Wing library among seven in Air Force to reach pemier status Thea Skinner 21st Space Wing Public Affairs staff writer

The Peterson library received the Department of Defense Morale Welfare and Recreation Premier Status Award at an annual DoD library workshop in Chicago, Ill., in July. Peterson’s library is one of seven in the Air Force to win the award for exceed- ing core MWR standards to earn premier status. The premier standards involve heightened levels in three of five core standard areas: customer programs and services, technology infrastructure and facilities. The premier standard of- ferings at the library include multimedia stations, 18 computer stations with commercial Internet access and Wi-Fi throughout the library, a PlayStation 3 in the young adult area, and a youth computer work station with children’s educational software. The other core standard areas are: separate areas for different types of materi- als and areas for study, library staff meets qualification standards and receives required training, and library services provides a long range budget plan. “It is nice to know that the library is getting some recognition,” said Kathy Kucharski, 21st Force Support Squadron base librarian. “This is recognition that other people are noticing besides our customers. Recognition that the hard work we have been putting into improving the library has been acknowledged.” Ms. Kucharski has served at Peterson as a librarian since 1999. At the end of each fiscal year, Ms. Kucharski compiles the library annual report that tabulates such operations as the number of books circulated. The data is sent to the DoD and compared against several sets of standards shared amongst all installations until the data reaches the five star level standard of Air Force libraries. Each set of standards contains its own core and premier standards. Library patrons use the computers at the Peterson library Sept. 16. The library received the Department of Defense Morale, Welfare and Recreation Premier Status Award at an annual DoD library workshop in July.

Wanda Major-Barnett who knows all too well the trials faced by cancer patients. “My mom was a breast cancer sur- vivor,” said Sergeant Major-Barnett. “Without the support she was pro- vided, her recovery may have been impaired.” Among the teams participating in the event were local civilian and mili- tary teams from Colorado Springs, the U.S. Air Force Academy, Peterson, Schriever and Fort Carson. The event had nearly 7,000 participants and raised more than $200,000.

Volume 1, Number 1 A long and colorful tradition By Staff Sgt. Stephanie van Geete

Tattoos and the military have a long and colorfulng from history. distant lands Modern displayed pop culture credits the Navy with introducing the art of tattooing to the United States in the early 1900s, when Sailors returni their skin-art souvenirs. Although the times have changed, the military’s lovebly a a good air with 90% tattoosof every- has not. Today, it seems, you couldn’t throw a rock into an Army formation without hitting a Soldier with at least one tattoo. “I would say, across combat arms especially, proba one has a tattoo,” said Sta Sgt. James Campbell, a tattooed infantryman and platoon sergeant with Fox Company, 2nd Battalion, 10th Combat Aviation Brigade. While styles and themes vary greatly depending on the tastes of each individual, there are de nite trends among Army tattoo enthusiasts, with a large number of tattooed Soldiers sporting Americana- and military-themed ink.  at might not seem surprising until you consider that very few civil- ians walk around with their company’s corporate logo permanently etched on their skin. First Sergeant Aki Paylor, Echo Company, 1st Attack Reconnaissance Battalion, 10th CAB senior enlisted advisor, believes that for many Soldiers, tattoos are a way to express themselves as individuals - especially when their day-to-day lives revolve around conforming to Army standards. But when military service has shaped a large portion of your life, it is only natural that who you are and the experiences you have had would be best represented by 21 October 1, 2009 Post News military images. The Mountain “Every tattoo I have on my body says something about who I am, where I’m from, or the things I’ve been through,” explained Paylor, who got the Warrior Ethos tattooed on his le forearm while home on leave in April. “I’ve got 16 years in the service. A er this deployment, I’ll have 37 months www.csmng.com in combat.  e Army is not just a job; it’s a way of life. For me, the Warrior Reviews Ethos - that’s who I am.” Paylor’s tattoo could be classi ed as “pride in service,” one of four themes commonly spotted among tattooed troops. In addition to the eagle and U.S.  ag tattoos falling under the “patriotic” category, many Soldiers use permanent ink to showcase their pride in a speciwww.csmng.com c unit or occupational specialty.
