Defi ning old:

My mother has a saying. It was a favorite of hers for as long as I can remember, and she will share it with anybody who will listen.

I can’t count the number of times I heard her tell her husband, father, brother or best friend not to use the word old. When they asked why she simply replied, “Old is a state of mind.”

It took me a long time to under-stand what my mother was trying to teach. Her favorite saying didn’t resonate with me until I reached college and was asked to provide a definite age for the time youth ends and old begins.

Try it. I couldn’t do it.Age is a number. Age repre-

sents the number of years a person walked the earth, and the approxi-mate number of years they have left to do so. Old is an adjective, used to add emphasis to a specific noun.

If you don’t believe me ask marathon runner Fauja Singh. At 101–years–old, Singh is believed to be the “oldest” marathon runner alive. He was born in 1911 in a rural farmtown in Northeast India, and like most people who live to be 100 or longer, he has a story to tell.

Singh didn’t start walking until

the age of 5, but lived a rela-tively normal life. He married, had children and grandchil-dren and outlived his wife

before his life changed forever.It was the tragic death of his son

which turned Singh into a runner. After watching his son’s death dur-ing a storm passing through their village, Singh’s other children, who all moved to London, convinced him to move closer to them. He complied, but despite moving him-self and his life to London, his heart was still in India.

To combat the feeling of loneli-ness and depression settling over him, Singh decided to join a run-ning club of ex–patriot Sikh families living in London.

Who would have thought a man once too weak to walk found strength in running?

Singh declared running was the only time he could escape his grief. When running he only thought about the next step. After seeing an organized marathon on television he decided it should be his next step.

He was just as capable of run-ning a marathon as anybody else. He found a marathon run-ning coach and informed him of his desire to run a marathon. At 89–years–old with only 10 weeks

of marathon training, he took part in his first London Marathon. Six hours after crossing the starting line, Singh finished four hours, forty-eight minutes behind the winner.

The following year he entered the London Marathon again hoping to break the current record for males 90 and older. He finished the race 57 minutes ahead of the previous 7 hour, 52 minute record. With the shattered record, Singh became a star.

Over the next decade he would rise to be one of the most well–known runners in the world, regard-less of the fact very few people knew his name or understood his religion. He became the man who ran with the turban on his head – the one from somewhere in eastern Asia.

In 2011, at the tender age of 100, Singh took part in the Toranto Waterfront Marathon with one goal in mind. He already broke every record possible. The only one remaining was to become the old-est marathon runner in the world. Singh pounded the pavement for 8 hours, 25 minutes before he crossed the finish line and broke the only record he did not already claim as his own.

101–year–old runner fi nishes last marathon, keeps moving

Good luck trying to define the moment youth ends and old begins. You can’t. After all, old is only a state of mind.

They are trailblazers. Students first, athletes second and dedicated no matter what. The Lejeune High School womens’ basketball team swept past every obstacle they encountered this year to be named the top 1A seed in North Carolina.

It is an honor a long time in the making.

“We are thrilled to be here in this position,” said Kevin Popadines, LHS head basketball coach. “Each game was a challenge this season, but we’re here and focusing on it right now.”

In their first playoff game against 16-seeded Wallace Rose-Hill, the

Devil Pups delighted fans by holding onto the lead the entire game. While Wallace Rose-Hill attempted to turn the odds against Lejeune, the Devil Pups stood their ground with strong shots, rebounds and turnovers, playing an all-around strong game.

With Chatori Major and Nikia Wallace lead-ing the way, the Devil Pups’ 57-45 victory over Wallace Rose-Hill. The ladies of the LHS bas-ketball team displayed a strong sense of teamwork and focus the whole time.

“We were missing one of our starting players tonight – our starting center – which threw us off a little,” admitted Popadines. “But the girls

played hard. Chryssandra Tatum did really well on her rebounds for us, and Nikia did an excellent job.

“I was really proud of Amber (Overton) to-night,” Popadines added. “She had one of those really good games not necessarily reflected on the scoreboard. She did very well.”

The road to the state playoffs was neither easy nor a journey the Devil Pups expected to take at the beginning of the sea-son. With first-year coach Popadines at the steering wheel, the women’s bas-ketball team took every game one step at a time, focusing on the task at hand. Three months later, they are still doing the same thing.

“I don’t want to take anything for granted,” cautioned Popadines. “We have to play every game here on out a little harder to keep wins. You know, at some point the season is going to come to an end. It’s just wheth-er it comes to an end with a win or a lose.”

Popadines doesn’t take credit for the team’s suc-cess either.

“They worked hard to get here,” declared Popadines. “We have girls who really stepped up this year. I’m proud of them.”

For the faculty and staff at LHS the Devil Pups’ success this season was clear from the start. Many supporters and fans decided 2013 would be the year of the Devil Pup early in the season, a decision which gained strength with every win.

Dust off your golf clubs and shake off the winter blues. It’s time to golf.

The 42nd annual Marine Federal Credit Union Intercollegiate Golf Championship warm-up is back, and the Marine corps Base Camp Lejeune golf team is seeking members to represent the base and Marine Corps in the tournament.

The largest tournament of its time, the Intercol-legiate Golf Championship boasts 31 teams who con-verge upon Paradise Point Golf course for a three-day tournament. Participating teams are hand-selected and invited by the Paradise Point golf course staff, ensur-ing a high level of competition among teams.

The Intercollegiate warm-up, a precursor to the championship tournament, will be held March 9 and 10 at Paradise Point. The warm-up is open to all local active-duty and retired service members, as well as Department of Defense personnel and dependants. Participants will take part in a 36-hole challenge over a course of two days, calculating their gross score for consideration on the team. The top five qualifying participants will earn a spot on MCB Camp Lejeune’s team. The entry fee for the warm-up is $25 and no entries will be accepted after March 6.

“Golfers will play the blue tees, which are the championship tees, on the Scarlet and Gold golf courses,” said John Johnson, head golf professional at Paradise Point. “The best gross scores will win a spot on the team.”

To ensure accurate scores, golfers in the warm-up will be grouped by fours and exchange score cards with each other. At the end of each round of golf, they will review their own score cards, sign to verify accuracy, and hand in to golf professionals for team consideration.

“We want to uphold the integrity of the game,” ex-plained Johnson. “We’re looking for good players who can show integrity of golf and the Marine Corps.”

In his first year involved in the Intercollegiate Golf Championship, Johnson is relying heavily on notes

from former tournaments and his own desire to ensure the golf championship is a good experience for all involved.

“When we sent out the team invitations we received a really good response,” said Johnson. “All the teams are excited to come back, and they are ready to par-ticipate in the tournament again. Since it’s gone on so long the camaraderie among teams and the amateurs who participate with these college kids takes care of itself.

“We have some regular customers who – even before we put out any information about the tourna-ment or the warm-up – came in and wanted to play with certain schools or be paired with certain college players,” Johnson added.

The 42nd Marine Federal Credit Union Intercol-legiate Golf Championship will take place March 21

through 24. The first two days of the tournament will be played with all 32 teams and local amateur golfers. The third day will feature only the college teams, as they battle for the Intercollegiate championship cup.

In 2012, Methodist University was the number one ranked team at the end of the tournament, followed closely by Oglethorpe University and Greensboro Col-lege, who placed second and third respectively.

“This is about growth of the game, reaction from the players and the camaraderie of the civilian and military worlds,” explained Johnson. “We want to see people come out and support this.”

kids loved going out and shooting,” said recreation assistant Chadwick Wells. “We have an after–school archery program, but this was more of a way to get the parents and children involved in a particular activity where they could interact with each other.”

Every step of the way, parents and children interacted together, learn-ing and growing in their knowledge from each other. Wells and recre-ation assistant Amanda Littlejohn started the class by teaching the 10 steps to shooting. They walked participants through the shooting steps, correcting minor mistakes and teach-ing the science behind each step. They helped participants learn which eye to use to help them

aim and perfect their form before handing out rubber bands to simulate bows.

Under the cover of a picnic shelter, participants lined up to practice their form and acquaint their bodies with the different positions archery requires. While the rain and weath-er made learning difficult, participants demonstrated their knowledge to learn by keeping their attitudes positive despite the dreary weather.

Wells said most of the parents had experience shooting as children, but had not done so in a long time and enjoyed using the course as a refresher.

“When we do after–school archery we let the kids coach each other a little,” said Wells. “So with the parent and child

class, we had both of them learning from each other and learning how to shoot together.”

To give each par-ticipant the maximum experience, Wells and Littlejohn split the group into 10 pairs and let two pairs shoot on five targets at a time.

After mastering the 10 steps to shooting, archers tried their hand at using regular targets as well as 3D targets set up at vari-ous distances around the archery range.

Watching the par-ticipants comprehend and master the new skill set was exciting for Wells, who has a love for the sport.

“When they learned what they needed to do and made the first

really good shot, the smile that came on their face because of something they produced made me happy,” explained Wells. “It’s tough to master but once you get the basic concept of releasing the bow, it’s not difficult to learn.

“As soon as you learn, it’s not something you can forget easily,” added Wells.

Rising in popular-ity due to multiple films, the demand for archery classes is high. Outdoor Adventures offers summer archery camps, as well as after school archery programs for young pa-trons aboard MCB Camp Lejeune, but doesn’t have as many outlets to teach and educate parents.

“I would like to see

archery taught year round and getting some parents involved to learn a new skill,” said Wells. “We would like to do some more of these clinics, since there is interest in them. I think the more the merrier, because I love to teach it and I want them to have a good time learn-ing something new.

“Hopefully, next time it won’t rain,” Wells joked. “It’s good shooting weather, but it’s not fun learning weather.”

Outdoor Adventures will offer after–school archery clinics for patrons ages 7 through 12 this spring.

the new atmosphere, they scored steadily, securing their first win of the season over 2/9 Marines with a 4-1 victory.

“I really like the pace of indoor soccer,” said Pfc. Andres Fernandez, a member of the DMO team. “It’s really fast and less formal than regular soccer. I was a little at a loss on the first game, and I think we were all nervous, but we picked it up and it was a lot of fun.”

Indoor soccer teams played as hard as they worked, calling to one another across the court. With a high volume of games to play in one day, they didn’t waste any time with the formalities of outdoor soccer. Families cheered from the balcony bleach-ers as kick after kick was aimed at the net, not wanting to go into overtime, which would present even more of a challenge than in regular soccer.

“Depending on the length, if we go into overtime, we get rid of the goalkeepers,” explained Antonio Warner, the intramural sports specialist who first introduced indoor soccer to MCB Camp Lejeune in 2006. “If they can’t score without the goalkeepers, we will take away another player and make it a three on three game. Then, two on two and so forth.”

The indoor soccer teams will play from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., depending on the length of games each Saturday. March 30 will fea-ture a post-season, single elimination tour-nament to crown the championship team.

“The biggest challenge is to allocate all the games on one day so the teams get to play enough games without having them think it’s a hindrance to stay in the gym all day,” admitted Warner.

So far, it doesn’t seem like a problem.

After learning from their first game DMO was eager to get back to the drawing board to prepare for their second round of games.

“We’re going to work on triangles this week,” said Fernandez. “We were dribbling the ball too much. In this type of setting you need to have a touch-touch-go system for ball handling. We also need to communicate more, so we’ll work on it a little as well.”

The next round of indoor soccer games will be held Saturday at the Goettge Memo-rial Fieldhouse. Nine games will take place during the weekly tournament. Admission to watch games is free and seating is avail-able in the balcony of the fieldhouse.

There was one problem, though. The Guiness Book of World Records did not show up to verify the race. Without a birth certificate, as there was no such thing when Singh was born, his age was not verifiable. Guiness would not accept his passport or any other form of identification. The record was not officially Singh’s to claim.

None of it seemed to matter to Singh. While numerous reporters com-mented notoriety obvious-ly mattered, all agreed his love for running mattered more. Singh was noted as saying, “They day I stop running will be the day I die.”

Singh ran in his last marathon, the Hong Kong Marathon, Feb. 24. He may no longer be a racer in the marathon circuit, but he is most certainly still a runner.

Singh is not the only runner of his kind. Long after many others hang up their hats, athletes with true passion will keep do-ing what they love as long as possible. Their love for their sport – running, box-ing, soccer – drives them.

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune has it’s own version of Singh. Re-tired Sgt. Maj. Domenick A Irrera is a fixture at the Grand Prix race series. At the age of 86, Irrera runs between 35 and 40 miles per week. Every morning he starts his day with a run around Camp John-son, going as far as his legs will carry him. While he admitted he may not be as strong or fast as he used to be, he adamantly refused to stop running until he is physically inca-pable of doing so.

“I’ll always be out there,” Irrera said in 2011. “I’ll always be running.”

Like Singh and Irrera, everyone is driven by something. Be it a sport, a profession or a family, ev-eryone has something to thrive on. The things we choose to thrive on know no limits – they drive us despite obstacles or age.

Our country thrives on service members’ willing-ness to give up time with their families and friends to become silent protec-tors of people they will never meet.

Long after they hang up their uniform for the last time, retired service members and veterans continue to give back in whatever way possible. Their loyalty to their country and their fellow Americans is what drives them regardless of age, sex or race.

As Irrera once told me, “There is no such thing as a retired Marine. Once a Marine, always a Marine, no matter what age.”

Are you still attempting to decide when old age begins?

Good luck trying to define the moment youth ends and old begins. You can’t. After all, old is a state of mind.

their conference rivals, Pamlico High School, Feb. 22, fans knew they had what it took to come out on top.

“You should have seen the game Friday night,” raved Jeanette Martinez, who attended the game with her daughter. “It was one of those back and forth games against Pamlico, and it was really excellent.”

“I knew if we won through the conference we would have the opportunity to play home games,” said Popadines. “When you’re playing so many games it’s nice to have home court advantage.”

With another win to add to their undefeated total, the LHS wo-mens’ team was instantly focused on their next game. Wednesday night they would host South Robeson, the No. 8 seed in the state for the second round of the playoffs. Despite home court advan-tage, the intense playing schedule is rough for high school athletes who also have schoolwork to focus on.

“We could play four games at home before we have to go on the road,” explained Popadines. “We certainly hope to keep going but whatever happens, I will be happy and proud of the girls.”

AMY BINKLEYAssistant managing editor

Crime never sleeps. Neither do investigations.For every question, a hidden answer waits to be

found.Nearly 100 students, teachers and volunteers

arrived on the scene for the CSI Camp-for-a-Day at Hunters Creek Middle School in Jacksonville, N.C., Feb. 21.

“Through hands-on activities and experiences, we give kids the opportunity to use the science and math they learn in school, and show them how those skills can be applied to the real world and even a future career,” stated Dr. Delores Etter, Southern Methodist University Institute executive director.

The event, hosted by the Caruth Institute for En-gineering Education at SMU in partnership with the Military Child Education Coalition, allowed the students to become super sleuths for the day while interacting with professionals from Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune’s Naval Criminal Investigative Services, K-9 Unit and Criminal Investigations Division.

“We decided early on we were only working with mili-tary communities,” explained program director Lindsey Groarke. “Military kids are so transient they might not get a chance like this.”

Groarke knew the biggest challenge she and her team faced was showing how the subjects aren’t only useful but cool.

“Research shows if kids aren’t exposed to science and math before eighth grade, they’re less likely to pursue a career in it,” she said. “By bringing in (the military orga-nizations) and setting up a scene for them to investigate, it becomes more real and relatable for them.”

“THE IMPOSSIBLE” (PG-13)

“The Impossible” is a real-life drama and inspirational story of a family caught in the 2004 tsunami.

The film is the un-forgettable account of a family of five, vacation-ing at a Thai resort, who is caught, with tens of thousands of strangers, in the mayhem of one of the worst natural catas-trophes of our time.

The true terror is tem-pered by the unexpected display of compassion, courage and simple kind-ness the family encoun-ters during the darkest hours of their lives.

Naomi Watts (“Dream House,” “Fair Game,” “The Painted Veil”) stars as Maria.

Ewan McGregor (“Salmon Fishing in Yemen,” “Haywire,” “Perfect Sense”) plays her husband Henry.

Tom Holland portrays their 15-year-old son Lu-cas, Samuel Joslin plays Thomas, the 7-year-old son, and Oaklee Pender-gast is Simon, the 5-year old-son.

The couple and their three sons begin their winter vacation in Thai-land, looking forward to a few days in tropical paradise.

The morning of Dec. 26, as the family relaxes around the pool after their Christmas festivities the night before, a terrible roar rises up from the center of the earth.

As Maria freezes in fear, a huge wall of black water races across the hotel ground toward her.

The family is separated and a desperate search to reunite is the most impor-tant thing.

There begins a journey to the core of the human heart.

Spanish director Juan Antonio Bayona (“The Orphanage”) powerfully retells the epic, intimate, harrowing and uplift-ing account of survival, based on experiences of the devastating tsunami.

“The Impossible” is a compelling and gripping family survival drama that, knowing it really happened, is incredibly hard to watch. The visual achievement and special effects make the film so realistic one can feel the emotions and devastation.

Note: The film re-ceived many accolades, including an Oscar-Award nomination of best actress for Watts.

Now playing at the Patriot 12 and Carmike 16 in Jacksonville

“A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD” (R)

“A Good Day to Die Hard” is an action film and the fifth installment in the popular “Die Hard” franchise.

In this film, John McClane is really in the wrong place at the wrong time when he travels to Russia to help out his seemingly wayward son, only to discover his son is a CIA operative work-ing to prevent a nuclear

weapons heist, causing the father and son to get caught up in the crossfire of a terrorist plot.

Bruce Willis (“Die Hard” series, “Loop-er,” “Red”) is repris-ing his famous role as John McClane, the iconoclastic, ‘take-no-prisoners’ New York City cop.

For the first time, the ‘real hero’ with skills and attitude to always be the last man standing, is com-pletely out of his ele-ment when he travels outside the country and finds himself on foreign soil to help his estranged wayward son Jack.

However, unknown to McClane, his estranged son Jack, played by Jai Courtney (“Jack Reach-er”), is now a highly trained agent protecting nuclear weapons.

While the Russian mob is in hot pursuit

and battling a count-down to war, the two McClanes soon team up, only to discover their opposing methods make them unstoppable heroes.

Co-starring are Sebas-tian Koch (“The Lives of Others”) as Yuri Koma-rov, a government whis-tleblower; Yuliya Snigir as Irina, Komarov’s evil

daughter Mary Elizabeth Winstead (“Scot Pilgrim vs the World”) as Lucy, Jack’s sister, and Cole Hauser (“The Chronicles of Riddick”) as Collins.

Director John Moore (“Max Payne,” “The Omen,” “Behind Enemy Lines”) shot this movie in Hungary and gave it a little Bond mystique with extraordinary stunts, ex-plosions and car chases.

Willis still has the edge and still captures the hearts of moviegoers.

“A Good Day to Die Hard” is a rather noisy and explosive, over-the-

top action-packed crime thriller that has our hero facing his greatest chal-lenge, making him enemy number one for terrorists the world over.

This is one franchise that will never die.

The film experience was twice as exciting by seeing it on the Super-sized Big D Screen in a stadium-like screening room at the new Patriot 12 theatre.

CPL. PAUL PETERSON2nd Marine Logistics Group

He wanted to get his social security card so he could start working. He found out he was eligible for the draft instead.

It was nearly 70 years since Turner G. Blount reported to Montford Point, N.C., where he and approximately 20,000 other African Americans com-pleted their Marine Corps recruit train-ing between 1942 and 1949.

Blount shared his experiences while serving with the historic first group of African-American Marines during the 2nd Medical Battalion, 2nd Marine Logistics Group Black History Month celebration here aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune Feb. 15.

“We wanted the event to be special,” said Petty Officer 2nd Class Daniel D. Slaughter, who helped organize the event with the battalion’s equal opportunity committee. “These guys went through extensive training and the different adversities of being segregated. At the end of the day, they were Marines. They trained to be Marines and to serve their country just like everybody else.”

Blount and his fellow recruits were segregated from other Marine units. Their training facilities near Jacksonville, N.C., remained separate from their white counterparts even though the war they fought was the same.

“Someone was trying to do away with our country,” said Blount as he casually recalled the early days of World War II. “They said there were going to be some places [we had to] go, and there were go-ing to be some problems. I said, ‘Is that right?’”

Blount didn’t even know who the Ma-rines were when he first began his enlist-ment process. He did hear they were “the best thing going,” and it was enough for him.

He joined the front lines of the war in the Pacific where he fought through the invasions Tinian, Saipan and Okinawa.

“It was a rough time,” said Blount, as he recalled the various operations he took part in during the war. “We didn’t move fast because we had to sleep at night and dig our holes in the ground. We’d go in pairs – you and your friend … with your gun.”

The service members quietly listened

as Blount told them what it was like to lead his Marines during the island-hopping campaign that drew American forces closer and closer to the Japanese mainland.

After the war, Blount left the military. He returned to active duty again in 1950 during the Korean War and continued his career through the Vietnam War.

He eventually retired as a master ser-geant and decided to remain in Jacksonville.

“I’m still a Marine,” laughed Blount as he addressed the room of service members. “Don’t that make sense?”

In 2012, Blount and other Montford point Marines received the Congres-sional Gold Medal, the nation’s highest civilian honor.

“This is American history,” said Louise Greggs, a representative from

the national Montford Point Marines Museum. “He was not even allowed to go into the city of Jacksonville after 5 o’clock because of the color of his skin … (later) Mr. Blount was a four-term elected city councilmen who helped make decisions for the same city he was not even allowed in.”

The battalion’s leadership honored Blount with a small token of appre-ciation after his speech by presenting awards and flowers to the Blount family.

“It shows the young Marines and sailors the things weren’t always the way they are now,” said Slaughter. “It’s what the Marines and sailors took away from this. Even though you’re going to be faced with adversity, you’re going to have to stay strong and just push through.”

CPL. CHARLES CLARK 2nd Marine Division

More than 120 guests attended Lejeune’s Got Talent, a talent show and luncheon, at the Tinian Room inside the Marston Pavilion Feb. 14.

The show, a spoof of the television show “America’s got Talent,” entertained its guests and set a prec-edent for future Officer and Spouses Club member events.

“We have a lot of talent in the division,” Jennifer E. Trimble, Officer and Spouses Club division representative. “It was the driving force behind why I wanted us to do this. I knew we could pull it off.”

The event started with a meet and greet hour. The guests were welcomed by the soft stylings of a violin-ist and a cellist in the Mar-ston Pavilion’s main lobby.

As the attendance swelled, the laughs and smiles grew more fre-quent, friends new and old talked and caught up

with each other.After the meet and greet,

the doors of the Tinian Room were opened and the guests flocked to view more than 50 pieces of art from Bitz Elementary School, Heroes Elementary School, Brewster Middle School and Lejeune High School students, while the Division Jazz Band’s music filled the room.

“We have more than just one form of talent for this event,” Trimble said.

Col. Beau Higgins, the commanding officer of Headquarters Battalion, 2nd Marine Division and Lejeune’s Got Talent master of ceremonies, introduced the crowd to the special “ce-lebrity” judges as the guests found their seats.

The judges were Col. Kenneth M DeTreux, 8th Marine Regiment com-manding officer, who was dressed as Howie Man-del, Sue Journey, dressed as Sharon Osborne, and Col. Bradley R. Hall, 10th Marine Regiment com-manding officer dressed as

Howard Stern.“It really all came

together because of the fun personalities our judge’s brought to the evening,” Trimble said.

Higgins then intro-duced the first contestant, Amy Zappa, who sang an acapella song. The audi-ence and judges applauded wildly as the last few notes faded. The judges praised her performance and sent her to the next round.

“We found out Zappa sang back-up with Michael Bolton so we knew she was very talented,” Trimble said.

Higgins introduced the second contestant, Emily Pagragan who showcased a complicated Irish step dance whilst holding a mug of soda. Pagragan jumped and danced with the mug not spilling a drop.

The judges seemed astounded as she came to a stop with a smile on her face and the crowd going crazy.

Accolades were said as the judges gave their verdict. Pagragan went to

the next round.“Pagragan wanted to

show her dancing skills, which we knew would blow everyone away,” said Trimble.

Higgins grabbed the microphone and told the guests there would be an hour luncheon before the next two contestants showed their talents.

During the lunch break, the Division Jazz Band jammed as the conversa-tions of the performances thus far spurred amongst the guests.

After the luncheon, Higgins walked back to center stage dressed as Elvis Presley and welcomed the third contestant, Zach Stephenson.

“My husband was deployed with Stephenson, and I guess he saw some talent in him while in the field,” Trimble said. “When Stephenson said he wanted to play a song he made for his wife we knew it would be perfect for the show.”

Stephenson sang and played guitar to an original

country song he wrote for his wife as a Valentine’s Day present.

“Celebrity” judge Sharon Osborne commented how the song moved her as the other women swooned in agreement.

“You captured my heart and my vote,” Osborne said. It was no surprise when the judges voted for Stephenson to continue on to the next round.

Higgins introduced the final contestants, the GEO Dancers.

The GEO Dancers are a dancing group made of seven officers’ wives.

They danced a choreo-graphed step to two songs, Backstreet Boys’ “Back-street’s Back” and PSY’s “Gangam Style” while wearing matching red, sequined shirts.

“The dancers really took it to another level when they got their costumes,” Trimble said. “The dancers started working together last October and from there it snowballed into the amaz-ing dancing we saw today.”

The audience and judges applauded, whistled in awe and laughed at the astound-ing stepping.

The judges laughed and said how much they loved the performance.

“This was truly a difficult and challenging achieve-ment; you all performed flawlessly,” said “celebrity” judge Howard Stern. “You definitely have my vote for being just outstanding.”

The GEO Dancers were unanimously sent to the next round.

Higgins brought the four acts back out and told the audience it was up to them to decide who won the tal-ent show.

The “celebrity” judges chimed in and revealed all the performers won.

Trimble handed out bags of prizes for all the con-testants and the judges for participating in the show.

“The real winners here are the guests,” Trimble said. “With such an amaz-ing bunch of performers and judges, I think we all had a blast.”

NAVY LT. DOYL MCMURRYMarine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

A “Mulligan,” a term used in golf (and other games), is when a player has the opportunity to make up for a poor shot by retaking it. When someone “takes a Mulligan,” there is no penalty to their score or other negative consequence, and the players continue as if the previous poor shot had never even happened.

Of course, this opportunity to “turn back the clock” is not without restrictions; Mulligans are not allowed in tournaments, and even in friendly games, they are usually limited to one or two per round of golf.

In life, there are many moments when we say the wrong thing to someone and hurt them, or we do something that we soon regret. We make mistakes, and we desperately want to go back and “take a Mulligan,” if you will.

Unfortunately, this cannot happen; choices are made, words are spoken, and we have to deal with the consequences. However, the Bible does give us the promise of a “spiritual do-over” of sorts in the Apostle Paul’s second letter to the church in Corinth.

In this letter, Paul reminds us that we can be “a new creation,” and that the “old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.” (2 Corinthians 5:17) .

This doesn’t necessarily do away with negative consequences (legal or otherwise), but it does let us know that, no matter what we may have done in the past, we don’t have to keep living with the burden of guilt or shame or condemnation.

In other words, we don’t have to resign our-selves to a life of failure because we have made some poor choices; we can have, in a spiritual sense, a “clean slate”…and the peace and freedom that go along with it.

Sound too good to be true? Rest assured, this opportunity is ours, just for the asking; the promise we read in 1 John 1:9 makes this abundantly clear for us. (An interesting point to ponder: if God is willing to give us a “do-over” in our relationship with Him, how should that influence our relation-ship with others?)

So I ask you again, Do you want to take a “Mulligan?”

CPL. MARCO MANCHA2nd Marine Division

The Jackson-ville-On-slow Mili-tary Affairs Committee

recognized a 2nd Marine Division Marine as the Service Member of the Year during a ceremony at the Camp Lejeune Of-ficers’ Club recently.

Sgt. Jeremy Butler was selected as the MAC Service Member of the Year for his overall performance and profi-ciency in his duties for

2nd Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment.

“I was surprised because I didn’t think I was going to get it,” said Butler. “I mean I really did this for my Marines. If it wasn’t for them, I wouldn’t be here today.”

Butler highly attributed the award to the hard work and dedication put forth by his Marines, and also dedicated the award to 2nd Battalion.

MAC honors one service member a month who exemplifies what it means to be a Marine or sailor. Service members selected as the Service Member of the Month are eligible for Service

Member of the Year.Butler was also selected

as the Service Member of the Month for June in 2012. However, his ac-complishments didn’t stop there.

“Butler’s service to date is nothing short of out-standing,” said Jeff Clark, a Chairman with MAC.

Butler, who served in the Marine Corps for more than five years, was selected as the Non-Com-missioned Officer of the Quarter for the 3rd quarter of fiscal year 2010 and as the Division Marine of the Year 2011. He also re-ceived the Navy Commen-dation Medal with combat distinguishing device for

his superior performance in combat.

“I would just like to thank the battalion be-cause if it wasn’t for them the last five and a half years wouldn’t be the best of my life,” concluded Butler, who recently got married to his wife Erika. “At the end of the day I wouldn’t be able to do everything I did without them.”

The 24-year-old hopes to pursue his career goals and complete a tour as either a drill instructor or a recruiter, as well as seek acceptance into the Marine Enlisted Com-missioning Education Program.

LANCE CPL. JOSHUA W. GRANTMarine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

The Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society will

conduct their annual fund drive through the month of March to provide continued assistance for service members this year.

Senior leaders aboard the base sat down Feb. 20 to sign pledge forms as part of NMCRS annual fund drive kick off.

NMCRS is supported solely through donations making the generosity of the community a necessity.

“Donations to NM-CRS are what keeps the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society running,” said Maj. Gen. Raymond Fox, commanding general of II Marine Expeditionary

Force. “It’s what enables them to provide budgetary counseling to our Marines and sailors, and financial assistance to those who are in need.”

Globally, NMCRS raised more than $12.4 million in 2012, including $339,535 collected from service members aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune.

Combined with funds raised last year, the Camp Lejeune branch of NM-CRS assisted in 5,832 cas-es to distribute $2,425,645 in financial aid dispensed through interest-free loans and grants.

More than $2 million in donated funds were used to aid 1,500 Wound-ed Warriors and their families last year, and 806 widows received financial assistance from NMCRS.

Quick Assist Loans accounted for more than 50 percent of NMCRS

financial assistance in 2012 and provided 50,000 Marines and sailors with $15 million for things such as basic living expenses, transportation, emergency vehicle repairs and family emergencies.

“Supporting the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society helps provide vital resources to our Marines and Sailors in their time of need, allowing the MEF to remain in a constant state of readiness, focused and prepared for mission suc-cess,” said Fox.

Along with financial benefits, NMCRS offers educational assistance for service members to better structure the use of their paychecks, often making a loan unnecessary.

CSI FROM 1C The students separated into six

groups, but before they were sent on their mission to find the perpetrator, they received some expert advice.

“We use math and science every day,” Special Agent Carlos Castro with the Carolina Field Office, Major Case Response Team, told the investigative novices.

He pointed out the principle of ex-change which explains how every time you go somewhere, you leave something behind and you take something with you.

“It’s so important for us to find what’s left behind,” he said. “No two finger-prints are alike. Even the ways people walk and the wear on their soles are unique. Just by touching something, we may be able to get DNA. It’s why we’re careful to preserve the clues and secure the crime scene.”

Castro admitted the skills the students learned were Detective Work 101, but they may have a lasting impact.

“Sometimes there’s a fine line between taking the right path or the wrong path in life,” he noted. “Hopefully, something they learn today or something we say will point them in the right direction.”

One of the clues left behind at the crime scene was a handwritten note by the criminal.

Students were encouraged to narrow down the suspects by doing chromatog-raphy experiments. Leaders explained how many inks are made up of different pigments. By testing the ink on the note and comparing it to the ones from differ-ent pens and markers, the groups were able to narrow down the suspects.

Next, the junior detectives took on the tricks of the fingerprinting trade as they dusted, pulled and identified the prints using special tools provided by the CID team members.

“I like teaching and sharing about my job,” Agent Nicole Connors commented.

“I’m passionate about it. It’s good for (students) to talk to someone with first hand experience and to see how educa-tion is important.”

Connors showed proper dusting tech-niques as each child received the special tools and attempted to pull prints from their props. Once they were finished, students had the opportunity to be finger-printed by the CID team members.

“I actually learned a lot by teaching them,” confessed Investigator Dustin Owen, the newest member of the team. “You realize how much patience and technique it takes to pull a print.”

He added how he hoped the thing the children learned most is being honest, and Connors echoed his sentiments.

“By understanding how criminals get caught, they see it’s better to be honest at the very beginning,” she said. “Teaching them some of our techniques helps them to become enthusiastic about their stud-ies and strive to learn for better opportu-nities in the future.”

Implementing another investigation technique, students broke out the rul-ers and calculators as they attempted to hone their face recognition skills.

Camp leaders noted how face images are the most accessible and easiest to collect, even though they are the least reliable since appearances are easy to change with makeup and disguises.

The day ended with a demonstration by the MCB Camp Lejeune’s K-9 Unit. Military working dogs conducted behav-ioral exercises, including following com-mands to attack and stay, while handlers answered questions from the crowd.

Crime may never sleep, but criminals should watch their backs because the next generation of investigators is on their heels.
