Landstuhl’s Dustoff troops deploy one last time
By Rick Scavetta, U.S. Army Garrison Rheinland-Pfalz
LANDSTUHL, Germany – Soldiers from Company C, 1st Battalion, 214th Aviation Regiment, embraced their families and friends before getting on the bus to deploy.
A detachment from the helicopter medical evacuation unit, led by Capt. Michael Chase, will spend the next few months in Kuwait, supporting Operation Enduring Freedom.
During the April 28 departure ceremony, Preslee Kautzmann, a toddler, played with a plush bear dressed in gray Army camouflage like the uniform her father, Chief Warrant Officer Colter Kautzmann, wears when piloting a Black Hawk helicopter. Her mom, Sara Kautzmann, maintained a smile during the ceremony. It was afterward, in the parking lot where families waved to the busload of troops, that emotions surfaced.
“This is deployment number one for us,” Sara Kautzmann said. “It didn’t hit us until we saw him get on the bus and drive away. That’s when it kind of hits you, ‘He’s leaving.’”
When the national anthem played, Justine Aubrey and her three daughters covered their hearts. Raised in an Army family, Aubrey first saw her husband, Sgt. Daniel Bateson, deploy to Afghanistan with the 82nd Airborne Division. Now, he’s leaving for a shorter tour in Kuwait.
“Going through it as a child is completely different dynamic,” Aubrey said. “I have a new found appreciation for what my mom went through.”
Activities offered by U.S. Army Garrison Rheinland-Pfalz’s directorate of Families, Morale Welfare and Recreation help families of deployed Soldiers, Aubrey said. Her daughters recently took part in a spring break camp and are looking forward to summer camps.
“MWR always has amazing opportunities that we’re afforded. I think they even more important overseas because we are so far away from our loved ones,” Aubrey said. “It’s great when you are trying to cope with not having your other parent here. It’s a wonderful, healthy outlet for them.”
Single Soldiers, like Sgt. Charles Milazzo, 27, a crew chief from Denver, have other concerns. When he last deployed, to Afghanistan, a friend fed beer to his cactus.
“The plant is still around. We’ve passed it around the barracks,” Milazzo said. “One of my friends is watching the cactus while I go back out there.”
It’s likely Company C’s last deployment from Landstuhl, as the unit is slated to move to Grafenwöhr in the coming year, said the company commander, Maj. Jesse Delgado.
Army medical evacuation helicopters have flown from the hilltop behind Landstuhl since 1952, Delgado said. Company C’s lineage dates back to 1968 in Vietnam. In 1989, the unit moved to Landstuhl as the 236th Medical Company (Air Ambulance), deploying to Southwest Asia for Operation Desert Storm and Bosnia for Operation Joint Endeavor. They also supported disaster relief operations in Europe. In 2004 and in 2007, the unit served in Iraq. The 236th furled its colors and the unit became Company C, 1-214th Aviation Regiment. Two years ago the unit’s Soldiers deployed to Afghanistan.
“In the European theater, and this side of the world, this unit has been in every major operation,” Delgado said. “This is the culminating event.”

Her mom, Sara Kautzmann, maintained a smile during the ceremony. It was afterward, in the parking lot where families waved to the busload of troops, that emotions surfaced.
“This is deployment number one for us,” Sara Kautzmann said. “It didn’t hit us until we saw him get on the bus and drive away. That’s when it kind of hits you, ‘He’s leaving.’”
When the national anthem played, Justine Aubrey and her three daughters covered their hearts. Raised in an Army family, Aubrey first saw her husband, Sgt. Daniel Bateson, deploy to Afghanistan with the 82nd Airborne Division. Now, he’s leaving for a shorter tour in Kuwait.
“Going through it as a child is completely different dynamic,” Aubrey said. “I have a new found appreciation for what my mom went through.”
Activities offered by U.S. Army Garrison Rheinland-Pfalz’s directorate of Families, Morale Welfare and Recreation help families of deployed Soldiers, Aubrey said. Her daughters recently took part in a spring break camp and are looking forward to summer camps.
“MWR always has amazing opportunities that we’re afforded. I think they even more important overseas because we are so far away from our loved ones,” Aubrey said. “It’s great when you are trying to cope with not having your other parent here. It’s a wonderful, healthy outlet for them.”
Single Soldiers, like Sgt. Charles Milazzo, 27, a crew chief from Denver, have other concerns. When he last deployed, to Afghanistan, a friend fed beer to his cactus.
“The plant is still around. We’ve passed it around the barracks,” Milazzo said. “One of my friends is watching the cactus while I go back out there.”
It’s likely Company C’s last deployment from Landstuhl, as the unit is slated to move to Grafenwöhr in the coming year, said the company commander, Maj. Jesse Delgado.
Army medical evacuation helicopters have flown from the hilltop behind Landstuhl since 1952, Delgado said. Company C’s lineage dates back to 1968 in Vietnam. In 1989, the unit moved to Landstuhl as the 236th Medical Company (Air Ambulance), deploying to Southwest Asia for Operation Desert Storm and Bosnia for Operation Joint Endeavor. They also supported disaster relief operations in Europe. In 2004 and in 2007, the unit served in Iraq. The 236th furled its colors and the unit became Company C, 1-214th Aviation Regiment. Two years ago the unit’s Soldiers deployed to Afghanistan.
“In the European theater, and this side of the world, this unit has been in every major operation,” Delgado said. “This is the culminating event.”

Landstuhl’s Dustoff troops deploy one last time
By Rick Scavetta, U.S. Army Garrison Rheinland-Pfalz
LANDSTUHL, Germany – Soldiers from Company C, 1st Battalion, 214th Aviation Regiment, embraced their families and friends before getting on the bus to deploy.
A detachment from the helicopter medical evacuation unit, led by Capt. Michael Chase, will spend the next few months in Kuwait, supporting Operation Enduring Freedom.
During the April 28 departure ceremony, Preslee Kautzmann, a toddler, played with a plush bear dressed in gray Army camouflage like the uniform her father, Chief Warrant Officer Colter Kautzmann, wears when piloting a Black Hawk helicopter. Her mom, Sara Kautzmann, maintained a smile during the ceremony. It was afterward, in the parking lot where families waved to the busload of troops, that emotions surfaced.

I recently made a similar bear as a custom order for one of my favorite customers and I enjoyed so much making that type of embroidery that I decided to make a new one in this beautiful sea foam/mint felt color.
What I like the most in doing what I do is paring colors together and I really got inspired by the color combos I chose for the two sides of this little plush pillow.
The embroidery style itself was inspired by a research I made with my son on tribal motifs found on totem poles and other artifacts.
I did not make a sketch at all for the design, I just picked the different color thread I wanted to use and started to "free form" embroider each side.
This little plush bear pillow is all hand sewn and made with much love and attention to details.
It measures 11" wide by 7.5" high.

Captain Squat is hand sewn, made from striped fleece, and felt. He stands 4" tall and is 6" wide.
Captain Squat is safe for children of all ages.
NOTE: Captain Squat is made in a smoke-free environment, but pet-friendly, and is kept in a hair-free ziploc bag until shipping.

In the Simpson's Love Day was a Summer holiday made up by Mr. Costington when he wanted to increase Summer sales due to a lack of summer holidays. The holiday was put together to scam people into buying Love-themed toys and gifts for no reason whatsoever. The scam turned out to be a success. Homer was dissapointed to be gifted the wrong lord hugington plush bear, Bart was sceptical about Marges 'kiss and make me boogie' jack o lantern. They family try to cram the leftover crappy toys in the bin leading into the main story of the episode.
