Diversity Day 2017 marked a unique change to the program’s nine year history at Schriever Air Force Base, Friday, Aug. 18. Event coordinators organized an interactive platform for Schriever Airmen to experience different cultures through in-depth immersion. Each individual course highlighted a specific portion of that culture, such as food, music or dance, and was directed by one of Schriever’s own members. “I find it important to stand with my culture and represent it because this was how I was brought up in life and many of my beliefs are based on these teachings from my parents,” said Staff Sgt. Antonio Thomas, 310th Operations Support Squadron commander support staff and director of the Native American Heritage class. “This is why I carry myself in a certain way and this is why I am the person that I am.” Airmen stepped up to teach the 19 different classes available to the Schriever community, all of whom had two hour-long chalks to teach their peers all they could about their cultures some classes highlighting how differences can translate to strengths. “It’s important that Schriever personnel know that our wing is filled with very talented people from every walk of life,” said David Raines, 50th Space Communications Squadron logistics support and director of Diversity in the Pop Culture Business class. “Diversity makes our organization more See Diversity page 10

David Harris sprints towards the home plate during the 2017 Schriever intramural softball championship game at Schriever Air Force Base, Colorado, Tuesday, Aug. 22, 2017. The game is 3 SOPS third consecutive softball championship victory.
By Airman 1st Class William Tracy 50th Space Wing Public Affairs
The 3rd Space Operations Squadron’s legacy was furthered after its final intramural team capped an undefeated season against the 50th Security Forces Squadron at the Schriever intramural softball championship game here Aug. 22. The reigning champs maintained a strong lead from the start and ended the game with a 13 - 3 victory and their third consecutive championship win. “This merger split a lot of us (3 SOPS Airmen) up, so coming out here and being together makes it much more special,” said Cameron White, 3 SOPS team captain. “This is what we look forward to all year.” The team scored runs right off the bat in the first inning, propelling them to a 5 - 0 lead which persisted into the second. The third inning saw a slight comeback for 50 SFS with two runs scored, but the points began to stack up against them going into the fourth with a score of 8 - 2. 50 SFS had runners in scoring position throughout the game, but failed to get them home. Stephen Welling, also a 3 SOPS team captain, said that while the beginning of the game was marked by a strong offense on his team’s
part, it was the team’s defensive capabilities that lead to a championship victory and an undefeated season. “We started out really aggressive offensively,” Welling said. “But our defense is our bread and butter, with our stellar infield and our extremely fast outfield; we’ve been giving teams lots of trouble defensively all year.” The fifth and final inning saw 3 SOPS score a flurry of runs, sealing their victory. 50 SFS scored a run of their own when Michael Knowles rounded the bases scoring at the bottom of the fifth. Both White and Welling said the 3 SOPS legacy team’s successful season was in part a final “hoorah” for the squadron. “It’s a good way for 3 SOPS to go out,” White said. Welling concurred. “Everyone played a little harder and the team really came together this season so we can give 3 SOPS one last ride,” he said. The updated commander’s cup standings are: 1. 3rd Operations Squadron – 1,375 points 2. 4th Space Operations Squadron – 1,085 points 3. United States Air Force Warfare Center – 595 points 4. 1st Space Operations Squadron – 565 points 5. 3rd Space Experimentation Squadron – 530 points

As we begin another school year, one thing’s for sure: students, parents, and teachers will all be more connected than ever before. With the prevalence of smart laptops, tablets, phones, watches etc., seemingly everything today is connected to the internet in one way or CSMNGTechnology has revolutionized our CSMNG another. access to information and has made our lives better in many ways. However, being “Wired Up, Fired Up!” 24/7 does bring with it some vulnerabilities too. Here are some basic cybersecurity tips that Airmen and their families can apply to safeguard themselves against some of the dangers of cyberspace: 1. Software updates – the most fundamental thing you can do to insulate yourself from cyber threats is to update the software on all your devices regularly. This goes for desktop/ laptop computers, phones, tablets, apps and even your vehicles. Most devices offer some form of auto-update which is the best way to stay current. This will also ensure the latest patches and security fixes have been applied to your device(s). 2. Firewalls – use them to prevent unauthorized access to your devices at home. With all the mobile devices out there and now the addition of “smart” security systems and appliances, hackers have more targets than ever before to gain access to you and your family. Do some research (I use “www.cnet.com” most often) on current products and their pros/ cons. Once you select and purchase a device,

read the manual. This will prevent you from setting it up incorrectly and giving the bad guys easy access to all your devices. 3. Passwords – try to use strong, unique, and complex passwords that are different for each account. Encourage your kids to do the same for any accounts they may have individually (think Social Media). If you need to write down all your passwords and/or accounts, keep the list locked up so it’s not easily accessible to others. Change your passwords at least twice per year. 4. Social Media – be careful which photos and videos you choose to post online. Keep in mind that photos taken with phones have specific data included within them about where
they were taken and when. Additionally, not everyone online is your “friend.” Be discreet about who you accept into your inner circles. Lastly, do not respond to mean or threatening messages from cyber bullies. If your kids receive them, make sure the school and/or respective teachers are made aware. Delete the account if it keeps happening. 5. Online ads/shopping – phishing attacks are on the rise and one of the most common methods that bad actors use to collect personal information. Be cautious of phony/ spam emails, messages claiming you’ve won something “free,” ads directing you to other websites, etc. These can all be methods that criminals use to steal your data or worse, your identity. If you’re shopping or banking online, ensure the address starts with, “https://” and there’s a padlock displayed proving that the site is secure as possible. You can also use tools such as “SiteAdvisor” to confirm your visiting legitimate websites and not fake versions of them. In closing, be cautious what you and/or your kids do in cyberspace. There’s no doubt that technology is cool and it enables us to do more every day. At the same time, cyber threats often evolve faster than our safeguards do. Be smart in your surfing habits, use security software (such as anti-virus), backup important data (either to DVDs, CDs, or the Cloud), be careful what personal information you put out there, and think before you click. You, not technology, are the greatest defense against the dangers of cyberspace.

Mission partners strengthen Japanese alliance By 1st Lt. Alex Cramer 50th Space Wing Public Affairs
The Joint Functional Component Command for Integrated Missile Defense hosted five Japan Joint Staff members, July in Colorado Springs. This was the fourth consecutive year in what has become a staple training event for both nations. JFCC IMD assumed this training event in 2014 following seven years of sponsorship by the Missile Defense Agency. This engagement with the Japanese Joint Staff is part of JFCC IMD’s ongoing effort to build, sustain and support partnerships with ally nations through training and familiarization. “Given the increasing global threat, leveraging joint, allied and partner integration is essential,” said Lt. Gen. James Dickinson, JFCC IMD’s commanding general. “We must continue to emphasize and advance interoperability and integration through operations, exercises, foreign military sales and other security cooperation opportunities.” All five Japanese officers said the training improved the partnership between Japan and the United States and that they appreciated the importance of this course in the current climate. “I hope this course grows every year,” said Lt. Col. Atasushi Kamata, who is part of the ballistic missile defense operations and plans section on the Japan Joint Staff. “Considering the situation around Japan, we need this training and support about BMD.” One of JFCC IMD’s key tasks as an organization, is to integrate and synchronize joint BMD training, exercises and test activities. JFCC IMD trains more than 3,400 individuals from around the world, and in this particular instance, the training was

conducted under the governance of the Foreign Military Sales training procedures. “Japan has BMD, and we are always looking to improve and learn the ways the U.S. is using BMD,” Maj. Takahiro Nakagawa said. “It’s helpful from a bilateral perspective.” While in Colorado Springs, the Japanese officers also participated in some sightseeing to include the Air Force Academy, Pikes Peak, Bass Pro Shop and a Colorado Rockies baseball game.
Death at the Derby
“While in Colorado Springs, our visitors normally try to participate in a number of our local events and activities, such as mountain climbing and hiking, the zoo, and attending a Rockies game in Denver,” Ron Dennison, JFCC IMD Joint Training and Education chief said. “They also enjoy our local dining establishments.” Kamata enjoyed his stay so much that he plans to tackle one of the area’s biggest outdoor offerings if he makes a trip back. “If I have chance to come back [to

Senior leaders from across Air Force Space Command, Air Force Reserve Command and the Air National Guard met for the annual AFSPC Air Force Reserve Component Focus Day at Peterson Air Force Base, Colorado, Aug. 16, 2017. The group discussed emerging and continuing missions, while focusing on organizing, training, and equipping guard and reserve forces assigned to AFSPC.
By Capt Christopher Merian Air Force Space Command Public Affairs
PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. -- The annual Air Force Space Command Air Reserve Component Focus Day occurred here Wednesday. The focus day brought together senior leadership from the total force including Gen. Jay Raymond, commander of Air Force Space Command, Lt. Gen. Maryanne Miller, commander of Air Force Reserve Command, and Maj. Gen. Kevin Bradley, the acting deputy director of the Air National Guard to discuss guard and reserve support to space command missions. During the focus day, leaders discussed emerging and continuing missions and organizing, training, and equipping guard and reserve forces assigned to Air Force Space Command.
History Quiz Week of August 24, 2017
Col. David Keely, the Air National Guard advisor to the AFSPC commander, and Col. Lisa Johnson, the director of AFSPC reserve forces spoke about the importance of the event. “The focus day is to align the guard and reserve components in the direction that Air Force Space Command is moving,” said Keely. “It’s meetings like this that provide the steel structure for a building, everything else flows after.” Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve units help support numerous Air Force Space Command missions to include space operations, the Counter Communications System, early warning radar operations, cyberspace operations and network warfare. “The discussions we have truly highlight the importance of the total force concept in the space and cyberspace domains,” said Johnson. “On any given day the reserve component supports
10 to 20 percent of the Air Force Space Command mission.” In total, approximately 8,200 guard and reserve members support Air Force Space Command missions. “Our members are on mission, whether it’s flying a satellite, deploying to the desert to provide communications to the warfighter or manning a terminal and shoring up America’s cyberspace defenses,” said Keely. Maj. Gen. Catherine Chilton, the mobilization assistant to the commander, Air Force Space Command, also noted the importance of guard and reserve contributions to Air Force Space Command missions. “The total force is imperative for the success of our missions,” said Chilton. “We simply could not get it done without the continued support of the guard and reserve.”
Last week’s question and answer: The first Air Force activated organization dedicated to commanding and controlling satellites was…? The first unit activated by the Air Force dedicated to the command and control of satellites was the 6594th Test Wing, which activated April 6, 1959. This week’s question: In August 1945, the 50th Fighter Group returned to the United States for demobilization. The group arrived at what Colorado air field?

EO office supports Team Schriever well-being By Senior Airman Arielle Vasquez 50th Space Wing Public Affairs
If a problem arises, Schriever Airmen can go to the 50th Space Wing’s Equal Opportunity office to discuss issues, get guidance and find solutions. “Our purpose is to educate the base populace on what their rights are, as well as to inform them of their responsibilities when it comes to EO issues,” said Tech. Sgt. Shalicia Wright, wing EO NCO in charge. “We let them know what their protected categories are, which include race, color, sex, sexual orientation and religion.” The two-person EO office provides mentorship sessions, office visits, human relations education classes, Right Start briefings, commander’s calls and climate surveys. “Part of this job is to do reality testing, ask questions and have members take a step back to view situations with an objective lens,” said Edward Vaughn, 50 SW EO director. “When it is happening to you, it can be difficult to do that. Part of what we do is ask more questions, work with members to develop strategies and address concerns. Many times, if it is not in our lane, we escort members to other helping agencies which are better suited for their concerns. We want to make sure they get the attention they need.” The EO personnel stated any unlawful discrimination is reason enough to pay a visit to their office. There are two different types of complaints that Airmen can file, formal and informal. An informal complaint includes the complainant electing someone in the chain of command to investigate unlawful discrimination or sexual harassment. For this process, there is no time constraint. A formal complaint is where the member elects for an EO staff member to look into the matter. Military members have 60 duty days from the alleged incident to file a complaint. The EO office has observed communication continues to be an issue in the workplace. “Communication is key to everything that we do,” Vaughn said. “Generally, people want the truth. Many times, we see conflict because people don’t take that extra step to find out reasons why. I believe supervisors and managers should ensure communication happens with members and discuss performance, standards and any issues with them. That is when we see major differences in the work environment.” The EO office makes it its mission to get members the help they need in order to return to the workplace mission focused.

Edward Vaughn, 50th Space Wing’s Equal Opportunity office director, and Shalicia Wright, 50 SW EO NCO in charge, speak on the services EO provides at Schriever Air Force Base, Colorado, Tuesday, Aug. 24, 2017. The purpose of EO is to detect and eliminate unlawful discrimination, sexual harassment and barriers that keep individuals from being treated with dignity and respect in the work place.
“Anytime I get to impact somebody’s life in a positive way, it’s a good feeling to know this office contributed to the wing,” Vaughn said. “It’s worthwhile when we see an Airman who initially doesn’t know what to do become empowered after helping them find resolutions. If that’s the difference
between someone staying in or getting out of the military, it’s worth it to me and it is very fulfilling. All we want is to help others and get them in the right direction.” For more information or to seek help, members can by visit their office in Building 210, Room 271 or call 567-5310.

Schriever fitness center anticipates renovations By Senior Airman Arielle Vasquez 50th Space Wing Public Affairs
Officials will begin renovations on the Schriever fitness center, Building 120, to improve quality of life for the base community. The 50th Civil Engineer Squadron, 50th Contracting Squadron and 50th Force Support Squadron worked together to plan renovations for the fitness center’s men’s and women’s locker rooms, which is expected to start date Sept. 5, and last approximately 90 days. “The request for the project was initiated in December 2015,” said Lt. Col. Merrell Mobley, 50 FSS commander. “This will mark a two year process until completion and we are grateful to receive the funding to carry out the project as desired.” The purpose of the renovation is to replace the shower areas in both the men’s and women’s locker rooms due to wear and tear over time. This building was constructed and opened in December 2001,” said Seth Cannello, 50 FSS fitness center director. “I put in a request to renovate the locker rooms; it was a long time coming since we haven’t had any major renovations since the building’s opening.” Renovation includes walls and ceiling cleaning and painting, tile replacement, HVAC system testing and shower heads and controls replacement. Currently, the men’s shower stalls are open bay, however, once the project is complete, the design will be similar to the women’s locker rooms with private showers and drying stalls. During construction, mutliple trailers will be available which will house 12 men’s showers, seven women’s showers and three women’s restrooms. Males will still have access to restrooms and lockers in their locker room, while showers are off limits. Additionally, base members will have access to showers in Building 500 in the Restricted Area. There will be 13 men’s showers and three female showers available for use. “This is going to have a major impact on the base,” Cannello said. “People definitely need to plan ahead for it. On the plus side, the current issues will be repaired and it’s going to give people more privacy. It will be challenging for three months, which is why I want people to already be thinking about this.” For more information, contact the fitness center at 567-6658.

Diversity From page 1 well-rounded and more effective. “Research demonstrates that inclusive organizations outperform their peers, and these organizations embed these strategies in almost all management decisions,” he continued. From the opening ceremony, to informative courses, to the food, performances and booths at the end of the day; Diversity Day’s focus was to exemplify strength through our differences, and unity in knowledge. “Diversity is a good thing, teamwork is a good thing, mutual respect for each other, regardless of background, circumstance, situation, is important. That is the focus today. The focus is not about how we are different per se; it is about how what we bring to the table complements what’s on the table --How we can best help each other to be better and to be a stronger team,” said Col. Jennifer Grant, 50th Space Wing commander. The teamwork and diversity Grant highlighted in her message to the wing translated perfectly in the execution of Diversity Day. The booths, performances and food at the end of the day an example of the culmination of culture, or depiction of strength and beauty through diversity, the program was designed to convey. The performances were able to motivate on-lookers to dance, sing or engage with the display before them; while the food, partnered with the cultural booths, were able to spark an interest and dialogue. “For me, that’s what the whole program is actually about. It’s not about what you know, it’s what you don’t know about other cultures and other groups,” said Ed Vaughn, 50th Space Wing Equal Opportunity director. “When you see that light go on and you see people being educated and entertained and they’re jazzed up about (diversity of cultures) - that’s what I look forward to seeing.” Event coordinators such as Vaughn assure Schriever members Diversity Day will continue to grow and change to adapt to the shifts in culture that can be seen through time, emphasizing the goal of Diversity Day to always be a learning experience for base members, to better understand all Airmen. “That’s what the U.S. is,” said Senior Airman Jeramy Anderson, 50th Space Communications Squadron cyber sustainment technician. “We are filled with a big hodgepodge of diversity.”

53 SB strengthens Schriever ties
U.S. Air Force photo/Halle Thornton
Members of the 53rd Signal Battalion gather for a photo at Schriever Air Force Base, Colorado, Tuesday, Aug. 15, 2017. Attendees toured Schriever to learn more about the 4th Space Operations Squadron and how it supports the 53 SB mission.
By Halle Thornton 50th Space Wing Public Affairs
Seventeen members of the 53rd Signal Battalion toured Schriever Air Force Base, Colorado, Aug. 15, to see how the 4th Space Operations Squadron and the 53 SB mission coincide. The 53 SB conducts payload and transmission control of the Defense Satellite Communications System and Wideband Global System satellite constellations, with battalion members stationed around the country. Capt. Zachary Ritter, 4 SOPS assistant director of operations, kicked off the tour with a briefing at 4 SOPS to learn about how the mission supports the 53 SB mission. “We fly the spacecrafts and they do the payload,” he said. “We don’t see everything they see and vice versa, so it was nice to put faces to names.” Ritter also gave an overview of the former 3 SOPS mission,
and how they supported the 53 SB mission. “The brief was very informative because some of the members of the geographically separated units have a broad range of space knowledge, or have not had any exposure to this at all,” he said. First Sgt. Matthew Helmer, D company first sergeant, 53 SB, said the tour was very informative. “We’re seeing a whole different side of Space Command, and it’s interesting to see how we mesh,” he said. Pfc. Jacoby Plummer, 527th Space Aggressor Squadron signals collection analyst, gave an intel briefing and led a tour of the 527 SAS. Tech. Sgt. Dustin Mozader, 527 SAS flight chief, led SATCOM cross-talks following the brief, and expressed his content for the level of discussion. “I wasn’t sure what the knowledge level would be as it tends to vary with our customers and I hadn’t personally
seen a tour with the 53rd yet, but they had some really good questions that we were able to answer,” he said. Mozader added any time members of a Wideband Satellite Operations Center visit, they are always interested in working more closely with the squadron. “I hope yesterday’s talks have helped to further that relationship,” Mozader said. Maj. Michael Pederson, 53 SB executive officer, expressed his interest in how the battalion’s mission and the 4 SOPS mission effect each other. Ritter made it a point to set up a line of contact between the two units, and explained in the future, the 53 SB and 4 SOPS hope to attend training together to help further their relationship. Additionally, members of the battalion expressed optimism when it comes to working with 4 SOPS and Schriever in the future.
Ent Credit Union shows Schriever the money By Halle Thornton 50th Space Wing Public Affairs
Ent’s Schriever Air Force Base Service Center earned the 2016 U.S Air Force Distinguished Credit Union Service Award in the “greater than $1 billion in assets” category. Schriever was nominated for the award by Col. DeAnna Burt, former 50th Space Wing commander, and received the award at the Defense Credit Union Counsel annual conference in San Diego, California, Aug. 8, 2017. Each year, the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force recognizes an on-base financial institution in two asset categories, less than and greater than $1 billion in assets, that provided exceptional service to the military community during the prior calendar year. Credit unions on military installations worldwide attended the conference, including unions from Europe and Asia. Dave McAfee, Ent Credit Union service center and military relationship manager, explained the award is given out DoD wide, and the Navy and Army give out their best credit union award as well. He added the award package is tailored to what each credit union does on base, goes to the wing commander for approval, then goes to financial management at major command and finally to the executive Air Force level. “It’s about how we can improve the quality of life with credit unions on military installations,” McAfee said.
“Through different avenues, we provide support to the base.” For example, the credit union gave the Airman and Family Readiness Center $1,500 last year to use for various programs. “We have a 60 year connection with the military installations. We’ve been around since 1957,” McAfee said. “I think more than anything, it (the award) is a validation of a good relationship between the military community and the credit union. It validates the fact that we are a valued mission partner; that we do things out here for the folks who work at Schriever.” McAfee added the award is an opportunity to give back to the military community. “We appreciate being out here,” he said. We appreciate the opportunity to come out to work every day and support the military community,” he said. In the award letter from Marilyn M. Thomas, acting assistant secretary of the Air Force, she wrote: “Having experienced sequestration, your management directed Lending and Technology personnel to create a flexible solution for various emergency situations. When the base recently experienced budget cuts and personnel reductions, Ent provided information tables at every event from base picnics to sports days to the Transition Assistance Program, ensuring opportunities to answer questions and provide assistance regardless of the venue. For these reasons and others,

we thank you for the service and support you are providing all Airmen in the Schriever Air Force Base community.” Victoria Selfridge, Ent Credit Union vice president of corporate communications, said Ent was appreciative of the nomination, and echoed the sentiments
of Matt Gendron, executive vice president of operations. “Ent is humbled, honored and proud of the partnership with the 50th Space Wing,” she said. “We’re also proud of the service and support we’ve been able to give Schriever Air Force Base.”
