Veterans honored
at Beal Memorial Cemetery
By ANGEL McCURDY
Northwest Florida Daily News
FORT WALTON BEACH — In
the near silence, men and women
made their way to pay tribute to
veterans.
Nearly 1,600 American flags
swayed in the breeze as the bell
chimed 11 times marking the hour
of remembrance for Veterans Day.
“We remember each branch,
each warrior, each story,” said emcee and Army veteran Tom Rice at
Monday’s Veterans Day ceremony.
“Today we thank those who gave.
We can never thank you enough.”
Groups and individuals added
floral tributes under the flagpole at
Beal Memorial Cemetery. Service
members gave a salute; others put
a hand to their heart. Some shed
tears.
“There are 25 million who have
called themselves soldier, airman,
mariner, Merchant Marine — to

la, deputy commander of the 7th “You earned national respect the
day you put on that uniform.”
Kirila said 1.2 million Americans today are active duty. These
men and women serve in the cold,
the caves, the sand, the jungles, in
sometimes-dismal circumstances
and surroundings.
“They have brought down tyrants, liberated nations and brought
freedom to 50 million people,” Kirila
said.
Those who have served this
country, Kirila said, are strong in
heart, mind and character.
“You took a sacred vow, a solemn oath to protect and support the
Constitution of the United States
and defend it against all enemies
and pledge to have faith in what we
protect,” he said. “We remember
the men and women of America’s
armed forces and the great cause
they support — that of liberty.
“Bless you all. Those who wear
the uniform today. Those who
wore the uniform in the past. And
those who will come to wear the
uniform.”

Eglin Hospital was
named as one of three Air
Force Medical Service military treatment facilities
which earned top accreditation honors recently by The
Joint Commission, the leading accreditor of health care
organizations in America,
for exemplary performance
and were named among the
nation’s top performers on
key quality measures.
The MTFs awarded
these honors were the
96th Medical Group; 48th
Medical Group, RAF Lakenheath, England; and the
81st Medical Group, Keesler Air Force Base, Miss.
The Joint Commission
recognized these Air Force
MTFs for their outstanding performance in using
evidence-based clinical
processes that are shown
to improve care for certain
conditions, including heart
attack, heart failure, pneumonia, surgical care, children’s asthma, stroke and
venous thromboembolism,
as well as inpatient psychiatric services.
“I can’t think of a better
recognition,” said Col. Gianna Zeh, the 96th Medical
Group commander. “Being
identified for providing top
performing evidence-based
medicine is outstanding. It
speaks to the commitment
our health care providers
display, a commitment of
trusted care and continued learning. It is truly a
privilege to be their commander. The greater privilege is the trust given by
our patients.”
The three medical
groups are among 1,099
hospitals in the U.S. earning the distinction of Top
Performer on Key Quality Measures for attaining
quality measures because
outstanding patient care is
our top priority,” said Zeh.
The ratings are based
on an aggregation of accountability measure data
reported to The Joint Commission during calendar
year 2012. The list of top
performers increased by
77 percent from last year
and represents 33 percent
of all Joint Commission-accredited hospitals. Each of
the hospitals on the list received a score of 95 percent,
which means the hospital
provided an evidence-based
practice 95 times out of 100
opportunities to provide the
practice. Each accountability measure represents an
evidence-based practice for example, giving aspirin

Friday, November 15, 2013 | THE EGLIN DISPATCH | Page Eglin Hospital treats first dialysis patient
When retired Lt. Col.
Charles Wheelahan visited
Dr. Bhagwan Dass, the 96th
Medical Group’s nephrologist, at Eglin Hospital on the
morning of Oct. 28, they both
knew something was wrong.
Wheelahan was lethargic
and short of breath, and according to Dass, it was clear
he was not himself.
After further examination
and a full diagnostic workup, Dass and his team made
the decision to put Wheelahan on a dialysis treatment.
The next day, Wheelan was
the first patient to receive
such treatment at Eglin
Hospital.
The nephrology specialty service was one of the
new service lines added as
part of the hospital renovations completed this year.
With a nephrologist on staff
and a team of nurses and
technicians to support, dialysis officially became a
reality for hospital patients
in October.
“Dialysis is needed when
the kidneys fail to function
properly,” said Dass. “Without dialysis in the past, some
of our sickest patients had
to be transferred to other
hospitals for care. That is no
longer the case; we are now
able to provide comprehensive care, to all our patients
as nearly all subspecialties
are now available here at
Eglin.”
Adding this service was
no easy task. According to
Maj. Janelle Robertson,
element leader for subspecialties in the 96th MDG, a
dialysis program requires
continuity of care that cannot always be afforded at a
military base, so it was important the proper team be
put in place. Upon establishing the team, it took an “allhands on deck” approach to
create a convincing proposal
to the Air Force to fund and
ultimately bring the dialysis service to Eglin’s 92,000
beneficiaries.
Magnolia Grill
“Adding dialysis was the
obvious next step for us,”
said Robertson. “We wanted to increase the acuity of
patients we see and part of
that is stabilizing patients
with declining renal function. Having this service
now allows us to take care
of the sickest patients.”
Dass and his team of
technicians and nurses are
working to educate the Eglin
community on the dialysis
service now being offered
and its importance at the
hospital.
“It is vastly important
for all the services at Eglin
Hospital to work together, so
we can provide the best care
for our patients,” said Dass.
“Adding dialysis to our services fit right in hand with
all the other capabilities
we have within the hospital
walls including cardiology,
pulmonology, vascular surgery and more. All of these
services are needed to make
Eglin Hospital a center of
excellence.”
Currently, the new dialysis service is only being offered to patients admitted to

Wally Weisenborn was
17 years old when he joined
the Army just after finishing high school in northern
Wisconsin.
The year was 1945 and
World War II had just ended.
“I would have been drafted when I turned 18 anyway,
so I just went ahead and
signed up,” he said.
Weisenborn was assigned to the 8th Cavalry
Regiment 1st Division and
sent to guard Japanese
prisoners at Sugamo Prison
in Tokyo.
The prison was one of
the few structures not damaged during the bombing
and burning of Tokyo before
the war ended.
“Tokyo
was
gone,”
Weisenborn
recalled.
“There was no Tokyo. It was
set on fire. All the buildings
were of flimsy construction
anyway and it did not take
much to burn it down.”
Weisenborn remembers
the despondency of the Japanese after their surrender
and the people who were
desperate for everything
— food, clothing, housing.
Allied occupation forces
took over the prison during
the occupation of Japan to
house suspected war criminals awaiting trial before
the International Military
Tribunal for the Far East.
Most of those charged
with guarding the suspected war criminals were, like
Weisenborn, GIs — 17, 18
and 19 years old — and they
were guarding some of the
leaders of the Japanese war
effort.
Some of the prison’s
famous charges included
Gen. Hideki Tojo, who was
Japan’s prime minister
from 1941 to 1944.
“They were beat at that
point. Our main job was to
keep them from committing
suicide,” said Weisenborn.
After conclusion of the
trials, Sugamo Prison was
used to incarcerate some
of the convicted and was
the site of the execution of
seven inmates sentenced
to death by hanging on Dec.
23, 1948.
When Weisenborn’s tour
was up in 1948, he opted out
of the military. He went to
college on the GI Bill, earning a degree in economics,
and went into banking and
commodities in Chicago. He
moved to Sandestin after he
retired.
“It took a while to get rid
of the hatred, but it’s all over
and in the past,” he said. “I
look back on my service
now as a maturing process
that provided discipline. It
provided me a chance to
grow up.”

FORT LEE, Va. — Commissaries will soon begin
scanning customers’ Department of Defense ID cards
at checkouts as the Defense
Commissary Agency continues its efforts to deliver a 21st
century benefit.
The commissary at Fort
Lee, Va., became the first
store to scan ID cards as
the first part of an agencywide rollout to all stores
that began Nov. 10 and will
be completed by mid-January. Eglin’s commissary also
scans customers’ ID cards
now as well.
Commissary shoppers
are used to showing their ID
cards to establish their eligibility to use the commissary.
By scanning the ID at checkout, DeCA will no longer need
to maintain any personal information on customers in
its computer systems, such
as the system used for customers who write checks.
Scanning will also help
improve the commissary
benefit for all patrons, according to Joseph H. Jeu, the
DeCA director and CEO.
“In addition to verifying
customers as authorized
commissary patrons, we’ll
gain information that will
give us a better understanding of our patrons, allowing
the agency to provide the
commissary benefit more effectively and efficiently,” Jeu
said.
Cross-referenced with
other DOD data, the scan
data will give DeCA useful
information about patron
usage by military service,
along with customer demographics that do not identify
specific personal data of an
individual.
This will eventually help
the agency identify shopping

Doolittle Raiders
honored with ‘final toast’
WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR
FORCE BASE, Ohio (AFNS) — The
Air Force hosted the famed Doolittle Tokyo Raiders’ final toast to
their fallen comrades during an
invitation-only ceremony Nov. 9 at
the National Museum of the U.S.
Air Force.
“Tonight is a night of conflicting
emotions: pride in our Doolittle
Tokyo Raiders, sorrow at the end
of a mission and a myriad of other
emotions,” retired Maj. Lloyd Bryant, the Master of Ceremonies,
said as he opened the ceremony.
On April 18, 1942, 80 men
achieved the unimaginable when
they took off from an aircraft carrier on a top secret mission to bomb
Japan. These men, led by Lt. Col.
James H. “Jimmy” Doolittle, came
to be known as the Doolittle Tokyo
Raiders.
The ceremony was attended
by three of the four living Doolittle Tokyo Raiders: retired Lt. Col.
Richard “Dick” E. Cole, the copilot
of Aircraft No. 1; Lt. Col. Edward
J. Saylor, the engineer-gunner of
Aircraft No. 7; and Staff Sgt. David
J. Thatcher, the engineer-gunner
of Aircraft No. 7. The fourth living
Doolittle Raider, retired Lt. Col.
Robert L. Hite, the copilot of Aircraft No. 16, could not attend the
ceremony due to health issues.
“The Doolittle Raiders are the
epitome of this innovation spirit of
Airmanship. We owe these 80 men
as well as their army and navy
teammates a debt of gratitude,”
said Acting Secretary of the Air
Force Eric Fanning. “Gentlemen,
once again, thank you for what you
did for your country.
“Thank you for representing all
those you served with and thank
you for inspiring all of us everyday
since then. Godspeed.”
Chief of Staff of the Air Force
Gen. Mark A. Welsh III followed
Fanning.
“As far as I’m concerned, this
is the greatest professional honor
Desiree N. Palacios | USAF
The Doolittle Tokyo Raiders shared their last and final toast at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force Nov. 9 in Dayton, Ohio.
I’ve ever had to speak here with
this crowd at this event,” Welsh
said.
“The very first book I read as
a young guy was Thirty Seconds
over Tokyo. It was given to me by
my father, also a World War II vet,
with the words that I should read
it closely because this is this what
America is all about. I’ve never
forgotten those words.
“The Doolittle raiders have
been celebrated in book and in
journals … in magazines … in various papers. They’ve had buildings
named after them … had streets
named after them. People play
them in movies.
“They hate to hear this, but
Jimmy Doolittle and his Raiders
are truly lasting American heroes,
but they are also Air Force heroes. They pioneered the concept
of global strike … the idea that no
target on earth is safe from American air power.
“In the last two weeks gentlemen, I’ve received emails from a
number of today’s bomber crew
members. They asked me to assure you and your families this
evening that your legacy is strong
and safe with them.
Welsh ended his speech by
thanking the Raiders for their service to the nation.
“Sir (Cole), for you and the
brothers beside you … your service was a gift to a nation at war …
the family and friends who stood
proudly beside you since and to
hundreds of thousands of American Airmen who continue to stand
on your shoulders and hope to
live to your example. Airpower …
the raiders showed us the way,”
he said.
Fanning and Welsh presented
the Doolittle Raiders with an Eagle as a token of their appreciation
and gratitude.
Cole was then asked to open
the 1896 Cognac and give a toast.
The year of the bottle of cognac is
Doolittle’s birth year.
“Gentlemen, I propose a toast,”
Cole said. “To the gentlemen we
lost on the mission and those who
have passed away since.
“Thank you very much and may
they rest in peace,” he ended.
The 80 silver goblets in the
ceremony were presented to the
Raiders in 1959 by the city of Tucson, Ariz. The Raiders’ names are
engraved twice, the second upside-down. During the ceremony,
white-gloved cadets poured cognac into the participants’ goblets. Those of the deceased were
turned upside-down.
The Doolittle Raiders received
a standing ovation from the crowd,
but before closing the ceremony
retired Col. Carroll “C.V” Glines,
the historian for the Doolittle
Raiders and a distinguished author, said, “This concludes the
ceremony and also completes a
mission.”

Brawn behind the QF-16 spearhead
AF aerial target drone program
By Chrissy Cuttita
Team Eglin Public Affairs
Editor’s note: This is part two of two
in a series of articles focused on the QF-16
software development and testing. In part
one, we looked at the “brains” behind the
QF-16, how Eglin engineers develop cutting edge 4th gen aerial target drone software. In part two we look at the “brawn”
behind the QF-16, how pilot experience
arms cutting edge 4th gen target drone
software development and testing.
Although the Air Force QF-16
flies pilotless in the skies over the
Emerald Coast, they are not void of
human contact.
Eglin’s Gulf Range Drone Control System is used to track and
control aerial target drones, collect
and display time space position
information data for aircraft and
surface vehicles, and display aircraft control instrumentation.
The GRDCS development
team of the 96th Range Control
Squadron relies on their warfighting customers’ feedback to make
the QF-16 program a success for
the Air Force and the warfighters
operating the aerial target drones
from subordinate units of the 53rd
Weapons Evaluation Group at
Tyndall AFB, Fla. who reports to
the 53rd Wing headquartered at
Eglin.
“They took a basic F-4 and
suited it for an F-16,” said Matt
Lacourse, an 82nd Aerial Targets
Squadron pilot, who has been
working with the software developers. “The team is very responsive
to any requests we make. Every
time we’ve found something, they
quickly turn it around.”
Local pilots help engineers
ensure realistic warfighting capabilities are incorporated into the
software development as they
experience the product real time
while controlling aircraft from
their location. At Tyndall, controllers rely on this same software for
tracking and controlling a QF-16
from wheels up to wheels down, in-
Master Sgt. J. Scott Wilcox | USAF
A QF-16 Full Scale Aerial Target from the 82nd Aerial Targets Squadron flies over the Gulf of Mexico during its first unmanned flight at Tyndall Air Force Base Sept. 19. The 82nd ATRS operates the Department of
Defense’s only full-scale aerial target program. The QF-16 will provide a more accurate representation of
real world threats for testing and training.
cluding all maneuvers in between.
“Our QF-16 test pilot team of
both government and contractor
civilians provide post-flight feedback on the performance of the
software to our partners at Boeing,” said Lt. Col. Joseph Kendall,
the 53rd Test Support Squadron
commander. “They compare the
actual aircraft response with what
the ground controllers were attempting to accomplish and evaluate this against performance
requirements. Our GRDCS experts work hand-in-hand with the
QF-16 GRDCS team, who routinely
travel to Tyndall, to help determine
the root causes and appropriate
software fixes.”
Unique to Team Eglin is the
capability for acquisition and engineering personnel to see their
products deployed in a field environment versus other jobs where
they may only be developing
models and simulating a virtual
scenario.
During auto control, the GRDCS
system follows a flight path in the
sky and using the navigation capability, uplinks pitch, roll, altitude,
airspeed and other commands
to the aircraft. Meanwhile on the
ground, the controllers monitor
the situation and stand by to take
control of the aircraft in the event
of an aircraft malfunction (perhaps
one caused by a missile strike).
“They have the ability to manually control the aircraft from the
ground just like they were in the
cockpit,” said Jeff Stebbins, Jeff
Stebbins, GRDCS contractor and
QF-16 Integration Team Lead who
has watched controllers use the
software his team developed in the
field to get QF-16s airborne. “We
control pitch and roll with a stick
and throttle inputs provide engine
control.”
Developmental and operational
testing for the Air Force’s QF-16
program is performed by the 82nd
ATRS at Tyndall and their detachment at Holloman AFB, N.M.
Boeing has modified six F-16s
into the QF-16 configuration. Lowrate initial production is scheduled
to begin by the end of the year, with
first production deliveries in 2015.
The aircraft are initially delivered in the manned configu-
ration, and are converted to the
unmanned configuration prior to
live fire missions. The unmanned
configuration is called a NULLO
, which stands for Not Under Live
Local Operation.
“The QF-16 risk reduction efforts culminated in estimated savings of $350 million through early
integration and involvement,” said
Rick Ulrich, the 96th Range Control Group director. “We also provided more than 40 software drops
throughout the contractor testing
and developmental test and evaluation phases, fine-tuning control
algorithms for takeoffs, maneuvers, and landings that led to the
‘picture-perfect’ unmanned flight
Sept. 19.”
The software developed by Eglin engineers met all expectations
during the first unmanned QF-16
Full Scale Aerial Target flight, according to Mac MacWilliam, operational test and evaluation pilot for
the QF-16 test program.
“It was probably the best
landing I’ve ever seen,” he said.
“GRDCS had a big in hand in making that happen.”
Not every pilot gets to fly the
new aerial target drone from the
ground. Currently, only three of
the 11 QF-4 pilots at Tyndall are
trained to pilot an unmanned QF16. It takes controllers six months
to a year to train on using the system developed by GRDCS.
“It is more difficult to develop
and control an unmanned combat fighter jet (as an aerial target
drone) than most drones in the Air
Force inventory.” said Stebbins.
“The fighter is a high-speed highlymaneuverable aircraft while most
drones are primarily used for
surveillance. These drones typically fly much slower with little
maneuverability.”
The QF-16 leverages current
F-16 Fighting Falcon combat capabilities to provide a realistic threat
to aid in their training and weapons effectiveness evaluations.
“A fourth generation threat represented target is the capability
we need,” said MacWilliam. “The
maneuverability and sustaining
energy are much better. We are
back in the 21st century.”
Pilots at the 82nd have been flying QF-4s since 1997.
The 53rd WEG expects QF-4
missions start phasing out in 2015
and their pilots to be trained to
transition to QF-16s immediately
following. Their unit at Holloman
AFB will continue to fly QF-4s until
fiscal year 2017.
The 53rd WEG is responsible
for conducting the Air Force’s Airto-Air Weapons System Evaluation
Program known as Combat Archer
and the Air-to-Ground version
known as Combat Hammer. For
future Combat Archer exercises,
the 82nd will use the QF-16 in the
full scale aerial target role along
with their BQM-167 in the SubScale Aerial Target role.
According to Boeing, 98 retired
F-16s are under contract to be converted. They will be equipped to fly
and land multiple times in manned
and unmanned configurations before their final missions against live
weapons on a controlled range.

DoD’s balk on compensation reform irks commissioners
Last
year’s
defense authorization
act directed
that not later than nine
months after it established the
commission, which
meant Nov. 1, the secretary
of defense “shall transmit”
recommendations for modernizing compensation and
retirement.
Instead, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel’s deputy,
Ashton B. Carter, sent a
letter summarizing recent
pay and benefit initiatives
the department had tried
to push through Congress
with limited success. These
included a modest cap
on the next pay raise and
Tom
Philpott
a failed attempt to raise
TRICARE fees for military
retirees, particularly for
retirees younger than 65. More proposals on pay and
benefits will be included
in the fiscal 2015 defense
budget request due to
Congress early next year,
Carter promised.
That letter, Buyer
said, left him “incredibly
disappointed.”
“When the Secretary
of Defense statutorily is to
give guidance, and doesn’t,
then the commission has
to step forward and lead,”
said Buyer, who served
on the House Armed Services Committee for years
and chaired its personnel
subcommittee.
“But how bold can we be,
realistically,” Buyer asked,
if the Obama administration
opts to “stay silent.”
Carter, in his letter to
Commission Chairman
Alphonso Maldon Jr., did
note that department staff
has “expertise on military
retirement. Although we
have not made any specific
retirement proposals, we
would be glad to discuss our
thoughts on the military retirement system informally
with the commission.”
That caution rankled
more commissioners than
Buyer.
“Disappointing would
be a fair description, absolutely,” said Commissioner
Mike Higgins, a retired Air
Force officer who also retired recently from the professional staff of the House
Armed Services Committee
where he worked compensation issues. “This is
clearly not up to anyone’s
expectations.”
However, Higgins said
his “confidence is pretty
high” DoD will propose
more substantial reforms,
presumably in time for the
commission to consider
them before it must send its
own recommendations to
the president and Congress
next May.
Buyer noted that the
commission schedule
doesn’t leave time for Congress to adopt any recommendations before 2015,
after the 2014 elections. He speculated that Hagel
couldn’t win consensus
from the services on sweeping compensation changes,
including a redesign of military retirement for future
generations.

officer who served as assistant secretary of defense

that the commission would

“Obviously we would
have loved to have had

not having it certainly is not
a showstopper for us. And,
in fact, I’d like to believe
that something may even
still be forthcoming” from
the department.
A defense official did
note again that compensation costs, including for
health care, now accounts
for almost 50 percent of
defense budgets. Without
reform “that percentage
could rise, impacting critical readiness and modernization efforts.”

The Department of
Defense disappointed
members of the new
Military Compensation and
Retirement Modernization
Commission by failing this
month to propose a fresh
set of ideas for reforming
pay and benefits, as Congress had directed.
The anticipated Pentagon proposals were to serve
as a kind of launch pad for
the commission’s work,
which entered a new phase
this week when the nine
commissioners held their
first public hearings.
“When the trumpet
is silent who will follow,”
quipped Commissioner
Steve Buyer, former Republican congressman from
Indiana, when invited to
comment on the department’s cautious response
on deadline.

Maldon said all options

force-shaping tool than
the current retirement
system, which provides
generous benefits but only
to members who serve at
least 20 years. Proponents
for change have argued
it would be more fair and
cost-effective to vest members with some portable
retirement benefits earlier,
perhaps after five or 10
years’ service, and then
use targeted incentives,
like gate pays or career
bonuses, to keep the right
mix of skills for 20 years and
beyond.
The commission heard
these same kinds of ideas
on the second day of public

childcare, could be streamlined across DoD. Other

President Obama in midSeptember did provide a
set of written principles for
commissioners to follow. Maldon alluded to these in
explaining the commission
will have three priorities in
proposing changes: protect
the long-term viability of
the all-volunteer force; provide a high quality of life for
members and families; and
ensure “fiscal sustainability” of compensation and
retirement programs.
“We want this to be the
most comprehensive review that can possibly be
done, hopefully for the next
20 years,” Maldon said in
our interview. The “foremost objective,” he added,
is to keep the force filled
with quality personnel.
Current retirees are not
to be impacted by any alternative retirement plan the
commission might propose,
according to its guiding
principles. And members
already in service when
changes take effect could
stay under the current retirement plan. But Maldon
said they also could “volunteer” to accept an alternative plan.

AF Portal goes mobile, gets face-lift

In January 2010, the Air

BASE, Mass. — Expected to log-in using a common
to launch by the end of
2013, the Global Combat
Support System-Air Force,
or GCSS-AF, is rolling out
a revamped portal, which
simplifies navigation, improves performance on
low-bandwidth connections
and works from mobile
devices.
“The old system had become cluttered, difficult to
navigate and was in need of
an update,” said Danielle
Dunn, GCSS service area
lead. “The new system is
orderly, simple to navigate,
and updated with a fresh
look and feel.”
With more than 750,000
active users and an average of 400,000 weekly logins, the Air Force Portal is
the service’s primary Web
gateway, giving Airmen
worldwide secure access to

access card or public key
infrastructure certificate.
While the same requirement is still in effect, the
redesigned portal will now
support PKI/CAC-enabled
mobile devices, such as
smart phones and tablets.
When users log-in on
a mobile device, the portal will detect the device’s
screen size and adapt the
display automatically, paring down the feature and
functionality that works
best for that device.
“The team studied
industry trends and acknowledged the shift to
mobile information access
anywhere, on any device,”
said 2nd Lt. Rett Rayhill,
Air Force Portal service
area lead. “In order for us
to remain relevant, it was a
logical next step to support

units within the United
States.
According to Rayhill,
the new system will continue to enable Airmen to
do their job whether deployed or in the U.S.
“It will provide a more
consistent user experience
to forward operating bases
as afforded to those stateside,” he said.
In addition to the system operating on a low
bandwidth and from CAC/
PKI-enabled mobile devices, users will notice that
the AF Portal was reorganized and streamlined to
make the system easier
to use and navigate — an-
other key component to the
redesign.
“The look and feel has
been updated to reflect
today’s Air Force,” Dunn
said. “The design helps users find their applications
and information more
quickly and efficiently.”
The updated navigation
menu clearly highlights
news and announcements,
base/organization and
functional areas, career
and training, life and fitness and references. “My
Stuff,” one of the new design features, focuses on
user personalization by
providing quick access to
each user’s alerts, workspaces, applications and
favorites.
Another new feature
within the system focuses
on information sharing.
Users will be able to join
groups and compile information then transfer it to
other users before leaving
a location — similar to a
continuity binder.
“This new portal will
definitely increase productivity while enhancing
Airmen’s personal and
professional endeavors,”
Dunn said.

tions in the Philippines in
the wake of a deadly typhoon that has left more
than 1,000 dead, defense
officials announced
yesterday.
The support, provided
at the request of the Philippines government, will
initially focus on surface
maritime search and
rescue, medium-heavy
helicopter lift support,
airborne maritime SAR,
fixed-wing lift support and
logistics enablers, officials
said.
The Defense Department is working in coordination with the U.S. Agency
for International Development and U.S. ambassador
in Manila, they said, and
will continue to monitor
the effects of Typhoon Haiyan while standing ready
to help the Philippines
recover from the monster
storm.
Super Typhoon Haiyan
hammered six central islands Nov. 8, devastating
the city of Tacloban and
leaving a huge storm surge
and widespread flooding in
its wake.
Secretary of State John
Kerry immediately offered
assurance of U.S support,
and Pentagon Press Secretary George Little told
reporters that day the U.S.
military was prepared to
respond, if requested.
Little noted that U.S.
forces frequently provide
direct relief and recovery
support during and after
natural disasters.
Nowhere in the world
are natural disasters as
prevalent as in the AsiaPacific region. It sits on
the earthquake-prone
“Ring of Fire” and is tormented by hurricanes,
cyclones, tsunamis, floods
and mudslides.
As part of its extensive
regional engagement, PACOM works closely with
regional nations to promote disaster preparedness and build resilience;
and to respond quickly and
effectively should disaster
strike. One of the best ways
to do that is through the
exercise program, command officials said.
“It’s the right thing to
do,” particularly in light
of frequent and often devastating natural disasters
that strike across the region, Navy Adm. Samuel J.
Locklear III, the PACOM
commander, told American
Forces Press Service last
week.
“Also, if something is
going to happen in the Pacific that is going to create
a churn in the security environment, the most likely
thing will be a humanitarian disaster problem of
some kind – whether it
is horrific typhoons or
tsunamis or floods or
something else,” Locklear
said.
PACOM helps regional
nations deal with such disasters regularly, Locklear
reported. While sometimes
that involves deploying
forces to provide aid, he
said the support is often in
the form of advice and assistance, training, satellite
imagery or intelligence,
surveillance and reconnaissance support.
The Philippines is one
of five U.S. allies in the
Asia-Pacific region.
During his visit there in
August, Defense Secretary
Chuck Hagel praised the
“deep and unbreakable alliance” between the two
countries, calling it “an
anchor for peace and stability and prosperity in this
region.”
“Our close ties to the
Philippines have been
forged through a history
of shared sacrifice and
common purpose,” he
added, “and continuing to
strengthen the close partnership between our nations is an important part
of America’s long-term
strategy of rebalancing in
the Asia-Pacific.”
