These mentor-student rela-tionships were unique from the be-ginning. The teams were not justmeeting to spend time together;

they were also working on threeprojects that were due by the end ofthe school year.

Students completed three proj-ects which were designed to flextheir Microsoft Office product mus-cles. Students wrote a biography us-ing Word, developed a real-worldbudget using Excel, and then creat-ed a formal presentation of theirwork using PowerPoint to present toACE-E board members and trustees.

The evening began with the beatof a drum and whirls of bright colorswhile the Leckie African Dancersgroup performed on stage. The au-dience burst into applause andsmiles following their performance.

Undersecretary of Defense forPersonnel and Readiness, Erin C.Conaton, was the first, but not thelast to take the stage to give herthanks and congratulations to all ofthe participants in the program.

Conaton recalled memories ofone of her first mentors, anotherwoman named Erin, while workingas an intern at the U.S. Missions ofthe United Nations. She said thatworking alongside her mentor ori-ented her toward a career in publicservice, and helped shape her intothe person she is today.

Conaton donated her time andservices to ACE-E by mentoringVinecia Perkins, a 2012 McKinley

High School graduate, who receivedfull-ride scholarships to bothLafayette College and Harvard Uni-versity.

"This program has been so won-derful," Perkins said. "Ms. Conatonhas given me insight into interna-tional perspectives and a differentaspect of the world." Perkins alsosaid she will be attending Lafayettefor her undergraduate degree, butwill be attending Harvard for herlaw degree. Perkins hopes to studyinternational law. "The new laptopwill be good for college, too,"Perkins added.

Breedlove thanked the parents,and congratulated the students ona job well done.

"Nathan has taught me how tothink introspectively," Breedlovesaid. "I learned from him during thisexperience too." Breedlove's voiceboomed throughout the ballroomas he showered Dupree with prais-es, stating it has been his pleasurewatching the young man excelwhen he comes from a very chal-lenging background.

"We, as leaders, are always beingwatched, always being looked upto," Breedlove said. "You might mementoring and not even know it."

Breedlove ended by thankingthe mentors for setting a pattern of

JOINT BASE ANACOSTIA-BOLLING, D.C. -- It was 237 years ago that the U.S. ContinentalArmy was first established. Today, our nationcelebrates the efforts of our men and womenin uniform for their continued honor, loyalty,andbraveryinproudlydefendingourfreedom.

When the American Revolution broke out,the rebellious colonies did not possess anarmy in the modern sense. Rather, the revolu-tionaries fielded an amateur force of colonialtroops put together from various New Englandmilitia companies. In the spring of 1775, this"army" was about to confront British troopsnear Boston, Massachusetts. As it turns out,the revolutionaries had to re-organize theirforces quickly if they were to stand a chanceagainst Britain's more seasoned forces.

Recognizing the need to enlist all of theAmerican seaboard colonies, the Massachu-setts Provincial Congress appealed to the Sec-ond Continental Congress in Philadelphia toassume authority for the New England army.At John Adams' request, Congress voted to

adopt the Boston troops on June 14. On thisday Congress also resolved to form a commit-tee to bring in a draft of rules and regulationsfor the government of the Army.

Moreover, Congress authorized the forma-tion of ten companies of expert riflemen fromPennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia. Theywere later directed to march to Boston andhelp support the New England militia. On July3, 1775, George Washington received his ap-pointment as commander-in-chief of theContinental Army and took command atBoston.

In marking the Army's birthday this year,U.S. Army Chief of Staff Gen. Raymond T.Odierno offered his thoughts in a recordedmessage on its website, Army.mil. He toldservice members and Americans everywherethe Army will never walk away from its moraland ethical values.

"Our profession of arms is based on thebedrock of trust between soldiers and leaders,as well as the trust between the Army and theAmerican people," Odierno said. "The Armyis going to get leaner, more agile, more adap-tive and more integrated and synchronized inthe years ahead."

Odierno added the Army will continue todevelop capabilities that allow it to respond toa complex environment.

All week communities around the countrypaid homage to the Army with celebrationsand well wishes. At the Pentagon in Arlington,Va. Thursday, Washington Nationals mascotsScreech and the racing presidents were onhand for a ceremonial birthday cake cuttingceremony. As part of the festivities, the U.S.Army band also performed for guests that in-cluded the vice-chief of staff and secretary ofthe Army.

Twenty-four of the 65 students, ranging from 2nd – 12thgraders, successfully completed the requirements to receive anew laptop computer installed with Microsoft Office 2007. Thestudents and mentors were recognized on stage while they werepresented with their laptop and certificates of appreciation.Thelaptops, according to ACE-E, will continue to develop students’technology skills as they pursue secondary education or entersociety and the working force.

After receiving his laptop on stage, Dupree said, "This hasbeen a life changing experience for me. I want to thank Gen.Breedlove, because I couldn't have done this by myself."

One of the youngest students to receive recognition thatevening was 9-year-old Gavin Hollingsworth. "I have an awe-some mentor, I am so glad I got paired up with him,"Hollingsworth said. "I also think the laptop is awesome, and agood way to keep in contact with my dad who is deployed."

Hollingsworth's mentor is Airman 1st Class Richard Ransom,who helped him complete the projects that earned him his lap-top. "The projects were both fun and hard, but I really enjoyedlearning about the Microsoft programs," Hollingsworth said.

After the recognitions and awards had been received by thementor-student teams, Col. Monique Minnick, U.S. Air ForceReserve acting director of staff for Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling,ended the banquet by quoting Gandhi,“Be the change you wishto see in the world.”

What is your favorite part of your job?The most favorite part of my job is the sat-

isfaction I get as I know that the products thatI produce are going to support the war fight-ers on the ground. There is no better feelingknowing that my fellow service members aregetting the best possible intelligence avail-able.

What's your favorite color, and why?My favorite color is blue. I really don't

know why, I have just always liked the colorblue. Some say that it brings out the blue inmy eyes, but I really wouldn't know.

What's your favorite candy?Butterfingers

What is your favorite movie quote?"Ready to sail across God's vast ocean,

where we will meet our enemy and kill them

all," from The Pacific as quoted by Lewis B."Chesty" Puller

If you could have any super power, whatwould it be and why?

If I could have any super power, it wouldbe the ability to empower people with com-mon sense. Why, because to me, commonsense is becoming something of the past.

What would you do if you won $1 mil-lion?

I would donate a portion of it to theWoundedWarrior Project, it is a great organi-zation and I try my best to donate not onlymoney but my time to those guys.They sacri-ficed a lot for us and they deserve to be treatedlike the heroes they are. I would also set up atrust fund for my daughter so she would beset for college, and I would splurge a little onmy wife and buy myself a truck. The remain-

ing money would be invested wisely.

Who inspires you, and why?No specific person inspires me. The men

and women who have worked their butts offto get where they are, the men and womenwho have sacrificed so much to achieve great-ness, the ones who never gave up in the faceof adversity. Those are the ones who inspireme to be the best I can be and achieve great-ness in my own right.

What is your best military memory?My best military memory would have to

be seeing my daughter's birth through a

video chat while I was deployed toAfghanistan. That is hands down the greatestpersonal and military memory I have hadthus far.

What do you want people to know aboutyou?

I am just one guy in this whole scheme ofthings. I am trying to do my best serving be-side some of the greatest men and women ofthe U.S. Armed Forces who themselves areserving to protect this nation and preservefreedom and democracy around the world. Itake great pride in supporting the war fightersaround the world.
