  • Combat Skills Prepare Airmen for Deployment Staff Sgt
    Farewell to the Chief! Come out to the Fitness Center Annex Friday starting at 9 a.m. to wish 50th Space Wing Command Chief Master Sgt. Russell Kuck a fond farewell! VOL. 8, NO. 14 APRIL 6, 2006 Colorado Springs, Colo. www.schriever.af.mil Combat skills prepare Airmen for deployment Staff Sgt. Don Branum 50th Space Wing Public Affairs What difference does Expeditionary Combat Skills train- ing make for Airmen who are preparing to deploy? For one satellite systems operator with the 4th Space Operations Squadron here, the answer is: a big one. “I feel better prepared now than before,” Senior Airman Dale Harris said. “If your career field doesn’t deploy, you should get this kind of refresher training every couple of years.” Airman Harris was one of 100 Airmen who participated in a Wing Expeditionary Readiness Inspection here March 14 to 16. He will deploy with Aerospace Expeditionary Forces 3 and 4. The WERI was the first deployment training environment Airman Harris had experienced since Basic Military Training’s Warrior Week at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas. The ECS training included convoy training, improvised explosive device awareness, individual tactical maneuvers, M-16 familiarization, rifle fighting and integrated base defense. “They made it realistic—like it would be out in the field, not like we were sitting in a tent all day,” he said. Airman Harris’ appraisal is not the only positive review the combat training has received. Several Airmen photo by Kim Kruis-Johnson approached Lt. Col. Paul Scholl, 50th Security Forces Airmen practice individual tactical maneuvers during a Wing Expeditionary Readiness Inspection here March 14 to 16.

The following is an illustrative but not exhaustive listing of military oriented biographies of veterans whose initial exposure to non-family “brotherhood” were as members of various social and final clubs as undergraduates at Harvard. CIVIL WAR - HARVARD COLLEGE BY CLASS 18 34 Major General Henry C. Wayne CSA Born in Georgia – Georgia Militia Infantry Henry was the son of a lawyer and US congressman from Georgia who was later appointed as justice to the US Supreme Court by President Andrew Jackson.

  • Harvard's Interaction with the Military
    Harvard University & the US Military – an introspection INTRODUCTION Since the middle of the 20th century, Harvard has unjustifiably been labeled as a bastion of left wing, anti- military elitists in the forefront of the myopic “Blame America first” radicals. However, the predominate opinion of faculties & undergraduates at most universities have tended to skew to the left since the Baby Boomers revolted in the late 1960’s against the values and traditions of their “greatest generation” parents who won World War II. For several recent decades, the decline in patriotism and service to country among many young Americans has been compounded by narcissistic lack of responsibility, the pleasure principle driving promiscuous sex and the growing use of illegal drugs, revisionist history, the breakdown of the traditional family and biased multi-media communications. In reality, Harvard alumni reflect a bell curve of opinions and many have demonstrated courage, integrity and commitment by serving in the US military from the American War for Independence to the current World War against Islamic Fundamentalist terrorism. The prime purpose of this introspection is to proudly promulgate the untold story of the long Crimson line of Harvard warriors as a role model for current and future undergraduates at Harvard and elsewhere. A secondary objective of this paper is to review the positive Harvard policies of the past that have helped to nurture and develop many Harvard heroic veterans and identify what needs to be done for Harvard to again have a preeminent patriotic role in educating and developing future military leaders. Harvard’s interaction with the military Harvard College is the oldest university in the United States which was established by the General Court of the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1636.
