June 24, 2016 Nancy Current, 733rd Logistics Readiness Squadron unit program coordinator, laughs at a joke while visiting with a friend at Fort Eustis, Va., June 2, 2016.

The bright side: Civil servant puts service before self

Current has worked in civil service for 29 years as a way to give back to Service members sacrificing for the nation’s freedom.

By Staff Sgt. Natasha Stannard

633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS

Peeking through an always open door in building 705 here, Nancy Current sits with a smile framed by her pink and purple swaying bangs. Passersby halt directly in front the 733rd Logistics Readiness Squadron’s entryway to lean in for a quick hello to the Squadron’s program coordinator, Nancy. The greeting is immediately followed by her laughter, which glides into the hallway. “Sometimes you just have to laugh,” said Nancy, “Laughter is what keeps me going.” Through 29 years of civil service at six different locations with the Department of Defense, Nancy has kept this light disposition at work even when stress hit her home life. “You have to put some light in your life when your husband has a terminal illness,” said Nancy. “People ask me, ‘how do I cope with his disease?’ Prayer and laughter — if I didn’t have those things I would be balling my eyes out,” Having never dealt with such an illness, when she first got the news of David’s diagnosis two years ago, Nancy was at a loss. “If you look it up, dementia is like an umbrella for a whole bunch of cognitive functions and other health issues — there is no getting better,” she explained. “We were both just really upset, and had issues understanding each other.” In the beginning stages of his ailment, the couple got frustrated due to

U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Natasha Stannard

lack of memory on his part and lack of initial understanding on hers. “It took a while to get used to,” said Nancy. “Either I could get angry and stay angry or get frustrated, or I could start seeing the lighter side. I figured out I was less stressful for him by being brighter.” This outlook to overcome not only shines past small frustrations like repeating questions and moving glasses back into the proper cabinet, but it carries into her work. “She’s always upbeat,” said her previous supervisor Lorenzo Riddick, 733rd Mission Support Group director of operations. “Just in general as an administrative assistant, she always made sure that what she sent up to higher headquarters was perfect.” However, some days are still harder than others for Nancy. “Not good,” Nancy answered to a friend asking how things are. “He had a bad day yesterday.” These difficult days could entail anything from David waking up at 3 a.m. confused about where he is to refusing to take medication as he doesn’t remember anything being wrong with him. However, the benefit is that the bad moments are shortlived as the next day is completely new to David.

“I have to just laugh and go with the flow of the new day,” said Nancy. “If I were to hold a grudge, he would have no idea why, so it is easier to just keep things on the lighter side.” On Mondays, this attitude travels directly into her work life as she is able to put difficulties behind her to press through the day. “She can always see the sunshine even on a cloudy day. You would never know something was wrong based on her work ethic,” said Riddick. “She seems to bounce back very well and continues to be the go-to person for both Army and Air Force personnel matters on the installation.” For Nancy, the motivation of doing well at work is not only a daily goal, but also a way to give back to others who live with unique challenges like moving away from loved ones or losing comrades. “We’re like a family and families support each other,” said Nancy. “My motivation is giving support to all of the nation’s military, family members and veterans. If I see someone at the commissary having a bad day, I try to cheer them up with a smile, or by assisting them. I have bad days too though were I may not smile, but if someone smiles at me or a gate guard tells me, ‘have a blessed day,’ it turns everything around.”

June 24, 2016 U.S. Air Force Col. Caroline Miller, 633rd Air Base Wing commander, speaks to members of the National Exchange Club during the Freedom Shrine dedication ceremony at Langley Air Force Base, Virginia, June 14, 2016.

Langley PDC receives historical Freedom Shrine The National Exchange Club dedicated a Freedom Shrine during a ceremony at Langley Air Force Base, Virginia, June 14, 2016.

By Staff Sgt. Teresa J. Cleveland

633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS

The National Exchange Club dedicated a Freedom Shrine during a ceremony at the Professional Development Center here, June 14. Eleven local exchange clubs worked together to bring replicas of more than 30 important national documents to Airman Leadership School students. “We are extremely grateful to the exchange clubs for putting this together for our students,” said Master Sgt. Bryan Beers, ALS commandant. “We have over 2000 students a year come through this schoolhouse so everyone across all five wings on the installation are able to see a piece of American history and they’re able to get that historical focus as they move on to become supervisors.” Members of the 11 local exchange clubs volunteered their personal time to assemble the documents on backgrounds and install all of the documents on the wall. “What better place than to have [a Freedom Shrine] than at the school for the Airmen to become leaders,” said William Trimble, NEC Region 11 vice president. “Our freedom was earned at great cost by thousands of people over a span of hundreds of years. That is why the NEC thinks the Freedom Shrine is much more than just documents hanging in neat rows.” The freedom shrine originated with the freedom train that toured the nation

U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Teresa J. Cleveland

in 1947, carrying an exhibit of historical documents. The shrine serves as an education tool in schools and as a motivational display in public arenas. The shrine includes copies of documents such as the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States and the Gettysburg Address. U.S. Air Force Col. Caroline Miller, 633rd Air Base Wing commander, said she believes the documents hold a message of leadership for students. “I think we should take a few minutes to read some of these documents that we did when we were going through school,” said Miller. “Now that we are all wearing the uniform and now that we do defend our freedom, it’ll probably mean a whole lot more to us today.”

Name: Staff Sgt. Nortaya Alexander Job Title: Headquarters Air Combat Command personnel technician Hometown: Salem, N.J. Award: Langley Chiefâ€™s Group Sharp Airman Award How did it feel to win this award: I was genuinely shocked. It feels really good to know that the job that you do day in and day out is appreciated and that people notice. It was a really good feeling. What advice would you give to other Airmen: Take pride in what you do and be happy. You never know how you may affect someone else. Hobbies: I enjoy reading and shopping, gardening and spending time with my son, husband, and dog. I also try to volunteer at least once a month. My two favorite places to volunteer are the USO and the Virginia Peninsula Food Bank. â€œSSgt Nortaya Alexander, is an amazingly sharp and productive leader [who] is consistently executing business beyond her scope of responsibility for a personalist in her grade in a base-level position,â€? said Chief Master Sgt. Henry Hayes, Air Combat Command Headquarters Squadron first sergeant. â€œIt is easy to overlook a quiet, productive professional, but it would be a travesty to do so in this case.â€?

USAF Hospital Langley: 1st active duty hospital with 3-D laparoscopic capability

U.S. Air Force Airmen assigned to the 633rd Medical Operations Squadron finish a surgery at Langley Air Force Base, Va., June 14, 2016.

By Staff Sgt. Ciara Gosier 633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS

USAF Hospital Langley is the first active duty military hospital in the U.S. to have a 3-D laparoscopic camera. The hospital is now able to perform between three and six surgeries per month using the new technology. The flexible camera, less than one-centimeter wide, is inserted through a one-centimeter port and gives surgeons the ability to see 100 degrees in all directions. Surgeons are able to see the anatomy of the surgical site via monitor, using 3-D glasses. “The new camera saves time because of the ability to look around with the flexible scope, which was once like working with one eye closed,” said U.S. Air Force Capt. Stuart Winkler, 633rd Medical Group obstetrician/gynecologist. “Having the 3-D ability lets us see using both eyes.” Not only is Langley’s hospital the first in the active duty military to receive the camera, but it is one of the firsts in the local area as well. Many members of the JBLE community may not be aware this less-invasive procedure is an option available to them. “Over half of the hysterectomy cases we perform at Langley don’t require advanced 3-D laparoscopic surgery,” said Winkler who is one of seven obstetricians/gynecologists at Langley. “But ultimately, for challenging surgeries, the 3-D system can improve patient care by giving the surgeon the tools to complete the case laparoscopically instead of converting to a larger open incision.” Tim Vincent, Olympus surgical endoscopy territory manager, said the device gives surgeons accuracy, speed and precision during surgical tasks such as dissection, grasping and suturing, when compared to the 2-D version. Patients’ recovery time is now lessened. For instance, while an open abdominal hysterectomy, requires a four to six week convalescent period, most laparoscopic patients can recover in two weeks. “This new technology avoids additional unnecessary trauma,” said Winkler. “Having this [at Langley] shows progress and dedication to lead the way in our community.”

The surgery was conducted using a new 3-D camera laparoscopically, which allows surgeons to increase accuracy and precision during procedures.

The 3-D technology is new in the operating rooms at Langley and gives surgeon a better view of what is happening surgically.

Keeping up with protocol By Airman 1st Class Kaylee Dubois 633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS

From dealing with the day-to-day logistics to interacting with foreign dignitaries, the work of a protocol Airman is never done. For U.S. Air Force Staff Sgts. Jaleesa Stalling and Jillian Hotham, their job as protocol non-commissioned officers with the Air Combat Command Headquarters Squadron is to help senior ranking officials get their jobs done by creating a distraction-free environment. “We allow the senior officials to focus on their specific mission and not all the little details associated with getting that mission accomplished,” said Hotham. “They don’t have to think about all of the logistics and can just focus on big picture policies and building relationships, while we are in the background facilitating the small details.” With a constant flow of visitors, Stalling, who was formally a fitness center personnel assigned to the 633rd Force Support Squadron, finds the diversity of each visit keeps her on her toes requiring her to rely on past experiences. “Flexibility is key in this job,” said Stalling. “There are a lot of things that will come up last minute and you just have to go with it.” As a special duty assignment, having flexibility is key for Airmen in protocol who have come from different work environments. Hotham, who was originally a 633rd Medical Support Squadron medical

logistics non-commissioned officer in charge of medical war reserve material, feels like the special duty assignment came at the right time in her career to have a chance to see a different side of the Air Force mission. “This job allows me to network with really interesting people who I would have never been able to interact with in the hospital,” said Hotham. “Having people that we meet eager to talk and give words of advice has been invaluable.” Hotham, who has been with protocol for three months, has been learning more about the job as each event occurs. “[Protocol] is a lot of learning as you go,” said Hotham. “It’s not solely relying on the Air Force Instructions but on the desires of the person visiting and understanding that the next visit will be totally different. You just have to get into that mindset.” With experience and skill, protocol officers have the ability to impact the mission with the events they coordinate. “[Protocol] may be in the background but we get to see our work unfold,” said Stalling. “For example, when policies come out or general’s come out smiling because they agreed on something, we had something to do with that.” From meeting visitors on the flight line to planning general’s retirements, Stalling feels that being in protocol provides a source for those who want to see how behind the scene efforts assist in accomplishing the bigger mission.
