Thursday, September 26, 2013 Vol. 57 No. 38 Colorado Airmen, C-130s return from Southwest Asia By Maj. Corinna Moylan Public Affairs

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — The 302nd Airlift Wing wel- comed home approximately 150 Airmen Sept. 18 from a four-month de- ployment to Southwest Asia. The wing’s Air Force Reservists and Active Duty personnel provided C-130 airlift support to U.S. Central Command operations. While deployed, members of the 302nd Operations Group flew hundreds of airlift missions moving troops, wounded warriors and cargo. The deployed members of the 302nd Maintenance Group provided aircraft maintenance support ensuring fully mission capable C-130s in Southwest Asia. “Once again this wing’s Airmen have succeeded in expertly performing all aspects of a challenging airlift mission in a demanding desert environment during the extreme heat of the summer months,” said Col. Jay Pittman, commander of the 302nd AW. Reservist Capt. Daniel Lambrecht, a 731st Airlift Squadron pilot and wood worker in his civilian job, said that though this was his first deploy- ment, he felt prepared. “These guys set us up pretty well with knowing what to expect,” he said. “The unit as a group worked pretty well together and nobody was left be- hind. We were over there as a family. We train together and fight together.” According to Lambrecht, heat, humidity, long hours, good camaraderie and a sense of fulfillment defined his deployment experience. “We did some aeromedical evacuation missions. You leave from one of those missions and you always have a good sense of accomplishment because you are getting somebody back that needs it,” he said. “We hauled a lot of people and a lot of cargo,” That was the basis of a most of our missions. (We had) pretty long missions and long days and after you were done you might be tired, but you always had that sense of accomplishment and that felt good.” Lambrecht said he would do it again, but ideally, not right away. “It was definitely worth it. I would go again, but I’ll give it a little time yet to figure out who my family is again and they can do the same for me.” Lambrecht’s wife and two year old son awaited his return. “My wife looked great and got a special shirt that said ‘My Airman comes home today,”” he said.

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — A jet cutting through the cool, overcast sky provided a somber backdrop for the Peterson POW/MIA ceremony Sept. 20 at the base chapel. The guest speaker was retired Col. Paul Robinson, an Air Force pilot taken as a POW in Vietnam July 1, 1972. He was held captive until March 28, 1973, when he was released following the signing of the Paris Peace Treaty in January. He shared his story of being held prisoner. Robinson was assigned to the 469th Tactical Fighter Squadron at Korat Royal Thai Air Base, Thailand, in January 1972. On July 1, he was flying an F-4 Phantom on a patrol mis- sion over Vietnam when his aircraft was hit by a surface to air missile. He ejected and landed in a rice paddy north of Hanoi, and was quickly surrounded by farmers and a militia. They stripped him of his uniform, blindfold and beat him, and took him to the infamous Hanoi Hilton for interrogation. He was held there with hundreds of other POWs — about 700 were held POW during the Vietnam War — in poor conditions. They slept on cement floors with only a rice mat (U.S. Air Force photo/Dennis Howk) and subsisted on a diet of pumpkin and wheat soup. PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — Chief Master Sgt.

Robinson was an Air Force pilot taken as a POW in Vietnam July See POW/MIA page 17 1, 1972, and was the guest speaker at the Peterson POW/MIA observance at the base chapel. Robinson was held POW for nine months at the Hanoi Hilton.

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — A bright, sunny day set the stage for the first ever Space World Series game here Sept. 20. The Space World Series was a softball game of colonels and chief master sergeants from the 21st Space Wing versus colonels and chief master sergeants from the 50th Space Wing. Naturally, Team 2-1 took home the victory with a final score of 21 — 15, with Team 2-1’s starting pitcher, Chief Master Sgt. Rich Redman, 21st Space Wing command chief, earning the win. While the purpose of the game was to bring two space wings together for an afternoon of fun and camaraderie, there was also an underlying competitiveness to win. “There was a competitive edge to it when taking on the other wing, but it was really just a morale builder for all of us to get our wings out to cheer on their team,” said Chief Master Sgt. Vincent Persichetti, 21st Civil Engineer Squadron chief enlisted manager. “It was just a very fun time.” Team 2-1 found part of their motivation to win from the guest announcer, the 50th Space Wing public affairs team. “The 50th Space Wing PA who called the game, turned out to be a little biased toward the 50th,” said Perisichetti. “It actually served as a motivator for us to win.” And win they did, but not without having a little fun as well. “Everyone was really out to have a good time and put forth their best effort,” said Persichetti. “And it was just icing on the cake when we took home the win.” While there is no Space World Series trophy, the winners did not leave empty handed. “Col. Liquori (50th SW commander) and I made a deal before the beginning of the game that the losing team would display the winning team as ‘Masters of Softball’ on their base marquee,” said Col. John Shaw, 21st Space Wing com- mander. “Since we won, we will be known as “masters of softball” to all of Team Schriever...at least until next year.” This year’s Space World Series was such a success that next (U.S. Air Force photo/Robb Lingley) year’s game is already in the works, except this time it will PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — Chief Master Sgt.

CHEYENNE MOUNTAIN AIR FORCE STATION, Colo. — Communities are defined by how well their people come and work together, especially in times of crises, to make them safer and better. Forged in the crucible of fires and floods, the Colorado Springs community is stronger than ever. Like our community, Cheyenne Mountain Air Force Station was overwhelmed with record rainfall and flash floods recently. On the night of Sept. 12, CMAFS experienced a major landslide, when an estimated 7,200 cubic yards of mud, rock and forest debris cascaded down the mountain and blocked the north portal, the primary entrance to the underground complex. Fortunately, no one was injured and there was no operational impact inside the mountain. With record flood- ing, our people and drainage systems were overwhelmed. Subsequently, we reached out to the surrounding military and civilian community for help. Soon after requesting help, Fort Carson had engineers from the 615th Engineer Company, 52nd Engineer Battalion, 4th Infantry Division, on site with heavy equipment removing debris from the portal. By Sept. 14, engineers had a single- vehicle lane open to the north portal. And despite heavy rains Sept. 15 and 16, they were able to open two lanes of traffic by Sept. 18 and re-channel water into drains instead of further into the north portal or around NORAD Road, which suffered erosion. Further downstream, Peterson’s 21st Civil Engineer Squadron and CMAFS’ 721st CES opened clogged cul- verts, re-channeling water away from Broadmoor Bluffs and mitigating further NORAD Road erosion. Their efforts (U.S. Air Force Photo/Robb Lingley) coupled with Fort Carson’s efforts enabled the north portal CHEYENNE MOUNTAIN AIR FORCE STATION, Colo. — Airmen from the 21st Civil Engineer Squadron at Peterson AFB work to clear nearly 7,200 and NORAD Road to safely re-open and allow all CMAFS cubic yards of debris that collapsed during a rockslide at Cheyenne Mountain Sept. 12. The Airmen from the 21st CES worked hand-in-hand with the personnel back to work by Sept. 19. In addition, Peterson’s CMAFS engineer squadron as well as with Soldiers from Fort Carson who helped clear the debris within a week’s time. 21st and 302nd Force Support squadrons helped feed per- sonnel, and the 21st Logistics Readiness Squadron provided Station 16 to advise and assist in mitigating flood damage natural disaster.

Cooking equipment is involved in about 150,000 home fires per year, and many of those fires start because people aren’t paying attention. And while a few minutes may not seem like much time to be away from what’s Friends cooking, that’s all it takes to start a fire that could destroy your home and harm your family. The National Fire Protection Association has chosen the theme “Prevent Kitchen Fires” for Fire Prevention Week, Oct. 6-12. During that week, the 21st Civil Engineer Squadron’s Fire Emergency Services personnel will be out in the community teaching young children about how kitchen fires can start, and what kids and families Find your new can do to prevent these fires from starting in the first place. By teaching kids about fire safety, we can make sure that they know just what to do in the event of a home fire, knowledge that could very well save lives. Best Friend in According to the latest NFPA research, cooking is the leading cause of home fires. One out of three home fires begins in the kitchen — more than any other place in the home. Cooking fires are also the leading cause our Classified of home fire-related injuries. “Most often when we respond to these fires the occupants tell us they only left the room for a minute,” said Section. Burke Ferrin, Peterson assistant fire chief. “Sadly, that’s all it takes for a dangerous fire to start.” Ask these questions to keep your family fire safe: • Do you always pay attention to things that are cooking? • Do you watch the stovetop when frying, grilling or broiling food? • If you must leave the kitchen for even a short period of time, do you turn off the stove? (The rule-of-thumb in 3 Lines the kitchen is, if you’re cooking on the stovetop, stay in the kitchen; if you’re cooking in the oven, stay in the house) • Do you keep things that can burn, dish towels, curtains, or paper at least three feet away from the stove?

Angelita Colón-Francia Air Force Public Affairs Agency, Operating Location

WASHINGTON (AFNS) — Air Force Space Command’s top official said sequestration is the biggest threat to the nation’s space and cyberspace capabilities. Gen. William L. Shelton made this declaration Sept. 17 at the Air Force Association’s 2013 Air & Space Conference and Technology Exposition here. “Because of the mind-numbing mechanics of sequestra- tion no program will be spared,” he said. “What that means is all programs will get broken. This law represents a bigger threat to our capability than almost anything that we can think (our) adversaries are dreaming up.” Shelton oversees a command that includes more than 40,000 Airmen, civilian workers and contractors responsible for supporting space and cyberspace operations, as well as the development and acquisition of space systems. The com- mand’s constellation of satellites provide warning of missile launches, cueing for missile defenses, national and military satellite communications, navigation and timing informa- tion from GPS, precise weather forecasting information, and surveillance of space. Shelton said space and cyberspace systems like these are “foundational capabilities” to the nation and joint military forces. “There’s not an operation conducted, anywhere, at any level, that is not somehow dependent on space and cyber- space,” Shelton said. “In my mind, it’s true across the spec- trum of conflict, it’s at all echelons of command.” In fiscal 2013, the Air Force scaled back on contracts and brought offline outdated systems, like the Air Force Space (U.S. Air Force photo/Airman 1st Class Aaron Stout) Surveillance Fence. Fiscal 2014 will require additional sig- Gen. William L.

Shelton said going forward, the status quo is not a viable visible, almost like a utility that you plug into. It’s always “I’ve got no other resources that aren’t absolutely critical option. there. And, we are very happy that we can provide that kind capabilities for combatant commanders,” Shelton said. “If “As we look at our defense priorities in coming months it of capability and it seems to be so seamless.

they just want to get out of town for an adventure, said Peterson. “We have some really awesome trips; Utah, Aspen, Crested Butte.” If outdoor recreation doesn’t have what you are looking for, Peterson welcomes ideas. “I am always open for ideas. I try to plan things that I think would be fun; we want to hear what the Airmen want to do,” said Peterson. “Airmen can come to us and say — ‘Hey, I want to go mountain biking in Utah — do you have any fellow Airmen that want to come along? Alright, let’s go!’ I can then put the trip together and get them the best rates and prices.” Sometimes it’s not just about having fun; sometimes it is about relieving stress and tension. “It’s a morale boost; everyone needs a getaway,” said Peterson. “Especially when they come back from deploy- ment or if they are getting ready to go on deployment. Those are two big transitions and being able to go with your family, or by themselves to have fun, it gets their mind off that stress for a little while.” The winter season is the busiest time of the year for the outdoor rec team. “SNOFEST is the most popular event we have. We sell out every year,” said Peterson. “We go up to SNOFEST (at Keystone resort) every year and because we are part

EOD not tire(d) By Craig Denton PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — While many people warm up their first cup of coffee and check their email in the morning, the 21st Explosive Ordnance Disposal Flight warms up in a different fashion. The flight preps their muscles by flipping a 300-pound tire down Duluth Avenue, just the be- ginning of an intense physical fitness program. The EOD Flight participates in physical training five days a week, and two of those days they train with the 21st Civil Engineer Squadron. “Team building is a large part of our PT program and we incorporate it as much as we can,” said Master Sgt. Jeremy Raine, 21st EOD Flight chief, adding that EOD is a very physical job, but every Air Force member should strive to be as fit as possible. In addition to PT, the flight reviews career-field specific training, a must for their profession. “Our mission here is to provide emergency re-
