PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — April was designated the Month of the Military Child by Secretary of Defense Caspar W. Weinberger in 1986, recog- nizing the contribution the military child makes as their parent or parents serve in the armed forces. Military children may face several obstacles growing up including frequent moves, family separations and rein- tegration issues. Peterson AFB honors the sacrifices made by thousands of military children here by holding several events each year during the month of April. “Our children are our true heroes,” said Dorothy Choate, 21st Force Support Squadron Airman and Family Services Flight chief. “They sacrifice daily solely based upon the choices their parents made. They maintain a significant commitment to their families and the military way of life. That is why it’s important to recognize the contribution of military children alongside (U.S. Air Force photo/Dennis Howk) See Child page 11 PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — Airman 1st Class Rodolfo Amaya, 21st Civil Engineer Squadron fire protection technician, helps Jason Long spray a fire hose at the Peterson Child Development Center April 15.

By Michael Golembesky 21st Space Wing Public Affairs staff writer

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — Have you ever held an item in your hand just before tossing it into the trash bin and thought, should I recycle this? The new dorm recycling program was created to help make this choice easy. Recycling is good for the environment and helps reduce pollution and waste in landfills and oceans, but for it to be effective, it needs to be accessible and convenient. This is one of the factors behind the success of Peterson AFB’s recycling effort. “When I first got (to Peterson) I was sur- prised to see there were no recycle bins in the dorms. I grew up where having a recycling bin in your kitchen was common; it was just something that everyone did. It was something I never really thought about until it wasn’t there,” said Airman 1st Class Alex Smalldon, 21st Security Forces Squadron reports and analysis, and volunteer dorm recycling program creator. Smalldon was on a mission to change the process and contacted Phil Chase, 21st Civil Engineer Squadron pollution prevention manager, to work on a solution to make recycling in the dorm effective and convenient for those living in the dorms. Smalldon already knew about single-stream recycling, where users place all (U.S. Air Force photo/Michael Golembesky) recyclable items into one bin and the machin- PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — Phil Chase, 21st Civil Engineer Squadron pollution prevention manager (left) and Airman 1st Class Alex Smalldon, 21st See Recycling page 9 Security Forces Squadron reports and analysis, stand near the recycling dumpster outside of building 590. More than 250 individual single stream recycling bins have been placed throughout four separate dorm buildings, making it easier and more convenient for Team Pete members to participate in the base-wide recycling effort.

SPACE OBSERVER 10 Thursday, April 24, 2014 www.peterson.af.mil AUAB Jiu-Jitsu family By Senior Airman Jared Trimarchi 379th Air Expeditionary Wing Public Affairs

AL UDEID AIR BASE, Qatar — Being away from family during a deployment can be stressful, and many Airmen find different ways to help cope with the stress. Physical fitness has become a staple in dealing with the stressors of deployments and many Airmen have different methods of working out while deployed. Some lift weights, some join Crossfit, but there are a group of Airmen who help clear their minds through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Four instructors lead more than 300 Airmen a month at Al Udied Air Base, Qatar, to teach them an art form which requires commitment, dedication and a close attention to detail, which are all familiar traits of being in the military. The AUAB Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Club, meets seven days a (U.S. Air Force photo/Senior Airman Jared Trimarchi) week, and is open to all, beginners and veterans are welcomed. Master Sgt.
