BY MATTHEW M. BURKE Stars and Stripes KIN, Okinawa — The Army successfully moved a Marine Corps mobile rocket sys- tem on a landing craft at sea for the first time Thursday, a short demonstration of U.S. ability to quickly move the system where it’s needed. The Marine Corps on Okinawa is work- ing to improve its ability to defend the southernmost islands of Japan that stretch over hundreds of square miles between the East China and Philippine seas. The Ma- rines’ M142 High Mobility Artillery Rock- et System, or HIMARS, is a key weapon in its arsenal. Col. Michael Roach, commander of the 12th Marine Regiment, said mobility is the key to success in the event of a conflict in the Pacific. Cooperating with other servic- es and allies is a big part of that. “For the large amounts of water in the region, the main way we’re going to move around here is via landing craft,” he said while overseeing Thursday’s exercise. “So this really helps us maintain that lethality but also helps strengthen our interoperabil- ity with the Army that we don’t get the op- portunity to do as often as we would like.”

Interoperability is a term the military PHOTOS BY MATT BURKE/Stars and Stripes uses often to mean, in this case, the ability of one service branch to use training methods Soldiers with the Army’s 10th Support Group back a Marine Corps vehicle onto the USAV Harpers Ferry during a joint training drill and military equipment of another service. at Kin, Okinawa, on Thursday .

BY FELICIA FONSECA Associated Press ALONG THE BLACK MESA AND LAKE POWELL RAIL- ROAD, Ariz. — One of the larg- est coal-fired power plants in the American West will close before the year ends and others in the region are on track to shut down or reduce their output in the next few years. Owners of the Navajo Generat- ing Station near the Arizona-Utah border are turning to cheaper power produced by natural gas as they and other coal-fired plants in the U.S. face growing pres- sure over contributing to climate change. Those shifts are upending peo- ple’s livelihoods, including those of hundreds of mostly Native American workers in northeast- ern Arizona who mined the coal, loaded it from a roadside silo and helped produce the electricity. Two tribes each will lose mil- lions of dollars in income while workers are forced into early re- tirement. Some employees will stay on to restore the land, while others aren’t sure what’s next. Ted Candelaria, a fourth-gen- eration railroader who voted for President Donald Trump in hopes he would be coal’s saving grace, said the change is bittersweet.

BY MARCIA DUNN Associated Press A supply ship rocketed toward the International Space Station on Saturday with sports car parts, an oven for baking cookies and a vest to protect against radiation. Northrop Grumman launched its Cygnus capsule for NASA from Wallops Island, Va. The 8,200- pound shipment should reach the orbiting lab Monday. “Good launch all the way around,” a ground controller observed. The space station’s astronauts will test the oven by baking choc- olate chip cookies from scratch and try out the new safety vest to gauge its comfort. Both experi- ments are seen as precursors to moon and Mars journeys. Other newly arriving equip- ment will be used in a series of NASA spacewalks later this month to fix a key particle phys- ics detector. Parked outside the space station since 2011, the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer needs new cooling pumps to con- tinue its search for elusive dark matter and antimatter. Italy’s Lamborghini is also along for the ride. It’s sending up samples of carbon fiber used in its sports cars for six months of direct space exposure. Research- ers are considering the materials for medical implants. Like space, the insides of a person’s body are an extreme environment, said Houston Methodist’s Alessandro Grat- toni, who is collaborating with Lamborghini on the experiment.

Northrop Grumman is now controlling two Cygnus capsules in orbit, a first for the Virginia- based company. Named for the swan constellation, the Cygnus launched last spring is flying free of the 250-mile-high space station after completing its grocery run. It will be directed to a fiery reen- try sometime in the near future, taking station trash down with it, according to company officials. The newest Cygnus is officially called the S.S.

He later commanded NASA’s first space station, Skylab, and became known for his cosmic-themed paintings. He died last year. NASA has contracted with Northrop Grumman and SpaceX to keep the space station stocked. This is Northrop Grumman’s 12th successful Cygnus flight since 2013. The company has up- graded both its Cygnus and An- tares rockets to haul more cargo from NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility on Virginia’s Eastern Shore. The space station is currently home to three Americans, two Russians and one Italian. The rocket leaves a contrail after liftoff.

DENVER — A Colora- CO do Springs woman who put an injured bobcat in her car, inches from where her child was in a safety seat, will not be cited. KCNC-TV in Denver reported Colorado Parks and Wildlife de- cided not to cite the woman, who spotted the injured adult male cat while driving, wrapped it in a blanket and put it in the back of her SUV in September. A boy, about 3 years old, was in the back seat. District Wildlife Manager Sarah Watson used a trapping de- vice to remove the 20-pound cat, which was later euthanized due to its injuries. Weeklong peanut festival is underway

DOTHAN — An event AL that bills itself as the world’s largest celebration of the peanut is under way in Alabama. The National Peanut Festival opened Friday in Dothan and continues through next Saturday with rides, exhibits, music and agricultural competitions. Now in its 76th year, the festival began in 1938 as a three-day event with an appearance by agricul- tural scientist George Washington Carver, of Tuskegee. It has been held each year since except dur- ing the 1940s, when organizers took a break for World War II. WILFREDO LEE/AP The festival draws an estimat- ed 200,000 people annually.

JENNIFER SVAN Stars and Stripes KAISERSLAUTERN, Ger- many — The Saturday showdown between Stuttgart and Ramstein for the DODEA Europe Division I girls volleyball title was a match for the ages. The No. 1 seed Panthers and the No. 2 seed Royals battled through five sets – and a bit beyond. The deciding set kept the anx- ious fans packed into the Kaiser- slautern High School gym, as the lead flip-flopped back and forth. The Panthers and Royals tied nine times before the Royals eked out a 21-25, 25-21, 22-25, 25-23, 20-18 victory. The hard-fought win released a MICHAEL ABRAMS/Stars and Stripes torrent of emotions for the Royals, Julia Lombardi hits the ball past the Naples defense of Lena Dieryckx, whom lost in the final to Stuttgart left, and Alexia Vancil in the Division II final at the DODEA Europe last year. volleyball championships in Kaiserslautern, Germany, Saturday. “I’m so excited, I can’t believe MICHAEL ABRAMS/Stars and Stripes Vicenza won 17-25, 25-17,25-19, 25-17 to earn the title. it,” said senior setter Joselyn Ro- sado, who was named the tour- Stuttgart’s Karen Kosinski hits past Ramstein’s Lauren Szczygeil, nament’s Most Valuable Player. left, and Sequoia Juhaz in the Division I final on Saturday.
