JFC Naples Brings Bavaria toLago Patria with Oktoberfest 2014Six million people make the pil-

grimage to Munich every year forthe original Oktoberfest, but U.S.and NATO service members andtheir families were given the oppor-tunity to partake in a real Oktober-fest experience at Allied Joint ForceCommand (JFC) Naples, Sept. 19. Oktoberfest began in 1810 with

the marriage of Crown PrinceLudwig, later King Ludwig I, toPrincess Therese of Saxony-Hild-burghausen. The people of Munichwere invited to festivities held onthe fields before the city gates tocelebrate. Though it began in Mu-nich, Oktoberfest events are nowcelebrated throughout Germanyand the world, even as far away asYokohama. This year marked the 12th annual JFC Naples Okto-berfest. “The reason [we hold] German

Oktoberfest here in Naples is topromote German culture and tradi-tion and to improve the relation-ship with the other partner nationswithin NATO and all the militarypersonnel and their families andfriends,” said Lt. Cmdr. SvenKasimir, JFC Naples Public Affairs.“And the best way to get in contactand meet is to celebrate withdrinks and food.”

I’d like to start out this weekby reminding everyone that thesecurity and safety of our per-sonnel and their families is myprimary focus. You may see in-creased force protection meas-ures on base, and we have beengiven guidance to curtail use ofuniform wear to and from workif public transportation is beingused or out in town - outsideyour personal vehicle. OfficialNavy PT gear is not authorizedfor use off installations. Pleasehelp to get the word out.All U.S. citizens conductingpersonal travel around Europe should closely monitor State De-partment travel warnings and alerts, and read the country-spe-cific information on their website. Take a look atwww.travel.state.gov to review the latest safety and security in-formation for the countries you plan to visit. Also, remember tosubmit an Individual Force Protection Plan prior to taking leave.It’s required to have a record of your travel and you’ll get infor-mation on requirements and suggested force protection measures. One important reminder for everyone in our community, if yousee anything out of the ordinary, illegal or unsafe, call EmergencyDispatch at 911 on base, or 081-568-4911 off base. Help us ensurethe safety and security of our people and facilities. We have a huge cleanup project taking place tomorrow and I en-courage everyone to participate. The Support Site perimeter willbe cleaned by a joint effort from our community and our Italianhosts. The Second Class Petty Officers Association has done agreat job coordinating this and we’re looking forward to partici-pation from the Mayor of Gricignano, FareAmbiente, Senesi,Mirabella and all the other volunteers making their way here to-morrow. Come out, help make our base look its best and take partafterwards in a great barbecue with everyone in the Housing of-fice’s parking lot right off base. Besides the fence line, I ask that community members also con-tinue to be good stewards to the interior of our base. I’ve noticedmore trash recently at our parks and playgrounds. Do your partby picking up after yourself and remind others - politely! Our chil-dren could use a reminder as well and most don’t want to be play-ing on trashy playgrounds. We had nearly 400 participants in last week’s Color it Up run,so another successful event from our professionals at MWR.They’re hosting a flea market and the Youth Fall Sports openingceremonies at Carney Park tomorrow and finishing the day offwith a free concert by Anberlin at the Support Site Central Parkat 7:30 p.m. The Navy Entertainment and Armed Forces Enter-tainment tours have been flowing through here this month and Iask that everyone takes advantage of this great opportunity.

"Liquefaction a Success: Pope to Visit"Cardinal Crescenzio Sepe, archbishop of Naples, an-

nounced during the ceremony of the liquefaction ofNaples’ patron saint’s blood, that Pope Francesco willbe in Naples in March 2015. The Pope will celebratea mass at the Cathedral after visiting sick people anddetainees. The blood of San Gennaro liquefied at10:12 a.m. The miracle takes place on the anniver-sary of the martyrdom of the saint in September 305AD. The miracle also takes place on December 16 tocommemorate the 1631 eruption of Mt. Vesuvius,

believed to have been halted by the saint's interven-tion, and again on the Saturday before the first Sun-day in May. The liquefaction of the blood is a goodomen for the city, Neapolitans see it as a sign of dis-aster when the blood does not liquefy. In fact, disas-ter has struck on at least five occasions when theblood failed to liquefy, including in 1527 when tens ofthousands of people died from the plague, and in1980 when 3,000 people were killed in an earthquakewhich devastated much of southern Italy.

Lively music, the scent of bratwurst and goulash, andthe taste of cold Bavarian beer, Oktoberfest is a festivalfor the senses. The JFC motor pool became a beer hallcomplete with stage, tables and checkered blue andwhite Bavarian banners, food and beer tents. A fun fairfor all ages, a rock wall and games were set up outsidefor children.Authentic German food was brought in, as was Okto-

berfest beer from a small Bavarian brewery that hasbeen in business since 1308. Special beers are brewedfor Oktoberfest, which at JFC were slow poured from atap for the best taste. Beer plays an important role inthe festivities, as Oktoberfest doesn’t begin until thefirst keg is tapped. Though beer had been flowing throughout the day

and numerous taps, Lt. Gen. Leonardo di Marco, JFCNaples chief of staff, had the honor of tapping the cer-emonial keg to “officially” start Oktoberfest late in theafternoon.Complimenting the authentic flavor were popular

music acts from Germany and Austria, WolayerseeEcho and Melissa Naschenweng, whose music perme-ated the night throughout the festival grounds."With all the Bavarian decoration, the music, the food,

it's a special atmosphere and it's unique," said Kasimir. Patrons were another important element. Members

of the local U.S. military community were able to meetother service members from around Europe and inter-act over food and drink. "I enjoyed meeting a lot of people from different coun-

tries," said Logistics Specialist 1st Class Gener Paraon,assigned to Naval Supply Fleet Logistics CenterNaples, who brought his family to take part in theirfirst Oktoberfest. "I enjoyed tasting the different beer and the different

foods,” said Paraon. “Definitely, we'll come again nextyear."

Lighting accounts for the largest consumption ofelectricity in the US. Approximately 38 billion dol-lars a year is spent on energy used to produce light-ing. Many facilities have incorporated motionsensors into their lighting systems in order to reduceconsumption. Motion sensors are used to detect mo-tion in an area. If the sensor does not detect movement for a prolongamount of time the lighting circuit is de-energized. As beneficial asthis invention has been the issue is it only detects motion with about75% of accuracy.A Smart sensor, also known as an Image Processing Occupancy Sen-sor (IPOS) has recently been developed by the researchers at the En-ergy Department’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory. Thesesensors incorporate the technology commonly used in smart phones formotion detection. They have a tiny camera with a microprocessor thatcan detect human presence and even the number of humans in theroom. With this new technology these sensors can detect motion with90% accuracy. This can lead to a greater reduction in energy wastecaused by lighting systems.

The Naval Support Activity Naples Emergency Management teamwill be hosting Quake-EX 2015, Oct. 16, to give area commands andpersonnel a chance to practice their mustering and accountability.Natural disasters can occur at any time and knowing your com-

mand’s emergency plan is a key aspect to appropriately act after onestrikes. The sudden and violent shaking experienced during an earthquake

is caused by the shifting and breaking of subterranean rocks. Earth-quakes can happen almost anywhere and anytime without warning,so you and your family should be prepared.•Minimize home hazards by bolting shelves, bookcases, china cabi-nets, and other tall furniture and strapping the water heater tostuds in the walls.

• Identify a safe place in every room of your home where nothing canfall on you, such as under a table, against a wall, or in a doorway.

• Practice earthquake drills as a family so everyone knows what todo, especially “Drop, Cover, and Hold On!”– Ensure you have a fully-stocked disaster kit

What Do I Do If There Is an Earthquake? If you are indoors:

• Do not run outside. There may be falling debris.• If possible, DROP to the ground, take COVER under a table orsturdy piece of furniture, and HOLD ON until the shaking stops.

• The electricity may go out, so don’t use elevators.

If you are outdoors:•Move away from buildings, street lights, and utility wires or any-thing that could fall into somewhere open.

If you are in a moving vehicle:• Stop as soon as you can, away from buildings or anything thatcould fall.

• Stay in the vehicle

What to Do When the Shaking Stops• Check yourself and others for injuries.• Turn off the gas if you suspect a leak.• Stay tuned to the radio for further information and instructions106.00 & 107.00 FM.

• Expect aftershocks, which can come minutes, hours, or days afteran earthquake.

A new initiative to assist Gold StarFamilies - those whose military mem-bers have died in service - will belaunched Oct. 1 by Commander, NavyInstallations Command (CNIC).The Navy Gold Star (NGS) program

will provide Gold Star Families a levelof long-term assistance and supportnot previously available through theNavy. It is enhanced with the activeparticipation of new NGS region andinstallation coordinators, which arethe lead agents for actions within thelong-term casualty supporting process. "I am excited about this new Navy

program. I believe in it," said ViceAdm. William French, commander,Navy Installations Command duringhis opening comments for the NGS co-ordinators' initial training held at theCNIC headquarters in Washington,DC. "Gold Star Families need and theirsacrifices need to be recognized. I envyyou all because you come to an organi-zation that makes a big difference tofamilies." According to the NGS Program Man-

ager for CNIC Mike Bruner, NGS coor-dinators play an important roleprov iding support for family membersthrough a very difficult time, helpingthem build resilience and establish anew normal. Guided by the coordinators,Gold Star Families will be able to con-nect with support groups and grief coun-selors. Additionally, new services mayalso include chaplain care, school liaisonassistance, and family employment. The training for the coordinators is a

two-day program filled with informa-

tional tools including the description ofthe duties and responsibilities of theCasualty Assistance Calls Officers, anoverview of all CNIC fleet and familysupport programs, discussions on thestandardized procedures for survivorassistance, and training on the De-fense Casualty Information ProcessSystem (DCIPS), among others. "Another great benefit is the inclu-

sion of financial counselors that canprovide education on budgeting and in-vesting," added Bruner. "These finan-cial counselors are committed toassisting survivors to create a solidfoundation for financial success."At the training French also spoke to

each one of the coordinators stressingthe importance of collaboration andteam work. "You are building this program; take

all the great ideas from our counter-parts, the best ones and leverage eachother, push the headquarters ... wewant all of you to have the tools inplace to be successful," he said.French spoke about the standardiza-

tion of procedures across the enterpriseand emphasized that this new programprovides the opportunity to work onregulating the delivery of servicesacross the regions. In order to accom-plish this, he highlighted the impor-tance of the coordinators and urgedthem to begin working on achievingconsistency, identifying the inconsis-tencies they come across, selecting theones that really matter, and then feed-ing back to CNIC so that leadershipmay be involved in helping solve thoseinconsistencies. "A program like this one cannot be

Pompei closed its fourth annual public film festival, in memory of MassimoTroisi, with a gala, concert and awards ceremony, Sep. 20. The star studded event, held at Teatro Di Costanzo Mattiello, marked the end-

ing of a week of selected films from an international pool of applicants. The evening began with the arrival of guests, including the Naples U.S. Consul

General Colombia Barrosse, in the court yard of the palazzo outside the theater.Guests mingled under the setting sun surrounded by palm trees and high endsports cars. The snack bar provided cold water, Café del Nonno, and other chilledrefreshments to counter the humid heat at the end of the day. Inside the theater the band performed a sound check as guests from the gen-

eral public purchased tickets at the counter for 15 euro.Around 9 p.m. after guests took their seats, the schedule of events began with

a memorial to Massimo Troisi, featuring small clips from his works. The memo-rial was interspersed with presentations of the festival’s awards by FestivalPresident and Organizer Raffaele De Luca. On Monday, Sep. 15, the Pompeii Film Festival’s Honorary Patron, Larry

Wood, provided some insight on the dedication of the festival.“Massimo Troisi died twenty years ago this year and has not been honored with

anything to remember his contributions to film and comedy. Rafelle De luca de-cided it would be an honorable thing to recognize him through comedy,” saidWood. “He passed away during the filming of Il Postino and his stand-in will bethere as well to reflect on his memories of Troisi. Robin Williams who recentlypassed away will also be recognized for his contributions to film, to television,and his contributions to comedy.”Awards this year were given to films and other mediums in categories ranging

from books on cinema to the festival’s top honor for best film. This year TheHumbling starring Al Pacino was selected as best film of the festival.The Pompei Film Festival award is designed after a statue found in front of

The House of the Faun in Pompei, an aristocratic house built during the RomanRepublic in the 2nd century BC.Next year the festival organizers plan on hosting a larger event in the same

location with hopes of further promoting the city of Pompei and its cultural her-itage.

Italian law requires all foreign personnel working or living within Italy, otherthan an active-duty member under military orders, to obtain a Sojourner Per-mit within eight days of arrival in Italy. This is different from a visa, which ismerely an approval for entry into the country. All applicants over 14 years of age must apply in person, as each person's sig-

nature is required at the time of application. NATIONALS OF ANY STATE OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY COM-

ING TO ITALY DO NOT REQUIRE ANY VISA OR SOJOURNER PERMIT.As part of the Area Orientation process, the U.S. Region Legal Service Office

(RLSO EURAFSWA) assists in the preparation and oversees the acquisitionof the Sojourner Permit for all personnel attached to U.S. Navy commands inthe Naples area. Army and Air Force personnel stationed at JFC must applythrough the Carabiniere at the JFC Provost Marshall's Office, Building L.Contact Tiziana Petrarca, RLSO EURAFSWA liaison advisor, at 081-568-

Paula Ludwick. Her husband Chad, aretired Cryptologic Technician, sup-ported her career until its very end."I didn't really want to be an Om-

budsman," said Chad. "It took a lot ofbegging and pleading from my wife'scommanding officer. He knew I wasgood at talking to people about themilitary and dealing with spouses, sohe kept trying to get me to take the po-sition. Eventually they had no one totake the role, so I stepped up untilsomeone else could be identified.""Chad has supported me from day

one," said Paula. When I made chief hewas right there for me - cooking mealsand helping with the bake sales. Hesaw a need and he filled it. It's whathe's done for me, what he's done forour family, and what he did for theNavy when called upon.""I was intimidated from day one,"

said Chad. "I was one of six males inthe entire Region Southwest in a rolethat is almost fully women. But I per-severed. As the Ombudsman I was thego-between for families and the com-mand. My wife's command was a highdeployment command and at a mo-ment's notice members would be calledto deploy. Sometimes they'd get thecall and have to leave in the middle of

the night and the family didn't knowwhat to do the next morning. Butthat's where I would come in. With thehelp of the command we found a solu-tion to every problem. The role of theOmbudsman is to help. A lot of spousesdon't know what goes on with militarylife, even if they have been marriedinto it for 20 years. We help with thepieces that don't make sense."Sometimes those pieces are as simple

as checking into a new command."I support active duty couples and

families prior to their arrival to thearea," said Lisa. "I took the lead onmaking our command Family Websitea reality with the support of our offi-cer in charge , senior enlisted adviser,an active duty team member and ourWarrior & Family Support Senior An-alyst. That Website is the best way forour active duty service members andtheir families to stay updated on themost current command and commu-nity information, news and re-sources.”For more information on becoming

an Ombudsman, visit the Fleet andFamily Support Center or take a lookat www.cnic.navy.mil/ffr/family_readi-ness/fleet_and_family_support_pro-gram/ombudsman_program.html.

The word "Ombudsman" originatedin Scandinavian countries and re-ferred to safeguarding the rights ofcitizens. Now the word Ombudsmanrefers to a person who safeguards therights of Navy families who rely oncommunication from commands tostay informed and flexible.It's not a job for just anyone. Lisa

O'Neil and Chad Ludwick know that. "Navy Family Ombudsmen are a

group of extremely dedicated volun-teers who continually train to assistNavy families to successfully navigatethe challenges of the Navy lifestyle,"said Lisa, whose husband Mike O'Neilis a chief. "The Ombudsman Programimproves family readiness, which inturn improves mission readiness."And that sounds great. However,

hours are not preset, your job descrip-tion is always changing depending onthe needs of the command, the Sailorsand their families, and most times it'sthankless. And that's why Septemberis designated as Ombudsman Appre-ciation Month, to officially thank Om-budsman for the service they provideto the Navy."I love being an Ombudsman!" said

Lisa. "The Ombudsman Program of-fers quality training while servingamazing Navy families and workingalongside some of the most talentedNavy and civilian professionals."And for Lisa, she doesn't need to be

thanked."The biggest reward comes from

helping Navy families and empower-ing them to advocate for themselves,and thrive in situations they may ormay not have thought they could havemade it through without the supportof their Ombudsman," said Lisa."Lisa has made an immeasurable

difference in my career," said Mike."She is the one and only person be-sides the Chief's Mess that I can turnto at any time and ask for help anduse as a sounding board. The life of amilitary spouse is the toughest job inthe military and had it not been forLisa sticking by my side for the past20 years of our marriage, then my ca-reer would have surely suffered."And Mike isn't the only person who

feels that way. Just ask former Chief
