Marines Versus Air Guardsmen at Stewart

NEW WINDSOR, NY. 2 May 2009. -- Senior Airman Darryl Reeves, defends against Staff Sgt. Michael Winfield's drive to the basket in the 105th Airlift Wing First Six Enlisted Council's, 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament held on May 2 at Stewart Air National Guard Base.
Fifty-five members of the Stewart military community-- which includes members of the Air National Guard and the United States Marine Corps Reserve's Aerial Refueler Transport Squadron 452 ( VMGR-452) participated in the games held in the New Windsor Recreational Facility on Saturday afternoon of the May Unit Training Assembly.

Air Guardsmen and Marines vied for base bragging rights in a double elimination competition.

The First Six Enlisted Council--a joint Air Guard and Marine group-- created the 3-on-3 Tournament to raise morale, strengthen unit camaraderie and to jumpstart fitness.

�I found this event to be very exciting and a healthy challenge and was happy to see so many us come out and participate. I believe if this tournament was a consistent part of future drill weekends it would improve the fitness of members. I would surely take part in this event whenever available� Said Staff Sgt. Michael D. Winfield, 105 LRS.

The overall winners of the tournament were the Marines of MAG49-Detachment B.

�It was nice to see people having fun and exchanging contact information. Having an outing like this has served its purpose. There will definitely be more events like this to come� added Tech. Sgt. Jose Chevere, President of the First Six Enlisted Council.
