TOP STORY >> O2 experts help crews breathe easier

By Senior Airman Kaylee Clark

19th Airlift Wing Public Affairs

 The most recent group of High-Altitude Airdrop Mission Support students completed their course’s final flight Oct. 21 from Little Rock Air Force Base and to add to the intensity of their mission the final flight is always under a blanket of stars.

HAAMS physiology technicians are required to fly aboard unpressurized missions above 20,000 feet. Their services are vital to aircrews executing at high altitude by combating the effects of altitude threats such as hypoxia, decompression sickness and trapped gases that could affect mission success. 

U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Timothy Stout, 19th Aerospace Medicine Squadron High Altitude Airdrop Mission Support center director, is responsible for training and equipping his team to go out the door and support operations around the globe. 

Although the students flew on four daytime sorties to hone their techniques, this final test under low-light conditions could cause breathless anxiety for the novice. 

“Everything is a little more difficult when you don’t have a whole lot of lighting,” Stout said. “We are visual creatures, so when we don’t have our eyes to give us 100 percent of our information, we have to rely on other things -- a lot of things will be done by feel.”

During these scenarios, the trainees learned to recognize and communicate with jumpers via hand signals to correct issues quickly. This allows jumpmasters to re-inspect them and continue their mission. 

“Once they are on the road, they will probably see more nighttime missions than daytime missions, because that’s the way most of our special operations work; so we have to get used to working in that type of environment,” Stout said.

During previous training missions, there were a large number of jumpers on the aircraft, crowding the cargo area and making it more difficult for the students to move. The events challenge trainees to quickly and correctly assess jumpers’ gear in a busy, cramped workspace. 

There is zero time to waste during special operations missions, said U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Kristopher Meadows, 19th AMDS HAAMS technician. 

“The most difficult part of HAAMS is being able to complete all of the recommended tasks in a time efficient manner,” Meadows said. “The final flight went better than expected. It allowed us to put all of our new-found knowledge and training into action.”

TOP STORY >> Construction update: Bowling alley reracks with new roof

By Airman 1st Class Mercedes Muro

19th Airlift Wing Public Affairs

The Strike Zone Bowling Alley is a place where Airmen, retirees and family members are able to let off some steam, forget about pressing responsibilities or invest in quality family time.

Recently, the bowling alley has undergone some changes to make it even more functional for its family-friendly atmosphere. One of the largest renovations is repairing the leaky roof. 

“The bowling alley is in the process of getting a new roof,” said Kelley Kret, a 19th Force Support Squadron recreational assistant. “New roof panels are going to be installed so water can run down into the gutter instead of staying on the top of the roof.” 

Prior to the renovation, staff members placed tarps in the ceiling tiles and attached hoses to let the water run down into buckets to prevent water from flooding the lanes.  Some leaks over the lanes resulted in the temporary loss of the lane. 

One improvement to the roofing system is the installation of the panels on top of the flat rooftop which are designed to prevent water damage.

“The new roof is supposed to be a little tilted and have a pitch to it,” Kret said. “Whenever it rains again, the water will slide right off instead of it staying on the roof and becoming stagnant.” 

The five-month long construction project has left some of the bowling alley staff hopeful for more foot-traffic.

“I’m hoping people will see the construction and realize the bowling alley is being invested in,” said Susie Rawdon, 19th FSS bowling manager. “I’m expecting it’ll bring out more bowling leagues and more people will want to come and hang out here.” 

For some of the staff members, the bowling alley is more than just a hang-out in need of a renovation. 

“This facility provides an outlet for not just retirees and family members, but also for Airmen and technical school students,” Kret said. “It’s a place where they can go and have a good time without that risk of getting in trouble. I believe we should support our troops in any way that we can and I believe the bowling alley is a place where we can support them.”

TOP STORY >> Odds overcome: Loadmaster instructor beats breast cancer

By Senior Airman Harry Brexel
19th Airlift Wing Public Affairs

Growing up knowing there is a hidden danger lurking outside your door is not a comforting thought as a child, teenager or young adult. For Allison Padgett, being aware of the dangers of breast cancer is something she’s dealt with since she was a young girl.

“My grandmother, aunts and mother all had breast cancer,” said Padgett, a staff sergeant assigned to the 714th Training Squadron as a C-130 loadmaster and instructor. “So there is a clear history of it in my family.”

As a young woman, Padgett made routine visits to the doctor for mammogram tests and biopsies. The tests brought up nothing of urgent concern until mid-2014.

“Doctors told me that precancerous cells may be present, but no clinical diagnosis could be made due to all the scar tissue I had,” Padgett said.

The scar tissue was formed from the multitude of biopsies that Padgett underwent throughout her life.
“I consulted multiple doctors and three different surgeons told me the same thing,” Padgett said. “I could either wait for the prognosis to turn into something more serious or I could have a bilateral mastectomy performed.”

A bilateral mastectomy involves the removal of both breasts. The surgery greatly lowers the risk of developing cancer. For Padgett, it wasn’t a very difficult decision.

“I didn’t want what happened to my mother to happen to me,” Padgett said. “Her cancer progressed and she had to go through radiation and chemotherapy.”

A consummate professional and passionate about being a loadmaster, her career played a huge part in Padgett’s decision to get the mastectomy. Her no nonsense attitude that makes her a good noncommissioned officer has also helped her meet the challenges of beating cancer head on.

“I’m a take-charge flyer,” she said. “I like to be in control and secure my flying career. I could have gotten sick and diagnosed with cancer if I didn’t choose to have surgery. I wouldn’t be able to do my job. It would be soul-crushing to never fly again.”

In August of 2014, Padgett underwent the invasive surgery while stationed to Little Rock Air Force Base, Arkansas. The mastectomy went well but it was the first of many operations. Complications arose during multiple reconstructive surgeries.

Eventually, Padgett bounced back and received a clean bill of health before heading back to instructing loadmaster students.

Those who work and serve with Padgett admire her attitude toward the decision.

“I’ve never met anybody that would willingly give up so much to ensure their flying career or Air Force career,” said Senior Master Sgt. Randall Ransburgh, 714th TRS superintendent. “Her drive and commitment embodies service before self.”

For many people, cancer involves pain, fear or sadness. Padgett used it as a learning opportunity.
“The whole experience taught me a lot,” said Padgett. “I never felt victimized. I was scared but I knew it didn’t have to be dramatic. I was terrified and there were moments of tears, but I’m just not the type to be very emotional.”

Being an advocate for breast cancer awareness is a very important to Padgett.

 “I definitely encourage friends to get a check-up,” she said. “I participate in Race for the Cure and donate to Susan G. Komen when I can. I just appreciate life and people more.”

Now healthy, Padgett is still able to perform her job as an Air Force loadmaster instructor. She contributes to teaching approximately 1,400 students each year from over 40 different countries.

“I fly whenever I get the chance to,” Padgett said. “I love to instruct and I love teaching new students. That’s what it is all about.  I may work with my students in deployed environments and it feels good knowing that I’ve helped teach them what they know. ”
