We live and play in a wonderful part of the world. And in our neighborhoods, there are individuals who serve our towns, communi-ties and country every day, not for the glory or recognition, but because they care: the vet-erans, fi refi ghters, police offi cers, paramedics and so on in our communities. Too often their efforts go unrecognized or we don’t show our appreciation for their sacrifi ce. Sure, from time to time, you will see posts on social media of people thanking one of these individuals for a specifi c event. We felt we should do more for these individuals. As we were chatting about Veterans Day and our story ideas, it became apparent that we wanted to enhance our spot-light on these local individuals in a greater way

than we have in the past.Today, we begin our Tributes Program. For

Veterans Day, in this special Veterans Day sec-tion, The Calvert Recorder is publishing pro-fi le stories and photos of veterans who work, live or have family members in our commu-nity. A portion of sales proceeds from this sec-tion will directly benefi t Battle Buddies, a lo-cal nonprofi t that trains mentors to work with returning military service members to help them assimilate back into their life at home.

We are excited to launch this new program and to do our part to thank these local heroes.

The first time Jack Williams left home for a long period of time, it was for midshipmen’s school in Chicago. He was in college at Washington College in Chestertown when “the Japs bombed Pearl Harbor,” and Wil-liams said he knew right away he’d be wear-ing a military uniform of some kind.

The Navy eventually took him to Omaha Beach, with the task of removing the wound-ed in the aftermath of D-Day June 6, 1944. Williams stayed on the beach for seven weeks, lodging with whatever ships were available at the time.

Some images stick out in his mind from his time on Omaha Beach, but Williams said he’s fortunate the images don’t “bother my mind.”

“The thing that sticks in my memory is on the beach, there were helmets with nothing in them but heads,” Williams said.

Williams didn’t go back on his ship until November.

As he reads about the events that took place on the beach at Normandy, the events through which the 94-year-old lived that are now considered history, sometimes he sees inaccuracies. For example, he said he read a book in which the author had obviously not visited Omaha Beach because the author had a theory of how the events played out that was not possible. The author theorized that the infantry climbed up the rocks of the bank on the beach, but Williams said the bank was 20 to 25 feet high and “there was not a rock in the whole damn bank.”

Originally, troops did get up the bank by putting up cargo nets and climbing up those, but bulldozers eventually knocked the bank down several days after Williams arrived at Omaha Beach so tanks and Jeeps could move further inland.

“I still remember it like it was yesterday when the bank was finally knocked down,” Williams said.

Williams said he especially wants students studying history in school today to recog-nize that war was slower back then than it is

today with technological advances.“The LST was not a speedy vehicle,” Wil-

liams said.Williams has been able to see the last op-

erational tank landing ship, or LST, which he was assigned to. The LST is based in Indiana but makes periodic voyages to other loca-tions, including one to Alexandria, Va., where Williams was able to see it a few years ago.

He even returned to Omaha Beach, 60 years after he first went there. The area changed greatly, with a monument con-structed. Additionally, houses and roads were built close to where many lost their lives.

Williams had a role in the history of a world war, but his family has local historical ties as well. The College of Southern Mary-land in Prince Frederick is located on J.W. Williams Road, a road named after Williams’ grandfather, John Walter Williams. Williams was the third John Williams to be born on the family farm at the end of J.W. Williams Road.

After the war, following more assignments

in France and ending up in Norfolk, Va., to prepare for going to the Pacific, which never happened because of the dropping of the atomic bomb, Williams came back home to Southern Maryland.

“That was home. That was where I was born and raised,” he said.

He went to work for the local farm credit office and eventually worked for the Balti-more Farm Credit Bank and served in offic-es throughout the state. As a board member of the Southern Maryland Electric Coopera-tive as well as the president of the National Association of Electric Cooperatives, he traveled in all 50 states in a motor home with his wife, Marjorie, who was a local school teacher and died in 1998, suffering from po-lio for much of her life.

Williams and Marjorie were among the first people to move to Asbury Solomons in 1996. After the deaths of his second and third wives, Williams remains active in the Asbury community, helping deliver mail, writing for the newsletter, playing poker and helping with a weekly prayer service.

One of the best days in his life for Sgt. Ricky Cox of the Calvert County Sheriff’s Of-fice was being handed the Eagle Globe and Anchor and called a Marine for the first time at bootcamp.

Cox, originally from Hun-tingtown, enlisted in the mili-tary at age 19. He said he al-ways wanted to be in the U.S. Marines since he was small.

“I was just inspired by what the Marines do,” Cox said. “Ever since I was a kid, I wanted to serve my country by joining the Marines.”

Cox was shipped from Bal-timore to South Carolina for his initial training at boot-camp. He found bootcamp challenging because he was young and on his own for

the first time in his life. Cox credited his squad, whom he referred to as his brothers, as the driving force that got him through training. He still communicates with many of them today.

Cox attends squad re-unions and they have met a few times in Florida around the Orlando area. Some of his former comrades live in Florida, so they meet there to enjoy the warm weather and catch up.

Cox served two tours in Iraq during Operation Iraqi Freedom, as one of 50 Ma-rines who were in the FAST Company. This special forces unit was tasked with search and rescue missions, which included building searches. This unit also was respon-sible for raiding buildings in

search of hostages or insur-gents. Cox saw casualties every day while serving in his unit.

His first tour was during the initial phase of the war. Cox’s unit was there from day 1 of the war and was in-structed by former president George W. Bush to secure the oil fields and platforms in the Persian Gulf to en-sure they weren’t set on fire, which Saddam Hussein had done previously.

It was difficult for Cox to communicate with fam-ily during this tour because nothing was established yet in Iraq. He had to find a com-puter or use a satellite phone to get in contact with family back home.

The second tour was in Baghdad, where Cox did

many search and rescue mis-sions. He can still remember rescuing and bringing home a pilot whose aircraft was shot down. Cox was able to communicate with family back home more frequently during this tour because of the increased amount of computers in Iraq. He re-members being able to get to a computer at least once a week.

Cox commonly felt stress from worrying about fam-ily back home and having them worry about him. He referred to the lack of com-munication as the hardest part of serving.

“I didn’t do anything for luck, but I prayed a lot,” Cox said. “I think God got me through a lot of the hard times.”

He was not a fan of the food

that was available during ser-vice. Cox recalled eating a lot of meals ready to eat (MREs) when in the field. When at a base or camp, he was served food he compared to “mess hall food that is just heated up.”

Cox’s unit would play cards or write music for entertain-ment in their downtime. He recalls one of the medics acquiring a guitar to provide the music. They also pulled pranks on each other every day.

“You would wake up and it’d be a scorpion in your boot,” he said. “Doing dumb stuff like that would help us get to the next day.”

Cox was awarded nine medals while serving, in-cluding the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal.

He said serving in the mili-tary taught him the value of life, personal responsibility and how to be a leader. His experience also influenced how he thinks about war because he was able to see things through his own eyes instead of just looking at what is reported by the me-dia.

He is currently a member of the American Legion in Chesapeake Beach. This or-ganization does a lot to help with local veterans, like char-ter fishing trips. Working for Calvert County Sheriff’s Of-fice SWAT team takes up a lot of Cox’s time and he is usually not available to partake in the organization’s activities.

Cox credits the Marines for developing him into the man he is today.

Cpl. James Wahlgren of the Calvert County Sheriff’s Offi ce has been uniformed his entire adult life after enlisting to the U.S. Navy at age of 21.

Wahlgren was born and raised in Nebraska. He said he enlisted in the Navy because he felt he was too immature to stay at the Uni-versity of Nebraska and wanted a way out of the state.

“There really isn’t a whole lot to do [in Ne-braska] unless you want to be a rancher or farmer,” he said. “The Navy was a way out. I had seen enough mud and dirt. I fi gured I hadn’t seen the ocean yet, so I’d go do that.”

Wahlgren did not have any diffi culties com-pleting bootcamp because of his experience doing manual labor on the farm where he grew up. He was also in ROTC at the Univer-sity of Nebraska, so he had some military ex-posure before he attended training.

He said his unit attempted to gel as quickly as possible in bootcamp to get through every-thing easier. The unit still keeps in contact and one of his closest comrades resides in Calvert.

Wahlgren served in Somalia, Bosnia, Koso-vo, Iraq twice and Afghanistan three times.

He particularly remembers operating in the mountains of Afghanistan. The fi rst night he arrived in the country, he recalls making a remark about the cold weather. A man who had been there for a while told them it was only negative 25 degrees, and the wind wasn’t blowing, so it wasn’t bad.

“I remember putting a case of plastic water

He started out as just a farm boy who grew up in Calvert County, but now more than 70 years after enlisting in the U.S. Army Air Corps in 1942, Vernon Garner says he’s more of a military man than a Calvert County farm boy.

Garner was working for the Federal Bureau of Investigations in Philadelphia when a coworker suggested they enlist. Things ended up a bit differently.

“I did. He didn’t,” Garner said.At 19 years old, Garner had to get his

parents’ signatures as permission to en-list. Although many are disqualifi ed dur-ing the fi rst intense year of training to be a pilot, Garner made it through. By the time he fi nished training, World War II in Europe was winding down, but B-29 pilots were needed in the Pacifi c, so after more training, he was assigned to Tinian in the Pacifi c.

Garner said one of his most memorable

experiences was his fi rst combat mission over Tokyo one night in May 1945.

“I was a farm boy … so all I knew was cows and horses and tobacco. There were fi res burning below and it was kind of cra-zy. … My knees turned to jelly,” Garner said, recalling his fi rst combat mission.

While stationed at Tinian, Garner said, he had no idea about the atomic bomb until it was dropped. The bombers who dropped the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki took off from Tinian.

“My reaction was ‘Hallelujah. The war is over and I might get to go home,’” Garner said.

Between serving in three wars — WWII, Korea and Vietnam — Garner did staff work, including being stationed in the Pen-tagon twice and as a staff offi cer in Greece and Germany. Throughout his career, he fl ew 20 different planes. A museum in Dayton, Ohio, has 13 of the 20 planes he

fl ew. Throughout the decades, he met gov-ernment leaders in foreign countries and

four-star generals. He briefed an Iranian Air Force general and briefed the chair of the Senate Armed Services Committee and the House committee when he was stationed at the Pentagon.

Garner said he had some more close calls while fl ying, like when he was fl ying a B-26

in Nevada and got caught in the clouds between mountains and lost visibility.

“I think the farm boy is behind,” Garner said, after 30 years in the military.

But the memories aren’t behind him. Garner speaks to school and church groups about his experi-ences.

“We want them to know what it was like and a little bit of our part in it,” Garner said.

One time, a student during one of his school visits asked how he went to the bathroom while on the 18-hourlong missions.

“No. 2 was a no-no. No. 1, we had a long tube with a funnel,” Garner said.

Some people are surprised to hear that a farm boy fl ew military planes.

“I had an interesting career, but sometimes they don’t believe me when I tell my story,” Garner said.

The saga continued through working during the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis where he worked in an underground command post “with my hand just off the red but-ton in case Cuba decided to do something,” Garner said.

Garner was awarded a Bronze Star for the combination of many things in his decades of service throughout three wars, although he

said he would like to say he jumped off a building or saved someone’s life to earn the award.

Now, after almost 71 years of marriage to his wife, Doris, four children, 12 grandchil-dren and 16 great-grandchildren, Garner and his wife live in Solomons. The two have visited all 50 states and many countries. Garner has a tradition of dancing with each one of his granddaughters on their wed-ding days, and although he said his travel-

ing days are over, he made it to San Antonio in July for the wedding of one of his grand-daughters.

“We couldn’t fi nd a place we lived better than Solomons,” Garner said.

Doris Garner said she wasn’t always per-mitted to know where her husband was and what he was doing, but she said she grew into it and had faith that God would take care of her husband.

“I married him in a uniform,” Doris said.

In a large three-ring bind-er filled with his memora-bilia and documents from his time in the United States Army Air Force during World War II, George Tur-pyn has two Western Union telegrams saved, printed on yellowing sheets of paper.

Messages to his parents in New York upon his re-lease as a prisoner of war in a little-known incident in the foothills of Tibet, the first one reads, “All well and

safe. George Turpyn.”The other one, sent a

short time later: “All well and safe. Love. George Tur-pyn.”

He said he sent two tele-grams to his parents be-cause he forgot to say “love” in the first message. The telegrams were welcome, as his parents originally learned their son was miss-ing in action from a telegram from the Air Force, followed by a letter that more infor-mation would come within three months.

“His mother was a stal-

wart individual. She was not a worrier; at least, she didn’t let people know. … She had faith he was coming back,” said Turpyn’s wife, Connie.

Connie and George were dating at the time of his cap-ture. On Feb. 3, 1945, Tur-pyn was the pilot of a B-24 returning from a mission to the Tonkin Gulf amid storms, mountains, ice, de-pleted oxygen, no naviga-tion aids and multiple pro-peller issues. They landed in 13,000-foot mountains and came across men with rifles whom they thought

were Chinese who attacked. Turpyn and the crew were held ransom for 1,200 Chi-nese silver dollars and would have been held as slaves if their ransom had not been paid by a Chinese warlord.

In 20 degree temperatures and little clothing, they were fed steamed corn and goat meat. For days, their captors “shouted, hauled, pushed and half-carried us up and down the mountains looking for the plane,” according the Turpyn’s story, as printed in a book full of the stories

of veterans at Asbury Solo-mons. The crew was forced at gunpoint to continue the treks up and down the mountains in search of the plane and village children carried baskets containing hand grenades.

“I was horrified at the sto-ry like everyone else was, but was glad he was in good shape,” Connie Turpyn said.

Turpyn still carries a pic-ture of Connie in his wallet, from when she was about 19 or 20, wearing his Air Force coat and jacket and beam-ing brightly, taken the day

he came back home in 1946.“That’s my special pic-

ture,” Turpyn said.Once they were married

in 1946, she traveled to most of his many assignments throughout his military ca-reer with him.

Turpyn said he has never heard such little noise as when he was in the Tibetan wilderness being held cap-tive by Black Lolos, a war-like tribe native to the Ti-betan foothills.

The telegrams George Turpyn sent his parents upon his release as a prisoner in Tibet are in an album full of memorabilia from his time in the military.

“I spent my 21st birthday being held for ransom,” Turpyn said.

Turpyn enlisted in Septem-ber 1942, after graduating from high school in 1939 and working until he got in the service. Originally from New York, Turpyn and his wife have lived at Asbury Solo-mons since 2004 after living in Edgewater for 37 years.

Turpyn knew he didn’t want to be in the infantry, and had a fascination with being a pilot.

“I saw the airplanes and I wanted to fly,” he said.

The military took the Turpyns to California, Ger-many, Ohio, France and Korea, but Connie Turpyn didn’t accompany her hus-band during the year he spent in Korea. They had a young son by then and it was hard to be apart. While the couple lived in Edgewa-ter, George Turpyn com-muted to the Pentagon for 16 years.

“[If you have] any yearn-ings toward travel, the military is the way to go. As long as you don’t have anyone shooting at you, it’s a good life,” Connie Turpyn said.

Freeman Dodsworth of Port Republic entered the U.S. Navy in 1986 when he was 26. The adventure and travel sounded exciting and Dodsworth said he was particularly interested in aviation.

“I had a roommate who went to flight school and was call-ing home and said how interesting and exciting it was,” Dodsworth said.

Dodsworth became a pilot and was primarily stationed on the East Coast, including Florida, Virginia and the Patuxent River Naval Air Station, which originally brought him to the area in 1991. Over the last 30 years, Dodsworth served during multiple wars and conflicts including Opera-tions Desert Shield and Desert Storm.

Dodsworth was also deployed in 2004 to the Middle East for eight months during Operation Iraqi Freedom.

“I was in the war zone, but we didn’t have to shoot,” Dod-sworth said of his time in Kuwait. “We were protecting the corps in Kuwait and also protecting the Marines coming off the ships coming ashore. It was amazing to see all of the coalition military forces coming together in one place, and the logistics and manpower and the sheer effort that went into that conflict was amazing.”

His last deployment was in 2008 to Central America sup-porting Operation Continuing Promise, a humanitarian ef-fort. Dodsworth spent time rebuilding schools and clinics for those who needed help.

Looking back on his military experience, Dodsworth said he remembers the fun he had of flying and being part of “a big organization like the Navy.”

“I also think of the good I think we did,” Dodsworth said. “I’m proud of the service we all gave during those times and I think about the friends I made. … I served during all those conflicts and was deployed during several of them so I feel we did good for the country by standing up and being willing to serve.”

Upon leaving the military, Dodsworth said, he experi-enced the same kind of disorienting feeling many soldiers face with civilians being unable to relate to their experi-ence. However, Dodsworth said his adjustment was not as severe as it is sometimes for others. Because of a strong network of close family and friends who understood where he was coming from, and a life as a business owner that he could return to, Dodsworth said his transition was easier.

“It helped me in the sense that I had a life to come back to while I was over there,” Dodsworth said. “It wasn’t like I had to come back and was thrown into the world without any connections.”

After leaving active duty and joining the Reserves, he was introduced to Al Brewster, founder of Battle Buddies. About six months ago, Dodsworth took the nonprofit’s training to become a mentor for the program and volun-teers with local veterans, helping them reintegrate into so-ciety upon their return from overseas.

“This was an opportunity for me to actually help some-body directly,” Dodsworth said of his reasoning for joining

Battle Buddies. “Many other nonprofits you get involved with, you’re indirectly supporting people. This was a way to one-on-one reach out and physically help a veteran.”

Dodsworth said the ability for veterans to have someone to talk to, someone who has a common background and is willing to “just listen to them and validate their story and make them feel like they’re not alone,” is what he, as a Battle Buddies volunteer, brings to the table.

Dodsworth is currently working with two veterans, and within a few weeks, he said he noticed both make some positive changes.

It wasn’t until recently that one of his veterans began sleeping again.

“When I first met him, he hadn’t slept in a week,” Dod-sworth said. “He couldn’t rest, close his eyes or anything. After a few days of letting him engage with me and him seeing there was somebody out there who was there and listened to him and interacted with him, within a few days, he began to sleep again a little and began to see some mar-ginal improvements in his life. Those small improvements are things he’ll be able to build on to put his life back to-gether.”

But it’s not just those Dodsworth works with who benefit from their interactions.

“Not that I’ve done anything particular to them, but it’s just that I’m a listening ear and being there to support them and let them know that they’re cared about and that has made me feel good and [I] know that at least I’m doing some good,” Dodsworth said.

William Quinn of Drum Point joined the military Sept. 4, 1980, and said if he could, he’d do it all over again.

“I love travel,” Quinn said. “It’s an experience you can’t compare to anything else.”

Born in Jacksonville, Ohio, Quinn lived in Iran when he was 15 when his father was there for work. Growing up, Quinn traveled a lot with his family, and combined with his military travel, he has been to 49 countries and around the world twice.

Quinn followed in his fa-ther’s footsteps and served in the Navy as an aviation elec-trician’s mate, working on na-val ships and doing electrical work on aircraft, and served on five different aircraft car-riers he affectionately calls “boats.”

One of his most memorable moments during his military career was when he was twice a part of the adopted sailor program in Tasmania, Austra-lia, where he was “adopted” by a local family who took him across the country.

“If there was a lottery, I won,” Quinn said of the experi-ence. “I picked Ken Saunders and he was the No. 3 from the top in the police force. So he was a big hauncho. I spent all my time on shore at their house and they took me all over the country.”

He also remembers being part of the hot air balloon team in Albuquerque and fly-ing hundreds of feet above the ground.

“How often does that hap-pen?” Quinn said.

During his time, Quinn said, the now available mentorship program where new enlistees are matched up with someone experienced was not available, but he believes it would have made the process easier for him.

“If that happened in my time frame, I think that would have been a lot better,” Quinn said. “There would have been less harassment of ‘the new guy in town.’”

Quinn also credits the mili-tary for allowing him to obtain a bachelor’s degree in network management from Westwood College in Denver.

Quinn still recalls his mili-tary career as a positive expe-rience despite the life-altering injury he sustained in 1982, when his feet were crushed by a bulldozer. Thinking that he had healed from the incident, Quinn continued his military career into the 1990s and small health issues would ran-domly arise, but nothing that was seen as related to his feet.

Two decades after the inci-dent, Quinn was powerlifting when his feet went dead and he hasn’t been able to feel them since. Because of the length of time between the two incidences, Quinn is not

officially recognized as a dis-abled veteran. He has spent the last 15 years filing claims to the U.S. Department of Vet-erans Affairs.

“No doctor will say the two events are not related for me to get benefits,” Quinn said.

Quinn uses prosthetic in-serts in his shoes, which al-low him to stand for limited amounts of time, but he still has difficulty. Quinn was do-nated a wheelchair and given two batteries for it from Dis-abled American Veterans, and recently had a ramp built outside of his home by Patux-ent Habitat for Humanity and Christmas in April Calvert County Inc. volunteers in Au-gust.

“I want to cry,” Quinn said at the time the ramp was built. “It’s a very emotional experi-ence.”

Today, Quinn has his hands in a number of projects, in-cluding working as a chief election judge for the Repub-lican party in Calvert County, fixing computers, filming “how-to” videos for his You-Tube channel and substitute teaching at Esperanza Middle School in Lexington Park. He and his wife, Donna, have two sons, Joshua, 22, and Kenneth, 20. Quinn also volunteers his time with Christmas in April and the Knights of Columbus.

“If you want to see the world, join the Navy,” Quinn said. “If you want education, join the military.”

Special MilitaryAppreciationfor all Active and

Retired Veterans offering aTRIPLE MILITARY REBATE!

*NOW THROUGH VETERANS DAY,NOVEMBER 11TH

HAPPY VETERANS DAY FROMLEONARDTOWN FORD

There are currently 19.6 million veterans in the Unit-ed States. These hard work-ing men and women have access to a variety of pro-grams and benefi ts through the U.S. Department of Vet-erans Affairs during active duty and retirement — yet many are not taking full ad-vantage. Why?

One reason is that the VA system can be diffi cult to navigate. That’s where the Military Order of the Purple Heart National Service Offi -cers can help. NSOs are ac-credited veteran representa-tives located at VA regional offi ces, medical centers or clinics, and military bases throughout the country. Guidance from these ex-perts can make all the differ-ence for veterans of all ages.

In 2014, National Service Offi cers helped over 19,000 veterans get over 300 mil-lion dollars in lifetime ben-efi ts from the VA.

“My job is to get them [vet-erans] the most compensa-tion I possibly can within the guidelines, but I also want to take care of them,” said Sandra Ripe of the Military Order of the Purple Heart Service Program. “I always encourage them to go to the

VA and get enrolled.”Ripe says a main piece of

her job is making veterans comfortable so they can start talking about their experiences. “We talk and fi gure out what’s going on. Often they don’t think of certain things or don’t real-ize issues they may be hav-ing are combat related, such as tinnitus,” she said.

While veterans can fi le claims on their own, Ripe doesn’t recommend it. NSOs are experts who not only have ongoing training in the legislation, regula-tions and precedents, they have relationships within the veteran community they can leverage.

“If I get a really tough case, I can go to appeals at the VA and ask how to put it in, and they will help me, because wording is very important,” Ripe said.

Her primary goal is to put the fully developed claim in correctly the fi rst time with all the proper documenta-tion and evidence to back it up. If submitted incorrectly and a claim has to go into the appeals system, it can take 2-3 years to be resolved opposed to the 4.5 month av-erage a fi rst-time claim takes

to make its way through the system.

This complex and time-consuming process is why many veterans miss out on important benefi ts. The Military Order of the Purple Heart National Service Pro-gram, which is funded by the Purple Heart Founda-tion, assists all veterans who are trying to navigate pro-grams and obtain benefi ts through the U.S. Depart-

ment of Veteran Affairs. In addition to health and well-ness programs, these ben-efi ts include:

• Compensation and pen-sion

• Veteran’s preference housing

• Education• Employment services• Job training• Death and burial ben-

efi tsAnother function of the

program is the National Ap-peals Offi ce in Washington, D.C., where expert profes-sional representation is provided to veterans whose claims have been denied at the regional offi ce. This pro-gram is one of the few Vet-eran Service Organizations eligible to take selected cas-es to the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims.

This Veterans Day, cel-ebrate the service men and

women in your life by ensur-ing they are getting the ben-efi ts they deserve. NSOs are available to be advisers and confi dants to veterans who struggle to speak openly to friends and family about their time in the service as well as current struggles. They help veterans get the care they need and the ben-efi ts they deserve. For more information, visit www.pur-pleheartfoundation.org.

Veterans: Are you missing out on key benefi ts?


By KAREN TANG CApiTAl NEws sERviCE

The dogs at Warrior Ca-nine Connection are veter-ans’ best friends.

Trained by service mem-bers, a group of the dogs graduated Saturday, Oct. 17, and became permanent four-legged aides to disabled vet-erans or veterans in need.

WCC’s third graduating class of 14 dogs was celebrat-ed at Montgomery College’s Globe Hall in Germantown.

Among those celebrating was Marshall Peters, one of the group’s dog instructors.

A former veteran who served in the Navy for 6½ years as a hospital corpsman, Peters had a hard time tran-sitioning back into civilian life after his deployment in 2009 and 2010 at the Role 3 Multi-National Medical Unit in Kandahar, Afghanistan.

“The dogs were a big part of my recovery,” Peters said.

Working at WCC has changed Peters’ life. He likes to work with other service members and give back to the veterans.

“It’s more than a job,” Pe-ters said. “It’s a calling and another mission to be a part of.”

Warrior Canine Connec-tion is a nonprofit organiza-tion based in Brookeville.

The group breeds golden and Labrador retrievers. Training starts when the puppies are three weeks old. The group’s primary focus is to socialize the dogs with different people and noises so they are used to everyday situations.

The puppies in training are taught commands and a variety of other things that will help a fellow disabled veteran, such as retrieving objects, providing balance, wheelchair pulling, opening and closing doors, and turn-ing lights on and off.

The animal-assisted ther-apy at Warrior Canine Con-nection is a unique form of treatment for current and former service members who have had trouble ad-justing to their daily lives after military service. They are given the opportunity to train service dogs that, once fully trained, go home with fellow veterans.

Training with the dogs helps address a lot of the issues that occur with post-traumatic stress, traumatic brain injury and combat trau-ma, Peters said.

“Being able to train the dog requires that [the veteran is] practicing sounding happy, practicing being assertive and practicing being patient,” said Rick Yount, the organiza-

tion’s executive director.The dogs are trained until

they are 2½ to 3 years old before being assigned to a veteran with a disability, Pe-ters said.

WCC operates at four loca-tions: Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, The National In-trepid Center of Excellence in Bethesda, Fort Belvoir Warrior Transition Battalion in Virginia, and the Depart-ment of Veterans Affairs Medical Center at Menlo Park, Calif.

Working with the dogs can help improve a veteran’s sense of patience and the ability to control his or her emotions, Peters said.

Trainers are encouraged to use positive, high-pitched voices to praise the dogs for doing well, Yount said.

“From what we’ve seen from the past seven years, it’s an amazing opportunity to have a veteran challenge their automatic distorted thought,” Yount said.

Not only are the veterans teaching themselves the world is a safe place, but they also are doing it for the dog, Yount said.

“We are completing [the WCC’s] mission when we see those dogs make huge differences in the veterans,” he said.

Becoming veterans’ best friends

You can “help a hero” take their next career step when you get a haircut at one of the more than 1,400 Sport Clips Haircuts loca-tions across the U.S. now through Veterans Day, Nov. 11.

Sport Clips will share the overall goal of raising $750,000 for the company’s annual fundraising pro-gram, Help A Hero, that provides scholarships to active-duty military and vet-erans. Sport Clips has part-nered with the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States (VFW) since 2007, creating the VFW’s “Sport Clips Help A Hero Scholar-ship” program (www.sport-clips.com/hero) in 2013 to help service members and veterans in the next chapter of their lives.

Each scholarship pro-vides up to $5,000 of assis-tance to qualified individu-als who have served in the military, are in need of fi-nancial assistance, and are pursuing an education at post-secondary institutions, including trade schools.

Donations to Help A Hero will be collected by Sport Clips stylists and other team members in-store and at local fundraising events.

Sport Clips will also hold “The Biggest Haircut Day of the Year” on Veterans Day, when each store will donate $1 from every hair-cut service to the VFW-administered scholarship program.

“Sport Clips and the VFW have awarded almost $1.2 million in Help A Hero scholarships to our nation’s heroes who are going to school to further their ci-vilian careers,” said Sport Clips founder and CEO Gor-don Logan, who is a U.S. Air Force veteran and lifetime member of the VFW. “Their time in the service was a sacrifice we can never re-ally repay, but our gratitude and support through these scholarships is one way we can say ‘thank you.’ We appreciate the Sport Clips team members across the country who work hard ev-ery year to honor our mili-tary. And, we are grateful to

our clients who make dona-tions during their haircut service.”

U.S. Army Soldier Sy-novia Fairell said of her Sport Clips Help A Hero scholarship, “As I transi-tion into the civilian world, it is greatly appreciated to know that my sacrifices for the betterment of our country have not gone un-recognized. Being selected to receive this scholarship has encouraged me to dili-gently strive to complete my goals. Thanks to Sport Clips Haircuts and the Vet-erans of Foreign Wars, my load has just become a bit lighter.”

Sport Clips is the official haircutter of the VFW, and its Help A Hero program is just one of the many ways it supports active-duty mili-tary and veterans. To find out more, visit your local Sport Clips or SportClips.com.

The national anthem is syn-onymous with the United States America, and its notes very well may be the patriotic glue that binds the country together. Although the lyrics and music of the song are widely known, many may be unfamiliar with the rich history behind the be-loved tune.

A poem is born

America began its fight for independence from Great Brit-ain in 1775, and the Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776 to identify the 13 colonies that succeeded in winning their independence from Britain. However, the battles with Brit-ain stretched on. Fights over territories kept disputes be-tween the British Empire and the newly formed United States raging on, and it was during one such fight, and not during the Revolutionary War as some may think, that “The Star Span-gled Banner” was written.

The War of 1812 was declared by the United States to set right some of the issues that were not resolved after the Revolu-tionary War. Francis Scott Key was an American lawyer at the time of this war, negotiating for the release of an American hos-tage being held by the British.

Although Key won the hos-tage’s release, he was not able to leave the British fleet where the negotiations took place until the British completed their attack on Baltimore. Key witnessed the British fiery bombs on Ft. McHenry at Chesapeake Bay.

Just before dawn on the morning of Sept. 14, 1814, Key was said to have noticed a huge American flag still waving above Ft. McHenry in defiance to the British attack. This imag-ery helped inspire the words of a poem that eventually would become the national anthem.

Key penned the poem on the back of a letter he held in his pocket. After the battle was over and Key was released, he

completed the poem at the Indi-an Queen Hotel, where he was staying. The poem was titled, “Defense of Fort M’Henry.” The poem was put to music to fit the popular melody “The Anacreonic Song” by English composer John Stafford Smith.

Key’s brother-in-law, Judge Joseph H. Nicholson, anony-mously made the first printing of the lyrics to the melody, and the song was printed in two newspapers. The song quickly became popular, and soon af-ter, Thomas Carr of the Carr Music Store in Baltimore, Md., published the words and music under a new title, “The Star-Spangled Banner.”

‘The star-spangled Banner’ takes off

“The Star-Spangled Banner” became one of the nation’s most beloved patriotic songs in the 19th century. According to Smithsonian, the song gained special significance during the

Civil War, a time when many Americans turned to music to express their feelings for the flag and the ideals and values it represented. The military used the song for ceremonial purpos-es, requiring it be played at the raising and lowering of the col-ors. But many versions of the song were used during these ceremonies and celebrations.

By the 20th century, President Woodrow Wilson wanted to es-tablish a standard version, so he tasked the United States Bureau of Education to provide an offi-cial version. In response, the Bu-reau of Education enlisted the help of five musicians, including Walter Damrosch, Will Earhart, Arnold J. Gantvoort, Oscar Son-neck and John Philip Sousa, to

agree on an arrangement. This new standardized version was first played on December 5, 1917, at Carnegie Hall.

It wasn’t until March 3, 1931, that “The Star-Spangled Ban-ner” became the official na-tional anthem of the United States when President Herbert Hoover signed this designation into law.

The men and women who defend the liberties and freedoms of the countries they represent hold a spe-cial place in people’s hearts and an eternal spot in their countries’ histories.

Any opportunity is a good time to commemorate the bravery and selfless deeds of military personnel, but certain prominent holidays in November make this an especially important time to thank veterans for their service.

Nov. 11 is Veterans Day in the United States and Re-membrance Day in Canada. It’s also known as Armi-stice Day in other parts of the world. These holidays honor all military veterans who have provided service to their countries, and that each falls on Nov. 11 is no coincidence, as the day commemorates the anni-versary of the end of World War I on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918.

Many places around the world pause and remember fallen veterans on Nov. 11, but a good majority of Vet-erans Day commemorative events focus on past and current veterans who are

still alive. There are many ways to honor the military at home for the November festivities. The following are just a handful of ways to show appreciation for mili-tary men and women.

• When dining out, ask your server if you can pay the tab for a soldier or veter-an you see in the restaurant.

• Attend a military parade with your family and explain the significance of the day to children in attendance.

• Draft letters and send care packages to soldiers currently in service far away from home.

• Ask your company if Veterans Day can be an ob-served holiday at your place of business each year to pay homage to servicemen and women.

• Visit a military memo-rial.

• Petition town officials to erect a memorial if your town does not already have one. Such memorials can be a source of inspiration for your community.

• Support a military fam-ily in your town who may be missing a loved one sta-tioned elsewhere. Make meals, mow the lawn, help with grocery shopping, or

simply provide emotional support.

• Volunteer time at a vet-erans’ hospital. You may be able to read with veterans or engage in other activi-ties.

• Get involved with a mil-itary support charity that can provide much-needed funds to struggling families

or disabled veterans.• Have children speak

with veterans in your fam-ily, including grandparents, uncles and aunts or even their own parents. It can help them gain perspective on the important roles the military plays.

• Ask a veteran to give a commencement speech at

a school or to be the guest of honor at a special func-tion.

• Drive disabled veterans to doctors’ appointments or to run any errands.

• Support a local VFW or-ganization.

• Create a scrapbook for a veteran in your life.

• Cheer for or thank mili-

tary personnel each time you see them.

• Visit the veterans’ por-tion of a nearby cemetery and place poppies or other flowers on the graves.

• Always keep the mili-tary on your mind and nev-er forget those who have served and didn’t return home.

Honor our veterans with acts of kindness, service


The American Legion Randolph Furey Post 170, wishingto thank all Veterans past and present for your

service in defending our nation.

bottles in the hut that I would sleep in that had heat,” Wahlgren said. “When I got up that afternoon, that entire case of water bot-tles was frozen solid. I could have used one of those bottles as a brick.”

Wahlgren saw a lot of combat while serv-ing, and said getting shot at is “not fun.” Wahlgren’s unit did not have any direct casu-alties. The last two times he was in Afghani-stan, he worked out of a large airbase in the mountains and the air ambulance unit was right next to them. Wahlgren said he could tell when the ambulances were transporting someone who was critically injured by the way they would “come in hot.”

He doesn’t believe he has had a bad tour, and said if it wasn’t for the Navy, then he wouldn’t have gotten to see some great places he’s come across around the world.

Staying in touch with family back at home was diffi cult for Wahlgren. The main form of communication when he fi rst joined the military was the Military Auxiliary Radio System, which he compared to a telegraph system. This process was time consuming and messages would take several days to send. There were phone cards available for purchase that would allow up to 10 minutes of conversation. Phone banks could always be found when ships docked.

“What’s known today as snail mail was a common thing back then,” Wahlgren said.

Wahlgren enjoyed the food that was served to him, be it meals ready to eat or food on the ship, which he described as “great.”

He was rarely stressed and did not feel much pressure. He credited the service be-ing all volunteer as a major reason it was not a stressful experience, because everyone typically wants to be there.

“I wasn’t stressed unless someone was shooting at me,” said Wahlgren.

He would play cards and watch movies

in his free time. He also recalled “indoctri-nating” many of his comrades with pranks. Wahlgren enjoyed reading as a pastime and said he read a lot of books in the service.

His most memorable moment was being called and told he was selected to be a chief petty offi cer. He was called about this pro-motion while working at the sheriff’s offi ce. This decision comes down from a seques-tered board and has to get the approval of Congress.

Wahlgren has received countless medals, but the highest ranked medal he has been awarded is the Navy and Marine Corps Com-mendation Medal, which is presented for sustained acts of heroism.

After 25 years of service, Wahlgren is still in the Reserves and currently ranked a se-nior chief. He’s not as involved in direct com-bat roles as he was three years ago.

“When I enlisted, I was a young man with-out any positive direction,” Wahlgren said. “It gave me the positive direction I was looking for.”

Being in the Navy has changed Wahlgren’s perspective on war. He said there should be more veterans in Congress because they can sometimes be hasty in making military deci-sions.

“Sometimes I think maybe Congress can be a little quick to pull the trigger with the military because they haven’t been there,” he said. “If you haven’t been there, sending somebody else’s kid off to war is not as hard as if you’ve been those kids before. We just don’t have as many veterans in Congress as 10 years ago.”

Wahlgren is a member of the Chief Petty Offi cers’ MESS, American Legion and Veter-ans of Foreign Wars, though he said he can’t participate in many local activities because he still travels frequently.

“These guys, I honestly believe, try to be a voice for veterans’ concerns,” Wahlgren said.

Wahlgren has accepted the fact that by the time he retires, he will have been uniformed, in one way or another, his entire adult life.

Baby Boomers make up the largest generation of Americans born in United States history. Boomers include anyone born between the years 1946 and 1964, as the number of births began to rise as World War II veterans returned home from battle. The great-est number of Baby Boomers were born in 1957, when numbers peaked at 4,300,00. That equates to roughly 8 children born per minute throughout the year. By 2019, the last of the Baby Boomers, or those born in 1964, will be eligible for many senior bene-fi ts offered to people age 55 and up. Ten years later, most will be eligible for retirement.

The role of the brave men and women who serve in the military is an important one, and it’s one that warrants appreciation and celebration. The following are a few easy ways to celebrate veterans and their signifi cant contribution to our country this Veterans Day.

• Offer your thanks. Serving in the mili-tary can feel like a thankless job, as those who have not served might not be aware of the risks men and women in the military take and the sacrifi ces they must make to protect our country and help the less for-tunate across the globe. As a result, some-thing as simple as saying “Thank you” to a current service member or military veteran can go a long way. Veterans know they don’t serve in vain, but it’s still a great idea to let them know how much you appreciate their efforts and sacrifi ces.

• Help families of active military. Many service members are currently stationed and serving overseas, and their families back home may need or just appreciate a helping hand. Invite family members of active military over for dinner, offer to do chores like cutting the grass or shoveling the driveway when it snows or help around the house if something needs fi xing. Even if families of active members serving overseas appear to be getting along great, offer your

friendship and let them know you’re there to help should anything arise.

• Visit hospitalized veterans. Unfortunate-ly, many veterans are hospitalized after suf-fering an injury during a tour of duty. These veterans sacrifi ced their physical well-being to protect our way of life, and many spend extended periods of time in the hospital. Vis-iting a hospital to get to know a veteran and spend some time with him or her, sharing a few laughs and thanking them for their ser-vice, is a great way to celebrate the holiday and lift a veteran’s spirits at the same time. Recruit friends and family members to visit hospitalized veterans as well.

• Pay for a veteran’s night out on the town. Like many people, veterans appreciate an escape from the daily grind. Men and wom-en who want to show their appreciation to veterans can treat a veteran to a night out on the town. Have extra tickets to a ballgame or play? Donate them to a local VFW. Or if you see a veteran out on the town, offer to pay for his meal.

• Thank businesses who support veter-ans. Many businesses show their gratitude to veterans by offering them free services on Veterans Day. When a local business shows its appreciation to veterans, patronize that business and let them know you appre-ciate their efforts to help.
