Suicide stand-down Community takes day to focus on preventing suicide

By Wendy Brown

U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden Public Affairs Office

“Remember, even in the depths of crisis, you still have a choice. Reach out. You are not weak. You are not alone.

Look to your left. Look to your right. We are here. Shoulder to shoulder, Soldier to Soldier, ready to help.”

Those were the words of Jack Benson, a suicide prevention expert and a founder of the Veteran’s Crisis Line, as he spoke before hundreds of U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden Soldiers at the Wiesbaden Fitness Center during Suicide Prevention Stand-Down Day, Sept. 20.

The day began with a

five-kilometer “Run for Life” at 6:30 a.m., and continued with Benson’s talk to Soldiers between the ranks of private and specialist. Later, Benson spoke again to more than 900 civilians and Soldiers with a rank of sergeant through brigadier general.

That event included skits, talks from subject matter experts and a push-up and burpee competition. Afterward, people could learn more about suicide prevention resources during an informational fair.

Garrisons throughout the Army are holding Suicide Prevention Stand-Down Days in September in an effort to eliminate suicide in the military.

In the first 155 days of 2012 there were 154 suicides, and during that time period, there were 127 combat deaths, said Sgt. 1st Class Edwin Lauderback during the event.

Statistically speaking, there is a good chance someone at U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden will die by suicide this year, Benson said.

“Perhaps somebody in this room,” he said.

“So who is the Soldier who needs help?” Benson asked.

“If you find yourself looking around the room trying to pick that person out ― if you think it might be the weak link in your unit ― you’re probably See Stand-down on page 3

The 44th Expeditionary Signal Battalion shared wires and wisdom with over 1,000 communication professionals from about 40 NATO partners Sept.

7-20 at Combined Endeavor 12, the largest multinational communications exercise in the world, at the Grafenwoehr Training Center.

This year’s theme during Combined Endeavor was Coalition Information Dominance.

The exercise helps to improve U.S., European and NATO military communications and computer network interconnectivity, and to help nations partner together in responding to regional crises or disasters.

During the exercise ,5th Signal Command provided help in multiple ways.

“We have a few sections from within 5th Signal Com-

mand that are supporting this exercise,” said Jeffery D. Mack, an exercise planner and satellite communications manager at 5th Signal Command. “Plans and Engineering designed the network, 44th Expeditionary Signal Battalion has two satellite transport terminals on-site providing transport and one network technician to monitor the network. The 69th Signal Battalion provided support, extending the command and control network and provided Defense Switched Network lines wherever requested. The 7th Theater Tactical Signal Brigade rotated four network technicians to support monitoring the network.

This year 5th Signal picked up a bit more of the slack during Combined Endeavor than in before.

Community flu shot schedule

Elga H. asked: When are the flu shots available for the Wiesbaden community? Other communities (for example, Vicenza) started Sept. 15 to give flu shots from their health clinics, and we haven't heard anything yet for Wiesbaden.

Response: If you are not an

active duty military member, there are two ways to get a flu shot this year, Elga. First, see if you can make it to any of the vaccination events in our community listed below.

If you are unable to make it to those events, you can come to the walk-in hours that start Tuesday, Oct. 16 and are on Tuesdays 3-6 p.m. and Fridays 9 a.m. to noon at the Wiesbaden Health Clinic. Be aware that children under the age of 3 must be vaccinated at the clinic. Also, all active duty military members will receive their flu vaccines at their units scheduled vaccination event or at the Soldier Medical Readiness Center.

Shots will be available as follows: Thursday, Oct. 11, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Power Zone at Mainz-Kastel Storage Station; Saturday, Oct. 13, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the commissary; Tuesday, Oct. 16, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Tony Bass Fitness Center; Thursday, Oct. 18, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Taunus Theater; Saturday, Oct. 20 from 9 a.m.

More on flu shots

Nicole V. wants to know: How old does a child have to be to get vaccinated against the flu? Can my 8-month-old daughter get a flu shot?

Response: Lt. Col. Xiomara Frey from the Wiesbaden Health Clinic tells me that in general, people 6 months and older can receive the flu vaccine. There are, however, specific age recommendations for the type of flu vaccine.

The live intranasal vaccine, or FluMist, is recommended for healthy people 2 through 49 years of age, and the inactivated ― injectable ― flu

vaccine is recommended for people 6 months and older.

So yes, your daughter can be vaccinated.

Looking for piano lessons

Mia S. wants to know: Does anybody know if there are piano lessons available for children on post?

Response: There are piano lessons available for children through SKIES Unlimited, but there is a waiting list. To get on the waiting list, you should stop by Parent Central Services at Building 1215, on Clay Kaserne (near the South Gate across from Arts and Crafts). Meanwhile, anyone interested in becoming a SKIES Unlimited instructor ― to provide piano lessons or teach another skill ― should contact the program for more information at (0611) 4080269 or visit the www.armygermany.com website and click on SKIES Unlimited under the Child, Youth and School Services tab near the top of the page.

Stop, think and connect at technology showcase

The 5th Signal Command is hosting an array of activities surrounding National Cyber Awareness Month this October, and as part of this initiative, Clay Kaserne will be hosting their own Cyber Awareness Week.

The Cyber Technology Showcase will be taking place at the Tony Bass Fitness Center Wednesday, October 10 from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. and Thursday, Oct. 11 from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. and is free and open to all personnel.

This event gives the organizations and units supporting U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden and 5th Signal Command’s missions an opportunity to evaluate the latest emerging cyber-related technologies, network with industry experts, and share ideas and future goals. Showcase

attendees will also be able to participate in educational sessions and demonstrations.

5th Signal Command is supporting the National Cyber Security Alliance's initiative to raise awareness to make sure our online lives are kept secure and safe. The Internet is a shared resource and securing it is Our Shared Responsibility, the theme for 2012 National Cyber Security Awareness Month.

Brig. Gen. Bruce T. Crawford, 5th Signal commander, said, “If we have the most cutting edge technology, it does us no good if we don't have cutting edge, well-trained and educated people

behind it all.”

Taking time out of our busy schedules to focus on the aspect of Cyber during the month of October by participating in the Cyber Showcase affords us the opportunity to make a positive step towards increasing our education.

The education can range from sitting down with our children and raising their awareness about bullying or taking measures to protect our personnel identification information while using the internet, we all have a “shared responsibility.”

Cyber security begins with Stop, Think, Connect. These three simple

Continued from page 1 wrong … We can’t figure this out based on assignment, or rank or race or deployment. We have to reach everyone.”

Benson encouraged Soldiers who think another person might be suicidal to ask, “Are you thinking about hurting yourself?”

“When your situational awareness is telling you that something is not right, you’re probably right,” Benson said.

Asking the question is not putting the idea in the person’s head, Benson said. “It gives them the chance to say it out loud, which may be exactly what they need to do.”

It is important, however, not to ask the question in a leading way, Benson said. For instance, don’t say, “You’re doing OK, right?”

The key is to ask the question seriously in an environment where the person can answer honestly, Benson said. He did not rule out bars, but suggested talking to someone away from the crowd, where the person can be honest.

Soldiers should program at least one crisis hotline number into their cell phones, as well as the number to the chaplains’ office ― even if they think they’ll never need it, Benson said.

Benson shared with the audience one of his main reasons for becoming active in suicide prevention efforts. His uncle, a veteran, com-

mitted suicide, as well as his uncle’s son, who was born at Walter Reed Medical Center and left behind two children and a wife.

Benson said he sometimes thinks his cousin committed suicide partly because his father had made it seem an acceptable way out, and he hopes that kind of normalization never happens in the military.

“People might say that Sgt. Jones was a stud ― a real warrior ― always cool when the (stuff) hit the fan. If he couldn’t make it through, if suicide was the answer for him, then it certainly should be OK for me,” Benson said.

The truth is most Soldiers reach out, find support and get better, Benson said.

“If you’re injured physically, you throw yourself into rehab to get better and get back into the fight,” Benson said. “Why would mental pain be any different? More important, why should it be any easier?

“Think of all the phrases you dwell on, ‘Pain is weakness leaving your body.’ ‘No one drowned in their own sweat.’ They all apply here. It takes hard work and some pain, but you get through it, stronger, more resilient, a better Soldier.

And you’re not alone in this battle.”

U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden Command Sgt. Maj. Sa’eed Mustafa opened the morning’s second speaking event by talking about his

personal experiences with suicide in the military.

After working extremely hard to become a squad leader as a young Soldier, Mustafa said a couple of weeks into the job, a Soldier in his squad killed himself. “Stunning. 28 years in the Army and I never forgot that. 28 years in the Army and I still ask myself, ‘What could I have done to prevent that?’” Mustafa said.

Years later, someone told him a former fellow Army Soldier who had been a close friend of his had committed suicide. “He was sergeant shock, and I was sergeant rock,” Mustafa said, describing how close their friendship had been.

His friend left the Army, however, and over the years they fell out of touch, Mustafa said.

“I ask myself every day, ‘Why didn’t I call him?’ ‘Why did I let us get out of touch?’ ‘What could I have done to prevent it? We were so close. I know I could have done something,’” Mustafa said.

Wiesbaden’s suicide help line is mil 337-5520 or civ (0611) 7055520. For the chaplain’s office, call mil 335-5171 or civ (0611) 4080-171. After hours, call mil 337-5096 or civ (0611) 705-5096 for the on-call chaplain.

U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden Command Sgt. Maj. Sa’eed Mustafa talks to Wiesbaden Middle School students about 9/11 during a commemorative event at the school on Sept. 11. Photo right: Members of the Wiesbaden-Nassau Harley Owners Group rally on Clay Kaserne — an 11-year tradition to remember the fallen from Sept. 11, 2001, and those still serving around the globe in harm’s way to protect freedom.

Community remembers 9/11 Story and photos by Karl Weisel

U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden Public Affairs Office

Sept. 11, 2012, started with an auditorium full of Wiesbaden Middle School students commemorating Patriot Day/ National Day of Service and Remembrance and concluded with a rain-drenched motorcycle rally to Veterans Park on Clay Kaserne.

The common theme for the military community youths and German-American bikers was remembering those killed on 9/11 and those still serving in harm’s way to help make the world a safer place for everyone.

“Today is a solemn occasion where we memorialize the men and women who lost their lives on Sept. 11, 2001,” said Dr. Susan Hargis, Wiesbaden Middle School principal.

As music teacher Annette Benton led the middle school band through a series of patriotic songs, guest speaker U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden Command Sgt. Maj. Sa’eed Mustafa talked about his recollections of 9/11 and its impact on a generation of men and women in uniform. Telling the students the 11th anniversary of 9/11 was a day to “remember, pay respect and celebrate,” Mustafa described how he had just finished physical training in Fort Carson, Colo., when he got

the news of the terrorist attack on his home state of New York.

“That day it was sunny and it was bright and it seemed like a normal day,” Mustafa told his young listeners, adding that he had only recently welcomed a daughter into the world (now a member of the Wiesbaden Middle School band). “But then a phone call came in from the platoon sergeant. … He said ‘you have to go and turn on the TV.’” Mustafa said he, like the rest of the world that day, stood in horror as he watched thousands of people being killed in a terrorist attack on the Twin Towers and the Pentagon.

Mustafa told the youths that for him, a native of Highland, N.Y., and someone who visited the World Trade Center as an eighth-grader, watching the destruction was especially hard.

“The World Trade Center meant a lot to me. Whenever I went I went home to New York, I always felt like I was home when I looked over and saw the towers. Now I’m in front of the television and the World Trade Center is on fire.

“As we were watching, we saw a second plane fly into the second tower. … I turned to my Soldiers and said, ‘this is no accident – get ready to go to war.’

“Eleven years later and what we’ve seen is our country has been at war to defend freedom,” Mustafa said. “How many of

On this day you are here free to learn, to go about your daily lives thanks to the sacrifices of so many people.

“We must reflect on those things, but we must also celebrate,” he said, charging the students to learn everything they can and to be the best they can be.

As many people were settling down to an evening meal at home that evening, members of the Wiesbaden-Nassau Harley Owners Group were headed through a driving rain to Wiesbaden’s Clay Kaserne. It was the 11th year since 2001 that the Members of the Wiesbaden-Nassau Harley Owners Group place German-American club flowers and a memorial candle at the base of the memorial in had commemorated 9/11 Veterans Park on Clay Kaserne Sept. 11 to commemorate those with the motorcycle rally. who were killed during the attacks in 2001.

Sports and leisure Closer training options for footballers

By Shirani Tisdale

Special to the Herald Union

No longer will local, developing young soccer players have to drive away to Heidelberg and Kaiserslautern to get specialized training and skill development opportunities.

But as Heidelberg prepares to close, the United States Youth Soccer program has put into place a transition plan to establish a joint program between Wiesbaden and Heidelberg.

In the past, players who wanted to participate in the program had to drive away to train with a team.

The program is designed to offer serious players a chance to play the game at a more advanced level.

“This is not a group for youth that are just looking for something to do,” said Paul Guelle, Heidelberg/Wiesbaden Select U19 Boys coach who said the goal of USYS is to identify American soccer players and provide the tools and opportunities for them to develop into the player they want to become.

The program operates year round and usually involves two Sunday training sessions a month for district play. Tournaments between the districts, exhibition matches and regional camps promote regular competition. Once on the district team, qualified players may also be selected for advanced competition.

“If you’re living in Germany and playing (Department of Defense Education Activity) high school soccer, colleges in the States rarely have an opportunity to see you,” said Guelle.

Hunting instruction

Students in the Outdoor Recreation German Hunting Course engage stationary targets with the revolver and pistol in August. Harold Toft, instructor, and Al Klaver, safety officer, supervise.

Wahoos seek coach

Photo by Steve Kulmala

Local youths participate in the U.S. Youth Soccer program tryouts Sept. 16 at Mainz-Kastel Storage Station.

“Through some of the connections made through organizations like USYS it is possible to increase the opportunity for college exposure.”

Several players have advanced as a result of the program. In the spring, two players from the program were selected to the USYS Region I ‘95 team; placing them among the top players in their age group in the USA. In July, two Heidelberg players took part in the Surf Cup college showcase hosted in San Diego, California.

Rebecca Kuhn, current Heidelberg/Wiesbaden club secretary, said, “I’m thrilled to be able to invite more Wiesbaden families to the program without having to provide a travel disclaimer.”

More than 30 players between the ages of 6 and 19 showed up for the tryouts held on Sept. 16 at Mainz-Kastel, Wiesbaden. With the 34 that tried out in Heidelberg the previous weekend, the year is off to a strong start coaches said.

The coaches and volunteers

put the ODP hopefuls through various skill exercises to test their levels. Many trainers in the organization have played or currently play on a professional team in Germany. Some played college soccer in the United Sates and all have had or will have professional training in coaching.

This ranges from E to C licenses and includes National Soccer Coaches Association of America diplomas and USYS modules.

According to Heidelberg/Wiesbaden Select President, John Little, the best part about the coaches is their “love of the game and their willingness to share it with the youth.”

Tryouts may be over but coaches will still consider interested players if you contact the organization directly.

The program is also seeking more trained coaches from the Wiesbaden area as well as involvement from parents.

Contact Kuhn at rebeccackuhn@yahoo.com or read more about the program at http:// usyouthsoccereurope-odp.com/ exec.php.

The Wiesbaden Wahoos swim team seeks an energetic, motivated and skilled developmental swim coach. The Wahoos, ages 6-19, compete against other teams in the European Forces Swim League. Coach applicants must be 21 or older and have competitive swim coaching experience or equivalent as a swimming instructor, volunteer coach/instructor or swimmer. Compensation is possible, subject to negotiation and commensurate with experience. If interested submit a letter of application and resume with references to the Wiesbaden Swimmers’ Parents Association at swimwahoos@ yahoo.com.

For good health, eat a variety of fruits and vegetables

By Robyn Brown

U.S. Army Public Health Command

As the warm weather slowly fades away, we all think about how to keep the healthy feeling of summer a little longer.

Cooler weather and shorter days can take a toll on our immune system.

Research shows that one way to stay strong is to continue to enjoy plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. September is “National Fruits and Veggies — More Matters” month.

This is a great time to make the transition from summer’s fresh peaches and blueberries to the delicious pears, plums and grapes of the fall.

Orange fruits and vegetables are a particularly tasty way to boost the immune system all year long. Delicious fall favorites include sweet potatoes, butternut squash or pumpkin.

Orange foods contain the antioxidants beta-carotene, a precursor to vitamin A, as well as vitamin E. These vitamins work alongside vitamin C to improve the immune system’s ability to protect against viral infections and to fight off colds and flu.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends eating a variety of colorful fruits and veggies every day in order to promote good health, and says that almost everyone could benefit from including more of these tasty choices in

Brain Teaser WhAt needS to be Fixed?

bAll in A bucket

One morning as Paul was getting his newspaper, he noticed on his new house something that needed to be fixed. Heading over to the hardware store, he spoke to the manager, describing his problem. The manager said, “I know just what you need”. He led Paul down some aisles and stopped in front of some bins. Digging down into some of the bins, he set something up on the shelf. “I saw your house when it was built”, the manager said. “Here’s all that you’ll need and how much it’ll cost... five will be 15 cents while fifty will be 30 cents, 250 will be 45 cents, while 2507 will only cost you 60 cents. One lady, about 20 blocks from your house, bought 30247 and only paid 75 cents! These are black, but they also come in gold and silver.” What was the manager selling?

If I were in Hawaii and dropped a bowling ball in a bucket of water which is 45 degrees F, and dropped another ball of the same weight, mass, and size in a bucket at 30 degrees F, dropping them at the same time, which ball would hit the bottom of the bucket first? Same question, but the location is in Canada?

Answer: Both questions, same answer: the ball in the bucket of 45 degree F water hits the bottom of the bucket first. The 30 degree F water is frozen, and the ball would stop when it hit the ice.

Answer: House numbers. Each digit costs 15 cents.
