Hispanic
heritage
By Academy Public Affairs
Diversity is one of the most
important components of the military, and the 2005 Academy
Hispanic Heritage Committee is
celebrating that diversity with events
starting today.
Hispanic Heritage Month kicks
off at 11:30 a.m. with a fiesta in
the community center ballroom.
The guest speaker will be retired
Brig. Gen. Joe Cubero, former
Academy dean of the Faculty and
current president of the Falcon
Foundation.
Other highlights include
Capoeira dancers and home-cooked
Hispanic food. Presentations will
also be made to the winners of an
essay contest for Air Academy High
School students and cadet art
contest, both sponsored by the
Hispanic Heritage Committee.
Hispanic Heritage Month is part
of a larger celebration of diversity
in the military.
“We need to take advantage of
and celebrate the heritage that we
as Americans all share, which comes
from a wide variety of races and
backgrounds,” said Col. Ellsworth
Tulberg, 10th Air Base Wing vice
commander and advisor for the
Hispanic Heritage Committee.
Hispanic Heritage month runs
to Oct. 15, and the Department of
Defense’s theme for this year is
“Hispanic Americans: Strong and
Colorful Threads in the American
Fabric.”
“This year’s committee is
focused on reaching out to all audiences on base.” said 2nd Lt. Faye

By Academy Public Affairs
The Academy’s newest
cadet is only 8 years old and
arrived for “duty” Sept. 16.
His name is Tyler
Trevarton of Broomfield,
Colo. Tyler suffers from endstage renal failure, and is
awaiting a kidney transplant.
Cadets welcomed their
newest “Cadet for a Day”
participant to the Academy
for a 9 a.m. flight. Via the
Make-A-Wish Foundation
and the Air Force Academy’s
Cadet for a Day program, the
youth donned a flight suit
and flight cap to participate
in a host of cadet activities.
These included a parachute demonstration at the
98th
Flying Training
Squadron and a tour of the
airfield control tower. Tyler
also visited the cadet area
with Cadet Squadron 31, his
honoary squardron and had
lunch with 4,000 Academy
cadets.
After lunch, Tyler showed
off his piloting skills in an Air
Battle Laboratory flight simulator, toured the cadet chapel
and met the Academy’s
falcons and falconers.
On Saturday, he joined
CS-31’s pre-game tailgating
and watched the Air Force
Academy vs. Wyoming football game from the Academy
Superintendent’s stadium
box.

Support Academy, not criticize
By Kay Granger
Texas Congresswoman and Board of Visitors member
I feel compelled to bring to your attention a matter
of national concern. I am a former teacher and education is a top priority for me. Because of my deep
personal commitment, I have served on the boards of a
number of educational institutions, and I currently
serve as a member of the U. S. Air Force Academy
Board of Visitors. The board, under the strong leadership of former Virginia governor Jim Gilmore, is as
engaged and attentive as any board on which I have
served. Other Congressional members on the board are
Senators Wayne Allard, Larry Craig and Mark Pryor
and Representatives Joel Hefley and Carolyn
Kilpatrick. From our vantage point, we have had a clear
view of the cultural problems that surfaced at USAFA,
as well as the response by both the Air Force and
USAFA leadership.
Let me state this clearly – I have never seen an
institution face its problems more courageously,
examine itself more carefully, and set goals to achieve
change more clearly than USAFA. After the report was
issued from the commission on sexual assault headed
by former colleague Tillie Fowler, the administration,
staff, board and cadets made enormous changes to the
Academy, and the efforts should be a model for institutions throughout the nation. Lieutenant General John
Rosa, Academy Superintendent, has exercised tremendous leadership since he took command of the
Academy in July 2003. General Rosa deserves nothing
but praise for leading the Academy through this difficult time and I am grateful for his service.
The problem of religious intolerance and discrimination was discovered through student surveys initiated
by the Academy and that problem is being addressed;
however, I can’t state clearly enough that the resulting
media coverage has blown this issue completely out of
proportion.
Like any institution of higher learning, the
Academy faces those cultural challenges prevalent
among youth in America today. The difference is that
dedicated Air Force and Academy leadership are identifying and addressing the tough issues such as sexual
assault and religious intolerance in an open and forthright manner – while their smallest actions are
dissected and analyzed under the national microscope.
Identifying the right solutions for the Academy is even
more difficult because they must maintain that critical
balance between military institution and a university. If
we only held the Academy to the same standard as a
civilian university then there would be no cause for
concern. In actuality, the Academy campus is undoubtedly one of the safest in America. I only wish other
universities would follow in their strong lead. The fact
is the Academy is light years ahead of most universities
in addressing and resolving these issues. The
Academy should be praised, not criticized.
Unfortunately, those most hurt by overzealous
criticism are the cadets themselves. I am very
concerned about the long-term impact this excessively
negative publicity will have on these bright, energetic
young people from all over America who are dedicating themselves to the service of our nation. The
steady stream of untrue, and sometimes outlandishly
unfair, assertions leave the totally inaccurate impression of routine rapes and rampant proselytizing. This
negative atmosphere takes an underserved toll on the
cadets (and the faculty and staff who mentor them).
They should be totally focused on learning to be the
best officers they can, rather than being distracted by
the constant bombardment in the media that unjustly
sullies their reputations. These are young men and
women we appointed – and they are great individuals.
If you have any doubt what I am telling you is true, I
strongly urge you to personally visit your Air Force
Academy. You will return proud of the Academy, its
leadership and the cadets.
Please join me in spreading the truth. The
Academy is a national jewel. The cadets are among
the finest men and women America has to offer. Air
Force and Academy leadership are out ahead boldly
addressing critical national issues and for that, they
deserve our support and praise; not criticism.
Character has no off-switch
By Col. Michael Isherwood
355th Wing vice commander
“At least I can say I served with men of character.”
— Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower
General Eisenhower wrote those words to his son
when rumors surfaced that he would be forced to retire
during the early days of World War II. Serving with men
and women of character for the good of our nation is
perhaps the greatest reason why we remain in uniform.
Simply said, character counts.
This is true of the Airmen I see as I travel to the
flight line, backshops and work centers.
I find young Airmen of character. They tell me how
it is. Good and bad. I can sense their unease at passing
along bad news. I suppose they fear they might get
blamed or that they’re making their leadership look bad.
Their character allows them to shoot straight with me
and pass along bad news.
But this wing’s leaders are not interested in blame.
They are committed to fixing problems. If we don’t
know the problems, we can’t get the resources, time or
training to allow the mission to get done.
This same character must be present when we take
off our uniforms after our shift and on weekends. Our
standards apply 365/24/7. We must demonstrate our
integrity fresh each day.
How? There are many examples.
You and I surely have seen examples when we’re

out with friends at a restaurant, club or someone’s
house. We see someone have a couple of beers or alcoholic drinks. The “easy” thing is to not say anything …
not to highlight them as not able to drive home.
Or, we see a fellow Airman, underage, with a beer
in their hand. Our character, however, compels us to
step up and shoot straight with them. In the first case,
get their keys. In the second case, get them a soda.
That’s how character counts when we’re out of
uniform. Character is not a light switch that we turn on
when convenient or when we put on our BDUs or flightsuits.
Character is what compels you to set aside your
interests to help the “new guy” or young Airman master
his or her career development course or technical skills.
You pause on your way home or to lunch to ask how he
or she is doing. Then, you act ... to help that Airman
learn what you know. That’s character.
We must have character when we show installation
stewardship. We translate “don’t walk by a problem” to
“pick up that empty plastic bottle” along the curb at the
base exchange. You set the example. That’s character.
Finally, we must have character when we fight
when called. Airmen here have demonstrated character
in spades for years.

Security Forces showed character as they stood alert
at the entry point to Balad and other bases. They stood
alert for the next suicide bomber.
The explosive ordnance disposal Airmen showed
character when they disarmed more than 260,000
pounds of explosives. Several hundred improvised
explosive devices were among that count. They did
almost 1,000 missions, most while under direct and indirect fire.
Vehicle operators showed character as they drove
more than 500 convoys in Iraq. They delivered a million
tons of supplies. And, they were attacked more than 100
times. One Airman told me how a rocket-propelled
grenade ricocheted two feet in front of him. Another
told a story of how he recognized AK-47 slugs passing
through the cab of his vehicle.
These Airmen are steadfast in their duty. Their character gives them a sense of purpose and drive to get the
mission done, to not falter as part of the team, not let
their buddies down around them.
We know that it is not if or when we will come
under hostile fire. The question will be how often.

Majors Night seeks academic majors
By the Academy Public Affairs
Rocket motors, human brain matter, satellites, robots,
a spacesuit and a lovable 8-foot boa constrictor named
Martha all awaited Academy freshmen and sophomores
during the Academy’s Academic Majors’ Night, Sept. 15,
in Fairchild Hall.
Majors’Night offered the Academy’s 1,298 freshmen,
400 currently undeclared sophomores, and the Preparatory
School’s cadet candidates, the chance to learn more about
the opportunities, requirements and adventures available in the Academy’s 32 academic majors and two
minors.
For this event, each academic department showcased its most visual and unusual wares. For the
Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, that
came in the form of cadet-built robots.
From the Astronautics Department, cadet-designed
satellites and solid fuel rocket motors were demonstrated, while the History Department instructors donned
historic military uniforms.
As usual, the biology department turned a few heads
when they brought out the cold-blooded Martha.
Martha, an 8-foot boa constrictor is housed in the
Biology Department. The 33-pound snake spent the
evening wrapped around a Biology Department member,
gently looking around and waiting to be petted by the
often-shocked passers-by.
A bit further down the hall, the Behavioral Scientists
showed off human brain tissue samples that cadets study
in an effort to understand the biological aspects of human
behavior.
While the visual impact drew the cadets in, it was then
up to the instructors to explain where their department’s
particular offerings can lead in terms of challenging classwork, and how their academic majors translate into a
specific Air Force career.
Each cadet must select their academic major by the
middle of their third semester at the Academy.

Web site educates work force on Constitution, citizenship
American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON – The Defense Department developed a new way for its employees to learn more about
the Constitution and citizenship as part of the national
attention on both this week.
A new DoD Web site at http://constitutionday.
cpms.osd.mil contains a 20-minute course on the
Constitution that highlights the relationship between
the Constitution and DoD employees. Also included is
the complete text of the Constitution, an interactive
timeline of events before and after the signing of the document, and a question-and-answer section.
The new Web site was developed to support the
efforts of the heads of DoD components responsible for
providing educational materials on the Constitution Day
and Citizenship Day, officials said.
Each DoD component may organize activities
including educational programs and ceremonies to reaffirm the oath of office that federal employees take upon
appointment to the federal service, officials noted.
Constitution Day and Citizenship Day were established through Public Law 108-447, which also requires
that training and educational materials on the Constitution
are made available to all federal agency employees each
year.
“I encourage federal, state and local officials, as well
as leaders of civic, social and educational organizations,
to conduct ceremonies and programs that celebrate our
Constitution and reaffirm our rights and obligations as
citizens of our great nation,” President Bush said in a
proclamation which designated Sept. 17 as Citizenship
Day, and the week of Sept. 17-23 as Constitution Week.
Congress issued a joint resolution as well.
“Constitution Day and Citizenship Day is an important occasion for all Americans, but it has special
significance for members of the DoD family who
work so hard and sacrifice so much to protect and defend
the principles of liberty and democracy upon which
this great nation was founded,” said Marilee Fitzgerald,
acting deputy undersecretary of defense for civilian
personnel policy.

Fernandes,
Hispanic
Heritage
Committee Chair.
“We’d like to get as many people as
possible involved in this celebration,
which is why we’ve planned events
involving active duty personnel, cadets
and children here on the Academy,” she
said.
Volunteers are needed for two other
events this month. People can help children make a chicken enchilada dinner
at the youth center starting at 4 p.m.,
Monday.
The child development center needs
people to read to children Wednesday
at 2 p.m. Books on Hispanic heritage,
food and other appropriate topics will
be provided.
Capt. Eric Garcia, Hispanic Heritage
Committee member, said both children
and staff are excited to have people
participate in these events. “The kids
have a lot of fun with this, and we’re
hoping to get a good turnout,” he said.
The finale event for the Academy’s
celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month
will be a dance at Arnold Hall Oct. 29
from 6 p.m. to midnight. Food will be
provided by the Hispanic Heritage
Committee, and the cadet club Los
Padrinos will have a DJ and dance lessons.
Cadets, as well as active duty and other
base personnel, are invited to attend.
Lieutenant Fernandes says celebrating Hispanic Heritage is vital to
those both within the military and
outside of it.
“Because Hispanic Americans make
up less than seven percent of the Air
Force’s population and less than four
percent of our officers,we need to make
sure that they and all minorities recognize they are important to the Air Force
mission.”
For tickets or more information on
any of these events call Lieutenant
Fernandes, Academy Public Affairs, at
333-7608.
Traffic flow
A few sporting events will impact Academy traffic flow Saturday.The
Cheney King Bike Race (blue route) and 10K Run (green route) are
from 7 a.m. to noon. The U.S. Olympic Committee Paralympics
Bicycle Time Trials (red route) is from 2 - 4:30 p.m. Road guards will
be placed at key intersections to control traffic. Be mindful and slow
down when bike riders and runners are present.

Cadets volunteer military skills for orienteering club
By Eddie Kovsky
Academy Spirit staff
Two members of Cadet Squadron
22 gave up their Saturday afternoon to
help out at the National Orienteering
Day in Black Forest.
Cadet 1st Class Marie NicholsonHutt and Cadet 1st Class Daniella Heller
spent the day handing out maps, clue
sheets, collecting money, registering
participants, recruiting new members,
answering a lot of basic orienteering
questions and running through courses
to pick up markers.
Orienteering participants use a map
and compass to locate a series of checkpoints shown on a specialized topographic map. The goal is to find all the
checkpoints and get to the finish line in
the shortest amount of time. Successful
completion of a course requires good
map reading skills in addition to overall
physical fitness.
Cadet Nicholson-Hutt started helping
with the Rocky Mountain Orienteering
Club last spring when she was looking
for volunteer opportunities for her
squadron. Last weekend’s meet in Black
Forest was the second time they had
participated as volunteers since their first
meet in Boulder last spring.
“I was looking through the Colorado
Adventure magazine and saw the orienteering club and thought it would be a good
thing to get cadets involved in,” said Cadet
Nicholson-Hutt. “I thought they (the orineteering club) would like help from cadets
who have been through survival training and
have the skills necessary to navigate through
the Colorado forests.”
The Rocky Mountain Orienteering
Club hosts 15-20 orienteering meets per year
in Colorado.
“The club aims to introduce the sport
of orienteering to kids and adult beginners,
as well as to provide challenging courses
to more experienced orienteers,” said Brooke
Mann, Black Forest meet director. “We
host a multi-day national event every
summer.”
The Black Forest meet is specifically
targeted at kids, families and beginners.
The event organizers offered free beginner
instruction, and free compasses and hats
were provided to participants.
The Black Forest meet is one of
RMOC’s more popular events each year,
with more than 80 participants coming out
this year.

MyPay aims to
Academy sets bar
curb identity theft high for CFC ’05
Air Force Print News
ARLINGTON, Va. — The undersecretary of defense-comptroller and the
undersecretary of defense for personnel
and readiness have cosigned a new policy
that directs military departments and all
defense civilian employees to support the
policy to eliminate paper copies of leave
and earnings statements and W-2 tax statements.
Under the new policy, servicemembers and civilian nonbargaining employees
who log on to the myPay Web site are
consenting to receive electronic copies
of their documents.
Bargaining unit civilians will be
brought onto this system as soon as local
negotiations are completed.
MyPay is currently available to all
servicemembers, Department of Defense
civilian employees, and military retirees
and annuitants. Although the policy applies
to servicemembers and DoD civilians,
the benefits of using myPay to eliminate
identity theft associated with postal
delivery of these statements also applies
to retirees and annuitants for their 1099
tax statements.
For many years, myPay has provided
servicemembers and civilian employees
with a secure method to view, print and
save their LES, W-2 or 1099s electronically. Receipt of electronic documents
eliminates risk associated with handdelivered mail. By using myPay to view
and print statements, names, addresses
and Social Security numbers are
protected.
The individual controls when the
document is viewed and printed, and
sensitive data is under his or her control
at all times. This is particularly important for W-2s and 1099s, where the SSN
cannot be masked because of Internal
Revenue Service regulations.
Besides obtaining electronic copies
of LES and tax statements, customers can
make adjustments to federal and state
tax withholdings and update bank account
and electronic transfers by accessing
myPay.

The 2005 Combined Federal
Campaign kicks off Tuesday, with a
ceremony in the Arnold Hall ballroom.
The campaign, which runs through
Nov. 8, aims to increase donations by 5
percent and participation from 32 percent
to 33 percent.
Maj. Rebekah Friday, Academy CFC
project officer, calculates that if every
base employee contributes what they
make in an hour, just once per month,
the Academy will reach 100 percent of
it’s goal.
The CFC was established in 1961
and is the largest workplace charity
campaign in the country.
This annual fall fundraising drive
allows nearly four million federal
employees and servicemembers to
contribute to thousands of local and
national nonprofit organizations.
Last year, federal employees and
servicemembers donated a record-setting
$257 million to the campaign.
Contributions can be in cash, check or
by payroll deduction.
On average, one in four federal
employees or their dependents will
benefit from the campaign charities this
year, CFC officials said.
Donors may designate which charity,
or charities, receives their money by

Civilians have ways to help Katrina survivors
Air Force Print News
RANDOLPH AFB, Texas — In the aftermath of
Hurricane Katrina, many Americans want to do whatever they can to help those directly affected, and now
government civilians have some opportunities to help
in the effort.
The emergency leave transfer and the federal
employee volunteer programs are two avenues civilian
employees can take to do their part in helping hurricane
victims.
Through the emergency leave transfer program,
Air Force civilian employees may donate unused annual
leave for transfer to fellow employees adversely affected
by the hurricane.
Leave transfer recipients who need additional time
off from work can then do so without having to use their
own paid annual or sick leave.
“This is a great opportunity for each of us to help
fellow government civilians as they need time to care
for a variety of family issues as a result of Hurricane
Katrina,” said Greg Den Herder, Air Force Personnel
Cadet arrested
for alleged
sexual assault
Center executive director here.
Emergency leave donors may contribute up to 104
hours of leave in a leave year, but they cannot contribute
leave to a specific person. Donated annual leave not used
by emergency leave recipients will be restored to emergency leave donors.
Employees may volunteer to become emergency
leave donors by submitting an Office of Personnel
Management Form 1638 through their civilian personnel
flight to the Air Force Personnel Center’s civilian field
activities office. The form must state the specified
number of hours of accrued annual leave to be transferred from their annual leave accounts to the leave
program.
In another effort to help hurricane victims, government civilian employees may also volunteer to help the
Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Hurricane
Katrina efforts through the federal employee volunteer
program.
“Air Force civilians are already providing outstanding
assistance to those in need simply by doing their jobs,”
Mr. Herder said. “This program offers those people,
whom supervisors can release, another way to serve in
this effort to overcome the effects of Hurricane Katrina.”
Potential volunteers must receive permission from
their chain of command to participate. Those who volunteer will likely face difficult working conditions while
being exposed to potential dangers to their health and
well-being. Volunteers should also expect to be deployed
a minimum of 30 days to locations affected by Hurricane
Katrina as determined by FEMA.
Along with this awareness, supervisors must weigh
the volunteer opportunity against costs to the unit.
Volunteers’ units will continue to pay salary and benefit
costs, including workers compensation costs if volunteer employees are injured. FEMA officials expect to
pay additional travel, overtime and training costs, but
owning organizations must be prepared to cover those
costs until reimbursement is made.
Interested civilian employees, with their supervisors’
permission, should contact their base civilian personnel
office for more information.

cials by another cadet attending the party. An unknown
number of other cadets were present in the residence
at the time the alleged crime occurred. Alcohol was
involved in the incident.
Academy Office of Special Investigations officials
are assisting the Fountain Police Department in a
joint investigation into the incident.
As in every case, the Academy’s leaders take any
allegation of sexual assault very seriously and will fully
cooperate with local authorities in their investigation.
A third class cadet was arrested Monday by
Fountain, Colo., police and charged with sexual assault
in the first degree.
He was released on bail Tuesday, and has resumed
classes and regular duties.
The alleged incident occurred overnight, Saturday
and Sunday, Sept. 10-11, during a party involving
20-30 people at a private residence in Fountain.
It was reported to Academy security forces offi-

Wings of Blue catch air
By Tech. Sgt. Matt Gilreath
21st Space Wing Public Affairs
Most college students are still sleeping at 5 a.m.
Some might be getting up early to cram for an upcoming
exam.
That’s when some Academy students are preparing
for an adrenaline rush only a few people can ever dream
about.
They are the men and women of the Wings of Blue
parachute demonstration team.
Technical Sgt. Jason Tepool, NCO-in-charge of
the team, has been an instructor at the Academy for
15 months, but has been jumping for 17 years. He has
more than 12,000 jumps to his credit.
He said before the cadets get to step out of an
airplane, they must first step into the aerospace physiology altitude chamber at Peterson Air Force Base.
“We have to make sure the cadets can perform at
the altitudes we jump at,” Sergeant Tepool said. “We
have a couple of instructors who go down to Peterson
to help out with cadet training and sometimes with
the Army troops from Fort Carson who certify here.
We don’t want anyone getting hurt.”
Sergeant Tepool said once they get past the
chamber, it’s off to jump school and opportunities to
perform in front of millions of people.
“We did our first jump Sept. 3 into Qwest Field
up in Seattle for the Academy’s first game,” Sergeant
Tepool said. “This year we’ll be jumping into the
Insight, Fiesta and Rose Bowl games.”
The jump master said being in the spotlight is great,
but he likes to work things on a smaller scale.
“I really like when we get to jump into high school
football games,” Sergeant Tepool said. “What a great
recruiting tool. The cadets get a chance to talk with
students and tell them what Academy life is like.”
It was that same kind of event and wanting to
follow in her father’s footsteps that motivated Cadet
1st Class Jennifer Evans to join the Air Force and
pursue her goal of being a member of the team.
“My father was a pilot and used to jump,” Cadet
Evans said. “I heard about the Wings of Blue when I
was in high school and decided that is what I wanted
to do.”
Sergeant Tepool said making the team isn’t
easy, out of an average of 200 applicants, only 25
make the cut. He said the freshmen and sophomores make up the team of hopefuls they affectionately call, the ‘Wings of Green.’
“There are 25 juniors and 25 seniors who
make up the Wings of Blue,” Sergeant Tepool
said. “They are the ones responsible for training
the lower classman. It builds teamwork and our
most important focus, character development and
Airmanship.”
With so many cadets wanting to learn how to
jump, one of the most important functions is
maintaining the parachutes.
Mr. Steve Archuletta, parachute loft superintendent, said the loft has nine riggers and they
keep 500 chutes online at once.
“It’s a lot of work,” Mr. Archuletta said. “We
have a lot of experience here between our civilian
and military people. One of our most experienced guys, Bonz Alteri, is a former Golden
Knight (Army elite parachute team).”
With every stitch checked and automatic activation devices calibrated, the Wings of Blue board
the plane with confidence.
Sergeant Tepool said they look forward to
new challenges and adventures.

look to the sky and say, “That’s what I want

Cadet joins world power lifting elite
By Wayne Amann
Academy Spirit staff
In Cadet Squadron 4, he’s known simply as the guy
who lifts a lot of weight. Outside the Academy he’s
recognized as the world’s third strongest 18-23-yearold.
Cadet 2nd Class Mike Tuchscherer (pronounced
too-sheer) finished third overall, in the field of more
than 250, at the International Powerlifting Federation’s
World Subjunior and Junior Powerlifting Championship,
Sept. 7-11, in Fort Wayne, Ind.
His 749.5 pound squat won him a bronze medal,
while his 573 pound bench press earned him a gold
medal. Both were personal bests. His dead lift was
688.75 pounds.
Tuchscherer’s showing helped the United States (58
points) finish second to Russia (70 points), in the 21team international field.
The 270-pound junior management major’s three
lift total of 2,011.25 pounds trailed only Alexey Pankov
and Anton Kibiru of Russia who lifted 2,154.75 pounds
and 2,089.25 pounds respectively, in the 243- to 275pound weight class.
“They did what I thought they would do,”
Tuchscherer said. “I knew it was going to be close. I’m
one of those people gunning for first place all the
time.”
Five months earlier at the U.S. Powerlifting
Collegiate Nationals in Baton Rouge, La., the Corydon,
Ind., product hoisted a meet record total 2,007 pounds,
including a 551-pound record bench press, to take
first place in his weight class, the first cadet to do so
in 17 years.
Accomplishments and notoriety aside, the soft-

spoken Hoosier is blazing a trail he hopes other studentlifters will follow under the Academy’s Fitness Club
umbrella.
“We try to make it as team oriented as possible,
even though you’re on your own lifting,” the 20-yearold Tuchscherer explained. “I’m the cadet-in-charge
of the team so I try to develop programs to help the
junior athletes succeed. The freshmen and sophomores need a little more direction. I explain the ‘why’
of the programs to them.”

where he believes they’ll be competitive.
“I’m excited about that,” he said.
“Generally speaking, most cadets could
do really well at a local competition
because they’re pretty strong, at least
in the bench press. We have some people
who’ve been training hard. A couple
may qualify for the collegiate nationals.”
If they do, Academy backing will be
instrumental to their success as
Tuchscherer can attest.
“Money is the big thing,” he said.
“Without the support of the Association
of Graduates and cadet clubs, it wouldn’t
be possible. They financed my trips to
Louisiana and Indiana. They picked up
the tab for plane tickets, hotel rooms, the

expenses. This leaves money

and other cadet clubs.”
When Tuchscherer isn’t
training three to five days a
week, he’s an avid student of
his sport.
“I try to be as intense and
as focused as possible in the
gym, plus I do a lot of power
lifting research on my own,”
he pointed out. “Sometimes I

Cadet Life: A day in aca
By the Academy Spirit staff
A random peek into Academy classrooms
yields an incredible diversity of efforts and disciplines.
In the Academy Astronautics Lab, two cadets
were making a demonstration one morning earlier
this month.
Cadets 1st Class Mike Grant and Nicole
Stenstad were showing Staff Sgt. Mickael
Wickershien how to hook up FalconSAT-2’s umbilical for battery charging in the classroom.
Not far away, Cadet 1st Class Rob Holland was
hefting a block of aluminum.
The new milling machine enables cadets to
fabricate all of the mechanical structures for inhouse FalconSAT efforts.
“The machine I placed it in can make it into
almost any shape I need,” said the 21-year-old cadet
majoring in astronautical engineering.
The senior cadet said he is working at getting
ahead of classes, trying to work more during the
day than late at night.
From languages to lasers, Academy classrooms
and state of the art facilities and projects offer a
daily flow of challenges and learning experiences.
Cadet 1st Class Tyler Kimes, 21, Eden Prairie,
Minn., was inspecting the antenna set up of
FalconSAT-3’s qualification model.
“We were trying to get a feel for the program
that we just entered at the start of this semester, and
getting right into it is the best way to learn,” said the
astronautical engineering major.
The Falcons football player said concentrating
his focus and energy in Fairchild Hall’s Astro
classes can be hard, but he keeps up with Lt. Col.
Timothy Lawrence’s classes.
“There are a lot of different things at the
academy that all compete for a cadet’s time but it is
important to push forward every day and devote
your full attention to the present and not stress
about what may be coming up,” said Cadet Kimes.
“It makes for some long days and short nights of
sleep but the end result is an engineering degree
from one of the best programs in the nation, which
puts me right where I want to be.”
It’s all in a day of academics at the Academy
for this cadet.
“This is my senior year and I don’t have much
time to myself, but playing division I football and
getting my engineering degree will be the best
experience of my life,” Cadet Kimes said.
Cadets 4th Class Hunter Myers, James
Burrows and Michelle Fryling were working an
answer to a “limit” question in Maj. Lem Myers’
Math 141.
That morning, Cadet Stenstad, 21, Woodbury,
Minn., had a good feeling about what she was
doing.
“It’s awesome to know that my efforts will
help send our satellites into space,” said the astronautical engineering major. “So many students
don’t get such great ‘hands-on’ opportunities. I
really want to succeed in this program. I feel like
I’m making a worthwhile contribution and
learning so much at the same time.”
She said classes have become more challenging at the Academy.
“I find that it is easier to succeed in classes
that I can relate to and enjoy,” Cadet Stenstad said.
“My Astro classes keep me busy, but interested. In
less than a year my classmates and I will be taking
part in real missions and that motivates me to learn
all that I can now.”
Cadet 1st Class Michael Cole was studying an
unusual enzyme that stays stable at extreme temperatures, using molecular techniques to identify the
gene that leads to production of the enzyme.
In another Fairchild Hall classroom during the
second hour, Cadet 3rd Class Beverly Broome,
majoring in economics with a minor in Chinese,
was immersed in Maj. Paul Howe’s Introduction to
Chinese 131. They were writing new Chinese
words on the blackboard.
“We do this because writing Chinese characters
helps reinforce meaning and retention,” said Maj.
Howe. “The character has a good story behind it.
It’s pronounced nán and means ‘man’ or ‘male.’
The top part of the character means ‘field’ and the
bottom part is ‘strength,’ so a memory tool for this
character could be ‘strength in the field equals
man’.”
Students began the class with little or no exposure to Chinese, said Maj. Howe.
“This is a very challenging program because
there are no individual letters like we have in the
English language,” said Cadet Broome, 19,
Springfield, Pa. “Each word has its own character to
represent it.”
Like other cadets, she was feeling the pressures
of academic requirements
“Sometimes it is very difficult to keep ahead
with classes at the Academy because we all do so
much,” Cadet Broome said. “I have intramurals, I play lacrosse, have to sit CQ
(dorm admin. duty) and constantly have
meetings to attend. I just try to stay organized.”
Some classrooms away, students pored
over the parts of a UAV in Lt. Col. Ricky
Sward’s CS 453 Software Engineering I, the
Computer Science Department’s year-long
capstone course for computer science
majors.
Cadets 1st Class Jonathan Ball and
Adrian deFreitas appeared intent on the
UAV servos, batteries, power converters,
autopilot, wiring antennae and other
components.
“The plane is initially controlled by the
RC controller, then controlled by a
computer through the autopilot,” the
instructor told them.
This year, 453’s project is to take
video from a camera on board the UAV as
it is flying, capture it on the ground and
then have the video available in the
command post.

Air Force grounded in All-Armed Forces tourney
By Wayne Amann
Academy Spirit staff
The Air Force volleyball team
painfully learned all good things
come to an end.
Entering the second annual
All-Armed Forces Tournament
Sept. 16 and Saturday at Clune
Arena the Falcons had a seven
match winning streak, and 9-1 alltime series lead over Army and
an 8-0 all-time series advantage
over Navy.
The Black Knights and
Midshipmen did an about-face,
or at least put a halt to both trends,
when they defeated the Falcons
to prevent Air Force from repeating
as tourney champions. Both
finished the tournament with 2-0
match records but Army was
awarded the title thanks to its 6-1
record in games compared to
Navy’s 6-2 mark. Air Force was 12 and the Citadel 0-3 in match
play.
Navy downed the Falcons 3024, 22-30, 30-27 and 30-23, while
Army rallied for a 26-30, 30-21,
30-23, 30-22 victory. Those
setbacks were sandwiched around
Air Force’s 30-28, 30-20, 30-29
sweep over the Citadel Bulldogs.
The win was little consolation for the bluesuiters.
“It hurts a lot to be beaten on
your home court by them for the
first time in the 10 years I’ve been
here,” Falcon Head Coach Penny

Air Force outside hitter, Elizabeth Arrington, attacks the ball
Saturday as Army’s Rachael Breinling, 7, and Abby Casiato,
2, attempt to block the shot.
Lucas-White admitted. “I’ve got
to give Army their due. They were
well prepared and so was Navy.”
Meanwhile, Air Force was
not 100 percent healthy for the
tourney. Kristin Hamlett, who
was injured in the Sept. 13 match
at the University of Northern
Colorado, saw limited playing
time against Navy and Army and
didn’t appear at all against the
Citadel. The 6’Escondido, Calif.,
senior entered the tournament
leading the Falcons in kills (173),
digs (92), blocked shots (18) and
service aces (13).
“She went down with a thirddegree right ankle sprain on the
first play of the match,” LucasWhite explained. “She had treatment around the clock. Just to get
her out there was huge. (The original prognosis had Hamlett out of
action four to six weeks.) She’s
the leader in everything for us.”
Hamlett’s presence on the floor
inspired her teammates in game
one versus Army.
Her block tied the score at 8.
From there the Falcons reeled off
five unanswered points including
a back-to-back kill and service
ace by Rebecca Gallegos.
Army pulled within 19-16
when a Hamlett kill triggered a
10-4 Air Force run highlighted by
a back-to-back kill and block by
6’ 2” sophomore Brooke Akers.
“Kristin’s a big, strong force,”
Akers said. “We do what we can
to help her compensate for her
injury, while keeping her in the
game as long as possible.”
Army rallied with six straight
points before Gallegos’ third kill
of the game won it.
From there, the Black Knights
took charge of the match.
Falcon senior outside hitter
Brianna Thomas’ kill tied game
two at 4 before an Air Force error
and six consecutive kills staked
Army to an 11-4 lead they would
never relinquish.
Air Force could pull no closer
than three points the rest of the way,
eventually losing by nine.
The Falcons led game three,
6-4, when Army’s Elizabeth
Lazzari drilled the first of her
game-high nine kills. The point
ignited a 13-6 run forcing LucasWhite to call a time out. The respite
didn’t matter.
Air Force closed the gap to 2017 with a Carly Siefken kill before
Army pulled away. Lazzari sandwiched two kills around an Air
Force error to end it.
Facing elimination in game
four, Air Force got an Elizabeth
Arrington kill to tie matters at 6.
But, an Air Force error and three
straight Army kills gave the Black
Knights the lead for good.
“I can’t say I was overjoyed
by the way some of our kids
stepped up,” Lucas-White said.
“They should have brought more.
We’ll work on that in practice.
We’ve got to get stronger.”
Lucas-White had each Falcon
write a two-page paper this week
on what they can do, individually,
not just to compete, but beat their
opponents. Air Force dropped to
4-9 on the season following the
tournament.
Pennell, Hospital halt cops, grab flag lead
By Wayne Amann
Academy Spirit staff
It was a boxing match without
gloves, a 40-minute toe-to-toe bout.
Two undefeated heavyweights,
the 10th Medical Group and the
10th Security Forces Squadron,
traded fiesty blows Tuesday hoping
to claim undisputed first place in the
Academy Intramural Flag Football
League on Field #2.
SFS was a two-point conversion away from tying the game at
14 with 1:20 left in regulation.
Cops quarterback Rick Martin
spotted Mike Wardingley open, just
inside the end zone pylon, and fired.
The Medic’s Drew Pennell broke up
the pass at the last instant to protect
the lead for the eventual 20-12
Hospital win.
“That was the key play in the
game,” Hospital coach Cordney
Morehead acknowledged. “That
preserved the victory for us.”
The knockout punch came with
:45 left. The Cops’ Scott Jacobson
fielded a punt deep in his own territory. Just before getting ‘tackled’his
lateral was intercepted by Luis Najar
who ran it back for an insurance
touchdown.
“I knew he was going to run it
to the outside and he was contained
so I stayed back a little,” Najar said.
“When he pitched it to the other
return man, I stepped in and took
it all the way. Special teams helped
us out a lot.”
The Medics defense provided
an early spark by hurrying SFS
quarterback Rick Martin into
throwing three straight incompletions inside the Hospital 20-yard line
on the game’s first possession.
Hospital (5-0) took over on
downs and capitalized. Quarterback Cyril Luster found Pennell
circling out of the backfield and
the Hickory, N.C., product raced
down the left sideline for a 58-yard
touchdown.
“We planned on exploiting their
secondary,” Pennell said. “I caught
a little burst when I saw the goal line.
I felt them getting a little close so
I had to kick in the speed and leave
them.”
Pennell’s extra point made it 70.
Another defensive stop inside
SFS territory gave the Medics excellent field position at the Cops 35.
A 30-yard Luster pass to Carl
Jackson parked Hospital on the
SFS 5. Following a sack, Luster
scrambled to his left to escape a

heavy SFS rush and flipped the ball
to Pennell, who beat two defenders
to the goal line from 10 yards out.
“We expected they would pressure us hard so I slid out of the
pocket,” Luster explained. “Some
scrambling is by design. A lot of it
was by habit. We had to make them
pay with big plays.”
A second Pennell point-after
catch ballooned the lead to 14-0,

Luke Hopstad intercepting a Martin

point failed, but the Cops weren’t
through.
After a Hospital punt, SFS
drove. A key fourth down completion to Bill Allen, who was held in
check by Luke Hopstad most of
the game, set up Martin’s 15-yard

Tracking bomb threats
The first step in tracking bomb threats
is to use the Air Force Form 440 (the
yellow bomb threat reporting card next to
every phone) to record the threat. All
government phones should have this card
next to them. After the threat has been
made and the caller hangs up, these steps
should be followed:
—Hang up the phone, pick it back up
and dial *57 (this marks the incoming
phone number to help with the trace.)
— Listen for two quick tones and
then hang up the phone.
— Call security forces at 911 or 3332000/2001 to report the threat.
The last two steps are not printed on
the current AF Form 440 because they are
specific to the Academy. Employees should
pencil in the last two steps on the bottom
of the front of the card.
