Viewers: I do appologize for the late posting of the Aug issue, however, there was a family crisis and I was away from home all of Aug. I may have lost some pix and articles, if your's didn't make this issue please resubmit them for the Sep issue. Thanks for your understanding.

These are a couple older - but not yet published, pictures of Team Kadena responding after a tornado touched down just outside the base. Their recovery efforts were complete in just 3 hours! SSgt's Ruben Gonzales, Terrance Oglesby, SrA Joseph Delay and Jovel Green and 10K operator AIC Jabari Nall "push" a vehicle upright. SSgt Gonzales, SrA Green and AIC Nall recover a wayward dump. Nice work guys!

Osan's Veh Ops and MX flights squared off for a friendly soccer match. After 75 mins of play Veh MX was victorious with a 3-2 score. With plenty of food and drink available they were all winners that day. Nice white shoes Chief Taylor!

Members of Spangdahlem AB GE Veh Ops Flt recently participated in a Force Protection Increase. On short-notice these dedicated professionals moved 110 barriers with a total weight of 550 tons, in 6.5 hours, a record I am told. This was all accomplished at the end of a "normal" duty day. This put them at a 17 hour duty day and all was accomplished with outstanding results and zero accidents! Top Row L-R: AIC Mark Brooks, SSgt Anthony Lidner, Amn William Harris III, Amn Jeffery Coulter and SrA Nicky Harrell. Bottom Row L-R: SSgt Robert Clem, SSgt Scott Neu and MSgt (S) Timothy Schneck. Other personnel not pictured, but who assisted in the movement and tie down operations were: TSgt Robert Tavalero, SSgt Rudy Lara, SSgt Marie Jones, SSgt Jerome Baker, Amn Michael Toll and Amn Ashley Metty. Nice TEAM effort folks!
