FORT IRWIN, Calif. – "I can never say enough good things about our Army nurses and this week is a great opportunity to reflect on the nursing profession and recognize the contributions of our Army Nursing Team. Our officer, civilian, and enlisted service member's dedication and commitment to that profession is something that always leaves me impressed, awed and proud," said Col. Jason S. Wieman, Commander of the Weed Army Community Hospital speaking to the audience Friday, May. 6, 2016 during the opening celebration of National Nurses Week on Fort Irwin.

 

The week starts with National Nurses Day on May, 6 and ends with the International Nurses Day, Thursday, May 12.

 

Throughout the week the eyes of the Fort Irwin community are on WACH nurses and the importance of their work in support of National Training Center (NTC) Soldiers and their families. Efforts to recognize the role of nurses in our nation's healthcare system began in 1982, when the American Nurses Association (ANA) Board of Directors formally acknowledged May 6, 1982 as "National Nurses Day." In 1993 the ANA Board designated May 6 - 12, as lasting dates to observe National Nurses Week to culminate on the yearly observance of the birthday of Florence Nightingale.

FORT IRWIN, Calif. – Soldier ingenuity and esprit de corps provides a makeshift guidon during preparations for the Expert Field Medical Badge (EFMB) testing at the National Training Center (NTC) at Fort Irwin. Soldiers vying for the EFMB are on site prior to actual competition and marched in with the improvised guidon which they had constructed the night before. The symbol on the guidon is the Expert Field Medical Badge they hope to earn during testing Dec. 12 through 18 at the NTC.

 

The EFMB is awarded to military personnel who complete a variety of physical, mental and written tests that determine their ability to quickly, accurately and effectively perform complex life-saving medical tasks while in a variety of hostile environments and situations. The EFMB is considered the medical equivalent of the Expert Infantryman's Badge, but is said to be harder to earn than the EIB.

 

The Weed Army Community Hospital hosts and facilitates as well as oversees the qualification of events for Soldiers seeking to earn the badge at training areas within the NTC. Qualification for the badge is considered a grueling experience by those who have earned the badge and the majority of participants do not make it to the final round.

 

The 122 Soldiers vying for the coveted badge come from posts near and far across the United States.

Tempel, in his role as Chief U.S. Army Dental Corps, visited the Shuttleworth Dental Clinic and deliberately extended his schedule to tour the garrison dental facilities and meet with Lt. Col. Kelley Tomsett (center, left), Commander of the Fort Irwin Dental Clinic and her staff.

 

While touring the Shuttleworth facility Tempel observed dentists and dental technicians using real-time modeling technology combined with a state-of-the-art digital 3D printer device that cuts the need for multiple appointments from three to one. "We can create a perfectly formed crown for example, ready for placement by a dentist in less than two hours with this technology." said Dental Technician Charles Kim, when Tempel questioned him about its performance application patent satisfactions speaking to. "It doesn't just speed the process and create a millimeter- perfect crown." he said, "It also looks great."

 

Temple arrived for a three-day visit, his first visit to Fort Irwin, specifically to talk to Fort Irwin Weed Army Community Hospital (WACH) leaders, caregivers and hospital staff about a variety of subjects important to patients: resiliency and mental health, patient satisfaction, healthcare needs of Fort Irwin families and children, facility maintenance and many other health related topics.

 

While on Fort Irwin Temple also met with Maj. Gen. Joseph M. Martin, Commanding General, National Training Center and Fort Irwin to discuss a variety of issues, including Soldier health, readiness and resiliency, patient support/satisfaction and the opening of a new state-of-the-art replacement hospital on Fort Irwin scheduled for completion in the spring of 2017.

Sunset Colors

 

The red hues of the sky at sunset and sunrise are caused by Rayleigh scattering, the same mechanism that causes the sky to be blue. [1] [2] [3]

 

As light travels through the atmosphere, some of it is scattered at large angles by small particles. This type of scattering, where the particles are much smaller than the wavelength, is called Rayleigh scattering. Because Rayleigh scattering is much stronger for shorter wavelengths, like blue, the light from a clear sky is blue. Likewise, as the blue component is scattered out of a ray of sunlight, the remaining light becomes yellower. At sunrise or sunset the light has traveled a long distance through the atmosphere leaving only the longest wavelengths like orange and red. The reddened sunlight illuminates clouds and other particles. The combination of orange and red clouds and the blue sky can produce a variety of colors.

 

Volcanic eruptions release particles into the atmosphere that affect scattering. A number of eruptions in recent times, such as those of Mount Pinatubo in 1991 and Krakatoa in 1883, have been sufficiently large to produce remarkable sunsets and sunrises all over the world.

 

Sometimes just before sunrise or after sunset a green flash can be seen.

Summer is here! The dreaded heat brings with it one good thing….Mangoes! However, the bright spot in summer has an avoidable health risk associated with it.

Consumption of carbide ripened mangoes has shown to cause several health hazards, such as:

1. Mood disturbances

2. Memory loss

3. Seizures

4. Thyroid problems

5. Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)
