Now, as the Battalion looks for-

organize for our other upcoming
missions. One of my major focal
points as a Command over the
coming months will be to ensure
that we continue to keep you all
as informed as possible. In the
next 45 days, we will be required
to turn in all of our tanks and
bradley‘s, transition to a light
infantry battalion formation, and
begin preparation for a possible
deployment next summer.
Among all of these challenges, the
remainder of the Battalion‘s com-
pany level leaders will change by
the end of September, effectively
establishing the ―deployment‖
team as early as possible. Will
this transition be perfect? No –
but judging by the performance of
your Soldiers over the last eight

CSM Mulig Comments
Dear Friends and Families of 1st
CAB, 67th AR,
On behalf of my wife, Kimberly and
our four children, I want to express
how honored we are to be a part of
the Dealer family. As I stepped in
as the Command Sergeant Major for
this Battalion on 5 August, I quickly
packed up my rucksack and headed
out to Camp Red Devil to join in on
your Soldiers recent Field Training
CSM Mulig Exercise (FTX) here at Fort Carson.
What I found was a great group of
Soldiers who were highly moti-
vated, dedicated to the training mis-
DEALER JOURNAL
challenge laid in front of
them, and I cannot help but
know that they will amaze
us all again.
Up front, I will acknowl-
edge that we still don‘t have
the whole ―predictability
thing‖ down pat – although
I‘ll bet that we are better
than most. In the beginning
of March, every family
member knew that their
Soldier would possibly de-
ploy to West Point this
summer for at least 30 days.
My goal for this next period
is to provide even more
predictability to you and
your Family. This newslet-
ter will be the first attempt
to relay what is going on
over the next several
months. We will persevere
to get better – we owe that
much to you – the rocks
sion, and had a sense of
camaraderie which I was
totally not expecting, espe-
cially due to the high op-
erational tempo your Sol-
diers have endured over the
past summer. This proves
to me that your Soldier is a
professional who cares
about him/herself, their
battle buddy, and the unit.
This ―Care‖ attitude is a
wonderful attribute for
themselves, their families,
and friends alike and it is
something Kimberly and I
upon which our Soldiers stand
and our Nation‘s freedom is
founded.
As always, stay in touch with
your Family Readiness Groups.
They will have the most up to
date information with regards to
upcoming events, field time, etc.
I do not expect much, if any,
field time until mid-late Octo-
ber, and even after than I expect
the majority of the Battalion‘s
field time to be compressed into
a single one month period.
Your FRG‘s will have the latest
information – use them.
Thank you again for what
you and your Soldiers do for
this Battalion, this Brigade, this
Division and the Army on a
daily basis. We are a stronger
unit because of your efforts.

ALPHA Company Commander

Friends and families of A/1-67AR,
It has been a busy two weeks for Assassin
Company. My family and I were wel-
comed into the company on 20AUG10
with the change of command ceremony
and then properly sent to the field for Pla-
toon/Company Lanes. The Leaders and
Soldiers of the squads and platoons per-
formed exceptionally well during Platoon
and Company Lanes. The Soldiers re-
ceived numerous accolades for their pro-
fessionalism and execution of the lanes.
As we go forward into September our fo-
cus turns to maintenance and turn in of
vehicles as well as reorganizing our
unit for future training events. From
my brief time in the company, I am
excited about the initiative and work
ethic displayed during the Platoon and
Company Lanes as we continue for-
ward. I am honored and humbled to
be part of a great organization.

Friends and families of A 1/67
AR,
I would like to first off thank all
of you for your dedication to
your soldier while they were
occupied in the field, for two
weeks. Without the families
the soldiers wouldn't be moti-
vated to do such great work for
the company. Assassin com-
pany met my expectations
and really surprised me on the
level they were performing during
the recent field problem. We will
continue to grow stronger and be-
come a excellent team but not
without the help of the families.
We will be back for about forty
five days and it will be a great
change of pace for the company. I
will make
sure they train hard during the day
so they are set up for success in fu-
ture endeavors. As the summer turns
I ask that if the families have any
creative ways to raise money for the
FRG, please let us know so that we
can make it happen. Thanks again for
your support and you should be very
proud of your husbands, sons and
fathers because Assassin company
leads the
way and will always be the best.

Friends and Families of Bonesaw,
During the last month your Soldiers excelled in Com-
pany and Platoon Lanes. I am proud of each and every one of
the Bonesaw Team and the effort they put into these events.
Company Lanes marked the end of Phase I training for the BN,
and now we will start mission focused training for Afghanistan.
On 15 SEP, Bonesaw will be sending one Squad from 3rd PLT
to augment one of the Tank Platoons in Delta Company. These
Soldiers will be in an attached status through the upcoming
train-up and deployment. These Soldiers have already been
identified, so everyone who will be leaving Bravo Company
has been informed about their changing status. Julie sent out
an email concerning the Battalion Ball already but I would like
to reiterate that it will be held at the Antler‘s Hilton on 30 SEP

Dear Families and Friends,
The last month has been a busy time for Gator Company as we
prepare to transfer our Disability Evaluation System (DES) Sol-
diers over to 4/4ID for continued care and completion of their
Medical Evaluation Boards (MEB). This transfer is taking place to
enable the battalion to prepare for its upcoming deployment.
Though it is unfortunate that we will not be able to see our Sol-
diers through the completion of their MEBs, we are putting great
effort to ensure that the transfer is a smooth one and that the com-
pany who will be receiving our Soldiers are prepared and able to
pick up where we left off.
Our Soldiers will be transferring to the transition company in 2-
12IN BN, 4BCT, 4ID. As part of the process, the BDE has in-
stilled a three day ―Cadre Academy,‖ where the current transition
companies along with external agencies across the post will give
classes specifically about the DES process and the challenges it
brings for both the command and the Soldiers. After the cadre
academy, there will 10 days of ―Right Seat Rides‖ as part of the
Relief in Place (RIP) activities prior to actually transferring our
Soldiers to 4th BDE. During our ―Right Seat Rides,‖ my chain of
command will sit down with the incoming cadre from 2-12IN to
give a detailed handover of our Soldiers. We will not only cover
what the medical issues are for each Soldier, but give a back-
ground, so that the Soldier is not just another name on a list to the
incoming cadre. The intent is for the incoming cadre to actually
get to know the Soldiers before they transfer and allow the transi-
tion to be as seamless as possible for the Soldiers to allow for con-

tinued quality of medical care, established leave dates, etc. to
continue from Day 1 and not affect a Soldier or his or her
Family‘s already made plans. From our viewpoint, despite
their departure to 4th BDE, we still care about the futures of
each of our Soldiers, and want to ensure that they receive the
best of medical care and overall treatment. They have served
their country honorably and deserve nothing less. I believe
that the process we have in place is a quality one and will
benefit our Soldiers in the long run as they continue their
transition with 2-12IN.
In addition to preparing for the upcoming transfer, our Sol-
diers have been working hard to support the rest of the bat-
talion while they were in the field. Our Soldiers have not
only been completing all of the battalion‘s, and at times bri-
gade‘s, required red cycle tasks, but have also diligently sup-
ported the community of Colorado Springs with continued
volunteer efforts such as Adopt—A—Highway, Marion
House, Goodwill, and Care & Share. Additionally, our Sol-
diers have served the battalion directly by acting as role play-
ers or ―Civilians on the Battlefield‖ during Platoon Lanes. I
am thoroughly impressed with the performance and dedica-
tion our Soldiers have shown over the last month and truly
believe that they embodied the Army Value of ―Selfless Ser-
vice.‖
Finally, I want to thank everyone for their continued support
of Gator Company. It is because of the support of our fami-
lies and friends that allow us to do what we do on a daily
basis and for that I am forever grateful. I wish you all the
best. — Gator 6

has placed emphasis on areas such as immunizations to help lower the number of non-deployable soldiers
in the Battalion. The Medical Platoon Sergeant, SFC Simington, arrived in July and has truly motivated
the platoon. Having vast knowledge in the medical field and coming from the Special Forces 18D course
SFC Simington has implemented a significant amount of training in the Platoon. The platoon just com-
pleted trauma, MASCAL and MEDCAP lanes that tested the knowledge and reaction time of the medics.
SFC Simington and SSG Smith, Treatment NCOIC, have conducted medical classes and guided the medics
through the variety of lanes. In the future the platoon has a large amount of training planned such as TC3,
live tissue, burn center training, and EFMB. The focus of the platoon is geared towards what the medics
will face during the upcoming Afghanistan deployment. The Medical Platoon has tough quality training in
place, a high level of motivation from the new leadership, and the confidence being built as a platoon to
achieve the next level in medical aid. - Voodoo 1

Layette Program and Gifts for New Babies

A message from Erikka Simmering
Hello to all the Soldiers and Families of 1-67! I wanted to put a quick note in the newslet-
ter this month regarding all our new additions to the unit. We have revamped our baby
layette program for post and babies will now be receiving the 4ID layette at Evans when
they are born. If your child is not born at Evans, please contact Fran to obtain a Layette.
My husband and I also have a small "Welcome" gift from the unit that we had been hand-
ing out monthly at the Steering Committee Meeting with the layettes. We have decided to
keep the gift in Fran‘s office for either the Soldier, Family member, or Company represen-
tative to pick up as babies are born. We enjoy presenting them at the meetings but it will
be even harder to keep track of our new babies with the change in the layette program and
are concerned about missing someone. This will also allow people to receive their gift
sooner rather than later. I think this will be the best way to get our gift out. All the best to
our families and new babies! We hope you enjoy your gift!

Best Regards,
Erikka Simmering
