Condor Crest exercise tests 21 SW resiliency By Robb Lingley 21st Space Wing Public Affairs

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — Several exercises took place across the 21st Space Wing at Peterson Air Force Base, Colorado, for Condor Crest, May 14 — 17, 2018. Condor Crest is conducted twice a year to keep Airmen alert for any situation. During this exercise, many simulated scenarios were engaged. Airman performance was tested as they laid out water barriers, handled a car bomb in the dorms, engaged in an active shooter scenario and took action when a C-130 Hercules crashed near the flight line. To start Condor Crest, Airmen placed water barriers around Peterson AFB to provide protection after a simulated intelligence threat of a suspicious vehicle at the U.S. Air Force Academy, May 14 was delivered. Only the north gate didn’t have water barriers due to protective devices already in place. “In the interest of water conservation we made the call not to fill all the barriers,” said Senior Master Sgt. James Onder, 21st Civil Engineer Squadron operations flight superintendent. “We filled every fifth barrier to give us an estimate on how long it would take us to fill them.” Onder said it would take 49,000 gallons of water to fill all 265 barriers, costing the 21 SW $225, or 83 cents per barrier. The following morning, a simulated car bomb See Resiliency page 13

U.S. AIR FORCE Academy, Colo. — Graduating cadets at the U.S. Air Force Academy take their seats just before the Class of 2018 Graduation Ceremony, May 23, 2018, in Falcon Stadium. Nearly 1,000 senior cadets received their commissions at second lieutenants during the ceremony.

U.S. AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. — Secretary of Defense James Mattis told nearly 1,000 graduating cadets to take charge of the Air Force during the Air Force Academy’s Class of 2018 graduation ceremony, May 23. “The warrior ethos and the fierce character that you now inherit as your own character will now have to stand between us and some of the forces that would take our democracy and our liberty away,” Mattis said during the ceremony at Falcon Stadium. Mattis said his expectations for the graduating class are simple. “Always be ready to fight and to win,” he said. “There is no room for complacency as our adversaries will do everything in their power to erode our military’s competitive

edge — and even less room for a sense of cynicism or victimhood.” Mattis said the newly-commissioned officers must use their attitude as their main weapon. “It’s now your responsibility that our adversaries know they should always prefer to talk to our Department of State rather than face the U.S. Air Force,” he said. Lieutenant Gen. Jay Silveria, Academy superintendent, opened the ceremony and thanked the thousands of cadet families and friends in the stands, and the Academy’s faculty and staff for their care and concern for cadets. “They make days like today possible,” he said. “Everyone at the Academy is devoted to developing some of our nation’s most promising young people into the innovative, creative and critical-thinking leaders our Air Force needs them to be.

21ST SPACE WING

COMMANDER’S CORNER 101 days of summer: Have fun, think safety PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — It seems like just yesterday as I perused Facebook, a post caught my attention with “Today’s the 110th day of January!” Yep, with all the snow in April, it felt like Colorado’s winter would never end. Fortunately, the cold weather has finally moved on, and summer will be quickly upon us. Spanning from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day, the 101 days of summer is a great time to enjoy the wonderful outdoors with friends and family. I know my kids are excited to get out of the house and start exploring! My oldest has been begging to climb Pike’s Peak for the past six months. Guess it’s time to get out the hiking shoes and stop using the snow on the mountain as an excuse! So, as kids are now out of school and the adults have emerged from winter’s hibernation, get outside and take full advantage of the warm weather and blue skies! Whether you stay local or are one of the thousands visiting family and friends across the nation, summer is a time to celebrate, take a break, relax, and recharge while playing and having a good time. Unfortunately, summer is also a time of increased

Lt. Col. Matthew Lieber Colorado Springs Regional Command Post injuries and fatalities. Emergency rooms have been known to call summer “trauma season” as they tend to see more incidents from sports, motorcycles, trampolines, and swimming injuries to burns from barbecue grills and lawn mower mishaps. If we focus on what we are doing and think about safety, we can all have fun while accidents are avoided. My past squadron leaders have always encouraged their supervisors to discuss summer safety with their Airmen before they travel on leave or enjoy a long holiday weekend. That’s good advice. You never know

when a short discussion on safety reminders or risk management strategies may just save a life or prevent an injury. For those new to Colorado Springs, a few words of caution. Outdoor activity at 6,035 feet is quite different from sea level. The air is thinner and dryer. The sun is over a mile closer. With every 1,000-foot increase in elevation, research shows the sun’s rays can be 8 — 10 percent stronger. Ouch! So, don’t forget the sunscreen! Stay hydrated. And, avoid the unfashionable lobster look. Everyone deserves to have an absolutely tremendous summer. That includes emergency room workers, too. Let’s give them a break this year. Play hard, play safe. And, if someone asks you to “hold my beer (or soda),” it just may be a good opportunity to step up, be a good Wingman, and give them a gentle safety check. So, let’s all enjoy a well-deserved break in the sunshine! Just please be safe. I for one plan to avoid the barbecue burnt eyebrow and lobster skin looks this summer. How about you?

Explaining TRICARE annual cost increases TRICARE Communications

FALLS CHURCH, Va. — Population growth, aging, and price increases for medical goods and services drive many health care costs in the U.S. In any given year, these price increases are related to rising drug costs, using new medical technology, increasing provider rates or other factors. In response, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, which tracks health care costs for the federal government, estimates spending on health care is expected to grow 5.5 percent each year through 2026. TRICARE is not immune to these drivers.

On Jan. 1, 2018, the Defense Health Agency (DHA) adjusted TRICARE costs. The National Defense Authorization Act of 2017 set some of these rates. Others were based on unique factors, like the annual cost of living adjustment or average costs of covered health care services. TRICARE cost changes vary and may change annually. Near the end of 2017, with the help of several military and veteran service organizations, DHA was able to recalculate and correct costs before Jan. 1, lowering 2018 patient costs for several types of care by $3 to $8. Other costs increased, like the retiree specialty mental health outpatient copayment, which changed from $12 to $30.

As always, TRICARE costs depend on your plan and who you are (for example, whether you are an active duty family member or retiree). To make managing your health costs more predictable and transparent, DHA introduced more copayments under the new TRICARE Select program when using a TRICARE network provider. Copayments are fixed-fees; they let you know the out-of-pocket cost of a covered service before receiving a bill. Visit the TRICARE website to view health plan costs and to download a detailed Costs and Fees Sheet. This is your benefit — take command of your health care by learning about the costs associated with your plan.

Gen. O’Shaughnessy assumes command of NORAD, USNORTHCOM By Master Sgt. John Gordinier NORAD and USNORTHCOM Public Affairs

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — Air Force Gen. Terrence J. O’Shaughnessy assumed command of the North American Aerospace Defense Command and United States Northern Command from Air Force Gen. Lori Robinson during a ceremony held at Peterson Air Force Base today. The change of command was presided over by U.S. Secretary of Defense, Jim Mattis, and Canadian Armed Forces Chief of the Defence Staff, Gen. Jonathan H. Vance. Also in attendance were Canadian Minister of National Defence, Harijit S. Sajjan, and U.S. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Joseph Dunford Jr. Mattis praised Robinson for her command of NORAD and USNORTHCOM and welcomed O’Shaughnessy to his new assignment. “General Robinson, you created and rewarded a climate of trusted teamwork with neighboring countries as well as across two commands,” said Mattis. “General O’Shaughnessy, our nation is counting on you and you have my full confidence in your abilities. Now you have the watch.” Sajjan expressed the importance of NORAD and the partnership between the U.S. and Canada. “We look forward to the next 60 years of NORAD and we know the command will evolve. Threats to North America have changed and we need to change along with it,” said Sajjan. “To be effective in the 21st century we have to continue to work together to modernize NORAD in support of our strategic commands. As part of Canada’s new defense policy, Strong, Secure, Engaged, we are committed to our working partnership. For decades to come we will continue to collaborate in innovative ways to keep North America safe.” O’Shaughnessy said the strength of NORAD and USNORTHCOM comes from the sustained and continuous partnerships with joint, interagency and multinational organizations. “There is no doubt that I am joining a combined team that has safeguarded our nations amidst one of the most diverse and challenging security atmospheres in our history,” said O’Shaughnessy. “Thank you for your selfless service and preservation of our sacred responsibility.” O’Shaughnessy most recently served as the Pacific Air Forces commander, Air Component commander for U.S.

than the defense of our homeland. I’ll never forget the great honor and privilege of this responsibility.” Robinson took command of NORAD and USNORTHCOM in May 2016 and is scheduled to retire after more than 37 years of service. NORAD is a binational command between the U.S. and Canada, charged with the missions of aerospace warning and aerospace control for North America while USNORTHCOM partners to conduct homeland defense, civil support and security cooperation to defend and secure the U.S. and its interests. The two commands have complementary missions and are co-located together on Peterson AFB.

What's In It For You?

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — During the 302nd Airlift Wing’s Wingman Day this year, reservists from 39th Aerial Port Squadron ran in their 4th annual Port Dawg Memorial Run May 6. The 5K run is an event logistics readiness and aerial port Airmen across the Air Force share, including those deployed, to honor and reflect on those in their career field who have passed away. For the members of the 39th APS, the run takes place during the May Unit Training Assembly to coincide with National Defense Transportation Week, which is during the second week of May. “This hits close to home, especially when you’re remembering one of your own,” said Senior Airman Gabriel Toepel, a 39th APS transportation technician who volunteered to help coordinate the run this year. “I was close professionally and personally to someone we lost last year.” Last year, Master Sgt. Kelly Bartholomew, 39th APS, passed away. “I had a lot of respect for him,” said Toepel. “He was one of those NCOs who exemplified the core values of the Air Force. And helping put on this event really gives me a sense of pride and purpose reflecting on not just the port dawgs we’ve lost here, but across the Air Force.” Before kicking off the run, Maj. Emily Barry, the 39th APS commander, reminded the group of nearly 50 runners why they were out there. “This is a time for us to reflect on those we’ve lost,” she said. Reservists part of an aerial port squadron, sometimes called “port dawgs,” provide support to ramp and cargo operations, passenger services, load planning, special handling and manning air terminal operations centers.

A loadmaster’s journey to MAFFS By Staff Sgt. Frank Casciotta 302nd Airlift Wing Public Affairs

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — Annie had just found a decent vantage point to get a better look at the infamous Black Forest fire as it was burning near her hometown of Colorado Springs, Colorado, in 2013 when she spotted an aircraft dropping a line of bright orange retardant on the outskirts of the wildfire. At the time, she had no idea that she would be flying as part of the crew in one of those aircraft herself one day. “I just remember thinking, ‘they are doing that firefighting mission. That has to be the coolest job ever,’” said Staff Sgt. Annie Lepillez, one of the 731st Airlift Squadron’s newest Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System-qualified loadmasters. Joining the Air Force Reserve was the furthest thing from Lepillez’s mind when she graduated from college in 2011 with a degree in aviation. Her plan was to be an air traffic controller with the Federal Aviation Administration, but that was not to be. “Unfortunately, I graduated while there were budget cuts that resulted in a three-year hiring freeze,” she said. She ended up working odd jobs until having a conversation with her brother-in-law, who at the time, was an Air Force C-130 Hercules aircraft pilot. “He said, ‘if you’re going to look into enlisting I recommend anything that will bring you close to an airplane,”’ said Lepillez. Taking his advice, she met with a recruiter who set up a meeting with Reserve loadmasters at the 302nd Airlift Wing, here. While meeting with the loadmasters, she connected the dots and realized these were the people dropping retardant from the C-130 during the fire she saw. “I thought to myself, ‘you’re kidding me, that’s something you can do?’” she said. About four years and more than 900 flying hours later as a C-130 loadmaster, Lepillez is now amongst those qualified to fly on MAFFS missions after the annual MAFFS recertification training sponsored by the U.S.D.A Forest Service held at McClellan Reload Base in Sacramento, California, April 22 through 27.

MCCLELLAN RELOAD BASE, Calif. — Staff Sgt. Annie Lepillez, a 731st Airlift Squadron loadmaster, poses for a photo before a training mission during the annual wildland firefighting training and certification sponsored by the U.S.Department of Agriculture Forest Service at McClellan Reload Base, Calif., April 26, 2018. Lepillez is one of the 302nd Airlift Wing’s newest MAFFS-certified loadmasters. Lepillez was on her second MAFFS training sortie of the day when the pilot let the aircrew know they were headed back to base. Her instructor walked over, fist-bumped her and handed her their squadron’s MAFFS patch. She completed her certification. “That was such an awesome moment,” said Lepillez, who was named the Air Force Reserve Command 2016 Enlisted Aircrew Member of the Year. “I’m so grateful just to be able to take part in a mission like this.” Becoming a MAFFS-certified loadmaster is strictly voluntary. Before loadmasters are considered for the position, they must have at least 750 flying hours and be evaluated by the entire aircrew, which includes a pilot, co-pilot, navigator, flight engineer and other loadmasters already MAFFS-qualified. “MAFFS loadmasters are our most expe-

rienced and highly qualified,” said Master Sgt. Thomas Freeman, a 731st AS evaluator loadmaster and Lepillez’s MAFFS instructor. Freeman, who flew missions during the Black Forest fire, has been flying MAFFS missions since 1991 and has helped train over 100 loadmasters on MAFFS throughout his career. “It’s very challenging. The learning curve is more like a 90 degree angle than a curve,” said Freeman. Typically, loadmasters are responsible for loading, securing and escorting cargo and passengers before and during flight. They calculate proper weight distribution for cargo and oversee the safety of any passengers. On a MAFFS mission they fill that same role in addition to and making various adjustments to the MAFFS unit during flight and ensuring it releases retardant as needed. They are

also in charge of overseeing the refilling the MAFFS unit. “The co-pilot is actually the one who presses the button to drop the retardant,” Lepillez said. “Our job is to make sure everything else is good to go as far as having proper air compression, making sure the hydraulics are functioning and using the control panel to set the amount of coverage we will drop on the pass. We also make sure the emergency dump system is ready as well just in case something malfunctions.” Lepillez is a traditional reservist and when she’s not serving her country at the 302nd AW, she’s busy managing her own small business in Colorado Springs selling and making fresh crepes. She says her inspiration for the business comes from having spent time in France while growing and making crepes on Sunday mornings with her family.

Alcohol’s insidious nature: Getting help empowers your career By Shireen Bedi Air Force Surgeon General Public Affairs

FALLS CHURCH, Va. — Alcohol abuse has a deceptively gradual onset that can slowly affect family, friends and work. Knowing the signs and getting help early are key to beating alcohol abuse. “The most difficult thing about alcohol use disorders is how insidious it is,” said Lt. Col. Mikel Merritt, Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention and Treatment branch chief for the Air Force Medical Operations Agency. “There is no distinct point where it transforms from social drinking to something that is problematic.” Many individuals find it difficult to tell when alcohol takes a central role in their life and becomes alcohol abuse. According to Merritt, this could be partially due to how the brain rewires itself as alcohol use disorders progress. “Alcohol does a lot to a person’s brain, transforming it so that an individual’s main source of pleasure is alcohol,” said Merritt. “Other things do not provide the individual with ‘neuronal satisfaction’ like alcohol would. As a result, they end up craving it.” Due to the gradual onset and its ability to change brain function, the Air Force offers the ADAPT program to help Airmen overcome alcohol abuse. The program provides a thorough assessment and identifies effective treatments and tools that have been proven to help people beat an alcohol use disorder. “At ADAPT, we focus on their thoughts and behaviors that make alcohol use and

FALLS CHURCH, Va. — The Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention and Treatment program ensures Airmen are aware of the limitations and consequences of alcohol abuse and its impact on their Air Force career. At each installation, the ADAPT program offers awareness outreach, assessment, and counseling. misuse more likely,” said Merritt. “This is called cognitive behavioral treatment for alcohol use disorder.” ADAPT works with Airmen to address many of the common challenges they may face as they seek treatment, the potential changes in how to interact with their peer group, and how to overcome those challenges as they seek treatment. “We work with Airmen on individual techniques as well as their attitudes surrounding

alcohol,” said Merritt. “Techniques can be as simple as keeping a soda or glass of water in your hand. This makes it less likely that people will offer them a drink.” There are signs that can help you tell if you or someone you know might be battling with alcohol abuse. One common sign is when individuals neglect some of their responsibilities due to alcohol use. “If you’re concerned, start paying attention to how much of a role alcohol plays in your

life,” said Merritt. “Do you do things that don’t involve alcohol? Do you find that they are less pleasurable than doing things that do involve alcohol?” Those who think need help with alcohol abuse are encouraged to reach out to ADAPT services, and should not worry about how using ADAPT services would affect their Air Force career. Capt. Daniel Gibson, ADAPT program manager at Fairchild Air Force Base, Washington, works to break down barriers to ADAPT and dispel misconceptions some Airmen have about the program. “Some Airmen are scared of ADAPT because there is a perception that it is going to ruin their career and they are going to be kicked out,” said Gibson. “We are trying to break down those barriers. The reality is that Airmen who seek help through ADAPT, no matter how severe their situation, find that it actually strengthens and empowers their career.” Airmen can access the ADAPT program through a number of ways. Most ADAPT clinics are located within the mental health clinic. Airmen can also talk to their primary care manager or any of the other helping agencies on base to get connected with ADAPT. “Anyone who wears a military uniform bears responsibilities on their shoulders that are very different than anything in civilian life,” said Gibson. “Having a program like ADAPT within the military that understands those unique dynamics to provide treatment, allows for a more meaningful form of support for out Airmen.”

professionals tirelessly dedicate their time, their passion and their talents to ensure that this next generation of officers is ready to lead on day one, and to go out into our Air Force and make it their own.” Silveria told the new officers to remember their commencement. “It’s the culmination of four years of teamwork, intellectual growth, character development and just plain hard work,” he said. Two graduates attributed their success to the teamwork they shared with their peers. “My classmates were everything,” said 2nd Lt. Sam Eckholm. “I can’t imagine getting to this point without them.” Second Lt. Sarah Witzgall said receiving her commission was a “dream come true.” “It’s something I’ve wanted for a very long time — it’s surreal,” she said. “Team work is crucial. It’s 100 percent of everything here.”

pulled up on the front lawn of building 1154 and detonated, caving in the front face of the unoccupied dorm. “This exercise was designed for the 21 CES fire department to assess a structural fire and catastrophic damage to a facility,” said Onder. Later, during the exercise, the 21st Explosive Ordnance Disposal Flight deployed its remote controlled robot to ensure the car bomb at the scene was free of additional explosives. Wednesday, May 16, was the most active day of Condor Crest. The morning started with a simulated active shooter taking casualties and a hostage at the 21st Mission Support Group building. Colorado Springs Special Weapons and Tactics was called in to take the lead. They surrounded the active shooter on the second floor, with help from 21st Security Forces, and captured him after a standoff. Later that night, in another exercise, a simulated bird strike caught the second engine of a C-130 Hercules while on approach, causing it to crash just off the Peterson AFB flight line. This resulted in 16 fatalities. The exercise was coordinated by Craig Powell, 21 CES assistant chief for training; the 21 SW, the city of Colorado Springs, the Colorado Springs airport, the Federal Aviation Administration, American Medical Response, the Cimarron Hills Fire Department, and the 302nd Airlift Wing. The following morning, May 17, Condor Crest concluded with a search and recovery team forming at daybreak to search for human remains and C-130 parts. Airmen had to communicate with each other successfully while walking on the crash scene step by step. When anything was found it was bagged and tagged for removal from the scene.
