FACSFAC SOY back from Iraq
By Lt. Rebecca Rebarich
FACSFAC Jax PAO i N.
Fleet Area Control
and Surveillance
Facility, Jacksonville
Sailor of the Year and Air
Traffic Controller of the
Year 2007, AC1 Brian
Kerns returns from a seven
month individual augmen-
tee (IA) to Iraq and is nom-
inated for Naval Air Force
Atlantic Sailor of the Year.
He has proven himself to
be a tremendous leader and
an exceptional air traffic
controller (ATC) who exem-
plifies the characteristics
and traits of today's Sailor.
His superior dedication,
unique talent of balancing
the needs of his Sailors, the
mission and the Navy led to
his selection as FACSFAC
Jax Sailor of the Year for
2007.
Kerns volunteered for one
of the first ATC rate IA bil-
lets in support of Operation
Enduring Freedom (OEF) at
Al Taqaddum, Iraq. Within
two months, he qualified on
all ATC control positions.
To date, he is one of only
three members of MACS-
2 ATC Det B who is fully
qualified.
His skillful leadership of
Sailors and Marine Corps
controllers led to more than
28,000 instrument and
visual mishap free opera-
tions in support of OEF.

Support Center (DASC) in Al Taqaddum, Iraq, during a seven-month individual augmentee
tour in Iraq.
While in Iraq, Kerns
earned the enlisted Fleet
Marine Force Warfare
Specialist (FMF) designa-
tion. This is a true testa-
ment to his dedication to
career progression.
Lt. E.J. Drey, FACSFAC
Jax ATC officer, is extreme-
ly proud of Kerns. "He has
displayed the core values
of our Navy with great
distinction. And he has
proven to everyone in our
command that volunteer-
ing for an IA billet not only
helps complete the mission
but can be very reward-
ing on a personal level,"
remarked Drey. "His selec-
tion as one of the final-
ists for the Commander,
Naval Air Force Atlantic
(COMNAVAIRLANT) Shore
Sailor of the Year is testa-
ment to his integrity and
patriotism for his country."
As FACSFAC Jax ATC
training branch chief, an
E-7 billet, Kerns expertly
managed and guided 42
ATCs through an exten-
sive and complex training
program, including 1,500
training hours, produced
six supervisor designations
and 26 ATC qualifications.

Crews retires today after nearly 35 years
By Staff
NAS Jacksonville Public Affairs
Officer (PAO) Rick Crews
retires today after nearly 35
years of civilian government service.
A native of Baker County, Fla.,
Crews claims he could skin a catfish
before he was toilet trained. "I grew
up so far in the country that we had
to go toward town to hunt," he said.
A graduate of Lake City Community
College and the University of North
Florida with a Bachelor of Arts
degree in communications and litera-
ture, Crews is nonetheless an ardent
Florida Gator fan. "I bleed orange and
blue," he says. "You know how to get
a Florida State graduate away from
your door, don't you? You pay for the
pizza."
While at junior college he was
awarded a debate scholarship. "I
guess they needed people for the
debate team really bad," he said. "I
gave a funny presentation in speech
class and was offered a scholarship. I
found myself debating kids who won
scholarships because they were cham-
pion high school competitors. The Tim
Tebows of debate. The first debate
tournament I ever saw, I was in! It
was humbling."
According to Crews, his team didn't
win any tournaments, but they were
spoilers and won a couple of debates.
He began his career in 1974 as
a cooperative education student in
public affairs at the then Naval Air
Rework Facility, now Fleet Readiness
Center Southeast.
"I was barely 21 and didn't know
anything about the military," he
said. "I once spelled naval 'navel.'

cle for the plan of the week (POW)

about painting the ladies head. I
thought the person was just crazy.
I wasn't sure if there was really a
'POW,' but I was sure we were not
going to paint anybody's head."
Crews was assigned to the Naval
Supply Center Jacksonville, now Fleet
Industrial Supply Center Jax (FISC),
from 1980-99. He was the command
public affairs officer, then command
support director and foreign military
training officer.
He says one of the highlights of
his tour at FISC was managing the
Foreign Military Training program,
where he made each class of senior
and junior trainees do the Gator
Chomp before they could receive their
diplomas. "They came to Jax from a
stop at the Supply Corps School in
Athens, Ga., where the University of
Georgia is located," he said.
"They were barking at me when
they got here. It had to be done. How
I wound up with military officers from
all over the world and didn't create an
international incident is still a mys-
tery," continued Crews.
Crews transferred to Navy Region
Southeast Public Affairs in 1998. A
big part of his job each year was to
manage the media center for Fleet
Week in Fort Lauderdale. "We had a
hell of a team each year," he said.

HS-7 personnel recently rescued 10 crewmembers from
the Kuwaiti ship Nadi after receiving a distress call that
the ship that it was sinking and the crew needed to be
rescued.
'Dusty Dogs'
perform another
rescue at sea
Save crew from sinking ship
By Lt. j.g. Jonathan Dorsey
HS-7 PAO
For the second time during their current deploy-
ment on board USS Harry S. Truman, the HS-
7 "Dusty Dogs" have executed another success-
ful rescue mission. The squadron has now rescued 13
individuals at sea.
The second rescue mission occurred Feb. 22 after a
five-day port call in the Arabian Gulf. As the Dusty
Dogs started their day conducting a joint exercise with
the 1F4 Platoon from the U.S. Marine Corps Security
Force Company Bahrain, a distress call was intercept-
ed and HS-7 personnel were tasked to investigate.
The Dusty team unloaded the Marines and seam-
lessly refitted their HH60-H helicopter to prepare
for the upcoming rescue. Dusty 617 piloted by Cmdr.
Kevin Lenox and copiloted by Lt. j.g. Jonathan Dorsey,
headed towards the distressed vessel about 50 nautical
miles away. The crew chief was AW1 Shad Hernandez
and the rescue swimmer was AW2 Brenton Graham.
The ship assembled a medical team consisting of
Flight Surgeon Lt. April Matiasek and two corpsmen,
HM1 AnnMarie Lawrence and HM1 Francis Nielsen
to assess the distraught crew of the vessel and aid
with any medical needs.
Dusty 617 quickly arrived on scene and began
to access the situation. Also on scene was USNS
Sacagawea (T-AKE 2), a supply ship. The aircrew
determined that they would have to first drop off the
medical team on the Sacagawea and then bring the
rescued crewmembers back to the Sacagawea for med-
ical examinations.
While waiting for flight quarters to be manned on
the Sacagawea, Dusty 617 flew by the distressed ves-
sel, Nadi, several times to determine the best course of
action for rescuing the crew since the helicopter would
not be able to land on the ship. The Nadi was a small
200-foot merchant vessel sailing under a Kuwaiti flag.
Its super structure was situated on the aft part of the
ship.
The ship has two masts, one positioned a third of the
way from the bow and the other a third from the stern
of the ship. Each mast had a thick wire connected to
bow and stern respectively, but no wire between them.
Nadi, which had 10 crewmembers, had been dead in
the water for about a week, but they were still able to
produce electrical power through their diesel genera-
tors on board.
After several days of being at the mercy of the seas,
their ship started to take on water. They had full
operation of their bilge pumps, but the ship was tak-
ing on water at a faster rate than they were able to
expel. The captain determined the ship could not be
saved and made a plea for assistance from any ship or
aircraft within range. Dusty 617 answered the call.
As soon as flight quarters were manned on the
Sacagawea, Dorsey made the approach to land and
drop off the medical team. The medical team headed
inside and made preparations for the survivors.

Flamingos inspire familiar CO panic
goed." A large poster-board sign next
to the birds told us that a high-school
group raising money for their gradua-
tion party was responsible. In order to
get the flamingoes out of our yard and
into someone else's, we had to pay
$10. If we didn't want the flamingoes
to ever flock our yard again, we could
pay an extra $5.
And who sent us these six pink
treasures? The CO and his wife, of
course. They have a teenage daugh-
ter, so Dustin worried (without rea-
son; the CO had been an unwitting
"victim," just like us) that it might
be her school or friends raising the
money. (Why do military men get so
freaked out about anything involving
their CO?)
"Whatever you do, don't let anything
happen to those flamingoes today,"
Dustin said as he left for work.
The children were of course delight-
ed to see the tacky pink birds in our
yard. I can only guess now, in hind-
sight, that they spent a good majority
of the school day imagining what they
would do to the flamingoes when they
got home.
The bird's instructions said that
their owner (not related to the CO
in any way) would be back at 8 p.m.
to pick up the flock, our check and
directions to the next sucker, I mean
donator of our choosing. At 4 p.m.,
however, just one hour after my older
boys, Ford (7) and Owen (5), had got-
ten home from school, there was a
knock on the door. A flustered woman
stood on the front porch, one lone pink
bird clutched to her chest.
"I've come to pick up the birds," she
said flatly.
"Oh, let me write a check then," I
said. "I'm sorry that I'm not ready yet.

The military is a small world.
You knew that. But did you
know that the world becomes
significantly smaller (which is to say,
as small as an elevator feels when
your infant son has just messed his
pants) when your husband's com-
manding officer (CO) lives in the
house behind yours?
Dustin's CO is a wonderful man and
leader with a great sense of humor
(remember that because it becomes
important later), but that doesn't
mean Dustin isn't slightly unnerved
knowing that the CO can look across
his yard and see Dustin putting the
wrong fertilizer on our grass. And we
have children too, which throws all
kinds of variables into the situation.
Dustin can tell me to quit leaving
on the flood lights, the ones that shine
right into the CO's house, all night
(actually, I think his exact words
were, "If you leave those lights on
again, I'll rip the entire light fixture
out of the wall"), but when it comes to
our three boys, well, Dustin can talk
all he wants ("Stop hitting baseballs
into the CO's yard!" and "If you're
going to moon each other, could you
do it in the front yard, please?"), and
it doesn't mean they will listen.
Which brings us to two weeks ago.
Dustin was leaving for work early
one morning, when the dew was still
on the grass and clinging to the six
pink flamingoes in our front yard.
"Sarah," he yelled back into the
house. "Do you know anything about
the pink flamingoes with bows around
their necks in our yard?"

"Well usually, yes. But then we got
a call alerting us that your children
were beating the flamingoes in the
front yard." She made a motion like
swinging a baseball bat with her free
arm.
I was confused because I knew that
Owen was asleep on the couch and I
thought Ford was upstairs. But just
then, Ford and our neighbor's son
peeked around the side of the house,
guilt all over their faces.
"Oh, those children," I said, pointing
to Ford and his friend. "I have no idea
who those children are."
The lady wasn't buying it.
I spent the next hour helping her
and the boys unearth buried flamingo
parts in our front yard. Then I wrote
a big check to help cover the cost of
the damaged birds.
When Dustin got home that night,
together we grilled Ford about his
behavior. Ford sobbed into his hands.
"But flamingoes are only supposed to
stand on one leg," he said. "And those
birds were standing on two, so we
pulled off the extra ones and buried
them."
He had a point. Flamingoes do only
stand on one leg.
Still, I knew by the look on Dustin's
face, if I valued his sanity at all (and
often I do), I would definitely turn off
the flood lights before going to bed.

From Commander,
U.S. Fleet Forces Command
The Department of the Navy has pre-
pared a Draft Environmental Impact
Statement (DEIS) to assess the
potential environmental consequences of
the introduction of the P-8A Multi-Mission
Maritime Aircraft (MMA) to the U.S. Navy
fleet.
The DEIS reviewed and assessed six bas-
ing options developed out of the need to
replace the retiring P-3C aircraft with the P-
8A MMA at existing maritime patrol home
bases.
The Navy evaluated a range of alterna-
tives based upon the number of squadrons
to be based at each site, placement of the
fleet replacement squadron (FRS) and the
number of main operating bases.
The DEIS evaluated potential environ-
mental consequences to resources such as
air quality, archeological/cultural resources,
coastal considerations, noise, socioeconom-
ics, threatened and endangered species, traf-
fic, water quality and wetlands/floodplains.
The Navy will host a public hearing April
9 at the Howard Johnson Inn, ('l.iy Duval
Room, 150 Park Avenue, Orange Park, to
provide information about the DEIS and to
obtain public comment on the document.
The public hearing will be preceded by an
open information session to allow interested
individuals to review information presented
in the DEIS. Navy representatives will be
available during the information session to
provide clarification as necessary related to
the DEIS.
The information session will occur from
4:30-6:30 p.m., followed by the formal pub-
lic hearing from 7- 9 p.m. Those wishing to
speak at the public hearing should arrive
early to sign up. Speakers will be heard on
a first come first served basis.
There are five ways for interested mem-
bers of the public to comment on the DEIS:
1) Fill out a comment sheet and drop it in
the comment box at one of the below meet-
ings.
2) Provide verbal comments as part of the
hearing and the stenographer will record
statement.
3) Submit comments through the mail by
sending to:
Commander, Naval Facilities

provide written comments.
5) Provide written comments via Fax at
(757) 322-4894.
All comments must be postmarked (if
mailed) or received no later than April
25 in order to be considered in the final
Environmental Impact Statement.
The DEIS has been distributed to various
federal, state, and local agencies, as well as
other interested individuals and organiza-

AM1 Trenson Weissgerber works in the Fleet Readiness Center Southeast Satellite Production
Control area.
FRCSE establishes satellite
production control to merge
intermediate, depot maintenance
By AT2(AW) Krystal Smith
FRCSE Public Affairs LPO
Fleet Readiness Center Southeast
(FRCSE) established the first
Satellite Production Control (SPC),
a component of the Customer Service
Division at the FRCSE Industrial Site ear-
lier this year.
SPC was designed to monitor and man-
age the influx of avionics, hydraulic, and
structural components from the FRCSE
intermediate sites. With the merging of
the former Naval Air Depot and Aviation
Intermediate Maintenance Detachments,
a new system of avionics equipment
exchange was formed.
The new system, Beyond Capable
Maintenance Interdiction (BCMI), allows
for the intermediate sites to send avion-
ics, hydraulic, and structural components
to the depot artisans at the industrial site
without incurring the net price of a beyond
capable maintenance (BCM) action.
The BCMI is used as a work request
from the intermediate site to the industrial
site, saving from hundreds to thousands of
dollars in repair costs.
"Since the new SPC began, just a mere
two months ago, the new system has saved
FRCSE over $300,000," said AM1 Trenson
Weissgerber, who helped establish the
SPC.
AMC Christopher Leech and
Weissgerber, who lead the SPC, explained
that SPC uses the Naval Aviation Logistics
Command Management Information
System to track components through the
industrial site's system and are responsi-
ble for ordering parts and maintaining the
maintenance action forms.
According to Leech, there is an average
of 40 items monitored daily. Currently,
the FRCSE industrial site receives BCMIs
from the Jacksonville and Mayport inter-
mediate sites and is in the process of
updating capability for the Key West site
as well.
So, how does all this work? Weissgerber
de-scribes the situation. A maintainer at
FRCSE Site Jacksonville is working on
a piece of equipment, and then, due to
capability restrictions, the repair cannot
be accomplished at the intermediate level
site. This equipment would have been sent
to the depot via the supply system under a
BCM and would cost the site $2,000.
Now, with the BCMI, the maintainer can
send the piece of equipment directly to the
industrial site for the depot artisans to fin-
ish the repairs and the cost would be only
$600.
Also, the equipment does not have to be
returned to the supply system to be deliv-
ered to the industrial site. The intermedi-
ate maintainer will insure delivery. This is
cutting days, and sometimes weeks, off of
the repair time.
The BCMI system is also allowing for the
depot artisans to branch away from doing a
complete overhaul on a piece of equipment.
Instead, they are fixing the problems only.
This saves time and money.

With the Navy continuously changing requirements,
junior Sailors are now getting the opportunity to partici-
pate in programs not once offered to them because of their
rank. One such program is the flight engineer (FE) course
offered at CNATTU Jax. They had to revamp their whole
course because it was previously only offered to fleet E-5
and E-6 Sailors. Now Sailors straight out of "A' school can .....
attend and attain a lot of responsibilities.
"There is no other place in the Navy that a young E-3 or
E-4 has the level of responsibility that is put upon them as
a flight engineer. They are the senior crew member on a
P-3 interacting with officers and pilots seven days a week,"
said AEC Ronald Darr, leading chief petty officer for the
Flight Engineer Course. "Without actually being a pilot, a
FE is about as close as you can get because they are in the
flight station with the pilot, starting the engine, setting
the power and making decisions on a daily basis regarding
the safety their aircraft and aircrew."
The FE is unique because there are several different
rates compiled together for these jobs: AEs, ATs, mechan-
ics and airframers learning every system about the air- "
craft and they are considered the system expert.
Flight engineer student AM2 Alexander Penn is a fleet
Sailor who finds his course very rewarding. "It's chal-
lenging, takes a lot of personal dedication, off duty time to
study and effort. Our instructors are very knowledgeable "
and they know their stuff. We are trained to be experts by
experts," he said.
U.S. Marine Sgt. Robert Flores Jr. is an aviation
grounds support equipment instructor and is having a
great time. "It helps my piece of mind knowing that I'm 'A
sending out Sailors and Marines who are more knowledge- "-
able about the equipment that I am teaching and they are
more prepared to do whatever they are tasked with. This ,
class teaches them a more in depth hands on training than
"A' school. They get to understand what makes the gear ,u
work and get a good feeling on what to expect in the fleet,"
said Flores.

reaches out to the

By IT2 Stephanie Nimphius
CPRW-11
Group of petty officers from Commander, Patrol
and Reconnaissance Wing Eleven (CPRW-11) pro-
vided a lunchtime meals to retirees living at a
local retirement home through the Community Kosher
Nutrition Program Feb. 19-22 to show support in the
local community.
Community service is a long-standing tradition for mili-
tary units stationed in Jacksonville. Military units have
fostered and developed a program of mutual sharing and
understanding between the people of Jacksonville.
The petty officers served a variety of foods includ-
ing spaghetti, chicken, turkey, fruits and salads. The
Community Kosher Nutrition Program caters to 80 civil-
ian retirees and seniors. Many of the residents thanked
the group for their service to their country and for serving
such a wonderful lunch.
"I had a great time," said ET2(SW/AW) April Wood.
"It was nice visiting with the retirees and gaining a true
sense of community. Everyone was friendly and apprecia-
tive. I will definitely be coming back again and again."
The Sailors shared sea stories, trading tales of changed
rules and old traditions that still remain. After talking
with the retirees, the CPRW-11 staff seemed to have a
newfound respect for the Navy in which they serve and
the positions they hold. "Many of the residents were also
Holocaust survivors," said IT1(SW) Patrick Kean. "Sitting
down and talking to them gives you a sense of history. It
was like turning the pages of a history book."

he peddler was selling a potion, which he declared
would make one live to a ripe old age. "Why,
look at me!" he shouted. "Healthy,
hearty, strong and energetic. I'm over 300
years old." A person in the crowd turned
to the peddler's young assistant and asked
"Is he really as old as that?" "Well, I can't
say" he answered. "I've only worked for
him a hundred years."
Really . what would we do with our
time if we could live 300 years? In a
way this is a ridiculous question because
I know that I will not live on this earth
for 300 years. But, you know perhaps
you have found yourself, like I have, mak-
ing the equally ridiculous statement, "If I
could only turn back the hands of time."
It's worthless, wishful thinking because we
can't and yet we seek to recapture time and
replay missed opportunities.
The truth of the matter is, we're all run- Chaplain (Lt
ning out of time (the chronological kind).
Time is one of those commodities that when you're out of
it, you're out of it! Think about it. If you run out of oxy-
gen, you can get some. If you run out of money you can
earn some. If you are homeless you can go to a shelter.
But, if you're out of time, it's gone!
All of us are enveloped in this chronological dimension
that controls us. We can find ourselves running out of
time for the most important people and things in our lives.
We may find ourselves with never enough time for family,
friends and responsibly planning our lives. We may even
find ourselves with never enough time for God. Time can
become the proverbial "tail wagging the dog!"
I'm interested in identifying and applying some time-
tested principles that will help me to be a good manager of
my time and therefore, my life. So, here goes.
Walk circumspectly! I just like this "old English"
Reminder...
From Staff
To receive the federal rebate check as part of
the Economic Stimulus Bill this year, you are
required to file federal taxes by April 15.
Even if you normally do not file taxes due to Social
Security income or VA disability, you must file a 2007
tax form to receive this rebate.
People who owe no income tax, but earned at least

expression. It's a dignified way of saying
"be careful, be wise."
I truly believe that time is a gift given
to us by The Almighty. As recipients of
this gift we are invited to be good stew-
ards/managers of whatever block of time
we have been given. I must apportion my
time properly and be careful and wise
to make the most of each opportunity. I
must "make" the time to spend significant
moments with my family. I must "make"
time to meet with an old friend. I must
attempt to capture those opportunities
to assist, to help, to encourage a person
expressing need. The irony of life is that
while we may complain about the lack of
time for study, family and even praying,
we may find ourselves doing "nothing" from
time to time.
I love the study of history. One of the
important facts about history is that everyone in it is
dead. They all ran out of chronological time. As I consume
and use up my portion of time I realize that one day I'm
going to be dead too and I'm not even going to leave a hole.
Yes, I'm also reminded that an eternal existence awaits a
people of faith but I am encouraged to know that in this
place and in this time I am invited to use my time care-
fully!
I'm also reminded of some catchy maxims regarding
good use of time, "Time is money and money is profit"
(true, if you're in business). "Time is of the essence" (true,
if you're working on a deadline). "Time is on my side"
(true, if you use it carefully). "Do you love life? Then
do not waste time, for that's the stuff life is made of."
(Benjamin Franklin).
Be careful and be wise with the use of time!

HS-7 family and friends celebrate
the halfway point of deployment
By Sunny Harvey
Special Contributor
Celebration! Excitement!
Fun! These aren't normal-
ly the words you would use
to describe the families of deployed
Sailors halfway through a seven-
month cruise, but the Family
Readiness Group (FRG) of HS-7,
with the help of the base Morale,
Welfare and Recreation Department,
has done just that.
The group threw a carnival for
the children and loved ones of the
deployed Sailors, on board USS Harry
S. Truman March 1. "We wanted to
give the children a chance to enjoy
themselves and celebrate along with
reminding them that their loved
one will be home soon," said Lois
Vaughan, who helped to coordinate
the event.
The event was held in the HS-7
hangar. "Many of the children associ-
ate the hangar with their deployed
parent and the important work that
they do, so we felt that connection
made it a good place to hold the
event," explained Jill Mordhorst,
another member of the committee.
Instead of the usual helicopters you
see surrounding the area, there was
an inflated jumpy house and craft
projects for the children to make and
send to their loved one. The smell of
pizza and popcorn masked the normal
aroma of the area. The Jacksonville
Zoo's education department was there
with several animals for the children
to observe, touch, and learn from.
Children were running around having
fun; everything you would expect to
see at a carnival.
Halfway through the event a laptop
was set up which displayed a slide

show presentation from the "Dusty
Dogs." CMC Jamie Vaughan had
coordinated a recording of everyday
life of the deployed Sailors from the
ship and sent it back home for the
carnival. At any given time you could
see a loved one intently watching,
learning what life was like for the
individual he or she misses and hop-
ing to catch a glimpse of his or her
face. The FRG recorded the event to
return the favor and will be sending it
to their deployed loved ones. The vid-
eographer walked around capturing
the emotions, faces, and sentiments
of the loved ones celebrating. "This
is a tough time for the guys so we are
hoping that the video will brighten
their spirits and remind them that we

CNATTU Jax recognizes honorees
By AEC Raymond Derrick
CNATTU Jax PAO
The Center for Naval
Aviation Technical
Training Unit
(CNATTU) Jacksonville
recently announced their
top Sailors, Marines
and Instructors of the
Year. These outstand-
ing Sailors and Marines
were selected to represent
CNATTU Jacksonville at
CNATT Headquarters in
Pensacola.
Individuals were selected
for each category, broken
up by paygrade: Senior
Sailor of the Year (SSOY),
Senior Instructor of the
Year (SIOY), Instructor
of the Year (IOY), Junior
Instructor of the Year
(JIOY) and Junior Marine
of the Year (JMOY).
ADC(AW/SW) Gary
Singleton was selected as
the command's SIOY. Due
to an unforeseen manning
shortfall within the com-
mand, Singleton tirelessly
instructed the P-3 Aviation
Machinists Mate Initial and
Career courses. His con-
tinuous devotion to instruct
allowed CNATTU to con-
vene all scheduled classes
on time and continue to
supply the fleet with highly
trained T-56 mechanics.
CNATTU named
AEl(AW) Miguel Jimenez
as the 2007 SSOY. Jimenez
is the leading petty offi-
cer (LPO) of CNATTU

From MWR
he Voluntary Pre-
K (VPK) program is
designed to prepare
4-year-old children for kin-
dergarten and helps build
the foundations for their
educational success at no
cost to the parent. If your
child will be four years of
age on or before Sept. 1,
they may participate in the
VPK program.
The NAS Jax Youth
Activities Center would like
to hear from those families
who would be interested
in enrolling their child in
a VPK-only program dur-
ing the regular school year.
Classes would be Monday
through Friday from 8:30-
11:30 a.m.
Please call the Youth
Activities Center at 778-
9772 or e-mail megan.
elliot@navy.mil and let
them know if you are inter-
ested in this program.
Jacksonville's largest
maintenance training unit,
MTU-1011. He is direct-
ly responsible for the cur-
riculum development and
administrative efforts of 49
senior instructors in pro-
viding quality instruction
to 46 P-3C Organizational
and Intermediate Level
Pipeline Training courses,
with a throughput of more
than 500 students annu-
ally. In addition, Jimenez
was selected as the CNATT
domain SOY.
AT1(AW) Bresheon
Whitson was selected as
IOY. Whitson is the LPO
of CNATTU Jacksonville's
Instructional Systems
Development Department.
He manages the efforts of
10 senior instructors who
serve as course curricu-
lum model managers for
424 pipelines of instruc-
tion for the maintenance
training units at CNATTU
Jacksonville. Also he
serves as a senior section
leader for the Command
Watch Program.
When asked what led to
their selection as SSOY and
IOY? Jimenez and Whitson
made one aspect of their job
perfectly clear. The people
they work with and the col-
lective efforts of the divi-
sions they lead, make their
job fulfilling and allows
them the opportunity to be
selected as the command's
SSOY and IOY.
JIOY honors were award-
ed to AT2(AW) Benjamin
Jones. Jones instructs
five separate SH-60 cours-
es and is the central tech

instruction at CNATTU. In
November, Grubb received
a certificate of appreciation
for meritorious services ren-
dered from the Jacksonville
Sheriffs Office for adminis-
tering first aid that saved a
hit and run victim's life.
CNATTU Jax Senior
Enlisted Leader AFCM(AW)
Pat Dronkers said, "It is
an honor to stand shoul-
der-to-shoulder with these
fine Sailors and Marine.
They exemplify the best
of our instructors here at
CNATTU Jacksonville.
While they instruct for dif-
ferent training units, they
have all demonstrated
superior performance and
continuous dedication to
self improvement."

NMSC part of largest-ever DOD training consolidation
NAS Jax-based headquarters [
to manage METC 1"
By Larry Coffey
Navy Medicine Support Command PAO
The largest consolidation of service training in
Department of Defense history moved a step closer
to completion Feb. 29 with the commissioning of
the Navy Medicine Training Center (NMTC) at Fort Sam
Houston, Texas.
NMTC, a subordinate command of the Navy Medicine
Support Command (NMSC) at NAS Jacksonville, will sup-
port tri-service education and training as the Navy service
element command for the joint-service enlisted Medical
Education Training Campus (METC). The tri-service
METC is scheduled to open between 2010 and 2011.
"We are committed to one integrated inter-service edu-
cation and training system that leverages the assets of
all DOD health-care practitioners," said Surgeon General
of the Navy Vice Adm. Adam Robinson Jr., who was the
guest speaker of the commissioning ceremony. "We must
continue to build on our previous successes. This is the
right thing to do."
Commanding Officer Capt. Greg Craigmiles also
addressed the need for change. "We live in turbulent
times, and never before has response to change been more
important," Craigmiles said during the ceremony. "The
movement and co-location of all tri-service medical train-
ing to Fort Sam Houston will be a huge undertaking dur-
ing the next three years and we will be working shoulder
to shoulder with our Army and Air Force colleagues to
prepare Sailors, Soldiers and Airmen to save lives and

Training Center at Fort Sam Houston, Texas, Feb. 29.
take care of people."
The majority of existing Navy enlisted medical edu-
cation training programs is scheduled to move to San
Antonio as part of the 2005 Base Closure and Realignment
Commission (BRAC) initiative, said Cmdr. Chris Garcia
from the tri-service METC Transformation and Integration
Office. The BRAC requires Navy and Air Force medical
enlisted training courses relocate to Fort Sam Houston.
Commands moving include the Naval School of Health
Sciences (NSHS) San Diego; NSHS Portsmouth, Va.; and
the Naval Hospital Corps School (NHCS) Great Lakes,
Ill. Army and Air Force programs moving here include
the Army's histopathology training program at the Armed
Forces Institute at Walter Reed in Washington, DC and
the Air Force's 82nd Training Group at Sheppard Air
Force Base in Wichita Falls, Texas.
The first Navy students are scheduled to begin training
in the new facilities in May 2010. Garcia said the target
date for all Navy students to train at Fort Sam Houston is
prior to Sept. 15, 2011, the BRAC deadline. The student
load will phase in as the new facilities are completed.
The average daily student load will be about 9,000
Sailors, Soldiers and Airmen in 2011 when the integration
is complete, Garcia said, making METC the world's larg-
est military medical education and training institution.
Of the 9,000 enlisted students, approximately one-third or
2,900 are expected to be Navy. The Army average daily
student load is expected to be about 4,90 and the Air Force
about 1,200.
There will be five new instructional facilities ranging in
size from 50,000- to 245,000-square feet. The new facility
housing the Hospital Corps program will be the largest.
NMTC and the Air Force service element will be housed
together in a new two-story building with NMTC occupy-
ing the first floor that includes a traditional Navy quar-
terdeck. There will be three new dormitories constructed,
two for Navy students and one for Air Force and a new
dining facility is being built.
Garcia said a variety of the courses will be taught in an
integrated environment, with members of all three ser-
vices attending. There will also be service-unique classes.
Craigmiles pointed out that U.S. military personnel in
Iraq and Afghanistan are experiencing the lowest battle
mortality and disease non-battle injury rates in history,
due in large part to exceptional military medical person-
nel and their training.
"The training we deliver to our corpsmen and medics
will save lives on the battlefield," he said. "Therefore, we
must continue to provide the best possible support to our
Sailors, Soldiers and Airmen in all aspects of their train-
ing and development."

Military
families needed
for event
From the FFSC
April is Child Abuse
Awareness Month
and The Month of the
Military Child. It is a time
to honor our children and to
support their parents.
This year's theme is
"Building Successful
Families." In keeping with
this theme the Fleet and
Family Support Center
(FFSC), assisted by the
Morale, Welfare and
Recreation Department, is
hosting one of the nation's
premier experts on helping
parents motivate their chil-
dren to want to succeed.
Kevin McMahon has been
seen on the FOX News
Channel and has visited
military bases across the
nation speaking, playing
and teaching the fun fam-
ily success game he created
called, "That's the Ticket."
McMahon will visit NAS
Jax April 3 to kick off a
pilot program that is aimed
at helping service members
and their children form a
cohesive winning family
unit that will remain strong
and cooperative through
the long separations associ-
ated with being a military
family.
This will include a work-
shop for parent's where
McMahon will teach them
how to use the game, fol-
lowed by a Family Fun
Night with a pizza dinner.
This is where parents will
get to play the game with
their children and quickly
see their kids getting excit-
ed about exceeding their
parent's expectations at
school and at home. The
game will be given to the
participants free of charge
and signed by its inventor.
This way it can be used at
home over and over.
The FFSC is are looking
for 50 active duty fami-
lies who have at least one
child between the ages of 5
and 16, who enjoy playing
games, love to laugh togeth-
er and will eat pizza. There
will be prizes to win includ-
ing Disney tickets.
McMahon believes in the
strength of the family unit
and affirms that, "Your
kids are more powerful and
capable than you could ever
imagine." Come and join
us to find out how you can
inspire them to excel.

RESCUE: 'Dusty Dogs' help
snag crew from sinking vessel
From Page 1
Dusty 617 then launched from the Sacagawea and
proceeded back to the Nadi. It was early afternoon
with about 20 knots of wind and 12 to 14-foot waves.
Nadi was anchored and aligned into the wind. From
the initial flyovers the crew determined that they
would lower their rescue swimmer down between the
two masts where there was no wire, allowing maxi-
mum room to execute the rescue and maintain visual
reference to the rest of the ship. They also determined
that the rescue would require two trips, since the heli-
copter had room for seven passengers and there were
10 crewmembers on the ship.
The pilot positioned the helicopter 10 feet above and
in between the two masts, while Hernandez made
verbal position calls to assist the pilot in maintaining
a good position in order to execute the rescue. When
the helicopter was established in a steady hover,
Graham was lowered down to the ship's deck. The sea
state made it difficult to plant the rescue swimmer
on the deck so the crew chief timed the arrival of the
swimmer to the deck with the lull of the waves. The
pilot kept a close eye on the masts, while maintain-
ing altitude vice climbing and descending with the
ship, which pitched up and down five to 10 feet as the
waves passed underneath.
Graham hit the deck as Hernandez made sure to
payout extra slack on the hoist so that if the ship
started pitching again it would not lift Graham back
off the deck. Once on deck he was able to communicate
to the crew how the recovery was going to happen.
The first three crewmembers were hoisted off one at a
time. Graham came up with the fourth individual and
the aircraft departed the hover and returned to the
Sacagawea to drop off the four crewmembers for medi-
cal care. The helicopter was then repositioned back
over the Nadi; the remaining six individuals were
recovered and then taken back to the Sacagawea for
treatment as well. Each trip took about 20-30 minutes
to complete. The pilot landed on deck and shut down
as the medical staff examined the individuals.
After the medical examinations were complete, the
medical staff determined that the survivors were mal-
nourished and dehydrated. One crewmember from the
Nadi had a broken hand that needed special attention.
The aircrew and medical staff then departed back to
their ship. The Nadi eventually sank later that night.
Through the hard work and dedication of HS-7
Dusty Dogs, the medical staff and USS Sacagawea,
the individuals were rescued from a sinking vessel.
The exceptional flexibility of HS-7 was demonstrated
in the way the maintenance department flawlessly
reconfigured the helicopter from a special operations
configuration into a medical evacuation capable plat-
form.
Furthermore, the aircrew shifted their frame of
mind from the training exercise to a real world rescue.
Everyone performed their duties with the utmost pro-
fessionalism to accomplish the mission.
FACSFAC: 'I just try to do my
job to the best of my ability ...'
From Page 1
He has received three letters of appreciation from the
Federal Aviation Administration Jacksonville Center for
his dynamic management of airspace during periods of
inclement weather.
FACSFAC Jax Commanding Officer Cmdr. Curtis
Stubbs stated that Kerns has gone well-beyond what we
expect from our Sailors today.
The late Adm. Robert Pirie understood the importance
of the ATC rating after the establishment of the Federal
Aviation Act of 1958. Pirie fought for and succeeded in
keeping this Navy rating alive.
"AC 1 Kerns is a product of that struggle 50 years ago.
His ground-breaking performance as a forward control-
ler in Iraq will serve as a template for future air opera-
tions and the lessons learned will further justify forward
deployed controllers," said Stubbs. "I could not ask for a
better Sailor to lead my troops or represent this command
than AC 1 Kerns!"
On receiving the news of his selection as FASCFAC Jax
Sailor of the Year and ATC of the Year and nomination
as Naval Air Force Atlantic Sailor of the Year, Kerns was
happy and shocked. "I just try to do my job to the best of
my ability and take care of my Sailors," he said.
COMNAVAIRLANT will announce their Sailor of the
Year tomorrow in a ceremony in Norfolk, Va. Kerns is
among five nominees from various other aviation shore
commands subordinate to Naval Air Force Atlantic.

"The faces changed but
the makeup was the same.
Active duty and reserve
PAO's, officers and enlist-
ed, civilians and military;
all working together. We
escorted South Florida
reporters as well as nation-
al and international print
and electronic media."
He said the media were
not as savvy on mili-
tary issues as here in
Jacksonville. "Several
times, I've taken reporters
on board an aircraft carri-
er had them ask me, 'how
many Soldiers are on this
boat?"'
He became the NAS Jax
PAO in 2006. "The only rea-
son I have been successful
in managing the media cen-
ter during Fleet Week or
managing the public affairs
program for this base
is because of the people
around me," he said. "I've
had the pleasure and good
fortune of working with the
finest professionals in the
Navy. In fact, the staff in
the NAS Jax PAO is the
best staff in the world, in
any profession. In my mind,
no one has ever worked
with any group of profes-
sionals as good as these
guys.
"There are so many people
here that I'll really miss. It
goes beyond 'co-workers,' it
goes beyond 'friends.' Many
of the folks here, includ-
ing my PAO cohorts at the
region, NS Mayport and
NSB Kings Bay, Ga., are a
lot more like family to me.
There will always be a spe-
cial place in my heart for
you," he continued.
"I am very proud of this
base, from the commanding
officer and executive offi-
cer down to the youngest
Sailor. I'll always be proud
to have been a part of the
things we've accomplished
here," added Crews.
When asked about his
personal philosophy, Crews
simply said, "I remember
once when I was about five
listening to my mother,
father and grandmother
talking about a funeral.
I asked them why people
were born and had to die.
My grandmother, who was
pretty hard of hearing said,
'Well, the collard greens
unless your Uncle Frank
comes over.' My parents
just let it go and I haven't
pursued any real philo-
sophical thinking since that
time," he said.
He and his wife, Mary
Ann, plan to travel exten-
sively in the near future.
"Mary Ann grew up in New
York City in Queens. We're
great together, but at fam-
ily reunions she sticks out
like a bagel on a plate of
grits," he said.
According to Crews, his
family is analogous of fried
catfish, grits and hushpup-
pies. "Mary Ann is a bagel
with lox and cream cheese,"
he points out.
He is introspective about
their backgrounds, though.
"My wife is second genera-
tion Cuban and Irish. I tell
folks back home that her
ancestors were not fighting
against our ancestors who
left their farms to serve in
the Civil War. They were
all too busy digging pota-
toes and rolling cigars," he
stated.
Crews doesn't have any
immediate plans to go back
to work. He explained that
Mary Ann will continue
working as a registered
nurse.
"I'll be retired, so one
of us has to be working
steady," he said. "She is
looking forward to having a
house-husband. Of course, I
won't be the kind that cooks
and cleans house while she
is working. I'm going to be a
trophy husband who trains
for 5K races and works on
writing the great American
novel all day."
His main hobbies are
physical fitness and com-
prising his family geneal-
ogy.
FloridaUniformTfic

Crews has a daughter,
Heather, who resides in
Orlando with her husband
and their two children; and
a son, Matt of Orange Park.
He and Mary Ann also live
in Orange Park but, "We
don't plan on being home
much," he says. "We'll do a
lot of traveling once I retire.
The sun will set between
where we're going and
home."
Editor's note: On behalf
of the men and women
aboard NAS Jax and
it's tenant command, we
thank Rick for his pro-
fessional excellence and
friendship. His great
enthusiasm, sense of
humor and impeccable
leadership will be sorely
missed by all.

Bridge troll
part of
car dealer
conspiracy
GREEN COVE SPRINGS-
As it turns out, there's more to
the story of the troll that's
been harassing people trying
to cross the bridge to Green
Cove Springs. Word is out that
a group of car dealers, all
competitors of the Garber
AutoMall, held a private
meeting to discuss tactics to
get their market share back
from Garber. Ever since
Garber built their giant new
auto mall on highway 17, just
5 miles south of Orange Park,
people are heading there for a
better selection and lower
prices. One of the Garber's
competitors came up with the
idea of hiring an evil troll to
stop people from crossing the
bridge.
Jenny Barnett of Orange Park,
a recent customer of Garber,
said the troll jumped over the
guard rail and ran into the
middle of the street as she was
approaching the bridge. She
thought the troll was actually
kind of a cute little thing try-
ing to be a bad guy. While the
troll initially acted tough and
wouldn't move, he quickly
jumped out of the way as she
punched the gas pedal of her
Ford F-150. "That little pur-
ple-haired critter isn't going
to stop me from getting a
negotiation free deal at
Garber" Jenny said. She got to
Garber, no problem, and said
she saved a fortune compared
to dealers selling the same
brands.
The Garber Auto Mall is fast
becoming known for their All-
American Test Drive where
consumers can test drive all
the American truck brands
side-by-side. Plus at Garber
customers have the conven-
ience of dealing with one
salesperson for all the brands.
The Garber Auto Mall is
indeed the one-stop-shop for
American made vehicles. Jim
McGraw of Fleming Island
recently bought a Chevy truck
from the Auto Mall. When we
talked to Jim he said he knew
he wanted the Chevy but it
really was nice to test drive
the Ford and Dodge at the
same location. No running
from dealer to dealer. This
was the best way to buy!
(Lpy. 1 .. Jeep D----e *MERCURY
Nothing compares to Garber's One-Stop-Shop experience for all the American brands. Work with one salesperson
and drive all the brands you want in one location. Then decide what's right for you. There's no better way to buy.

While car dealers will always
be competing for sales, we
have to say the troll was
something we've never seen
before. The tactic looks like
it's backfiring for the dealers.
People seem to get a kick out
of the troll, even though he
tries to annoy them and stop
them from crossing the bridge
to Green Cove Springs.
Both Garber and the troll are
gaining popularity.
