By Chief Master Sgt. Edward Edgar317th Recruiting Squadron superintendent

OXON HILL, Md. – When I think about being a good Airman first,there are two quotes that have framed my focus.

The first came from Chief Master Sgt. A.C. Smith, the command chiefmaster sergeant for the 388th Fighter Wing at Hill Air Force Base, Utah.It was part of his address to the Team Hill 5/6 Association; I was attend-ing as president of Hill's Top 3. He said:

"I was 19 years old when I got into the Air Force ... I was 32 when theAir Force got into me."

I heard the other quote while attending a senior NCO induction semi-nar at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, Texas. We were being addressedby the commander's panel, and one of the members urged us:

"Be visible in uniform with your stripes, be it on the flight line or onbase at the commissary ... be visible."

These two senior leaders spoke to committing more to the Air Forcethan just your technical expertise, which should be a given.

"Be a Great Airman First" as a slogan encompasses enlisted develop-ment institutional competencies, specifically the personal competency ofEmbodies Airman Culture. There are sub competencies to EmbodiesAirman Culture which you can read in the Professional DevelopmentGuide or at the LeMay Center for Doctrine Development and Educationwebsite at http://www.au.af.mil/au/lemay/main.htm.

The point is that although vital to force multiplication, simply recruit-ing is not enough. Being a great Airman requires ethical leadership thatpromotes the Air Force core values both within and outside your unit.

It requires building Warrior Ethos by honing skills to support employ-ment of military capabilities; skills that stagnate when we simply focuson tasks in our job description. It also requires Self Development thatcontinually increases breadth and depth of knowledge and skill.

What does all this mean? In my perspective we tend to compartmental-ize in recruiting much more than traditional Air Force Specialty Codes.You've no doubt heard the old saying that when you ask a USMC mem-ber what they do, their response is "I'm a Marine," or "Sailor" or"Soldier" for the other services.

However, ask an Air Force member what they do and you might hear,"I am a heavy equipment operations technician." While this pride in spe-cialty is admirable, overall growth comes from service pride.

Identify with the institution! Step out of your comfort zone and intoleadership, mentorship and warrior ethos that build opportunities consis-tently and deliberately. The good news is the opportunities are endless.Educational institutions (professional and personal), professional organi-zations (Top 3, Toastmasters, VFW), shadow programs, community, etc. -you can't go wrong as long as you are committed and passionate in yourselection.

As most readers are not 19, I'll ask:"What age will you be when the Air Force gets in you?"

Is the Air Force in you?

By Senior Airman Michael Smith17th Training Wing Public Affairs

GOODFELLOW AIR FORCE BASE,Texas – I hear it all the time: "I hate running." Tobe honest, I didn't like it too much either, untilfive years ago when it was taken away from me.

My only goals back then were to run track forClemson University and make it to the Olympics -- running consumed me. I pushed myself to trainsix days a week, even through shin splints. Then,before I knew it, I had stress fractures, sideliningme for six months.

Within the first month, I realized how muchrunning was a part of my life, not only for physi-cal fitness, but also mental fitness. Without havingan outlet for my stress and anxiety, I quicklyfound myself falling down a spiral of depression.It was the longest six months of my life.

When the healing process was finally over, I

felt like a kid on Christmas morning. I was literal-ly ready to hit the ground running.

I started off slowly with a couple of laps at thelocal track and slowly increased the distance weekby week, until I felt comfortable enough to do aroad run. I challenged myself to beat my personalrecord and run non-stop for six miles.

Everything was going great, until mile threewhen I hit the proverbial wall. It felt like I hadjust been paid a visit by a dementor, a psyche-consuming being from the Harry Potter series. Ididn't want to go any further. I felt defeated.

That is when I decided to dig deep and pushthrough the pain. All of a sudden, the pain wentaway. One of the greatest feelings ever was run-ning without even thinking about it. Before Iknew it I was on the final stretch, and at thatmoment I was hooked on the runner's high.

According to researcher David A. Raichlen,humans report a wide range of neurobiological

rewards following moderate and intense aerobicactivity, also referred to as the "runner's high,"which can encourage habitual aerobic exercise.

Now, I run for an hour or more, multiple timesa week. I love the euphoric feeling of my mindbeing free of any worries. No matter what hap-pens at home or work, running is my number oneself-prescribed medication. Nothing works betterto get me at ease and put everything into a betterperspective. There are plenty of times where Igrudgingly force myself to go on a short run, andend up running double what I had plannedbecause of the high. No matter if I'm stressed,sad, angry, energetic, confused or happy -- therunner's high is my go-to drug, so to speak.

Running, for me, has changed from a burdento a gift, and I have become a better personbecause of it. Marathoner Gail W. Kislevitz saidit best: "Running is my private time, my therapy,my religion."

Running: Chasing the high

Use It ... Or Possibly Lose ItFor the quarterly Commander's Commentary,

I decided to take a turn from the norm and notwrite about leadership, but rather write aboutbudget issues that we are facing across theJoint Base as we head into Fiscal Year 15. Afew days back, my wife pulled up a Facebookpage which had several comments about JointBase Charleston. The comments centered ondiminishing quality of life programs. For exam-ple, there was a comment about how the AirForce was trying to close all quality of lifeservices on the Naval Weapons Station. Therewas another about leadership trying to close the Base Exchange and NavalExchange. There was even another one that said the leadership of the JointBase was going to take away all the static displays across the installations. Ican guarantee you, none of those are true nor have ever been discussed. But,your leadership team does need to make sure folks understand that some ofthe services with quality of life programs the installation has provided in thepast may need to be reduced or discontinued in FY15.

The latest information coming from our headquarters is that we may takeup to a 10 percent cut in our installation support budget for FY15. If thatnumber holds true, we have no choice but to reduce services across theinstallation. Rather than wait to see what happens at the end of the FY, yourleadership team has been discussing where we can reduce services and

where we can gain efficiency. We want to be prepared and postured correctlyso that if the cuts do take place, we have a plan in place and that you are allinformed about. Of course, whenever you have these conversations, emo-tions are high and rumors fly.

While we are looking internal to the installations to see where we canpossibly gain some ground, we are also looking externally to the communityto see where we can partner or refer folks for similar type services. We areextremely lucky to live in an area which is supportive of the military. As wedialogue with community partners, all of them have expressed sincere grati-tude that more military families might be coming to use their services. Iwant to stress the point that your leadership team is not looking to cut pro-grams, it is quite the opposite, we are looking to sustain programs.Unfortunately, if the funding is not there and the service is not being used,then we have to come up with alternatives that will affect our quality of lifeprograms.

I get asked a lot, what can we do to save certain services and keep themthriving. The simple answer is use them and use them often. Many of ourinstallation activities are funded like a business and if the activity losesmoney, then we need to do something about that. An example would be thebase pools. Our headquarters does not give us funding for base pools. Tokeep this service running we had to find a way to cover the operating cost ofstaff and maintenance. The solution was to charge a fee to patrons.Unfortunately, the cost of pool operations has become quite expensive andwe had to raise the price of base pool passes this year. The alternative to notraising prices was to discontinue pool service. Based on your feedback, wedid not want to do that. So although your pool pass fee increased this year,we were able to keep this service while still offering a highly competitiveprice which is only about 50-60 percent of what you would pay off theinstallation.

Make no mistake, FY15 is going to cause some budget and resource chal-lenges for us. But, it doesn't mean we can't find creative ways to keep ourquality of life programs and services alive. Your Joint Base Charleston lead-ership team is committed to socializing potential changes in service as soonas we possibly can for your planning purposes. If you want to keep the qual-ity of life programs going...use them...or else we run the risk of losing them.

LANGLEY AIR FORCE BASE, Va. – Whatwill it take? What sort of cost? A monetary or per-sonal property loss? Personal harm to yourself orsomeone you love? Will it take a loss of life?

We've heard it over and over again, "have a plan"before drinking alcohol. The messages are givenrepeatedly at commander's calls, mandatory trainingsessions, and in one-on-one discussions with super-visors; however, despite all of the warnings andeducation, drunk driving continues to happen.

Far too many people still don't understand thatalcohol and driving don't mix. Maybe, they thinkthat they are better at it than others, or none of thescience applies to them. Everyone is susceptible

to the effects of alcohol and the consequences itcan bring.

Understand this – drunk driving is no accidentand it is not a victimless crime.

In 2012, more than 10,000 people died in alco-hol-impaired driving crashes according to theNational Highway Traffic Safety Administration.That equates to one person every 51 minutes.That's 28 lives lost, accompanied with 28 grievingfamilies, every single day.

The tragedies that occur as a result of impaireddriving could easily be prevented if just a fewsimple precautions are taken.

For example, be responsible and have a planthat includes a designated driver. Another wouldbe to take alcohol, yourself, or a vehicle out ofany given situation and the possibility of a DUI,

or something worse.Most drunk driving happens after nights spent

with family and friends. That means there may besomeone you trust nearby to help with an alterna-tive method of getting you home safely.

Another key thing to remember is that time isthe only thing that can sober you up, not hydrat-ing, drinking coffee, eating, or working out.

According to the National Directory ofDesignated Driver Services there are more than600 designated driver services available to getyou, and sometimes your vehicle, home safe. Inaddition to those options, you have your fellowwingmen, friends, family, taxi services, or thechoice to stay put.

To put it simply, there is no reason to make thishorrendous mistake.

Drunk driving: What does it take?

Each dog tag was also stamped with “2014 World Cup,”and an embossed American flag. At the bottom, the tags read,“Stay Fit! Stay Strong! Stay Resilient!” which follows thechairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff’s Sports OutreachInitiative.

By Damian Wexler,Freelance Health Reporter

Recently, alternative medicine expert Bryce Wylde, a frequent guest on the

Dr. Oz show, revealed a simple secret that amazed millions who su!er with digestion nightmares. And people haven’t stopped talking about it since.

“I’d give anything to make it stop!”

"at’s what most people will tell you when asked about their digestive problems. “It’s just horrible says Ralph Burns, a former digestion victim. I was tortured for years by my Acid-Re#ux. Sometimes I’d almost pass out from the pain. My wife su!ers with digestion problems too. If she eats one wrong thing, she spends hours stuck in the bathroom dealing with severe bouts of constipation or diarrhea.”

FDA Warns About Popular Antacids

A recent FDA warning explained that excessive use of antacids could lead to an increased risk of hip, wrist, and spine fractures. Especially in people over the age of 50.

So when alternative medicine expert Bryce Wylde discussed an alternative on National TV, you can imagine how thrilled people were to $nd out they could $nally get relief without having to rely on Prevecid®, Nexium®, Prilosec® and other dangerous proton pump inhibitors. But now, according to Wylde, your stomach problems could be over by simply drinking a small amount of a tasty Aloe Vera extract. It’s as simple as that!

Finally There’s Hope...At $rst, the thought of drinking aloe vera

might make some people back away. But in fact, this delicious “digestion cocktail” is doing amazing things for people who su!er with stomach problems --- even if they’ve had them for years. Here’s how it works…

Stop Stomach AgonyYour stomach naturally produces acid so

strong, it can dissolve an aluminum spoon in just 30 minutes! And when excess acid escapes into your esophagus, throat and stomach lining, it unleashes the scorching pain of Acid-Re#ux, heartburn, ulcers and more misery. Add the problems of stress, and “all heck breaks loose.”

Dr. Liza Leal, a well known expert on chronic pain management explains... “"e AloeCure® can work genuine miracles. It bu!ers high acid levels with amazing

speed. So your stomach feels completely at ease just moments after drinking it.” In fact, it could wipe out stomach pain, discomfort, and frantic runs to the bathroom.

Until Now, Little Could Be Done...

But “AloeCure® can help virtually anyone. Even people with chronic stomach pain can feel better right away,” says Dr. Leal. And what’s really exciting is AloeCure® aids in keeping your digestive tract healthy, so intestinal distress stops coming back.

As Ralph Burns goes on to say, “I know AloeCure® never claimed to be a substitute for drug store products and is only meant to be a helpful supplement. Now though, AloeCure® is the only product I need for all my digestion issues”

Digestion Defender #1: Balances Stomach Acid

Your $rst line of defense is calcium malate. "is natural acid bu!er instantly sends stomach acid levels plunging. And holds acid levels down so they don’t return!

Digestion Defender #2: Instant, Soothing Relief

AloeCure® is brimming with polysaccha-rides, a “wonder” compound that gently coats the throat, esophagus and stomach, carrying instant relief to cells scorched by excess acid.

Here’s What Doctors Are Saying!

AloeCure® is backed by important scienti$c studies that con$rm... aloe calms stomach acid and allows your body to heal itself.

Dr. Liza Leal, M.D & Chief Medical O(cer at Meridian Medical. says, “"at’s why I recommend it to patients who su!er from bouts of heartburn, Acid-Re#ux, ulcers, and irritable bowel syndrome...”

Dr. Santiago Rodriguez agrees. “Just two ounces of AloeCure® reduces the acids in your stomach by ten times.”

Francisco DeWeever, a Certi$ed Nutri-tional Microscopist, “My patients report their IBS, Crohn’s, Colitis, Constipation, Acid-Re#ux and a host of other digestive problems have all but disappeared.”

After conducting an unpaid investigation about AloeCure® claims and success stories, Bryce Wylde commented that pure Aloe Vera extract like AloeCure® may be the most important application ever discovered for digestive health. He stands wholeheartedly behind his study into natural and complementary health and to this day, he receives no compensation from the sale of AloeCure® or any other product.

Safe And Easy To UseWith no sugar, no stimulants, and zero

calories, AloeCure® is safe, all-natural and has absolutely no side e!ects. It’s tasty, drug-free, and simple to use. Just drink two ounces, once in the morning, and once at night, and start enjoying immediate life- changing relief!

"e makers of AloeCure® have agreed to send you up to 6 FREE bottles PLUS 2 free bonus gifts with your order— they’re yours to keep no matter what. "at’s enough AloeCure® for 30 days of powerful digestive relief, absolutely free!

To order simply call our toll free hotline: 1-855-276-4885. But hurry! "is is a special introductory o!er, reserved for our readers only. Call now, supplies are limited!

If you su!er bouts of acid re!ux, heartburn, diarrhea, constipation, bloating, gas or IBS;

Chief Medical O(cer, Dr. Liza Leal says beware of digestion remedies like Prilosec®, Prevacid®

and Nexium®... "ey Can Cripple You!

TV Talk Show Doctor's Shocking

Revelation

Washington, D.C. – All across the country, those su!ering with digestion issues are ecstatic with the relief they’re getting from a new, natural remedy called AloeCure®. Everyone is thrilled… well, everyone except major drug companies, who apparently may threaten to take appropriate legal action.

“We hear the rumors, but we’re not going to be intimidated. We owe it to our satisfied customers to continue to produce a natural digestion solution that poses no possible side effects.”

“More than ever, I want to introduce digestion su!erers to our remarkable product, improve their health while saving them money, and provide long lasting relief."

From 628th Air Base Wing safety office

Our core values, which define our standards of conduct, i.e., how Airmen and Sailorsbehave, also set the environment for how we live and work. As we begin the summer season,taking leave and getting away is one of the first activities on our minds. When you include riskmanagement and safety as part of your summer activities you will be upholding the standardsof conduct and maximizing your chances of having an enjoyable activity.

Planning ahead is always a good step to help avoid the many risks that have the potential to ruinyour vacation. Your road trip planning should always begin with TRiPS (https://www.my.af.mil/

trips/af/Login.aspx). This is an effective risk management toolto find hidden dangers in your travel plans.

It's easy to think, "This won't happen to me," but does any-one plan on a tragedy? During the 2013 Critical Days ofSummer period there were seven Airmen killed in vehicle andnine in motorcycle accidents. None planned for this to hap-pen. Regardless of what caused the tragedy, using every riskmanagement tool reduces your odds of being involved in amishap.

The hazards associated with summer driving appear to befewer than winter driving. This is not the case. Some of thesituations that make it dangerous (http://www.esurance.com/driving-tips/summer-driving):

• More teens on the road• Drivers on vacation add to road congestion• Tire blowouts• Increased road construction• More bicycles and motorcycles on the road• Sun and excess heat

Before you can call your plans final, your vehicle shouldbe part of your plans. Take care of any needed maintenanceand ensure you have an emergency kit in your car. The kitshould include:

• First aid kit • Flashlight • Flares and a white flag • Jumper cables • Basic repair tools • A jug of water and paper towels for cleaning up • Nonperishable food, such as granola bars and drinking water • Extra windshield washer fluid • Maps

The following link is to the National HighwayTransportation Safety Administration that includes informa-tion for summer travel. An interactive version of this publica-tion can be found at: http://www.nhtsa.gov/links/SummerDrivingTips/.

From 628th Air Base Wing safety office

Having a wingman is one of the mostimportant partnerships in an Airman's life.The wingman's role is an integral part of ourAir Force culture and provides a vital func-tion in mishap prevention and risk manage-ment. Air Force Instruction 1-1 states, "a goodwingman means taking care of fellow Airmen... taking action when signs of trouble areobserved, especially in situations whereAirmen appear as if they are about to make apoor decision..."

According to the National Safety Council:"in 2010, there were 10,228 deaths in crashesinvolving a driver with a BAC of .08 or high-er - 31 percent of all traffic fatalities for theyear. While it is illegal to drive with a .08blood alcohol concentration in all 50 states,driving ability can be impaired below thelegal limit too. If you are drinking, do notdrive. If you plan to drink, designate a non-drinking driver." This applies to other activi-ties also. And in the hot weather, alcohol isdangerous even if you're just relaxing on aboat, the beach, or your backyard.

"Alcohol and [caffeinated beverages] con-strict blood vessels near the skin reducing theamount of heat the body can release.Although beer and alcohol beverages appearto satisfy thirst, they actually cause furtherbody dehydration," reports the NationalWeather Service.

Last summer, the Air Force lost twoAirmen to alcohol-related incidents; one in acar and one during a sports activity. In 2012and 2011 data shows eight and 10, respective-ly. While this is a sizable decrease - it is notzero! Furthermore, the potential for horrificinjury also exists when alcohol is involved asevidenced by this recent mishap:

Two Airmen decided to ride a motorcycleafter consuming a significant amount of alco-

hol - one operating the bike; the other a pas-senger. Neither wore helmets nor any otherrequired personal protective equipment.

They were speeding when the motorcyclewent off the road and struck a drainage cul-vert. Both Airmen were thrown into a road-side mailbox, struck the ground, slid approxi-mately 100 feet through the road's shoulderand then back onto the highway. A motoristcame upon the mishap, stopped and called911.

Emergency personnel arrived and theAirmen were airlifted to a regional hospitalwhere they were admitted for multipleinjuries. The Airman operating the motorcy-cle underwent surgery for multiple headinjuries and was placed in intensive care. Heremained in the hospital for several weeksand was eventually released with a permanenttotal disability. The Airman who was the pas-senger on the motorcycle spent a week in thehospital before being released.

No matter what summer activity you'replanning, if alcohol is involved, be responsi-ble and apply risk management steps:

1) Identify the hazards - are you going todrink?

2) Assess the hazards - is this an activity Ishould do with alcohol involved?

3) Develop controls & make decisions - isthere a designated driver/boater, etc.?

4) Implement controls - the designated per-son is driving, etc.

5) Supervise & evaluate - did the previoussteps work effectively? Should different plansbe made for the next activity?

Judgment is always impaired which resultsin poor decision-making. In the incidentabove, the motorcycle operator had not com-pleted the Air Force required training; makingthe poor choice to ride even more dangerous.

Summertime: keep it safe

Summer safety: risk management
