The Department of Defense recently acknowledged Fort Jackson’s youth services programs for having the “highest level of program quality” by reaccrediting the entire installa-tion’s school age programs.

Accreditation of school age programs highlights the professionalism of staff and helps Families know their children will be well-taken care of while parents are at work.

“Accreditation means as a program we have met the most rigorous standards possible in this industry,” said Allison Stephens, a program associate with the Hood Street School Age Center. It means “we operate in the spirit of ex-cellence.”

“This also gives parents piece of mind knowing the school age programs they choose are of the highest quality and the staff are acknowledged for their hard work, dedication and pride,” said Sunny Bolton, the post’s CYS coordinator.

Juanita Jackson, assistant director of the Imboden School Age Center agreed.

The reaccreditation “has helped us with the well-being of our children and parents by helping them feel welcome and comfortable,” she said.

A crash course on how to recognize jamming on communications devices and networks now helps prepare Soldiers for obstacles they may face while deployed or during rotations to combat training centers.

Using “space training kits,” small teams from U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command/Army Forces Strategic Command travel around the Army to locations where home station training is conducted. The kits help Soldiers there learn how to identify when an enemy is interfering with their communications or navigation equipment.

“The biggest problem I’m seeing at the (com-bat training centers), on a macro level, is that units

aren’t able to recognize that they are being GPS jammed,” said Capt. Zeke Clayson, chief of CTC training for the command’s G-3 Training Readi-ness Exercise Division. “They immediately as-sume it’s an equipment issue or an operator issue.”

Failure to realize that some electromagnetic interference may be an actual enemy attack can have major implications for a unit.

“I personally have seen that degrade an entire brigade’s operations,” Clayson said of scenarios at training centers. “These space kits enable the user at the lowest level to recognize when jam-ming is taking place and to prevent that sort of issue from arising.”

Clayson’s division typically works with two training kits. One of them, Space Kit 3, can rep-licate GPS jamming on handheld Defense Ad-

vanced GPS Receivers, also known as DAGRs. The Army provides DAGRs to Soldiers down- ��!��"�� !��while operating in unfamiliar locations.

In a classroom setting, instructors use Space Kit 3 to emit interference that Soldiers can then learn to detect using the DAGR’s built-in analyzer.

After they recognize their devices are being jammed, Soldiers would then report the problem to the rest of their unit. Soldiers can also use the DAGRs to locate the source of the interference.

C5� �� "�� ! ��the staff and commander the opportunity to ei-ther target that jammer or to report the situation to higher (command) and request that higher (com-mand) resolve the issue,” he said.

‘Space kits’ help Soldiers recognize jammingSpc. Carl Arenberg, assigned to the 779th Engineer Company, prepares his Defense Advanced GPS Receiver for a night orienteering course at Camp Buehring, Kuwait in 2014. Using space training kits, small teams from U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command/Army Forces Strategic Command are now providing home station training to help Soldiers recognize when an enemy is interfering with their DAGR device or another piece of communications equipment.

FORT JACKSON SCHEDULES POWER OUTAGES FOR DEC. 21Leader Staff Reports

Fort Jackson will hold a scheduled power outage from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Dec. 21 to perform general preventa-tive maintenance, repairs and inspec-tions. The outage will affect 75 percent of the installation. However, backup generators will power Moncrief Army Health Clinic, the Directorate of Emer-gency Services, post headquarters and the Network Enterprise Center.

“After careful consideration of all op-tions, the Directorate of Public Works proposed this as the date of least im-pact to Fort Jackson operations,” said J. Matthew Shealy, chief of DPW’s en-gineering division. “Since troops are gone during Victory Block Leave, this impacts the Fort Jackson mission the least. Weekends were avoided to de-crease impacts to retail operations like AAFES and the Commissary.”

Motorists are also cautioned to drive ��$��throughout post will be affected.

KKUXY �$�� will be shut down with four scheduled to reopen when power resumes. The Main Exchange is scheduled to open from 2:30 p.m. to 9 p.m., the Exchange Food Court from 2:30 to 8 p.m., the Gate 2 gas station from 2:30 to 11 p.m., and Class Six from 2:30 to 7 p.m. AAFES facilities may open earlier or later depending on the time power will be restored.

Sunny Bolton, Child Youth Services coordinator, said CYS programs will be closed Dec. 21 due to the power out-age. “If you are a single or dual Army service member and require mission related care, please contact Parent Central Services at 751-4865 and pro-vide your unit and commander’s name. Please respond by Dec. 6 if you need care.”

The Leader will release more infor-mation about the power outage as it becomes available.

WORSHIP SCHEDULE

By NICK SPINELLIMedical Department Activity Fort Jackson

When a third grade class at Congaree Elementary School in in Columbia, South Carolina wrote “thank you” letters to a retired service member for Veterans Day, they probably didn’t expect a trio of Soldiers to return their gratitude in person. But that is exactly what happened last week when three Soldiers from Fort Jackson’s Medical Department Activity joined Richard Carr, MEDDAC Logistics Division, in visiting the school.

“A friend of mine’s daughter goes to school there, and I guess when they were looking for a veteran to send a thank you letter to, she told them she knew someone who used to be in the military,” Carr said.

%��#" ��(� �� # ��the students hanging on his wall. He said he wanted to thank the kids, and thought it would be better if he did it in person.

“Initially, after I spoke to the teacher, I was just going to go by myself,” he said. “But then I thought, ‘I don’t have to wear a uniform anymore. Wouldn’t it be better if I brought some active duty Soldiers with me?’”

So on Nov. 29, that’s exactly what Carr did.

The continent is an attractive area for the terror group. Colon-Lopez noted that more than 50 percent of Africa’s population is un-der 24 years old, and many have no viable future. Also, he said, many African countries have weak governments that are unable to ex-tend control into all parts of their nations, and ISIS is drawn to those areas.

AFRICOM is concerned about the spread not only of ISIS, but also of other violent ex-tremist groups, Colon-Lopez said.

Reporters asked U.S. Special Operations Command senior enlisted leader Command Sgt. Maj. Patrick L. McCauley on the pos-sible overuse of special operators in the last 16 years of war. McCauley said the force is at a sustainable level across the globe now, “but

“Right now, we feel like we’re in a pretty good place with that, but again, it’s a con-stantly ongoing process,” he said. “We’re evaluating, divesting of some missions we may or may not be doing, and then moving into other areas.”

Troxell addressed the transnational and transregional aspects, saying nothing can re-ally be limited to one area or region anymore and noting that threats such as ISIS – born in the Middle East – have spilled over to Africa.

“We’ve seen attacks in Europe, but we’ve ��3� �" ��'��D��“So when we talk global integration, it’s key that all of us here work together and from a perspective of by, with and through our part-ners in building partner capacity.”

He said it was a positive experience “just to be able to have a dialogue over four days on what are some of the things and initiatives that we need to be getting more aggressive on, and what methods we need to further utilize to ensure that they have professional forces,” he said.

“Sixteen years of high operational tempo and unstable budgets have caused us to defer some modernization programs that we needed to get after,” he said. “It’s caused us not to be able to get after maintenance programs. And it’s caused some of our service members to use worn-out equipment.”

The military needs a stable budget to ad-dress these issues, he said.

The senior enlisted leaders act as the eyes and ears of the combatant commanders. They are at the side of four-star generals and admi-rals, and they have a voice at the military’s highest levels. And the fact that enlisted ser-vice members have that kind of experience �� ~�� !�'� #�� partner nations, Troxell said.

Moving forward, the Army’s next challenge stems from the ex-� �� #� "�� “alignment of funding, production schedules, weapon and ammuni-tion delivery, and coordinating unit availability and user acceptance from gaining major commands,” Dawson said.

In coordination with other pro-" �� -ance and support of the MCoE, the 101st is laying the foundation for an Army-wide training program that will teach Soldiers how to properly cycle between both weap-ons, while keeping lethality on target, according to Sgt. 1st Class Andrew Flynn, the 101st master gunner.

For Rochelle Parsons, a CYS program assistant at the Imboden School Age Center, accreditation “means validation. We know that we have a job to ��$�� 8�� " ��'�� excelling at what we do.”

Other workers agreed.“Being reaccredited proves what I’ve known all

along – that the caregivers in our program are always going above and beyond, to ensure the safety and well-being of our children,” said Chantee’ Parsons, another Child and Youth Program Assistant at Im-boden SAC.

Lisa Owens, from the Imboden Child Develop-ment Center, found reaccreditation to be “encourag-��D�� #" �� C�� '� 1��'� ��it.” It also showed her the important role in helping “children become productive individuals” was rec-ognized by DOD.

The newer Space Kit 4 can replicate ene-my interference on satellite communications.

While satellite communications receivers don’t have an internal analyzer, he said, Sol-diers can use an external spectrum analyzer to help identify interference.

“Based on the strength and frequencies they are seeing on the spectrum analyzer, they are able to determine whether that inter-ference is deliberate or accidental,” Clayson said.

With just one training kit, instructors are able to train more than 100 Soldiers a day. Soldiers need only about 20 minutes to get up to speed.

In that short time, trainers from SMDC are able to help Soldiers identify when their communications gear has been jammed. That

skill has become increasingly important un-der the Army’s multi-domain battle concept, which envisions dispersed forces operating in contested environments against near-peer threats.

“Right now, near-peers are very advanced in their space domain capabilities,” Clayson said. “These space kits enable us to prevent them from overmatching us.”

Soldiers more familiar on communication issues are already being seen at the National Training Center in Fort Irwin, California, according to Maj. Steven W. Wojdakowski, space operations planner for the center’s op-erations group.

“As we continue to replicate various forms of SATCOM denial each rotation, bri-gade combat teams are becoming more aware that the threat exists,” he said. “Command-ers place more emphasis on communications planning than ever before, but we still have much work to do.”

Some brigades still struggle with exercis-ing their full suite of equipment in response

��"�� >�8-dakowski said that may in part be due to a lack of training on equipment such as the Se-cure Mobile Anti-Jam Reliable Tactical Ter-��!��" �� the tactical satellite.

The Army has enjoyed assured access to the space domain for some time, Wojdakows-ki said, but going forward, threats to space-based assets must be considered as part of operational planning.

"�� #� � �� connectivity by understanding the threat to our systems, targeting threat emitters and sensors, and reducing our footprints in the electromagnetic spectrum,” he said.

The space kits are one way the Army can move in that direction by educating Soldiers on emerging threats.

“Soldiers appreciate the fact they are able to see what jamming looks like to them at their level and that they can do something about it to support the entire brigade’s opera-tions,” Clayson said. “It empowers them.”

“It’s really nice and good that the base is hosting a holiday event where we can cel-ebrate with a large group,” he said.

Three-year-old Isabella was “enjoying” creating holiday artwork and all the other fun things at the event, Rebecca said.

>�� ~�!� �� '�� on the tree lights, Johnson joked about the tree’s size.

“We are proud of our tree,” Johnson said. Even though the post tree was a little smaller than last year, it will “make Charlie Brown proud.”

There is snow and good food and games, but “behold, our Fort Jackson Christmas tree,” he added. “Remember it’s not the ��;��#��"��$��;��#��"��D

The tree was planted a few months ago and if someone “comes back in a few de- �� '�� $�� " �� !� �"-cation of what we want in our Christmas tree,” he said.

While Johnson started out lighthearted in his comments, he became more seri-ous when speaking about what the season means to the Army beginning in Valley Forge up until today.

“Today many of our teammates in uni-form and our Department of Defense civil-ians are forward deployed right now guar-anteeing our pursuit of happiness,” he said. “As you pursue happiness this holiday sea-son don’t forget that there are always those less fortunate and this is absolutely a sea-son of giving.”

Fort Jackson’s holiday season began with the tree lighting and will continue with two holiday concerts by the 282nd Army Band one Friday in Sumter, South Carolina and Dec. 14 at the Koger Center in Colum-bia and culminate in drill sergeants and trainees heading home on Victory Block Leave.

Rebecca Eller, wife of Capt. Mike Eller, a student at the Adjutant Gen-eral School, and her 3-year-old daughter Isabella, hold up artwork the youngster created at an arts and crafts booth at the event.
