Southern Maryland veteran reflects on Navy service on 100th birthday

When Charlie Simms first drove down to St. Mary’s County on his motorcycle in 1949, he had to stop at Hole in the Wall, a local bar, to ask for directions. The now traffic-congested Three Notch Road was a simple dirt path at the time, and Naval Air Station Patuxent River was one of the only landmarks for miles. Attendees at Hole in the Wall bar told Simms to “just keep driving.” Simms, who turned 100 last month, spent 23 years in the Navy. The Ridge resident first enlisted at the end of World War II when he was 17 and one of five children in Oklahoma. His son, Glen Simms, said his father enlisted to get “three meals a day and clothes.” “I stayed in the Navy” when the war ended, Charlie said. “I didn’t want to go back to Oklahoma. The Navy was good to me.” While stationed in Jacksonville, Florida, Charlie kept an eye on German prisoners. Years later, when he was flying the Berlin airlift, he reconnected with one of the prisoners at a restaurant. Over the years, he was stationed in Florida, Tennessee, California, Texas and Washington, D.C. The last location was where he met

St. Mary’s health officer announces departure after 14 years

In her 14 years as health officer for the St. Mary’s County Health Department, Dr. Meena Brewster experienced a lot of firsts. From addressing the COVID-19 pandemic to building the Healthy St. Mary’s Partnership and school-based health centers, Brewster said her focus always came back to serving the community and improving access to health and wellness resources. “I really wanted an opportunity to be on the front lines and to have direct impact and to really get to know the people that we’re serving and build those partnerships that are so key,” she said. Early next month, Brewster will be leaving the role, and while she has yet to announce her next position, she is looking forward to starting the next chapter of her public health career. “Fourteen years is a long time for any person’s life, and St. Mary’s has certainly been such a significant component of my life,” she said. “I feel really good about what we’ve built together as a community and as a health department team and our partnerships.” While public health focuses on responding to a community’s needs, the COVID-19 pandemic posed unique challenges for Brewster and other county leaders. “We really pulled together as
