Joint Base Myer-HendersonHall and the rest of the NationalCapital Region received the mostsnow seen in several years as aresult of a storm that struck thearea Jan. 21.Approximately three inches of
snow fell on the joint base in a12-hour period. The inclementweather prompted federal govern-ment offices to shut down. Further,Arlington National Cemeteryclosed shortly after 1 p.m. Jan.21. The storm also forced a BetterOpportunity for Single SoldiersTown Hall event, also set for Jan.21 to cancel.What the storm didn’t cancel was
the Directorate of Public Works’response to winter weather.“We pre-treat roads; we check
equipment,” saidDenise Faldowski,base operations and maintenancechief for the Directorate of PublicWorks. “We follow the weather
pretty closely, primarily NOAA(National Oceanic and AtmosphericAdministration), so we know whenthe storm’s going to hit.”Every storm is treated as an indi-
vidual event, continued Faldowski,and an after action report is writtenfollowing each event.“We learn something every time,
so when a customer says this wasn’twhat I expected when I came back,we take that feedback and use itto improve for the next time,” shesaid.PublicWorkssnowteammembers
are called in to work based on fore-casted inclement weather that willimpact the installation, she said.“If we see the storm is going to hit
by 6, we’ll bring them in by 4,” con-tinued Faldowski. “They’ll get theequipment running and warmed upand put it through our checks andbalances to ensure it is functioningproperly.” Approximately 15 PublicWorks staffers spent what was asnow day for federal workers onduty, plowing roads to ensure they
remained passable.“They worked continuous-
ly during the storm and are thereason we are a success. They con-tinue to impress us with their work
ethic,” said Anthony Taylor, a DPWsupervisor.“We also had people on staff to

Declare your motorcycle ownershipIf you are a Marine and own or operate a motorcycle, Marine Corps regu-
lations require that you report such ownership to your command. ALMAR014-08, which was published in 2008, mandated that all Marines declaremotorcycle ownership, even if the cycle is not at their current duty stationor is not being currently operated within 48 hours from checking into theircommand. This is not happening in many cases.Failure to comply with the ALMAR subjects the violator to punitive actions
under the UCMJ and possible loss of benefits in the event of a motorcycle acci-dent or mishap involving bodily injury. Declaration of motorcycle ownershipis easy. Contact the Headquarters Battalion safety and environmental officerat 703-693-2501 and request a motorcycle owner information sheet via emailor fax, fill it out and send it back. That’s all that is required. Contact Gunnery

Leggo that ego
Sgt. 1st Class Littell Williams306th Military Intelligence Brigade
Fort Hood, Texas
On Jan. 23, 2008, exactly six months afterI bought my first motorcycle, I had my firstaccident. It’s a day I’ll never forget.Because of snow, I hadn’t ridden my 2007
Yamaha FZ6 for about two weeks. On thisday, however, the sun was out and the snowwas starting to melt. I figured this was thebest riding weather I’ve seen in a while, soI drove home on my lunch break to get mymotorcycle. My wife warned me that thiswasn’t a smart decision, but, of course, I didn’tlisten. I knew I’d be home before the sun wentdown and the temperatures dropped again.As luck would have it, a meeting at work
kept me tied up until 6 p.m. I knew the roadswould be freezing over, meaning I wouldhave to ride slowly to avoid an accident. Icould have asked someone to take me homeand picked up my motorcycle the next day,but, being hard headed, I decided againstit. Besides, I’d ridden in wintery conditionsbefore, so I knew I could handle them again.I went outside, started the motorcycle and letit warm up while I put on my personal protec-tive equipment, which included a two-pieceleather suit, heated gloves, winter boots and ahelmet. I hopped on and twisted the throttle.As I rode, I thought to myself that I only
needed to make a right, a left and thenanother right before I was home free. I madethe first right, but as I started my left turn,the rear tire began to slide out from underme. I released the throttle and downshifted inhopes of keeping the bike upright. Suddenly,the tire gripped the road again, and I lostcontrol. I was thrown to the ground, landingon my right shoulder before hitting my headon the road. The motorcycle then landed onmy right ankle. Embarrassed, I tried to getup and walk it off, but I was dazed, confusedand in a lot of pain. To make a long storyshort, I lost a motorcycle that night and, formy troubles, got a day of bed rest and 30 daysof light duty.So where did I go wrong? I started out
responsibly by taking the Motorcycle SafetyFoundation’s Basic Rider Course two monthsbefore even purchasing my motorcycle. WhenI finally bought a bike, I took a friend withseveral years of riding experience with meto ensure I didn’t end up with somethingthat was too advanced for my skill level.Unfortunately, as I got more comfortable withthe bike, my confidence level soared out ofcontrol. I soon began to think there wasn’t asituation I couldn’t handle. Obviously, I waswrong.I was lucky. I should have asked someone
for a ride home. Better yet, I shouldn’t haveeven gone home to get my bike that day. Iknew the weather conditions wouldn’t befavorable for riding if I didn’t leave beforesundown, but I let my ego cloud my judgment.As riders, we have enough to worry about onthe road. Let’s not add to it by making dumbdecisions.

Sgt. Maj. Gregory Rock hasused a combination of musicand leadership to inspirepeople from every walk oflife. However, after 28 yearsof dedicated service to hiscountry, seven presidentialinaugurations and thousandsof ceremonies around theworld, Rock has finally hungup his colonial uniform forgood.Soldiers from 3d U.S.
Infantry Regiment (The OldGuard), held a retirementceremony to honor Rock, aformer U.S. Army Fife andDrum Corps [FDC] sergeantmajor, at Conmy Hall onJoint Base Myer–HendersonHall Jan. 13.“Retirement sneaks up on
you when you are doing some-thing you love,” said Rock. “Ihave spent a good portionof my adult life here in TheOld Guard, and it has beenan honor to serve as sergeantmajor of the Corps these last11 years.”Rock is the third sergeant
major in FDC’s 53–yearhistory.“I had to make sure every
thing and everyone is in theright place at the right time,”said Rock. “It was my rolealso to maintain continuitythroughout FDC, and nowthat responsibility will bepassed on to another noncom-missioned officer.”Sgt. Maj. William White,
the current Corps sergeantmajor, said he is honored to
take over the position.“There was perhaps never
a transition where someonewas handed an organiza-tion as talented, gifted, puttogether and well-maintainedas the one I inherited fromhim,” said White.White went on to say Rock
was never afraid of a chal-lenge.“He brought a sense of calm
to the job no matter how busythings got,” said White.“I would not have made
it as far as I did withoutthe help of everyone I haveserved with,” said Rock.“Every person that I haveencountered in the military,good or bad, has taught mesomething.”
“If I could give any adviceto the next generation ofSoldiers, it would be to pushyourself outside your comfortzone. Trust the people aroundyou and never doubt your-self,” said Rock. “It is the onlyway you’re going to grow.”Rock said that some of his
greatest memories includeperforming for NelsonMandela and the pope.“It was such a huge part of
history,” said Rock. “Beingthere was truly remarkablefor me. There were so manymemorable moments for methrough the years. I lookforward to the next chapterin my life and I am glad tohave my beautiful wife toshare that journey with.”

pre-treated with a brine solu-tion similar to what is used onroads outside the gates, saidTyalor.Some may notice that roads
in Arlington County are wetterthan roads on the installation,even though the county andjoint base use the same brinesolution to treat roadways.“They have a lot more traffic,
so the salt and the brine actu-ally gets activated,” she said.“The salt solution is activatedby the friction generated by
vehicles that are driving onthe roads. “We don’t have thevolume of traffic that they do,that’s why we have the re-freez-ing.”Taylor stressed that the
plowing of the installation’sroads is done on a priority basis.“We have our priority roads
that you have to keep open(like McNair Road on the FortMyer portion of the joint base),”he said. “When we got to thesecondary roads, what got us,just like it got the county, thetemperatures dropped to 9degrees and the treated roadsfroze over.”Faldowski also lauded the
installation’s fire, police depart-ment, the grounds contractorand entire DPW workforce for
their response to the storm.“It’s a very tightly knit rela-
tionship,” she said. “Theseguys are a team.”With at least another week
of cold temperatures in theforecast, Faldowski and Taylorurged community members tokeep doors and windows secure-ly shut, and to report any waterleaks immediately. They alsourged drivers to keep a safe dis-tance between themselves andsnow plows and salt trucks.Ice Melt is also available at

Defense Department officialshave a zero-tolerance level forhuman trafficking and havestepped up awareness and edu-cation efforts to curb the crimeoverseas.In an interview with American
Forces Press Service and thePentagon Channel, Brian Chin, aprogram manager for the depart-ment’s effort to combat humantrafficking, said DoD is broad-ening its training for those whowork in contracting, acquisitionand law enforcement, and that ayearly general course on how torecognize human trafficking hasbeen mandatory for DoD civilianssince 2005.Chin works out of Qatar
and oversees the program inSouthwest Asia and the U.S.Central Command area of opera-tions.DoD defines human trafficking
as the use of force, fraud or coer-cion to recruit, harbor, transportor obtain a person for commer-cial sex or labor services, Chinexplained.Combating human trafficking
is not a war waged alone withinDoD, he noted.“The response to human traf-
ficking requires a collaborative
approach within all of DoD’s com-ponents and services,” Chin said,as well as working with agencies,such as the departments of Stateand Homeland Security to put astop to the crimes of slavery andprostitution.“A lot of our training is designed
to sensitize our folks to realizethat [a victim] is not just someonewho’s serving our food, cleaningthe barracks or picking up refusearound the bases that could besomeone who’s there againsttheir will and is being held incircumstances that fit [DoD’s]criteria for human slavery,” hesaid.Victims of human trafficking
can be difficult to identify, Chinsaid, because usually no physicalindicators of coercion exist, andhuman traffickers are adept atinfluencing their victims to hidetheir victimization.Commanders, other military
leaders and all DoD componentsat all levels are “striving veryhard to implement changes tofederal laws and DoD-wide poli-cies to push requirements forawareness programs, training fortargeted audiences and reporting[cases] to the DoD [inspectorgeneral],” he said.Chin called overseas human
trafficking widespread, butacknowledged the number of
victims is difficult to quantify.Victims usually are lured fromrural areas with promises ofworking in good-paying jobs, hesaid.“A classic sign of human traf-
ficking is indentured servitude,where the victims pay large feesin a very competitive arena tosecure jobs,” he said, adding thatthe high pay they’re promised isjust a lure.The fees to secure jobs become
loans, and victims find them-selves working as indenturedservants to work off what theyowe, and they can’t return homebecause their passports aretaken away, Chin said. Victims’homes often are held as collateralfor their employment, he added.In many instances, victims aremisled about where they’re going.
“One of the classic cases yousee is beauticians and barbers[who are] told they’re going to aGulf nation to work in a salon fora very good salary, and [when]they get off a plane, they’re actu-ally in Afghanistan, working ona forward-operating base undercompletely different circumstanc-es,” Chin said.DoD’s efforts to train its per-
sonnel to recognize and reporthuman trafficking are paying off,he said.“Our awareness programs are
having a tremendous effect onsensitizing all of our [personnel],and everybody understands whathuman trafficking is,” he said.“They’re starting to understandit’s not just a sex crime off ourbases, especially in Afghanistan.... It’s also a labor crime.”

FutureArmy leaderswere taughthow to be readyand resilient duringthe Career Program26 -Manpowerand Force Management (CP26)Intern Orientation at the PentagonConference Center, Jan. 15.CP26 develops a professional
cadre of manpower and force man-agement professionals to design,develop and resource the Army’soperating and generating forces insupport of the National MilitaryStrategy.“Putting things in perspective
can be difficult,” said Mike Egly,training branch chief, Joint ForceHeadquarters-National CapitalRegion and the U.S. Army MilitaryDistrict of Washington. “Resilienceis just like going to the gym, youhave to work on it.”Egly’s presentation was part of
theannualCP26 InternOrientationwhichaims to educate internsabouttheir career field andprovide profes-sional development.“The emotional correctness video
was by far what impacted me themost,” said Brittany P. Armstrong,a CP26 intern. “I felt it to be acommon sense way of thinking that
is unfortunately not too present inmany interactions we have witheach other. The ability to under-stand why someone has a certainopinion is a talent that I feel wouldbenefit everyone in general, butespecially those of us training tobecome leaders.”“I think the ready and resilience
campaign will be a huge culturechange for the Army,” said Egly.“We are not going to see the impactoftheseprogramsuntiltheseinternscarry it on to others.”The interns were also exposed
to an overview of the U.S. ArmyManpower Analysis Agency, pre-sentations on communicating withplain language and the use of socialmedia during part of the three-dayorientation.“I was very pleased that our
internswereabletohearfromseniorArmy leaders,” said Beryl Hancock,chief, CP26 Proponency Office.“As manpower and force manag-ers, they will be an integral part ofhelping keep the Army strong.”CP26 is one of theArmy’s 31 civil-
ian career programs. It is composedprimarily of management analystswho work in one or more of thenine manpower and force manage-ment functional areas. CP26 ana-lysts work in a variety of organiza-
tions suchas resourcemanagement,plans and training, documentationand management engineering atinstallations and major commandsacross the Army.“I enjoyed learning about the
paths that senior CP26 careeristshave taken in their careers. TheOperations Research/SystemsAnalysis presentationwasveryben-eficial and seeing enthusiasm forourprogramfromotherswashugelymotivational,” said Armstrong. “Butthe R and R videos are what stuckwith me here. I thought the resil-iency training was great.”

Millennium Project construction is still on schedule.“It [the weather] definitely sets back some of
the activities that they [construction workers] hadplanned for this week,” said Arlington NationalCemetery Director of Engineers Kent Carson.Carson added that electrical cables needed to
power temporary street lights were scheduled to beinserted this past week, but the inclement weatherscrubbed the work.The blue and red plastic utility flags near McNair
Road mark water and electrical lines respectively.Yellow flags signify underground gas lines whilegreen markers correspond to sub-level sewer lines.Carson said 600 trees will be removed during the
Millennium Project construction, but he empha-sized more than 600 will be replanted throughoutthe multi-level addition which will feature a perim-eter columbarium wall near McNair Road, a looproad through the site and an emergency vehicleservice road to be built behind the Old Post Chapel.“Up by [McNair Road] and the picnic area, a lot
of those [trees] are coming out,” Carson said. “Therewill be a stream running through the area, and asyou get down into that area, more of the trees willbe saved.”Detour signs have already been erected to alert
joggers and pedestrians that the JBM-HH picnicarea jogging path is closed. The exercise path willbe out of commission for close to 24 months but willbe replaced, andMcNair Road can still be navigatedby motorized vehicles and bicycles according toBonsok Escobar, chief of engineers, JBM-HH PublicWorks in an email to the Pentagram.“The jogging trail will be included in the [construc-
tion] project area, and it will become unavailable forabout two years,” Escobar said. “Eventually, a new,nice trail will be built and returned to JBM-HH forour use.”McNair Road will remain open but temporary
lane closures may occur during construction, and achain-link fence will be erected along the edge of theroad according to Escobar.The jogging path closure extends from the Old
Post Chapel to the intersection of McNair Road andMarshall Drive. Joggers and walkers are asked touse Marshall Drive – adjacent to Whipple Field – asan alternate exercise route.Carson noted that the permanent light poles will
be saved and reinstalled next to the jogging path,which will run parallel to McNair Road. The mea-surement between McNair Road and the project’sperimeter columbarium wall will be approximately30 feet.By late winter, the Millennium Project construc-
tion time table calls for all picnic area trees to beremoved and by spring, ground work will commenceon building the multi-tiered burial and inurnmentaddition.Millennium Project construction is planned for
completion by summer 2016.

With the construction of theMillennium Project and the NavyAnnex expansion, burials at ArlingtonNational Cemetery and inurnments willbe available to veterans and service-members for the next half century. Justfour decades ago, the need for addi-tional hallowed ground was of para-mount importance as aging World WarI and World War II veterans passedaway and the Vietnam War fallen werebrought home from Southeast Asia.From 1968 to 1975, Arlington
National Cemetery incrementallytook over Fort Myer’s South Post, anarea which encompassed land fromMemorial Drive to today’s ANC main-
tenance buildings. A parcel of land thatonce belonged to South Post is nowArlington National Cemetery’s Section60 – eternal home to many servicemem-bers and veterans who perished at thePentagon during the 9/11 attack and inthe Iraq and Afghanistan wars.The first military burial at Arlington
took place on May 13, 1864, and theoriginal cemetery grounds held closeto just 200 acres. Each weekday, anaverage of 25 to 30 funerals originatefrom Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall’sOld Post Chapel and Memorial Chapelas well as ANC’s administrative build-ing.The 624-acre cemetery, which con-
tains nearly six dozen sections, isobserving its 150th anniversary thisyear.

President BarackObama Jan. 22 addressedwhat he called the “pro-found injustice” of sexualassaults in the military.During a White House
Council on Women andGirls event in the EastRoom, the president reaf-firmed his administra-tion’s commitment to pre-venting sexual violence inAmerica.With Defense Secretary
Chuck Hagel and otherCabinet members onhand, the president notedthe effects of sexual vio-lence on American society,including the military“When a member of our
military is assaulted by
the very people he or shetrusted and serves with, orwhen they leave the mili-tary, voluntarily or invol-untarily, because theywere raped, that’s a pro-found injustice that no onewho volunteers to defendAmerica should ever haveto endure,” he said.As commander in chief,
the president said, he hasmade it clear that mili-tary leadership must dealaggressively with sexualassault in the armed forces.“It has been going on
too long, and we have anobligation to protect themen and women who puttheir lives on the line toprotect us,” he said. “AndSecretary Hagel and [JointChiefs Chairman ArmyGen. Martin E. Dempsey]
have already taken stepsto reduce violence andsupport those who havebeenharmed.But I’vemadeit clear I expect significantprogress in the year ahead.These crimes have no placein the greatest military onearth.”Earlier in the day,
Obama said, he metwith Vice President JoeBiden, Hagel, Health andHuman Services SecretaryKathleen Sebelius,Education Secretary ArneDuncan, Attorney GeneralEric Holder, and othermembers of his staff todiscuss the way forward.“I want to make sure we’redoing everything we can tospareanotherAmerican thetrauma of sexual assault,”the president said.
