Vietnam veteran looks back on 40 years with Honor Flight trip

had great respect for the men who did (find familiar names), he said. The day of remembrance brought full circle a journey that began for Jeske in 1966. Drafted into the Army and then subsequently selected by the Marine Corps at the age of 21, Jeske was working at A.O.Smitha job he ended up holding for 42 yearswhen his country called him for duty. I was surprised and shocked, he said. I just looked at it like, When the time comes that they need me, theyll call me. Jeske spent the next year on a whirlwind, completing a very rough boot camp in San Diego, going through various forms of training, coming home to get married and spending a summer with an artillery group in North Carolina. In January 1967 he shipped out to Okinawa and remained there for six months. It was an adventure, he said of his time in Japan. Me and another fellow, who was also married, tried to stay away from the bars and the ladies, so we would take a cab as far as we could go up the island, or we would go beach-combing to keep busy. In June of that year, Jeske shipped out again, wrapping up his time in the military with a relatively uneventful six months in Vietnam. Now the father of five grown children and married for 28 years to wife Patricia, Jeske said he looks back on his time of service with a grateful heartbecause he realizes his personal outcome could have been very different. Thank God it was a safe time (when I served), he said. I got to swim in two oceans, see both coasts and spend time in Hawaii. And Vietnam was a beautiful country; it was just too bad there was a war. Jeske regards the period of 1966-68 as a time of growth. It taught me a lot about myself, he said. I learned a lot and became able to do a lot of things I didnt know how to do before that. So when he received the call this summer that he would get to revisit that season of his life, Jeske said he considered himself very lucky. Indeed, everywhere the veterans went that day they were thanked and cheered. As their flight departed, three P-51 Mustang fighters escorted the plane and as it landed at the Ronald Reagan Airport, the veterans were greeted by an even bigger crowd, and the plane received a water salute by an airport fire truck, Jeske recalled. People thanked us all day, he said. While we were at the Lincoln Memorial, tourists started gathering around us and taking our pictures. A mother had her 5-year-old son shake my hand. It was wonderful. However, the biggest fanfare was reserved for when the vets returned to AirVenture that evening as they were welcomed back by thousands of peopleincluding officials such as Sen. Ron Johnsonwith signs, hugs and gratitude. We walked through more than three blocks of people, two or three deep, lined up to meet us and thank us, said Jeske, whose personal greetings included a hug from his 10-year-old grandson. It seemed to go on forever; it was just amazing. The evening wrapped up with a concert by actor Gary Sinise's Lt. Dan Band and a performance of "Tie A Yellow Ribbon by Tony Orlando. Jeske said the Honor Flight experience will be filed away with his very best memories. Aside from my marriage and my kids, this was one of the highlights of my life, he said.

By Nikki Ackerman Staff Writer As Town of Jackson resident Dennis Jeske recalls his recent day trip to Washington, D.C., it is hard for him to not get a bit choked up. As one of the participants on the first ever Yellow Ribbon Honor Flight for Wisconsin Vietnam veterans, Jeske said the trip was the experience of a lifetime. I was overwhelmed and so impressed, he said. I am so grateful to everyone who put this together. Jeske said his daywhich included a walk along the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall, a stop at the Lincoln Memorial, lunch at the Smithsonian and a visit to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery where the group witnessed the Changing of the Guardwas one he will never forget. The whole thing was so moving, said Jeske. I just cant say enough about it. Jeske was one of 114 individuals randomly selected out of 525 applications for this one time-only trip for Vietnam veterans. The Aug. 3 event was organized by Appleton-based Old Glory Honor Flight, which has arranged numerous trips for World War II veterans, to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the end of hostilities in Vietnam. The hero treatment, said Jeske, began from the moment he and the other veterans arrived at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, where the annual EAA AirVenture aviation celebration was taking place. Even at 5 a.m., there was a small group greeting uspolice officers, volunteers, people from the airport, he said. That was really nice. After a greeting from Medal of Honor recipient and Vietnam veteran Gary Wetzel of Oak Creek, the playing of Taps and a prayer, the men departed on their early morning American Airlines flight. Their first stop, at The Wall, put Jeske in a place of solemn reflection as he watched his fellow veterans search for the names of friends they had lost in the war. I was relieved I didnt see anyone I knew (on The Wall), but I

Area communities celebrating holidays with festive spirit

By Nikki Ackerman Staff Writer

'Tis the season!

As the holidays approach, area communities will be hosting their annual parades and tree-lighting ceremoniesalong with a wide variety of family-friendly Christmas activities. While each city or village puts their own spin on these types of events, the heart of the celebrations remains the same. Its such a nice thing for families to do, said Barb Watters, BID director for Menomonee Falls, of attending the local festivities. It really puts you in the Christmas spirit. Parades and tree-lighting ceremonies... As is tradition, two area communitiesGermantown and Menomonee Fallswill be taking the fun to the next level as they turn mere recognition of the season into a full-blown extravaganza. Germantown will hold its parade, festival and tree-lighting the afternoon of Saturday, Nov. 16; however, the day of events will begin that morning with the annual 5K Candy Cane Run/Walk. The race will begin and end in the visitor parking lot of the Germantown Police Department; registration opens at the Germantown Community Library at 10 a.m. (For run/walk fees and further details, contact the Germantown Area Chamber of Chamber at 262-255-1812 or visit www.germantownchamber.org.) The Candy Cane Run/Walk was added a few years ago to involve more Germantown residents and focus on family fitness and fun, explained Lynn Grgich, executive director of the Chamber. Beyond that, the entire day is comprised of outdoor activities so we can take advantage of one of the last opportunities to enjoy mild weather. The paradewith a theme of A Storybook Christmas: The 50th Anniversary of the Germantown Librarywill step off from Pilgrim Road and Sylvan Circle, near the post office, at 2 p.m., and afterwards, activities and a tree lighting ceremony will take place at the library. Festivities will include a visit from Santa; free horse-drawn carriage rides; caroling; hot chocolate and treats; food available for purchase provided by the Kiwanis Clubs; a free child identification booth run by the police department; and the librarys basket sale. The tree-lighting ceremony will begin around 4 p.m. The holiday celebration has grown exponentially since its inception in 1981, Grgich said. The parade was the Chambers first big event, and the tree-lighting has grown from 25 to more than 350 people attending, she said. I urge residents to gather family and friends to enjoy this day before the hectic pace of the holiday season takes over. In Menomonee Falls, it will be double the fun as the village hosts two daysSaturday, Nov. 30 and Sunday, Dec. 1of seasonal activities. New this year, a Christmas Marketwhich will feature open houses and discounts at downtown businesseswill run from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Nov. 30, with some of the businesses carrying the market into the next day. Speciality vendors selling items such as jewelry, artwork, chocolate and crafts will be set up in some of these businesses. (Anyone who is interested in purchasing a vendor booth for $10 can call Watters at 262251-8797.) The Nov. 30 activities will also include Santa Claus at American Legion Post 382, located at N88 W16652 Main St.; horse and wagon rides from noon to 3 p.m. (The ride will take people into the historic neighborhood and a little bit down Main Street, Watters noted); caroling by Accompany of Kids; the Patio Players A Christmas Carol cast dressed in their costumes; and live musical entertainment in some of the stores and on the street. The Dec. 1 activities will kick off with a performance by Accompany of Kids at 3:45 p.m., immediately followed by a tree lighting ceremony in Centennial Plaza. Also, Santa and Mrs. Claus will be around to visit with the kids, Watters added.

The parade will begin one block west of Pilgrim Road on Main Street at 4:30 p.m. The parade is wonderful because its in the evening when it is getting dark so the participants can light up their floats, said Watters. It adds a whole other dimension. Other area parades: The Hartford Christmas Parade will take place on Saturday, Nov. 9 at 3 p.m. The parade will head from N. Main Street to Lincoln Elementary School, 755 S. Rural St. The Sussex tree lighting ceremony is Saturday, Dec. 7 at 5 p.m. at the Village Hall, located at N64 W23760 Main St. in Sussex. The celebration will feature live musical performances and a visit from Santa. Hot chocolate and cookies will be served. Attendees are requested to bring a non-perishable food item for the Sussex Food Pantry. West Bends 61st Annual Christmas Parade will be held Sunday, Dec. 1 at 5 p.m. The parade will weave through downtown West Bend on Main Street. Annual events...

GHS football player helps teammates with Eagle Scout project

By Thomas J. McKillen Managing Editor Clay Knapp's Germantown High School football teammates will benefit from Knapps Eagle Scout project, while several of the players also assisted with the project. For his project, linebacker Knapp re-worked the room used by the team during halftime. The room is located on the lower level of the Datka Stadium concession stand. Knapp, who has been involved with Boy Scouts for approximately 12 years as a member of Troop 175, which is chartered by St. James Church in Menomonee Falls, completed this project to attain the prestigious ranking of Eagle Scout. As he looked at possibilities for the project, Knappwho is also one of the teams captainsinitially had another football-related idea, but decided to focus on making improvements to the halftime room after talking with high school Athletic Director Jack Klebesadel. Starting in early August and going for a two week period, Knapp oversaw 41 volunteersincluding other scouts, scout leaders, football players and friendswho helped refurbish the room. The Germantown Gridiron Club donated enough money to cover all costs while Knapp received a discount from Sherwin-Williams that allowed him to purchase paint and stay within budget. The project was completed on Aug. 20. "The plan was to design a room that would make the space more enjoyable and help build team spirit," Knapp said. "The Eagle project involved cleaning the room out, moving the dry erase boards, repainting the room with new graphics and adding the team values, mission statement, and a generic team banner. We also built a few new benches and fixed a few of the old ones, and we painted them all blue and added the Germantown logo." A hawk design that was already on the wall was preserved and beefed up with the addition of a heavy black outline to it, and the core values for the team will go around the room and will change with each season. Knapp noted that after committing to the project, it took approximately two weeks to finalize all approvals to proceed. The project will complete a goal Knapp sought when he crossed over from Cub Scouts into Boy Scouts. Knapp said at that time it became his goal to secure the Eagle Scout ranking. "This project was a great experience that gave me an opportunity to further build my leadership skills," Knapp said. He added that for a time during his teen years he questioned scouting, but that has changed. "It was actually an amazing part of my life and I hope that other scouts will stick it out like I have," he said. I think my experiences in scouting have helped me earn the leadership position I now have as one of the captains on the football team. This is something I will never forget and I am proud of myself and all the volunteers that made this project happen."

Fresh Tips for Game Day Dips

(Family Features) When family and friends gather together to watch the game, loading up the table with a variety of easy-to-grab, flavorful appetizers is a winning plan. After all, casual food and good times are what game day is all about. In the world of appetizers, dip is king. From savory to sweet, this simple tailgating party addition can take on flavors that span the globe, or that are as American and as beloved as the gridiron game itself. Keep it light: A tailgating scene can seem overwhelming for those who dont want to splurge all their days calories, so be sure to have lots of fresh, crunchy vegetables on hand. Start with your standard dipperslike sliced carrots, broccoli and cucumbersor score big with unique vegetable dipper options like snap peas, asparagus spears and radishes. This recipe for Cucumber Cups creates simple and crunchy bite-sized noshes with a delicious dip of Sabra Hummus in the center. For more game day recipes, visit www.sabra.com. Serve delightful dippers: Potato and tortilla chips go hand-inhand with tailgating festivities, but beyond these standards is a whole world of other dipping options. For a Mediterranean touch, go with flatbread, pita bread or pita chips. Instead of plain old butter rounds, opt for more texture with multi-grain crackers that include raw flax, chia or sesame seeds. Or, serve up a warm batch of buffalo wings with this smoky and spicy recipe for Hummus Buffalo Wing Dip. Offer variety: A large spread of dippers calls for a wide assortment of scrumptious dips. As an alternative to sour cream or cheese-based dipswhich are loaded with fat, preservatives and sodiumserve up an assortment of Sabra Hummus. Hummus offers up the protein, iron and fiber that other dips lack. Incorporate a few of these dip tips into your game day strategy and watch as fans huddle up to fill their plates. Hummus Buffalo Wing Dip 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar 1 teaspoon olive oil 1 tablespoon tomato paste 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 1/4 teaspoon onion powder 1 teaspoon smoked paprika 1 cup Sabra hummus Whisk first seven ingredients together (vinegar through paprika). Add Sabra hummus and combine thoroughly. Cucumber Cups Yield: 16 servings 2 English cucumbers 1 container Sabra hummus 1 teaspoon paprika 1 bunch parsley, finely chopped Directions: 1.) Peel cucumbers and slice lengthwise into 1 1/4-inch pieces. 2.) Using melon baller, carve out seeds to create a vessel, making sure to leave bottom intact. 3.) Using piping bag or small spoon, fill each with hummus, about 1 teaspoon each. 4.) Sprinkle with paprika and finely chopped parsley.

Fatten Up Retirement Savings in 3 Steps

(NewsUSA)For some aging adults, the retirement piggy bank is looking too slim, especially for those unable to max out 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts (IRA) every year. Remember when hard-working seniors were able to look forward to retirement as the chance to travel and savor relaxed family visits? The National Institute on Retirement Security (NIRS) discovered that expectations for the so-called "good life" deflated back in 2011. NIRS research found only 11 percent of consumers assume retirement will include activities like travel, dining out at restaurants, hobbies and overall leisure-time. Most just hope they'll be able to sustain their lifestyle without having to work or rely on others. It's not surprising that research indicates pensioners are better financially prepared for retired life. But the traditional pension has declined over the past 30 years, making it even tougher for middleincome adults to save enough for a stable nest egg. Consider the following advice when saving for retirement to make the most of your golden years. 1.) When it comes to investing, keep it simple. Unless you've got a step up on the market flux, be smart and cautious. For soon-to-be retirees, CNN Money suggests avoiding individual stocks, niche funds and most ETFs (exchange-traded funds). Try to boost returns without assuming added risk by aiming for lower costs and low-expense funds. Straightforward, diversified portfolios will get you farther in the long run. 2.) Utilize investment help. If you're managing your own portfolio and retirement accounts, investment guide tools can be incredibly useful. Services such as USelfDirect.com offer retirement education and investment help for any self-directed investor trying to maximize IRA or 401(k) growth. "My motto is 'athletes do not rest, they build.' But when it comes to preparing for retirement, sometimes you need help to know what to build," explains Marshall Faulk, USelfDirect.com board member and former NFL star, who also created the Marshall Faulk Foundation to help San Diego youth. "Do you know which tax advantaged accounts provide the easiest way to score the most benefits?" Find answers at www.uselfdirect.com or call 800-242-1380. 3.) Save more as income grows. This seems obvious, but when adults receive a salary bump they should factor that into their allotted retirement savings. Resist the temptation to buy that new TV or king-sized bedeven though you deserve itand put more toward the retirement plan or IRA. If you indulge in more luxurious living with every bit of income growth, it'll be harder to maintain that lifestyle during retirement.

Knowing Your Family History is Good for Your Health

(Family Features) A number of celebrities have graced recent headlines by making some drastic decisions about their health, and in turn, raising awareness for the importance of knowing ones family medical history. For instance, according to the Center of Disease Control and Prevention site www.cdc.gov/genomics /resources/diseases/breast_ovarian_cancer/risk_categories.htm, history of breast, cervical or ovarian cancer indicates a strong risk of cancer in some women, and thus proactive and preventative measures, like having a mastectomy or hysterectomy, may be warranted. While facing these decisions can be difficult, Brittney Wilson, a registered nurse, knows first-hand the positive effect that knowing ones family medical history can have on a patients overall health. Since many diseases tend to follow genetic lines, its important to know your roots in order to make better lifestyle choices. For example, if you have a history of common medical conditions like heart disease, high blood pressure or diabetes, you have a higher chance of developing them as well, but prevention is possible. Nurse Wilson offers steps you can take to develop a family medical history record that will help inform your lifestyle choices and serve generations to come. Step 1: Seek answers to lingering questions: You inherit half of your genetic profile from each parent. So, the first step in establishing your family medical history is to seek answers to any doubts or questions you may have about your parents' identity. In todays society, and with the rising rate of children born out of wedlock, this situation is actually more common than you might think. In fact, a recent survey conducted on behalf of Identigene, a DNA paternity test laboratory, concluded that one out of ten Americans has personally been in a situation where a paternity test was needed. In addition, nearly one out of five respondents said that they or a close friend or family member has questioned paternity. However, discovering your paternity can be fairly simple. DNA kits are available at nationwide drug stores and supercenters (www.dnatesting.com), and offer 100 percent accurate and confidential results within a matter of days. Step 2: Talk to your family: The best way to gather information about your medical history is to talk with relatives about their health. An upcoming holiday gathering or family reunion is a great opportunity to start the conversation. Explain why you want to learn more about your family history and ask direct, specific questions to uncover any reoccurring medical issues and when they occurred. Consult existing documents, such as family trees, birth certificates and obituaries, to help obtain this information. From these materials, you can begin identifying potential patterns that should be discussed with a doctor. Step 3: Be proactive about getting healthy: After identifying potential patterns, make a point to discuss them with your primary care doctor at your next annual exam. A medical professional might suggest necessary screening and proactive steps you can take to help stay healthy and avoid certain predisposed conditions in the future. Its also a good idea to continue to update your family medical history record to help future generations navigate their health. Preventative care is the most cost effective and least invasive way to ensure your health and prevent illness. Being aware of your familys medical history is the first step towards making informed choices for a healthier lifestyle.

Do Your Homework Before Selecting a Pet

(Family Features) What is it about a tiny, fluffy kitten that makes them so hard to resist? For many, its their looks. Appearance is one of the primary factors when choosing a feline friend, while dog owners tend to focus on size. A recent survey revealed that 55 percent of cat owners feel appearance is one of the most important qualities when choosing a cat, while 62 percent of dog owners cite size as most important. However, experts encourage people to first consider the animals temperament, health and nutritional needs when selecting a pet. Matching a dog or cats personality with that of your family is essential, said Steve Dale, certified animal behavior consultant and host of Steve Dales Pet World radio show. Before bringing home a new pet, owners should research typical traits of that breed to make sure it matches up with their lifestyle. When bringing home a new pet, here are some important factors to consider: Energy Level: Compare your family's activity level to that of the prospective pet. For example, the Labrador is a very active breed that typically needs lots of training, attention and exercise. This breed works best for active families who have the time to give them the exercise and structure they need. Temperament: Although a dog might look adorable, its breed can reveal a lot about its potential personality. Yorkies, for example, are typically friendly dogs, but can be very shy around strangers and need to be socialized properly. Grooming: Grooming your pet can be an expensive and time consuming chore. For instance, a Persian cat needs to be brushed daily, however a Siamese requires very minimal grooming help from its owner. Nutritional Needs: Different breeds have different, and sometimes complex, nutritional needs. For example, a Maine Coon cat is at risk for certain types of cardiovascular conditions and needs help maintaining a strong heart. A food formulated specifically for them includes antioxidants to help keep their hearts healthy. Its interesting to learn how different dog and cat owners can be when choosing and making decisions for their pets, said Dr. Brent Mayabb, veterinarian and manager of education and development at Royal Canin. Whatever factors come into play, understanding an animal's physical and physiological traits is critical to providing the best care for your four-legged family member.

Seven Small Changes With Big Impact

(Family Features) Ever envy those beautiful homes that seem to get redecorated with every new season? The latest and greatest looks are easy to incorporate if you keep your furnishings neutral and the dcor uncluttered. From there, its just a matter of bringing in a few simple touches that create a big impact. Start with one or two easy projects and you will quickly transform your house into a place youre proud to call home. Transform With Paint: Every interior designer will tell you the quickest way to transform a home is with a fresh coat of paint. Greet guests with a beautiful new door color. It will give your entire home a facelift with very little time and effort. Warm Things Up: The look of hardwood brings warmth to every room in the house. Even kitchen and bathroom spaces can benefit from the addition of wood-look tiles, which are easy to clean, water resistant, and durable, but with the beauty and ambiance of traditional hardwood. Throw rugs are a great way to accent a woodlook floor and are easy to swap out with the change of season or style. Keep it Clean: Kitchens are prime gathering places and just keeping them clean and uncluttered will transform the look and feel of an entire house. Leave just one or two appliances on the countertops, add fresh flowers and hang a pair of colorful kitchen towels to brighten the space. Make a Space Pop: Add a pop of color and texture with new tile. Throw on Some Pillows: Filling a room with furnishings in neutral shades is actually the simplest way to embrace new decorating trends. Give a monochromatic room an instant makeover with pillows, artwork and tchotchkes. Its an inexpensive way to change things up whenever the mood strikes. Be Neighborly: Even if you only have room for a small pot of flowers, make your front porch welcoming. If possible, set out some chairs for neighborly chats, place a small table between for refreshments and add plenty of cushions for comfort. Let There Be Light: Instantly change the look and feel of a room just by changing the lighting. Simply change your bulbs to one offering more natural light or swap out the entire light fixture for instant beauty. Whether you update one room or transform your entire house, these simple changes will turn your home into a sanctuary that truly reflects your own personal style.

Eating Milestones for Your Little One

(Family Features) One of the milestones in a childs life is graduating to solid foods. But how do you know if your little one is ready? And what foods should they be eating? Heres what you need to know. The American Academy of Pediatricians (AAP) says each childs readiness for solid foods depends on his or her rate of development. To determine if your baby is ready, ask yourself a few questions: Can your baby hold his head up with good control? Does he open his mouth when you bring food his way? Can he move food from a spoon into the back of his mouth to enable swallowing? Most children are ready for solid foods when they can accomplish these tasks and have doubled their birth weight. This generally occurs by six months of age; however, your pediatrician knows your child best and should be consulted if you have any questions or concerns. Introducing Solids Parents typically start by introducing soft and pureed foods, expanding their childs diet gradually. The AAP recommends giving one new food at a time and waiting a couple of days before adding another. If any allergic reactions, such as diarrhea, rash or vomiting occur, stop the new food and talk with your pediatrician. Within a few months of introducing solid and pureed foods, a babys diet should include a variety of foods: breast milk and/or formula; meats; fruits and vegetables; eggs and fish. Finger Foods Once your child can sit up and bring hands and objects to mouth, you can offer finger foods. Make sure food is cut into small pieces and easy to swallow. A great option is breakfast cereal, such as Post Sesame Street Cereal, which comes in natural apple and banana flavors, provides two-thirds of a toddlers daily whole grains and is specifically formulated to melt in your childs mouth for safe and easy consumption. Learn more at www.postfoods.com. When buying finger foods, make sure youre providing nutrients toddlers need. I always focus on nutritional benefits when buying foods for my two little ones, says Dr. Roshini Raj, consulting physician for Post Sesame Street Cereal. Specifically, check for whole grains and fortification of nutrients like choline, iron and zinc which help with brain development. Finger foods can include: banana, peach and avocado pieces; cooked and mashed sweet potato; squash and peas; breakfast cereal; scrambled eggs and cooked and finely chopped chicken or fish. No matter what stage of eating your child is in, be patient and offer plenty of nutritious options. Not only are you helping your little one grow now, youre helping him develop good eating habits for the future.

Discover a Better Ride on Wet Roads

(NewsUSA)Bald or poorly maintained tires won't get you very far when it comes to driving on slippery roadways. With improper equipment and maintenance, slick surfaces from rain storms are a major threat to safety on the road. Take control by following this advice from your friends at Firestone Complete Auto Care on ways to prepare yourself and your vehicle for possible wet weather. During wet weather conditions, drive slowly and keep in mind that stopping distances will be longer than usual. Stopping on a wet road can take up to four times the stopping distance of a dry road. Rainwater that mixes with oil or grime on the streets can cause slippery conditions that may result in unexpected skidding. Drive smoothly. To maintain control of your vehicle, try to avoid jerky, abrupt movements when braking, accelerating or turning. Check your tires at least once a month. This includes proper rotation, inflation, repair and replacement. In many areas of the country, the snow and ice of winter leave roads in bad shape. Hitting a pothole can damage your tire and/or the wheel of your vehicle. The sharp impact can cause immediate tire or wheel failure or internal damage that can lead to tire failure weeks later. Keeping your tires properly inflated will help reduce pothole damage and other road hazards. Here's an extra tip about potholes: If you do have to hit a pothole, avoid braking during the impact. Instead, attempt to brake before impact and release just prior to contacting the pothole. Braking during impact sets up the tire and wheel assembly for a solid hit against the edge of the hole. Less severe damage occurs when a tire is rolling, rather than skidding, over the pothole. Save yourself money on expensive repairs by following these tips to help keep your vehicle running in tip-top shape.
