1st Fighter Wing welcomes new commander By Airman Areca T. Wilson 633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
U.S. Air Force Col. Kevin A. Huyck assumed command of the 1st Fighter Wing from U.S. Air Force Col. Kevin J. Robbins during a change of command ceremony held at the 94th Aircraft Maintenance Unit hangar on Langley Air Force Base, Va., July 15. Huyck takes command of a wing rich in history, leading the men and women of both the 1st Operations and Maintenance Groups, including the famous “Fightin’ Eagles” of the 27th Fighter Squadron and the “Hat-in-the-Ring Gang” of the 94th Fighter Squadron. But Huyck is no stranger to the 1st Fighter Wing, having served at Langley in 1993 as part of the now inactive 71st Fighter Squadron. “It’s truly a great honor to be back in the 1st Fighter Wing,” he said. “To the men and women of the 1st Fighter Wing, your efforts and accomplishments are truly a testament to what you bring to the table. It’s why we can hold our adversaries’ vulnerabilities at risk and why the enemy is indeed scared.” Although the wing recently underwent challenges resulting from reduced flying hours in the fiscally-constrained environ-

ment, Huyck is committed to returning to combat-ready status. “My number one focus is mission readiness,” said Huyck. “My job as 1st Fighter Wing commander is to make sure the resources are there and we are ready when the call comes to provide air dominance anywhere in the world.” U.S. Air Force Maj. Gen. H.D. Polumbo
Jr., 9th Air Force commander, expressed his confidence in Huyck, having personally worked with him in Afghanistan. “Colonel Huyck brings a leadership style that enhances and promotes a commitment to service and he has an impressive track record of success,” Polumbo said. “You can be confident in your new commander because these qualities will be central in this
community and organization.” Huyck assumes command after serving as an executive officer to the deputy chief of staff for operations with Headquarters International Security Assistance Force in Kabul, Afghanistan. For Robbins, who commanded the 1st FW since May 2011, the change of command was his last before going into retirement.

Combat Air Forces units from multiple commands began flying again July 16 after many stopped in April due to sequestration spending cuts. The restored flying hour program represents congressional action on the $1.8 billion overseas contingency operations reprogramming action, which made peacetime dollars available, officials said, and the Air Force Council has approved the use of $423 million of those dollars to restore flying hours for affected units. The money reinstates critical training and test operations for the CAF fleet across the Air Force for the remainder of the fiscal year, which ends Sept. 30. This affects CAF units units assigned to Air
Combat Command, U.S. Air Forces Europe and Pacific Air Forces. For ACC, the restored flying hours will be allocated to combat aircraft and crews across the command’s operational and test units, including the Air Warfare Center’s Weapons School, Aggressors and the Thunderbirds aerial demonstration team. Previously announced decisions to cancel some major exercises and all Thunderbirds demonstrations for 2013 remain in effect, officials said. While the return to the skies means a return to crucial training and development for pilots, navigators, flight crews, mission crews and maintainers, the leader of the Air Force’s CAF fleet cautioned that this is the beginning of the process, not the end. “Since April, we’ve been in a precipitous decline with regard to combat readi-
ness,” said Air Force Gen. Mike Hostage, commander of Air Combat Command. “Returning to flying is an important first step, but what we have ahead of us is a measured climb to recovery. “Our country counts on the U.S. Air Force to be there when needed – in hours or days, not weeks or months,” Hostage continued. “A fire department doesn’t have time to ‘spin up’ when a fire breaks out, and we don’t know where or when the next crisis will break out that will require an immediate Air Force response.” The restoration of flying hours addresses only the next two and half months of flying, until fiscal year 2014 begins Oct. 1. “This decision gets us through the next several months but not the next several years,” Hostage said. “While this paints

a clearer picture for the remainder of [fiscal 2013], important questions remain about [fiscal 2014] and beyond. Budget uncertainly makes it difficult to determine whether we’ll be able to sustain a fully combat-ready force.” Additionally, Hostage noted the restoration comes at a cost to future capability, including reduced investment in the recapitalization and modernization of the combat fleet.

Maj. of the Army Raymond F. Chandler III. “Connecting the NCO Education System and promotions in a deliberate, continuous, sequential and progressive manner produces the best NCO Corps possible.

The Army will soon require noncommissioned officers to complete online training prior to promotion eligibility. Additionally, NCO schools will no longer be waived. Beginning Jan. 1, 2014, the Army will formally link completion of Structured Self Development, or SSD training, with professional military education courses for promotion eligibility. The changes are outlined in Army Directive 2013-15, dated July 1. Gerald Purcell, Army personnel policy integrator for NCO Professional Development, G-1, said the goal is to shape a new career timeline for NCOs that includes all the tenets of leader development, including education, training and experiences. “Over the last 10 years, we were really an Army out of balance in terms of those three tenets of developing leaders,” Purcell said. “The accumulation of experi-
velopment must not be overlooked. “We’ve really paid the price because while operational experience is great, it [alone] doesn’t make great leaders because you still need the education and the training to round it all out,” said Purcell. NCOs had been allowed to serve 30 years, and then would have to retire. Purcell said the NCO timeline was extended to 32 years to allow for the completion of those three tenets and to foster the development of the world’s most professional NCO corps. This timeline facilitates an environment where Army Professionals can meet the Army’s certification criteria of competence, character and commitment. The Army is an “up or out” organization, Purcell said. The policies support a fundamental baseline by which professionals remain technically and tactically proficient with continued opportunities for development and advancement. SEE TRAINING PAGE 11

The Defense Commissary Agency is testing a new Internet-ordering and curbside pickup service at Fort Lee as it seeks to provide what commissary customers want, and as it keeps pace with evolving shopping trends without driving up operating costs, according to Joseph H. Jeu, DeCA director and CEO. “Throughout its history, the commissary beneďŹ t has adapted to meet its customers’ needs, and we must not ignore the increasing use of online and smart phone technologies – what’s called e-commerce and m-commerce – as ways to provide the commissary beneďŹ t of the 21st century,â€? Jeu said. CLICK2GO is a straightforward process. Authorized commissary shoppers access the system from DeCA’s website. Customers may select from a wide variety of commissary products offered online based on
— Joseph H. Jeu DeCA director and CEO the store’s stock assortment; they shop online, check out and select an available pickup time. Customers go to the commissary curbside location at the designated pick-up time and pick up and pay for the products they ordered. CLICK2GO is being tested at Fort Lee ďŹ rst, followed later this year at two other stores – the commissaries at Travis Air Force Base, Calif., and Offutt Air Force Base, Neb., to iron out any operational glitches before the service is offered on a wider basis. “We’re looking at everything from customers’ expectations to our ability to deliver such a service efďŹ ciently and effectively,â€?
Jeu said. “This is all part of our commitment to understand our customers and deliver a 21st century commissary beneďŹ t.â€? Shoppers may access the agency’s website for detailed information about the program, but briey, here is how it works: â– An authorized commissary customer logs on to DeCA’s website, www.commissaries.com, any time day or night, authenticates his or her identity, and then chooses from among nearly 21,000 items. It’s the full assortment of grocery, or center-store items, and a reďŹ ned assortment of the top-selling, random-weight items, such as fresh meat, deli and bakery items, and fresh seafood. As the customer shops online, the virtual shopping basket is updated to reect the items and prices. â– At checkout, the customer selects a designated pickup time presented by the system. The pick-up time is at least four hours from the order time. â– Once the order has been received at the commissary, a fulďŹ llment worker will gather the items the customer has chosen in accordance to the scheduled pickup time. The items will be kept in a temperature-appro-
priate holding area and loaded into the customer’s vehicle upon arrival. â– The customer pays for the groceries at curbside – without having to leave the vehicle. The accepted forms of payment are credit cards, debit cards that processes like credit, and DeCA gift cards. â– While customers may order at any time, the days to pick up their orders are limited to weekdays, not weekends, during the store’s normal hours of operation. With the test, DeCA will assess e-commerce and evaluate customer usage, cost and impact on overall store operations and customer service, said Tracie Russ, director of DeCA’s business development directorate, which heads the test. DeCA will not charge a service fee for this beneďŹ t during the ďŹ rst year but may charge a fee in the future. “Determining all the nuances and costs of this way to provide the commissary beneďŹ t are major goals of our test,â€? Russ said. “During the test we’ll be learning and adapting as we go along – engaging our customers to help shape the military’s 21st century commissary beneďŹ t.â€?

According toTony Arroyo, Health andWellness Center exercise physiologist at Langley Air Force Base, weight lifting can be divided into three different categories: maximum strength, hypertrophy or endurance training.
Lifestyle fitness: Weight lifting and weight loss By Airman 1st Class Austin Harvill 633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
After properly setting up a diet and preparing for a workout, it is time to hit the gym and start building a better body. Tony Arroyo, Health and Wellness Center exercise physiologist at Langley Air Force Base, and Bob Ornelaz, the Fit-toWin instructor at Fort Eustis, provide the tools for anyone to build lean muscle and trim body fat. “Everyone is different when it comes to what a specific diet and exercise plan will do,” said Arroyo. “However, there are a few guidelines to building lean muscle mass and simultaneously losing fat.” Arroyo stressed the importance of weight lifting for both fat loss and muscle building, and explained how resistance can be used to burn fat, not just build muscle. Weight lifting can be divided into three different categories: maximum strength, hypertrophy or endurance training, said Arroyo. Power training is a variation of maximal strength training, however it utilizes slightly different exercises. Maximum strength is ideal for athletes wishing to increase their overall strength and pack on more lean muscle. Maxstrength workouts consist of four to six sets
“A lot of people think of running when they need to lose weight, but that just isn’t necessarily true. People can do interval training, cycling, swimming, rock climbing and whatever else to get the results they desire.” — Tony Arroyo exercise physiologist at Langley Air Force Base’s Health and Wellness Center
of one to five repetitions. Lifters should be lifting 85 to 100 percent of the one-repetition maximum in order to get the best benefit from these workouts, and they should rest three to five minutes between each set. Max strength lifting is great for muscle building, but Arroyo suggests it may not be for everyone. “Lifting extremely heavy weights can be dangerous for someone unfamiliar with workout, so I usually don’t recommend these workouts for a newer lifter,” said Arroyo. On the opposite end of the spectrum, endurance training utilizes lighter weights and more repetitions. A typical endurance-
focused workout consists of one to three sets of 12 to 25 repetitions each, said Arroyo. Athletes should lift around 40 to 70 percent of their one-repetition maximum and rest for 30 to 60 seconds. Endurance training benefits more cardio-centric athletes who typically exercise for an hour or more at any time. “Marathon runners can really benefit from these types of exercises,” said Arroyo. “Without weight training, they might experience more fatigue, not in their legs, but in their core and other parts of their body.” In addition to aiding runners, endurance training can help newer lifters get accustomed to different exercises and build a strong foundation for future weight lifting, said Arroyo. Hypertrophy training combines the two types of training into a more jack-of-alltrades routine. Hypertrophy routines consist of three to four sets of eight to 12 repetitions. Lifting about 70 to 85 percent of the one-repetition maximum yields the best results, and lifters should give themselves 45 to 90 seconds of rest. “Hypertrophy is great for athletes just looking for a good, all-around workout routine,” said Arroyo. “Combining a hypertrophy routine with a steady cardiovascular program can lead to a toned physique over time.”
Ornelaz explained the simplicity of cardiovascular strengthening exercises individuals can use to balance their musclebuilding routine. “Exercising for 20 minutes or more at 65 to 80 percent of your maximum heart rate will help build cardiovascular strength,” said Ornelaz. “This will also help you lose fat, improve lung capacity and make your entire cardiovascular system stronger, not just your heart.” Cardio exercises are numerous, and any exercise that brings the heart rate to the appropriate level counts as a cardio-intensive exercise. “A lot of people think of running when they need to lose weight,” said Arroyo. “But that just isn’t necessarily true. People can do interval training, cycling, swimming, rock climbing and whatever else to get the results they desire.” Arroyo recommends mixing up cardioinstensive workouts by switching equipment every so often. For instance, run for 10 minutes, cycle for another 10 and then end workouts with the rowing machines. Understanding the aspects of fitness can help anyone lead a healthier lifestyle. More so, adhering to fitness as a lifestyle provides Service members the tools most critical to success in every mission: themselves.

JBLE’s clubs offer variety of award-winning service By Airman 1st Class Victoria H. Taylor
Vianey Hernandez, right, Langley Club cook, prepares lunch for a customer at Langley Air Force Base, July 9. Since it first opened its doors in May 2011, the club has hosted more than 1,200 special functions.
633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
It may seem like learning how to salsa dance, laughing during a stand-up comedy show or enjoying southern cuisine are activities you have to travel far and wide to enjoy, but luckily for Joint Base LangleyEustis, Va. community members, these opportunities are at their doorstep. For award-winning service and superb entertainment, Service members do not need to look any further. Offering many different summer events and activities, JBLE clubs provide Service members and their families the chance to seize what the summer has to offer. The Langley Club is unique in that it services both enlisted and commissioned Service members. Since it first opened its doors in May 2011, the club has hosted more than 1,200 special functions spanning from retirement ceremonies, squadron parties and promotions to non-military events such as wed-

dings, anniversaries, birthdays and private holiday parties. Although private parties are popular events at the Langley Club, it also provides themed events open to everyone. Different festivities throughout the summer include Comedy Night, Boss and Buddy Night, and Soul Food Night.
“With our excellent staff and amazing atmosphere, we have a lot to work with to make our people happy,” said Ann Pabón, Langley Club manager. The club’s amenities include two full bars during evenings and lunch dining during weekdays. With so many events and options available, the Langley Club
was recognized for its service by winning best food service operations in Air Combat Command for 2011 and 2012. “ACC is a huge organization. To receive the award not only once, but twice, was a huge honor,” said Pabón. In addition to being known as the best in ACC, with more than 3,550 members, it is also known as the largest club in the command. Despite being so large, its members say the club still provides everyone with top-quality services. Being a regular at the Langley Club has its advantages and for club member Randy Elder, general contractor, the convenience of the club has always been a benefit to him. “I come [to the Langley Club] about three times a week,” said Elder. “The meals are nicely priced and the staff has always done an exceptional job. I’ve always really enjoyed myself here and that’s what keeps me coming back.” SEE CLUBS PAGE 11

TRAINING FROM PAGE 4 The directive says Soldiers should be considered for promotion when they achieve competency in their current rank and exhibit the potential to serve successfully at the next higher rank, which entails an increased level of responsibility. The areas Soldiers must excel in to advance include professional competence, team building, adaptability, lifelong learning and comprehensive fitness. Some of the requirements for advancement include: ■ Specialists and corporals must complete SSD-1 before they can be recommended (boarded) to sergeant. ■ Sergeants must complete the Warrior Leader Course before they can be recommended (boarded) to staff sergeant. ■ Staff sergeants must complete SSD-3 before they are eligible for consideration for sergeant first class. ■ Sergeants first class must complete SSD-4 before they are eligible for consideration for master sergeant. The directive states waivers for the Warrior Leader Course, known as WLC, will no longer allow sergeants to be considered for promotion. Soldiers who had been previously granted WLC waivers must graduate from the course no later than Sept. 30, 2014. Soldiers who are deployed when the changes go into effect, Jan. 1, will have up to 270 days after redeployment to complete the course. Reserve-component Soldiers will have up to 270 days after release from active duty to complete the WLC. The directive says Soldiers who do not complete the required WLC training will be removed from the promotion list for staff sergeant or reduced to sergeant.

CLUBS FROM PAGE 10 Service members can also take advantage of the Fort Eustis Club which has many different special events throughout the upcoming season, including Latin Night every Friday night, Father and Daughter Dances, and Big Band’s Night. The Fort Eustis Club was established in 1960 and serves active duty, retirees, family members and contractors. “The [Fort Eustis] club was established to promote and foster esprit de corps and enhance the morale and welfare of everyone who is welcome on post,” said Azeb Aweke, Fort Eustis Club manager. With the special-event office open seven days a week, the Fort Eustis Club offers many different amenities such as a lunch buffet Tuesday through Friday, giving units and other authorized organizations the ability to dine, socialize and relax in a morale-boosting atmosphere, said Aweke. Similar to the club on Langley, the Fort Eustis Club offers non-military event hosting, including weddings and receptions. Regardless of where Service members and their families may find themselves on JBLE, the clubs are a convenient place for the military community to unwind and enjoy summer activities.

UG 'HQWDO 6TXDGURQ FOLQLFF RIIHUV FURZQLQJ FDUH WR 6HUYLFH PHPEHUV By Airman 1st Class R. Alex Durbin 633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
Thirty-two. This is the average number of teeth each adult must take care of every morning and evening, spending more than 70 days maintaining and cleaning teeth in a lifetime. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Americans spend an average of $1.8 billion on toothpaste and $775 million on floss each year. With these statistics, dentistry is often perceived as primarily focused on teeth, but it is not limited strictly to this. Dentistry is the branch of medicine involved in the study, diagnosis, prevention and treatment of diseases, disorders and conditions of the mouth, maxillofacial area and adjacent structures. It studies these areas’ impact on the human body, and is widely considered necessary for complete overall health. To ensure each Airman is as healthy as possible and mission ready, the 633rd Dental Squadron clinic at Langley Air Force Base, Va., is there to help.
The squadron is comprised of four flights, totaling 25 dentists and 60 ancillary staff that provide a range of services, including general dentistry, prosthodontics, periodontics, orthodontics, endodontics and oral and maxillofacial surgery. “The clinic is here to provide dental care for our active-duty Airmen,” said U.S. Air Force Dr. (Col.) Donald Sedberry, 633rd Dental Squadron commander. “It is important to ensure our Airmen are ready to deploy because dental issues can take Airmen out of the fight – and possibly put them in harm’s way.” Although it may be easily overlooked, dental health plays a large role in a Service member’s health and career. According to the CDC, 23.7 percent of adults between the ages of 20 to 64 have untreated cavities. While most are avoidable, and the clinic recommends Service members brush and floss twice daily and decrease snacking and sipping acidic drinks such as energy drinks and soda. In case things go wrong, the clinic provides most care inhouse and does not refer patients to off-base care providers, saving them time and money, said Sedberry. The multiple specialties provide a unique setting for dental
technicians, t as they work in rotations to keep their skills sharp a learn a large selection of specialty care to assist the 3,100 paand ti tients the clinic sees monthly. “Langley is a large clinic, so technicians get exposed to differe areas,” said Tech. Sgt. Rudy Grajales, 633rd DS technician. ent “ “This rotation makes us versatile, and able to provide a contin nuity of care for our patients.” As part of an initiative to improve patient care, the clinic rec cently completed renovations, which included new patient r rooms and state-of-the-art tools, including silent electric hand t tools and dental lasers. The tools are aimed at increasing patient c comfort. The laser reduces post-surgery pain and healing time. “These renovations let us provide better care for our patients b offering a wide range of specialty care under one roof,” said by D (Col.) Thaddeus Chamberlain, 633rd DS deputy commandDr. e “There is nothing available in the private sector that we caner. n provide here at Langley.” not Along with the clinic’s renovations and efforts to streamliine and improve patient care, the clinic’s oral surgery section was w granted its own dedicated space in U.S. Air Force Hospi-
tal Langley last fall. The clinic boasts two oral and maxillofacial surgeons along with technicians who treat diseases, injuries and defects of the head, neck, face, jaw, and the hard and soft tissues of the mouth and face regions. Although the majority of cases surgeons see are wisdom tooth extractions or dental implants, the clinic is equipped to perform corrective jaw surgery, sleep apnea treatment and trauma care. “The hospital is making a great effort to ensure our surgeons have everything they need to properly care for our patients,” said Dr. (Lt. Col.) Marshall Humes, 633rd DS oral and maxillofacial surgeon. “Our equipment and rooms are designed specifically for patient safety – because that is our number one priority.” Humes said the oral surgeons benefit greatly by having the ability to take advantage of the hospital’s unique environment with fellow surgical and specialty care providers within arm’s reach. “It’s helpful to have the ability to walk down the hall to con-
sult my medical colleagues,” he said. “[The multispecialty clinic] affords medical professionals the ability to call on colleagues in other sub-specialties to provide personal, comprehensive care for each patient.” As well as providing care for patients, the clinic also serves as gateway to future Air Force dental-care providers, as it is one of only 13 squadrons Air Force-wide that has a residency program for dentists. The residency program is a one-year-long training process to give recently graduated dentists hands-on training in the multiple specialties the Langley clinic provides. Not only does the program provide new military dentists medical training, it teaches them what it means to be an Airman. “We train our residents not only in dentistry, but how to be an Air Force officer. Their time spent at Langley lays the ground work for their military and medical career,” said Dr. (Col.) Joseph Muhlbauer, 633rd DS dental residency flight commander. “In the long run, these residents will provide a greater skill set and improve the Air Force.”

The Armed Services Blood Program will host a blood drive July 23 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Langley Air Force Base Chapel Annex. The drive is open to all Service members, dependents, retirees and civilian employees. Donors can donate blood every 57 days, or every other month at the Langley installation blood drives. Donors must be at least 17 years of age and weigh at least 110 pounds. Before volunteering to donate, donors should be well rested, properly hydrated and have limited their sugar and caffeine intake. Those engaging in physical exercise should wait two hours before donating. Refreshments and appreciation gifts will be provided to donors at the drive. According to Ralph Peters, the ASBP drive coordinator, each donation can potentially save two to three lives. Thirty to 50
donations are typically required for trauma victims or combat casualties. The ASBP supports all active-duty personnel, both by shipping blood downrange, and locally by providing blood stores to U.S. Air Force Hospital Langley. “We know that it is a commitment of your time in attending, volunteering and returning to work. Thank you for your support,” Peters said. “Every volunteer and donor matters. Together, you are literally saving lives.” The Chapel Annex is located at 180 Dodd Blvd., on Langley. Walk-ins are welcome, but donors may also make an appointment to avoid waiting in line. To make an appointment, visit www.militarydonor.com and follow registration instructions. Print the confirmation page, bring it to the blood drive and show it to a technician. The program will host subsequent blood drives at the chapel annex each month through November.

MENTION THIS PUBLICATION FOR COMPLIMENTARY EXAM
The 633rd Air Base Wing Exercise Evaluation Team conducted a Major Accident Response Exercise to test the ability of emergency responders to react and recover from a nuclear power plant accident at Langley Air Force Base, July 16. The full-scale exercise tested the units’ ability to activate a point of distribution, dispense mass prophylaxis, attain 100 percent accountability of all Joint Base Langley-Eustis personnel, monitor radiation levels and make healthrisk recommendations in the wake of a nuclear power plant accident at the Surry Power Station in nearby Surry, Va. To effectively execute the exercise, players were asked to participate in different scenarios to test the units’ ability to respond. Simulated scenarios ranged from stolen medication to Service members experiencing psychological issues and heart attacks, allowing responders to practice how to handle incidents caused by a nuclear accident. Emergency services were tested on their ability to distribute potassium iodide, a medication acquired
through the Strategic National Stockpile. Use of potassium iodide can prevent absorption of radioactive iodide and may help prevent cancer and other diseases. “Our goal today is to dispense the mock medication to 400 people every hour,” said U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Paveena Posang, 633rd Medical Group delayed team alternate team chief. “If a situation like this were to happen, we are prepared to take action in a timely manner to protect personnel.” For Airman 1st Class Jessa Gatchalian, 633rd MDG pharmacy technician, exercises like the MARE put the possibility of real-world situations in perspective. “We are doing exactly what we would do if there were a real disaster,” said Gatchalian. “These scenarios and training exercises make me confident we can handle any situation and effectively do our job.”
