A summer of fun and sun at JBM-HH: Take the plunge

Ready to Splash into Summer? The DFMWR pool complex at Joint Base Myer-Henderson

Hall is ready for you to put on your swim gog-gles, lather up your sunscreen, and do your best cannonball. With plenty of special events, sea-

son pool passes, and daily fun, food, and drinks available, the pool is the perfect place to relax in the summer heat this year.

Get Your Seasonal Pool Pass

For maximum savings for the entire season,

consider getting an individual or family season-al pool pass. To get a season pool pass stop by the Patton

Hall Community Club and Conference Center - 5 Star Catering Office at Building 214 on Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall anytime between 10

a.m. and 1:00 p.m. Monday through Friday to fill out your application and pay for the season. You can also call the catering office directly

at (703) 524-0200 to get an application emailed to you. Seasonal pool passes are good from Me-morial Day Weekend through Labor Day Week-

end and cover special event weekends at no ad-ditional cost.

Prices for the 2022 season are as follows:

Single (1 person): $550.00

Single plus One: $650.00

Family Pass (up to 6 people): $750.00

If you are a frequent pool user, getting a sea-sonal pass can save you quite a bit of money.

Seasonal pool passes are valid every day that the pool is open, including special events.

See a “Dive-In Movie” this Summer

You may have been to a drive-in movie, but

have you ever seen a “dive-in movie?” The pool will host movies poolside in July and August. Bring your favorite inflatable float to lounge on

as you take in a movie on the big screen. These events are included for seasonal pass owners. All others pay an additional $3 for the movie.

4th of July Cookout

The pool is the perfect place to celebrate the

4th of July. With All-American lawn games, pool splashing, music, and food, you can get patriotic while still beating the sweltering July

heat. Don your most festive red, white, and blue swim gear to celebrate the Fourth!

Celebrate the End of the Season

The pool season will end Labor Day week-

end, but not without a special celebration. The “Back to School Plunge” event will bring mu-sic, games, food and fun to pool patrons all day

long. Enjoy some last-minute splashing, diving and cannonballs before the pool closes for the season.

Making the Most of the Pool and Outdoor

MWR Grill

The pool will be open from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily for daily pass patrons, season ticket hold-

ers and Fort Myer Swim Team members. The MWR Grill is available from 11 a.m. to 7:30

p.m. daily. Start your visit by entering the pool area through the bath house. You’ll be greeted by a

friendly staff and you are able to purchase a dai-ly swim pass if needed. Or just show an ID and continue to the MWR grill area if you are not

swimming and only there to partake in food and beverage.

Daily Pool Pass rates are as follows:

Single (1 person): $10.00 M-F / $12.00 Sat-Sun

Family (up to 6 people): $50.00 daily

It’s important to stay hydrated while out in the sun so patrons are allowed to bring their

own water in plastic water bottles. To keep the pool area safe, glass bottles are not permitted. Food and drinks, including burgers, hot dogs,

chicken, veggie burgers, chips, Gatorade, soda, beer, and wine are sold at the MWR Grill. Alcohol cannot be taken into the DFMWR

Pool Complex area and must be consumed only in the lawn area (Outside the DFMWR Pool Complex fence line) for maximum enjoyment.

Patrons are not permitted to bring in any outside food and drinks, other than water, to the DFMWR pool complex or MWR Grill area.

If you are looking for a season of fun in the sun, the Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall DFMWR Pool Complex is the perfect place for

you. With special events, convenient daily en-trance and season pass options, there is some-thing for everyone. All you have to do is perfect

your cannonball.

Commander’s reception reunites

public servants with base leadership

Members of the local community and

leaders from Joint Base Myer-Henderson

Hall had the opportunity to strengthen

their bonds June 1 at Patton Hall in one

of the first in-person meetings since the

COVID-19 pandemic began in early

2020.

The special reception, hosted by joint

base commander Col. David D. Bowling,

brought public servants together from

both on and off the base. The group so-

cialized for a couple hours and observed

a special presentation before attending

the evening’s performance of the Military

District of Washington’s Twilight Tattoo

on Summerall Field.

“Just having the opportunity to meet

people in person and meet folks who,

frankly, I haven’t met yet is really a

humbling experience,” Bowling said.

“One of the things, I think, that makes

our country so great is our military and

the people that we fight and defend this

nation for.”

Bowling expressed his appreciation for

“the folks at home,” such as first re-

sponders and local government employ-

ees who work together to take care of the

community while the military focuses on

its mission.

“When you serve in a position like

this, and you’re exposed to it, and you

really think about it, you think ‘Wow,

this really is a great country,’ because

everybody is doing their job,” he said.

“They’re

playing

their

role for

the bet-

terment

of the

team.

The

team in

this case

is the

United

States.”

Fol-

lowing

his re-

marks, a

special

presenta-

tion of a flag took place to represent the

Northern Virginia Region being named to

the 2022 Class of Great American De-

fense Communities in March by the As-

sociation of Defense Communities.

Libby Garvey, a member of the Ar-

lington County Board and the Northern

Virginia Regional Commission, echoed

Bowling’s sentiment that public service

unites the community as she stood in

front of the flag held by members of the

NVRC, to include director of military af-

fairs Peggy Tadej and volunteer William

Rowe.

“We at the Northern Virginia Regional

Commission were honored to receive

this, because a lot

of work has gone

into it,” she said,

describing listen-

ing sessions, as-

sociated learning

and a roadmap of

activities that

took place as part

of the effort to

innovate and pio-

neer new ways to

support service

members and

their families.

The

group’s sub-

mission fo-

cused on di-

versity, eq-

uity and inclusion. Their efforts stood

out, Garvey said, as the Northern Virgin-

ia Region is only the second community

in the state to re-

ceive the award

since the program

was launched by the

ADC in 2016.

“It’s great to see

how we could all

work together and

support each other,”

she said, noting that

now the entire com-

munity will reap the

benefits.

After its presen-

tation at JBM-HH,

the flag will travel

to different military

installations in the

region in celebra-

tion of the commu-

nities that support

military installa-

tions and have sus-

tained exceptional

commitment to im-

proving the lives of

service members,

veterans and their

families.

Transgender Soldier finds inclusion, support in Army

Spc. Antavius Matthews noticed at a young age that she was more in touch with

her feminine side than the other boys.

Matthews, who was assigned male at birth but identifies as a woman, said she

struggled to make sense of how she truly felt while growing up in a rough part of

Atlanta.

“I was confused at that time,” said Matthews, a supply specialist assigned to the

35th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion. “I was still trying to figure myself

out.”

She dressed in female clothing and braided her hair, a leap from the tough exte-

rior displayed by men in her neighborhood. There, random shootings were com-

mon, she said, and so was navigating past drug dealers on her way home from

school.

But it was in the halls of her high school where she faced the real challenges.

While teenagers normally look to find themselves during those years, she was fre-

quently teased as she tried to express herself.

“In school, I would hear remarks from males, calling me all types of names and

dragging me through the mud,” said Mat-

thews, now 23. “I learned not to react to it,

because you are what you answer to.”

Matthews grew thick skin and strived to

remain confident in herself. At 16, she came

out to her family. While the news initially

shocked her mother, Matthews said she has

since become one of her biggest supporters.

She said her mother, a single parent who

raised five children, is a determined woman

who has been a great role model.

“She gave us a lot of life lessons about

being yourself,” Matthews said, adding that

her mother also taught her to be independent.

Matthews is one of many LGBTQ Sol-

diers who have been able to openly serve

since 2011 after the repeal of the Defense

Department’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” poli-

cy.

Every June, the military recognizes its

LGBTQ personnel for their service in honor

of National Pride Month.

“If you’re fit and you’re qualified to serve,

and you can maintain the standards, you

should be allowed to serve,” Defense Secre-

tary Lloyd J. Austin III has previously said.

Serving with pride

In her senior year of high school, Mat-

thews decided to join the Army. She has

served four years and hopes to soon be pro-

moted to sergeant.

She said she enjoys her job as a unit sup-

ply specialist, the lifeline for Army units.

“Without supply, you cannot do anything,” she said. “You won’t have any equip-

ment, office supplies or other miscellaneous items.”

A self-described introvert, Matthews said the Army has helped her come out of

her shell and be more social. And the inclusion found in being part of a cohesive

team has made her more sympathetic to others in her unit.

“We see each other every day and we go through the same things,” she said. “If

I’m stressed out, then they are probably stressed out. We’re battle buddies and we

have to care for each other. We are each other’s family.”

Army units are often a hodgepodge of Soldiers from unique backgrounds

thrown together and expected to accomplish any mission.

While at Fort Hood, Texas, which was her previous duty station, Matthews said

her supply sergeant was a Muslim who opened her eyes to his culture and the reli-

gion of Islam.

“I learned things from him and it was the same for him,” she said. “We were from

two different worlds, but we still became friends.”

The sense of belonging she has received throughout her Army career has made

her more confident to be herself.

“It makes me feel like I’m wanted,” she said, “and that I’m a human instead of

something foreign.”

Being yourself

Matthews currently plays a key role in the 35th Combat Sustainment Support

Battalion’s busy supply room, tucked inside the U.S. Army Japan headquarters

building.

Staff Sgt. Natasha Ridgeway, her supply sergeant, described Matthews as a

good Soldier who is very respectful, loyal and completes any task she receives.

“Everything about her is a breath of fresh air,” Ridgeway said. “She’s always

happy, high-spirited.”

When Matthews first arrived to Japan last year, Ridgeway took her under her

wing to ensure she was properly in-processed. The sergeant even had Matthews

join her family on outings to explore the country.

With Matthews’ family thousands of miles away, Ridgeway said she tries to

treat her like one of her own relatives.

“It’s good to know that you still have family right

here in this office,” Ridgeway said. “You can be

yourself.” Matthews has drawn inspiration to be her

true self from other service members as well as musi-

cal artist Lady Gaga, an advocate for the LGBTQ

community.

“As a kid, it was awesome to see her be herself,”

Matthews said. “She didn’t really care about what

anybody said about her.”

While the LGBTQ movement has made progress

over the years, the community still battles with mental

health concerns.

Last month, the Trevor Project, a suicide preven-

tion and mental health organization that focuses on

the queer community, published a report that showed

45% of youth respondents had seriously considered

suicide in the past year.

Transgender and nonbinary people consid-

ered or attempted suicide at the highest rates,

and LGBTQ youth of color revealed higher

rates than their white counterparts, according

to the report.

For those struggling with their own identity,

Matthews encourages them to just simply be

themselves and not worry about what others

think.

“You can’t love nobody if you can’t love your-

self,” she said. “That’s the first thing, and it is

kind of the hardest thing to do. It takes time

and you’ll get there eventually.”

Chaplain’s Corner

Talked to someone today that we would cate-

gorize as a Millennial. I went past the genera-

tional milestone a while ago. But, in the

conversation, he made statements about

how life is overly complicated and stressful.

He saw my life of “former days” as much

more direct and simple; not without chal-

lenges but less to contend with and with

simpler manageable answers.

My response was that we make life hard-

er than it needs to be, no matter what gener-

ation we call our own. It’s a decision upon

ourselves on HOW we approach challenges

and aspirations. Here are five things I told

him to help guide some basic tenants.

1. Free your heart from hatred. Get fed up,

can’t tolerate it anymore, or can’t stand that per-

son, but don’t hate. That is ingesting cancer to

the heart and soul. Things and people own you

when you give your joy away. It will destroy

you before it destroys another. If you find that

bitterness, heal it up with forgiveness.

2. Free your mind from worries. You will

worry. Everyone does, but the difference is in

what you do with it and how it can take away

from tomorrow. Worry will not solve a chal-

lenge, but will amplify it. A bit of prayer to the

Creator and a trusted friend’s ears are good

tools.

3. Live simply. That is not living without,

that is poverty. But it is living to eliminate

those things in your life that drags you down

and take away the obviously good things and

people who add to your life.

4. Give more. Giving IS an act of generosity

and kindness, but it is also planting a seed to

grow and spread to the rest of the world, start-

ing right around you. It is a seemingly magical

moment of feeling good from the heart, pur-

poseful despite outward issues, and a deep

satisfaction beyond oneself. Much has been

given to you, so there is much to be given

away. You will find you will still have

plenty. In fact, it makes room for more.

5. Expect less. Selfishness and greed

are manifested through fear. When we

have fear to live freely, we strive, even vi-

ciously, to take. Life or anyone does not

owe us. Our existence doesn’t dictate

wealth, success, power, or happiness. All

those things we can attain through our

gifts, blessings, and hard work. Just accept

each day as a miracle to live. Dance in joy

within your soul. Take all things as gifts.

Well, that is in essence what I told him.

Sounds better in writing than verbally…I think.

But, I hope he got the message. Now, I

guess I had better live by these rules myself.
