DoD Officials Announce European Infrastructure Consolidation

By Air Force Tech. Sgt. Jake Richmond DoD News, Defense Media Activity

More than 200 Sailors from Naples-area commands took the E-7 Navywide advancement exam in the Child and Youth Programs Gym on the Support Site of Naval Support Activity Naples Jan. 15. The Navy Advancement Center will rank order candidates in each rating by their Final Multiple Score (FMS). The new FMS formula for E-7 states the exam score counts toward 40 percent of the score, while the candidate's performance mark average counts toward 60 percent. Only 1st class petty officers with an FMS that falls in the top 60 percent, among all rank-ordered candidates in a rating, will be considered E-7 Selection Board Eligible.

Hagel Expresses Condolences to French Defense Minister DoD News, Defense Media Activity

In a Jan. 9 phone call to French Defense Minister JeanYves Le Drian, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel conveyed his condolences for the loss of life in last week’s terrorist attack and promised him any help the Defense Department can provide, Pentagon Press Secretary Navy Rear Adm. John Kirby said.

In a statement summarizing the call, which Kirby noted had been scheduled for some time, the admiral said Hagel also thanked Le Drian for France’s strong and enduring partnership over the years, specifically for its counterterrorism leadership in Africa’s Sahel region.

Significant Contributions to Campaign Against ISIL In addition, the admiral said, Hagel commended France’s significant contributions to the campaign to counter the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.

“Minister Le Drian wished Secretary Hagel well as he prepares to depart the Pentagon, and the two reflected on the friendship they have enjoyed,” Kirby said.

Defense Department officials today announced plans to consolidate some military infrastructure in Europe to save the U.S. government more than $500 million annually while maintaining capability and commitments.

The plans represent the culmination of the European Infrastructure Consolidation process, a two-year effort that was designed to ensure long-term efficiency and effectiveness of the U.S. presence in Europe, officials said.

The consolidation incorporates the return of 15 sites to their host nations, part of U.S. European Command’s continued effort to remove nonenduring sites from its real-property inventory and allow more resources to be focused on other Eucom mission requirements.

Not Affecting Capability “In the end, this transformation of our infrastructure will help maximize our military capabilities in Europe and help strengthen our important European partnerships so that we can best support our NATO allies and partners in the region,” Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said. Hagel discussed the decisions yesterday with his counterparts in the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy and Portugal – the four countries affected most by the actions.

Derek Chollet, assistant secretary of defense for international security affairs told reporters at the Pentagon today that European and trans-Atlantic security is more important than ever.

“We are not affecting our operational capability,” Chollet said. “The EIC adjustments do not diminish our ability to meet our commitments to allies and partners.

Now- Feb. 6: Naval IG Area Visit Internet-Based Survey

terested community members can also visit www.ascnapoli.com for team information.

We’re halfway through January and if you’re like me, you’re already thinking about getting those taxes filed. Active duty Air Force, Army and Navy, should have access to their W-2s on Saturday, January 24th. That doesn’t mean you should wait until then to get your records and information together. Start early so you can get your return as soon as possible. The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program will be up and running this tax season at both the Support Site and Capodichino. The foundation of the VITA program is volunteers, so if you’re interested and able to support, please contact Lt. Tibaneli at 081568-6702 to register for the Jan. 26- 30 IRS training. You’ll receive free training and get a certificate upon completion; not to mention you’ll be able to help our community get through another tax season.

As we start another long weekend with the chance to travel and explore, I ask that you keep in mind and reflect on the amazing efforts put forth by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. His life’s journey and rise as a public figure still inspires the Nation and continues to encourage all U.S. citizens to live in harmony and realize their full potential. He applied the principals of nonviolent protest to force our country to reflect on equality and change laws related to voting rights, equal pay, quality education for all and racial segregation.

Dr. King was a towering leader and became a national figure in the 1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott after Rosa Parks’ arrest. It was the 1963 March on Washington with more than 250,000 participants where Dr. King delivered the famous “I Have a Dream” speech in front of the Lincoln Memorial to promote equal rights and communicate his vision for America. The event had a significant and lasting impact on our country’s history and led to the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. He received the Nobel Peace Prize shortly after.

The Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial was opened on the National Mall in 2011 with inscriptions on the walls from many of King’s sermons and speeches. On Monday, take the time to remember Dr. King, his contribution to our culture, and the sacrifices so many have made to improve our country. On Tuesday, Jan. 27 I invite everyone to attend the Combined Multi-Cultural Heritage Committee’s celebration of Dr. King. It will take place in the Capodichino theater from 11 a.m. to noon and is open to everyone.

There have been a lot of school events, competitions and meetings lately, as well as the announcement of some new scholarship opportunities.

Thank you for taking part in these activities and supporting our NHS Wildcats sports teams, who are having an amazing year. The UNDEFEATED wrestling team will be hosting their last home meet of the season next Saturday at 10 a.m. They’ll be using the meet to also raise cancer awareness, which is an impressive goal for our wrestlers. They’re asking that attendees wear pink as they fill the high school’s stands and there will be speeches given by high school members who have been touched by cancer before the match starts. It should be a great event and hopefully our Wildcats wrestlers finish their season undefeated. Come out and support your teams, support the boosters, and support your community!

Enjoy your weekend, be safe and look out for one another.

The Naval Inspector General conducts Readiness and Quality-of-Life Area Visits to Navy regions and activities worldwide. As part of the upcoming Naples IG Area Visit, all active-duty and Reserve Sailors and civilian employees are requested to participate in an internet-based survey to capture concerns and identify areas to improve readiness.

ITALIAN NEWS BRIEFS

THE INSIDE PAGE VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

COMPILED BY TERESA MEROLA NSA NAPLES PUBLIC AFFAIRS

NAPOLITANO RESIGNS Giorgio Napolitano, President of the Republic of Italy resigned Wednesday after almost nine years in office.

Napolitano, 89, was elected in 2006 and in 2013 he reluctantly agreed to a second term to avoid a political crisis, after parliament failed to vote in a successor. He always said he would not serve all of his second seven-year term, but vowed to guarantee stability in the country’s top institutional positions throughout Italy’s duty presidency of the EU, which ended Jan. 13.

Napolitano announced two weeks ago that his advanced age had made it difficult for him to perform the duties of his office. Senate Speaker Pietro Grasso will take over the head of state’s responsibilities on an interim basis. By the end of this month, a special session of lawmakers from both houses of parliament and representatives from regional governments will start voting on his successor.

SMOKING BAN EXPANDING Italy’s Health Minister Beatrice Lorenzin is working to ban smoking in parks, beaches and in cars where children are present. In 2005, Italy became the third country in Europe to ban smoking in indoor public places including bars, cafes, nightclubs and cinemas. According to Istat, the national statistical agency, the number of smokers has fallen from 23.8 to 10.5 percent since then. Recently, Italy banned smoking in school buildings and in hospitals following European directives. Measures were taken to fight smoking, especially by young people, and the minimum age to buy cigarettes was raised to 18.

FIAT-CHRYSLER TO ADD 1,500 NEW JOBS Fiat-Chrysler will create 1,500 new jobs at its plant in Melfi, Basilicata region over the next three months. The plant received more than one billion euros for the production of the Jeep Renegade and Fiat500X models ranked among the top 10 selling vehicles in Italy. Chief Executive Officer Sergio Marchionne said that Fiat will sell five million cars this year and this is a positive signal for Italy. Experts

say the European auto industry, hit hard by the economic crisis, is benefiting from the downward spiral of oil prices.

NATIONAL MUSEUMS LOOKING FOR NEW DIRECTORS The Italian Ministry of Culture Dario Franceschini launched last week an international selection process for the appointment of directors for 20 of Italy’s top museums. Franceschini started to re-organize the Italian museum system to better preserve and valorize the national cultural heritage.

The international selection process regards the appointments of directors for the 20 autonomous museum including the Borghese Gallery, the National Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art and the National Gallery of Ancient Art in Rome, the Uffizi Gallery, the Academy Gallery and the Bargello National Museum in Florence, the Academy Gallery in Venice, the Capodimonte Museum and the National Archaeological Museum in Naples, the Brera Gallery in Milan, the Royal Palace in Caserta, the Estense Gallery in Modena, the Marche National Gallery in Urbino, the Umbria National Gallery in Perugia, the National Archaeological Museum in Reggio Calabria, the National Archaeological Museum in Taranto, the Archaeological Park at Paestum, the Ducale Palace in Mantova, the Royal Palace in Genoa and the Royal Palaces in Turin. The job application was published on the culture ministry website and appeared in the British weekly magazine The Economist last Friday.

The deadline for applications is Feb. 15 and the candidates will be screened by a panel of five experts. The selected candidates will remain in post for four years with a gross annual salary of between 78,000 and 145,000 euros, plus a possible productivity bonus of up to 40,000 euros. There have been also consultations to choose directors for 17 new museum centers. Reforms started last July with the late opening hours and entry fees at State-run museums, monuments and archaeological sites.

The top sites for visitor numbers are still the Colosseum in Rome, the archaeological area of Pompeii outside Naples and the Uffizi gallery in Florence.

THIS WEEK IN NAVY HISTORY

Partnerships Matter Adm. Mark Ferguson, commander, U.S. Naval Forces Europe-Africa, was in Morocco meeting with the U.S. Ambassador to Morocco, as well as his counterparts in the Royal Moroccan Navy. About 90 percent of all global trade moves on the world’s oceans. Trade is the driver for all nations to realize greater prosperity; greater prosperity enables increased investments in navies and other security organizations; and greater security leads to a more stable world.

For this reason, safe, secure waterways are a benefit to all nations.

On Jan. 14, 1863, Secretary of the Navy Gideon Welles signed U.S. Navy General Order No. 4, the Emancipation Proclamation. Three-and-a-half months earlier, on Sept. 22, 1862, shortly after the Battle of Antietam – the first major battle of the Civil War to take place on Union soil and the bloodiest single-day in American history – President Abraham Lincoln gathered his cabinet to present the latest version of his Emancipation Proclamation. Lincoln had been working on the document but had been advised to step cautiously and slowly regarding its public announcement.

Knowing the proclamation would have historic and far-reaching ramifications The proclamation was published that same day and it took effect Jan. 1, 1863, affirming the emancipation of slaves in all states still in rebellion.

ENERGY CONSERVATION Energy Audit From the NSA Naples Energy Management Team

NSA Naples is participating in an energy audit. The audit will take place now through Jan. 23, 2015. The auditors will be visiting various spaces throughout the installations to include; Support Site, Capo, Carney Park and Lago Patria. During their survey the auditors may ask the occupants questions about the hours of operation for each building. They also may take photos of various buildings as well as the electrical and mechanical components contained inside them. This survey is used to gather information about our energy usage, identify components that may cause energy waste, and develop energy-saving projects that can reduce unnecessary consumption. You can assist the auditors by answering questions about the facilities to the best of your abilities. NSA Naples is striving to take energy conservation to a whole new level and we cannot achieve this goal without everyone’s support.

From Naples Middle High School

Naples Middle High School has completed its first year as the only international chapter of the Health Occupations Student of America (HOSA).

Through this career-intensive program, 39 NMHS students have had the opportunity of visiting with various Naval Hospital health care professionals.

Getting to see firsthand what potential jobs are at the Naval Hospital and how

they can plan their path to success has helped the students discover what health care field they may choose to pursue after they graduate.

Serving future health professionals since 1976, HOSA is a national student organization, which promotes health career opportunities in the health/medical care industry for high school students.

By promoting leadership and motivation, HOSA helps aspiring health care career seekers become better

health care professionals, and ultimately enhancing the delivery of health care to all people.

The Naples High School HOSA chapter was started in September 2013 by Naples High School nurse Cristina Hall, RN, BSN. Since the beginning of the school year the students have visited the Physical Therapy department and the Surgery Ward, and also have had an Occupational Therapist as a guest speaker.

Obama Unveils Next Steps in Keep Your Family Safe: Cybersecurity Plan Practice Operational

By Air Force Tech. Sgt. Jake Richmond DoD News, Defense Media Activity

Continuing an effort to help defend the nation’s computer-connected systems, President Barack Obama Jan. 13 announced today additional steps that call for more information sharing, modernized law enforcement and updated security data breach reporting.

“Cyber threats pose an enormous challenge for our country,” the president said.

“As long as I’m president, protecting America’s digital infrastructure is going to remain a top national security priority.”

Speaking at the National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center in Arlington, Virginia,

“As long as I’m president, protecting America’s digital infrastructure is going to remain a top national security priority.”

Obama said since much of the nation’s critical infrastructure -- financial systems, power grids, pipelines, health care systems -- runs on networks connected to the Internet, cybersecurity

is a matter of public safety and of public health. He noted that most of that infrastructure is owned and operated by the private sector, but government and non-government entities are “still not always working as closely together” as they should.

Better Information Sharing “We’re proposing new cybersecurity legislation to promote the greater information sharing we need between the government and private sector,” Obama explained. “It includes liability protections for companies that share information on cyber threats.

It includes potential safeguards to ensure that government protects privacy and civil liberties, even as we’re doing our job of safeguarding America’s critical information networks.”

The president also announced the “Summit on Cybersecurity and Consumer Protection,” which is scheduled for Feb. 13 at Stanford University in California. He said the event is intended to help shape public- and private-sector efforts to protect American people and companies from growing threats to consumers and commercial networks.

“Neither government nor the private sector can defend the nation alone,” Obama said. “It’s going to have to be a shared mission -- government and industry working hand-in-hand as partners. And that’s why I’ve said that protecting our digital infrastructure is a national security priority and a national economic priority.”

Shared Responsibility Even before the internationally reported hack of Sony Pictures, the issue of cybersecurity had gained prominence within the Defense Department. In November of last year, Navy Adm. Michael S. Rogers, the commander of U.S. Cyber Command, the director of the National Security Agency, and chief of the Central Security Service, told the Reagan National Defense Forum audience that network defense isn’t an eitheror proposition that can be neatly divided into publicand private-sector responsibilities.

"This is the ultimate team sport," he said. "There is no single sector, there is no single element of this population, there is no single element within the government that has the total answer. It will take all of us working together to make this work."

Rogers has used the term “cyber blur” to describe the convoluted way cyber attacks are both perpetrated by enemies and defended by American entities. Last October, he called for leaders in all kinds of institutions to drive the cultural changes needed to allow new cybersecurity partnerships to thrive.

The president said the federal government needs to continue collaborating on this issue, too. He said he will be working with Congress to ensure partisan disagreements don’t keep the government from fulfilling its most basic responsibilities.

Security on Social Media

By Bruce Moody, Fleet and Family Support Program, Commander, Navy Installations Command

Sailors and Navy families can prevent potential adversaries from discovering critical information on social media sites by practicing operational security.

Examples of critical information includes where a ship is going and when it is returning home or information about Sailors who deploy as individual augmentees.

Navy families, too, should remain vigilant in not volunteering any information that could unnecessarily put their Sailors in harm’s way. Deployed and even day-to-day operations are in many cases classified, and those sharing information with each loved ones or friends should recognize the importance of keeping sensitive information secure.

“Family members are vital to the success of the Navy,” Shauna Turner, manager of the Deployment Support Program at the Fleet and Family Support Program, said. “But, potential adversaries also understand this.”

It is not unprecedented for spouses and family members of U.S. military personnel to be targeted for intelligence collection. This is true in the United States and especially true overseas.

Navy family members all know some bits of critical information. It may not be classified, and it may even seem insignificant. But, to the potential adversary, it is a piece of the puzzle. The power of emerging media tools is a two-edged sword: It makes information exceptionally accessible when posted - for anyone who is interested, including potential adversaries.

When communicating on social media sites do not post the following information: - Exact deployment dates or return dates. This applies to ships, subs, squadrons and individual augmentees.

- Dates or location of a ship’s upcoming ports of call.

- Detailed information about a mission.

- References to trends in crew’s morale or an individual’s personal problems.

- Details concerning security procedures, response times or tactics.

- Information about equipment readiness.

- Speculations about future operations.

“The main rule is to simply use common sense,” Turner said. “Think before you post. Anything you post on social media, including photos, is instantly available around the world. When in doubt, don’t post it.”

Social media sites allow Sailors and Navy families to keep in contact like never before. It is a wonderful way to feel close to someone who is far away.

Sailors and Navy families are encouraged to enjoy the connection that social media offers while practicing operational security and keeping mindful of the risks presented with the widespread dissemination of information.

He is also facing a different kind of battle on the home front: striving to be a good husband and father from halfway around the world. Despite the danger, as well as the toll on his family, Chris serves through four harrowing tours of duty in Iraq, personifying the spirit of the SEAL creed to “leave no one behind.” But upon returning to his family, Chris finds that it is the war he can’t leave behind.

But there are even greater dangers ahead. Unseen by any but the Wizard Gandalf, the great enemy Sauron has sent forth legions of Orcs in a stealth attack upon the Lonely Mountain.

Arriving alone at Paddington Station, Paddington soon finds that city life is not all he had imagined – until he meets the kindly Brown family, who find him with a label tied around his neck which reads ‘Please look after this bear.

INFRASTRUCTURE CONSOLIDATION from page 1 In fact, these decisions will produce savings that will enable us to maintain a robust force presence in Europe.”

Throughout the process, Chollet said, the department maintained a close and consistent engagement with Congress, the State Department, the Joint Staff, the individual services, Eucom and European partners.

Personnel Impacts Divestiture of the Royal Air Force Mildenhall facility represents the largest reduction in U.S. personnel among all the actions.

That base’s closure will pave the way for the stationing of two squadrons of F-35 Lightning II joint strike fighter jets at RAF Lakenheath starting in 2020, defense officials said.

The basing decisions will result in a net decrease of roughly 2,000 U.S. service members and civilians in the United Kingdom over the next several years. About 3,200 U.S. personnel will relocate from RAF Mildenhall, and that will be offset by the addition of about 1,200 people who will be permanently assigned to the two F-35 squadrons slated to open at RAF Lakenheath.

Pentagon officials anticipate several hundred additional U.S. military personnel being assigned to Germany in the coming years, and about 200 more in Italy.

Roughly 500 will be reassigned from Lajes Field in the Azores, Portugal, as part of streamlining efforts approved and announced in 2012.

John Conger, acting assistant secretary of defense for energy, installations and environment, managed the EIC effort for DoD. He said the bottom line was that the department wanted to preserve its operational capability while reducing the cost of supporting it.

Reduced Need for Support Infrastructure “As a result, we will not need as many support personnel to maintain a reduced infrastructure, in terms of both U.S. military and civilian personnel and host-nation employees,” Conger said. “Approximately 1,200 U.S. military and civilian support positions will be eliminated, and about 6,000 more U.S. personnel will be relocated within Europe.

“Up to 1,100 host-nation positions could also be eliminated,” he continued, “and approximately 1,500 additional Europeans working for the U.S. could end up being impacted over the next several years, as many of their positions are relocated to areas we need to maintain for the long term.”

IN THE SPOTLIGHT RICH ORTLOFF Throughout his 42 years of military life, Rich Ortloff has served his country, his community, and worked to improve the lives of others.

While in Naples, Italy, Ortloff is always the first one to step up for anything, and he has served as a model of integrity and commitment as a military spouse, always going the extra mile to support the community and USO Naples.

“I’m here for you!” is his motto, which applies to the troops, families, and USO volunteers and staff.

Through participation with the USO, Naples Overseas Support Club (NOSC), and the Harley Owners Group (HOG), Ortloff works collaboratively with others to make Italy a home for those around him.

He is the USO Naples Volunteer of the Quarter Winter 2015.

From his staple position as lead volunteer at the USO’s weekly Hot Doggin’ Tuesday, to taste of home dinners, to special projects, he is consistently reaching out to other Sailors to encourage, engage and support, a quality of accountability, which the NSA Naples USO relies upon. Most notably, he performed as co-host with his lovely wife at the annual Naples Got Talent 2014 talent show. The pair delighted participants and the audience alike with a heartwarming humor and tear-jerking tribute to the service of military spouses in the community.

Ortloff shows a genuine respect for the struggles of Sailors overseas that is reciprocated by all those he meets.

“Since we were in this position before, giving back to the families and service members is our priority,” he said.

“We’ve been in this boat for 33 years, and I have a great sense of the need to support and give back, and the value that show of support has to the troops.”

His constant presence, calming nature, and positive attitude have impacted every event he’s participated in. As a result, he has built lasting relationships with volunteers, staff and troops.

“I love to support those who support us, and the sincere thanks that they give is an unforgettable display of gratitude,” Ortloff said. “I will miss the troops and the friendships.”

It was both a sad and joy-filled day when he announced that his wife was retiring from the Navy and the couple would be returning to California to retire near their family.

He has become a fixture in the Naples community, and he is definitely going to be missed very much.
