In Biblical times, a shepherd could be related to someone who watched over sheep. He made sure they had water to drink and food to eat. The shepherd was overly concerned about the sheep’s well being.

Flu CampaignTo expedite the delivery of flu shots

to Fort Lee’s active duty personnel, Kenner Army Health Clinic will sched-ule multiple weekday and weekend clinics starting in September. Two goals are to maximize resources and mini-mize loss of instructional time for ad-vanced individual training students.

Kenner is attempting to contact key military organizations to coordinate clinic times since the Department of Defense requires at least 90 percent of all active duty Soldiers be vaccinated before Dec. 17. Units that have not been contacted can make arrangements through the following people: Sgt. 1st Class Sonya Wood, (804) 737-9324 or [email protected]; Sgt. Laura Gonzales at 734-9050 or [email protected]; and Lt. Col. Younghee Song at 734-9344 or [email protected].

Authorized civilian beneficiaries may obtain flu shots at Kenner during regular immunization clinic hours.

will be Sept. 15. Registration and check-in will begin at 8:30 a.m. with the event starting at 10 a.m.

There will be 1-mile and 5-mile routes for runners and walkers as well as the option of walking the track at Williams Stadium.

The total number of miles that par-ticipants run, walk or roll in honor of service members who have made the ultimate sacrifice will be reported to the national initiative.

To register, visit http://leemwr.com/Comm/ACS/com_acs_acs.htm. Units may register by calling (804) 734-6446.

NEWS BRIEFS

Harney Takes ALU Charge

Col. Robert A. “Rick” Harney, right, accepts the Army Logistics University guidon from ALU President John E. Hall during an assump-tion of responsibility ceremony Tuesday at the university. Harney was previously assigned to the U.S. Army Quartermaster School.

by Kimberly K. FritzFamily/Community Life Reporter

The Army Logistics University wel-comed a new commandant Tuesday at a ceremony held in the university’s multi-purpose room.

Col. Robert A. “Rick” Harney assumed responsibility of the massive learning cen-ter in front of his Family and many sup-porters.

Ensuring the military mind is kept active won’t be a problem for this quartermaster. His previous two assignments were within the U.S. Army Quartermaster School, first in the Office of the QM General and then as the assistant commandant.

John E. Hall, ALU president, said when looking for a commandant Harney’s career path is a good template.

“He brings an understanding of the Training and Doctrine Command vision and an understanding of the needs of the commandants we support,” Hall said. “He’s going to make us a better team than we already are.”

Hall spoke of the challenges Harney may face in his tenure as ALU comman-dant.

“ALU is under tremendous scrutiny

from the highest levels of the Department of the Army,” Hall said. “Not because we’ve done something wrong but the ex-act opposite.”

Hall said that TRADOC Commander Gen. Robert W. Cone wants Army schools and training centers to mimic the model ALU leaders created when the school opened in 2009.

“We’ve gained tremendous efficien-cies,” he said. “What we still haven’t gained yet is the standardization through consolidation.”

Hall said that task will be Harney’s charge as commandant.

During his speech, Harney said he was honored and humbled by his new position. He thanked his Family, which included ex-tended members who traveled from North Carolina to celebrate the day.

“I look forward to this extremely impor-tant mission,” Harney said. “You have my total commitment of excellence in all we do.”

Then, paraphrasing Gen. Maxwell Taylor, Harney said, “‘I view my posi-tion of leadership as one of servitude to Soldiers and their Families’ – I feel the same way. I look forward to serving with you all.”

Chief Warrant Officer 4 William McClain is one of the millions of Americans impacted by Alzheimer’s.

“I lost my grandmother to the disease about 10 years ago,” said the Transportation School instructor/writer. “Also, my administrative assistant’s father was recently diagnosed with the disease so it’s close to our heart, and we want to give back to our community.”

In the spirit of giving something back, McClain has helped to organize the Donate2Walk2 charity event scheduled for Wednesday, 6:30 a.m., at the Golf Company parking lot, building 3004 on B Avenue.

Sponsored by the Trans. School and the Greater Richmond Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association, the event’s goal is to raise funds to help fight

Alzheimer’s and shed some light on the disease itself, said McClain.

Alzheimer’s, named for the German neuropathologist Alois Alzheimer, is a common form of dementia that gen-erally affects those 65 years of age and older, although it can strike much earlier. Early symptons include the inability to remember recent events. As it progresses, Alzheimer patients suffer from confusion, irritability, ag-gression and long-term memory loss. There is no cure and patients typically die from the disease.

According to the National Institute on Aging, more than 5 million Americans suffer from Alzheimer’s.

McClain, a native of North Carolina, said he saw firsthand the devastating nature of Alzheimer’s. “I didn’t get to see my grandmother at the tail end of the disease,” he recalled, “ but the part I did see was very bad.

“Knowing that there isn’t a cure 10 years from the day

it happened, I’m hoping this walk will help us come up with a cure and help people to become aware.”

Chief Warrant Officer Jonathan Waddy, the course man-ager/ transportation automation branch chief, and one of the organizers, further emphasized the awareness aspect.

“It will be an outstanding event,” he said. “We want to get people out there to get them to understand what this disease is.”

Col. Nancy J. Grandy, assistant commandant, Trans. School, and Sherry Peterson, chief executive officer, GRCAA, are scheduled to be the guest speakers.

The organizers suggest that each participant donate $2, and in the spirit of finding a cure, walk a two-mile, pre-determined distance.

Registration and donations are scheduled for 6-6:30 a.m., and the walk begins at 6:45 a.m.

For more details, call (804) 765-1923 or 765-1938.

Transporter Event to Fight Alzheimer’s

The guest speaker, retired Col. Emit Knight, was a member of one of the first American units to step foot in Vietnam, arriving with the 8th Trans. Helicopter Co. in December 1961. He recounted his time there, noting the collective contributions of those who survived and who didn’t. He was careful to keep the tone light, combin-ing factual storytelling with bits of humor.

“Our orders were classified secret,” he recalled when the unit was notified of its impending assignment. “They essentially

read, ‘to proceed to an overseas destina-tion to participate in an exercise in excess of 30 days.” The crowd responded with a chuckle. He continued – “Our first piece of it lasted a year, and the exercise turned out to be a war that lasted 10 more years.”

The Vietnam War officially ended in 1975, and it would be years before there was a collective reckoning of the service and sacrifice of those who served. Jack Cole, a transporter assigned to the 444th Trans. Co., 27th Trans. Bn, 8th Trans.

Grp. during the war, said the ap-preciation for his service came slowly and unpredictably.

“It was 22 years (after the war) and a lady came up to me in a store,” said the Grand Rapids, Mich. native. “I don’t even know how she knew I was a veteran; she said, ‘Thank you for your service.’ It shocked me so bad I didn’t know what to say to her.

“Now, when we march in a parade, Army units will let the Vietnam vets march ahead of them,” he continued. “It shows respect plus the guys nowadays are get-ting treated well because of what we got. Hey, they deserve it, and we’re getting our

recognition now. God bless America.”Cole, Kritzer and most of the Vietnam

veterans at the event attended The Gathering, a reunion of Vietnam-era trans-porters that held its 10th annual event in Prince George County earlier in the week.

President Barack Obama proclaimed May 28, 2012 - Nov.11, 2025 to be a commemorative era in which Americans acknowledge the Vietnam War’s the 50th Anniversary and recognize and honor the more than 3 million men and women who served in the war, the more than 58,000 who died and the more than 1,600 who are still missing.

R i c h m o n d International Raceway will close its 2012 sea-son with a Nationwide Series event on Sept. 7 and a Federated Auto Parts 400 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Race on Sept. 8 at its 600 E. Laburnum Ave. track facility.

The much-anticipated Sprint Cup race is a favorite for NASCAR fans because it’s the last opportunity for drivers to make the top 12 and become eligible to com-pete in the championship. Another attrac-

tive feature of both end-of-season races is the opening c e r e m o n i e s that always include a trib-ute to the U.S. Armed Forces.

A joint service color guard from Fort Lee is among the participants. All of the mem-bers this year are from the Joint Culinary Center of Excellence and the color guard will be led by Master Sgt. Michael Isaza.

In addition to seeing some of the top driv-

ers in NASCAR glide around the track at speeds of more than 200 mph, Richmond Raceway also offers many other family friendly attractions including The Midway that’s near the front stretch grandstands. The area includes vendors, free interactive dis-plays, games, giveaways, music and more.

Standard ticket prices start at $30 for the Nationwide Series Race and $45 for the Sprint Cup Series Race. Richmond Raceway offers discounted tickets for mil-itary service members and their Families. For additional information about reduced price admission, visit www.rir.com/salute or call (804) 228-7692.

Fans can bring their own food and bev-erages into the grandstands at Richmond International Raceway. Coolers must be soft-sided and can measure up to only 14 x 14 x 14 inches. Coolers with telescoping handles and wheels are not permitted.

Parking is free at the raceway and all lots open at 7 a.m. Keep in mind that vehicle and foot traffic will increase throughout the day, so visitors who arrive early will not only avoid the heaviest congestion but also have more opportunities to check out the raceway’s many attractions and famil-iarize themselves with seat locations, For additional information, visit www.rir.com.

Name: Teresa J. GuyWhere she works: Housing Services Office Job Title: Housing management specialist. Earlier in her career she was a housing clerk and worked in the Equal Employment Opportunity office.Time in Service: 26 years of government service (22 at Fort Lee). She is also an Army spouse. What does your work entail? “We work with Families when they first arrive at the installation. We as-

ARMY CIVILIANS sist them with finding a place to stay. We assist military members when they can’t get on-post Family Housing; we help them look for housing in the surrounding areas.” How does your work impact the installation? “The first things a military member wants to do is get their Family settled. Until they have a place to call home it makes it difficult to be mission-focused.”What does it mean to you to be a civilian em-ployee? “I’m proud to be an American for one thing and being able to help military Families learn about the community and about military life. I feel like I can offer help and a voice of wisdom because I’ve lived it, too.”What is most demanding about your job? “I wouldn’t use the word demanding to describe my work. I can’t say that anything is demanding here. It is an enjoy-able experience working with people. I like meeting the Families who come here. I’m helping them.” What do you like most about your job? “I enjoy working with people and meeting the Families.”What do you expect from your leaders? “My supervisor is a very good boss. She’s very knowledge-able. She treats us all the same. We learn from each other, and we are a strong team. We work well together. That’s what I expect, and we have it so I am satisfied.” How do you define a successful employee? “One who can accomplish the daily routine, is a role model for others, and one who gets awards for his or her work.”

How do you define success? “If my Family isn’t doing well, then I’m not a success. We are our children’s role model, and if we don’t set the example, they won’t learn. I’ve always encouraged my children.”What is one thing you cannot live without? “First and foremost, God in my life.” What are your hobbies? “I read a lot. I belong to a book club, and I like to shop.

Everyone knows drunk driving is illegal and hazardous for the person behind the wheel, but what about the danger an im-paired driver poses to others riding in the same vehicle? In many off-duty accidents, service members have lost their lives as passengers in cars driven by drunk drivers.

One of the most widely known safety campaigns – “Don’t Drink and Drive” – has been reinforced throughout every level of the military. Soldiers, Family members and civilian personnel are urged not to drive after drinking and have been warned of the potential consequences of driving under the influence of alcohol.

OK, drunk driving – bad, got it. But a message of equal importance is that per-

Drinking, Most Activities Don’t Mix

and the Baymont Inn and Suites as well as the Army and Air Force Exchange Service, received similar certificates that recog-nized their contributions to the recent 23rd QM Brigade ball. In addition to funding, the businesses provided door prizes for partici-pating Soldiers.

forming just about any activity while im-paired is also dangerous and can result in injury or death.

Pedestrians have been hit by cars when they wandered into the road or attempted to cross traffic while drunk. Some were hit and killed by trains while walking on the tracks. Sounds pretty impossible to most of us as trains are big and loud, but it has happened 12 times since 1998, with three of those deaths occurring during the past year. Of all 12 pedestrian/train collisions, only two were confirmed not to have in-volved alcohol.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, roughly half of all pedestrians, ages 21-44, who were killed in traffic accidents in 2008 had a blood alcohol content of 0.08 or higher.

You might wonder how so many people

manage to get hit by cars or, worse yet, a big and noisy train. The answer lies in the effects of alcohol – diminished coordina-tion and balance plus impaired attention and judgment. These impairments contrib-ute to many types of accidental injuries – motor vehicle and pedestrian accidents, as well as falls, drowning and burns. Most of the people killed during pedestrian activi-ties, who had not been drinking, were ac-tually killed when they had car trouble or stopped to help someone on the road.

Alcohol is the most frequently abused drug throughout the world and related in-juries are a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Alcohol intoxication, common in both social drinkers and alcoholics, pro-foundly impairs cognitive function and motor skills.

Ironically, many people feel a sense of

mastery while they are drunk, leading them to believe that they can do anything as well as, if not better than, anyone else. This is evidenced in a number of accidents where people decided to try balcony climbing or hanging out of barracks’ windows while under the influence of alcohol. Many of these accidents did not have happy end-ings.

Since fiscal 1999, 32 Soldiers have died from off-duty falls. Only eight of these Soldiers were confirmed not to be un-der the influence. Data from the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control also show that excessive alcohol consump-tion is a significant factor in accidental deaths from falls in the civilian sector.

The NCIPC reports alcohol is involved

in 40-50 percent of drown-ing deaths among young males. In addition, alcohol use is involved in about 50 percent of all deaths associ-ated with water recreation, such as boating. Seventy-five Soldiers have drowned in swimming, boating, fish-ing and personal watercraft accidents over the last de-cade. Ninety-two percent of them were males and 75 percent were under the age of 30. In those cases where substance use was exam-ined, 42 percent involved the use of alcohol.

Alcohol can impair our ability to do many things. That is why all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico impose a BAC limit of below 0.08 for driving. In addi-tion, most states impose a BAC limit of either 0.08 or 0.10 or lower for boat-ing, and all states have boating-under-the-influ-ence laws.

If you see a battle buddy about to misstep and possi-bly cause harm to him/her-self or others, intervene. It usually doesn’t take much to influence him or her to do the right thing. If you drink, take a cab. If you drink, don’t go swimming. If you go boating, wear a life jacket.

If you have a particu-larly argumentative friend who insists on acting stu-pid, call the police. It’s better to have a ticked-off friend with a public intoxi-cation ticket than to wake up the next morning, hung over, to find out that your friend is now a statistic in a database. Watching out for your buddies, even when you aren’t on duty, is still part of the job description of “friend.”

A County Where C

Chesteby Kathryn C. WeigelProduction Assistant

Chesterfield County may not share a common boundary with its neighbor Fort Lee, but there are many similarities in the people department. “Historically, a fairly significant number of

employees, both uniformed and civilian, from Fort Lee have found homes in the county and take advantage of the qual-ity of life we offer here,” said James J. L. “Jay” Stegmaier, county administrator. “A fair number of individuals who are not from central Virginia have come through Fort Lee during their various tours and liked Chesterfield County enough to come back when they retired.”

The county’s roots are military, too. When English set-tlers came in 1611 to what is now Chesterfield County, they established a fortified town, Henricus. The men stood guard and defended the neck of land that protruded into the James River. It was the second successful settlement in the New World and boasted both a hospital and a university, among other amenities, when the town was destroyed in a 1622 Indian raid.

Today, military and Department of Defense employ-ees choose to live in Chesterfield for a number of reasons. “We have, for the last five years, been named by Colin Powell’s America’s Promise Alliance as one of the 100 Best Communities in America for Young People,” said Board of Supervisors Chairman Daniel A. Gecker.

“The county also has the ‘sixth best suburb in America’ (Midlothian) and is one of a handful of American localities with a triple A bond rating because of its sound fiscal man-agement,” said Gecker. He also points to the lowest crime rate in the area. “Chesterfield is, quite simply, the kind of community families want. We have excellent schools, safe streets, a variety of shopping and dining choices, and an en-viable quality of life.”

Adding to those attributes – and highly favored by its 316,000 residents – are 40-plus public parks and athletic facilities with 300 soccer, softball,

baseball and football fields. County recreational areas in-clude nearly 3,800 acres of green space. Pocahontas State Park is also in the county. The James and Appomattox give Chesterfield more than 90 miles of river front-age. The Greater Richmond Aquatics Partnership opened this past spring in the county, adding several pools and a fitness center to its already impressive line-up of recre-ational options.

“In short,” said Gecker, “Chesterfield is perfect. … I can’t think of a place in the United States I’d rather be.” He cited willing taxpay-ers as another measure of Chesterfield’s merit. “The vast majority of our com-munity is willing to invest dollars in the county as long

as they are convinced (the money is) spent wisely,” Gecker said.

Stegmaier said the county’s “status as the lowest-cost, full-service local government in Virginia” is another plus. “It’s simply a great place to be, and

yet living here costs less than living in many communities with fewer amenities and opportunities.”

The strength of the relationship between the county and the installation also lies in the work of regional partners. The civilian governments and the Crater Planning District Commission “came together and worked very hard in order to preserve and strengthen the fort’s position with the defense establishment” during the process that culminated in the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure decision, said Stegmaier.

Meadowville Technology Park in the eastern portion of the county “is a tremen-dous asset to both the county and the installation,” said Stegmaier. “The area around Meadowville is expanding

both commercially and residentially, providing increased shopping, housing and employment opportunities for the Fort Lee community.” Meadowville is in the county’s Bermuda District off Route 10 near Interstate 295 and is a major development focus for the county.

The world’s leading hummus-maker, for example, is adding a research facility to its production facility in Meadowville where Amazon will open a million-square-foot fulfillment center in the near future. Northrop Grumman and Capital One are among other companies with operations in the area.

Home to chemical and other industries as well as an array of shopping centers and malls today, Chesterfield once mined coal commercially.

French Huguenot settlers discovered coal in the Midlothian area about 1701, and mining became a commercial venture about 1730. The coal fueled production of colonial cannons for the Revolutionary War. It also spurred development of early transportation improvements for roads and railroads.

Currently, the county is moving toward Chesterfield 2035, a new comprehensive plan. After input from a cross-departmental team of county employees, the Planning Commission held a number of work sessions in preparation for its upcoming Sept. 10 public hearing on the document. The plan, when adopted by the Board of Supervisors, will set long-range goals for the county in areas such as eco-nomic development, housing, transportation, revitalization, historical and cultural resources, and the environment.

Although the county is carefully considering its future,

erfield

it is also preserving its past. Gecker considers Henricus Historical Park the county’s best-kept secret, and it was vot-ed Best Park by readers of Richmond.com earlier this year. The park is a living history museum operated as a non-profit organization by the Henricus Foundation and the counties of Chesterfield and Henrico.

“Henricus is a part of American history,” Gecker said, and it started the county tradition of taking care of its residents – the first chartered college there educated both colonists and Indians. It was at Henricus, he added, that private property rights were first implemented in North America. Tobacco was first cultivated commercially there as well.

Pocahontas spent some time at Henricus as a pris-oner of the English and converted to Christianity there. Despite her friendliness toward the colonists,

the town was destroyed by marauding Indians in 1622. A dozen colonial structures have been re-created and are used to teach visitors about life on the site from the time before English settlers ar-rived through the Civil War and beyond. The park offers discounted admission to ac-tive duty and retired military members and their Families.

Near Henricus is the Dutch Gap Conservation Area. More than 810 acres

of natural habitat welcome blue herons that have established a rookery there. Bald eagles and ospreys also nest there. Kayakers and canoeists often explore this area of the James River.

Chesterfield also is the site of the nation’s oldest land grant institution of higher learning – Virginia State University in the Ettrick area. John Tyler

Community College has two campuses in the county. Also part of the county’s infrastructure are its private hospitals. Chippenham and Johnston-Willis Hospitals are owned by HCA while the county’s newest, St. Francis Hospital, is a Bon Secours Facility. The Capital Area Health Network plans to open a community health center in the Bermuda District later this year.

Chesterfield, which houses the Defense Logistics Agency - Richmond in the Bellwood area, shows its appreciation

to the military by provid-ing additional support to its employees who serve in National Guard and Reserve units. “We go well beyond the basic provision of preserving their jobs for when they come back,” said Stegmaier. When citizen Soldiers are called up and deployed, the county also pays the employees any dif-ferential in salary while they

Indian women performed such tasks for hun-dreds of years before English settlers led by Sir Thomas Dale established the town of Henricus in 1611. Henricus, which had the New World’s first hospital and first college, was the second suc-cessful English settlement. (ABOVE) The 1917 courthouse is decked out for Memorial Day.

are on active duty. This is done to ease the financial burden of separation on the Families, said Stegmaier. The county’s expanded support program has been recognized by the sec-retary of defense and others.

The county supports veterans in other ways. The Board of Supervisors has approved tax-relief policies for military veterans with 100 percent disability. Tom Winfree, a county resident and Village Bank president, started a non-profit or-ganization, Families of the Wounded Fund Inc. It makes it possible for Family members to have extended stays with military members who are in rehabilitation at the Hunter Holmes McGuire Veterans Administration Medical Center for spinal cord and brain injuries.

Chesterfield’s connection with Fort Lee will remain strong. “The growth of Fort Lee has been very positive for the region,” said Stegmaier. He noted

BRAC has helped stabilize the county during a time of eco-nomic downturn and give it positive real estate news this year. “To the extent that people move here, we have to pro-vide the quality schools and other services to support them. Overall, it seems clear (Fort Lee’s expansion) has been a positive impact.”
