NSA Naples Celebrates Navy’s 243rd Birthday

Reminder: Workplace Should be Politically Neutral for DoD Service Members, Civilians

Four-hundred-seventeen Naval Support Activity Naples Sailors, family members and guests attended the 243rd Navy Ball on October 19, 2018, at the Grand Hotel La Sonrisa in the municipality of Sant’Antonio Abate, about an hour southeast of Support Site and near Sorrento. One of the Navy’s most sacred traditions is the birthday cake-cutting ceremony. The cake is traditionally cut with a sword as a reminder of both the Navy’s commitment to our nation’s quest for peace and freedom worldwide, and to signifying the passing of experience and knowledge from the oldest to the youngest members of our Navy family.

This year’s birthday cake was cut by youngest Sailor Seaman Recruit Nerissa Monico, oldest Sailor Chief Warrant Officer Ken Ingle and Guest of Honor Rear Adm. Rick Williamson.

U.S. Forces Ready for NATO Exercise Trident Juncture 18 From U.S. Joint Information Center Trident Juncture 18 Public Affairs

More than 14,000 U.S. service members from the U.S. Army, Air Force, Navy and Marine Corps will take part in Exercise Trident Juncture 18, which began October 25, 2018.

The month-long exercise will take place in Norway and the surrounding areas of the North Atlantic and the Baltic Sea, including Iceland and the airspace of Finland and Sweden. The exercise will include a live portion, from October 25 to November. 7 and a command post exercise from

November 14-23.

Trident Juncture 18 is designed to test NATO’s ability to plan and conduct a major collective defense operation – from troop training at the tactical level, to command over large elements of a NATO force.

“Trident Juncture demonstrates our credible capability, and together we deter potential adversaries,” U.S. Navy Adm. James Foggo, commander of NATO’s Allied Joint Force CommandNaples and the senior NATO commander oversee-

ing the exercise, said. “All 29-member NATO nations will participate in the exercise, along with our partners from Sweden and Finland and we are delighted about that.”

U.S. military personnel and equipment began their movements from their U.S. and European bases to Norway in September, with II Marine Expeditionary Force, based at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, executing the complex and logistically intensive task of transporting thousands of Marines and their

equipment across the Atlantic Ocean. The transition to prepare for the exercise was in itself for these Marines a test of their ability to rapidly deploy to Norway and quickly integrate into the NATO command structure, should they ever be called upon to fight.

Last week, the Iwo Jima Expeditionary Strike Group carried out a simulated air assault, employing naval assets, tactical aircraft and Marines from the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit to seize a simulated military objective in Iceland.

With election activity steadily picking up, the Department of Defense reminds members of the military and Defense Department civilians that they’re subject to rules regulating their involvement in political activities.

Gone are the days when the military posted troops at the polls after the Civil War, an act that ultimately intimidated many southerners into not voting.

Today, there are two sets of rules help protect the integrity of the political process: a DoD directive for active-duty service members and the Hatch Act for federal civilians. These rules keep the military out of partisan politics and ensure that the workplace remains politically neutral, he said.

That’s not to imply that military members and civilian employees can’t participate in politics.

The DoD encourages both groups to register to vote and vote as they choose, and to urge others to vote.

CAPTAIN’S CORNER

By Capt. Todd Abrahamson NSA Naples Commanding Officer

alloween is coming up next week and that means some great events are happening around base in addition to, of course, trick or treating. Tonight, our annual “SpookTRUNKular” event at Support Site will feature a fun new addition. In addition to 50 different themed trunks handing out candy and an assortment of food vendors on site, our very own Public Works Department will be operating a Seabee Haunted House! Personnel can also sponsor Italian friends to let them experience how Americans celebrate Halloween. Please check out Chris Kasparek’s article in this issue of the Panorama to find out more. MWR will also be hosting the annual “Zombie 5K” fun run at Carney Park tomorrow. For more details on that call 081-811-4722. If you plan on trick or treating on base the night of the 31st, please note that regular security policies remain in effect. Quiet hours begin at 10 p.m. and normal base access and escort rules apply. Please help our security watch standers ensure everyone’s safety by continuing to follow these rules on Halloween night.

I also want to make sure members of the community have enough time to plan for next month’s numerous turkey dinner opportunities. Every year organizations like MWR and USO put on fantastic events surrounding the Thanksgiving holiday to give personnel a chance to get together and celebrate. Whether you’re single or accompanied while you’re stationed here, these are great opportunities to enjoy the incredible community we’ve built here in Naples. Please keep an eye out as we put out more information in the coming weeks.

Personnel on Support Site will also start to see a bit of construction going on next month. From November 5th to the 18th, our Public Works department will be renovating various crosswalks around base to increase safety with modernized LED lighting systems. Upon entering a crosswalk, pedestrians will automatically activate lights in the pavement that will make them more visible to drivers. During the construction period it is important to note that shuttle buses will need to be re-routed and riders may notice a plus or minus 10 minute difference. The bus stop in front of the Navy Lodge will also be closed during this time.

We appreciate your patience during this project and want everyone to remember that safety is our top priority here onboard the installation.

Lastly, don’t forget to set those clocks back an hour this weekend! Sunday, October 28th, at 3 a.m. is Daylight Saving Time. Enjoy the extra hour of sleep!

As always, thanks for reading the Panorama!

ITALIAN NEWS BRIEFS COMPILED BY TERESA MEROLA NSA NAPLES PUBLIC AFFAIRS

‘Zeus Enthroned’ Once Stolen Now Returning to its Home in Baia The statue representing the Greek god Zeus called “Zeus Enthroned” is returning to Baia, near Naples after being exhibited in Los Angeles at the Getty Museum from 1992 to 2017. The statue was smuggled by traffickers and sold to the American museum in 1992. The 29inch high marble statue dates back to the 1st century B.C. It appears to have spent a long period of time submerged in the sea off Campania region and was partly covered in heavy marine incrustations, as established in 2012 through the analysis of a marble fragment found in Bacoli. This Saturday, the statue will be returning to the Archaeological Park of Campi Flegrei where visitors will have multimedia support to help them better understand the characteristics of the area, including “bradyseism,” the phenomenon that describes the slow but steady movement of the soil that takes place over many millennia.

Milan Police Officer Arrested for Stealing Toilet Paper A city cop in Milan recently appeared in court for allegedly stealing 884 rolls of toilet paper from the police warehouse while he was working in the city. He also stole three large liquid soap containers and other materials. He has also been accused of embezzling some 700 euros.

Escalator in Rome Collapses, Injuring 24 Russian Soccer Fans Twenty-four fans of Russian soccer team CSKA Moscow were injured on Tuesday when an escalator in Rome’s metropolitan Repubblica station collapsed. Most of the Russian fans were in town for a Champion’s League soccer game between CSKA Moscow and Roma.

The metropolitan station at Piazza Repubblica near the main Termini train station was closed by investigators. Two investigations were opened for this incident – one by criminal prosecutors and the other by Rome transport company ATAC. On the same night, outside the

stadium, a Russian fan was slashed with a knife during clashes. More than 1,500 Russian fans attended the soccer match.

Italians Spending More on Culture In 2017 Italians spent more on culture than they did the previous year. There was a rise of 71.4 billion euros, and in particular 31 billion euros were spent on theater, cinema, museums and concerts, which reflects a rise of 3.1 percent in 2016. The average spending on culture was quite different between the north and south of the country. People living in northern Italy spent more than 150 euros per person monthly while people in southern Italy spent 95 euros per person. The Trentino region was top on the list with 191 euros per person monthly compared to Sicily which came in last with 66 euros per person monthly.

Naples Zoo Celebrating Halloween Naples will celebrate Halloween with a five-day series of unmissable events starting on October 31 with the Night of the Bats, from 7 to 11 p.m. in the green area of Fuorigrotta district, with street performers, fire-eaters, singers and musicians, and finally with the hunting for pumpkins and paths to discover the predators of the night.

HISTORY: USS CONSTITUTION CELEBRATES 221 YEARS UNDERWAY

By Airman Olivia K. Manley USS Constitution Public Affairs

USS Constitution and its crew headed underway from the ship’s berth in Charlestown, Massachusetts, Oct. 19, in commemoration of the ship's launching 221 years ago on October 21, 1787, and is celebrating the U.S. Navy’s 243rd birthday.

“There’s no better place to commemorate the Navy’s and Constitution’s anniversaries in our natural state, underway at sea,” Cmdr. Nathaniel R. Shick, 75th commanding officer of USS Constitution, said. “I still remember the excitement I felt as my first ship pulled away from the pier in Norfolk, Virgina. Anxious, yet filled with a genuine sense of adventure. As we left the familiarity of home behind, I formed an instant connection with every generation of American Sailors who had put to sea before us.”

At 11:30 a.m., Constitution performed a 21-gun salute, which was returned by the 101st Field Artillery near Fort Independence on Castle Island. Massachusetts Dept. of Conservation and Recreation preserves Fort Independence as a defensive position for Boston Harbor from 1634 to 1962.

“It is an amazing experience to be stationed on Constitution, and to take her underway with all of our friends and family,” Seaman Tukker Michael Uniatowski, crewmember of ‘Old Ironsides’ said. “I am extremely proud of my ship and to be an American.”

The ship fired an additional 17 shots at 12:15 p.m. as it passed U.S. Coast Guard, the former site of the Ed-

mund Hartt Shipyard where Constitution was built.

Each round of this salute honored the 16 states that comprised the U.S. when Constitution launched in 1797 and one in honor of the ship’s birthday.

“Getting the opportunity to celebrate USS Constitution’s 221st birthday while underway is a once in a lifetime experience,” Madison C. Manley, a guest from Paragould, Arkansas, said. “Being a big fan of history, I feel incredibly fortunate to have been aboard the oldest commissioned warship afloat.”

“This underway crosses another successful sailing season for Constitution,” Shick added, “for which I am extremely proud of the dedication and professionalism my crew exhibited in achieving our goals of increased community engagement and education as the America’s Ship of State.”

The ship returned to her berthing Pier 1, of the Charlestown Navy Yard, at 1 p.m.

USS Constitution, America’s Ship of State, actively defended sea lanes against global threats from 17971855. The world’s oldest commissioned warship afloat, Constitution embodies 221 years of maritime heritage and unwavering service to her country. Now a featured destination on Boston’s Freedom Trail, Constitution and its crew of active-duty Sailors offer community outreach and education about the ship's history and the importance of naval sea power to more than 500,000 visitors each year. Constitution is berthed at Pier 1 in Charlestown Navy Yard.

Were you unable to catch Naval Support Activity (NSA) at the Movie Theater last month? If you weren’t, you can check out some of the questions our community members asked and how our NSA Naples representatives answered those questions here.

PUBLIC WORKS Could a weather protective shelter be erected over the area where children and

their parents wait for offbase school buses?

This is a great idea! Our Public Works department plans on submitting a proposal for this project and we will notify the community if it is approved for funding.

Many ladies restrooms throughout the base are very dirty, what can be done to fix this?

Janitorial services are provided by a contractor through the Public Works Department, so if you find a restroom that has not been

Is it possible to get more trash cans installed around the base? Are there constraints preventing us from being able to do this?

Public Works is currently in the process of reviewing the number and location of trash cans provided throughout the installation.

We will use this information to submit a project proposal, but please note that this would require additional funds which will have to compete against other projects. We will of course notify the community if or when projects like this get approved.

How does the base address the growing presence of mosquitos in summer months?

The Hospital’s Preventive Medicine team sets traps out at appropriate times each year and checks them routinely. If and when a specific threshold of mosquitoes trapped is exceeded, Public Works applies approved insecticide and larvicide as appropriate in accordance with TOWN HALL

Lower Water Heating Temperature This “easy” water heater project recommends you lower your water heater temperature to 120°F. Lowering the temperature of your water heater can save you $12 to $30 annually for each 10° reduction and decreases the risk of scalding. It only takes two hours to complete and doesn’t cost anything.

Insulate Hot Water Pipes Insulating your hot water pipes reduces heat loss and can raise water temperature by 2 to 4°F hotter than uninsulated pipes can deliver, allowing for a lower water temperature setting. For a small home, the project can take about three hours to complete and only cost $10 to $15.

Insulate Hot Water Heater Tank Insulating your hot water tank is an easy and inexpensive way to improve energy efficiency and save you money each month. It is a medium difficulty level project and can save you $20 to $45 annually. It only takes an hour and a half to complete and will cost about $30 overall.

Install Exterior Storm Windows with Low-Emissivity Coating Storm window installation is one of the most cost-effective solutions for upgrading energy inefficient existing windows. They’re easy to install and cost a fraction of replacement windows. In fact, low-emissivity (low-e) storm windows can lower your utility bill just as much as replacing an entire window. It is rated as an easy project and can save you 10 to 35% on your energy bills. It will take 20 to 30 minutes per window and cost $60 to $200 per window.

Seal Air Leaks with Caulk One of the quickest energy- and money-saving tasks you can do is caulk, seal, and weather-strip all cracks and large openings to the outside. This “easy” project will cost $3 to $30 and only takes one to two hours to complete. It will also save you 5 to 10% on your energy bills.

Adm. James G. Foggo III, commander, U.S. Naval Forces Europe-Africa and commander, Allied Joint Force Command Naples, Italy, commemorated the 75th anniversary of the Battle of the Atlantic in Faxa Bay, Iceland, aboard the Icelandic Coast Guard Vessel Thor, October 16, 2018.

The Battle of the Atlantic was the longest continuous military campaign during World War II and involved the naval blockade of Germany the day after the declaration of war.

“Today we commemorate the turning of the Battle of the Atlantic, and pay homage to the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for us and our children,” Foggo said. “To the nation of Iceland, your countrymen paid a high price … and today we remember them and give our thanks

for their sacrifice and our thanks to the people of Iceland who stood, with unwavering commitment, alongside the allies.”

The Icelandic Minister of Foreign Affairs Gudlaugur Thor Thordarson delivered remarks during the ceremony and joined Foggo in placing a wreath into the bay followed by a moment of silence.

“The Battle of the Atlantic was one of the most important battles of the Second World War,” Thordarson said. “The allies would hardly have won the war without gaining superior position on the ocean.”

This battle was not without sacrifices and we are remembering that today. However, at the same time we also remember how crucial unimpeded shipping routes over the Atlantic are for Iceland.

That was certainly the case 75 years ago and it still applies today,” he continued.

The battle involved thousands of ships and covered millions of square miles of ocean.

“The battle was won by the

entire peoples of the United Nations,” Foggo said, quoting a passage from “The Battle of the Atlantic,” a British book about the battle. “It was the triumph of right over evil – the calm determination of men and women of many different races, languages, and creeds, no matter what the personal sacrifice, to prevent the domination and enslavement of the world.”

While in Iceland, Foggo will observe Trident Juncture events and meet with Icelandic government officials.

NATO and its partners will take part in exercise Trident Juncture. The exercise, hosted by Norway, will include around 50,000 personnel from 29 NATO countries, as well as Finland and Sweden, and will test NATO’s collective response to an armed attack against one ally, invoking Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty.

Operational Readiness Assessment (Base-wide Drill) From NSA Public Affairs

Naval Support Activity Naples will be conducting an all day, base-wide emergency preparedness drill November 6 beginning at 9 a.m.

The drill will simulate the installation community responding to a natural disaster and will assess our capabilities to execute a large scale emergency action plan.

Personnel can expect to hear announcements over the Giant Voice system, sirens operated by first responders, and other notifications throughout the drill.

All NSA Naples departments and tenant commands will be playing a role in the drill and all personnel onboard Support Site and Capodichino are required to adhere to instructions given over emergency notification systems.

NEUTRAL WORKPLACE

Both groups can sign nominating petitions for candidates and express their personal opinions about candidates and issues – but only if they don’t do so as representatives of the armed forces. Also, all federal employees can make contributions to political organizations or candidates.

Beyond that, the list of dos and don’ts differs widely, depending on whether the employee is an active-duty service member, a rankand-file civil service employee, a political appointee or member of the career Senior Executive Service.

Of all DoD employees, the men and women in uniform have the most restrictions regarding political activity, he explained. A 1993 revision to the Hatch Act freed most civil service employ-

All personnel – whether they live on base or off base – should also review their command emergency action plans and review / discuss emergency preparedness plans with their families.

ees to engage in political activities outside the workplace that were once forbidden, although many restrictions still apply.

For example, service members as well as government civilians can attend political meetings or rallies.

Military members can attend only as spectators and not in uniform. They’re not permitted to make public political speeches, serve in any official capacity in partisan groups, or participate in partisan political campaigns or conventions.

On the other hand, civilian employees governed by the Hatch Act may be active in and speak before political gatherings, or serve as officers of political parties or partisan groups.

They also are permitted to manage campaigns, distribute literature, write political articles or serve as a spokesperson for a party or

candidate.

Military members generally aren’t permitted to campaign for a political office. Civilian employees are, as long as it’s a nonpartisan election.

While the dos and don’ts concerning political activity may vary, the basic rules hold true for all DoD workers. They can’t use their position to influence or interfere with an election.

And they can never engage in political activity on the job, in a government vehicle or while wearing an official uniform.

More details about restrictions on DoD military and civilian employees’ political activities are posted on www.osc.gov/ ha_fed.htm and www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/corres/html2/d1344 10x.htm.

MORALE, WELFARE AND RECREATION (MWR) How does money made from MWR programs get reinvested into resources for the community?

MWR has three categories of programs, sorted by capability to generate revenue: 1 is the lowest capability, and 3 is the highest.

The few programs that do generate sufficient revenue to cover operating expenses help offset operational costs not covered by Appropriated Funds provided by Congress. So all revenue from category 2 and 3 programs like Tickets and Travel or the Movie Theater goes back into supporting category 1 programs like our libraries.

Can we extend/expand pool hours on Support Site? Would there be enough staffing for this?

The annual budget plan does not cover additional weekend expenses unfortunately.

Lifeguard support beyond Labor Day is a challenge as well, as the Lifeguards return to school and the weather becomes unpredictable. We are always working to provide as much to the community as we can, but this is one area where we are operating at maximum capacity right now. If anything changes we will of course let the community know.

Are there any rules/restrictions for using the library copy machines on Support Site or Capo?

Minimal copying and printing (up to 10 copies) is available at no charge, and computers, printers, toners, and paper are provided as a convenience for customers.

LEGAL If my private group is holding a get-together at the community center, can we serve alcohol?

The installation commanding officer is the approving authority for the consumption and sale of alcohol onboard all Navy installations. Alcohol consumption can be approved by our Commanding Officer for special events if in compliance with Commander, Navy Installations Command (CNIC) and NSA Naples policy. Alcohol is not permitted to be served on the base as part of fundraising events. Special event requests, including requests to serve alcohol, should be submitted to the Staff Judge Advocate via email at sja_nsa_naples@eu.nacy.mil
