CPL. RASHAUN X. JAMES

MCAS CHERRY POINT Some Marines and family members have called the Environmental Affairs Depart- ment aboard the air station with concerns about where they can dispose of their house- hold hazardous waste and electronics. While attending a local Coastal Environmental Partnership meeting, Rick Weaver, an environmental scientist with the Environmental Affairs Department on Cherry Point, received a brochure detailing a series of household hazardous waste and elec- tronics collection days open to residents of Carteret, Craven and Pamlico County. The hazardous materials accepted for disposal include latex and oil paints, used motor oil, lawn and garden fertilizer, pesticides, gasoline, drain openers, paint thin- ners, cooling oil, anti-freeze and batteries. Electronics accepted include computers, television picture tubes, televisions, used cell phones and other electronic waste from households only, no commercial sourc- es. “Disposing of hazardous waste is a pretty common problem in households in our surrounding area,” Weaver said. “These opportunities are rare, and we want to let people know there is a way for them to get rid of these hazardous materials safely.” Weaver went on to speak about the potential dangers of hazardous materials enter- ing the ecosystem. “If these materials are not disposed of properly there is the potential for it to end up in surrounding streams,” Weaver said. “Once it ends up there it has the potential to harm the wildlife. There is also the risk of these materials soaking into the soil and doing signifi cant long-term harm.” In a separate but related incident, some Marines and their family members were concerned about hazardous waste being poured down kitchen sinks.

Two of the planes were flown into the World Trade Center, one into the Pentagon and one crashed in a field, which devastated the country and left many Americans with a loss for words. In acts of honor and heroics hundreds of firefighters were called in and entered the burning towers to rescue as many people they could, with some never to return. “For hours after those towers collapsed all you could hear was the sound of the motion detectors we wear, going off sig- naling that there was no motion from the firefighter who wore it,” said Gunnery Sgt. David A. Stone, training staff noncom- missioned officer for Station Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting. “We have been telling our Marines this all day as we prepared for this training exercise.” More than 15 ARFF Marines conducted night fuel fire training at the Cherry Point fuel pit Sept. 10 just a day before the anniversary of the firefighters who courageously sacrificed themselves while reacting to the attacks on the World Trade Center. “We do this training at night because the air station doesn’t shut down during the night,” said Stone. “They fly planes here all day every day, and it is our job to be there if the worst happens.” The Marines with ARFF were briefed, and then set into groups to fight the three fires that their command had sched- uled. “We have more than 500 gallons of fuel for the Marines to burn tonight, and I want them to work on their basics,” said Stone. After all the fires were out and the Marines had full accountability of gear, they circled around Stone as he gave them some things to think about as they left for the weekend. “In less than 24 hours it will have been nine years since the biggest loss of firefighters ever in our history,” said Stone. “As you all go about your weekend, remember the more than 300 of our fellow firefighters that gave their lives to save the people of 9/11.”

LANCE CPL.BRIAN ADAM JONES Members of Annunciation Parish in Havelock, N.C., display a sign at their second annual Holy Rosary Crusade, Sept. 11. The event paid homage to those who lost their lives nine years ago.

LANCE CPL. BRIAN ADAM JONES

MCAS CHERRY POINT

Across the country Saturday, a nation remembered the ninth anniversary of a day that has not only lived in infamy, but rocked the foundations of peace and catapulted countless service men and women toward war. The community of Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, N.C., found its own way to remember. The community commemorated the hallowed day in different ways. Members of Annuncia- tion Parish in Havelock, N.C., held the second annual Holy Rosary Crusade, where parishioners joined for dance, song, prayer and food. Also, roughly 350 miles away from the air station, Cherry Point Marines paid tribute to one of their own. Elements from Marine Aerial Refueler Squadron 252 traveled to West Chester, Pa., to honor a former Marine in their squadron who was a victim of the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. Mike LANCE CPL.BRIAN ADAM JONES Horrocks served as a pilot with VMGR-252 almost 20 years ago, and to the Marines of VMGR- A parishioner at Annunciation Parish in Havelock, 252, once you are a member of the squadron – you are always a member of the squadron.

The church event offered food, dancing Horrocks died on Sept. 11, 2001, while serving as the co-pilot of United Flight 175 that crashed into the World Trade and prayer in commemoration of the terrorist attacks Center. of Sept. 11. More than 30 Marines from VMGR-252 conducted a flyover Saturday at the University of West Chester, Horrocks’ alma mater. Horrocks was a football legend at the university, and Saturday the university immortalized him with a statue and a scholarship in his honor. Lt. Col. David C. Morris, the commanding officer of VMGR-252, spoke at the ceremony. Morris said VMGR-252’s role in the memorial was important to call attention to the values Horrocks held dear, values that Morris said were in- trinsically reflective of his squadron. “I talked about the example he set that still reflects on the Marines of today,” Morris said. “Dedication, answering a higher calling, teamwork. Those are the things we want to call attention to. Those are the things Mike stood for.” While Morris and his Marines honored their own in the Philadelphia area, back in Havelock, retired gunnery sergeant Sally C. Kelley, now a civilian employee with the Cherry Point facilities directorate, led fellow parishioners at Annun- ciation through the rosary, fighting through tears when she referenced 9/11. Kelley said she remembered being a career planner at Marine Aviation Logistics Squadron 14 that fateful day nine years ago and could not believe her ears when she heard the news over the radio. “Since I retired in January of 2002, every year on Sept. 11 I always go to church or light a candle at home and say a prayer in remembrance of the pain and suffering endured by those who lost loved ones,” Kelley said. Morris summed up his feelings – “It is vitally important to remember. That day was the start of everything we’re do- ing now. It was the genesis of the war on terrorism. That day defined our squadron.”

NOTEBOOK Kenseth: Unlikely to repeat ‘03

Matt Kenseth, the driver whose 2003 run to the Sprint Cup championship has been cited by many as the reason the Chase format was SupermanSuperman adopted, isn’t predicting a repeat of his results from seven years ago. In ’03, Kenseth won the title with one win and an average finish of 10.2. He finished the season with a 90-point advantage over runner- up Jimmie Johnson despite a blown engine and a 43rd-place finish in the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway. This year, he’s winless so far and has rarely been a contender for victory in the 26-race regu- still?still? lar season. Still, his finishes were consistent enough to earn him a Chase berth. He said his chances this year aren’t as good as he’d like them to be. “I think it depends how we start,” he told reporters at Richmond on Saturday. “If you look at the first 26 races, everyone will sit up here and tell you they have a chance for the champi- onship and mathematically that’s true, but not if we run like we did for 26 races. “It seems like we average usually around a 12th place finish, and certainly that’s not going to win the championship over 10 races.” Childress teams all in for Chase Last year, no drivers at Richard Childress Racing made it into the Chase. This year, all Jimmie Johnson (NASCAR photo) three RCR drivers will run for the title. Jeff Burton, who will be in the Chase along with teammates Clint Bowyer and Kevin Harvick, said much of the credit for Can Johnson rebound again, or is it anybody’s Chase this year? the turnaround – which actually began in hen it was all said and done in the leader. him a run for his money.
