Another one of their many finest hours The British people are made of stern stuff. They have shown their mettle time and time again in the long history of England. They lost more than one million men in World War I and kept fighting to the end. During World War II, Londoners endured the Blitz, kept the proverbial stiff upper lip and stoically vowed to never surrender. Winston Churchill was the voice of England, but the British people were her soul. When their Army was trapped against the sea at Dunkirk, civilians manned yachts, fishing boats, sailing vessels and even rowboats to cross the treacherous English Channel braving German air attacks and submarines to rescue 300,000 British and French soldiers so they could fight another day. When the U-boats devastated their merchant fleet and the whole of Britain was facing starvation, no Englishman thought of quitting. As the German Luftwaffe bombed

By Elizabeth Davie Reporter Kwajalein Armed Forces Network welcomes three new faces to the island, a video producer, an engineer and a radio personality. Mike Zeitzmann is a video producer from Missouri. Before coming to Kwajalein he freelanced in Dallas for nine years doing videography and editing. “I’ll be producing some local PSA’s [public service announcements] for AFN, assisting with Window on the Atoll, and putting messages into the Roller,” he said. According to Zeitzmann he came to Kwaj because he was looking for a change from both corporate video and Dallas. “Kwaj is definitely a change from both. Also, I knew if I didn’t take this opportunity, I’d be wondering “what if” for the rest of my life,” he said. “After a month, I really like it here. It’s really good to have everything so close together. In Dallas, my morning commute was a half-hour in congested traffic. Here, it’s 90 seconds by bike,” he said. When asked if he had any funny or interesting stories he said, “I was born in Washington, Mo., which at the time was the “Corn-Cob Pipe” capital of the world.

credit cards in your name. “When creating passwords and personal identification numbers, do not use the last four digits of your social security number, mother’s maiden name, your birth date, middle name, pet’s name, consecutive numbers or anything else that could easily be discovered by thieves. It’s best to create passwords that combine letters and numbers.” Identity theft can happen through sources other than the Internet. Paul Divinski, KRS Retail Sales manager, said that the retail stores within USAKA have processes in place which make it difficult for identity thieves to prosper. “We enter K-badge (or C-Badge at Ten/Ten and Gimbel’s) or “Mil ID” for military ID in the register databank during the sale,” he said of the retail outlets. “Access to this data is restricted to store management, and it is treated as confidential information and not printed or provided to others,” he added. According to Divinski no photocopies of identification cards are made or kept. He said that if a customer attempted to use identification that seemed to be fraudulent, “Management would be notified. Purchase of goods would be refused. Communication of possible fraudulent card and name of cardholder would be provided with approval to Provost Marshal’s Office.” Both Wildfang and Divinski have advice to consumers when it comes to possible identity theft. “Do not provide social security numbers, bank account numbers, or credit card numbers or expiration dates to people who solicit information via phone or e-mail. Destroy thoroughly unneeded credit card, bank account statements or other paperwork which contain confidential account numbers or social security number.” “Install a firewall on your home computer to prevent hackers from obtaining personal identifying and financial data from your hard drive. Install and update virus protection software to prevent a worm or virus from causing your computer to send out files or other stored information. Password-protect files that contain sensitive personal data, such as financial account information. Create passwords that combine 6-8 numbers and letters, upper and lower case,” Wildfang recommends for home-computer users. “When shopping online, do business with companies that provide transaction security protection, and that have strong privacy and security policies,” she added. She also suggested “Ask your financial institutions to add extra security protection to your account. Most will allow you to use an additional code or password (a number or word) when accessing your account.” She said that the most common way con artists and thieves get people’s identification information on the Internet is via public record sites and fee-based information broker sites. Wildfang added that consumers should not have their social security number or driver’s license number printed on their checks. “Don’t let merchants hand-write the SSN onto your checks because of the risk of fraud. There is no law against this, so you may need to be assertive. Examine your Social

Are you a victim?

According to the Federal Trade Commission Web site, if an identity thief is opening new credit accounts in your name, these accounts are likely to show up on your credit report. Other indications of identity theft can be: • failing to receive bills or other mail. This could mean an identity thief has submitted a change of address. • receiving credit cards for which you did not apply. • denial of credit for no apparent reason. • receiving calls from debt collectors or companies about merchandise or services you didn’t buy. In the computer age a new form of piracy has grown. It’s called phishing. Defined as the act of sending an e-mail to a user falsely claiming to be an established legitimate enterprise in an attempt to scam the user into surrendering private information that will be used for identity theft. The e-mail directs the user to visit a Web site where they are asked to update personal information, such as passwords and credit card, social security, and bank account numbers, that the legitimate organization already has. The Web site, however, is bogus and set up only to steal the user’s information. For example, in 2003 there was a phishing scam in which users received e-mails supposedly from a legitimate site claiming that the user’s account was about to be suspended unless he clicked on the provided link and updated the credit card information that the genuine site already had. Because it is relatively simple to make a Web site look like a legitimate organizations site by mimicking the HTML code, the scam counted on people being tricked into thinking they were actually being contacted by representative of a legitimate company and were subsequently going to that site to update their account information. By spamming large groups of people, the “phisher” counted on the e-mail being read by a percentage of people who actually had listed credit card numbers with the company legitimately. The FTC recommends that if consumers think that their identity has been stolen that they should close accounts that they believe have been tampered with or opened fraudulently. They should also file a police report and get a copy of the report to submit to their creditors. The consumers should also file a complaint with the FTC. The FTC maintains a database of identity theft cases used by law enforcement agencies for investigations. The FTC offers a series of publications about the importance of personal information privacy. To request free copies of brochures, visit ftc.gov or call (877) FTC-HELP (382-4357).

In conjunction with this operation, a caution area will exist within the Kwajalein Atoll. The caution area is bounded on the north by Boked Island on the East reef and Yabbernohr Island on the West reef. On the south, the area is bounded by a line drawn north of Bigej island on the East reef to a point at latitude 08 54.2N, longitude 167 45.8E, then to a point at latitude 08 52.8N, longitude 167 45.8E, and then to a point north of the high tide mark on Ninni Island on the West Reef. Bigej Island, including the inner reef, is specifically excluded and is not a part of the mid-atoll corridor. All mid-atoll corridor islands are designated as sheltered islands. Additional areas specified outside the mid-atoll are designated as caution areas, see maps.

In order to ensure clearance of non-mission support personnel from the mid-atoll corridor by the window opening time, Kwajalein Police Department island clearance procedures will begin at approximately 7:30 a.m. on Monday and continue until evacuation has been accomplished. Egress of all air and seacraft will be required when requested by authorized clearance personnel. Subsequent to lagoon clearance, the hazard area will be in effect until mission completion.

REACCREDITED, from Page 3 observe teacher/child and teacher/ parent interaction and to send out surveys to parents and the children at SAS. Once this is done, a team is put together to develop a plan for improving each program. Tiffany explained that at the CDC, which is for children from 2-anda-half to kindergarten, they were working on developing smaller group training to provide more individual instruction for the children. The SAS, which is for children grades one though six, an emphasis was put on developing activities for the

older children, such as having high school students teach classes such as dance and cooking. After the plan for the CDC was done it was sent to the National Association for the Education of Young Children and the SAS plan was sent to the National After School Association. Each association sent someone out to observe and score the program, Tiffany explained. The plan and the evaluation were sent back to the proper association for review by a board. The board

decided if the program should be accredited, she added. “This is an ongoing process, you don’t get accredited and forget about it,” Tiffany said. There are annual reports that need to be sent to show constant improvement. “It takes a lot of work from the staff and the parents, a lot of teamwork, to get something like this done,” she said. For more information on the accreditation or one of the programs, call the CDC at 52158 or the SAS at 51722.
