good brothers and Ms. Pam [Assistant Principal Pamela Wimberly, Ramstein Middle school, member of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc.] for giving us access to help mentor these young men because she saw a need, we have been able to truly mentor these young men and make a really positive effect. It’s a blessing to have the Grand Chapter mem- bers mentor them today and tell them about what they have to look forward to during college. Planting those seeds now and keep- ing them on the right path really makes a difference.” After mentoring the youth, the D9 leaders were given the opportunity to engage with our military on Ramstein Airbase, led by Brig. Gen. Otis C. Jones (Fayetteville (NC) AL 1999), commanding general, 86th Airlift Wing. Brother Jones is currently serving as the United States Air Forces in Europe–Air Forces Africa, chief of staff, but during the 60th Anni- versary Commemoration he was the commanding general. During the visit, Jones personally facilitated a tour of the headquarters, flightline and facilitated a roundtable discussion to inform and create a dialogue of what every organization
is contributing to the greater KMC community. “The meeting with the D9 leaders was an awesome experience for the Kaiser- slautern Community,” said From top: Brig. Gen. Otis C.
