Stomp out: Sexual assault Allotments: MAC accused of charging recurring, undisclosed fees
■ From Page A1
for Cadet Command, said five JROTC programs from area schools, including Fort Knox,
will be in attendance and others have registered online to run the 5K at their schools.
“The JROTC program is about teaching
leadership and good citizenship,” he
explained. “Teaching our youth how to deal
with something that is wrong and how to
make it right will help them in their quest to
be better leaders and to develop citizens who
can do the right thing and teach others to do
the same.”
To further highlight Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention month, Spraggins and
Streeter said Cadet Command and Fort Knox
will recognize Denim Day April 29, as a way
to lend more attention to the serious issue of
sexual assault.
Denim Day was started after a 1999
Italian Supreme Court ruling overturned a
rape conviction because the victim was
wearing tight jeans at the time of the assault.
The court’s logic in overturning the ruling
was that because the jeans were tight, the
victim must have helped her attacker remove
the jeans.
After the incident and the ruling was made
public people all over the world were outraged
and wearing denim on the anniversary of the
ruling became an international symbol of
protest about the misconceptions that
surround sexual violence.
Streeter added that the command is
encouraging employees to wear denim—the
commanding general, Maj. Gen. Peggy Combs,
has authorized Soldiers to wear denim as
well—take photos and post them to their unit
Facebook pages.
“Denim Day is a symbolic gesture to say,
‘it’s not about what you wear,’ as to whether
you should be treated right” said Spraggins.
“As Soldiers and DA civilians we know what
right looks like and it’s not about the clothes.”
If someone within the DOD community
needs to talk about a sexual assault issue, but
is not comfortable talking to someone on post,
or does not know where to turn, Streeter said
DOD has recently signed a contract with the
Rape Abuse Incest National Network for just
that purpose.
“They take phone calls and direct them to
appropriate organizations within an area,”
Streeter explained. “They comply with state
reporting laws, but the contract we signed is a
DOD safe help line and is specific for DOD
communities.”
But Streeter and Spraggins are always
available to talk or give advice. Spraggins can
be reached at [email protected]

DHA warns beneficiaries of potential scam
WWW.HEALTH.MIL
The Defense Health Agency,
Office of Program Integrity has received a significant number of concerns from our Tricare beneficiaries
regarding unsolicited attempts by
“Call Centers” to encourage them to
provide personal identifying
information and health information
so that they can allegedly provide
prescribed cream medications to the
Tricare beneficiary.
Tricare and its contractors never
call and ask for personal identifying
information or health information.
Beneficiaries should be wary of
unsolicited attempts by any entity
asking them for personal or health
information, by phone or in person.
The “Call Center” will normally
cold call and say, “I am a representative calling from XYZ, we are
calling to tell you about a benefit
Tricare will cover for you for a prescription pain cream you are eligible
for. Do you have any of the following
medical issues (list of issues) or
pain? If so, Tricare wants to get you
taken care of, all we need are your
doctor’s name and your Tricare
information and we will contact
your doctor and get these
medications or supplies out to you
immediately and submit a claim.”
DHA PI strongly advises people
to give no information to these types
of unsolicited requests for their
personal health information and
personal identifying information.
Often these “Call Centers” have
identified what limited information
they have through “Google”
searches or through individuals
who have approached you
independently and obtained
information directly from you.
Should you receive a phone call

submit a fraud line report to our

When does information sharing become too much?
Be selective in
posting to Internet
By AIR FORCE STAFF SGT.
JESSICA HINES
USAFE-AFAFRICA PUBLIC AFFAIRS
We’ve all done it; in a
vain sense of curiosity to see
if our social presence has
made any kind of impact on
the world. Just admit it—
you’ve Googled yourself.
Since entering the
golden age of social media,
it seems that now it’s not
hard to gather a handful
of information on just
about anyone, even
ourselves.
But isn’t that the point?
It’s why we blast pictures of
high school graduations,
trips to Europe and all our
favorite music and movie
“Likes” on our profiles. We
want to be heard and seen,
we want to share our
accomplishments and
victories and find support
when life gets hard.
Social media has allowed
us to network and reach
across the barriers of time
and space to share our story,
build partnerships and
connect with people from
around the world we may
never have had the chance
to.
It’s not hard to get caught
up in the exchange of
information and let our
guard down, especially when
we believe our information
is safe. Generally, the
information we share is
harmless.
We start to run into
trouble when the
information we share across
various social networks is
strung together like pieces
of a puzzle, creating a larger
snapshot of our lives than
we realize. When coupled
with public records and
open-source content, the
information we share online
can create vulnerabilities in
our personal and
professional lives.
But, where do we draw
the line? When does
information sharing become
too much of a good thing?
Just as you would lock
the front door of your
home or secure your wallet,
social media users should
aim to lockup and secure
their online personal
information and do regular
checkups of their social
thumbprint.
■ This should include
Googling yourself to not just
see how awesome and
popular you are, but to see
what information is readily
available or associated with
your name. From there, you
can take the necessary steps
to protect or remove
potentially revealing
information.
■ Another important
social checkup habit people
should practice is digging
into a website’s privacy and
security settings. All social
media sites require users to
accept and Privacy Act
agreements and terms of
use guidelines.
Unfortunately, nearly
everyone accepts these
terms without every reading
what they agreed to. This is
probably one of the biggest
culprits of overexposing
personal information.
The agreements between
social networking sites and
users are designed to help
keep personal information
safe. However, it’s our
responsibility to ensure we
use them to their fullest
potential and not blindly
accept new security settings
without checking to see if
our information is still
secure.
■ The below list includes
some additional best
practices for keeping your
social thumbprint safe and
secure:
1. Think before you post:
A good rule of thumb is if
you wouldn’t say it in front
of your boss or grandmother,
then you probably shouldn’t
say it online. Remember, the
Internet is permanent with
a long memory of our
actions. Even if you delete
something, someone else
may have already seen,
copied and shared the
information. When in doubt,
keep it to yourself.
2. Be selective, be
e-selective: Having a
thousand-plus friends might
look cool, but isn’t realistic.
It’s important to scrutinize
who you add
as a “friend”
and ensure
that you
actually know
them. Don’t
be fooled by
fake profiles
and
marketing
schemes.
3. “Geo-tag
this:” While
you may have
disabled
location
settings
within a
specific app
or website, be sure to check
the privacy settings within
your smartphone, tablet
and personal computer. You
may be broadcasting
your location without
realizing it.
4. Log on, log off: It’s
easy to keep login
information stored in a
browser for faster access
and simply “X-out” once
done; however, this practice
makes it easy for someone to
follow behind and gain
access to your account.
5. Once forgotten, twice
exposed: With each new
networking site or app, our
information quickly becomes
duplicated across multiple
platforms; however, just
because you moved on,
doesn’t mean your
information did. Keep note
of what sites you still use
and delete old accounts you
don’t use such as an old
dating profile, registry or
blog.
6. The guessing game:
How easy would it be for
someone to guess your
password or answer your
security questions? Compare
these passwords and
questions against your
profile and ensure you’re not
unintentionally giving away

8. Go phish: Online
confidence scams, otherwise
known as phishing, is a way
for hackers or companies to
gain access to personal and
sensitive information such
as usernames, passwords
and credit card numbers.
This is done through what
seems to be legitimate
online communications such
as games, chatrooms, online
payments, Wi-Fi hotspots,
news links and more. The
best way to avoid becoming
a victim of phishing scams it
to closely scrutinize the
source of information, and
never disclose personal
information such as credit
card numbers, passwords or
addresses over the internet
without double checking the
security of the website.
Again, when in doubt, keep
it to yourself.
9. All the world’s a

harmless to keep our
personal social media pages

however, by leaving the
virtual door open to the
whole world we leave
ourselves vulnerable to
unwanted attention. Take
control of your default
privacy settings and limit
the viewing power of your
audience to a personal VIP
list.
10. The buck starts and
stops with you: Ultimately,
you control what information is available about you.
Don’t give online scammers,
predators or hackers a free
ticket to your personal
information. Take control,
take action and help keep
the Internet a safe place to
socialize.

How to prepare quality 3rd ESC hosts fun run to
awards nomination packets ‘eliminate sexual assault’
Proof reading and proper
criteria are important
By JULIA BOBICK
U.S. ARMY ENGINEERING AND SUPPORT CENTER,
HUNTSVILLE
Award programs are a valuable
tool leaders have to recognize
individuals and teams and help tell
their stories to the rest of the world.
Preparing quality nomination
packages—for both local and
national awards—is critical to a
successful program, according to Lt.
Col. Kendall Bergmann, deputy
commander for the U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers’ U.S. Army Engineering
and Support Center, Huntsville,
Alabama.
“I like to think everyone is humble
and doesn’t want to be nominated,
but we owe it to that person or team
to … recognize outstanding work,”
Bergmann said during a lunch-andlearn workshop on preparing
winning award packages presented
by Huntsville Center’s Federal
Women’s Program April 9 at the
center.
As an introduction, Gina Elliott,
Chief of the Facilities Division in the
Installation Support and Programs
Management Directorate, provided
an overview of the different types of
awards Department of the Army
civilian employees can receive—from
annual performance incentive and
time-off awards to honorary, national
and center-specific awards. Elliott
stressed the importance of knowing
award deadlines and planning
submissions well in advance to
ensure each packet is as complete as
possible.
Individuals making the award
nomination should not only help
write them, but also talk to the
individual or team being nominated.
It doesn’t have to be a surprise, in
fact, letting the individual know you
are nominating them can be just as
important as the individual
receiving the award, Elliott said.
“The most important thing you
need to do in order to create an
award-winning package is first—and
this sounds really, really simple—
read the evaluation criteria before
selecting the nominee,” said Valerie
Clinkenbeard, a civil engineer in the
Engineering Directorate. “Make sure
the nominee has the requirements to
meet the criteria and truly be
competitive in all the categories
before proceeding.”
Having written close to 100
award packages in her career with a
high rate of success, Clinkenbeard
said she has heard fellow employees
say, “If you want to win, get Valerie
to write it for you.”
While she appreciates the
confidence in her skills, she said
the comment bothers her. “That
takes away from the candidate.”
She also discourages supervisors
from having the nominated employee
write and complete his or her
own nomination package.
“It is very difficult for a person to
brag about themselves. It is much
easier for someone else to interview
the person, get all the information
and write it for them,” Clinkenbeard
said. “If you really want the
employee to win the award, you are
going to have to interview the
person.”
Tips from the speakers:
■ Don’t embellish—ever.
■ If criteria or submittal
requirements are unclear, ask for
clarification.
■ Allow sufficient time to devote
to a complete nomination package
(one to two months for national level
and/or career achievement awards).
■ Get a winning example in the
same or similar award category.
■ Answer the what (impact,
results) and how (teamwork,
innovation, attitude).
■ Write clearly and concisely—
use short sentences in active voice
and make every sentence count.
“Don’t waste your space on a lot of
flowery adjectives that really don’t
say anything—just be very direct
and specific,” Clinkenbeard said. “Be
clear and concise about technical
examples; don’t assume [the review
panel] will know our acronyms.”
One of the most important traits
to demonstrate in an award package,
according to Clinkenbeard, is how
the employee has had an impact on
others and the organization. Include
examples of how the employee acts
as a role model or mentor, as well as
anecdotes from colleagues and
customers.
Don’t tell the award committee
the candidate is a really good hardworking person, Clinkenbeard said.
Using the actual words from peers
and customers has a lot of power.
“Generalities carry no weight and
they just take up space.”
The final tip: have someone—or
several people—proofread the
nomination.
“When we want our people and
our organization recognized at
higher levels, it’s not enough just to
submit someone—you have to
submit a quality package with the
information and level of detail
required to demonstrate why the
individual deserves the recognition,”
Bergmann said.
While it might seem insignificant
to some, “When a supervisor
misspells words it tells me you care
about the employee, but not quite
enough.”
Employees can find details in the
Army’s Incentive Awards Regulation
(AR 672-20 dated April 1, 2014),
Civilian Personnel Online and their
organization’s civilian award
guidance. While the information
presented focused on civilian award
nomination packages, the
preparation tips would also apply to
award nominations for Soldiers.
Military award guidance can be
found in AR 600-8-22 Military
Awards RAR dated June 24, 2013. ■

DOD NEWS, DEFENSE
MEDIA ACTIVITY
The DOD News
broadcast channel,
formerly known as the
Pentagon Channel, discontinued service as an
independent broadcast
channel April 17, Pentagon officials announced.
DOD News will continue producing and airing current military
news and information
for distribution on the
American Forces Network and through the
Internet at Defense.gov,
both live and on
demand, officials said in
a news release.
The transition to
these delivery methods
will provide more
opportunities for the
military community,
stationed around the
world and at sea, to keep
up with Defense
Department news and
events, officials added.
But, Defense.gov will
archive the programs to
allow for on-demand
viewing, officials noted.
The channel operated
as a separate broadcast
channel for more than
10 years. AFN overseas
and many commercial
cable companies in the
United States have used
the service.
As technology
improved and audienceviewing habits changed,
officials explained,
Internet-based
distribution became a
more economical and
efficient way to reach the
military’s geographically

3RD SUSTAINMENT COMMAND
(EXPEDITIONARY) PUBLIC
AFFAIRS
Third Sustainment
Command (Expeditionary) service members,
along with Family members and friends, turned
out to support the unit’s
2015 Sexual Harassment/Assault Response
and Prevention twomile Fun Run/Walk,
April 17. The event was
a way for the Fort Knox
community to raise
awareness of sexual
harassment and
assault.
“April is Sexual
Assault Awareness and
Prevention month and
this year’s theme is
‘Eliminate Sexual
Assault, Know your
part, Do your part,’” said
Master Sgt. Shonn
Richardson, 3rd ESC
sexual assault response
coordinator.
“By focusing and the
knowing and doing and
being committed to
eliminating sexual harassment and assaults,
together we can ‘intervene, act and motivate’
each other to prevent
sexual harassment and
assaults before they
happen,” said
Richardson.
On a dark, but
seasonably warm
Kentucky morning,
participants lined the
street in front of Harris
Hall. Before the run,
Col. Robert Weaver, 3rd
Sustainment Command
(Expeditionary) deputy
commander, addressed
the runners.
“On behalf of Brig.
Gen. Walker, I want to
thank all the Families
and friends that came
out today to support
this run… We are here
to have fun, but we are
also here to bring
awareness to SHARP.
That is why we are
wearing these teal
ribbons today, and these
bracelets, and supporting this program. It is
incredibly important
that everybody understands what this program is about, why we
are here and that we
provide a safe and comfortable environment for
all of our Soldiers and
their Family members.”
“Preventing sexual
assault is all about
enforcing standards and
discipline. If we enforce
standards and discipline

it is just like going to a
range, or the motorpool,
or anything else.”
Weaver continued, “We
know what is right and
wrong, and what it
takes to meet our Army
standards and what
does not, and every
person is empowered to
report violations and
take care of their battle
buddies.”
After Weaver spoke,
three 3rd ESC
noncommissioned
officers led the runners
and walkers in reciting
the SHARP
“Commitment Pledge.”
Third ESC, Command
Sgt. Maj. Edward Bell
explained how the
pledge is intended to
help shape the Army’s
culture.
“The commitment
pledge talks about
sexual assault being a
problem in the United
States Army,” Bell said.
“It talks about
eliminating sexual
harassment and sexual
assault, not only from
our formation, but from
the community. Our
trust with the
community has always
been something we have
always held near and
dear to our hearts.”
“The pledge also
talks about intervening,
no matter the time or
place, and being the one
who will not accept
behaviors that should
not be a part of our
great military, and
acting to protect
members of our Army
and their Family
members.” Bell went on
to say, “It’s about esprit
de corps, being highly
motivated, and living by
the Army values.”
Lakeisha Wade, wife
of 3rd ESC equal
opportunity advisor Sgt.
1st Class Alton Wade,
who participated along
with their three
children, said, “I
thought the run was
great for morale, it was
a great way to bring out
Family, friends and for
everybody to have a
good time.” She also
acknowledged the
greater meaning of the
event, “It has always
been embedded in my
mind, that it is not okay
to accept it, it is not
okay to do it, it is not
okay to be a bystander.”

THE GOLD STANDARD
SPOTLIGHT ON SAFETY
Don’t fall victim to
spring cleaning hazards
It’s spring! That means you have
to cut the grass, repaint the shed,
repair the roof shingles, clean out the
garage and so much more.
Did you realize during
spring cleaning we
expose ourselves to
more hazards than
Homer Simpson in a
nuclear power plant?
Unlike work,
we typically disregard
Brian
the personal
Wood
protective equipment
Safety Specialist
we should wear while
working on projects at home.
The nails shooting out of a nail
gun at home are no different than
those at work. A nail can puncture
your eye, skin, or even worse ricochet
off the wood, and strike your spouse.
Who would be in real trouble then?
The bottom line is protect yourself
off duty and wear your personal
protective equipment. Read the
owner’s manual for warnings and
hazards of the tool you are using. I
remember when I bought my riding
mower and saw a warning pictogram
of a child being run over when the
mower is in reverse. Unfortunately,
we have heard on the news about
those tragic stories before. Just
because the emergency room is open
24 hours a day does not mean that
you have to visit them.
The to-do lists just got much larger
when the warmer temps started
arriving a few weeks ago. Most twocycle engine yard equipment has
similar warnings and caution labels.
First, wear eye protection to prevent
eye injuries. Remember we need
them both. Secondly, wear hearing
protection even if it is operated for a
few minutes. Over time, accumulative
hearing damage can occur, and the
next thing you will hear is a
humming sound in your ears.
What about cleaning out your
gutters and climbing on the roof for
those shingle repairs? We all know
that the right size ladder can make a
huge difference. Typically we find
ourselves with a ladder that just
makes it over the gutter and is a
little shaky. But it’s OK to use a
ladder that’s too short and shaky
when we’re at home, right? No.
Again, I have to remind you that
falling off a ladder anywhere will
hurt regardless of how high you are
from the ground. Make sure the
ladder cleats are in the correct place
and someone is holding the ladder
steady. A head injury can be
permanent or deadly. We only get one
brain, so let’s use it.
If you have young children at
home, think about what is stored in
your backyard or garage. Do they
have access to chemicals, paints,
sharp lawn equipment, or the keys to
that brand new mower you just
purchased? We all know young
children catch on pretty quick, so be
careful.
Add to your list a quick inspection
of the backyard playground. There
are several things you need to do:
check and tighten the bolts and
screws and remove splinters if
it is a wooden set. In addition, make
sure the anchors are properly
attached per the manufacture’s
recommendations.
With all those safety tips, you may
be up to the task of spring cleaning
around the house. But wait, there is
more—be sure to drink plenty of
water and wear sun block. I can
promise you that you will not get
good sleep if your back feels like it’s
on fire. This should get you started,
so be safe and don’t skip a step.
If you cannot remember all of
these important steps, visit the Army
Safety Center homepage online at
https://safety.army.mil/. There are
several off duty topics under the
heading titled “Off-Duty.”
Additionally, feel free to contact the
Fort Knox Garrison Safety Office at
(502) 624-4407 for more information
or resources. Good luck, and I hope
that all of your cleaning is finished
quickly so you can safely enjoy the
outdoors with your family. ■

In the future, the Air
Force’s core missions
will probably not
change, but the way
they are carried out
will, Air Force Chief of
Staff Gen. Mark Welsh
III said April 8.
Welsh, speaking to
the Defense Writers
Group, said the Air
Force’s missions
include air and space
superiority, intelligence,
surveillance and
reconnaissance, rapid
global mobility, global
strike and command
and control.
Those missions “are
what the joint force
requires to be
successful,” the general
said.
New technologies,
new methods and new
domains will change
the way Airmen do
their jobs, Welsh said.
“The hot jobs will be
probably be in the
cyber domain (and)
they will be in remotely
piloted aircraft,” he
said.
The remotely piloted
aircraft career field is
growing leaps and
bounds, the general
said. Airmen currently
working in this field, he
said, are figuring out
what the technology
can do and how it can
be worked into today’s
and tomorrow’s service.
“Many of them came
in to do this, which is a
change from 10 years
ago,” Welsh said. “They

publicly recognizes God’s actions
to other.
In planning activities in the
Army, we do what is called
backwards planning. We start at
the event and work backwards to
now. This insures that the
activity is the priority and all the
events leading up to the activity
our thought through. This
provides the best opportunity for
the event to go as planned.
The hedonic treadmill concept
is the improper perspective of
blessings. The Mustang GT is a
blessing. The job was a blessing.
The skills and talents are a
blessing. There will be new
mustangs. There will be better
jobs. Talents and abilities come
and go. In the end, there will be
the constant attempt to work
towards the better blessing. The
blessing is God’s act of creation
and the work toward the
salvation of the creation.
Backwards planning suggests
we start with God and the
creative work in us. Appreciate
the efforts in keeping us in God’s
favor. Then when we arrive at
where we are we can be thankful
for all the additional blessings
presented along the way.
I can be at peace with the
station wagon because I
recognize the driving factor in
getting it was being blessed with
children, and a wife. I am
thankful for God’s act of creating
them and the continued blessings
brought through them.
I encourage you to take the
advice of the psalmist. Look to
God. Acknowledge God. Let
others know what God has done.
It is only then that your soul can
rest and you can be at peace in
all circumstances. ■

are really excited about
the potential and what
it brings.”
These airmen are
working to figure how
to work remotely
piloted aircraft with
manned aircraft, he
said, and they are the
ones figuring how
microminiaturization
technology can be used
and what it will bring
to the table.
But there will be
more traditional jobs,
too, Welsh said with a
smile.
“We’re going to get
the same kind of people
who we’ve gotten for
years,” the general said.
“They want to fly the
F-22, the F-35, the
X-wing fighter. Those
people still want to
come do this and we’ll
have options for them
in the future.”
Some of the systems
the Air Force has in the
current inventory will
still be in use in 2035,
but what is carried
aboard these platforms
will bring new
capabilities to the
service, the joint force
and the nation, Welsh
said.
“A lot of how the Air
Force looks will depend
on what the budget
looks like and what the
economy looks like,” he
said. “It could look a lot
more robust, it could
look a lot more modern,
or it could look like it
does today. The danger
is that we settle for
that. That won’t be
good for us.” ■

THE GOLD STANDARD
KYNG NCO raises right
hand for four-star general
By STAFF SGT. DAVID BOLTON
133RD MOBILE PUBLIC AFFAIRS DETACHMENT
For the fourth time in her 15-year
military career, Sgt. 1st Class Jennifer
Fulkerson took the oath to faithfully
defend the Constitution of the United
States. But it was the first time that
she raised her right hand for a fourstar general.
Fulkerson, assigned to the
Kentucky National Guard’s 223rd
Military Police Company, raised her
right hand as Gen. Frank Grass, chief
of the National Guard Bureau,
presided over the Saturday
re-enlistment ceremony at the
“Thunder Over Louisville” air show
held in Louisville, Kentucky.
“As a veteran, I’m proud to wear this
uniform,” Fulkerson said. “That’s why I
re-enlisted.”
Fulkerson’s decade-and-a-half of
service to her country includes three
deployments: one in Bosnia and two in
Iraq. She is decorated with the Purple
Heart, two Bronze Stars and the Army
Commendation Medal with the “V”
device for valor.
Unique Leadership Experience
“She has a lot of experience,” the
223rd MP Company’s commander,
Capt. Jacob Lee, said of Fulker-son.
“That gives her the ability to be very
calm in her decision-making. A lot of
the things we do, it’s not her first
go-around, so she doesn’t hesitate to
make a decision in the fog of war.”
Comrades who have deployed with
Fulkerson say she is the consummate
professional.
“She’s a really good
noncommissioned officer, she’s always
done what she supposed to do
and she has great personality,” said
Master Sgt. Mark Meunier, operations
noncommissioned officer with the
617th MP Company. “She uses her
experience from her civilian job and
applies it to the military side. That’s a
big bonus she has.”
As an MP, Fulkerson and her troops
are trained on a number of Army
manuals and tasks to include infantry
and explosive ordnance disposal. In her
duties as a platoon sergeant, Fulkerson
helps monitor and maintain access
areas to military compounds, as well as
ensure her Soldiers are taken care of.
“We can do entry control points,
road security, as well as internal
security where we patrol the gates,”
Fulkerson said. “We’re multipurpose
when it comes down to it. If it’s a task,
we’ll figure out how to do it because
when you’re deployed you have to do
everything.”
Like a ‘Mom’ to Soldiers
As a testament to her diligence in
looking out for those in her platoon,
Fulkerson was given the title of “Mom”
during her last deployment in 2011.
“I had a 15-PAX van with ‘soccer
mom’ written on the back of it in the
dust,” she said. “One of my guys drew
all the Soldiers in our group in the
back window. I give my guys anything
I can give them. I guess that’s why
they call me ‘Mom.’”
As a leader, Fulkerson said she
strives to impart the lessons she has
learned coming up through the ranks
to her Soldiers.
“Respect your elders—they know
what they’re talking about,” she said.
“Watch the older guys, learn what
they’re doing and do it. The hard times,
the horrible times, are the things that
glue you together. Embrace it.”
Fulkerson not only leads and guides
her Soldiers on the battlefield, but she
also mentors the students in her high
school mathematics class at Warren
East High School where she is known
as “Ms. Fulkerson.”
“The common question everybody
asks every year is, ‘Have you ever
killed anyone?’” Fulkerson said. “I
teach them to not do that to veterans
because it’s wrong. It’s a respect issue.”
Back on Duty
As the re-enlistment ceremony concluded, Fulkerson was congratulated
by 198th MP Battalion commander,
Maj. Timothy Starke—a gesture that
hit home with her.
“The thing that really made a
difference to us is when Maj. Starke
came up and congratulated us,”
Fulkerson said. “That’s the biggest
connection for us because he knows
our names. To me, that brings out the
family side of the Guard. It’s what
keeps us coming back.”
With the pomp and circumstance of
the ceremony at an end, Fulkerson
walked down the Second Street Bridge,
back into the swarming Thunder
crowd of roughly 500,000. Her mission?
To ensure the safety of her Soldiers
and attendees at the air show. ■

Boonesborough State Park holding
gathering for fort’s descendants
By ROB MINERICH
DEPARTMENT OF PARKS
Fort Boonesborough State Park is
planning a special weekend in June
dedicated to descendants of the
settlers who lived at the fort in the
late 1700s.
“A Gathering of Descendants” is
slated for June 13-14 and is open to
the public. The park plans to have
historical organizations on hand to
help guests with genealogical
research to see if they had family
members at the fort.
“Actual descendants, along with
those who think they may be descendants, are invited to visit this weekend and find out more about their
families who were at Fort Boonesborough,” said Parks Commissioner
Elaine Walker. “This should be a
fascinating weekend for anyone
interested in Kentucky history.”
The park will have information
about some of its earliest residents,
contacts for early Kentucky cemetery
locations and property records, muse-
um exhibits of artifacts from the original fort site, authors on hand to sign
books about the early days of the fort,
historical interpretation of the daily
lives, chores, skills, and trades of those
who came to Fort Boonesborough.
There will also be hands-on
activities planned such as splitting
wood, making candles, starting a fire
with flint and steel, throwing a
tomahawk and surveying land.
“I think this is a huge don’t-miss
event,” said Steven Caudill, a re-enactor from Winchester who portrays
Daniel Boone and is a descendant of
Squire Boone, Daniel Boone’s brother.
“Anyone interested in frontier history
would want their family there.”
While Boone is the most famous
fort resident, the event is open to the
public and any other descendants of
families who were there.
Fort Boonesborough is located near
Richmond. From Interstate 75, take
Exit 95 to KY 627. On I-64, exit at

two-week period, Marines and
Sailors with the MEU will
conduct several concurrent and
overlapping training events to
test the unit’s capability to
perform the various mission sets
in which it requires proficiency
while afloat.
“The CERTEX is designed to
test the MEU in a broad range of
mission from combatting insurgencies, to more conventional
warfare operations like amphibious assaults, and even potential
humanitarian assistance and
relief missions,” said Maj. Trustun
Connor, EOTG intelligence officer.
“The goal is to fully test the
MEU’s abilities to operate as a
Marine Air-Ground Task Force
tailored to the area of operations
they are expected to be in.”
With the conclusion of
CERTEX, the 15th MEU will be a
combat ready, fully scalable, rapid

may be needed. ■
Dailey encourages all Soldiers to attend Ranger school
TRADOC
Sgt. Maj. of the Army
Daniel Dailey recently
visited Fort Benning,
Georgia, during the 2015
Best Ranger
Competition, and took
the time to share his
views on some of the
issues within the Army.
Among the topics he
addressed was the need
for Soldiers to be
prepared for complex
and unconventional
threats in the years
ahead.
“As we draw away
from Iraq and
Afghanistan and we look
around the world, there
are a lot of things
happening,” Dailey said.
“One of the most
important things that we
have to do as an Army
every day is to be ready.
“We have to be
prepared for the
uncertain,” he said.
“Today, we have
thousands of Soldiers
deployed and they have
to be prepared for
missions unlike any
we’ve done before. It
requires a lot of sacrifice,
it requires us to be
adaptive and think
outside the box and it
requires us to do all
those things in a time of
limited resources. I’m
proud to say we’re doing
a phenomenal job at it.”
One way, he said, to
prepare for those threats
is to continue the close
partnership between the
Army’s conventional and
special forces.
“We learned over 12
years about combining
our conventional and
special forces, and I
think we need to sustain
the things we’ve
learned,” Dailey said.
“Having a great leader
like Maj. Gen. Scott
Miller brings that skill
set to the Maneuver
Center of Excellence and
strengthens that bond
between conventional
and special forces. We
need to continue to work
together for the future
because complex
environments are going
to require that.”
Dailey also spoke
about the Army’s gender
integration efforts as the
first gender-integrated
Ranger course
assessment that began
April 15.
“We began the Best
Ranger Competition in
1982, and changes have
been added because
tomorrow always
represents opportunity
in our Army,” he said.
“Tomorrow brings
promise that someday
all Soldiers will have the
opportunity to serve our
Army to the fullest
extent of their
capabilities. All Soldiers,
who are capable of
achieving the standards,
will be afforded the
opportunity to wear the
coveted Ranger tab and
compete at Best Ranger.
“If they can shoulder
the same weight in their
rucksacks, foot march
the same distances in
their combat boots, rack
up the same hours of
sleep deprivation,
endure the same pangs
of hunger and maintain
the same physical
standards as their battle
buddy Rangers have,
they can endeavor to
become Rangers and
maybe one day, Best
Rangers,” he explained.
“I’m proud to be part of
this Army of change.
We’ve been changing for
239 years, and we will—
we must—continue to
change in the future.”
No matter their
gender, Dailey
encouraged all Soldiers
to seek the opportunity
to attend the Ranger
Course.
“It’s a (course) that
teaches our Soldiers to
find inner strength and
be the best they can be,”
he said. “I challenge
those Soldiers out there
to seek the opportunity
to go to Ranger school.
It’s hard and tough, and
it’s been that way since
it was first formed. It
will always be tough, but
those who seek the
challenges and overcome
them will be better
Soldiers tomorrow.” ■
“I was able
to obtain my
Bachelors in 24
months and my
MBA in 16 months.”

Science Center seeks youth for Curious Kids Board
Application deadline
is April 30
By HANNAH CLORE
COMMUNICATIONS COORDINATOR
KENTUCKY SCIENCE CENTER
As the opening date for
the Science Center’s
groundbreaking new early
childhood experience draws
nearer, they have announced
the creation of a new
Curious Kids Board to help
guide and champion some
serious play during the year
ahead.
“Science in Play,” powered
by PNCs Grow Up Great, is
set to open in July, but kids
ages 4-8 can apply now to be
a part of the Curious Kids
Board, who will serve for a
year and be given lifetime
memberships to the Science
Center.
Curious Kids Board
members will lead the July
2, press event marking the
official opening of “Science in
Play” as well as opening
activities with members and
the public, July 3-5. Curious
Kids Board members will
also be on hand for other
special events during the
summer and fall months in
“Science in Play.”
“These trailblazing little
scientists will join us in
kicking the tires on new
programs, spit-balling fresh
ideas and innovations,
critiquing offerings and
materials specifically
designed to serve our
early childhood audience,”
said Joanna Haas, executive
director at Kentucky Science
Center. “Over their one-year
term, our Curious Kids
Board will be essential to the
strength of “Science in Play”
and its impact on families
across the commonwealth.”
What does it take to be a
member of the Curious Kids
Board? Kentucky Science
Center is looking for budding
scientists between the ages
of 4-8 who can:
■ Act as an ambassador
for “Science in Play” and
Kentucky Science Center
■ Do science -
everywhere! Ask questions,
cultivate curiosity, think
creatively, and experiment!
Build buzz by telling
everyone they know about
Kentucky Science Center’s
“Science in Play” permanent
exhibit
■ Attend “Science in Play”
press event on July 2 at 10
a.m. and be available to
rehearse the day prior
■ Participate in special
events and activities after
opening day as needed, and
commit to at least six “play
program review” sessions
during the year with an
accompanying adult
■ Be able to speak clearly
■ Be able to understand
and follow directions well
■ Most importantly, have
fun, learn and play!
Candidates can apply by
submitting a 60-second video
on why they’d like to be a
part of the Curious Kids
Board by April 30. Details on
options for application can
be found online at
KYScienceCenter.org/kids/
curious-kids-board.
Selected candidates will
be chosen and contacted for
interviews by early May
2015. Winners, who will be
announced at the “Science in
Play” press event in July,
will be rewarded with a
lifetime membership to the
Science Center as well as a
year-long seat on the
Curious Kids Board. ■

Does NFL
commissioner
ignore
rap sheets
In light of last week’s
guilty verdict against
former New England
Patriots tight
end Aaron
Hernan-dez
for murder,
I began to
wonder if
the NFL
is
blatantly
Catrina
ignoring
Francis
its
Senior staff writer
player’s
rap sheets. I think NFL
Commissioner Roger
Goodell needs to do a
better job of holding
players accountable for
their actions.
After Hernandez was
arrested for murder, I
began to hear and read
about his lengthy rap
sheet.
Although he was a
standout athlete at the
University of Florida, it
didn’t take long before
he had his first
encounter with law
enforcement.
Shortly after arriving
at the school in 2007, he
was arrested for fighting.
The next month, September 2007, Hernandez
and three of his teammates were questioned
about a shooting. Before
being arrested for murder in 2013, he allegedly
killed two men outside of
a Boston nightclub. He
will be tried for this
crime since his current
trial has concluded. In
June 2013 he was sued
for shooting a person’s
eye out after they got
into an altercation at a
strip club.
Even though I believe
in second chances, the
writing was on the wall
that Hernandez would
probably have some
encounters with law
enforcement. However,
you shouldn’t punish
players for crimes they
might commit. I’m just
not sure how Goodell
could have foreseen such
legal problems as
murder.
The NFL mandates
all drafted players
attend the NFL Rookie
Symposium, which is
designed to help rookies
adjust to the professional
life and prepare for life
after football. It also
includes breakout
sessions concerning
off-the field situations.
Many of the players take
a lackadaisical approach
to it. In the past many of
the rookies have turned
their backs on the guest
speakers or stretched out
on chairs and blatantly
tuned out the speakers
and gone to sleep.
Goodell can’t make
players become lawabiding citizens, but he
can hit them in the
pocket and enforce fines
for this type of behavior.
Maybe if more players
paid attention to what’s
at stake they would
think twice before
committing a crime.
In the past two years
Goodell had the opportunity to show he’s a
disciplinarian with a
zero-tolerance policy for
those who break the law.
But he’s done the
opposite. Instead of being
proactive and having
rules in place for players
who commit acts such as
domestic violence,
Goodell has been
reactive for example, his

and the Joint Multinational Training Command.
Hundreds grind through brutal obstacle course
Rugged Terrain
Run popular
By SGT. KENNETH REED
JOINT MULTINATIONAL TRAINING
COMMAND
More than 350
participants competed in one
of the Army’s most grueling
races held annually at
Grafenwoehr, Germany.
The third annual
Grafenwoehr Rugged
Terrain Obstacle Run took
place April 11, grinding
participants through 15
kilometers and 20 obstacles.
The Rugged Terrain Run,
which is similar to the Tough
Mudder and Spartan Race,
has become a staple in the
Bavaria military community,
as well as among other
military communities
throughout Germany.
“I believe people
like to get dirty and have
fun while they compete, and
this is why I believe the
Rugged Terrain Run is
popular,” said Serge Kearse,
the sports and fitness
chief for USAG Bavaria’s
Family and Morale,
Welfare and Recreation.
Obstacles like the mud
crawl, the tire flip and the
monkey bars tested
competitors’ strength,
endurance and mental
toughness.
“I always wanted to
participate in something like
this but I never had the
opportunity,” said Sgt.
Roberto Rios, a human
resources sergeant. “When
all my co-workers told me
they were doing the race, I
decided to join them.”
Rios said his goal was to
complete the run in less than
an hour. He finished in one
hour and 59 minutes.
“It was definitely a

With constant smiles and yells of
enthusiasm, one Soldier said, while his goal is
to make the Army team for the Department of
Defense’s 2015 Warrior Games, he ultimately
enjoyed just being able to set personal records.

crowds chanting “Go

of inspiration.
“He was such an
inspiration to us all; no
matter what the sport or
who the athlete was, he
was everyone’s biggest
fan and supporter,” said
Sgt. Jodie Lemons, his

teammate. “He’s all
about the team.”
The final selections
for the Army team that
will compete during the
DOD Warrior Games
should be announced
later this month. The
games will be held at
Marine Corps Base

Hawkins, who serves
at the Fort Leonard

in the Marine Corps for

years and the Army

He joined the military in

Hawkins competed in

and 4X100 relay in track

not receive a medal but
he did achieve a
personal record.
“I did better than I
did last time,” he said
with a smile. “I didn’t
win, but I did complete
the races, and it felt
great. I haven’t run
track in probably over 20
years. To get back out
there after so many
years and actually finish
a race, it was a great
accomplishment.”
Hawkins has a tear in
his right shoulder,
injuries to both of his
elbows and a back injury
due to his time in service
and a combat
deployment in
Afghanistan in 2013. He
said adaptive sports are
helping him overcome
his injuries.
“I was introduced to
adaptive sports at Fort
Leonard Wood about a
year ago, and they are
motivating me to be
competitive again,” he
said. “Once you get
injured, you think you
can’t do the same things
you did prior to the
injury. Adaptive sports
have shown me that you
can alter the way you
move to compete in your
events and this has
motivated me in the
military and outside the
military with my Family.

Family.”
Hawkins encourages
anyone, who is still
struggling with recovery,
to consider adaptive
sports and to be patient
with their efforts.
“Don’t give up
because there is
definitely a light at the
end of that tunnel,” he
said. “You might not see
it right then and there
but if you give up, you
lessen your chances of
seeing that light. If you
keep pushing forward
and going forward,
you’re eventually going
to come to that light.
Don’t stop. You might
feel you want to stop, but
as somebody told me, ‘As
long as you keep putting
one foot in front of the
other, you’re moving in
the right direction.’ If
you start moving
backward, you start
moving away from the
goal.”
Hawkins said he feels
the Army Trials and
DOD Warrior Games
are important because of
the teamwork they
bring.
“It brings us together
and shows that we are
still an Army of one,” he
said. “We still have that
same goal of teamwork
and accomplishment,
and it shows the rest of
the world that the Army
doesn’t leave any Soldier
behind. We strive to be
competitive and achieve
to complete the mission.
We come together, we
compete, we have fun;
and we motivate each
other and help each
other. It’s been an honor
and a privilege.” ■
Commentary: Being proactive key to solving NFL problem
Army Trials: Help with PTSD
■ From Page B1
■ From Page B1
Baltimore Ravens running back
Ray Rice punched out his then
fiancé, Janay Palmer, in an elevator.
Rice initially received a twogame suspension from Goodell. It
was only after the Baltimore
Ravens cut Rice and a videotaped
surfaced which showed the
brutality of the abuse did the
commissioner hand out an
indefinite suspension. After
appealing this decision, Rice was
reinstated November 2014, but he
has yet to find a new NFL team.
I was also baffled as to why
Goodell didn’t have a policy in place
which addressed this issue. It would
take a public outcry before the NFL
had a tangible punishment for offenders. In August 2014 Goodell
announced a new policy with
harsher punishments which stated
that first-time offenders will receive
a six-game suspension and secondtime offenders will receive a
lifetime ban.
I wish I could say there are only
a few isolated incidents of NFL
players being arrested for allegedly
committing acts of domestic
violence and it’s not a problem, but
it is. It’s the worst category with
arrests rates, according to Jeff Ben-
edict, the author of “Pros and Cons.”
Domestic violence is one of the
many crimes which have surfaced
among NFL players. Last year,
former New Orleans Saints and
Green Bay Packers safety Darren
Sharper was accused of nine rapes
in five states.
On March 23, Sharper plead no
contest to drugging and raping women. He received a nine-year prison
sentence. He will be sentenced in
July for crimes in California and
will plead guilty to attempted
sexual assault in Nevada.
Although Sharper wasn’t
accused of rape while he was an
active player, I find it hard to
believe he became a serial rapist
after retiring. Goodell can’t be
blamed for these crimes. The only
way he could have been proactive
about rape and drugging women is
to tell the players to not engage in
such behavior because it’s a crime.
But, players don’t need the NFL
commissioner telling them it’s a
crime to rape and drug women.
Adam “Packman” Jones is the
epitome of what’s wrong with the
NFL. Since Pacman has been in the
league, he’s been arrested eight
times for crimes ranging from
assault and felony vandalism, drug
possession, disorderly conduct to
public intoxication and resisting
arrest. He’s been suspended for a
season and received a six-game
suspension.
I believe it’s this type of behavior
and lack of accountability which
drives the high incidents and
arrests in the NFL. OK, I admit it
seems as if players are running
rampant in the NFL, but this isn’t
necessarily true because compared
to the other professional leagues,
NFL rosters have about 60 to 90
players.
Although there are more players
on NFL rosters, Goodell needs to
figure out how he’s going to police
the league and do it on a consistent
basis. He shouldn’t pick and choose
who’s going to receive severe
punishments. I also believe the days
of multiple arrests should go to the
wayside. If I break the law and
know there aren’t any real
consequences, I will continue to do
what’s wrong until someone holds
me accountable for my actions.
Can this problem be fixed? I
think the NFL can be policed, but
there will still be some players who
commit crimes because they are
going to do it no matter the
consequences. ■
Exchange day nurtures relationships
By RICHARD RZEPKA
USAG OKINAWA
The gymnasium at
Torii Station echoed with
Japanese and English
cheers and applause
March 14 as dozens of
local residents from
Yomitan Village
assembled with their
Army neighbors to
participate in the seventh
annual U.S.—Japan
Sports Exchange Day.
More than 80 residents
from Sobe Ward, Toguchi
Ward and Oki Ward were
welcomed by officials from
U.S. Army Garrison—
Okinawa, the Okinawa
Defense Bureau and 73
members of the U.S. Army
Family for some friendly
competition, food and fun.
Eight teams competed for
top honors in a beanbag
toss, a no-holds-barred
five colored-tug-of-war
and a wild three-legged
race, but in the end the
combined sense of
community came out on
top.
“The Sports Exchange
Day with the people of
Yomitan, in partnership
with the Okianwan
Defense Bureau, is
another great example of
the Army’s commitment to
nurturing positive
relationships with the
community and local
leaders,” said Garrison
Commander, Col. Eric
Martinez. “What I saw
today was inspiring ... in
that any notion of
barriers, like language or
culture, was quickly
melted away with the
positive attitudes and
smiles of our neighbors
and Army Family.
Friendly competition
tends to bring out the best
in people and this was a
great example of the
symbiotic relationship
that we all hope to achieve
with our partners in the
Pacific.”
While sports and
games were the focus of
the event, a healthy
portion of culture and
tradition was served up as
well. At the game’s
conclusion, contestants
were treated to good ol’
fashioned American
hamburgers while being
entertained by the
Typhoon Twisters
gymnastics team, a
traditional Eisaa dance by
Sobe Ward children, a
Taiko drum performance
by children from Oki
Ward and a Karate
performance by Toguchi
Ward children.
Okinawa Defense
Bureau deputy director
general, Maki Koyanagi,
in his closing remarks,
said that the importance
of the Sports Exchange
Program comes from the
cooperation and support of
the local community. The
relationship between the
local residents and the
Army was deepened after
they overcame the
language barrier, helped
each other and had good
time together through the
games, he said.
For many who
participated, being able to
personalize the bond by
putting a face to the
words Army or Yomitan,
helps strengthen the
concept of community
here while opening lines
of communication through
shared experience.
“Events like the sports
day are vital to
establishing the two-way
communication necessary
to work as partners in our
one community,” said
Army participant Casey
Grimmer. “Bringing down
the fences on post for a
day and using a little
friendly competition to get
all sides moving, talking
and working together was
a great idea,” he said.
Grimmer said that he
appreciated the fact that
this was an activity-based
event and not observational, as some of the cultural
exchanges tend to be.
“The language of
competition is universal
and that really showed,”
he said. “I hope our
Okinawan hosts come
away seeing how alike we
really are and that we’re
capable of having a good
time. During the different
competitions I saw
nothing but smiles and
laughter on all sides …
and as we all know, that’s
infectious. I hope the next
time our Okinawan hosts
see us they’ll remember
the sports day with a
smile on their face,” said
Grimmer. ■
pulling the bow back to get any kind of
consistency, the aim, the shot process,
everything about it,” he said. “When
you’re in that thought of making that
shot or pulling the bow back or even in
practice, you’re so focused on that. It
calms you. It takes your mind off
everything else. It’s an amazing thing.
It’s just you and your bow. It’s the same
thing with the rifle competition. When
you start to feel anxious, you can
literally watch your site bounce up and
down as your heartbeat increases, so it
makes you learn how to calm down and
breathe.”
Vosburg said that adaptive sports
have helped him find his new normal and
that others continue to inspire him.
“As bad as I feel sometimes, I see
others who are in a whole lot worse
shape off than I am, and they’re still
competing with a smile on their face
every day, and it drives me to do even
better,” he said. “My Family, friends, who
also have PTSD—we talk a lot, we do
things together, and we try to live the
new norm. I’ve learned that disability is
not an inability; it’s just a new ability
that you didn’t know you had.
“When I was at Nellis, I watched a guy
who was a double above-the-knee
amputee talk about how he didn’t truly
know what he was capable of doing until
he thought he was capable of doing
nothing else. That drives me to fight
through my injuries, my pain, and (to) do
something besides sit around and mope
about being hurt. Life’s too short. I’ve
never been one to give up, and this gives
me another reason not to,” he said.
Vosburg, who served 29 years total in
the Army, with 15 years on active duty,
said competing in the Army Trials has
been the highlight of his Army career.
“Competing in these trials has
changed my life forever,” he said. “I have
a whole new outlook and perspective on
everything about life so I would
recommend it to anyone. It’s been
incredible. I wouldn’t trade this. This has
been the greatest experience of my career
out of everything I’ve done, whether it
was tanks, infantry, transportation or
being an instructor. Right here, seeing
these people—they drive me to be better,
it’s amazing.”
Vosburg encouraged Soldiers who are
considering trying out for future Army
Trials to give it a shot.
“Regain that bond of serving alongside
your brothers and sisters in arms by
competing in events like this with
veterans, double and triple amputees,” he
said. “It just drives you to realize that
your life’s not over; it’s just beginning.
Find something new. Give yourself a
reason to fight. You’re going to make
lifelong friendships. It’s an incredible
thing.”
Whether he makes the team or not,
Vosburg said he will continue to shoot
and is going back to school to become a
PTSD counselor so that he can help his
fellow veterans. ■
