Kibbey 367th MPAD COB BASRA – The expansive new chapel at Con- tingency Operating Base Basra saw its fi rst service Christmas Eve with a crowd that fi lled the 300 seats and saw more than a few standing to hear the mes- sage of hope and vigilance delivered by Chaplain (Lt. Col.) John Morris. Not traditional in every aspect, the service began with a quick note on procedures should an indirect fi re warning sound. It was a reminder to those present that, as Morris, 34th Infantry Division chaplain, had previously noted, those gathered to celebrate their faith and their love for fellow human beings should be the biggest objective. Still, the realities of a war zone were not lost on the congregation. In fact, the language of Soldiers made its way into the Meditation by Morris in a way that brought new life to the Christmas story for many present. “That’s just a style of communication I developed over the years as an Army chaplain,” Morris said of his presentation of Herod as a commanding general and of the Magi seeking Jesus’ “grid” [map coordi- nates]. “I try to take the Biblical text and apply it to con- temporary reality,” he said. Choir leader Capt. Christen Dixon, Moncks Corner, S.C., 14th Brigade Border Transition Team, said he felt the chaplain’s message was “very appropriate.” Photo by Sgt. Benjamin R.

  • Crustal Melting, Ductile Flow, and Deformation in Moun- Tain Belts
    RESEARCH FOCUS Crustal melting, ductile fl ow, and deformation in moun- tain belts: Cause and effect relationships Mike Searle DEPT. EARTH SCIENCES, OXFORD UNIVERSITY, SOUTH PARKS ROAD, OXFORD OX1 3AN, UK ABSTRACT Exhumed sections of migmatites are beautifully exposed in the middle crust of old orogens such as the Proterozoic Wet Mountains of Colo- rado and young Tertiary–active orogens such as the Himalaya and Karakoram. Migmatites and leucogranites occur both on a regional scale (e.g., Greater Himalayan Sequence) and along more restricted shear zones and strike-slip faults (e.g., Karakoram, Jiale, and Red River faults). Melting and deformation are clearly diachronous across orogenic belts over space and time, yet in general, deformation must precede regional metamorphism and melting in order to thicken the crust and increase pressure and temperature. Some deformation can be syn- chronous with partial melting and there is almost always post-melting deformation along shear zones or faults. The distinction between pre-, syn-, and post-kinematic granites in three dimensions, in pressure-temperature space, and in time becomes critical. In particular, mapping of macro- and micro-structures combined with precise U-Th-Pb dating of migmatitic leucosomes and granitic rocks in deformation zones can be used to constrain the relative timing of metamorphism, melting, ductile shearing and brittle faulting. In the Himalaya, multiple sill intru- sions emanating from a regional migmatite terrane fed growth of leucogranite bodies over a time span of ~30 m.y. and channel fl ow, the southward extrusion of a partially melted section of the mid-crust, occurred along the Himalaya during the Miocene from ca.
