Working with mines - no room for error

From Joint Base Charleston Public Affairs

A multi-pronged team comprised of the 628th Civil EngineerSquadron and members of the Environmental ProtectionAgency, the U.S. Coast Guard, Department of Health andEnvironmental Control, and Moran Environmental Recovery,responded to a fuel leak that occurred on base July 16, 2014, atapproximately 6:31 p.m., due to a mechanical failure.An estimated 1,200 gallons of the fuel, called Jet Fuel A,

escaped through a storm drain as a result of torrential rainsduring the clean-up effort, transporting the fuel underDorchester Road and into an off-base ditch. Most of the fuelwas contained in the first of three cleanup stations, where itwas caught by a series of devices called booms and removedusing vacuum trucks and fuel-absorbent pads. The effort con-tinued at the other two sites as well, but the amount of fuelprogressively diminished further downstream. "The inspection of the Ashley River boom revealed no fur-

ther fuel collection or pooling," Capt. Timothy Sparks, JointBase Charleston deputy commander said.The base's emergency response contractor, Moran

Environmental Recovery, responded to the areas impacted offbase and conducted cleanup efforts at a drainage ditch that

runs between Jerry Zucker Middle School and Great Oak andNorth Palm View Drives near the Ashley River Commonsneighborhood.On July 21, 2014, the Moran Environmental Recovery

team stood down its four-day operation and handed over thefinal stages of the cleanup to the 628th CES, which will con-tinue to concentrate on removing any remaining fuel by usingbooms to separate the fuel from the water. They will also con-tinue to monitor the sites regularly for the next few weeks,according to Luis Classaviles, 628th CES chief of environ-mental management.The two downstream sites ceased showing any significant

amounts of fuel, as of an inspection early July 19. Advisors from the Environmental Protection Agency

returned to Atlanta early July 21, due to the success of thecleanup effort. "I'm very satisfied with the work I've seen and grateful for

the help of our partners in Moran Environmental Recovery,the Coast Guard, Environmental Protection Agency andDepartment of Health and Environmental Control," said Col.Jeffrey DeVore, 628th Air Base Wing commander. "They'vebeen instrumental in making this cleanup effort proceed safe-ly and swiftly."

Is there an upcoming deployment or Permanent Change ofStation coming up in your career? Most of us know all too well the stressors and challenges

that come with relocating, and when the move is a result of alast minute tasking or assignment notification, the challengesonly multiply. But thanks to the Service Member Civil ReliefAct some of the fiscal challenges can be mitigated with propereducation and planning. SCRA is a federal statute containing a series of provisions

that are designed (and continually amended) to protect servicemembers while they are answering their nation's call. A deploying member may terminate a residential lease if they

are tasked to support a military operation for a period of not lessthan 90 days. Service members must deliver written notice to thelandlord, along with a copy of their orders. Delivery must be byhand, private business carrier or mailed, return receipt requested,to the address designated by the landlord. The effective date oftermination after proper notice has been given is 30 days after thefirst date on which the next rental payment is due. If a member wishes to terminate an automobile lease, they

must be deploying for a period of not less than 180 days.Notice must be given in the same manner as terminating a res-

idential lease and the vehicle must be returned within 15 daysof delivery of notice. If a member has not received his/her mil-itary orders, a signed Memorandum for Record from themember's commanding officer is sufficient. Contact your firstsergeant or the legal office to obtain an MFR template for youand your commanding officer to complete.The protections in place for a PCS are very similar and

require the same notice and paperwork (military orders/signedMFR from your commanding officer). However, to break a vehicle lease there are a few differ-

ences. Active-duty members may terminate their automobilelease if, after they entered the lease, they received militaryorders for a change of permanent station from the continentalUnited States to a location outside the continental UnitedStates (OCONUS) or a PCS from an OCONUS state to anylocation outside of that state. Activated reservists and NationalGuardsmen may terminate automobile leases if the lease wasentered into prior to being activated and the orders are for atleast 180 continuous days.This article is not intended to replace seeking legal advice

from an attorney. Legal assistance is provided at the Air Baseon Tuesdays from noon to 1 p.m. for military in uniform andfrom 1 to 3 p.m. for everyone else. Legal assistance is avail-able at the Weapons Station on a walk-in basis Mondays from8 to 11 a.m. and Fridays by appointment from 8 a.m. to noon.Call 963-5502 for all inquiries and appointments.

JOINT BASE MCGUIRE-DIX-LAKEHURST, N.J. – "Hey ma'am,can we have a feedback session before you leave for your course?"Most of us would not ask their supervisors to initiate feedback, but the

new Airman Comprehensive Assessment promises supervisee input andthat promise is tempting enough to initiate feedback.Although it seemed a bit daunting at first to learn how to use the new

form, I was excited to see how the Air Force is implementing change inthe enlisted feedback system to further develop the enlisted core intowell-rounded, resilient Airmen.I will preface my experience with the new form by saying I was not a

fan of the previous feedback form. The old feedback process wouldrequire me to prepare myself for what seemed like an hour-long scoldingsession, even when my rater had good things to say. The situation justseemed to leave Airmen powerless of how their official records wouldreflect on them.Immediate relief washed over me as we began the feedback session

and my voice in the matter was half of the feedback. My supervisor wasstill able to comment, criticize and write down standards expected of meto uphold.She was able to get her messages and expectations across to me in a

more relaxed, conversational format, as opposed to the strict way theold feedback was performed. I definitely feel the back-and-forth conver-sation helped us find common grounds and a better understanding foreach other's expectations, and others will undoubtedly notice this aspectas well.We traversed the checklist including responsibility, accountability

and Air Force culture, where we each rated myself in the categories,before moving on to the components carried over from the previousfeedback form.My supervisor and I were thorough and honest in the job performance,

community involvement and self-improvement sections of the assess-ment, which are the areas most enlisted Airmen are already familiar with.The section has phrases next to the ratings including most Airmen, someAirmen and few Airmen, to help you figure out where you would placeyourself in comparison to your peers. Hopefully, this new system encour-ages honesty and accountability in more Airmen to eliminate the skewed"firewall five" ratings which were far too prevalent in the past.The experience with the new assessment was great, minus a few hic-

cups understanding how it works, and it allowed my supervisor and me abetter opportunity to set goals and measure performance in my job andpersonal life. Anyone who transitions from the old feedback system tothis new one will notice the day-and-night difference.

THINK BEFORE YOU STRIKE.

JB CHS NEWS

By Chief Master Sgt. Victoria GambleAir Mobility Command command chief

SCOTT AIR FORCE BASE, Ill. – I recently visited my alma mater andalthough it doesn't have a football team, cheerleaders, or a mascot, it does pro-vide a terrific gateway opportunity to secondary education. The Community College of the Air Force has been around since 1972 and is

accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission onColleges. By the way, that's the same accreditation held by schools like AuburnUniversity, Duke University, and the University of Georgia just to name a few. I call the CCAF the "gateway college" because it leads to a future and signif-

icant risk of being involved with even higher levels of education. For 29 percent of my alma mater's students, the CCAF enabled them to be

the first person in their family to earn a degree. What's more is the CCAFdegree builds students' confidence and becomes a catalyst for even higher leveldegrees. Once you start attending class, you will quickly realize you actuallyenjoy learning.Learning is the gift that keeps on giving. It allows you to think critically and

solve work issues, prepares you to be competitive in the work force after AirForce service, and most of all; promotes life-long learning. While students from other colleges will enjoy sororities and reunions, I will

rejoice in the fact that the Community College of the Air Force opened a doorto my education that I will always be grateful for. Not too shabby for a schoolwithout a football team.

My Alma Mater

GRAND FORKS AIR FORCE BASE,N.D. – As a young child, you don't thinkmuch if someone doesn't show up whenthey're supposed to because you have bet-ter, "more important" things to worryabout; like bugs and dolls. They're justanother shape flashing around you in yourown little world.Occasionally, a child will stop and ask a

question about the sky, or their toys, orwhere their parent is. The answer alwaysseems to be, "Oh Honey, they're right overthere," and life goes on without a hitch.When I stopped playing one night in 1998and asked the question, "Daddy, when isMommy coming home?" it brought every-one around to a sudden halt. My fathercleared his throat and blinked a few times, obvi-ously taken by surprise that his 3-year-old was ask-ing this question so early. He replied quietly,"Mommy isn't coming home sweetie... she's livingwith the angels now." My mother was killed in ahead-on collision March 24, 1997, as a result ofdrinking and driving.That wasn't the beginning of her relationship

with alcohol, however. Her decision to drivehome after drinking this night was not her firsttime doing so. It was a regular thing.Consumption of alcohol, or rather the inability tostop consuming it, had ruined my parents' rela-tionship. Already in the process of divorce, theyhad been fighting that particular day over mymother breaking into my grandparents' liquor cab-inet. The attempt to lie was immediately wipedaway with the first glance of her. So she decidedthat she would leave, she tried to bring me alongwith her but my father was able to wrestle meaway. My dad wasn't worried, he thought shewould take a walk down the street to calm down;he thought he had the keys. Little did he know,she had a spare set made. Almost running himover in his attempt to stop her, she sped off.My father got remarried to a wonderful woman

six months later and because I didn't understand, Ididn't act like anything was wrong. It wasn't until Iwas five years old that I really, fully understoodwhere my mom had gone. People had stopped sug-arcoating things and telling me that I was "tooyoung to get it." Never wanting to upset thewoman I now called "Mom," I waited until I hadmy father alone to ask again, "Daddy, what reallyhappened to Mommy?" Judging from the look onhis face, he had thought he had some time beforeany real explanations had to be given. I quicklyapologized seeing the distressed look and got up torush to another room but he stopped me and said,"No, it's okay, I just didn't think I would have to dothis so soon...Your mother had a problem."A problem. That's what we hear today when

someone invites alcohol into their lives for toolong. A problem. A mistake. What my mother hadwas not simply a problem; my mother had a dis-ease. One that nobody cared to diagnose her withbecause that would mean their own failure. Shewould get sad and drink, she would get mad anddrink, and soon she had made any emotion anexcuse to drink. I grew older with conflictingimages of her. "She was a wonderful mother; sheloved you, so full of life and laughter." "Your

mother was a liar, a cheater, and adrunk." Yes. I had a woman whomarried my father, gave me a lit-tle sister, and took on the task oftaking care of me too. But therewas always a hole that couldn't befilled in me. I had questions thatpeople felt too guilty about toanswer. Did I do something sowrong that she needed to drinkagain? If she REALLY loved me,how could she be so careless? Iwas grieving years after everyoneelse had moved on.However, I learned to deal with

my own hurt and turned it intounderstanding and proactivity. Mymother was not the only person toever have alcoholism. I was notthe only person ever to lose some-

one this way nor would I be the last. I would notallow myself to be a victim, but an advocate. Theone thing that I took away from my own loss wasthat I never wanted anyone else to go through itagain. My family brushed her addiction under therug because addictions are ugly, they're taboo, anddeep down inside they didn't want to admit thattheir daughter, sister and granddaughter wasn'tokay. But the truth of the matter is she wasn't andothers aren't either.I urge you to help your wingmen. If you notice

that their "weekend fun" is turning into "everydayfun," say something. If you suspect that they'rehaving hard times, say something. Even betterthan that, DO something. Don't let them get inthat car after they've been drinking. We have somany resources that can help prevent the loss ofanother brother or sister in arms. Most people arenot willing to look at their own reflection and say"I have a problem. I need to stop." Help them.Love them. Support them.This disease is long-standing in my lineage. I

will be the one to end it. Will you do the samewith our Air Force family?

The Navy Operational Support Center Charleston cele-brated an entire year as the No. 1 "large" NOSC for NavyRegion Southeast Reserve Component Command, and 11months as the top ranked NOSC overall for that region, witha ceremony July 12, 2014, at Joint Base Charleston, S.C.The celebration included a cake cutting ceremony with

NOSC Charleston staff, 343 drilling Reserve Sailors and specialguest Rear Adm. Eric Young, deputy chief of Navy Reserve. "What NOSC Charleston has accomplished is truly impres-

sive and makes me proud. They are doing a fantastic job sup-porting their Sailors and it shows. As a part of our team, theymake the job of our Selected Reservists easier, more efficientand effective, and that affects the total force. Their customerssee their hard work, and they see that they care," said Young.NRSE RCC routinely evaluates and scores the NOSCs in its

region in 51 areas including training, medical and dental readi-ness, supply and logistics, command services and manpower. Prior to April 2013, NOSC Charleston was ranked 25th in

the region. By April 2013, the command jumped to No. 2. InMay 2013, NOSC Charleston came out on top against 27 otherNRSE RCC NOSCs, and has held that place for the past year. Cmdr. Shaun Murphy, NOSC Charleston commanding

officer, said he credits NOSC Charleston's success to their

emphasis on building relationships, the implementation ofnew internal processes and procedures, a dedicated staff andsuperb SELRES Sailors. "The success that we've had here is based primarily on

relationships," said Murphy. "This is a relationship busi-ness. Working with SELRES and FTS Sailors ... it's a mutu-al give and take. Our job is to provide reservists with thebest customer service that we possibly can, to help them gettheir job done."Murphy established a new motto when he took command

in January 2013, "Communicate, Educate, Collaborate,"which he said has been the cornerstone for their success. "We feel, first and foremost, that we have to maintain

constant open lines of communication between our staff andSailors," said Murphy. "Secondly, we educate our membersso that they understand administrative processes and gener-al Navy requirements. The third thing we do is collaborate.We determine what needs to be accomplished and then workout a way to get there that is beneficial to both the Sailor andthe Navy."Some of the most significant changes for the command

included implementing department heads, developing aninternal tasking tracker, mandatory tracking of training andestablishment of innovative business rules to effect behavioralchanges and hold people accountable. "Our Sailors are very proud of our accomplishments," said

Murphy. "They should be. They work incredibly hard toachieve them. Our monthly ranking has become a point ofpride around here and they want to continue to be the bestthey can be."

From 437th Aerial Port Squadron

With the busy summer moving season already upon us, theJoint Base Charleston Traffic Management Office would liketo pass on some key household moving tips.All personnel moving during the summer months should be

aware of the high volume of moves during the peak movingmonths of July and August. It is imperative members log intothe Defense Personal Property Program at www.move.mil, assoon as they receive their signed orders. Plan to be flexible when selecting a pickup date for your

household goods. Never schedule a pickup on the closing date

of the residence, the last day of residency in an apartment orthe day of termination of a lease, or the day a cleaning crew isto start cleaning the residence/quarters. Scheduling pickup onthese days leaves no room to adjust for unforeseen problems.Additionally, it's a good idea to leave the telephone and otherutilities connected until all property has been picked up. Limited capability during peak season means that not

everyone can move on the last day of the month. Be preparedto provide alternate move dates which will allow flexibility inthe event your preferred dates can't be met. In most cases, theactual pack, pick-up and delivery dates will be negotiateddirectly between you and the Transportation Service Provider

during the pre-move survey. You should expect one pack day for every 4,000 pounds of

estimated weight. The TSP is required to perform a pre-movesurvey at least five days prior to the requested pickup date.This pre-move survey may be performed in person or over thetelephone.A good move depends largely on how much you get

involved and are prepared. Log onto www.move.mil and readthe valuable information under the "Preparing for Your Move"section. If you have any further questions, contact us at 963-

2261/2253 (Air Base) or 794-7575/7595 (Weapons Station).

By Lt James RourkChaplain Candidate

Burnout is one of those things that plaguesAmerica, and certainly our military is noexception. What do we do about this? Howdo we prevent it? How do we "treat" it? It'sactually not all that hard, but maybe difficultto make the jump. Simply put, boundaries arewhat is lacking in our lives. It's certainly nota "cure-all," but it's a place to start. We needboundaries in the personal, social, and work-place areas of our lives. A boundary is simplyknowing when "x" area of our lives begins

and where it ends. Typically, we set bound-aries based on our faith or ethical/moral code.Our faith or ethical/morale code define whowe are and helps us set those boundaries. Asfor burnout, there are many factors at play, buta major factor is the workplace. As a military,we are hard workers. Sometimes, we justdon't know when to stop. It's important thatwe learn what boundaries need to set in place.If something can wait until tomorrow, itshould. Seek some accountability from apeer, and work together making burnout athing of your past.

By Shelia Bacon628th Air Base Wing Sexual Assault Victim’s Advocate

The Victim Advocate program is one of the most rewarding volunteer opportunities. An ini-tial 40-hour training program is required, as well as certification through the Department ofDefense Sexual Assault Advocate Certification Program, in order to thoroughly prepare newvolunteers to take on the role of a Victim Advocate. Volunteer victim advocates provide non-clinical services and assistance for crime victims such as on-call crisis intervention, emotionalsupport and ongoing support to victims during criminal investigations or a traumatic event thatrequires medical assistance or other needed resources. This position requires a caring, articu-late, sensitive individual with the ability to maintain good rapport with victims. VictimAdvocates inform victims on how to report incidents of sexual assault without fear and ensuresensitive and comprehensive treatment to restore victims' health and well-being. VictimAadvocates also educate leaders and service members to ensure they understand roles andresponsibilities regarding response to sexual assault victims. Each of us has different talents, dreams, and destinations; yet we all have the power to create

a new tomorrow!
