Robert Gaylor, the fifth chief master sergeant of the Air Force (1977 - 1979) visited Joint Base Charleston, S.C., Sept. 20 through 22, 2012. Born in 1930 in Bellevue, Iowa, and raised in the small town of Mulberry, Ind., Gaylor enlisted in the U.S. Air Force just a year after its birth in 1948. More than 65 years later, he continues to be an active, energetic part of the Air Force community. While at JB Charleston - Air Base, the chief toured the base, ate breakfast with Airmen at the dining facility named in his honor, hosted an enlisted call at the Air Base theater and was guest speaker at both the Airman Leadership School Graduation Sept. 20, 2012, and the Air Force Ball at the North Charleston Convention Center, North Charleston, S.C., Sept. 22, 2012. The chief spoke of his Air Force experi- ences during the enlisted call, including how today's Air Force compares to the Air Force of yesterday. According to Gaylor, the differences are found in the training, technology, tribe (family) and trust; or, as he worded it: the "Four T's." "The Air Force does an extraordinary job training Airmen," said Gaylor. "Basic training today is longer; more advanced and gets Airmen ready for the military. Training doesn't end at basic training, it continues throughout the ranks, which makes today's Air Force stronger, and with more education than ever. "Today's Airmen received the training I was denied," said Gaylor. "I never went to Airman Leadership School and didn't attend any leadership academies until I was a senior master sergeant." After training, the second item on Gaylor's list was technology. "The gadgets and devices today are strapped to your waist or in your pocket, from blackberries, to strawberries, to iPods and pea-pods," Gaylor joked.

Diamond Tips: Where is your focus?

Commentary by Capt. Michael Busse16th Airlift Squadron, 437th Airlift Wing

Much like a groundskeeper understands theintricacies of their golf course, it is you, theAirman, who knows and appreciates the intrica-cies of your office. You are responsible for water-ing the grass, maintaining the greens, shaping thetee boxes and even removing gophers. Yes indeed,you are to the Air Force as Bill Murray is to"Caddyshack" ... somewhat. With classic 1980s movie references out of the

way, let's get to the point. We have all utteredthose three words found in the title of this article... "This is stupid. Why do we do things thisway?" As a large organization, the Air Force has a

way of clinging to antiquated processes. Yourgoal, your duty, is to rid your shop of these cum-bersome processes that detract from the mission.With impending budgetary constraints along withthe possibility of reduced manpower, your innova-tive ideas and initiative are paramount to effec-tively accomplishing our mission. Consider the following questions: Can we do

this quicker? Can we do this cheaper? Can we do

this safer? Can we do this more effectively? Doesyour solution positively impact the mission ordoes it save time? Not all ideas will be perfect, but they will trig-

ger solutions as others analyze and implementthem. Some ideas may be adopted in part, or in full.

Some may be adopted as a conglomerate, helpingother career fields. However, the basic brain-storming and constant "how can we fix this" men-tality should always influence your processes. Ridyourself of the "that's how it's always been done"mindset and formulate modern ideas. We are allleaders and innovators, regardless of rank, dutytitle or time in service. Your superiors, subordi-nates and fellow Joint Base Charleston membersare relying on your initiative. So the next timeyou say "this is stupid," your duty is to fix it. So how do you do this? First, identify ineffi-

cient processes that need improvement or need tobe eliminated. Now, apply your experiences and expertise to

develop a solution and an implementation plan.This is where you can be creative. With aninstinctive tech-based culture, many Airmen arealready adept at manipulating smartphone and

tablet applications. Now is the time to harness thattechnology in the workplace. Any improvementsusing a tech-based methodology can be submittedthrough the 437th Airlift Wing's TechnologicalInnovation Group, available through GlobalReach on your computer athttps://globalreach.amc.af.mil. Whether you arefrom the 437th AW or the 628th Air Base Wing,your ideas, submitted through the TIG, will betransitioned to industry standards, permitting youand your co-workers to work more efficiently.Anything non-tech related should be routedthrough your respective leadership. New ideas and processes, all vetted through the

TIG, are considered by the 437th AW vice com-mander for implementation. Results thus far havesaved JB Charleston more than $600,000 andmost ideas have come from young Airmen belowthe rank of staff sergeant. So, if you've read this far and think you don't

have a voice, you're wrong. Exercise your talentsand utilize your personality to shape the future ofJB Charleston and potentially introduce AirForce-wide changes. There has never been a moresuitable and appropriate time for your innovativeideas. Our mission depends on it!

This is stupid … and it’s all your fault

Commentary by Master Sgt. Christopher Copans17th Airlift Squadron first sergeant, 437th Airlift Wing

As I thought about writing this Diamond Tipwhile sitting in my office in Southwest Asia, itoccurred to me there would be no better time totalk about focus. Being in a deployed environment helps us

remember what it is that we really do in the mil-itary; what is really important. Often at home sta-tion, we lose sight of what really matters becausethere is so much going on all around us. Whenyou are where I am, it is clear: our focus is themission and the people. They are interconnectedand inseparable. Unfortunately, every day we are bombarded

by influences that push and pull us off course.Those influences can distract our focus and leadus farther from the accomplishment of our pri-mary objectives. To me, maintaining a healthyfocus is a daily challenge that requires a con-scious effort.Accomplishing the mission is what we are

here to do. Whether your mission is maintainingcommunication networks or airplanes, buildingpallets of cargo or flying airplanes, your primary

focus should be on being the best at your specif-ic mission. If you cannot say you are an expert inyour career field or striving to be one, then yourfocus is wavering. It should not be acceptable tojust be acceptable. We need to be perfecting ourwork, expanding our skills and knowledge andgetting better at what we are here to do, every-day. Once we have put in the effort and energyfor our primary duties, then we must expand ourfocus to helping those around us achieve thesame success. Getting involved within our squadrons is vital

to their success. Our squadrons rely on us forsupport; whether that is helping a co-worker inneed or just helping improve the general state ofour organizations in whatever way we can. It iseasy to do, but can be hard to find time to do itwhen there are seemingly millions of otherthings vying for our attention. As we promotethroughout our careers, our area of focus willcontinue to expand, producing new challenges.As supervisors, our mission focus must extend

to training and caring for our subordinates. Thatincludes not just on the job training, but also taskcertifying, evaluating performance and enforcingstandards. It means taking time to show our peo-

ple the right way to do their jobs. It means activeengagement in their development and passingour knowledge on to them in a manner thatshows how important it is that they excel. Whendone right, our subordinates will be able to learnfrom our mistakes, instead of their own, helpingthem accelerate through their professionalgrowth. Taking care of our subordinates alsomeans helping them succeed in the broader sensein their personal or professional lives. Whenfaced with the decision to help or to ignore, wemust choose to help. That is especially importantwhen helping is the harder option. It is easy to bethere for subordinates when things are goingwell, but when people are truly in need we mustmake sure we are focusing on what is important. Maintaining focus requires vigilance. It

requires us to evaluate everything we are taskedwith to determine the value added to our missionor our people. On any given day we will makecountless choices. Where do we devote our ener-gy? What gets our attention? Should we take thetime for the task at hand or pack it up and gohome. Whenever we are faced with thoseoptions, we must consider: where is our focus?

Commentary by Tech. Sgt. Shawn JonesAir Force Public Affairs Agency

WASHINGTON – Air Force officialsannounced they will delay the Line of the AirForce promotion board for captains commissionedin 2005 from its anticipated December 2013 date. Air Force officials made the announcement

Sept. 25 as they released the 2013 SelectionBoard Schedule. Record retention rates coupledwith Defense Officer Personnel Management Actrestrictions have resulted in a delay that will movethis board into 2014. The Line of the Air Force board, which does

not affect judge advocates, chaplains or healthprofession officers, will be pushed back approxi-

mately nine months. The major's board for judgeadvocates will also be delayed for scheduling rea-sons, but this delay will not affect projected pin-on dates.Public law prevents the Air Force from carry-

ing a surplus of officers in grades of major, lieu-tenant colonel and colonel."If the Air Force were to continue at the pin-on

rates common over the past several years, the totalnumber of majors would surpass the total allow-able by the law," said Lt. Col. Emi Izawa, chief ofthe Military Force Policy Division. Izawa said the delay in the 2005 year group's

promotion board does not drive a later pin-ondate – high retention did that. Delaying the boardmoves it closer to the start of that year group's

pin-on date so the Air Force can comply withOffice of the Secretary of Defense policy and con-gressional expectations. The 2014 Selection BoardSchedule will be released in the summer of 2013. "The delay is a product of high retention rates

and public law and not related to force manage-ment programs or budget cuts," said Lt. Gen.Darrell Jones, Air Force deputy chief of staff forManpower, Personnel, and Services. Jonesemphasized the board delay will not make theaffected officers less competitive for future pro-motion consideration throughout their career.For more information about promotion board

schedules and milestones, go tohttps://mypers.af.mil under active duty officerpromotions.

High retention leads to promotion board delay

Commentary by Staff Sgt. Rashard Coaxum315th Airlift Wing Public Affairs

The 315th Airlift Wing welcomed a new com-mander during an assumption of command cere-mony Saturday at the Joint Base Charleston - AirBase theatre. Col. James Fontanella took command of the

wing, succeeding the current commander, Col.Russell Fingar, who will assume the wing's vicecommander position here."To me, this is really special," Fontanella said.

"It's the culmination of all the hard work in mycareer."Fontanella, a graduate of the U.S. Naval

Academy, most recently worked at the Pentagon,in the office of the Air Force Reserve, as the pro-grams and requirements chief.A 24-year- veteran of the military, Fontanella

has logged more than 3,000 flight hours in six dif-ferent types of aircraft, ranging from helicoptersduring his tenure in the Navy to the C-5 Galaxy,the Air Forces largest cargo airplane.Looking forward to the mission ahead,

Fontanella took the time to thank the men andwomen of the 315th Airlift Wing for their dedica-tion to job at hand, going forward."In addition to the great vision we have, it's our

people who really make it special," he said."They're moving the mission and they're repre-senting the Air Force Reserve, the Air Force andour DoD everyday as proud citizen airmen andrepresenting their country well.""I'm really honored to be here," Fontanella

said. "This is a special group. This is a specialplace to work."

ALL WOMEN AGE 40 & OLDER

GET AN ANNUAL MAMMOGRAM

Breast cancer is still the second leading cause of cancer-

related death among American women. This form of cancer

is unusual because White women are more likely to get the

disease, but African American women have a 39% higher rate

of dying from breast cancer.*

The good news is, the earlier breast cancer is detected

the easier it is to treat. That’s why the American Cancer

Society recommends all women age 40 and older

have a mammogram once a year.

To schedule your mammogram at one of our

five locations, call 402-5000.

South Carolina’s semi-tropical climate often lends itself tohigh levels of humidity, which can contribute to mold andmildew growth when condensation gathers within a home. Mold and mildew are not uncommon throughout the

Lowcountry, which can be a concern for many residents wholive in a climate such as this one.Locally, seven newly constructed Forest City homes at

Joint Base Charleston – Air Base were recently found to haveisolated incidents of mold or mildew in the air conditioningregisters of the homes’ cooling systems. With regard toBalfour Beatty Communities, a total of seven homes havereported mold/mildew incidents since they started managinghousing at JB Charleston in 2007. Both privatized housingcommunities, the community managers and the homebuilders, have jointly responded to each incident as soon as itwas reported and those situations have since been completelyresolved. All newly constructed Forest City homes, including homes

not yet occupied, have been inspected for any additionalpotential mold or mildew occurrences, and that process isnearly complete.Balfour Beatty Communities continuously inspects homes

through their Preventative Maintenance program, as well asthrough their Change in Occupancy Maintenance program inorder to help prevent future mold or mildew problems. In each case, the home was inspected and appropriate reme-

dial actions were immediately taken. All mold and mildewwas thoroughly cleaned or otherwise removed from impactedareas. In most cases, residents were able to remain in the homeduring the cleaning process or, at most, were out of the homefor only a few hours while the work was performed.In several cases with Forest City homes, it was found that

condensation had begun to accumulate in and around the airconditioning registers and construction dust was present.Removal of those materials and thorough cleaning has beencentral to the remediation process in most cases. For BalfourBeatty homes, many of the issues also have stemmed fromimproper settings with air conditioning units.Environmental consultants for both housing communities

have indicated the actions taken to date have addressed theissues and the conditions in the homes are acceptable foroccupancy. For residents who reported incidents of mold or mildew,

both communities were able to react quickly and aggressivelyin remediating each case.

Mold & Mildew PreventionThere are thousands of species of mold and mildew that are

present in our homes and everyday lives. And fortunately,only a few species of mold are harmful to humans and they arenot common in occurrence.

Residents of Forest City and Balfour Beatty Communitiesare encouraged to practice a few simple daily habits to mini-mize the potential for condensation to gather in the home andpotentially allow the growth of mold or mildew.

Tips and Reminders:• Use of the bathroom exhaust fans during and following

showers, as well as the kitchen exhaust fan when cooking onthe stovetop, can help quite a bit to keep mold and mildewfrom growing.• Whenever possible, try to avoid positioning large pieces

of furniture in front of ductwork vents. • Try to leave some air circulation room in front and all

around the vents. Your home will cool better, use less energyand avoid incidents of mold and mildew growth.• Report any water problems or leaks to the Housing

Manager of your privatized community. These should berepaired as soon as possible.• Keep indoor humidity levels low (30-60% is ideal) by vent-

ing bathrooms, dryers, and other moisture generating sources tothe outside; using air conditioners and dehumidifiers. • Increase seasonal cross flow ventilation by opening win-

dows and doors periodically and using exhaust fans whencooking, dishwashing and bathing.• It is recommended that fans be left in the “auto” setting. • Don’t install carpeting in areas that are likely to be damp

(bathrooms, garages or foyers).• Dry out wet areas as soon as possible, but at least within

48 hours, to prevent significant mold growth.• For routine housekeeping, clean small amounts of suspect

mold on hard surfaces using soap and water.• Wear rubber gloves and scrub the affected area with the

soapy water until clean. Rinse with clean water. Let the treat-ed area dry naturally overnight.• Do not use ammonia cleaners.• Do not clean up mold if you have been diagnosed with

mold allergies or sensitivities.• Do not clean large areas of mold.If any suspicious, recurring leaking or moisture is noticed

in the kitchen, bath, AC registers or utility closet, residentsshould report the issue to their respective Privatized HousingCommunity’s maintenance office immediately.Mold and mildew can be a recurring problem in many

homes in a semi-tropical, high-humidity climate likeCharleston’s, so residents of Forest City and Balfour BeattyCommunities are advised to promptly report any incident ofmold or mildew to their respective maintenance points ofcontact by calling Forest City at 855-831-3499 or BalfourBeatty Communities at 843-797-3858. For a more comprehensive list on mold and mildew preven-

tion, and who to contact if you feel that you are experiencinghealth-related symptoms caused by mold or mildew, visitwww.charleston.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123319798.

DOD NEWS

By Claudette RouloAmerican Forces Press Service

WASHINGTON – Calling sexual assault “an affront tobasic human values,” Pentagon Press Secretary George Littleannounced today that the Defense Department is revising itssexual assault prevention and response training requirements.In a Pentagon news conference, Little said Defense

Secretary Leon E. Panetta repeatedly has stated that there isno place for sexual assault in the military or in the department.“[Sexual assault] is a crime that hurts survivors, their families,their friends and their units,” he added. “In turn, sexual assaultreduces overall military readiness.”The defense secretary has taken numerous steps to ensure

the department is doing all it can not only to prevent sexualassaults, Little said, but also to ensure a climate that supportsvictims’ ability and desire to report the crime and to hold per-petrators accountable.Some of those steps include:-- Elevating disposition authority for the most serious sex-

ual assault offenses;-- Working with Congress to establish “special victims

unit” capabilities in each of the services so specially trainedinvestigators and prosecutors can assist when necessary;-- Implementing an integrated data system called the

Defense Sexual Assault Incident Database for tracking sexualassault reports and managing cases while protecting victimconfidentiality;-- Establishing a new policy giving service members who

report a sexual assault an option to quickly transfer from theirunit or installation as a way to protect them from possibleharassment and to remove them from proximity to the alleged

perpetrator;-- Establishing a credentialing and certification program

aligned with national standards to enhance the quality of sup-port from sexual assault victims’ advocates;-- Issuing a new policy requiring the retention of sexual

assault records for 50 years; and-- Enhancing training for investigators and attorneys in evi-

dence collection, interviewing and interacting with sexualassault survivors.“The goal of this department is to establish a culture free

from the crime of sexual assault,” Little said, “and one thatdeters potential perpetrators and supports survivors.”The Defense Department has a zero tolerance policy for

sexual assault, Little said, noting that the health of the force isa major priority for Panetta. “We must hold perpetratorsaccountable, and we must do everything we can to prevent[sexual assault] in the first place,” he added.“The focus is on ensuring that we do everything that we can

to provide complete and comprehensive training, that we cre-ate a safe environment for our service members, especiallywhen they enter the force, … and on ensuring accountability,”Little said.And accountability is most appropriately delivered through

the chain of command, he added.“One very important part of that process is ensuring that

commanders and senior enlisted leaders are properly trainedto set the right tone in their units and respond appropriately toany instances of sexual assault within their commands andorganizations,” the press secretary said.In January, Panetta directed a review across all services of

pre-command sexual assault prevention and response training,Little said. The defense secretary received the results of the

report earlier this year, and based on those results is nowdirecting further action, he said.Each of the service secretaries and the undersecretary of

defense for personnel and readiness were directed to developand implement standardized requirements and learning objec-tives for sexual assault prevention and response training,Little said. The intent is to improve the awareness andresponse of prospective commanders and senior enlisted lead-ers, he explained.“At the same time, it is clear that the department must con-

tinue to do more to prevent sexual assault, especially in initialmilitary training environments,” Little said. “Our newestservice members are the most vulnerable and most likely toexperience a sexual assault.”With this in mind, Panetta today also directed a thorough

review of the policies and procedures related to all militarytraining of enlisted personnel and commissioned officers,Little said.“That review will assess initial training in several areas,”

he told reporters, including the selection, training and over-sight of instructors and leaders who directly supervise traineesand officer candidates; the ratio of instructors to students; andthe ratio of leaders in the chain of command to instructors.The review, scheduled to be completed by February, also

will assess potential benefits of increasing the number offemale instructors conducting initial military training.“All members of the military and this department must

have an environment that is free from sexual assault,” Littlesaid. “The department remains strongly committed to provid-ing that environment and ensuring the safety and security ofthose entrusted in our care.”

The third item ... tribe ... includes Airmen's families.During Gaylor's enlistment, he spent years away from hisfamily while assigned to bases in South Korea and Thailand."I didn't have Skype or email when I was away from my

family," said Gaylor. "And, nobody checked on my familywhile I was away, either. Today's Air Force has programs forfamily members that were never offered to me or my family.Programs such as the Airman and Family Readiness Center,Naval Fleet and Family Center and the Child DevelopmentCenter are only a few examples."Finally, Gaylor considers trust one of the most important

differences that has developed during the past 65 years. "Trust is the greatest change in the Air Force," said Gaylor.

"We had full uniform inspections when I was an Airman. Theydidn't even trust us to know how to wear clothes! Today,you're trusted with everything because generations have builtthat trust. Those before you spent years building this trust andit's a responsibility we all have to continue to earn that trustand not lose it." During the enlisted call, Gaylor also shared the story of the best

advice he ever received and theunlikely source it came from. The story began on a

street corner in Laredo,Texas. Years ago, while having a

quick lunch at a burger standbefore a speaking engage-ment, Gaylor watched inamazement as a young deliv-ery boy grabbed a freshlyprepared bag of hamburgersand began passionately run-ning, as if he were anOlympic-class athlete, downthe sidewalk with the burg-ers in hand. He never sloweddown. A few minutes later,as Gaylor finished his lunch,he watched the boy return,still running full-speed."Anymore orders?" the

boy asked the cook, sweat-ing and out of breath. "No," The cook quickly

responded. "I had to talk to (the boy)," said Gaylor. "He told me he ran

the order to a drug store a few blocks away. He said he alwaysruns orders to the customers and then runs back to the burgerstand at the same quick speed, in case there were more cus-tomers ... without fail... every single time." Gaylor wanted to know 'why' and the boy's response was

simple, 'People like hot French fries.' According to Gaylor,the delivery boy had already figured out that to get ahead, hehad to work hard and not settle for mediocre standards.The 'hot fries' in Gaylor's story were a metaphor for hard

work. In the story, the boy was determined to provide excel-lent customer service. He was so determined, that no matterhow modest the labor seemed, he continued challenging him-self to go above and beyond mediocrity.

"Do you deliver hot fries?" asked Gaylor, challenging theAirmen at the enlisted call. "When people receive JBCharleston's refueling service, security, medical care or civilengineering ... do they get hot fries? Or, do they get the 'sameold response?'"Gaylor added that all JB Charleston Airmen need to ensure

they are serving hot fries by working hard and helping others. "If you work hard, you won't have to pound your chest and

say how great you are ... people will do that for you," saidGaylor.Gaylor concluded by praising the Lowcountry's beautiful

weather and the Airmen, Sailors and Team Charleston part-ners for their hard work. "If I was putting together a team," said Gaylor. "I'd want JB

Charleston on it."
