The Annual OverseasHousing Allowance Utility
Survey is under way for
Korea and will continue thru

The Overseas Housing
Allowance is a valuable
entitlement for membersstationed overseas. The time
and effort spent answering
the questions enables the
Department of Defense to set
equitable OHA utility rates.
The utility survey is
conducted annually to collect

An AH-64D Apache attack helicopterswirled around the sky like a beast
roaming around its prey. The Apache
moved into a shooting position, hovering
high above the ground.
Twenty-five pilots and gunners from
the 2nd Combat Aviation Brigade, 1st
Battalion recently participated at
Rodriguez Range for their Aerial
Gunnery Qualification, alongside the
Australian servicemembers who cameto Korea as part of the Australian Armys
Tiger helicopter project.
Twelve Apache aircrafts were used
for the Aerial Gunnery Qualification.

Point. The avionics maintenance andweapon loading was done by 1st
Battalion, 2nd Aviation Regiments
Armament Platoon.
For six weeks, the Australian soldiers
lived with their U.S. counterparts, and
were trained on how to operate a FARP
and maintain an attack helicopter.For the Aerial Gunnery Qualification,
an Apache pilot needs to perform three
main attack methods - running, diving
and hovering fire.
Though hovering may seem static,
the constant challenge of wind and
gravity makes it an unstable attack
method. Dynamic movement such as
running and diving fire, adds forward
momentum to a helicopter, which
guarantees a more accurate hit.
Capt. Richard Dunning, a 2nd CABpilot, explained that everyone is required
to do the qualification once a year, and
that the qualification maintains group
efficiency and crew readiness. The
master gunner also reviews an 8 mm
video recording of the performance, and
holds an after action review.
Were doing 30 mm shots, hellfire
shots, rocket shots, both dynamic and

former 3rd Infantry Division pilot who
served in Taji, Iraq, Taylor said the
Korean landscape is very different from
where he came from.
The mountains are pretty big, the
wires are everywhere. You really have
to watch for the power management. It

To complete the surveys,
respondents should haveactual bills or records of their

The following entries were excerpted from
the military police blotters. These entries
may be incomplete and do not imply the
guilt or innocence of any person.
Area 1 Criminal Trespassing Investigation

land navigation course gate. Subject 1 was
apprehended and transported to the Provost
Marshals Office where he/she rendered a
written sworn statement stating that his/her
vehicle was disabled. Subject 1 entered post
through a loose opening in the fence line on
Schoonover Field to look for assistance.
Subject 1 was processed and released to
Korean National Police.

Dear Editor,
In the Oct. 23 issue, Stars and Stripespublished an article titled, 2nd ID helps
family of a girl killed by military vehicle.
The morning of June 13, 2002, two young
girls, Shin Hyo-soon and Shim Mi-sun,
were accidentally struck by a 60-ton tracked
bridge carrier while on their way to a
friends birthday party.
The incident soon brought a ripple
effect of anti-American sentiment, which
was demonstrated throughout the
Peninsula. Four years have passed since
this tragic incident, yet many South
Koreans still hold strong sentiments
against the U.S. military in Korea. There
is nothing that can undo the tragic event
of that day; however, the military has been
taking more proactive measures to ensure
that accidents like this do not happen again.
At the same time, 2nd Infantry Division
Soldiers have not forgotten what took place
and since 2002 they have been providing
help to Shin Hyun-soo, the father of one
of the girls. The Soldiers have been helping
with the harvesting of the 18,000-square-
foot farmland owned by Shin. The family
still mourns the loss of their daughter, yet
every year they welcome the Soldiers of
2nd ID.
I believe that through cooperation
between servicemembers stationed in theRepublic of Korea and the citizens of this
country, we can build stronger
relationships. Through this we will also
have a greater understanding that will help
our nations relationships not only
politically, but also in our daily lives as
members of this society.
I would like the South Korean people
to know about the things that the U.S.
Army does to improve the communities in
which we live. As an American living in
Korea I will continue learning about the
culture and society of this wonderful
country. Through community events
between Soldiers and Koreans we will be
able to move from the problems in our past,to our combined community in the future.

informed the Area I Sexual Assault Response
Coordinator that Victim 1 had been in Subject

and Victim 2 attempted to detain Subject 3,
when Subject 3 kicked Victim 2 in the shin
and struck Victim 3 in the face with a closedhand. Multiple KNP officers were needed to

Gen. B.B. Bell
U.S. Forces Korea commander
This past weekend
we experienced the
death of a U.S. Soldier;
a young warrior with
less then one year in the
Army who was
assigned to Korea only
two months ago.Saturday morning he
was found dead in his
barracks room. The
cause of his death is
unknown at this time.
The loss of any life,
whether a U.S.
servicemember, a civilian employee, an invited
contractor, or a family member concerns me greatly.This unfortunate situation is still under investigation.
We do not know yet how this death might have been
prevented; however, it is important now to review
some basic leadership, safety, and wellness issues.
Commanders and leaders are responsible andaccountable for those in their organizations; taking
aboard this responsibility of leadership is vital as we
enter the holiday season and challenging winter
weather. At the servicemember level, it is essential that
the battle buddy and combat wingman concept isfollowed in every USFK formation. Refer to our USFK
Command Policy Letter #6, Buddy System.
Many of our servicemembers will be separated
from loved ones during this holiday season. Extendedperiods of separation can lead to depression, alcohol
and substance abuse, and even suicide. Commanders
and supervisors at all levels must review wellness
issues and be alert to indicators. Unit chaplains are one
of our most valuable resources on wellness issues.
They should be known and called upon frequently to
assist the command and individuals with wellness
issues.
Under the Oak Tree counseling procedures aretime-tested and work. I lay out how to execute this
process in USFK Command Policy Letter #2
Command Safety. Enforce UTOT Counseling in
your outfit and you will eliminate almost all tragic
deaths.
Whether you are a servicemember, civilian
employee, invited contractor, or family member you
are our most valuable resource. Each of us must take
every precaution to assure our collective safety and
well being. We need everyone to execute our leadership
and accountability responsibilities to standard. In doingso, we will achieve our goal of no loss of life.
We go together!

SEOUL As the fierce winter in
the Republic of Korea commences,
the Sailors and Marines stationed onYongsan Garrison do their best to stay
mission ready at all times. One of the
ways they do this is by getting their
annual flu shot. The vaccinations
started Oct. 26 and will continue
through Dec. 30.
Receiving the flu shot commonly
referred to as an inactive influenza
vaccine, dramatically lessens the
chance of getting the flu.The flu or influenza virus can last a
few days for some people, but can be
more severe for others. Symptoms
include a fever, sore throat, chills,
fatigue, cough, headache and muscle
aches. Those who become much
sicker may develop pneumonia, and it
can also be dangerous for people with
heart or breathing problems. Influenzakills about 36,000 people each year in
the United States. Although a majority
of them are elderly, it is still important
for everyone to get vaccinated.
The vaccination takes about two

weeks for the protection to develop,but once it does, it lasts up to an entire
year. Hospital Corpsman 1st Class
Jeffrey Redwine describes how the
shot does this.
The vaccination gives you
antibodies against a strain of a virus.Every year the strain of the flu is
changed because the virus mutates.The vaccine itself is a defense against
the basic structure of the virus. Even
if flu attacks, a person vaccinated will
have that basic structure of the flu
strain, and he or she will not develop
noticeable symptoms, Redwine said.
Redwine says that the concept thatthe flu shot makes you sick is untrue.
The viruses in the inactive influenza
vaccine have been killed, so you
cannot get influenza from the vaccine.
Redwine believes administering the
flu shot during this time of year is
crucial to mission readiness for Sailors
and Marines stationed here.
There are an estimated number
of 200 Sailors and Marines here thatare required to receive this shot. I
believe that, by being the one who is
administering this shot, I am helping
people obtain and maintain the best
immunity against diseases, said

YONGSAN GARRISON A small group ofattendees
took part in the RESUMIX class offered by the Civilian
Personnel Activities Center, Nov. 16.The class provides information to individuals interested
in attaining employment through the Department of the Army
as a civilian employee. RESUMIX is the database used Army-
wide to facilitate both the employees and potential employees.
The purpose of the RESUMIX class is to provide
information on the automated application process that Army
uses in accepting applications for Federal employment, said
William Zeigler, CPAC Chief Personnel Specialist.
The course is designed to assist employees on how the
process works and how to navigate the RESUMIX site.This class has been conducted monthly for more than
five years in Korea. It is cosponsored by CPAC, the Army

to reflect their experience, explain what management will be
looking for in applicants, Walker said.It provides a better understanding of how the system
works. My advice for applicants is not to become frustrated
or discouraged when searching for vacancies.
The primary audience for the course initially was spouses
of military members and Department of Defense civilian
employees. After the class became so popular, they offered
it also to servicemembers departing from active duty, Ziegler
said.
Id recommend the class to anyone, soldiers, civilians,
and family members. The class is well structured and theinstructor certainly had knowledge on the subject.
Id tell all soldiers that they should take it because it will

Then they said, can you say hi to the Sergeant Major of the Army? Iwas like Yeah!! It was really good to see that the SMA actually comes
and speaks to Soldiers, said Heinke, who has been in the Army 17months. Heinke, a self-described military brat and El Paso native, said
that before the SMAs visit he was not going to AIP. But the fact that he
came out here got me to rethink my decision, Heinke said.

FORT LEE, Va. Gas prices arebiting into the family budget, interest
rates are rising and college tuition is
outpacing inflation. But, relief is in
sight for military families as the 2007Scholarships for Military Children
program opens.
Applications for the $1,500
scholarships are available at 264
commissaries worldwide, or can be
downloaded at
www.commissaries.com,
www.militaryscholar.org, or
www.dodea.edu.
Scholarships for Military Children
is a wonderful military communityprogram, said Patrick Nixon,
Defense Commissary Agency director
and chief executive officer. Nearly
3,000 scholarships totaling over $4
million have been awarded since the
first awards were given in 2001.
The $1,500 scholarships are
available for children of military
active-duty, retired, and Guard andReserve servicemembers. Most of thefunds are donated by manufacturers,
brokers and suppliers selling groceries
in commissaries, and every dollar
donated to the program by industry or
the general public goes to fund the
scholarships. The program is
administered by the Fisher House
Foundation.
Applications for 2007, which
include an essay on how and whythe applicant would change an
historical event, must be turned in at a
commissary by close of business on
Feb. 21, 2007. At least one $1,500scholarship will be awarded at every
commissary location with qualified
applicants.
For complete eligibility
requirements, visit the nearestinstallation commissary.

proactive instead of reactive
medicine, you will have less people
that need treatment from illnesses.
That is my job, to help keep
servicemembers from getting sick.
There are some risks associated
with receiving the vaccine, but forRedwine, he believes the benefits far
outweigh the risks.
There are always some risks
involved in anything. But for most
people, the chemical will work,

CAMP STANLEYOn the
morning of Nov. 16 in the Camp
Stanley parking lot, a lone parked
car explodes injuring five people.
The victims are treated and
evacuated to the nearest hospital.
A mere 20 minutes later, guards
seize a backpack containing an
improvised explosive device
carried by a young Asian man
attempting to enter the camp. He
escapes on foot and is loose on
the camp grounds. Troops are
immediately dispersed to hunt him
down. By 12:40 p.m., the man is
captured and arrested.
This scenario was carried out
Nov. 16 to exercise anti-terrorism
and force
protection on
Camp Stanley.We are holding
this exercise today
to ensure we are
aware of the rules in
the event of a
terrorist attack on
Camp Stanley, said
Lt. Benjamin Kim,Headquarters, HeadquartersCompany Area I. Because of the
continuous changes in personnel
here we need to hold these types of
exercises. We want to make sure
there is continuity in the chain of
command.
Because Camp Stanley is the
home of the Warrior Readiness
Center, the camp has extra troops if
in fact they are needed.
The WRC is sort of involved;
they dont play a direct role because
they have a day-to-day mission. Inthe event of an incident like this they
would play a vital role in protecting
this installation, Kim said.
Because the Adaptive Focus
exercise was recently at Camp
Stanley, most of the preparation for
this new exercise was already in
place.
We just retooled things here and
there to get prepared for thismission, so that saved us from
having to do a lot of extra
preparation, Kim said. There was
some work involved, but overall
because of the previous experience a
few months
back, everyone
knows what to
do and what is
going on. It isnot like we had
to reinvent the
wheel.
In the
beginning, theintelligence received was that an
Asian male in a white car would
attempt to invade the camp with an
IED. He would be searched andarrested. However, that scenario
was abandoned.
What we are doing here today

Area I Public AffairsCAMP CASEYBetter
Opportunities for Single and
unaccompanied Soldiers sent
representatives from all U.S. Army
garrisons Nov. 15 to Camp Casey for
its quarterly conference and meeting.
The meeting enabled the Soldiers to
learn more about what is available tothem through Morale, Welfare and
Recreation and other venues on the
peninsula.
This is our quarterly meeting for the
community recreation and BOSS
program, said Staff Sgt. Daniel
Roman, IMCOM-Korea and 8th ArmyBOSS representative. We have 20
Soldiers from each area that attend andparticipate as well as the recreation
directors and coordinators.
Col. Al Aycock, IMCOM-Korea
director, was the featured speaker at the
meeting. He explained that in Korea, as
anywhere in the military, a program like
BOSS, which is represented by each
unit in the Army, is a high priority on
his list and BOSS rates at No. 10.
We are trying to energize all thegood they can do in the three pillars of
BOSS, Roman said. Community
service, recreation and well being for
the Soldiers are those pillars.The representatives who attended the
meeting will go back to their units and
their areas with a lot more knowledge
and understanding of what is available
to them throughout the peninsula.
Our first presentation was about the
Korea forum and the NationalDepartment of the Army forum,
Roman said. It is part of the overall
BOSS program to unify the Soldier
BOSS representatives and help energize
their program so they can have eventsand activities that lead up to competing
on a regional level and at a national level.
During the meeting all of the area
sergeants major had a question-and-
answer session, which gave the Soldiers
the opportunity to ask questions about
BOSS issues they had and gave the
sergeants major an opportunity to pull
the ideas and issues out of the
representatives.This gives the Sergeants Major an
opportunity to get the ideas out of the
representatives, and also to solve some
of the issues the Soldiers may have with
the BOSS program, Roman said.
The Dragon Hill Lodge was new to
the BOSS agenda and their presentation
gave representatives an idea of what they
could expect when working projectsthrough the lodge.
We are trying to develop more of a
relationship with the Dragon Hill Lodge
in the future, Roman said. They do a
great job marketing and a lot of times
we are in competition with them. We
have the same objective as they do.With the three pillars of BOSS -- well
being, community service, and
recreation and leisure, the BOSSmeeting had a very important objective.
We want to penetrate the

middle of Warrior Country, the

here, Roman said. This meeting will
give us more momentum in BOSS
program areas. This is going to help
us turn the corner to excellence and
get the full team behind us.By the time the meeting was
wrapping up everyone was enlightened
with new ideas and a commitment to
preparation, which was the theme of
the conference.
This meeting is very successful,
Roman said. The BOSS representativesand the leaders that are focused on BOSS
will be taking the information back and
making preparations to carry on.

Cultural Center reveals wondersBy Area I Public Affairs
CAMP RED CLOUD Just 20 minutes from Camp Red Cloud is a museum
dedicated to art and artifacts from the African continent.
The African Cultural Center, located on Highway 98, off Route 43 nearPocheon, features works of art and historical artifacts from more than 20
countries in the continent of Africa.Not only, in my opinion, is this one of the finest museums in Korea, but the
crown jewels are the professional dancers and musicians from the West-African
nation of Cte dIvoire who perform shows six days a week, said Mike Vail,
management and program analyst, Plans, Analysis and Integration office.
The founder and president, Tae Chun Man, spent more than seven years and
more than $10 million dollars building the center and acquiring works of art from
Kenya, Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Ghana, and more than a dozen other nations.He said he had seen a stone statue once and was so intrigued he took a trip
to the African continent, Vail said. Now, after more than 30 trips to more
than 20 nations, he is proud to educate Korea on the wonders of Africa.
The center opened to the public in June of this year. In attendance were
embassy personnel from four African nations and dignitaries from the local
community.
While not quite as large as the Smithsonian National Museum of African
Art, the center is truly impressive with a vast array of items covering many
diverse and unique cultures, Vail said. For a 5,000 won entrance fee and
only 7,000 won for the show, this is a bargain not to miss!The center also hosts a caf and shopping mall with original hand-made
clothes, rugs, furniture, figurines and more items from numerous African
countries.
It is open seven days a week, with cultural shows Tuesday through Sunday.

CAMP RED CLOUDKorean
national employees received
training familiar to American
servicemembers and U.S. civilian
employees Nov. 15, when
Prevention of Sexual Harassmenttraining was offered in the Camp
Red Cloud Theater. For mostemployees, it was very effective.
This training is terrific and
very important to all of us, said
Choe, Chon Sik, librarian at CRC.
This training helps all of us
working as Korean employees.
Many have not taken the No Fear
Act Training offered on the internet,
but all agree the training is important
and unusual in Korean society.I havent had a chance to take
the No Fear Act Training, but we
always take this kind of training
twice a year, Choe said.
This training is important because
Korean employees need to know the
difference between sexual
harassment and
sexual assault,
and also they
need to know wein Area I careabout our Korean
employees,
explained Vivian
George, equal
employment
opportunity
officer in Area I.
We care about their well being;
we want them to work in anenvironment free of sexual
harassment and discrimination.
The group got something
new in POSH training before
the class was dismissed.
What I did was add diversity
training and customer service to the
class, George said. I feel that the
same way we need to learn to be
aware of
Korean
culture, we
need to teachthe Koreanemployees they
also have to
learn how to
deal with a
different
culture, that
culture being American.
Because Area I, as the rest of
the U.S. Army installations inKorea, has many different
cultured peoples working for the
Army in Korea, it is incumbent on
the Koreans employed by the
Army to understand all the
Vivian George, equal employment opportunity officer in Area I, delivers Prevention of Sexual Harassment training in the Camp Red Cloud Theater Nov. 15. For many Korean employees, it was their

It is good if we know about

said. We can work in a better
environment and have a better

The No Fear Act is a worldwidemandatory training for all U.S.
civilian employees and military
personnel who supervise U.S.

This is very important because
management, supervisors and
employees that discriminate or
retaliate against employees will be
held accountable and disciplinaryaction will be taken, George said.
People need to report incidents of

immediately.

YONGSAN GARRISON The
U.S. Forces Korea commander and his
wife celebrated a Yongsan U.S. Army
Library Thanksgiving tradition with
roughly 50 children and their parentsSaturday.
Gen. B.B. Bell and his wife Katie
participated in the event to emphasize
the importance of reading to children.
The event highlighted the need to
improve childrens language and other
critical skills, Bell said.
I enjoy being around young people
because what we do in the military- to
create a peaceful environment is for us,
but moreover it is for the youngstersand to create a better future for them,
Bell said. Being around young people
reminds me and all of us why we are in
this business, so I think that it is
important to take just a minutefrequently to gather around our young
folks and thank them for what they are
about to enter in to which is leadership
roles in our society.Every year around Thanksgiving the
USFK commander and his wife
participate in the Yongsan Library event.
This is a first for Bell who assumed
USFK command February 3.
We woke up this morning, so excited
to see the children and spend this timewith them, said Katie Bell.
For bilingual children, the event also
helped them in other ways.
I bring my kids to events like this
[that emphasize language skills] because
they speak multiple languages and this
helps them improve their English, said
Huahsin Lu, a parent at the event and a
Yongsan contractor.
Bell asked four children to act out
scenes from The First ThanksgivingDay by Laura Krauss Melmed and
Mark Buehner as he read it.
After the readings, the Bells carved
a turkey and cut a cake with the help of
some of the children.
General Bell is fun, said six-year-old Nicholas Lu.

Command Sgt. Maj. Diane Foster has more than
two decades of experience and two previous
assignments to Korea.
In my new role, I would like to get out and observe
the community, she said. I will talk withservicemembers and community members to find out
what their recommendations are to enhance the
community.
Foster said Yongsan is already a fantasticcommunity.
We can always enhance and as with any
organization -- organizations are dynamic, not static -
- we have to continually monitor whats going on in
the community to see what we can do to make it
better, or just to take it to the next step, she said.My goals are to assist Area II servicemembers and
their families to make this the best community
possible.
The role of a community command sergeant major
may be different from Fosters most recent
assignment as the top noncommissioned officer in
the 2nd Infantry Divisions Combat Aviation Brigade
at Camp Humphreys.
In some ways this is a shifting of gears because Ihave a larger civilian population that I will engage with
on a daily basis, she said. But, as a sergeant major,
taking care of servicemembers and their families was
the first priority of the day anyway, and it will be my
first priority here.

different regions and honored the best
works from each.Usually a scrapbook is like an
ordinary picture album with some text
beside the pictures, said Yongsan Artsand Crafts Specialist Kim Un-u. We
decided to do something different by
using all kinds of material to make it
unique.
She said it took her nearly a month
to conceive the idea and put it toproduction.
All the participants from Korea did
very well, but the Yongsan Arts and
Crafts Centers work was exceptional,
said IMCOM-Korea Region Arts and

Lattanzi. They did a fabulous job
preparing the scrapbook.

The scrapbook illustrates programs

scrapbook used different materials from
used blue jeans to Korean traditional
paper.
Kim said their scrapbook surprised
the judges by adding some creativity to
it. For example, the cover was made of
denim jeans with pockets. On anotherpage, there was a pop-up summer class

WASHINGTON -- Recognizing the
next generation of Soldiers is likely to
communicate via text messaging or
online message boards, the Army is
launching new media tools to connect
with prospective Soldiers.
Army Strong provides a powerful
platform to communicate with
potential Soldiers, both through
traditional media and the new
technology that todays young
Americans have embraced and helped
pioneer, said Lt. Gen. Robert Van
Antwerp, commander, U.S. Army
Accessions Command.A new microsite at GoArmy.com -
www.goarmy.com/strong - explains
the meaning of Army Strong to
potential recruits. The site also offers
video stories of real Soldiers, games,
ring tones, wallpaper and more.
An Ask a Soldier discussion
forum is available at
ask.usarec.army.mil. There,
prospective Soldiers looking for
information about the Army can post
their questions and receive answers
from real Soldiers.
Market research tells us that the
number one source of credible
information about the Army, from a
prospects perspective, is an actual
Soldier, said Van Antwerp.
Soldiers are encouraged to visit the
forum and respond to questions based
on their own Army experiences. Log-
in requires an AKO user name and
password. Soldiers replies will not be
censored, Van Antwerp said, and
Web-site administrators will remove
only posts that are offensive or violate
operational security.
We acknowledge that some
Soldiers may post replies that cast the
Army in a negative light, said VanAntwerp. But we are not going to
censor these comments, as doing so
would undermine the credibility of the
discussion forum. Our strong
reenlistment statistics speak volumes
about the morale of our Soldiers, so
we are confident that the replies to
questions will provide a balanced
perspective.
The Army is also extending its
message beyond Army Strong and
GoArmy.com. A new Army page has
been launched on MySpace.com, the
third most popular Web site in the
United States and a social networking
phenomenon that has swept young
America. The Armys page on MySpace
is www.myspace.com/army.
Army messages will soon be
distributed through the Web by other
means as well, allowing the Army to
be where potential recruits are and to
speak to them in an objective,
authentic, non-recruiting and non-
threatening manner. This includes text
messaging; a greater presence on
popular search engines like Google
and Yahoo; question-and-answer
sessions with high school students
through the video-sharing Web siteYouTube.com; and taking Americas
Army: The Official U.S. Army Game
into the Global Gaming League, an
online gaming forum and social
network that sponsors and covers
video-game tournaments.
The U.S. Army is fighting a tough
recruiting battle and must do all it can
to make the Army message distinctive
and powerful - and then deliver that
message in ways that reach eligible
recruits and those who care about
them, added Van Antwerp.
WASHINGTON -- The Armyannounced today that in certain
geographic areas for the next six
months the black Intermediate Cold
Wet Boot will be authorized for wear
with the Army Combat Uniform in
lieu of the tan ICWB, which is
currently in short supply.
Sgt. Maj. Katrina Easley, the
Branch Chief for Uniform Policy at
Army G-1, Pentagon said that the
temporary policy affects Soldiers in
cold regions of the continental United
States, Korea, Europe and Alaska.
The policy will ease short-term
demands and allow the supplysystem time to meet world-wide
requirements, SGM Easley said.
The first version of the ICWB, a
black boot fielded in the early 1990s,
filled the void between the standard-
issue leather combat boots and the
extreme cold weather Mickey
Mouse boots.
Sgt. Maj. of the Army Kenneth
Preston said, we do not want
Soldiers to suffer through the winter
months with their summer, light-
weight tan boots.

Today, we live in a society where having
big homes, fine cars, and expensivejewelry have become very important to us.
Having more stuff than the next person is an
outward sign of status. In the chase to have the
most, we often forget about life. More specifically,
we forget about living.
When I was young, it seemed as if Christmas
would never come. It was an eternity from the
beginning of the year to December 25. Time passes
so fast it seems like, Christmas celebrations end,
and its time to prepare for the next Christmas.
Life is passing by so quickly. What I have
learned through living all these years, is that life is
so very precious. It is so important to give your all
every single day, knowing that today can never be
lived again.
Almost daily, in Iraq, Afghanistan, and all over theworld, Americas young men and women are giving
that precious life for something they believe so
strongly in.
The thing they are willing to die for is freedom.
Not just freedom for themselves and their families,
but freedom for everyone, all over the world.
The greatest part of this giving is that no one is
making them do it, but they have all volunteered.
What gives them this desire that makes them
different from every other person in America? If
this freedom is so important, then why does not
every young man and woman enlist in the Army so
they can protect others? The answer is simple.
That common thread that makes us all Soldiers is
not the camouflage paint we wear on our faces, nor
is it the uniform. What binds us all together is oursense of duty.
Duty is that feeling deep inside that says,
even if no one else will go, I will. General
Robert E. Lee once said, Duty is the most
sublime word in our language. Do your Duty in
all things. You cannot do more. You should
never wish to do less.
Today, as all other days, we have an
opportunity to do our duty. We will never have
this opportunity to live today again, so give your
all today, tomorrow, and next week as you
continue to do your duty as a Soldier.

WASHINGTON -- Body armor,
helmet, eyewear - they all offerphysical safety, but sometimes it takes
digging a little deeper under the
uniform to see what really makes
Soldiers feel at ease.
Its in the depths of their pockets
that you find Soldiers lucky
charms, items that make them smile,
remind them of home and never leave
their side.
First Lt. Ryan Pace, an automotive
officer with the 143rd Transportation
Command in Kuwait, carries an item
from his grandfather who passed
away in 2003.
Its a palm size prayer card, hesaid. One side has an angel with a
prayer on it, and the other has his
picture and a poem about gardening.
I keep this prayer card with me,
and it makes me feel like even though
hes gone, hes still looking out for
me, Pace said. We dont have much
here (while deployed) but its a piece
of home. Soldiers can never have too
many reminders of that.

carries a Twinkie the Kid, a trinket
children use to carry their Twinkies
for school lunch.
My wife sent me Twinkie the Kid
during Operation Iraqi Freedom I as a
joke, and it hasnt left my side since,
the Townsend, Mont., native said.
Twinkie the Kid now wears a
Stetson and cowboy boots. He even
got a new name - Cav Kid.
No matter how bad your day is
you can look at the Cav Kid, and hes
always smiling, Johndrow said. You
cant help but smile, too.
My pictures and other items that I
got from family members help me get
by, said Sgt. Christy Kupiec-Fox, a
Soldier with the 226th Division
Aviation Support Battalion, in Kuwait.
Besides photos she has her 7-year-
old brothers teddy bear, which has
his voice recorded in it.
He kept saying a year is a long
time, she said. He was so afraid
that I would forget him. So he gaveme this bear so I wouldnt forget
what he sounded like.
Her baby brother also gave her a
pillow with his picture on it. And
concerned neighbors gave her a cross
that she keeps.
Ware, Mass., is a really small
town, she said. And even though its
small, she said, many of its residents
have deployed. Its become a
tradition. If someone deploys they
always get a cross. All these things
make me feel good and safe.
While some items are new from a
store, others are mementos steeped inhistory.
I have a rosary from my
grandfather who served in WWII,
said Spc. Joseph Bicchieri, a senior
broadcast journalist with the 40th
Public Affairs Detachment in Kuwait.
He got it from an Italian prisoner of
war.
While on his way to meet up with
his unit, Bicchieris grandfather was
