SCHRIEVER AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — More than 250 Airmen celebrated the holiday season with food, prizes and dancing during the 50th Space Wing’s annual holiday party in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Dec. 7.

The party, themed “Night out at the North Pole,” included a surprise visit from Santa

Claus, holiday themed décor, photo station, dance floor and D.J. Airman 1st Class Damon Survine, 50th Contracting Squadron contracting specialist, said the positive atmosphere and festivities was a joyful start to the holiday season.

“This probably has the greatest vibe of any military event I’ve ever been to,” Survine said. “Everyone’s laid back. I especially loved

it when Santa Claus came through — shout out to him.”

Senior Master Sgt. Michael Rozneck, 50th Operations Support Squadron superintendent, his first time attending the event, shared this sentiment.

Jay Raymond, Air Force Space Command commander, selected her for a Senior Leader Enlisted Commissioning Program-Active Duty Scholarship, Nov. 15, 2018. The program allows senior leaders to hand-select enlisted members to attend Officer Training School and earn a commission as an Air Force officer.

By 50th Space Wing Public Affairs SCHRIEVER AIR FORCE BASE, Colo.

— Staff Sgt. Heeyeun Joo, 50th Contracting Squadron contract administrator, spent a full week getting ready to conduct a video teleconference briefing for Gen. Jay Raymond, Air Force Space Command commander, Nov. 15.

As a junior non-commissioned officer, the

task of briefing the general on behalf of her squadron was a daunting endeavor. She didn’t want anything to go wrong, no surprises.

However, despite all her preparation, there was one thing she couldn’t see coming.

“I was about three slides in when General Raymond notified me that I was his selection for the Senior Leader Enlisted Commissioning

Program-Active Duty Scholarship,” Joo said. “I was overjoyed and in complete shock. I could not hold back my tears. When he informed me I was his pick, I was grateful beyond words and in disbelief that I could be granted such a huge honor.”

SCHRIEVER AIR FORCE BASE, Colo.

— The holiday season provides us with an opportunity to reflect on many things, including the accomplishments of the past year and the opportunities the New Year will bring. Each of us should take time CSMNG to do an end of year self-assessment to determine how we’ve done and to look for ways to do even better in the coming year.

As professional active, reserve or civilian Airmen, our self-assessment should include a consideration of how well we’ve done living up to the Air Force core values of integrity first, service before self and excellence in all we do.

Are we doing all we can to live up to these core values? Are we encouraging those around us to do the same? All of us must work together to build and maintain the highest quality Air Force we all need and the American people deserve.

Adhering to these core values serves us well in both our professional and personal lives. “Integrity…is the willingness to do what is right even when no one is looking.

It is the moral compass, the inner voice; the voice of self–control; the basis for the trust that is essential in today’s military.”

(Air Force Instruction 1-1) Integrity defines our fundamental charCOLORADO SPRINGS MILITARY NEWSPAPER GROUP

Ron Gevry 50th Space Wing Director of Staff

acter. It lets our fellow Airmen and wingmen know they can count on us during the most trying and demanding times.

“Integrity is the single most important part of character. It makes Airmen who they are and what they stand for, and is as much a part of their professional reputation as their ability to fly or fix jets and satellites, operate a computer network, repair a runway or defend an airbase.

Airmen must be professional, both in and out of uniform. Integrity is not a suit

that can be taken off at night or on the weekend or worn only when it is important to look good. Instead, it is the time we least expect to be tested when possessing integrity is critical. People are watching us, not to see us fail, but to see us live up to their expectations. Anything less risks putting the heritage and reputation of the Air Force in peril.” (AF Core Doctrine Vol. 2) The holiday season of giving and caring reminds us of the importance of service before self. ”Service before self tells us that professional duties take precedence over personal desires.” (AFI 1-1) It requires each of us to look beyond ourselves to see the greater good, whether it be within larger Air Force or Department of Defense missions or the needs of our family, friends or community.

“Service before self does not mean service before family. Airmen have a duty to the service and an equally strong duty to their families. The difference is there are times when service to the nation requires subordinating the needs of the family.

Airmen understand they have a duty to fulfill the unit’s mission. This includes performing to the best of one’s abilities the See Reflections page 6

Children’s holiday party brings cheer to Schriever

Santa Claus high-five’s a child during the Annual Children’s Holiday Festival Winter Extravaganza at the fitness center at Schriever Air Force Base, Colorado, Dec. 1, 2018. More than 500 children and their families attended the event designed to bring some holiday cheer to Schriever members.

By 2nd Lt. Idali Beltre Acevedo 50th Space Wing public affairs

SCHRIEVER AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — Approximately 500 children attended the Annual Children’s Holiday Festival Winter Extravaganza at the fitness center at Schriever Air Force Base, Colorado, Dec. 1.

Members of the 50th Force Support Squadron organized the event with the help of more than 100 volunteers from across the base.

Children earned prizes playing games and met with Mr. and Mrs. Claus.

The event was divided between the fitness center, the indoor running track and a tent for refreshments.

Master Sgt. Janelle Amador, 50th FSS unit career assistance advisor, volunteered her time for this year’s event.

“I think we are taking care of our Airmen and families with this event by providing a safe environment in order to celebrate the holidays,” she said.

“There’s also food, there’s games, there’s free giveaways as well as prizes; so it’s pretty much everything all encompassed into one giant event that the (children) look forward to every single year.”

“Showing your family where you work and what you do just kind of increases morale.”

— Seth Cannello, 50th FSS fitness center director Parents brought their children to the event for many reasons.

“I just wanted my daughter to come out and have fun,” said Staff Sgt. Brandon Council, 50th Contracting Squadron Simplified Acquisition of Base Engineering Requirements team lead. “I really think events like these help bring us all together and have fun. We all have different jobs but this gives us a chance to hang out and realize that we are all on one team.”

Siblings Taryn, 12, and Kian, 9, both agreed they enjoyed the event and playing their favorite games.

Taryn enjoyed playing igloo-hockey.

“At school I used to play hockey and I thought it was really fun,” she said.

Kian on the other hand, enjoyed shooting hoops.

The Schriever AFB community organizes several events like this every year.

“We do four (seasonal) events every year. They really give Airmen an opportunity to come and hang out with their family, play some fun games, eat some free food and just enjoy being together. I think an event like this is huge for morale,” said Col. Brian Kehl, 50th Mission Support Group commander.

For years, the fitness center has been the main venue for these events, its staff supporting each and every one of them.

“I think it’s important to have events outside of your normal work area, especially events that include family members,” said Seth Cannello, 50th FSS fitness center director. “Showing your family where you work and what you do just kind of increases morale.”

FSS’s next event is the Archery Tag Competition scheduled for Dec. 14 at the fitness center.

Events like these are designed to meet the 50th SW’s priority of taking care of Airmen and their families always.

STPSat-5 successfully launched from Vandenberg AFB

By Space and Missile Center Public Affairs LOS ANGELES AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. — The Air Force and its mission partners successfully launched Space Test Program Satellite 5, or STPSat-5, into orbit via Spaceflight Industries’ fully dedicated smallsat rideshare mission aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 launch vehicle on Dec. 3 from Space Launch Complex 4E, Vandenberg Air Force Base, California, at 10:34 a.m. PST. “I’m elated with today’s successful launch,” said Col. Timothy Sejba, director of the Space and Missile Systems Center’s Advanced Systems and Development Directorate. “STPSat-5 demonstrates the value of commercially-procured mission management and launch services for the Air Force. It also highlights the benefit of forging new partnerships with commercial space companies under SMC 2.0. This mission would not be possible without the combined dedication of our government and industry partners, including NASA, Spaceflight Industries and Sierra Nevada Corporation. We look forward to evaluating STPSat-5’s performance on-orbit over the next year.”

Air Force Space Command’s Space and Missile Systems Center, located at Los Angeles AFB, is the Air Force’s center of acquisition excellence for acquiring and developing military space systems. Its portfolio includes the development of advanced space and launch capability and systems, GPS, military satellite communications, defense meteorological satellites, space launch and range systems, satellite control networks, space-based infrared systems and space situational awareness capabilities.

Schriever reminds Airmen of ski, snowboard safety

Program From page 1 The program allows senior leaders across the Air Force to hand-select enlisted members to attend Officer Training School and earn a commission as an Air Force officer.

Airmen are able to complete their degrees while remaining on active duty with the oversight of an ROTC detachment for administrative purposes.

Joo’s mentor, 2nd Lt. Michael Kilbourn, 50th CONS plans and programs flight commander, assisted Joo with her application.

“In my view, getting selected for this program is incredibly remarkable,” Kilbourn said. “All commissioning programs are highly competitive, but this takes the competition to another level. Given the one-to-one selection ratio, there is a lesser chance to be selected than some of the other programs that might have a larger number of slots allocated or a small pool of applicants.”

“Leading by example is exactly what I aspire to do every single day.”

— Staff Sgt. Heeyeun Joo, 50th Contracting Squadron contract administrator

For Joo, the opportunity to commission fulfills an Air Force dream.

“Commissioning was a goal I’ve had since I was an Airman 1st Class, but was often put on hold so that I could focus on excelling at immediate tasks/duties,” she said.

“Ultimately, I decided to put in for the program because I knew I would regret not taking the chance.”

While the selection came a surprise to Joo, it was no shock to her supervisor, Master Sgt. Jason Kieffer, 50th CONS base infrastructure flight chief.

“Joo is the type of Airman every supervisor wants,” he said “I’ve been doing this for a long time and the quality work she puts out is light years ahead of her peers. Her drive is what separates her from others. She has goals, big and small and every step she takes is with them in mind.”

Even though Joo will be moving on from the enlisted ranks, she hopes she won’t have to move on from her contracting family.

“We were told to pick three desired Air Force Specialty Codes and my number one was 64PX, contracting,” she said. “This is the job I am hoping to get as an officer.”

A contracting officer himself, Kilbourn knows full well Joo is up to the task.

“Joo epitomizes Airmanship,” he said. “She serves selflessly, is committed to excellence in that she gives her absolute best always, and is highly credible. She sets a high bar in her conduct and is a person we should strive to emulate.”

Joo, who moved from South Korea to the U.S. when she was a child, said she joined the Air Force because she felt a need for purpose and ability to make change. She feels commissioning amplifies both objectives.

“Being selected for this program will allow me to affect change from a broader scope and be an inspiration to others,” she said. “Leading by example is exactly what I aspire to do every single day. When your work ethic and actions speak for you, there is nothing you can say that can better prove your willingness to sacrifice for others and the Air Force.”

Kieffer and Joo both pointed to Kilbourn as the driving force behind getting her package submitted to higher headquarters. However, for Kilbourn, seeing Airmen like Joo succeed makes it all worthwhile.

“The most rewarding part of helping Airmen with these programs is watching them identify milestones, and then being blown away when they develop and execute a plan to reach the finish line,” he said. “My hope is that an Airman putting together an application to commission becomes a microcosm for tackling any lofty goal they may have once thought was improbable.”

Mathematician inducted into Space and Missiles Pioneers Hall of Fame

By Air Force Space Command Public Affairs

U.S. Air Force photo by Adrian Cadiz

Air Force Space Command Vice Commander Lt. Gen. DT Thompson delivers presents Gladys West with an award as she is inducted into the Air Force Space and Missile Pioneers Hall of Fame during a ceremony in her honor at the Pentagon in Washington, D.C., Dec. 6, 2018.

West was among the so-called “Hidden Figures” part of the team who did computing for the U.S. military in the era before electronic systems. The Air Force Space and Missile Pioneers Hall of Fame is one of Air Force’s Space Commands Highest Honors.

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — Lt. Gen. David Thompson, Air Force Space Command vice commander, presented Gladys West with the Air Force Space and Missile Pioneers award for her decades of contributions to the Air Force’s space program. West was unable to attend the formal induction ceremony that took place Aug. 28, where three others joined the elite list of professionals who have greatly impacted the Air Force space program.

West is among a small group of women who did computing for the U.S. military in the era before electronic systems. Hired in 1956 as a mathematician at the U.S. Naval Weapons Laboratory, she participated in a path-breaking, award-winning astronomical study that proved, during the early 1960s, the regularity of Pluto’s motion relative to Neptune. Thereafter, from the mid1970s through the 1980s, using complex algorithms to account for variations in gravitational, tidal, and other forces that distort Earth’s shape, she programmed an IBM 7030 “Stretch” computer to deliver increasingly refined calculations for an extremely accurate geodetic Earth model, a geoid, optimized for what ultimately became the Global Positioning System orbit.

The Air Force Space and Missile Pioneers Award pays tribute to the leaders of the early years of the Air Force space program, as well as the subsequent innovators whose vision and perseverance overcame the obstacles of the unknown, those who transformed the cutting edge of technology into operational systems, and those who dedicated their lives to exploring space in support of our national security concerns.

Celebrate From page 1 years and this was definitely one of the best, I’m very impressed,” Rozneck said.

He welcomed the chance to wear his favorite ugly Christmas sweater.

“I was going to wear a suit but my wife encouraged me to wear my sweater instead,” he laughed. “I thought I might as well have some fun.”

The arrangement of tables encouraged Airmen to engage in conversation with those in other units who they may not have meet personally.

“Morale was high and it was nice that they scattered people around so you weren’t just in your own little clique,” said James Stroman, 50th OSS special security officer. “It’s great to meet everyone else and learn about their squadrons.”

This sense of community was furthered by the abundance of prizes and recreational games, including a cookie eating challenge in which a participant must eat a cookie placed on their forehead without using their hands and a game where Airmen opened gifts using oven mitts.

However, the event was not just about receiving, but giving as well. Various Airmen donated toys, from stuffed animals to board games, for children in need and a $1,000 check was presented to Tom Echelmeyer, an 8 year-old cancer survivor, for the Children’s Hospital Foundation of Colorado.

Senior Master Sgt. Malcolm Summers, 50th Civil Engineer Squadron superintendent and event organizer, said charity was the highlight of the night.

“The donations were at the forefront of what made this night so special,” Summers said.

“The impact we make as servant leaders taking care of others makes a difference in the community and goes a long way.”

He said he enjoyed the chance to provide an avenue of positivity for Schriever Airmen and fulfilling the 50th Space Wing priority of taking care of Airmen and families always.

“There was no shortage of smiles and laughter throughout the night,” Summers said.

“From left to right, there was nothing but people having a good time. Our volunteers did a great job. That’s what this is about — coming together and having a good time for a good cause.”

“We get so busy with work all the time, we tend to put up walls — sometimes without even knowing it,” Rozneck added. “This helps tear down those walls, brings us together and gives us a team feeling.”

Santa Claus pauses for a photo with Senior Master Sgt. Malcolm Summers, 50th Civil Engineer Squadron superintendent, during the 50th Space Wing’s “Night out at the North Pole” holiday party in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Dec. 7, 2018. Summers, one of the event’s organizers, helped create an atmosphere of holiday cheer for Schriever Airmen.

Col. Jennifer Grant, 50th Space Wing commander, presents Tom Echelmeyer, 8, a cancer survivor, and his father Master Sgt. Thomas Echelmeyer, 21st Aerospace Medicine Squadron bioenvironmental engineering craftsman, a check on behalf of the 50th SW for the Children’s Hospital Foundation of Colorado during the 50th SW’s “Night out at the North Pole” holiday party in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Dec. 7, 2018. Aside from the check, event participants donated more than 70 toys to children.

Attendees dance during the 50th Space Wing’s “Night out at the North Pole” holiday party in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Dec. 7, 2018. The event gave Airmen a chance to embrace the holiday spirit and celebrate with games, prizes and other recreational activities.

The power of partnerships is changing lives for a local veteran and a small business owner. A military spouse and daughter of a veteran, Angelina Pecoraro, owner of Mint & Porter Design Company, is a Mt. Carmel client, Pikes Peak Workforce Center client, Hiring Our Heroes Fellowship program grad, and has completed Prep Connect 360 for veterans, transitioning service members and military spouses. Mt. Carmel and PPWFC client Isaac Torres is a veteran, accomplished artist, and a UCCS visual arts/Pikes Peak Community College graphic design student in the final stretch of his degree program. Through Mt. Carmel’s partnership with PPWFC, Isaac is in a paid work study at Mint & Porter.

“This is a phenomenal experience,” said Isaac. “I’m learning from a highly-skilled, well-networked designer, and I’m gaining professional experience in the branding and marketing field. This opportunity has given me confidence that I can be successful in my new career.” Isaac’s work study is also a win for Mint & Porter. “As a small business owner, much of my time is spent with new clients and marketing; Isaac’s talent allows me to balance my focus on those areas of my business,” said Angelina. “He takes feedback to heart and it shows in his work. I’m proud to have Isaac at Mint & Porter. My father was in

the Navy; my husband is in the Army.

I’m proud of Isaac’s service and grateful to help a veteran in a meaningful way.

And, it’s ironic that I’m helping on the employer side of the same work study program that helped me a few years ago.”
