Force reconnaissance Marines with the 22nd Marine Expe-ditionary
Unit completed a close quarters tactics course at Marine Corps Base
Camp
Lejeune, Aug. 9.The five-week course, which covered
weapons firing, room clearing and breach-ing techniques,
followed 18 days of ad-vanced combat training with Tier 1 Group at
the end of June.
22nd MEU security element Marines were also attached to the
platoon through-out the course.
I really want us to focus on good in-tegration with the security
element and getting them up to our level, said Capt. Alex Usztics,
force reconnaissance pla-toon commander.
The platoon practiced clearing rooms with two-man teams, then
increased to pla-toon-sized building clearings.
A two-man clear is the very minimum amount of people you can go
into a room with, said Sgt. Brandon Temple, assistant team leader.
When only two men go into a room, each person has to do everything
correctly.
The Marines added more men to the
teams, completing five-man room clears before moving to
platoon-sized building clears. Special Operations Training Group
instructors worked with the Marines to in-still muscle memory.
Getting everyone to act as one can be tough, said Temple.
You have people with different ex-perience levels and different
schools that theyve been to, said Temple. Its never smooth sailing,
but youre always learning something new.
The platoon also practiced how to en-ter a breached room and
breach a blocked doorway using mechanical tools, explo-sives and an
exothermic cutting rod.
It is essential for every Marine and sailor in his platoon to
have a good foundation, since any member of the platoon could be
the one entering the room first, said Usztics.
The force reconnaissance platoon is also scheduled to take part
in an upcom-ing two-week visit, board, search and sei-zure course,
training in maritime boarding actions and tactics.
The MEU is scheduled to deploy in early 2014 to the U.S. 5th and
6th Fleet areas of responsibility with the Bataan Amphibious Ready
Group as a sea-based, expeditionary crisis response force capable
of conducting amphibious missions across the full range of military
operations.

In the fight against terror-ism, its important to always remain
vigilant.
The Eagle Eyes program, launched in 2004, is a hotline for
anyone in the military community to report and raise awareness of
suspicious activity.
Through intelligence gath-ering, the United Nations learned Al
Qaida, an interna-tional terrorist organization, usually conducts
three to eight surveillance operations before each attack.
During at least one of those surveillance operations, an
insurgent is physically at the possible location.
They dont want to fail, said Jeffrey Strohman, the mission
assurance training program manager. (The ter-rorists) know having
someone physically survey a location is the weakest point of the
whole preplanning operation because they could get caught. Thats
their vulnerability, and we want to exploit that.
Disseminating the hotline information throughout the military
community is the goal of the program, Strohm-an added.
All (service members, dependents and DoD civil-ians) become
force multi-pliers for the Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, MCAS New
River and MCAS Cherry Point areas, Stro-hman said. (The program) is
inserted into all the train-ing evolutions so everybody knows how
to use it.
Eagle Eyes is used as a training tool for the local po-lice and
Provost Marshals Office personnel at the entry points of Camp
Lejeune to re-port suspicious activity during exercises. A
simulated suspect performs suspicious activ-ity during an exercise
and the gate guards report it using the hotline or website.

The Department of Veterans Affairs announced veter-ans filing an
original Fully Developed Claim for service-connected disability
compensation may be entitled to up to one-year of retroactive
disability benefits. The retroac-tive benefits, which are in effect
through Aug. 5, 2015, are a result of a comprehensive legislative
package passed by Congress and signed into law by President Obama
last year. V.A. strongly encourages veterans to work with vet-erans
service organizations to file Fully Developed Claims and
participate in this initiative, since it means more mon-ey in
eligible veterans pockets simply by providing V.A. the information
it needs up front. Filing an FDC is typi-cally the fastest way for
veterans to receive a decision on their claims because FDCs require
veterans to provide all supporting evidence in their possession
when they submit their claims. Often, this is evidence V.A. legally
must at-tempt to collect on the veterans behalf, which is already
in the Veterans possession, or is evidence the veteran could easily
obtain, like private treatment records. For example, if you give
the V.A. the information from your medical re-cords, they are not
required to get the release of informa-tion form signed by you then
have the agency release the information from them and mail it to
the V.A. in order to get your information. So if they ask for it,
send it.
When veterans submit such evidence with their claims, it
significantly reduces the amount of time V.A. spends gather-ing
evidence from them or other sources often the longest part of the
claims process. While V.A. will still make efforts to obtain
federal records on the veterans behalf, the submit-tal of
non-federal records (and any federal records the vet-eran may have)
with the claim allows V.A. to issue a decision to the veteran
sooner. Typically, V.A. processes FDCs in half the time it takes
for a traditionally filed claim.
FDCs can be filed digitally through the joint, DoD-V.A. online
portal, eBenefits (www.ebenefits.va.gov). V.A. encourages veterans
who cannot file online to work with an accredited veterans service
organization who can file claims digitally on veterans behalf.
While submitting an FDC provides a faster decision for any
compensation or pension claim, only veterans who are submitting
their very first compensation claim as an FDC are potentially
eligible for up to one-year of retroactive disability benefits
under the newly implemented law. V.A. is slowly getting away from
the old paper trail; however the veteran must keep copies of all
records submitted to the V.A.
FDCs help eliminate V.A.s claims backlog because they increase
production of claims decisions and decrease waiting times. Also,
V.A. assigns FDCs a higher priority than other claims which means
veterans receive decisions to their claim faster than traditional
claims. In May, V.A. announced a new partnership with veterans
service organi-zations and others known as the community of
practice, an effort that seeks to reduce the compensation claims
backlog for veterans by increasing the number of FDCs filed by
veterans and their advocates. V.A. is continuing to implement
several initiatives to meet the departments goal to eliminate the
claims backlog in 2015. In May, V.A. announced it was mandating
overtime for claims proces-sors in its 56 regional benefits offices
to increase produc-tion of compensation claims decisions through
the end of FY 2013. In April, V.A. launched an initiative to
expedite disability compensation claims decisions for veterans who
have waited a year or longer
What this means for veterans is the V.A. wants you to provide
the information to assist you. It is up to you to do so.

The Globe bids farewell to publisher
Ryan Douglas Mangrum
Shackleford Banks.
There are few times in our careers when we come across a great
leader. A leader who possesses the ability
to make his employees feel invested in the accomplishments of
the com-pany, who leads by example and en-courages people to strive
for success.
For the last nine years, I have had the honor of working
alongside such a leader.
Jim Connors, publisher for Land-mark Military Media of North
Caro-lina, The Globe and RotoVue, has been the epitome of what true
leader-ship is about, delicately balancing the weight of his
authority and his skills as a mentor. It is with sadness The Globe
team bids farewell to Connors.
Thanks to his guidance and lead-
ership for nearly a decade, our staff received four Thomas
Jefferson Awards for Journalistic Excellence, two USMC Division of
Public Af-fairs Awards, a USMC Combat Correspondents Association
Merit Award and was named Best News-paper in the Marine Corps in
2004, 2008 and 2009.
The Globe circulation increased to more than 600 locations and
be-came a robust media source, both in print and online, by
delivering news to our military families and sur-rounding
community.
Our team has grown profession-ally thanks to his wealth of
knowl-edge and motivation.
Under his tutelage, our staff devel-oped six niche publications,
which have been a success in our commu-nity. Though Connors never
served in the military himself, his heart and his passion while at
The Globe has been to give honor to whom honor is due. His deep
respect for the mili-tary inspired him to help create the two major
events The Globe hosts each year to honor and recognize service
members, both active duty and retired, and those who support
them. This year marked the sixth year of Heroes at Home: Still
Serv-ing Awards, an event dedicated to recognizing military
spouses. In De-cember we will celebrate the third consecutive year
of Still Serving, an event that recognizes those who are still
serving our community after their military career.
There is no greater motivation than seeing the boss down in the
trenches working alongside his em-ployees, showing that hard work
is done on every level. Connors was not afraid to jump at the
opportu-nity to help his team. It was not a strange sight to see
him roll up his sleeves and help deliver newspapers at 4 a.m. on a
Thursday morning or joining the editorial team with a camera in
hand to assist coverage during a presidential visit. Speak-ing for
my staff, I know we will greatly miss his humor, knowledge and
genuineness.
It has been a privilege working under his leadership.
We wish him great success in his future pursuits and hope he
re-alizes the impact he made in the community.

Service members who suffer from Post-Trau-matic Stress Disorder
and traumatic brain injuries may have a new treatment called
Hy-perbaric Oxygen Therapy.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy increases the amount of oxygen in your
red blood cells and the tissue in your body, which may change the
way the body heals.
When you are just breathing air youre breathing about 21 percent
oxygen, by breathing 100 percent oxygen and adding the pressure it
may change how the body heals the mind, said Lt. Cmdr. Daniel
Lesley the staff neurologist for the Camp Lejeune Naval
Hospital.
To undergo the treatment, an injured service member must first
pass a physical to make sure he or she doesnt have any inner ear
problems or other illness keeping the them from benefiting from the
process. After passing the physical, the service member can begin
Hyperbaric Oxy-gen Therapy.
Dr. Lesley said the Camp Lejeune Naval Hospitals Hy-perbaric
Oxygen Therapy consists of 40 sessions through-out a 12-week time
period.
Each session consists of the patient entering either a monoplace
chamber, a one person chamber, or a multi-place chamber, a multiple
person chamber, where the pressure increases slowly to an
equivalent of 17 feet under-water. Then either the chamber is
filled with 100 percent oxygen, or an individual patient wears a
mask filled with oxygen. The oxygen and pressure stimulates the
bodys red blood cells and tissues which could change the bodys
healing process. After the session is complete, the patient is
brought back to the pressure of sea level.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy has not officially been proved as a
therapy for PTSD or TBI, said Dr. Lindell K. Weaver, the study
director of hyperbaric medicine and mild TBI. However, it has been
proven to help with bone infections, burns, carbon monoxide
poisoning, radiation wounds, decompression illness and skin
grafts.
Currently, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is being tested and is in
the approval process by the Federal Drug Admin-istration for
treatment for PTSD and TBIs.
Whether the therapy is proven to help PTSD and TBIs or
disproven, the results will help service members, said Lesley.
There are service members who pay out of pocket for this treatment
out in town. If we can prove it works, then we can provide the
treatment; if it doesnt work, then we can save service members
their money.

8th Engineer Support Battalion trains with 2nd TracksLANCE CPL.
SULLIVAN LARAMIE2nd Marine Logistics Group
Marines with 8th Engineer Sup-port Battalion, 2nd Marine
Logis-tics Group, trained newer members of the unit, as well as
Marines with 2nd Assault Amphibian Battalion, 2nd Marine Division,
in the basics of demolitions during a field op-eration aboard
Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, recently.
The service members used expe-dient charges bombs which were
made in the field using on-hand ma-terials and C-4 explosives.
Among the explosives employed were wall- and door-breaching
charges, anti-personnel charges and obstacle-clearing Bangalore
torpedoes.
The Marines were getting hands-on training with the expedi-ent
demolitions, said Sgt. Dan-iel B. Wiggins, a combat engineer. (They
were learning) what goes into the explosives and how theyre made.
They were very excited to get (hands-on training) because a lot of
the Marines, especially from (2nd Tracks), dont use explosives at
all so it was a good experience for them.
Following the demolition train-ing, the Marines with 8th ESB and
2nd Tracks boarded several Assault Amphibious Vehicles and crossed
the New River on their way to a range for a different type of
explo-sive: rockets.
The service members were joined by Marines with 2nd Com-bat
Engineer Battalion, 2nd Ma-rine Division and learned to fire
Shoulder-launched Multipurpose Assault Weapons.
We fired about 65 rockets, which is unheard of around here, said
Cpl. Jacob H. Meese, a com-bat engineer with 8th ESB. We got to get
together and shoot the SMAWs, which I had never even seen before.
It was really cool to fire a live rocket, and Im sure Ill never get
to do that again.
Several Marines expressed a desire for further cooperative
exer-cises to expand knowledge among all units in case one is
unavailable
for a particular mission.We would like to do more
joint operations with other units, said Wiggins. (Because of)
the drawdowns in the Marine Corps, its kind of hard to use our own
as-sets so we try to incorporate other units so everyone can get
mixed training.
The operation gave Marines an opportunity to share their
expertise
and understanding with others and build the skills of fellow
service members.
Some people dont understand much at all about (demolitions),
said Meese. Its really cool when people come up to you, ask about
your (military occupational spe-cialty) and theyre really
interested. To you its normal, but to them its a whole new
world.

The Marine For Life and Per-sonal and Professional Development
programs help service members find the tools to draw their civilian
career roadmaps.
Any Marine leaving active service, either through retirement or
separa-tion, is eligible to use the programs offered for career
advancement.
Marines shouldnt wait to utilize these programs, said Lt. Col.
Jerard Brewer, district officer in charge for the Marine For Life
program. Thirty to 90 days until their end of active service is not
enough time to start the process. Brewer recommends Marines start
12 months before their end of active service.
Theres an entire command sec-tion dedicated to helping service
members with the transition, but ser-vice members dont always make
the connection, said Brewer.
The Transition Readiness Semi-nar is a mandatory week-long
pro-gram designed to help transitioning service members decide on a
path-way for life after retirement or sepa-ration from service.
Marines learn
about education and career oppor-tunities, technical training,
employ-ment and entrepreneurship.
The Montgomery and Post 9/11 GI Bills along with Tuition
Assistance provide financial options for educa-tion, while
regionally accredited insti-tutions provide resources needed for
career training and employment.
Individuals exiting the Marine Corps will be asked to provide
Per-sonal and Professional Development a rsum, said Brewer. He
added individuals should start it now, and continue to update as
they progress in the Marine Corps.
Rsum building is offered through transition readiness semi-nars.
Advisors provide individuals with a step by step process, and also
serve as the link between service members and the Marine For Life
program. They help Marines find work and mentors in every job field
to assist service members transition-ing into the civilian work
force.
The seminar was extremely effective in helping make the
transition, said David RestoCruz, who separated from the Marine
Corps as a sergeant with more than seven years experience as an
embarkation specialist.It gave me all the tools needed
to put together a perfect rsum, said RestoCruz. With the help
from TRS and the rsum building, it got me the job I have now as an
assistant manager at Sams Club.
Job fairs and expositions also assist Marines and sailors with
the network-ing needed to continue a successful career after
retirement from service.
The Marine For Life program may not have someone in a specific
job a service member is looking for, but we have a contact that has
the in-formation, said Brewer.
The best thing a Marine or sailor can do is to visit the
Person-al and Professional Development staff aboard their
installation, said Shawn Conlon, Personal and Profes-sional
Development branch head. Let the advisors guide you through a
personal assessment that will help you identify your values,
interests and skills to define what the next step will be.

To help avoid future terrorist threats, the Incident Response to
Terrorist Bombings course, conducted quarterly aboard Marine Corps
Base Camp Lejeune, has a curriculum which covers
in detail bomb-making components, high explosive effects and how
to recognize and detect improvised explosive devices.
The course, which is certified by the New Mexico Institute of
Mining and Technology, Department of Homeland Security, is an
advanced, four-hour long class that increases threat awareness.
As part of the curriculum, students learn the basics of low
explosives and high explosives.
We talk about the explosives because these ener-getic materials
and chemicals are used in the most highly proficient terrorist
activities globally, said Jeffrey Strohman, the mission assurance
training pro-gram manager and course instructor. You can see the
importance with deploying and garrison Marines as well as the first
responders, who can roll up on any scene or situation, to know this
information for their safety and the safety of innocent
bystanders.
The materials discussed during the class are used in more than
70 percent of all terrorist attacks.
Strohman uses videos, slides and passes around in-ert training
aides during the course simulating bomb components of IEDs, which
gives students hands-on training about what to look for.
We talk in detail about the effects, components of high
explosives, said Strohman. The students earn a very keen respect
for high explosives, how to not handle them, and the distances to
safely be from various levels of high explosives. I have to stress
only explosive ordnance disposal experts should handle explosive
materials if any are found.
High explosives can detonate anywhere from 3,300 to 28,000 feet
per second.
That is very fast and very powerful, Strohman said. Often times,
the bombs will have fragmenta-tion components added to them to
increase the devas-tation done during a terrorist attack.
The course also covers common uses to carry or hide IEDs, such
as backpacks, vehicles and suicide bombers.
Globally, suicide bombings are up 25 percent. The tactics and
techniques terrorists use are being modi-fied to what is most
effective. That is why Strohman includes the subject material in
the terrorist bombings course and instructs an entire course
dedicated to sui-cide bomber techniques.
The students of the course appreciate the curriculum.I enjoyed
the class because it gave a lot of use-
ful information in a straightforward and interesting way, said
Staff Sgt. Francisco M. Martinez, an Inci-dent Response to
Terrorist Bombings course student. Its a great class for anyone who
needs the certifica-tion or wants more information about the level
one training we all take.
For more information about the Incident Response to Terrorist
Bombings course or other training class-es, call Jeffrey Strohman
at 451-9353, or email him at [email protected].

Ive noticed the Eagle Eyes information all around the base, said
Staff Sgt. Francisco M. Martinez, inbound section, installation
personnel administration center staff noncommissioned officer in
charge. This is great information for everyone to know, because we
have to stay vigilant even in garrison.
Strohman spearheaded the Eagle Eyes program from the ground up
and aligned it with the new Trapwire online reporting program.
The Trapwire program offers a website link available from any
mobile device capable of accessing the internet to upload reporting
information and photos of suspicious persons or activity to a
national database for law enforcement to cross reference.
If someone in Texas takes a photo of a suspicious vehicle or
person and uploads it to the Trapwire website, and the same vehicle
or person is reported in another part of the country, law
enforcement can work together to locate terror-ist sleeper cells or
any other kind of threat that may occur, Strohman said.
The Trapwire online program complements the existing Eagle Eyes
pro-gram very well, Strohman said. Its a good asset, and its
working.
Strohman conducts classes about incident response procedures and
first re-sponder training and incorporates the information of the
programs into each of his classes.
This is risk mitigation through training and technology, said
Strohman.
The programs are advertised throughout base with signs and on
the elec-tronic billboards as well as a Facebook page to inform the
community.
For more information about Eagle Eyes or Trapwire, contact
Jeffrey Stro-hman at 451-9353, or email him at

EAGLE FROM 1A
LANCE CPL. KRISTA JAMES2nd Marine Division
Marines with Company B, 2nd Light Ar-mored Reconnaissance
Battalion participated in qualification exercises for gunner
positions in Light Armored Vehicle 25A2s at Shooting Range 7, Aug.
5.
Staff Sgt. Nicholas Brundige, a platoon sergeant with Company B,
2nd LAR said this training is part of the annual qualifications for
gunners.
We get everyone out here for (quali-fication) to make sure
everyone is spun up and knows their jobs, Brundige said. Each
platoon has four different crews, and at the end, whoever shoots
the best will claim the title Top Gun,The Marines spend each day
going through five different courses that included still and moving
fire, and concealment. Course six was designated for qualifications
and con-tained every aspect of the training.
The Marines spend months maintaining the LAVs and the weapons
systems, the bian-nual gunner qualifications give the Marines a
rare opportunity to actually shoot the guns.
This benefits us mostly because we maintain
the gun all throughout the year, and we only get to shoot it a
few times a year, said Lance Cpl. Kyle Dukatz, a gunner with
Company B, 2nd LAR Battalion.
Brundige said over all, the exercise ran smoothly and went
well.
We had two crews that shot extremely well, along with the rest
of the company shooting very well, said Brundige. Weve got about
four new crews, and the new guys are really grasping the whole
concept of being an LAV gunner.
Dukatz said being able to do the gunner qualifications more
often would greatly improve the Marines abilities and what they
need to improve before they deploy.
If we could do it more we would be a lot more accurate, said
Dukatz. Our abilities would be improved substantially, so when we
go on deployment, or on pre-deployment, wed be right on top of it
every time instead of having to get back into it.
Since the Marines dont get the opportu-nity to qualify very
often, earning the title of Top Gun becomes even more exciting.
If the Marines dont claim Top Gun, they have a shot at the title
in six months when 2nd LAR will qualify again.
2nd LAR Marines compete on range
CPL. KYLE N. RUNNELS26th Marine Expeditionary Unit
During their 2013 de-ployment to the 5th and 6th fleet areas of
responsibility, the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit rides aboard
ships that make up the Kearsarge Amphibious Ready Group. They
conduct training with various countries in the area while stand-ing
guard ready to respond to a crisis in a moments notice.
When and if called upon, the 26th MEU relies heavily on the
combat cargo Marines assigned to each ship. They are responsible
for getting everything and everyone off ship in a timely manner.
Help-ing lead the combat cargo Marines aboard the USS Kearsarge,
Cpl. Justin Rudisill shines, taking the lead as their well deck
noncommis-sioned officer in charge.
We are in charge of moving any piece of gear, food, vehicle or
pack, said Rudisill. Basically anything that comes on or off the
ship, combat cargo is moving it.
The job of combat cargo is considered a temporary additional
duty with no prerequisites in order to be selected. Rudisill said
he volunteered for the job, knowing his background of landing
support specialist would give him the foundation to ensure success
during his deployment.
Everything I do in the well deck with the vehicles, like loading
the (Landing Craft Air Cushions), I did for my job on the beach,
said Rudisill. Being a red patcher, I am in charge of taking gear
on the beach, putting it on the LCAC and sending it to ship. Now,
instead of being the guy on the beach and tak-ing it off or putting
it on, I am the guy on ship who loads it and sends it back to the
beach.
He said one of the main dif-ferences was the space available.
The beach is infinitely big when compared to the room in the well
deck. They often say working in the well deck is like playing
Tetris. You constantly have to move gear and vehicles around in
order to get the pieces to fit right.
Rudisill had experience com-ing in here doing exactly what we
needed him to do for combat car-go, said Chief Warrant Officer 2
Kacy Raye. Being a red patcher, he had already been part of
(beach
operation groups) and (pier offload groups) and other things
which are very similar to what we do in the well deck.
Rudisill said he is going to take the knowledge he has
received
working in combat cargo and ap-ply it to his job when he returns
to Combat Logistics Battalion 26. He said he will be able to load
the LCACs at the beach to help the offload in the well deck since
he has a better under-standing of their operations.
Aside from having previous experience working with the landing
forces operational gear, Rudisills work ethic and ability to lead
gives the staff noncom-missioned officers and officers a Marine
they can rely on.
If there was one attribute I would ask for from the NCOs who
show up here, it would be that they have leadership experience: it
is absolutely vital, said Ray, combat cargo officer in charge
assigned to the USS Kearsarge. He has risen to the top. I would say
having guys like Rudisill the SNCOs can trust is probably a very
comforting relief to them. The Marines we have running the show now
are the Marines we know we can count on to make sure everybody
stays safe, hydrated and gets everything done.

THURSDAY AUGUST 15, 2013B | THE GLOBE
CHANTEL GREENSports editor
Last year, the Cherry Point Sprint Triathlon attracted a record
turn-out of more than 200 athletes to compete
in the event organized by Marine Corps Community Services Semper
Fit aboard Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point.
This year, Semper Fit hopes to break another record when the
competitors arrive at Hancock Pool aboard Cherry Point to swim,
bike and run their way to the finish line, Aug. 17.
The event is expected to attract more competitors this year, as
the triathlon gains supporters and ath-letes with each passing
year.
Adults arent alone in their trek to triathlon success, as 7 to
12-year-old children will join the ranks and compete in their own
triathlon.
The 7 to 9-year-old athletes will compete in a 50-meter swim,
one and a half mile bike ride and half mile run. The 9 to
12-year-old com-petitors will swim 100-meters, bike three miles and
run one-mile. The adult competitors ranging from 13 to
65-years-old, will split into 11 sepa-rate groups before a
400-meter swim, 10-mile bike ride and three-mile run.
The sprint triathlon makes up one part of Semper Fits 2013 Grand
Prix Series, which takes place each year at Cherry Point, Marine
Corps Base Camp Lejeune and the surrounding areas.
Athletes earn points for each event they compete in throughout
the year, adding up to their end-of-year score.
The top six contenders, three female and three male, will
receive recognition at an awards ceremony after the Santa Shuffle
5K, Dec. 14.
The triathlon begins at Hancock Pool where swimmers will crouch
down and ready themselves for a dive into the race lanes, knowing
the swim is only the start of a long journey ahead.
As sweat pours down their face and into their eyes, competitors
will have to maintain focus on the finish line and work through the
aches and pains of putting their body through so much.
When the triathlon participants cross the finish line Saturday,
a medal will be placed around their neck, and they will take pride
in their perseverance.
Crosby believes the pain com-petitors experience throughout the
event will fade, but the memories made will last a lifetime.

THE GLOBE, CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. 2B AUGUST 15, 2013
The Dog Days of Summer arrived this month when the star Sirius,
also known as the Dog Star, aligned with the high, mid-summer sun
and created hot, humid and stagnant days.
A few modifications to your fishing routine will help you beat
the heat and continue angling.
First, you need to match the habits of summer fish and avoid the
midday heat by fishing very early, or late at night for spots and
sea mullet.
Other options include fishing in the deeper, cooler waters or
around shaded areas around bridges, piers and docks.
Offshore, thermo clines may help provide cooler shelter for
pelagic species.
Another approach to adapt with summer fish is to target
hot-water tolerant fish and warm-water species including pompano,
spadefish, sheepshead and tarpon.
This time of year, the Neuse River drum fishery harbors fresh
people eating shrimp and soft-shell mole crabs, both favored baits
for pompano and sea mullet.
The Spadefish love clams and chunks of cannonball jellyfish,
whereas sheepsheads prefer fiddler crabs and spiny sea urchins.
This weekend, the Dog Days of Summer didnt affect the mackerel
attack mode, and anglers landed both kings and Spanish mackerel in
abundance, especially when slow trolling live pogies along the
beach.
This time of year, a sailfish or dolphin fish catch may surprise
you while live-baiting for kings a few miles off the beach.
Fishermen landed sizable fish east of Beaufort Inlet in 40-foot
waters, while boats worked Keypost Rocks and near shore rocks out
of Bogue.
The artificial reefs out of both inlets produced many catches,
including AR 315, 320, 330, 342 and 345.
The high activity in the water is due to the abundance of bait,
recently.
In addition to plenty of bait, fishermen saw clear waters with
moderate temperatures.
The summer water temperatures remained between 77 and
82-degrees, unusually moderate for the Dog Days.
In contrast, the weekend brought little reward for anglers in
the surf with mostly short fish, sea mullets
and spots, although some reported catches of red drum and
flounder around Ft. Macon.
To the west in the Bogue Inlet surf, I caught only a few short
flounder and red drum.
I brought in one red drum with the measurements of a low to
upper-slot fish, between 18 and 27-inches.
When the summer days become long and stagnant, the pier anglers
also find themselves adapting to the summer fish habits.
When piers adapt to beat the heat, the fishermen reel in a wide
variety of fish, but not an abundance of any particular
species.
Bogue Pier experienced another hot week in king mackerel catches
which brought the piers count up to nearly two dozen kings since
July 16.
The Spanish mackerel also lingered around the pier, joined with
a mix of tarpon and a few barracuda.
A pier regular lost a four-pound flounder on live shrimp Monday,
but most flounder catches measured short.
In the evening hours, anglers brought up sheepshead, croakers,
spots, slot red drum and sea mullet.
Down on Topsail Island, Seaview Pier landed several king
mackerel this week, continuing the mackerel attack at the piers
along the coastline.
Seaview fared well and added Hatteras blues, grey trout and
Spanish mackerel to their list of succesful catches.
Surf City Pier reported a consistent pattern of two king
mackerel each day, and added Spanish mackerel, flounder, spots and
blues to their list of catches.
Over the past few days, Jolly Roger Pier reported Spanish
mackerel but no kings.
Some Jolly Roger anglers landed six-pound Spanish mackerel on
king rigs, while others reeled in two-pounders on GotCha plugs.
This weekends inside fishing included redfish and speckled trout
caught on top-water baits, Gulp lures, and live mullet and
shrimp.
A noteworthy catch came at the north end of Core Creek, where an
angler reeled in an eight-pound speckled trout.
Core Creek sits right near Adams Creek, where weekend anglers
reported pulling up an
abundance of stripers.The stripers hooked themselves
on the live shrimp dangling from the anglers fishing rods.
To the west, fishermen brought up good catches of redfish and
speckled trout from Swansboro to New River.
This weekend, the newly returned drum bite in the Neuse and
Pamlico areas continued and indicated a great season for red drum
fishing.
Grab hold of your rod and reel, because the large red drum in
this fishery put up a fight with a hard pull.
These fish often bite at cut bait, menhaden or hardhead mullet
on an Owen Lupton circle hook rig, but some fishermen also reported
catches on sight-casting bucktails.
If youre angling, youll want to stay on high alert in the next
few weeks for the first wave of the Crystal Coasts Mullet Blow.
The infamous mullet movement typically begins around late August
or early September when a blast of northeast wind arrives on the
coastline.
This marks the beginning of a massive migration as mullet begin
moving out of the creeks and sounds, followed by drum, flounder and
speckled trout.
When the fish migrate out of the inlets and along the beaches
and move south for the cold winter season, anglers wave goodbye to
the Dog Days of Summer and say hello to great fall fishing.
With the Dog Days of Summer still lingering, anglers must adapt
to the summer fish until the fall fishing season finally
arrives.

impinging on his spinal cord, he was losing his coordination and
balanceand stood to lose even more. The need for advanced spine
surgery was urgent.
After carefully researching his options for treatment, Blair
chose NHRMC. The referrals were consistent and glowing, and staying
close to home was a tremendous plus for his family during surgery
and follow-up care.

A participant of Hard Corps Beast, a High Intensity Tactical
Training Center class, builds his core with a medicine ball during
a tough group class at the H.I.T.T. Center aboard Camp Lejeune,
Aug. 6.
LANCE CPL. JACKELINE PEREZ RIVERAMarine Corps Base Camp
Lejeune
Members of the Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune community can
shrink their waistline and strengthen their cores at Hard Corps
Beast.
From 11 to 11:25 a.m. Monday through Friday, High Intensity
Tactical Training Center instructors conduct a dynamic range of
workouts designed to tone participants abdomi-nal muscles.
Core strength is the foundation of daily life, said Nicole
Freres, a H.I.T.T. Center instructor. If patrons create a
strong
core they will have fewer injuries.
The core describes the muscles around a persons torso, including
their back, side, pelvic area and ab-dominal muscles.
Core muscles support al-most all activities including everyday
acts and on-the-job activities.
Standing, sitting, lifting and carrying items are among the many
ways core muscles are used every day.
Any exercise you do involves your core, whether its walking,
jogging, run-ning, squatting or power lifting, said John Heger, the
H.I.T.T. Center man-ager. A strong core is a necessity.
The class is quick paced
with high intensity, result-ing in a stronger workout.
Weighted medicine balls are used to increase resistance and make
the exercises more challenging than they would be other-wise, said
Freres.
We like to give the best product we can, said Freres. We always
want patrons to walk away feeling like theyve accom-plished
something. If they walk away and say it was a challenge, we have
done our job.
Hope Wallis, a patron who has attended the class for a year,
said the instruc-tors are motivating and make working out fun.
Its a challenging class, said Wallis. (The instruc-

ing the class, Wallis has noticed she has become stronger, her
body fat has decreased and her muscles are more defined.
Despite the intensity of the class, all patrons are encouraged
to participate.
We like to see people of all fitness levels come consistently to
get better and stronger, said Freres. We want to get people out
here exercising.
The H.I.T.T. Centers fa-cility accommodates larger groups. Most
classes have
30 to 80 participants. Hard Corps Beast is
taught by a variety of instructors to keep the cur-riculum
fresh.
We have seen that pa-trons like having a variety of instructors
versus just one person teaching the class, said Freres.
Occasionally, multiple instructors take the helm for a class and
rotate through exercises. Each instructor brings something new to
the class, said Heger.
Instructors conduct research, go to fitness conventions and
observe
patrons at the H.I.T.T. Cen-ter for new workout ideas.
As fitness professionals, were constantly looking for new ideas
so patrons dont get used to the same thing, said Freres. You have
to challenge the body in different ways.
H.I.T.T. Center instruc-tors are also available for private
sessions.

CHANTEL GREENSports editor
Rolling rip tides, hazardous marine life and powerful waves all
add to the dangers of swimming in the open ocean, making it a
dangerous place, even for the most advanced
swimmers. Sitting above the shore watching beachgoers,
lifeguards must deal with a variety of life-threaten-ing factors
on a daily basis.
On any given day, Onslow Beach aboard e Camp Lejeune fills with
military members and their families in search of a relaxing day
under the sun.
Cpl. Joey Roehrig and Cpl. Wes Marion saved four lives this
summer, and each life-threatening situation started with a rip tide
too strong for swimmers to handle on their own.
The current can be very difficult to escape, even for an
experienced swimmer.
Earlier this summer, two children swimming at Onslow Beach found
themselves caught in a strong rip current, struggling to stay above
water and swim back toward the shore.
Wes and I ran into the water and grabbed two kids caught in a
rip. Their parents were trying to help, but there wasnt much they
could do, said Roehrig.
Later in the summer, the lifeguards teamed up again when Roehrig
spotted two children yelling
for help and rushed in with Marion to assist. Their saves arent
a simple stroke of good luck. The two lifeguards must put forth
great strength
and athleticism to save someone from the barreling waves and
devastating rip currents of the Atlantic Ocean.
All beach lifeguards must meet specific require-ments
established by the United States Lifesaving Association, one of
which includes swimming 500-meters in under 10 minutes.
Roehrig and Marion, along with other- life-guards in the
community, serve to ensure the safety of swimmers. These lifeguards
protect people from dangers they may not know exist.
The ocean can take even the good swimmers, said Roehrig.

Roehrig and his fellow lifeguard, Cpl. Wes Marion, rescued four
people this summer after strong rip tides pulled the swimmers under
the water and away from shore.

History comes to life as pirates invade BeaufortAMY
BINKLEYLifestyles editor
A vast me hearties and hear the tale of the return of the
brethren of the sea.Long ago, before the Marine Corps was a glimmer
in the coun-trys eye, an enemy lurked in the waters along the
shores of the Crystal Coast. The wandering renegades who pillaged
towns and made off with ships were known by one name pirates and
they would not be stopped.
But in 1747, in the town of Beaufort, N.C., 13 men took up arms
to defend their village. They formed one of the first elite
fighting forces and de-feated their adversaries.
Thousands of visitors saw history come to life during the 2013
Beaufort Pirate Invasion, where the epic battle between the
citizens and the buccaneers played out on
the streets of the tight-knit community, Aug. 9 and 10.My
parents used to bring me when I was a little
girl, said Amy DeBeuhl, a local resident. All of this is true.
It really happened.
Cannons were ablaze while Capt. Horatio Sin-bad navigated his
ship, the Meka II, near Grayden Paul Park as re-enactors on shore,
dressed in full pirate and militiamen regalia, re-created the fight
from more than 250 years ago.
I love the smell of gun powder in the morning, Sinbad called out
to the audience.
The crowd joined in on the fun, sporting their own versions of
pirate costumes, and cheered as the two sides clashed their swords,
shot their rifles and hurled insults across the field.
Following their capture by the militia, visitors watched the
scallywags be taken to the jail located at the Beaufort Historical
Site and put on trial for their crimes.
Photos by Amy BinkleyVisitors join the celebration in their best
pirate garb as the scallywags re-enact the 1747 battle, with the
help of Capt. Horatio Sinband and his ship, the Meka II, during the
2013 Beaufort Pirate Invasion in Beaufort, N.C., Aug. 10.

THE CONJURING (R)
The Conjuring is a supernatural horror film based on a true life
story of a family in need of an exorcism in 1970s Rhode Island.
The film tells the tale of world-renowned paranormal
investigators called upon to help a fam-ily terrorized by a dark
presence in a secluded farmhouse.
Patrick Wilson (Pro-metheus, Insidious) and Vera Farmiga (Safe
House, Up in the Air) portray Ed and Lorraine Warren, paranormal
investigators who help a family living in horror at their home.
Forced to confront a powerful demonic entity, the Warrens find
them-selves caught in the most horrifying case of their lives.
Lili Taylor (Pub-lic Enemies) and Ron Livingston (Dinner for
Schmucks) portray Caro-lyn and Roger Perron, a working-class couple
and residents of the remote and run-down farm house in
Harrisville.
Costarring as their five daughters are Stanley Caswell as
Andrea, Hay-ley McFarland as Nancy, Joey King as Christine,
Mackenzie Foy as Cindi, and Kyla Deaver as April.
Shannon Kook plays Drew, Warrens investiga-tive assistant, and
Steve Coulter is Father Gordan.
Also appearing are
Sterling Jerins as Judy, Warrens little girl; and Marion Guyot
as Geor-giana, her grandmother.
John Brotherton co-stars as Brad, the local law enforcement
official who is skeptical of the Perrons claim and the Warrens
tactics.
James Wan (Insidi-ous, The Saw, Death Sentence) directs this
psychological torture piece from a screenplay by Chad and Carey
Hayes (The Reaping), with details taken from the case files from
married demon-ologists Ed and Lorrain Warren, who also
investi-gated the Amityville case.
The Conjuring is a haunted house saga that brings back memories
of the 1970 film Amityville Horror. It is an intense and terrifying
film with disturbing violence and terror.
Now playing at the Patriot 12 and Carmike 16 in Jacksonville
2 GUNS (R)2 Guns is an action
comedy based on a 2008 BOOM! Studios comic series of the same
name.
The film centers on a fragile alliance between two operatives
from competing government agencies, neither of them realizing the
other is working undercover.
Denzel Washington (Flight, Safe House, Training Day) stars as
Robert Bobby Trench, an undercover DEA agent.
Mark Wahlberg (Con-traband, The Fighter,
Broken City) stars as Marcus Stig Stigman, an undercover Naval
intel-ligence officer.
Neither knows the other is an undercover fed, when they are
forced to team up to take down a narcotics syndicate.
The elaborate scam has them investigating one another in the
belief they are both crooks stealing money from the mob.
They begin by robbing the bank where the cartel is apparently
keeping millions and are supposed to steal $3 million in cash
belonging to Mexican drug lord Papi Greco, por-trayed by Edward
James Olmos (The Green Hornet).
However, the two get away with a lot more loot and soon are
wanted by not just the mob but also by the military and the
CIA.
Both of them have been set up and now must clear their
names.
Bill Paxton (Haywire)
costars as Earl, one mys-terious, and vicious, loose cannon who
is in hot pur-suit of the two lawmen to get the mobs money
back.
Also starring are James Marsden (Bach-elorette) as Quince,
Stigmans crooked Navy commander, Paula Pat-ton (Mission
Impos-sible: Ghost Protocal) as Deb, Bobbys estranged
ex and fellow DEA agent, and Fred Ward (Armored) as Adm.
Tuwey.
Icelandic director Baltasar Kormakur (Contraband) reteams with
Wahlberg for this all-star thriller based on the graphic novel
series written by Steven Grant.
Washington and Wahl-berg have great and easy chemistry and are
very likeable and funny as a pair of rival government agents
working under-cover in a huge drug ring operation.
2 Guns is a nitty
gritty, action crime caper with many twists and turns.
The complicated and often hilarious film has great wit and lots
of ten-sion, made even more special by the talented cast.
This is an exciting gem of a movie which comes as a big surprise
as the summer winds down with its endless and lame comic book
blockbusters.

Affairs Office.

Photo by Cpl. Charlie ClarkRetired Sgt. Maj. Marion P.
Carcirieri, manager at the Marine Mart aboard Camp Geiger, stands
in front of a photograph of himself during the Vietnam War in the
Marine Mart staff offi ce, Aug. 5. Carcirieri fought at the Battle
of Okinawa, in the Korean War and in the Vietnam War during his
31-year Marine Corps career.
Carcirieri devotes 68 years of service to Marine CorpsCPL.
CHARLIE CLARKMarine Corps Base Camp Lejeune
The dirt roads and farm lands of Great Depression era Havre de
Grace, Md., where retired Sgt. Maj. Marion P. Carcirieri grew
up are a far cry from the bustling busi-ness of the Marine Mart
aboard Camp Geiger where he is now manager.
Born Dec. 31, 1925, Carcirieri, or Mister Cass as his coworkers
have come to call him, lived in arguably the hardest time in
Americas history.
I grew up on an old dirt farm. Poor peo-ple in them days during
the Depression,
Carcirieri said sternly. There was no radio, no lights, nothing,
with just a little bit of food. You had to work for a living in
those days, even as a boy. I plowed the fields on the farm while I
followed the mule, planted tomatoes, picked corn and did pretty
much anything to stay alive.
It was a hard life, he added.Throughout his adolescence,
Car-
cirieri had a single burning desire: to become a United States
Marine. When America entered World War II, he knew this was his
chance to change from a poor farmer to a hard charging devil
dog.
I cant even explain it, ever since I was born I wanted to be a
Marine,
Carcirieri remembered. I dont know where that came from because
we didnt have electricity, radios or TV in those days ... ever
since I can remember, I wanted to be a Marine.
Carcirieri wasnt of legal age to enlist, but it didnt stop him
from joining his brother and cousin who both signed up a few years
before him.
I didnt exactly tell the truth about my age when I joined the
Marine Corps, Carcirieri chuckled. I was a very young man at that
time, and I wanted to join. I told my recruiter I was 17, but I
really dont remember how old I was when I joined. I can say I was
younger than 17.
The lines of his face, seemingly formed from the pages of
history itself, shaped an arch as Carcirieri smiled while
remembering his boot camp experience.
I went to Parris Island and one of my cousins was a drill
instructor down there at the time, Carcirieri said. I paid hell for
that because my drill instructors found out who I was and that was
bad. But, it was all fun, and I came out of it as a better
person.
After achieving his childhood dream, Carcirieri became an
infantryman with 6th Marine Division during WWII.
