NGAA West Newsletter for December 2014 Page 1
By Jim Mohan
Well you can tell it is that time of year once again. The
festive decorations can be seen everywhere. The local malls
and shopping centers are alive with the sounds of Christmas
carols. Yes, there is no denying it. Once again it is time for
the annual NGAA Holiday Party.
As in years past, December’s meeting will be chock full of
entertainment and goodies. Our VP Marilyn Chryst has
come up with some outstanding entertainment, the
renowned Michael Farmer, who will be sure to have us all
in the holiday spirit. There will be plenty of goodies and
cheer to go around, so I hope you can make it.
This will be my last column as President, so I wanted to
take the opportunity send out a big thank you to Bob
Bentrup, for all of his hard work the last eight years as our
Mailing Committee Chairperson. Like the U.S. Post Office
Bob has let neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of
night stay him from his swift completion of getting our
newsletter into your hands. I also want to thank Pat Reed
for accepting the job as Bob’s replacement.
On the subject of transition, a few others of our stalwarts
are looking to pass the baton. Jimmie Hilterbrand is looking
for someone to take over his job as Vice President of
Membership, and Bob Eddy is still looking for a
replacement as Treasurer. The duties are posted in the next
column of this newsletter. If you are interested, please let
me know. Both gentlemen have done an outstanding job,
but they feel it is time for someone else to take the reins, so
please consider throwing your hat into the ring.
One more transition I would like to address is my own. As
we come to the end of 2014, it is time to reflect on the past
twelve months and think about our many blessings. Among
the things I am most grateful for this past year is the support
of my fellow officers and the members of NGAA West
during my year as President of this outstanding
organization. I couldn’t have done it without your
encouragement and assistance. Now is time to turn over the
gavel (I guess we have a gavel somewhere) to someone I
know who will do an outstanding job as your new
President, Marilyn Chryst. She has done a remarkable job
as Executive Vice President and I know Marilyn will
continue to do great things as she takes on her new
assignment.
Once again, I want to thank all of you for your support
during the last year. It has been an honor and a privilege.

These NGAA West members attended the alumni day held on November 6 at the NGA West campus. How many can you identify?
Jessica Daues, NGA Office of Corporate Communications
Fifty-two NGA alumni were welcomed back to NGA’s
Second Street facility for briefs, lunch and tours on
Thursday, November 6 for NCW Alumni Day.
Feedback from alumni also is a valuable resource in helping
NGA move the agency forward and achieve its goals and
vision, McCarthy said.
Alumni Day is part of an initiative to establish greater
engagement, collaboration and mutual support with former
NGA employees.
For their part, many alumni said they appreciated the
opportunity to visit and learn more about what the agency
and their old colleagues are doing. “What I found really
interesting is what NGA is doing to help fight Ebola,” said
Joe Pfeifer, who retired in 1998. “I don’t think when I was
here we even had any thoughts about doing something like
that.”
On this occasion NGA experts gave presentations on West
facilities modernization, the agency’s efforts to fight Ebola
and terrorism, updates on the Targeting process and a
demonstration of the Map of the World. The alumni also
had the opportunity to tour the NGA Operations Center and
Museum and to meet with former colleagues for lunch.
The day kicked off with comments from Chief Operating
Officer Ellen McCarthy, who welcomed the alumni and
provided presentations on initiatives such as the
Intelligence Community Desktop Environment (IC DTE),
Director Robert Cardillo’s SPARK blog, portfolio
management and encouraging women to pursue science,
technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields.
Maintaining a strong relationship with its alumni is “critical
to the well-being of the agency,” McCarthy said. “It’s so
good to see you all here,” she added. “Through you, we
really get a better sense of our history, of lessons learned.”
“In my time, the agency was very much oriented toward
supporting the military,” said Gordon Barnes, who retired
in 1984. “It seems that we’ve branched out very much
toward civilian requirements.”
Many alumni observed that the most striking difference
between the organizations that they worked for and NGA
now is the use of technology. Robert Swanson, who retired
in 1985, recalled that “floors and floors” of aerial
photographs were needed for building charts. Now, most of
NGA’s work is done on computers. “The change in
technology is overwhelming,” he said.
Another Alumni Day was held November 5 at NCE

Fifty-two retirees and guests enjoyed a very delicious lunch
at Pietro’s on Sep 24 followed by songs performed by
Elizabeth LaKamp. All three entrees were given rave
reviews. Marilyn Chryst led us in the Pledge of Allegiance
and Bob Eddy led us in the invocation.
Before lunch, Jim Mohan introduced our guests at the
luncheon - John Miller and his son, Pete; Sherry Schwaab,
wife of Don Schwaab; and Linda Schmieder, wife of LeRoy
Schmieder. It was good to see John again. He moved to
Mesa, Ariz. after his retirement. Jim reminded us that if we
want to attend NGA’s open house on Nov 6, we must get
our requests in by Oct 1, and that we will have a change of
Director at NGA as of October 3. Also, NGAA-West is
looking
for
replacements
for
the
following
officers: treasurer, membership, and mailing.
50/50 Winners: LeRoy Schmieder, Bob Meinhardt, Bob
Eddy, Pat Reed, John Miller, Gene Sylvester (2), Dale
Winters, Larry Knopfel, Wells Huff, Jimmie Hilterbrand,
Barb Speiser, and Gordon Barnes.
Annual dues for 2015 can be paid beginning with this
newsletter. The dues should be sent to the NGAA West
mailbox listed on page one.
As official sponsor of NGAA West, the Arsenal Credit
Union (ACU) continues its policy of subsidizing new
NGAA-West lifetime memberships. The ACU will
reimburse $40 toward a lifetime membership of $100 for
any new applicant who was been an ACU member for a
year.
The following rules apply:
1. Retirees must be members in good standing of Arsenal
Credit Union for a minimum of one year.
2. Reimbursement is limited to $40 toward a lifetime
membership with NGAA-West.
3. Retirement from NGA must have occurred after 31
January 2013.
4. Retirees must provide their ACU account number with
their application.
After your application id processed, NGAA West will
notify ACU of your membership. The ACU will credit your
ACU account with $40 after the ACU has reviewed the
conditions and records. This offering will be reviewed by
ACU in 2015 to ascertain its success and to make any
modifications deemed appropriate at that time. The link to
the ACU web site is arsenalcu.org
NGAA West welcomes three new members.
We hope to see them at future luncheons.

This year's version of the Thursday Invitational Bowling
League began its season on September 4th, again at Sunset
Lanes where we've been ensconced since 2009.
Once again we fell short of an even number of teams (11)
so we must include a "blind" team in our schedule. This
affords a different team each week time to hone their skills
against no one but themselves. However, this is not always
an easy task since the league rule states that the 4-man team
must come within 40 pins of its average each game. That
means each bowler must bowl within 10 pins of his average
each game. Many times the final scores reveal that a team
has not fulfilled that requirement and they lose points on
the night. So, it's not just a time when you can sit around
and shoot the breeze and maybe down a few. You still have
to concentrate and bowl very close to your average, or
possibly better.
As of the first week of November we were nine weeks into
the new season and at that time the team with the most
seasoned veterans (Harry Lemakis and Jack Harmon) was
leading last year's victors (The Marauders, starring Jeff
Delaplain et al) by 3 points. The first half of the season will
end sometime in December and it's really anyone's guess as
to who will be on top at that time. Any of the eleven teams
could get hot during the final weeks of the first half and
come out on top. To see who does, we invite any folks who
might know any of us to try this sport and come to Sunset
Lanes on Watson Road on any Thursday at 4 p.m. Perhaps
you'll see someone you've not seen in years enjoying
themselves at this timeless sport.
By Doug Nolte
The NGAA West Golf Group held its annual final outing at
the wonderful Whitmoor Country Club October ninth.
As is our normal ritual we let the players select their own
special four-man teams for the final outing, instead of
depending on the reliable computer to generate the teams
as is done for the other 25 outings during the regular season.
Many of the golfers look forward to this outing so they can
play with their closest friends at least once during the halfyear season that we manage to play; so it was with great
anticipation that 134 golfers prepared for a good round of
golf with friends.
Didn't happen. The weather let us down. The rains came
and washed away all our dreams. What made matters worse
was that the phone system was down at the course and
people couldn't even call in to ask if the course was open (a
requirement for us to play), or to tell those of us who were
there that they wouldn't/couldn't make it even for the
special luncheon set up for the day.
NGAA West Newsletter for December 2014 Page 5
Final attendance tally was actually pretty good; 117 of us
sat down at the noon luncheon and were treated to some
wonderful food prepared by the chef(s) at this very nice
facility. The only sad part was the lack of golf the final day
and the normal discussions around the tables.
The next luncheon will be December 11, 2014. All are
welcome. This last luncheon of the year is normally well
attended, so please come.
By Monica Sharp
Our slate for next season is being contemplated right now,
and it appears that we will concentrate our more upscale
(private/semi private) courses on successive Mondays
instead of the random way we handled it this past season,
which resulted in some confusion in going from Thursday
to Monday to Thursday in some situations. Again, we will
strive for 26 outings, beginning about the third week in
April and ending the second week in October. There will
be a kickoff meeting the first week in December to lay the
ground work for the new season.
The Needle Navigators are finishing the year with a burst
of activity.
The annual CFC quilt (shown below} was completed and
tickets printed for a drawing at the end of the campaign.

Hilterbrand, Jim Johnson, Don Neubacher, John Novak,
Kevin Perry, Jim Raby, Larry Rambo, Gene Sylvester,
Danny Wells, Ed Wright, Dale Winters and Jim Wynn.
The group is for retired DMAAC/NIMA/NGA employees
who want to enjoy the camaraderie. It is not restricted to
Points, and several of the attendees never worked in Points.
The Points Group meets at 11 a.m. the first Wednesday of
each month at the Hometown Buffet on South Lindbergh.
Future luncheons are scheduled for December 3, January 7,
February 4 and March 4 at the Hometown Buffet on South

Four NN members made thirteen stockings for the
Landstuhl Hospital Care Project--Stitches of Love. The
project goal is to send over 500 stockings to our service
members. The Needle Navigators who made stockings this
year are Sandi Fleming, Susan Houser, Donna Kurk, and
Sandy Tunnicliff.

The Negative Engravers monthly luncheon was held at El
Maguey Restaurant Concord Plaza, on Thursday,
November 13, 2014. Attendees were John Carty, Don
Lippold, Rich Egan, Larry Weisz, Ernie South, Harry
Lemakis and Libby Lanning.

Sew-In, working on
Quilts of Valor

Linus quilts and their
own projects.
(Example at left.)
Members also
continue to make
pillow cases that are
donated to charity.
The group also remembered Rose Donnell in several ways
this year. Rose passed away a year ago last September. At
the time of her death, the group was working on a quilt
block round robin. In this round robin, each participant put
together a set of requirements and possibly some fabrics in
a packet. This packet was passed through the group on a
monthly basis for the year. Members finished Rose’s
blocks and then Camille Willman, Sandy Tunnicliff, Sue
Houser and Donna Kurk put the blocks together in four wall
quilts which were given to Rose’s family for her
grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Rose’s family
gifted the group with fabric, books, patterns and notions
from Rose’s stash. These items will be put to good use by
the members and Rose will be remembered.
Several years ago, after Susan Glass died, her husband
Bobbi donated her fabric and craft materials stash to the
group. There were a large number of calico prints. These
prints were cut up by Brenda Walsh and put into kits to
make Sudoku quilts. Three of these quilts were completed
this year by Donna Kurk, Sandy Tunnicliff and Camille
Willman.
Cindy Neville was part of a group of eight that made a quilt
that was shown at the International Quilt Festival in
Houston, TX October 29-November 2.
The quilt shown
here, titled Amazing
Aztec-nicolor
Dream, won a
BLUE ribbon in the
Group Quilt
category in this
prestigious show
plus a cash award of
$1000. Cindy had
another quilt in the
show as
well. Check out
http://www.quilts.org/winners.html to see all the
winners. These quilts are fabulous!
The meeting schedule for 2015 is as follows: Meetings will
continue to be held in the classroom at Jackman’s Fabric
Store, 1234 North Lindbergh in Creve Couer, from 1 to 4
p.m. on the following dates: January 16, February 20,
March 20, April 17, May 15, June 5, August 21, September
18, October 16 and November 13.
Membership is open to all current and retired NGA
employees, spouses or friends. There are no dues. You do
not need to be a quilter; if you want to learn, we can teach
you.
If you are interested in learning more about the group or
our projects, please contact Monica Sharp,

From the St. Louis Post Dispatch in early November, forwarded by
NGAA West’s Jerry Lenczowski
The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency started with
six possible locations to replace its existing Western
Headquarters in St. Louis, and now they are down to four.
The agency said on Monday that it has dropped two
locations, the North Park development in north St. Louis
County and the Weldon Spring location near Chesterfield,
from consideration. The agency said after initial reviews
neither of the sites meet NGA requirements.
Now, the agency will conduct environmental reviews of the
four remaining locations:
• Fenton (the site of the old Chrysler plant along Interstate
44)
• Mehlville (at the Met Life facility on Tesson Ferry Road,
between Interstate 270 and Highway 141)
NGAA West Newsletter for December 2014 Page 7
• North St. Louis (the site of the old Pruitt-Igoe housing
complex near Cass and Jefferson avenues)
• St. Clair County (site adjacent to Scott Air Force Base
along Interstate 64)
The high-tech spy agency is currently located south of
downtown St. Louis near the Anheuser-Busch Brewery.
The agency, which employees 3,000 people at the St. Louis
city location, said in June that its current complex, which
dates back to before the U.S. Civil War, was outdated and
needed to be replaced. A secondary location in Arnold will
not be relocated, according to officials.
Next month, the Army Corp of Engineers will hold three
public meetings in the St. Louis area about the
relocation: Dec. 9, St. Louis Gateway Classic Foundation,
2012 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, St. Louis, 4 to 6
p.m.; Dec. 10, Katy Cavins Community Center, 308 East
Fifth Street, O’Fallon, Ill., 4 to 6 p.m.; Dec. 11, Crestwood
Community Center, 9245 Whitecliff Park Lane,
Crestwood, 4 to 6 p.m.
The environmental study is expected to take 18 to 24
months. The decision on where the facility will move won't
be made until 2016, according to officials. The move won't
happen until 2021 or 2022.
The current Directories of West Chapter and East Chapter
members are available on the NGAAW web site. The
Directory is for members only.

article can be longer but should not exceed one Pathfinder
page (about 600 words). If possible, all submissions should
include a photo or artwork and quotes from persons or
documents.
The article should be in Word format, text only. Each
graphic submitted must be a separate .jpg file with a
minimum resolution of 300 dpi for a 4x6 inch image.
Graphics should have captions and credits.

CORRECTION
In its September story “NGA and Scouting,” the NGAA
West newsletter incorrectly stated that Steve Pedone has
worked in civil service, the military and for defense
contractors. The sentence should have read, “I haven’t
been surprised, over the years of my career at NGA, to
meet and work with many former Scouts and Eagle Scouts
serving in civil service, the military and as defense
contractors.” The story also incorrectly stated that Steve’s
career was primarily in Intelligence. He points out,
“Intelligence was not my primary role. During my career in
the Air Force, the Air Force Cartographic/Geodetic Officer
was a unique career field and not part of the Intelligence
career field. My secondary career field was Intelligence.”
Steve’s wife's name was misspelled. It is "Ximena." We
apologize for the misstatements and the misspelling.
Members who are interested should contact Wells Huff, the
newsletter editor, at [email protected] any other
NGAA West Board member. You will receive an email
notification identifying a subject for your article and a date
when the article needs to be received.
