JACKSONVILLE, FLA. – Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NavFac) Southeast has teamed up with Naval Air Station (NAS) Pensacola to embark on the development of an updated Installation Master Plan. The master plan will provide guidance for development during the next 30 years at NAS Pensacola. To develop the master plan, the team will include direct input from stakeholders across the installation and its special areas during area development planning workshops.
Most recently, senior leaders participated in a Vision Plan Workshop conducted in July 2013 that resulted in a defined direction for development. A vision statement and supporting goals and objectives were developed. The draft vision statement reads, “In order to support the warfighter mission, we will ensure a viable installation, preserving historical heritage, leveraging natural resources with secure, sustainable, networked communities and campuses.” The first Area Development Planning Workshop

NavFac SE energy saving projects make strides By Earl Bittner NavFac SE Public Affairs
Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NavFac) Southeast awarded 59 restoration and modernization energy projects totaling $40.9 million in fiscal year 2013. The projected savings from these projects is expected to be more than 350,000 MBTU, which is a 3.3 percent reduction in energy usage from the 2003 Navy Region Southeast baseline. A British thermal unit (Btu) is defined
as the amount of energy needed to cool or heat one pound of water by one degree fahrenheit. An MBtu is one million Btus and is typically used to measure medium to large scale energy consumption. Cost savings on average per MBtu for these projects is $21. Naval Air Station (NAS) Jacksonville executed the most energy projects, a total of 10, while NAS Pensacola expects to save the most energy – just under 92,000 MBtu – from executed
energy projects. At NAS Pensacola, a contract for $2.8 million was awarded for upgrades to HVAC systems, lighting replacement, and water consumption upgrades in Bldgs. 3221, 3460, 3828 and 3465. Projected annual savings are projected to be 16,331 MBtu. Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay awarded a contract valued at $5 million that will see the replacement of approximately 2,833 lights and fixtures with new LED lighting fixtures and save 7,860
MBtu annually. Chillers in Bldgs. 126, 300/300B, 321, 484 and 485 will be modernized at Naval Support Activity Panama City. The award was valued at $1.6 million and will save approximately 4,200 MBtus annually. During fiscal year 2014, 10 installations throughout the Southeast are programmed to receive 27 projects totaling $30.3 million. These projects are projected to save 146,000 MBTUs and will

FY-14 General Military Training schedule announced By Cmdr. Kelly Brannon NETC PAO
Topics for General Military Training (GMT) for Fiscal Year (FY) 14 were announced in NavAdmin 264/13 Oct. 9. The announcement, usually released Oct. 1, was delayed due to the ongoing effort to streamline or eliminate administrative burdens on the fleet, allowing more time to focus on mission readiness. In support of this effort, known
as Reducing Administrative Distractions (RAD), a revision of the GMT instruction is nearing completion. “Through RAD and other feedback, the fleet has been pretty clear that they want us to give this a good hard look,” said Vice Adm. Bill Moran, chief of naval personnel. “We need to find the right balance of required training and white space for our commanders.” While each of the GMT subjects are important, Moran said his staff's
review of the instruction will ensure training requirements are validated, inefficiencies are eliminated, and improvements are made to overall program effectiveness. The intent of the GMT instruction revision is to provide clear communication of requirements and to establish an annual review process for each topic. There are two categories of GMT topics that must be completed in FY14. Category One topics must be conducted via face-to-face, instructor-led training sessions provided at

put the Navy well on its way to meeting its energy reduction goals. Projects range from exterior lighting replacements to more complex HAVC modernization and controls optimizations. “The Department of the Navy (DoN) issued a new energy policy (OpNav Instruction 4100.5E – Shore Energy Management) in June 2012 that is driving energy consumption reduction at all Navy installations, transforming the energy culture and seeking new or existing
technical solutions for reducing energy,” said NavFac Southeast Energy Manager Brad Clark. “The Shore Energy Management instruction is a complete revision from the 1994 version.” The instruction affirms the Navy’s policy and strategy to ensure energy security as a strategic imperative. It also directs the Navy to meet or exceed federal mandates and executive orders. Since naval forces require constant support from ashore installations, the Navy is reducing its vulnerabilities related to electrical grids by lowering con-

Breast cancer is the second most common form of cancer and the second leading cause of cancer deaths behind lung cancer among women in the United States. About one in eight women will develop breast cancer during their lifetime. The American Cancer Society (ACS) estimates that in 2013 more than 230,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer, but men are susceptible as well. The ACS predicts that more than 2,000 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year. The two greatest risk factors for breast cancer are being a woman and getting older. Early detection with a breast self-exam, clinical breast exam and mammography is the best de-
fense against this disease. Mammography can detect breast cancer at its earliest state, often long before it can be felt and usually years before physical symptoms appear. The earlier cancer is detected, the less invasive and more successful treatment can be. The ACS recommends women 40 and older have a screening mammogram every year for as long as they are in good health. Women in their 20s and 30s should have a clinical breast exam at least every three years. Though a monthly breast self-exam is not necessary, it is recommended that women know how their breasts usually look and feel so that they can report changes to their medical provider. Since breast cancer is so rare in men, no routine screening is recommended.

Energy reliability, resiliency and redundancy are essential components of the Navy’s Critical Infrastructure Protection program. “The instruction further directs the Navy to use the most cost effective means to meet shore energy goals including a 50 percent ashore consumption reduction by 2020, achieving a total ashore energy usage rate of 50 percent from alternative sources by 2020, and reducing the amount of petroleum used in

VA health care meets Affordable Care Act requirement By Jerron Barnett Gulf Coast Veterans Health Care System Public Affairs
BILOXI, Miss. – Are you a veteran and are somewhat confused about how the Affordable Care Act and your VA health care benefits work together? If this describes you, read on. The Affordable Care Act, also known as the health care law, was created to expand access to affordable health care coverage to all Americans, lower costs and improve quality care coordination. Open enrollment began Oct. 1, and the Health Insurance Marketplace began offering a new way to find affordable health coverage for those who don’t have it. In the Marketplace, some people may be eligible for lower costs on health premiums and out-of-pocket costs based on income. The Department of Veterans Affairs wants all veterans to get health care coverage that improves their health and well-being. After all, ensuring you receive quality health care is not just our obligation, it’s also our privilege. If you are enrolled in VA health care, you don’t need to take additional steps to meet the health
law coverage standards. You meet the ACA’s “minimum essential coverage” requirement. Additionally, the health care law does not change VA health benefits or veterans’ out-of-pocket costs. If you are not enrolled in VA health care, you can apply at any time. Veterans should bring their DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, or other proof of honorable military service to the nearest Gulf Coast Veterans Health Care System (GCVHCS) medical facility to enroll. You can find details on GCVHCS locations at www.biloxi.va.gov/ locations/directions.asp. You can also enroll online at: https://www.1010ez.med.va.gov, or by phone 1 (877) 222-VETS (8387). Not sure if you are eligible for VA health care? A quick eligibility tool is available at: www.va.gov/healthBenefits/resources/eligibility_check.asp. If you are a recently discharged veteran with service in a theater of combat operations, VA can provide you free medical care for five years from your discharge from active duty for conditions possibly related to your service, regardless of your income status.
Enrollment in VA health care means you have immediate health care coverage that is rated among the best in the United States. There are no enrollment fees, monthly premiums or deductibles. Most veterans have no out-of-pocket costs. Some veterans may have to pay co-payments for health care or prescription drugs. Veterans’ family members and veterans not eligible for VA care may secure coverage through the Marketplace. Also, VA offers health care benefits for certain family members of veterans through programs such as the Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Department of Veterans Affairs (CHAMPVA) and the Spina Bifida program. If you have any questions about VA health care benefits and the ACA, visit the enrollment and eligibility personnel at any GCVHCS facility, or go to www.va.gov/health/aca. More information about the ACA and the Health Insurance Marketplace is available at www.healthcare.gov. Here are phone numbers for GCVHCS facilities: • Pensacola: 912-2000, (866) 927-1420. • Biloxi: (228) 523-5000, (800) 296-8872.
State, federal laws address problem of parental kidnapping By LN1 Sharlissa Barefield Corpus Christi Legal Assistance Office, RLSO Southeast
Parental kidnapping or parental abduction is defined as the concealment, taking, or unlawful retention of a child by a parent in violation of the rights of the child’s other parent or another family member. In response to the problem of parental abduction, steps have been taken on state and federal levels. The Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction Act (UCCJA) was approved by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws and by the American Bar Association in
1968. By 1984, it had been adopted in all states. All states have also enacted criminal parental kidnapping statutes. In 1980, Congress passed the Parental Kidnapping Prevention Act (PKPA), which strengthened the provisions of the state laws and contained additional safeguards against parental kidnapping. Before the UCCJA and the PKPA, a parent who lost a custody battle could snatch the child, take the child to another state and seek a court order of custody in that state. The PKPA deals primarily with the application of the full-faithand-credit clause to custody decrees. The clause ensures that court
decisions rendered by the courts in one state are recognized and honored in every other state. PKPA comes into question only when there is already a custody decree, and one of the parents is trying to enforce it or modify it in another state. The PKPA authorizes FBI investigations of child abductions. Unfortunately, because a court order of custody required for FBI involvement, most non-marital children are unprotected by the provision. Marital children are also unprotected if abducted by the parent before any court order is made regarding custody. Single parents who were never married to the other parent often are not aware of
the importance of a custody order; they mistakenly believe they already have legal custody. For more information on parental kidnapping, go to the FBI’s website at http://www. fbi.gov, contact the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children at 1 (800) THE-LOST, or contact your nearest legal assistance office. For further assistance on any legal issue, you can contact the NAS Pensacola Region Legal Service Office at 161 Turner St., Bldg. 624, Suite B, second deck. The phone number is 452-3730.

Fire official reminds: It could be you From Inspector Donald Harris Fire and Emergency Services Gulf Coast
E
very year throughout the United States and perhaps around the world there are hundreds of fires that start in the kitchen. Most kitchen fires start through carelessness. Kitchen fires are still the No. 1 type of fire in the home. How often do we take the chance leaving hot oil or grease on the stove unattended as we prepare to fry food? This is a true story of one such incident. It was approximately 5 p.m. after work when the victim in the story started preparing her evening meal. Deciding on a frying method, she put oil in the skillet and turned up the heat. With the oil heating in the skillet, she left the room momentarily. Suddenly, the smoke detector was sounding. She rushed into the kitchen to discover the skillet on fire. Remember: when oil or grease reaches the ignition temperature, it will burst into flame. When the liquid ignites, it will spew the oil on the kitchen floor. The victim ran into the kitchen hurriedly to deal with the flaming situation. She did not realize how slippery the

kitchen floor would be after the oil burst into flames. When she arrived she immediately lost her footing. Slipping in the oil on the floor, she tried to grab something to break her fall. Unfortunately, she grabbed the skillet with hot oil on fire. The oil rolled down her arm and legs leaving her in excruciating pain from second- and third-degree burns. The accident could have been prevented if she had taken the necessary precautions. Simply removing the skillet from the heat source while she went to the restroom would have been the smart thing to do. Physical and property damage was the outcome. And it could be you. Safety is always our primary concern at Fire and Emergency Services Gulf Coast. Fires cause injuries; fires kill and fires destroy.

Remember, “the life you save could be your own.”

NASWF Training Squadron Six marks 44th change of command By Ens. Emily Hegarty NASWF PAO
A
fter 15 months at the helm, Cmdr. Don Jamiola ceded command of Training Squadron Six (VT-6) to Lt. Col. Kevin Digman during an Oct. 3 ceremony. The event, which celebrated the accomplishments of the “Shooters” under Jamiola’s command, was attended by past and present VT-6 students, instructors and staff, as well as family and friends of both Jamiola and Digman. Training Wing Five Commodore Capt. James Fisher was the guest speaker at the event, which welcomed VT-6’s 44th change of command. In particular, Fisher thanked a number of Marines for their presence at the ceremony, stating that “both active and retired Marines form an important part of this squadron’s identity.” VT6 rotates between Navy and Marine commanding officers. In his speech, Fisher
touched on the impact of what he termed a “challenging production year,” but noted that despite furloughs and fiscal uncertainty, VT-6 was able to overcome the obstacles and still add “another impressive chapter of accomplishments” in their quest to maintain a legacy of “operational excellence, safe mission accomplishment, and personal and professional development of officers and civilians.” Under Jamiola’s command, the squadron flew 18,000 class A and B mishap-free flight hours, 12,000 safe sorties, and completed 210 primary students, while managing to significantly reduce the average time to train primary student pilots in the T-6B syllabus.
Fisher noted that Jamiola, who he called a “caring leader and outstanding commanding officer,” made an impact that went beyond just numbers. Fisher noted that Jamiola was instrumental in cultivating wardroom camaraderie, which was evidenced by a true sense of mission in the instructor pilots. Fisher said Jamiola was proud that the instructors were focused “not only on getting another student out the door, but in a true mindset of training their replacements for the fleet.” In keeping with that training mindset, Fisher recounted a conversation he recently had with a young Marine VT-6 student officer. In replying to Fisher’s inquiry about
the student’s impressions of VT-6, the student responded simply, ‘I like it here because they treat us as officers, not just students.’ ” Fisher stated that he believed such a telling statement reflected “directly on the leadership of Cmdr. Jamiola and the entire Shooter team.”
Lt. Col. Kevin Digman
Jamiola then addressed the audience at the change of command ceremony, expressing his appreciation for the support his family, friends, and the Shooter team had provided him during his time in command of VT6. In recounting his favorite memories of his time with the squadron, Jamiola mentioned that he was proud of receiving the 2012 CNO Safety Award, which was awarded to VT-6 in recognition of what he termed their “culture of safety and operation ex-
cellence.” The award formally recognized the squadron’s “outstanding safety record, utmost professionalism, superb skill, and the highest level of operation readiness and superior performance, (which) significantly contributed to the Navy’s overall safety record.” Jamiola gave much credit to the instructor pilots of VT-6 for their flexibility and perseverance during the year’s challenges, as well as the dedication and teamwork of his civilian team, without whom he noted VT-6 would be unable to accomplish its mission. After Jamiola, Digman took to the podium to thank Fisher and Jamiola for their leadership and kind words during the ceremony.

GOSPORT Ghost tales, haunted history aboard NASP By Mike O’Connor Gosport Associate Editor
A
murmur of voices teases your ear; you feel a sudden drop in temperature. In the icy cold you may smell an aroma of pipe or cigar smoke or catch a fleeting glimpse of movement out of the corner of your eye. Then a feeling of dread sweeps over you as you realize you’re in the presence of the supernatural ... onboard Naval Air Station Pensacola. Over the years, several buildings at NASP have attained the reputation of being haunted. Whether or not you believe in ghosts or scientific explanation, a number of witnesses have reported eerie phenomena that seem to defy the senses. What better time than late October to explore some of NASP’s ghost tales? Admiral’s Row In 1874, Commodore Melanchton B. Woolsey was the first resident of newly built “Quarters A,” in Admiral’s Row on Johnson Street. An epidemic of yellow fever had been sweeping the area, and Woolsey didn’t want to be a victim. Believing that disease-carrying mosquitoes couldn’t reach the third floor cupola, he moved into it to wait out the epidemic. He received his daily supplies of food – and medicinal rum – by rope basket. When the “tonic” was forgotten one day, Woolsey came down, contracted the fever, and died shortly after. His presence, as well as those of a ghostly lady clad in white, are still said to be seen and felt on occasion in Quarters A. Bldg. 191 Built in the 1850s, Bldg. 191 was a grocery store once and has served many roles over the years. It is the only remaining building of the early town of Warrington. Owned and oper-

ated by the Bauer family, it became Navy property in 1915. Once home to NASP Public Affairs and Gosport offices, Bldg. 191 may still be home to some previous inhabitants. Former Gosport reporter Larry Kachelhofer recalled receiving an unpleasant surprise when working late in the building one night. “I’ve heard people walking down the stairs when there was nobody else in the building,” he said. On another occasion, he said, voices could be heard
speaking indistinctly. A search of the building with another staffer revealed no other people. The final straw came when Kachelhofer saw what he believes was an actual apparition: an outline of a figure in a swirl of skirts, which then turned and vanished. “There is no doubt in my mind that building’s haunted,” he said. Bldg. 16 In the 1920s, Marine Capt. Guy Hall, a flight instructor, frequently whiled away offhours playing poker with other officers. His well-known habit of shuffling poker chips with his fingers may have been his way of shifting attention from a winning hand. Hall’s luck ran out when he was killed in a training mission, but some believe he never really left Bldg. 16. Over the years, on more than one occasion, the tinkling sound of poker chips has been heard – as if they are being shuffled. The NAS Pensacola Lighthouse Featured in several television appearances, including “America’s Most Haunted Lighthouses,” the NASP light is the most famous haunted structure on base. “We believe we have at least three ghosts,” Pensacola Lighthouse Association founder Dianne Levi said. “Most of our volunteers over in the keeper’s quarters have ex-

perienced strange things,” Levi said. “Seeing a reflection of a person or hearing voices. I myself heard someone walking from the downstairs cellar to the front door – and there was no one there inside or out.” In the light tower and in the keeper’s quarters, cigar smoke has been smelled, doors slammed by themselves and a conversation between two female voices are among a few unexplained happenings reported, Levi said.
The apparition of a woman, possibly a former lighthouse keeper’s wife, is frequently mentioned in sightings. “A family was down on the beach having a picnic,” Levi added. “It was getting towards dark and when they looked up toward the light tower, they saw the image of a lady in a long white Victorian-style dress. It was seen by three of them. But the light beam passed right through her while it circled.”

Poet ‘star’ of free show Local arts groups join forces to produce event, bring history to life Story, photo from West Florida Literary Federation
Poet and storyteller Kwame Dawes will be the featured performer in “Art in Motion: From the Gallery to the Theatre,” a free Viva Florida 500 event scheduled for Oct. 24. Dawes who has been described as a “rock star of poetry” will take the stage following area performers who will bring history to life through art, dance and poetry. An Emmy-award winner, Dawes is a Chancellor’s Professor of English at the University of Nebraska, where he edits the “Prairie Schooner.” Raised in Jamaica and once the lead singer in a reggae band, Dawes is the author of “Bob Marley: Lyrical Genius.” He also is an actor, producer, broadcaster, scholar and playwright. He has penned several books of poetry, and 15 of his plays have been produced. For more information on Dawes go to www.kwamedawes.com. His recent book “Seeking: Poetry and Prose Inspired by the Art of Jonathan Green,” ties in with his Pensacola performance. “Art in Motion: From the Gallery to the Theatre” is inspired by “Off the Wall,” a ballet performance based on the paintings of Green, a cultural artist from South Carolina. At the event, local dancers under the direction of Nielah Black Spears will bring to life the paintings of local artist Sonja Griffin Evans, owner of the Gumbo Gallery. Her paintings, “Cotton Conversation,” “The Welcome,” “Wash Day” and “Go Sista,” tell the story of industrious women and their contributions to the development of Northwest Florida. The

Help for victims of sexual assault in the DoD community is a call, click or text away. The SafeHelpline provides live crisis support and information by trained staff. Call (877) 995-5247; go to www.SafeHelpline.org; or text: 55-247 CONUS; (202) 470-5546 OCONUS (may be additional charges for OCONUS). The Sexual Assault Prevention and Response (SAPR) program provides prevention, intervention and a 24/7/365 response. 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. To access an unrestricted report, the victim can report to his/her chain-of-command, security/law enforcement, NCIS, SAPR Victim Advocate (VA), SARC, and his/her CO shall commence an investigation. Restricted reporting allows a confidential report, which does not trigger command nor law enforcement notification and the victim can have a SAPR VA, and seek medical care and/or counseling. To access restricted reporting, the victim can disclose his/her sexual assault only to the SARC, a current SAPR VA, a health care provider and/or a chaplain. To contact the NASP 24/7 VA, call 449-9231/2. To contact the SARC during working hours, call 452-5990, ext. 0; during and after working hours, call the SARC cell at 554-5606.
