Ch. Linda Olson
Here's my bit of news - I'm not retiring (from active duty). At literally the last hours before I was to sign my papers and leave, we got orders to Travis AFB, CA, just down the road. It's the only place Mickey and I wanted to go, the orders really should not have come but they did. So Mickey asked me to stay in by saying, "Can you do 2 more?" So off we go to Travis with a new lease on life, empowered by God to keep working.
You know, I'm 59 (grandmother of 2 now) and never thought I'd be in this long, never wanted to go beyond Major (I've succeeded with that and likely won't try to recover and get Lt Col - I'm going to work on a degree in Marriage and Family Therapy) but now I feel renewed and "re-blued" to work a little longer to age 61 or 62, then I have to go.
I'd appreciate prayers for Mickey's health - I'd like to see a miracle healing for his lungs so if any sisters have the faith for that please join me in my prayer! Blessings & Peace, Linda
From Ch Crystal Jones: Blessings to you…As you may have heard, I left active duty after my nine months in USAFE in 2007 (Incirlik) and am enjoying life as IMA to the Senior Protestant Chaplain attached at Andrews AFB, MD...about 10 miles from our home. Although the switch was bitter sweet and the transition is tough, I am enjoying the wonderful time that I now have to learn how to be a wife, mother, and intercessor. Who knew that prayer and housekeeping went so well together :-0! Here’s a picture of me and my girls in summer uniform :0)
From Ch Cassandra Thomas, retired: Two years after deploying to Afghanistan and providing ministry in a Canadian military friendly fire incident and one year after retiring, I found myself in Canada for a military court martial. There’s a long story behind the USAF legal and chaplain service guidance that “encouraged” me to go. But I trusted in God that there was a reason I had to go…there was. This is my recent email to Ch, Col XXXX (who was my command chaplain in 2007) on the results of the court martial and my thoughts on the situation...
Sir, I was not surprised at the (guilty) verdict. It was a tragic accident that needed closure for all involved.
You know that I didn't want to go for chance of being asked a question related to privileged communication. However, I went leaving it all in God's hands. Once I got there I understood why God meant for me to be there...it was to help encourage the chaplain assistants who assisted me with the defendant right after the incident occurred. My NCOIC at the time, TSgt James Hayes, was there and helped but his testimony wasn't as difficult as the other chaplain assistant, Sgt James (Jim) Bearup, US Army, who was the main one that coordinated bringing the defendant to me for pastoral care. The prosecutor harped on statements that Bearup had later retracted per the defense attorney's direction about things said to the defendant that were considered privileged communication per chaplain service instructions. They called Bearup in early and interviewed him daily trying to wear him down. When I arrived at my hotel in Sydney Nova Scotia, I happened to meet up with James and Jim and based upon what they shared with me, I knew I was there to encourage them and support them as chaplain assistants with protection of our chaplain service instructions of privileged communication coverage for them when acting in conjunction with their duties supporting a chaplain. It made the trip worthwhile and taught me a lesson...it's not just about chaplains called to trials/court martials; it's about protecting and supporting our chaplain assistants too. Courts understand clearly about a chaplain's protection of privileged communication but not chaplain assistants. This especially applies regarding NATO military whose chaplains (padres) do not have assistants provided to them as a separate and distinct career field. I'm glad I could support our enlisted-USAF and USA-during such a circumstance as this and would gladly do it again.
P.S. Oh, the prosecutor did try to get me to reveal information said during privileged communication with the defendant, but the judge sustained that and supported me. :0) Sincerely, Sandy

Keeping the Connection
Ch, Maj Gen Lorraine K. Potter: a big THANK YOU to all who supported Rocky and I with prayers, emails and cards at the death of our daughter, Lynda Barkley (died on Good Friday and buried on Easter at 49 years of age) and my mother, Frances Fallon (died on Memorial Day at age 95).
From Ch Sarah Tarpley: I would like to ask for your prayers. I was in the hospital for a week with a bad infection and kidney stone and underwent surgery to put in a stent, which I still have. The infection is under control now and I'm continuing to regain my strength slowly. On Sep 3, I will go back to surgery for the Dr to remove the kidney stone. It will be a day surgery, but still invasive nonetheless. Again, I would appreciate your prayers for the upcoming surgery and for my recovery. Complete recovery will take some time, but I put my hope and trust in God. I've never gotten this sick before, never stayed overnight at the hospital, and never had surgery or a procedure done. I really do appreciate your prayers. Thanks. Sarah
From Ch Rhonda Cushman: Our son, Mike, has been very ill since late June, twice in the hospital, but now home receiving IV antibiotics and follow-up care with Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia. We expect him to make a full recovery, but it has been and will be slow and will continue to require much patience, diligence and determination. Prayers for Mike and Mom and Dad are much appreciated. …. I will be starting a CPE unit part time at Jefferson Hospital right after Labor Day….assuming Mike’s recovery stays on track.
From Ch Josephine Pinkney: Ch Regina Samuel and Ch Eusebia Rios are now deployed.
From Ch Laura Adelia: she was bumped from a flight and will not be home until 4 or 5 Sept.
From Ch Elaine Henderson: My temporary full-time job at my base comes to an end 30 Sep 2009. It has been a great 19 months -- offering retreats, workshops and counseling to the members of the 178 FW and the state of Ohio as the full-time Air presence. I have also enjoyed offering workshops to our Army brothers, sisters and their families around the nation at my commander’s expense. I was able to offer the first pre-deployment workshop to Army medics,
Chaplains and Chaplain Assistants in May 2009. Hope to continue to track the long-term benefit of “Getting Rid Of Wrocks” during their 12 month deployment.

Commentary by Ch Jackie Ann Rose Kraft, 107 AW Niagara Falls, NY
Through my experience this past spring, I learned first-hand that we are never alone on an island serving and doing ministry in a vacuum. Thank God for the powerful connection of the Air Force Women Chaplains. Through “the connection,” we are all just a one word prayer of, “help” and a “send” button away. Reading from, The Message, scripture says, “Absolutely everything, ranging from small to large, as you make it a part of your believing prayer, gets included as you lay hold of God." The connection of the women chaplains were part of my “believing prayer” and you all came through helping me to “lay hold of God” to His glory. Because of our connection, a female chaplain’s assistant and myself were able to tell the uplifting stories of women serving in the military, helping those serving us, to better understand our needs and the needs of our families.
I was asked to help lead a presentation with a female chaplain’s assistant from the Army Guard. I wrote asking you all on 19 May for your thoughts of the issues that women in the military face, for our topic addressed: “Women in the Military.” E-mails began “pouring in” as you all gently guided and uplifted me with your own stories and with resources to check out.
On 11-12 June, Chaplain Assistant NCOIC Staff Sergeant Linda R. Nosbisch, who recently returned from deployment to Afghanistan as a part of Combined Joint Task Force Phoenix VII, and I presented at the Veterans Roundtable on Grand Island, NY for the Institute for Professional Development in the Addiction. Our presentation about “Women in the Military” went very well and was very much appreciated. We showed powerpoint pictures of women in the military and talked about our experiences and those of other women in the military around us who touched our lives in their service to our country. It was all very positive and when the presentation was completed, people left appreciating the leadership and professionalism of women serving our country and the great value and need for all our military.
I write, this article, not only to thank each one of you who responded to my prayer of “help,” but to encourage others to seek out our connection. How uplifting, helpful, positive and encouraging is our connection. In the beginning I was “timid” to ask especially thinking about those of you with much rank and experience. I will never think twice again about reaching out. You were a big help and the ministry of presence to this chaplain in the Air National Guard. May we all continue to be part of what God is blessing through and among us. I love and appreciate each one of you.
Serving With You,
JK
