Police detectives recognized for three casesInvestigations included $250,000 embezzling schemeat laundry, theft of two five-ton dump trucks in JanuaryBy Peter Rejcek

A pair of Kwajalein Police Depart-ment investigators received U.S.Army kudos for their work on a stringof recent cases, including an em-bezzlement scheme believed to havecost the government over $250,000.

Invs. Yoshi Jorji Kemem andAmanda Leigh Broadwater were givenplaques of commendation from theU.S. Army Criminal InvestigationCommand during a brief ceremonylast month in front of the KwajaleinPolice Department. Police Chief TerryHardy presented the awards, alongwith certificates from the former pro-vost marshal, Maj. Derik Crotts.

�These are always the good mo-ments � when you can recognizesomebody like that,� Hardy said.

The cases included:� An embezzling scheme at the

post Laundry Facility, which mayhave resulted in a loss to the govern-ment of more than $250,000 over thelast 10 years.

�The individual involved was ap-parently stealing money,� Hardy said.The chief credited not only his inves-tigators, but also Raytheon auditorsfor uncovering the decade-long theft.

The identity of the individual hasnot been released, and the case isstill under investigation.

�It�s still an active investigation,�said Hardy, explaining the suspecthad been �skimming� money at thefacility for years before the allegedcrime was uncovered.

By Jim BennettAmericans will go to work to-

morrow morning, many drivingby government buildings not evenconsidering what the black flagflying from the pole means. Butfor veterans, former prisoners ofwar and families of POWs andthose still missing in action, Fri-day means much more.

�They are our comrades,� saidHarry Bry-son, postcommanderfor AmericanLegion Post44 on Kwaj-alein. �We�rethankful forthe ones wegot back,and we still wonder about a fewthat haven�t come back.�

Sept. 17 is POW/MIA Recogni-tion Day, and will be celebratedin the states tomorrow with avariety of ceremonies.

At Post 44, members recognizePOWs and MIAs during everymonthly meeting. There, thePOW/MIA flag is posted and anempty chair symbolically holds aplace at the meeting for the POWsand MIAs.

�It has to be traumatic for thefamilies,� Bryson added. �Killedin action is one thing. There�s afinality there. But POW or MIA, itcan be months or years before itcan be resolved.�

Stateside,the day will bemarked by the dedication of anew inscription on the Tomb ofthe Unknowns at Arlington Na-tional Cemetery. Air Force 1st Lt.Michael J. Blassie was identifiedlast year as the Vietnam War

� The untimely death of aMarshallese contract employee,Mawi Mawilong, 34, who drowned atKwaj on Dec. 26 of last year. Hisdeath has been ruled accidental andthe case is closed, according to Hardy.

�Anytime you have a death, ittakes a lot of work,� the chief ex-plained in regard to the length of theinvestigation.

Mawilong had been a fixed-wingmechanic in the Aviation Depart-ment at Kwajalein since January1990. His was one of three deathsinvestigated by the department thisyear. The other two cases, involvingtwo Americans in separate incidents,are still ongoing.

� Broadwater was also recognizedfor her work in an ongoing investiga-tion involving the theft of two five-tondump trucks in January. The indi-viduals who allegedly stole the twotrucks did about $10,000 in damageto government and private property.

Hardy said damage involved de-struction of the guard shack at thefuel pier and other nearby struc-

tures.�That was probably the biggest

cost right there,� he said, estimatingthe damage of the buildings at $5,000to $6,000. Sections of fence alongPerimeter Road to the south end ofthe island were also knocked down.Hardy said the investigation foundthe incident was alcohol-related.

�They�re lucky there wasn�t somesuper major destruction to some otherstuff, considering the sensitive na-ture of the equipment out here,� thechief noted.

That investigation is also continu-ing.

Also recognized Thursday was Lt.Derrick J. Lemmie for his work dur-ing a March 16 visit by U.S. Sen. TedStevens of Alaska and a host ofMarshallese dignitaries.

In part, the proclamation read,�The professionalism and skill exhib-ited while performing personal pro-tection surveillance for the Presidentand Cabinet Members of the Repub-lic of the Marshall Islands and visit-ing U.S. Congressional Members wasexemplary.�

unknown, disinterred, and reburiedin a family grave in St. Louis. Newforensic techniques hold the prom-ise that there will be no more �un-knowns,� and no remains have re-placed those of Blassie in the tomb.

Friday (stateside), however, theinscription, �Honoring and keepingfaith with America�s missingservicemembers, 1958-1975� will bededicated at the tomb.

President Bill Clinton will also signa proclamation commemorating theevent.

Furthermore, a recent federal lawhas established guidelines for thedisplay of the POW/MIA flag.

The flag is black with a white circlein the center and a silhouette of aprisoner behind barbed wire. Theletters �POW-MIA� are written abovethe silhouette. Below is printed thephrase, �You Are Not Forgotten.�

The flag is to be flown at the Capi-tol, White House, veterans memori-als, national cemeteries, numerousfederal offices, major military instal-lations, VA medical centers, and U.S.Post Offices on Armed Forces Day,Memorial Day, Flag Day, Indepen-

dence Day,N a t i o n a lPOW/MIADay, andV e t e r a n sDay.

ThoughBlassie�s remains were identified,many soldiers, sailors and airmenremain unaccounted for after recentwars, and efforts are being made tolocate them.

From the Korean War, relationswith North Korea in the 1990s haveallowed for the return of more than200 sets of remains in this decade.

More than 700 Department of De-fense staff under the Joint Task Force� Full Accounting are currentlyworking to find and identify the morethan 2,000 MIAs lost in SoutheastAsia alone. Task force members workin the region conducting field opera-tions and investigating cases. Since1973, the U.S. Army Central Identifi-cation Laboratory, Hawaii, (CILH) has

identified and returned 529 sets ofremains.

Much of the work is scientific.Assisting the CILH are the ArmedForces DNA Identification Labora-tory (AFDIL) and Air Force Life Sci-ence Equipment Laboratory (LSEL).

The AFDIL, for example, whichidentified Blassie�s remains, drawsDNA from skeletal remains and com-pares them to family tissue samples.Meanwhile, LSEL can examine air-craft wreckage and crew equipmentto provide additional identifying in-formation.

Story and photo by Barbara JohnsonMore than 50 island women filled

the Kabua Room to hear featuredspeaker Gary K. McMillen, com-mander USAKA/KMR, and to learnabout the Yokwe Yuk Women�s Club�spast contributions and plans for theupcoming year, Tuesday evening.

To begin the meeting, McMillenspoke to the group about the Ameri-can partnership with the Marshallesepeople and the significant impactUSAKA/KMR has on the Marshalleseeconomy.

Starting with a brief summary ofthe history of the United State�s as-sociation with the Republic of theMarshall Islands and the 1986 Com-pact of Free Association, which de-fines the special relationship betweenthe two countries, McMillen describedmany of the contributions Americamakes to the Marshalls.

These include the land leaseagreement with the RMI; Title X con-struction projects funded by the U.S.State Department; the Job Corps site,which has provided more than 1,300Marshallese students with jobs andeducational experience; the guest stu-dent program through whichMarshallese students attend schoolon Kwajalein; the employment of1,200 Marshallese workers in a widerange of positions; and payment ofthe Marshallese flat tax.

McMillen concluded with a de-scription of the contributions of manyvolunteer organizations and individu-als, and expressed his appreciationfor the YYWC�s part in these volun-teer efforts.

�The women�s club activities inMicronesia have an impact not justin Kwajalein, not just in theMarshalls, but throughout the Pa-cific area,� he said.

The club is not just about work,however. In describing many of theclub�s activities from last year,McMillen noted this group knowshow to have fun, while still accom-plishing its goals as a social, culturaland service organization.

Gerri Jackson, YYWC president,then introduced members of theYYWC board for this year. Each boardmember described her committee�sgoals and plans and offered many

opportunities formember participa-tion.

Lesley Gandy,first vice president,previewed futuremeetings, includinga muumuu-makingdemonstration andpotluck dinner inOctober; a buncogame in November;and the holiday cul-tural exchange andtour of homes in De-cember.

Elaine Holland,second vice presi-dent, describedsome of the newfund-raising and so-cial events her committee anticipatesthis year, including an unaccompa-nied women�s Thanksgiving dinner;a swap meet in January; and aValentine�s sweetheart ball.

Other new officers are DonnaHowell, secretary; Elaine McMahon,treasurer; and Pam McMillen, mem-ber-at-large.

The executive board also includesthese committee chairwomen: PennyStoddard, Micronesian HandicraftShop; Roxanna González-Ball andNancy Bradshaw, Bargain Bazaar;Debbie Goodwin, Education and As-sistance; Evenruth Malolo, CulturalExchange; Grace Fogarty, ChristmasDrop; Elaine McMahon, Holiday Cul-tural Exchange; and BrigitteKennedy, Hospitality/Membership.

The YYWC is one of the oldestorganizations on island, havingserved the community since the early1950s. The club�s mission statementis, in part:

�The purpose of the YYWC is tostimulate a vital sense of cooperativecommunity living; to support activi-ties that promote good morale andcontribute to the general welfare ofboth Kwajalein Atoll and Micronesia;to foster friendships among thewomen of Kwajalein Atoll; and to pro-mote cultural enrichment experi-ences.�

Last year, the YYWC donated morethan $28,000 for educational andassistance projects throughout

Micronesia. The club also awardsscholarships to graduating seniorsfrom Kwajalein High School, makesdonations to the Grace SherwoodLibrary, and helps prepare Christ-mas gift bags each year to deliver tothe outer islands.

Additionally, the club contributedto the funds that established theMarshallese Cultural Center andsponsors a number of cultural ex-change events with Marshallesewomen.

All Kwaj and Roi women are eli-gible for membership in the YYWC; itis not necessary to be invited by amember. Prospective members arewelcome to attend a meeting or twobefore joining. Meetings are held thesecond Tuesday of each month, Sep-tember through May, usually in theevening. An annual membership feeof $10 is due this month for new andreturning members.

Jackson concluded the meetingby encouraging new and returningmembers to sign up for one of themany committees or activities de-scribed.

�This is not a one-person mission.We can�t reach out to theMicronesians and each other with-out the energy and dynamism of eachof you here, along with some peoplewho aren�t here,� she said.

Story and photo by Barbara JohnsonWhen Ruby Butterworth and her

husband, Mark, each heard sepa-rately about jobs in Kwajalein withinthe same week, they knew a move toKwaj was meant to be.

Butterworth, new site manager ofKwajalein�s Job Corps Center, ar-rived recently from the Job Corpssite at Bellingham, Wash., where shewas a reading teacher and then aca-demic manager for the past sevenyears. Her husband, a skipper, willjoin her in a month or so.

Butterworth has worked both ineducation and industry. She taughtin public schools for several years,was a sailmaker, and worked for asign company in design and produc-tion in Bellingham.

�The whole purpose of Job Corpsis to get students jobs,� saidButterworth, explaining a back-ground in industry and hiring helpsto understand and then communi-

a job interview.�Communication skills and speak-

ing up are critical,� she added.The Job Corps program is an edu-

cation and training program for low-income young adults who need jobskills. Students stay inthe Kwaj pro-gram three to four months, with theprimary goal of getting English andreading skills up to a level to go to theprogram in Hawaii.

Last Friday, 10 students gradu-ated from the Kwaj program. They leftby plane the next day for Hawaii,where the program lasts up to twoyears � three if the student is in thecollege program.

It�s a big event in their lives, leav-ing their families and going on toHawaii, according to Butterworth.

The Kwajalein Job Corps site isunique in several ways within theprogram.

It�s the smallest Job Corps pro-gram in the world: It currently has 16students, with the maximum of 36expected within a month. Also, it isthe only center outside of the UnitedStates and the only one to whichstudents commute by boat.

Since it opened in the late 1980s,Job Corps has provided more than1,300 young men and women withjob and educational experience.

Among the goals outlined byButterworth were improving and up-dating the ESL (English as a SecondLanguage) curriculum. New researchand materials have recently becomeavailable, she explained. Second,Butterworth said she would like tocontinue expanding community con-tacts.

As for immediate projects,Butterworth said she recently helpedplant 50 new plants around the JobCorps building, and wants to renewthe turtle feeding program at thenearby turtle pond.

Butterworth said she really likesKwaj, especially the lack of trafficand commuting stress, but is anx-ious for her husband to join her.

Boating was one of the couple�sfavorite pastimes in Washington,where they took their cruiser throughthe intercoastal waters, andButterworth said they plan to do a lotof sailing after he arrives.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DRINKING WATERElevated Lead Levels on Meck Island

All U.S. Army drinking water systems on Kwajalein Atoll are regularly tested forlead at various locations in the distribution system. Drinking water may pick uplead from lead and brass pipes and plumbing fixtures as it travels from thetreatment plant to the point of use. At the treatment plant, the water does notcontain lead, but it may pick up lead as it travels through piping and fixtures withinbuildings. Thirteen samples were taken on Meck Island during July, and threecontained lead in excess of 15 micrograms per liter (µ/L), which is above the EPA�Action Level� for drinking water. This does not mean the water is unfit for drinking,the EPA sets its Action Level based on chronic (lifetime) consumption of watercontaining trace amounts of lead. As a result of this Action Level, the UtilitiesDepartment has initiated corrosion control measures on Meck Island. Thesemeasures help prevent lead in the pipes from dissolving into the water.

You can take the following steps to reduce your exposure to lead:�Flush your water faucet for 15�30 seconds before using it for drinking or cooking,

particularly after the water has been standing in the pipes for more than eighthours, such as overnight. This flushes any standing lead from the pipes.

�Don�t use hot tap water for cooking; instead, heat cold tap water on a stove. Leaddissolves more easily in hot water.

Infants and children who drink water containing lead in excess of the Action Levelcould experience delays in their physical or mental development. Children couldshow slight deficits in attention span and learning abilities. Adults who drink watercontaining lead levels above the Action Level over the period of many years coulddevelop kidney problems, high blood pressure, or may be at an increased risk ofgetting cancer.

This is not an emergency. If it had been, you would have been notified immediately.This notice does not apply to the water systems on Kwajalein, Roi-Namur, andEnnylabegan. For more information, contact the Meck Water Treatment Plant, 57251;the Kwajalein Water Treatment Plant, 52155; or the RSE Environmental Office,53225.

It’s more than pizza and french fries for these Kwajalein High School French studentsBy Bob Fore

For six young ladies from BarbaraBicanich�s Kwajalein High SchoolFrench class, the opportunity to ex-perience a new culture came in theform of a nine-day tour this summerin Italy and France.

Bicanich met up with studentsJaime Yelvington, Kylie Main, KatieGibson, Heather Cornell, TracyKeyser and Katie DeLong in Bostonon June 29 for the flight to Rome.

On arrival, they joined with othertraveling companions who wouldshare their tour, including anothergroup of students from a high schoolin South Carolina and a women�sgroup from upstate New York. A Bos-ton-based travel agency arranged thetour for the 38 people in the group.

�The Kwaj kids are good travel-lers,� said Bicanich. �In fact theywere better at it than some of theadults. They are so used to travelingthat they would take it all in stride ifthere was a delay.�

Rome was the first stop. The stu-dents had the opportunity to visit anumber of historic locations. At theColiseum they were able to see theruins of the ancient amphitheater,which was the setting for combatinggladiators and numerous other bloodsports for which the Roman Empirewas well known.

Members of the group broke upinto smaller groups to visit other

sites of note, including the SistineChapel, whose ceiling frescoes werepainted by Michelangelo, as well asthe catacombs � the burial vaultsand galleries that served as the seatof the ancient Christian religion.

�I really liked the catacombs,� saidCornell. �My hope is to be an archae-ologist. Someday I would like to liveand work in Rome, and, oh the icecream. I am only 15 and am experi-encing so much at an early age.�

In Florence, the group viewed thedowntown area as well as the mu-seum where Michelangelo�s famous�David� is located.

Other cities visited included Pisa,

as well as the French cities of Eze andNice and the principality of Monaco.

The group ended up in Paris wherethey visited the Eiffel Tower, the Lou-vre and Notre Dame, as well as doingsome shopping and checking out thesidewalk cafes.

�We picked really good places; Iliked Nice and Rome,� said DeLong.�Nice had a great atmosphere, whileRome was more historical in content.�

�It is important for kids to seeother cultures and practice their lan-guage skills,� said Bicanich. �Someeven picked up simple phrases inItalian. This has been an experiencethat will last a lifetime.�

Fishing tourney brings in the big fun and fishBy Jim Bennett

With 15 minutes to go in the Kwa-jalein Sportfishing Club Labor Daytournament, Jim Peay and crewhooked the big one � a 209½-poundblack marlin.They had to report backto the Small Boat Marina or take adisqualification.

�We thought about it and it wasbetter to take the DQ and bring it in,�Peay said. �We have a habit of doingthis.�

In fact, in Peay�s last tournamenthe hooked a 135-pound blue marlinshortly before the return time. Theycalled in their catch over the radioand reported in time for that tourna-ment. This tournament didn�t allowfor call-ins at the last minute, soPeay and crew � Kelly Anderson,Terry Yeary, and Flynn Gideon �brought in the big fish.

It was the largest unofficial catchof the tournament, which featuredeight fish categories and awards forboth the smallest and largest fish ineach as well as total aggregate weight,

said Lamar Hina, who organized theevent.

Two crews tied for top honorsamong the 15 boats and crews. RogerWellsandt led the crew of ChristineFox, George Kaiwi, Gabby Ellamar,and John Jurgenson. Danny Vinluancaptained the crew of Susan Sasano,Herb Lee, John Sergave, and DannyKaiminaauo.

Six crews received �skunk awards�having caught nothing.

The tournament was capped by apot-luck supper and awards cer-emony. Awards included everythingfrom candles to gift certificates, tomulti-purpose tools, lures, clocks,watches and a bicycle.

�The main thing is everyone had agood time,� Hina said.

ing to Kwaj with a three-day showingof Letters from the Front: WWII, a Broad-way-style production that tells thestory of the home front in 1945through actual war correspondence.

The show stars Della Cole asKatharine Hartgrove, �the flinty butb i g - h e a r t e dPulitzer Prizewinning author�and NealMatthews, whoplays JohnnyChastain, the�rascally butcharming sitcomstar who is theman in her life.�

Performan-ces are sched-uled nightly at 7p.m., Oct. 1-3, atthe RichardsonTheater.

With somethree tons ofequipment intow, Letters is probably one of thebiggest Department of Defense showsto come to the island, according toSteve Snider, superintendent of en-tertainment services.

�This is a big show for Kwaj, forwhat Kwaj can offer in terms of anarena,� Snider said. �Generally, theUSO shows are comedians.�

Originally set in the Desert Stormmilieu in 1990, the production

headed to Kwaj time travels back toWorld War II. For the revamped edi-tion, new sets and props were cre-ated, with all the costumes beingmade from scratch.

�The folks in your areas who havebeen hungering for a truly remark-able theater experience will be quitefilled by this production,� said ArtConn, entertainment coordinator for

the Army in Ko-rea.

�The set iscleverly designedand looks greaton the stage,� headded.

The 1999 Pa-cific Tour is thep r o d u c t i o n � sthird interna-tional tour. Be-sides KwajaleinAtoll, the showwill play in Ko-rea, Japan,S i n g a p o r e ,Guam, Okinawa,Diego Garcia andJohnston Atoll.

By the completion of this tour, theproduction will have visited over 150military installations in 38 statesacross America, and 10 differentcountries since 1992.

�It obvious from the way the audi-ence responds to us, this play makesthem feel terrific,� said producerMarsha Roberts.

The show is for families, but is notrecommended for young children.
