planned and executed a number of missions they could be caJled upon to perform during their deployment to the Mediterranean region in July.

"I've been (following) this MEU from start to finish," said BGen Robert M. Flanagan, 2d Marine Expeditionary Brigade's commanding general. "This MEU has real strength, and that strength is their flexibility."

Flanagan cited that flexibility as the rea-son the 26th MEU (SOC) received a "go," or passing grade, in every area in which they were evaluated.

According to the training scenario, a country named Kumasi was beginning to fall apart, and rebel forces were gaining strength. The MEU's mission was to work with State Department officials at the U.S. Embassy and offer the Ambassador the use of any of the MEU's capabilities.

The process began by inserting the MEU's Forward Command Element (FCE), the first group of service members to make liaison with the Embassy. These Marines and Sailors traveled discretely into the Embassy and established contact with MEU headquarters aboard ship.

The FCE had barely gotten settled when the first mission came in the form of three concurrent destruction raids of simulated enemy weapons caches. That job fell on Battalion Landing Team 2/2's Echo Company, Combined Anti-Armored Team and Light Armored Reconnaissance detach-ment. According to LtCol Butch Preston,

Dental techs work in any clime, place

The group of dental technicians organic to the Marine Corps and commonly ^signed here at Camp Lejeune and other surrounding bases are the "Combat Dental Techs," more officially known as field serv -ice dental technicians.

Their mission is to provide dedicated health care to Marines w herev er and when-ever needed.

These Fleet Marine Force dental techni-cians attend seven weeks of challenging training in one of the two Field Medical Serv ice Schools with the corpsmen at Camp l^euie, and Q*np Pendleton, Calif. The program is designed to teach Sailors life-saving and combat skills.

Life-saving skills, with long hours of lectures and practical application using lifelike rubber mannequins, is focused on provid-ing emergency medical care to combat casualties.

In developing their combat capability, .tudents learn weapons proficiency training, combat patrol, Nuclear, Biological and Chemical warfare and navigational aid tech-niques.

Familiarization with the 9mm pistol and M-I6A2 rifle is required to complete the course. Included in the curriculum are daily physical conditioning exercises and forced marches in full gear. ^

Upon graduation, field service dental technicians , are assigned to one of three Dental Battalions within the FMF: the yj. 1st Dental Battalion j r W, at Camp Pendleton,

technicians carried out regular duties and assisted in the sickbays and operating rooms.

In 1950, Dentalman Thomas Christensen was posthumously awarded the Navy Cross for extraordinary heroism while try ing to save wounded Marines under intense enemy machine gun, grenade and small arms fire in Korea.

From June 1965 to January 1973, the 1st, 3d and 11 th Dental Companies, along with

detachments of the 15th Dental Co,-provided support to Marines serving in the Republic of Vietnam.

As a result, Silver and Bronze

In 1983, Petty Officer 2nd Class Paul Dziadon, Petty Officer 3rd Class Richard W. Fly and Dentalman Manuel Bernal were recognized for their outstanding per-formance after the bombing of the Marine Barracks in Beirut, Lebanon.

Dental field service technicians were also in high demand during Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm.

Many of us have been in difficult situations and we experienced fear because we didn't know what to say or do. This is especially true when we are confronted or challenged by our peers to witness our faith. We are either fright-ened or intimidated - not because we are igno-rant of our faith, but because we fear we might be ridiculed, insulted or rejected due to our belief.

This is never more true than today in view of the moral tone and the moral decay in our society. The moral fiber is under attack from both within and without! We, as believers in God and in Jesus Christ, are branded as old-fashioned, or out of step with the sign of the times. These moments make us fearful and confused about what we believe and why we believe. Our critics are so con-

to do anymore; feel free to throw off all irrelevant, old-fash-ioned religious prac-tices and beliefs; find a new life that will make you happy."

Many of us have fallen into this trap,

and have discarded our religious principles which guided our lives. At times we are affect-ed by what people will say about us, or to us! We become more concerned about what people are saying, rather than what we truly feel about ourselves. Too many of us want to separate our philosophies from our religious beliefs. To pro-

Career counseling can speed up promotioi The Enlisted Career Counseling and Performance

Evaluation Unit at Headquarters Marine Corps is an essential tool to ensure a successful career. With the manpower process evolving rapidly, it has significant effects on retention and promotion. The Marine Corps is not only fighting to retain first-term Marines, but also mid-level Marines (8-12 years). The increased loss of these Marines results in an increase of first-termers the Marine Corps must retain. This eventually equates to — — — speedy promotions. In order to reach promotion tempo, Marines are finding themselves in zone much sooner. This is why it is crucial that Marines heighten their com-petitive awareness. The Career Counseling and Performance Evaluation Unit is your tool to do this. They can review your entire official military personnel file and advise you candidly on trends they observe and make recommendations for you to take corrective action

prior to entering into the promotion zone. Don't wait until you get passed over for promotion to call, be proac-tive and call before you enter the eligibility zone. Their number is DSN 278-9241 or 1-800 833-2320.

Keeping Marines informed is an important key to retention.

MARADMIN 121/00 addressed changes to military compensation; the national defense authorization act provided the most improve-ments in recent years. Congress approved a 4.8 pay raise across the board that started Jan. 1. July 1 pay table reform begins in two weeks.

Over the years the pay table became imbalanced often rewarding longevity rather then promotion. The reformed pay table will place greater emphasis on pay increases associated with promotion rather then time in service. Future pay raises (FY01 through FY02) will be the employment cost index plus one-half percent. For Marines who entered the service after July 1986 and completing 15 years active service will have a choice

Kudvard Kipling, as ciled in (be 32nd Commandant's Guidance

My dad celebrated his birthday a few days ago. To be honest, I'm not exactly sure which one. I

think it's somewhere around 67. Anyway, each year his birthday comes a few

weeks before Father's Day. I have to come up with two gifts in a short time,

for a man who doesn't need or want anything...for the most part.

Still yet, he's my dad. I want to find him some-thing special.

This year, like every year since I joined the Marine Corps, I bought him some USMC stuff from the exchange.

Over the years he's received sev-eral T-shirts, some polo shirts, an afghan, a beach towel, books galore, and anything else I knew he would like.

How do I know he will like this stuff?

My dad is one of those retired Marine master ser-geants who continue to live and die Marine Corps ind haven't forgotten the ideals the Corps has repre-sented for over 200 years.

I ndoubtedly the Corps has changed since he retired 20 some years ago. but not in my dad's eyes. To him the Marine Corps will always be the same.

Many decades ago. when I was in high school, m\ dad suggested I join the NROTC since I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with my life.

I wouldn't even consider it. I didn't have enough maturity and sense to plan a year in advance, let alone several years.

Instead. I went to college and somehow muddled through,

I worked a couple of years and then realized my dad had been right all along.

Finally I came to my senses, joined the Marine Corps and went to Officer Candidate School (OCS). i

One of our assignments one evening was to give an impromptu speech about a subject we were assigned. My topic was "Growing Up Green."

I had a lot of things to talk about...like the way my dad would let me be the one to unhook his metal boot blousers and unlace his boots each night.

We lived in Indianapolis at the time and I can guarantee not too many 1st grade kids I knew got to do that every night.

Some of the stuff doesn't sound as fun. I also told them how he made us eat our meals

without talking and if we used our hands in our plate we had to sit on one of them until we were done eating. (I wonder where he got these ideas?)

I forgot to tell them how he would get after us for wasting milk if we ended up with a milk mustache. (Little did he know milk mustaches would become so popular.)

I told my OCS classmates how I had the meanest dad in all of Pike County, III., when it came to dat-ing.

He would stand there and glare at any poor sap that dared take me out somewhere—heaven forbid I invite them inside the house.

It I did that he would sit there and ignore them for as long a> they would endure it. It all seems comical now.

It may sound like I resent him for these things. Actually, looking back, it makes me realize the ways he was showing his love for me.

4 A THE GLOBE, Camp Lejeune, N.C. June 16, 2000

Meet Joe Blick Cpl Ariel Uneras Marine Combat Correspondent

growing up i take him thr Marine Cor] intolerable | frozen

Joe Blick never would have guessed i St. Louis that his path would ugh 22 stellar years of proud

(5 tradition and three months of ain, agony and suffering in the f the Chosin Reserv oir.

As a young tough guy growing up and running with friends, fighting and self-defense was a part of life for Blick.

He did not long for the rigors and regi-ment of military life. But an unusual propo-sition and a few tears later, young Blick, all of 17 years old, was off to Parris Island, S.C., for a three-month introduction into the institution that would become a part of his life and a passion that still bums inside him to this day.

"This guy said the Marine Corps is hav-ing a contest. Whoever signed up the most members would receive a .22 rifle. He asked me if I would sign up to help him out. I said 'Sure, I'll help you,'" he said. "A whole bunch of us signed up. I was seventeen. I told my mom i was going to go ahead and join. She wouldn't sign the papers, I begged her and I cried and she finally signed the papers." Blick was on deployment in the Mediterranean Sea when he and his com-rades were introduced to a situation devel-oping in the Far East.

"While we were aboard ship they kept talking about Korea, Korea, Korea and nobody knew what the word Korea was or anything else," said the former 37mm anti-tank gunner.

But they found out soon enough. On Sept. 21, 1950, Blick and the rest of G Co, 3rd Bn, 7th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, landed at Inchon before moving to and reaching the Chosin Reservoir. The Chosin Reservoir still looms large in the memories of those warriors who fought there half a century later.

"I can think back one time when we were up at the reservoir. You get so darn cold and you're so miserable you don't care whether you live or die," he recalled. "I can remem-ber times when I wish I'd die. That's just the way I felt up there. I said heck, it'd be easi-er to die than to put up with this."

But he did put up with it. And during the days and nights of Dec. 7 and 8, through an intense, blinding snow-

storm, PFC Blick's platoon, in action against enemy aggressor forces, lost its leader and all noncommissioned officers. Blick voluntary assumed command of the platoon and led it in a grueling attack against hostile positions.

"You have to be prepared to move up. You've always got to be prepared to move up to the next level. Maybe you lose this person; somebody's got to be able to fill that slot. If you think that way, then naturally when that time comes, you automatically assume that position. That's what happened to me. I was put in a position where I had to

take over," he said. Under constant heavy fire, he led the pla-

toon in a successful attack against several enemy positions.

Despite being twice wounded in the legs during the attacks, Blick was responsible for killing 14 enemy soldiers and capturing four more. His determination, fighting spirit and leadership served as inspiration to his pla-toon during the mission. For his heroics he was awarded the Navy Cross, the second highest honor bestowed upon any service-member in combat.

He did not return to Korea after recover-ing from his two injuries and receiving his award. Rather, — — — — in 1952, he "You gef so darn cold t i d e d t e S and you're miserable

Corps and test you don't care whether the waters. He you live Or die. " married the for-mer Genevieve Waichulas, a former Marine he had met while stationed at Camp Lejeune and was working with the civil service in Charleston, S.C.

"I just had to get out and see the other side of the world. I felt that I had been through a lot and 1 wanted to see if the grass was greener on the other side," he said. "I came in at such a young age and I was about four years older and 1 just wanted to see. Once 1 got married and I got some responsi-bility, and I'm looking way down the road here, I thought I better get some kind of retirement."

But his stay on the civilian market was short-lived. Eight months into his second stint on the outside, Blick,

the civil service worker, was unhappy and decided he wanted to once again become Blick the Marine.

"I came home one day and I told Gene I wanted to go back in the Marine Corps. She says 'Well if you're going back, you're stay-ing in.' I said 'you don't have to worry about that.' So I stayed in," he said laughing.

Back in the Marine Corps, Blick was sta-tioned here. His handiwork with numbers landed him a job in budgeting and account-ing until 1957. He was then sent to 9th District Headquarters in Chicago.

Headquarters Marine Corps was looking for Marines who had been awarded the Medal of Honor to be bodybearers during the burial ceremonies of the two Unknown Soldiers of World War II and Korea. The ceremony required the bodybearers to be physically fit leaving many of the potential Marines eligible unfit for the detail.

Then search was expanded to Navy Cross recipients and, then SSgt Blick, was select-ed to take part in the final rites of the two American servicemembers in 1958.

"It was quite an honor. And I really felt it was an honor and at times I felt like it was just another detail I was put on. I came to realize that to be with all these other people

a lot of preparation had to go into this thing because it had to be right. That s why we had to train and be in condition to make this march," he said. ''I don t know if there 11 be another Unknown Soldier with the DNA testing. That was quite an honor there."

he high of being a part of the cere-mony carried Blick to 1969 when orders to Hawaii came up. He

decided to not take the orders and hang it up after 22 years of dedicated service.

"My children were young and I just felt that it wasn't a place for me to go with my children to school," said the father of four. "I love the Marine Corps but my family

came first at that time so I got out. Ten, 15 years prior to that I'd love to have gone to Hawaii but not when my children were half grown."

He left the Marine Corps with life-long memories

yet no regrets and continued his second career with the civil service.

"At times I wish I hadn't been in the sit-uation we were at but then you look at the good side and you take the good and the bad and you balance the scales. Overall, they balanced out good," said the retired master sergeant. "I wouldn't trade it for a million dollars. It was good and it still is."

He spent 20 years working with the civil service retiring once again in 1989. He has been an active member in the Marine Corps League since.

"Most of my time now is with the Marine Corps League. I'm just trying to give a little something back to the Marine Corps," said the Jacksonville, N.C., resident.

"When I joined the Marine Corps I was just a young man. What they gave me was making a man out of me. So I just want to give a little something back. I've been retired 31 years. I'm right with the Marine Corps right here. I work so close with the Marine Corps League. I'm with Marines all day long and I thoroughly enjoy it."

Interacting with Marines on a regular basis helps give Blick a perspective on the differences in training from his days

in the Corps and the Marines of today. "I think the troops are much better

equipped and they're trained well. We didn't have so many different conflicts back then as they do now. They are much more pre-pared because of all the flare-ups being the 9-1-1 service doing this and doing that," he said. "I believe the Marine Corps is one of the best trained organizations in the world. We were good then but today they are called to do many things."

Now the efforts are more on teamwork. I think the training is much more difficult than when I went through. I think they're using more effective utilization of the time to train recruits," said Blick whose grandson is cur-

rently at Recruit Depot Parris Island. "I think a" lot of times you do things because they come so naturally to you. It's so important for these young Marines to take this training veiy seriously because you never know when you'll have to apply it. It may seem very rep-etitious ... it's got to be where you do it with-out thinking about it, where it becomes auto-matic. If you don't, it could mean the differ-ence between life and death."

A philosophy that came in very handy and most likely did indeed save lives during those battles in Korea.

Blick said the Marine Corps' involve-ment in real world operations bestows a great responsibility on the

Marines of today. "I think it's a lot harder today in the

Marine Corps than it was w because of all these deployme cises. We didn't have all that we had Korea. That's about i can think of."

22d MEU conducts new worksh ptfOnly $| WDEC&

Story and photos by Capt Mark Oswell 22d MEU Public Affairs Officer

UCol Gilbert Desroches, Battalion Landing Team 1/8 Commanding Officer, briefs his company commanders aboard USS Nassau.

NAVAL AMPHIBIOUS BASE LIT-TLE CREEK, Va. — Recently, the 22d Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) and Amphibious Squadron 2 (Phibron) com-pleted a week-long ARG/MEU workshop, here.

The workshop, a series of briefings, presentations, and practical application, is the first official interaction between the staffs from the MEU and Phibron.

After "locking on," all MEU and Phibron staffs attend this workshop to kick-off an intense six months of training, coordination and interaction between the Marines and Sailors. The intent of the workshop is to establish the foundation for a cohesive "Blue-Green Team."

"During the early stages of our training it is important for the Marines and Sailors from the MEU and ARG get to know each other, and begin the process of integrating Warfighting capabilities as we prepare to deploy to the Mediterranean," explained Col Paul Lefebvre, Commanding Officer of the 22d MEU.

"These initial interactions with our Navy counterparts are key, in that they afford us the opportunity to learn from one another and to put our trust in each other. The planning exercises that we ran are the first steps in the whole six-month training package."

Although these workshops have been held for over 15 years, this workshop is only the second to conduct business under a new and improved syllabus.

"We realized that previous formats, although informative, didn't focus on spe-cific needs of individual functions," explained Col John Rankin. Director of Naval Expeditionary Warfare Training Department. Expeditionary Warfare Training Group-Atlantic (EWTGLANT).

"We decided to organize into specific tunctional groupings to provide them with the information that they would need. I nstead of one large lecture for a week, we broke it down into smaller working groups to benefit the individual staff members, said Rankin."

These four "working groups" are defined as: Commanders and Staff, Raid Force and Navy/Marine planners, Fire Support planners, and Logisticians, Embarkers, and Combat Cargo Officers, accord-ing to Capedon, Workshop Manager GLANT.

factors are especially important for the 82nd Airborne Division since it must begin to de-ploy anywhere in the world 18 hours after notification. To prepare for the wide range of environments in which the division might be deployed, the 82nd Airborne Division con-ducts comprehensive off-post training.

Units routinely deploy to the National Training Center at Fort Irwin. Calif, to train with mechanized and armor forces in a high-intensity battle and the Joint Readiness Train-ing Center at Fort Polk, La. to train with light infantry and mechanized forces in a low- to mid-intensity conflict.

At the S2nd Airborne Division's home base at Fort Bragg, N. C.. division units con-centrate on reinforcing basic soldier skills such as marksmanship and physical fitness Battalion-size units are evaluated periodically on how well they conduct complicated mis-sions such as airborne assaults, airfield sei-zures. anti-armor defenses, and air assault operations.

The training scenarios for these larger training events are based on possible or cur-rent threats to national security and are in-tended to provide realistic, stressful training for paratroopers from the bngade command-ers to the riflemen. Using sophisticated night-vision devices, every division unit trains dur-ing the hours of darkness to maintain its night operations proficiency, which is v ital to suc-cess on today's battlefield.

Fort Bragg has more than 75 modem, well-maintained firing ranges and impact areas for improving the combat effectiveness of the division's paratroopers A full-scale model town, as large as a city block, is used to hone the paratroopers skills when flghung in ur-ban areas.

Overall, training is rugged, realistic and continuous. In a given year a paratrooper trains nearly 270 days, runs 700 miles, con-ducts a minimum of 12 parachute opera!ions and participates in several day and night live-fire exercises.

New River warrior wins Service Member ofMoi 2ndLt Charles C. Jones Ccrtvffunip/ ffatetiorm Officer

The Jacksonville Onslow County Chamber of Commerce ami the lacks«r.w!ie Military Affairs Committee is proud to ijtnounce thai Cpl t o w l 'nda, a disbursing technician at the 4ea4quarter* and Headquarters Squadron finance office at Vfarinc Corp. \sr Station New. River has been selected as the juM 2000 Service Member of the Month.

l n d a . a Stamford. Conn , native, was presented the award at an evening banquet Monday by the Jacksonville Military Affairs Committee to recognize his superior performance as a leader fntering the Marine Corps three years ago, l 'nda com-pleted the financial management course at Camp Johnson before reporting to MCAS New River.

Hi* stellar performance as an auditor and information sys-tems coordinator resulted in his meritorious promotion to < orporai, nd SSgt Anna R. Tirado. Lnda s supervisor and S V OK of the Fmance Office s travel section.

"C'pl I nda reminds me of Radar on "MASH . said Tirado. "He'% always one step ahead of you.

f trado is astounded by Lnda s initiative and judgment and praise. him for taking care of his fellow Marines.

Whether it's drill", land navigation or basic leadership skills. I nda stavs busy helping other Marines, said Tirado.

And most of it is after hours." she added. I nda supervises three clerks and performs 50 percent of

she auditing, more than 600 claims per month, said IstLt Joseph W. ( randall finance officer at MCAS New River.

One of only two NCOs of 20 office personnel, Unda "takes charge in everything we do," said Crandall. '"He's truly a leader of Marines."

Being an exceptional Marine is not all that keeps Unda u He and his wife Yajaira, a childcare provider at a local

daycare center, enjoy spending time outdoors. When he's not running, swimming or scuba diving, Unda

devotes much of his time honing his computer skills. After completing his bachelor's degree in Computer Infor-

mation Sy stems next May, Unda said he plans to apply for the f nli. ,fed Commissioning Program to become a Marine Corps officer and looks forward to having children someday.

I nda's hard work in college is paying off at work where he is known as a self-taught computer guru, said Tirado.

\ true self-starter, Unda took on the collateral duty of Information Systems Coordinator.

Lejeune shooter ta state champions Sgt Brannen Parrish Marine Combat Correspondent

A marksmanship instructor from Weapons Training Battalion, Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, took first place among non-distin-guished rifle competitors in the North Carolina State Championships at Camp Butner, N.C., May 14. Cpl Brian Harrison, a native of Ann Arbor, Mich., shot a 473 out of a possible 500 points with the M-14 rifle during the competi-tion.

Harrison fired in a National Rifle Association match at Camp Butner the day prior, but he used the match to confirm his zero and prepare for the championship.

"On Saturday I was anticipating the shots and I didn't have good trigger control, so when I started my standing, I snapped in and concen-trated on those fundamentals. Every third shot I dry fired to make sure I was using good trig-ger control."

Harrison's strategy worked because his first eight shots were in the "10 ring."

On his ninth shot he scored a' ered and hit in the "10 ring" on i

Harrison described what was his mind while he was shooting.

"When you hit five tens in a r« feel like anxious because your hit you," said Harrison.

"If you hit five in a row it': could hit ten in a row! Five mot a hundred points."

Harrison beat out 36 militar competitors after he scored 99 o sible points in the standing pos 200 yard line.

The goal of the FTX was to provide a multi-national effort to tactically move ground and air support to help defend Greek boundaries from the threat of

Brownlandians, said LtCol Mike Raimondo, G-3 operations officer for 2d MEB.

According to the NATO alliance treaty, any country that exerts force toward a NATO ally is considered an enemy to all within the alliance.

Four days of set-up that consisted of placing check-points, taking proper safet\ precautions, such as making sure Marines were geared properly, and cross-training between Hungarian, Greek and American troops, took place before the FTX began, stated Raimondo, who is from Corn well, N.Y.

"The field training exercise was a defen-sive scenario. Second MEB forces operated under the 2d Greek Mechanized Infantry Division. During the operation, forces moved to various tactical positions using tracked and wheeled vehicles," said Raimondo.

Also participating were the Greek 33d Mechanized Brigade, which included the Multi-National Battalion out of dusty Camp Sparta. Within the battalion there were Marines from Echo Co, 2d Bn, 8th Marine Regiment and soldiers from Hungary's 66th

"We have vehicles and troops coordinat-ing together throughout the hills of Greecc and air support from our N ATO allies, which was led by German air forces. We are defi-nitely learning how to train together clVcc-tively," said Youngblood.

As DM-OQ winds down and the retro-grade phase begins. Marines prepare to head back to the States. The Corps can be assured the common goal of working and learning from one another was reached.

"This was a great training opportunity since it was on unfamiliar ground. We had a chance to practice our control maneuvers, learn more about our allies and most impor-tantly enhance our combat effectiveness," said Col Robert Neller, commanding offi-cer of 6th Marines, the MEB's Ground Combat Element.

returning to their land of ancestry. These Marines have been a benefit to the Marine Corps due to their knowledge of Greek cul-ture and ability to speak the language.

"It is a great feeling to come to Greece as a U.S. Marine," said LCpl Spiros Klitsas, a motor vehicle operator with 25th Marines and linguist for DM-00.

Klitsas, of Springfield, Mass, has received many benefits knowing the Greek language and culture, including being able to spend some time with his uncle, who lives in Thessaloniki, Greece.

"Though my parents live in the States, my family is originally from here [Greece]. When I was growing up, I learned to speak the language through my mother and father who would mostly speak to me in Greek," said Klitsas.

There are other advantages to knowing a second language in the Corps. Some of these advantages include having a better chance deploy to the country whose language you are fluent in, becoming part of a counter-intelligence team, doing reconnaissance of areas being prepared for U.S. troops, and earning foreign language proficiency pay.

The foreign language proficiency pay can be obtained two ways: a Marine can start by going to the Defense Language Institute in Monterrey, Calif., or by taking the Department of Defense Foreign Language Proficiency Test, said DM-00 Communication Information Officer Capt Jerry Kalogiannis.

Based on your test score, you get a-sec-ondary Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) and have a chance to go on exercis-es such as DM-00 as a translator, said Kalogiannis who works at the Warfighting Lab in Quantico, Va.

Kalogiannis, a native of the Greek neigh-borhood of Astoria in Queens, N.Y., is of

Romanian and Greek descent. He is fluent in both languages and concludes that his knowledge of the cultures and ability to translate has brought positive results for him, including the extra-pay, he joked.

"I have had a chance to spend a few days of liberty with my father who currently lives in Athens. The Marine Corps encourages those who have family in different countries where one is serving duty to meet up and spend time with one another," said Kalogiannis.

Though deploying Greek-speaking Marines in DM-00 has had precedence, 14 NATO countries have participated in the exercise, most of them requiring translators

to communicate properly. The Corps encourages those who speak a second lan-guage to take the DLPT.

"Taking the DLPT and doing well can only broaden your horizons by being able to deploy more and see other cultures. This is the first time I've been in Greece oh busi-ness, and it is a proud feeling to come back in uniform and be able to help out both sides. That's what comes with knowledge," said Kalogiannis.

To find out more information about tak-ing the Foreign Language Proficiency Test, Marines and Sailors can contact Camp Lejeune's base education office at 451-3092.

Marine, coach gives final game plan Cpl Derek A. Shoemake Marine Combat Correspondent

The name Coach has always just stuck to LtCol Butch Preston.

*Tve coached kid's baseball teams and military baseball teams," said the' assistant chief-of-staff for G-7, the organization respon evaluating a Expeditionary Uni formance. "And teach ME Us. It everywhere I go Fi ing or coaching."

Don't expect any more bragging than that; like ail great coaches, this one is humble.

You won't hear him brag about the fact he commanded a force Marine or piav professional baseball. I reconnaissance detachment, a rare feat chose this,1 he said. "I'm all about

for a Marine aviator. You'll probably never hear him boast that he's been involved in a staggering 40 Special Operations Capable Exercises fSOCEXs), the final training evalua-tion for a MEL*. You might not even

hear about those SOCEXs, which led to his own deploy-ments to the Mediterranean Sea and Persian Gulf as everything from a pilot to the MEU's executive officer. What Coach does love to talk about though are his favorite sub-jects: sports and the

Marine Corps. "It was either be a

LtCol Preston

team sports, which is what sold me on this: the team concept You're con-stantly working as part of a team.

"I've never been disappointed in my 28 years in the military."

What is disappointing to some is that Coach will be leaving the Marine Corps' starting line-up when he retires July 1. Still, don't rule out a Michael Jordan-esque return.

''The Commandant is thinking about making this a civilian position," he said. The Houston native explained that he would probably take the job, if it were offered.

SOCEX number 41? Maybe. While many may spend

this time reflecting on their careers, this father of three is more focused on the team.

Again, like all great coaches, LtCol Preston has some parting words of wisdom for those teammates:

The more practice, the better it gets. "A good MEU, like any good mili-

tary unit, starts with leadership. That goes all the way down the chain to the staff sergeants and to the sergeants. If the leaders are not looking after the troops, and prepping them for combat, it's not a good unit."

"You have to experience failure to be successful."

"I've learned some stuff, and I've seen a lot of things. I don't have all the answers. You just have to do it and see what works."

"You should always be able to look at yourself in the mirror and see hon-esty and integrity."

"The two most important things are teamwork and sportsmanship. You must always have respect for yourself, your teammates and your opponent."

"It's never been about me." "I'm an Astros fan."

It's me... By Kenneth W. Berg

Maj Larry Costales

As America celebrated Flag Day Wednesday, Marines, Sailors and Soidiers, swarming the area for training exercises, took time out to honor the flag and what it stands for.

The sun is not up yet and I am on the porch Hanging around, doing nothing. The sky is dark but light, the sun is coming And the dark will be no more.

I can't count the times I have been here and Many other places. I have seen the sunrise in many ports and foreign stations.

I have been to Asia and the Pacific, Europe several times and seen its many nations.

I have been on frozen ground You could not pick an axe through, Felt the heat of jungle lands so many I can't mention.

Been on seas with waves so grand they would set your Bones to shiver, and flown so fast in thin, thin air You would think I would know better.

I've been everywhere you have been, And maybe even further. I have crossed the desert far and wide With many generations.

I have felt defeat and I have been beat, Burned, torn and tattered; Watched young men put down their lives for issues I would question.

I have watched politicians lie and cheat As they stand beside me, Have seen blood roll down Many a young man's face.

But of all the places I have been, Of all those many nations, This morning I will wake up on a porch In my land, my home, my nation.

26MEU from 1A = assistant chief-of- staff for G-7, the organization responsible for evalu-ating SOCEX, the MEU did espe-cially well considering the number of raids they had to conduct in the short amount of time.

As the Marines pushed through their raid sites, protesters began surrounding the embassy. Security concerns prompted the deploy-ment of BLT 2/2's India Battery for Embassy Reinforcement. During their reinforcement, the battery thwarted several attacks against the Embassy.

Just as the call came for Embassy Reinforcement, shots were fired into a Kumasi fuel facil-ity during a shift change, resulting in 114 simulated casualties. Marine Medium Helicopter Squadron (Reinforced) 264 (HMM-264) flew in Navy Corpsmen from MEU Service Support Group 26 (MSSG-26) to join the FCE Coipsmen already assessing the injuries. After quick-ly taking care of the wounded, the casualties were flown onto the ships where they received further medical treatment.

With situations in Kumasi rap-idly deteriorating, the Ambassador called for a Noncombatant Evacuation Operation (NEO). During the simulated NEO, American citizens and foreign nationals were evacuated tem-porarily onto the Saipan Amphibious Ready Group after being processed through Evacuation Control Centers (ECC). In addition to evacuating nonessential embassy personnel and establishing an ECC in Kumasi, the MEU had to establish a remote-site ECC for those unable to make it into Kumasi.

Though the evacuation went well, an HMM-264 helicopter experienced simulated mechanical problems on its way to the ECC in Kumasi and was forced to land. The MEU's Tactical Recovery of Aircraft and Personnel (TRAP)

. team was sent in to bring back the aircrew and, if possible, repair the helicopter and fly it back. Within moments of landing the TRAP team located the aircrew and had the helicopter ready to fly.

The TRAP teams were also on alert for HMM-264's Harrier

pilots, who flew sever during SOCEX. The H not only Close Air J many of the ground destroyed certain targe side Kumasi and cc show-of-force over er tions within the country I

mp Lejeune closings due to Exercise Purple Dragon To maximize safety during Exercise Purple

Dragon 00 aboard Camp Lejeune, access to Onslow beach will be restricted from 5 a.m. today until mid-night Tuesday. Specifically, NC 172 from Courthouse Bay to the Triangle Gate leading to Hubert and Sneads Ferry Road from its intersection with Ma-rines Road to Onslow Beach will be closed to civil-ian traffic.

Traffic will be rerouted via Lyman and Marines Roads because of the increase in tactical vehicles using the roads in the Onslow Beach areas. Access to Onslow Beach facilities during this period will be restricted to only those who have rented cottages or campsites, work there or have other official busi-ness on Onslow Beach. These personnel will be pro-vided an access pass by Marine Corps Community Services, or other appropriate Camp Lejeune orga-nization.

In addition to the above restrictions, all traffic on Onslow Beach Road will be restricted from 9 p.m. today until 8 a.m. Saturday. Also, Lyman Road and Hwy 17 between the Triangle Gate and Onslow Beach Road will be closed from 6 p.m. Saturday until 8 a.m. Sunday. A map showing these roads is shown left. Emergency vehicles will have access at all times.

There will also be a scheduled power outage af-fecting the Onslow Beach Recreational Facilities from 9:30 p.m. today until 6:30 a.m. Saturday. On site generators will support the adjacent water treat-ment facility and Onslow Beach operations. Power will be restored upon completion of the parachuting operations.

As part of the exercise, military air traffic around Camp Lejeune will also increase substantially, in-cluding the addition of U.S. Air Force and U.S. Army aircraft.

(5 e a d l n e s s ' Ca">P Lejeune can also call itself home to the American bald eagle.

Recently discovering a nest aboard camp Lejeune marks the first documented Rive"8 S I t S ° f a b a ' d e a g I e ° n t h e N e w

Located near the Sneads Ferry Gate, the eagles nest signifies many important dis-coveries, to include the birds' adaptability o human disturbance and perceived "nega-

tive impacts military installations have on natural resources.

We ve watched eagles here for the past 10 years during migration; speculation has turned into fortune for us after witnessing the successful nesting process that has taken place this year," said Ca rmen Lombardo, fish and wildlife biologist, Envi-ronmental Management Department and hailing from Paterson, N.J.

In addition to being the first eagle nest-

ing site aboard Camp Lejeune, the eagles also exhibited a rare demonstration of trioism. Trioism involves a sub-adult eagle, in addition to the two adults, to assist in raising the nestlings and has only been documented 12 other times in the lower 48 states.

Although the nest was located Febru-ary, nesting activities were first noticed in January.

"On my way to work Jan. 3,2000,1noticed an adult eagle rise off the marsh with grass in its talons," said Lombardo. "Right off the bat 1 knew nest making was in progress, however I never seen the bird again at that location."

Once the actual nest location was discovered, the biologists aboard base kept a vigilant eye out for activities leading up to the young birds fledging and eventually leaving the base.

"On one occasion we were lucky enough to see the adults interacting with an osprey," said Lombardo. "The eagle was exhibiting an aggressive behavior, flying in circles and

even flying upside down once to attempt grabbing the osprey with its talons. Needless to say, the osprey flew off."

The eagle has been on the endangered species list sinceMarch 11,1967 and will be coining off the list July 4. Signifying its return to the wild 42 new eagles have been added to the population in North Carolina this year through their own recovery efforts.

Although the major restrictions will be lifted in July, restrictions will still be in place in accordance with the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act and the Migratory Bird

Treaty Act to ensure the eagle population steadily increase, in the lower 48 states.

During the first week of June, the two nestlings left the nest for the first time. Now the nestlings will be on their own and will hopefully return to the Camp Lejeune area in years to come. The current adults may use the nest again or make a new nesi in the similar area next year.

"We're looking forward to the return of the current nesting pair next year and hopefully the young eagles will return and call Camp Lejeune home," said Lombardo.

MCAS New River corporal enjoys fast track Alanna King GLOBE contributor

The road to the top is a long one...or is it? For Cpl. Eric Marsden, a CH-46 helicop-ter mechanic with HMM-365 aboard MCAS New River the journey was a short one, but not without a few bumps along the way.

As early as kindergarten Marsden's teachers noticed he was having trouble with his school work. His parents took him to Tufts University in Boston where he under-went a battery of tests to determine the na-ture of the problem.

"They would run all kinds of tests be-cause at the time they didn't really know what learning disabilities were," said Marsden,

"Psychological tests, written tests; it would drive me crazy. I would leave in tears. At one point they put droplets in my eyes that burned and blinded me for hours."

Finally, at age 8, Marsden was diagnosed with dyslexia, a learning disorder which re-quires a special education program. Accord-ing to school officials, the district had such a program in place. Marsden's parents, how-ever, felt differently.

'The school's idea of a special educa-

Before receiving factory sponsorhip from Suzuki, Marsden paid all of his racing expenses out of his pocket, an amount which varied from $20,000 to $30,000 annually.

Lingle named SOC board chairman Kirsten Holmstedt Coastal Carolina Community College

Ronald K. Lingle, president of Coastal Carolina Community College, has been elected chairman of a national advisory board that repre-sents 2,500 col-leges serving the military.

Servicemembers Opportunity Col-leges (SOC) is a consortium of na-tional higher edu-cation associa-tions that func-tions in coopera-tion with the De-partment of Defense and military services to help meet the voluntary higher education needs of service members. Colleges and universities serving the services are called SOCAD (Army), SOCNAV (Navy), SOCGUARD (National Guard), and SOCMAR (Marine Corps). Coastal is a SOCMAR college. The SOC advisory board that Lingle is chairing serves all services.

"I'm very excited about chairing the ad-visory board for 2000," Lingle said. "I be-

Sticks and stones may break my bones Social researchers often complain about how little time

parents spend with their kids. The myth of "quality time" in the • tr. si rpfiliyatinn in the nineties that "auantitv

time, somuciii i iuicwvp^ioiv^Mi«".^w,^ j Sometimes 1 feel like the only reason for sociologists to focus on this issue at all is to make the average overworked, under-supported parent feel even more guilty than they already do. A knack that many parents develop with their kids is to be receptive to what have been called "teachable" moments. These are moments when a child approaches with a question or comment and a parent realizes that how they react and what they say at that moment will have a lasting impact on their son or daughter. It's as if everything in the world at large vanishes into obscunty and the only thing that matters at that moment are the words that come out of your mouth. '• ••

While washing the car recently, my 9-year-old daughter annroached, head hung low, kicking a stone. When I asked her what was wrong, she replied that a neighbor boy had told her she was flat-chested. I smiled. ' "Honey " I said, "of course you're flat-chested. You're 9.' "But Mom " my daughter replied, "there's a girl in my class who is nine and she's huge!" I then proceeded with the stan-dard "everybody-grows-at-different-rates speech.

"You'll grow," I assured her. "In the meandme, there is no

exercise you can do or food you can eat, that will make you grow. Trust me, I've tried. You could try prayer, of course, but I doubt your bust line is one of God's major priorities right now." My daughter's next comment, as I hosed down the tires, took me completely by surprise. She said, "I could get breast implants." I put down the hose, exhaled and wondered how to reply. "Honey, you're 9 years old. I think there's a law against getting implants at your age. And anyway," I said, resuming my work, "you come from a long and distinguished line of flat-chested women. So say it with me now, and say it loud: I'm flat and I'm proud!"

My daughter smiled weakly and walked away. I dropped the sponge in the bucket. Chalk one up for the away team.

When I was 9,1 didn't even know what breast implants were. What did I think about when I was 9? I thought about what was for dinner, what I would name my dolls and what the

chances were of me ever owning my own horse. As a parent, to withstand the assault of popular culture on my children often feels like a completely futile effort. It is a David and Goliath scenario. Only, I don't feel like the fearless, annointed king of the Jews.

I feel like someone who can barely set a good example, never mind take on the giant of popular culture with all its premature demands and unrealistic expectations. One of the things that always impressed me about David's debut as a leader of his people in the battle with Goliath was his choice of weapon: a sling-shot and some smooth stones from a nearby stream.

An ordinary projectile close at hand was chosen to take down a huge giant and it completed the job rather spectacu-larly. I think it's important not to feel overwhelmed by all of the things working against us as we try to raise our children in this society.

A few well chosen words, like the stones David pulled from the stream, can go a long way. And if, like me, you pick the wrong ones, well, you live to fight another day and the next time you reach into the stream, you know which stones to avoid and which will hit their target.

tion program was to stick me in a cubicle and isolate me from the rest of the class."

Dave and Sue Marsden filed a lawsuit against the state of New Hampshire on their !»on's behalf. The lawsuit was one of several brought against the state in the late 1970s by parents of children with learning disabilities, prompting reform of New Hampshire's special education programs. After two years of legal battle the Marsdens won their case and the school district was ordered to pay for Marsden's education at the Carroll School, a private learning institution for dyslexic chil-dren.

"My English tutorials were one-on-one and the rest of my classes only had four or five people. Dyslexics just learn differently from most people and this school had figured out how to teach them."

It was during this time that Marsden first discovered his love of motorcycle riding. Since he had been through so much with the court case and beginning a new school, Marsden's parents rewarded him with a dirt bike.

Although Marsden now believes that at-tending the Carroll School was in his best in-terest, at age 16 he was more interested in pur-suing typical teenage pastimes like football and dating. He presented his argument to his par-ents and eventually won out.

"I convinced everybody that I could apply myself and do everything I needed to do to get by," Marsden said, "I wanted to play sports and a private school with maybe 100 students couldn't field teams. My teachers agreed that I wasn't learning anything because 1 didn't want to be there."

The next year he enrolled in a public high school as a junior and joined the football team. His days on the field were numbered though. Shortly after the first game of the season Marsden was involved in a motorcycle wreck that resulted in a serious ankle injury. Unable to return to football, Marsden went back to tlic sport which had caused his injury. By now, Marsden had just a few months left in his se-nior year and began to give some serious thought to his future. He wanted to go to col-lege, but didn't feel he hadn't learned every-thing he needed to know to be successful. He thought another year of public school would prepare him. His parents agreed that he had a lot to learn before college, but thought that private school was what their son needed.

"My mother told me we were just going to look," Marsden said of his visit to the private school campus, "This school has a strict dress code and I went into the admissions interview in ripped jeans, a heavy metal t-shirt and long hair. I gave the lady interviewing me complete attitude."

Unbeknownst to Marsden his parents had already enrolled him in Landmark, a private school known for its small student to teacher

ratio and the academic demands placed on the students. Students were also required to live on campus. Though he wasn't thrilled with the idea of "living at school"

Marsden agreed to attend classes and do his best if his parents would allow him to use the money he had earned from his summer job at the family's store to buy a motorcycle of his own choosing. With his parents permission he purchased a GS6R1100.

"I didn't know what was best for me at the time, but I went to Landmark and got a great education," said Marsden.

As graduation approached, Marsden de-cided to put off college for awhile. He found his calling when he attended a street bike race with a friend at the

New Hampshire International Speedway in Louden, N.H. Two weeks later Marsden paid $400 to attend the California Super Bike School, a traveling clinic which trains amateur riders. While he finished with the second fastest time in the class, Marsden admits that he spent a good deal of his training time on the sidelines.

"I got black-flagged a lot for passing on the wrong side, power shifting and doing stu-pid stuff on their equipment. When they black-flag you, they pull you off the track, give you some counseling and send you back out. I spent more time off the track than I did on," Marsden admits.

After going through another training clinic, M a r s d e n competed in -a "rookie race" to qualify for his amateur racing li-cense. The only require-ment the rid-ers must meet is to complete the t h r e e - l a p race without c r a s h i n g . Again, Marsden finished in second place. However, his first official race did not go as well. He finished second to last.

Disappointed with his finish in his first race Marsden was determined to do better. His next race was the last of the season at Louden. A fifth place finish was enough to earn him a trophy, a big boost in self-esteem and his first three points as a rider.

The 1992 race season started with a bang for Marsden, who finished all of his amateur races placing fifth or better. Within three race weekends he was moved to the junior level of competition. But by this time Marsden had set his eyes on a bigger prize.

"I didn't realize that moving up so fast was

UNGLE from 1C ' lieve we'll address significant issues that will help Soldiers, Sailors, and Marines achieve their education goals."

Lingle's new appointment has not gone unnoticed by the Marine Corps. MajGen Ronald G. Richard. Commanding General, Marine Corps Base, Camp Lejeune, said, "This is a significant honor for Dr. Lingle and the Jacksonville/Camp Lejeune family. Chairpersons of this advisory board are se-lected based on their educational leadership and commitment to higher education for the service members. Based on Dr. Lingle's dem-onstrated leadership and commitment to education, this selection does not surprise me."

For the past 12 years, Lingle has served as Coastal's president. Prior to his arrival in Jacksonville, he was president of Danville Area Community College in Danville, Dl, for seven years and vice president of Academic Affairs for two years. Lingle has also served as assistant dean of instruction, associate dean of instruction, and administrative as-sistant to the president of Meramec Com-munity College in St. Louis, Mo.

From 1965-69, Lingle served in the U.S. Army Medical Sendee Corps. He was a medi-cal evacuation helicopter pilot and educa-tion and training officer and served in the Vietnam Conflict during 1967-1968. He was awarded two Distinguished Flying Crosses, the Bronze Star, the Air Medal with "V," the Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry, and the Com-bat Medic Badge.

Under his leadership at Coastal, the North Carolina General Assembly has cited the college's "DeskTop Audit" as the model accountability system for the North Caro-lina Community College System.

The performance of Coastal students at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington resulted in an articulation agree-ment, which guarantees admission to one

of the most over-subscribed institutions in the state.

The college's close relationship with Ma-rine Corps Base Camp Lejeune and Marine Corps Air Station New River has earned it com-mendations from the Commandant of the Ma-rine Corps and the Southern Association of Colleges & Schools Accreditation Team.

Lingle is a former member of the national Board of Directors of the American Associa-tion of Community Colleges (AACC) as well as the Presidential Advisory Panel of the Ameri-can Association of Community College Trust-ees. In 1988, he was selected as one of the 50 most outstanding community college presi-dents in a national study by the University of Texas. Lingle served on the executive commit-tee of the AACC Presidents Academy from 1991-1994 and was elected chairperson of the Presidents Academy for 1994-1995. He served as president of the Greater Jacksonville/Onslow Chamber of Commerce in 1992 and chairman of the Economic Development Commission from 1998-2000.

The role of SOC, which Lingle now chairs, is becoming increasingly important as more young men and women join the military to earn an edu-cation. Military service representatives cite edu-cation as die number one recruiting incentive for all the services. They also point out that the number one reason why service members are leaving the military is to go back to school using the Montgomery GI Bill.

The SOC advisory board will handle sev-eral issues this year that will affect service members who want to pursue an education. One issue has to do with how the military will use education to recruit new service mem-bers.

All services, except the Marine Corps, are having a difficult time meeting their recruit-ing goals. According to Lingle, the Army and Navy wanted to use the SOC umbrella to automatically enroll service members in col-

lege courses regardless of the i admissions requirements.

"That was going to affect tions' ability to bring in quality Lingle said. "The colleges an ties are not going to give up th make sure that each applicant minimum admissions' standarc versity is going to accept a servi just because he or she enlisted a SOC agreement. Our role i: that we help service members admission and success in colle

Other issues under considera Montgomery GI Bill and tuition The SOC advisory board is infa> than doubling the amount a ser ber receives from the Montgom and increasing tuition assistanc assistance is used while servict are on active duty; the Montgom supplements the service memb< tion after they leave the military

"In 1997, less than 10 percen erans used their Montgomery B because they weren't prepared t( lege when they got out of the Lingle said. 'This statistic dr changes when they work on th tion while in the military."

He continued, "If service me j. get some of their math, science. j l ing deficiencies addressed whi in the service and build their c by taking a college level coun ing well, then their chances o jj school after the military increas M cally. One of my goals for the y ^ to put the weight of the Servicc Opportunity Colleges advisory hind a comprehensive effort to n kinds of essential educational e> universally accessible to our y vicemen and women."

a big deal. The experts was where I wanted to be. I didn't care about anything else."

In the junior races Marsden finished well, usually third place or better, that is when he finished. In those days crashes occurred al-most as frequently as finishes.

Despite having several crashes, Marsden's impressive finishes as a junior had earned him enough points to qualify for expert competition within about five weeks.

Marsden's first race as an expert was also the last of the season at Louden. A steady rain had made the track slippery and Marsden crashed in an effort to catch the leader. Even

so, he finished in — — • — — 15th place.

Following the end of the Louden racing season Marsden headed to Daytona for his first expert races with ideal track condi-tion. His competi-tors at this level in-cluded riders with numerous years .of experience as well as factory sponsored teams like Honda,

Kawasaki and Suzuki. A 13th place finish out of an 80-rider field would have seemed like a good showing to anyone but Marsden. "I still didn't realize the caliber of talent I was racing with. I though 13th place sucked."

From there it went downhill. After his bike blew it's engine in his next Daytona race, Marsden ended the 1992 racing season dis-couraged. The final nail in the coffin was losing the Rookie of the Year award on a technicality. Because he had received three points during the final race of the previ-ous season he was ineligible for the honor.

After a less-than-stellar performance dur-ing the opening race of the 1993 season, Marsden turned in several remarkable fin-

ishes. Almost overnight he was catapulted from obscurity to celebrity. "All of a sudden I had media talking to me and people asking for autographs," he said, " I didn't know what was going on."

As luck would have it, the Suzuki racing team was looking to replace one of its riders who had been injured. Marsden was invited to Daytona for a test run on factory equip-ment. His times were comparable to those of Team Suzuki members and he got the job.

In his first race for Suzuki, Marsden crashed early on. The next race was more of the same. But in his third factory-sponsored race, Marsden was back on track. It turned out to be the best performance of his career. . .and also his last. "I went to Bridgehampton and just destroyed the field. I couldn't even see second place from the finish line," Marsden said. "Finally I was happy, my sponsors were happy, it was great."

Following his victory at Bridgehampton, N.Y., Team Suzuki sent Marsden back to Louden to do some test runs. During one of the tests, Marsden was thrown from his bike going 140 mph, His right shoulder took the brunt of the impact and was shattered. A trip to the emergency room revealed that surgery was needed to reconstruct the shoulder. His cartilage was replaced with plastic, stretched tendons were tightened and the ball joint in his shoulder had to be set deeper into the socket to prevent dislocating it again. Re-covery time was extensive and Marsden lost his sponsorship.from Suzuki. Without the full ride from a manufacturer he would have to go back to financing his racing career by himself. "Before I got sponsored every-thing 1 made at my full time job went to racing. That 's how a racer lived," said Marsden, "If I had ten bucks to spend on myself at the end of the month that was great. I would have had to start supporting my racing all over again by myself."

SecondMedical Battalion's Seaman Kelley Gaynier. from Monroe. Mich., led his team to an 11 under 59 to win the Hospital Corps Golf Tournament June 9 at Paradise Point Golf Club.

Gaynier, who has played golf since he was 4, also won the longest drive competition for the tournament with a 180 yard tee shot on the 17th hole.

"This tournament was fun," said the 22 yearold Gaynier. "We all had a good time. Itwasagooddayfora tournament to raise money for the hospital corps."

The day was perfect for golf, according to several of the competitors, with clearskies and temperatures in the mid 80s.

That weather helped bring out 92 players for the tournament.

"With so many players, we raised more than $800just from registration." said Petty Officer 3rd Class Johnny Puac. with the Battle Skills Training School. "This far exceeded our expectations. We registered seven more teams than we were planning on."

Besides the registration fees, the corpsmen sold refreshments out on the course during the tournament. Ail

proceeds were directed to fund the Hospital Corps Birthday picnic scheduled for June 28.

Puac, native of Houston, Texas, said the outcome of the tournament was secondary to all participants having a good time.

To that end, competition was held to the team level, with "best ball" rules and a shotgun start. The teams kept their own scores.

"I'm really glad the tournament is set up as a best ball event," said SSgt Mike Wood, a network administrator with Division's G-6. "I've had a few shots today that would have put me in a tough spot, but this w ay we get to help each other out."

Though not on Wood's team. Gaynier agreed. "We supported each other out there, even though it w as the first time we played together." be said. "This w as a really great day of golf."

Though the corpsmen had never held a golf tournament fund raiser, the event was a complete success, according to Puac.but that success was not the product of an individual.

"Everybody came together to help out with this tournament." he said.

Stretch for injury-free runni Maj Annita M. Best Deputy Public Affairs Officer, II MEF

Stretching is always a major issue when it comes to being physically fit—especially for a runner. Running creates a thickening of ligaments, tendons, and connective tissue, all of which translates to a loss of flexibility. However, a runner doesn't want too much flexibility because this thickening is necessary for healthy joints.

According to Chris Maund. a corrective exercise specialist, the more an individual runs, the greater the joint stress and the greater adaptation must be. This is one reason w hy seasoned runners are tighter than those who have only been running a few years.

The key to running injury-free is being able to find an optimal level of flexibility that will stabilize your joints while allowing sufficient movement. The fact that this optimal amount varies from athlete to athlete and from one race distance to anoiher. makes italittle difficult to discover the right amount.

Although most runners are too stiff, occasionally a runner may be too flexible, especially if they have a gymnastic background.

According to Maiyid. a classic example of the kind of injury in tight distance runners is disc herniation. This occurs in runners who have very tight hamstrings and spend most of their working day seated.

The hamstrings pull on the bottom of the pelvis, rotating it backward. This creates a flat back posture that is further aggravated b\ sitting for long periods of lime. The disc fluid moves tow aid the back of the disc and, over a period of time, this pressure creates a bulge.

Maund adv ises thai anyone with tight hamstrings who has discomfort with silting should consult a corrective exercise specialist.

What is the best approach to stretching, now that we realize the importance of it?

There are many appn '.iches. Some folks say there is no need to hold a stretch for more than a few seconds, while others believe that stretches should be held for prolonged periods of time to be beneficial.

Maund s the answer lies in distinguishing between "warm-up" stretches and "•dcvctapmeniar stretches.

A warm-up stretch should be held for only a few seconds. Longer holds tend to inhibit muscular activity. Long stretches inactivate the muscles. That's why people tend to get sleepy following yoga-style stretching.

Obviously that's not the type of stretching to do before a three-mile race. However, it is the type to be done after training or racing for a runner trying to increase flexibility.

Many runners complain that they have been stretching for years and have not seen results. The problem may be that they are using short stretches that are not long enough to develop flexibility. Because muscles, tendons,

ligaments and connective tissue are so de held only afew seconds will not affect long-tt

Also, because runners are much loose after a run, the muscles can be stretched a 1 exercise. In addition, a body's core temp lowest at 6 a.m. and highest at 6 p.m. For I stretching must be done after exercise ( afternoon in order to make the best flexibil

"If we didn't have the support from Division, MEF, Group and the hospital, basically every corpsman on Camp Lejeune, we wouldn't have been able to make this such a great event."

Prizes were awarded for the top three and last place teams, ranging from free rounds of golf to a bucket of range balls.

Holding his pass for a free round of golf, Gaynier had one thing to say, "1 have a membership here. I golf forfree already."

Gaynier donated the ticket to his teammates, but kept the T-shirt he received for the longest drive competition.

As far as a possible rematch, Puac seems optimistic. "This tournament turned out better than we could ever

have expected," he said. "We are definitely going to have to look into doing it again next year."

Summary Freshwater

Fishing is very good this week, and everyone is having a good time. There are plenty of little bass and, if you look hard enough, you just might find the king of the pond.

• Offshore Fishing offshore over the weekend was outstanding.There were big dolphin, blue marlin, yellowfin and wahoo caught. The fishing will only get better as good weather continue in the forecast.

Sound There is plenty of bait in the sound this season, leading to good bottom fishing. Puppie drum, flounder and trout are being caught.

• Near the beach Inshore fishing is excellent this week with Spanish mackerel, speckled trout, flounder and cobia being caught..

^ Piers At the piers, fishermen are finding Spanish trout, mullet, hogfish, croaker and some small flounder. This has been a good week for fishing, including the catch of an 86-pound cobia.

4 D THE GLOBE. Camp Lejeune. N.C. June 16. 2000

Intelligence wins local tournament

Compiled by GLOBE Staff

Sergeant Ruben Cedent), 2d intelligence Bn. won the Lrnder !800div iskm of the Fayetteville Open Chess Tournament June 10.

"Thi". ua.-. a real surprise," confessed ihe Marine fmerrogaior. I've been training pretty hard and I guess it's starting to pay off.

Cedeno was the highest placing Marine participant in the 1999 Armed Forces Chess Tournament, coming in 7th in a field of42. He claimed three straight wins in the Fayetteville tournament, w here participants had 90 minutes each to complete their games. Some games lasted the full 3 hours.

Four other Marines participated in the event: IstLt An tanas Garbauskas of Marine Corps Base, GySgt Steven Rollins of 2d Force Service Support Group, ( pi Christopher George with HMT 204 and Cpl Corey Flora from 2d FSSG.

Rollins is the unofficial team captain and point of contact for all players interested in representing the Marine Corps at the Armed Forces Chess Tournament held each year during Columbus Day weekend, Oct. 7 - 9, at the U.S. Chess Center in Washington, D C.

The players have taken to calling chess MOnc-on-One Warfighting" from its history as

•j. cool for training leaders in tactics and its relationship to the principles and guidelines of modern Marine doctrine found in MCDP-1, Warfighting.

Chess players meet even Tuesday from 6 — 9 p.m. at the Central Area Recreational Center, and players from beginner to the serious competitor are w elcome. Call the Rec Center at 451-1942 for more information.

LITTLE CHAMPIONS -- The Midget Girls Softball White Sox went 12-3 to finish first in their division. In the final tournament, they defeated the Braves 11 -4 to officially claim the division champion title.

Hockey greatest sport of \ With the Stanley Cup firmly in the grasp of the New Jersey

Devils, and three months until football starts, I have come to the realization that hockey is the greatest team sport of all time.

That may seem like a hypocritical statement, coming from me, but I must clarify the word "sport."

I'm only including activities in which groups of people band together to get a small object into a goal of some kind. (No, groups of people sticking smaller people into lockers, trash cans or duffel bags is not a sport, though it is sort of fun.)

Football is exempt, because it is a way of life, not just a sport. We'll save that discussion for w hen the Jacksonville Raiders get closer to their first home game.

So I compared hockey, baseball, volleyball and soccer in a point-bv-point competition, stressing the major attractors and detractors from each sport. Of course, the ultimate goal for any sport is to be like football, the all-consuming focus for all life in the universe.

1. Physical contact. Hockey is much like football on ice. The more contact, the better the game. If there's not a spare tooth on the ice, the game isn't over. Soccer, though called "football" by millions of people in places like Kerplakistan, has none of the physical punishment inherent in many of our favorite pastimes. The invention of the red and yellow cards given to players who hit each other took most of the fun out of the game. There are only three possibilities in baseball where physical contact is made: outfielders fighting over a pop fly, the catcher blocking the plate, or falling asleep during the game and slouching over onto the player next to you.

Advantage: Hockey 2. Speed: Anything on ice goes pretty fast, including my sister.

Volleyball matches the speed of hockey, just in a smaller area. Soccer, while having the potential to be fast, generally drags on once a team begins a defensive stand. Baseball makes sloths seem quick.

Advantage: Hockey / Volleyball tie (Baseball gets a 1-point deduction for being boring.)

3: High score: Baseball actually can have high scoring games. How many times this season have teams broken 15 points? Volleyball matches go to 15 or 25 points, depending on which rules you play by. Soccer and Hockey are usually decided by less than five points.

Advantage: Baseball. 4. Time: Volleyball has no set time limits,

except in West Virginia, Missouri and Alaska, yet games rarely take more than an hour. Soccer has two 40-minute halves. Hockey has three 20-minute periods. Baseball has nine innings with no time limits, and often takes three hours more than I'm willing to watch to complete.

Advantage: Volleyball. 5. Breaks in each game: Volleyball has no

breaks, except between matches. Soccer has one, during half time. Baseball has no breaks, unless you count the time it takes for the teams to switch sides and the seventh-inning stretch. Hockey has two intermissions between periods, allowing ample time to visit the stadium rest rooms and vending counters.

Advantage: Hockey. 6. Cool player names: Hockey has Miroslav Satan, Sergei

H A R C H E R

Vyshedkevich, Tim Taylor and Brad Bombardir Bubba Carpenter. John Rocker, Ugueth Urbin I Strawberry. Soccer has Jorge Rodriguez. Jason KJ I Deering. Volleyball has um. . . that guy with the pin] I

•Advantage: Hockey. 7. Season: Hockey is played while there is no foe I

seasons do not generally overlap, thereby filling tl I our lives while not detracting from football itseli I doesn't really have a "season," though summer is teams are most active. Soccer is also a summer sj I cares? Baseball has a year-round season, with abc I off in the middle of March. At least it seems that v |

Advantage: Hockey. 8. Strange customs: Hockey has them all. Fr I

Advantage: Hockey. How can you not like a spor { coveted championship trophy has been used as a

8. Movies about the sport: Hockey has "White I*11 Mighty Ducks," and that Bi I movie. Baseball has "Field f "For Love of The Game," League" trilogy and "A Lea I Own," all of which, except the [ stunk. Volleyball has "Top < 1 some people argue is about (We all know the truth.) S(| movies.

Advantage: Soccer. We dc I more movies about these spc I football.

Adding the scores fron I Deciding Factors, it is clear 1-1 dominant sport here. Hocke I points, followed by volleyball [ soccer with 1. Baseball broug I as it should be.

So it should be no surprise tl I popping up in places where tl" I or snow. Raleigh, San Jose, C] and Phoenix all have professi I

teams. As long as they don't try to get us all to speak wi |

accents, we'll be just fine. Ed Harcher is a former Marine GLOBE staff n
