SITUATION. a. Background. The Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson (JBER) Integrated Pest Management Plan (IPMP) is essential to prevent pest and disease vectors from adversely affecting military operations in peacetime and during contingency operations. The USAF, IAW AFI 32-1053, has directed JBER to develop an IPMP. This plan is a comprehensive tool to plan and implement pest control management, organizational responsibilities and measures to protect the mission and health and morale of all residents and employees. b. Geography. JBER encompasses approximately 74,519 acres of government-owned land. The base’s airfield elevation is 213 feet above sea level. JBER experiences varied climatic conditions as a result of latitude, marine influences and surrounding mountain ranges. Spring temperatures range from 16 to 54 degrees Fahrenheit (F). Summer brings the greatest amount of rainfall for the year and temperatures normally

    176th Wing ● Alaska Air National Guard eGuardian March 5, 2021, SUPPLEMENTAL Commander’s Intent New logo, motto part of wing branding rollout Editorial by Brig. Gen. Anthony Stratton | 176th Wing commander With the founding of the 8144th Air Base Squadron in 1952, Col. Lars Johnson founded the Alaska Air National Guard with a pioneering team of 11 enlisted Airmen and five officers, including himself. With zero aircraft and nothing but a small office nestled atop the bus depot in downtown Anchorage, the group met in a nearby corrugated-metal Quonset hut to make room for the small gang of would-be aviators who embodied the frontier mentality that would steer the Alaska Air National Guard and 176th Wing to become aerial masters of the Arctic. This frontier ethos was no more evident than it was Feb. 10 when I looked out at the frozen landscape surrounding the white fields of JBER’s Malamute Drop Zone while flying in a 210th Rescue Squadron HH-60G Pave Hawk, waiting to step out into crisp 5-degree air during a tandem jump with 212th Rescue Squadron pararescueman Tech. Sgt. Jason Hughes. It was a special event designed to mark a transition of leadership in the 212th that showcased the vision, ingenuity, inter-agency cooperation, drive and grit to thrive and dominate in one of the most challenging environments in the world. While serving as a combat pilot during World War II in New Guinea and the Philippines, Colonel Johnson emblazoned his plane with an arctic wolf and the words, “King of the Tundra.” That arctic wolf would become the emblem and the defining brand for what would later become the 144th Fighter-Bomber Squadron and what is today the 144th Airlift Squadron because Colonel Johnson understood the value of a strong brand that undergirds a strong organization’s ethos and esprit de corps.
