By ATAA Adam Thomas
Staff Writer

Master Chief Petty
Officer of the Navy
(MCPON)(SS/SW) Rick
West visited NAS Jacksonville
Feb. 20 to tour facilities,' learn
about base programs and speak
with Sailors.
"I love being out here on the
deckplate and anytime I can, I
will," said West. "I want to see
what Sailors are doing and how
they're doing it. I want to take a
pulse for the day-to-day opera-
tions on the base."
While aboard the station, West
received a brief from Sailors at
NAS Jax Air Operations and
toured Hangar 1000 where he
visited with Sailors from VP-16
and VP-45. He also ate lunch
with a group of hospital corps-
men from Naval Hospital Jax
and NAS Jax Command Master
Chief CMDCM (SW/SS) Jeff
Hudson at the Flight Line Caf6.
While at Hangar 1000, West
answered many' questions from

service members about when.
the new Navy working uniform
(NWU), worn by West during
his visit, could be worn off base.
West replied, "That's up to the
Sailors wearing it. When Sailors
can show their chief petty offi-
cers that the uniform is worn cor-
rectly and when the force mas-
ter chief comes to me and says,
'All of our .Sailors are properly
trained,' then I am more than
willing to make a recommenda-'
tion to the chief of naval oper-
ations (CNO) that we consider


revising.the policy on manner of
wear."
"When civilians see the NWU, I
want them to say, 'that's a Sailor
and he looks sharp,' with no dis-
credit in any way," added West.
"MCPON's visit was very posi-
tive," said A02 Bobby Welch of
VP-45. "He addressed our ques-
tions and concerns about the
NWU and showed us that hge
truly is concerned with the issues
facing the deck plate Sailor."'

T here's nothing like a
belly rub, hugs and
kisses to make your
hospital visit less stressful.
Just ask.Molly!
No, Molly isn't a patient,
she's part of the Naval
Hospital Jacksonville (NH
Jax) staff and she has the
hospital ID to prove it.
Four-year-old Molly and her
18-month-old sidekick Teddy
are Cavalier King Charles
Spaniels owned by Cmdr.
Deborah Roy, assistant direc-
tor of nursing at NH Jax.
Molly and Teddy are the
first dogs in the hospital's
new pet visitation program.
Both Molly and Teddy are
exceptionally well trained,
well behaved and just plain
adorable. Either of them can
take a special place in the
hearts of young and old alike
as they and Roy make their
rounds.
"The dogs provide a posi-
tive diversion from the nor-
mal hospital environment
and help folks feel more at
home," said Roy, who initi-
ated the new program here.
"Many patients and visitors
reminisce about their own
pets and their impact in their
life," she said.

Looking back to 1954...

The post-war economic boom increased traffic volume at NAS Jacksonville. To handle the morning and afternoon "rush
hours" more efficiently, Yorktown Avenue was reconfigured to three lanes in and three lanes out a traffic practice that
remains in effect today.



'You make weird cupcakes9


By Sarah Smiley
Special Contributor


The comment was innocent; the
reaction genuine horror. While
sitting down for a family din-
ner one night, our older boys, Ford, 8,
and Owen, 6, were discussing which
traits our youngest son, Lindell, 2,
received from other members of the
family.
"His eyes are definitely like mine,"
Ford said.
"And he has hair like me," said
Owen.
"He's a night person like Mom."
"And his teeth look like Dad's."
It was fun listening to the boys talk
about the defining characteristics of
our family, the uniqueness that we
share. And Lindell, of course, was
thoroughly enjoying all the atten-
tion. All three of our boys are differ-
ent in ways that we couldn't have
imagined. And yet they share little
glimmers, like sun bouncing off white
stones in gravel, of what makes them
a "Smiley."
Then Owen said, "What about
Lindell's double chin? Who did he get
that from?"
"He definitely got that from dad,"
Ford said. "Or maybe from mom."
Dustin and I looked at each other
in shock. Blood drained from my
face, straight to my double chin.
Apparently it was time to rethink our
diets.
We made a deal to meet our indi-
vidual goal weights by July 1, 2009.
I got busy at the gym, working on my
double chin.
Meanwhile, Ford, who is in the sec-
ond grade, has reached an age where'
he is very aware of what's, cool and
what's not. Some kids probably reach
this stage earlier. Not Ford.

HEY, MONEYCHICI


Hey, MoneyChic!
So this was my year to make some good
moves. I started investing in the Thrift
Savings Plan (TSP). I chose the L2040 Fund.
In the last 12 months it's gone down 33
percent! I would have been better off not
even putting any money in it at all.
I don't see how it can be smart to invest
in a fund that is losing money. I'm trying to
make good choices and think ahead, but this
is frustrating!
MoneyChic says:
Hang in there, don't give up yet.
If you just started buying into the L funds
recently, you are actually buying at just the
right time and getting a good deal.
It's hard to see that when you see recent
reports of returns in the negative double dig-
its, but remember you are investing into a
fund that you don't expect to draw from until
the year 2040.
You have time to capture the long-term
upswing. Remember the old adage, what is
up, must come down. Well the same goes for
the stock market, after many robust years,
it's in a down cycle.
The key word is cycle, which means it's not
forever and it will come back for periods of
high returns as well. You are actually buy-
ing at a great time, while prices are low and
a bargain.
In the long term, you'll be pleased with
your choice to invest in the TSP. Keep with
it!


Last year, when Ford ran out of
books to read (he had already fin-
ished Tuck Everlasting, Old Yeller,
and Treasure Island) he decided to
read the phone book . for fun. He
had never much cared about what's
cool. Until this year.
Which, of course, meant that watch-
ing the Super Bowl was very impor-
tant. When you're in second grade
and concerned with being cool, you
don't want to go to school on Monday
morning after the Super Bowl without
knowing who won and how.
While Dustin and the boys watched
the Super Bowl that Sunday, I baked
snacks in the kitchen. Only, I didn't
want to go overboard because of the
whole diet-thing Dustin and I had
started. Plus, we are trying to get our
kids to eat better, too. They don't need
to diet, but a few vegetables here and
there would be nice.
So I used one of those sneaky cook-
books the kind that show you how
to put spinach in your kid's waffles
and such and told my family that I
was making Super Bowl cupcakes.
While the "cupcakes" stuffed with
pumpkin, squash, flax seed, whole
wheat and applesauce baked, I served
the boys typical football fare: nachos
and dip. They eagerly anticipated the
cupcakes.
"Will they have frosting?" Owen
asked. .
"Of course," I said, failing to men-
tion that the "frosting" would be made
from lemon extract and low-fat cream
cheese.
Ten minutes after the winning goal,
I called my family to the table for


dessert. The boys ran to the kitchen.
Ford yelled, "Cupcakes!"
Owen yelled, "Woo Hoo!" Lindell
just yelled generally, although he
wasn't sure why. When everyone was
at the table, I put the pan of "cup-
cakes" in front of them. At first, no
one spoke.
"Uh, what are these, mom?" Ford
finally said.
"Cupcakes," I said.
Owen sniffed his like a rabbit. Ford
poked at it with a fork. Dustin sliced
his open and the two halves fell apart
from each other and onto the table
like rocks. No one except Lindell,
who ate his "cupcake" and everyone
else's, too was impressed.
"I love you, mom," Ford said. "But
you make weird cupcakes."
A few days later, Ford brought
home a note from his teacher request-
ing cookies for the class Valentine's
Day party.
It would be the perfect chance to
try out that recipe for chocolate chip
cookies made with spinach. Or maybe
the oatmeal ones with dates. My
mind raced with the possibilities. The
thought of melted chocolate chips in a
cookie I could feel good about almost
made me forget my double chin.
And then Ford said, "Mom, when
you make cookies for the class, can
you make them normal, not like those
cupcakes?"
My cookies could make or break my
son's cool quotient. Not that it should
matter. But I'd forgo the spinach and
dates anyway. I just can't promise
that I won't sneak in some applesauce
... or maybe whole wheat.

New fire chief, big plans


By MCSA Cristina Gabaldon
Staff Writer
NAS Jacksonville and
NS Mayport Fire
Departments' new chief,
Don Martin, has a big job on his
hands with a lot of plans for the
future.
Martin, a native of Panama
City, Fla. joined the Navy in 1974
as a radioman. Martin complet-
ed seven years of service with
tours in Virginia, California and
Florida ending his service at
NS Mayport.
With plans of becoming an elec-
tronics technician, acquaintances
piqued Martin's interest in fire-
fighting. Martin joined the fire
department at NS Mayport in
1981 and started his career from
the bottom.
"Mayport provided me with my
training, education and experi-
ence. I started off as a GS-3
believe it or not," said Martin.
As a firefighter, Martin
earned his credentials in fire
science by taking classes at
accredited schools like' St.
Augustine Technical Center,
Florida Community College at


Jacksonville and Alabama Fire
College. In 1987, Martin's career
began to take off with promotions.
"In Mayport, the opportunities
for advancement were available
if I applied myself and that's
what I did. Then I made captain,"
he stated.
Martin continued to advance,
from station captain all the way
up to deputy chief.
"The consolidation of NS
Mayport and NAS Jacksonville
took place last year, so we merged
into one department," said
Martin.'
"At the time, I was deputy fire
chief in Mayport working under
Randy Hall who was the fire chief
here in Jacksonville. So when
he retired,. I assumed his posi-,
tion as Fire Chief for both NAS
Jacksonville and NS Mayport."
Martin is currently recruiting a
new deputy fire chief to fill his old
spot at NS Mayport.
"One of my biggest challeng-
es now is managing my time,"
explained Martin. "With a new
deputy fire chief, it will lighten
my load and give me the ability to
manage both stations for improve-


ment."
There are changes happening
right now at NAS Jacksonville,
and Martin said he plans to keep
up with the future as the new fire
chief.
"With the new aircraft coming
to NAS Jax and the new hangar
being built, that means growth for
the department as far as training,
personnel and equipment goes.
The same thing goes with the new
carrier coming to Mayport. There
are a lot areas that we need to
improve in, and I'm looking for-
ward to the future so we can grow
as things change," he continued.
"With consolidation of both fire
departments, our management
team is working hard to bring
these departments together as
one, but we still have hard work
ahead of us. I have confidence -in
our staff that we can do it."
To help as far as training goes,
the Seabees are currently building
a new fire training facility at NAS
Jax. This will be the first facility
of its kind in the region, which
includes NAS Jax, NS Mayport,
and NSB Kings Bay, Ga.
"We definitely plan to have a

ribbon cutting ceremony for the
opening," said Martin.
"This is a big. deal because
we've been doing our training
on a mobile aircraft firefighting
trainer device which is used for
all of our live fire training.
"I'm also working with our NAS
Jax Public Works Department to
design a new combined fire sta-
tion for NAS Jax," said Martin.
"It will house all of our crash,
structural, hazmat and EMS
responses which will streamline


our operation to provide optimal
response and organization."
What else does Martin have
to offer to the NAS Jacksonville
community?
"My goal is to provide advanced
life support services to Sailors
and civilians on board NAS Jax,
t6 utilize our expertise and pro-
-vide the highest standard of fire
prevention for our military per-
sonnel and their families, as well
as retirees and civilians," he con-
cluded.

NHJ PET: Visiting pets help relieve stress


Photos by ATAA Adam Thomas
During his visit with VP-16 Sailors, Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy (MCPON) (SS/SW)
Rick West accepts a command ball cap from CMDCM(AW/SW) Adrian Andrews, VP-16 com-
mand master chief, during his visit to NAS Jacksonville Feb. 20. West toured several facilities
on the base to meet with Sailors and find out about their concerns regarding Navy issues.


MCPON: Visits NAS Jax

From Page 1

West also fielded questions from Sailors


about his plans for force
shaping. "I want to cre-
ate opportunities in the
Navy. It breaks my heart
to see the great, hard-
charging, first class petty
officers who can't promote
in rank because we're too
overmanned in the E-7 to
E-9 ranks. I want a Navy
where we have the oppor-
tunity to promote, but
I also want Sailors who
want to be where they're
at and want to work hard
while they're there,"
explained West.
"It won't be an over-
night change," contin-
ued West. "It takes some
time once force shaping
at the senior enlisted
level begins. There are
too many hard chargers
not getting promoted,
from the senior enlisted
level down to the young-
est petty officers, and I

expect opportunities for them to open up as
the senior ranks thin from the top down."
"The MCPON's visit was extremely posi-
tive," said Hudson. "A lot of our Sailors
needed to hear from and shake hands with
the MCPON. I don't think
there's anyone unim-
pressed with the fact that
he's a deck plate leader.
He remembers where he
came from and he's going
to do a great job of rep-
resenting the enlisted
Sailors to the CNO."
"This is a great base and
the Sailors seem well-pre-
pared .to face the challeng-
es ahead.
Sailors of today's Navy
are extremely hardwork-
being and do a lot of good
things that need to be cap-
tured," expressed West.
"Many times, people tend
to focus on the negatives
i wbut there are so many
sit with Sailors good things going on. Our

sed on the new Navy has never been chal-
iiform worn by lenged as much as it is
at the uniform today, but I will tell you
urable and is a that never before have our
Sailors can be Sailors performed as well
as they are right now."


From Page 1

"The visits provide stress
relief and a positive inter-
action that does not involve
the medical illness they are
being treated for."
Recognizing that some
people are not dog people
and others have allergies,
Roy said the pets are never
introduced to patients, visi-
tors or staff without their
permission or if it would
medically inappropriate.
The hospital is seeking
volunteers to join the pro-
gram. All types of breeds
and mutts are welcome.
Roy said dogs must be
healthy, at least one year of
age, be on year-round flea/
tick and heartworm prophy-
laxis, and be evaluated by
the NAS Jacksonville vet-
erinarian annually.
.Dogs must attain their
Canine Good Citizen certifi-
cation -a simple obedience
test available through the
American Kennel Club. Go
to AKC.org for information.
After dogs and their
owners are approved'for
the program, they must
attend the American Red
Cross (ARC) orientation
program at NH Jax and
obtain access to the base.
For information on the NH
Jax ARC program call 542-
7525.
After all criteria are met,
the dog handlers are asked
to volunteer for at least one
hour per month. Roy said
that is the ideal amount of
time for the dog's rounds.
"It takes about one hour to
complete a set of rounds
and dogs get tired around
that time."

used for years throughout
the medical field," Roy said.
"Some of the places
we see pet therapy being
used are in nursing homes
(as visitors or as resident
pets), physical rehabilita-
tion programs, and hospi-
tal-based visitation. Dogs
have been 'used as assis-
tance animals for years
and serve as companions as
well as helpers for every-
day activities. Seeing-eye
dogs help the blind navi-
gate through society. There
are even dogs that can
sense seizures in their own-
ers before- the owners feel
the warning signs. Dogs
are helping young readers
feel more comfortable with
their reading and speak-
ing skills. There are ser-
vice dogs trained to assist
people through traumatic
events. For instance, dogs
were used to assist aid and
rescue workers during the
9/11 tragedy in New York
City. Dogs help returning
soldiers through the Paws
for Purple Hearts program,


where service members
with Post Traumatic Shock-
Syndrome (PTSD) train ser-
vice dogs."
The pet visitation pro-
gram at NH Jax had'
already garnered positive"
reactions from patients;-
visitors and staff. "What a
neat idea," and "It bright-
ened my day," were some of
the comments. II
Staff has also benefited
from departmental visits.'
"One quick stop to pet the
dogs provides a brisk relief
from the challenges of the
day and helps to refuel
them," Roy said, noting that
she's received numerous
requests from departments
for therapy visits.
Studies on the medil
cal benefits of interactions
.with pets, while not offer-
ing definitive evidence, are
largely positive. According
to the CDC, pets cain
decrease your blood pres-
sure, cholesterol and tri-
glyceride levels, and feel-
ings of loneliness. Pets can
increase your opportunities
for exercise and outdoor
activities and opportunitiO
for socialization. .
Of course, most pet owi-
-ers would say that their
pet's biggest benefit is their
capacity for uncondition-
al love. Molly and Teddy
shared plenty of that with
lots of people.
To enroll your dog in the
NH Jax Pet Visitation pro-
gram contact Roy at 542-

NECE TEST: Getting it right to keep mosquitoes down


From Page 1


"In order to obtain droplet size,
the spray or fog produced by each
machine is passed through a spe-
Scial laser droplet analysis system
w: here the actual droplet micron
size is determined," said USDA
,Agricultural Engineer Clint
'Hoffmann. "This information is
then fed directly to our computer
and printed out."
,Determining the size of the pes-
ticide droplet is important because
:it is a major factor in how the
-repellant application will disperse.
"Some of the machines produce
small droplets that will remain in
,the air longer and thus stick to and
-kill mosquitoes. Other machines
reproduce larger droplets that quick-
*ly fall to the ground and adhere to
plant leaves so these machines are
better used for barrier treatments

SPOUSE'S PERSPECTIVE


Uncommon support

for military spouses


By Beth Wilson
Special Contributor
If you are a regular
reader of-my column
you know I am passion-
ate about finding informa-
tion, resources, inspiration
and tips to help us as mili-
tary spouses to im-prove
our quality of life. This
week, however, I am veer-
ing from my normal for an
opinion piece;- an opinion
piece for military spouses.
Throughout our nation's
history the wife of the pres-
ident has effectively used
her position as First Lady
to champion causes, bring-
ing attention to and effect-
ing change for their chosen
interest.
Michelle Obama, in her
letter to America's families
(http://tinyurl.com/b49waz),
pledged to be an advocate
for families with special
emphasis on military fami-
lies.
l Politics aside, this is an
opportunity for military
spouses to have a voice, an
advocate, not previously
enjoyed. But what do we,
as military spouses, want?
What do we need? What
are the things Mrs. Obama
could champion on behalf of
military spouses?
I'm sure each of us could
draft our own wish list.
But let us maximize this
opportunity to effect posi-
tive change for not only
ourselves but for military
spouses and families of
future generations.
I recently spoke with
fgroupsof military spouses,
asking what they would like
to see Mrs. Obama to do on
behalf of military spouses..
Below is a compilation of
their thoughts.
SCareer development
Educational Assistance
for spouses
SProfe s s i o n al
SCredentialing Assistance
Educational assistance
for mobile military children
Child Care
Increased of support for
military families and their
service member.
Each of these items
requires expounding, but
one thing is clear. We have
an opportunity to commu-
nicate our needs and expe-
rience with a First Lady
who has pledged, "we have
an advocate in the White
House."
I am not a "call to action"
type of person. I'm not a
petition-signing woman.
But I recognize we have a
unique opportunity to effect
change, to have a voice.
So, let us not be lax in this
opportunity to be heard.
What do you want Mrs.
Obama to know about you,

S-3 Viking simulator still teaching
By ATAA Adam Thomas
Staff Writer


Following the Jan. 30 disestablishment of Sea
Control Wing, U.S. Atlantic Fleet, the S-3 Viking
Weapons Systems Trainer (WST) continues to
train pilots and aircrew from Air Test and Evaluation
Squadron (VX) 30 stationed at Naval Air Weapons
Station, Point Mugu, Calif.
Up to four S-3 Viking aircraft formerly assigned to VS-
22 are being transferred to the VX-30 "Bloodhounds."
Chief Test Pilot Cmdr. John Rousseau, along with about
a dozen fellow VX-30 pilots and aircrew, trained for weeks
in the S-3 simulator at Sea Control Weapons School on
board NAS Jax.
Comprised of both a flight and tactical section, the flight
portion of the WST is designed to replicate the S-3 Viking
flight station and provide training for the pilot and co-
pilot. When integrated with the tactical section, the simu-
lator is capable of training a crew of four.
Pilots like the WST for its fully functional and maneu-
verable cockpit that simulates a wide variety of weather
conditions and tactical situations. VX-30 is using the
simulator to safely train flight crews for its mission of
test range clearing and surveillance. The S-3's long-range
capabilities and APS-137 ISAR radar system make it an
ideal aircraft to quickly locate and identify surface con-
tacts within the Pacific test range.
"Our training here at the Sea Control Weapons School
is one of the best programs I've been through. The instruc-
tors are very knowledgeable and their many years of expe-
rience with the S-3B platform really helps us get up to
speed," stated VX-30 pilot Lt. Elliott Porter Jr.
Cmdr. Robin Higgs, officer in charge of Sea Control
Weapons School, said one of the two S-3 simulators was
disassembled in 2008 and sent to the Naval Air Museum
in Pensacola, Fla. When VX-30 completes its initial WST
flight crew training at NAS Jax, the remaining simulator
will be disassembled and moved to Naval Air Weapons
Station, Point Mugu, Calif., where it will continue to pro-
vide safe, cost-effective training.

Recycling electronic

By Jane Beason

The NAS Jax Environmental Department is finding
greater quantities of electronic equipment discarded
in dumpsters and at the station metal and paper
recycling center on Birmingham Avenue. Electronics con-
tain heavy metals such as lead, chromium and cadmium
that are harmful to our environment when sent to a land-
fill.
To properly dis-

The station's first shipment in September 2008 filled a
semi-tractor trailer with 20 pallets weighing a total of about
16,000 pounds.
Recycled items include cell phones, document shredders,
circuit boards, microwave ovens, computers, printers and
monitors. The staff determined a cost savings, based on
pounds, to be about $30,000 per truckload.
The Feb. 12 load filled 19 pallets. Departments and tenant
commands have been generous in providing pallets for stag-
ing, which keeps operating costs down.

Once an area is chosen, a

approval. Upon approval, many
preparations must be taken before
the burn can take place.

cases or plowed lines) that pre-

The fire is first lit down wind

This also keeps the fire from mov-

Specially trained crews with

Service and firefighters from NAS
Jacksonville monitor the fire
while it burns to ensure that it
doesn't jump the fire breaks. Once

The periodic controlled burn of
an area is necessary and extreme-
ly beneficial to the local ecosys-
tem. The burned-out forest floor is
rich with nutrients for the trees.
It also exposes many insects to
the surface, which attracts birds
to the area along with other larg-
er animals in the food chain. And
.the pine forest that surrounds
OLF Whitehouse will continue
to flourish due to the carefully
planned burn.

Red Dress Day at hospital


By Marsha Childs
NH Jax Marketing Coordinator
Naval Hospital Jacksonville
(NH Jax) celebrated Red
Dress Day Feb. 6 with
a health fair to raise awareness
about heart disease and its risks
to American women. Staff and
patients wore red apparel to show
their concern.
February is American Heart
Month and a natural fit with
Valentine's Day. But the heart is
much more than a symbol. It is
-also the vital organ that many of
us tend to take for granted until
it stops working properly.
NH Jax Wellness Center
Department Head Lt. Cmdr.
Stacey Dawson, organized the
event and believes "you are what
,you eat." She said, "Sixty-five per-
cent of Americans over age 20 are
.obese. That's a pretty scary statis-
tic."
Dawson explained that
'Americans are getting bigger from
a combination of factors -inactive
lifestyles, eating bigger portions,


and eating more processed foods
with fewer nutrients.
Eating well-balanced meals
and reducing or avoiding certain
foods can lower your risk for heart
disease. A serving of lean meat
should be no larger than the size
of your computer's mouse. At din-
nertime, fill your plate with twice
as many fruits and vegetables as
other foods and choose fat-free
dairy products whenever possible.
Naval Hospital Jacksonville
Public Health Director Cmdr.
Joseph McQuade warns
about the two major risks associ-
ated with heart disease. "Cigarette
smoke contains carbon monox-
ide, a toxic gas that decreases the
blood's ability to carry oxygen.
Long-term exposure at lower lev-
els can lead to heart disease and
brain damage," he said. ,
Smoking also prompts the liver
to increase the production of low
density lipoproteins (LDL) that is
rich in cholesterol. Unfortunately,
it forms plaque and clogs the
arteries, resulting in cardiovascu-


lar disease.
McQuade also. warned about a
new fad many young adults are
trying. "Many smokers believe
that smoking flavored tobac-
co through a hookah water pipe
removes the nicotine, but this sim-
ple isn't the case. They are subject
to all the dangers a regular smok-
er faces," he said..
Another factor that contributes
to heart disease is physical inactiv-
ity. Most Americans are not physi-
cally active enough to gain any
health benefits. Activities such as
swimming, cycling, jogging, ski-
ing, dancing and walking can all
help you heart.
The American Heart Association
suggests healthy adults ages 18
to 65 should be getting at least
30 minutes of moderately intense
activity five days each week or
vigorous aerobic activity for a min-
imum of 20 minutes three days
weekly.
Be sure to check with your doc-
tor, before starting any exercise
program, especially if you have

long-term medical conditions that away from the building and walk-

Getting started is the hardest Include play and recreation in
part, but fitting physical activities your life go dancing, fly a kit,
into your daily life 'is easier than toss a Frisbee, play tennis, bad-
you think. Start with short walks minton, football or anything. Just
and work up to 30 minutes. Keep keep moving and you can live a
fit at the office by parking farther healthier, more enjoyable life.

Prostate cancer and


African-Americans

From the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer
deaths among men in the United States.
While it isn't known why African-American men
have higher rates of getting and dying from prostate
cancer, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC) believes that what you know can help you. African-
American men should know the facts about prostate can-
cer.
Some medical experts believe all men should be offered
regular screening tests for prostate cancer. Other medical
experts do not.
Given the uncertainty about the benefit of screening,
CDC supports informed decision making about prostrate
screening. When you understand the risks of prostate can-
cer and the risks, benefits, and alternatives to screening,
yoqu can make a decision consistent with your preferences
and values.
-Is prostate cancer screening right for you? The decision
is yours.
To help African-American men understand both sides
of the' issue, CDC has developed the Decision Guide for
African-Americans, available at: www.cdc.gov/cancer/
prostate/publications/aadecisionguide.

'Pro's Nest' Sailors


support NJROTC

By Lt.j.g. Glenn Greenleaf
VP-30 Public Affairs

Sailors from VP-30 volunteered at Allen D. Nease
High School Navy Junior Reserve Officer Training
Corps (NJROTC) Area 12 Drill Meet where more
than 600 cadets gathered from 16 schools in north
Florida and Georgia to compete in a variety of events
Jan. 17.
The Pro's Nest volunteers were on'site at 5:30 a.m. for
briefings and preparations until the closing ceremonies
at 4 p.m. VP-30 Sailois proctored an hour-long aca-
demic exam covering science, history and current military
events.
In addition, they provided professional mentorship and
shared insight regarding the cadets' future naval service.
"I'm really looking forward to joining the Navy after
graduating," an Orange Park High School cadet said. "I'm
interested in the college opportunities that the Navy can
offer me."
The event coordinator, retired Master Chief AECM(AW)
John Duffy said, "This drill meet was a huge success."
More than 100 Sailors and Marines volunteered to
make this event possible for the local Jacksonville JROTC
region. "It would be impossible to run a successful drill
meet without the continued support of our active duty
Sailors and Marines," Duffy added. "They can always be
counted on to give freely of their off-duty time."

ASK THE TAXMAN

By Bob Johnson
Special Contributor

t was another very busy week at the NAS
Jacksonville VITA Tax Center in Building 13. Here
are some of the most common errors we encounter
with our clientele.
Believe it or not, we frequently receive the spouse's
name, social security number or date of birth incorrectly.
Most are related to the spouse's name because she updat-
ed her ID card at PSD but not with the Social Security
Administration.
We process a number of returns where our taxpayer
and someone else both claim the same dependent. When
the return is rejected by IRS, you may ask what do we do
with the tax return. Well, not all is lost, We work with you
to resolve the problem by correcting the information. If
someone else claimed your child on their return in error,
the IRS will then resolve the problem by making a deter-
mination of who is allowed to claim the child.
If you purchased a home as a First Time Home Buyer,
between April 8, 2008 and before July 1, 2009, you can
claim a credit up to $7,500 or 10 percent of the purchase
value. It. has an income limit that must be considered.
When can you claim the credit if you purchased the home
in 2009? Answer: You can elect to claim the credit on your
2008 or 2009 tax return for homes purchased between
12/31/08 and 7/1/09. The amount then must be paid back
over the next 15 years. It is like a no-interest loan from
the government.
Remember, if the home is purchased out of the allowable
time frame, there is no credit. This is a refundable credit.
It may be applied to taxes owed or receive a full refund of
the amount. The credit is limited by your income.
What is your
chance of being
audited? This
is an often-
asked ques-
tion and you
can bet every --
return under-40 -? I- --
goes some type -
of audit. There .70 :
is a match-up Q 7
of documents
and if the cor-
rect amount
isn't reported,
the result is a letter CP 2000 requesting you to explain the
difference in your return and the payers information. Not
only do you have to report the correct amount, but if must
be reported on the correct line on your tax return.
When you receive a document, such as W2, it must be
reported on the line as wages on your tax return. The
computer does a match up with the W2 documents and
your wage line on your return. If they don't match, it could
result in a closer look at the return by audit.
Another common error that you may see is a .credit
union reporting interest as dividends. The information
must be shown as interest or it could result in a closer
review of the return.
We also double check for errors in listing information
from Form 1099Misc. Several types of income are listed
on the form. If you have rent, it must be associated with 2
the Form Schedule E (Rental Income). If block 3 contains
an amount, it must be associated with Form 1040 Line 21
(Other Income). If you have information in block 7 (Other
Income), this is where your self-employment is listed and
that must be related to another form Schedule C/EZ or C
for your business. The net amount of income or loss should
be listed on Form 1040 Line 12.
Remember, if you receive a document concerning income
that is incorrect, you must obtaiT correction before you
file your return. Don't wait until your appointment at
the VITA Tax Center to check basic information such as
names, DOBs and social security numbers.
Do you.have a question for the Taxman? Email bobby.
w.johnson2@navy.mil. The answer to your question will
be published by the Taxman in the next issue of Jax Air
News.
The NAS Jacksonville VITA Tax Center is free to active
duty military, dependents, retirees and any other person-
nel with valid military ID cards.
It is open Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 8 a.m.
to 4 p.m. and Tuesday and Thursday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.,
and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Call 542-8039 to make
