Civilians get a look at life on postBy VERAN HILLFort Jackson Leader

Although security on Fort Jackson remains paramount, local citi-zens were invited to “Come See Your Army” with a tour Feb. 16.

The visits are conducted several times a year to give the local com-munity a glimpse of military life on Fort Jackson.

The tour began when participants boarded a bus and were trans-ported to 120th Adjutant General Reception Battalion where they re-ceived a boisterous welcome by Staff Sgt. David Head, a drill sergeant assigned to Delta Company, 120th Adjutant General Reception Bat-talion.

“Fort Jackson is the Army’s largest initial entry training site. The fort has trained Soldiers for almost 100 years and this June is when Congress designated Fort Jackson’s existence, so we will celebrate our 100th anniversary June 2,” said Col. Mark Shade, Fort Jackson’s deputy commander, to the group at the beginning of the tour. “Ap-proximately 5 million Service members have come through here to �� [��)��\�

Traditions of honor and respectBy VERAN HILLFort Jackson Leader

After pledging to serve, Service members are in-culcated with military customs and courtesies. One of many customs a Service member must master is learn-ing how, when and who to salute. The salute is a tradi-tion of showing honor and respect.

Fort Jackson is a training site for all U.S. Armed Forces, civilians and armed forces members from oth-er countries. With different ranks and traditions, there may be some variations when it comes to saluting.

Families take part in Valentine’s Day dance

Soldiers and Families with the 2nd Battalion, 39th Infantry Regiment took part in a Valentine’s Day dance Feb. 3 at the Fort Jackson Reserve Center. The event included a dance for drill sergeant mothers and fathers and their children.

Valentine’s Day came early this year for 2nd Battalion, 39th Infantry Regiment. On Feb. 3 The battalion commander, Lt. Col. Alex Duran, and the unit’s senior enlisted leader, Command Sgt. Maj. Michael Belcher, hosted a Father/Daughter, Mother/Son Valentine’s Dance at the Fort Jack-son Reserve Center.

This event was a way to show the children and Families of 2nd Battalion, 39th Infantry Regi-% �� -ognized and that they are important and special to the battalion and the Fort Jackson Community.

The Battalion Family Readiness Group de-voted a great effort making this event a success. The event included activities such as door prizes, kid’s games, and a delicious menu. However, nothing tops the moment when drill sergeants and their sons and daughters took off to the dance K��=��}�� (��Son Dance.

This dance was a great success for the battal-ion’s cadre and staff. Sons and daughters were afforded the opportunity to spend some much needed one-on-one time with their mother or father, and the Family’s resilience was built up making a stronger battalion ready for the next training cycle.

1898: SPANISH-AMERICAN WARBlack Soldiers, of the 9th and 10th Cavalry Regiments

and the 24th and 25th Infantry Regiments, fought in the Spanish-American War. The four regiments comprised 12 percent of the total force during the invasion of Cuba.

Many of these Soldiers were veterans of the Indian Wars and some were Civil War veterans. Another 2,000 served in the Navy — they comprised 7.6 percent of all sailors.

1898: 10TH CAVALRY REGIMENTThe 10th Cavalry Regiment — veterans of the Indian

campaigns — proved themselves in battle against the Spanish in Cuba, and later came to the rescue of a unit commanded by a future U.S. president.

The 10th Cavalry accompanied Theodore Roosevelt’s “Rough Riders” over rugged terrain and successfully en-gaged a Spanish force at Las Guasimas, June 24, 1898. A

week later, while advancing up San Juan Hill, the Rough Riders found themselves in great peril, surrounded on all sides by Spanish soldiers. The 10th Calvary came to the �� '� %'��{�� '�marched,” according to a reporter who witnessed the bat-tle. “Their aim was splendid,” he continued, “their cool-ness was superb, and their courage aroused the admiration of their comrades.”

After the battle, a Rough Rider said, “If it hadn’t been for the black cavalry, the Rough Riders would have been exterminated.”

1917-1918: WORLD WAR IIn 1917, the United States entered World War I. Despite

knowing that freedom to serve their country did not in it-self guarantee full participation in American society, thou-sands of black Americans answered the call to duty through

service in the Army.Among them was Dr. Louis Tompkins Wright, the son

of a man born into slavery, who graduated from Harvard University School of Medicine in 1915 with high honors. Z �*#*��)��%%�� %�� &��%'��;��He rose to the rank of lieutenant colonel during World War I.

Among his many pioneering efforts was the introduc-tion of the injection method of the smallpox vaccine. This method was eventually adopted by the Army as a medical �� &�� Z �*#*#��%� �� Q�physician appointed to the staff of a white hospital in New York. The Army operated under a policy of racial segrega-tion and blacks were commonly relegated to supply and labor jobs. There were, however, active black combat units that made notable contributions.

1917: HARLEM HELLFIGHTERSOn Dec. 27, 1917, the 369th Infantry Regiment became

The War Department initially sent the unit to Europe after a violent racial incident in Spartanburg, South Carolina, where the unit was planning to avenge the physical attack of their drum major, Noble Sissle.

“To me those activities are about Army readiness at the end of the day,” said Fort Jackson’s senior com-mander and avid golfer. “If we can convince more Soldiers and their Families they can be a part of all the outdoor activities … that’s a win for the Army team.

“It is about readiness, but it’s also about having a community here at Fort Jackson where Soldiers, their Families and civilians can thrive.”

Outdoor activities help improve “the body and the mind,” he added.

Fort Jackson is looking to use the iSportsman app to help those conducting outdoor activities to sign in and out without

having to go to range control. The installation is also looking at �� )��%�� and other improvements to outdoor activities on post.

During the town hall community members voiced various concerns and contrasted Fort Jackson to other installations such as Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

“People have brought up good stuff, and everyone has good ideas,” said Rod D. Celestaine, a recently retired command ser-geant major, and former senior enlisted advisor to the Garrison commander. “I just want to share that Fort Bragg has good things

going on, and Fort Benning (Georgia). We here just aren’t resourced that way.”

Celestaine added he was glad to see it moving forward because it had been talked about for a long time.

Johnson said he would like to see outdoor activi-ties become self-sustaining like the installation’s golf course.

“We are not shooting for second place,” Johnson told a group of interested Fort Jackson Soldiers and community members at a Sportsman’s Club Town

Hall. “We might end up in second place, but we are not shooting for second place.”

I am passionate about all the activities we have going on here, Johnson added.

“I have a responsibility here as the senior commander to try to make this community the best we can,” Johnson said.

Maj. Gen. John ‘Pete’ Johnson, Fort Jackson commander, speaks about the need to improve the installation’s out-door activities Feb. 16 at a town hall. During the town hall it was announced the post has started a Sportsman’s Advisory Council to look at creating a club to improve hunting, fishing, shooting, and cycling on Fort Jackson.

“Drill sergeants and other people work tremendous hours and they go out to hunt and there’s nothing to hunt,” said Lt. Bob White, Fort Jackson Game Warden.

For White, one of three Fort Jackson game war-dens, helping create a safe and productive atmosphere for Soldiers and community members is paramount. A Fort Jackson sportsman’s club should help increase the safety and experience of hunting by helping deer con-servation and education, White said.

Maj. Gen. John “Pete” Johnson, Fort Jackson and Army Training Center commander, held a town hall Feb. 16 to address ways the post can improve out-door activities including the creation of a Fort Jackson Sportsman’s Club.

Game wardens, like White, enforce federal, state, and local laws as well as Fort Jackson regulations. While “policing may be policing,” he said, police of-��{��Z��\

Z��|��)�� % ��'�licenses and to enforce bag limits.

“Fort Jackson hunting graded on a scale of one to 100 is poor in my opinion,” said White, who has more than 41 years’ experience in law enforcement. He joined the Fort Jackson community as a game warden in July, 2016.

Hunters on Fort Jackson used to harvest more than 200 deer a year, but now that number is in the 80s.

{��)��&��'��\��Deer numbers are down due to predators like coy-

otes and to improper conservation.He said “for coyotes, the main diet during fawn

season is fawns” while acknowledging the need to get

hunters to aim for older animals. “We need to educate hunters to get them to pass on young deer and look for older ones.”

Z�)�� {)��%��'��memories” and not by the size of deer antlers, White added.
