AF, AF ISR Agency legacies roll on together
By Wayne Amann
Air Force Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance
Agency Public Affairs
A
s the U. S. Air Force and the Air
Force Intelligence, Surveillance
and Reconnaissance Agency
approach their 66th and 65th birthdays
respectively, they will remain works in
progress.
Neither one has ever been satisfied
with the status quo. They’ve undergone
decades of change for the better. They
constantly strive to accomplish their
missions in the most effective ways possible. Their continuing evolution is their
legacy.
This legacy of change is anchored by
a commonality of service to the nation
and each other.
“Except for a six-year period as a
subordinate unit to Air Combat Command, our organization has worked directly for Headquarters Air Force,“ said
Phil Myers, the agency’s chief historian.
“That service includes 45 years as a major command and 14 years as an agency
working for an Air Staff directorate.”
He added that, among all the organizations under the Air Force umbrella,
“AFISRA is the fourth oldest major
organization and third most prestigious
based on years of service and awards.”
Through the years the agency and its
predecessors have been key players in
Air Force operations.
In 1950, the 1st Radio Squadron
Mobile detachment of the U.S. Air Force
Security Service provided invaluable
intelligence on the movements of major
North Korean army units which allowed
United Nations air and naval units to
stop the enemy advance. Another detachment allowed American F-51 and
F-86 fighters to inflict heavy losses on
the enemy in June 1951.
In Vietnam, the USAFSS airborne radio direction finding systems aboard EC47 aircraft provided crucial intelligence
to U.S and friendly tactical commanders
Straight Talk Line
throughout Southeast Asia during the
1960s and 70s. Those efforts got the
attention of Military Assistance Command Vietnam Commander, Gen. William
Westmoreland.
“Success in many of our recent operations can be attributed directly to the
increased number of and reliability of
these fixes,” Westmoreland said.
Fast forward to 1991 and Operation
Desert Storm/Desert Shield when Electronic Security Command, most notably
the 6948th Electronic Security Squadron, provided intelligence information
enabling relentless air strikes that killed
Iraq’s command and control systems
long before the ground war began.
That brings us to the War on Terror,
initiated after 9/11. In the midst of that
focus, the Air Intelligence Agency transformed into the Air Force ISR Agency in
2007.
“The transformation will allow us to
treat intelligence as an Air Force-wide
enterprise, coordinate and integrate ISR
capabilities and present those capabilities to joint war fighters and national
users,” said the last AIA commander and
first AF ISR Agency commander, Maj.
Gen John C. Koziol as he announced the
transformation.
One of the largest transformations
with possibly the greatest impact on
prosecution of combat operations occurred after the Distributed Common
Ground System was gathered under one
organization for the first time to make
it a globally-linked, regionally focused
weapon system.
The critical importance of Air Force
ISR to the overall Air Force mission
since 9/11 cannot be overstated.
Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Mark A.
Welsh III made that clear in his vision
for the Air Force when he placed ISR
immediately after top-ranked air and
space superiority when it comes to his
services’ enduring contributions.
Welsh went on to say technological
advances have enabled the Air Force to
graduate from snapping black-and-white
photos of enemy troop positions, to Airmen controlling remotely piloted aircraft
which capture thousands of hours of full
motion video daily.
In the 12 years following 9/11, America has relied on ISR more than ever.
Maj. Gen. John Shanahan, Air Force
ISR Agency commander, recently said,
“With the beginning of combat operations in Afghanistan in October 2001, its
[ISR] prominence skyrocketed. Within
the last six years alone more than $13
billion worth of ISR was sent to Afghanistan. Some day Operation Enduring
Freedom will also be known as ‘The ISR
War.’”
The combined Air Force and AF ISR
Agency heritages continue to be legendary for one important reason, as Shanahan made clear.
“ISR doesn’t happen without the great
people of the United States Air Force
doing it,” he said. “Great Airmen figure
out how to get this done every day. We
need to listen to their ideas, incorporate
them to change the enterprise and make
sure we’re postured for the future.”

More than 800 people took part in this year’s Joint Base San Antonio 9/11 Commemorative Run at the Joint Base San AntonioLackland 1.5-mile track. Throughout the run, volunteers read the names of the nearly 3,000 people that died that day in 2001 at the
World Trade Center, the Pentagon and in Shanksville, Pa.
By Jose T Garza III
JBSA-Lackland Public Affairs
More than 800 people participated
in the Joint Base San Antonio 9/11
Commemorative Run at the JBSA-Lackland 1.5-mile track Sept. 11.
Rain was sporadic throughout the
day, but it did not stop the participants
from honoring the 3,000 people who
tragically lost their lives at the World
Trade Center, the Pentagon and near
Shanksville, Pa.
“We owed it to the victims of 9/11 to
be out here and honor them, regardless,” said Tech. Sgt. Douglas Greene,
an instructor at the Robert D. Gaylor
NCO Academy at JBSA-Lackland and
the commemorative run’s organizer.
The event began with opening words
from Chief Master Sgt. Arlene Keith,
Air Force Intelligence, Surveillance and
Reconnaissance Agency, and closed
with remarks from JBSA and 502nd
Air Base Wing Commander Brig. Gen.
Bob LaBrutta. Various Airmen read the
names of the deceased throughout the
nine-hour run.
“Whether it was at the World Trade
Center in New York City, the Pentagon in
our Nation’s Capitol, or the lonely field
in Shanksville, Pa., today’s event was
established as ‘our way’ to pay tribute
to the thousands of men, women and
children who lost their lives on that fateful September day in 2001. We are also
here to honor those who have paid the
ultimate sacrifice by giving their lives
so valiantly on the battlefields of Iraq,
Afghanistan, and other lands throughout the world to defend our way of life,
LaBrutta said.
“I am so proud of our country for
its resiliency and I consider myself extremely privileged to be at this incredible
venue as a fellow warrior to memorialize 9-11, the proceeding 12 years of war,
and to stand by your side to publically
state, ‘never again, not on our watch.’”
One senior airman ran in honor of
her husband, Senior Airman Wesley
Channell, 93rd Intelligence Squadron,
who has been deployed three months
as of Sept. 10.
Senior Airman Olivia Channell, a 59th
Medical Diagnostics and Therapeutics
Squadron lab technician, said her husband is expected to return to the United
States before Christmas.
“It is killing me,” Channell said about
her husband’s deployment. “I can’t wait
to see him. I’m counting down the days
until he gets here.”
A Cincinnati native, Channell remembers being in fifth-grade science class
when the attacks occurred. She was
worried that her father would not be
able to retire from the Air Force after
the tragedy. He was set to retire a week
later.
“I thought we were going to have
to move and he was going to have to
deploy and have to fight the bad guys,”
she said.
Participating in the event also helps
Channell “become a better Airman,” she
said. “At least I can do something to help
show support more than I do already,”
she said.
Channell’s fellow Airmen from the
59th MDTS participated in the event,
including her supervisor, Tech. Sgt.
Monique Monteiro.
This run was personal for Monteiro,
who had a family friend who was in
the World Trade Center Sept. 11, 2001.
Monteiro said her friend left behind
three children.
“It’s nice that I’m able to do a little
something to remember them,” she
said.

Airmen saddle up for volunteer effort
By Mike Joseph
Volunteer Airmen trim tree branches at the
Lackland Saddle Club as part of a Sept. 7
cleanup at the stables.
Airmen who live in a Joint Base San
Antonio-Lackland dormitory found a
productive way to spend a recent
Saturday morning.
Sixteen Airmen assigned to the 433rd
Airlift Wing’s 733rd Training Squadron
and the 59th Medical Wing helped with
a four-hour work call Sept. 7 at the
Lackland Saddle Club stables.
“With the member turnout and 16
Airmen, we accomplished what would
normally take three work calls,” said
Gary Murrell, stable manager. “It was
great having the extra bodies.”
The saddle club has 37 horses in
its stables. Membership is open to
active-duty military members and
their dependents assigned to JBSALackland, Reserve, retirees and Department of Defense civilians and their
dependents.

bers, the volunteers helped move

flood waters in May, trimmed trees and
general cleanup.
“We got a lot done,” said Airman 1st

SADDLE from Page 6
Class Mike Niccoll, 733rd TRS, who organized the volunteers. “The dumpster
down there is full. Nothing else could
go into it.
“It was one of the best experiences
I have ever had,” he said. “I know it
was the same for some of the Airmen
because they told me they wanted to
volunteer again.”
Niccoll volunteers at the stables
several times a week. He spread his
enthusiasm about volunteer work at
the stables to Airmen in the dorm and
when the members scheduled a work
day, they were more than willing to
assist.
“It makes you feel good,” Niccoll
said about volunteering. “You feel like
you made a change and helped the
community.
All of the volunteers enjoyed themselves.”

Water Conservation Tips!
» Minimize evaporation by watering during the early morning
hours, when temperatures are cooler and winds are lighter.
» Wash produce in the sink or a pan that is partially
filled with water instead of running water from the tap.
» Use a layer of organic mulch around plants to reduce
evaporation and save hundreds of gallons of water a year.
» Use a broom instead of a hose to clean your driveway or sidewalk
and save 80 gallons of water every time.
» If your shower can fill a one-gallon bucket in less than 20 seconds,
then replace it with a water-efficient showerhead.

National Night Out activities planned at JBSA locations
By Robert Goetz
Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph Public Affairs
National Night Out, a neighborhood crime and
drug prevention event that unites law enforcement
agencies and communities, will be observed at 6
p.m. Oct. 1 at Joint Base San Antonio locations with
a variety of activities.
A motorcade led by 502nd Mission Support Group
and 502nd Security Forces Squadron representatives as well as Sparky the Fire Dog and McGruff
the Crime Dog will be one of the highlights of
JBSA-Fort Sam Houston’s National Night Out,
while the Randolph High School Marching Band,
Sparky, McGruff and mascots from the 902nd Force
Support Squadron and 902nd Civil Engineer Squadron will be featured at the JBSA-Randolph event.
All JBSA locations will create a block party
atmosphere by setting aside areas for activities
such as games, food, refreshments, music, military
working dog demonstrations, and police vehicle and
fire truck displays.
JBSA-Fort Sam Houston’s National Night Out activities are planned at three sites: Lincoln Resident
Center, Building 407, Dickman Road; Harris Heights
Community Center, 3751 Patch Road; and Watkins
Terrace Community Center, 5840 Frazier Road. The
main housing office, 2254 Brian McElroy St., will
be the site of JBSA-Lackland’s National Night Out.
JBSA-Randolph’s NNO site will be North Park Street
immediately north of the Parr Club.
Steven Dews, 502nd SFS crime prevention officer,
said the goals of National Night Out are to “heighten crime and drug prevention awareness, generate support for and participation in local anti-crime
programs, and strengthen neighborhood spirit and
police-community partnerships.”
Staff Sgt. Edward Grant, 902nd SFS NCO in
charge of police services, said NNO is law enforcement’s “way of giving back to the community.
“It’s also a way of telling the community we’re
on their side,” he said. “National Night Out has
definitely put a sense of trust between the public
and first responders.”

Staff Sgt. Jason Kempel, 802nd SFS, said NNO
sends a message to criminals.
“It lets them know that neighborhoods are organizing and fighting back against crime and drug
activity,” he said.
JBSA National Night Out coordinators said support for the locations’ NNO events continues to
grow.
“With JBSA-Lackland being involved since 2008,
we have really gotten a good grasp on things,” Kempel said. “We continue to add more events and more
organizations are stepping up and participating to
make this better and better as we go on. Knowing
that we have expanded our housing community, we
expect a greater turnout and even bigger community involvement.”
Grant said “constant growth” has characterized
JBSA-Randolph’s NNO event.
“It has continued to grow and evolve,” he said.
“We have added new ideas and new activities
that have fostered law enforcement-community
interaction.”

Shipping
your
privately
owned
vehicle
By Capt. Chanelle Linson
JBSA – Lackland Personal Property Processing Office
Changing duty stations can be a
stressful time for many military families and the addition of shipping your
privately owned vehicle can make
this time a little more challenging.
However, with advanced planning,
you can ensure a successful POV
shipment.
The first thing to keep in mind
when preparing to ship your POV is
that although you are entitled to ship
your vehicle there are some restrictions. Those restrictions are listed
below.
TALESPINNER
PAGE 11
1. Only one POV, per Department of
Defense member, may be shipped to
your new duty station at government
expense.
2. The POV is not to exceed 20 measurement tons.
3. If you desire to ship an additional
POV commercially, at your expense,
consult your sponsor and local Personal Property Processing Office for
specific details and restrictions.
4. You must review the Personal
Property Consignment Instruction
Guide and determine if vehicle restrictions/prohibitions exist to import
POVs into the country you are moving to. (Failure to do so may result
in shipping delays and/or additional
costs to you.) Additionally, there are
time restrictions for when you can
ship your POV. If the overseas tour
is longer than one year, your vehicle
must be shipped within 90 days after
your departure.
If the overseas tour of duty is less
than one year, your vehicle must be
shipped within 30 days of your departure.
It is imperative that you contact
your servicing vehicle processing
center well in advance of your shipment date to receive all necessary
shipping information and requirements, in order to ensure your POV
will be shipped without delay or any
additional stress for you or your family.
If you have any questions regarding the shipment of your POV,
call or visit your local PPPO counselor at JBSA-Lackland 671-2821/
JBSA-Randolph
652-1848/JBSAFt Sam 221-1605. For additional
valuable moving information, visit

Shopping the JBSA-Lackland Exchange pays dividends
The JBSA-Lackland Exchange is
paying dividends in more ways than
one as military members and their
families exercise their benefits by
dining and shopping at Exchange facilities. Activities last year generated
dividends of $620,321.
These funds are critical to Air
Force Service’s ability to enhance
local programs and facilities including the Skylark Bowling Center, the
Gateway Hills Golf Course and all of
the JBSA-Lackland fitness centers.
“Historically, roughly two-thirds
of Exchange earnings are paid to
morale, welfare and recreation programs with the other third used to
build new stores or renovate existing
facilities,” Lackland Exchange’s general manager, Ken Klein said. “This
structure means that authorized customers are essentially our ‘investors.’
Fortunately, thrifty shoppers rediscovering the value the Exchange offers allowed us to provide a healthy
return on their investment.”
With a mission to provide quality
goods and services at competitively
low prices and generate earnings
to support quality-of-life efforts, the
dual benefit the Exchange provides
military families goes far beyond
clothes, electronics and snacks on
shelves.
Shoppers who visit the Exchange,
either online at http://www.shopmyexchange.com or in person help make
the military community a better place
to live and work.
In fact, purchases made in
the past 10 years have provided
more than $2.4 billion to mili-
tary programs such as Youth
Services, base functions, gyms and
aquatic centers.

Running evaluations reveal improper
running and unnecessary injuries
By Alex Salinas
JBSA-Randolph Public Affairs
Recent gait analysis evaluations of 20 Airmen at the Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph
Health and Wellness Center revealed a potentially large Air Force problem: incorrect
running often goes unnoticed and can lead
to fatigue, decreased performance and serious injury.
Karl Leonard, HAWC exercise physiologist, arrived at JBSA-Randolph in August
and hit the ground running by analyzing
and assessing walking and running forms
of military members – a cost-free service
to them and their dependents Leonard said
few know about.
“My goal is to assess a handful of people
a day and teach them proper running techniques, which they can share with others,”
Leonard said. “An objective is for Airmen to
run efficiently and injury-free so they can
pass the physical training test and avoid unnecessary injuries and surgeries.”
Improper running form, most commonly
identified as heels striking the ground first,
can create a “kinetic chain of events that
radiate from the feet up the body,” meaning
the knees and back are at risk for damage,
Leonard said.
“The majority of people we’ve seen are
bad runners, and they’re in shape too,”
Leonard said. “This is important for our
young Airmen, especially those coming out
of basic training, who may be put on profile (limiting or prohibiting physical activity)
from improper running.”
When improper running persists for long
periods, “the body will only tolerate so much
the older we get,” Leonard said.
Master Sgt. Brenda Greer from Air Education and Training Command, who’s been
on profile for seven years since she’s been
at JBSA-Randolph, was evaluated by the
HAWC Sept. 4.
Based on a customer satisfaction survey
response, Greer discussed her gait evaluation.
“The information provided was new and
relevant,” she said. “I prefer to be shown
how to improve my technique rather than
be told I cannot perform an activity.”
Greer underwent plantar fasciitis surgery,
but said she “could have graduated off of
a profile and remained physically limited”
had she addressed her improper running
years prior.
What Leonard hopes to achieve is a mindset shift from running as fast and far as possible to running the right way.
Senior Airman Jessica Aulenbacher, Air
Force Personnel Center Air Force training
quota manager, who runs five to six miles
every other day and up to eight miles on the
weekends, ran into a health issue shortly
before summer began.
She ran until one day she could barely
walk due to pain in her right foot.
“I was really stubborn about the pain at
first,” Aulenbacher said. “When I had my
foot examined by a doctor, I learned I was
tearing microfibers in my Achilles tendon.
I had to completely stop running for two
weeks and was close to being put on profile.”
She pleaded not to be put on profile in order to continue physical activity – something
she loves to do.
“Before the injury, I was more concerned
with distance and pace than running mechanics,” Aulenbacher said. “Now I’m thinking about how I run differently.”
Leonard’s self-described motto is “prehab
before rehab” – practicing correct running
before pain strikes – “which can start as
simple tendonitis and then lead to larger is-
sues like meniscus tears, arthritis and disc
herniation in the back,” he said.
An ideal running form is landing on the
ball of the foot with a slightly forward lean
at a pace of 180 beats per minute, Leonard
said.
“At this cadence, stride length is shortened,” he added. “A metronome can help
reinforce this quick cadence and landing on
the balls of your feet.”
A tell-tale sign of erroneous running is
loud foot strikes.
“Runners should not be heard,” Leonard
said. “Running should sound like ‘tap, tap,
tap,’ not ‘thud, thud, thud.’”
Footwear plays a major role in how people run, Leonard said.
“The majority of shoes in the market have
elevated heel lifts, which cause the person to
land on the heel,” Leonard said. “The flatter
the shoe is the better.”
By correctly altering running form, people usually experience sore calves, Leonard
said, but that’s OK because they are conserving energy in the long run.
During an Air Force study while at
Altus Air Force Base, Okla., Leonard discovered Airmen who participated in a running program that evaluated their gait and
educated them on effective running shaved
two minutes off their PT test.
Real-world results in the form of injury
prevention, improved performance and better runners are what Leonard plans to bring
to the JBSA community.
The HAWC is scheduled to host a running
clinic Oct. 30.
Initial gait evaluation appointments at the
HAWC last about an hour.
For more information or to set an
appointment, call the HAWC at 652-2300.
Appointments via email may be made at
[email protected].

sexual contact and obstruction of justice.
He was sentenced to be discharged from
the service with a dishonorable discharge,
24 months confinement and reduction to
airman basic.
• In a special court-martial completed
June 28, a senior airman from the 737
TRSS was convicted of eight specifications
of violating a lawful general regulation
(wrongfully attempting to develop and con-
ducting a personal and sexual relationship
with eight trainees), one specification of
adultery and two specifications of obstructing justice. He was sentenced to reduction
to airman basic, six months confinement,
30 days hard labor without confinement
and forfeiture of $200 pay per month for
