First to the fight: Hot pits deliver airpower faster By Staff Sgt. Carlin Leslie
633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
In car racing, the pit stop is where tires are changed, panels get fixed and the car gets its’ life blood or its fuel. During short turn missions and training sorties, U.S. Air Force aircraft have a similar pit stop. U.S. Air Force crew chiefs assigned to the 1st Fighter Wing and 733rd Logistics Readiness Squadron fuels operators work together to perform hot pit refueling, a fast paced fueling method. This allows aircraft to take on fuel while still powered up, getting them back to the fight quicker. According to Master Sgt. Justin Oakley, 733rd LRS fuels superintendent, hot refueling gives fuels and fighter wing Airmen the capability to support the mission requirements 66 percent faster, reducing ground time. “Hot refueling operations are a completely different ball game than refueling day-to-day under the sun shades,” said Oakley. “Having mission success is due to the Airmen in in our distribution element, being properly trained and being superior technicians out there pumping the gas, where the rubber hits the road.” Oakley added that being able to successfully train and execute in the hot

pits, gives Airmen that extra leg up when they are in a deployed environment and are tasked to work with other aircraft in the hot pits. “We are a very unique mission support function in the 633rd Air Base Wing, as
we are directly touching jets, whereas other base support is vital to getting the Airmen and cargo ready,” said Oakley. “Knowing that we are physically fueling the jet, really makes our team respect our small piece of the mission.” U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt.

JBLE-based brigade supports joint mission to Puerto Rico By Staff Sgt. Teresa J. Cleveland
633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
JOINT BASE CHARLESTON, S.C. -Editor’s Note: This article is part of a series highlighting Joint Base Langley-Eustis members’ contribution to humanitarian relief efforts. U.S. Army Soldiers assigned to the 597th Transportation Brigade, headquartered at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Virginia, connected with agency partners on Oct. 28 at TC Dock, located on the Joint Base Charleston Naval Weapons Station, to load supplies intended for the hurricane-battered island of Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico has both air and sea ports operated by Soldiers from the 597th Trans. Bde, which are vital to hurricane recovery efforts. This shipment of supplies is primarily to aid in rebuilding the power grid across the island, as the majority of communities are still without power. “Power is a big part of getting your life back, along with clean water,” said Alfred Murray, USNS Brittin captain. “So this is a big step to get their lives back to a normal level.” The brigade; U.S. Navy Cargo Handling Battalion 1 from Yorktown Naval Weapon Station, Virginia; the Federal Emergency Management Agency and other agencies loaded cargo onto Military Sealift Command’s USNS Brittin (T-AKR 305), a ship featuring cargo capacity of 215,000 square feet. Equipment loaded included commercial vehicles,
stoves, cots, construction and hygiene equipment, 53-foot refrigeration units, and more than 300 generators capable of supporting hospitals, schools and larger facilities. The 841st Trans. Battalion, on behalf of the United States Transportation Command and the Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command, is working with FEMA to load cargo onto the 946foot versatile vessel. Once the ship leaves port in the coming days, NCHB-1 will maintain the equipment during a four-day voyage down to Puerto Rico, where the 832nd Trans. Bn. will receive and unload the equipment. “We’re part of a bigger plan here and we have a lot of mission partners working together,” said U.S. Army Lt. Col. Chad Blacketer, 841st Trans. Bn. commander. “This is the largest Department of Defense ship that is supporting the operation right now--we’re just glad to be able to do our part to help our fellow Americans.” Funded by FEMA, this is the first of at least six surface ship humanitarian-relief deliveries scheduled to go through Charleston to Puerto Rico. “We’re really happy that Charleston could help out because we knew we had the capability to assist the people in Puerto Rico,” said U.S. Navy Lt. Brenton Breed, 841st Trans. Bn., 597th Trans. Bde. operations officer. “It’s nothing we can’t handle with the logistics expertise that we have; our guys are working long hours but it’s all worth it.”

JBLE Small Air Terminal, adds AMC cargo mission By Staff Sgt. Carlin Leslie
633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
Editor’s Note: This article is part of series highlighting Joint Base Langley-Eustis members’ contribution to humanitarian relief efforts from JBLE. In normal day-to-day operations the small air terminal at Joint Base Langley- Eustis, supports the 633rd Air Base Wing in passenger and cargo transport, to locations around the world. But the Tanker Airlift Control Center from Scott Air Force Base, Illinois, recently tagged the local unit to accomplish a much more intense mission, to assist in the loading of a transport for humanitarian relief efforts to the Caribbean Islands. According to U.S. Air Force Technical Sgt. Eugene Floyd, 733rd Logistics Readiness Squadron small air terminal NCO in charge of operations, getting the opportunity to directly support the Puerto Rico relief efforts and manage the deployment of the Fort Story, Va., Inland Cargo Transfer Company, allowed his Airmen to work right next to their U.S. Army counterparts.
Floyd’s team, with the assistance of the Fort Story Unit, successfully loaded seven C-17 Globemasters with more than 360 tons of cargo and 70 personnel, in just over 33 hours. “Providing disaster relief brings a sense of accomplishment, when you see those aircraft takeoff after you have just worked so hard,” said Floyd. “I was extremely impressed in how our team of Airmen came together to accomplish this mission, showing the true grit that they have to make it happen.” According to U.S. Air Force Master Sgt. William Linford, 733rd LRS small air terminal manager, being able to get all the units’ equipment pre-staged and inspected to joint service standards allowed for the teams to efficiently load all the cargo. While the small air terminal is balancing their normal daily missions and one deployment, Linford managed two more important missions. The first was assisting in the deployment of the Global Response Medical Force from Langley Air Force Base that supplies a mobile hospital and the second being the Rapid Port Opening Element from Fort Eustis.

This meant taking on an influx of over 200 tons of cargo, 150 more passengers and seven more aircraft on the flight line, all with their team of nine Airmen. “No matter what the hours are, the mindset of our Airmen is the gear has got to go, especially when it involves humanitarian airlift,” said Linford. “The » See AIR TERMINAL | 6

CONTINUED FROM 5 Airmen were the ones that pushed through and got the job done, they were driving the train to knock it out and make it happen.” According to Linford, his team had the opportunity to really see the efforts hit home as they have five unit individuals who have family in the Caribbean Islands , show up to fly as Space Available passengers. With the approval of Air Combat Command, the terminal was able to fill those seats and
help get additional supplies to those in need. “Whenever we were working with those families and good samaritans, to help get supplies to families, it really hit me,” said Linford. “There is a feeling of accomplishment just moving the units, but adding the families just made it more impactful.” The small air terminal is not a big Air Mobility Command port, and the Airmen are proud and ready to support the next big tasking to their full capability, whenever the Air Force calls.

builds upon another to test overall abilities as warfighters. THE CHALLENGE The week-long GAFPB challenge is open to all ranks, professions and branches, giving U.S. Army Soldiers, Air Force Airmen and German Army soldiers a chance to interact with fellow Armed Forces and coalition forces. German Army Lt. Col. Ingo Beisse, U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command German army liaison officer, enjoyed coordinating the assessment to give the almost 200 U.S. service members competing a sense of what it’s like for his soldiers in Europe. “If you share a common set of memories and you know what it means, it brings you a little closer,” said Beisse.

Air-to-air combat is fast paced and requires the right aircraft and a well-trained pilot. The pilot needs to have a fast reaction speed and the know-how to make the right decisions at the right time, which is why the some 71st Fighter Training Squadron T-38 pilots are selected to fly the very aircraft they oppose in their training mission, the U.S. Air Force F-22 Raptor. “There is no other plane out there that can do what we do, and a lot of people are amazed at how we (work together),” said U.S. Air Force Capt. Chaos, 27th Fighter Squadron F-22 pilot. “I think it’s a reflection on how awesome our jets are, but I also think it’s a reflection on how awesome our pilots are.” While F-22 pilots are skilled in handling the aircraft’s stealth, super cruise and maneuvers; they did not become fifth generation fighter pilots overnight. The journey to becoming an F-22 pilot, after graduating initial pilot training, generally takes nine months of physical and mental, trials, tests and training. For some the progression to the fifthgeneration cockpit takes two years longer as not every pilot in the 1st FW was chosen to fly the F-22 directly out of pilot training. Some, instead first, hone their pilot skills in the 71st FTS’ cold-war-era trainer aircraft, the T-38 Talon. Behind the cockpit of the T-38, the pilots have the opportunity to learn about the F-22s through their mission to act as enemy combatants fighting against and mimicking the movements of the aircraft some of them would soon pilot. “Our job here is to train the current Raptor pilots and to better prepare them for any war that may show up,” said Capt. Champ, 71st
Fighter Squadron T-38 Talon pilot. “We go out and set-up red air tactics and give them problems that they have to solve.” While they may not be F-22 pilots just yet, they are training and working hard alongside them every day, gaining experience they need before attending the eight-month-long basic course, also known as “B” course. “It was a pretty unique opportunity and I knew it was going to help me out going into “B” course,” said Capt. Vulture, 94th Fighter Squadron F-22 pilot. “It was a great experience, I got a ton of (flying) hours, and I got the opportunity to make a lot of mistakes that I don’t have to make now.” Going into “B” course, the pilots use their two extra years of knowledge and experience to their advantage in the class filled with otherwise pipe-line pilots. “The biggest thing we gained here was experience,” said Champ. “When flying an aircraft, experience is what can make or break you sometimes. We are surrounded by the Raptor community and we have the opportunity to see how they operate. That was definitely a huge advantage.” While in “B” course pilots learn the fundamentals of the F-22, the ins-and-outs of the aircraft and knowing how it will respond during certain situations. After approximately six weeks of constant training, studying and flight simulations, the pilots get to experience their first flight in an F-22. “The first time you fly the F-22 is awesome.” said Chaos. “You kind of feel like you hair is on fire because you’ve never flown anything with that kind of power before.” While not every 1st FW pilot started flying F-22s directly out of pilot training, they see each other as equals and as wingmen that are ready to take the fight to the enemy at a moment’s notice.

GERMAN BADGE | The prestigious German Armed Forces Proficiency
Badge is one of the most sought after foreign awards CONTINUED FROM 6 “We are getting so much from the Americans, being here, so this is a good option for us to give a little back.” To earn the badge, participants need to meet the set standard for each event—a 100-meter swim, 11x10 meter sprint, flexed arm hang, 1,000-meter run, ruck march with a 33-pound load and marksmanship test using the M9 pistol. THE VETERAN U.S. Army Sgt. 1st Class Alice Park, U.S. Army School of Music Advanced Individual Training course manager, has earned the gold badge three times before. Even after training several months in advance, she said she still feels nervous before every event. “I love being able to work toward something,” said Park. “Even though I have already done these three times, it doesn’t make it any easier at all. It’s still nervewracking and scary but it’s exciting. That’s why I want to keep doing this.” When first faced with the challenge, Park was illprepared. She failed the 100-meter swim—a primary eliminator event for participants in the challenge. The swim must be completed in full-duty uniform, minus cover and boots, in less than four minutes. Before exiting the pool, participants must also shed their outer garments down to their swimwear while treading water. “After I failed the swim, I had two or three months before the make-up swim to train,” she said. “I swam every day and was able to pass. The feeling was amazing. Now, I try to swim throughout the year on a regular basis and train in my uniform a few months out.” Now as a veteran of the competition hosted by TRADOC, Park finds herself in a coaching role for first-time competitors. Dispelling the belief that the competition is too difficult for some, she shares her experiences with future competitors and even helps prepare them for the challenge. “I enjoy being able to share what the challenge is like with new people,” she said. “I like ensuring them that it’s not as hard as they think and that they can do it.” Although the event appears to be an individual challenge, Park said a team-like connection grows among participants. “One thing I really enjoy is the morale-building aspect

of supporting one another and cheering each other on throughout the different events,” said Park. “I recently learned the bulk of the participants were AIT students and I thought it was neat that they had the opportunity to participate. What a great way to ignite and motivate the young Soldiers at the start of their military career.” Chasing her fourth gold badge, Park hopes to be an inspiration to other service members to take on the challenge. “I aspire to be a leader that can inspire, encourage and guide other service members to be better,” exclaimed Park. “I’m a petite female and if I can do this, then everyone can!” THE ROOKIE “I would say going into the challenge, I felt a healthy combination of nervousness and excitement with a touch of absolute dread.” Unlike Park, this was U.S. Air Force 2nd Lt. David Neil Regner’s first experience with the international fitness test. The newest member of the Air Combat Command Heritage of America Band took the opportunity to connect with his unit and become familiar with the joint community. “As difficult as the challenge was, it gave me time to have some great conversations with my fellow Airmen, and even some Army Soldiers,” said the newlyappointed flight commander. “I met some wonderful
people, heard fantastic stories and shared in some pretty good laughs.” Regner said when made the serendipitous decision to participate in the challenge, he was clueless about what he was really getting into. Thankfully, he wasn’t going through the challenge alone, and began training in midSeptember with three other Airmen in his unit. Just as Park mentioned, the lieutenant had a difficult time with the swim, and didn’t even qualify on his first attempt. “Don’t go into the GAFPB without having first gone through each challenge on your own, especially the swim,” said Regner. “You’d think taking your clothes off in water would be simple – but you’d be wrong! It goes without saying, but the more you know, the better you’ll prepare and the better you’ll perform.” With friendly competitive banter and enthusiastic cheers fueling a supportive environment, Regner connected with his fellow competitors. The flight commander felt the rewarding opportunity also enhanced his team’s readiness. “Events like this one provide a unique opportunity for new connections,” said Regner. “Not only between Army and Air Force, but with foreign military too; creating a stronger fighting force.” THE RESULTS Although the preliminary events end this week, some competitors will have the chance to requalify or get better scores during a make-up week. With the badge ceremony still several weeks away, all will have to wait for the final results in hopes they may be able to proudly wear the badge so many work so hard for. German army Staff Sgt. Tamar Doull, U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command German army main liaison staff member, swims during the German Armed Forces Proficiency Badge event at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Va., Oct. 20, 2017.

1FW celebrates centennial, unveils monument By Airman 1st Class Alexandra Singer 633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
As part of a centennial celebration, the 1st Fighter Wing unveiled a monument at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Oct. 27, 2017. The monument was about 9 feet tall, gray marble and inscribed with significant dates in the 1st Fighter Wing’s history. “This monument represents everything the men and women of the 1st Fighter Wing have accomplished over the past 100 years and what they continue to do on a daily basis,” said U.S. Air Force Col. Jason Hinds, 1st FW commander. “We have a rich heritage and track record of excellence that our Airmen celebrate and strive to continue as they work around the clock to fulfill the nation’s Air Dominance needs mission. This monument will help remind us how American airpower began, and how important the 1 FW is to that legacy as we continue to conduct
Up to
combat operations and begin our next century of being First to the Fight.” With the monument unveiling, the 27th and 94th Fighter Squadrons were given combat streamers to put on their guide-on. The combat streamers were presented to recognize the two squadrons’ recent deployment in support of Operation Inherent Resolve. “Though this ceremony celebrated the centennial of the 1st Fighter Wing, it represented something much bigger that applies to the whole of the United States Air Force — the beginning of American combat aviation,” said Joshua Lashley, 1st FW historian. “The organization of the 1st Pursuit Group is one of the most important actions in Air Force history. According to Lashley, the heritage of the 1st Fighter Wing is extremely important to the Air Force and this monument displays that heritage and history for all to see. The wing will never forget the hard work and sacrifices of

U.S. Army Sgt. 1st Class James Segrue, U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command security NCO in charge, has made the All-Army team six times since his first tryout in 2009, and has led the team to victory for the past two years as team captain. “It’s such a great opportunity to represent your unit and the Army, while networking and being a part of the brotherhood,” said Segrue. “I love the competition between the services and the camaraderie that lasts a lifetime.” During the tournament, the All-Army Men outscored their opponents 278183, winning their sixth-straight Armed Forces gold. They left with a perfect 9-0 record for the first time in history. With his leadership’s approval to travel each year to play a sport he loves, Segrue said the camp and tournament are more challenging one might expect. “Those training days are longer than most people’s duty days,” said Segrue. “It’s like that every day for two weeks straight— it’s not just physically tiring but mentally as well.” Becoming a member of the All-Army team begins with an application process.
Each year Soldiers from across the Army submit an application, from which the coach selects 25 to attend a two-week tryout training camp. Following the twoweek tryout period, the team is narrowed down to 15 players who will train for an additional two weeks before moving on to the Armed Forces tournament. Segrue believes the skills he has developed throughout the years as a team member and captain have also translated into his duties at his assigned unit as well. “Where I work we’re a small, tight-knit group and we work as a cohesive team just like in softball,” said Segrue. “Not one person is going to win or lose that game, but the team aspect is what wins or loses. If you fail at a mission, you’re all going to fail the mission together but if you work together as a team, you’ll accomplish the mission.” Though this was Segrue’s last year participating in the All-Army Sports program, he still enjoys working as an ambassador, encouraging other Soldiers to participate as he has. “It was an honor and privilege to have played for so many years and go out on top,” said Segrue. “It makes me really proud to know we accomplished those goals and made history together.” For more information about the AllArmy Sports program, visit https:// www.armymwr.com/programs-andservices/sports-and-fitness/all-armysports.

Don’t ‘fall’ for these safety hazards By Senior Airman Kaylee Dubois
633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
As the fall season arrives, new hazards come with it. The change in weather can increase driving risks, health concerns like the flu, fireplace mishaps and hunting accidents. As a precaution, the 633rd Air Base Wing Safety Office has provided some tips to keep Joint Base Langley-Eustis community members safe this autumn to enjoy what the season offers: FALL DRIVING SAFETY: - Drive slowly and avoid hard braking through leaves, especially when wet. Wet leaves can be as slippery as ice. - Fog on cold fall mornings can limit driving visibility and perception of distance. Do not use high beams in foggy conditions as it worsen visibility. Instead, stay alert and drive slow. - Be sure to clear frost from windows to ensure visibility and response time on the road. - Watch for wildlife, especially in the early morning and evening hours. Fall season brings an increase in deer activity because the season is their time for mating and migrating. - Check tire pressure often. With rapidly changing temperatures, tire pressure often expands and contracts, leading to a loss of pressure. FLU SHOTS: - The Center for Disease Control recommends anyone age six months and older to get a yearly flu vaccine to decrease the chances of contracting the virus. - Vaccination of high-risk individuals is important to decrease chances of severe flu-illness risks. - Young children, pregnant women, people age 65 years and older and those with certain chronic health conditions are at a higher risk of serious flu complications. - To limit the spread of germs, be sure to wash hands with soap and water.
Cover nose and mouth when sneezing or coughing. Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth. Clean and disinfect surfaces and objects that may be contaminated with germs. FIREPLACE AND FURNACE SAFETY: - All chimneys should be inspected and cleaned by a professional at least once a year. Cracks or damages should be repaired by a professional mason. - Clear away any tree limbs encroaching on the chimney. - The U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency suggests checking furnaces before the cold weather arrives. Replacing the air filter monthly and upgrading to a pleated filter, HEPA filter or electrostatic filter will increase energy efficiency and allow warm air to flow unimpeded. - Clean air vents and ducts and keep the areas free of clutter. SMOKE AND CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR SAFETY: - According to the National Fire Protection Association, three out of every fire home-fire deaths result from homes without smoke alarms. - Smoke alarms and carbon-monoxide detectors should be tested monthly and batteries should be replaced once a year. - Smoke and carbon-monoxide detectors can be interconnected wirelessly to sound off all together. FIREARMS SAFETY: - Hunting season is not the only time to practice firearm safety; it should be practiced year-round. - Keep firearms unloaded and stored in a locked box until use. - Treat every firearm as if it is loaded, and always be sure of the target and what is beyond it. - Never leave a firearm unattended in an unlocked car or around children. For more information, contact the 633rd ABW Safety Office at 764-5050 (Langley Air Force Base) or 501-8226 (Fort Eustis).

Manpower shortage impacts 633rd Medical Group services
