Assistant SecNav Natsuhara visits NASP

By Janet Thomas Gosport Staff Writer

A recently completed energy conservation project was the star attraction April 30 when Acting Assistant Secretary of the Navy (ASN) for Energy, Installations and Environment (EI&E) Roger M. Natsuhara visited Naval Air Station Pensacola (NASP).

In his position, Natsuhara develops

department-wide policies, procedures, advocacy and strategic plans. He also oversees all Department of Navy functions and programs related to installations, safety, energy and environment.

Natsuhara’s day began with a briefing from NASP Commanding Officer Capt. Keith Hoskins and command leaders at the base headquarters, Bldg. 1500.

Following that meeting,

Hoskins escorted Natsuhara on a sweeping tour of area bases with stops at NASP, NASP Corry Station and Saufley Field. Other members of the tour group included Capt. Christopher Kiwus, commanding officer, of Naval Facilities Engineering Command Southeast; and NAS Pensacola Public Works Officer, Cmdr. Steve Zimmerman.

The first stop on the tour was the chiller plant for the National Naval Aviation Museum (NNAM) complex, which includes the National Flight Academy.

Base officials teamed up with civilian contractors and museum officials to make a presentation about the project, which is expected to save the Navy a minimum of $400,000 per year in utility costs.

Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NavFac) Southeast’s Public Works Department (PWD) Pensacola completed the project Feb. 28,

NETC command-owned HRO opens on NAS Pensacola Forbes issue a network concern From Ron Borlan NASP Information Assurance Manager

A special issue of Forbes magazine (with others likely to follow) has a Wi-Fi access point glued into the magazine, with a battery operated power source included.

The concern is bringing one of these magazines into our secure spaces since the Wi-Fi access point in the magazine is a transceiver. Do not do it. Be cognizant of items you carry. We are liable to see, and hopefully we do see them, more creative and surreptitious ways of introducing wireless connectivity into our lives.

The opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Naval Education and Training Command’s (NETC) Human Resources Office (HRO) was held April 30 at Bldg.

680 on Naval Air Station Pensacola.

Previously, HRO services for NETC and its activities were handled by five different Navy Human Resources Service Centers around the country. With the new NETC HRO standup, HR services for NETC civilian per-

sonnel will be provided by the new office and the Office of Civilian Human Resources (OCHR) Operations Center – Stennis, previously known as the Human Resources Service Center (HRSC) – Southeast.

“This change to a command-owned human relations (HR) service delivery model will result in significant improvements in service to NETC, providing improved services and clearer, simpler management,” said Janice Travis, NETC’s director of civilian human resources.

“We will see a common approach to HR efforts,

clearer lines of accountability and more consistent resourcing and execution in HR efforts by having an office dedicated to NETC.” Three key characteristics of command-owned HR are: 1. Alignment of key HR functions/decisions under the control of the commander.

2. Realignment of the HRSCs by command to improve functionality.

3. Establishing a common set of HR policies, processes, tools, Information Technology systems and technical authority governed by the Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Manpower and Reserve Affairs.

Rear Adm. Don Quinn, NETC commander, was the guest speaker for the ribbon cutting.

“The NETC HRO will allow us to get back to the model where our people are taking care of our people,” said Quinn. “Our inhouse HR professionals understand the NETC mission and unique

NASC campaigns for health and safety with fair

By Ens. Jesse Boyette NASC PAO

The Naval Aviation Schools Command (NASC) held its annual Health and Safety Fair April 26 in the Aviation Support Equipment hangar at the Naval Air Technical Training Center (NATTC).

Thirty organizations volunteered and provided dozens of displays combined with health screenings and safety demonstrations to more than 2,500 Sailors and Marines. Required for NASC staff and students, the event was also open to all NAS Pensacola personnel and the general public.

Topics highlighted during the event ranged from body mass screenings to swimming safety. Gulf Power’s electrical safety demonstration, which used an electrically-charged model with power lines, was a favorite for Ens. Brittany Artis, student naval flight officer at NASC. “I had no idea that I am so vulnerable to electrocution even when not directly touching any electrical wires,” said Artis. “Thanks to the demonstration, I now

Bloom where you’re planted: A story of a military childhood

By Lt. Danielle Monteil Staff pediatrician, NHP

Not unlike the currently estimated two million military children, my childhood reads like one huge road trip: Beeville, Texas; Coronado, Calif.; Orange Park, Fla.; Coronado, Calif.; San Diego, Calif.; Newport, R.I.; Belleview, Neb.; Pensacola; Mayport, Fla.; Montgomery, Ala.; Pensacola. The average military child moves between six and nine times during their school years alone. As we celebrate the military child (in April), we take the time to acknowledge their vulnerabilities and pay tribute to their incredible resilience.

My military life began as a military child. My father, a Navy pilot, served his country for 29 years. He completed seven deployments and between work-ups, cool downs, temporary additional duties and the four years he spent as a geographical bachelor, he missed about half of the Christmases, birthdays, school plays and soccer games in my first 18 years. Long before the era of the internet, e-mail and video chatting, I remember weekend mornings spent at the kitchen table writing letters to daddy and recording tapes (yes, I said tapes) of us telling him about our week, our friends, teachers, piano recitals and whatever else. I packaged them in envelopes and wrote “war zone” on the top right corner instead of affixing a stamp. I brought a much loved, dog-eared laminated photo of my dad to parents day at my school. I remember the longest day of my life after my mom got “the call” that his plane had gone down. They didn’t know his status and there was a six-hour wait to hear his voice and learn he was OK. Despite these sacrifices, I consider myself one of the lucky ones. Since 9/11, somewhere between 2,0003,000 children have lost a parent in the military and far more have a parent who has been wounded in action.

I did experience some of the gaps and struggles that many military children encounter. I never read “The Great Gatsby” in school. However, I did end up reading “A Tale of Two Cities” in two different grades. I struggled with getting to know a new town, school and classVisit from page 1

said Lt. Cmdr. Rich Contreras, director of the Facilities Engineering and Acquisition Division (FEAD) for the NASP PWD. Contreras said the plant is of note because it is one of the largest energy projects completed on the base in the last three years.

“I think it is a win-win for not only the base and the museum, but for the entire Navy,” he said.

The result of a $7 million utility energy services contract (UESC) with Pensacola Energy and Siemens Building Technologies Division, the project’s energy savings is expected to make significant contributions toward the mandated requirements of the Energy Independence Security Act of 2007 and Executive Order 13423, which require specific reductions in energy in federal facilities of at least 30 percent, by fiscal year 2015.

The work included the replacement of 19 rooftop air handling units and upgrades to the energy management control system for the NNAM as well as high efficiency chiller and cooling tower replacements.

Samuel D. Lee, construction manager with the NASP Facilities Engineering and Acquisition Division (FEAD), said the project was a complete success from beginning to end.

“The contractor delivered a

mates every year or so. Always the new girl, I was often frustrated that the children in my class already had made their friends long ago and were wary of the military child. Why become friends with the new child when you know they are probably going to move at the end of the year? Which is what we usually did. My parents did a great job of filling these gaps as we migrated across the country. I learned U.S. history in the back of the minivan while visiting national parks, historic sites and famous cities. I learned math while they quizzed us on the price per mile based on how much gas we bought between pit stops (the numbers were easier in those days … gas was cheaper). My mother would read classic novels such as “The Secret Garden” to pass the time and help us catch up on some of the books we missed in school. I learned that home was where my family was, and family was what was important.

An important lesson I learned was that there were two constants in my life. My family and the military family were always there for me.

high quality installation one month ahead of schedule,” he said. “This project should save the taxpayers a considerable amount of money due to energy savings.”

Museum director, retired Navy captain Robert “Bob” Rasmussen, is happy with the results.

“It seems to work like a charm,” he said. “I mean its just an even temperature all of the time and no hassle. It is just a real improvement over what we had before. We haven’t seen the hot season yet, but I am very impressed.”

Natsuhara, who has an engineering background and retired from the U.S. Navy in 2008 with 25 years of service, said he got a positive first impression of NASP. “You guys have a really good CO, he seems like he is very knowledgeable,” he said. “I am looking forward to the rest of the tour.”

The NASP visit also included walkthrough tours of Naval Air Technical Training Center (NAATC) quarters and classrooms before the group sat down for lunch at the NAS Galley.

After lunch, Natsuhara hit the road for tours of NASP Corry Station, Naval Hospital Pensacola, the Joint Ambulatory Care Center (JACC), the Navel Exchange and commissary complex and Saufley Field, before departing for his next stop at Naval Air Station Meridian in Mississippi.

demands it places on our civilian personnel. As we get this right, fleet readiness will improve, because fleet readiness starts here at NETC.” The NETC HRO will serve more than 4,500 civilians enterprise-wide and consist of 22 HR personnel located in Bldg. 680 on NASP and five additional HR specialists at other site locations with concentrations of NETC personnel, including Norfolk, Va., and San Diego.

“In today’s Navy HR environment, commands must have the ability to adapt quickly to changing and unique mission requirements,” added Travis. “This new approach will enable NETC to tailor our human capitol decisions and resources both strategically and operationally.”

The Human Resources decentralization plan was created last year by the Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Manpower and Reserve Affairs with the goal of delivering more streamlined and customer-focused support.

“A major advantage to this change to command-owned servicing is that HR professionals will be able to focus solely on the major command to which they are assigned and are not required to focus on several different commands at the same time,” said Patricia C. Adams, Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Civilian Human Resources. “This new organization will provide better customer service through specific, command-focused HR teams and better partnerships with customers.”

According to NASC Safety Officer John Prince, this event remains a prime example of the Navy’s concern with the wellbeing of its personnel.

“This fair demonstrates NASC’s constant emphasis on safety and is in addition to the mandatory safety training throughout the year for our staff and students,” said Prince. “As a result of our aggressive safety programs, we have seen a reduction in the injury rate of our personnel by 52 percent during the past three years.”

The event functions annually as NASC’s kickoff for the Navy’s 100 Critical Days of Summer program. According to the Naval Safety Center,

in the morning. Once your bedroom was done, it was time to meet the children in your neighborhood. For the most part, we lived in base housing. I didn’t have to explain where I was from or how long I was staying.

Instead, we could just be friends, and with each new command came new family friends and old friends reunited.

The military family was a built-in support system.

There was always someone who would come over and fix the leaky toilet, wrestle the children in the backyard and help put up hurricane shutters. We all ate meals together, played in the park together and understood how to say goodbye when it was time to go. With any luck, in a duty station or two, we’d be together again.

Looking back, I see that my childhood cultivated some of my greatest strengths. Military children learn adaptability from experiencing so many cultures and ways of life. They have seen more of this country than the average person, and while they may miss out on having to read “To Kill a Mockingbird,” they get the benefit of multiple school systems to learn from. In each new place, they can choose whether to continue the old sport or pick out a new one. Often necessary through a parent’s deployment, they learn responsibility and independence when they are young. Out of the struggle to learn to survive, they learn to thrive wherever they are.

Military children bloom wherever they are planted and now that cycle begins again with my family. As I watch my daughter wobbling around on unsure feet, I examine the choices I’ve now made as a military parent. My husband and I have secured her stability with parents that will always put family first, a military community that will support her and a lifestyle that will show her the world, as well as, teach her strength, adaptability, resilience and understanding. To my daughter, and all the military children, I salute you.

Your parents and your military family are so very proud of who you are and how you have blossomed despite all we have asked of you.

And now begins my daughter’s great adventure: San Diego, Calif.; Pensacola ...

Confession of a guilty mom: Battery by blender

By Lisa Smith Molinari Military Spouse Columnist

“MOLINARI!” the emergency room (ER) nurse bellowed, jolting my Navy husband and I out of our waiting room stupor. Tearing our eyes from hypnotic crime show reruns playing on the wallmounted television, we scrambled to move our 12-year-old daughter, who had been placed in a wheelchair to elevate her lacerated foot.

“So, what happened?” the nurse asked.

“It was the blender,” I blurted, nervously.

“The blender?” the nurse looked in horror at our daughter’s foot, wrapped in a dishtowel.

“Well, no, her foot wasn’t actually in the blender ... it was on the floor ... and the blender was in the freezer.”

“In the freezer?” the nurse asked, confused.

“I ... it was me ... ,” I mumbled culpably, “I put the glass pitcher in the freezer. When my daughter opened the door, it fell out and cut her foot.”

“Ah,” said the nurse, who seemed relieved to not be dealing with a frappè d foot. “Let’s take a quick look.”

As our daughter winced and whined, we carefully unraveled the dishtowel. “Hmmm ... looks like you’re gonna need a few stitches young lady,” the nurse said.

The nurse fired questions at us – “full name, date of birth,

Then, after a pregnant pause, she looked intently at us and carefully enunciated, “Has

your daughter ever had stitches before?”

“No,” I answered immediately.

My mind waffled and my eyes darted as I thought, “Should I tell her about that face plant she did into the side of the backyard playset? She didn’t need stitches, but if I don’t mention that, will she think I’ve got something to hide? Why is she asking this question anyway? Does she think we are abusive parents with a long history of suspicious ER visits? I guess the whole blender story does sound a bit suspect, and I was the one who put the blender in the freezer to begin with. I should have known it would slide off that bag of chicken tenders. It was my fault. I’m sure she’s alerting the police right now. I think I hear sirens.”

“Sit tight in the waiting room. When the doctor is ready for you, we’ll get you all fixed up,” the nurse said with a smile.

We settled back into the waiting room, just in time to see a withering cross examination on “Matlock.” Stagnating under the unforgiving fluorescent lights for another hour, we reassured our daughter, analyzed the people around us, leafed through dog-eared magazines, and watched an episode of “Hill Street Blues.”

Just as I thought cobwebs were forming, our name was called.

The X-ray technician, the billing rep, the nurse, the doctor – they all asked the same questions. First a battery of rapid-fire queries regarding tedious details were launched in robotic succession, followed by one carefully worded question delivered police-interrogation style.

I can’t recall if the final question was “Has your daughter had stitches before?” or “Are you the abusive parent who negligently put the blender in the freezer sideways?” but I am certain that they had it out for me.

I prayed they would not find out about our two older children, who have had their share of ER visits in past tours.

Three broken bones, two pulled elbows, and at least a dozen stitches; with such typical excuses – fell off the couch, fell off the playset, fell into the playset, fell down the stairs. It all sounded so textbook, I was sure that the police were on their way to haul me off to jail.

But finally, after 30 minutes of treatment and three hours of waiting, we were released.

Feeling like some kind of middle-aged jailbird, I sheepishly wheeled my daughter back to the ER entrance.

Suddenly, “YOU’RE UNDER ARREST!” blared from the waiting room. I considered bolting, but I was really looking forward to our upcoming PCS to Rhode Island, and besides, I would need to pack my fiber pills and

contour pillow before I could lead a life on the run. Just as I turned to face the wall and spread ’em, I noticed that the order had come from “CHiPs” actor Erik Estrada as Officer “Ponch” Poncherello on the wall-mounted TV, and I realized that I was free to go.

On our way back to base, while my daughter sipped a conciliatory Whataburger chocolate shake, I turned to her in an effort to relieve the stillfresh pang of guilt and said, “Lollipop, if I hadn’t put that blender in the freezer sideways, none of this would’ve happened. I’m so sorry.”

“It’s OK, mom,” she said between sips. “It’s not your fault. It was just an accident.”

Along with my heart and that chocolate shake, my mother’s guilt finally melted away.

Digital project uncovers historic documents Photo, story

by Sue Brink NAVFAC Southeast PAO

NAS JACKSONVILLE — Status of the Phase I scanning effort for the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NavFac) Southeast Cadastral Modernization Program (CMP) was highlighted April 25 when NavFac Southeast conducted its annual CMP meeting.

Cadastral documents are public real estate records, surveys or maps showing ownership, boundaries or value of a property.

The NavFac Cadastral staff at each Facilities Engineering Command (FEC) is the official custodian of the Navy and Marine Corps real estate records for its area of responsibility. The team reviewed the way ahead, the importance of the new process in preserving historical records and any process improvements at the meeting.

The CMP project is divided into five phases, with each phase being piloted at NavFac Southeast before being used to support other Navy regions. As each phase is successfully completed, a new region will adopt the change. NavFac Southeast Real Estate Cartographer and Geographic Information Systems Specialist Jill Rose keeps the project on task by coordinating meetings with other FECs, and engaging with the Naval Air Station Jacksonville Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and contractor ICM Document Solutions to implement any process improvements.

“Results of these meetings show just how big the project is and the importance of sharing information as we push this pro-

gram out for others to use,” said Rose. “This project will provide access to their legal documents in real time creating a process that allows them to be able to enter the coordinates of a location and learn everything about the transaction.”

Rose explained that the team used available technology to make the workflow easier and the Phase I pilot served as the research and development phase before it was launched to other regions in the Navy.

“We had to let go of the way we used to do things and focus on how we could make our process better for everyone who needs the information,” said Rose.

Bob McDowell, NavFac Southeast real estate branch head, stated that the project was implemented because a customer requested time-sensitive real estate information. As the team researched and was able to provide the documents within one and a half days, McDowell thought that it should be done

more quickly and began researching new ways to improve the response time.

“The needs of our internal and external customers were crucial to this project to provide information as soon as possible,” said McDowell. The team recognized the need for change and came up with innovative ways to be better at what they do.

Rose met with the NavFac Southeast real estate team and other stakeholders to decide the best plan of attack for the real estate files. With Commander, Navy Installations Command (CNIC) and NavFac headquarters supporting the ideas of the team, they started to focus on bringing their cadastral documents into the digital age.

In a search for the records, the NavFac Southeast Real Estate team discovered many historical documents along the way some historical treasures were discovered buried in boxes.

“We have deed transfers with ‘wet’ signatures from Presidents

Tyler, Polk, Bush, as well as Robert F. Kennedy and the Spanish governor of Florida,” Rose said. “Some of the documents are so old and fragile, they needed to be handled with extra care.”

The historical discoveries brought immediate attention from the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) who visited NavFac Southeast to review some of the documents.

Finding out the documents have such a historical importance confirmed the need to duplicate and secure the documents.

NARA is an independent agency of the U.S. government assigned to preserve and document government history.

Historical data contained in the files at NavFac Southeast provide a glimpse into the former way of transferring, disposing of or acquiring land.

“The fact we have documents signed by a Spanish leader transferring property to us is very cool,” said Jake Walls, NavFac Southeast land surveyor.

“History lessons are all around us.”

“This project is going to make retrieving information easier,” Walls said. “Although it is a huge undertaking, it will be well worth it for our customers and the preservation of important documents.”

The project fixes many issues in the old process and includes electronic conversion, retrieval, output and distribution of digital and hardcopy information in the form of original deeds, maps and real estate working files.

“Partnering with DLA resulted in a reduction in costs for scanning and file storage, and DLA’s global presence has been vital for

accomplishing this effort NavFac -wide,” Rose said. DLA provided secure access to the files, storage and retrieval capabilities which were critical components for the project. NavFac has multiple surveying and CMP contracts in place which provide access to electronic Cadastral files for contractors at each FEC. DLA provides the scanning and retrieval portion of the project and ICM provides the additional staff required to roll out the new program at each FEC. ICM also developed a customized database program used for tracking the location of the original documents; automated the process for manifesting and bookmarking the pdf documents; and developed a color-coded labeling program for categorizing the different types of interests that are maintained by Cadastral.

By creating standard operating procedures (SOP), the team ensured each file was handled correctly and followed a process to prepare the documents for scanning and conversion. SOPs were designed to ensure consistency and uniformity across NavFac . The goal is that all cadastral files are scanned and retrieved in the same way for Navy and Marine Corps interests.

“Discovery of missing documents highlights the need for a better record keeping process going forward,” said Shenita Brown, ICM scanning document specialist. The team is working on the next phase (Phase II) of the effort which includes standardizing the contents of all new files stored by Cadastral.

The team from DLA and ICM has processed more than 200,000 pieces of documentation since September 2010.

N

aval Air Station Whiting Field’s Navy Gateway Inn and Suites (NGIS) earned highly sought-after recognition as a recipient of the Admiral Elmo R. Zumwalt Award for excellence in lodging management.

The award recognizes the highest level of lodging service standards, and each year, half of Navy installations go through the inspection process.

Commands which attain a five-star rating are honored with the Admiral Elmo R. Zumwalt Award.

Only 10 NGIS facilities worldwide were rec-

ognized as 2012 award winners, and the NAS Whiting Field NGIS is one of only five in the United States to receive the prestigious designation. It is recognition that greatly excited the facility’s staff.

“It’s always great to earn recognition like that. Just knowing that all the hard work, dedi-

cation, and teamwork paid off was terrific,” NGIS Manager Betty Wallin said about the award. “These employees work hard all the time and they deserve it.”

The Whiting Field NGIS is no stranger to the Zumwalt Award with three others hanging proudly over the lobby

entrance. The staff earned the five-star designation in 2001, 2003, 2008 and now 2012.

Wallin, who stepped into the manager position late in 2012, emphasized that Lemarian Rasberry, the previous manager, established a goal that the facility would always be prepared for an inspection. No matter when the inspection team would come, his aim was that the rooms would always be ready, and it is still a staff-wide effort to be prepared at all times.

“Our goal is to be a five-star facility all the time,” Wallin said. “The staff goes above and beyond to make sure that

everything is as perfect as it can be.”

The award was established in 1974 by the Secretary of the Navy to recognize outstanding hospitality within the Navy lodging establishments. NGIS operations receive a rating of three, four, or five stars based on several categories including amenities, service, facility quality, and financial management. A five-star rating is awarded to an installation’s entire NGIS operation if they achieve an overall score of 95 percent or higher.

The ratings are established by a Commander, Navy Installations

Command (CNIC) accreditation team. The team conducted an unannounced inspection of the entire facility including housekeeping services, rooms, common areas, front desk operations, personnel management, financial and logistics management.

“From top to bottom the Navy Gateway Inn and Suites at Whiting Field is a first rate operation,” Capt. Matthew Coughlin, the base commanding officer stated.

“This award only recognizes what I already knew – that we have a fantastic team and a facility we can be proud of.”

A ceremony is scheduled for 10 a.m. tomorrow, May 4, at Rosemond Johnson Beach on Perdido Key to honor the memory of the first AfricanAmerican from the Pensacola area to die in the Korean War.

Navy embraces inclusion during 2013 Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month

By Navy Office of Diversity and Inclusion Public Affairs

W

A S H I N G TO N (NNS) – The Navy joins the nation in celebrating the contributions of generations of patriots during Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month throughout May. Liang, who immigrated to the United States from China at age 20, said he came to America speaking almost no English and joined the Navy after pursuing further education in New York. During the exercise, Liang performed as translator for Cmdr. Chris D. Stone, commanding officer of USS Winston S. Churchill.

“This is a unique opportunity to use both my native and adopted languages in service of my country,” said Liang.

According to Stone, “On-site translation and briefing on customs helped ensure solid communication between U.S. Navy and PLA(N) Sailors, along with aiding us in understanding the cultural nuances that help both sides better understand each other.”

“My opportunity to take part in this exchange, and in the Navy itself, reminds me that I serve a country that accepts people from many different parts of the world,” said Liang. “No matter where and how I serve, I’m still serving for my freedom and my country.”

Asians and Pacific Islanders of various nationalities and ancestry have been serving in our Navy since the early 19th century. Asians and Pacific Islanders have continued to be at the forefront as leaders in every aspect of American life, including Sen. Daniel K. Inouye, Hawaii’s first congressman and the first Japanese American to serve in Congress. Having enlisted in the U.S. Army at age 17 and serving during World War II, Sen. Inouye was a great champion of all the armed forces throughout his career. He received the Medal of Honor for his extraordinary heroism and indomitable leadership during an engagement in World War II. On Dec. 17, 2012, Sen. Inouye passed away, leaving behind a noted legacy of leadership and a drive to enhance inclusion in

The Navy announced April 29 in NavAdmin 115/13, this year’s national theme is “Building Leadership: Embracing Cultural Values and Inclusion.”

Inclusion is a recognition that diversity of ideas, experiences, areas of expertise and backgrounds contribute significantly to the Navy’s ability to fulfill its variety of missions both today and in the future.

USS Winston S. Churchill (DDG 81) exemplified this year’s theme of embracing cultural values and inclusion by utilizing the talents, language skills and cultural backgrounds of three Sailors to further their mission in the U.S. Navy’s first bilateral anti-piracy exercise with China’s People’s Liberation Army (Navy) (PLA(N)).

NAS Pensacola’s Asian American and Pacific Islander Month program will be held May 22 at 1 p.m. in the NASC auditorium; Pensacola City Council President P.C. Wu will be guest speaker.

For more information, call 452-3995.

In September 2012, USS Winston S. Churchill and the Chinese Frigate Yi Yang (FF 548) conducted visit, board, search, and seizure (VBSS) drills near the Horn of Africa to enhance cooperative anti-piracy efforts. During the exercise, three Churchill Sailors were utilized as translators.

SH2 Junwen Liang, SHSN Qing Su and LS3 Guo Rui Liu, all Chinese immigrants, played an integral role in the success of the exercise by bridging both the language and the cultural gaps between the two crews.

the armed forces and across the country.

In 2013, Sailors of Asian and Pacific Islander heritage comprise 6.5 percent of the active-duty naval force. More than 20,000 active-duty Sailors, 4,000 reservists, and 18,900 Navy civilian employees identify as Asian American or Pacific Islander, including 10 flag officers, 9 members of the Senior Executive Service (SES), and 176 master chief petty officers. Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders encompass more than 50 ethnic and language groups, representing a vast array of cultures, nationalities, and historical roots.

Directed by Congress in 1978 and established by presidential proclamation in 1979, Asian/Pacific American Heritage Week was first observed the week of May

4, 1979. In 1990, President George H. W. Bush expanded the observance to encompass the entire month, and in 1992, Congress passed a law permanently designating May as Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month.

The Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute provides printable posters, presentations, guidance for organizing observance, and educational facts on their website, http://www.deomi. org/ under the section “Special Observances.”

NASP command’s Civilians of the Quarter From staff reports

N

AS Pensacola command’s Senior Civilian of the Quarter (SCoQ) for first quarter 2013 is Air Ops’ Chris Scott; Junior Civilian of the Quarter (JCoQ) is Fire & Emergency Services Gulf Coast’s Sharon Jones.

Their nominations read as follows: Christina Scott: “Recognized as a subject matter expert in all aspects of air traffic control, she is routinely selected from amongst her peers as the “go-to” on-thejob instructor (OJTI) for all phases of a trainee’s qualification process. Calm and assertive, she has an uncanny ability to effortlessly provide meaningful instruction and patience necessary to keep a trainee focused during high tempo operations and complex control situations.

As a result, her contributions have led to the completion of 618 training hours and 27 qualifications for the (NASP) air traffic control facility this quarter including four radar and tower supervisors.

“Responsible to the commanding officer for the operational performance and professional development of two 18controller watch teams (and) five civilians. As a facility watch supervisor (FWS), she constantly

puts forth the extra effort in the execution of her job assignments seeing success as being connected to action thus keeping the facility personnel moving, attentive to the tasks at hand and studying required professional material.

“As a tower supervisor, she is responsible for the operational efficiency of the control tower watch team. She coordinates aircraft movement between Pensacola Approach Control, Pensacola International Airport, NAS Whiting Field, (NOLF) Choctaw and Sherman Control Tower. As a radar supervisor, she oversees the operational efficiency of the radar watch team while coordinating between FAA control agencies; Houston Center, Jacksonville Center and Pensacola approach as well as Eastern Air Defense Sector, Western Air Defense Sector, Coast Guard on active search and rescue missions, and supervisor of shipbuilding, Pascagoula.

Christina Scott

Sharon Jones

“Scott is committed to ensuring that the facility has the most current information available for operational procedures and control instructions. She was instrumental in the review of division’s facility manual ... pertaining to the control and coordination affecting the safe movement of aircraft.

“Outstanding Instrument Ground School (IGS) instructor.

Completely committed to the professional development of more than 135 Navy, Air Force and civilian instructor pilots.

Meticulously teaches all aspects of air traffic control procedures and prepared a power point course rules brief for SOAR squadron detachment and safety training for Carrier Training Wing Six. “This quarter she has directly controlled and coordinated the safe and successful completion of more than 19,375 mishap-free flight operations in support of TW-6, the Blue Angels and fleet squadron detachments.”

Sharon Jones: “Jones is extremely dedicated and highly skilled and a tremendous asset to Fire & Emergency Services Gulf Coast. She is extremely well organized and efficient. Her leadership and enthusiasm motivates others through positive thinking and dedication to the department.

She has superior management and coordination skills, especially when it comes to multi-tasking and performing tasks under pressure. “(She) constantly goes above and beyond for the department.

On top of her normally assigned duties, she monitors programs and oversees critical fire department information which directly results in the driving of staffing/ manning numbers throughout the department not only for today but justifies future staffing based on call volume and apparatus response times.

“Additionally, she masterfully coordinates rough drafts of instructions/notices, monitors and schedules annual physicals for employees, monitors and sched-

ules issuance and renewals of government driver licenses, government purchase card holder/purchaser, TWMS administrator for personnel, maintains office calendars, routes and distributes mail, schedules training for firefighters, maintains updated certification book, tracks budget items, reviews personnel files for entries and monitoring, maintains vehicle status reports, prepares work schedules for new employees, maintains contracts and memorandums of understanding with community and fellow fire stations in town, answers and screens phone calls for the fire chief, maintains all privacy act information (PII), liaison for scheduling of conference room for drug testing, and most recently assigned proctor for the base’s testing control facility.

“This additional duty requires her to proctor exams for all firefighters and base personnel who are testing through the Air University E-exam program. This system is the only one that allows base personnel to include tenant units the opportunity to take online exams for certification.

“Lastly, Jones coordinates with chief fire inspector on station visits and tours for schools and churches in the local community.

These events build a connection between the local community and Fire & Emergency Services Gulf Coast. This program has been lauded on multiple occasions by the commanding officer for providing a positive influence throughout the community.”

CID expecting visit from evaluation team May 20-23 On-site review from COE part of process for reaccreditation From Center for Information Dominance PAO

The Center for Information Dominance (CID) will host an on-site evaluation team from the Council on Occupational Education (COE) May 20-23 to complete a reaffirmation of accreditation study.

CID has completed an institutional self-study outlining adherence to prescribed standards of curriculum and instructional quality, and will be undergoing the periodic

evaluation process required for reaccreditation.

CID, formerly the Center for Cryptology and Naval Technical Training Center Corry Station, has been an accredited institution for postsecondary, non-degree technical training since 1975.

The upcoming visit is part of the process that COE uses to continue offering Sailors college credits for the military training they receive at CID. COE is a non-profit voluntary membership organization performing quality assurance

functions and promoting improvement of education and training among workforce development providers.

COE is the institutional accrediting body, which certifies CID meets the minimum standards as a post-secondary, non-degree granting, techni-

cal training institution.

For Navy vocational and technical schools, COE accreditation certifies adherence to the same instructional standards as public and private academic institutions.

Accreditation benefits Sailors by providing greater acceptance of transferable credits from Navy schools to civilian academic institutions.

This capability translates into money, time and energy; valuable and expensive resources that the Sailors do not need to repeatedly expend when they aspire to earn associate’s, bachelor’s or graduate degrees during or after military service.

CID is the Navy’s learning center that leads, manages and delivers Navy and joint force training in information operations, information warfare, information technology, cryptology and intelligence.

With a staff of nearly 1,300 military, civilian and contracted staff members, CID oversees the development and administration of more than 226 courses at four commands, two detachments and 16 learning sites throughout the United States and in Japan.

CID provides training for approximately 24,000 members of the U.S. Armed Services and allied forces each year.

The Sexual Assault Prevention and Response (SAPR) program provides prevention, intervention and a 24/7/365 response to adult victims of sexual assault. Active-duty and adult family member sexual assault victims have a choice of reporting options, unrestricted and restricted.

Unrestricted reporting allows a victim to have an advocate, seek medical care, counseling, legal services and safety interventions such as a Military Protective Order (MPO), separation from offender, expedited transfer, etc. To access an unrestricted report, the victim may report to his/her chain-of-command, security/law enforcement, NCIS, SAPR VA, SARC, and his/her CO shall commence an investigation.

Restricted reporting allows a victim to have a confidential report, which does not trigger either command nor law enforcement notification and the victim may have a SAPR VA, and seek medical care and/or counseling. To access restricted reporting, the victim may disclose his/her sexual assault only to the SARC, a current SAPR VA, a health care provider and/or a chaplain.
