Salute to our Veterans Remembering the history of POW-MIA bracelets

By Lou Reamulto

SPECIAL TO THE CULPEPER TIMES

Those of us who grew up during, were a part of, or witnessed firsthand the Vietnam War Era may remember the POW/MIA bracelet phenomena of the early 1970s. This is a brief history of the bracelets.

In late 1969 a television personality Bob Dornan (who several years later was elected to the US Congress) introduced Carol Bates, Kay Hunter and several other members of Voices In Vital America (VIVA) to three wives of missing pilots who felt the student group could assist them in drawing public attention to the prisoners and missing servicemen in Vietnam.

In May 1970 the Los Angeles based student group VIVA began creating and producing the bracelets with the intention that American POWs in Vietnam not be forgotten. The idea was started by Carol who was the National Chairman of

the POW/MIA Bracelet Campaign for VIVA and her fellow student Kay. Entertainers Bob Hope and Martha Raye also served as honorary co-chairmen.

The bracelets sold for as little as $2.50 or $3.00. They came in gold, silver, stainless steel, colored aluminum, copper, and brass. Each bracelet was engraved with the name, rank, service and loss date of a missing/captured American serviceman during the Vietnam War. Those who wore the bracelets vowed to leave them on until the soldier named on the bracelet, or their remains, were returned to America. Between 1970 and 1976, approximately 5 million bracelets were sold.

On Veterans Day, November 11, 1970, the bracelet program was announced with a news conference at the Universal Sheraton Hotel. Public response quickly grew and eventually got to the point where over 12,000 requests a day were coming into VIVA.

Carol ended up dropping out of college to work for VIVA full time and administered the bracelet and other POW/MIA programs. In addition to distributing nearly five million bracelets VIVA raised enough money to produce untold millions of bumper stickers, buttons, brochures, matchbooks, newspaper ads, etc., to draw attention to the missing men and publicize the POW/MIA issue.

In 1976, VIVA closed its doors as by then the American public regrettably was tired of hearing about Vietnam and showed no interest in the POW/MIA issue. It truly was a different time then and the Viet-

nam War never had the support of or backing from the general public.

Today Vietnam Veterans still live with the unfortunate memory of how different it was when they returned home from America’s most unpopular war.

If you still have one of these bracelets and would like to try and find the serviceman it honors, you can go to http://www.pownetwork. org/bracelet.htm and by using the biography index you may be able determine his status and with additional research may develop your own story.

The Culpeper Times has featured dozens of veterans since starting our Salute to Veterans page. In this issue we thank Oliver Brugoto, Steven Dohl and John “Johnny” Slaughter for their service.

Who would believe that, in the year 1716, the Germanna Colony represented the far western frontier of the Colony of Virginia?

But, it is true! Germanna, located near the Orange County confluence of the Rapidan and Rappahannock Rivers, was then the furthest west outpost in the Colony. The Colonists were unaware of the mysteries, the challenges, and the opportunities that lay beyond the Blue Ridge mountains.

Admittedly, an occasional adventurer had ventured over the mountains mostly to engage in fur trading with friendly Indian tribes. And, most of those entrepreneurs returned with tales of rich lands, supporting an abundance of wildlife.

In August of 1716, 300 years ago, Alexander Spotswood, Lt. Gov. of the Virginia Colony, led an exploratory expedition that found a passage allowing them to cross over the Blue Ridge Mountains. Spotswood claimed what we now know as the Shenandoah Valley, and all lands to the west in the name of King George I. Spotwood’s Expedition opened the door to European settlement. He rewarded participating riders with a golden horseshoe emblem adorned with gems placed where horseshoe nails would be expected. He also declared each pin holder to be a Knight forevermore.

As testimony to the importance of Spotswood’s expedition, the ride erased the hesitancy for families to settle in, and beyond, the Shenandoah Valley. That is affirmed by colonial records which indicate that within 10 years more than 10,000 people had established homes, farms and businesses beyond the mountains. The westward movement in America had begun, and never stopped.

During August of this year, on the 300th anniversary, the Knights of the Golden Horseshoe Expedition will be re-enacted with multiple opportunities for the public to witness the historic event with riders clad in period costumes. They will also get to participate in planned events and television filming along the route.

The historic ride is being planned and organized by Tom Seay and Kristen Biscoe.

Seay is the Executive Producer and host of Best of America by Horseback show, as well as the owner of Andora Farms near Culpeper. Biscoe is the Co-host and Production Coordinator of Best of America

by Horseback, which is America’s favorite trail riding TV show. According to Seay, the re-enactors/riders are preparing to appear at public events in early Colonial-period attire. This ride will be televised as a historic event; the production will be broadcast at

Alexander Spotswood a later date. Plans are also being developed to give interested people opportunities to witness the progress of the ride and to participate in events along the way.

How can I follow this event?

The ride will commence on Aug. 23 at Germanna Foundation Visitor Center, which is near the historic site of Spotswood’s “Enchanted Castle,” located in or adjacent to Fort Germanna.

On Aug. 25, there will be a family-friendly evening event at Andora Farm sponsored by the Museum of Culpeper History.

Starting at 5 p.m., this fun-filled event will uniquely allow the public, at an affordable cost, to share in an old-fashioned country picnic dinner with the riders. They can also enjoy live music, storytelling, photo-ops with horses, and conversations with the riders. All that with hay bale seating and a bonfire on a genuine working farm.

Finally, starting at 1 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 27, the public is also invited to witness the arrival of the Knights as they conclude their ride. This will include a free ceremony and re-enactment of the toasting and pledge oaths. The location will be at Big Meadows which is accessed from the Skyline Drive atop the Blue Ridge Mountains. More details will be forthcoming as plans are finalized.

Getting to know Alexander Spotswood Arguably the best of all colonial governors was Alexander Spotswood of Virginia.

Patriot, soldier, statesman, administrator, builder, industrialist, he was all of these and a true Cavalier of the Old Dominion.

Born in Tangier, Africa, in 1676 at the British Garrison, he was the son of the surgeon to the royal governor of Tangier, the Earl of Middleton. His mother died when he was only 4 years old which left him to be raised in a military environment.

Thus, he became a soldier at the earliest ➤ See Horseshoe, Page 5

Culpeper Times • August 11-17, 2016

➤ Horseshoe, from Page 4 possible age. He served with distinction under the Duke of Marlborough at the Battle of Blenheim (Bavaria), where he was seriously wounded. Rising rapidly to the rank of Colonel, he demonstrated real skill as an energetic and able administrator, which led to his appointment as Lt. Governor of the Virginia Colony.

Spotswood’s re-assertion of the Writ of Habeas Corpus of 1606, giving imprisoned individuals the right to a timely court appearance, caused an enthusiastic welcome by the Virginia colonists. Concerned about the condition of public buildings in the colonial capital of Williamsburg, he set about what today is called “Public Works Projects.” He restored the main buildings at The College of William and Mary and Bruton Parish Church, and personally took over the design and supervision of the construction of the Governor’s Palace.

Lt. Governor Spotswood’s interest in the commercial development of natural resources led him to actively engage in iron mining, and the building of the first American regular iron furnace at Germanna colony, Orange County, Virginia.

The German-occupied Germanna colony was established by Spotswood in 1714 specifically to seek minable resources and to develop iron, copper and other mineral deposits.

Serving as Lieutenant

to a royal governor who never came to the colonies, Spotswood developed the colonial militia to a high state of readiness. It was he who directed the naval expedition against the notorious Blackbeard which resulted in the pirate’s death and the capture and subsequent hanging of his crew.

His statesmanlike vision recognized the dangerous spread of French influence in America which prompted him to seek to improve relations with the regional Indian tribes. That same concern led him, in 1716, to organize an illustrious group to explore and to lay claims on behalf of the English crown to the lands beyond the Blue Ridge Mountains in the Virginia Colony. This trek became known as Spotswood’s Transmontaine Expedition of the Knights of the Golden Horseshoe. Each participant was given recognition as a Knight and received

a Golden Horseshoe stickpin with embedded gemstones as a symbol of the exploration that led to the expansion of settlers into the Shenandoah Valley and beyond.

The golden emblems awarded the participants were in the shape of a horseshoe and were adorned by gems in the location where horseshoe nails would be expected. The reverse side was engraved in the Latin words, “Sic juvat transcendere montes” (English Translation, “Thus, it is pleasant to cross the mountains”.

The original emblems have been lost or hidden away among family heirlooms.

There is no present day record of any of these pins.

Smart Scale helps identify transportation projects

By Jeff Say

CULPEPER TIMES STAFF WRITER

It’s summer - which means construction in Culpeper County.

Projects are underway all along the county, mostly notably the Western Outer Loop, the bypass at U.S. 29 and Route 666 and the widening of Route 229 between the roundabout and Culpeper County High School.

But how do road projects get approved through the Virginia Department of Transportation?

Mark Nesbitt, VDOT’s Warrenton Residency Engineer, addressed the process while discussing the future of the recently named Ira Hoffman Lane. The Western Outer Loop, which will connect 522 to Route 729 by the end of the year, features another phase where it would connect to U.S. 29.

Already in the county’s comprehensive plan, there is no current funding for the project. So how would funding be acquired and what would happen after it was?

The county could enter into revenue sharing with VDOT, which is how the $17 million Western Outer Loop was funded. Once that funding was locked in, then the project would enter VDOT’s Smart Scale.

The scale, which was passed by the General Assembly as House Bill 2 and signed by Gov. Terry McAuliffe in 2014, directs the Commonwealth Transportation Board (CTB) to develop and use a prioritization process to select transportation projects to be funded.

The legislation is intended to improve the transparency and accountability of project selection, as well as provide improved stability in the Six-Year Improvement Program.

The process will score projects based on an objective and fair analysis applied statewide. This process will help the CTB select projects that provide the maximum benefits for tax dollars spent.

“The first round of projects came through last year,” Nesbitt said.

“Another round of projects will be

submitted by Sept. 30.”

Culpeper has three projects up for approval, intersection improvements at Route 229 and Route 640 West, widening and improvement of Route 663 and Route 15/U.S. 29 business widening south of Walmart.

The Smart Scale process includes five overarching steps. The preliminary step requires project sponsors to determine their eligibility prior to beginning the SMART

SCALE applications process. The final step in the prioritization process includes programming of selected projects.

According to Nesbitt once a project meets an identified need it is evaluated and scored. The scoring team evaluates five factors and the final score is determined by dividing the total factor score by the Smart Scale cost. Projects are then ranked and provided to the CTB for funding consideration.

White House Photographers’ exhibit debuts in Culpeper Culpeper residents will soon be getting a close up, insider's view of Washington.

Co-sponsored by the Germanna Presents! Lyceum and the Culpeper Arts & Culture Center, “The Eyes of History” showcases awardwinning Washington-based photojournalism. The exhibit will be on display at GCC's Daniel Technology Center in Culpeper.

It will launch with a public reception on Friday, Sept. 9, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., and will run through Sept. 11.

The exhibit spotlights the winners of this year’s contests in categories such as Presidential, Insiders Washington, Politics, On Capitol Hill, Sports Action, Sports Feature, Domestic News, International News and more.

The winners were judged in early 2016 from photos shot in 2015 by members of the White House News Photographers Association, an organization representing hundreds of photojournalists in the nation’s capital and around the world.

Members of the WHNPA have provided the visual, historical record of 16 presidents, from Warren G. Harding to Barack Obama.

of bears occur in the Blue Ridge and Alleghany Mountains and around the Great Dismal Swamp, bears are likely to be seen just about anywhere in Virginia. In a recent survey of VDGIF field staff, during the last 4 years bears have occurred in 85 of Virginia’s 98 counties/cities.

Late spring to early summer is the breeding season for the black bear. Adult males may roam well beyond their normal range searching for mates. Adult females breed every other year and give birth from mid-January to early February. Females that have raised cubs for the past 1½ years are ready to breed again, and the young are ready to be on their own and establish new home ranges. While young females generally establish a home range near that of their mother, young males may need to roam widely in order to establish a new home range.

Bears generally avoid humans, but they may wander into subur-

ban areas. So, what should you do if you see a bear? The most important response is to keep a respectful distance. A black bear would rather flee than have an encounter with people. Always remember that a bear is a wild animal, and never, ever feed a bear under any circumstances. When bears lose their fear of people, trouble is not far away.

The best way to encourage a bear to move on is to remove the food source that is attracting it. Do this by cleaning up or removing trash, pet food, livestock feed, grills and bird feeders. Do not store household trash in vehicles or on porches or decks. Take your garbage to the dump frequently, and if you have a trash collection service, put your trash out the morning of the pickup, not the night before.

If you do see a bear in your area, enjoy watching it from a distance.

Department at (804) 367-1000 so that the information can be passed on to a State Game Warden assigned to your area.

Deer White-tailed deer fawns are born April through July, with the majority of births in June. Most does will have one fawn each year, but occasionally twins or triplets are seen.

From birth the fawns are left alone while their mothers go off to feed.

The mothers will stay away from the fawns to avoid leading predators to their location. They will

HOME & GARDEN return at dusk and dawn to move and/or feed their young.

If you find a deer fawn: Is the fawn injured (bleeding, broken bones, wounds, caught on a fence, etc.)?

If YES, contact your nearest veterinarian that is capable of and willing to see wildlife patients (always call the veterinarian prior to bringing wildlife to the hospital) or rehabilitator for treatment.

If NO, it is normal for fawns of any age to be left alone all day. Never expect to see the mother come back to the fawn while you are in the area. The mother will return to care for it if you leave it alone. You can check back in 24-48 hours.

On Wednesday (Aug.3) a hiker reported an encounter with a mother bear and two cubs on the Snead Farm Fire Road near Dickey Ridge Visitor Center (mile 4.6 Skyline Drive) in Shenandoah National Park.

Orphaned fawns will need to be cared for until they are old enough to be released in early Fall.

Sales. The 459 total sales in Q1 2016 were the highest Q1 level since 2013 (476 sales). Three jurisdictions showed year-over-year increases. Madison County had the largest increase at 62.5 percent with 26 sales in Q1 2016 and 16 sales in Q1 2015. Culpeper County was next with a 29.1 percent increase with 142 sales this year and 110 sales in Q1 2015. Fauquier County was next with 190 sales this year and 174 sales last year, a 9.2 percent increase.

Orange County showed a 1.1 percent decrease with 89 sales in Q1 2016 and 90 sales in Q1 2015. Rappahannock County had a 33.3 percent year-over-year decrease with 12 sales this year and 18 sales in Q1 2015.

Sold to List Price Ratio. The first quarter’s average sale price to original list price ratio continued to outpace both the five-year and 10-year average rates.

Currently at 94.2 percent (or a 5.8 percent seller discount) this value is higher than both the five-year (92.4 percent) and 10-year (91.0 percent) average Q1 values. We expect downward pressure on this measure in Q2 as more competition encourages more seller concessions.

Swing Low: Hist-Horror-cal Film tackles slavery and race ➤ See it at GenreBlast Film Fest at State Theatre Staff Report State Theatre Executive Director Stephen Barker is bringing something new and different to the State Theatre with a brand new film festival.

Barker wants to celebrate the finest in true genre cinema. He put out the word looking for filmmakers to offer their best features, shorts, music videos and screenplays Elam in the categories of horror, action/adventure, sci-fi, fantasy, martial arts, exploitation, grindhouse, international, experimental and more.

GenreBlast is a festival for filmmakers, by filmmakers. The festival aims to be a party for filmmakers and film lovers that will strive to become one of the best new independent film festivals around.

Rather than dingy hotel conference rooms, filmmakers can screen their films in style at the newly remodeled theatre.

“We are LGBTQ friendly and love diversity in our crazy, whacked-out genre cinema,” says Barker.

Just one of many films selected to be shown is a film called SWING LOW by first time filmmaker Phil Elam, at the upcoming GenreBlast Film Festival to be held at the State Theatre from Aug. 19-21. SWING LOW takes place in the days prior to the Civil War when an extraordinary slave named Samuel battles the confines of slavery. When plantation owner Thompson sets out on a mission of murder, a ride of supernatural terror ensues that tips the scales of justice toward the realm of Revenge.

“SWING LOW is relevant in today's rampant resurgence of racial intolerance disguised under the guise of suppressed voting rights, ethnic profiling and racial brutality,” said actor and film producer Phil Elam who will be coming to Culpeper for his film’s debut.

“SWING LOW reminds us that situations have not changed much from one century to the next. Regardless of this, SWING LOW shows us that any one person at any moment can make a stand for those for whom justice has been denied,” continued Elam.

SWING LOW has already won a TV Pilot Award and Phil Elam has received Best Actor in a Short Film at other prestigious film festivals.

“I am now extremely honored and humbled to show SWING LOW at GenreBlast,” says Elam.

Industry veteran Marvin Towns, Jr. immediately agreed to direct SWING LOW based upon the merits of the script. Phil Elam gives Mr. Towns credit for putting together an incredible production team who agreed to work on the film for virtually no money.

“The movie would not be what it is today if it weren’t for Marvin’s belief and incredible ability to bring the screenplay to life.”

Phil Elam is the screenplay author and portrays the lead role of Samuel in SWING LOW. The buzz on Facebook for SWING LOW has already garnered two nominations for Best Screenplay and Best Song.

“We are beyond excited for both nominations,” says Elam. “I shouted and jumped out of my chair when they were announced. The passion we put into the film from the first

idea of the screenplay to recording the final vocal track was such a rewarding journey.”

GenreBlast 2016 will take place Aug.19 – 21 at The State Theatre, 305 S. Main St. in Culpeper. Tickets

AUTOMOTIVE SHOWCASE

range from $10 to $40 for the entire festival. For ticket Information (540) 829-0292. For more information about SWING LOW contact pelam0709@comcast.net (248) 8210709

VIEWS

From the desk of Congressman Dave Brat I have always believed in the importance of following a certain set of principles, and have earned your trust by doing what is right and voting in a consistent manner every day. I have devoted my life and career to the belief that merging the ethics of the Judeo-Christian tradition with the belief that a free market and a free people results in a prosperous nation. As your representative in Congress, I will always govern with these beliefs as my guide. As I continue to work for you, I want you to feel that you have a say and that your voice is heard whether we agree about an issue or not. Some of the political elites in Washington, D.C. have decided that they are above the people that they represent and seek to silence them. Not me. I will always welcome your comments and concerns because it holds me accountable to you, not the political class.

Baton Rouge On July 17, three police officers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana were killed and an additional three officers were injured in an ambush carried out by a gunman who is believed to be Gavin Long of Kansas City, Missouri. This attack came only 10 days after the attack on police in Dallas, Texas. These senseless acts of violence serve no purpose but to strike fear into the hearts and minds of law enforcement officials that seek to protect and serve the communities in which they live. I will continue to pray for the families of the officers and for peace in Baton Rouge and all communities around the United States.

World News On July 14, Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel drove a truck through a parade in Nice, France, for more than a mile, killing 84 and injuring 200. ISIS has since claimed responsibility for the attack, although the French police are still investigating potential ties to the terrorist organization. We continue to see deadly attacks carried out in countries around the world and at home. During this time of global uncertainty, I ask for strong American leadership to bring the world together in this fight against radical Islamic terrorism.

Supporters of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan successfully repelled a coup attempt on the night of July 15 and early hours of July 16 that saw the deaths of

290 and injuries of over 1,400. Erdogan has arrested over 6,000 people since the conclusion of the attempted coup. There is no certainty in Erdogan's plans for the future of Turkey. Some have suggested that he wants to expand the authority and powers of the presidency, while others believe he seeks to establish a caliphate or Islamic republic. I will continue to monitor the situation in Turkey as details surrounding the attempted coup are brought to light.

On a recent Sunday a Syrian man who was denied asylum in Germany a year ago blew himself up outside a music festival in Ansbach, Germany injuring 12. This comes less than a week after Mohammad Riyad, and Afghan teenager yelled "Allahu Akbar" on a German train before beginning to wield an axe against fellow passengers.

Father Jacques Hamel, a priest in southern France, was killed by two militants of the Islamic State in a church during a morning Mass.

Both suspects were killed by police unites on the scene. One of the suspects has been identified as Adel K, who has reportedly attempted to enter Syria twice.

A Chinese admiral threatened the United States and other countries by saying navigation patrols by foreign navies in the South China Sea could "end in disaster."

This comes after an international arbitration court ruled that China could not lay claim to a vast majority of the territory.

Legislative Highlights I recently introduced four bills related to curbing radical Islamist terrorism and illegal immigration.

H.R. 5823, the Naming the Enemy Within Homeland Security Act, would prohibit the Department of Homeland Security from funding or collaborating with in any way organizations or individuals associated with the Muslim Brotherhood.

A group with such an anti-freedom and democracy ideology should have no influence within the Department of Homeland Security, which is charged with preserving safety here in the homeland.

H.R. 5824, the Religious Freedom International Reciprocity Enhancement (FIRE) Act, would prohibit foreigners from countries that don't respect religious liberties from funding their own religious activities in the United States. Islamist financiers in the

Middle East, especially Saudi Arabia, are pouring funds into the United States and other Western nations to advance their extremist interpretations of Islam. At the same time, however, sharing non-Muslim faiths, promoting conversion, or even holding other religious views are crimes in those countries. Christians can be put to death for sharing their religion in Saudi Arabia, while the Saudi royal family funds indoctrination of children in the United States.

H.R. 5825, the Illegal Alien Criminal Notification Act, would require state and local jurisdictions to collect and share information on criminal aliens with the Federal government, and would prohibit federal funds from going to state and political subdivisions that do not comply with detainer requests.

H.R. 5826, the Detain and Deport Act, would clarify the authority of ICE Detainers and provides the sense of Congress that the Department of Homeland Security has the probable cause that an alien is inadmissible or deportable when it issues a detainer regarding such alien.

At a time of unrest around the world, we need to emphasize national security with strong leadership.

These bills put the safety of Americans first, and I am proud to have sponsored them.

In the News I discussed the actions I am taking to combat radical Islamist terrorism and illegal immigration with the Washington Examiner. These countries are using our own tolerance and virtue against us, and it is time that ends.

Federal Computer Week (FCW) highlighted my bill H.R. 4006, the Statutes at Large Modernization Act, which would put all the laws Congress has ever passed in a digital and searchable format.

This legislation would enhance transparency and efficiency in Congress, and empower citizens with better knowledge of the laws that affect their daily lives and the laws that governed earlier generations of Americans.

Economics 101 The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) now expects federal debt held by the public to reach 141 percent of the nation's GDP by 2046. That estimate is a significant increase from last year's prediction of 111 percent, and would be the highest level of debt in U.S. history.

Perhaps the most disturbing in-

formation in the report, federal spending on healthcare will rise from 5.5 percent of GDP to 8.8 percent by 2046, and by 2034, the federal government will spend more on healthcare than it does on defense, discretionary programs, and welfare programs combined.

Almost half of all revenues will go towards health care related bills.

National Night Out promotes positive partnerships

On Aug. 2, our department held its annual National Night Out events throughout the Town. Various neighborhood watch groups and business watch groups participated in this celebration with our agency.

National Night Out is about promoting positive partnerships between the police and its community members. An estimated 750 people attended the events that were held across the Town. Some of the events that were held in the neighborhood watch areas were cookouts, ice cream socials, block parties, pool parties, neighborhood walks, pizza parties, and various activities for kids. We are very proud to say that each of the 24 neighborhood watch and business watch groups participated in this year's National Night Out celebration.

The National Night Out celebration this year would not

VIEWS have been possible without the hard work from many agency personnel, donors, and community members.

The planning process for an event this large begins several months in advance. First off, the community members and businesses involved in this event assisted officers with coordinating food and festivities at the various events. The community members also brought the energy and fun to each respective event. Officers comment each year about how much fun they have interacting with citizens at the events. This includes dancing, singing, playing on moon bounces, or playing football with the kids. Secondly, we would like to say thank you to our many donors for their continued support of National Night Out and our agency each year.

Without the continued support from our donors this event would not be possible. A special thank you to the Pegasus flight crew and Pegasus Coordinator Shawn Reid for bringing the Pegasus aircraft to one of the local events this year. The Culpeper

Target provided the lovely event banners that were posted around Town. Culpeper Renaissance was responsible for flyers and balloons that were posted at local businesses.

Finally, I would like to say thank you to the dedicated members of the Culpeper Police Department for making this event a success each year.

The Culpeper Police Department is committed to improving the quality of life for all citizens. Our agency looks for ways to positively interact with the citizens that we serve and help them with any problems that they may have.

We enjoy the opportunity that is given to us on National Night Out each year to have this positive interaction. We are already planning for next year's event. Once again thank you to each and every person involved in making this event a success this year!

Golf tournament to benefit Angel Flight ➤ Angel Flight pilot J.J. Quinn remembered by friends as an ‘angel’

By Jeff Say

CULPEPER TIMES STAFF WRITER

For Tony Windland, it was only fitting that J.J. Quinn was a pilot - because “he was an angel here on Earth.”

The Windland’s late son Andrew was the recipient of the first Angel Flight into Culpeper, piloted by Quinn, on Dec. 23, 2011.

That experience led to a strong bond between Andrew, the Windland family and Quinn - a bond that lasted until Quinn passed away following an airplane accident on May 24.

Before his untimely passing, Quinn was working with the ➤ See Angel, Page 23

Knights of Columbus Council 6328 from Precious Blood Catholic Church on a charity golf tournament for Angel Flight MidAtlantic. After Quinn passed, Windland and the rest of the Knights of Columbus decided it was only fitting to hold the tournament in memory of Quinn as well.

The tournament will be held Oct. 3, with registration at 8:30 a.m. and a shotgun start at 10 a.m.

A prayer answered The Windlands first learned of Quinn in December 2011 when Andrew, suffering from desmoplastic round cell tumors, was receiving treatment at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.

He had just undergone a round of treatment and was unable to travel long distances via public transportation. Tony and Allison Windland were looking for any way to get their son home for Christmas. That’s when family friend Gene Foret said he knew of someone - and a call to Quinn was placed.

“I had heard about Angel Flight through the National Institute of Health,” Tony said. “It was the first Angel Flight to land in Culpeper. My first thought was ‘what a saint.’ He lost his wife to cancer and dedicated his life to helping those the way he could.”

Andrew liked people with a story, and Quinn had a story to tell. The then 70-something pilot and the 11-year-old became fast friends and J.J. would make several more flights for Andrew for Angel Flight.

“It’s incredible, I don’t think a lot of it would be possible without that,” Andrew’s sister Suzi said. “Being able to know you can come home if you want to, was absolutely incredible.”

“There was an immediate bond,” Tony said. “J.J. was just a

His love that he had and the compassion that he had for doing what he did was infectious. It was not a professional relationship, it was more like a one-on-one relationship.”

Quinn knew Andrew as an avid golfer, so as they flew he would point out golf courses below.

When Andrew passed on Sept.

22, 2012, Quinn was quick to offer a special missing man formation flyover during his funeral.

After his son’s passing, Tony continued to have a relationship with Quinn as the pilot moved to Culpeper, joined Precious Blood Catholic Church (where years ago he had been the first altar server in the history of the church) and joined the Knights of Columbus.

“J.J. and I clicked right away because he was very much into helping others, same as myself,” Tony said. “He always wanted to help and be involved.”

Tony and his wife Allison were away on vacation when they found out that Quinn had passed, and he quickly went about renaming the Angel Flight golf tournament in his friend’s honor.

“He’d come into church wearing his Angel Flight gear, and he would do two or three missions a day,” Tony said. “He put God first.”

The pilot flying the mission donates all expenses of the flight.

Coordination is handled by the Angel Flight Mid-Atlantic office. Angel Flight also receives

additional support from corporations, foundations, workplace campaigns, individuals, churches, civic clubs and the Combined Federal Campaign.

Tony was never sure of how much it cost for the flights to New York, but knew Quinn handled all the expenses.

“I know I hired J.J. to fly us to Canton, Ohio a few years ago to go to the Soap Box Derby and the fuel was $750,” Tony said.

The Windlands were just one of several families touched by Quinn and Angel Flight.

Sandy Minnihan’s husband Jim was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer and by 2013 the cancer had spread to his bones, lungs and liver.

“We were fortunate enough to get approval for him to participate in a clinical trial at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City – but it required him to be in NYC every 3 weeks for treatment, scans etc,”

Sandy said. “It was daunting to consider traveling that frequently. Bus travel was time consuming and painful, and flights were too expensive.

Fortunately a friend connected us with JJ and Angel Flights.”

“We grew to know him and his co-pilots as friends,” Sandy said.

“No matter how long the appointments stretched – and it was almost always beyond our estimates – JJ was waiting for us at the airport in White Plains. Never once did he complain about the delays, or the early morning departures.”

Jim’s battle with cancer ended in February, Sandy said, and Quinn spoke at the funeral and would check in every few weeks afterward to see how she was doing.

None of us imagined that JJ would be with Jim again so soon,” Sandy said. “ The world lost a giant among men, and we lost a true and caring friend.”

Family tragedy leads mom to action

By Craig Macho

SPECIAL TO THE CULPEPER TIMES

South Wales resident Moira Satre received the call every parent dreads, regardless of their child's age, in April 2015.

Her 31-year-old son, Bobby, had died. And like too many deaths in Fauquier County and surrounding areas, his death was from a heroin overdose.

Satre said she knew her son was an addict and had worked endlessly in trying to help him conquer his addiction.

From stints in rehab to various doctor visits, her family tried their best to allow Bobby to overcome his demons.

"When we were dealing with Bobby's addiction, there was really nowhere to go to get the help he wanted.

It was very overwhelming to get on the Internet and sift through all the information," she said.

Satre was a registered nurse who dedicated a 37 year career to helping others, yet even she, with her healthcare background, found it difficult to seek out the resources her son need-

ed.

Bobby's death was a turning point for Satre, a crisis in the community that she felt she had to address.

“After he died I just felt I couldn’t work as a nurse anymore, and my focus shifted to working on the problem of addiction in our community.”

She gave her employer six months notice and then launched herself into her new career with the start of the CAYA (Come As You Are) Coalition, a website that offers resources for addicts and their families to connect with.

"They need to know where they can go for help for their loved one who is struggling with addiction," Satre said.

She said she was moved to act when she realized how much Bobby was loved by his friends, because of how giving he was to them. Some of his friends produced a book that included notes and comments about memories of Bobby left on his Facebook page.

“In reading it I knew how important his friends were to him, but I had no idea how important he was to his friends. So I decided the giving

had to continue."

The website was launched in April, and Satre recently decided to hold a 5K run to raise funds to further help local families struggling with addiction.

The mission, she said, is to not only continue to connect families to local support and resources but to raise awareness of the problem of substance abuse and reduce the stigma by educating the community and providing prevention programs.

In addition, they want to offer sober activities to addicts in recovery, and in the future offer certified recovery coaching.

“They’re not therapists, but are certified. The purpose of a recovery coach is to guide someone in recovery in helping them deal with daily life problems, making a plan and setting goals,” she said.

In their Daily Activity Log, the Fauquier County Sheriff's Office keeps statistics on the number of overdoses that occur in the county each day.

It is rare, over a period of a week, that this particular box isn't checked on the county stat sheet.

Satre said it is not unusual for a family member to not realize a person they care about is using opiates.

“Bobby was a very hard worker, he was a functioning addict,” she said. A sales representative for a packaging firm, she said he was skilled at his job and to all outward appearances, was healthy.

“Everything was going right in his life, his sales were going up, he was getting ready to propose to his longtime girlfriend,” she noted.

Although he was open about his addiction with his family and wanted help, Satre said opiates controlled his life, even when he was sober.

“We put him in rehab several times and were very supportive of his recovery, but he said it was a daily struggle for him. He said it even invaded his dreams. It was difficult as a parent to hear and difficult to know he struggled that way, but I've learned so much now, how difficult it is for an addict to get off it.”

The 5K run Satre is organizing is truly a grassroots effort.

A neighbor who is a retired publicist is helping to get the word out, and Satre has sent letters to local businesses she is seeking as race sponsors.

“We're hoping the business community will partner with us, because this is a community problem. We need to take the strain off the emergency rooms, courtrooms and prisons.

Culpeper Police to utilize NARCAN on the streets this week

By Anita L. Sherman

CULPEPER TIMES STAFF WRITER

Culpeper County law enforcement officials continue to battle the heroin epidemic with Culpeper ranking number one in the region for overdoses. A new tool that 42 Culpeper Town Police will add to their arsenal this coming Friday is NARCAN. Administered in the nose, it can reverse an opioid overdose literally bringing that individual back from near death.

Since the beginning of the year, there have been 19 deaths related to overdoses in the Blue Ridge Task Force region which includes Culpeper, Fauquier, Orange, Madison and Greene.

Heading up the effort in Culpeper is Captain Tim Chilton who has been working for about a year looking into the legal and medical ramifications of arming police with a drug formerly only administered by medical emergency personnel.

“I worked closely with Ray Acors from Fauquier and James Fenwick from Orange,” said Chilton on Tuesday as he sat with several boxes of NARCAN, a drug that can save lives.

Continuing to research grant monies, Chilton ultimately found a partner in Warren Jenkins and emergency personnel working with UVA Culpeper hospital who is currently supplying NARCAN to the police department.

Now, whether it’s emergency personnel or the police who respond first to a scene where the victim is unconscious due to an overdose, either can quickly administer the drug.

“And, reassures Chilton, “the drug will not harm you if it is administered and it isn’t a drug overdose.”

However, if it is, the drug acts effectively to bring the individual to consciousness and then transported to a medical facility.

“The hospital has stepped right up,” says Chilton noting that an individual dose (two units) runs roughly $180.

“While I know that there are different schools of thought out there,” says Chilton, “we believe our primary responsibility is to save lives when we can..with the hope that the person will be able to regain control of their lives at some point.”

Education and training have been months in the process for the police officers but now Culpeper, along with Fauquier County, that has already been administering NARCAN, have this additional tool when faced with a life-threatening situation due to a drug overdose.

“We see this as a positive step,” echoed Chief Chris Jenkins, “NAR-

CAN isn’t the silver bullet but it’s a tool that gives a person another chance particularly when there isn’t immediate and affordable treatment available.”

Chilton said that they’ve seen as many as three overdoses in any given week. While the sheriff’s office deputies are currently not prepared to administer NARCAN, Chilton said that he was working with Nick White at the sheriff’s office to hopefully make that happen in future.

Chilton also noted that at last year’s Virginia General Assembly, the Good Samaritan Law was passed.

“Sometimes people are reluctant to call for help in an overdose situation...fearing that they will be implicated. Now that fear is removed...this law gives immunity for those who contact law enforcement. They won’t be subject to any prosecution,” said Chilton.

With no cost to taxpayers, the legal legwork done and the effectiveness of NARCAN a proven, Chilton is encouraged.

“So far, so good...the officers will all be equipped with NARCAN this Friday.”

“Tim has worked very hard to make this happen,” said Jenkins, “there are so many dying from overdoses...we believe this is a positive step.”

What is NARCAN? NARCAN (naloxone) may be used for the complete or partial reversal of opioid depression including respiratory depression, induced by natural and synthetic opioids, including propoxyphene, methadone and certain mixed agonistantagonist analgesics.

It is also used for diagnosis of suspected or known acute opioid overdose. Many police departments have issued NARCAN to their officers for emergency use to save the lives of individuals who have overdosed on opioids.

According to the Virginia State Police, Trooper C. R. Scally was monitoring traffic when he observed a motorcycle traveling at a high rate of speed northbound on Rt. 17.

He checked its speed at 83 mph in a 55 mph zone and attempted to stop the driver. The motorcycle, with a male driver and female passenger, began to elude the trooper by accelerating and illegally passing vehicles. The pursuit continued north on Rt. 17 and then on Rt.29 towards the Town of Warrenton.

At 8:31 pm, as the pursuit approached Rt. 880, the 2012 Suzuki motorcycle was in the right lane and came up behind a 2009 Cadil-

lac also in the right lane. The driver of the Cadillac heard the trooper’s siren and saw blue light approaching and moved to the right shoulder to yield. The motorcyclist attempted to pass on the right shoulder and sideswiped the Cadillac. The motorcycle then went off the roadway to the right and both occupants were ejected.

Sergeant C. M. Crummett investigated the crash and was assisted by the Virginia State Police Crash Reconstruction Team, Fauquier Sheriff’s Department, VDOT and Fauquier County Fire and Rescue units. The investigation is still ongoing and no charges have been placed at this time, according to Virginia State Police officials.

Corked, You Say? THE WINE NERD Jim Hollingshead

Summer is nearing its close, and vacations are drawing to an end. If you went travelling this year, you may well have found yourself in the wine lover’s worst nightmare: stranded with a beautiful bottle

and no corkscrew.

My wife teases me for having a corkscrew(or wine key, as many of us in the industry refer to them) hidden in every room, in our car, and even in my In-Laws’ house, but, once you’ve had to open a bottle with a pair of screwdrivers, you’ll never be willing to repeat the process.

While the rise of ‘screw-top’ Stelvin caps has made things easier for vacationers, we should occasionally take the time to appreciate the beauty, history, and functionality of that frustrating cork.

The cork may be known as a recent invention, but it’s actually a reinvention. It was first used by the Romans, though the poor Ancients had no corkscrews- they simply snapped the necks off of their bottles.

It wasn’t until the late 17th century that cork began to make a comeback(most wine was kept in barrels, or in bottles closed with glass stoppers or oil-soaked cloth).

Soon after, the corkscrew was adapted from a tool referred to as a ‘steel worm’ for cleaning bullets and powder wads from rifles.

Thomas Jefferson encouraged the practice of bottling wine at the winery, rather than selling the wine in barrels that could be tampered with.

Today, bottles are typically sealed with real cork, synthetic corks, or screw-caps.

Synthetic corks are cheaper, and will prevent the wine from being ruined by a failed cork. Screw-tops are equally protective of the bottle’s contents, and are far easier to open.

In contrast, real corks are pricier, may fall apart when opened, and may even fail and ruin your wine while sitting on the shelf or in your collection.

Why then, with all these risks, COURTESY PHOTO does the authentic cork hold such Gray Ghost high esteem in our eyes?

Vineyards in I believe that the answer lies Amissville, VA, in Beauty. While it is true that displays artwork real cork allows the most micromade from their oxygenation (the cause of aging) used corks every in a wine, the bottle will still age Christmas. when sealed with other closures. We approve of the risk of the occasional ruined bottle because of the magical experience of the uncorking ceremony. Whether it is your waiter, wine-nerd friend, or simply you or your spouse opening a bottle, there is an air of mystique and drama to Classic Italian the opening of a bottle. The true Serving lunch & dinner cork revealed is the culmination of that ritual; without it, the experience feel anti-climactic.

Wine is a timeless, yet everchanging commodity. It is finding more and more homes in sealed bagin-box contraptions, kegs, and even occasionally in cans, all of which www.CulpeperCheese.com allow the wine to survive for longer 129 East Davis Street, Suite 100 and longer.

So the next time your waiter presents you with the cork upon opening the bottle, don’t sniff it and pretend that it tells you the quality of the wine inside- it holds little of the magic of the wine itself.

Culpeper Times • August 11-17, 2016 IN BRIEF

Free Clinic announces new director Culpeper Wellness Foundation announced Monday (Aug. 8) that Chris Miller has assumed the role of Director of the Free Clinic of Culpeper.

For the past 9 years Chris served as the Executive Director of Aging Together, a local non-profit dedicated to building the region's capacity to support our rapidly growing population of older adults. Her many accomplishments included building a network of resources that have increased access to services for family caregivers, expanded volunteer transportation and established elder abuse prevention and chronic disease self-management programs.

Under her leadership, Aging Together was recognized as a model program in the Virginia Blueprint for Livable Communities and received a Best Practices award from the Commonwealth Council on Aging.

Prior to her work with Aging Together, Chris spent two decades dedicated to expanding housing options and supportive services for children and adults with disabilities in Culpeper,

Fredericksburg, and Charlottesville.

Chris is a member of the Culpeper Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors and the Board of Culpeper Housing and Shelter Services.

Chris looks forward to focusing her efforts on ensuring that people without insurance have access to high quality medical care. As well, she is eager to work with the Clinic’s talented and dedicated staff to expand services and improve the health of our community. “We are delighted to have Chris on board at the Free Clinic of Culpeper,� said Shari Landry, President of Culpeper Wellness Foundation. “Chris is absolutely the right person for this position. In addition to her commitment to providing accessible, high-quality medical care for people without insurance, she is a relationship builder and collaborator. These qualities are key to achieving the Foundation’s mission of improving health and wellness in our community.�

Sunday, Aug. 21 at 12:30 for a huge lunch and mission’s silent auction as they celebrate the addition of their new music director, Erich Fritz who has been acting director for the last few months and is now celebrating his formal acceptance of the position.

NSBC has begun the Hope for Appalachia – Virginia Team mission trip where they collect supplies and prom dresses to take to the schools in Kentucky and surrounding areas to children who are less fortunate. Their mission group has grown significantly in size and involvement. They need a van to transport supplies as well as hearts and hands. Last year they were joined by other churches and took supplies to seven schools in the Appalachian region. This year they have been asked to bring supplies to even more schools!

The community has pitched in and donated many items for the auction.

They have dinners from local eateries, haircuts and styling, lovely items from the boutiques on Main street, a locally grown pig roast, handmade soaps and flower arrangements, home cooked dinners delivered to your home, music lessons, photography sessions, a golf outing for two, and much more. The church is located at 8233 Sperryville Pike on Rt. 522 past
