Inside this issue:

CPT PEDRO VALDES

DETACHMENT COMMANDER

The Outlaws

have been doing

a lot of things

this month that

deal with prepa-

ration. The Sol-

diers are prepar-

ing for the

change of com-

mand, the up-

coming field ex-

ercise, and their

futures in the

army. The Out-

laws are always

looking to the

future to make

sure they are

squared away

and ready for

what is to come.

Also this month

the Outlaws

were visited by

Branch Manager

MSG Reyes, Is-

rael. He is the

person that slots

all finance Sol-

diers for their

upcoming as-

signments. The

Outlaws learned

the process that

he uses and

what to expect

for future as-

signments as

well as tips for

how to land a

special duty as-

signment. The

Outlaws also

took time to re-

member the

past this month.

The very sad

event that took

place Septem-

ber 11th of

2001 will always

be remembered

in our hearts.

The attack on

the twin towers

is one of the

main reasons

that a lot of our

Soldiers decided

to become Sol-

diers.

1SG Fowler, Kristopher paid Alpha detachment a visit and con-

ducted a class while he was here. The class covered the proper

way to create and submit an NCOER (Non-Commissioned Officer

Evaluation Report). Soldiers of all ranks attended the class to

become familiar with the process, even though it may be a few

years before they actually need to process or be given one.

From start to finish 1SG Fowler covered each detail of the

NCOER and focused on the parts that Soldiers mess up on the

most. During his visit 1SG Fowler also looked over everyone’s

ERB and discussed changes that would be made to the military

education section. He explained how classes taken on-line no

longer qualify as residence courses and will be removed.

DSTS Training

AUG.15- SEP T.15

The Outlaws were privileged enough to visit the Dis-

mounted Solider Training System site twice this month.

The Outlaws always enjoy training at the DSTS because

they get real life tactical training without actually having to

draw weapons and go out into the field. Each Soldier

suited up in the electrical equipment and took part in the

virtual mission. They started off with familiarization and

then moved on to clearing buildings and a compound. The

Outlaws used squad movements to take out the armed en-

emy while keeping the unarmed civilian bystanders safe.

They also conducted another mission in the form of a ruck

march where they encountered the enemy on the road and

had to react to contact. Overall the training was a big suc-

cess.

The picture above shows what the Soldiers

see in their eye pieces. They use their own

bodies, equipment, and weapon to move the

one screen Soldier. If they want the avatar to

take a knee or get in the prone The Soldier

has to physically do this in real life. This sys-

tem is a lot more than modern video games.

Instead of run around and kill everyone the

system actually build scenarios using real life

locations to practice missions. The system

has features that don't exist for commercial

video games. Just like real life you have to

calibrate the weapon to your body and when

you die you avatar disappears instead of be-

ing given multiple lives over and over.

The Outlaws new commander has arrived in Germany. Even though he has not taken over

command of the detachment he is here getting himself adjust to Germany, In-Processing,

and getting lots of info from CPT Valdes and 1LT Park.

On Thursday, September 4th some of the Outlaws went

out to the motorpool. They looked at the inventory of all

the BII (basic issued items). The items are currently

signed for by CPT Valdes but CPT Baker will soon take

over responsibility of the items with the upcoming

change of command. The Outlaws ensured that every

item was were it was suppose to be and check the cur-

rent status of everything. A lot of people may think that

a change of command is pretty simple, but there are a

lot of important details like inventorying items that take

place each time.

As a part of Knight’s Activities the Outlaws con-

ducted an ASU (Army Service Uniform) inspection on

Friday, September 5th. The Outlaws modified and

prepared their uniforms all week so they would be

ready to look professional and show off all of their

awards. They also wanted to make sure that they

would be up to standard because SFC Cliett, Keven

inspected each and every Soldier’s uniform. While

conducting the inspection SFC Cliett also asked the

Soldiers questions covering a wide range of topics,

just like they would experience at the board. For a lot

of Soldiers this was their last ASU inspection as a

part of 106th FMSU and for other Soldiers it was

their very first one.

Getting ready for the field exercise later this month

the Outlaws took inventory of all CIF (Central Issuing

Facility) items for Soldiers E-4 and below. Each Sol-

der brought their clothing record and all of their gear

up to the office and an NCO checked off each and

every item to make sure everything was accounted

for. Some Soldiers had to dig through piles and piles

of items while others still had theirs wrapped in plas-

tic due to recent PCS. At first the Soldiers were a lit-

tle confused trying to find while item matched the

name on the list, but they quickly figured out that

each item had a number and they made the process

much quicker. There were a few items that the Sol-

diers were sent back to search for at home but over-

all the NCO’s got everyone squared away and ready

for the field.
