Welcome Stardust Listeners - We thank you for joining us here on Tuesday, February 28th. Though it is the 28th, it is not the last day of February for 2012 as this is Leap Year and we have one more day to go in this month.

This has been a tough week with the loss of lives in Afghanistan. In our area, we have 6 Fallen Heroes who are being greatly missed and our prayers are with the families, friends and unit members.

One very sad situation that happened this past week is a reflection on the technology that we have at our hands today - and that we need to be responsible in how we use it. One wife found out through Facebook that her husband had been killed in the line of duty before she could be properly notified.

Also, since this has made the news, it might be a good idea to be very cautious about any such postings on any social media. If you do hear something, do not post it until it is verified - sometimes being the first with the news is not the most important thing. We also know how sensationalism can bring out some real kooks, so again, please be responsible with the items that you post on Facebook or any such website. If it involves someone else, let them post their own news when they are ready.

Today, we are bringing you three wonderful interviews. We begin with a couple of visits from Transit Center Manas in the Kyrgyz Republic where so much goes on 24 hours per day. Then we will visit with a 1Sgt from our new Army unit, the 3rd ESC.

Our show will end at 4:00pm Central. Remember, if you are not able to stay with us through the afternoon, this show will repeat again tomorrow evening - that is Wednesday, Feb 8th at 6:30pm Central.

(2:12pm) This afternoon, our first interview comes to us from Transit Center Manas in the Kyrgyz Republic as we visit with SSgt Trinity Stevens, who is deployed with the 37rth AEW (Air Expeditionary Wing) in the Public Affairs Office. As a Broadcaster and Videographer, SSgt Stevens has wide ranging opportunities to cover stories from military business to local culture and human interest. Raised by parents who served in the Navy, SSgt Stevens carries on the family's patriotic legacy and brings us a wonderful visit. We wish this wife and mom a wonderful homecoming at the end of her deployment.

(2:50pm) Our next guest was with us just a few weeks ago and had such an outstanding visit, that we asked him to come back and give us an update before heading home. Joining us is Capt Steve Martin who is also stationed at TC Manas in the Kyrgyzs Republic with the 376th AEW where he serves as the Medical Director for the TSC Humanitarian Assistance Program. As you will hear, the projects that come out of the TSC and the volunteer hours that are put in by the men and women on deployment are amazing. It is no wonder that we needed Capt Martin to come back again before he heads home to fill us in and we look forward to more updates by his replacement in the future. Thank you for a job well done and we wish you a joyful homecoming.

(3:28pm) Our third guest represents our fourth visit with the 3rd ESC (Expeditionary Sustainment Command) that is in the process of preparing for their deployment to Afghanistan. 1Sgt Kevin Fields is the HHC 1Sgt for the 3rd ESC and will share with us what type of responsibilities his job involves as well as a soldier's view of preparing for deployment. We know from previous visits that being a 1Sgt takes a special person who is skilled on many levels, and we will hear from 1Sgt Fields how this applies to him and his duties. We will also hear about his experience as a Drill Instructor, which has to be an interesting duty in many ways.

Once again we are very grateful to have the opportunity to bring you these beautiful visits with our Heroes of Freedom today and every Tuesday. We hope that you have enjoyed them and will join us again next week, Tuesday, February 21st for more interviews and news from our military members as they stand guard over our country and our freedom.

As always, our hearts and our prayers go out to all of our military members and Veterans, our first responders and to all their families, who also serve.
Of course, we thank all of you, our Stardust Listeners, for tuning in to United We Roll and to all of our programs here at Stardust Radio today and over the past ten years.

MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL & MAY GOD BLESS AMERICA!
