European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - July 28, 1986, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Monday july 28, 1986 the stars and stripes Page 11 Ann Landers dear Ann Landers i am writing in reference to your recent article entitled dead at 17 a harrowing warning to teens starting to  1 cried White Reading it. My beloved 17-year-old son was one of four Young people killed in a Drunken driving Accident i september. Obviously the effect on me and my other three sons was Devalal ing. But More important was the Long term effect on other Young people in our Community in terms of altering Shtir behaviour. I m sorry to Lay it made absolutely no Impact. The parties go on As before. Getting plastered is still  until there is peer pressure against drinking and driving we will continue to have serious injuries and Many More Young people will die in alcohol related accidents. It is therefore incumbent upon parents to Lake control of the situation and do something. I speak to Par ent and student groups every Opportunity i get. As the Mother of a dead on and As a nurse who has worked in emergency rooms for 20 years i have plenty to say. Many teen agers arc not Able to make appropriate decisions regarding alcohol so we must make the Deci Sions for them. By not taking a stand by doing Noth ing we condone their drinking. False identification cards Are easily obtainable. It is estimated that Ihrck of imps of All High school students have them i need your help Ann. My Ideal Are not unique but they need to be re emphasized. Here they Are 1. Set a curfew and enforce it. 2. Seriously consider not allowing 16-year-Olds to drive if they Are not mature enough to accept adult responsibility. 3. Take the car keys away from your child indefinitely if he has been caught drinking. 4. Don t take responsibility for your child s actions such As paving his fines or trying to gel him off. Part of becoming an adult is assuming responsibility for one s behaviour. 5. Do not serve minors alcoholic beverages pre prom cocktail parties Etc. It is against the Law. When your child is going to a party Call up and make sure there will be adult supervision and no alcohol will be served. 6. Know How much Beer wine and hard liquor is in the House and periodically Check to see if any is miss ing. A locked bar it a Good deterrent. 7. Check your child when be Comet Home for Alco hol breath. Inform your teen that you will be waiting tip to make sure All is Well 8. If you leave your teen Ager Home without adult supervision for an evening or a weekend make it Plain that there will be no parties White you Are gone. If you team he cannot be trusted get an adult to stay in the House in your absence. 9. Be Alert for false identification cards in your child s Possession. 10. Talk to other parents about problems and Selling limits. You Aren t the Only one having these problems. Thanks for your support Ann. Lynne d. Pancoast.

Letters morale welfare comments clarified a recent edition carried coverage of military clubs to was with genuine concern thai i read and reread the problems to be solved entry. Tom Gram chief of Usa eur morale welfare and recreation activities is quoted mar is the one place in the military where you ought to think in terms of profit. Too Many of our older managers Are not motivated to make Money Many of them Are just putting in time. We need a mix of old and Young blood. Young blood brings new ideas. Young people make older people work harder. And once we identify Good managers we mus make sure they get All the training they  if that is a True quote i find it immature insulting and in fact bordering on age discrimination. Addition ally if those Are or. Grant s words i request rebuttal space. To or. Gram i say excuse me bul Loo Many managers forget that first and Foremost mar is the Arm of the commander in providing morale welfare and recreation for the troops and must not be for profit goal oriented. Lam certainly behind operations being in the Black but first and Foremost and forever is caring for the troops. I can1 argue with the need to change prices up or Down try Down sometime the results might interest you or the need to change a Type or style of operation in order to conduct business. But i refuse to accept Profil As a goal of mar in terms of dollars when the real profit in mar is and must be the people you serve. Please remember these words which a Good Friend of mine once voiced with Pride the Mission of Themer personnel is to care for the needs of the troops who Are taking care of  please do that 1 am As for Young people making older people work harder surely you jest. I m 47 and just getting started. Make my  end rebuttal. I would have preferred to answer or. Grant directly but for two reasons i chose this route. First if that is not a True quote it should be corrected. Second find this Type of thinking to be slowly hut continuously voiced within mar. Our troops need to be pumped up not beat  my eyes the troops need to know How a com Mander feel about the mar Mission col. Stephens Stinsoa rams Tui a Germany editor s  Grant director com Man Ltd and family support directorate. Office of Deputy chief of Stafl Persoons Fhy Tscheu replies i am graft Fol Tor lib Opportunity to respond directly in the concerns raised in cot. Stenson s letter. Hopefully the following information will clarify seven Points discussed in the letter while pointing out some differences that exist Between the army did air Force Mph programs. As Yon Point out mar is the Arm of the command Erin providing morale welfare and recreation for the troops. Let me assure Yoa that caring for our troops is uppermost in our minds. However our Overall objectives to put mar programs on a self sustaining basis. To achieve this some activities must nuke Money in order to compensate others that will never be self us sunning. Then an differences Between air Force and army programs of which Yon should be aware. The two serv ices have very different Means of funding their respective mar program at the local level. The air farce distributes cafes dividends directly to hate mar non appropriated fond instrumental ties Nafi for operating expense. For the army he department of the army retains All the dividends use them to fund Naf major construction worldwide. Another variance is found in the Slot machine pro Gram to the air Force � sub scandal portion of the Slot machine revenues remain a the base. Usa eur Slot machine revenues Are not recorded As income to he  fund instrumental ties Nafi at Community level the end remit i that Usa eur Myrna i Raml generate virtually All  funds used to Epport activities and programs on  our style of operation in contacting business is Chan Ging every Day. The army is striving for More Businesslike operation. What this Means is that mar patrons in the army will Vole with their feet and their dollars in deciding which services they need or desire. Certain mar managers must think in terms of generating funds to support other mar activities. Let me stale that or. Hover the Stan and stripes state writer did a super Job in Condeni lug an interview that muted Over two noun into a Short concise Story. The statement. Too Many of our older managers Are not motivated to make Money. Many of them Are just context and unintended we join Yoa id desiring the finest mar program in he world for our personnel however.
