Still Serving Joining Digital World Call-Ins Day Late And
Published by 11th Wing Retiree Activities Offices, National Capital Area June 2014 STILL SERVING JOINING DIGITAL WORLD Baseball legend Satchel Paige warned, “Don’t look back, something might be gaining on you.” Ole Satch was right on the money. A year ago, it appeared that increased mail costs would limit distribution of this publication to the Internet. Col. John Moser, director of Retiree Activities Offices at Andrews and Bolling refused to “look back,” and was able to negotiate another year of home mail delivery to nearly 30,000 Air Force retirees and surviving spouses in the National Capital Area. But the budget staff not only looked back, it looked ahead and concluded that increased costs of Still Serving mail delivery to be among necessary cuts in operational expenditures. Thus, effective with our October issue, newsletter readers will remain informed on subjects of interest to the retiree community through the magic of cyberspace. Those without home computers are encouraged to seek assistance of friends, family members and public outlets such as neighborhood libraries and senior centers. Still Serving will be provided on line during the first week of February, June and October. Plans call for additional “bulletins” to be made available in intervening months on the same electronic outlets. Still Serving remains available through the Andrews website -- Andrews.af.mil -- linking to “Retiree Activities Office,” through the courtesy of the 11th Wing Public Affairs Office. At Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, the Navy Public Affairs Office makes Still Serving available through its page on DoD’s video center -- tinyurl.com/jbabnews. An open invitation exists for other websites to get on board for this outreach to the area’s military retiree community. -

President's Page
July07 Prespage Hastings.qxd 6/4/2007 7:08 PM Page 1 President’s Page I have just returned from our Annual Scientific Meeting in New Orleans. There were some glitches re- lated to the late shifting of all functions to one hotel due to construction activities, for which I apologize. None- theless, I feel the meeting was a great success. There is no experience that matches meeting with one's colleagues from around the globe. I came into New Orleans from the east, where the brunt of Hurricane Katrina was experienced. Seeing the devastation and trying to imagine the despair that ac- companied it, I asked the taxi driver about the spirit of the people of New Orleans. He answered immediately that it was positive, enthusiastic, and hopeful. That warmed my heart. Some meeting participants arrived John D. Hastings, M.D. early and joined a Habitat for Humanity effort for the city; no doubt they felt that spirit. International exchange in outreach programs to reach Experiences in New Orleans and musings about the medical schools and aerospace medicine training pro- duties of this office have given me much to ponder. As grams will be discussed.

36Th Commencement Exercises Saturday, the Sixteenth of May · Two Thousand Fifteen
Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences “Learning to Care for Those in Harm’s Way” 36th Commencement Exercises Saturday, the Sixteenth of May · Two Thousand Fifteen The Mace he mace was a weapon of war originating with the loaded club and stone Thammer of primitive man. Although it continued to be used as a weapon through the Middle Ages, during this period it also became symbolic as an ornament representing power. Sergeants-at-Arms, who were guards of kings and other high officials, carried a mace to protect their monarch during processions. By the 14th century, the mace had become more ceremonial in use and was decorated with jewels and precious metals, losing its war-club appearance. Three hundred years later, the mace was used solely as a symbol of authority. The mace is used during sessions of legislative assemblies such as the U.S. House of Representatives, where it is placed to the right of the Speaker. More frequently, maces are seen at university commencements and convocations, exemplifying knowledge as power. The USU mace was a glorious gift from the Honorable Sam Nixon, MD, past chairman of the Board of Regents, and his wife, Elizabeth. The mace was used for the first time at the 1995 commencement ceremony. It is handcrafted in sterling silver and carries the seal of the university along with the emblems of the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force and Public Health Service. The university seal and service emblems are superimposed on the earth’s globe to symbolize the worldwide mission of the university and its graduates. -
