“Your sister has a mass on her breast,” my parents told me when I was in high school.

Commentary byMaj. George Sanderlin

21st Space Operations Squadron Detachment 3 commander

KAENA POINT SATELLITE TRACKING STATION, Hawaii — What does it take to truly know yourself? Is it enough to know your strengths, and find ways to maximize your opportunities based on them? This is always a good starting strategy, but your “ad-versary” may also have the same strengths. Should you not also identify your weakness-es and find ways to overcome or minimize them? Author Simon Travaglia stated, “Of all the things I could know, my own faults and weaknesses are pretty much the most important.” The oil tycoon Ray Lee Hunt also noted, “It’s more important to know your weakness than your strengths.” We all know what our strengths are and use those strengths instinctively, but it is also useful to know our weaknesses so they don’t hinder us.

If asked, most of us could quickly identify an area in our life or career where we strug-gle. However, many of us don’t like to admit to those challenges in public. Take a minute right now and write down one area that you know needs improvement. No really, write it down. If you honestly aren’t sure which areas need improvement then review past feedbacks and evaluations or ask a trusted friend or supervisor. You can’t fix what you don’t acknowledge. Knowing your weak ar-eas is not enough by itself though; you must

take action to minimize those weaknesses.During my years in the Air Force, I’ve

noticed three common areas of struggle: fit-ness, public speaking, and writing. At one time or another, I bet every one of us has been faced with difficulties in one or more of these areas. I certainly have. No matter the challenge, you can improve and there is always someone able to help you (though

it may be hard to find them at first). If you struggle with fitness, take advantage of base programs, a personal fitness trainer, or train with a co-worker. If you are afraid of public speaking, take a college course, volunteer to assist with a Commander’s Call or even join Toastmasters (this one still makes me ner-vous). If you hate to write memos and bullet background papers then ask for help from a seasoned writer and ask your squadron for templates and examples of past successful papers. You must admit the weak area and take steps to make it better.

There is no magic fix, and you may have to try several techniques before having any success. In some cases, you may actually dis-cover a new strength. Even if you don’t, you will know exactly where to focus your future attention to prevent those weaknesses from being exploited. To paraphrase the German scholar Georg C. Lichtenberg...once we ad-mit and work on our weaknesses, they can’t cause us harm.

Take a look at what you wrote down earlier for improvement. Now write down some-one you know that is strong in that area. Congratulations! You just completed the hardest step towards improvement. Once you have acknowledged the problem and located at least one resource, all you have to do is take one small step at a time. You know what to work on and where to get started, and as I remember fondly from my childhood, “knowing is half the battle!”

“Thanks to everyone in 3 SOPS,” Rittershaus said. “This is a huge group effort in cooperation with SMC and it’s a significant milestone for space communications. Every time we bring a WGS satellite online it provides a huge increase in capability to the warfighter.”

Operators in 3 SOPS have been flying WGS-5 since Oct. 2 on behalf of the Military Satellite Communications Systems Directorate, a division of the Space and Missile Systems Center. Satellite Control Authority is the last step before

the vehicle is operationally released to the U.S. Strategic Command, the owning combatant command, who will then assign users based on priorities and requirements.

The WGS system of satellites is the follow-on to the Defense Satellite Communications System. The new ve-hicle joins an eight-satellite constellation of DSCS com-munications satellites and four WGS satellites that 3 SOPS operators currently command and control. Together, the constellations provide flexible, high-capacity com-munications for U.S. forces throughout the world while enabling battle management and combat support infor-mation functions.

During the past four months, 3 SOPS operators have been carefully preparing for the transfer of WGS-5 SCA.

They have made more than 200 procedural changes and spent many hours training satellite vehicle operators on the Block II vehicle’s capabilities. The squadron also sent a launch-and-early-orbit team to Los Angeles Air Force Base, Calif., to provide support and continuity during the transition.

“We’ll fly WGS-5 with pride,” Igl said. “I want to thank the entire launch and early orbit team for helping support during the launch and early orbit activities. Wideband Global SATCOM-5 SCA also represents a critical step in declaring full operational capability of the WGS constellation.”

The Air Force has tentatively planned for 10 WGS satel-lites. Vehicle six launched from Cape Canaveral Aug. 8.

Members of the 50th Security Forces Squadron Alpha Flight took it to the mat Tuesday for quarterly SFS Combative Training here.

The Security Forces Center at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas, recently unveiled a more comprehensive combative training program that included instruction on submissions, fighting stances and weapon control.

“Though security forces members have been teaching combative training for years, this training, specifically for SFS members, is fairly new,” said Senior Airman Anthony Tasker, 50 SFS training and combative training instructor. “The biggest change is weapons are incorporated throughout the entire [course].”

After an in-depth safety briefing, students began the training with a warm-up and the fundamentals of combative training, to include proper technique and fighting stances.

Rubber M9 pistols and M4 rifles were used throughout training to simulate the weapons the SFS members carry. During training stu-dents learned different techniques to handle a suspect who attempts to take the SFS member’s weapon.

After completing formal instruction, mem-bers went through a practical 10-minute drill, where the techniques and moves were put to

the test.“The training is very physical and takes a lot

out of a person,” said Tasker. “This is good in a training environment. We want the students to see that even a short altercation requires the member to be physically fit.”

Staff Sgt. Adam Dederick, a 50 SFS member who attended the training, has been in secu-rity forces for more than seven years and has applied his combative expertise on the job.

“[At a previous assignment] we would be at base events and sometimes there is that one person who gets out of hand,” said Dederick. “Fueled on ‘liquid courage,’ they would pursue and we would have to react and neutralize them.”

Dederick continued that he’s glad he had his training when those events occurred.

“Thinking back, the situation would have quite possibly been different, if not for my training,” he said. “I hope the new SFS mem-bers attending class today really pay atten-tion to the material. If you pay attention now, when you really need it, your body just goes through the motions and your muscle memory kicks in.”

Alpha Flight completed the training in the same day and it is scheduled for the remainder of the SFS unit.

“We have to stay proficient,” said Tasker. “We have to stay one step ahead of the enemy.”

should also know their family history and find out the risks and benefits of hormone replacement therapy.

It was a few days later when my mom and dad came back.“Good news. It’s not cancer,” my parents said. I was relieved

that my sister didn’t have cancer. I was happy.As I see the pink ribbon, the international symbol for

breast cancer awareness, I am reminded of that dreadful time when for just a moment, I thought my sister had breast cancer. However, what I felt is nothing compared to people who had or have it feel. Through my personal experience, I realized it could happen to anybody — young or old, man or woman.

I applaud the people who have survived breast cancer. But, it’s also important to keep in mind those people who are still fighting breast cancer. For everyone, it’s essential to know and understand their risk factors to help prevent the disease.

By Chief Master Sgt. Lavon Coles50th Space Wing command chief

Let me start by saying thank you for your service and perseverance throughout this difficult time in our nation. You were truly missed. Our year has been filled with trials, the likes of which many of us have never seen or experienced before. The challenges and the resulting impacts have been far reaching, ranging from fiscal challenges to administrative furloughs to a government shutdown. Fiscal stress has necessitated cutbacks across many facets of our service, yet we perse-vere as Airmen to guarantee mission accomplishment. Despite the turbulent year’s impact on you and your families, the professionalism you demonstrate every day has not faltered.

In the days leading up to the end of the fiscal year and government shutdown, I interacted with a number of civilians here who displayed exceptional dedication to ensure sustained mission accomplishment. Specifically, I observed a team of professionals working together to execute “fiscal end-of-year actions” that not only closed out fiscal 2013 but prepared us for fiscal 2014 activities as well. This was a symphony of events executed at every

level throughout the organization, and across the entire wing, and was impressive to watch. On Oct. 1 many of you prepared your work centers for continued success in your absence; giving very thorough handoffs to those who remained behind. This was, and is, a remarkable testimony to your professionalism as civilian Airmen and teammates.

On the morning of Oct. 2 there was a void that is hard to explain but felt by many. I personally described this feeling of now having to get used to, at least in the interim, working without my right arm. I felt a part of me was missing. The Air Force I know and have grown up in is made up of Airmen of all ranks — military and civilian. If I can highlight a few very critical points: Many of you have deployed in your capacity, gone into harm’s way, provided stability and continuity to our organization, trained our military Airmen and shaped the mission sets we execute today — just to name a few. Your level of commitment and dedication is beyond measure. Thank you for your continued service to our great Air Force and unwavering service to our nation. It is an honor to serve with you. Last week’s answer: On Sept. 30, 1991, the 50th

Tactical Fighter (later Space) Wing inactivated at Hahn Air Base, Germany. Who was the wing commander that cased the wing’s colors on that date? Col. George W. “Nordie” Norwood cased the wing’s colors on that date.

This week’s question: On Oct. 1, 2000, the wing as-sumed satellite control authority for what experimental satellite platform?

October is Energy Awareness month

• Energy Tip #281: Devices, even if turned off, consume power. Unplug unused devices to save energy.

• Energy Tip #349: Avoid bringing in space heaters or fans to work. Instead, inform your facility manager to adjust the tempera-ture. Using space heaters instead of adjusting central temperatures could increase overall energy costs for heating by 70 percent.

• Energy Tip #411: Minimize time spent idling in vehicles. 30 minutes can burn up to 1 gallon of gas.

Consolidated Unit Inspections are now a thing of the past.

The Air Force implemented a new in-spection system that is intended to allow wing commanders to focus on improving mission effectiveness, balancing resources and risks while eliminating the wasteful labors of inspection preparation.

Under the legacy system, major com-mands would send their inspector general along with several function inspection teams to inspect compliance and mission readiness. This will not occur under the new system. Instead, the wing commander will inspect his own wing regularly and then report its status to the major com-mand. The objective of the new system

is to make inspections a part of the daily battle rhythm of continuous improvement.

“It is certainly a cultural change for the Air Force,” said Col. Bill Liquori, 50th SW commander. “It’s not just to change an individual tool. We want to focus on transparency.”

To accomplish this, the 50 SW will implement a Commander’s Inspection Program, directed by the wing inspec-tor general, to evaluate compliance and mission readiness through wing inspec-tions and reporting. The CCIP will re-port status to Air Force Space Command Headquarters at regular intervals, who will then conduct Unit Effectiveness Inspections to validate the findings of the program.

In order to successfully transition to the

new system, 50 SW leadership requires everyone’s support.

“It is every Airman’s responsibility to act as a sensor in order for us to meet new fiscal and mission challenges,” said Liquori. “This will ensure commanders receive timely, relevant information that improves precision targeting of time and resources to maximize unit effectiveness.”

The 50 SW Inspector General will also rely heavily on appointed subject-matter experts throughout the wing. With the Management Internal Control Toolset as one foundation of the CCIP, transparent reporting will be needed throughout the chain of command, especially in the early days of the program, to ensure the most effective process possible.

“Units are required to report on self-

assessment checklists, to include check-lists that do not meet their needs and non-existing self-assessment checklists to the IG office,” said Maj. Nick Sanders, Installation Inspector General.

In addition to virtual inspections through MICT, on-site inspections will also be conducted to evaluate how well units manage resources, lead people, im-prove processes and execute the mission.

“The Commander’s Inspection Program needs to become a regular part of our battle rhythm,” said Liquori. “I know there will be some hiccups as we go through this. What I ask is that we work together to evolve the new system into a valuable tool to assess and improve our ability to execute the mission, manage resources, lead people and improve the 50th Space Wing.

Air Force Inspection System gets overhaul

By Staff Sgt. Julius Delos Reyes50th Space Wing Public Affairs

The 50th Space Wing will implement its new civilian payroll system Nov. 3. The wing is transitioning from the Electronic Management Tracking System to the Automated Time Attendance and Production System.

The new system was designed to provide an automated, single source input for reporting and collecting time and attendance as well as labor data for payroll interface and accounting systems.

“Throughout the past year, the Air Force has been migrat-ing all civilian pay timekeeping to a single system called

ATAAPS,” said Maj. Kenneth Walker, 50th Comptroller Squadron commander.

With this, Air Force Space Command bases are transi-tioning all civilians to ATAAPS in the second pay period of October. Training for the new system has already been conducted Oct. 7-10.

Second Lt. Carly Serratore, 50 CPTS financial services officer, said the new system will have various features that will benefit the wing.

“[The system] is a central database administered by the Defense Information Systems Agency that can be accessed from any common access card-enabled computer,” said

Serratore. “The program is very user friendly.”She said the program has menu items that enable civilians to

look at their leave balances, easily track their leave forms, load their default labor and choose a permanent or temporary tour.

“As with any major system transition, the migration from EMTS to ATAAPS will involve an adjustment period,” Walker said. “The 50 CPTS Financial Services team is committed to providing timely and thorough employee, timekeeper and certifier training and transition assistance to ensure there will be zero disruption to civilian employee pay and benefits.”

For more information, call 50 CPTS customer service at 567-5113.

WE’VE GOT YOUR BACK.

By Maj. Brooke BranderAir Force Space Command Public Affairs

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — In continued collaboration between the Air Force and the Army, the entire Air Force will migrate to Secure Internet Protocol Router, Department of Defense Enterprise Email over the next year.

Approximately 150,000 SIPR Network users will migrate to the Defense Information Systems Agency SIPR email enterprise services through fiscal 2014. The Air National Guard will be first to transition to the SIPR email enterprise.

“The SIPR DEE migration allows the Air Force to lever-age an enterprise JIE capability and improve secure email delivery services,” said Brig. General Kevin Wooton, Air Force Space Command director of communications. “The migration to SIPR DEE provides significant operational

efficiencies and allows the Air Force to focus on our cyber mission sets rather than email infrastructure.”

The migration to SIPR DEE will reduce Air Force Operations and Maintenance cost while modernizing in-frastructure. In addition, the migration will converge infra-structure services and make available enterprise services, providing operational capabilities that will enhance the Air Force cyber mission.

“The continued spirit of cooperation and partnership between the Air Force, Army, and DISA as we move toward JIE is greatly appreciated,” said Gen. William L. Shelton, commander of Air Force Space Command. “The SIPR DEE migration will allow us to more efficiently use our cyber professionals, ensuring the cyber domain is secure as we continue to operationalize capabilities.”

The SIPR DEE migration is another step toward the Air Force’s move toward the Joint Information Environment architecture.

“The Air Force is very committed to JIE and we want to make sure we do it the right way,” said General Shelton. “There are great opportunities that the Air Force is leverag-ing with SIPR DEE; however, there are still challenges with enterprise services on the NIPR Net specifically in the area of cost efficiencies.”

The SIPR DEE migration is in addition to the new architec-ture-sharing and modernization agreement among the Air Force, the Army and the DISA focused on next generation network configurations and regional security stacks that will increase bandwidth and network security and avoid more than $1 billion in future costs.

Army, Air Force collaboration leads to improved SIPR email service

12 Schriever SentinelOctober 10, 2013

By Scott PraterSchriever Sentinel

Turning leaves, diminishing sunlight and cooling tem-peratures are signaling the end of summer here in Colorado. The 50th Space Wing Safety office suggests now is the time to begin thinking about winter driving conditions.

The Pikes Peak region regularly receives its first bout of snow during the month of October. Thanks to the high altitude at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, winter condi-tions typically continue through April and often into May. Drivers could face hazardous driving conditions for several months and the safety office is urging people to make sure their vehicles are prepared for the season.

“First, Team Schriever members should ensure the me-chanical ability of their vehicles,” said Master Sgt. Sarah Law, 50th Space Wing ground safety manager. “Fluids, belts, windshield wipers and especially tires need to be in proper working order. It’s a good idea to check the tread on tires as well.”

Drivers are also advised to carry a winter driving kit in their vehicles. A typical kit includes a flashlight with extra batteries, flares or reflective triangles, jumper cables, a first aid kit, rags or paper towels, candles or matches, a gallon jug of water, non-clumping kitty litter and an ice scraper, snow brush and snow shovel. Also, if drivers become stranded, they should not leave their vehicle. Instead, they should use a cell phone to call for help and wait for assistance to arrive.

Traffic mishaps are so prevalent when the snow falls here that Colorado Springs Police Department often reverts to a cold reporting policy during winter storms, which means drivers have up to 72 hours to report traffic incidents that don’t involve injuries or when alcohol or drugs is not a sus-pected factor.

When on base, drivers should report all traffic incidents im-mediately to the 50th Security Forces Squadron at 567-5643.

“Driving too fast for conditions is the most common cause of traffic mishaps,” Law said. “People should allow more time to get to work. If you leave home at your normal time [during adverse road conditions] you’re setting yourself up for failure.”

Intersections are prime areas for traffic mishaps and there are plenty between Colorado Springs neighborhoods and Schriever.

“When you’re driving in adverse weather conditions, you need to look down the road,” Law said. “If you see an inter-section signal turn yellow, you need to start slowing down in advance and coast up to the intersection. On the flip side, if you’re approaching a yellow light and you’re right at the light during icy conditions, you have to use your best judgment.

It might be safer to roll through the yellow light if you think there is a chance you could lose control by trying to stop too quickly. Something to think about too is if you’re stopped at a light in that same type of scenario, you may want to wait for other cars to clear the intersection before starting out.”

Drivers are urged to exercise caution whenever they ap-proach bridges, overpasses or off ramps as these structures tend to develop ice faster and more frequently than normal roadways.

“Risk management can be a life saver,” said. Lt. Col. Nate Iven, 50 SW chief of safety. “Assess the road conditions along your route; allow extra time for delays and communicate deviations from your schedule with your family or work center. Most importantly, understand that conditions can change and that you can make a go/no go decision when required.”

Additional winter driving tips:• Avoid driving while you’re fatigued. Getting the proper

amount of rest before taking on winter weather tasks reduces driving risks.

• Never warm up a vehicle in an enclosed area, such as a garage.

• Make certain your tires are properly inflated.• Never mix radial tires with other tire types.• Keep your gas tank at least half full to avoid gas line

freeze-up.• If possible, avoid using your parking brake in cold, rainy

and snowy weather.• Do not use cruise control when driving on any slippery

surface (wet, ice, sand).• Always look and steer where you want to go.• Use your seat belt every time you get into your vehicle.

Tips for long-distance winter trips:• Watch weather reports prior to a long-distance drive or

before driving in isolated areas. Delay trips when especially bad weather is expected. If you must leave, let others know your route, destination and estimated time of arrival.

• Pack a cellular telephone with your emergency telephone numbers, plus blankets, gloves, hats, food, water and any needed medication in your vehicle.

• If you become snow-bound, stay with your vehicle. It provides temporary shelter and makes it easier for rescuers to locate you. Don’t try to walk in a severe storm. It’s easy to lose sight of your vehicle in blowing snow and become lost.

• Don’t over exert yourself if you try to push or dig your vehicle out of the snow.

• Tie a brightly colored cloth to the antenna or place a

cloth at the top of a rolled up window to signal distress. At night, keep the dome light on if possible. It only uses a small amount of electricity and will make it easier for rescuers to find you.

• Make sure the exhaust pipe isn’t clogged with snow, ice or mud. A blocked exhaust could cause deadly carbon monoxide gas to leak into the passenger compartment with the engine running.

• Use whatever is available to insulate your body from the cold. This could include floor mats, newspapers or paper maps.

• If possible run the engine and heater just long enough to remove the chill and to conserve gasoline.

Tips for driving in the snow:• Accelerate and decelerate slowly. Applying the gas slowly

to accelerate is the best method for regaining traction and avoiding skids. Don’t try to get moving in a hurry. And take time to slow down for a stoplight. Remember: It takes longer to slow down on icy roads.

• Drive slowly. Everything takes longer on snow-covered roads. Accelerating, stopping, and turning — nothing hap-pens as quickly as on dry pavement. Give yourself time to maneuver by driving slowly.

• The normal dry pavement following distance of three to four seconds should be increased to eight to 10 seconds. This increased margin of safety will provide the longer distance needed if you have to stop.

• Know your brakes. Whether you have anti lock brakes or not, the best way to stop is threshold breaking. Keep the heel of your foot on the floor and use the ball of your foot to apply firm, steady pressure on the brake pedal.

• Don’t stop if you can avoid it. There’s a big difference in the amount of inertia it takes to start moving from a full stop versus how much it takes to get moving while still rolling. If you can slow down enough to keep rolling until a traffic light changes, do it.

• Don’t power up hills. Applying extra gas on snow-covered roads just starts your wheels spinning. Try to get a little in-ertia going before you reach the hill and let that inertia carry you to the top. As you reach the crest of the hill, reduce your speed and proceed downhill as slowly as possible.

• Don’t stop going up a hill. There’s nothing worse than trying to get moving up a hill on an icy road. Get some inertia going on a flat roadway before you take on the hill.

• Stay home. If you really don’t have to go out, don’t. Even if you can drive well in the snow, not everyone else can. Don’t tempt fate: If you don’t have somewhere you have to be, watch the snow from indoors.

Winter’s closing fast, time to prepare for adverse road conditions
