Transcript of 1 2013 newsletter

Family and Friends of the Legion,

The Legion has been hard at work

throughout the winter season, and the

extraordinary efforts of your Soldiers have had

tremendous results and have been recognized

across all of US Army Alaska. The battalion’s

reputation for exceeding all established

standards and our disciplined Soldiers and

Leaders ensure that the Legion is the “go to”

Battalion for the toughest missions and our

training events set the standard for others to

follow. I routinely receive comments and

messages commending the performance and

professionalism of your Soldiers from senior

leaders across the installation and the state.

Your Soldiers have seen the harshest weather in America and have displayed incredible toughness by training to

standard through the worst of it. Whether it’s a Situational Training Exercise, Mortar Live Fire, Stryker Qualification, or

performing vehicle and equipment maintenance, the Legionnaires are completing their tasks in temperatures well below zero

and doing it all without hesitation or injury. Their discipline and fortitude, and our commitment to each other, are what

makes the Legion more successful than any other formation I have ever witnessed in action.

While political and strategic decisions are still being discussed across our Nation, the Legion is focused on preparing

for our next deployment. Whether we are bound for Afghanistan or anywhere else our Nation needs us, you can be certain

that the crews, squads, platoons, and companies will be trained and equipped to accomplish any task we are assigned. Recent

budget adjustments will cause us to be more creative and effective in our training plans, but we will have all of the required

resources to remain prepared to deploy in support of any operation.

The sun is shining longer every day, and while it doesn’t always feel like it, the spring break up will soon be here.

The long days and warm weather offer tremendous opportunities in our area for fishing, hiking, boating, and many more

opportunities. I encourage all of you to plan ahead to take advantage of our short, but utterly amazing, summer season. Our

installation MWR and outdoor recreation agencies have a variety of equipment that can be used, but some may require

advanced reservations and training to ensure you can operate it safely. Contact information for these agencies is included in

the newsletter for your use.

I would say that CSM Sims and I could not be more proud of the Legion or of the results of the hard work the

Soldiers, NCOs, and Officers put forth, but we continue to find ourselves in awe of what they can accomplish, regardless of

the mission. These men, your Soldiers, are the reason that everyone understands the need to “Fear The Legion.”

Headquarters & Headquarters Company

Havoc Company Friends and Family,

Since the last FRG newsletter Havoc Company has executed a phenomenal amount of training and equipment fielding in Alaska’s arctic conditions. Through multiple Stryker

draws the company now stands very close to filling our fleet to authorized strength. The men and women of HHC most recently began the daunting task of Battalion Stryker Qualification and Squad Live Fire exercises, these collective training events are being conducted at the Donnelly Training Area and will conclude in middle February. Winter weather tests our equipment and challenges our resolve, but with the outstanding leaders and Soldiers in our company the arctic conditions will be no match for our Legionnaires.

1SG Fischer and I are constantly amazed by the determination and dedication of our Soldiers in this formation. Our training plans from now until midsummer are very aggressive but they are absolutely necessary for our Soldiers and the missions we will be asked to complete. I couldn’t be prouder of our accomplishments and it’s an honor to work side by side with the Soldiers of Havoc Company.

Just a reminder, you can stay current with our Company by checking the HHC 1-24 FRG website and again, thank you for your unwavering support and dedication.

Fear the LEGION,

CPT Jeremy Teter and 1SG Bryan Fischer

HHC Mortar Platoon

The HHC Mortar Platoon has been extremely busy over the past few months and forgone a multitude of changes. First off, I would like to introduce myself as the new Platoon Leader. I am 1LT Patrick Resetar, born and raised in Pennsylvania. I want you to know that your Soldier is my priority over everything else and I will keep him in your arms for as long as I can while still accomplishing the mission. My fellow leadership and I have high expectations of your Soldiers and will try and make them better every day, not only as Soldiers but as men. We have gained many new faces and we welcome their families to HHC and the Mortar Platoon: SSG Cain Schuler (Section Sergeant), SSG Robert Nelson (1st Squad Leader), SSG Chance Thomas (3rd Squad Leader), PV2 Richard Mayberry, PVT Shawn Fowler, PVT Thomas Hart, PVT Nathaniel Emerson, PVT Connor Kapperman. For the past few months the Mortar Platoon has refocused and begun dismounted mortar operations training. We have tied together all Individual Soldier tasks (Individually navigating from one point to another while dismounted, Engaging targets with your assigned individual weapon system, etc.) and have begun to maneuver and operate as a section and platoon. In the month of January we have been moving and training outside even as the thermometer bottoms out. We have been drilling our gun teams and fire directions center (FDC) day in and day out with various missions, in an attempt to make them more agile and lethal during future combat operations. The coming months will be busy for your Mortarmen. They will conduct many training events leading up to live fire missions in March which certifies them on their mortar system. Finally, I would like to thank the families of my Soldiers for all your support and dedication now and in the future.

Havoc Medical Platoon Havoc Medical platoon is focusing on expanding

the skills of the combat medics and increasing medical readiness across the Battalion. SPC Morris and SPC Dunbar are working at the hospital with physical therapy so they can assist in our Battalion rehabilitation physical training. SPC Gitschier, SPC Djinai, PFC Watermeier, and PFC Alday are working with the Fort Wainwright Emergency Medical Services to gain advanced certification for the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians. Several members of the platoon recently went through Table VIII training which is required of medics annually to certify their medical expertise. Congratulations to SPC Manter for being selected as Soldier of the Month for the Battalion. Medical Platoon Sergeant SFC Velasco is serving as the Battalion Sexual Harassment/Assault Response and Prevention (SHARP) Representative. SHARP fights to eliminate sexual assault and harassment in our community and provides support to members of the military and their families. The platoon has fielded all of the Medical Evacuation Vehicles which will allow us support the Battalion during training events at the Fort Wainwright Range Complex and the Donnelly Training Area at Fort Greeley, Alaska.

Havoc Scout Platoon

Havoc Company’s Scout Platoon has continued to tackle a difficult training schedule that included long range marksmanship, team live fire, land navigation, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, and team situational training. All this training has been conducted in a very challenging arctic envi-ronment with temperatures dropping to -40 degrees. In No-vember the Scout Platoon received four Recon Variant Strykers which will be our primary form of transporta-tion on the battlefield. Drivers’ training has been completed for all Scouts and constant maintenance has been conducted to get the vehicles ready for training. The Scout Platoon will maintain a fast pace heading into the New Year with field training exercises, live fire ranges, and individual training. All of us in the platoon would like to congratulate SFC Michael Feldt for making the most recent E-8 list.

Fire Support Platoon

The Fire Support (FIST) platoon has been very active these past few months. The focus for training from October through December was building up the Forward Observers in their basic core competencies and then collec-tive training as a Fire Support Team. The Forward Observ-ers (FOs) received live training in controlling Kiowa Attack Helicopters on 1-4 October. On October 22 through 29, the Platoon conducted the Battalion FIST Certification here on Fort Wainwright. Each Soldier was evaluated on call for fire, occupation of an observation post, fire support skills written test, putting various fire support equipment into operation and a 12 mile ruck march. Since returning from Christmas block leave, the FIST and Mortar Platoons have been working closely in preparation for future live-fire training events. The focus for the training has been occu-pation of respective positions, set up of radio communica-tions, crew drills and ensuring all radio talk is understood across the board. FIST and Mortars are going to be con-ducting a live-fire in March to validate their procedures and crew drills. Everyone in the consolidated Fire Support Pla-toon are working hard each day to ensure they are ready to go back to the line Companies and conduct their jobs to the best of their ability. Thank you for your support of the Fire Support platoon.

Alpha Company Greetings Friends and Family of Ares Company!

After a well-deserved Winter Leave, Ares

Company jumped right back into the game with Stryker-

focused training. The platoons worked hard preparing for

our upcoming field exercises to the Donnelly Training

Area, where we executed Stryker Gunnery and Squad Live

Fires. Before the big field exercise, platoons executed

Stryker Infantry Carrier Variant Situational Training

Exercises followed by a familiarization fire to make sure

Stryker crews were ready for Gunnery. The following week,

the company mobilized to the Donnelly Training Area. We

encountered several challenges while down at the Donnelly

Training Area due to the extreme Arctic conditions.

Despite the time lost on the range, Stryker crews conducted

concurrent training to sharpen their Gunnery skills.

Weather cooperated much better for us during Squad Live

Fires. This was our opportunity to evaluate the Squad

Leaders’ abilities to maneuver their two fire teams as well as

a machine gun team and a Stryker. We were impressed with

all the hard work and improvement that we saw with all the

Soldiers.

We have a lot of announcements to make

regarding promotions, reenlistments, child births, and

pregnancies. We would like to congratulate the following

couples on their new arrivals: SPC Joshua and Britney

Miller, CPL Troy and Briana Curtis, CPL Ryan and Janice

Winkelbauer, PV2 Lyle and Kara Eaton, and PFC Jalan and

Angie Pugh. Finally, 1SG Roberto and Carmen Alomar are

proud grandparents of a healthy grandson. We would also

like to recognize the following Soldiers and their families

who are expecting a baby soon: SFC Christopher and Erika

Nehl, SSG James and Vicky Thomas, SSG Tyler and

Monique Nelson, SPC Raibin and Romy Quiterio, CPL

Harrison and Kim Johnson, and SPC Sergio and Desiree

Perezaraguin. My wife, Susan, and I are also expecting our

first child this summer.

On a more somber note, SGT Juan Pedraza lost

his battle with cancer on 16 January 2013. Juan was one of

our rising leaders in the company when he was suddenly

diagnosed with stomach cancer while he was on his R&R

from Afghanistan last year. He remained with his family in

Raymondville, Texas on hospice care during the majority of

his cancer treatment. After several surgeries and numerous

treatments, he was diagnosed to be terminal with cancer

back in November 2012. SGT Juan Pedraza will forever be

remembered as that great Soldier and leader that can always

make you laugh. Please keep Juan’s family in your thoughts

and prayers as they mourn the loss of this incredible person.

On behalf of the Company Command Team, we

would like to thank everyone for their support over the last

couple of months with our busy training schedule. Our Sol-

diers are working very hard, and we are doing great in every-

thing that we do. We are very proud of the way the company

is shaping and look forward to what the future holds. As al-

ways, feel free to contact us for any questions or concerns

you may have.

Take Care!

1st Platoon

First Platoon returned to duty after a blessed two week block leave. Thankfully everyone had an enjoyable time with their

family and friends. With the New Year we welcome new faces and say goodbye to familiar Soldiers. SSG Gellerman will be

leaving us to serve at Fort Bliss in Texas. We will miss his hardworking attitude and vast mechanical knowledge of our

vehicles.

SPC Slater and his wife Shelby recently had their first child early Tuesday morning (1/15). Kloie Lucille Slater was born at

Fairbanks Memorial Hospital weighing in at 8.4 lbs and 20.5 inches. We welcome their family to First Platoon!

SGT Music recently married his bride, Letticia, in California on January 12. Congratulations to him and his wife!

Our very own Platoon Leader was promoted January 1st to 1st LT by CPT Bergman. As the CO said, “With great power

comes great responsibility.”

B Co 4th Platoon Outlaws

First of all, Happy New Year to all the Outlaw family mem-

bers! As we welcome in the New Year, your beloved soldiers

are preparing for high speed training. Our mortar sections

are preparing for an upcoming live fire exercise while the

tankers are preparing their vehicles for our battalion’s first

vehicle gunnery since our return last year.

Over the course of the next month we will be saying

farewell to SGT Lor. He will be moving to Georgia, closing

his tour in Alaska and beginning a new chapter in his career.

With a departure is always an arrival for the platoon. At the

beginning of January, we welcomed SPC Guest, his wife

Kayli, and their daughter Adelai incoming from Georgia.

With the break in training for the holidays, several

soldiers have attended further training here since our return.

SSG McBean has attended CWLC, while SGT Hobbs and

SPC Guest began their initial arctic training conducting ALIT

one and two.

With the closing of the holiday season, we want to

thank all of our family members for their support of the sol-

diers, both on the home front and their support to the sol-

diers who were unable to travel home. All of your support is

what keeps your sons motivated, helping them to perform to

the best of their ability. OUTLAWS!

Centurion

Families,

As you are all

aware we have

been training

hard for a while

now and we

have been

keeping some

pretty long

hours. The recent changes to the Army’s budget have caused

the Battalion and Company to modify some of the training

plans that we had laid out for the near future and through

Spring and Summer. This will effect some of what we are

doing but I don’t want anyone to worry about this. The

Soldiers will still receive pay and we will still continue to

train and prepare for future operations.

We have had many additions to the C Co team since my last

newsletter. So, in fear of forgetting someone I suffice to say,

welcome to all the new spouses and congratulations to all of

the families who have added a new member to their family

in the recent past. As is always the case with the military we

have added new soldiers to our ranks and had to say

goodbye to a few in the past couple of months. The big

changes I would like to point out are the addition of 2LT

Leroy Foster as the Platoon Leader for 3rd Platoon and 2LT

Jeremy Sheir who will be taking over for 1LT Olsen as he

moves to become the Scout Platoon leader in HHC next

week. SFC Cummings remains in Ranger School and we all

wish him a speedy return with his Ranger Tab in the near

future.

As the winter comes to a close a lot will begin to change.

For those of you who have lived here for a few years you

know that this means break up is coming. For the new

families and spouses in the formation and for the veterans it

is the long awaited end to the Alaska winter. This being said

as it warms up it is still paramount to ensure that everyone is

being safe with the cold; frostbite and hypothermia are still a

big issue as the temperatures will remain below freezing for a

while. The roads will be increasingly dangerous as the

temperatures rise and fall as spring comes so please continue

to be safe.
