Jefrey Davis. According to Mothers Against Drunk Driving, a person is injured in a drunk driving crash every two minutes. And the rate of drunk driving is highest among 21 to 25 year olds. Davis, 4th Space Operations Squadron and Front Range Airmen Against Drunk Driving president, wants to combat this statistic with education and reminding members of the resources available through A2D2. “We provide a safe ride home for any military member, retiree, Guard, Reserve or military contractor for Schriever and Peterson Air Force Bases and Cheyenne Mountain Air Force Station,” said Davis. “But we also want to be the last resort.” He said it’s frustrating to hear about any driving under the influence cases occurring, but especially with Airmen. “I always think to myself we had x amount of volunteers that night,” Davis said.

The Colorado Tracking Station, call sign PIKE, began its history in the 1980s. Located on Schriever Air Force Base, Colorado, PIKE sat on a semi-arid mountain plateau at an altitude of more than 6,100 feet. Until the construction of PIKE, all remote tracking stations were near coastlines or on islands, making them vulnerable to jamming. PIKE was also unique in that its communication systems were hard-wired into the control node at Schriever AFB, providing additional security. PIKE was built by Ford Aerospace and was the first tracking station built as an automated remote tracking station. Supporting both polar and equatorial orbiting satellites, the Colorado Tracking Station played an important role in AFSCN operations and until 1996, when its operating hours were reduced, was among the busiest sites in the network. During the next several months, the 50th Space Wing History office will publish a series of articles to highlight the history of the AFSCN. A brief history of the AFSCN — Part I Human desire to reach the stars is as old as civilization itself.

Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs WASHINGTON CSMNG — Often called one of the “invisible wounds of war,” traumatic brain injury is the result of a blow or jolt to the head that disrupts the normal function of the brain. Anyone can suffer a TBI, it can CSMNG happen on the sports field, in your home, or on the job. During March, the Military Health System is focusing its talent and efforts on the issue of TBI. We will provide tools and resources to educate service members, their families, retirees and Defense Department civilians about the prevention and treatment of TBI, while highlighting ongoing MHS research and breakthroughs. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, each year 1.7 million people are diagnosed with a brain injury. The most common form of TBI, even for the military, is mild TBI (also referred to as a concussion) and the vast majority occur at home. The Defense and Veterans Brain Injury Center reported that from 2000 to 2014 more than 313,000 service members were diagnosed with TBI, and most of these were mild. MHS research has produced several breakthroughs that improve the lives of our patients, beneficiaries, and all Americans who sustain TBIs. Our work is even taking us back to college to examine the impact of TBIs on athletes. The NCAA and the DOD are currently sponsoring the “Mind Matters Challenge,” a landmark initiative to enhance COLORADO SPRINGS MILITARY NEWSPAPER GROUP COLORADO SPRINGS MILITARY NEWSPAPER GROUP U.S. Air Force graphic/Robin Meredith the safety of student-athletes and service members. The partnership is the most comprehensive study of concussion and head impact exposure ever conducted. For TBI patients, TRICARE covers rehabilitative services provided by physicians, psychologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists and speech-language pathologists. The DOD offers a variety of products such as clinical recommendations, tool kits and mobile applications to assist health care providers in the diagnosis, evaluation and treatment of patients with mild TBI. One of the most important steps in TBI treatment is rest, which allows the brain to physically and mentally recover, and removes the risk of suffering another concussion while the brain is healing. Early diagnosis of TBI, as well as evaluation and treatment, can shorten return-to-duty time and lead to the best possible outcome for those entrusted to our care. Along with our partnerships and cuttingedge research, MHS is making great progress in improving and prolonging the quality of life for those living with TBI.

This time, it was members of the intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance teams who earned recognition at 14th Air Force level. First Lt. Elyse Crimm, 1st Space Operations Squadron, earned the Major General John S. Patton Outstanding Active Duty ISR Company Grade Officer of the Year; Master Sgt. Teri Freeman, 50th Operations Support Squadron, earned Outstanding Active Duty ISR Senior NCO of the Year; and Tech. Sgt. Russel Justice, 50 OSS, earned Outstanding Active Duty ISR NCO of the Year. Freeman also won at the Air Force Space Command level. “I think it’s incredible that in the four categories we’re eligible for, the 50th Space Wing won three awards,” Crimm said. Freeman said the near sweep of awards speaks to the 50 SW taking the lead among space wings in integrating intelligence with operations. “The first thing I said after learning of the awards was, ‘Man, we cleaned house,’ which is honestly what we did,” Freeman said. “I think it just goes to show that we’re leaning forward when it comes to intel and our position in a space wing.” Justice found out about his award in a rather unique way. He was one of the Airmen featured during last month’s State of the Base address. While wrapping up his profile of Justice, Col. Bill Liquori, 50 SW commander, made the announcement. “Sergeant Justice competed as an ISR Professional of the Year and was the non-commissioned officer of the year for the ISR community of the 14th Air Force, and he just found out right now,” Liquori said to a round of applause. Justice said the announcement came as a total surprise. “I had no idea that was going to happen,” Justice said. “It was already great to be recognized as one of the individuals they brought in to State of the Base, but then on top of that to find out I had won the award, it was just amazing.” All three winners agreed that integrating intelligence analysts into the SOPS, ahead of schedule, played a big part in earning their respective awards. “Being one of the two primary leads in that integration effort was a huge contributing factor (in earning the award),” Justice said. “Schriever is definitely ahead of the power curve when it comes to space operating in a contested, degraded and operationally limited environment, and how they’re integrating intel into the space operations squadron environments.” Crimm, and her flight of four other analysts, were a part of the 3rd Space Experimentation Squadron until April History Quiz Week of March 19, 2015 Last week’s answer: On March 2, 1973, this NASA space probe carried a gold plaque describing what we look like, where we are, and the date its mission began designed to signal peace to any extraterrestrials who might intercept it.

The merger gave 1 SOPS something it didn’t have previously, intelligence analysts dedicated to the 1 SOPS mission. “I think the merger is great and I know my commander really likes having the analysts,” Crimm said. “We can provide a lot better support to our operators in there.” Freeman said she hopes space operators will gain a better understanding of potential adversary threats to space operations by having intelligence analysts embedded in the squadrons. Crimm, Freeman and Justice all said they would not have been able to earn their respective award without the help and support of the members of their teams. “My team is awesome and I have some of the best intel people I have ever worked with in my 19 years in the Air Force,” Freeman said. “They amaze me every day.” Justice said the integration was a total team effort and he couldn’t have done any of it without the support of both his team and leadership. Crimm said the hard work of her flight is what allowed her to earn her award. “My flight works very hard to make sure our operators are aware of threats to their satellites and are constantly trying to improve the relationship between space operators and intel,” Crimm said. “It is their hard work and innovation that allowed me to be recognized for this award.” CDDIS 10/01 CDDIS 10/01 6 Schriever Sentinel March 19, 2015 SAPR training gets new look for 2015 By Brian Hagberg 50th Space Wing Public Affairs The term “annual training” won’t necessarily apply to Sexual Assault Prevention and Response training for 2015. The traditional once per year training session has been replaced with a system that calls for periodic training throughout the year. “SAPR every day is what the Air Force wants,” said Paula Krause, Schriever sexual assault response coordinator. “They’re hoping it will keep everybody a little more focused [on prevention].” The 2015 SAPR training schedule will include one 90-minute large group session, and three small group sessions to be done once per quarter. This quarterly training requirement will help keep SAPR fresh in people’s minds. “I want to give a big ‘A’ to the Air Force for the training change,” said Cecilia Smith, sexual assault victim advocate. “They don’t want it to be just once a year focus on SAPR. They want a discussion every day so if people hear about SAPR more, they’ll be more willing to discuss it.” Krause said SAPR training has evolved since the first SAPR down day in June 2012. “They started three years ago with the SAPR down day, which was the first time they had done one of those and was driven by some of the things going on in the Air Force (at that time),” Krause said. “After that large group training, they decided they needed to do some small group training as well.” The current 90-minute large group sessions, titled “Respect the Red Line,” are held in the auditorium on the first and third Tuesday of each month at 2 p.m. and the second and fourth Thursday of each month at 9 a.m. and are led by either Krause or Smith. These sessions are scheduled to be available until the end of September. “The Air Force felt having the 90-minute SAPR-led training would have the subject matter experts giving everybody a solid 90 minutes on the topic,” Krause said. “The purpose (of multiple sessions) was to have the subject matter experts address it first, and then have the smaller groups address it as well.” The small group sessions will be facilitated by a member of each individual group, squadron or unit and can be held at any time. Only one small group session may be held per quarter to meet the training requirement. Any member may be a facilitator for the small group sessions, though their squadron commander gives final approval for who may be a facilitator. The small groups should be between 10 and 15 people and larger squadrons may have more than one small group facilitator if necessary. “The concept is everybody learns in different ways,” Krause said. “They get the overall picture with the large group, and then within the small focus groups they can nail down what they think they need to do within the unit.” There are a number of topics available for squadrons to choose from for the small group sessions, however, there are two mandatory training topics, “Male Victimology” and “How to Talk to a Survivor.” Some of the optional topic offerings include, “Primary Prevention,” “Drinking and Consent,” “Successful Convictions” and “Sustaining a Culture of Respect.” Members can decline to attend the SAPR training if they are uncomfortable with the topic. Individuals will need to check in with the SAPR office to be excused. Individuals do not need to make a report to be excused from the training. The SAPR office will work with unit training managers to ensure the individual is recorded as completing the training requirement. For more information, contact the SAPR office at 567-7634. Chief’s Corner Interdependence By Chief Master Sgt. Joseph Stratil 4th Space Operations Squadron When I think of teamwork as a military member, one term stands out to me — interdependence. A common definition we used for the term interdependence in professional military education is “purposeful reliance” on another entity to accomplish a mission. It is a key part of teamwork — any team truly relies on one another to accomplish a mission. Interdependence has many manifestations at each level, in a joint setting, as military service and right here on our base. On Schriever, interdependence starts at the front gate. We all rely on our defenders to do their jobs each and every day. The fact is, they provide a safe and secure area for us to conduct operations 24/7, no matter the weather that allows us to do our job effectively. Think of a day without the protection our defenders provide, would it be the same? Our defenders do their jobs so well they provide us something truly valuable — the ability to truly focus on our part of the mission, free of worry. We are purposely reliant on our security forces to provide our security, safety, peace of mind and access to our work areas. All of these things are critical to doing our jobs. Another part of our team we can’t do without are our civil engineer personnel. Our CE unit provides many services for us, but one thing especially that we all use — power. Despite the talent of our Airmen, we cannot do our mission without the power provided by CE. Think about it, what happens when you lose power at home — not much of anything, right? We are dependent on our CE personnel, not just for power, but also things like plowing our roads in bad weather and the constant upgrade of our facilities. Many of the things CE provides are often take for granted, until they are gone. The truth is we rely on these services to be there every day, 24/7 and our CE folks do an amazing job of making that a reality. The nature of our military also relies on communication and timing, which is just one area our operations group comes into play. The operations group mission extends far beyond just flying satellites. Our satellites provide more than we realize as an average citizen. Anyone who does electronic banking, relies on secure communication, or likes to use their GPS to find directions are just a couple areas where we are reliant on what our ops group does in our daily lives. We are reliant on the communication and also navigation and timing that our ops group provides. Our air operations centers also rely on effects our satellites provide — and this capability clearly gives us an advantage in warfare. Speaking of advantages, think of a day without our computers or networks…. Our network operations group is another great example of interdependence. Our space communications squadron gives us computer and network access, and they do it with tremendous skill to keep hackers and bad actors at bay. Our satellite operators rely on the Air Force Satellite Control Network to command satellites around the world, making them indispensable. Think about the amount of tasks you do on your computer each day that require the network. This doesn’t happen without our folks in SCHRIEVER AFB STOP CRIME NOW the network ops group. Although seemingly behind the scenes, we all know what happens when we don’t have computers or good communication — not much. Finally, when I think of interdependence I think of our services, personnel and finance professionals in the mission support group and wing staff. We rely on them for some of our most important career events and everyday life in general. Our services team performs an outstanding job taking care of our families and providing us with critical services. Our personnel folks ensure we get people arriving or departing Schriever on assignments to name just one thing. Without our finance folks, we don’t get paid — and let’s face it, everybody wants to get paid. We also don’t get our operating budget without the budget folks who work long and hard to ensure we have the funds to continue to operate. If that isn’t a source we all rely upon, I don’t know what is. So thanks to our defenders for providing us safety, peace of mind and access to our areas. I thank CE for the power needed to operate nearly everything we use, and the computer access the network operations group gave me to type this article. I thank the operations group for the timing they provide so that I can use my ATM card to withdraw money on the way home that was provided by our finance folks. And I thank our mission support group services and personnel folks for the great assignment to this base and the many services we and our families enjoy. I am thankful for interdependence — the purposeful reliance on my teammates right here at Schriever Air Force Base. TO REPORT A CRIME, CALL: 567-5643 Schriever Sentinel 7 March 19, 2015 SSMEE visits HULA 50th Space Wing Public Affairs The 21st Space Operations Squadron Detachment 3, HULA, hosted Space Subject Matter Expert Exchange participants as part of an event Feb. 15-21 at Waianae, Hawaii. The SSMEE objective is tied to U.S. Southern Command Theater Campaign Plan intermediate military objectives and Air Forces Southern Country Engagement Plan objectives of assuring access to space as a global common, and the U.S. being the preferred partner in capacity development. “U.S. Southern Command sponsored subject matter expert exchange between Colombian air force space experts and Air Forces Southern, Air Force Space Command, Pacific Fleet, University of Hawaii and RocketDyne experts regarding small and nano satellite development and launch,” said. Lt. Col. Trae York, 12th Air Force director of space forces. The objective of the event was to expose the Colombian air force space officers to small satellite development and launch processes, from concept, acquisition, program management, satellite design, to safety checks for the satellite and rocket, to safe launch, and all of the inherent capacity and processes required to develop and launch a small satellite, York said. “The exposure will help the Colombian air force to understand the full scope of the effort required in order to meet their stated space goals of having the capacity to develop and launch small satellites,” he said. The Chief of Staff of the Colombian air force hand selected two capitanes from his staff, Capt. Fabio Sandoval, a program management expert, and Capt. Andrea Correchea, a radar expert. Both are saddled with assisting the space staff in developing a concept to meet the strategic goals of developing and launching a small satellite by 2020. This subject matter expert exchange enabled them to get an understanding of the capabilities and capacity required to meet these goals. The experts they met with hailed from the University of Hawaii’s Space Flight Laboratory, RocketDyne, Operationally Responsive Space Office, 21 Courtesy photo Participants of the Subject Matter Expert Exchange pose for a photo during their 21st Space Operations Squadron visit in February at Waianae, Hawaii. SOPS Det 3 and the Pacific Missile Range Facility. The reason Colombia desires small satellite launch capability and capacity is because space enabled capabilities can be integrated into civil and military planning and operations to better enable those operations, York said. This is across multiple disciplines including humanitarian disaster and disaster relief, counter-narcotics, Earth monitoring for deforestation or illegal mining, tele-medicine, tele-education and others. Prestige and economic benefits for Colombia are factors as well.

According to legend, a minor Chinese official named Wan Hu even attempted, sometime during the 16th century, to launch himself to the moon using 47 rockets strapped to his chair. Centuries passed before humans developed the technologies to take the first real steps toward reaching space. By the early 20th century, pioneers such as Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, Hermann Oberth, Wernher von Braun and Robert Goddard had advanced the science of rocketry to new summits. Von Braun’s rocketry work led to development of the German V 2 rocket, considered the foundation for today’s modern rockets. World War II brought not only rockets, but jet engines, radar and many other technological advances to the world. Tying those developing technologies together to foster exploration and exploitation of space would become the life’s work of many more scientists and engineers. Following World War II, the United States and the Soviet Union engaged in a “space race” to develop rockets capable of carrying artificial satellites into Earth orbit. The development of those rockets was also essential to the on-going work in both nations to develop missiles capable of delivering nuclear weapons at intercontinental ranges. In the mid-1950s, the U.S. Air Force activated the Western Development Division. President Dwight Eisenhower announced the first U.S. scientific satellite program and WDD secretly initiated Weapons System 117L, the first Air Force satellite program. In 1956, the U.S. government awarded Lockheed Missiles and Space Company a contract for development of the country’s first reconnaissance satellite, which eventually carried the top secret name “Corona.” On Oct. 4, 1957, the Soviet Union launched Sputnik I, the world’s first artificial satellite. The Soviets followed one month later with the launch of Sputnik II, which carried a dog named Laika (Barker), the first living creature placed into Earth orbit. The United States launched its first satellite, Explorer 1, in February 1958, followed by Vanguard 1 on March 1, 1958. Corona, which first operated under the “Discoverer” scientific cover, originally was planned for launch from Cape Canaveral, Florida, and would be supported by satellite tracking facilities around the world. Some of those stations were already in place on Pacific islands to support missile tests. By 1958, the Air Force Ballistic Missile Division (renamed from the Western Development Division) determined that additional tracking stations were required and added Vandenberg Air Force Base and Point Mugu, California; Ka’ena Point, Hawaii; and Kodiak, Alaska, to the network. The launch site for Discoverer/Corona was also changed from Cape Canaveral to Vandenberg AFB. Discoverer I launched Feb. 28, 1959, and served as a test platform for guidance and booster systems. It transmitted telemetry intermittently until it de-orbited March 17, 1959. The Air Force quickly realized it needed an organization dedicated to on-orbit commanding and controlling of satellites. On April 6, 1959, the 6594th Test Wing activated at Lockheed’s facility in Palo Alto, California, and the Air Force Satellite Control Network was born. At its activation, the 6594th included three operating locations — Edwards Air Force Base, California; Chiniak, Alaska; and Annette Island, Alaska. Later in the year, stations at Vandenberg AFB, California; Ka’ena Point, Hawaii; and New Boston, New Hampshire, joined the wing. In March 1960, the wing moved to Sunnyvale, California, and in June of that year, the installation, designated Air Force Satellite Control Center, opened. Later, the installation would be redesignated Onizuka Air Force Station. The wing was redesignated 6594th Aerospace Test Wing in 1961 and reassigned to the newly created Space Systems Division. While the United States advanced its development of intercontinental ballistic missiles, it also continued work on its satellite programs, especially the Corona reconnaissance satellite. On Aug. 19, 1960, a specially equipped C-119 aircraft and its crew conducted the first aerial recovery of a film canister ejected from a Corona satellite — Discoverer XIV. That satellite had acquired 3,000 feet of imagery covering more than 1.65 million square miles of Soviet territory. While the Discoverer program ended in 1962 after 38 satellite launches, the Corona program continued operations in secrecy for another 10 years. Meanwhile, expansion and modernization of the satellite tracking stations continued as the United States. began developing communications and weather satellite systems. By the end of 1961, the network consisted of the main node at Sunnyvale and tracking stations at Vandenberg, Kodiak Island, Ka’ena Point, New Boston, Thule, Annette Island, Fort Greely, and by 1962, on the Seychelles island of Mahe in the Indian Ocean. By June 1962, the network was able to support multiple satellite operations. Network operators supported as many as 10 programs, including their primary mission, Corona. The AFSCN gained responsibility for all ICBM and space tracking activities in 1963, and its organization and operations continued to expand. Recognizing the need for a new organizational construct to meet the growing requirements of the network, the Air Force established the Air Force Satellite Control Facility as an organization in June 1965 and named Col. Walter H. Hedrick Jr. as its commander. The AFSCF operated remote tracking stations around the world and conducted satellite telemetry, tracking, and commanding tasks now performed by the 50th Space Wing’s space operations squadrons. The Guam Tracking Station opened in September 1965 as the first mobile facility, though permanent structures were soon constructed. The Los Angeles-based AFSCF was comprised of a support squadron and detachment at Sunnyvale, the tracking stations, and the 6594th Recovery Control Group, which was charged with the primary task of recovering Corona satellite payloads. The group also conducted rescue missions in the Pacific and supported NASA’s Apollo space launches. The 6594th Recovery Control Group inactivated in 1986 after recovering tens of thousands of film canisters ejected from once-classified satellites, such as Corona, Hexagon and Gambit. The next article will cover expansion of the network and technological advances in 1970s and 1980s. Criminal Defense LAW FIRM OF MARK S.

She said Airmen have friends, supervisors, first sergeants and commanders immediately available to assist getting their personnel home safe. “I hope the people who do use A2D2 encourage others to use them as well,” she added. “It’s just not worth the consequences to drink and drive.” A2D2 is available anytime from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. Fridays and Saturdays. During holiday weekends, their hours are extended. “We want people to know we’re here,” he said. “We’re here if you need a ride or if you would like to volunteer your time and effort to make a difference.” Davis, who has been the president since last December, said he enjoys being able to help others through the program. “So far this year, we estimated nearly 100 lives saved,” said Davis. The volunteer program averages four calls every weekend but on some weekends, they get at most 15 calls. “As a supervisor, I tell my Airmen to call me anytime they need a ride,” he said. As someone who has been personally affected by alcohol impaired driving, he understands what a life changer a DUI can be. “It inspires me and frustrates me to be a part of A2D2,” he said. “I’d rather people had made a plan before drinking but I also rather them not endanger anyone’s life, including their own.” He wants everyone to know the organization is not against drinking; they’re anti-drinking and driving. Anyone interested in volunteering should contact their unit representatives or just show up to the Eclipse Café for a safety briefing at Peterson Air Force Base at 10 p.m. on a night the service is available.

Dental assistants are a key part of the dental practice year-round, but they get a special week dedicated to them each year for all the great work they do. Dentists in the United States and Canada have this week-long opportunity to celebrate and honor their dental assistants for the variety of duties they perform, and for the quality dental care they enable. According to the dental assistant career field education and training plan, dental assistants “assist the dentist in the delivery of dental health care; select and arrange instruments, materials and medicaments for use. Retract tissues and maintain a clear operating field. Perform oral prophylaxis; instruct patients in dental health maintenance. Expose and process dental radiographs/images. Clean, sterilize dental instruments. Perform dental administrative duties, coordinate patient appointments and maintain dental health records, filing systems and publications.” This definition, although thorough with regards to the daily tasks performed by a dental assistant, fails to capture what can arguably be the most important aspect of being a dental assistant — having compassion. Senior Airman Janee Tamayo, a Schriever clinic dental assistant, had the following answer when asked why she loves being a dental assistant: “If there’s one thing I hear on an almost daily basis it’s: ‘I’m not a huge fan of being in the dental clinic,’” she said. “Many of our patients deal with anxiety when visiting the dental clinic; this is where the most challenging, and gratifying, facet of being a dental assistant comes into play. It takes compassion, competence and consistency to make U.S. Air Force photo/Christopher DeWitt Team Schriever celebrates Dental Assistant Recognition Week in March. Dental assistants are a key part of the dental practice year-round, but they get a special week dedicated to them each year for all the great work they do. a patient’s dental experience as comfortable as possible.” So when someone asks Tamayo what her job entails, she does not respond with the “textbook answer” because that’s not the most important part of what she does. “My job is to make you smile, and keep you smiling, and that’s why I love being a dental assistant,” she said. Schriever Air Force Base thanks Tamayo, Tech. Sgt. Grace Yarlett, Tech. Sgt. Derek Ware, Staff Sgt. Ryan Tano, Senior Airman Megan Luscier and Airman Matthew Thomas for their service and compassion as Air Force dental assistants. 12 Schriever Sentinel March 19, 2015 Base Briefs Society opens doors to military widows ing at 2:30 p.m. in Building 350, Room 1206.

Shawn Nickel 7th Air Force Public Affairs OSAN AIR BASE, South Korea — “Space, the final frontier,” can mean a lot to people in different careers, but is the vast blackness filled with mesmerizing intergalacticlights important to today’s warfighter? According to Capt. Jamil Brown, the 607th Air Operations Center chief of space plans, space is a newer concept to warfighting. His team worked to integrate the concept into exercise Key Resolve 15. “As chief of space plans, I’m in charge of integrating space into the air tasking order cycle, making sure the plan that’s put together has both the space support it needs and also the estimated space effects to make sure the mission goes along as planned,” Brown said. During the past few exercises, integrating space effects into KR scenarios has been an evolutionary process. “One of the nice things about working with our (South) Korean counterparts is we’re beginning to not only educate everyone here (on) what space has to contribute, but we’re also integrating it into the plans, so space is as essential and integral as everything else,” he said. During the exercise process, Brown found planners’ interest in space had increased as they sought to understand how space effects fit into their planning and maneuvers. “It’s great they have that thirst, but now we’re catching up to that to (make) sure we can satisfy that interest in space knowledge,” Brown said. “That’s a challenge I’m pleased to have to overcome.” Army Capt. Otis Ingram, 3rd Battlefield Coordination Detachment space coordination officer, said space technology isn’t just applicable to flying and air combat; it’s essential to troops on the ground. “Although solar flares and space dust aren’t directly related to what troops on the ground are doing, it directly affects elements of warfare such as GPS and satellite communication,” Brown said. According to Brown, generating and implementing knowledge of space effects is sure to help KR run smoother, but more importantly, it also plays a role in future combat and humanitarian operations around the world. “Space has been around for a while, but in regards to integrating it into the overall theater of operations, we will continue to improve and develop to better assist our counterparts and warfighters around the world,” Brown said. AF announces 23 AFSCs on reenlistment bonus list Air Force Personnel Center Public Affairs JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIORANDOLPH, Texas — Enlisted Airmen in 23 Air Force specialty codes may be eligible to receive a selective reenlistment bonus effective March 12, Air Force officials announced. The Air Force is moving forward with a higher end-strength, so AFSCs eligible for the SRB program will increase to address retention of experienced Airmen in some key mission areas such as maintenance, signals intelligence and mental health. “All of these career fields are challenged to retain experienced mid-level Airmen,” said Col. Arch Bruns, the director of AFPC personnel services. “The (fiscal 2015) SRB program will offer bonus incentives to Airmen in critical and emerging career fields with high operations demands and low manning that still require attention, such as battlefield Airmen, cyberspace specialties and specific maintenance career fields. These incen- tives will also help the Air Force retain key maintenance experience while we work F-35 maintenance manning options.” The identified career fields have been at or below required sustainment levels for some time, so they were exempt from all fiscal 2014 voluntary and most involuntary force management programs (except the Quality Force Review Board). “SRBs are judiciously and effectively targeted to provide the most return-oninvestment in both dollars and capability,” the colonel said. “This allows the Air Force to retain Airmen who are critical to current and emerging mission requirements.” The Air Force will continue to offer SRBs to the 10 critical career fields from the fiscal 2014 program and has added an additional 13 AFSCs to the fiscal 2015 program. As follows is the complete FY15 SRB list; 13 added AFSCs asterisked: 1A8X1 Airborne Cryptologic Language Analyst 1A8X2 Airborne Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Operator 1B4X1 Cyberspace Defense Operations 1C2X1 Combat Control 1C4X1 Tactical Air Control Party * 1N2X1A Signals Intel Analyst — Electronic 1N4X1A Fusion Analyst, Digital Network Analyst 1T0X1 Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape 1T2X1 Pararescue 1W0X2 Special Operations Weather * 2A3X3 Tactical Aircraft Maintenance * 2A3X4 Fighter Aircraft Integrated Avionics * 2A375 Advanced Fighter Aircraft Integrated Avionics * 2A3X5A Advanced Fighter Aircraft Integrated Avionics (F-22) * 2A375B Advanced Fighter Aircraft Integrated Avionics (F-35) * 2A3X7 Tactical Aircraft Maintenance (5th Generation) * 2A5X2D Helicopter/Tilt Rotor Aircraft Maintenance (CV-22) * 2A574 Refuel/Bomber Aircraft Maintenance Craftsman * 2A5X4D Refuel/Bomber Aircraft Maintenance Craftsman (B-52) * 2A5X4F Refuel/Bomber Aircraft Maintenance Craftsman (B-2) * 2M0X3 Missile and Space Facilities 3E8X1 Explosive Ordnance Disposal * 4C0X1 Mental Health Service As with the previous SRB release, and based on changes in Department of Defense policy, Airmen are no longer able to request accelerated SRB payments.

Jette Carr Air Force News Service FORT GEORGE G. MEADE, Maryland — It has been nearly half a year since the release and implementation of the new Airman Comprehensive Assessment, a comprehensive worksheet that aids in creating feedback between a supervisor/rater and their ratee. The following is a break-down of the major sections reflected on the form: Section III. Self Assessment The new ACA is hardly a one-sided assessment, to be filled out single-handedly by supervisors. For the first time, Airmen will be given a section to evaluate their own performances prior to meeting with their supervisors or raters. “The change is to help supervisors/raters understand how their Airmen believe they are performing,” said Will Brown, the Air Force Evaluation and Recognition Programs Branch chief. “The supervisor/rater takes that input and provides a more in-depth assessment on how an Airman can improve his or her performance. This also helps the first-line supervisor tailor the session to an Airman’s specific needs.” Within the self-assessment portion of the ACA is a list of 17 reflection points, categorized under the subheads of responsibility, accountability, Air Force culture and self. Each section contains specific statements of understanding, such as “Understands the importance of leading by example.” To the right of each reflection point, Airmen are given the opportunity to signal either their understanding, or their need for more information. This section specifically reflects an Airman’s belief of their own knowledge base, and does not take into account whether or not the supervisor agrees with the answers. “The ACA is not based on whether or not the supervisor concurs with the Airman’s assessment,” Brown said. “The focus and purpose of the ACA is to communicate to the Airmen what is expected, provide them with additional information where needed, and to point them in the right direction for a successful Air Force career.” Section VI. Performance: Leadership, Primary Duties, Training Section VI should seem a bit more familiar to the rater, because it focuses on evaluating an Airman’s performance. The old feedback method was writing bullets detailing the supervisor’s personal expectations for their Airmen, while the updated form has a list of standardized expectations to ensure each Airman has a clear understanding of what’s anticipated of them. “This area reflects the specific areas identified regarding performance,” Brown said. “The section includes primary duty factors and general military factors. Primary duty factors are generally based on what occurs in the work environment and general military factors are those characteristics that are considered essential to military order, image and tradition. “Each block should be used to advise the Airman how he or she is currently performing assigned duties, and provide expectations from the rater to the ratee on what performance areas need improvement,” he added. According to the Air Force Form 931, Air Force Instruction 36-2618, “The Enlisted Force Structure,” should be utilized by the rater as the “standard of expected performance commensurate with the Airman’s rank.” The AFI provides descriptions of the duties and responsibilities of each Air Force rank, which can be used to decide the degree to which the Airman being evaluated complies with the performance expectations listed. Each topic being rated is listed under a general subhead, such as innovative/motivation, skill level upgrade training, and resource utilization, which is then followed by a brief description of the topic for clarity. The four boxes to the right of each topic represent the grading scale. Each box falls into a category of few, majority, some and very few Airmen — the number of how many Airmen are expected to be performing at the level listed. “That information was included to indicate to supervisors where the majority of Airmen should be, and that it is OK — expected — to be completely honest,” Brown said. “Not every Airman will exceed all the expectations set for him or her. Indicating where the majority of Airmen would be in their performance should improve communication between the supervisor and the Airman.” Section IX. Knowing Your Airman The final section, “Knowing your Airman,” promotes discussion between the Airman and their supervisor/rater. A list of six questions, ranging from inquiries about the Airman’s goals for self-improvement to what stresses them out, is provided for the supervisor to ask their subordinate. “The questions are a jumping-off point to assist in opening the communication between the Airman and the supervisor,” Brown said. “(Section IX) was designed ... so both may reach better understanding of the Airman’s goals and other areas to put the Airman on a successful career path.” During this discussion, there is no right or wrong answer to each question, Brown said. Also there’s a part of section IX where the supervisor/rater is asked to list expectations for the unit and ratee. Similar to the older feedback form, this segment can be used to let Airmen know what their strengths and weaknesses are and how to improve on future endeavors. “When an ACA is completed, the Airman should know how their supervisor expects them to perform, and should have a better understanding of their responsibility, accountability, Air Force culture and themselves,” Brown said. “Following a session, Airmen will also know in what areas they need to improve. In addition, supervisors should have a better understanding of their Airmen’s goals (personal and professional), how they can help their Airmen reach those goals, and what they can do to assist their Airmen achieve other career goals.” To review the guidance memo explaining how to use the ACA worksheet, go to the e-Publishing website at www.epublishing.af.mil and enter AFI36-2406 in the search window.
