Another early morning arrival to the flight-line and the air advisors are ready to take on the challenges of the day with our Afghan aircraft maintainers. As the Afghans prepare their aircraft for the day’s missions, it is the air advisor’s duty to prepare the day’s tasks need-ed to train and advise the Afghan Airmen.

This monumental task was made possible by the 22 U.S. Air Force/U.S. Navy personnel and a coalition team from Latvia, Lithuania, and Belgium. Together we advised and trained 190 Afghan Airmen across 10 different specialties to make the mission happen day in and day out. This unique mission is not for everyone. It takes an individual with a light-hearted at-titude, patience, and the stomach for gallons of chai (tea). These traits were crucial to building a relationship with the Afghans that facilitated a positive training environment.

The typical day for an air advisor began on the flightline with the rotary wing squadron. This squadron’s personnel were responsible for providing mission capable aircraft to support combat and training missions. They accom-plished this by safely launching, recovering, inspecting and servicing their Mi-17 helicopter fleet. On the flip side, the flightline could not sustain their mission requirements without the capability provided by the Intermediate

Maintenance Squadron. This squadron provid-ed back shop hydraulics, fabrication, aerospace support equipment, non-destructive inspection, and electrics/avionics support not only to the rotary wing flightline maintainers, but also the phase inspection section. Their primary task was to complete hourly inspections ensuring that the aircraft were airworthy to accomplish the mission.

Over my 365-day temporary duty assign-ment in Afghanistan, the positive changes that I witnessed from the Afghan Airmen were outstanding. Previously, the typical Afghan maintainer would dedicate all of his energy to one aircraft that had all the glamorous mainte-nance being performed. But through the hard work of the air advisors, the Afghans learned to prioritize and create individual teams to accomplish several tasks simultaneously on multiple aircraft. In the past, the Afghan pro-fessionals, mostly officers, would not pass on knowledge to less experienced ranks. Today they have become more involved, passing on that valuable knowledge and building solid foundations for sustainable maintenance ca-pability in the Afghan Air Force. This not only greatly improves their chances of success, it also sets the stage for the U.S. and coalition forces to transition out of Afghanistan and come home with our heads held high.

Out of this experience I learned some very powerful lessons. First, be prepared to work

outside of your comfort zone. The Afghans had a different mindset when it comes to work. The trust and relationship has to be built first before they will accept what you are teaching them. Second, empowerment was a big tool we used to encourage learning. Just as we empow-

There I was, on my first deployment sitting on a C-17 Globemaster III heading for Bagram Air Base, Afghanistan.

Once my stomach came back from the combat landing executed by the pilot flying the aircraft, I eagerly walked off the plane despite be-ing weighed down from the battle rattle and my over-packed travel bag. As I walked across the airfield, which seemed like it had more aircraft traffic than Atlanta International Airport, I could not take my eyes off the beautiful high, snow-capped mountains that surrounded the entire base. I would later find out on my deployment that shoveling snow could be a demanding form of physical fitness.

I was assigned to the 4th Expeditionary Reconnaissance Squadron, a unit that flies the MC-12W aircraft, which specializes in providing intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance directly to ground forces. My primary responsibility was to manage the squadron’s aviation op-erations at the area of responsibility’s busiest operations desk. This en-tailed duties such as working the radios and validating that all aircrew members had met daily aircraft safety and physical requirements.

Also, other daily duties consisted of assisting with establishing daily flying schedules, aircrew training and coordinating with other base agencies such as maintenance, weather and airfield management to ensure that the aircrew had the most accurate information prior to con-ducting their combat missions. The 4th ERS conducted 24/7 operations, flying an average of 34 lines a day, making them the number one ISR

Nothing beats spending quality time with your family on a nice summer day.

Folks living in Florida enjoy the outdoors in many ways. Unfortunately, pesky and ir-ritating mosquitoes can ruin a fishing trip or family barbecue. Mosquitoes are not only ex-tremely bothersome, they also pose a remote threat of transmitting disease, so protect your families and pets.

Given their ability to annoy and sicken peo-ple, the 6th Aerospace Medical Squadron pub-lic health and Hillsborough County Mosquito Control work together conducting mosquito surveillance and control across several loca-tions base-wide. Mosquito traps are capable of

capturing hundreds to thousands of mosqui-toes, providing valuable data about problem areas. Trapped mosquitoes are identified, care-fully packaged and sent to the U.S. Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine at Wright-Pat-terson Air Force Base, Ohio, for species iden-tification. Some of the species are capable of transmitting diseases to people such as the West Nile Virus, Saint Louis Encephalitis and Eastern Equine Encephalitis.

Prevention is the key. Insect repellent is the most commonly used measure to prevent bites, but you can help reduce the number of mosqui-toes in outdoor areas where you work or play by following these other helpful tips to reduce

It seems like just yesterday that I arrived to assume command of the 927th Air Refueling Wing in January 2013.

The past 16 months have simply been incred-ible! To have the special opportunity to serve and lead the great citizen Airmen of the 927th ARW has been the absolute highlight of my Air Force career. From the initial base realignment and closure move from Selfridge Air National Guard Base in Michigan to the present, the Airmen of the 927th ARW have attained many goals and milestones. The wing reached full operational capability almost two years ahead of schedule and our Reservists have mobilized and deployed in support of numerous contin-gency operations to include Operation Endur-ing Freedom, Iraqi Freedom, and Operation Unified Protector — just to name a few.

In the last year alone these Airmen – Tra-ditional Reservists, Air Reserve Technicians, Active Guard Reserves and civilians - have

Summertime is here! It’s an opportunity to enjoy outdoor activities and spend time with family and friends. However, while enjoying the summer season everyone should practice good risk management and situational aware-ness.

When planning for a day that includes trav-eling, safety should be a consideration for ev-eryone involved.

Drinking and driving while operating a mo-tor vehicle, to include motorcycles, can put not only yourself, but others around you at risk. Criminal, financial and administrative conse-quences, such as loss of driving privileges on base, are potential penalties.

In this day and age, distracted driving has taken on a new meaning with advancements in technology.

Death or serious injury can be a result from

operating a phone while driving. Calling, tex-ting, or using a global positioning system adds cognitive distractions to the brain. Intention-ally schedule calls for a time when you will not be driving and plan your work-day in advance to avoid making official calls while driving. If a ringing phone is too tempting, get in the habit of silencing your phone before you start to drive. Other types of distractions include eating and drinking, talking to passengers, grooming, reading, and adjusting a radio.

Road signs are posted everywhere you go to increase traffic and pedestrian safety. Speed limit signs are posted to designate the maxi-mum speed in certain areas.

Following the speed limit is important be-cause it increases both traffic and pedestrian safety. It is especially important for motorcycle riders, as speeding is involved in 84 percent of motorcycle accidents. Driving above the posted

“This gives us 300-plus hours of instruc-

tional programs per week, as opposed to be-fore where we only achieved around 28,” said Sharla Alexander, 6th Force Support Squad-ron fitness center director.

This was Alexander’s response in regards to how the new Fitness on Request kiosk has improved the Short Fitness Center’s ability to provide customers with a new and innovative option to workout.

MacDill, as part of a $2 million Air Force fit-ness initiative, is one of 66 installations to re-ceive the privilege of acquiring a kiosk and one of only a few to actually receive two kiosks.

The kiosk eliminates the need for customers to have a fitness instructor physically present to lead classes. It also enables fitness staff or customers to schedule group exercise classes, from seven possible choices, during which exer-cise videos will project onto a 135-inch screen.

Although designed for groups, classes can also be set up to allow individuals to follow at their own level. Videos feature a virtual in-structor and assistants who perform the exer-

cise routines at different skill levels.The kiosks are currently located on the first

floor in the spin and aerobics rooms. “We can house 60-70 people for every 40-

minute workout,” said Alexander “The kiosks

are available to customers whenever our facil-ity is open.”

For more information on the Fitness on Re-quest kiosk or the fitness schedules call the Short Fitness Center at 813-828-4496.

Sometimes it is difficult to know if and when to seek medical help for acute health problems, so having professional help at a moment’s notice is invaluable.

The Military Health System’s new Nurse Advice Line for TRI-CARE beneficiaries does just that. It will be available at the 6th Medical Group start-ing June 13, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to help you de-cide whether home care is the best option, or if it is better to see a healthcare provider. To access the NAL, call 813-828-CARE (2273) and select the prompts to speak with a nurse; or call toll free 1-800-TRICARE (874-2273) and select Option 1.

When calling the NAL, a customer service representative will verify your eligibility through the Defense Enrollment and Eligibility Report-ing System. Beneficiaries with an acute healthcare concern or question will be connected with a registered nurse who will ask you medically pertinent questions to determine the next steps and allow the nurse to provide the best advice possible.

The NAL is able to address adult and pediatric issues. If a follow-up is necessary or requested, the NAL will call back to check on yours or your child’s status a few hours later. Same-day appointments may be booked with your Patient Centered Medical Home team through the NAL for any TRICARE Prime beneficiary. If a same-day appointment is not available, the NAL will re-direct you to the closest network ap-proved urgent care center and advise the PCMH team that an urgent care referral is needed, so you will not have to worry about paying any out of pocket co-pays. Without a referral from either your primary care manager or the NAL, beneficiaries will be responsible for non-urgent care when accessing Urgent Care Centers or Emergency Rooms.

All other TRICARE beneficiaries who are not enrolled to the 6th MDG will receive professional health advice about urgent health con-cerns and whether urgent care should be sought. When you permanent-ly change stations and enroll to a different Medical Treatment Facility, the NAL will again be able to book you available same-day appoint-ments with your new PCMH team.

AMC Geo Integration Office

SCOTT AIR FORCE BASE, Ill. — As the U.S. heads into summer, time for tornados and hurricanes, Air Mo-bility Command personnel should know they can access weather maps, from weather radar to hurricane tracking, on via Air Force Portal.

AMC.maps is the common name for the website that hosts AMC’s geospatial data. While several of the datasets include weather, a lot of other map-related data and infor-mation can be found on the site as well.

Common Access Card holders may use the site to search AMC bases for everything from buildings to aircraft lo-cation, or to create customized maps to match a mission need. The maps, maintained by the AMC Geo Integration Office, contain information from civil engineering surveys, earthquakes, aircraft maintenance status, and airfield suitability reports, among other things. Overseas airfields may contain enhanced National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency imagery and data.

Many more tools and services are offered on the web-site. For an introduction to the AMC.maps viewers and its tools, go to the home page and scroll down to find a train-ing presentation and user guides. Other capabilities on the map views include:

u Facility Locator: allows searches by building name or number

u Global aircraft search: uses G081 maintenance datau Draw and Measure: create a customized map to meet

your needsu Snapshot: captures JPEG images for emailingu Airfield locator: search more than 47,000 global air-

fieldsTraining programs are available for AMC organizations.

To set up training on using the maps or for additional in-formation on the mapping program, contact the AMC GIO at amc.maps@us.af.mil or 618-779-4360.

pool covers, buckets, barrels and cans at least once a week.u Keep rain gutters free of debris.u Remove discarded tires and other items that could collect water.u Check for containers or trash in places that may be hard to see,

such as under bushes.u Turn over plastic wading pools when not in use.u Clean and chlorinate swimming pools, including those that are not

being used. A swimming pool that is left untended can produce enough mosquitoes to result in neighborhood-wide complaints.

u Repair and maintain barriers, such as windows and screens, to prevent mosquitoes from entering buildings.

Finally, avoid outdoor activities during dawn and dusk, that’s when mosquitoes are most active. When you are out during these times use repellent and wear long pants and long-sleeved shirts to decrease the area of exposed skin that mosquitoes can bite. While public health and Hillsborough County Mosquito Control are partners in trying to control these extremely bothersome pests capable of transmitting disease, you can help lessen the aggravation and problems caused by mosquitoes.

So, go out and enjoy the outdoors – and don’t forget repellent! Con-tact public health at 827-9601 for more information.

priority in the AOR. My time at Bagram consisted of some of the most challenging, but

rewarding days that I have ever experienced, not only in my career, but in life. Being a part of a mission that is flawlessly managing and supervising all the battle space in Afghanistan, while seeing the real-time differences being made by the MC-12W community was truly a humbling experience.

The most rewarding day of my deployment was when the MC-12W was tasked to watch the election for the president of Afghanistan. This was an apprehensive time because the Taliban had made it very clear that it did not want this election to happen, vowing severe disruption at the polling centers and punishment against those participating. The 4th ERS contributed to making history on April 5, 2014 by mitigat-ing as much disruption as possible through ISR tactics, which allowed millions of Afghan men and women to vote for the next president of Afghanistan. Being able to practice democracy seemed unobtainable for most, but was now a reality.

Over the course of my deployment, I had the opportunity to meet and work with so many great Airmen. I am thankful to have been part of a great team of true professionals and learned a lot from each and every member of the 4th ERS. Being deployed to Bagram and being able to operate in such a capacity was a true honor.

I want to thank my family members and my coworkers at Team Mac-Dill who continued to motivate me through my deployment. Lastly, I especially want to thank my wife for the loving support she provided each and every day.

Finally, communication was the most difficult task to master. In the U.S. Air Force, we rely heavily on the way we communicate requirements to accomplish a task. This was more prevalent since we had to simplify the information to ensure our interpreters who passed on this informa-tion understood it as well. Leaders have always stressed that the key to air power is flexibility, and after this tour I definitely believe it. Even though the air advisor role was not without its daily struggles, working outside my comfort zone to provide the framework for the advancement of the Afghan Air Force was, without a doubt, exceptionally rewarding and one of the highlights of my career.
