More than six decades have passed since Roy Robinson first set foot on

the sandy beaches of Betio in the Re-public of Kiribati, part of the Tarawa Atoll. Today, Betio bares little resem-blance to what it used to be, or what it was to Robinson 65 years ago.

Just past his 18th birthday, Pfc. Robinson, a rifleman assigned to 2nd Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division, was on one of the many Higgins Boats that landed on Red Beach Two in 1943. All Robin-son remembers about Betio's land-scape are the Japanese fortifications that once lined the coast.

"I can't believe this is Tarawa," Robinson said with a grin. "We've got to be on the wrong island. Be-cause the only thing here last time was sand, trees and pill boxes."

Robinson's memory, along with his hearing, has faded a bit over the last 65 years, but the former Marine's thoughts

drifted back to a place described by him in three simple words.

"It was Hell," he said. "All we could think about was what the hell are we doing here and how do we get off this place."

Thinking back, Robinson said

there were a few things he knows helped him through the battle.

"Brotherhood and camaraderie helped to get us through it,". Robin-son said. "We had to pay attention to our left, right and front, but I. knew they had my back," Robinson said,

referring to the Marines charging for-ward from the rear.

Robinson was one of 35,000 Marines, sailors and soldiers who stormed the shores of Betio Nov. 20, 1943. Exactly 65 years later, the Ma-rines once again landed on Betio.

More than 30 Marines and sailors from the III Marine Expeditionary Force traveled to Betio, to pay tribute to the service members who battled there many years ago.

A ceremony commemorating the 65th anniversary of the Battle of Tarawa was held Nov. 20 at a small memorial standing in a nondescript field near the shores of Betio.

Nearly 1,000 local villagers, main-ly children, flocked to see what all the pomp and circumstance was about as more than 100 distinguished visitors attended the ceremony.

Republic of Tarawa President An-ote Tong, Adm. Timothy Keating, commander, U.S. Pacific Command, and Lt. Gen. Richard C. Zilmer, commanding general for III MEF and Marine Corps Bases Japan, were among the guests in attendance.

Marines with Regimental Combat Team 5 finished the final demilitarization of the Haditha Dam located along the Euphrates River.

Maj. Gen. • Martin Post, deputy commanding general for Multi National Force-West, signed over the dam Dec. 3 to Iraqi government officials and thereby capped the turnover of dam operations and security.

Al-Kumanji Mawafek Mo-hammed^director of real estate, and several other mem ben; of the Iraqi government, along with representatives from the Iraqi Police and Iraqi army, at-tended on behalf of the Iraqi government to sign the final pa-perwork.

"I just want i0.s.ay thank you to all of the Marines who have been here over the years and say how much (coalition forces) ap-preciated the leadership of the gentlemen who have been here the entire time running this fa-cility and coordinating with the Marines and coalition forc-es. They have done just a won-derful job during tough times to keep this facility up and run-ning," said Maj. Gen. Post.

Coalition forces have been responsible for the dam since 2003, and during that time, the dam housed thousands of mili-tary personnel.

"The dam was a piece of key terrain because of its position on the river and also because it provides around one-third of Iraq's electricity," said Master Sgt. Joe Lopez, the staff non-commissioned officer in charge, Haditha Dam Mayors Cell, RCT-5. "Our presence here has also acted as a deterrent for people trying to smuggle things down the river."

More than 90 Marines and sailors from Company G, 26th Marine Ex-peditionary Unit's Battalion Land-ing Team 2nd Battalion, 6th' Marine Regiment, participated in bilateral in-fantry training with a Middle Eastern nation, from Nov. 18-24.

"We were able to integrate with them and provide feedback on how they can improve their training and best utilize the weapons systems they currently have organic to their units," said Capt. Anthony Johnston, the company's commanding officer. "In the time that was available, we were able to work in our own sus-tainment training as the motorized company conducted mounted oper-ations on the ranges that were avail-

able. Both the U.S. Marines and (the Middle Eastern military members) were able to demonstrate their ca-pabilities and exchange ideas at the tactical level, which was an incred-ibly positive experience."

The bilateral training began with squad attacks and escalated to a full-on live fire exercise.

Even though there was a'variety of training events, the Marines' exercise focused on squad attacks and team-work. The platoons also participated in dismounted platoon attacks with the Middle Eastern platoons.

"We were able to run a platoon motorized attack," said Johnston. The platoon established control of the company's area of operations, which had been a site of previous 'enemy' activity. Upon receiving a report on the current 'enemy' activity, the pla-

Focus on fire safety this holiday season December marks the begin-

ning of the holiday season, which includes Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa and New Year's Eve. Using data that was reported to the United States Fire Administration from 2002 to 2004, the yearly national fire loss for December is esti-mated at $990 million. During this three-year period, these losses result from an estimated 128,700 fires that occurred in December and required a fire department response resulting in approximately 1,650 inju-ries and 415 fatalities. The dif-ference between life and death can result from following basic fire safety tips and warnings set forth by fire departments across the United States.

Cooking is the leading cause of residential building fires in December, accounting for 41 percent of fires, followed by heating fires at 28 percent, open flame fires at 9 percent, and in-cendiary/ suspicious fires at per-cent. There is also more focus placed on the preparation of the perfect holiday meal by even the most experienced. Cooks in the kitchen may find themselves distracted with holiday guests, entertaining, and last-minute details. Unfortunately, these distractions can turn into fire hazards all too quickly. Cooking fires routinely start to increase around Thanksgiving and peak

THE

in December. Holiday rituals traditionally

use candles to create a festive and warm atmosphere and are an open flame source that can lead to holiday tragedies when not monitored properly. Chil-dren and pets are attracted to candles which can be especially dangerous during the holidays when candle use . increases. Three percent of all residen-tial building fires during the holidays and winter months in-volve candles as the initial heat source. In most eases, candles lead to residential building fires when they are left unattended or ignite nearby combustibles, resulting in more candle-related fixe incidents in December than in any other month. Consider the following recommendations for candle fire safety during the December and winter months:

- Never use candles to deco-rate a Christmas tree.

- Keep candles inside a 1-foot circle, free from decorations and other combustible materials.

- Use sturdy candle hold-ers that won't tip over easily and are large enough to col-lect candle wax.

- Keep candles up high and out of reach of chil-dren and pets.

- Extinguish candles af-ter use.

- D o not leave candles unat tended.

As a reminder, the use of any type of open flame device for aromatic purposes, to include all candles and incense, is pro-hibited without prior approval from the Fire & Emergency Ser-vices Division per Base Order 11320.1L. The following are the only exceptions for candle and incense use: clubs and dining facilities if properly arranged, by permit for ceremonial purposes, and in the family housing area. Questions can be directed to As-sistant Chief Zurek at 451-3320.

Choosingtheright Christmas tree has also become a tradition with many families. This choice begins by selecting an artificial or a freshly cut Christmas tree. If the choice is an artificial tree, ensure it is labeled, certified, or identified by the manufacturer as fire retardant. If you prefer a freshly cut tree, ensure the green needles do not fall off when touched and before placing it in the tree stand cut off one to two inches from the base of the trunk. Freshly cut trees need extra attention to ensure it gets watered daily. No matter what type of Christmas tree is select-ed placement should be at least three feet away from any heat source such as fireplaces, radia-tors, candles, heat vents or lights and your Christmas tree should not be blocking any exit.

Once the Christmas tree has been properly set up, it is time to

add the lights and decorations. There are many fire safety con-siderations to consider, espe-cially with the lights. Only use lights that have the label of an independent testing laboratory, such as Underwriters Labora-tories. Some lights are only for indoor or outdoor use, but not both. Replace any string of lights with worn or broken cords or loose bulb connections. Con-nect no more than three strands of mini string sets and a maxi-mum of 50 bulbs for screw-in bulbs. Never use lit candles to decorate your Christmas tree and always turn off Christmas tree lights before leaving home or going to bed.

After the holiday season has passed, Christmas trees should be disposed of as soon as pos-sible When the Christmas tree begins dropping many needles, it is an indication that the Christmas tree has dried. Dried-out Christmas trees are a fire danger and should not be left in the home or garage, or placed outside against the home. Also, ensure you bring outdoor elec-trical lights inside after the holi-days to prevent future electrical and fire hazards at the same time increasing their life span.

From all of us at the Fire and Emergency Services Di-vision, we wish you and your families a happy and fire safe holiday season.

As the Marines in first platoon, Com-pany A, 2nd Assault Amphibian Bat-talion, advanced to secure the northern bridge in Nasiriyah, Iraq, March 23, 2003, it seemed to then-Seaman Apprentice Luis Fonseca, a corpsman, that all hell had broken loose.

"As we came up and over the bridge, we ran right into an ambush," he said from his current assignment aboard the USS Bataan. "They threw all they had at us — small-arms fire, heavy machine-gun fire, rocket-propelled grenades, mortars and artillery rounds."

That's when Fonseca got the call from Gunnery Sgt. David Myers, asking him to check on the Marines in one of the vehicles that had been hit.

Trading his communications helmet for Kevlar, the corpsman on his first deploy-ment grabbed his medical bag and headed for the vehicle, which by then was in flames. Five Marines had suffered at least shrapnel wounds.

"I noticed I had two patients with par-

tial lower-leg amputations, one with flash burns to his eyes, and all had shrapnel wounds," Fonseca said. "I applied tourni-quets on the two Marines with the partial leg amputations and in-structed the other Marines around to apply battle dress-ings on the others who were wounded."

Fonseca decided to move the wounded Marines to his vehicle to get them out of the middle of what be-came a six-and-a-half-hour firefight. After reassessing wounds and administering morphine to the two troops with partial leg amputa-tions, Fonseca got a call that another vehicle had been hit.

Normally, the column is lined up in nu-merical order. In the midst of the firefight. as the vehicles maneuvered to gain an ad-vantage, they got out of order.

Fonseca couldn't find one of the vehicles and returned to his own just as the enemy got what he described as four lucky hits.

Fonseca

"Two of them were on our right side. One was on our center top hatch All three were 122mm mortar rounds," he said "The fourth and final round that disabled

the truck was a recoilless rifle round that blew up our transmission."

When the smoke cleared, all the wounded Marines were transferred to another vehicle and moved out of the area, all but one.

"I picked up the last Ma-rine ... and carried him to a ditch." Fonseca said. "The Marine and I sat in the ditch for about 30 minutes before I could get another vehicle to pick us up and drive us out of there."

When Fonseca had gotten all his patients to the 2nd Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment s corpsman, he turned around and headed back to the fight, where he rejoined his pla-toon.

"We lost about 18 Marines that day," he said. "Fifteen others were wounded and left the battlefield, and about 10 others fwhoi

PERSIAN GULF

Recon reaches out CPL. JASON D. MILLS 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit

Recruit training teaches ev-ery Marine he is a riflemen. No matter what their everyday jobs, they are first and fore-most Marines.

However, for many Marines who are not infantrymen, it can sometimes be difficult to get out of the office and into the field.

Knowing this, the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit's Recon platoon conducted a static helicopter rope suspen-sion technique training exer-cise and opened it to all parts of the MEU aboard the USS Iwo Jima, Dec. 4.

"Training in all aspects of the Marine Corps prepares our Marines and sailors to conduct these missions by developing new talents and refreshing old skills, enabling them to be a more effective and efficient fighting force," said Gunnery Sgt. Robert Langlois, the re-con platoon sergeant.

For the exercise, MEU Ma-rines positioned a CH-46E Sea Knight helicopter over the lowered elevator of the Iwo Jima's flight deck. Suspend-ing the rope from the aft of the chained down aircraft, the HRST masters conducted the training in a safe environment while simulating fast roping from an airborne helicopter, similar to what Marines do in combat.

The fast roping class was conducted to maintain profi-ciency for the recon platoon's qualified HRST Masters and provide initial training to MEU command element per-sonnel; some of whom had never fast roped prior to the exercise.

"(Command Element) Ma-rines were invited to partici-pate to provide static fast rope training to Marines and sailors who very rarely get the oppor-tunity to conduct HRST train-ing," Langlois said. "Most Ma-rines and sailors within the CE

are limited to the amount of training they can receive due to the rigorous duty schedules they must fill on a day-to-day basis. The training provided these Marines and sailors the opportunity to participate in a training event that breaks up the monotony of their sched-ules and have a little fun while doing it."

Marines are called upon of-ten to conduct a variety of mis-sions throughout the world, which is why it's important for Marines of every military oc-

cupational specialty to get this kind of training, explained Cpl. Carlos E. Royes Thomas, a command element Marine.

"As Marines, training is what we do," he said, "And no matter what our job is (as long) as it makes us more ef-ficient and mission capable, it is important."

The 26th MEU is current-ly deployed aboard the Iwo Jima Expeditionary Strike Group in the Persian Gulf in support of Maritime Security operations.

Nearly 300 Marines from the 26th Marine Ex-peditionary Unit debarked the USS Iwo Jima for a weeklong training exercise with a Middle Eastern na-tion, Nov. 18-24.

The purpose of the ex-ercise was to build a rap-port with the host nation, explained Lt. Col. Andrew Kostic, the commanding officer of Battalion Land-ing Team 2nd Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment, the Ground Combat Element of the 26th MEU

"The more countries we have good relations with, the better off we are as a nation and as a military," he said.

The exercise was a bi-lateral training exercise with a company of US. Marines and a company

of host nation Marines, Kostic explained.

The majority of the Ma-rines participating in the ex-ercise were from Company G, BLT 2nd Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment, who's Marines took part in a va-riety of training events in-cluding mechanized squad attacks and team build-ing exercises. Later in the week, the platoons had the chance to join in dismount-ed platoon attacks with the Middle Eastern platoons.

Cpl. Luis Hernandez said he felt the training benefited Marines of both nations.

"It was good training for us and the (host nation) Marines," said the Co. G squad leader. "It was good to get some training in."

The MEU's 81mm mor-tar platoon also had the opportunity to train with the host nation Marines.

The US. Marines shl the same gun line anc I casionally had the opp< nity to combine efforts [

"The mortars integr | extremely well," the talion commander i "They integrated mc ( squads. A couple of L Marines from each sqj went down and intera ] with the (host nation) rines."

Despite a few minor -backs the operation v/;j resounding success, Kostic.

"(It was a) good d I onstration of interactioi| the bilateral training v j the Marines from Co. | 81s and the (host nati| Marines," he said.

Marines with 3rd Intelligence Battalion conduct training exercises during the Jungle Warfare endurance course.

CAMP GONSALVES, OKINAWA, JAPAN Story and photos by LANCE CPL. TYLER J. H LA VAC III Marine Expeditionary Force

Marines from ground sensor platoon, 3rd Intelligence Battal-ion, III Marine Ex-peditionary Force,

proved they can survive the jungle when they completed the Jungle Survival Skills course Nov, 19, and Jungle Skills course Nov. 21 at Camp Gonsalves.

During the Jungle Warfare Training Center's survival course, the 19 Marines spent their first two days in the class-room learning how to find food and shelter in the jungle. Instructors also taught the Marines how to find water, build a fire, make shelters and catch! skin and clean wild game such as rab-bits and chickens.

The survival course culminated with a practical application of the skills they had learned and the added bonus of going 24 hours without eating to teach them about dealing with hunger in the jungle.

Sgt. David Phillips, a ground sen-sor operator with the platoon, said the survival course taught the Marines how to deal with stress and helped them de-velop an "I can" mindset.

This course has been a great train-ing experience for us, particularly for our junior Marines," Phillips said. "As ground sensor Marines, our job in-volves us going out into enemy territory to install information gathering sensors, which could potentially lead to a situa-tion m which we would be stuck out in the jungle alone and have to survive."

After completing the survival course, the Marines immediately tackled the Jungle Skills course. The course con-sists of a day of classroom training and a day of practical application, and is de-signed to teach the Marines how to con-duct combat operations in the jungle.

The practical application kicked off early Nov. 21 as the Marines ran through the timed endurance course portion of the Jungle Skills course, which tests

everything the Marines learned in the classroom. The endurance course began with the Marines racing across hasty rope bridges and rappelling down steep hills. The Marines then swam through underwater culverts and navigated their way through barbed wire obstacles.

Near the end of the course, the Marines had to carry a simulated ca-sualty on a stretcher made of camou-flaged uniform blouses through thick mud and up steep hills. The Marines finished the course in four hours and 30 minutes, which is considered a fast time, especially since the Marines completed both the survival and skills classes back to back, which no unit has done before.

"They had a really great time out there, said 1 st Lt. Mark Patridge, assis-tant director for the JWTC. "Consider-ing these Marines had done the survival course and gone without food days pri-or, we had expected them to finish in about six hours, as most units who do the course normally finish within a five to six-hour mark. They had the guts to finish this course strongly."

The Marines attributed their quick finish to a strong sense of camarade-rie and the number of junior Marines within the unit who took charge, both of which were the result of training at the JWTC together.

"This training was really great for us as we came together as a unit and learned how to push ourselves," said Lance Cpl. Caleb Armstrong, a ground sensor operator who also functioned as a unit team leader during the training. We got rained on a lot, were constantly

cold and went without food, but no one in the unit argued or fought. This was a great morale builder for us, and we are definitely going to come out here again in the future and beat our course time."

The two courses are offered by the 3rd Marine Division's JWTC as a way of teaching service members not only the tactics of jungle fighting, but how to survive in the jungle if they are ever lost or separated from their unit.

cilities on base. The West Coast battalion

has oversight of about 200 Marines and has a similar barracks construction project planned.

In the units, Marines spend their days concentrating on healing and transitioning to the next phase of their lives, whether that means recover-ing and staying on active duty or leaving the service.

For those not reporting di-rectly to the units, Marine pa-tient affairs teams reach out to all major medical facilities. And, Marines are based in each of the Veterans Admin-istration polytrauma centers in California, Florida, Min-nesota and Virginia.

Also, the Marines have based 30 "super case man-agers" across the country in support cells to manage some of its most difficult cases. The case managers are based in communities where there is a large demographic of Ma-rines recovering from their wounds. They work out of their homes, or out of bor-rowed office space. But their primary job is to be out meet-ing with Marines face-to-face to establish personal relation-ships, Boyle said.

To further extend its reach into the communities where former and current Marines are recovering close to home, the Corps enlisted active-duty representatives stationed at its 186 reserve sites across the country. These Marines are responsible for the train-ing and readiness of the re-serve units to which they are

assigned, but they also are tasked with checking on re-covering Marines at hospitals and at home, including being on-call for help. Such calls sometimes come from fam-ily and friends when a Ma-rine begins having difficulties coping with stress or a brain injury whose symptoms crop up months after their release from service.

Topping it off, the Marines have more than 100 "home-town links," or reservists, who spend their part-time duty helping former Marines find jobs, talking to civic groups, working with the media and other community relations work. They also can make house-calls, Boyle said.

"Within in a couple of hours, we can have a Marine standing on a Marine's door-step, helping with his prob-lem," Boyle said. "This re-ally does allow us the ability

to reach out and touch. It is nice to be able to not just sit here and talk to a Marine on the phone. Sometimes he may respond or may not respond, but if somebody shows up at his door, sits down in his liv-ing room ~ that makes a huge difference."

The cross-country network is tied together by a massive computer tracking system launched this year. The Web-based system allows leaders to track a Marine as he moves through his recovery process. This is backed by a fall-time operations center, also based at Quantico. Designed much like a combat operations cen-ter, it monitors every case within the regiment.

Most unique to the Marine Corps' program is its 24-hour per day, seven-day-per-week call center on Quantico. The other services have call cen-ters, but the Marine's center

but have since left the service In the past, "We'd meet

them at the door, we'd shake their hand and hand them a (record of their service) and say Have a good life,"" Boyle said. "We don't do that an\ more. It's Marine for life We take care of them when they leave the service. For as long as they are out there, we are going to be here to help them and address their needs."

Of the center's 20 employ-ees, 18 are retired Marines. The other two are Marine spouses. They started calling the most seriously injured first and, so far, have reached more than 5,000 of the Marines.

Many of the contact num-bers on file are old and no longer valid so it takes some research and effort for the team. The team likes to talk to family members as they track down the Marine.

"We like to talk to moms and dads and wives, because Marines don't always tell us what's really going on. But moms and dads and wives do. We've fixed a lot of problems out there," Boyle said.

Call centers will be added to each of the wounded war-rior battalions, and plans are to staff them with medical personnel for assessments and referrals.

The center also receives calls from Vietnam veterans

lhey will waive policy, thev will rewrite policy." Boyle said.

And, to date, many chan^ es have been made to the poli-cies that were most obviously in contradiction to the ser-vice's commitment to caring for Marines, he said.

But lasting, permanent change is needed within many systems to mold a sin-gle system that has the care of the Marine at its core, Boyle said.

"We've got to make sure that the wounded warriors are the priority. This is our one chance to fix it and fix it right," Boyle said. "If we do that now, we'll be much better off in the next conflict down the road."

As it is, Boyle said, the service is proving itself "100 times better" than it was a year ago at taking care of its Marines.

The turnover of the dam comes as little sur-prise as coalition forces continue to assume an overwatch role and the Iraqis continue to take control of security throughout the country.

"While the Marines and coalition forces oc-cupied the dam, we were only able to send work-ers in for the day shift," said Hassan Yahyah Hassan, who is a repre-sentative for the Minis-try of Electricity as well as the overall director of the dam. "The removal of coalition forces will facilitate the technical crew's movement within the dam. We only have around 100 personnel, but now we will be able to fill three shifts that will employ 460 personnel and will keep the dam running 24-hours a day."

Security for the facil-ity, once a responsibil-ity of coalition forces, is now in the hands of the Iraqi army and the po-lice. The turnover of re-sponsibility is a huge step for Iraqis and military members alike because it signified the increasing self-sufficiency of Iraq. la°nyded^nn R^H S P

GOAL FROM AI from Company F, BLT 2nd Battalion, 6th Marines was utilized to clear an obstacle.

"The objective was to open the axis for the battalion at-tack, which had been blocked by the enemy," Johnston said. "The full spectrum of support-ing arms was incorporated, which allowed the company fire support team to support breaching operations."

Despite the number of training events, none of them would have been possible if it were not for the range that was made available to the Marines.

"The range facility was great and allowed us to con-duct both dismounted and mounted combined arms op-erations," Johnston said. "You are really only limited by your imagination when you have ranges like this."

And of course, none of the training would have been pos-sible if it had not been for the hospitality of the host nation.

"The Middle Eastern mili-tary was very cooperative and enjoyed the cultural ex-change with the U.S. Marines throughout the exercise," Johnston said. "I think the ca-pabilities of both forces (were) demonstrated during the final exercise. Between the ability of the two nations' staffs to plan, coordinate and execute an amphibious assault from ship to shore was a testament to the professionalism and willingness to , work together from both countries."

The 26th MEU is currently deployed aboard the Iwo Jima Expeditionary Strike Group in the Persian Gulf in support of local operations.

hristopher Hamilton, who also started at defensive back for e Raiders. "(Camp Johnson has) a very good quarterback and e needed to put the pressure on him to force mistakes." Camp Johnson led early thanks to an interception returned-

>r a touchdown on the Raider's first possession of the game, ad later held a 9-6 advantage thanks to James Johnson's 36-ard field goal. The Raiders rallied behind the nifty running of halfback

•ev/is Shao. Shao came off the bench to replace their starting lilback, who suffered an ankle sprain early in the game.

With two minutes remaining in the first half, Raiders' .uarterback Sanford'James dove over the goal line from a yard •ut to take the lead. James followed up his touchdown with nother quarterback keeper, this time for the 2-point conversion nd the 14-9 advantage.

Camp Johnson did not go into halftime without giving he Raiders their best shot downfield. Justin Fierro hauled in 146-yard pass from quarterback Wayne Mann to get Camp 'ohnson to the Raiders' 23-yard line with 20 seconds left. Pen-alties and a stiffening Raiders defense quashed the drive and •he teams went to opposite ends of the field for the break.

As the air temperature plummeted, so too did the offenses of both sides in the second half.

Camp Johnson returned the opening kickoff of the second half just past midfield, but again ran into the Raiders immov-able defense, often led by linemen Billy Good and Scott Bauer. For the rest of the third quarter, the teams traded turnovers, with neither side able to generate any offensive traction.

The fourth quarter saw Camp Johnson make another seri-ous threat against the Raiders' goal; this time going down to the 24-yard line before handing the ball back on downs. e Raiders quickly returned the favor, with James throwing an ill-advised pass that was picked off and returned all the way down to the 11-yard line.

After trying to move the ball through the air on three con-secutive downs, Camp Johnson decided to settle for another Johnson field goal, but this time, the kick was blocked. , The Raiders punted with two minutes to play in the game, bu.t iced the victory when Justin Keith intercepted Mann at roidfield.

"(Camp Johnson) beat Cherry Point twice this season, so obviously they were doing something right, c o m m e " ^ d . . Hamilton after the game. "They had a great defense and evcrything we had tonight to win." r^v

' lie Raiders will look to add to their 18-game w g • when the 2009 intramural football season begins next tal.

NAVY BEATS A M Mids sink Black Knights 34-0 at 109th meetii NEWS REPORT The Associated Press

Army's cool new dress code resulted in the same old loss against Navy.

With President George W. Bush in attendance,

Shun White ran for 147 yards and scored two touchdowns to lead bowl-bound Navy 34-0 over Army Saturday for its seventh straight win in the storied rivalry between service academies.

Army (3-9) debuted camouflage hel-mets, pants and uniform numbers, and the backs of their jerseys had the words "Duty. Honor. Country."

The Black Knights' makeover was sharper than their play. Navy (8-4) got a 65-yard touchdown run from White on the third play of the game and improved to 53-49-7 overall against Army for its biggest lead in a series that began in 1890.

Navy has won 13 straight times against Air Force and Army since 2002, outscoring the programs 441 -205 during the streak. The Commander-in-Chief's Trophy re-mains docked with Navy.

Eric Kettani rushed for 131 yards and a TD for Navy and linebacker Ram Vela returned an interception 68 yards for a touchdown with 31 seconds left.

The Mids have already accepted a bid to play in the inaugural EagleBank Bowl on Dec. 20 in Washington, their sixth straight bowl game

Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo didn't

skip a beat in his first year leading the Mids since Paul Johnson left for Georgia Tech. Niumatalolo became the second service academy coach to win the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy in his first year, joining Navy's George Welsh in 1973.

Some Navy fans held a sign that read: "Congress, bail out Army!"

Army's Collin Mooney gained 1 yard on the final carry of the game to finish with 55 yards rushing and set the program's single-season rushing record with 1,339 yards.

Army scored only three points in last year's 38-3 loss in Baltimore and was shut out in the patriotic series for the first time since a 28-0 loss in 1978.

The series has become increasingly lop-sided, often making the pregame pageantry the most memorable part of the day.

Bush was mostly cheered by the crowd of 69,144 at Lincoln Financial Field and heard chants of "USA! USA! USA!" as he walked to midfield for the ceremonial coin toss. On his way, he stopped to kick a football on a tee The playful boot went about 15 yards.

Bush, attending his third Army-Navy game, gave both teams pep talks and watched each half from a different side in support of both service academies.

No matter the angle, White put on quite a show The game's most valuable player quickly put Navy ahead, sprinting 65 yards down Navy's sideline for a 7-0 lead.

Kaipo-Noa Kaheaku-Enhada connected with Tyree Barnes on a 34-yard reception that set up a 23-yard field goal by Matt Harmon for a 10-0 lead.

White was wide open and caught the a pass from Kaheaku-Enhada around the 10, then coasted into the end zone for an 18-yard TD catch that made it 17-0 at halftime

White, 5-foot-9,190 pounds, rushed for 138 yards in the first half and went over the 1,000-yard rushing mark on the season.

Army's seniors talked all week about how much it would mean to end their careers with at least one win against Navy. This is easily the most important game for each team every season—more meaning-ful than any bowl game. With fighter jets roaring over the stadium before kickoff, and cadets and mids standing, bouncing and cheering on a chilly day, it was easy to see how much this rivalry means to both sides.

When Kettani scored on a 5-yard run in the third quarter to make it 24-0, the game was all but over. Harmon added a 36-yard field goal in the fourth.

The Black Knights missed two prime chances in the first half to score. The first came after a bad snap and punt from the Mids gave Army the ball on their own 46. Army only gained 3 yards, though, and punted.

Then Pat Mealy broke a pair of tack-les and returned a kick 72 yards down to Navy's 27 that electrified the crowd. Again, Army couldn't convert and got nothing on a fake field goal attempt.

Navy played without cornerback Rashawn King, who returned home to Raleigh, following the death of his father. Drexel King had a heart attack Dec. 4 and the Mids played with a "DK" sticker on the back of their helmets.

Youth becomes knight of rectangular tal CHRIS LEHOURITES AP Sports Writer

In the rough-and-tumble world of inner-city life, a youngster needs to find an outlet for his aggression.

Table tennis may not be the typi-cal form of therapy for an urban kid in London, but Darius Knight took that route and is making the most of it. Now ranked No. 2 in England, he expects to be playing for Britain at the London Olympics in 2012.

"Definitely," the 18-year-old Knight said. 'Just got to keep my head down. Keep working."

Knight started training seriously when he was 10, quit school at 15 and recently moved to Sheffield to train at the English Institute of Sport. He spent years playing around the coun-try, first under the tutelage of amateur coach Gideon Ashison and now with England's national team under Liu Jia Yi.

But it wasn't that easy to get there for a black kid from Battersea, an area of southwest London that borders on the River Thames.

"I used to hang out with the boys my age — playing football, riding bikes. Things boys do," Knight said. "And table tennis was in fashion, so we all played."

The 15 or so friends all took up the sport and played at a local club, where they met Ashison. As the months passed, more and more of the kids got bored and dropped away, but the left-hander stayed with it — if only to prove he was good enough after starting out as one of the worst among his friends.

The breakup of his parents also fu-eled his desire to play.

"I could be angry hitting the ball and not hurt anyone," said Knight, who recently lost a friend when he was stabbed to death in gang-related violence. "I wouldn't say I was unhappy, but it was a way to get my anger out."

To Ashison, Knight really proved his desire when he was 10 and de-cided to skip a family vacation to Jamaica to stay in London and train — traveling far across town to do it.

"That was how I could see he re-ally wanted it," said Ashison, who has since become a professional table tennis coach. "That's when I took him serious. He could have fallen into bad company because of the area he lived in. All the kids there have nothing to look forward to."

Knight's career soon took off, winning youth and junior champion-ships around the country and world after being recruited to play for England. Despite all his success and hours of daily practice, however, he's still the second-ranked senior player in England and the second-ranked junior.

That's because doubles partner, friend and rival Paul Drinkhall is ranked No. 1.

"We're like double destruction," said Knight, who heads to Madrid, Spain, for the junior worlds. "No. 1 and No. 2, juniors and seniors."

At the senior level, Knight is only ranked No. 314 as of last month's list, but that's mainly because he doesn't regularly compete at that level. That

will likely change after Madrid, which is to be his last tournament as a junior.

Knight's success led to a sponsorship deal with British clothing maker Fred Perry, named after the last British man to win the singles title at Wim-bledon in 1936 and also a world table tennis champion in 1929.

At the company's Urban Cup in London Dec. 13, Knight will be there to talk to other inner-city kids who want to play table tennis, and maybe even take them on in a game.

That's something Knight -would certainly be happy with, because he's ready to show his skill.

"I'm so fast, so powerful, so quick," he said.

Ashison, however, thinks there's something else about Knight that will "definitely" make him an Olympian.

"He's very offensive. He goes for everything," said Ashison, who has be-come like family to Knight but is also one of his harshest critics. "Sometimes when he's on his own he goes over the top. He doesn't know when to wait for things and when is the right time to pass."

During 2010, Knight will likely be going to New Delhi, India, for the Commonwealth Games.

"If I get a medal there, that'll be a good indication," Knight said of his chances to win a medal at the London Olympics, where he'd love to play for his country in his hometown.

"The city I grew up in," he said. "My first Olympics in my back yard."

MARINE CORPS AIR GROUND COMBAT € T«® CALIF.

Intramural Sports builds morale, commitment, leadership SGT. ROBERT L. FISHER III Headquarters Marine Corps

Mankind has thrived on competition since the beginning of time. In sports, man can force his competitive will upon an op-ponent to see who will win in the test of physicality, mentality and drive.

The Marine Corps has used intramural sports for years to allow Marines and sailors to unleash that fighting spirit in positive ways through friendly competition while allowing them to relieve stress and build camaraderie.

"Intramural sports are a part of life in the Marine Corps," said Skip Best, Marine Corps Community Services athletics direc-tor. "It helps increase morale and Marine Corps espirit de corps."

Sports benefit Marines and sailors primarily through physical training and staying healthy while having fun. It also

provides an outlet for unleashing pent-up stress and aggression.

"It builds morale for the units," said Randy Husted, MCCS sports coordina-tor. "They get to play as a unit and build camaraderie. They get to take time off of work and do something besides going out and fighting a war. It gets their minds off what's going on in the outside world. They stay healthy and keep fit, and this goes hand in hand with the mission."

People play sports for a variety of rea-sons, but not all of them are limited to the physical aspect. Sports participants can also pick up team skills and leadership traits.

"It's a leadership opportunity," said Roy E. Cheeks, 1st Tank Battalion intramural football team coach. "A lance corporal can teach a gunnery sergeant. On the playing field, it's wide open. There's no rank on the field. It's a bonding experience."

There are some who've never picked up a ball before, others who dabbled in some sport in their backyard as a child and some who've spent their whole lives immersed in the world of sports. For those who know the sport, it's their opportunity to take the reigns of leadership and teach those who do not.

Without intramural sports, Marines may look for other avenues to fulfill their passion for challenge. Some of these paths could prove dangerous for the Marine as well as the Corps.

"We need intramural sports. It's a stress reliever," said Brian Davis, Headquarters Battalion, Installation Personnel Admin-istration Center. "It's something to do to take up time and keep Marines out of trouble."

While the Marine Corps will survive without it, those who need a healthy outlet

for stress and aggression may suffer fo I loss.

"The Marine Corps could survive without intramural sports, but it gives Marines something to do in their offtiil other than going out and getting drunk said Robert Payer, 1st Tank Bn..

In Davis' 14 years of Corps life, he': been involved in several sports. He has coached youth flag football and the de: sive line for the Headquarters Battalioi intramural football team. It's made hin "better team player" and shown him hi to look at the "whole team concept."

Having a team concept, a commitm< to the team, is paramount in being a M rine as well as its core values.

Intramural sports will continue to ex in the Marine Corps, for the enjoyment: the Marines and sailors and in molding, future leaders.

ile thoroughly prepar-lance corporal for an ling meritorious board, ustin Burkett meticu-looked over the Ma-

uniform and passed on id tricks he used to get he's now.

Burkett, a chemical, bio-logical,'radiological, and nu-clear defense specialist with Headquarters Battalion, 2nd Marine Division, has success-fully outshined his peers dur-ing his career by training and mentoring his Marines. He partially accredits his achieve-ments to his organized and disciplined childhood.

"I was raised in a very structured environment,'.' he said. "It's something I have at home and something I re-ally appreciate."

For service members' youngsters, childhood may not always be the easiest or most enjoyable experience. The military requires service members to move frequently

and wherever they go, their families follow.

Burkett began his life jour-ney in Tyler, Texas, and soon after his birth, his father began a 9-year stint in the Navy. Four relocations and many years lat-er Burkett found himself back in Texas, attending Abilene Christian University. Work and school were his main priorities, but he didn't truly enjoy the lifestyle he was leading.

"It takes more than money to motivate me," said Burkett, referring to his job working at a car dealership. "The money was good, but I was tired of not being happy with the work I was doing. You don't get a chance to build relationships with the people you work with."

In searching for his niche in society, he decided the Marine Corps would be a good fit.

"After I joined the Marine Corps 1 was much more sat-isfied," said Burkett with a smile on his face. "The stan-dards and our way of life as Marines is something 1 try to surround myself with."

His hard work and dedi-cation soon paid off when company leaders began look-ing for Marines to compete

Tarawa Day: Remembrance for bloodiest battle Veterans . honored with memorial service aboard base LANCE CPL. CASEY JONES 2nd Marine Division

During autumn 1943, Marines and sailors from 2nd Marine Division (Rein-forced), stormed the shores of an island named Tarawa.

Located in the central Pa-cific Ocean, the tiny island became the battle site where 1,020 Marines made the ulti-mate sacrifice and more than 2,200 were wounded in a span of 76 hours.

Those three bloody days became known as "The Battle of Tarawa," one of the fierc-est and most vicious battles of World War II.

Veterans of the Battle of Tarawa, active duty service members and families, gath-ered here to commemorate and pay tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice during the. battle, Nov. 20.

The veterans attended a memorial service, viewed a nonlethal weapons demon-stration and fired pistols and rifles.

" Shooting the rifles brought back some memories," said Henry C. Norman, a veteran of the battle. "We first had the M-l rifle, and then they gave us the carbines, so it was very interesting to shoot the M-l6 rifle."

The veterans were greeted and escorted throughout the day by active duty Marines dressed in Service A uniform. The veterans said they were taken aback by the amount of attention they were given and the tremendous amount of respect paid to them by 2nd Marine Regiment, who hosted them.

"The way they treated us here was amazing," said Bili E. Crumpacker, who foughi during the Battle of Tarawa. "1 never thought anybody woulc treat us like that. We only die what we were supposed to do We did not do anything spe cial, but we're being treatec like kings around here and w< aren't kings; we are just on< of the boys."

Many of the veterans wer< astonished that 65 years late their sacrifices and effort' were still being recognized.

--- "It's amazing that a three, day battle during World Wa II is still being remembered, Norman said. "But, I think it' very important for American to remember the past and t honor those who have sacr ficed for their country."

Crumpacker took tim during the event to recall h thoughts of the battle.

Many people who attended were walking by and stopped to see what the fair was about.

"We were in the area and figured we should check out the fair," said Petty Officer 1st Class Toby D. Cooper, a corps-man with Battery M, 3rd Bat-talion, 14th Marine Regiment. "I think they picked a good lo-cation to promote safety."

Motorcycle vendors, state troopers, wildlife officers, the provost marshal's office, the fire department, fam-ily services, and occu-

Warfighting skills heightened by live fire CPL. THOMAS J. HERMESMAN 2nd Marine Division

To preserve the tradition of a force in readiness, Marines of 2nd Marine Divi-sion constantly train and review necessary Warfighting skills.

Marines with 1st Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division, spent a few days on Camp Lejeune ranges review-ing and practicing platoon attacks and squad movements in preparation for an upcoming deployment.

The men of Company A, 1st Bn., 8th Marines, were on a platoon assault range Nov. 19 conducting live fire bunker-bust-Jngj which was a review of training recent-ly carried out at Fort Pickett, Va.

Lance Cpl. Sean Haggard, a team lead-er with the battalion, said it's always good for them to keep up on their training so nothing is forgotten.

"This is just a refresher course for us, it is just to provide upkeep on our skills," he said. "These are the basic skills that al-ways need practice."

The battalion has been training for a more expeditionary style of warfare, going back to basic knowledge used before OIF. Although they're scheduled to deploy to Iraq, their training includes scenarios they may'face if deployed to Afghanistan.

Second Lt. Timothy Kudo, 3rd platoon commander, Co. A, said the training will be useful no matter where they deploy.

"This training is more conventional and although it is more geared toward a deploy-ment to a combat environment like Afghan-istan, I can see it taking its role in situations such as moving from mountain areas direct-ly into villages," said Kudo. "Although it's not all urban, it will still be useful in Iraq."

Division band gears up to spread holiday che CPL. THOMAS J. HERMESMAN

• 2nd Marine Division

It's hard to miss all the holiday . cheer around base - houses are light-

ing up with Christmas decorations, - Hanukkah candles and other orna-

ments. And thanks to two perfor-' mances by the 2nd Marine Division Band, Camp Lejeune will soon be filled with holiday music as well.

The band will be playing tradi-tional holiday music at a free con-

cert here Sunday, and the evening of December 18th they will be caroling around the enlisted housing area.

"Each year in December, the 2nd Marine Division Band hosts their Annual Holiday Concert. True to the season, the band will be per-forming a wide variety of pieces that embody the holiday spirit," said Sgt. Nina Goralski, a member of the 2nd Marine Division Band. "Although classic medleys, sing-a-longs and childhood favorites will be played,

the audience can also expect tradi-tional music from a variety of cul-tures such as Imani, a unique piece which celebrates the African-Ameri-can tradition of Kwanzaa."

Certainly an experience anyone can enjoy, the band is excited to share their talents and music in cel-ebration of the holiday season.

"It's going to be a great concert and we're really excited for people to see it," stated Cpl. Steven Roth-well, a Marine with the band. "I've

already had people inquiring about it."

The division band is the only mu-sical unit aboard Camp Lejeune and provides musical support for the five major commands here. "The Divi-sion's Own" also performs in numer-ous parades, concerts and ceremonies throughout eastern North Carolina and the eastern United States.

Be smart with alcohol this holiday season LANCE CPL. RANDALL LITTLE Marine Corps Base

The holiday season between Thanksgiving and New Year's is not only known for family gatherings, but for parties and drinking

"We want Marines and sailors to be aware of the risks of drinking too much and take precautions to prevent them," said John Swett, a health educator for the health promotions office on base. "(Service mem-bers) need to use common sense to protect

. themselves and their fellow Marines and - sailors."

One of the biggest issues with alcohol is driving after consuming alcoholic beverages. During 2007,12,998 people in the y.S. died in alcohol-related motor vehicle crashes. In

• fiscal year 2007, there were 21 alcohol-relat-- ed deaths out of 57 personal motor vehicle

fatalities in the Marine Corps, according to , the Navy Safety Center.

Between fiscal year 2002 and 2008 the • Marine Corps lost 97 of its own — the

equivalent of two platoons to alcohol-related vehicle mishaps.

"Marines should never consider driving drunk," said Swett. "If they go somewhere and know they will be drinking, they should take a cab or leave their keys with someone and spend the night."

Another form of transportation service members should use when they have been drinking is the Arrive Alive program.

The program allows Marines and sailors to take a cab back to base where the Head-quarters and Support Battalion officer of the day will pay the fare.

Personnel who use this service will repay the OOD for the total cost within three days after use, but the price of a cab is better than poor decisions costing service members their lives or career.

"There are a lot of options for service members other than drunk driving," said-Swett. "There is no excuse for getting be-hind the wheel of a vehicle after drinking.

Although drunk driving is one of the

biggest concerns during the holiday season, underage drinking is another issue Marines need to take into consideration.

Under N. C. law, anyone younger than 21 who purchases or attempts to purchase al-cohol will face penalties including fines and court costs. Additionally, if someone older than 21 buys alcohol for someone younger than the legal drinking age, they could be fined and face jail time.

Another concern of drinking is the effect alcohol has on service members' judgment.

"When Marines get drunk, some of them see themselves as ladies' men," said Swett. "As a result, a lot of the sexual assault cases you see in the area involve alcohol."

To prevent poor decisions, Marines need to have a plan, said Swett. If they plan ahead, they can make their holiday season enjoyable.

in a meritorious sergeant board. Burkett's leadership decided he would be the one to represent their sec-tion.

Generally, 15 Marines compete for a meritorious promotion at the company level. After a detailed re-view of the Marines' service record book, five move on to compete at battalion level.

"The day began with a (physical fitness test), and a uniform inspection af-terward," he said. "I also had to drill a platoon of 21 Marines."

Sgt. Maj. Robert Beith, battalion sergeant major, Headquarters Battalion, 2nd Marine Division, resided on the board alongside the company first sergeants.

"Bearing is the number one thing," he said. "Ev-erything we do, we look for attention to detail and bearing. If you lose your bearing, you lose all cred-ibility."

A question and answer portion based on common Marine Corps basic knowl-edge questions followed the PFT, uniform inspections and close order drill exami-nations.

"It's strictly basic skills test questions," Beith said, referring to an examina-tion Marines are required to pass annually. "I will ask one opinionated question as .well. Give an answer and be confident. Marines always get nervous in front of the board, but I always tell them to relax and just answer the questions."

Following the ques-tions, the Marines compet-ing waited for the board members ' decision. At the announcement of the win-ner, Burkett was momen-tarily disappointed with the results.

"I'll tell ya what, when they announced my name it took me about two seconds to realize they pronounced

Burkett, who beat out keen competition to earn his current rank meritori-ously, uses his experience

to prepare the Marines in his section. Mapping out his future success, he wants to re-enlist and transfer to Fort Leonard Wood, Mo., to teach the up-and-coming CBRN defense specialists.

DRIVING FROM 1C

drive a standard while taking directions from a backseat driver," said Pfc. Anna-Ma-rie C. Johnson, with 2nd Intel Bn, IIMEF.

Cpl. Anthony A. Bronkema, a civil-ian accident investigator with PMO, was supervising the beer goggle station. He was getting a good laugh while en-suring Rosario-Valentin's safety.

"On Saturday morning, a Marine crashed his car in New River," said Bronkema. "He blew a .20 BAC. I've been in this field for 14 years and seen a lot of accidents. The 'oh crap' factor hits them when they've had too much to drink, they drive, then they get caught, and it's not fun anymore."

The safety fair had a successful turn-out. Marines and civilians received many helpful tips and advice while getting some good old fashion hands-on training.

"The safety fair is more informative than doing only a safety brief, and I think it's more fun for the Marines as well," said Bronkema.

"Get out of here!" the men yelled at the civilian, clear-ing the way for him to pass through. As the truck contin-ued its approach, the Marines opened fire.

"When the call goes out for a BOLO. the M i i m o set up a snap VCP to stop the attack," said Czuba *We send some pedestrians and vehicles through to judge the Marines' security stance be-fore deciding when to attack If they don't search a vehicle we make sure another one comes through with an IED It helps to maintain a combat mindset."

)uring these hard times, Christ-seems like a daunting time.

• to the sagging economy, many pie are forced to cut back on istmas. 'ortunately for Marines and sail-with Wounded Warrior Battal-East, they didn't have to skimp Christmas, and it came early, fighters from the New York Department came to visit the

alion here Dec. 5 and brought ity of gifts with them. The New York firefighters and eral local firefighters pulled up the barracks with several vans ring banners that read "Opera-a Wounded Warrior" followed sely by a large moving truck. Firefighters lined up from the iving truck to the barracks inge. An assembly line was quick-formed and boxes were handed wn. The boxes were piled in : lounge until the last firefighter me in from the truck. The excitement level in the room se as the firefighters stood in the iddle, opening boxes as Marines citedly crowded around. The fire-

fighters would yell Out the contents of their boxes like a vendor trying to sell his wares. Clothing items, hygiene products, books, candy and MP3 players were just a few of the items launched into the air to Marines who were too far back to

reach the firefighter who had what they needed.

For Cpl. Matthew Nelson, the firefighters' gifts and kindness far exceeded his expectations.

"I use a cane to get around, and I came late to the event," he

said "One of the firefighter* saw me and dumped out everything he had in a box he was giving to the Marines. He took the box and went around and collected things for me because I couldn't carry them and walk. That meant a lot because he didn't have to do it 1 didn't even ask him to do it."

Lt. Col. Thomas Siebenthal, the battalion's commanding officer, stood on a chair amid the crowd of firefighters and Marines and took a moment to thank the firefighters for the gifts and support

"On behalf of the Marines, I want to thank you for coming down," he said. "There has been a link between the fire department and the Marines since 2001 We truly appreciate what you have done here today."

Edward Tacchi, a volunteer fire-fighter with the Garden Ciry Park Fire Department and a Marine vet-eran, said the fundraising projects for wounded service members are held throughout the year. Each depart-ment does its own fundraisers, such as car washes, bake sales and raffles

"We raised $72,000 for wound-ed troops," said Doug Stewart, a volunteer firefighter with Stewart

Patricia Lugct, a firefighter with the Floral Park Fire Department and a fulltime nursing student, said it was an honor a,nd privilege to come to North Carolina, where the fu» fighters visited Fort Bragg as weU

"It's a great way to thank the Marines and soldicrs for all they do for us,** she said "At another of our events, a soldier told me 'Wr do pretty much the same th ing ' I told him definitely not He hat t-leave hts family for months at a time and risk hts life It is definitely not even close "

"The fighting lasted only ree days, and it seemed to

over before it even start-1," he said. "But I was so oung at that time, only 17 :ars old, so I didn't really now any better. I wasn't ally scared or afraid, but 'hen you're only 17 years Id, you have a tough time

understanding what's really going on."

The event ended with a brief tour of present-day weapons and vehicles used in the Marine Corps. The World War II leathernecks were delighted with the day's activities, but some in at-tendance wished veterans of

other battles would be able to take part in their "own day."

"I would hope in the future we can do more to remember some of the other battles," Cmdr. Bill M. Appleton said. "It would be nice to see some of those other veterans come and be recognized in the same way."

Since 1956, the Deploy-ment Processing Command/ Reserve Support Unit on base has been dedicated to provid-ing immediate and precise training to get reserve Navy and Marines in the fight.

The DPC/RSU's mission isn't complicated, rather, it's one that keeps the unit busy They're responsible for the planning and coordination of logistics and administra-tive support to reserve units. Marines individually aug-mented and individual ready reserves, who are conducting monthly, annual and other reserve training on base. The unit also provides full medi-cal and dental support

"For the most part, we'll help anyone out in need of fulfilling their training requirements," said Staff Sgt. Michael D. Robinson, Marine Corps Martial Arts Program DPC/RSL" staff noncommissioned officer m charge. "We have this open door policy, and if ire have the slots open and available, we can help other Marines on base get needed training done as well."

The unit has several cer-tified combat marksman-ship trainers, burnvee egress assistance trainers, range safety officers, range offi-cers in charge, water snrviv-al instructors and some of the most proficient Indoor Simulated Marksmanship Trainers

Story and photos CPL. JIN HYUN LEE Marine Corps Base

What do you do if you are a single Marine stuck at Camp Johnson Personnel Admin-istration School with no place to go? Have no fear,

the Single Marine Program is here. Most of the Marines who go to PA school

don't have private vehicles, and instead of dig-ging through their shallow pockets for cab fare to discover the abundant hidden treasures of Jack-sonville for yet another weekend, SMP was glad to step in to give 47 Marines a taste of Myrtle Beach Nov. .22.

"The SMP is a great establishment," said Mas-ter Sgt. Fernando M. Moreno, acting first sergeant for the school. "SMP gives the students a chance to get out of the barracks and the base, to see things outside Jacksonville. Not to mention, it's a lot cheaper to do things through the SMP."

For $50, the Marines received roundtrip trans- • portation to Myrtle Beach. The fee included an endless array of activities and stores at Broad-way on the Beach and the exciting entertainment ' dining experience at Medieval Times. It was a deal, considering the dinner and show alone at Medieval Times is $47.95 without tax, an amount Marines can easily spend in a night at a club in

" Jacksonville. Despite its quirky name, Broadway on the

Beach was quite entertaining for people of all ages. Broadway resembled an amusement park that would satisfy everyone from singles to families.

"I loved Broadway," said Pvt. Nestor Flores. "It was something totally different with so many dif-ferent attractions."

Broadway had an abundance of shops to please either .the mainstream franchise culture or the die-hard mom-and-pop store fans. Broadway also had rides, miniature golf, an IMAX theater, Ripley's Aquarium and an array of local and well-known restaurants appetizing to even the most cultivated palate.

During the daytime, everyone enjoyed various events and festivities often held on Broadway. But when the sun fell, the adults came out to play and mingled while bar-hopping and dancing the night away. However, partying would have to wait for another night — the Marines had a medieval feast to attend.

The Marines hopped on the bus amped up for the rest of the night's entertainment. It was on-ward to Medieval Times.

"Welcome to Medieval Times," said a server, clad in period peasant's clothing. "I'm Paige and I will be your food wench for the evening. In case you were wondering why you don't have any utensils, these (indicating her hands)" will be your utensils for the evening."

It was already turning out to be an interesting night. The whole crowd was fed a healthy por-tion of a four-course medieval feast while they watched the spectacle provided by the knights of Medieval Times. The knights not only showed amazing skills of horsemanship, gamesmanship and pageantry, but transported the audience back the world of castles, kings, gore and war, and of course, the tale as old as time, love.

"The show was awesome," said Pvt. Clark O. Stacey. "It was nothing that I expected, and I walked away from it pumped. It's got a great plot, and of course the fight scenes were awesome.

The evening came to a close with the Marines quite satiated both in body and spirit. Those who were of age enjoyed chalices of ale, and the Marines who were not, enjoyed helpings of soft drinks. Echoes of excitement from the aftermath could be heard throughout the bus on the way back to Camp Johnson. The Marines of PA schoo had a night of good, clean fun, with a little bit o Broadway and Medieval Times mixed in, thanks to the SMP.

'Australia:' Epic, love story charms " A U S T R A L I A " (R)

"Australia" is an epic tale of love set Down Under m the years leading up to World War II.

In fact, the story takes the viewer from the end of the 1930s up to the bombing of the tropical northern city of Darwin, Australia. In this tale, we find a couple fight-ing against the odds in a country on the brink of war.

Newcomer Brandon Walters narrates the story and also portrays Nullah, an Ab-original boy of mixed race.

Nicole Kidman ("Moulin Rouge," Cold Mountain," "Invasion") stars as Lady Sa/ah Ashley, a refined, prim and slightly uptight English aristocrat who comes all the way to the outback to persuade her husband to sell his cattle sta-tion, 'Faraway Downs, ' and come back to England.

However, after finding her husband dead, Lady Ashley decides to reclaim the cattle ranch left to her by her dead husband and fulfill the deal he made to deliver the cattle to the military.

Hugh Jackman ("X-Men," Van Helsing," "The Pres-tige") stars as Drover, a hand-some but rough and grizzled Australian cowboy who befriends Lady Sarah Ash-

OLP Digital Clnoma«® In all Auditoriums

ley and eventually helps her drive the cattle to Darwin.

Sarah soon falls for the country, Drover and for Nul-lah, the native boy.

Together, they embark on a dangerous journey across miles and miles of beauti-ful but stark and unforgiven terrain. They drive the cattle across the barren landscape and vast territory just in time to experience the bomb-ing of Darwin by Japanese forces.

Co-starring are Bryan Brown ("Along Came Polly") as King Carney, the cattle baron who owns much of the land in nor thern Australia and who has the corner of the cattle market and David Wenham ("300") as Neil Fletcher, the ruthless cattle station manager and right-hand man of Carney, who will stop at nothing to obtain Lady Ashley's property.

Jack Thompson ("The Good German" ) appears as Kipling Flynn, an alcoholic accountant with a great heart.

Director Baz Luhrmann and writer ("Moulin Rouge," "Romeo and Juliet," "Strict-ly Ballroom") draws from the classic old-fashioned movies from yesteryear that delivered romance,

action, drama and comedy ala "Lawrence of Arabia," "Gone With the Wind," and

' "Out of Africa." Luhrman might have tried

a bit too hard to cover all the above mentioned elements in one movie but, with the help of his wife and long-time ar-tistic collaborator, Catherine Martin ("Moulin Rouge"), who again is involved with costumes and set produc-tion of this lavish undertak-ing, the film is a wonderful experience.

Luhrman's grand epic presents everything from frontiersmen and fighting men, old-fashioned roman-tic and family values, and a history lesson in the Aborigi-nese culture.

And picking Walters from thousands for the part of Nullah was sheer genius; he practically steals the show.

"Australia" is a sprawling romantic epic and a huge adventure set in a gorgeous and breathtaking landscape and beautifully captured with the camera.

With its panoramic cattle drives, immense Japanese bomb raids and romantic intimate scenes between the lead actors, it is truly an old Hollywood comeback.

" F O U R C H R I S T M A S E S " (PG-13)

"Four Christmases" is a romant ic comedy about a dysfunctional family.

The film tells the story of a couple that avoids spend-ing Christmas with their families. However this year, after their flights are can-celed due to the weather, they are forced to partake in four separate family gather-ings, the ul t imate suffering for the holidays.

Reese Witherspoon ("Le-gally Blonde," "Walk the Line") and Vince Vaughn ("The Wed-ding Crashers," "Old School") star as Kate Kingsberry and Brad McVie, a young and happily unmarried couple from San Francisco, who think of themselves as modern and void of family traditions.

They sit by the pool and toast the season, happy they once again avoided the chaos and emotional upset of their various family households.

However, this year they are t rapped at the airport ; all flights are cancelled. Due to live television reports, they are caught on camera , revealing their whereabouts to their respec-tive families.

Jon Favreau ("The Break-Up") and Tim M c G r a w ("Flicka") appear as Brad's 'fighting brothers, Denver and Dallas and Kristin Che-noweth ("Pink Panther") plays Kate 's sister, Court-ney.

The old-school James Bond could always re nifty gadget to save the day.

That sort of technical wizardry is just what a version of " Q u a n t u m of Solace" needs.

The story line is relatively engaging, and it h bs have the film's actors supplying the voices. H k . V I

Aside from aiming and executing melee attacks, the game doesn't force you to make too many gestures with the motion-sensitive remote. Tha t helps it seem much less gimmicky than many other ac-tion titles for the Wii. However, the controls still present some challenges. Jumping can be tricky, and the aiming mechanis sometimes be a bit restrictive — a big problem ir game that relies so heavily on shooting.

The graphics are okay, with both characters ai settings offering enough detail to keep them inte. ing. However, it's not u n c o m m o n to see some sti ing or characters merge into objects.

Overall, the game does offer some frustrations it also offers much more fun than many action on the Wii.

The Marine Corps Toys for Tots program has proudly served the nation's children for more than 60 years and area Marines have long been a part of that tradition.

The local campaigns have been going strong, despite the many challenges they have faced this year.

"Due to the recent economic conditions, people are not as will-ing or able to donate, so we've fallen back on our quota," said Sgt. Gerardo D. Ricardez, Camp Lejeune area Toys for Tots coordinator. "Our ultimate goal is 60,000 toys by the end of the campaign, however, at this point, we are about 20,000 short."

Along with the downward spiraling economy, the local campaign has seen an influx of children in need. That, coupled with a decrease in sponsors, has created the biggest challenge to overcome.

"There are a lot of kids out there. We get lists with literally thousands of names on them," he said. "These are kids in ad-dition to those we already have given toys to."

Undeterred, the campaign presses on to meet the needs of the eight counties.

"We are hosting more special events than usual this year," he said. "Marines tend to warm people's hearts-so we're trying to get out there more."

now become the focus of renovations, with' ' the help of the Onslow Model Railroad Club and community donations.

Other activities will include storytelling' '' by the fireplace, old-fashioned caroling, crafts and refreshments for all to enjoy.

B.O.L.D. of Jacksonville Inc. is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the revitalization of Downtown Jacksonville, and is supported by the City of Jacksonville and Onslow County. For more informa-tion about B.O.L.D., visit the organization's ' Web site at www.BOLD2000.com or call 937-7222.

Free Consultation Available 24/7

More than 20 toy and fund-raising events are scheduled to be held in the surrounding areas between now and Christmas. All the money and toys collect-ed at these events will stay in the county where it was collected.

"A lot of people want to help their communities," he said. "The money we collect won't leave their area. If we are short on gifts in a particular county, we can get supplement-ed toys from the foundation."

Gifts for teenagers and infants tend to be the toys the campaign falls short on. The local campaign can fill this void in two ways. The cam-paign can request the gifts from

the national foundation and monetary gifts can be used to purchase toys for the age and gender group that is lacking.

The most desirable way to fill these gaps is through private toy donations. In the eight counties covered, there are more than 400 drop sites for people to donate toys.

"We've had great support from the base," he said. "Units have had their own fundraisers and toy drives. But at the end, we're still struggling."

Last year, Camp Leje-une's campaign manned four counties and raised more than 48,000 toys and was able to give each child two gifts

and two stocking stuffers to brighten their Christmas.

"I have kids myself and I don't want to see those kids go without things they need, espe-cially at Christmas," said Lance • Cpl. Matthew Caton, a reserve Marine working with Toys for Tots. "It shows the Marine Corps in a positive light and shows we really do care about people both home and abroad." •

There are plenty of oppor-tunities to help Toys for Tots ; through toy and monetary do-nations and volunteer positions.

HEATHER M. OWENS Carolina Living editor

Agroup of people gathered aboard the Battleship North Carolina Sunday to honor the memory of those affected by the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor 67 years

ago to the day. They did so by re-creating a typical Sunday service which may have taken place aboard the battleship during the 1940s.

Cmdr. Alan Hansen, who is both the com-mand chaplain for Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune and the pastor for the Midway Park Chapel, led the Service.

Hansen said he was pleased at the op-portunity to honor the sailors of 1941 with a religious service aboard their ship.

"We're very excited about (today's service), because it is a true Navy service like what may have taken place that day," said Hansen.

The divine service, which was attended largely by members of Hansen's Midway Park Chapel and Naval reenactors for the Battleship North Carolina, was held on the fantail under clear skies, but decidedly chilly temperatures.

Attendees wore hats, gloves and heavy coats. Many of the reenactors wore traditional Navy pea coats to block out the cold.

Assisting Hansen were Cmdr. Robert Carpenter, the deputy command chaplain for Marine Corps Base, who gave the invocation and benediction. Lt. Robin Heckathorne, the Camp Johnson schools chaplain, played an antique portable, field pump organ during the

service. Vanessa Childs, who is a lead singer at the Midway Park Chapel, led the music.

Kim Sincox, museum services director for the battleship, organized the service. "I wanted to do something to commemorate Dec. 7, 1941, that would invoke what would have been in (the sailors') minds at that time. We were really trying to recreate what would have happened (aboard the Battleship North Carolina) that day," she said.

In addition to the prayers and music, the service's accoutrements also set the scene. The podium, alter and candlesticks used during the service were original pieces from the battleship.

Sunday's service was the second held aboard the battleship since its decommission-ing in June 1947 and the first to be open to the public.

Courtney Vaughn, wife of Sgt. Christopher Vaughn, who is currently deployed with the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit, said she was happy to have the opportunity to attend Sun-day's service aboard the battleship.

"I came to support 'chaps,'" she said using a nickname for military chaplains, "and to remember those who are deployed and those who served before them."

Sailors from the Marine Corps Base chap-lain's office, who assisted with the service's preparations, were also pleased at the opportu-nity to spend time aboard the historic ship.

"It was very interesting (being here). In boot camp, we learned a lot about the 7th of December (1941), but this was a good: oppor-

tunity to (learn more)," said Seaman Appren-tice Azize King, a religious program specialist for the base chaplain's office.

King's colleague, Seaman Marilyn Napier, who also works as a religious program special-ist for Marine Corps Base, agreed. "I can kind of see what it was like then. I know that you can't get the full scope of what it was like be-ing aboard a ship during World War II, but it gives you a pretty good idea," she said.

The Battleship North Carolina was docked near New York City on the "day which would live in infamy," as Pres. Frankl-lin D. Roosevelt declared at the time.

The ship's crew was taking a break from its shakedown cruise. Due to the time difference, the attack on Pearl Har-bor had not yet happened when the mem-bers of the Battleship North Carolina crew gathered for Sunday worship.

"Here were these young men on a ship which was being tested. Christmas was coming up and perhaps they were hopeful. They must have been proud to be on a new ship which was receiving all of this press," she said.

Though the United States was not yet at war that morning, Sincox said she imagines members of the crew may have been a little apprehensive of the escalation of war in Europe.

Though the Battleship North Carolina was anchored in different eras and at different ports on Dec. 7, 1941, and Dec. 7, 2008, she offered the opportunity for Navy chaplains to bring worship to a congregation.

sd Cross continues to aid amp Lejeune after 65 years

JM ESSICA L. MARTINEZ 3 Corps Base

more than 65 years, the Amer-, ,,| d Cross has been taking care of

Lejeune's service members and amilies. : American Red Cross has many es to offer, such as disaster relief, ational services, volunteering, services, blood donations and

1 and safety services. 'e're mainly here for emergency lunication," said Elizabeth i, senior station manager with the lean Red Cross branch on Camp ne. "We run a volunteer program •ffer after-hour assistance with the -Marine Corps relief program." ice July, the Red Cross branch has had 129 volunteers who con-:ed more than 8,868 hours of their helping service members and families. Volunteers are recruited the community and include

e duty members, their families, :es and others from within the lo-ommunity. Ve don't require much of our nteers," said Schirk. "They must iOtivated to help in the community, "ant them to share the many skills already possess and be willing to

i new ones." olunteers with the Red Cross work at <1 Hospital Camp Lejeune, the medical : at New River, the dental clinics, the mded Warrior Battalion and the Red ;s 0 f a . They help conduct briefs, case-' and moral support, as well as work in Jus leadership positions.

Each year, the American Red Cross acknowledges the Volunteer of the Quarter in all of the Continental Unit-ed States. This year, Suzanne Klorig was honored as the first Caseworker of the Quarter for her services to military members which mostly include service members at Camp Lejeune and their families.

"It's exciting to be appreciated for volunteer work that is necessary, but also very fun," said Klorig, mili-tary spouse and caseworker with the American Red Cross branch at Camp Lejeune. "The three days a week I vol-unteer are my opportunity to interact with hundreds of military families in a very personal way. I am extremely lucky to have this opportunity in these challenging times."

Caseworkers are required to com-plete a Red Cross National Headquar-ters course in casework and receive thorough on the job training from experienced Red Cross staff. Upon completion, the volunteer is certified as a Red Cross caseworker.

"Our caseworkers provide emer-gency and regular Red Cross messages, such as a child being born or when a parent is critically ill, between families and their military members, both at home and abroad," said Schirk.

The skills volunteer caseworkers ob-tain can be used anywhere the Marine Corps takes them and their families. There are also paid positions available.

"I can take my skills anywhere the Red Cross touches and fit right in as a volunteer," said Klorig. "So when we move, the transition will be that much

easier. I can't think of a better 'win-win' situation."

Besides the valuable training Red Cross volunteers receive, it offers a special program for service members and their families who may not be able to meet certain costs in regard to an emergency situation.

"The Casualty Travel Assistance Program assists up to two family mem-bers with meeting the costs of travel to a military medical facility, if the family members' presence has been requested by medical authorities and the military member," said Schirk. "We will also assist with lodging expenses for up to six nights for travel to the bedside of a service member injured in a combat zone."

CTAP can also fund up to two family members' travel to attend a military funeral or memorial ser-vice for a service member who dies within the Central Command area of responsibility.

CTAP assistance is given in the form of a grant and is not required to be repaid.

The American Red Cross offers many services to the military, their families and the community. Anyone can volunteer, anyone can help.

"Our volunteers share a common thread," said Schirk. "They ask for so little and give so much."

For more information about CTAP or services the American Red Cross offers, get in touch with the local America Red Cross chapter or visit the organization's Web site at www. redcross.org.

Holidays require additional safely measures for pets CAPT. KAREN WEEKES Veterinary Treatment Facility

With the Holidays just around the corner, it's time to think about potential holiday hazards for your pets.

Here are a few helpful tips to ensure your pets enjoy a safe holiday season:

Avoid feeding your pets any chocolate treats. Chocolate contains the drug theobromine, a toxic substance to dogs and cats.

Ensure electrical cords for holiday lights are secured so pets can't chew on them and expose themselves to a deadly electrical shock.

Place Christmas tree ornaments at least two feet above the base of the tree. Ornaments placed lower offer an in-viting toy for dogs and cats to play with. If swallowed, they can cause an intestinal obstruction requiring emergency surgery.

Avoid using string or yarn on packages or on ornaments placed within pet's reach. These items can also cause intes-tinal obstruction if swallowed.

Avoid using lead tinsel on Christmas trees or place it high enough where pets cannot reach it. Lead is poisonous to animals as well as humans when ingested. Foil tinsel is not poisonous but, like string, is dangerous if swallowed.

Don't allow pets to eat pine needles or leaves from Poin-settia plants. Both are poisonous to animals. *

Aside from holiday hazards, keep in mind the colder weather during this time of year and protect your pets accordingly. You can accomplish this by ensuring your pets have access to plenty of fresh, clean water at all times; keeping them indoors when the outdoor temperature is be-low freezing and by keeping your pet's coat dry and clean.

For more information on pet safety or health issues, contact the Veterinary Treatment Facility at 450-1920.

Editor's note: Weekes is a veterinarian and the offi-cer in charge of the Camp Lejeune Veterinary Treat-ment Facility.
