    Welcome to the New Year and, along with it, our New Year's resolutions. Undoubtedly, most of our New Year's resolutions center on becoming healthier and physically fit. In fact, I have resolved to lose a few pounds myself and improve my fitness score. Quit smoking. Lose weight. Get more exercise.

  • A personal reflection on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

    I remember, as if it were yesterday, 42-years ago, the day I heard the news about Martin Luther King Jr.'s death. I have always been associated with the military, in one facet or another: an "Army Brat," an Air Force wife. In other words a "dependent." Sound familiar? But, what I would like to

  • Make education your goal for the new year

    As we anticipate the upcoming holiday season and all its excitement, you may have had a chance to participate in the base tree lighting ceremony which will took place Dec. 3 at Building 11777. It was an occasion upon which we could spend time with family and friends to welcome this special time of

  • Happy Holidays or Merry Christmas: The "Why" of the term "Holidays"

Some people perceive replacing the term "Christmas" with "Holidays" as an attack on their religious beliefs or a form of

  • A time to give thanks

    November is a time of reflection for most of us.
