�Those who cannot remember the pastare doomed to repeat it,� philosopherGeorge Santayana told the world in 1905.

Today we find ourselves at a possibleturning point in history. Opponents ofmilitary action against Iraq have utteredstatements to the effect that a war againstIraq will start another world war.

So let us go to history and see whathappened or, better yet, what didn�t hap-pen before World War II. Hitler had takenover Germany in 1933 and proceeded tore-arm, violating the Versailles Treatythat ended World War I.

France and Great Britain did nothing.Germany in March of 1936 re-occupiedthe Rhineland with 20,000 troops.

This was the German territory on theWest Bank of the Rhine River serving asa buffer zone between France and Ger-many. Once again France and GreatBritain did nothing and allowed Germantroops to move in unopposed. This wasanother violation of the Versailles Treatyand a direct threat to the security ofFrance.

The masses in Europe wanted peace atany cost and thought any provocation of

Hitler would lead to war, but in hindsight,looking the other way led to war.

France was much stronger than Ger-many at the time, and joined by GreatBritain�s might, could have easily calledHitler�s bluff and squashed his militaryadventure. The union with Austria and theoccupation of the Sudetenland and therest of Czechoslovakia would only be twoyears away.

Germany was much stronger militarilyby then and even more powerful afterdigesting the Czech industrial and armsindustry.

Hitler then signed a non-aggressionpact with another ruthless dictator, Stalin,in 1939. This allowed the former corporalto invade Poland without fear of the Sovi-ets. This was the final straw for the ap-peasers in the west.

France and Great Britain declared waron Germany, but hesitated for six monthsand refused to attack in the west.

Hitler thanked the French and Britishfor being so considerate by defeatingthem in a six-week campaign in 1940.

Hitler then rewarded Stalin the followingyear by invading the Soviet Union andadding tens of millions more to thebutcher�s bill for the war.

Now we are faced with another dictatoror two, Saddam Hussein in Iraq and KimJung II, in North Korea.

Saddam has invaded two of his neigh-

bors, broken treaties and continues toevade sanctions against weapons of massdestruction. Yet peace demonstratorsfear a war will bring greater conflict, whileforgetting the lessons of the appease-ment of Hitler.

Yes, there are differences betweenSaddam and Hitler. Saddam is bigger andhas a better mustache.

Does any rational person really be-lieve Saddam Hussein would not use anuclear bomb if he had one, or that hewould not continue to cause havoc withhis neighbors and brutalize his ownpeople?

But it is America that�s chastised asbeing a warmonger, only hungry for oil.We must continue to be strong and dowhat is right in Iraq, no matter how un-popular it may be in the court of Europeanpublic opinion.

It is time the tyrant is disposed.That brings us to the other megaloma-

niac making news today in North Korea.Kim presides over an even more repres-sive regime than Saddam.

The younger generation that grew uphealthy and prosperous in South Koreablames the United States for the rise intensions, forgetting the sacrifice made bytheir elders and so many Americans torepel the communists and keep them atbay for over half a century.

Some forget or ignore the bloody past.That is why we as Americans must neverforget.

We must never forget the lessons his-tory provides about how to deal with suchdictators. And we must never forget to dothe right thing.

Parents asked for a more rigorousproposal in the high school lan-guage arts curriculum, sending theplan back for modifications, at theKwajalein School Advisory Councilmeeting Wednesday night.

Parents want language artsclasses grouped by ability ratherthan grade level with progressionleading towards AP English, saidAnn Cohen, SAC MIT/LL represen-tative.

The requested changes in thecurriculum may mean a delay inimplementing the plan this falldespite offers from some of theparents present at the meeting tohelp with the modifications to speedup the process.

“I would rather delay severalmonths and get it right,” saidKaren Ammann, school superinten-dent. “If we have to wait until thefall, we will. We might not want toimplement a new plan next fall.”

The high school language artscurriculum will go back to commit-tee on March 28

The elementary school languagearts curriculum for the 2003-2004school year will be brought to theSAC for the first reading in April.Staffing

Six new teachers are hired for the2003-2004 school year and KRS isstill looking for others, Ammannsaid.

A high school science teacherwith extensive marine scienceexperience will be joined by aspecial education teacher, an En-glish as Second Language teacher, ayouth activities director and twoelementary school teachers, shesaid.

The school system still needsEnglish and Social Studies teachersas well as early childhood educationspecialists for the upcoming schoolyear, Ammann said.

Substitute teachers are neededimmediately, she added.Vision, mission and philosophy

Emphasis on creating studentswho are life-long learners, effectiveproblem solvers, responsible citi-zens and caring contributors withthe help and support of the entirecommunity is part of the schoolsystem’s vision, mission and phi-losophy statement, read for thefirst time at the SAC meeting. Aftera second reading next month, thecouncil will vote on adopting thestatement. Final adoption, however,rests with the commander.

Copies of the statement areavailable in the school offices.

the first radar remoted to KMCC in October 2000,followed by MMW in 2001, ALTAIR in June 2002, andTRADEX in February 2003.

The project upgraded optics and moved telemetryassets from outer islands to Roi-Namur and Kwaja-lein, bringing four fixed antennas to Roi-Namur, threefixed antennas to Kwajalein’s Mount Olympus, orwhat is now known as Telemetry Hill.

“This is open architecture done the way it’s sup-posed to be done,” Johnson said. The key to making itwork is keeping up with what we call COTS, or com-mercial-off-the-shelf, technology. When technologychanges, you can go in and change certain compo-nents.”

It’s been compared to a home entertainment system.Rather than invest heavily in a single system, KMARallows the range to replace single components thesame as one might replace a VCR with a new DVD,knowing the new player will still work with the exist-ing audio system and television. Because componentsare somewhat interchangeable and commerciallyavailable, spare parts are as close as the radar nextdoor, or at least available for order.

Of course range components are more involved and farmore expensive, but the concept is the same, Johnsonsaid.

“We took a computer system approach to building aradar, as opposed to a hardware custom design thathas been used historically,” Szczepanski said. “It wasa fundamentally new way to design a radar.”

Using the open architecture for hardware, engi-neers used similar “object-oriented software prac-tices,” that provide the range sensors with “muchmore flexibility,” Szczepanski said.

“We can modify our open systems more easily whichputs us in a very good position to satisfy our customerrequirements,” he said.

With KMAR upgrades, engineers use the same dataformat for each radar and the same off-the-shelf toolsto analyze the data, regardless of the source. Displayscreens will offer engineers point-and-click ease as

“Anyone planning travel to the riskareas should keep updated with CDCand WHO [World Health Organiza-tion] reports and be prepared to altertravel if recommended,” Janikowskisaid. “If people have recently trav-eled to risk areas, watch for symp-toms and be sure to inform theirdoctor of the travel if they need toseek medical treatment for any ill-ness.”

SARS is not spreading as rapidly asother viral infections such as the flu,

although there have been almost 15deaths, he said.

The factors which indicate an ill-ness is SARS include a fever of over100.4 degrees and signs of respira-tory illness — shortness of breath orrespiratory distress — showing upwithin seven days of travel to the atrisk areas. The fever and respiratorydistress can be accompanied withother symptoms, including headache,loss of appetite and diarrhea.

Even if no personal travel is in-volved, the CDC Web site warns thatclose personal contact with body se-cretions of someone with recent res-piratory distress and fever may put

one at risk for SARS.“Hence, the majority of the cases are

health care workers and family mem-bers,” Janikowski said.

The jury is still out on the closecontact connection, because WHO hasjust tracked what they think are seveninitial cases to a specific hotel in HongKong, Janikowski said.

Although two of the people involveddid have close contact, according to theWHO report, the connection of theother five is still tenuous.”If a person hasn’t traveled to the riskareas or had close contact with some-one who has, there appears to be noneed for worry at present,” he added.

War, terrorismand violence maystress children

By KW HillisAssociate Editor

All children, even toddlers, canreact stressfully to violent worldevents.

Children pick up on theirparents’ feelings about war andviolence, said Marion Ruffing,psychologist. “If they don’t knowwhy their parents are anxious orpreoccupied, they may think it istheir fault. Children tend topersonalize situations and mayworry about a relative in themilitary.

Stressful children can actdifferently in school than they doat home and it’s a good idea forparents to be in touch with theschool, she said.

If unusual and or negativechanges suddenly develop and lastin any of the 2 ½ - to 5-year-oldchildren at the Kwajalein ChildDevelopment Center, then theparent is contacted, said TrinaTiffany, KCDC director.

Parents can help dispel theirchildren’s stress by talking tothem in terms of fears, gearingtheir conversations to the age ofthe child, she said. Toddlers needa lot of reassurance and olderchildren need to talk about theirfears. All children need calmparents and a predictable dailyschedule.

“Talking about violent acts ofwar and terrorism won’t increase achild’s fear if it is done in a healthyway,” Ruffing said. “Parents canuse the opportunity to teachchildren about tolerance … aboutnot stereotyping a group of peopleor a country.”

Watching TV news as a familycan give parents an opening to talkabout violence and war with theirchildren, she said. But be sure tobe realistic when talking withchildren.

“Parents do want to be reassur-ing to the child, but they should becareful about making unrealisticpromises,” Ruffing said. “Parentsshouldn’t promise their childrenthat no one is going to get hurt.”

particularly, within the Pan-Pacifictest bed, currently under develop-ment by the Missile Defense Agencyand tying together Kwajalein,Vandenberg Air Force Base in Califor-nia, Pacific Missile Range Facility inKauai, and bases in Alaska.

In fact, RTS members of a Pacificrange support team are meeting withMissile Defense Agency officials inWashington D.C. this week on

standardization, among other issues,and “this effort definitely has applica-bility. Other programs are looking atthe KMAR effort here,” Szczepanskisaid, adding that when engineersdesigned the program for Kwajalein,“we hoped it would have broadapplications.

“We’re still probably not realizingthe full potential,” he said. “Butthese are good signs from thebeginning.”

(From page 4)

Software program may have unrealizedapplications and potential ...

“Supervisors and directors should bedoing the same thing,” he said. “If theyare not [stopping people] and it is one oftheir people, I will go to that director orsupervisor and ask them why.”

Rules for children less than 17 yearsold remain the same, he said. Those 13to 17 years of age do not need to weara badge, but they are required to haveit with them. Children under 12 yearsof age are not issued badges.

Everyone in the community, no mat-ter who they work for, needs to wear abadge, said Steve Morris, KRS Secu-rity Manager.

“If we don’t have everybody comply,it defeats the whole purpose,” he said.“The purpose is to identify people whoare out of place in our community.”

Increased individual surveillance ofsurroundings is also required, Morrissaid. Everyone needs to make surevehicles are parked away from build-ings and be aware of and report suspi-cious packages

If a suspicious package is discovered,it should not be touched, but be re-ported to Kwajalein Police Department,indicating time, location and any perti-nent observations, he added.

Besides the increased emphasis onawareness, two other key areas —building access and island access pro-grams — directly and visibly affect thecommunity if the FPCON level in-creases, he said. Access to all retailfacilities, mission essential vulnerableareas or MEVAs, and high risk targetsor HRTs, are reduced to one point ofentry.

“The point of entry will be manned byindividuals who run the facility,” hesaid.

A Building Force Protection man-

ager is assigned to each building onisland and is responsible for buildingsecurity including restricting entry andbriefing co-workers about securitymeasures, Morris said.

Heightened FPCON levels will re-strict Marshallese access to USAKA,said Maj. Brett Barraclough, USAKAPlans, Training and Security director.

“Some access programs we have rightnow would be suspended duringCharlie, and all would be suspended atDelta,” Harmon said. “Only C and Dbadge holders would be allowed to comeon island.”

Information affecting the Marshallesecommunity and badged workers will beavailable through the Hourglass, Kwa-jalein-AFN radio and television andthe RMI Liaison office and ombudsmanas quickly as possible, he said.

USAKA does have some leeway onhow FPCON measures are imple-mented, since the Department of De-fense measures are guidelines.

“We will use a common sense ap-proach,” Barraclough said. “We willtake a look at the actions we need totake to make a secure community …to protect and maintain quality oflife.”Supplies

Residents should not be concernedabout the war’s effect on the localsupply link, according to MarkVerStraten, USAKA Logistics Manage-ment specialist.

“As it stands right now, I see noeffect with the barge and with the AMCflights,” he said. “If regular AMC flightsare diverted for higher priorities, AMCcan access other assets to fill the gap.”

“Twelve years ago C-130s were usedwhen some of our regularly scheduledservice was disrupted,” he added.

From Army News ServiceWASHINGTON — A broken part

and a piece of debris on the trackruined what started out as a good racefor the Army and National Guard Win-ston Cup racing teams March 16 inDarlington, S.C.

Jerry Nadeau, driving U.S. ArmyNo. 1, and Todd Bodine, driving Na-tional Guard No. 54, both did well inqualifying for the Carolina Dodge Deal-ers 400 at Darlington Raceway, butboth had disappointing finishes.

Nadeau qualified third and was con-sistently one of the front-runners inthe early stages of the race. Thatchanged suddenly when the Army carstarted smoking, forcing Nadeau tomake a pit stop.

The U.S. Army pit crew quickly de-termined that the problem was a bro-ken oil pressure fitting, stated Nadeau’sofficial Web site. The part only costs$10, but the repairs cost the team time,eight laps worth of time.

“That put us out of the race,” saidNadeau. “It was really unfortunatebecause we had one great racecar thisweekend.”

The U.S. Army team ended the race

in 35th place out of 43.Bodine, driving the National Guard

car, qualified 10th for the race. Thiswas his career best start, according toBodine’s official Web site. Unfortu-nately, he was only able to finish 22 ofthe race’s 293 laps.

In turn four of the 23rd lap, Bodinecrashed after running over a piece ofdebris and flattening his front-righttire, stated Bodine’s Web site. TheNational Guard car was so badly dam-aged it could not continue the race andended up in last place.

“It’s just racing,” Bodine said. “It’s ashame because we were coming offsuch a good qualifying run here and wewere looking to back it up with a simi-lar end result.”

Ricky Craven won the race, beatingKurt Busch by two-thousandths of asecond.

The U.S. Army car and the NationalGuard car are entered in the nextWinston Cup race, the Food City 500 atthe Bristol Motor Speedway, Bristol,Tenn., March 23.

Debris, $10 part, slows military cars

By Kim ParkerGuest Writer

Forget March Madness sports fans,the Kwajalein Softball World Series isunderway and it’s in your own back-yard.

The battle for the Men’s A divisionchampionship began last night withthe Podunkers easily defeating theCriminals 7-0 in the first of the best ofthree series.

“The teams are very well matchedup,” said Scott Pratt, Adult Athleticssuperintendent, who also empired thegame.

“The Podunkers [bring] to the plate alot of World Series experience,” alongwith the confidence that comes withsuccess, he said.

“The Criminals have always been to

the show,” Pratt said, referring to theteam’s previous presence in divisionplayoffs.

“But (so far) they have failed to showtheir A game,” he said, explaining thatthe Criminals have never defeated thePodunkers in post-season play.

“It will be a battle to the end,” hesaid. “It should be a great series towatch.”

Tarlang claimed the Men’s GammaDivision championship last week witha 12-1 victory over Da Bomb.

Though Tarlang dominated theleague all season with a record of 9-1,it was Da Bomb who drew first blood inpostseason play. The loss was a wake-up call for Tarlang, who regroupedand easily won the next two games tosecure the title.
