and the king piece in chess.
“I watched wrestling growing up,” said
DJ Chong-Gum, of his piece.
Elsewhere, students coaxed intricate
tribal patterns spiked with flowers and
waves out of paint.
As the daylight faded, a few dedicated
artists remained focused on their work.
“I’ve just about got it,” said Mike Ma-
kovec, assisting with the design for his
daughter Abri’s design. He eyed the re-
peating pattern of waves, silver on blue.
The student and volunteers worked
for hours before enjoying lunch grilled
by James Chong-Gum.
Then, they were back to work, laying
in the street that runs between where for
years, many of the students have lived,
worked and played.
It’s fitting that it is here the senior
class makes a final mark before taking
the next steps into their adult lives.

U.S. SPACE AND MISSILE DEFENSE COMMAND HISTORY 2
What does the northern United States have
in common with Kwajalein Atoll? Together,
both areas share a common era in space
and missile defense development history.
Home to the first Minuteman missile
squadron, Montana’s Malmstrom Air
Force Base was selected in the second
round of sites for the deployment of the
3
Sentinel missile program.
As in North Dakota, the Malmstrom U.S. SPACE AND MISSILE DEFENSE COMMAND PHOTO
Complex would include a Perimeter
Acquisition Radar, a Missile Site Radar
and related missile fields. The first step
in establishing the site was awarding
the water supply system contract. Bids
for the work opened on Oct. 7, 1970 in
Seattle. Eight companies responded to
the invitation for bids.
An Army Corps of Engineers colonel
at the time noted that per the Pentagon
guidance, “great stress had been put
on the fact that prospective bids must
include a plan for employment of mi- 4
nority workers, when invitations to bid
were mailed out.”
Only two included such a plan. The 1) Pictured in this 2016 photo, an LGM- Space and Missile Defense Command. 3)

Call the Kwajalein Fire Department at 5-2222.
TRUE FACTS ABOUT FIRE SAFETY AROUND THE HOME
- A closed door may slow the spread of smoke, heat and fire.
- Smokle alarms should be installed inside every sleeping room, outside each separate
sleeping area and on every level of your home.
- Smoke alarms should be connected so when one sounds, they all sound. Most homes do
not have this level of protection.
- Roughly three out of five fire deaths happen in homes with no smoke alarms or no
working smoke alarms.
