The Strategic Air Command arrived at RAF Alconbury on 1 October 1982 when the 17th Reconnaissance Wing (17th RW) was activated. The 17th RW was assigned to SAC's Eighth Air Force, 7th Air Division. The operational squadron of the 17th RW was the 95th Reconnaissance Squadron, flying the TR-1A, a tactical reconnaissance version of the Lockheed U-2. In 1992 all TR-1s were designated U-2Rs.

 

The arrival of the U-2 led to a large remodelling of the northern section of the airfield to accommodate these aircraft and their specialised mission. Work included the construction of five prefabricated ‘Ready Sheds’, thirteen extra-wide hardened aircraft shelters, a squadron headquarters, a massive Avionics and Photography Interpretation Centre, and new concrete aprons and taxiways. In addition, in order to ensure that the 17th Reconnaissance Wing would always have a command post for its TR-1A aircraft, a nuclear-hardened command post facility was constructed with its own power plant, communications facilities, air supply, and decontamination facility, to help the wing continue operations during a nuclear war. During its operation, it was officially known as Building 210, but was better known by its nickname, 'Magic Mountain'. It was closed in 1991, is now open to the public under the care of English Heritage. It has been refurbished, with plans for it to be used as an emergency facility in the event of a natural disaster.

 

Lt. Gen. Rick Lynch, commanding general of Installation Management Command, was the honored speaker at the All-Veterans Memorial Service on Sunday, April 17, 2011. He and his wife, Mrs. Sarah Lynch, attended the event along with Command Sgt. Maj. Neil Ciotola, held at the Monument for the Battle of Hill 881 South on Veterans Square Auditorium Circle in downtown San Antonio, Texas.

 

The Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 366 hosted the service on the last day of Fiesta, an 11-day “Party With a Purpose” that donates all proceeds to local charities. About 100 people attended the service, including members of the military from units and commands based in San Antonio, veterans, members of the Vietnamese-American Community and those simply wanting to say “thanks.”

 

Lynch told the story behind the monument dedicated to the Vietnam War’s Battle of Hill 881 South, an image of a radio operator treating a wounded comrade. The operator’s face is lifted toward the sky, searching for the medevac helicopter to help his friend, Lynch explained.

 

“I think a lot about freedom and about how somebody paid for it,” he said to the multitude of veterans and servicemembers in the crowd. “Those somebodies are here in the crowd today. I’m humbled to be in your presence.”

 

Pointing to the medals on his uniform, he said, “These trappings mean nothing to me. What’s important to me is recognizing those who serve. I want to thank you for your service.”

 

Lynch also took time to recognize the difficulties both Wounded Warriors and Gold Star Families face during recovery and asked that Americans take time thank them for their service. He reminded the crowd of the tragedy they have live through every day since the attack on Sept. 11 and that the Army will be fighting that war for another decade.

 

“We took the fight to there so we don’t have to fight on the streets of San Antonio,” he asserted as the crowd applauded. “We need your continued support.”

 

Trong Pham, chief engineer of the personnel system at Randolph Air Force Base, the “Expression of Gratitude” speaker at the service, represented the Vietnamese-American Community of San Antonio. Born and raised in Vietnam, he told the story of his escape from his home country in 1977 at age 19. His boat was lost on the South China Sea until he and the other refugees were rescued by American C-130 helicopters.

 

“I can’t express in words how much this event means to me,” he said. “This event reminded me of how fragile freedom is without sacrifice. We can’t enjoy the life we have here without our veterans.”

 

After arriving in America, Pham went on to earn a bachelor’s degree in engineering from the University of Texas at Austin, as well as a master’s and a Ph.D. during his 25 years of service with the Air Force. He continued to serve after his time in the military, working in civil service.

 

The event ended with a 21-gun salute and a solemn wreath-laying ceremony at the foot of the memorial. Lt. Gen.

Junior Command and Staff Course 18 graduates in Musanze | Musanze, 25 March 2022

A short and sweet product review of the Brick Command Wing Sword and Ninja Stars is now up on the site (The Ugly Duckling at BrickLink).

 

A big thanks to Pedro for sending these to me for review!

The memorial will stand as a fitting tribute to the 55,573 Bomber Command crew who lost their lives in the Second World War.

The Bomber Command Memorial has been designed by architect Liam O'Connor

The memorial has been built to be modern, yet classical, in Portland stone.

At its heart are the bronze sculptures of a Bomber Command aircrew.

Within the memorial, the space is open to the sky with an opening designed to allow light to fall directly onto sculptures of the aircrew.

The scale of the sculpture as a whole means that visitors will always see the profile of the sculpture against the sky above them, day and night - thus rendering that section of the sky powerfully symbolic for the memorial.

Reserve legal Soldiers learn family also key to readiness

 

By Sgt. 1st Class Rick Scavetta, U.S. Army Reserve Legal Command

 

GAITHERSBURG, Maryland – Taking part in Command Team Sync training was beneficial to Sgt. 1st Class Rob Kubowski, who recently became the chief paralegal noncommissioned officer for the 214th Legal Operations Detachment.

 

Kubowski, 30, of West Bend, Wisconsin, was among the 140 U.S. Army Reserve Legal Command Soldiers who took part in the three-day information sharing and training summit that will lead to enhanced readiness. Among the attendees were commanders, nine who are new to their jobs, and 21 warrant officers who serve as legal administrators.

 

For new paralegal NCOs like Kubowski, the wealth of information received over the three days was beneficial, he said. He and his incoming commander, Col. Richard Sugarman, took advantage of the opportunity to network.

 

“We went around and actually talked with each of the headquarters staff sections. That has been very helpful,” Kubowski said. “And there are pieces from all the briefs that will help us to continue to be successful.”

 

During his keynote presentation, Maj. Gen. Scottie Carpenter, U.S. Army Reserve Command’s deputy commander highlighted that Soldiers caring for their families is a key component to readiness. While the military is often a priority, USARC knows that a strong Soldier, during times of peace and times of war, is supported by their family, Carpenter said. He understands the strain on Soldiers and their families, something he said he sees all too often.

 

“Don’t forget the reason you’re in this uniform,” Carpenter said “You’re in this uniform for your county and your family. And your family is always number one.”

 

He warned the leaders to be aware that their military and professional lives can take their toll on their families.

 

“Some people forget that and they become so consumed between your careers,” Carpenter told the legal professionals. “Your career field is very technical, it’s very intense and it’s very time consuming. If you’re not careful, you can get wrapped up into that life and you’ll look back, one day, and you’re family is not there.”

 

Headquartered in Gaithersburg, about 25 miles northwest of Washington, D.C., USARLC oversees 1,800 personnel stationed in 104 cities in 43 states in the continental U.S. and two overseas locations. This includes Soldiers serving as judge advocates, warrant officers, paralegal noncommissioned officers, junior enlisted personnel, plus civilian para-professionals.

 

Under the command of Brig. Gen. Ural Glanville, USARLC serves the legal needs of Army Reserve Soldiers, Families, and Retirees. It also supports the active Army, backfilling units, working at installation legal offices and supporting forward deployed military missions.

 

“We have priorities that we need to meet, jobs we need to do and people we need to take care of,” Glanville said. “And we have our civilian lives and our families.”

 

Glanville also emphasized that Soldier readiness includes taking care of families.

 

“Our families are behind us. They support us, as we wear this uniform. When you’re at home, be the best you can be.”

 

The Army Reserve provides approximately 87 percent of the Army’s legal units and approximately 40 percent of the Army’s attorneys. Most of the command’s 28 detachments provide general legal services, administrative and operational law. Three LODs focus on trial defense service. One provides Army judges for courts-martial and another provides attorneys with specialized knowledge to the active component.

 

Glanville stressed the importance of Reserve Soldiers remaining close to their active duty counterparts and support to the active component, a reality enhanced by nearly 18 years of war.

 

“This relationship was forged by combat, we’ve stood shoulder to shoulder with our (active duty) brothers and sisters for that period of time. We don’t want to lose that. We truly are better together.”

 

Supporting U.S. Army Reserve units, while making sure our Soldiers receive proper training experience, should go hand in hand, Glanville said. Finding opportunities to support Reserve Soldiers and enhance legal experience is the goal.

 

“We serve two masters, the JAG Corps and the Army Reserve,” Glanville said. “We have to balance the needs of both.”

 

The second day’s training opened with a presentation by Maj. Gen. Stuart Risch, Deputy Judge Advocate General, who offered insight into the future of the JAG Corps.

 

“He offered us strategic direction, so we’re all on the same sheet of music, playing the same song,” said Col. Francis Kelly, of the New York City-based 4th LOD. “He emphasized readiness and resiliency. He also gave a picture of future, strategic initiatives. That’s beneficial.”

 

For Kubowski, the trip to Maryland gave him a sense that the USARLC leadership cares about the troops, sentiment that will resonate with the 214 LOD Soldiers back in Fort Snelling, Minnesota.

 

“First and foremost, the senior leadership here is genuinely concerned about issues at every LOD, whether it’s technology or lodging-in-kind. All of those things, they are concerned about and are committed to fixing,” Kubowski said. “It’s nice to see, here’s the problem – here’s the solution. That’s what I’ll take back.”
