1. I don’t normally send things like this, but I feel I have to this time.
God Bless America
K-Bar
By JOSEPH L. GALLOWAY
McClatchy Newspapers
Over the last 12 months, 1,042 soldiers, Marines, sailors and Air Force personnel have given their lives in the terrible duty that is war. Thousands more have come home on stretchers, horribly wounded and facing months or years in military hospitals.
This week, I’m turning my space over to a good friend and former roommate, Army Lt. Col. Robert Bateman, who recently completed a year long tour of duty in Iraq and is now back at the Pentagon. Here’s Lt. Col. Bateman’s account of a little-known ceremony that fills the halls of the Army corridor of the Pentagon with cheers, applause and many tears every Friday morning. It first appeared on May 17 on the Weblog of media critic and pundit Eric Alterman at the Media Matters for America Website.
“It is 110 yards from the “E” ring to the “A” ring of the Pentagon. This section of the Pentagon is newly renovated; the floors shine, the hallway is broad, and the lighting is bright. At this instant the entire length of the corridor is packed with officers, a few sergeants and some civilians, all crammed tightly three and four deep against the walls. There are thousands here. This hallway, more than any other, is the `Army’ hallway. The G3 offices line one side, G2 the other, G8 is around the corner. All Army. Moderate conversations flow in a low buzz. Friends, who may not have seen each other for a few weeks, or a few years, spot each other, cross the way and renew.
Everyone shifts to ensure an open path remains down the center. The air conditioning system was not designed for this press of bodies in this area. The temperature is rising already. Nobody cares.
10:36 hours: The clapping starts at the E-Ring. That is the outer most of the five rings of the Pentagon and it is closest to the entrance to the building. This clapping is low, sustained, and hearty. It is applause with a deep emotion behind it as it moves forward in a wave down the length of the hallway.
A steady rolling wave of sound it is, moving at the pace of the soldier in the wheelchair who marks the forward edge with his presence. He is the first. He is missing the greater part of one leg, and some of his wounds are still suppurating. By his age, I expect that he is a private, or perhaps a private first class.
Captains, majors, lieutenant colonels and colonels meet his gaze and nod as they applaud, soldier to soldier.
Three years ago when I described one of these events, those lining the hallways were somewhat different. The applause a little wilders, perhaps in private guilt for not having shared in the burden. Yet now almost everyone lining the hallway is, like the man in the wheelchair, also a combat veteran. This steadies the applause, but I think deepens the sentiment. We have all been there now. The soldier’s chair is pushed by, I believe, a full colonel. Behind him, and stretching the length from Rings E to A, come more of his peers, each private, corporal, or sergeant assisted as need be by a field grade officer.
11:00 hours: Twenty-four minutes of steady applause. My hands hurt, and I laugh to myself at how stupid that sounds in my own head. My hands hurt. Please! Shut up and clap. For twenty-four minutes, soldier after soldier has come down this hallway – 20, 25, 30. Fifty-three legs come with them, and perhaps only 52 hands or arms, but down this hall came 30 solid hearts.
They pass down this corridor of officers and applause, and then meet for a private lunch, at which they are the guests of honor, hosted by the generals. Some are wheeled along. Some insist upon getting out of their chairs, to march as best they can with their chin held up, down this hallway, through this most unique audience. Some are catching handshakes and smiling like a politician at a Fourth of July parade. More than a couple of them seem amazed and are smiling shyly.
There are families with them as well: the 18-year-old war-bride pushing her 19-year-old husband’s wheelchair and not quite understanding why her husband is so affected by this, the boy she grew up with, now a man, who had never shed a tear is crying; the older immigrant Latino parents who have, perhaps more than their wounded mid-20s son, an appreciation for the emotion given on their son’s behalf. No man in that hallway, walk ing or clapping, is ashamed by the silent tears on more than a few cheeks. An Airborne Ranger wipes his eyes only to better see. A couple of the officers in this crowd have themselves been a part of this parade in the past.
These are our men, broken in body they may be, but they are our brothers, and we welcome them home. This parade has gone on, every single Friday, all year long, for more than four years.
Did you know that? The media hasn’t yet told the story. And probably never will.

6. Hiring Authority for Certain Military Spouses ● Oct 2009
Background
Executive Order 13473 dated September 25, 2008, authorizes noncompetitive appointments in the civil service for spouses of certain members of the Armed Forces. The intended effect of this rule is to facilitate the entry of military spouses into the Federal civil service as part of an effort to recruit and retain skilled and experienced members of the Armed Forces and to recognize and honor the service of members injured, disabled, or killed in connection with their service. This appointment authority is effective 11 September 2009.
Key Messages
Who is eligible?--
(1) Spouses of armed forces members serving on active duty for 180 days or more provided the spouse relocates to the member’s new permanent duty station within two years from the date of the PCS or the date of this executive order.
(2) Spouses of armed forces members retired from active duty under Chapter 61 of title 10, United States Code with a disability rating of 100%.
(3) Spouses of armed forces members released from active duty and have a disability rating of 100% from the Department of Veterans Affairs.
(4) Un-remarried widows or widowers of armed forces members killed while serving on active duty.

(5) Applicants will be considered along with other non-competitive applicants, i.e., veterans, Schedule A, reinstatement eligibles.

Considerations
Applies to temporary, term, and permanent positions in the competitive service
Public notice is required
Applicants must qualify for the position
No rating and ranking of applicants is required
Applicants will be considered along with other non-competitive applicants, i.e., veterans, Schedule A, reinstatement eligibles
All priority programs must be cleared, i.e., PPP, RPL, ICTAP
Q&A
1. Are there any additional eligibility requirements?
– To claim eligibility based on a PCS, the spouse must be authorized and relocate with
the service member to the new permanent duty station via PCS orders. Eligibility is limited to
positions in the geographical area indicated on the PCS orders and expires after two years.
– To claim eligibility based on a spouse’s disability rating of 100%, the applicant will provide proof of the service member release or discharged due to the 100 percent disability and proof of marriage to the service member. There are no geographic limitations to the positions for which these spouses are eligible.
– To claim eligibility based on death of a service member, the service member must
have been killed while on active duty. There are no geographic limitations to the positions for which these widowed spouses are eligible.
2. What specifically is meant by a PCS move?
– A PCS move or permanent change of station is the assignment, reassignment or
transfer of a service member from his or her present duty station or location without return to the previous duty station or location.
3. Must the service member been killed by enemy attack in order for the spouse to claim appointment eligibility?
– No. The service member must have died while on active duty and could have been the result of enemy attack, accident, disease, or natural causes.
4. How do managers take advantage of this new appointment authority?
– This non-competitive appointment authority is a new hiring flexibility available to
managers hiring civilian employees. Managers will now be able to consider military spouses who previously may have had no specific hiring authority for jobs in the federal service. This is a win-win for everyone. Managers may now recruit from a pool of well-qualified military spouses who are just as dedicated to the service of their nation as their active duty spouses.
5. How do military spouses find out about potential jobs?
– Spouses may visit their local Human Resources Office for information about vacancies in the federal government and they may visit any number of websites that post vacancies for federal jobs, such as www.usajobs.gov. For civilian jobs in the Navy, this website is: https://chart.donhr.navy.mil/.
