rEd ribbon WEEk

Red Ribbon Week is held during the last week of October each year to promote drug awareness and prevent illegal drug use. It’s also a time to emphasize resources for substance-abuse related issues. This year, Red Ribbon Week will be observed from 23-31 October.

Red Ribbon Week began in 1985 to honor Enrique “Kiki” Camarena, a Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) agent and former Marine, who was kidnapped and killed by drug traffickers in Mexico. Members of Camarena’s community began wearing red ribbons as a tribute to him and to raise awareness of the affects illegal drug use has on more than just the user. Since 1990, the DoD has joined other organizations in a national observance of Red Ribbon Week to prevent illegal drug use among service members and their families.

Service members face hazardous conditions unique to the military. The conditions can be made even more dangerous since, besides serious physical health problem including death, drug use can weaken or damage various forms of cognitive functions such as attention, memory, judgment and problem solving. According to the DoD’s Office of the Under Secretary for Personnel and Readiness, when one’s ability to perform is hindered due to drug use, they lack combat effectiveness which negatively impacts the safety and well-being of others as well as compromises the safe handling of sensitive information concerning national security.

In a 2011 interview with the American Forces Press Services, the DoD’s Operational Readiness and Safety director, Joseph Angello, said that drug use among service members is a readiness issue: “We cannot have people in the business of arms with drug impairments…We have to be full up and ready.”

However, drug use doesn’t just refer to illegal drug use. It includes abused prescription drugs and synthetic drugs, such as Spice, Molly, bath Salts and any other illegally used substances that cause both mental and physical impairment.

To support the Marine Corps’ readiness mission and anti-drug policy, the Drug Demand Reduction Program (DDRP) was established. Through education, outreach and awareness programs the DDRP helps deter Marines from drug use.

The DDRP aboard MCAS Beaufort and MCRD Parris Island will be observing Red Ribbon Week with activities at Laurel Bay and Whale Branch Schools as well as a golf tournament on 17 October. For more details see page 10.

Help is available through our Substance Abuse Counseling Center at Bldg. 17 aboard MCRD Parris Island, and by calling 228-1620/2044.

Red Ribbon Drug Abuse Awareness Campaign began in the early 1980s following the brutal murder of a drug Enforcement agent by the Mexican drug cartel. This agent’s name was Enrique “KiKi” Camarena. Prior to joining the DEA, he was a corporal in the Marine Corps. As a part of this awareness event the Substance Abuse Program is sponsoring a golf Tournament at Legends.

UnmannEdby Dan Fesperman

Darwin Cole was a career pilot in the U.S. Air Force. First he flew F-16sn then he flew, via remote control, Predator drones. A washout drunk with a dishonorable discharge, he’s now living in a dilapidated trailer in the Nevada wilderness, still trying to recover from his last mission – flying a drone in which he witnessed children being killed by the missile he fired. When journalists approach him for help with a story about the intelligence officer in charge of that mission, he sees an opportunity to pull his life back together and to get some justice for the children whose lives, he believes, were taken by a murderer hiding in the shadows of the American government.
