Question: With empty buildings here at Point Mugu, why can’t one be turned into a pharmacy forspouses and dependants for refillable medicines only? Wouldn’t it be so much easier for a mother of asick child in need of a refillable prescription to make a quick drive or walk to a local location instead ofdriving all the way over to Port Hueneme?

Answer: To best answer your question, I consulted with Capt. Dick Turner, officer in charge of theNaval Branch Health Clinic, Port Hueneme and Point Mugu. He administers Pharmacy Services, alongwith all of the other medical services here at Naval Base Ventura County.We are pleased to note that pharmacy refill pick-up services are currently available at the Point

Mugu Branch Clinic from 7:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Monday through Friday. When using the telephonerefill line (866-286-8249), you can select the Point Mugu pick-up site option and save a trip to the PortHueneme pharmacy.For additional information on pharmacy services provided at the Point Mugu clinic, you can call the

Port Hueneme pharmacy at 982-6450.

Why isn’t there a pharmacy at Point Mugu? There is!

On Aug. 3, Aircraft 600, the E-2CHawkeye on static display at Naval BaseVentura County (NBVC), Point Mugu,was the latest subject of an “extrememakeover.”Having not been painted in over a year,

and with the 2010 NBVC Air Show atPoint Mugu quickly approaching, it wastime to put theHawkeye community’s bestfoot forward.Aviation StructuralMechanic 2ndClass

Jason Metcalfe, leading petty officer ofVAW-112’s Corrosion Control work cen-ter, noticed the poor material conditionof the aircraft. He organized a workingparty to prepare the aircraft for the 100,000people anticipated to attend the show.Metcalfe, accompanied by Aviation

Structural Mechanic 3rd Class Adam

Marshall, AMAN Joshua Pierce andAMANTia Squires, arrived at work fourhours early and spent nine hours repaint-ing the aircraft. The crew washed the air-craft and repainted the propellers and theradar dome, items that had weathered theworst.The combined efforts of these four

Golden Hawks preserved the beauty ofAircraft 600 and allowed the base toproudly show her off during the two-dayevent. In recognition of their initiative,pride and hardwork that will last for yearsto come, all four Sailors received lettersof commendation from their commandingofficer.

For the second year in a row, the NavalBase Ventura County Personnel SupportDetachment (PSD) has won the CertifiedPipeline Movers Award, given annuallyby the Chief of Navy Personnel.“This is a testament to the dedication

and hardwork of the civilians andmilitarypersonnel of PSD,” said Personnel Spe-cialist Chief OscarRamos, whowas actingdirector of the PSD when the certificate

was announced.“We received outstanding ratings in ev-

ery category,” he added.The award came after an inspection into

howwell the base PSD handled the move-ment of transient personnel – those un-dergoing a permanent change of stationmove, those beingmoved because of med-ical concerns, personnel on temporaryduty and students on base.

Officially, the award recognizes com-mands for exceptionallymoving personnelthrough the transient, patient, prisoner,holdee, student and limited duty pipe-lines.Bottom line: Smoothly and efficiently,

NBVC got people where they needed tobe.The base PSD has about 40 employ-

ees.

Doyou have a career path?Do youwantone?Military spouse career development is

a common topic of discussion. There aremany military spouses who have “donethe math” and determined that the costof child care, wardrobe, commuting andother costs associated with working out-side the home outweigh the income po-tential. Others feel the best decision fortheir family in the midst of the manychanges and challenges of military serviceis for the spouse to be home for the fam-ily. I applaud both of these decisions.And I applaud themilitary spouse, with

or without children, who desires to builda career. For many spouses this can bedifficult. Have you started a degree oreducational program only for your servicemember to be transferred before comple-tion? Have you landed that great job withawesome advancement potential only toleave it because of orders? Yup, it’s a chal-lenge.I wrote about MyCAA – My Career

Advancement Account – a program

through the Department of Defense toprovide military spouses educational op-portunities and funding ($6,000) towarda “portable career.”Youmay be aware thatthe program was shut down in Februarydue to the massive response to this op-portunity. The DoD cited availability offunds and the need to revise the programas the reason.The DoD recently announced the new

program. MyCAA is now resuming op-erations with a much more limited scope.For full details, please log on to https://www.militaryonesource.com/MOS/Find-Information/Category/MilitarySpouseC-areerAdvancementAccounts.aspx.In summary, the program is now open

to pay grades E1-E5,W1-W2 andO1-O2.Themaximum benefit is $4,000 with a fis-cal year cap of $2,000; some waivers maybe granted. Spouses must finish the pro-gram of study within three years, andprograms are now limited to associatedegrees, certifications and licensures.While these new guidelines are “less”

than the former program and limited in

candidates, it remains an opportunity forspouses to work toward certain careerpaths. Please check out the program foryour career pursuits.I know the program changes affectmany

spouses currently enrolled or planning toenroll under formerMyCAA parameters.If I may offer one opinion: The fact thatthe program was so overwhelmed withresponse is a clear indication of the greatneed for this program.

I would like to encourage you to contactyour state and federal officials to let themknow how important this program wasfor you and your family and the directimpact of the new guidelines.I would also like to encourage you to

persevere, as only military spouses can.Don’t give up your career or educationalgoals because this program may not beavailable to you. There are other ways toachieve that degree or career pursuit. Yourbase Navy College, Fleet and Family Sup-port Center andMilitary One Source aregreat places to start your search for botheducation programs and financial resourc-es.You may know I am a huge supporter

of education. Dream your dreams and goafter them.Only you can ultimately hold you back.

Time to soar!

If you’re packing your pantry forschool-day meals and munchies, the De-fense Commissary Agency’s worldwidecase lot sale in September can help youdo so with savings of up to 50 percent ormore.“Fall often brings lots of big expenses

for back-to-school youth as well as adultsreturning to college classes,” said DeCAActing Director and CEO Thomas E.Milks. “The September case lot sale canhelp trim your grocery budget so you’llhave more to spend on school-relatedpurchases.”There are 330 items available for the

sale this year, and store staffs decide whichitems they will feature in their sales. Theyalso supplement these items with localdirect-store-delivery items such as soda,chips and baked goods, said CharlieDowlen, DeCA promotions manager.Selections range from canned goods,

beverages, paper products, cleaning andlaundry products and pet supplies to pro-duce, fresh meat and seafood, and bakeryproducts.“Case lot sales provide a great oppor-

tunity to stock up at savings beyond ournormal 30 percent or more,” saidDowlen.“More than half of the items are sold in‘club pack’ product packages similar tothe oversized packages or multiple prod-ucts bundled together that are found atcommercial warehouse club outlets.”

Commissary’scase lot sale iscoming up

Military commissaries have not beenaffected thus far by the massive WrightCounty Egg voluntary recall, accordingto the Defense Commissary Agency’s di-rector of health and safety.“Although our stores may carry some

of the brands such as Hillandale and Sun-shine that were mentioned in the initialAug. 13 recall action, the cartons of eggssold in military stores are not linked tosalmonella contamination,” said Col. Da-vid R. Schuckenbrock, who is responsiblefor addressing DeCA’s food safety issues.“We are working closely with our suppli-ers to ensure that if the recall expands andwe are affected, we will promptly pull therecalled product off the shelves and no-tify our customers.”If the egg recall expands to commissar-

ies, DeCA will update customers withsigns in the stores, posts on the agency’sFacebook site at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Defense-Commissary-Agency/136880189673357?ref=ts, and throughfood safety alerts posted to http://www.commissaries.com.You can access this information by click-

ing the “Recent Food Alerts and ProductRecalls” link on DeCA’s homepage.To access general food safety informa-

tion on the website, choose the “News &Info” tab and select “Food Safety” fromthe dropdown box.The initial Wright County Egg recall

announcement involved more than 228million shell eggs. On Aug. 18, the recallexpanded to more than 380 million eggs.Salmonella is an organism that can

cause serious, and sometimes fatal, infec-tions in young children, frail or elderlypeople and others with weakened immunesystems. Healthy persons infected withsalmonella often experience fever, diar-rhea, nausea, vomiting and abdominalpain. In rare circumstances, infection withsalmonella can result in the organism get-ting into the bloodstream and producingmore severe illnesses such as arterial infec-tions, endocarditis or arthritis.TheFDAwants consumers to know that

thorough cooking is perhaps the mostimportant step in making sure eggs aresafe. Consumers should remember the fol-lowing when cooking eggs:• Cook eggs until both the yoke and the

white are firm. Scrambled eggs should notbe runny.• Casseroles and other dishes containing

eggs should be cooked to 160°F (72°C).Use a food thermometer to be sure.

Commissaries not affected by recall

The case lot sale at the Naval BaseVentura County Port Hueneme Com-missary is scheduled for Sept. 16-19.Always checkwith the commissary fordate changes or cancellations. Case lotsales may be canceled due to weatheror other events beyond the commis-sary’s control. Commissaries are notresponsible for early sellout of itemsduring case lot sales due to high cus-tomer volume or limited product avail-ability.

A 9-year-old who says his favorite sportis soccer because it involves a lot of run-ning won the 1K children’s fun run, heldin conjunction with the Heat of Summer5K on Thursday, Aug. 19, at Naval BaseVentura County, Point Mugu.Nicholas Hennemann, the son of San-

ta and Equipment Operator 1st ClassThomas Hennemann of Naval MobileConstruction Battalion 3, came in first outof about 50 youngsters competing.His time was 4 minutes, 53 seconds.“He loves to run,” Santa Hennemann

said. “He’s just like his dad — he lovesrunning as part of his PT.”Runners ranged in age from 4 to 13.“Once a year, we hold a run for the

kids,” explained Annabelle Ferrer of Mo-rale,Welfare and Recreation, which spon-sored both this run and the 5K for adults.“It’s perfect for family fitness.”Fifty-two runners competed in the 5K,

with Builder 2nd Class Erik Pimental ofNMCB 4 coming in first at a time of 19minutes, 13 seconds.Pimental had recently returned from an

eight-month deployment to Afghanistan,where most of the running he’d done wason a treadmill— at night, to beat the 130-degree daytime temperatures.

“I did run a 5K inKuwait the day beforewe left and I came in first,” he said. “Itwas a run commemorating the CoastGuard’s 200th birthday.”The next MWR fun run is the Energy

In late 2009, the Total Force StrategyandManagement Department, in concertwith its Civilian EmployeeAssistance Pro-gram (CEAP), launched a plan to traineach member of the workforce — for theNaval AirWarfare CenterWeapons Divi-sion, NAVFAC (PublicWorks), andCom-mander Navy Region SouthWest organi-zations — on suicide awareness andprevention. The three main messages ofthe training were:• We all must work together to discon-

tinue the rise in suicides within theDepart-ment of Navy.

• Be aware of your coworkers’ states ofmind.• Help is readily available.The reason for the training was that

suicides in the Department of Navy —among a combination of military, civilian,and contractor personnel— have been onthe rise in the last few years. TheNavy hasreported 46ActiveDuty/Selective Reservesuicides for 2009, and 18 for the first halfof 2010.Civilian statistics are not as current. In

2007, California reported 2,871 suicides,more than 10 percent of the U.S. total of27,509. There are nearly 1 million suicideattempts in the U.S. each year.The Department of Navy’s goal is not

just to have a decline in suicides, but rath-er to have zero suicides in the future.Since many suicides are preventable, at-

tendees were provided information onpossible signs that coworkers may be de-pressed, need help, and/or may actuallybe contemplating suicide.The warning signs that we should pay

particular attention to are: a prior suicideattempt, talking about suicide andmakinga plan, giving away prized possessions,preoccupationwith death, signs of depres-sion, hopelessness and anxiety, and in-creased drug and alcohol use.Some estimate as many as 80 percent of

those thinking about suicide desire recog-nition of their emotional pain and want

September marks a change in seasonsfrom summer to fall as our days getshorter, temperatures start to cool sig-nificantly and the family routine chang-es as kids go back to school. Yet, when-ever I contemplate the changing of theseason, my focus isn’t so much onchange as it is on what God promisedwould remain the same.The book of Genesis says that when

Noah and his family got off the ark,after the flood waters had receded, Godmade them a promise. Most people fa-miliar with the story would probablythink of the rainbow as the seal ofGod’s promise that He would neveragain destroy the whole earth with aflood. But even before that, God madethis promise recorded for us in Genesis8:22, “As long as the earth endures,seedtime and harvest, cold and heat,summer and winter, day and night willnever cease.”Thousands of years have passed since

God made that promise, and the faith-ful cycle of day and night and the chang-ing of the seasons still testify to thefaithfulness of God.There’s much I still have to learn

about God, and I certainly don’t alwaysunderstand the reason for many of Hisactions, but one thing I know for cer-tain: God is faithful! He keeps Hispromises. His Word can be counted onto be true and reliable.

It’s important, therefore, to read thispromise once again and notice the veryimportant phrase, “As long as the earthremains.”Besides the fact that time on this earth

is limited for all of us, God’s Word alsotells us that one day this earth will end.“Then I saw a new heaven and a newearth, for the first heaven and the firstearth had passed away.…” (Revelation21:1).The point is, we can get so preoccu-

pied with the changing seasons of thislife that we don’t consider or preparefor the eternity God has promised us.Have you seriously considered what willhappen when your time on earth andearth’s time are up?I hope, as it is for me, that this change

of seasons will also be a reminder toyou of God’s faithfulness, and an en-couragement to claim His greatestpromise of all, “… whoever comes toMe I will never cast out” (John 6:37).

Change of seasons a time to reflect on God’s promise

What each of us can do to help prevent suicide

A Ventura County Walk to PreventSuicide will take place Saturday, Sept.25, at Constitution Park in Camarillo,located at Carmen Drive and PaseoCamarillo, north of Highway 101.Check-in starts at 8 a.m., and thewalk begins at 9 a.m. Visit www.outofthedarkness.org to register.

Crowded school parking lots and cross-ing guards on the corner signal that chil-dren are heading back to school.Local schools and law enforcement are

doing their best to keep children safe ontheir way to and from school. Here aresome safety tips from theAmericanAcad-emy of Pediatrics for parents to also pro-mote safe school commutes:

School bus

• Wait for the bus to stop before ap-proaching it from the curb.• Do not move around on the bus.• Check to see that no other traffic is

coming before crossing the street.• Make sure to always remain in clear

view of the bus driver.• Always board and exit the bus at loca-

tions that provide safe access to the busor to the school building.

Car

• All passengers should wear a seat beltand/or an age- and size-appropriate carsafety seat or booster seat.• Your child should ride in a car safety

seat with a harness as long as possible andthen ride in a belt-positioning booster seat.Your child is ready for a booster seat whenshe has reached the top weight or heightallowed for her seat, her shoulders areabove the top harness slots, or her earshave reached the top of the seat.• Your child should ride in a belt-posi-

tioning booster seat until the vehicle’s seatbelt fits properly, usually when the childreaches about 4-foot-9 and is between 8to 12 years of age. This means that thechild is tall enough to sit against the ve-hicle seat back with her legs bent at theknees and feet hanging down and theshoulder belt lies across the middle of thechest and shoulder, not the neck or throat;the lap belt is low and snug across thethighs, and not the stomach.• All children under 13 years of age

should ride in the rear seat of vehicles. Ifyou must drive more children than can fit

in the rear seat (when carpooling, for ex-ample), move the front-seat passenger’sseat as far back as possible.

Bike

• Always wear a bicycle helmet, nomat-ter how short or long the ride.• Ride on the right, in the same direction

as auto traffic.• Use appropriate hand signals.• Respect traffic lights and stop signs.

• Wear brightly colored clothing to in-crease visibility.• Know the “rules of the road.” www.

aap.org/family/bicycle.htm

Walking to School

• Make sure your child’s walk to aschool is a safe route with well-trainedadult crossing guards at every intersec-tion.• Be realistic about your child’s pe-

destrian skills. Because small childrenare impulsive and less cautious aroundtraffic, carefully consider whether or notyour child is ready to walk to schoolwithout adult supervision.• In neighborhoods with higher levels

of traffic, consider starting a “walkingschool bus,” in which an adult accom-panies a group of neighborhood chil-dren walking to school.

— For any K-12 education related questions,please contact the NBVC school liaisonofficer at 989-5211 or monica.james@navy.mil

focus on what works. Training is the timeto figure out what nutrition (gel, candy,etc.) works to give you extra carbohydratesto fuel your run. You should bewell versedin taking on fluids — that is, drinkingwhile running or walking. One of the nicethings about a race is the provision ofwater and/or sports drink. This will allowyou to focus solely on your run withoutthe extra burden of carrying water.The week prior to the race is important.

Look at your schedule and do not plananything that will keep you out late atnight. Rest, relax and eat healthfully. Fo-cus on carbohydrates as the main sourceof your calories.Many people believe thatcarbohydrate loading includes “pigging

out”on pasta and bread.While you shouldbe getting plenty of carbohydrates to fuelyour run, overeating is not necessary andmay have an undesirable effect— stomachache, feeling bloated, etc. You want to ar-rive at the race feeling fit, energetic and

ready to go!The night before the race, lay out a “run-

ning person.” Get all the clothes you aregoing to wear on race day (shorts, shoes,shirt, socks, etc.) and have them ready toslip on quickly. Race day is not the timeto try something new! Do not buy a newrunning outfit – it could chafe or otherwisebe uncomfortable. Eat a normal breakfast,something you know will not upset yourstomach or cause difficulty during the run.It is normal to feel both nervous and ex-cited on race day. Let that energy pushyou to achieve something remarkable!One of the most common race mistakes

is going out too fast. When the gun goesoff, many people will take off like a shot.Resist the temptation to go with them orto try to beat someone.Run your own race! Get into your pace

and stay with it.Once you reach 10 miles, you will be

able to judge how you are doing. If youstill feel energetic, pick up the pace for thelast three miles – you will be amazed athow many people you pass!I look forward to seeing you on the

course!Walking program

It’s not often that a group of Seabeesexperiences the excitement of a poten-tially life-threatening situation, but that’sexactly what happened on July 28 at For-ward Operation Base Dwyer, Afghani-stan.A contracted cargo plane overshot the

runway, crashed through the safety bermand sent a group of five equipment op-erators and one construction mechanicfrom Naval Mobile Construction Battal-ion 5 into immediate response mode.Thankfully, none of the six passengers

on the plane was seriously injured. It didtake the quick wits and training of thosesix Seabees to safely remove the passengersfrom the aircraft, move them to a safe lo-cation and perform immediate first aiduntil the crash rescue personnel arrivedon scene.Equipment Operator Constructionman

Jamie Lengner was the first to see theplane as it hit the berm.“I caught it out of the corner of my eye,

just a bunch of dust and a plane where itshouldn’t be,” said Lengner.The Seabee crew working next to the

crash site included Lengner, EquipmentOperator 2nd Class Padraig Martin,Equipment Operator 3rd Class (SCW)Christopher Herrick, Equipment Opera-tor 3rd Class Joseph Flint, EquipmentOperator 3rdClassGaryCollins andCon-structionMechanic 3rdClassDevinDunn.They were the first responders to thecrash.The crew of six on the plane, which was

transporting fresh fruits and dairy prod-ucts, were quickly assisted out of thewreckage byMartin and the other Seabees.Martin immediately had Dunn grab acombat lifesaver bag from the Field CrewMedium Tactical Vehicle Replacement(MTVR) so he could administer first aidto the banged-up flight crew.The first step was to drain the six tons

of jet fuel that was still in the fuel tanks.Then, with the tanks empty, the plane wasready for transport.After a failed attempt to drag the whole

plane to a clearing away from the runwayusing aD5 andD7 dozer, the decision wasmade to tear the plane into several small-er pieces. Herrick skillfully operated aKomatsu excavator to separate the tailsection and both wings from the fuselage.

The separate pieces were now able to bemoved from the runway by Dunn andFlint using an MTVR Cargo.“I got to do something with an excava-

tor that I will probably never be able todo again,” Herrick said.The main cabin of the plane, also the

heaviest section, was last to be moved.This was a combined effort between theSeabees D7 dozer providing the pullingpower and theMarines D5 dozer provid-ing the pushing power. Together the twodozers slowly inched the broken fuselageto its final resting place. All that was leftnowwas to finish cleaning up the scattereddebris, which again was an all-hands com-bined effort between the Seabees and theMarines. Finally, the obstruction was re-moved, and the runway could be clearedfor incoming aircraft.Although the plane crash turned out to

be minor, with no serious injuries or dam-age to camp facilities, the ability of Sea-bees to step up and tackle the situationwith efficiency and safety allowed for therunway to reopen the same day as thecrash.Sacrificing a day’s worth of work on a

project with deadlines, the Seabees con-tributed to a greater mission that affected

an untold amount of service members.The crew that contributed their time,

working through lunch and even afterworking hours, couldn’t have been moreenthusiastic about the whole day.Flint probably said it best: “Who

wouldn’t jump at any opportunity that got

them away from filling Hescos for aday?”Chief Construction Mechanic (SCW/

PJ) Charles Courchesne was the onsiteliaison between the Seabees and Marinesduring the salvage efforts and was quotedas saying, “Responding to this type of

disaster is something we always train for,but hope to never use.However, the selflessactions, quick thinking and tremendousefforts that these six troops displayed to-day are exactly what epitomizes the Seabeecan-do spirit, and I amproud to serve witheach one of them.”

It’s been less than a year since Lt. Cmdr.Eric Hahn of the Naval Facilities Engi-neering Command/Engineering ServiceCenter tried out the boxing facility behindthe Beehive Gym at Naval Base VenturaCounty, Port Hueneme.Since then, he’s lost 30 pounds and

turned his two sons into young boxers.Nowall three of them—Hahn, 12-year-

old Austin and 9-year-old Andrew— canbe found at the boxing center, jumpingrope, punching the bags and sparring.Hahn’s determination and persistence

has earned him Athlete of the Monthhonors for August byMorale,Welfare andRecreation.“I’d heard about the facility and was

curious,” Hahn explained. “I got startedand never stopped.“What attractedme to this type of train-

ing is that it’s not the same old PT routine,and it’s an incredibly effective workoutboth physically andmentally. It conditionsthe body and it promotes mental concen-tration.”He told the boys about his new hobby,

and they joined him.“I’m definitely enjoying this really

unique opportunity to spend time withthem, to train with them,”he said. “It wasexciting for them to train in the same place

as the Navy boxing team. That gets us allpumped.”Today, Andrew says boxing is his favor-

ite sport, and Austin says he might want

to be a professional boxer someday.“It’s a likely candidate,” Austin says.Kristin Hahn says she likes the fact that

her sons, who also play soccer and swim,

are getting a wide variety of training ex-periences.“They’re learning self-discipline, and

completing a workout gives them a senseof accomplishment,”she said. “This is alsogiving them a whole-body workout.”She says boxing is teaching the boys as-

sertiveness, not aggressiveness.“It’s been appropriate,” she says.NBVC is home to the Navy Boxing

Championships each year and the ArmedForces Boxing Championships every fouryears. The best boxers in the military havetrained at the center.Kevin Ludwig of MWR, who helps or-

ganize the boxingmatches, is proud of thefacility.“It’s got an old, grizzled, World War

II-era typical boxing feel to it,” he said.“It’s historical.”Many Navy installations have only a

speed bag and punching bag, he said.“No one else has anything like this.”

High school students from around thecountry attended a weeklong camp spon-sored by the Society of AmericanMilitaryEngineers (SAME) and hosted at NavalConstruction Training Center (NCTC),Port Hueneme.The annual camp started Aug. 1 and

involved various activities designed to fa-miliarize the young engineers in trainingwith various engineering applications.Students performed hands-on construc-tion and engineering activities under thesupervision and guidance of SAMEmem-bers and military service members.ConstructionMechanic 1st Class (SCW/

PJ) Wayne Atwood was a squad leaderand shared his expectations for theweek.“I am hoping to share my personal and

military experience with the students andshow them it’s about being part of a team,completing the mission and having funwith it,” he said.The SAME/Seabee Engineering and

Construction Camp is in its eighth year.The program could not be successful with-

out the support of the National SAMEleadership, theNational SAMEK-12Out-reach Committee, the SAME Post mem-bers, the U.S. Navy and its leadership.The engineering activities included de-

signing high compressive strength concretebeams, cardboard boats that were racedin the base pool and constructing popsiclestick bridges capable of carrying high loadcapacities. In addition to these main ac-tivities, there were numerous recreationalactivities to bolster the experience for thecampers.

The NCTC SAME coordinators, Lt.JamesMcKlevie and Ensign Dale Lester,were responsible for the training and well-being of 50 students ranging in age from15 to 17.

“I am honored to have been selected asthe OIC (officer in charge) for the campand am greatly looking forward to inter-acting with the students and doing whatI can to showcase the benefits of being anengineer serving in the military,” statedMcKelvie.Assistant Officer in Charge Lester

shared the same sentiment.“I enjoy the opportunity to work with

the students and mentor them about theNavy and engineering,” Lester said.The final day of the camp was spent

enjoying athletic competitions and a pic-nic at Point Mugu Beach.In fact, the final day is always consid-

ered to be the saddest day because thestudents and counselors have to face thereality that it will be another year beforethey can again descend upon NCTC PortHueneme.

recognize the primary threats that haven’tchanged: failure to use safety equipmentlike seatbelts andmotorcycle helmets, driv-ing while impaired or fatigued, and speed-ing. Exercise the appropriate safety mea-sures. They are only a decision away.Buckle-up, gear-up and adjust your driv-ing pr riding to changing conditions andyour abilities.Finally, if you decide to drink, assign a

designated driver.Looking ahead, the fall season is quick-

ly approaching. New risks such as chang-ing weather, reduced hours of visibilityand schools returning to session will re-quire our increased awareness. Eventhough the summertime threats begin tofade as we transition into fall, the number

one threat remains the same: vehicle ac-cidents. All of us must continue to bevigilant regardless of the time of year.So be safe over the long weekend, rest

up and come back to work refreshed. Let’swork together to protect ourmost valuableresources: America’s Sailors, civilians andtheir families.

Safety takes top priority over Labor DayWeekendCommand Master Chief (AW/SW)Dominick Torchia of the NavalSafety Center listens intently assafety specialist Mike Satterfieldasks a question during Torchia’sAug. 19 visit to Naval Base VenturaCounty. TorchiaandSafetyManagerGeorge Egeler met with the 25safety specialists from differentcommands on base, discussingcurrent issues, primarilymotorcyclesafety. Bottom line: “We need tobe more proactive in telling peopleabout safety issues,” Torchia said.“We also need to make sure weidentify the issues. We don’t wantthe case where someone gets hitand no one reports it, then threeyears later the same thing happens,and someone dies. That’s not whatwe want.”

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)has been receiving greater attention inrecent years as reports of the high inci-dence of the disorder among Soldiersreturning from deployment in Iraq hasincreased awareness and research.However, Soldiers are not the only peo-

ple who can develop PTSD. The disorderaffects approximately 8 percent of theU.S.population, with between a quarter andone-third of people who experience a sig-nificant trauma developing PTSD.Significant trauma is considered any

event that is dangerous or upsetting, suchas an assault or violent attack, combat,natural disaster or vehicle crash.Symptoms of PTSD, which can occur

anytime after the event, include re-expe-riencing the event, such as having recur-ring nightmares, avoiding reminders of theevent, being less responsive — includingfeeling detached and less interested in life

activities — and increased arousal, suchas having angry outbursts or difficultysleeping.The good news is if you or someone you

know has been experiencing symptomssuch as those described above, treatmentis available.TheNaval AirWarfare CenterWeapons

The two Naval OperationalSupport Centers (NAVOPSPT-CEN) at Naval Base VenturaCounty (NBVC) put on a specialday honoring the base’s returningheroes, their families and thefamilies of those still on deploy-ment.Family Readiness andWarrior

Recognition Day, held at NBVCPort Hueneme on Aug. 14, start-ed with a ceremony at NeedhamTheater. Recently returning Sail-ors and their families, as well asthe families of those deployed,were recognized and honored.In all, about 1,600 attended all

or part of the day’s activities.“These brave men and women

are the embodiment of honor,courage, and commitment,” saidCommand Master Chief (SW)Terry Delacruz, NAVOPSPT-CEN Port Hueneme. “I am hon-ored to have this opportunity tohonor them and their families.”Welcome remarks were given

by Capt. Richard Neely, com-manding officer, NAVOPSPT-CEN Port Hueneme, and guestspeakers followed.Capt. JimMcHugh, command-

ing officer, NBVC, remarked thatwhen you recruit a Sailor, youretain a family. He applauded theservice members and their fami-lies for their service and sup-port.“We are fortunate to have

strong men and women such asyourselves,” saidMcHugh, “I re-ally thank you.”The mayor of Port Hueneme,

Norman E. Griffaw, a formerequipment operator 2nd classwith NavalMobile ConstructionBattalion 3, said he understoodthe hardships that Sailors andtheir families go through andwanted them to know he is grate-ful of their sacrifices.“It is because of you that I can

stand up here and speak freely,”he said.Rear Adm. Sandy Daniels,

deputy commander, Joint Func-tional Component Command forSpace, expressed her gratitude to

the Sailors and families and en-couraged them to take advantageof the many support servicesavailable.“We thank you for the incred-

ible service and sacrifice youmake,” said Daniels.When Reserve Force Master

Chief (FMF) Ronney A. Wrighttook the stage, he reminded ev-eryone in the theater of theircommitment and pride by havingConstruction Electrician’s MateSenior Chief (SCW/SW) BillyHieb, 31st Seabee ReadinessGroup, lead everyone in recitingthe Sailors Creed.Wright said taking care of our

Sailors and families is not a “feel-good” issue.“It is the right thing to do, but

it is more than that,” he said.“Caring for our warriors andtheir families is a readiness issue.When everything at home is tak-en care of, Sailors can focus 100percent on the mission.”

After a moment of silence forfallen heroes, Executive OfficersLt. Cmdr. Russ Dicks, NAVOP-SPTCENPort Hueneme, and Lt.Matt Link, NAVOPSPTCEN

PointMugu, called the Sailors tothe stage. As each Sailor’s namewas read, spouses and familieswere personally thanked by allthe distinguished guests, includ-

ing Cmdr. Rod Woodard, com-manding officer, and CommandSenior Chief (AW)Danielle Clev-idence, NAVOPSPTCEN PointMugu, and Command MasterChief (SCW/SW) Dean Joyce,NBVC.After the ceremony, everyone

was treated to barbecued ham-burgers and hot dogs at NAVO-PSPTCEN Port Hueneme. Ser-vice providers were stationed atinformation booths, explainingtheir services and, in some cases,enrolling people in their pro-grams.“An important goal during

these types of events is to provideinformation and resources in or-der to have all families ready forthe eventuality of a service mem-ber being deployed and on his orher way, and by doing so, betterprepare our families for the day-to-day challenges of life,” saidDelacruz.A brief was presented on gen-

eral legal issues Sailors andspouses need to discuss beforedeployments. Parents were free togather information while theirchildren were treated to a bouncehouse, face painting and otherfun activities.Many Reservists and full-time

Sailors have completed multipledeployments, both with a groupand individually.“Navy Reserve Sailors are ev-

erywhere, and we’re doing someincredible work,” said Wright.Reservists and their families havedifferent circumstances when afamily member deploys. Mostdon’t live near Navy bases anddon’t have the built-in supportthat families living on basehave.

Neely said that bringing Sail-ors and families together givesthem a chance to “swap stories,”find out they’re not alone andinform them of the services andbenefits available to assist themif needed.“All of us had a blast!” said

Lorie Alexander, wife of Builder1st ClassMichael Bell, 31st SRG.“The kids really felt special andproud of their dad.”

Warriors and their families honored, helped at NBVC

CONTINUED FROM 6dler,” said Master-at-Arms 2nd ClassAdam Leeds, Fleet Marine Forces/AirWarfare, who serves with Eric, a BelgianMalinois. “We credit it to training andhard work.”

Eric and another of the kennel’s bomb-sniffing dogs, Scout, scored 100 percentin their drills. Alf, one of the base’s drug-detecting dogs, scored 96 percent.But it was Alf who proved to be the top

dog, literally.The Top Dog award is given to the ani-

mal that is most improved from the previ-ous year. Last year, Alf had, to put itnicely, “very minimal certification,” saidhis handler, Master-at-Arms 3rd ClassIrvin Moment. A year later, not only didthe German shepherd score 96 percent indrug detecting, he also scored at the sec-ond-highest level possible in patrol, orfinding and apprehending a suspect.“We’ve built a bond,” explained Mo-

ment, who becameAlf’s handler about 10months ago. “I’ve used positive reinforce-ment and made training fun for him. Meand Alf, we’ve come a long way.”The NBVC kennel, which is supervised

byMaster-at-Arms 1st Class John Caral,FleetMarine Forces, has six dogs, makingit the smallest in the region. Two, BuddyandGina, are on medical waivers and areapproaching retirement, and a third,Rocko, understands only German com-mands. That left Alf, Eric and Scout, aGerman shepherd whose handler is Mas-ter-at-Arms 1st Class Blake Soller, to rep-resent the base in the Aug. 9-13 certifica-tion drills.Sixty dogs from throughout the region

take part in the certification process. Theyare commanded to search warehouses and

scout fields for fleeing suspects and toconduct vehicle sweeps. They also have torun an obstacle course.One of the exercises in patrol and detec-

tion involves a traffic stop in which a per-petrator flees the car and runs into thewoods.“Can the dogs be controlled in a stress-

ful environment like this? That’s whateveryone looks at,” Leeds explained.The dogs also have to find three people

hiding in a building.All theNBVCdogs didwell in the patrol

and detection category. A dog is rankedat one of five levels — 3, 5, 7, 9 and 12,with 12 being the best. Scout went fromlast year’s ranking of 3 to a 7, and bothEric and Alf went from a 3 to a 9.Kennel rankings were based on more

than the dogs’ performance; other factorsincluded trainingmethods, proper admin-istration and paperwork, and conditionand safety of the kennels and the equip-ment in them. NBVC was judged on thecurrent kennel, even though a new one isscheduled to be completed later thismonth.Judges also look at the health of the

dogs and make sure their vet records arein order.“A dog requires maintenance, just like

a jet,” Moment said. “A trained dog canbe worth $60,000.”But to all three handlers, the dogs are

worth much more than that.“Training a dog is like having kids,”Mo-

ment says. “They require motivation andpatience— a lot of patience. If you’ve gota bad attitude, the dog will pick up onthose emotions and act out that way.You’ve got to have a can-do attitude everyday.”Leeds and Soller are 24-hour-a-day

trainers. When they leave the base, theygo home to their own dogs: Leeds has aGerman shepherd and Soller has a Bordercollie.“I’ll come to work, and Eric can smell

my dog, then I go home and my dog cansmell Eric,” Leeds says. “They’ve nevermet face-to-face, but believe me, theyknow of each other.”AndMoment? He takes a second, then

fesses up: He has a cat.“My wife loves cats,” he explained.

Coast Guard Boatswain’s Mate 2nd Class Brent Travis, who came in third, agreed.

“It’s been a lot of fun,” he said. “The waves here are really powerful. When they get some size, yeah, they’re some of the most powerful I’ve ever surfed.”

This year’s event drew 184 contestants, 44 of them from the military. Dan Alpern, marketing director of Morale, Welfare and Recreation, which organized the event, estimated the weekend spectator crowd at 9,000.

“This has been a real successful event,” said Capt. Jim McHugh, commanding officer of NBVC. “I’m not a pro, but the surf looks like it’s very challenging. I think this has been a unique experience.”

Heats began at 7:15 a.m. both days when the marine layer was thick and cold. As it burned off, temperatures soared more than 20 degrees, with afternoons reaching into the mid-70s.

Pauline Hart of Fillmore was more aware of that temperature change than

anyone. As the owner-operator of Java Cat, she sold more than 350 cups of coffee over the two days – hot ones in the morn-ing, iced mochas and lattes in the after-noon.

Live bands performed all day, and many spectators went back and forth from their rock perches or bleachers to the food booths and stage.

Penelope Dutcher was enjoying the best of both worlds. On Sunday, the bikini-clad 8-month-old spent her morning near the shoreline and her afternoon dancing with her mom to Joan Jones’ band, especially liking a version of Johnny Cash’s “Folsom Prison Blues.”

“We came to see the surf contest, and she ended up playing in the sand for the first time. She liked it a lot,” said mom Christine Dutcher, whose husband is Aviation Ordnanceman 1st Class Adam Dutcher, with the Naval Munitions Com-mand, Point Mugu Detachment.

Surfers competed in six divisions: open, military men, open women, Young Guns (those 17 and younger), bodyboard and Expression Session, featuring profession-

als. Here are final results of the military men’s championships:

1: Matt Merel, U.S. Coast Guard, Bo-dega Bay.

2: Jonathan Flick, U.S. Coast Guard, Air Station San Francisco.

3: Brent Travis, U.S. Coast Guard, Mor-ro Bay.

4: Nicholas Barringer, U.S. Navy Heli-copter Maritime Strike Squadron 41, North Island San Diego

YOKOSUKA, Japan (NNS) — USSStethem (DDG 63) honored the ship’snamesake with a posthumous frockingceremony Aug. 24.Steelworker (SW/DV) 2nd Class Robert

Dean Stethem was frocked to the honor-ary rank of master chief petty officer, 25years after he was killed during the hijack-ing of TWA Flight 847 in June 1985.Stethem was singled out by Lebanese

hijackers because of hismilitary status andwas badly beaten and ultimatelymurderedafter their demands were not met.Throughout his ordeal, Stethem did notyield; instead, he acted with fortitude andcourage and helped his fellow passengersendure by his example.USS Stethem, commissioned onOct. 21,

1995, was the first ship to be commis-sioned at Port Hueneme and only the sec-ond to be named after a Seabee.The Port HuenemeNaval Construction

Training Center headquarters building atPort Hueneme is also named in Stethem’shonor.Cmdr.HankAdams,USSStethem com-

manding officer, said the frocking idea issimple.“If Robbie had lived and stayed in the

Navy, surely 25 years later, he would haverisen through the ranks to become a mas-ter chief,” Adams explained.When the Stethem chief petty officer

mess presented the idea to Adams, he said

hewholeheartedly agreed, signed a requestfor the promotion and forwarded it to theoffice of the master chief petty officer ofthe Navy (MCPON). A fewmonths later,the request was approved and a heroicSailor was honored.“The strength and character that he

demonstrated in TWAFlight 847 allowedhim to face extreme adversity with rarelygood grace,” said Adams. “With thatstrength and character he would have beenpropelled to the ranks of master chief,over the course of 25 years career, andduring those times just think of howmanySailors hewould have positively influencedalong the way.”Stethem’s brother, retired Chief Boat-

swain’s Mate (SEAL/EOD) Kenneth J.Stethem, attended the ceremony andserved as honorary guest speaker.Kenneth thanked all of those in atten-

dance and the command for making hisbrother’s promotion a reality. He then readthe Chief Petty Officer’s Creed, as he andthe area chief petty officers welcomed hisbrother to the mess. Kenneth receivedRobbie’s master chief anchors, a bronzedmaster chief combination cover and the

certificate of appointment from theMCPON’s office on behalf of the Stethemfamily.“I believe that we should be steadfast

and courageous in the face of our ene-mies,” Kenneth said. “I believe that weshould always remember that the greatestenemy we will ever face is not a man, ormissile, or ship, or submarines or a com-bination of all of them; the greatest enemywe will ever face is our own ignorance,which prevents us from overcoming ouradversaries and accomplishing our mis-sion.“We should seek and speak the truth;

we should wrap ourselves in honor andthank God everyday for the opportunitytomake a difference while we are still here.If we do that, then, like Rob, when he’sgone and when you’re gone, we can con-tinue to make a difference.”Chief Fire Controlman (SW) Daniel

Watts concluded the ceremony by render-ing honors to the command’s newest mas-ter chief, announcing his arrival throughan all-CPO honors sideboys team.“Master Chief Construction (DV)Rob-

ert Dean Stethem arriving,”Watts said.

25 years after his death, Stethem frocked toMCPOIf Robbie had livedand stayed in theNavy, surely 25 yearslater, he would haverisen through theranks to become amaster chief.

On July 23, the World Famous SunKings and Carrier Air Wing 2 embarkedaboardUSSAbrahamLincoln (CVN-72)in order to conduct their Composite UnitTraining Exercise (COMPTUEX) priorto deploying this fall.COMPTUEX builds upon the strike

group’s combat readiness by simulatingchallenges that it may encounter duringdeployment. The advanced training sce-narios presented during COMPTUEXrepresent the first time that a carrier strikegroup is evaluated as an overall unit. Suc-cessfully completing COMPTUEX certi-fies that the air wing, VAW-116 and thestrike group are ready for open-ocean op-erations, making the force available todeploy wherever and whenever the orderis given.Throughout COMPTUEX, the Sun

Kings provided airborne battlefield com-mand and control, air intercept controland airspace deconfliction during themul-tiple phases of the exercise. Participatingaircraft looked to the Sun Kings for con-

trol, navigation and airspace deconflictionwithin the operating areas off the coastof California.As the Lincoln Strike Group’s sole air-

borne command and control squadron,the Sun Kings provided command andcontrol for multiple, successful large forcestrikes, simulating the targeting and de-struction of critical nodes on the ground,while simultaneously suppressing enemy

radars and anti-aircraft fire. The SunKings, alongwith other AbrahamLincolnStrike Group units, completed numerouscomplex air defense exercises, linking thenetworks of several different Aegis surfaceplatforms in order to establish airspacesuperiority around the strike group.Through hardwork and dedication, Sun

King maintainers and aircrew completedmore than 900 maintenance man hours,

successfully executing a 99 percent sortiecompletion rate. These actions not onlyhelped to ensure a high level of combatreadiness, but helped to uphold the SunKings’ reputation of excellence in the op-erational environment. Additionally, whilesupporting COMPTUEX operations, themaintenance department continued toimpress with their superb job of acceptingand inspecting a new aircraft and readyingit for future combat operations.After the successful completion of

COMPTUEX, VAW-116 returned hometo PointMugu. The Sun Kings are proudto have finished their workups and prepar-ing for deployment. They look forward tothe challenges ahead of them and wouldlike to thank their friends and family forthe support received during their intenseworkup cycle.The Sun Kings are ready for any con-

tingency, and in the words of Rear Adm.Mark Guadagnini, Abraham LincolnStrike Group commander, “Wherever thepresident needs us to go, anywhere in theworld, we’ll be there, and we’ll beready.”

Sun Kings complete training in anticipation of deployment

The Sun Kings, VAW-116, take part in a Composite Unit Training Exercise aboard USSAbraham Lincoln (CVN-72) in July in preparation for deploying this fall.

Naval SurfaceWarfare Center (NSWC)PortHueneme employees completed a six-day assessment of USS Benfold’s (DDG65) combat, weapon and underway replen-ishment systems on June 17, while the shipwas docked at Port Hueneme.During the assessment, NSWC Port

Hueneme engineers and technicians pro-vided expertise and services on many sys-tems of the Arleigh Burke class destroyer.including the MK 41 Vertical LaunchingSystem, AN/SPY-1 Phased Array Radar,MK 99 Fire Control System, Aegis Inte-grated Combat System, OperationalReadiness Test System, Harpoon/Toma-hawk Cruise Missile Guidance andLaunching Systems, MK 15 PhalanxClose-In Weapons System, combat sys-tems, interior communication switch-boards, Underway Replenishment Sys-tems, and future combat systems, as wellas logistics and technical documenta-tion.In addition, NSWC Port Hueneme en-

gineers and technicians worked with theship’s crew to provide operations and

maintenance training on topics such asSailor to Engineer (distance support) andStrike Group Interoperability.“This is my first time at Port Hueneme

for a combat systems groom, and I’m ab-solutely thrilled to be here,” said Cmdr.Kevin Brand, Benfold’s commanding of-ficer. “PortHueneme’s engineers have beenindispensible in preparing our weaponssystems for live fire exercises with Rim ofthe Pacific (RIMPAC) and an upcomingINSURV inspection. All of the distancesupport in the world can’t compare to hav-ing technical subject matter experts on-board ship, providing training to thecrew.”Chief Fire Controlman (SW/AW)Dan-

ny Long is the officer in charge of NSWCPort Hueneme’s assessment team and saysthat Sailors and engineers working to-gether is advantageous to the ship’s crew,the command engineers and the Navy’smission.“USS Benfold’s talented professionals

coupled with our Port Hueneme teamconsisting of engineers, logisticians andsupport personnel ensured a very success-ful combat systems and underway replen-

ishment assessment,” said Long. “Thesupport and dedication from both teamsfurther enhanced the ship’s operationalreadiness as the crew prepares for an up-comingRIMPACdeployment.Having thisassessment early and prior to this deploy-ment will make a definite positive impacton this warfighter’s mission capability.”

Long also said that a ship assessmentprovides a unique opportunity for ship-board personnel to have a dialogue withthe engineers who help design the systemsthey are using.Conversely, it provides engineers the

opportunity to evaluate their systems atthe deckplate level.

WASHINGTON (NNS) — Initial en-listed warfare qualifications are nowman-datory for all Sailors per the recent releaseof NAVADMIN 268-10.OPNAVINST 1414.9, Navy Enlisted

Warfare Qualification Programs Instruc-tion, issues the basic overarching require-ments for the qualification and designa-tion of all enlisted warfare programs.The arduous and often unforgiving en-

vironment we operate in as a Navy andSailor dictates the need for all personnelto have a basic understanding and operat-ing knowledge of the platform or com-mand to which they are assigned.Warfare programs are essential in ensur-

ing our Sailors understand and are ableto effectively engage a casualty, operateequipment or platforms safely and ensurebackup as needed.Warfare qualifications are about ship,

shipmate and self and ensure the safetyand safe operation of each command and

platform on a daily basis.“It’s a standard every Sailor must

achieve. The warfare device itself is a sym-bol that the Sailors who are wearing ithave a basic level of knowledge to ensurethey are capable of fighting the ship, sav-ing a shipmate and ensuring the safety ofthemselves at all times,” saidMaster ChiefPetty Officer of theNavy (MCPON)RickD.West. “Having every Sailor at or work-ing toward that level will only strengthenthe war-fighting ability of that commandand the Navy.”According to the NAVADMIN, quali-

fication and/or requalification is manda-tory for all enlisted Sailors assigned todesignated warfare qualifying com-mands.Warfare sponsors (Type Commanders)

will establish specific qualification andrequalifying timelines; however, the max-imum allowable time for initial qualifica-tion of all enlisted Sailors assigned todesignated warfare qualifying commandswill not exceed 30 months. Timelines for

warfare qualifications are set by the TypeCommander’s instructions and each TY-COM will have oversight of their pro-grams.According toWest, some of the biggest

questions he hears from Sailors are:•What happens if a Sailor doesn’t qual-

ify in time? West stated that failure toqualify in the specific warfare programwithin the prescribed time requirementsshall immediately result in a special per-formance evaluation that removes promo-tion recommendation, but the promotionrecommendation may be restored with aspecial performance evaluation whenqualification is achieved.• Will a Sailor be penalized if their com-

mand doesn’t offer the opportunity forwarfare qualification? According toWest,Sailors without the opportunity to qual-ify in a warfare specialty will not be penal-ized. However Sailors should look forfollow-on opportunities to obtain a war-fare device when able.• Will having mandatory qualifications

water down the existing programs? Weststated, quite the contrary; by mandatingwarfare qualifications for all enlisted per-sonnel, it will significantly “raise the bar”across the command regarding level ofknowledge of the command and the sys-tems our Sailors operate. It is incumbenton those who wear the warfare pin of thecommand to ensure the integrity andstrength of the existing programs.• How will Sailors stand out amongst

peers if everyone is required to have awarfare pin? According to West, Sailorsstand out every day. Performance and theSailor’s overall command support shouldbe the biggest factors to “break out” in-dividuals.“I often highlight efficient manning and

future platforms such as LCS as examplesof the need to ensuring our Sailors havea good, basic understanding of the sys-tems and fighting capabilities of the com-mand to which they are assigned,” saidWest.
