The seven Jacuzzi brothers
from Pomone, Italy, have an im-
pressive list of inventions. They
include the toothpick propeller,

by the Allies and honored in
the Smithsonian’s National Air
& Space Museum), and the jet
injector pump for deep wells.
Their most famous invention

Two communities, one event
Combat camera
Soldier reaches
new heights
By Sgt. 1st Class Brent Powell
Defense Media Activity
EAST POINT, Ga. -- Many people set
high goals for themselves, but one Army
Reserve Soldier set his goals higher than
most, aiming at an achievement that
would take him more than 12,500 feet
above the ground.
Army Reserve Staff Sgt. Justin P. Mo-
relli, a combat cameraman assigned to
982nd Combat Camera Company, 335th
Signal Command (Theater), turned his
goals into reality recently when he be-
the coveted Freefall Parachutist Badge
after successfully completing the four-
week military freefall course in Yuma,
Ariz.
To earn the badge, a service member
complete all necessary ground training,
and then complete all of the course re-
quired freefall jumps, which include
night operations, jumps with full combat
equipment, and jumps using an oxygen
system.

nel,” Morelli said. “But as I started to
meet people and talk to them about it, I
never met anyone who had actually been
through the course. So about a year ago,
I dug deeper into the regulations and be-
gan making a case that we need to start a
freefall program.”
The next step in the process was con-
vincing his command to approve the
idea. He also had to reserve a seat in the
school and ensure funding was available
for it. But before he could attend the
course, he had to pass several in-depth
physicals.
For one of the physicals, Morelli had
to travel to Fort Rucker, Ala., and spend
time in a hyperbaric pressure chamber to
ensure he could withstand the pressure
and oxygen changes at high altitudes.
He also had to travel to Fort Benning
Halloween is just around the corner. It’s time for carving jack-o’-lanterns, drinking

VICENZA --The eighth annual Meet the

The event, an informal fair that hosts

families a chance to learn about the plac-
es where they live.
More than 121 towns have been invit-
ed this year, said Anna Ciccotti, United
States Army Garrison Italy communi-
pouring in.
“I am very excited to organize this
event, which is one of the most rewarding
traditions we have here on post. Based on
the RSVPs we’ve received, it seems to
be a very popular event among the Ital-
ian communities and mayors. It is also a
chance for the Americans living here to
they’re living.
“Meet the Mayors brings the two com-
munities together and gives Italian locals
an opportunity to share their cultural
heritage with the military community,”
Ciccotti added. “Mayors and their repre-
sentatives are proud to come and excit-
ed to share their towns and tips to help
American families get to know the area.”
Tables with displays will be set up in
the conference room for visitors to pe-
ruse. Each will feature the local festi-
vals, museums, historic sites, markets
and shops, products, typical wines and
regional foods. At previous events, rep-
resentatives have brought giveaways,
maps, brochures and pamphlets.
