New Alaska U.S. Senate Candidate Joe Miller '89

Mon, 30 Aug 2010 21:27:00 GMT

Update: Tuesday night (Aug 31) Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska conceded to Tea Party-backed candidate Joe Miller in the state's Republican Senate primary. More from The Associated Press on Joe Miller's Senate Primary victory. More from the WSJ

Grad Joseph Miller '89: Alaskan Swaps Law Court for the Limelight--FAIRBANKS, Alaska—This time last year, Joe Miller '89 was augmenting his income from his private legal practice by working as a part-time attorney for the borough here, and had to put in for leave to take an elk-hunting trip with two of his sons.

Now, the 43-year-old Mr. Miller stands on the brink of what would be one of this year's biggest political upsets. If his slim lead in last Tuesday's GOP primary holds, he will oust Sen. Lisa Murkowski from a seat she and her father, Frank, have held for 30 years.

Mr. Miller—a graduate of West Point and Yale Law School, a combat veteran and former state and federal magistrate—advocates dismantling some federal agencies, saying many of their functions, such as the federal welfare system, should be handled by states. "The age of the entitlement state is over," he said.

Afghan Facility in Memory of Col. John B. O'Dowd '78

Mon, 30 Aug 2010 20:54:54 GMT

NEW YORK— On August 15, 2010 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Afghanistan Engineer District-North, dedicated its new dining facility to Col. John B. O’Dowd who served as commander from July 2004-2005 and recently passed away in January 2010. His leadership set the course for the thousands of personnel who followed and shared the mission.

"Col. O'D still lives on in our hearts. He was a charismatic, affable, inspiring leader and close friend, and the glue that held us together during 9/11,” said retired civilian Peter Shugert, who served as Col. O’Dowd’s chief of public affairs during his tenure at New York District. “He was a leader among men, and a 4-star General to us who served with him.”

West Point graduate chasing dream of being in NFL

Fri, 27 Aug 2010 15:22:37 GMT

Associated Press -Aug. 27, 2010 - ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) — Detroit Lions linebacker Caleb Campbell '08 says he got emotional two weeks ago when he sang the national anthem in a football uniform for the first time in 32 months.

The West Point graduate says he thought about his classmates protecting the country while he was representing them in the NFL. Campbell will get another chance Saturday night in Detroit against the Cleveland Browns. He has a shot to make the team after enduring a long wait to resume his dream of playing professional football.

Detroit drafted Campbell in 2008 in the seventh round. He was a day away signing his contract when the Army revised a policy and forced him to cease playing football in order to perform "full time traditional military duties," until at least 2010. (Source: AP News / Syracuse.com)

Capt. Scotty Smiley '03 with Doug Crandall '95 Author Book

Tue, 24 Aug 2010 18:05:00 GMT

Just In -- Capt. Scotty Smiley '03 with Doug Crandall '95 have authored a new book, Hope Unseen, The Story of the U.S. Army's First Blind Active-Duty Officer

“Scotty Smiley’s story is one all Americans should hear. It will inspire them in tough times
and help them through some of the difficult challenges they face in life.”
– Senator Bob Dole

Five years ago, Captain Scotty Smiley was on top of the world. A twenty-five year old Army officer, he was strong, fit, and whip-smart, married to a kind and beautiful woman, had graduated from West Point, survived Ranger school, and was shipping out to Iraq to fight for his country. But on April 6, 2005, the six month anniversary of his tour of duty, a suicide bomber set off a car bomb thirty meters from Scotty’s vehicle. Shrapnel penetrated his brain, and two weeks later, Scotty woke up in the Walter Reed Army Medical Center, critically wounded and unable to see.

This tragic event would have defeated many others, but for Captain Scotty Smiley, it was only the beginning. This fall, he shares his remarkable journey of faith, hope and courage with the help of writer Doug Crandall in a new book: HOPE UNSEEN: The Story of the U.S. Army’s First Blind Active-Duty Officer (Howard Books, a division of Simon & Schuster: September 14, 2010: hardcover, $24.99). This inspiring story of an American hero will warm the hearts and capture the imaginations of readers of all kinds.

Astronauts Repair ISS-Doug Wheelock' 83

Tue, 24 Aug 2010 17:14:00 GMT

Two space station astronauts hit pay dirt in orbit Aug 16 after successfully replacing a vital pump to restore their spacecraft's cooling system, which has been limping along at half-power for more than two weeks.

Astronauts Douglas Wheelock '83 and Tracy Caldwell Dyson wired up a bulky ammonia pump the size of a kitchen oven into the right side of the space station during the hours-long spacewalk. It was the third spacewalk for the astronauts to make the tricky repair 220 miles (354 km) above Earth. A fourth spacewalk is planned for later to clean up some final work.

"Game over!" Wheelock said as they wrapped up the pump replacement work. Mission Control used remote commands to start filling the pump with liquid ammonia and plans to start testing it on Tuesday. The crew affectionately call him "Wheels."

Photo caption: NASA astronauts Tracy Caldwell Dyson (left) and Doug Wheelock work to set up the ammonia spare pump module after it was installed on the S1 Truss during an Aug. 16, 2010 spacewalk outside the International Space Station. It was the third spacewalk dedicated to the repair.

Recruiting, Development, and Retention of Cyber Warriors...by Lieutenant Colonel Gregory Conti '89 Academy Professor and Director of West Point's Cyber Security Research Center and Lieutenant Colonel Jen Easterly '90 member of the US Cyber Command Commander's Action Group (CAG).

Make no mistake, our nation faces persistent, widespread and growing threats in cyberspace. Across the array of dangerous actors and their capabilities, we’ve witnessed an evolution from data compromise and loss, to the disruption of information networks to the physical destruction of information systems...The United States Government recognized the clear and present danger posed by this increasingly perilous threat environment and created United States Cyber Command.

We are at a unique cusp in history, as we have the first-ever opportunity to create a large-scale organization to fight and win wars in cyber space. This isn’t a trivial undertaking...

Salisburys Sponsor Interactive Civil War Exhibit

Fri, 20 Aug 2010 14:20:00 GMT

MG and Mrs. Alan Salisbury '58 (USA-Ret.) recently donated $100,000 to sponsor an exhibit with unique ties between the US Army and their family. MG Salisbury, a retired Signal Corps officer, and his wife Florence were interested in supporting the campaign to build The National Museum of the United States Army.

...MG Salisbury’s connections to music and the military date back to his days in The United States Military Academy Glee Club and Mrs. Salisbury has performed with chorale groups throughout her adult life. ...While exploring sponsorship options the Civil War Exhibit resonated with them. This interactive exhibit will feature three Civil War music selections including “Home Sweet Home,” taps and “Battle Hymn of the Republic.” Ultimately, sponsoring the Civil War Exhibit was a perfect match for the Salisburys.

...Using his father’s records and some genealogy research tools, Salisbury traced his way back to Javin Butterfield Salisbury, who was also a Civil War general and a third cousin of Daniel Butterfield.
During the Civil War, MG Daniel Butterfield revised a bugle call specifically for his brigade to signal “lights out.” The bugler played it to signal the troops for the first time in July, 1862.

[Alan] Salisbury also added that the Museum is “long, long, long over due” and that the Washington, DC area location will provide a critical historical link for visitors to the monuments that are related to specific wars such as World War II, Korea, and Vietnam.

Ultimate road trip: Iraq to Mount McKinley

Wed, 18 Aug 2010 14:38:00 GMT

Brian Stoltz, left ...was accepted to West Point and graduated in 2005. The 29-year-old was honorably discharged in May. Mario Cicconetti, also 29, earned a Bronze Star in Iraq and is now attending law school.

Brian and Mario were sharing cigars and watching the sunset over the Diyala Province in Iraq during their 2009 deployment when the idea to climb Mount McKinley hit them. What might seem like a heat-induced fantasy actually made sense. Both were experienced climbers and infantry captains who wanted a swan song to end their Army careers.

They were stationed at Fort Wainwright in Fairbanks, Alaska, where 20,320-foot Mount McKinley - North America's highest peak - looms on the horizon. And they wanted to do more than climb a mountain: They wanted to help fellow soldiers who had not escaped unscathed from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

So they used their climb as a fundraiser for the Wounded Warrior Project. The effort raised thousands of dollars and the sum is still growing through donations at their website, www.sawtoothsoldiers.com.
