ON THE HOMEFRONT
Short-timer military wives have nothing to lose
Sarah Smiley
5Special Contributor
curious thing happens to a
military wife when she knows
her family will relocate soon.
I liken it to the last glass of wine,
the one that makes you go from the
woman who would never sing "Sweet
Home Alabama" in public to the
viwman who requests it at a bar and
then shushes everyone so they dan
hear her sing it. An impending move
causes military wives to do things
they might regret later, but it doesn't
matter because they will already be
gone by then.
Before we get to that, however,
let's back up a bit and define "soon."
Experienced military wives probably
read the first sentence of this column
and chuckled. "Aren't we all moving
'soon'?" they might have said. "Aren't
we living in a constant state of 'mov-
ing soon'?"
While it's true that most military
wives suffer from a lingering sense
of temporariness no matter how long
(another word that could stand clari-
fiation) their loved one's orders may
be, something changes once moving is
imminent.
'My mom, a military wife of more
Haan 30 years, lived in the same
Uty for the last 25 years of my dad's
Seer. It was an anomaly understood
Nily by my dad's various detailers.
3yzen so, just by the fact that mom
Was a "military wife," she lived in
3.nstant fear of the next move, which
Usually never came. So it's fair to say
1;iat military wives are always "mov-
aiig soon," even when they don't move
..pr decades or more, but once the ser-
YA. -\* ;
vice member has orders in his hands
and the date and location of the next
move is, in theory, final, that is when
the military wife officially becomes a
"short-timer."
I had forgotten about this phenom-
enon of military life (perhaps because
we've been at our current duty station
for going on five years now), until I
embarrassed myself at my son's tee-
ball game by confronting the opposing
coach for yelling insults at the chil-
dren.
"I'm so embarrassed," I said more
than once the next day.
"Ah, don't worry about it," my friend
Beth, a military wife, said. "You're a
short-timer now, aren't you? Heck, I
only have eight weeks left here; I'm
liable to cause all kinds of trouble
before then."
Short-timer military wives have
been known to do many things in
the-weeks leading up to their moves.
Chewing out a tee-ball coach is prob-
ably the least of them. Shore-timers
have dramatically quit jobs, sun-
bathed on the driveway (even if they
shouldn't wear a bikini in public),
yelled at principals, and told their
neighbors what they really think
about the pink flamingoes in their
yard.
When my husband and I were leav-
ing our last duty station, I finally got
up the nerve to confront the teenag-
ers one house away who threw wild
parties when their father was out of
town. Out into the driveway I went in
my flannel pajamas, traipsed across
the wet yard, and told the teens, who
were standing on their father's drive-
way smoking and drinking, "If you
don't all disappear in 15 minutes, I'm
calling the cops!"
"Go home, lady," one of them yelled
back and kicked an empty beer can at
me.
Me, a "lady?" It sounded so old,
so matronly. Sure, I was standing
in the grass in pajamas that looked
my grandfather's, but I was only 25
years old at the time. Embarrassed
and more than a little deflated, I went
back inside to my husband who was
asleep and didn't care. I was mad that
I didn't stick up for myself, and even
more mad that I didn't actually call
the cops. But mostly, I was mad that
the teenagers had always made me
feel that way.
About a week later, after my hus-
band had his official orders to change
duty stations, I was pulling weeds in
the yard when the teenagers drove
by in a beat-up tuck. They yelled out
their window and called me a name
that cah't be printed in the newspa-
per.
But it least it wasn't, 'lady."
I stood up, waved my shovel in the
air, and yelled, "A *A%&$, huh? Now
that's more like it!"
. The next night the teenagers had a
party. I called the police.
It is both liberating and anxiety-
provoking to leave a place that has
become familiar. Emotions run high,
and, sometimes, inhibitions take a
back seat.
Which is to say, if you want to know
what a military wife really thinks,
wait until her husband has orders to
move. Or give her another glass of
wine. Whichever.

NAS Jax hosts tribute
to former base XO
By Kaylee LaRocque
Editor
,M ore than 400 service members,
Civil service civilians, retirees,
Their families and runners from
the Jacksonville community turned out
for NAS Jacksonville's third annual Capt.
Charles Cornett 10K Navy Run Saturday.
The event featured a 10-kilometer com-
petitive run, a five-kilometer non-com-
petitive walk and a shoe fair in the Navy
-Exchange (NEX) parking lot.
This annual event was originally called
the Navy Run and was renamed after
Cornett, a former NAS Jax executive officer
who founded the run on the base. Cornett
participated in 96 marathons including
the Boston Marathon and Marine Corps
Marathon and was a co-founder of the
Florida Striders in 1978. Cornett passed
away June 25, 2004.
"This is a wonderful event and I know
my father would absolutely adore this. He
would be thrilled to see the band, pace car
and all the runners out here today," said
Sandi Cornett.
One member of the Cornett family who
was especially happy to be at the event
was 16-year-old Mark Cornett, the grand-
son of Charles Cornett.
"I ran this last year and placed first in
my age group so I'm back again. Plus, it's
aIy birthday and it's a great way to cel-
ebrate it," he said.
SOf course, none of it would have been
possible without the support of numerous
volunteers. "We've got a great turnout and
great weather today so it should be a really
good event. I'd really like to thank all the
Volunteers who helped put this all togeth-
er. They are the ones who make this all
happen," added NAS Jax Fitness Director
Tim McKinney, who coordinated the event.
The festivities began early in the morn-
ing with a few runners registering late
and others taking extra time to stretch. A
few minutes before the start of the race,
the runners assembled at the starting line
'n Child Street between the NEX and the
post office.

After starting on Child Street, the course
turned right at Akron Street, left on
Allegheny and out to Perimeter Road along
Highway 17. Runners were then taken
along the perimeter of the base before
coming out behind the housing area on
Mustin Road. The course then continued
down Mustin past the golf course and up
to Enterprise Street where the runners
turned left before heading down the stretch
to the finish line.
The first person to cross the finish line in
the 5K was 11-year-old Bryce Waterman
with a time of 26:25. He was followed by
12-year-old Kiel Dominguez coming in at
28:44 and 11-year-old Morgan Meece (plac-
ing first in the female category) with a
time of 29:52. Joseph Miner came in third
in the male category with a time of 30:11
and Lilian Mendoza placed second in the
female category with a time of 30:36 fol-
lowed by LaTonya Capers at 32:14.
"This is pretty cool that I came in first
Michelle Bacon her bib with her number for the
because I also came in first last year. My
parents are also participating my mom
and dog are walking and my dad is doing
the 10K," stated Waterman, happily.

Coming in first again this year in the 10K
was John Metzgar with a time of 34:30. He
was followed by Kevin Sweeny who crossed
at 36:39 and Paul McRae, who finished
with a time of 37:03.
"It was really hot and humid running

USO hosts annual golf tournament
E aylee LaRocque I I
The Greater Jacksonville Area USO
held its fifth annual Bob P. Coonan
Memorial USO Golf Tournament
April 3, to honor former USO Executive
Director Bob Coonan, who passed away in
February 2003 after battling cancer.
The event raised almost $35,000 for the
USO as dozens of active and retired mili-
tary personnel and members of the commu-
nity competed in the event.
Formerly called the Annual Charity Golf
Tournament, the USO changed the name
to honor Coonan. Coonan, a retired Navy
captain, servedhis last tour on active duty
as NAS Jacksonville's executive officer.
"We are out here today to honor my pre-
cessor, retired Navy Capt. Bob Coonan, we
renamed this tournament five years ago
and it's a great opportunity to say thanks
to him for his service and sacrifice to the
military and the USO. It's also a great
opportunity for the community to raise
much needed funds for Operation USO,"
said Greater Jacksonville Area Executive
Director K.C. McCarthy.
"I'm out here today to participate in
the annual tournament to support USO.

as we possibly can," said Rear Adm.

Did the unicorn make the cut?
By Chaplain
t.) Joe Molina
NAS Jax Cha.pel
T he story of Noah and
the Ark has not suf-
fered from loss of
popularity nor fascination
over all these centuries.
It is a classic epic of bib-
lical proportions (no punt
intended).
It is also extremely mar-
ketable. There is a seg-
ment of the toy industry
built around the manufac-
ture and sale of the ark
and its unique inhabitants.
Children's books and schol-
arly commentaries line the
shelves in bookstores and
libraries. In fact, politi-
cal difficulties and chal-
lenging logistical problems
have not stopped expedi-
tions from climbing the icy
peaks of Mt. Ararat (bor-
ders of Turkey and Russian
Republics) in hopes of
finding the petrified fossil
remains of the ark. The
questions, debates and
scholarly research remain,
"Were they looking in the
right place?"
Entire theories endeavor
to explain how Noah man-
aged to deal with the dino-
saurs. Other explanations
tackle how Noah managed
to fit all the vast varieties
of animal species (male and
female) into the ark. To
be sure, the search for the
answer has been known to
CHAPLAIN'S CORNER
create heated
conversations
in some cir-
cles.
I won-
der, really,
whether we
are just burn-
ing valuable
energy on the
wrong ques-
tions regard-
ing Noah and
the Ark. I am
of the opin-
ion that the
Chaplain (Lt.) Joe Molina
biblical account of Noah,
(his family, the ark and the
smelly animals he had to
live with for 150 days), is
much broader and deeper
than those other ques-
tions that many people are
burning energy to resolve.
Yes, there is ample geologi-
cal evidence to support the
ancient flood theory which
was massive and devastat-
ing. How, then, did Noah
manage to fit all existing
species of animals into
a boat 450 feet long by 75
feet wide and 45 feet high
and feed all of them for
150 days? I don't know. I
submit that the account of
Noah and the Ark was not
written to settle scientific
arguments.
Actually, when I read this
m a rvel ou s
epic, I'm after
bigger fish.
When I read
this classic
story, I seek
to draw truth
that tran-
scends science
and leads me
into the realm
of God's eter-
nal and con-
sistent princi-
ples. As far as
I'm concerned
debates about geology are
too narrow. Debates about
the logistics and size of the
ark are too myopic. The
heart of the story is much
larger than that.
The heart of this account
is Noah's journey of faith.
To our delight we will dis-
cover that there is much to
learn for our own journey of
faith through Noah's story.
How we mature and develop
our personal faith is vastly
more important than polem-
ics, debates and arguments.
Our faith is what will carry
us through this journey and
beyond. In fact, our faith is
eternal. Long after you and
I are gone, debates will con-
tinue, egos will still clash
but our individual faith is
forever!

Many colleges to be represented at upcoming education fair
From the Navy College Office
The Navy College Office is sponsoring an education
fair April 22 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the NAS Jax
Bachelor Officer's Quarters.
The following colleges will be represented at the
event: Central Texas College, City University, Coastline
Community College, Dallas County Community College,
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Empire State
College, Excelsior College, Florida Community College,
Jacksonville, Fort Hays State University, George
Washington University, Old Dominion University, St.
Joseph's College of Maine, Southern New Hampshire
University, Thomas Edison State College, Troy State
University, University of Maryland and Vincennes
University.
The Navy College Learning Center, United Services
Military Apprenticeship Program and Troops to Teachers
will also have booths set up.
For more information, call 542-2477/78.
What is faith? Here's a
classic definition, "Faith
is being sure'of what we
hope for and certain of
what we do not see." (Holy
Bible, Hebrews 11:1). If
you asked Noah to define
faith he might have said,
"faith is readiness to obey."
Obedience is a function of
responsive faith. Therefore
faith and obedience are
action words. In fact obe-
dience demonstrates the
measure of our faith in the
things of God. That, in a
nutshell, is the central
message of Noah's journey.
Indeed, the extent of Noah's
obedience is publicly dis-
played on a mammoth scale.
Love can make us do that.
When one of my children
was 3 to 6 years old he had
a fantastic habit, which has
worn off as he approached
his teen years. Without
warning, even in the mid-
dle of restaurants, he would
yell out, ''Dad, I love you."
And, I would yell it right
back, "I love you too!" It
was fun and we were nei-
ther ashamed nor embar-
rassed.
Noah's unashamed dem-
onstration of obedience was
public and unconditional.
God's demonstration of love
for Noah and his family
was a commitment of the
Almighty's unchanging
integrity, protection and
power. That's where I want
to be!

FROM THE FLEET
Look sharp, be sharp!
Show your Navy pride
By FORCM(SS/AW/SW) Charles Dassance
Force Master Chief, Naval Network Warfare Comnmnd
G ood day, shipmates. This week, I'd like to talk
with you about a topic that many Sailors unfor-
tunately take for granted the need for everyone,
from the highest ranking officers to the newest seaman
recruits, to always present a professional, squared away
appearance when they come to work each day. In many
ways, your appearance is just as important as the qual-
ity of the work that you do.
What is the first thing that you notice whenever you see
another Sailor walking around? Do you look at her uni-
form to see if it is clean, pressed and has sharp creases?
Do you notice whether or not he has shaved or has a prop-
er haircut? If so, then you are doing your job of watching
out for your shipmates. And what is the first thought that
comes to your mind if you see a fellow Sailor who has a
sloppy, careless appearance? You probably think that, just
as he doesn't care too much about how he looks at work
each day, he is probably equally lackadaisical about the
job he does.
This is why it is important for you to take the time every
day before you come to work to properly prepare every
part of your uniform. Whether you are wearing utilities
or working blues or whites, make sure you iron your shirt
and pants or skirt thoroughly and put sharp creases into
them. Also, you should always keep on hand a clean and
pressed pair of dress blues or whites in case you need to
wear them.
Your shoes should always be freshly polished and, if
you are male, shave every morning unless a waiver is
authorized by the commanding officer. Mustaches are
authorized but shall be kept neatly and closely trimmed.
No portion of the mustache shall extend below the lip line
of the upper lip.
Both male and female Sailors must also ensure that
their haircuts conform to Navy standards. For men, hair
above the ears and around the neck shall be tapered from
the lower natural hairline upwards at least three-fourths
of an inch and outward not greater than three-fourths of
inch to blend with your hairstyle. Hair on the back of the
neck must not touch the collar. Hair shall be no longer
than four inches and may not touch the ears or collar,
extend below eyebrows when headgear is removed and not
show under front edge of headgear or interfere with you
properly wearing military headgear. The bulk of the hair
shall not exceed two inches in length.
For women, hairstyles shall not be outrageously multi-
colored or faddish, to include shaved portions of the scalp
(other than the neckline) or have designs cut or braided
into the hair. Hair coloring must look natural and com-
plement the individual. Haircuts and styles shall present
a balanced appearance. Lopsided and extremely asymmet-
rical styles are not authorized. Ponytails, pigtails, widely
spaced individual hanging locks and braids which pro-
trude from the head are not authorized. Multiple braids
are authorized.
These are the basic steps you should follow to present a
professional appearance at work each day. However, the
need to look sharp doesn't end when you're off duty. You
must remember that although you don't have to work 24
hours a day, you are still a part of the military during
your off-duty hours. This means that you must also dress
and look professionally when you are on liberty.
For men, earrings are prohibited when you are in civil-
ian clothes in a duty status, just as they are prohibited
while you are in uniform. For both men and women, tat-
toos, body art and brands on the head, face, neck or scalp
are banned. Individual tattoos, body art and brands
exposed by wearing a short sleeve uniform shirt shall
be no larger in size than the wearer's hand with fingers
extended and joined with the thumb touching the base of
the index finger. Follow all of these instructions, and you
should look professional while on liberty.
Being a Sailor carries with it a responsibility to reflect
positively on the Navy and the nation you represent. This
is something you shouldn't forsake just because you are
not in uniform. In the civilian world, it will matter just as
much how you look wearing a suit and tie as how you now
look wearing your Navy uniform. In both cases, care and
attention to detail are what will allow you to always look
your best. And if you look your best everyday, then you
will have the confidence to perform at your best, and oth-
ers will have confidence in you.

Kevin McMahon, creator of the family game That's the Ticket, gives a presentation at the
Youth Activities Center. April 3 for NAS ax families. "I'm here today because it's Month
of the Military Child. We are having this event to help military parents and hold a family
game night. I developed this for my own family years ago and it became a product for
the world about five years ago," said McMahon. "This program helps parents become
focused and committed to the things they really want and they can translate that into
things their kids can win instead of what they have to do. When they complete some-
thing on the game board, they win some tickets. When they don't, they have pay their
parents. When the children win, they earn some reward and can buy it with their tick-
ets." The event which was hosted by the Fleet and Family Support Center and Morale,
Welfare and Recreation Department, consisted of a parent and children's workshop,
pizza dinner and playing the game.

TOPCATS: VS-31 decommissioned,
two S-3 squadrons remain here
From Page 1
.Topcats who are here today,
you are ushering out this
fine squadron in great fash-
ion. Many of you will go
on to other commands to
support the naval aviation
enterprise and the world's
:greatest maritime force.
:And, it's something to be
proud of.' I know that I'm
proud I was part of it many
years ago," stated Carey. "I
can think of no better trib-
ute for the VS community
"than the 'best of the best'
continuingg to support naval
,aviation."
-- "Seeing all the former
-Topcats here today is
Impressive. VS-31 became
the first Atlantic Fleet
.S squadron in 1949, one
Many firsts that this
Squadron has realized. This
Squadron has supported
Many foreign policy deci-
*sons and many crises," con-
rMued Carey.
'"They supported the Suez
..Canal Crisis and they were
Ze first squadron to deploy
Sid arrive on station to
Uipport Operation Desert
.Shield, literally within days
ZT- the invasion of Kuwait.
nd on 9/11, the squadron
simultaneously deployed to
two different aircraft carri-
ers," he said.
';"This is kind of a bitter-
-sweet moment. Those of
ius who are former VS-31
members, there is a part of
-us that is still in that air-
mlane, here and at NAS
Cecil Field. But it's good to
,come back and see all the
'young people who man this
squadronn; the level of profi-
ciency and professionalism
~hey have," Carey added.
."..There are times that I
wish I was back on the air-
'craft carrier with the deck
[itching, getting ready to
inan up, smelling the JP5,
:getting in the jet and get-
'ing ready to catapult. Life
just doesn't get much better
ihan that," said Carey.
,.-"To the heroes who are

.should be excited for your
'future because your future
1s limitless. As you move

go with the confidence that

forward," concluded Carey.
"IAlso giving some remarks
during the ceremony was
Capt. Sterling Gilliam, com-
`iander, Carrier Air Wing
qline.
:"' I am honored and for-
tunate to be associated
with some tremendous S-3
:squadrons but none of them
have come close to the sus-

and-a-half month deploy-
ment on board USS John

Officer Cmdr. Muhammad
Muzzafar Khan with a
Meritorious Service Medal
for his dedicated service to
the squadron.
Khan then took the podi-
um to give his final remarks
as commanding officer of
the squadron. "When I took
command of this fine squad-
ron, I was on 'cloud nine.'
And that's where I remain
since that day. It's been one
phenomenal experience.
I've been living a dream the
last year," said Khan.
"For a kid growing up in
Pakistan, we heard abqut
the capabilities of the U.S.
military and we were in
absolute awe. And then,
we would hear about the
U.S. Navy in the Indian
Ocean, and sometimes see
the aircraft carriers con-
ducting flight operations,
and I was so impressed,
he said. "But never in my
wildest dreams would I
imagine that I'd be com-
manding a U.S. Navy
squadron. As an immigrant,
I didn't think that was pos-
sible. But only in this great
Navy can an immigrant
reach as high as the goal he
sets for himself. This is truly
the land of opportunity."
"It is testament to our
diversity and equal oppor-
tunity policies, we are all
about people and reward-
ing hard work. If you look
behind you, you can see the
brave men and women of
VS-31. It's a sad sight to
see only one-third of the
squadron here, but we had
an enormous number of
transfers," Khan continued.
"These men and women
are exceedingly committed
to their duties. While on
deployment for seven and
a half months, I watched
them work 14-plus hours
every day to fulfill their
duties. The commitment
that's made everyday by
these men and women
makes me proud to be an
American and honored to
be a steward of this fine
squadron," Khan said. "I

shoulders of these giants,
therefore I'd like to dedi-
cate this ceremony to the
talented and motivated
folks of VS-31 both present
and past."
"Topcats, I have enjoyed
watching you succeed and
build skills that will help
you transition to other com-
munities. I thank you for
your leadership and dedica-
tion. It has been an honor
and a privilege to work
with you. Your professional-
ism made my job extremely
easy. Our successes are the
result of not one person but
the entire Topcat team,"
Khan remarked.
"I would also like to dedi-
cate this ceremony to our
families. What we do is not
easy. We often pack up and
go to sea and our families
know they are second to the
job. They are our strength,
heart and soul. They make
a tremendous sacrifice and
we appreciate their love and
support so we can provide
our nation with brave men
and women and preserve
our freedom," said Khan.
The ceremony closed with
reading "The Watch" and
the stand-down of two VS-
31 pilots at the cockpit of
the squadron's last S-3B
Viking aircraft.
VS-31 Sailors, past
and present, have proud-
ly served from the
Jacksonville area sinde
1973. Previously located at
NAS Quonset Point, R.I.,
the squadron moved to NAS
Cecil Field and eventually
to its current home base of
NAS Jacksonville.
In August 2007, VS-
31 returned from its last
deployment in the Arabian
Gulf on board USS John C.
Stennis (CVN 74) in sup-
port of Operation Iraqi and
Enduring Freedom.
Flying the S-3 "Viking"
multi-mission aircraft,
VS-31 is comprised of 190
squadron members and six
aircraft.
All of their S-3 aircraft
have been reassigned to
other VS squadrons. Two
VS squadrons remain active
at NAS Jacksonville.

DEPLOYMENT: 345th Combat

From Page 1

Operation Iraqi Freedom
in 2003 and who now
works for the Veteran's
Administration and the
Wounded Warrior Project..
"I'm here today to tell you
that the sacrifices you will
be making for the next. year
are not in vain. Whatever
your views are about the
war. you're here today and
that makes you heroes. You
are prepared to serve and
sacrifice so others can live.
You will profoundly impact
countless lives, Iraqi and
Americans. I wouldn't be
here today if it weren't
for people like you." said
Pruden.
"As we were driving one
day while patrolling in Iraq,
the whole world suddenly
exploded. When I tried to
use the brakes, I realized
my legs weren't working.
My team got me to the clos-
est medical unit and applied
basic lifesaving techniques.
I was then flown to the
combat support hospital. As
soon as I reached the hospi-
tal, I was rushed into sur-
gery. For the next 48 hours,
they kept me alive and did
two more surgeries to sta-
bilize me. I also received
12 units of' blood and from
what I heard, there was not
enough blood, so hospital
staff members donated to
save my life. I am forever
grateful to them for donat-
ing so much of themselves,"
Pruden continued.
"Without the Soldiers at
combat support hospital, I
would not be alive today.
Thanks for all that you
will do. And, to the fami-
lies here today, thank you
so much for your sacrifices
and allowing your loved
ones to do so much good."
Col. Danny Baldwin,
commander of the 345th
Combat Support Hospital
also praised his troops.
"Soldiers of 345th Combat
Support Hospital, you've
gone and done so many big
training events to get your-
selves ready for this mission
that we're about to go on.
To our family members, I
assure you that the Soldiers
of 345th Combat Support
Hospital are trained
and ready to take care of
American Soldiers and save
lives and come back safely
to you," he stated.
Brig. Gen. Margaret
Wilmoth, commanding
general, 332nd Medical
Brigade, also praised the
unit. "It's been a long year
of training. You have not
let anything deter you from
the mission of getting to
this day so you can go and
take care of our wounded
Soldiers," said Wilmoth.
"You would not be here
today without the support
of your families, colleagues
and your employers. The
past year has only been the
beginning for you are about
to fulfill your commitments
to our Army. You are going
to provide high quality
medical and nursing care
to our wounded warriors.
There is no higher quality
in our Army."
She also stressed that the
Soldiers need to write their
mothers and that the fami-
lies should bond together
and join the family support
group.
The unit drills at the
Armed Forces Reserve
Center at NAS Jax and is
comprised of Soldiers from
all over the country. "As a
combat support hospital we
do everything that a civil-
ian hospital does. We have
surgeons, nurses and medi-
cal support staff and do
everything that a civilian
hospital does. A lot of these
Soldiers are volunteers who
are going back for a sec-
ond time. Doctors are only
required to be overseas for
90 days at a time, so many
are choosing to go back for
a second tour," explained
Maj. William Ritter, the
unit's public affairs officer.
"This unit mobilized in
2003 at the beginning of
the war so some of these
soldiers have been there
before."
After the ceremony, the
Soldiers spent time with
their families before flying
out early the next morning.

SPOUSE'S PERSPECTIVE
Financial fitness:
Spending and saving
By Beth Wilson
Military Spouse Support Contributor
Several years ago, I read an article
by financial counselor who asked
a class to estimate how much each
individual spent on three categories; cof-
fee/soda, eating out and savings.
They were then asked to keep a log of
expenditures on these
areas for 30 days.
Students were shocked to
see how much they spent
and how inaccurate their
estimates were.
On average, students ..
underestimated their
spending by 32 percent.
Similarly, less than 50
percent of the class con-
tributed to a savings plan
during the same period.
Knowing where your
money goes is the first
step to gaining control of .
your finances and mak- *.
ing it truly work for you.
If you are not sure where'
your money goes, log Beth
every penny you spend
for the next 30 days. You may be surprised
at what you find.
Last week, we discussed your financial
picture; income, bills and expenses. Let's
focus on a spending plan this week. I love
the term 'spending plan' because it puts
me in control of what I spend and insures
obligations are met.
A spending plan will help you know
exactly where your money goes, prepare for
major purchases, provide for unexpected
expenses while avoiding wasting money.
There are many resources to assist you in
developing a spending plan that will meet
your needs and fit your lifestyle. USAA's
educational foundation (www.usaaedfoun-
dation.org) has free information and online
tools to assist you.
Your command has a trained service
member called a command financial spe-
cialist (CFS) that is equipped to help you
build your spending plan. Fleet and Family
Support Center as well as most armed forc-
es member banks provide these services
free to their members.
Two key points in your spending plan are
savings and debt reduction. Savings should
be the first thing you 'pay.' By viewing sav-
ings as a bill you pay yourself you will see
your savings grow enabling you to be pre-
pared for the unexpected as well as afford
that new game system or vehicle while
avoiding interest and the expense of credit.
Make a savings of 10-15 percent of your
pay your goal. If you can-
not save that much now
work up to that amount.
Make paying off high
interest accounts your
next priority. Pay as
much as possible on this
debt. Making minimum
payments neither saves
you money nor builds
your credit score. If you
have a credit card bal-
ance of $3,000 at 19.8
percent interest and only
A make the minimum pay-
i)i' ment of $15 it will take
you 39 years to pay off
that balance but at a cost
of $10,000 in interest
Vilson charges.
Finding money to save
and apply to debt can be easier than you
think. Empty your pockets each night into
a piggy bank, in a year you will have recov-
ered over $280. Cut soda consumption
by one can a day and you'll save $26 per
month. Cut out two gourmet coffee drinks
per week and save $590 per year. Pack
lunches, eat out two fewer times per week,
shop at the commissary (a 30 percent sav-
ings overall on your food bill) and use cou-
pons.
For more information on saving
money and reducing debt check out the
Department of Defense approved program
at www.militarysaves.com. Other savings
sites include www.smartaboutmoney.org,
www.moneyinstructor.com, www.stretcher.
com and www.betterbudgeting.com.
Next week we'll talk about investing,
planning for major purchases and under-
standing your credit rating.

From Page 1
Director Tim McKinney.
"It's great because now we
can show the smaller chil-
dren how to have a healthy
lifestyle."
Patrons can also.get some
assistance with their work-
outs. "I'm a personal trainer
and am available to develop
individual programs for our
patrons and update them
as needed to keep workouts
from becoming stagnant,"
said Fitness Instructor/
Trainer Emily Dunlap.
"This really is a great
opportunity for the parent
who stays home with the
smaller children because
they can bring them in
when they work out and
keep them within their
sight. It will help parents
get back into working out
and living a healthy life-
style," she continued,
enthusiastically.
The new center, formal-
ly a teen center, has been
completely refurbished with
new paint, carpet, exercise
equipment and a special
play area for younger chil-
dren.

USO hosts annual golf tournament
oBy Kaylee LaRocque tF
The Greater Jacksonville Area USO
held its fifth annual Bob P. Coonan
Memorial USO Golf Tournament
April 3, to honor former USO Executive
Director Bob Coonan, who passed away in
February 2003 after battling cancer.
The event raised almost $35,000 for the
USO as dozens of active and retired mili-
tary personnel and members of the commu-
nity competed in the event.
Formerly called the Annual Charity Golf
Tournament, the USO changed the name
to honor Coonan. Coonan, a retired Navy
captain, served his last tour on active duty
as NAS Jacksonville's executive officer.
"We are out here today to honor my pre-
cessor, retired Navy Capt. Bob Coonan, we
renamed this tournament five years ago
and it's a great opportunity to say thanks
to him for his service and sacrifice to the
military and the USO. It's also a great
opportunity for the community to raise
much needed funds for Operation USO,"
said Greater Jacksonville Area Executive
Director K.C. McCarthy.
"I'm out here today to participate in
the annual tournament to support USO.
NAS Jax Executive Officer Capt. Steve
Holmes checks in as USO Representative
Gary Keroack finds his name on the list for
the fifth annual Bob Coonan Memorial Golf
Tournament April 3 at the NAS Jax Golf
Course.
The USO is a huge supporter of our mili-
tary and had been since its birth. So we
are going to try to raise as much money
as we possibly can," said Rear Adm.
Michael Vitale, commander, Navy Region
Southeast.
Taking first place gross with a score of 50
was Jim McMurry, Joe Simon, Len Loving
and Mike Atter. Taking first place with
a net score of 57 was Terry Miller, Chris
Linton, Fred Major and Chuck Ayars.
Placing second with a net score of 58 was

ON THE HOMEFRONT
Short-timer military wives have nothing to lose
By Sarah Smiley
Special Contributor
Curious thing happens to a
military wife when she knows
her family will relocate soon.
I liken it to the last glass of wine,
the one that makes you go from the
woman who would never sing "Sweet
Home Alabama" in public to the
woman who requests it at a bar and
then shushes everyone so they can
hear her sing it. An impending move
causes military wives to do things
they might regret later, but it doesn't
matter because they will already be
gone by then.
Before we get to that, however,
let's back up a bit and define "soon."
Experienced military wives probably
read the first sentence of this column
and chuckled. "Aren't we all moving
'soon'?" they might have said. "Aren't
we living in a constant state of 'mov-
ing soon'?"
While it's true that most military
wives suffer from a lingering sense
of temporariness no matter how long
(another word that could stand clari-
fication) their loved one's orders may
be, something changes once moving is
imminent.
My mom, a military wife of more
than 30 years, lived in the same
city for the last 25 years of my dad's
career. It was an anomaly understood
only by my dad's various detailers.
Even so, just by the fact that mom
was a "military wife," she lived in
constant fear of the next move, which
actually never came. So it's fair to say
that military wives are always "mov-
ing soon," even when they don't move
for decades or more, but once the ser-
Hev MonevMan!
I need a car. Should I buy
a new car or a used one?
It seems everyone I talk to
has a different opinion.
MoneyMan Sez:
Well, here comes another
"opinion." Americans own
cars. They are viewed as
a necessity, not a luxury.
More than 90 percent of
the people in the rest of
the world cannot afford a
vice member has orders in his hands
and the date and location of the next
move is, in theory, final, that is when
the military wife officially becomes a
"short-timer."
I had forgotten about this phenom-
enon of military life (perhaps because
we've been at our current duty station
for going on five years now), until I
embarrassed myself at my son's tee-
ball game by confronting the opposing
coach for yelling insults at the chil-
dren.
"I'm so embarrassed," I said more
than once the next day.
"Ah, don't worry about it," my friend
Beth, a military wife, said. "You're a
short-timer now, aren't you? Heck, I
only have eight weeks left here; I'm
liable to cause all kinds of trouble
before then."
Short-timer military wives have
been known to do many things in
the weeks leading up to their moves.
Chewing out a tee-ball coach is prob-
ably the least of them. Shore-timers
have dramatically quit jobs, sun-
bathed on the driveway (even if they
shouldn't wear a bikini in public),
yelled at principals, and told their
neighbors what they really think
about the pink flamingoes in their
yard.
When my husband and I were leav-
ing our last duty station, I finally got
up the nerve to confront the teenag-
ers one house away who threw wild
parties when their father was out of
town. Out into the driveway I went in
my flannel pajamas, traipsed across
the wet yard, and told the teens, who
were standing on their father's drive-
way smoking and drinking, "If you
don't all disappear in 15 minutes, I'm
HEY MONEYMAN!
new American car! Most
Americans cannot afford a
new American car either,
but they try. Decide how
much you can afford to pay.
Then check with your credit
union or bank and see what
they will finance.
Generally speaking,
used cars are a better deal
because you avoid the first
year depreciation. But the
cost of the car is a combina-
tion of the purchase price,
the operating expenses
(including insurance), the
maintenance costs and the
price you get when you sell
the car. Above all, do not
buy a more expensive car
than you can afford.
If your credit company
will not finance your "dream
car" and the bank won't
finance it, chances are you
can't afford it yet. If you
calling the cops!"
"Go home, lady," one of them yelled
back and kicked an empty beer can at
me.
Me, a "lady?" It sounded so old,
so matronly. Sure, I was standing
in the grass in pajamas that looked
my grandfather's, but I was only 25
years old at the time. Embarrassed
and more than a little deflated, I went
back inside to my husband who was
asleep and didn't care. I was mad that
I didn't stick up for myself, and even
more mad that I didn't actually call
the cops. But mostly, I was mad that
the teenagers had always made me
feel that way.
About a week later, after my hus-
band had his official orders to change
duty stations, I was pulling weeds in
the yard when the teenagers drove
by in a beat-up truck. They yelled out
their window and called me a name
that can't be printed in the newspa-
per.
But it least it wasn't, "lady."
I stood up, waved my shovel in the
air, and yelled, "A *^%&$, huh? Now
that's more like it!"
The next night the teenagers had a
party. I called the police.
It is both liberating and anxiety-
provoking to leave a place that has
become familiar. Emotions run high,
and sometimes, inhibitions take a
back seat.
Which is to say, if you want to know
what a military wife really thinks,
wait until her husband has orders to
move. Or give her another glass of
wine. Whichever.

must have this particular
car, save for a larger down
payment and only finance
what you can afford. While
we all need transportation,
expensive cars are a luxury,
not a necessity.

From the NAS lax Tax Center
Below are some of the most fre-
quently asked questions being
received at the NAS Jax VITA
Tax Center.
Q: Will the economic stimulus pay-
ment reduce my tax refund next
year like the one earlier in President
Bush's first term did?
A: No, as the tax law passed by
Congress, there will be no reductions
on your 2008 tax refund. There must
be a change in the tax law before that
can happen.
Q: How do I find out if I am eligible
for the economic stimulus payment?
A: The quickest way is to go to
www.irs.gov (economic stimulus pay-
ment calculator). It will take your
through the steps and deterring the
amount of your payment.
Q: If I am filing a tax return this
year just so that I get the economic
stimulus payment because I normally
do not have to file a tax return, just
when do I have to file my return?
ooo
A: The Internal Revenue Service
(IRS) encourages everyone to file by
the normal April 15 deadline. The
sooner the better. But filing by Oct.
15, means that the IRS will have time
to process your information and get
the stimulus payment out to your
before the end of the year.
Q: I know that some people will not
get the stimulus payment. How do I
know if I am one of them?
A: Visit the IRS Web Site at www.
irs.gov and complete the economic
stimulus payment calculator if you
can. You will not get the stimulus
payment in 2008 if any of the follow-
ing apply to you:
You don't file a 2007 tax return.
Your net income tax liability is
zero and your qualifying income is
less than $3,000.
You can be claimed as a depen-
dent on someone else's return.
You do not have a valid Social
Security Number.
You are a nonresident alien.
You file Form 1040NR or
Forml040NR-EZ or Form 1040PR or
Form 1040SS for 2007.
Q: When will I receive my stimulus
payment?
A: The Treasury Department will
make payments starting in early
May. Early filers, especially those
who choose direct deposit, will get
their payments first.
If your return is processed before
April 15, you will most likely get
your payment based on the following
schedule:
If you choose direct deposit, your
payment will arrive on May 2, May 9
or May 16.
If you do not choose direct deposit,
checks will be mailed between mid-
May and mid-July. For this initial
batch of stimulus payments, the pay-
ment date will be based on the last
two digits of your Social Security
number.

Did the unicorn make the cut?
Husband
By Chaplain
(Lt.) Joe Molina
NAS Jax Chapel
The story of Noah and
the Ark has not suf-
fered from loss of
popularity nor fascination
over all these centuries.
It is a classic epic of bib-
lical proportions (no punt
intended).
It is also extremely mar-
ketable. There is a seg-
ment of the toy industry
built around the manufac-
ture and sale of the ark
and its unique inhabitants.
Children's books and schol-
arly commentaries line the
shelves in bookstores and
libraries. In fact, politi-
cal difficulties and chal-
lenging logistical problems
have not stopped expedi-
tions from climbing the icy
peaks of Mt. Ararat (bor-
ders of Turkey and Russian
Republics) in hopes of
finding the petrified fossil
remains of the ark. The
questions, debates and
scholarly research remain,
"Were they looking in the
right place?"
Entire theories endeavor
to explain how Noah man-
aged to deal with the dino-
saurs. Other explanations
tackle how Noah managed
to fit all the vast varieties
of animal species (male and
female) into the ark. To
be sure, the search for the
answer has been known to
CHAPLAIN'S CORNER
create heated
conversations
in some cir-
cles.
I won-
der, really,
whether we
are just burn-
ing valuable
energy on the
wrong ques-
tions regard-
ing Noah and
the Ark. I am
of the opin-
ion that the
biblical account of Noah,
(his family, the ark and the
smelly animals he had to
live with for 150 days), is
much broader and deeper
than those other ques-
tions that many people are
burning energy to resolve.
Yes, there is ample geologi-
cal evidence to support the
ancient flood theory which
was massive and devastat-
ing. How, then, did Noah
manage to fit all existing
species of animals into
a boat 450 feet long by 75
feet wide and 45 feet high
and feed all of them for
150 days? I don't know. I
submit that the account of
Noah and the Ark was not
written to settle scientific
arguments.
Actually, when I read this
marvelous
epic, I'm after
bigger fish.
When I read
this classic
story, I seek
to draw truth
that tran-
scends science
and leads me
into the realm
of God's eter-
nal and con-
sistent princi-
ples. As far as
I'm concerned
debates about geology are
too narrow. Debates about
the logistics and size of the
ark are too myopic. The
heart of the story is much
larger than that.
The heart of this account
is Noah's journey of faith.
To our delight we will dis-
cover that there is much to
learn for our own journey of
faith through Noah's story.
How we mature and develop
our personal faith is vastly
more important than polem-
ics, debates and arguments.
Our faith is what will carry
us through this journey and
beyond. In fact, our faith is
eternal. Long after you and
I are gone, debates will con-
tinue, egos will still clash
but our individual faith is
forever!
What is faith? Here's a
classic definition, "Faith
is being sure of what we
hope for and certain of
what we do not see." (Holy
Bible, Hebrews 11:1). If
you asked Noah to define
faith he might have said,
"faith is readiness to obey."
Obedience is a function of
responsive faith. Therefore
faith and obedience are
action words. In fact obe-
dience demonstrates the
measure of our faith in the
things of God. That, in a
nutshell, is the central
message of Noah's journey.
Indeed, the extent of Noah's
obedience is publicly dis-
played on a mammoth scale.
Love can make us do that.
When one of my children
was 3 to 6 years old he had
a fantastic habit, which has
worn off as he approached
his teen years. Without
warning, even in the mid-
dle of restaurants, he would
yell out, "Dad, I love you."
And, I would yell it right
back, "I love you too!" It
was fun and we were nei-
ther ashamed nor embar-
rassed.
Noah's unashamed dem-
onstration of obedience was
public and unconditional.
God's demonstration of love
for Noah and his family
was a commitment of the
Almighty's unchanging
integrity, protection and
power. That's where I want
to be!

to former base XO
By Kaylee LaRocque
Editor
ore than 400 service members,
civil service civilians, retirees,
their families and runners from
the Jacksonville community turned out
for NAS Jacksonville's third annual Capt.
Charles Cornett 10K Navy Run Saturday.
The event featured a 10-kilometer com-
petitive run, a five-kilometer non-com-
petitive walk and a shoe fair in the Navy
Exchange (NEX) parking lot.
This annual event was originally called
the Navy Run and was renamed after
Cornett, a former NAS Jax executive officer
who founded the run on the base. Cornett
participated in 96 marathons including
the Boston Marathon and Marine Corps
Marathon and was a co-founder of the
Florida Striders in 1978. Cornett passed
away June 25, 2004.
"This is a wonderful event and I know
my father would absolutely adore this. He
would be thrilled to see the band, pace car
and all the runners out here today," said
Sandi Cornett.
One member of the Cornett family who
was especially happy to be at the event
was 16-year-old Mark Cornett, the grand-
son of Charles Cornett.
"I ran this last year and placed first in
my age group so I'm back again. Plus, it's
my birthday and it's a great way to cel-
ebrate it," he said.
Of course, none of it would have been
possible without the support of numerous
volunteers. "We've got a great turnout and
great weather today so it should be a really
good event. I'd really like to thank all the
volunteers who helped put this all togeth-
er. They are the ones who make this all
happen," added NAS Jax Fitness Director
Tim McKinney, who coordinated the event.
The festivities began early in the morn-
ing with a few runners registering late
and others taking extra time to stretch. A
few minutes before the start of the race,
the runners assembled at the starting line
on Child Street between the NEX and the
post office.

Officer Capt. Jack Scorby Jr. welcomed the
runners including members of the Cornett
family of which several participated in the
run/walk. With the firing of the cannons
by the NAS Jax Weapons Department, the
runners were off.
After starting on Child Street, the course
turned right at Akron Street, left on
Allegheny and out to Perimeter Road along
Highway 17. Runners were then taken
along the perimeter of the base before
coming out behind the housing area on
Mustin Road. The course then continued
down Mustin past the golf course and up
to Enterprise Street where the runners
turned left before heading down the stretch
to the finish line.
The first person to cross the finish line in
the 5K was 11-year-old Bryce Waterman
with a time of 26:25. He was followed by
12-year-old Kiel Dominguez coming in at
28:44 and 11-year-old Morgan Meece (plac-
ing first in the female category) with a

time of 29:52. Joseph Miner came in third
in the male category with a time of 30:11
and Lilian Mendoza placed second in the
female category with a time of 30:36 fol-
lowed by LaTonya Capers at 32:14.
"This is pretty cool that I came in first
because I also came in first last year. My
parents are also participating my mom
and dog are walking and my dad is doing
the 10K," stated Waterman, happily.

SPOUSE'S PERSPECTIVE
Financial fitness:
Spending and saving
By Beth Wilson
Military Spouse Support Contributor
several years ago, I read an article
by financial counselor who asked
a class to estimate how much each
individual spent on three categories; cof-
fee/soda, eating out and savings.
They were then asked to keep a log of
expenditures on these
areas for 30 days.
Students were shocked to
see how much they spent
and how inaccurate their
estimates were.
On average, students A.
underestimated their
spending by 32 percent.
Similarly, less than 50
percent of the class con-
tributed to a savings plan
during the same period.
Knowing where your
money goes is the first
step to gaining control of
your finances and mak-
ing it truly work for you.
If you are not sure where
your money goes, log Beth'
every penny you spend
for the next 30 days. You may be surprised
at what you find.
Last week, we discussed your financial
picture; income, bills and expenses. Let's
focus on a spending plan this week. I love
the term 'spending plan' because it puts
me in control of what I spend and insures
obligations are met.
A spending plan will help you know
exactly where your money goes, prepare for
major purchases, provide for unexpected
expenses while avoiding wasting money.
There are many resources to assist you in
developing a spending plan that will meet
your needs and fit your lifestyle. USAA's
educational foundation (www.usaaedfoun-
dation.org) has free information and online
tools to assist you.
Your command has a trained service
member called a command financial spe-
cialist (CFS) that is equipped to help you
build your spending plan. Fleet and Family
Support Center as well as most armed forc-
es member banks provide these services
free to their members.
Two key points in your spending plan are
savings and debt reduction. Savings should
be the first thing you 'pay.' By viewing sav-
ings as a bill you pay yourself you will see
your savings grow enabling you to be pre-
pared for the unexpected as well as afford
that new game system or vehicle while
avoiding interest and the expense of credit.
Make a savings of 10-15 percent of your
pay your goal. If you can-
not save that much now
work up to that amount.
Make p.iini-: off high
L interest accounts your
next priority. Pay as
much as possible on this
_' debt. Making minimum
payments neither saves
you money nor builds
your credit score. If you
have a credit card bal-
ance of $3,000 at 19.8
percent interest and only
make the minimum pay-
ment of $15 it will take
you 39 years to pay off
that balance but at a cost
of $10,000 in interest
/ilson charges.
Finding money to save
and apply to debt can be easier than you
think. Empty your pockets each night into
a piggy bank, in a year you will have recov-
ered over $280. Cut soda consumption
by one can a day and you'll save $26 per
month. Cut out two gourmet coffee drinks
per week and save $590 per year. Pack
lunches, eat out two fewer times per week,
shop at the commissary (a 30 percent sav-
ings overall on your food bill) and use cou-
pons.
For more information on saving
money and reducing debt check out the
Department of Defense approved program
at www.militarysaves.com. Other savings
sites include www.smartaboutmoney.org,
www.moneyinstructor.com, www.stretcher.
com and www.betterbudgeting.com.
Next week we'll talk about investing,
planning for major purchases and under-
standing your credit rating.

Q: My allergies seem to be getting worse with lime. The runny nose. congestion, itchy walery eyes, sneezing
and wheezing are driving me crazy. Medications only help temporarily and make me very drowsy. Allergy shots
were not effective. Are there any new solutions out there lor those ol us that sufler spring Lime allergies?
A: This year, you can look forward to spring and summer without the discomfort of allergies. There is a highly
effective treatment now available that resolves the cause of seasonal allergy symptoms, and best of all it does not
involve the use of shots or needles, drugs, sprays or inhalers.
Not everyone reacts to pollens, grasses, weeds. trees, dust. dust mites or molds. For those wno do suffer
allergy symptoms, their immune system is reacting to a harmless substance. In other words, an allergy is an
error that causes the immune system to respond inappropriately. Rather than treat the symptoms with shots
or medications, Advanced Allergy Therapeutics (AAT) is a non-invasive, all natural treatment that eliminates the
allergy altogether.
AAT is safe and effective lor adults and children and can eliminate virtually any type of allergy including food
allergies, pet allergies, chemical sensitivities or even stimuli such as damp cold, barometric pressure change,
heat or sunlight.

farewell to the squadron during

The event began as former VS-31

through a row of sideboys before
taking their seats.
After the other officials were rec-

invocation was given by Chaplain

Look sharp, be sharp!
Show your Navy pride
By FORCM(SS/AW/SW) Charles Dassance
Force Master Chief, Naval Network Warfare Command
G ood day, shipmates. This week, I'd like to talk -
with you about a topic that many Sailors unfor- .

appearance when they come to work each day. In many ,*.-
ways, your appearance is just as important as the qual-
ity of the work that you do.
What is the first thing that you notice whenever you see
another Sailor walking around? Do you look at her uni- ; "I.B I" '
form to see if it is clean, pressed and has sharp creases? .: .
Do you notice whether or not he has shaved or has a prop-
er haircut? If so, then you are doing your job of watching r H

as he doesn't care too much about how he looks at work
each day, he is probably equally lackadaisical about the
job he does.
This is why it is important for you to take the time every
day before you come to work to properly prepare every
part of your uniform. Whether you are wearing utilities
or working blues or whites, make sure you iron your shirt
and pants or skirt thoroughly and put sharp creases into I
them. Also, you should always keep on hand a clean and
pressed pair of dress blues or whites in case you need to
wear them.
Your shoes should always be freshly polished and, if
you are male, shave every morning unless a waiver is
authorized by the commanding officer. Mustaches are J .

properly wearing military headgear. The bulk of the hair
shall not exceed two inches in length.

These are the basic steps you should follow to present a NUZ UlI

NAVY RUN: Event in
third year as tribute to
former NAS Jax XO
From Page 4
Coming in first again this year in the 10K
was John Metzgar with a time of 34:30. He
was followed by Kevin Sweeny who crossed
at 36:39 and Paul McRae, who finished
with a time of 37:03.
"It was really hot and humid running
today but it was an easy run. I thought I'd
have a little competition today but they
rolled off so I was just trying to stay on pace
and I did ok," said Metzgar.
Kim Pawelek won the women's division
with a time of 39:05. She was followed by
Michelle Krueger at 39:28 and Susan Miller
at 43:04.
"This was really a good run. I've run this
one a couple times and every year it seems

to get a little bigger. In the first three miles,
we had the wind in our faces, but I just
drafted behind someone. It slowed us down
a little but it wasn't as bad as last year.
Last year was really windy. I just kept
thinking about that as I was running. And
then towards the end, it got really hot,"
said Pawelek, who recently qualified for the
Olympic trials.
The event was sponsored by VyStar

TOPCATS: VS-31 decommissioned,
two S-3 squadrons remain here
From Page 1
Topcats who are here today,
you are ushering out this
fine squadron in great fash-
ion. Many of you will go
on to other commands to
support the naval aviation
enterprise and the world's
greatest maritime force.
And, it's something to be
proud of. I know that I'm
proud I was part of it many
years ago," stated Carey. "I
can think of no better trib-
ute for the VS community
than the 'best of the best'
continuing to support naval
aviation."
"Seeing all the former
Topcats here today is
impressive. VS-31 became
the first Atlantic Fleet
VS squadron in 1949, one
of many firsts that this
squadron has realized. This
squadron has supported
many foreign policy deci-
sions and many crises," con-
tinued Carey.
"They supported the Suez
Canal Crisis and they were
the first squadron to deploy
and arrive on station to
support Operation Desert
Shield, literally within days
of the invasion of Kuwait.
And on 9/11, the squadron
simultaneously deployed to
two different aircraft carri-
ers," he said.
"This is kind of a bitter-
sweet moment. Those of
us who are former VS-31
members, there is a part of
us that is still in that air-
plane, here and at NAS
Cecil Field. But it's good to
come back and see all the
young people who man this
squadron; the level of profi-
ciency and professionalism
they have," Carey added.
"There are times that I
wish I was back on the air-
craft carrier with the deck
pitching, getting ready to
man up, smelling the JP5,
getting in the jet and get-
ting ready to catapult. Life
just doesn't get much better
than that," said Carey.
"To the heroes who are
present VS-31 Topcats, you
should be excited for your
future because your future
is limitless. As you move
on to your new commands,
go with the confidence that
you have shown here, but
go with the humbleness
that you will need to move
forward," concluded Carey.
Also giving some remarks
during the ceremony was
Capt. Sterling Gilliam, com-
mander, Carrier Air Wing
Nine.
I am honored and for-
tunate to be associated
with some tremendous S-3
squadrons but none of them
have come close to the sus-
tained operational achieve-
ments of VS-31. When I
recently completed a seven-
and-a-half month deploy-
ment on board USS John
C. Stennis, VS-31 was the
backbone of my air wing
and I could not have accom-
plished our mission without
them. Topcats, this is a fit-
ting conclusion to 60 years
of service, you've done well."
he said shortly before pre-
senting VS-31 Commanding

the stipulation that he join the Navy and become a command-
ing officer someday.
Officer Cmdr. Muhammad
Muzzafar Khan with a
Meritorious Service Medal
for his dedicated service to
the squadron.
Khan then took the podi-
um to give his final remarks
as commanding officer of
the squadron. "When I took
command of this fine squad-
ron, I was on 'cloud nine.'
And that's where I remain
since that day. It's been one
phenomenal experience.
I've been living a dream the
last year," said Khan.
"For a kid growing up in
Pakistan, we heard about
the capabilities of the U.S.
military and we were in
absolute awe. And then,
we would hear about the
U.S. Navy in the Indian
Ocean, and sometimes see
the aircraft carriers con-
ducting flight operations,
and I was so impressed,
he said. "But never in my
wildest dreams would I
imagine that I'd be com-
manding a U.S. Navy
squadron. As an immigrant,
I didn't think that was pos-
shoulders of these giants,
therefore I'd like to dedi-
cate this ceremony to the
talented and motivated
folks of VS-31 both present
and past."
"Topcats, I have enjoyed
watching you succeed and
build skills that will help
you transition to other com-
munities. I thank you for
your leadership and dedica-
tion. It has been an honor
and a privilege to work
with you. Your professional-
ism made my job extremely
easy. Our successes are the
result of not one person but
the entire Topcat team,"
Khan remarked.
"I would also like to dedi-
cate this ceremony to our
families. What we do is not
easy. We often pack up and
go to sea and our families
know they are second to the
job. They are our strength,
heart and soul. They make
a tremendous sacrifice and
we appreciate their love and
support so we can provide
our nation with brave men
and women and preserve
our freedom," said Khan.
The ceremony closed with
reading "The Watch" and
the stand-down of two VS-
31 pilots at the cockpit of
the squadron's last S-3B
Viking aircraft.
VS-31 Sailors, past
and present, have proud-
ly served from the
Jacksonville area since
1973. Previously located at
NAS Quonset Point, R.I.,
the squadron moved to NAS
Cecil Field and eventually
to its current home base of
NAS Jacksonville.
In August 2007, VS-
31 returned from its last
deployment in the Arabian
Gulf on board USS John C.
Stennis (CVN 74) in sup-
port of Operation Iraqi and
Enduring Freedom.
Flying the S-3 "Viking"
multi-mission aircraft,
VS-31 is comprised of 190
squadron members and six
aircraft.
All of their S-3 aircraft
have been reassigned to
other VS squadrons. Two
VS squadrons remain active
at NAS Jacksonville.
sible. But only in this great
Navy can an immigrant
reach as high as the goal he
sets for himself. This is truly
the land of opportunity."
"It is testament to our
diversity and equal oppor-
tunity policies, we are all
about people and reward-
ing hard work. If you look
behind you, you can see the
brave men and women of
VS-31. It's a sad sight to
see only one-third of the
squadron here, but we had
an enormous number of
transfers," Khan continued.
"These men and women
are exceedingly committed
to their duties. While on
deployment for seven and
a half months, I watched
them work 14-plus hours
every day to fulfill their
duties. The commitment
that's made everyday by
these men and women
makes me proud to be an
American and honored to
be a steward of this fine
squadron," Khan said. "I

Operation Iraqi Freedom
in 2003 and who now
works for the Veteran's
Administration and the
Wounded Warrior Project.
"I'm here today to tell you
that the sacrifices you will
be making for the next year
are not in vain. Whatever
your views are about the
war, you're here today and
that makes you heroes. You
are prepared to serve and
sacrifice so others can live.
You will profoundly impact
countless lives, Iraqi and
Americans. I wouldn't be
here today if it weren't
for people like you." said
Pruden.
"As we were driving one
day while patrolling in Iraq,
the whole world suddenly
exploded. When I tried to
use the brakes, I realized
my legs weren't working.
My team got me to the clos-
est medical unit and applied
basic lifesaving techniques.
I was then flown to the
combat support hospital. As
soon as I reached the hospi-
tal, I was rushed into sur-
gery. For the next 48 hours,
they kept me alive and did
two more surgeries to sta-
bilize me. I also received
12 units of blood and from
what I heard, there was not
enough blood, so hospital
staff members donated to
save my life. I am forever
grateful to them for donat-
ing so much of themselves,"
Pruden continued.
"Without the Soldiers at
combat support hospital, I
would not be alive today.
Thanks for all that you
will do. And, to the fami-
lies here today, thank you
so much for your sacrifices
and allowing your loved
ones to do so much good."
Col. Danny Baldwin,
commander of the 345th
Combat Support Hospital
also praised his troops.
"Soldiers of 345th Combat
Support Hospital, you've
gone and done so many big
training events to get your-
selves ready for this mission
that we're about to go on.
To our family members, I
assure you that the Soldiers
of 345th Combat Support
Hospital are trained
and ready to take care of
American Soldiers and save
lives and come back safely
to you," he stated.
Brig. Gen. Margaret
Wilmoth, commanding
general, 332nd Medical
Brigade, also praised the
unit. "It's been a long year
of training. You have not
let anything deter you from
the mission of getting to
this day so you can go and
take care of our wounded
Soldiers," said Wilmoth.
"You would not be here
today without the support
of your families, colleagues
and your employers. The
past year has only been the
beginning for you are about
to fulfill your commitments
to our Army. You are going
to provide high quality
medical and nursing care
to our wounded warriors.
There is no higher quality
in our Army."
She also stressed that the
Soldiers need to write their
mothers and that the fami-
lies should bond together
and join the family support
group.
The unit drills at the
Armed Forces Reserve
Center at NAS Jax and is
comprised of Soldiers from
all over the country. "As a
combat support hospital we
do everything that a civil-
ian hospital does. We have
surgeons, nurses and medi-
cal support staff and do
everything that a civilian
hospital does. A lot of these
Soldiers are volunteers who
are going back for a sec-
ond time. Doctors are only
required to be overseas for
90 days at a time, so many
are choosing to go back for
a second tour," explained
Maj. William Ritter, the
unit's public affairs officer.
"This unit mobilized in
2003 at the beginning of
the war so some of these
soldiers have been there
before."
After the ceremony, the
Soldiers spent time with
their families before flying
out early the next morning.

Special guest visits NAS Jax

Kevin McMahon, creator of the family game That's the Ticket, gives a presentation at the
Youth Activities Center April 3 for NAS Jax families. "I'm here today because it's Month
of the Military Child. We are having this event to help military parents and hold a family
game night. I developed this for my own family years ago and it became a product for
the world about five years ago," said McMahon. "This program helps parents become
focused and committed to the things they really want and they can translate that into
things their kids can win instead of what they have to do. When they complete some-
thing on the game board, they win some tickets. When they don't, they have pay their
parents. When the children win, they earn some reward and can buy it with their tick-
ets." The event which was hosted by the Fleet and Family Support Center and Morale,
Welfare and Recreation Department, consisted of a parent and children's workshop,
pizza dinner and playing the game.
Career Management
Symposium slated
By Lt. Scott Mowery
Navy Personnel Command Communications Office
ACareer Management Symposium (CMS) will be
held at NAS Jacksonville April 16-17 at the VP-30
auditorium to help Sailor learn about career oppor-
tunities. Aviation enlisted detailers will be available
April 16 from 6-9 p.m. Enlisted detailers will be available
April 17 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The CMS team will offer advice on career direction,
development and opportunity. Attendees will have the
opportunity to negotiate for orders, discuss communi-
ty status and ask questions about career management
issues. Detailers from several communities will accompa-
ny the Center for Personal and Professional Development
(CPPD) Team.
The team will give briefs each day designed to provide
information needed to make informed career decisions.
The manpower, personnel, training and education brief
targets leadership, to include the commanding officer,
executive officer, command master chief, department
heads and command career counselors and will be held
April 17 at 8:30 a.m. in the Building 1 conference room.
The chief petty officer (CPO) leadership brief is designed
to educate leaders on pay and compensation, retirement
issues, and promote effective leadership of junior Sailors.
CPO's will learn how to help junior Sailors with career
intentions, development, and management. This brief will
be held April 17 at 8 a.m. in the base theater.
The first line leadership brief will be held for E-5 and E-
6 petty officers. This brief is designed to educate the first
line leaders on pay and compensation, retirement issues,
and promote effective leadership of junior Sailors. This

opment and management. This brief will be held April 17
at 11:30 a.m. in the base theater.
The junior enlisted/junior officer brief is broken into
two parts; one for the junior enlisted, E-4 and below, and
one for junior officers 0-4 and below. During each brief,
Sailors will receive guidance on career management, and
will have an opportunity to assess the value of their skills
and pay as compared to the civilian job market.
The enlisted brief will be held April 17 at 1:30 p.m. in
the base theater and the officer's brief will be held April
17 at 10:30 a.m. in the TVQ conference room.
The selection board brief will be held April 17 at 10 a.m.

regarding advancement and the selection board process,
which provides guidance for individual service record
review and follow-up on discrepancies.
The spouse brief will be held April 17 at 6 p.m. at the
TVQ conference room and covers spouse employment and
a comparison between the Navy and private sector. It
also includes information concerning Navy issues that will
affect them and their Sailor.

From Page 1
Director Tim McKinney.
"It's great because now we
can show the smaller chil-
dren how to have a healthy
lifestyle."
Patrons can also get some
assistance with their work-
outs. "I'm a personal trainer
and am available to develop
individual programs for our
patrons and update them
ooo
as needed to keep workouts
from becoming stagnant,"
said Fitness Instructor/
Trainer Emily Dunlap.
"This really is a great
opportunity for the parent
who stays home with the
smaller children because
they can bring them in
when they work out and
keep them within their
sight. It will help parents
get back into working out
and living a healthy life-
style," she continued,
enthusiastically.
The new center, formal-
ly a teen center, has been
completely refurbished with
new paint, carpet, exercise
equipment and a special
play area for younger chil-
dren.

the new family fitness cen-
ter, call 778-9772.
