Capt. David Kucirka, the intelligence officer for 2nd Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division, leads a group of Marines during a hike at the Marine Corps Mountain Warfare Training Center in Bridgeport, Calif. To gain an expeditionary mindset, the Marines and sailors of 2nd Battalion, 2nd Marines and Ragnarok Co., 2nd Marine Logistics Company, conducted a 10-day field exercise, which consisted of long-range day and night foot movement through extremely rugged terrain with drastic elevation changes and tested the Marines’ endurance.

Warlords attend Mountain Exercise Staff Sgt. Steve Cushman 2nd Marine Division

arly morning, near freezing temperatures and enormous mountains paint the landscape as Marines mill around their neatly staged packs ready for the day’s march. The order comes to “step-off ” and the Marines begin the hike, during which they will travel from just above 8,000 feet in elevation to approximately 11,000 feet within a distance of less than three miles. This was the first training event of Mountain Exercise for the Marines and sailors of 2nd Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division and consisted of a hike and training exercise without troops for the

battalion and company staff at the Marine Corps Mountain Warfare Training Center in Bridgeport, Calif., where the battalion is conducting the winter training package to gain experience in cold weather and mountainous terrain operations. The Warlords of 2nd Bn., 2nd Marines, were augmented by detachments from 2nd Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion and 1st Battalion, 10th Marine Regiment and were joined by Ragnarok Company, a composite unit sourced from 2nd Supply Battalion and other units within 2nd Marine Logistics Group. Air support was provided by the California Air National Guard, which allowed the Marines to train with each element of the Marine Air Ground Task Force.

“All of these units together, give the Marines a real sense for the MAGTF,” said Lt. Col. Joel Schmidt, the commanding officer for 2nd Bn., 2nd Marines. “The Marines are working on refining their squad through battalion level combat (standard operating procedures). The squads are working on their squad level core proficiency. Most importantly, the Marines are learning to have an expeditionary mindset.” To gain that expeditionary mindset the Marines and sailors of 2nd Battalion, 2nd Marines and Ragnarok Co., conducted a 10-day field exercise, which consisted of long-range day and night foot movement through extremely rugged terrain with drastic elevation changes and tested the Marines’ endurance, said Schmidt.

According to the Ragnarok Co., commander, Maj. Alfredo T. Romero II, his Marines have been training in support of 2nd Bn., 2nd Marines. “We’ve been providing food, water, fuel and transportation,” said Romero. “Our Marines have been putting into practice (reception, staging, onward movement and integration), which is one of the missions the Marines of Ragnarok Co., will be doing to support 2nd Bn., 2nd Marines, during exercise Cold Response.” The Warlords and its attached units are undergoing the winter package at MCMWTC to prepare for the upcoming bilateral NATO training exercise Cold Response, which will take place in March of 2014 in Norway.

Breaking records: 2nd MLG Marine sets new standard at Machine Gunner Course Lance Cpl. Shawn Valosin 2nd Marine Logistics Group

Marines wishing to attain the machine gunner specialty must learn nomenclature on weapon systems as well as disassemble and assemble the systems over the course of a few weeks. Each week is dedicated to a specific weapon system. Marines going through the machine gunner course at the Battle Skills Training School, however, only get a day and a half to become proficient with each system. Out of all the Marines who have gone through the course, one managed to stand out above his peers, breaking disassembly and assembly records and obtaining perfect scores on written exams. Pfc. Jonny Jai Bostok, a landing support specialist with Transportation Support Company, Combat Logistics Battalion 2, 2nd Marine Logistics Group, said he volunteered to go through the course after seeing a Marine firing a M2 .50-caliber machine gun at the Combined Arms Exercise aboard Twentynine Palms, Calif. “I was in a mine resistant ambush protected vehicle and a Marine must have fired 1,000 rounds through the machine gun and I thought it was awesome,” said Bostok. “I knew I wanted to go through the course here so I can be a gunner on future convoys.” Instructors at the course are excited about the exemplary performance Bostok has displayed. “As a private first class he has never touched a .50-caliber machine gun, or any machine gun, and for him to come and break disassembly records in a day and a half, where in (Military Occu-

Jeffrey Gause, the head machine gun instructor at BSTS. Gause credits Bostok’s success to previous Marines who have attended the

course and brought the information and skills they learned back to their unit. “We’ve had Marines from CLB-2 come through previous courses and what (Pfc. Bostok’s performance) shows is the information is being passed down to the junior Marines, and that’s what

we want them to do after this course,” said Gause. “Whether it is taking the information from this course and going back to their shops, or going to the armory and taking out crew-served weapons and passing down information to other Marines.”

Interactive financial workshop educates service members Lance Cpl. Andrea Ovalle

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

The John A. Lejeune Education Center aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune provides an interactive finance management workshop. This free class, open to everyone on base, educates service members and dependents on how to take control of their finances. The class covers the difference between saving and investing, Thrift Savings Plan breakdown, understanding the Leave and Earnings Statement form, realistic spending and completing a monthly spending plan worksheet. “I want to take control of my finances, I want to really look and see if I can set up a budget so I know

where all my money is going,” said Lance Cpl. Anthony Biggs, Maintenance Administration with Marine Aviation Logistics Squadron 29. The class commenced with a detailed explanation of military pay, benefits and why it is important to understand the LES. “Financial management is a part of a person’s life, so it needs to be learned as soon as it can,” said Lewis Summerville, financial specialist. During the review of the LES, the attendees paid close attention and had many questions regarding tax deductions on their pay. Everyone is encouraged to attend the financial management class and bring a copy of their LES for a visual understanding of the form, added Summerville.

“The breakdown of the LES, the explanation of each taxation rate, and how much money gets deducted each month, helped me understand how my finances work,” said Biggs. “All Marines should definitely have a spending plan. We never treat any budget as basic. This is follow-on training geared toward E-5 and below to focus on budgeting and setting up a spending plan,” said Summerville. “We get positive feedback all the time from service members saying they are doing much better.” For more information on financial services available or to set up an appointment, contact Lewis Summerville 451-3219 or at summervillel@ usmc-mccs.org.

Marines from II Marine Expeditionary Force, Special Operations Training Group at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune go over training techniques recently. Staff Sgt. Matthew Francis, the II MEF SOTG HRST lead instructor, wears the red helmet to distinguish himself from the students.

HRST Instructors set example, lead Marines by ropes Pfc. Tyler A. Andersen

II Marine Expeditionary Force

With critical eyes, Staff Sgt. Matthew Francis looks up at the MV-22B Osprey in the air carrying his Helicopter Rope Suspension Training students, Jan. 16. He knows when these Marines go back to their units, they will be responsible for the safety and training of their Marines. He and his instructors are evaluating the stringent application of techniques they taught the Marines from 3rd Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Regiment, II Marine Expeditionary Force. Francis is the HRST lead instructor with Special Operations Training Group, II MEF. The HRST instructors provide the Marine Corps with an impor-

tant capability, which has helped Marines operate effectively and quickly in any clime or place since 2008. The instructors are dedicated to teaching their students how to lead by the ropes and take charge of their Marines while in the air and get them to the ground in the most efficient way possible. Francis said time is of the essence when Marines are inserting into enemy territory. Every minor detail with this form of training must be checked and rechecked before Marines become certified HRST masters. “A lot of the time, we have to go into a hot zone and deploy troops from a hovering aircraft as fast as we can,” said Francis. “It’s a huge floating target for the enemy, so you want troops down

that line hitting the deck as fast as possible.” Many of the instructors come from an infantry background. They have experiences in combat and teach what they know in lifelike training scenarios. At the end of the day, they have the most knowledge and they know how to set their students up for success by relaying the importance of HRST, said Francis. “For a person to come here and be an instructor, you have to look at things from their side and you have to be able to coach them properly,” Francis said. The SOTG frequently trains crisis response teams, the reconnaissance community and Marines with Marine Corps Forces Special Operations Command. Marines are individually selected

from each unit based on the needs of the Marine Corps, according to Francis. To be eligible for the course and become an instructor, students have to be certified. Francis said it takes serious dedication and skill to show the leadership traits and trustworthiness the HRST instructors are looking for to make it to the finish line. Sgt. Ryan D. Adam, a HRST instructor, said the instructor under training will go through a series of classes, such as the basic instructor course, to ensure they have the ability to speak well and articulate the lesson thoroughly to the students. The HRST instructors have to make sure the IUT can correct someone, fix their deficiencies and make sure

their overall safety techniques meet their requirement. “At all times, danger is present in HRST training,” said Francis. “Week one is all about letting the students know the dangers of the course. It is high-risk training, and as a HRST instructor, trying to convey the reality of that is difficult.” According to Francis, like many things in the Marine Corps, there is only one aspect that makes his job as an instructor extremely rewarding. “Whether it’s HRST training, or teaching them basic infantry knowledge, knowing you have an influence on individuals in the operating forces and how they conduct business is the most rewarding thing anybody could ask for,” said Francis.

Col. Clifford J. Weinstein, the commanding officer of 10th Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division, presents the Fraternal Order of Saint Barbara award to Marines who have dedicated their lives to going above and beyond what it means to be an artilleryman during the Saint Barbara celebration at the New Bern Convention Center, N.C., recently.

10th Marines celebrate Saint Barbara’s Day Lance Cpl. Jose Mendez Jr. 2nd Marine Division

arines with 10th Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division, smiled, laughed and shared stories as they raised their beverages in a toast at the New Bern Convention Center to honor the patron saint of artillery, Saint Barbara, recently. The event brought together the newest members of the regiment to the most experienced artillerymen, as well as guests from within the artillery community to help build their unbreakable bond and passion for being artillerymen. According to legend, during the third century, Saint Barbara was a beautiful young virgin who died a violent death at the hand of her pagan father rather than denounce her belief in the Holy Trinity. After he tortured and beheaded St. Barbara, her cruel father was struck by lightning and consumed by fire. Because of her connection with lightning, people often call upon St. Barbara for protection against thunder, lightning, and accidents involving explosions or gunpowder. This is why artillerymen have an

annual event to celebrate and give their thanks to this patron saint. “It is an opportunity to get together and celebrate our heritage and history as an artillery community and have fun,” said Sgt. Maj. Dave Zhorne, the regimental sergeant major. The celebration consisted of awarding Marines with the Fraternal Order of Saint Barbara, presenting the wives with necklaces representing the Molly Pitcher Award, several humorous skits and videos displaying the fantasies artillerymen live and the mixing of the punch. Zhorne said the Fraternal Order of Saint Barbara is for Marines who have dedicated their life to going above and beyond what it means to be an artilleryman. He spent the first 18 years of his career as an artilleryman and has now been the sergeant major of the regiment for more than two years. Zhorne is also a member of the prestigious group “We are one of the few communities in the Marine Corps that celebrate our heritage,” added Zhorne. When the celebration came to an end, the Marines toasted to the United States of America, the Army and Navy, Marine Corps, artillerymen, and their patron Saint Barbara.

Expo offers education, career opportunities for service members Pfc. Jared Lingafelt

ervice members reaching the end of their activeduty contracts gathered to search for future careers and education opportunities at the National Vocational and Technical Career Hiring Exposition at Marston Pavilion aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, Jan. 22. The expo provides service members with options for a future in the civilian workforce after leaving the military. More than 45 employers and nine vocational education organizations from across the country, gathered to provide more than 480 service members a look at futures in vari-

ous career fields. The expo gave organizations and schools a chance to come aboard base and show service members and their families they want to hire veterans and use the skill sets the military has given them, said Janice Palmer, the administrative assistant to the branch manager at the education office, aboard Camp Lejeune. The expo is designed for service members with a year or less left on their contract who are looking for careers and jobs in the civilian workforce. The expo took a unique and straight forward approach to hiring veterans. In past hiring and career expos, educational representatives and companies were not required to bring a hiring representative with them to the event. To

Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society celebrates 110 years of service Lance Cpl. Justin A. Rodriguez Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

The Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society celebrated 110 years of service to military personnel with an anniversary event aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, Jan. 23. The mission of the organization is to assist service members with financial aid, education needs and much more. Since its inception in 1904, the private, non-profit, charitable organization has branched out to more than 250 offices throughout the world. The important tasks of the organization have been accomplished by more than 3,600 volunteers and employees. “If this organization wasn’t so impactful, it wouldn’t exist today,” said Jennifer Roby, chair of volunteers with the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society branch aboard base. “It’s all about giving people a voice who cannot voice their own opinion or problems. It’s about helping service members and their families out.” NMCRS does more than give financial assistance; it has provided food, shelter, vehicle repairs, payments, emergency transportation and much more since its inception. “The Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society has always met the standard of being ready when the nation is not,” said Col. James W. Clark, deputy commander of Camp Lejeune. “Since the inception of the program, it’s continued to evolve over time. It went from reacting to situations, to being proactive and doing things like helping our Marines and sailors with financial management, and loans. Those services help more than you can possibly imagine.” The branch aboard Camp Lejeune has been offering help to its service members since May 1942. In 2012, it provided $2.4 million dollars to service members in assistance with loans, educations and emergencies. “I can be a voice and advocate for service members and their families who sometimes cannot do that,” said Roby. “We advocate heavily for a service member and their family. Throughout the 110 years of service it’s untouchable. We’ve done much more than just loan people money in the century of service.” While giving back to service members, NMCRS requests service members also make a donation to support the assistance of others. From March to April every year, service members are given the opportunity to give back to others. “We’re grateful for everything the Navy Relief nurses do,” said Capt. David A. Lane, commanding officer of the Naval Hospital aboard base. “Having the option to get help or even have the reassurance knowing someone will give counseling or relief work is amazing.” For more information on the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society branch aboard base, call 451-5346.

help service members get straight to the point with the different companies, each employer and organization brought a hiring representative. This gave service members one on one time with the representatives who are directly involved in the hiring process, explained Palmer. “These companies are huge. They are coming out of California, Texas, New York, Wisconsin, and all over to hire service members, whether they want to stay local or relocate,” said Lee Tuthill, the transition assistant specialist at career assistance branch. Service members interacted with companies from across the country that otherwise would be almost unavailable to most active-duty service members in the community. “You usually have to

email most of these companies, so to be here and talk face to face with them is a huge benefit,” said Staff Sgt. Robert Miller, with Charlie Battery, 1st Battalion, 10th Marines. “If you are getting out in a year or less, you should be here networking and preparing for your future as a civilian,” said Tuthill. “Even though you can’t get hired right now, sometimes depending on what agencies you are going with, it could take up to a year to complete the hiring process.” One organization hired seven service members on the spot Wednesday at the expo. The service members hired by the organization will be starting work for their new employer within the next month. The next vocational career and hiring expo

Marines with 8th Engineer Support Battalion, 2nd Marine Logistics Group, work in unison to attach a layer of insulation to a Cape Carteret, N.C. home as part of a volunteer project with Habitat for Humanity International, Jan. 23. The Marines used this opportunity to expand on their skills as combat engineers and to give back to the community.

2nd MLG Marines give back to the community Lance Cpl. Shawn Valosin 2nd Marine Logistics Group

Ten Marines with Alpha Company, 8th Engineer Support Battalion, 2nd Marine Logistics Group, gathered in freezing temperatures before dawn, Jan. 23. While early mornings and cold weather have become commonplace during this time of year, this morning wasn’t the norm. These Marines weren’t gathering for physical training or going on a hike, they were going out to

help the local community. The Marines with Alpha Co., volunteered to assist Habitat for Humanity International with homes they are building. “We asked the Marines if they wanted to come out and help and we got a positive response,” said Gunnery Sgt. David Poole, the acting company first sergeant for Alpha Co., 8th ESB, 2nd MLG. “There’s a very large training value to this: They get time with the hammers and get to learn construction skills we could use (in a deployed environment)

to build structures for Marines to live in, and it helps enhance their construction skills all around.” While helping HFHI, Marines attached shingles to the roof, installed windows, and nailed tar paper and insulation to the house. They plan to attach vinyl siding the next time they’re on site, and anything else they can get their hands on. “I absolutely love it,” said Cpl. Ivy Klawitter, a fire team leader with Alpha Co. “It gives me a chance to come out every once in a while and swing a hammer

and do something good.” The Marines who volunteered said it felt good to give back to the community, and they liked being able to learn new skills while building on the skills they had already been taught in their military occupational specialty school. “I get to learn something new almost every time I come out here,” said Klawitter. “It’s a little different than just building structures in a deployed environment; you get to put on vinyl and windows instead of screens with a wood flap over it.”

In one month, we were using 20 individual’s farms and cabins, because the communities believe and fully support what we’re doing.” The incredible results from the program do not come from pestering questions or post-deployment assessments; it comes from brutal honesty.” “I just tell them what I’ve been through and then they inherently start sharing their story. By the end of the trip we have identified what they’re going through and at that point I can tell that individual what different routes of counseling are available,” said Stuckey. “So I created a network of like-minded individuals who are going through similar issues due to combat related stress that now have direction on how they can get help.” Active-duty service members and veterans can reach out to A HERO foundation’s website or be recommended by commands at aherousa.com or reach Capt. Stuckey at aherostuckey@gmail.com. “Military leadership across the board is what makes the A HERO foundation successful,” said Stuckey. “The individual’s leadership can go to the website, recommend these people for a trip, and we can help them and report back recommending specific counseling for the individual. “So if we have command involvement we will identify these people before they commit the ultimate mistake in life. I think the more proactive we are as leaders and the more involved we are will help identify the problem.” A HERO foundation at this time holds one event

The America’s Heroes Enjoying Recreation Outdoors Foundation provides fellowship and mentoring opportunities through outdoor recreational activities. The foundation provides a supportive environment enabling veterans to continue the healing process, so they can focus on their future and reconcile the traumatic events of their past in a healthy and constructive environment. According to the National Veterans Foundation, current statistics reveal there are as many as 22 veteran suicides per day. This translates to approximately 8,030 a year, or more than 50,000 brave citizens who have taken their own lives since 2003. In 2009, after a couple of deployments and being injured by an improvised explosive device, Capt. Lee Stuckey, the commanding officer of Transportation and Support Company, Combat Logistics Battalion 2, 2nd Marine Logistics Group, almost took his own life. “It scared me because I was 30 years old and I didn’t know how it got to that point,” said Stuckey, executive director and founder of A HERO foundation. “Once I started talking about it, I came to the realization I was having issues from two years of combat. “I started getting help and then Marines started to come up to me and tell me they have problems. I realized I could be a person to go to because I understood what they were going through, since I was going through the same thing.” As a result, later that year, the non-profit organization called “A Hero foundation” was created. Military veterans and civilian volunteers came together with Stuckey to start the program. “The reactions and feedback you get from the service members when they reach out for help and experience one of the foundation’s trips is revitalizing,” said Stuckey. “You can see it on their face, after a three or four-day experience of spending time with other veterans, eating the best southern cooking you could ever get, and having a great weekend meeting like-minded individuals who are going through similar experiences. You can see the transformation when they start to understand, it’s an overwhelming experience when you can

every two months. Stuckey is currently building a handicap accessible lodge to accommodate 10 veterans, wounded warriors and active-duty service members. This will allow the program to hold events at any time a trip is needed. He is also working with Auburn University to have students in the nursing program spend time with each veteran with post-traumatic stress syndrome, they will receive two college credits in helping identify the signs and symptoms. A hundred percent of donations to the A HERO foundation go to supporting veterans. It’s a volunteer organization and there are no salary costs. To donate, sponsor a veteran or even suggest help, contact information is available at www.aherousa.com.

Melissa Hayden, a world famous ballerina, once said “Learning to dance gives you the greatest freedom of all: to express with your whole self the person you are.” It is those principals and ideals that Danielle Tisdale, director and lead instructor at Dance With Me Academy at Tarawa Terrace and Midway Park Community Centers, aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, hopes to impress upon young dance students. “(Our goal is) to spread the love of movement, freedom of expression, passion for the arts and a healthy lifestyle.” said Tisdale. According to Tisdale, dance offers physical, mental and social benefits. Physical development is promoted through the range of motion, coordination, strength and endurance required to participate. This is accomplished through movement patterns that teach coordination and kinesthetic memory, according to Tisdale. see dance 3b

Strengthen and tone:

Exercising your legs for overall health

Focus on

Quick Health Tips

Fitness with Desiree Nelson

any people focus more on strength training their upper body rather than their legs. While it’s important to work your arms, chest, shoulders, back and core, a strong base, which starts in your legs, may be the most important part. Leg exercise routines are not just about having killer thighs, working your legs will facilitate building the rest of your body – more so than if you just do upper body workouts alone. According to a 2013 article written by personal trainer Michael Mahony, training your legs can translate to faster running times and higher jumps. You’ll also build strong knee, hip and ankle joints while leg training, reducing your risk of injury. In addition, weightbearing exercises and resistance

training are crucial components in the prevention and management of osteoporosis and arthritis. Furthermore, training your legs, particularly with multi-joint compound exercises like the lunge and bicep curl, burns a higher number of calories than easier upper-body moves such as triceps press or lateral raises. This leads to increased fat loss, which is also partly caused by the release of hormones you get when training legs. Your leg muscles are so large that this hormonal response can even help you build upper-body muscle mass, reports Norwegian sports scientists at Lillehammer University College. Your legs are your bodies power house. Investing time into training them will improve the stability and strength of your entire body.

Wear an activity tracker: Studies show that people who wear a device that tracks the number of steps they’ve taken each day get moving more than those who don’t. Berries: Top pancakes or waffles with a half cup of mashed raspberries to get more than 20 percent of your daily vitamin C needs. Snack Smarter: Research suggests that eating about three meals a day with two or three snacks in between can make your metabolism more efficient. Choose snacks that have roughly 100 to 200 calories and contain a healthy balance of carbohydrates, fats, and protein.

to stronger legs 1

Goblet squat Invented by renowned strength coach and trainer Dan John and named after the position in which the weight is held, the goblet squat is one of the most foolproof ways to learn and reinforce the basic squatting movement pattern. Unlike most exercises, this one is more difficult to execute incorrectly. Few exercises work as many muscles as the squat, so it’s an excellent multi-purpose activity useful for toning and tightening not only your legs but your abs and glutes as well. Hold a dumbbell vertically next to your chest, with both hands cupping the dumbbell head. Engage your abs, and lower your body as far as you can by pushing your hips back and bending your knees. Pause, then push yourself back to the starting position.

Jan. 31, 1920, Joe Malone, one of the premiere players in the early days of the NHL, scored seven goals for the Quebec Bulldogs against Toronto, although this wasn’t the first time. Before the Bulldogs joined the NHL he reportedly scored nine goals in 1913.

The United States Tennis Association notes that lunges maximize the use of strength, as well as balance and coordination needs of certain athletes. And according to ExRx.net, the lunge also develops the quadriceps, which is the collection of muscles at the front of your thighs, your gluteus maximus, or buttocks, and your soleus, one of the muscles in your calves, making it an allaround leg toning and slimming powerhouse exercise. Unlike leg presses or leg extensions performed on a weight-training machine, dumbbell lunges require an added element of balance and coordination, making you work harder. Holding dumbbells at your sides, step your left foot forward and bend your knees until your left thigh is nearly parallel to the floor. As you lunge, curl the weights in front of your chest, palms up. Reverse to return to start, then repeat with the right leg. Do 15 to 20 reps per leg.

A study in the American Journal of Sports Medicine found that 70 percent of athletes with reoccurring hamstring injuries had muscle imbalances between their quads and hamstrings. The ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) relies on the hamstrings to stabilize the knees. By strength training your hamstrings you can prevent injury. Stand with arms lifted in front of you, one knee slightly bent and the other knee behind you at a 90-degree angle. With your toes pointed, lower the leg so that your toe touches the floor, then come back to the 90-degree angle. Repeat 20 times. Break momentarily and repeat 20 more times, with your foot flexed. Then repeat on the opposite leg.

The Globe, Camp Lejeune, N.C. Dance from 1b “Dancing utilizes the entire body and is an excellent form of exercise for total body fitness,” said Tisdale. “Young children are naturally active, but dance offers an avenue to expand movement possibilities and skills.” Dance promotes psychological health and maturity as well. According to Tisdale, children enjoy the opportunity to express their emotions and become aware of themselves and others through creative movement. “A pre-school child enters a dance class or classroom with a history of emotional experiences,” said Tisdale. “Movement within a class offers a structured outlet for physical release while gaining awareness and appreciation of oneself and others.”

According to Kenedy-center.org, dance lessons can encourage children to foster a more positive attitude and explore their own self-expression, which can be particularly beneficial for children who are physically or mentally impaired or those attempting to deal with significant emotional problems. “It is so much fun for me and my daughter,” said Emily Ramirez “I can already see her learning how to follow instruction, be more patient and work with other kids.” In addition, dancing is also a highly social activity. According to the National Dance Education Organization, “dance lessons can help children improve their social and communication skills, learn how to work as part of a team, develop a greater sense of trust and cooperation and make new friends.”

If your child is shy, enrolling them in dance can encourage them to reach out to other children their age and help to reduce anxiety about new people or places. The National Dance Education Organization also suggests dance can help to alleviate fears related to performing in front of an audience. Tisdale also notes that dance aids cognitive and educational development, stating “(dance, teaches) infants, children and ultimately adults to function in and understand the world around them.” For parents with young boys interested in dance, Tisdale added, “We have had many males enrolled over the years. Boys enjoy dancing as much as girls (and) it helps with discipline, agility, coordination and flexibility; all skills that could later benefit them in sports

and life.” “Dance With Me Academy is such a wonderful program,” said Alicia Ratcliff “Not only does my daughter enjoy going, but it is so nice watching her.” Classes are held Mondays and Wednesdays at Midway Park Community Center and Tuesdays at Tarawa Terrace Community Center, aboard Camp Lejeune. Registration is ongoing. Cost varies depending on class selection. “(The) classes are fun, but structured, and children will take away great technique and love of the activity,” added Tisdale. For more information or to enroll in classes, visit www.mccslejeune.com/ community or call 450-1687 or 4511807.

Did you know...? • A world record for the longest conga dance line was set by 119,986 people in Miami in 1988. • Dancers have better than average peripheral vision. Head angles are widely used in dance, so dancers have to use their eyes if they want to look to the side, without turning their heads. • One tutu requires 60-90 hours of labor, over 100 yards of ruffle and can cost up to $2,000. • Most ballerinas wear out 2-3 pairs of pointe shoes a week. • Dancers are known to be disciplined, focused and are high achievers who tend to be successful students as well as hard workers.

Shorin-ryu karate teaches kids discipline, control Desiree Nelson Sports editor

n a world that seems to glorify violence in everything from video games to movies, the idea of enrolling your kids in karate classes may not seem like a good one. While martial arts inspired films are typically filled to the brim with violent behavior, you may be surprised to learn karate is actually very beneficial to kids. Shorin-ryu, a style of karate, teaches students more than kicks, punches and blocking maneuvers. According to Trisha Klug, Shorin-ryu teacher, â€œItâ€™s (also) a great tool as far as teaching respect, discipline and coordination and itâ€™s a great way to instill selfesteem at a young age.â€? Karate classes have also proven to be an excellent way to boost socialization skills, encourage physical activity, improve listening skills, and develop teamwork skills. The sport has demonstrated great success for parents whose children have attentiondeficit/hyperactivity disorder because the self-control and concentration learned in karate are exactly the skills underdeveloped in ADHD kids, according to the American Academy of Pediatricsâ€™ Committee on Sports Medicine and Fitness. Furthermore, a 2010 research project conducted by the University of Wisconsin physical therapy department demonstrated the benefits of martial

arts on children with Autism. Essentially the children came out of their shells and grew more socially assertive and cooperative, exhibiting better balance and motor coordination and improved eye contact. According Shelly Altizer who recently enrolled her 4-year-old son Jackson Altizer in Shorin-ryu karate class at the Tarawa Terrace Community Center aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, â€œeach class teaches a different lesson. One class teaches coordination, another focuses on control. Itâ€™s just really good for him at this age and its great social interaction.â€? After attending only two classes, Altizer has already noticed a difference in her son. â€œHe seems more excited about things and looks forward to the classes,â€? she said. â€œHe retains the information well and Iâ€™ve already noticed a difference in his motor skills and coordination.â€? Altizer plans to continue enrolling Jackson in Shorin-ryu. She looks forward to seeing other skills develop throughout the teachings. Shorin-ryu is a very old and traditional style of karate. Originating in Okinawa, Japan.The style is generally characterized by natural breathing, stances, circular, fluid movements and flexible positions rather than direct movements. Classes are held Mondays and Wednesdays beginning at 5:45 p.m. For more information on Shorin-ryu karate classes visit www.mccslejeune.

The study concluded the death rate for golfers is 40 percent lower than of other people of the same sex, age and socioeconomic status. This equates to a 5-year increase in life expectancy for

The Globe, Camp Lejeune, N.C. regular golfers. In addition to healthy benefits, at the end of the course participants should expect to have the know-how and confidence to play 18 holes on their own, according to Johnson. “If you’re looking to get into golf this is a great opportunity,” said Johnson. “It’s a low-cost class, taught by a PGA licensed professional, designed to get individuals involved in the game.” The cost of the class is $59 per person, per 5-week course. Equipment is available on-site at no additional charge. Paradise Point Golf Course

was designed by George Cobb, a world renowned golf architect and former Marine. Paradise Point has two golf courses, the Scarlet and the Gold. Two driving ranges, one green grass and the other covered with 20 bays, are also available, as well as three putting greens and a practice field. Private lessons are also available for all skill levels, from the beginner who wants to learn the basics of golf to the experienced player who wants to hone his or her skills Photo by Lance Cpl.

Trifecta races offer challenges, rewards for runners Pfc. Jared Lingafelt

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune

ervice members and their families will have the opportunity to compete in a series of three races that take each participant through various obstacles and terrain aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune. The Semper Fit Grand Prix series consists of the X-treme Endurance Challenge 10K, St. Paddyâ€™s Engineer Challenge 5 mile run and the MARSOC Mud, Sweat and Tears 5 mile run. The X-treme Endurance Challenge 10k, includes a variety of obstacles aboard at Camp Devil Dog. Participants will be forced to navigate the terrain and other obstacles such as ropes, logs, dirt trails and other challenging features. The St. Paddyâ€™s Engineer Challenge 5 mile is a grueling off-road course that

not only challenges the runnersâ€™ physical stamina, but their mental determination. The course includes mud pits, creeks and manmade obstacles such as walls and ropes. The MARSOC Mud Sweat and Tears 5 mile run will test every patron physically and mentally, and will require participants to push themselves to the limit more than once. Mud pits, mud hills, water, fallen trees, ropes, forest terrain and other obstacles will challenge every participant. â€œEach course offers a different challenge. Itâ€™s a chance for people to see the different areas of the base and to actually compete and see what our active duty personnel endure and go through at these locations,â€? said Dennis Yeddo, the fitness facilities manager aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune. The Grand Prix races are available to service members, families and civilians.

The competitions are designed for people at all fitness levels and age groups, that wish to push themselves to the limit. â€œEach race is a great opportunity to promote and enhance fitness in the local community and provides a fun, healthy and challenging experience for competitors of all age and skill levels,â€? said Yeddo. Registration is available online at www.active.com or at the Wallace Creek Fitness Center. Participants can register until the day of the event. Patrons are required to sign up for each race individually. Every participant that finishes all three challenges will receive a trifecta t-shirt and a finisher medal.

‘Grudge Match’ a sports comedy; ‘August: Osage County’ a dark, depressing melodrama in fighting shape, and if they survive the excessive training, they may actually live to fight again. Kim Basinger (“Charlie St. Cloud,” “The Informers”) co-stars as Sally Rose who is romantically involved with both of the boxers. Also appearing are Alan Arkin (“Argo,” “Little Miss Sunshine”) as Louis “Lightning” Conlon, Razor’s aging manager/trainer; John Berntahl (“Snitch”) as BJ; LL Cool J (TVs “NCIS Los Angeles”) as Frankie Brite; comedian Rich Little as the boxing announcer; and introducing Ireland Baldwin, (daughter of Kim Basinger), as the young Sally. Mike Tyson and Evander Hollyfield can be seen in cameo roles. Director Peter Segal (“Get Smart,” “The Longest Yard,” “50 First Dates,” “Anger Management”) gathered the award-winning movie legends for this final match. “Grudge Match” is a sports comedy about two aging boxers who step back into the ring for one last bout. A little disappointing when this film could have been a contender.

Now playing at Camp Lejeune and Midway Park “GRUDGE MATCH” (PG-13) “Grudge Match” is a tale about a pair of retired boxing rivals who sign up for a rematch. Sylvester Stallone (“Escape Plan,” “Bullets to the Head,” “The Expendables”) stars as Henry “Razor” Sharp. Robert De Niro (“Last Vegas,” “The Family,” “Killing Season”) stars as Billy “The Kid” McDonnen. The two are local Pittsburgh aging, out-of-shape, retired fighters whose fierce rivalry put them in the national spotlight. They have an unsettled 30 year grudge. Each has scored a victory against the other during their heyday. But in 1983, on the eve of their decisive third match, Razor suddenly announces his retirement. Thirty years later, boxing promoter Dante Slate, Jr., played by Kevin Hart (“This is the End, ”Think Like a Man”), is seeing big dollar signs and makes them an offer that coaxes the aging boxing rivals out of retirement to fight one final bout. However, on their first encounter in decades, the long lingering feud between the two boxers erupts into a sudden social media frenzy that transforms their local grudge match into a must see HBO event, a huge televised rematch 30 years after their last bout. The two old timers quickly realize they are not

Now playing at Carmike 16 and Patriot Theater 12 in Jacksonville “AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY” (R) “August: Osage County” is a drama about a seriously dysfunctional Oklahoma family. The film takes a look at

the lives of the strong-willed women of the Weston family, whose path have diverged until a family crisis brings them back to the Midwest house they grew up in, and to the dysfunctional woman who raised them. A death in the family leads to an impromptu reunion of the seriously troubled crazy clan with estranged couples, emotional individuals, and a pill-popping matriarch. Meryl Streep (“Hope Springs,” “The Iron Lady,” “Julie & Julia”) stars as Violet, the vicious, acid-tonged, drug-addicted matriarch of the Weston clan who is battling mouth cancer. Sam Shepard (“Mud”) plays Beverly Weston, the Weston clan’s patriarch whose disappearance bring his fractured family back for a few fraught days to their Victorian tidewater home in rural Oklahoma.

most twisted and epic family dinner ever and that can be just as harrowing in its own way. The movie is packed with talented award winners who do their utmost to bring this black-as-coal comedy to the big screen with the help of producers George Clooney and Harvey Weinstein. Musician King of Leon wrote a song specifically for the movie, which also features Adam Taylor, Mateo Messina, and music by Gustavo Santaolalla. “August: Osage County” is a dark, depressing and deeply touching melodrama with an enormous talented ensemble cast who all shine in their individual roles. A highly emotional and compelling film that at times is difficult to watch - it deserves every accolade and award coming its way.

the glitter and point out new ideas. “The cold weather has been keeping us inside lately and this was a good way to get out of the house,” said Samantha Heidman, mother and military spouse. After pasting tons of glitter onto pages, Pittman brought out another surprise craft. He brought out pre-cut valentine hearts for each child to create a card for someone special. In light of the holiday coming up, it was a chance for the children to create homemade cards. For children who love to participate in crafts, Craft Day is the perfect opportunity for them to interact with others. The participants showed off their pictures and cards covered in glitter, as proud parents also interacted with one another. “It gets her and I out to meet new people and get involved,” said Kelly Wood, mother and military spouse. As a pile of glitter grew on the floor of the community center, children worked to create new crafts with cards, snow and “magic” pencils. “It’s always just fun to see the parents and kids having fun and enjoying themPhoto by Ashley Torres selves,” said Pittman.

Children and parents gathered for the monthly Preschool Craft Day at Tarawa Terrace Community Center aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, Monday. The Harriott B. Smith Library hosts the monthly event with themed crafts for children to use their imaginations. This event was moved from the library due to recent closings and the staff hopes to have it return in April. Parents gathered around one another while their children eagerly worked on their winter and valentine themed crafts. “When I came aboard, the first thing I said I wanted to do was (to have) kids use their imagination instead of following the text book,” said Sean Pittman, library technician. In highlight of the winter season, children created winter themed pictures in a flurry of white glitter and glue. Children used their imagination as they glued unicorns, dragons, castles and more onto their winter wonderland pictures. They used “magic” pencils to create rainbow art as they drew along the special paper. Parents helped sprinkle on

inosaurs roared through the Marine Corps Base Camp Johnson Library as dozens of Marines, sailors, spouses and children enjoyed the prehistoric themed Sundaes on Sunday event. The monthly themed event incorporates storytelling, arts and crafts, quiet reading time and best of all, ice cream, according to Crystal Dean, library technician for the Camp Johnson Library. “This event has been going on for years so the postings on base and word of mouth are great ways to keep this event going for years to come,” said Dean. “It gives the families a place to come on Sunday afternoon and gives the Marines and sailors something to do as well.” The event is open to all military personnel and their families, but the story time and crafts are more geared toward children under the age of 12, added Dean. “We were in the other part of the library studying when we were asked if we wanted to participate and get some

ice cream,” said Seaman Apprentice Bryce Lewis, student at Field Medical Training Battalion. “It’s a great environment. People can come to the library to study or check out a book and best of all they can get ice cream at no cost to them,” added Lewis. According to Dean, the theme changes monthly to keep the story time interactive and interesting. February’s event will be Olympic themed to coincide with the winter games, she added. Katherine Walker, military spouse, frequently brings her family to Sundaes on Sunday because she likes supporting events the Marine Corps Community Services offer. “This is an amazing benefit of military living,” said Walker. “It’s completely free and creates great exposure to many different things for the children.” The next Sundaes on Sunday event will take place on Feb. 23 at 2 p.m. All families and students are encouraged to come. For more information on the Sundaes on Sunday events visit www. mccslejeune.com/libraries or call the Camp Johnson Library at 450-0844.

Mess halls aboard base hold chili cook-off lance cpl. Justin a. RodRiguez

marine Corps base Camp lejeune

On one of the coldest days of the year, mess hall employees and service members gathered for the Mess Hall Chili CookOff aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, Friday. Chefs from seven mess halls aboard the base prepared their best chili for a taste test allowing patrons to sample their chili creations and vote for their favorite. “We plan on having the cook-off annually,” said Gary L. Walls, general manager of Mess Hall 227 aboard base. “When we started planning it, we thought it would be a good way to bring our staff together and build some team spirit, all while competing against each other. There was a lot of planning involved, but I’m glad to see it finally come together.” The seven participating mess halls were given the opportunity to set up their own table with designs and style to lure patrons to their station. “The event has been designed

to display novelty and flair in the mess halls,” said Barry Lee, district manager of mess halls aboard base. “It’s supposed to create levity and excitement.” While creating their own personal chili recipe, each mess hall team was responsible for noting nutritional statistics, recipe ingredients and quantity. “When I walked into the mess hall I was not expecting to see something like this going on,” said Lance Cpl. Shane P. Korthas, an intelligence specialist with 2nd Intelligence Battalion. “All the staff workers did a fantastic job. I’m sure events like this not only raise their morale and build team spirit within the kitchens, but it also shows the Marines they care for us and want us to have a great experience when walking into any mess hall. They all did a great job of putting it together.” When the event came to a close, Mess Hall 303 proved to have the best chili and was named chili champs. The winning mess hall is slated to get home-court advantage during the next chili cook-off next year, said Walls.

chocolate from 1C to raise over $400,000 for local charities. Twelve years ago, the now late John Green envisioned an idea to bring his love for chocolate and nonprofit organizations together at an event that would allow them to work together and raise funds, the Chocolate Festival made that possible. “John Green was told constantly it wouldn’t work and here we are today in our twelfth year,” said Hailey. Inspired by the ever popular movie “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory,” patrons can purchase a festival chocolate bar to see if they won a golden ticket. Whoever finds the lucky golden ticket in their candy bar receives a grand prize trip for four to Hershey Park in Pennsylvania. In addition, patrons will have the opportunity to enjoy the chocolate spa, complete with massages, facials, manicures and pedicures while indulging in chocolate. Children and adults of all ages can compete in pudding eating contests and the Chocolate Drop Bingo. There will also be chocolate-inspired jewelry including chocolate diamonds and pearls. “I like the excitement and fun of the Chocolate Festival and enjoy the chocolate of course,” said Bob Lowery, master of ceremonies for the pudding eating contests. “You can find any kind of chocolate there is during the festival.” For more information about the Chocolate Festival, visit carolinachocolatefestival.com.

Kalm set to retire after 39 years of civil service lance cpl. Justin a. RodRiguez marine Corps base Camp lejeune

There are employees aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune who do not wear the coveted Eagle, Globe and Anchor, but still uphold those core values. After 39 years of devoted civil service, Nancy C. Kalm, the assistant chief of staff, G-4, Marine Corps Installations East, will retire aboard base, Friday. Kalm began her journey working as a Department of Defense employee holding positions in contracting, systems analysis and accounting before being transferred to the Military Enlistment Processing command, Central Sector, Ft. Sheridan Ill. as a statistician. After being driven out of Illinois by her dislike of the snow, Kalm moved to Camp Lejeune, where she was hired as a Budget Clerk with the Communications and Electronic Division, Facilities Department. Since working aboard a Marine Corps installation, she discovered the difference between the Marine Corps and other services. “I think the Marine Corps is the greatest service,” said Kalm. “I’ve worked for the Army, Navy and Marine Corps and the environment aboard this base is different. I’ve gotten to know the individuals I’ve worked with over the years. The Marines and civilians I’ve worked with have been the best people I’ve ever encountered. I’m proud of the tradition and ethos of the

Marine Corps. The core values not only define Marines, they define me. I uphold those valued and I absolutely love what I do.” After marrying retired Lt. Col. Raymond W. Kalm Jr., she transferred to the Naval Air Station, Key West, Florida, but returned to Camp Lejeune in 1981 as a management analyst. Throughout her many years of service to the military, Kalm’s objectives have always remained the same; she hoped to learn as much as she could and logistically care for as many Marines as she could. She attended the Armed Forces Staff College in Norfolk, VA. in 1989 and was selected as the operations officer for the logistics department in 1992 aboard Camp Lejeune signifying the first time a civilian or female held the position. She was later promoted to the deputy assistant chief of staff logistics. The mission of the G-4 logistics section is to provide oversight, guidance and technical assistance services, material and transportation required for a deployed and garrison unit. In 2001, Kalm was selected as the Senior Executive Fellow and attended the two-month program at John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University in Cambridge, Ma. She was later promoted to the assistant chief of staff, business and logistics support department but the department, was later split into three and she became the assistant chief of staff

I’ve gotten some very good feedback from some of the Marines who’ve worked for me.” When looking back on her career, Kalm declared she would never ask for anything to be different. “I wouldn’t take it back or change anything for the world,” said Kalm. “This has truly been a career for me. I taught school before joining the civil service, and it’s a rewarding feeling because you can watch children learn and grow, but seeing what men and women are capable of accomplishing is amazing. I’ve watched Marines grow to do amazing things.” She prides herself on being able to mentor any base employee or Marine with her work ethic. “I have thoroughly enjoyed working for the Marine Corps and hopefully contributing a little bit,” said Kalm. She also added any successful employee should have a plan for their future.

“There are mornings where no one wants to wake up and go to work,” said Kalm. “But if you wake up every morning and aren’t happy with your job then you aren’t in the right profession. I’ve told my employees to have a five year plan, and attempt to reach their goals.” With hopes of earning her doctorate and writing a book, Kalm looks forward to retirement. Kalm has left her employees with the impression she will always be there for them. “She carries a certain pride with her,” said Brian J. Vincent, deputy assistant chief of staff G-4 and retired Col. “She’s achieved all of her goals throughout her career. Any base employee or even Marines should try to emulate her leadership skills and work ethic. She’s made it to the top. With everything she’s accomplished, I’m sure her great service to the Marine Corps will be the most memorable and important thing to her. She’s been one of the most dedicated and hardworking people I’ve ever met.” Kalm is slated to retire Friday at 9:00 at Marston Pavillion aboard base.

The Exceptional Family Member Program presented an open discussion for parents and Marines about the Individual Education Program during the EFMP Quarterly Forum aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, Thursday. Parents and educators gathered at the Paradise Point Officerâ€™s Club to talk about the different special education efforts and individualized education plans available in Camp Lejeune schools. Through the partnership between EFMP and IEP, schools are able to ease the minds of parents and present services for children with disabilities. â€œI like the collaboration between children with special needs and students who try to build a community to provide education for everyone,â€? said Mark Sanford, instructor systems specialist for Camp Lejeune schools. The EFMP is a mandatory process for all active-duty dependents who are in need of special medical care or enrollment in an IEP education plan. To be enrolled in the EFMP an individual must have a diagnosed physical, intellectual or emotional need that requires special medical or educational services. Through the program, case workers are available to assist families by guiding members through enrollment, connecting them to services, advocating for them as well as providing support through permanent change of station. Over the past year, the EFMP has helped many families across Camp Lejeune, according to Tracy Sosa, program manager for the EFMP. Enrollment in the program raised up 9 percent with 1,800 individuals who received services, and 450 families enrolled. The EFMP also provided support to 650 PCS families over the course of the year. â€œWe are going to ensure families get what they need,â€? said Sosa. â€œWe will provide a case manager, and help find resources and doctors. The program is out there for families to use and better their lives.â€? A child diagnosed with a special need can be recommended for the IEP to cre-

ate an individual education plan for that child. A referral can come from classrooms teachers, school administrators, student support teams, outside agencies, parents or from a review of records. Once a referral has been placed and with the consent of the parents, the case study committee evaluates and assesses the child suspected of disability. Eligibility is evaluated based on the data received during the assessment process. Once a child has been deemed in need of assistance, the team places the child in one of five eligibility categories: physical impairments, emotional impairments, communication impairments, learning impairments and developmental delay. While schools outside Camp Lejeune can provide IEP for multiple disability categories the DoDEAâ€™s policy does not qualify a child under multiple categories. The case study group places the child under the category that has the most impact on their performance, and services are provided for that need creating an individual education program. â€œMy son is a high functioning autistic,â€? said Harriet Williams, military spouse. â€œI didnâ€™t understand how to help him with some of the difficulties he was experiencing. I was really nervous for my first IEP meeting, but everyone at Johnson Primary School genuinely cared about my son. They are always encouraging him.â€? Williams recommended any parent looking for advice on how to help solve difficulties, to talk to the classroom teachers. The local district is only one of two school districts in the country with an autism specialist, according to Sanford. â€œWe always try to get the parents involved in the IEP meeting,â€? said Sanford. Over the past year the EFMP have hosted events for children and dependents to create a comfortable social environment. Through EFMP and the IEP program families can receive the assistance and services they need. For more information about EFMP or the IEP process, call 450-4131.
