Franconia News … in USAG Ansbach: German-American Student Partnership, Pg FranconiaThe News Serving the Franconia Military Community — Ansbach, Bamberg and Schweinfurt Vol. No. IX, Issue 18 May 11, 2012 Kids’ Soldier Day a Big Hit Story by Bianca Sowders Photos: Courtesy of Rainbow ES PTSA About 320 children of Rainbow Elementary School were recently invited by the 412th Aviation Support Battalion to spend a day like their Soldier parents; Percy Wilson, school counselor at Rainbow Elementary School organized the event with the 412th ASB. The event was to help demystify the deployment process and help prepare the students for the upcoming deployment by introducing them to routine tasks their par- ents may perform while downrange. The goal was to alleviate fears and anxieties children often associate with deployment and answer some of their questions. Each child was assigned to a “squad” upon arrival and learned how to stand in for- mation and march in step to cadence. The squads then started to participate in activi- ties at 18 stations and learned things like land navigation, using a radio, read a map and compass and much more. The students did PT and mastered an obstacle course, tasted real MREs (Meals, Ready to Eat) and were allowed to sit in a Black- hawk helicopter and a Humvee military vehicle. After lunch they were all presented an “Honorable Discharge” certificate in a cere- mony before they returned to their school.

SHARP Event Tours USAREUR Story: Sgt. Michael Reinsch Contributor: USAG Ansbach Staff The Ansbach Military Community gathered at the Katterbach and Illesheim Theaters to witness the "Can I Kiss You" performances on April 27. The show is about innocent bystanders and the im- portance of communication in a relationship. The show features Mike Domitrz, the author of a book called "May I Kiss You," a how -to book on relationships. The performance is part of The Date Safe Project, a program aimed at preventing sexual assault by teaching audiences about consent, bystander intervention and supporting the victims of sex- ual assault. "The Date Safe Project is all about helping people have healthier, safer, smarter intimacy," said Mike Domitrz. When performed on a military installation, his show is geared to- ward making people aware of how it can affect service members and units when someone is victim to a sexual assault. "We have three main missions when we are on an installation; we teach how we can verbally communicate for consent, how to inter- vene when somebody is using alcohol to facilitate a sexual as- sault, and how to support survivors," Domitrz said. "What is unique about our program is that it is fully integrated for single and married people." Even though Domitrz's show has a serious message to convey to his audience he does so by mixing a bit a stand-up comedy into his routine. Soldiers and staff personnel who were present for the show agreed they learned a lot but also very much enjoyed the approach to making the pertinent and necessary points. Dormitz began conducting these events as a result of a close fam- ily member being sexually assaulted. It was his own experience and pain that motivated him to do this work; his passion is obvious to any person who hears him speak. "Sexual assault is a society-wide issue," Domitrz said. "Whether I am speaking at a college campus, at a middle school, high school or the U.S. military, all ages, we need to discuss verbal respect for partners, decision making and boundaries."

Abstract The study of values in Europe, observable through the prism of welfare, consists of an examination of the values of various groups in the domain of welfare, e.g. in the expression and provision of ‘basic’ individual and group needs. The different values and practices of the majority and the minorities are a source of tension in the German society. German policy tries to direct the interaction between majority and minorities towards more cohesion and solidarity. At the same time it becomes more obvious that minority groups influence and challenge majority values.
