“The whole detachment has done an outstanding job,” said Lt. Col. David Morris, the commanding offi cer of VMGR-252. “We are very fortunate as a squadron to have some very capable, very dedicated Marines.” Scores of anxious friends and family members huddled in the squadron’s hangar to await their loved ones, as a violent thunderstorm delayed their arrival. The 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing Party Band was on hand, playing jazz and Dixieland music to set the mood for a crowd that was brimming with anticipation. “This ensemble is fun,” said Staff Sgt.

Little performances like this make people feel better.” Just before 7:45 p.m., the two aircraft carrying the Marines fi nally touched down on the Cherry Point runway, beneath a rainbow that arched over the fl ight line.

He feels torn between family and work, but he understands that he has to be there. That’s how I felt when I deployed; I was excited, but I missed my family.” Morris said the families of VMGR-252 are apart more than usual because the squadron’s 12 aircraft are tasked to do a variety of missions and deployments in support of the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing and II Marine Expeditionary Force, which makes these reunions more special. “We are a really tightly knit bunch,” said Courtney I.

U.S. Navy and Coast guard boats soon arrived to pull the remaining swimmers from the water.

MCAS CHERRY POINT Marines may journey through most of Cherry Point’s surrounding landscape, but within the air station’s perimeter – deep in the thick brush and tree lines – exists a small animal kingdom. The air station’s infrastructure is blanketed by North Carolina’s scenic swamplands and forests, which is home to many animals – bears, bobcats, beavers, alligators, wild turkeys, foxes and white tail deer, to list a few. “Recently, there was a bear at the front gate,” said Alan D. Steinhauer, conservation law enforcement offi cer with Cherry Point’s game warden staff. “We’ve had frequent bear sightings this year.” The game warden staff handles all wildlife issues or concerns aboard the air station; however, it is not responsible for issues involving domestic animals. “All calls for wildlife should come through us,” said Steinhauer. “We usually get a couple calls a week about wildlife, and they’re typically minor, like a raccoon rummaging in somebody’s building.” The game warden said neighboring wildlife shouldn’t be a call for concern, rather a part of nature that should be appreciated. “I think most of the animals are just traveling through,” explained Steinhauer. “There aren’t many that are constantly seen in the same area.” Steinhauer added that most of the surrounding animals are climate sensitive and, like people, try to avoid the blistering heat. “They want to be out when it’s a specifi c temperature,” said Steinhauer. “Deer, for instance, travel and feed with the moon cycle, but in general early morning and the evening are the prime times to see animals wandering about.” A related wildlife issue is hunting, and it is permitted on the air station during respective seasons, using shotguns, bows or black powder guns. Rifl es are not allowed. Bradley A. Elam, a retired master sergeant who served at Cherry Point and has hunted at the air station since 1992, said, “I like the fact that there is a lot of access, whether you’re a bow hunter or hunt with fi rearms.” Steinhauer said the air station is divided into seven gun and six bow hunting areas, depending on the proximity. State and air station hunting permits are required. September to January is the busiest time for hunting, Steinhauer explained. Crowdedness and overhunting aren’t an issue because there is a limit to how many hunters can be in each area at one time. “The wildlife population is always in excellent shape,” said Elam.

B2 July 22, 2010 The Windsock ETEAM strives to put Marines into college
LANCE CPL. VICTOR A. BARRERA
MARINE CORPS BASE CAMP LEJEUNE Marines who are reaching the end of their enlist- ment and want to further their academic career can use the Elite to Elite Academic Mission to fi nd a col- lege if they meet certain requirements. The Elite to Elite Academic Mission, better known as the ETEAM, ensures that qualifi ed Marines will not need to compete with the mass of applicants for a spot in one of the 13 University of North Carolina colleges. The ETEAM has a contract with the 13 UNC col- leges that guarantees any Marine a spot in one of their slots. This benefi ts Marines in that they do not have to compete with people straight out of high school or a civilian with a better score. “We are looking for quality men and women who are honorably departing the Marine Corps, meet the criteria and want to go to college,” said David Schock, Regional School Liaison for Marine Corps Installations East. “It’s pretty easy; all they do is meet requirements, get selected by the board and they will go to one of their top three college choices.” Requirements for acceptance into the ETEAM in- clude having a North Carolina residency, 70 or above on their armed forces qualifi cation test, a 115 or higher on their general qualifi cation test, a minimum score of 1,000 on their SAT or an ACT score of 22. “We also look for rank, their service and the kind of work ethics,” added Schock. For this year, depending on their end of active ser- vice and when a service member turns in their pack- age for approval, they could start school as soon as fall 2010. Another benefi t of using the ETEAM to fi nd a college in North Carolina is that the GI Bill will fully cover tuition since the campuses are all state schools. “There’s no set number of how many Marines we can put through the program,” said Schock. “The only limit is them not turning in an application.” For more information on the ETEAM, email daivd.
