LANCE CPL. SCOTT L. TOMASZYCKI MCAS CHERRY POINT A Marine’s life is already hard enough with juggling family, work, duties as a Marine and deployments. De- spite the challenge, some Marines add another factor to their lives and continue their education by enrolling in college. For those who choose to balance these aspects of their lives successfully, can later open new doors to future success. After many hours of hard work and dedication, more than 90 members of the Cherry Point community gradu- ated from various colleges during a ceremony at the air station theater June 2. “I’m a single mom with two kids, so it’s a balance,” said Stephanie Alexis, a corporal in the Marine Corps Re- serves. “Going to school is almost as much work as having a newborn to take care of.

Pastor, the director of safety and stan- dardization for HMLA-467, said the process of putting the brief together and executing the day’s events was successful due to the enthusiasm of those involved. “We had feedback from the Marines saying they didn’t like sitting in the station chapel watching a bunch of power point presentations, so I came up with the idea of doing it outside with a form of fi eld meet competition,” said Pastor. “A couple of my Marines went about recruiting teachers and giving them guidance on how to teach the class, how to make it entertaining, and how to make a game out of each class. It was just a little bit of running around and asking people to help. Everybody was enthu- siastic about it.” According to Pastor, the secret of the success was the competitive nature of the event. In every class, there were points that each of the six teams could earn. The winning team would receive a day off work so the Marines would actually care about the results. “I didn’t see so many people falling asleep or anything, so I think more people paid attention and actually picked up on the stuff we were taught today,” said Farrell.

LANCE CPL. SCOTT L. TOMASZYCKI MCAS CHERRY POINT When a group of Marines are told to be in green-on-green PT gear, you will see that they all match until you look down at their feet. One thing Marines usually don’t have in common is the type of shoe they wear. Every person’s body is built differently – especially the feet. Some people have high arches, some have fl at feet, but the one thing they have in common is they are able to fi nd and purchase the exact shoe that fi ts their unique needs. Personnel from Naval Health Clinic Cherry Point recently held classes in the Semper Fit Center to teach Marines and Sailors how to pick the proper running shoe for their feet, which can help reduce the chance of injuries. “The feet are the fi rst contact that the body has to the fl oor, so it’s really important to LANCE CPL.

As part of their transfer of authority, VMFA-122 and VMA-513 fl ew the skies of Afghanistan together, less than a day after Lee landed the squadron’s fl agship AV- 8B at Kandahar Airfi eld. “It is uncommon for different type-model-series fi xed- wing aircraft to fl y as a section during combat operations,” explained Capt. Jonathan Reed, a VMFA-122 F/ A-18 Hornet pilot. “As far as working with them, that was the fi rst time I’ve done it, and it was no problem at all,” explained Capt. Andrew Biddell, a VMA-513 pilot. Flying together in sections, the VMFA-122 Werewolves helped familiarize the Harriers of their new area of operations, the dust-colored blanket of land not too dissimilar from the ranges of Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, Ariz., that VMA-513 calls home. The operations also included aerial refueling, cour- tesy of Marine Aerial Refueler Transport Squadron 252, MCAS Cherry Point, N.C.-based, whose KC-130J Hercu- les aircraft supported both platforms. “I would say it’s a milestone,” said Reed, whose squadron recently completed its second combat tour since Viet- nam. “Both pilot communities are very well-versed in (close-air support).” Another milestone for the Werewolves, as well as the Marine Corps, was the fi rst employment of the GBU-54 for an F/A-18 squadron in the Corps. The GBU-54 is a laser-based bomb guidance system that provides greater precision in targeting both stationary and moving targets. The Nightmares, for their part, are the fi rst Harrier squadron entering the fray since VMA-231 departed Af- ghanistan in May 2010, and VMA-513 is also underway on its fi rst Afghanistan deployment since 2003.

PFC. SEAN DENNISON KANDAHAR AIRFIELD, Afghanistan – Marine Attack Squadron 513 airframe mechanics clean one of the squadron’s AV-8B Harriers at Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan, June 3. Keeping Harriers free of Afghanistan’s fine sand, often called moon dust by Marines, helps ensure the multimillion dollar jets are ready on a moment’s notice. “We haven’t seen anything yet,” said Staff Sgt. Aaron Palacios, the VMA-513 airframe division chief and San Bernadino, Calif., native. “This weather is similar to Yuma. I don’t think things will get too crazy.”

The children were separated into three age groups; 3-5, 6-10 and 11-15. “My son and I always have a good time during this event,” said Myhand. “Fishing is a great way to spend time together and to create memories. I learned how to fish from my father and now my son is learning from me. It is a part of our heritage to enjoy nature.” Myhand is a chaplain with Marine Aircraft Group 27.

It’s a “We need to reach out more to young people so the day isn’t about going out and barbecuing, being out of school or off of work, it’s really something special and we should pass it on to more generations.” One of the recurring themes during the ceremony was the human cost of the wars to preserve those freedoms. North Carolina Rep. Norman W. Sand- erson stated that more than one million service members have died in battle since the American Revolution in 1775. While the cost of freedom has been high, remembrance of the price makes it mean something. “Let us never forget that under these stones there are dreams that will never be fulfi lled, there are books that will never be written, there are songs that will never be sung, they gave the price for you and I so that we might enjoy the freedom that we have,” said Sanderson. “There’s a quote that says, ‘we are what we remember.’ If we remember the cost of freedom, we will remain free. Our freedom can never be taken from us, but we can give it away. Let’s not give it away. Let’s not make the sacrifi ces of one million men and women to no avail.” A new generation of troops does remember and will keep the memory of past service members alive. “It was a great honor to be able to pay respect for the people that have come before me and let me sleep safe in my bed at night,” said Lance Cpl.

NOTEBOOK Penske credits team ‘integrity’

Roger Penske’s Sprint Cup teams are on a roll of late. Brad Keselowski won the pole for the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte and was poised to win late in the race. Then on Sunday he won the STP 400 at Kansas Speedway. His teammate Kurt Busch won the pole at Kansas and led the most laps only to lose out on fuel-mileage at the end. Penske said in the winner’s interview at Kansas that his two teams are thriving because they’re working closely together instead of ven- turing out in different directions with chassis set- ups and such. “It’s so easy to get going in a different direc- tion,” Penske said. “You see something that another team is doing and you go back and forth. And I think we’ve pretty much stayed together. I think the integrity and the transparency that [Keselowski’s crew chief Paul Wolfe] talked about with [Busch’s] 22 car has really paid off. “And the cars are better. Obviously the more that Brad runs in this series, he’s going to get better. You can see it. His restarts, the way he’s coming in the pits.” Penske went on to say that his pit crews are performing well, the Dodge engines are strong, and the whole company is giving it a full-bore effort. “We’ve got 350 people that are committed to these two guys and these two teams,” he said.
