Sea Cadets train with NSASP police By Andrew Revelos NSASP Staff Writer Naval Support Activity South Potomac (NSASP) police officers offered a special training session Apr. 14 to cadets from the Pentagon Division of the U.S. Naval Sea Cadets Corps (NSCC) and Navy League Cadet Corps (NLCC) onboard Naval Support Facility (NSF) Dahlgren. The group included 30 young people age 10 to 18, and even before the training session ended, the cadets announced the law enforcement training constituted the "best drill weekend ever." The cadets' day began bright and early with a 0530 wakeup and a colors ceremony at the Aegis Training and Readiness Center (ATRC) at 0800. From there, the cadets marched to the base's JD's Conference Center, where they met NSASP police officers. After an introduction and safety brief, NSASP police chief Robert Brooks started the training session with an exercise that became very familiar with the cadets over the course of the day: push-ups, and lots of them. If cadets did not keep count properly, the group did more push-ups. When one of the cadets' two squads did something better than the other, more push-ups were requested. "It pays to be a winner," Brooks told the cadets. But the rewards of victory were short-lived for the winning squad: when the losing squad assumed the push-up position, Brooks asked the winners if they were not on the same team as the losers. The message was quickly understood and the winning squad did the push-ups alongside the losing

[The cadets] have to work as a team or they'll fail," said Brooks. "One of the reasons we do so many push-ups is not as punishment, but to reinforce the idea of the team concept. No pack is stronger than its weakest wolf; no wolf is stronger than the pack. If you could summarize the theme of the training today, it's teamwork."

Commonwealth Governor's Students visit NSWC Dahlgren, build miniature Electromagnetic Railguns By John J. Joyce, NSWC Dahlgren Division Corporate Communications Electromagnetic railguns. How are they designed and built? How do they work? Can you explain the science and physics behind this technology? Since 2004, producers, journalists, and top level military officials travelled to Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD), asking the scientists and engineers who test the Office of Naval Research (ONR)-sponsored electromagnetic railgun for the answers. Now, a group of aspiring experts - Commonwealth Governor's School students - can draw from their own experience to answer the toughest railgun questions.

Tom Boucher, NSWCDD Electromagnetic Railgun Test Director, briefs Commonwealth Governor's School students about the two-hour railgun academic and practical sessions he designed for them, culminating with each student building miniature railguns they used to demonstrate electromagnetic principles.
More than 100 students arrived at the NSWCDD Electromagnetic Facility on April 18 with an education in physics covering electrical circuits, capacitance, resistance, magnetic fields, forces on particles in magnetic fields, kinematics in one dimension, projectile motion, Newton's laws, work and energy, and the ability to solve equations with algebraic expressions. Before leaving, they used their knowledge of physics to design and build their own miniature electromagnetic railguns under the guidance of NSWCDD railgun engineers. "They were briefed by engineers about how railgun works and we made it exciting for them," said Tom Boucher, NSWCDD Electromagnetic Railgun Test Director. "Students who expressed an interest in working at Dahlgren in the future were glad to

ing petty officer (LPO) for the Pentagon Division. "Normally, people are either too harsh or too easy with younger people, but they treated us just right." Of course, having an idea about how cool the rest of the training day would be may have added to the cadets' incentive to perform. After the physical training (PT) session, cadets learned safe and proper weapons handling with simulated firearms before putting those skills to use inside NSASP's law enforcement training facility and virtual training simulator. An excited gasp came over the young people when the latter was described to them as a really "big video game." At the simulator, the cadets practiced their marksmanship and form under the watchful eyes of Senior Chief Master at Arms Chris Merz, assistant chief of NSASP police, and Sgt. Steve Mullen. Mullen was impressed by the smallest shooter at the Pentagon Division, 10-year old Hayleigh Mellinger. The young NLCC cadet took out nine simulated targets in seven and a half seconds with no misses. "I guess big things do come in small packages," Mullen told a very proud Mellinger. An older cadet, Caleb Bunde, impressed the police officers with his speedy and accurate shooting. "You can tell he's been trained and trained correctly," said Mullen. Bunde let everyone in on the secret: his father is a retired Navy Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) tech who competes in United States Practical Shooting Association (US PSA) and International Defensive Pistol Association (IDPA) matches. The younger Bunde had clearly absorbed much of his father's knowledge. "Video games" were only one part of the law enforcement training, however. Pentagon Division learned basic room clearing and entry techniques inside Building 217,

Learning about several night vision devices and how they help police officers navigate the darkness was another big hit with the cadets. "I did like the night vision," said Hayes. "I thought that was cool. It was a little difficult to navigate but it wasn't that bad." Hayes has participated in the
Sea Cadets for four years and hopes to eventually join the Navy. "I want to do an ROTC program when I'm in college or Annapolis, if I can get in," she said.
Hands-on look at law enforcement

"This is a great opportunity, especially with these young people, to introduce them to some of the basic tactical stuff that they may learn later on in their careers if they go into law enforcement or into the military." Brooks and Mullen both emphasized how impressed they were with the young men and women of the Pentagon Division. "They are a very disciplined group of kids," said Brooks. "The ages range from 10 to 18, but you don't see the typical wandering attention spans. "The kids were very focused and I'm very impressed with that. I think they've done a great job with their attitudes and the learning curve, for that matter, was that of police officers I've taught at the academy." "Watching these young people learn... it's awesome," added Mullen. "I was really impressed with their capability to learn and apply the knowledge immediately. And they don't have any bad habits or
preconceived notions.They listened and they did great. I see potential in quite a few of them." Corporals Randy Brown and Bryan Mason assisted Brooks, Merz and Mullen for the Sea Cadets' training. Pentagon Division executive officer, Ensign Teresa Crater, said the training made a very positive impact on the cadets. "It's pretty special," she said. "There are a lot of things they have to do with paperwork and coursework and those are kind of boring. This is one of the [drill weekends] that's action-packed and they love it.They were up this morning at 5:30 and they were waiting to go." Crater thanked the officers for their service and for the training. "This could not be possible without them," said Crater. "They're giving up their time and their weekend to help these kids out... we can't thank them enough. It wouldn't happen without them.They have the knowledge, the skills necessary and they made a difference in 30 cadets' lives."
Green technology highlights Earth Day celebration By Andrew Revelos NSASP Staff Writer Naval Support Activity South Potomac (NSASP) hosted an Earth Day celebration onboard Naval Support Facility (NSF) Dahlgren on Apr. 19 that featured high-tech and low-tech solutions for keeping the environment clean and green. Cell Phones for Soldiers, a non-profit organization provides service members with cost free communications, collected used cell phones and their batteries. Staff from Naval Facilities Command Washington's (NAVFACWASH) Dahlgren Site worked display booths, which provided information on topics ranging the latest waste disposal technology, invasive plants and how to incorporate recycled materials in the garden. Water media manager Brenna White showed off an ingenious method she found to convert waste into seedling containers. For green thumbs, the method not only cuts down

Sailors from the Aegis Training and Readiness Center volunteered at Mary's Shelter in Fredericksburg,Va. on Saturday, Apr. 14. Kathleen Wilson, Mary Shelter's Director, was very grateful for ATRC's time and efforts. In a letter to ATRC, Wilson wrote "For one of the only times in my life I am at a bit of a loss for words. When you said you were bringing a service group, I never expected to see so many people show up." Mary's Shelter is a local, community, nonprofit organization that provides housing and support to

In addition to the dining room being primed, it was also beautifully painted.

Having already completed twelve other marathons in as many years before running in April's Boston Marathon, you might think that Air Force Maj.Theodore J. Rieth would find the challenge routine. After all, except for the scenery, all marathons are the same distance - 26.2 miles or 42,000 meters or about the distance from Fredericksburg to Dahlgren. Yet, for Rieth, Boston was anything but routine. "Boston was my favorite so far," said Rieth, "The history and tradition of the race are second to none. I've followed the race for many years and finally being able to be a part of the history felt awesome." "The best part was the excellent spectator support and experiencing all of the sights along the course first hand, such as running by Wellesley College, Boston College, and up Heartbreak Hill," Rieth said. "The toughest part was the fairly challenging course and the warm temperatures." Rieth finished the race in three hours, 48 minutes, and eleven seconds. That compares to his qualifying time of 3:13:29 at Rehoboth Beach, Del. in December 2010, his best time for a marathon to date. His time was slower than normal, he said, because temperatures the day of the race were 30 to 40 degrees higher than normal, a factor that may have contributed to a few thousand runners simply not showing up at all and others dropping out before finishing.
U.S. Air Force Major Theodore J. Rieth of Joint Warfare Analysis Center competed in his first Boston Marathon earlier this month. "I actually didn't feel too well immediately after the race," Rieth said, although he never considered dropping out at any point. "For the first time ever, I ended up getting a bag of IV fluid in the medical tent due to dehydration. After that, I felt much better." Otherwise, the only after effects were muscle soreness and sunburn, he said. He returned to work at the

Green: Navy’s goals are controlling costs and minimizing environmental footprint Continued from page 2
on waste, but also gives seedlings a steady supply of water. White cut a standard plastic soda bottle in half at its middle, inverted the top of the bottle and drops it into the bottom of the bottle. A cloth wicks water from the bottom of the bottle, which serves as a water reservoir, through the top of the bottle, which hold the soil and seedling. Joe Trocchio, hazardous waste media manager, manned a booth dedicated to the "life" of trash. Of course, most consumers forget about garbage as soon as it's loaded into the truck. For the ecologically-minded, however, such waste is a big concern in a region where landfills are an important part of the economy.Technology such as geo-fabrics, liners and synthetic grass offer landfills a way to function with less soil and clay, while keeping up a neat, low-maintenance appearance. "The biggest thing with landfills nowadays is their volume," said Trocchio. "If they can minimize their use of liner materials, they maximize the actual waste they can put in. The new materials are also more reliable. The [liners and geo-fabrics] are not going fill-in with material and clog." While allowing landfills to take in more waste might not sound like a very green idea, the materials represent the kind of environmental technology that is catching on, since it helps the landfill increase its business while offering greater environmental protection. "If any of these liners fail, something

Trocchio saw an intersection between the Navy's twin goals of controlling costs while minimizing environmental footprints. "Recycling offers cost-savings and the ability to recapture some of the capital we use in something like metals," said he. "There's no need to throw that stuff out and pay to
have someone haul it away; there's a market for that now." Overall, Trocchio said he liked the green mindedness he's observed in his one year working for the Navy and noted how military organization can lead to change. "The objectives and goals that the Navy tries to meet helps," he said. "With citizens, it depends on each household. Whereas with [the Navy], there is a more collective attitude." Whether or not the biggest display at the Earth Day celebration changed attitudes is unclear, but NAVFACWASH's new Chevy Volt certainly turned heads. The electric hybrid is one of twoVolts that now reside onboard NSF Indian Head, where they offer quick, reliable rides around base.The vehicle can go between 25 and 50 miles in all electric mode and takes four to 10 hours to charge, for 220V and 110V sources respectively.The maximum range on a tank of gas and a full charge is roughly 375 miles. "Depending on your lifestyle and situation, it can be a great car," mused Amanda Stella, a water media manager for NAVFACWASH assigned to Dahlgren. Stella did not get to drive the Volt far, but did take notes on her quick spin from PublicWorks to the parade field. "It's a very smooth ride.Transportation did a great job preparing it for us." While this particular Volt had only about 1,700 on the odometer, NAVFACWASH officials estimate their Volts will spare 29,000 gallons of gas, 260 tons of carbon emissions and $109,000 for taxpayers per year.
April is National Car Care Month Chances are if you own a car, it needs some work. Results of community car care events held throughout the country in 2011 show that many consumers are neglecting their cars, with more than eight out of 10 vehicles failing at least one component of the vehicle inspection process. National Car Care Month is the perfect time to focus on your vehicle's maintenance needs. To help motorists "be car care aware," the non-profit Car Care Council has introduced a new online service schedule, free to all motorists throughout the country. The personalized schedule and e-mail reminder service, powered by DriverSide.com, can be customized by motorists at the council's newly-introduced website, www.carcare.org. Whether you do it yourself or take your car to a professional service
technician, following a preventative maintenance schedule will help keep your vehicle safe, dependable and on the road longer. And our new system will give you the reminders that you need to stay on top of this maintenance. To help consumers become more comfortable with the auto service and repair process, the Car Care Council also recently introduced a new video entitled "Auto Service and Repair: What to Expect" that provides a wealth of information on such topics as finding the right auto repair facility, what to expect at the shop and what questions to ask. The video also covers the real truth about consumer rights and the manufacturer's warranty. For more helpful information, check out the council's free digital Car Care Guide.

Students: More to science than just worksheets and lab gear Continued from page 1
hear about student programs offering opportunities to come here during the summer." Boucher's tour immersed students in two intense hours of academic and practical railgun education featuring six stations called, "see the railgun (in slow motion); shoot a railgun; build a railgun; instrument a railgun; touch a railgun; and power a railgun." Each student demonstrated electromagnetic principles by building their own railgun, said Boucher. Then the high school students - from King George, Spotsylvania and Stafford Counties - learned how to measure the impact of their mini-railguns. In the "instrument a railgun" station, they used the electronic instrumentation used for rail gun testing - high speed video and accelerometers - to measure the velocity of an object in flight and calculate the object's kinetic energy. "They measured velocities of paintballs and compared it to railgun velocities," said Boucher. "They also shrunk alu-
minum cans by generating a magnetic field from capacitors similar to what we charge for the Navy railgun." "The Dahlgren scientists and engineers have done a really good job in terms of matching up the actual equations and the academic content the students are learning," said Commonwealth Governor's School teacher Kevin Bywaters. "Academically, this event gives our students a chance to see there's more to science than just worksheets and lab gear - there are real things being developed." That includes the Navy's first industry-built electromagnetic railgun prototype launcher. The students from Commonwealth Governor's School saw and touched the railgun first tested at Dahlgren Feb. 28, 2012. The firing on that date kicked off a two-month long test series by ONR to evaluate the first of two industry-built launchers. The tests will bring the Navy closer to a new naval gun system capable of extended ranges against surface, air and ground targets. "The big thing from my perspective is that our students saw some of the cutting edge technology being developed
right in their backyard," said Bywaters. "This is home to them and a lot of the engineers talking to us are from this area. This is really cool stuff that nobody else in the world is doing. It's happening here and they don't have to go somewhere else to find high tech jobs - they can do it right here." When fully developed, the electromagnetic railgun will give Sailors a dramatically increased multi-mission capability. Its increased velocity and extended range over traditional shipboard weapons will allow them to conduct precise, long-range naval surface fire support for land strikes; ship self-defense against cruise and ballistic missiles; and surface warfare to deter enemy vessels. The Navy's near-term goal is a 20 to 32-megajoule weapon that shoots a distance of 50 to 100 nautical miles. NSWCDD scientists and engineers share technology by participating in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics activities and other programs that promote the youth of our community to pursue careers in technical disciplines Through these programs and educational partnerships with local schools, NSWCDD actively seeks opportunities to give area youths a panorama of the world of science and engineering. NSWC Dahlgren's broad spectrum of unique resources, including workforce, infrastructure, and relationships with industry, have made it a premier naval scientific and engineering institution dedicated to solving a diverse set of complex technical problems confronting the warfighter, whether on land, in the air, on the sea or in space. Commonwealth Governor's School is a regional program for gifted students who apply for admission. It's a half day program where students take core subjects - math, English, science and social studies - and develop technology skills for effective communication, investigation, and presentation. Community partnerships provide year-round, as well as service-learning, opportunities.
Runner
Continued from page 4

Joint Warfare Analysis Center (JWAC) the next day. Begun in 1897 following the first modern Olympics, the Boston Marathon is the world's oldest annual marathon. It averages 20,000 runners a year with nearly 27,000 runners signed up this year alone and more than 500,000 spectators along the course. "While Boston attracts a large field of runners, it was fun and exciting to participate with so many people that enjoy running as much as I do," Rieth said. "The atmosphere was mutually supportive one since nearly all of the runners need to meet qualification standards to enter. They all know the work it took even to get into the event." To qualify for the Boston Marathon, for example, runners must first meet standards based on gender and age. For the 41-year-old Rieth, that meant running another marathon in less than three hours and 20 minutes. Other entries are reserved for race sponsors and charity runners where no qualification standard is required. Also, with such a large field of runners, it is impossible for everyone to cross the start line together. Runners are seeded in groups, which are divided into waves and corrals, Rieth said. Rieth was in the first wave of three. With 7,000 people in front of him, it took more than ten minutes after the start of the race for Rieth just to reach the start line. He estimates that it
took another eight or nine minutes after that to break free of the pack after the first mile and find his own pace. Once he hit his stride though, he maintained an 8:43 minute-a-mile pace the rest of the course. When not in training for a race, Rieth averages about 25 to 35 miles a week, increasing his mileage by 5 to 20 miles a week when preparing for a marathon, all of which helps him stay a spare 140 pounds. He begins training for a marathon about three months in advance. Rieth can be seen running around the Dahlgren base most weekday mornings when most employees are just arriving to work. Rieth joined the Air Force in 1988 and started working at JWAC in 2010 where he heads the command's human resource division. Originally from Towanda, Penn., he is married with two children and lives in King George, Va. Rieth started running regularly in 2001 and participated in his first marathon a year later. He sees running as an extension of the military culture, which instills physical fitness in its members, and he enjoys the simplicity of the sport - the runner, some modest equipment, the road or trail, and the clock. "It's hard to find another exercise that provides the bang for buck that running does," he said. Rieth is already making plans to compete in his next marathon in San Antonio, Tex. this November. As for returning to Boston, "If I qualify again, I'd like to go back in a few years," Rieth said.
