Keep calm and drive safely
By mc2 ramon go NAS Sigonella Public Affairs
NAS SIGONELLA, Sicily – Driving in Italy brings about a new style of driving you probably aren't used to and your skills and patience will be tested. What will you do when the car behind you is flashing their brights at you, the brake light on the motorcycle ahead of you is broken, and you’re approaching a round-about that has a cluster of signs pointing in every direction, except the one you need? These are all realistic challenges you can face in Sicily, but using safe driving techniques can help minimize preventable accidents that could cost you your life, or the lives of those around you. “Everybody knows that safe driving is important. The lack of enforcement off-base does not give [you] the right to drive recklessly,” said Patrick Bolton, NAS Sigonella’s safety director. The most commonly observed safety violations are speeding, improper passing, and failure to follow traffic signs, both on base and out in the community. Traffic signs aren’t just recommendations, but are in place to reduce the risk that comes with driving and it’s every driver’s responsibility to follow the regulations set in place. “Vehicles are heavy machines that can cause serious injury or death to self and someone’s loved one,” said Master-at-Arms 1st Class Raymond Nicholson, NAS Sigonella security department’s operations leading petty officer. “We understand sometimes someone may be running late for an appointment or work, and at the end of the day they may be ready to get home. But, ignoring the traffic instructions does not reduce time to the commute. Most individuals reported for speeding or passing several vehicles on the SP-106 arrive at the gate with the reporting party pulling up just behind them.” Although speeding is one of the most common traffic safety violations, drinking under the influence (DUI) can have particularly life-threatening consequences. Bolton somberly recalls a very tragic accident that occurred a few months ago. A Sailor got into his car and drove to a nearby club for a few laughs and drinks. A few hours later, he decided to drive to another local bar and drink some more. Beyond his limits, he got in his car, neglecting his seat-

belt and drove off. In less than two miles, he rolled his car. The Sailor survived, but his car did not. “Accidents have expensive repairs and even more so if you’re caught with a DUI because a DUI costs an average of $10,000 up front and a lot more in the long term,” said Bolton. Bolton continued to explain how much a first class petty officer would lose at their 15-year service with only five more years to retirement. Getting busted down to second class petty officer and topped off with an administration separation from the U.S. military, the Sailor could lose in the range of $400,000 over a lifetime in retirement pay and benefits. “A 30 euro taxi ride home compared to $400,000 in lost retirement and benefits is like a drop in the bucket,” said Bolton. That taxi ride home can be even more stress-free with the Arrive Alive card at your disposal. With no
involvement from your chain of command, you can use the Arrive Alive card to get home safely as long as you pay Morale Welfare & Recreation on your next paycheck. If there is genuine concern with how someone may be driving, you can first discuss it with the driver. Often the driver realizes the infraction or unsafe maneuver and will adjust their driving. If severely dangerous, you may also report it through Emergency Dispatch at DSN 624-5225 or 095-865225 with an accurate vehicle description. Please keep in mind there is no need to catch up to someone to get a plate number. The color, make of the vehicle and direction they are driving in is sufficient. Driving in Italy is a privilege, not a right. Adhering to local traffic regulations, practicing safe driving, and a little common sense can ensure that we all arrive at our destination safely.
Emergency preparedness: ready for a flood? by nas sigonella emergency operations center
NAS SIGONELLA, Sicily - The Secretary of the Navy urges all Sailors, civilian personnel, and families to assess their readiness at home and abroad and act during the month-long campaign and on America’s PrepareAthon! (AP!) National Day of Action on September 30. This week’s theme for Emergency Preparedness is Floods. Flooding is the most common type of natural disaster because it can occur anywhere anytime there is rainfall. It can be localized to a particular neighborhood or be widespread and affect entire cities or portions of states. Sometimes, flooding occurs over a matter of days giving people enough time to prepare. Sometimes flash flooding occurs within minutes with no time to prepare. Get Prepared! Here is how: 1. Be informed, and know flood terminology. • Flood Watch: Flooding is possible. Stay tuned to radio or TV for more information. • Flash Flood Watch: Flash flooding is possible. Stay tuned to radio or TV for more information. Be prepared to move to higher ground. • Flood Warning: Flooding is currently occurring or will occur soon. Listen for further instructions. If told to evacuate, do so immediately. • Flash Flood Warning: Flash flooding is currently occurring or will occur soon. Seek higher ground on foot immediately. 2. Determine whether your home or work place is in a predetermined floodplain. Avoid building in a floodplain unless you elevate and reinforce your home. If feasible, seal walls in basements with waterproofing compounds and construct barriers to redirect and stop floodwater from entering the building.
3. Obtain flood insurance. There is typically a 30-day waiting period from date of purchase before a new flood policy goes into effect. The National Flood Insurance Program is one available resource created by Congress https://www.floodsmart.gov/floodsmart/pages/about/nfip_overview.jsp 4. Identify where you can go if you need to reach higher ground quickly and on foot. 5. Elevate the furnace, water heater, and electrical panel in your home if you live in an area that has a high flood risk. 6. Consider installing “check valves” to prevent flood water from backing up into the drains of your home. 7. Make an evacuation plan as a family. 8. Make an emergency communication plan in case family members are separated. 9. Build an emergency kit.
What to do if there is a flood: 1. Move to higher ground immediately. Do not wait for instructions to move. If there is time, move important items to a top floor. 2. Stay tuned to the radio or TV for further information and instructions. 3. If you are ordered to evacuate: • Take only essential items, including your family emergency kit. • Turn off gas, electricity, and water. • Disconnect appliances. • Make sure your car’s gas tank is full. • Do not walk in moving water.

Direct Line The warmth of the welcomes I have been receiving has been absolutely awesome. I have joined the community as your new Director of our Fleet & Family Support Center, here on NAS 1. I am honored to have the chance to serve as lead for the fabulous team of professionals onboard, who offer a myriad of services to support you and your families. Whether active component, retired, veterans, or family members, we offer an open door to assist with questions for work and family life issues. My interest in working with families began during my own active duty, U. S. Army service. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Social Psychology from what was then Park College, and now is Park University. To continue in my educational endeavors, my Master’s degree in Human Relations was obtained through The University of Oklahoma, while I was stationed in Germany. I was very fortunate to do what I love most for 17 of my 20 years of service as a Behavioral Health Specialist. This field laid the foundation and provided experience working in the crisis intervention arenas: substance abuse counselor, Sexual Assault Response Coordinator, mental health technician, and later as a military service school instructor for Army, Air Force and Marines entering the field. Combining my education with the experience I gained has laid the foundation for the service I offer to this date. As time approached for my retirement, I knew I wanted to continue serving,

FFSC Director, Clara Schueler Sigonella Community, Hello.

thus entering the work force as a career civilian. Looking back on both my active duty and current civilian status, it has been an amazing journey with numerous overseas assignments throughout Germany (Nuremberg, Hahn AFB, Baumholder, Hanau, Wiesbaden), and three assignments to mainland Japan (Camp Zama and Naval Air Facility Atsugi). My three daughters proudly call themselves “military kids,” and continue the service tradition in each of their own civilian positions today. Although I was born in St. Louis, MO, I grew to love San Antonio, TX after three assignments there, so I decided to adopt that as my home. Being here in Sigonella reminds me a great deal of Texas overall. I love meeting and getting to know people, and thoroughly enjoy learning about the culture of different countries, which has contributed to my easy acclimation to the overseas environment. I’ve been able to travel extensively, so travel and reading head my list of hobbies, along with family time and spoiling my grandsons and all my four-legged fur children.
Response:
I’m sorry, but unfortunately this is well beyond NASSIG jurisdiction. Our postal officer, Wes Smith, himself a retired Air Force Master Sergeant, cites Department of Defense Postal Manual 4525.6M saying the “16-ounces restriction applies to incoming and outgoing mail” for retirees (AP1.3.14) and parcels shall be returned to the sender (C10.4.2.6) if they exceed weight restrictions. Also, in order to apply for a retiree box each applicant must sign a statement acknowledging these restrictions. In regards to using a friend to mail out your packages for you, I highly advise against it as the postal manual says using intermediaries is illegal and a quick way for you and your friend to lose postal privileges. While I certainly understand the frustration associated with these regulations for our retiree community, it is my job to enforce the rules and in turn everyone’s responsibility to abide by them.
Comment regarding "BZ for Memorial Park”:
I’d like to give a shout out to the wonderful people at NAVFAC and MWR. We love the new Memorial Park! It is safe, the layout is wonderful, and we appreciate a place for younger kids to play. Thank you for the hard work! Sincerely, Jen Bayer
Response:
Dear Jen, everyone appreciates an “attaboy” now and again and PW and MWR are no exception – thank you for writing! It is super when Sig’ Citizens express gratitude, recognizing hard work folks perform every day to improve lives in our community. Like you, I’m grateful for our redesigned Memorial park and its positive impact for our little ones and their parents.
Comment regarding "BZ for PW": My personal philosophy is to not leave you with “I don’t know” as the response to a question, but to follow that with, “let me do some research on that for you, and we both learn the answer.” I am honored to be here and to serve the NAS Sigonella community.
Commanding Officer's Suggestion Box The ICE/CO Suggestion Box is for our community and Commanding Officer to discuss, with an eye toward constant improvement, how we are excelling* and how we can improve**. The Signature and NASSIG Facebook Page typically publish comments and responses for the benefit of the Sigonella community. Comments/suggestions are useful when objective, constructive, and specific. ICE/CO Suggestion Box is NOT a forum for mean-spirited attacks. * If you submit a "BZ" about a specific person or department, PLEASE PROVIDE YOUR NAME in order to ensure comment authenticity and therefore publically recognize employees or organizations. ** The Commanding Officer will ensure a response to all signed comments/suggestions and the vast majority of anonymous ones but reserves the right to disregard those comments/ suggestions disinterested in the spirit of the program!

Interactive Customer Evaluation Comment regarding “rude Minimart employees”:
During a recent trip to the Mini-Mart I was upset by workers’ attitudes. Store employees were openly agitated that near closing time transient personnel were buying supplies before heading back to the air terminal to continue travels to combat zones. One worker stated she was going to lock the door because she’d been there over nine hours and doesn’t get paid for staying late. That might be the case, but it’s not appropriate to voice those concerns to customers. I hope something can be done to improve the customer service at the Mini-Mart.
Response:
I’m very disappointed to hear about your poor Mini-Mart customer service experience. NEX management has counseled all Mini-Mart associates to reemphasize customer service standards regardless of time of day or any other factor. Should you visit NASSIG again I’m very confident you’ll notice a marked improvement in our Mini-Mart customer service. If you have further questions or concerns regarding the Mini-Mart or any NASSIG NEX location please contact NEX General Manager, Julie Herring, at 624-4379 or at Julie.Herring@NEXWEB.org.
Comment regarding“AFN Radio Station Volume”:
Can something be done about the AFN radio volume discrepancy. Some commercials nearly blow you out the window while the music and announcements are at times so soft you have to raise the volume to "11."
Response:
Thanks for sending along your observation. While 105.9 radio level differences should already be corrected, AFN Europe is actively working on a permanent fix to normalize the audio levels on Sigonella AFN360 internet radio. We ask that you please be patient and soon we will find a permanent fix. In the meantime, if from time to time you need that extra push over the cliff, you know what to do - put it up to "11," one louder.

I went to the post office to ship a small box to the States and was informed by an employee that retirees are not allowed to ship more than 16 oz. by military

I’d like to recognize the quick support by Public Works earlier this month. First, our clogged kitchen sink at NRTF Niscemi was promptly fixed – a mission essential repair and a much bigger deal than meets the eye! More recently PW moved four truckloads of electronic equipment from Niscemi to NAS 2 on short notice. Instead of simply saying “no” they found a way to help us, which in the end was a big win for conserving tax dollars. Many thanks to our PW shipmates for their “can do” attitude! Very Respectfully, LT Matthew Brassart, NCTS
Response:
Dear Matt, thank you for relaying your positive experiences with our Public Works team. We are by no means perfect, but the lengths PW went to assist your team is the kind of interaction I hope our ‘corporate’ customers will become accustomed to. Again, thank you for the feedback.
Changes coming to internet, cable & phone services NEXCOM and NCTS Sicily wants to keep the Sigonella community fully informed about changes that are expected in the future for the Internet, Cable TV and Phone Services for residents of Marinai Government Housing and Unaccompanied Housing Barracks. Sometime between September and December of 2015, services will transition from NCTS Base Communications Office (BCO) to the Navy Exchange (NEX). Preparations are on-going for this transition. There is not a specific transition date yet, but NCTS Sicily wants to keep the community informed in the meantime. NCTS Sicily has to come into compliance with a congressional mandate of being financially audit compliant. In order to achieve this compliance there has to be some changes to the services that are being provided through the BCO. Currently members in housing can contract for internet service, DSN phone service and IPTV through the BCO. As we transition into audit readiness, these services will be transitioned to the NEX. Many aspects of this are still being worked out as the NEX prepares to assume these services. For instance they are setting up billing software, preparing for payment acceptance at the NEX Customer Service, and preparing a contract with TELECOM Italia. There will be an increase in price, but at this time we are unaware of the increase.
The Sigonella community needs to be prepared for future announcements with instructions about transitioning services from BCO to the NEX. There are about 800 customers that will be involved in this transition. We do not expect disruptions in internet or TV services during the transition. Disruptions in phone services can be expected during the re-configuration of the switch at the Marinai housing complex. Once details are finalized, customers will need to go to the NEX to do a new contract for services. Customers will be able to make an appointment to alleviate the inconvenience of standing in line. We will transition customers in a three-week period. Customers with last names starting with A through I will call for appointments during week one of the transition, customers with last names starting with J though R will call for appointments the second week and the following customers with last names beginning with S through Z will be done the third week. Please keep in mind, as we transition the BCO will provide a final bill which will need to be paid prior to starting a new contract with the NEX. We will continue to keep the community informed through service announcements as information becomes available. Other alternatives are available for customers to purchase and use, such as WIFI Hot spots or cellular connectivity through an Internet Service Provider (ISP).

NCTS Sicily raises EIDWS pennant over command by ET2 Stefani Vallejos NCTS Sicily
NAS SIGONELLA, Sicily - The enlisted Sailors at Naval Computer and Telecommunications Station (NCTS) Sicily have achieved an important goal by officially becoming the 8th command in the Navy to raise the Enlisted Information Dominance Warfare Specialist (EIDWS) pennant which was raised over the command, Aug. 10, 2015. "Achieving the pennant was challenging since 100 percent of a command's eligible personnel must be actively enrolled in the program and be qualified within a specified time period," said Chief Information Systems Technician Antione Flanagan, NCTS Sicily's EIDWS program coordinator. "With Sailors constantly checking in and out, leadership has been engaged to track training and progression and help our Sailors succeed." The EIDWS insignia signifies the Sailor is competent in his or her rating and has acquired additional general knowledge to enhance his or her understanding of the role of the Information Dominance Corps (IDC) as it pertains to warfighting, mission effectiveness, and command survivability. Sailors had to spend hours scheduling extensive training around their rotating watches to provide their important Information Dominance Warfare knowledge to all other watch standers and to the many other rates that are not typically a part of the IDC. Sailors who earned their IDW ranged from Seabees, supply, admin and engineering rates assigned to NCTS Sicily. Additionally, Sailors were provided with ample opportunity to meet requirements and have Navy Information Dominance Forces recognize NCTS Sicily as the eighth command in the Navy authorized to fly the pennant. "This is a remarkable achievement for the command!” said Cmdr. Regina Cox, NCTS Sicily commanding officer. “The pennant symbolizes the extraordinary deck plate leadership that resulted in this achievement for a program with over 140 Sailors enrolled." Receiving the EIDWS pennant is a coveted honor for IDC commands and illustrates the level of significance and investment the Navy's senior leadership now attaches to information-centric operations and the development of information dominance warfighting capacity.

As little as six inches of water can cause loss of control and stalling of a vehicle. • If floodwaters rise around your car, abandon the car and move to higher ground if you can do so safely. You and the vehicle can be swept away quickly. • Follow the designated evacuation plan, and expect a high volume of traffic.
If you are NOT ordered to evacuate: • Stay tuned to emergency station on radio or TV. • Listen for further instructions. • Prepare to evacuate to a shelter or neighbor’s home if your home is damaged. • Once you are in a safe place, muster with your command if you are military or civilian personnel or a member of the selective reserves. What to do after a flood: 1. Listen to news reports for additional flooding or flash floods that may occur and to make sure water supplies are not contaminated. 2. Beware of downed power lines. 3. Help emergency workers who will be assisting people in flooded areas by staying off the roads and out of the way. 4. Return home only when authorities indicate it is safe.

Ognina Virgin Mary Festival to be held in Catania Story by ognina parish press office
It’s that time of the year again! The Ognina fishermen’s neighborhood in Catania is almost ready to pay homage to the beloved Holy Mary who is believed to protect fishing boats' crews during their work out at sea. The festival’s preparation begins this weekend with the highlights being the Sept. 8, 12 and 13 celebrations. Catholics venerate a countless number of patron saints but honor Mary with a special devotion. Millions of people around the world and in the Spanish/Italian-speaking countries have named their daughters Maria. She is indeed regarded as being the ultimate mother figure because, thanks to her holiness, piety, and humbleness, she is an example of godliness, strength, and maternal instinct. Thousands of pilgrims and tourists coming from the city of Catania, its surroundings and other places around the globe swarm into the small alleys of this lively fishermen’s neighborhood to see this amazing festival blending faith, good Sicilian food and folklore. Many of them attend to fulfill the vows (ex-voto) they have made to the venerated Madonna for granting a wish or bringing themselves or their beloved relatives and friends safely through an accident or an illness. Tradition holds that on March 26, 1933, a violent sea storm threatened the gulf of Ognina in Catania. Part of the pier and some boats were damaged. The houses overlooking the coast were lapped against by the waves. Chronicles of the time estimated that the waves were over 40 feet tall. Therefore, in order to avert the danger local fishermen turned to the Virgin Mary for help. They placed the statue of the Madonna on the church’s square, after moving it from the altar of the Ognina Sanctuary. Hours later, the sea calmed down; a miracle. This is one of the extraordinary events that strengthened the devotion of the Ognina fishermen toward the Virgin Mary. Today, they still pray to her in times of illness or help in getting out of a difficult situation. As in the past, today’s fishermen still exchange a special greeting among each other, as a tribute to both Jesus and the Virgin Mary. As two boats cross during night fishing, a crew leader says “Virgin Mary!” and the other replies “Jesus.” Then, they exchange information on the outcome of the fishing. The fishermen’s strong devotion brought
From Sept. 5 through 14, the coastal community of Ognina in Catania will hold the traditional festival honoring the Madonna di Ognina or Virgin Mary Festival with religious processions both at sea and through the streets of the neighborhood, fireworks, a mouthwatering bluefish festival and food booths.

them to celebrate a yearly festival to honor the Virgin Mary. The origin of the festival dates back to the 19th century. The financial support to organize the festival was initially given by the residents of the area. Money was collected and put into a pottery moneybox, named Caruseddi. The moneyboxes were later broken during a short ceremony held on the Friday preceding the actual festival celebrated on Sept. 8. Recently, it was decided that each fisherman, instead of giving a donation would allocate half of his own weekly income, named the menza parti to support the organization of the festival. Originally, a statue depicting the Virgin Mary was brought in procession on a wooden carriage through the few practicable streets of Ognina district. Then, on Sept. 12, 1889, a fire occurred after the festival as the devotees left the candles lit on the wooden carriage to honor the
Madonna. The wax melted and set the both the carriage and the painting on fire. Thus, a new statue was needed to replace the damaged one. While this new statue was being carved in Paris, a wax sculpture depicting the child Virgin Mary (named bammina which in Italian means female child) was temporary displayed in the sanctuary. The new statue, carved by a French monk, was put back its place in 1889. The Sanctuary that hosts the precious statue was built in 1392, although historic chronicles state that the named Santa Maria di Lognina was already paying tributes to the Vatican in 1308. In a 16th century document a local notary named Merlino, wrote that the church had miraculously survived the Terremoto magnus (the big earthquake) that destroyed the local area in 1542.

USS Fort Worth completes 2015 CARAT joint exercise By MC2 Joe Bishop
USS Fort Worth Public Affairs
SULU SEA (NNS) -- The littoral combat ship USS Fort Worth (LCS 3) wrapped up its participation in Cooperation Afloat Readiness and Training (CARAT) exercises with both Indonesia and Malaysia following an Aug. 21 closing ceremony held in Sandakan, Malaysia. CARAT is a series of bilateral naval exercises between the U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, and the armed forces of Bangladesh, Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Timor-Leste. In deepening navy-to-navy relationships, Fort Worth visited Surabaya, Indonesia, for the first time in her 16-month rotational deployment to U.S. 7th Fleet. This port visit is particularly significant for Fort Worth, as
she was part of the Indonesian-led Air Asia search efforts in the Java Sea. "It was a pleasure operating at sea with our TNI-AL (Tentara Nasional Indonesia - Angkatan Laut) naval partners during the sea phase of CARAT Indonesia," said Cmdr. Christopher Brown, commanding officer of Fort Worth. "Fort Worth once again demonstrated its combat capabilities and relevance in the region while fostering long-term personal and professional relationships with our Southeast Asian partners." CARAT is a model of how the TNI-AL and U.S. Navies can cooperate and work together to enhance interoperability, develop relationships and address shared maritime security priorities, as in the visit, board, search and seizure (VBSS) exercises. TNI Sailors conducted their first VBSS boarding of Fort Worth during this year's CARAT. "During CARAT Indonesia LCS SUW DET FOUR (Surface Warfare Mission Package, Detachment 4) and the Indonesian Navy had an outstanding opportunity to interact and exchange VBSS tactics and hold discussions about our different capabilities", said Lt. j.g. Andrew Pena, officer in charge of Detachment 4. "These positive interactions culminated in two successful at-sea VBSS exercises between our Navies." This year's CARAT Indonesia also provided the opportunity for TNI pilots to practice deck landings on the flight deck of Fort Worth with a MesserschmittBolkow-Blohm BO-105 Indonesian navy helicopter. CARAT Malaysia 2015 consists of five days of shorebased and at-sea training events designed to address shared maritime security concerns, build relationships, and enhance interoperability among participating forces. "This marks the 21st year that the U.S. and Malaysian Armed Forces have come together for CARAT and our enhanced military partnership today reflects the maturity of this relationship," said Rear Adm. Charlie Williams, commander, Task Force 73. "Partnerships matter in this region; sustained partnerships matter even more." The Royal Malaysian Navy for the first time conducted deck landing practice with its Super Lynx helicopter on the flight deck of Fort Worth. The bilateral and multilateral exercises provide a regional venue to develop strong maritime partnerships that contribute to the greater peace and stability of the region. "CARAT is a practical way for our two navies to address shared maritime security priorities in a realistic training environment," said Capt. H.B. Le, commodore, Destroyer Squadron 7.

Body rafting at Alcantara Gorge by nicole ybarra NAS Sigonella Public Affairs
NAS SIGONELLA, Sicily - Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to go from the top of a gorge to the bottom, on your back, engulfed by rushing rapids, as you are slammed into the sides of jagged rock formations with only a wetsuit to protect you? If so, then body rafting may be for you. Alcantara Gorge is a breathtaking natural and geological park offering a range of activities which cater to both ends of the thrill-seeking spectrum: trekking and swimming in the chilly, clear water, to human pinball, also known as body rafting. Once suited up, knowledgeable guides instruct you in proper form (just play dead, they tell you) and then toss you into the rapids as crowds of sunbathing locals gather to watch you meet your untimely demise. The body rafting adventure begins at the Spiaggetta delle Gole (Gorges beach), winding through the river canyon downstream through small gorges, waterfalls and creeks that are often invisible or unreachable on foot. At various segments of the tour, each member of the group makes a graceful attempt to move from one point to the next, and at one point you take turns pushing each other backwards off of a tall rock into the water below. When - or if - you make it to the bottom, so begins the journey back to the starting point - climbing, jumping and swimming against the current. Body rafting is a physically exhausting yet rewarding way to take in the natural beauty of the Gorge and a great opportunity to enjoy all that Sicily has to offer. For more information on body rafting and for directions to the park, you can visit the Alcantara Gorge website (http://www.golealcantara.com/en/attivita-Body-Rafting).

Emergencies of the Heart By LCDR Edward Erwin NAS Sigonella Religious Ministries
NAS SIGONELLA, Sicily - The old adage states: “Hope for the best and prepare for the worst.” How then do we prepare for the worst when it comes to natural disasters and emergency situations? We plan, train, collaborate with experts, and evaluate our responses to hypothetical scenarios. But how do we prepare for the emotional crises that can shake our worlds and challenge the very best of us? What happens when we face marital discord, family quarrels, job-related conflicts, health issues, and financial problems? These are the emotional emergencies more likely to threaten our personal worlds than natural disasters or man-made catastrophes. Even as we prepare for potential emergencies on base, we plan, train, collaborate with experts, and hone our skills for personal wellbeing and resilience. Routine PT, college classes, worship services, marriage retreats, travel, community relations, to name just a few, help develop individual character and deepen our capacity to bounce back from common stressors. Positive habits every day build emotional stamina that can help

earthquake a group of prisoners were temporary locked up in the church since the prison was destroyed. In 1676, historian Giovanni Andrea Massa, wrote that pilgrims from all over the world came to the Ognina Sanctuary to thank the Virgin Mary for the graces (healing or other miracles) she had granted them. After a terrible earthquake in 1693, the church was rebuilt in a new location facing north. The church consists of three naves. In the 17th century, Giacomo Vignerio, a Raphael student, painted its interior. The night before the big Sept. 8 religious event, fishermen traditionally host a bluefish festival (Sagra del Pesce Azzurro) by offering freshly grilled fish to festival goers in piazza Ognina. On Tuesday, Sept. 8, at 8 a.m., the festival opens with the Svelata, the unveiling of the statue depicting the Virgin Mary. The statue is lighted and placed next to the tabernacles to symbolize the union with her son Jesus. Holy masses will be celebrated at 10 a.m., 12 and 7 p.m. At 5 p.m., the archbishop of Catania, after a fireworks show, will celebrate a solemn mass before the church’s portico. A music show will end the celebration at 9:30 p.m. On Sept. 9 at 10 a.m. and midday a holy mass will be celebrated. At 11 a.m., local children will be blessed during the “Family Consecration Ceremony.” The breathtaking Processione della Madonna a mare, the fascinating procession of the Virgin Mary at sea will begin at 6 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 12. The statue is placed on a boat and brought in procession around the gulf of Ognina. In the afternoon of Sunday, Sept. 13 at 5 p.m., the statue depicting the Virgin Mary will be brought in procession through the streets of the Ognina district. A spectacular fireworks show will be held at 11:30 p.m. The port of Ognina is located in Catania and is easy to reach. From the Catania Train Station take Viale Africa. Once you get to Piazza Europa, turn right and drive for about a mile along the Riviera. You will then reach a little port right before the overpass that leads toward Acicastello. The church is located under the road. For more information and detailed festival schedules visit www.santamariadiognina.it.

Vacation Bible School provides fun and fellowship for children

NAS SIGONELLA, Sicily - As the parents dropped off their children for Vacation Bible School (VBS) this August in the blazing heat at 9 am, there was one goal: give these military kids living in another country, far from friends and family the best week of their summer. The children met their crew leaders and were ushered into the sanctuary of the Chapel and into the world of “Everest: Conquering Challenges with God’s Mighty Power.” At ‘base camp’ they sang, danced, and learned their central point for each day. This portion was led by the energized and talented Briget Alee and her helper Jodi Mitchell. During this time the children were also introduced to a character named ‘Trek’ whose skits helped to reinforce the central point. After base camp, the children would go to their designated “stations” which included: Bible Expeditions, imagination station, and many other exciting activities, with a snack served to all the kids in the middle of their station times. Each station leader and volunteer was hand selected for their position and really put their heart and soul into teaching the children each day about God's love for them. After the stations and snack, the children would once more go back to the sanctuary for “Summit” which included more singing, dancing, lessons, and skits. This week of VBS would not have been
possible without all of the volunteers who worked directly and indirectly with the children all week. From high school students, college students, and members of the NASSIG community who helped to lead and direct the children; to deployed Marines, Chaplains, Religious Program Specialists, and others who worked behind the scenes cleaning up and making sure everything was in order to run smoothly. In particular we had one volunteer who really went above and beyond to help work with the preschool children. AM3 Rebecca Irvin was deployed to NASSIG with VP 47 originating from Battle Ground Washington State, and during the time when she would normally be sleeping after duty, she would come and help the children with a smile and good attitude every single day. Elle Davis, one of the campers this week said, “I had an awesome time, and really enjoyed the Bible Expeditions which focused on reading the Bible and learning about God's Mighty Power!” Based off of the kid’s reactions at the end of the week, it was a resounding success. There are many others who gave up their time and reworked their schedules during this week in order to make it special and meaningful for the kids on behalf of the Chapel staff thanks to all for making this event a great and enjoyable time! Last but not least, a special thank you needs to go out to Heather Wilson for organizing and overseeing the protestant VBS this year.

American Red Cross urges emergency preparedness By kala kirk American Red Cross, Sigonella NAS SIGONELLA, Sicily — Disasters can strike at any time, and the most common disaster threat people face across the country is a fire in their home. The American Red Cross, Sigonella, Italy, encourages everyone to be ready for emergencies like home fires by creating a disaster plan for their household during National Preparedness Month. “Having an emergency plan is an important step so everyone in the household knows what they should do if something happens,” said Samantha Wudel, SAF Regional Program Manager. “We believe people should mark National Preparedness Month by creating or updating their plan.” In celebration of National Preparedness Month the American Red Cross, Sigonella Italy is hosting three main events. On Tuesday, September 1, 2015 we will kick off with a “Preparedness Scavenger Hunt” at the Commissary. Get the kids involved in disaster preparedness while you shop. There will also be a coloring contest. Use the coloring sheet printed here or print a copy from our Facebook page (Facebook.com/ ARCSigonella). The “Coloring Contest” offer parents a chance to review the family disaster plan with their children. The Sigonella American Red Cross will take entries through September 30th at the Red Cross office. A committee will choose a winner and their family will receive a family-sized emergency preparedness (NEO) kit. The coloring sheet will also be available on the Sigonella American Red Cross FB page, at the Red Cross office, or ask your local Ombudsmen! Finally, to close out the month the American Red Cross will be setting up a “Fire Prevention House” in Marinai. This will close out Preparedness month and kick off Fire Prevention Month. MAKE A PLAN: Everyone in the household should help put the emergency plan together so they know what they should do if something occurs. Because everyone may not be together at home when a disaster happens, the plan should include ways to contact one another and two places to meet – one near the home in case of a sudden emergency like a fire, and one outside the neighborhood in case circumstances prevent people from returning home. The plan should also identify an emergency contact person from outside the area in case local telephone lines are overloaded or out of service. RED CROSS APPS: The Red Cross has developed mobile apps that provide information on what to do before, during and after emergencies. The all-inclusive Emergency App and other preparedness apps have a “Make a Plan” feature on how to develop an emergency plan. Users can develop their plan and share it with household members through the apps. People can also download the Monster Guard App so 7- to 11-year-olds will have a free, fun gaming environment to learn how to prevent emergencies like home fires and stay safe in an emergency or severe weather. The free apps can be found in smartphone app stores by searching for the American Red Cross or going to redcross.org/apps. For more information on how to prepare for all types of emergencies, people can visit redcross.org or contact the American Red Cross, Sigonella Italy at DSN 624-4900 / 095-86-4900, email sigonella@redcross.org or visit the Facebook page at Facebook.com/ARCSigonella.
