Naval Station Mayport
Emergency Management,
in conjunction with the
Jacksonville National
Weather Center (NWC), is
offering a Seismic Events:
Earthquake/Tsunami and
Storm Spotter Basic class-
es on Aug. 28 at the ATG
auditorium, beside Surfside
Fitness Center. The classes
are available to all hands,
including family members.
The Seismic Events class
will be held at 9 a.m., fol-
lowed by the Storm Spotter
Basic Class #1 at 10:30 a.m.
and the Storm Spotter Basic
Class #2 at 1 p.m.
Installation Emergency
Management Officer Steve
Millican said NS Mayport
is on the track to being the
first military installation to
be certified as "Tsunami
Ready" by the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric's
Administration.
One of the ways to do that
is to have command decision
making leadership attend the
hour-long Seismic Events
class. It is not unheard of
for NS Mayport to suffer the
effects of a tsunami, he said.
In 1896, Northeast Florida
and Mayport was directly hit
by a tsunami from an earth-
quake at the Charleston/
Summerville fault. In 1992,
Daytona Beach was hit by a
18-foot-high, 250-feet-wide
and 20-mile-long rogue
wave that caused more than
75 injuries and damaged
hundreds of vehicles, he
said.
During the Storm Spotter
classes, NWS meterolo-
gists will provide training
on how to safely observe
severe storms, how to iden-
tify important features and
how to make accurate timely
reports. The hour-long class
will include training mate-
rial. All participants 18 years
and over will receive a certi-
fication card.
Registration for the classes
is not required. Just show up
on the day of the event.

Cmdr. Michael Patterson
relieved Cmdr. Gary Mayes as
commanding officer of HLS-44

2 THE MIRROR, NS MAYPORT, Thursday, August 23, 2007


Welcome to Cmdr. Mike
Watson, the new XO for
Mayport. He will be taking over
for Capt. Bowman as the XO of
the base this September. If you
see him, (and he will be making
his rounds introducing himself
throughout the base) don't hesi-
tate to introduce yourself and
welcome him to Mayport.
Congratulations to Fleet and
Family Services for passing
their Accreditation Inspection.
All 29 programs were found
to be in compliance. They
received high marks for their
support of the needs of the
single and married war fight-
ers. This inspection is every
three years and is similar in a
lot of ways to a PEB or AMMT
teams coming down and open-
ing every file cabinet, program
folder and interviewing each
FFSC employee. Hector "The
Director" Sepulveda and Janis
Rand leads an inspired and
motivated team of counselors
and program managers. Stop in
to FFSC and see what they can


Capt. Charles King
do for you and your family.
As many of you know,
Finegan Elementary School is
right outside the gates to Hanna
Park. Many of you use this
gate to enter and leave base.
Please remember to slow down
and watch out for children at
Finegan during your transit in
the mornings and afternoons.
School starts soon all over


Captain'

Jacksonville. Be watchful for
kids as they make their way to
and from school. Keep in mind
they often dart out and cross
streets without really checking
left and right.
There are new signs at the
crosswalk on Massey Avenue at
SERMC. New solar panels have
been installed along with flash-
ing lights to encourage drivers
to slow down for people in the
crosswalk. Please remember
pedestrians have the right-of-
way at Mayport, so slow down
at the crosswalks and stay off
those cell phones.
Base Security has recognized
a rising trend with Mayport
drivers. Many have been caught
without driver's licenses or
proof of insurance and registra-
tion. Make sure you carry all
pertinent information on base
and off. Driving on base is the
same as driving out in town.
You have to have legal proof of
your ability to drive, as well as
insurance and current registra-
tion. If someone is stopped on


s Column


base with a suspended/expired
driver's license, they will be
issued a traffic ticket and will go
before the magistrate on base.
During that time, their base
driving privileges will be sus-
pended indefinitely. The mag-
istrate will review the case, and
a violator's driving privileges
could be suspended for up two
years. This applies to everyone
on base. We typically do not call
JSO for these, however, if there
is a WARRANT for arrest out
for someone, we WILL make
the call. Often, these offend-
ers will spend a night or a few
nights in civilian jail. We can
still consider suspending base
driving privileges. BOTTOM
LINE: We have had too many
incidents lately. Get the word
out and make sure people are
taking care of their personal
driving business. For example,
if they do not pay their tickets,
their license may be suspended
without them even knowing.
That's not a valid excuse.
So far this hurricane season


has been quiet, but with the rise
of tropical storms in the Gulf
and Atlantic everyone should be
preparing for the worst. Make
sure you know your evacuation
routes, have plenty of canned
goods and water, batteries, can-
dles, matches, and all impor-
tant paperwork in a watertight
container. All service members
should update their recall num-
bers at their commands. No
matter what, it is always better
to be ready for the worst case
scenario than caught unpre-
pared.
MWR has revamped the
sand volleyball courts behind
Beachside Community Center.
New sand, nets and boundary
lines provide better playing for
the 4-on-4 volleyball Captain's
Cup league. If you're interested
in playing with the league on
Tuesday at 11:30 a.m., call Rita
at the gym at 270-5451. Check

Mayport is also hosting an All
Navy men's Basketball Mini
Camp on Sept. 14 from 4-6 p.m.
and Sept. 15 from 10 a.m.-noon.

As always there are many
ways to become involved in
base activities.
From sports to volunteering,
there's much to choose from.
Check out The Mirror for infor-
mation on base activities and
sporting events, as well as vol-
unteer opportunities.
Thanks again to everyone
for all the hard work you put in
everyday to make Mayport the
finest military installation in the
U.S. We appreciate everything
you do, and don't think your
work goes unnoticed or unap-
preciated. Keeping this base
a safe, clean and functional is
my number one priority. I need
everyone's help in making that
a reality. Keep those sugges-
tions coming to charles.p.king@

Tom Howard
Commander, U.S. Pacific Fleet
I am a United States Sailor.
I will support and defend
the Constitution of the
United States of America
and I will obey the orders of
those appointed over me.
I represent the fighting spirit
of the Navy and those who
have gone before me to
defend freedom and democ-
racy around the world.
I proudly serve my country 's
Navy combat team with Honor,
Courage and Commitment.
I am committed to excellence
and the fair treatment of all.
Aloha, shipmates! As you
may imagine by now, we're
going to talk about the Sailor's
Creed this week, continuing a
series of articles on pride and
professionalism in our Navy
today. Before we jump into the


article, however, please take a
moment and reread the Sailor's
Creed available above. This
time, really pay attention to the
words and the meaning behind
this passage.
This Sailor's Creed is not
just a bunch of words thrown
together that your chain of com-
mand requires you to recite
at quarters, selection boards,
awards quarters, or all-hands
calls (although all of the above
should be done). These words
symbolize the Sailors of our
past, the Sailors of today, and
the Sailors who will lead our
Navy into the future. These
words should symbolize your
commitment to the Navy and
who you are as a Sailor.
In 1993, Chief of Naval
Operations Adm. Frank Kelso

)e Campa


first became our MCPON, he
spoke of what it meant for him
to be a Sailor. More specifical-
ly, he told a sea story that took
him back to the time when he
was a young seaman aboard
the dock-landing ship Ogden.
While on a port visit to Hawaii,
his chief took his division to
visit the USS Arizona Memorial
in Pearl Harbor. The trip to the
historic site was not just a les-
son in naval history, but instead
Seaman Campa's chief told
his division about the 1eni 1icc
and sacrifice that those Sailors
made that day. On that day,
the MCPON said he gained the
understanding of what it meant
to be a U.S. Sailor.
Each day I'm able to look out
the window in my office, I stare
over at the USS Arizona memo-
rial and USS Missouri memori-
als and think back to the sacri-
fices our Navy family has made


over the years. I think of the
Sailors who gave their lives in
defense of our freedoms, both
then and now. They may not
have had a Sailor's Creed then,
but by god, because of their
blood, sweat and tears, we are
able to have one now. And, if
each of us --you and I is able
and committed to the nation
and our future, we'll have the
Sailor's Creed for our children's
children and those who relieve
us as we "go ashore" when the
time comes. This creed is for
them; this creed is for us.
Until next time, shipmates,
sail safe and sail together! I
urge you to never stop believing
in what it is we stand for.
Remember, if you have any
questions or comments regard-
ing my messages to you, drop

By Cmdr.
Jon C. Fredrickson
Spiritual Fitness Division SE (CREDO)
It has been said that good
people are good because they've
come to wisdom through fail-
ure. Many of us grew up with
rules to do it faster, better or do
more. Some of us had families
that expected great success, and
only success from us. Some of
us did very well in that envi-
ronment, others of us withered
because "normal" was simply
not good enough. It is impor-
tant to be celebrated by those
we expect should love us simply
because we are and not because
of what we can become. For
those of us who grew up where
love was not unconditional and
failure was considered disloy-
alty, we came to expect failure
even if we had success.
Nothing can be learned
from playing the flute, to hit-
ting home runs, without failing
along the way. We cannot grow
if we never fail. Attitude is the
difference between those who


fail and see it as an opportunity
to learn and those who fail and
see it as another proof of their
incompetence.
This begs some questions:
Who or what defines us? What
and where do the cues come
from that tell us we are OK?
Are those things internal or
external driven? Most of us
don't even take the time to ask
those questions, much less try
and find an answer. Most of
our self-perception is a knee-
jerk, gut-level response to a per-
ception that has been implanted
in us years ago.
This prompts the most impor-
tant question: Do we want to
stay this way? It has been said
that life is journey not desti-
nation and as we embrace this
journey we will fail, slip, and
periodically look back at an
action or decision in our life
and wonder out loud how we
could have possible have been
so stupid. To mess up; to make
a wrong turn in life; to fail, does
not make us failures. All failure


does is offer us a chance, rather,
to learn more about ourselves
and how to better plot strate-
gies to avoid or to rise above
the slippery spots in the future.
It is quite normal to spend a
few minutes everyday beating
ourselves up about some sort
of missed chance in life. It is
unacceptable to remain in that
place, not only beating our-
selves up constantly but expect-
ing only continued letdown.
That is a trap that we can all get
out of. It is not an easy process,
but then there is nothing good
that comes easy. If you are feel-
ing ensnared and tired of old
patterns in your life that never
seem to work, CREDO exists to
provide non-religious, spiritu-
ally based retreat possibilities
that can help break the destruc-
tive models that keep us from
our best. If you are interested in
taking some time for you, give
us a call at 270-6958.

CDS 24, Comfort Completes First Half Of Mission


By MCSN Jeff Hall
USNS Comfort Public.;"
Personnel deployed with hos-
pital ship USNS Comfort (T-
AH 20) hit the halfway mark of
their four-month humanitarian
deployment while setting up for
medical operations in Ecuador
Aug. 15.
Joint forces, civil service
mariners, Canadian forces and
volunteers from Project Hope
and Operation Smile, non-gov-
ernment organizations, spent
the first two months working to
improve the quality of life for
thousands of patients through
medical care, training and infra-
structure improvement projects.
"Overall, our mission has
been incredibly success-
ful," said Capt. Bob Kapcio,
Comfort's mission commander
and Commander, DESRON
24 based in Mayport. "All of
the personnel deployed with
Comfort have put in long, hard
hours to see this mission get
accomplished, and to see the
smiles on the patient's faces
when they leave Comfort. The
reaction of the people we meet
shows we are making an impact
everywhere we go."
Comfort set up medical treat-
ment sites for patients in Belize,
Guatemala, Panama, Nicaragua,
El Salvador and Peru. The
range of care offered at the

a variety of surgeries, including
those to repair a club foot, hys-
terectomies, hernias and remov-
ing tumors.
Operation Smile, which spe-
cializes in treating cleft palates,
came aboard in Nicaragua and
Peru to perform surgeries. Using
Comfort's operating rooms,
Operation Smile surgeons per-
formed facial surgeries on chil-
dren and adults.
Project Hope provided medi-
cal training to local care pro-
viders throughout the six coun-
tries Comfort has visited. The
training concentrated on first-
response care using common
household objects to perform
procedures from splinting to
delivering a baby and cardio-
pulmonary resuscitation.
Seabees from Combat
Battalion Maintenance Unit 202
also provided long-term ben-
efits. Working alongside vol-
unteers, Seabees helped repair
hospitals and schools. Their
projects included painting, roof
replacement, plumbing and
electrical repair, and install-
ing new playground and sports
equipment, as well as general
infrastructure improvements at
each site they visited.
Similarly, biomedical repair
technicians repaired a range
of equipment, from washing
machines to sterilizers, in hos-


pitals and clinics. Pre-deploy-
ment teams scoured Comfort's
potential medical sites to locate
equipment in need of repair.
Following the visits, the bio-
medical teams ordered parts and
equipment needed to make the
repairs.
Comfort personnel also
helped deliver donated medi-
cal equipment from Project
Handclasp. Project Handclasp
takes donated materials from
around the United States and
sends it with Navy ships for dis-
tribution around the world.
Each of these operations
played into the larger Comfort
mission, to create short- and
long-term effects for each
nation visited.
Comfort departed Norfolk
June 15 on a mission of com-
passion and commitment to the
Caribbean and Latin America.
The deployment, part of
Partnership for the Americas,
will take Comfort to six more
nations before returning to the
United States in mid-October.
"With this group of hard-
working individuals, dedicated
to helping others around the
world, we intend to make the
same impact on those we help
in the next two months," said
Kapcio. "We want to leave a
footprint of hope and compas-
sion that will last a lifetime."

Anything Is Possible At SERMC With 'The Hog'


By MC1 Sonja Chambers
Staff
Southeast Regional
Maintenance Center (SERMC)
unveiled its 2008 Strategic Plan
and supporting "Stretch Goals"
Friday during a command-wide
rally which included costumes,
music and Mexican food.
Capt. Jim Green, Commander
SERMC, believes in the "hedge-
hog concept" made famous in
the fable of the Hedgehog and
the Fox (and the Jim Collins
book, 'Good to Great'). As the
fable goes, the hedgehog always
wins the challenges mounted by
the constantly scheming, shifty
fox. As the frantic fox crafts
new strategies to attack the
hedgehog each day, the hedge-
hog relies on his one single,
tried and true, unbeatable strat-
egy of rolling up into a perfect
ball of sharp spines. Hedgehogs
focus on what is essential and
ignore everything else.
SERMC's "Hedgehog
Concept," their "Main Thing"
which provides guidance for
every decision and action at
the command is "to be fanat-
ics about providing Sailors with
the best maintained ships in
the fleet by making SERMC a
world-class service provider."
In the days leading up to the
goal-unveiling event, SERMC
had become a victim to the

Hedgehog Liberation Front
(HLF), which had stolen the
Captain's favorite hedgehog,
and the command's symbol of
world-class service. A play
of events, complete with ran-
som notes and Naval Station
Mayport Security Department
involvement, got the whole
command primed for the Friday
morning all-hands event. Green
outlined SERMC's 2008 Stretch
Goals to the HLF kidnapper in
front of the crowd.
The first goal is for Mayport
ships to be recognized as the
best maintained ships in the
fleet.
"We need to make the
SERMC 'brand' known world-
wide by delivering the kind of
world-class service it will take
to give our ships and the visit-
ing ships 'a fighting chance,' "
said Green.
The second SERMC goal
is to do what it takes to have
SERMC recognized as having
the best trained, most motivat-
ed, most flexible workforce in
the Navy.
"We'll pull this off by listen-
ing to our employees and doing
something about their concerns
and by building super-highways
of communication within the
command," said Green. This
will include implementing a
mentoring program and elimi-


nating the frustration of not hav-
ing the tools or training required
to best use the skills and talents
of employees.
The last goal is for SERMC to
lead one fully-integrated main-
tenance organization, always
providing world class service.
"We'll do this by aligning
Mayport into one high-per-
forming maintenance jugger-
naut with ship's force, contrac-
tors and SERMC maintenance
professionals working side by
side," said Green. SERMC
will look for and capitalize on
opportunities to thrill their cus-
tomers and empower those who
do the work to continuously
improve processes.
Each person in the crowd
received a contract describing
these goals in detail. The cap-
tain had met all the demands of
the kidnappers except one.
"I told you in the last ransom
note," said the kidnapper. "I
want Mexican food all around!"
Green agreed and a catered
Mexican feast was served to
the entire command among
the Production shops' machine
tools and ship repair facilities.
The hedgehog was returned to
the captain by a giant, dancing
hedgehog. The crowd cheered
as the kidnapped hedgehog was
returned and a new era began at
SERMC.

TFLW Takes It On Road


From ( of Naval Personnel Diver-
sity Directorate
Task Force Life/Work
(TFLW) announced Aug. 14 the
upcoming locations and dates
for the TFLW Roadshow in
NAVADMIN 205/07.
The TFLW Roadshow will
be in Jacksonville, Sept. 20-21,
Norfolk, Oct. 17-18; and Pearl
Harbor, Nov. 7-8. A sched-
ule for the Pacific Northwest
and Forward Deployed Naval
Forces areas will be released at
a future date.
These events provide an
opportunity for everyone in the
Navy to hear directly from the
Task Force about current and
future initiatives and to provide
direct feedback. The Task Force
is looking for the thoughts,
opinions, and insights of those
who are, and will be, the leaders
of the 21st century Navy.
Life/work balance refers to
the level of satisfaction a person


has about his or her personal
life and professional life.
"We need to find a program
that is flexible enough to deal
with as broad a base of life situ-
ations as possible, because that
greater career flexibility is going
to be important to our ability to
attract and keep people in the
Navy," said Vice Adm. John
C. Harvey Jr., Chief of Naval
Personnel. "Deployments are
not the issue it's what hap-
pens between deployments.
People are frustrated by what
they see as either unnecessary
or inefficient work practices
ashore, unpredictable sched-
ules, and the general inability
to have a 'normal' life when not
deployed. That's what we're
trying address with Task Force
Life/Work."
Two other options are avail-
able for providing feedback
to the Task Force. The first is
the TFLW Web site. www.npc.


navy.mil/commandsupport/task-
forcelifework. The site details
the mission and vision of the
TFLW, lists announcements,
briefs, the Roadshow schedule,
and provides an email link to
submit direct feedback to Task
Force representatives.
The second is the TFLW
online community blog,
accessed through the TFLW
Web site. Anyone can request to
join the blog by using a (dot)mil
e-mail account. Current discus-
sion threads include telecom-
muting, education opportuni-
ties, work environment, and
life coaches, among others.
Members of the blog can either
comment on existing discussion
threads or begin a new one.
Details regarding changes or
additions to the schedule will
be released through the TFLW
Web site and Naw.mil.

UF Midshipmen Train At


Naval Station Mayport


By Lt. Brigitte M. Aungier
ATGMayport
Afloat Training Group (ATG)
Mayport and Naval Station
Mayport hosted 35 midshipmen
from The University of Florida
as part of their midshipmen ori-
entation on Aug. 15.
The one-week orientation
provides first year midshipmen
with an introduction to military
life and exposure to multiple
service communities.
Organized by senior mid-
shipmen, the week also includ-
ed aviation familiarization at
Naval Air Station Jacksonville
and submarine training at NSB
Kings Bay in Georgia.
"The orientation is positive
for the new midshipman and it
also allows the senior midship-
man to be in a leadership posi-
tion," said officer candidate Ray
Ratliff, a former Gas Turbine
Systems Electrician who served
in Mayport on board USS
Spruance (DD 963) prior to
attending University of Florida.
At Naval Station Mayport,
the midshipmen had the oppor-
tunity to utilize the state-of-
the-art Navigation Seamanship
Shiphandling Trainer (NSST)
laboratory.
The NSST laboratory, which
opened in Mayport this year,
is a simulator that allows ship-
board personnel to practice
and hone shiphandling skills
while in port. The laboratory
is designed to look and feel like
the bridge of a U.S. Navy ship.
Virtual technology enables mul-
tiple training scenarios to be
exercised in a single training
session.
Capt. Glenn Zeiders, ATG
Mayport's commanding officer,
warmly welcomed the midship-
men to the NSST laboratory.
He told them that in his 23 years
of service, ship handling has
been the "most fun."
He also expressed that shiph-
andling skills are a critical ele-
ment of Surface Warfare and
mishap prevention and that even
the most experienced shiphan-
dlers must practice to sharpen
skills.

and has aspirations to go into the Special Operations warfare com-
munity.


officers from ATG enjoyed
working one-on-one with the
midshipmen in the simulator.
Following the NSST ship han-
dling, the midshipman toured
USS Farragut (DD 99).
Lt.j.g. Mark A. Bergland,
assistant professor of Naval
Science for The University of
Florida and former member of
USS Farragut's wardroom, was
pleased at the "great opportu-
nity for future officers to get


hands-on training and a realistic
shiphandling experience."
If your command is interested
in scheduling the NSST labora-
tory for training, please visit the
NSST web site at nsstraining.
org. Ships' crews are required
to complete a 40-hour bridge
resource management course,
but other tailored training is
available on a first-come, first
served basis through the web
site.

Liberty

By Ensign Jason Bilbro
USS Doyle PAO
USS Doyle (FFG 39) pulled
into Port Gentil, Gabon, for a
Theater Security Cooperation
Engagement and some much
needed liberty on Aug. 9.
Port Gentil was Doyle's first
actual liberty port in its first
three months of deployment.
Located south of the Gulf of
Guinea, Gabon is a country
rich with natural resources such
as lumber and oil, as well as
a strong culture and sense of
national pride.
Doyle's Commanding Officer,
Cmdr. Michael Elliott, was well
received by numerous dignitar-
ies of Port Gentil. Several of
the higher ranking officials were
not available; as they were away
in Libreville, Gabon, prepar-
ing for Gabon's Independence
Festival, however, Port Gentil
Mayor Seiaphin Ndao cancelled
travel plans specifically to meet
with Elliott, and presented him
with the key to the city, as well
as a beautiful sculpture.
Afterwards Elliott gave an
interview to the local news in
which he discussed the impor-
tance of Doyle's mission in
Africa and the Gulf of Guinea,
as well as how Doyle's mis-
sion and presence would benefit
Gabon.
Elliott explained the begin-
nings of Global Fleet Stationing,
and future opportunities that
Gabon's Navy would have to
work with Navies from around
the world through this process.
Doyle also had the privi-
lege of hosting Gabonese
Navy Regional Commandant,
Jean Bernard, as well as Port
Gentil's Secretary General,
Charles Ndong Ondo, and other
notable guests for a luncheon
on board the ship. Global Fleet
Stationing was again a hot
topic, and future interactions
between the U.S. Navy and the
Gabonese Navy were discussed
in detail during the meal, which
Elliott described as "very suc-
cessful."
The Doyle crew eagerly
explored the beautiful beaches
and streets of Port Gentil.
"I wanted to stay longer,"
said Chief Information Systems
Technologist (SW) Marcus

Walton, "Port Gentil was nice,
clean, and it was quiet. It was a
great place to relax."
The port boasted several
hotels, including the lovely Le
Meridian, as well as numerous
restaurants and clubs. Pastry
shops and pizza places were
plentiful, as well as stores with
accessories for cellular phones,
which allowed Sailors the
opportunity to get in touch with
loved ones.
Personnel who went sou-
venir shopping discovered
many beautiful carvings made
of Mbigou, a soft stone found
only in the country of Gabon,
which is a source of pride for
the locals. The majority of
the sculptures were of women,
which the Gabonese revere for
their beauty and gift of life.
Many Sailors spent their days
on the beach, swimming in the
ocean, playing football, and
enjoying the local cuisine with
an umbrella over their heads
and the sand under their feet.
The ship was also able to find
time to host tours for a group
of French marines stationed in
Libreville, Gabon, as well as a
group from the local Marathon


Oil Corporation. The Marines
and oil workers were taken on
an informative tour of the ship,
and purchased memorabilia in
the ship's store.
During their final day in
port, Doyle's soccer team,
"The Mariners," broke out
their gear and headed down to
the nearby soccer field, home
of the "National Academy of
Football," located in Port
Gentil.
The Mariners put up a strong
showing throughout the first
half, holding the Academy team
to just two goals. The team
continued their performance,
scoring late in the second half
to end the game with a score of
4-1 in favor of the Academy.
"We played a good game,"
said Mariners coach Lt.
Leopoldo Benites. "Those guys
were good; you could tell they
practice a lot."
"Those kids were so fast,"
added Lt.j.g. Pete Joukov, "A
couple of them were really tal-
ented."
Doyle is beginning the fourth
month of its six-month deploy-
ment off the coast of Western
Africa and the Gulf of Guinea.


Cmdr. Michael Elliott is received at the Port Gentil Naval Base by the Gabonese Navy's ceremonial
guard.

By Ensign Jason Bilbro
USS Doyle PAO
Slimy pollywogs began trem-
bling in fear as USS Doyle
(FFG 39) made its approach to
the equator.
On Aug. 5, Davy Jones, emis-
sary of Neptunus Rex himself,
boarded Doyle and made his
presence known, calling for all
wogss" to entertain the "hon-
orable shellbacks" among the
ships company by means of a
talent show in the afternoon,
and then be accounted for the
following day.
For the talent show, wogs
from each department on board
Doyle, in addition to wogs
from the wardroom and Chief
Petty Officers Mess, took turns
performing before Davy Jones
and his entourage. Each skit
poked fun at various personnel
and evolutions on the ship, and
ranged from imitation to mim-
icry. The junior officers took
shots at the bridge team pull-
ing into port, while the chiefs
did a mock Disciplinary Review
Board, and the Engineering
department performed its epic,


"Shellback Mountain," a tale of
two wogs who travel the seas to
find out what it is like to be a
salty Sailor.
The slimy wogs were awak-
ened early the following
morning by the ship's exalted
shellbacks and taken through
the various stages of the cere-
mony. The journey to become
a shellback ended as wogs
were lead before the tribunal
of Davy Jones and to answer
for his or her charges. When
the ceremony ended, the crew
cleaned the ship and enjoyed
holiday routine and a movie
on the flight deck.
The experience for Doyle
Sailors, contrary to many cer-
emonies of this nature, was a
positive one for crewmembers
who experienced it.
"It was definitely the best
time I've had on deployment,"
remarked Culinary Specialist
Seaman Joshua Rondeau.
"It was fun, to me," said
Electrician's Mate 2nd (SW)
Wayne Wells with a grin, "but
it's not something I'll ever do
again."

Technologist 3rd Class Kevin
Bogue, participating as a shell-
back for the first time said,
"It was a good time. I got to
order around my Divo, the
Communications officer, which
was pretty funny."
More than 60 Doyle crew-
members persevered and
ascended to join the ranks of
the honorable shellbacks.


Additionally, by crossing both
the Equator as well as the Prime
Meridian, personnel partici-
pating in the ceremony earned
the unique title of "Emerald
Shellback."
Doyle Commanding Officer,
Cmdr. Michael Elliott, said he
was exceptionally pleased with
the events.
"I thoroughly enjoyed watch-
ing my entire crew prepare,

this ceremony," Elliott said
proudly. "Every Doyle Sailor,
chief petty officer, and offi-
cer used the golden rule and
ensured everyone had a reward-
ing and memorable experience.
This ceremony was enjoyable
on so many levels. The most
important to me as a command-
ing officer was that everyone


pulled together both pollywog
and shellback and ensured
this event was completed safely
and with the spirit that it should
reflect. I am blessed to have
a crew and family on board
Doyle."
Doyle is nearly three months
into its deployment off the coast
of Western Africa and the Gulf
of Guinea.

Navy Can Use Low-Frequency Sonar


By MCI
Brandan W. Schulze
Navy Office of Information
The National Marine
Fisheries Services issued a
final rule Aug. 16 that allows
the Navy to continue operat-
ing Surveillance Towed Array
Sensor System Low Frequency
Active (SURTASS LFA) sonar
in the western Pacific Ocean for
the next five years, subject to a
yearly authorization renewal.
SURTASS LFA consists of
two separate components. The
LFA portion of the system is
suspended vertically below
the ship and transmits low-fre-
quency sound energy into the


water. SURTASS, the passive
portion of the system, is towed
behind the ship and is made up
of a series of underwater micro-
phones that detect natural and
man-made sound energy in the
water. This allows underwater
objects, such as submarines, to
be detected.
"SURTASS LFA gives us a
solid capability that has been
proven at sea," said Rear Adm.
Carl V. Mauney, Director,
Submarine Warfare. "It allows
us to detect and track diesel-
electric submarines at long
range, enabling action, if neces-
sary, at a time and place of our
choosing."


Deputy Assistant Secretary
of the Navy (Environment)
Donald R. Schregardus says the
ruling "will allow the Navy to
continue operations in the west-
ern Pacific that are vital to our
national defense."
According to Schregardus,
the system is vital for use in
tracking extremely quiet die-
sel-electric submarines, which
could pose a potential threat to
Navy Sailors and ships if they
go undetected.
When operating on battery
power, these submarines can
conduct nearly silent underwa-
ter operations. As countries con-

Sailors who neglect to

unable to take advantage of cer-

For example, a Sailor's
spouse or dependent will not
be able to receive health care
at DoD medical facilities or
receive TRICARE coverage if
the Sailor has not updated the
DEERS database with spouse
or dependent information, said
Rowe.
"They can't be covered,


because DEERS registration is
the key to getting TRICARE
benefits eligibility established,"
he said. DEERS is DoD's
authoritative family member
database and the primary way
to keep track of a Sailors' fam-
ily structure and entitlements,
Rowe said.
Though all Sailors need to
keep their DEERS record updat-
ed, it is dual-military families
who can create the most trouble
for themselves by not doing so,


said Rowe.
Since dual-military spouses
are also automatically covered
by Family Servicemembers'
Group Life Insurance (FSGLI),
a military-to-military couple
may find they owe several
months of FSGLI premiums
because they didn't decline cov-
erage or update their DEERS
record to reflect having a
spouse. In addition, each mem-
ber must update DEERS, and,
if they don't want FSGLI, must


decline coverage in writing.
These debts cannot be waived,
said Rowe, because spouses
were automatically covered.
Remembering to update
DEERS is easier for Sailors
with civilian spouses, said
Rowe. This is because in order
for a spouse to receive medi-
cal benefits or base decals, that
spouse has to be entered into
DEERS in order to obtain an ID
card, he said.
Sailors are encouraged to


contact their Personnel Support
Detachment and update DEERS
along with their Record of
Emergency Data "page 2" and
SGLI beneficiaries after every
life-changing event.

Online For Resource Help


From Naval Personnel Development
Command Public. ;,,
The Navy Knowledge
Online's (NKO) Individual
Augmentee Community of
Practice (IA COP) is a road map
of resources and training for any
Sailor heading to an individual
augmentee (IA) assignment.
Launched in February 2006,
the site provides Sailors with
links to support the Navy's IA
effort.
"This is a 'one-stop-shop'
for Sailors making the transi-
tion from Blue Water to Dirt
Sailor," said Tony Martin,
Naval Personnel Development
Command knowledge manage-
ment specialist. "Our goal is
provide Sailors practical infor-
mation and knowledge that will
help them and their families."
The IA COP started with just
one page of basic information.
Today the site contains 12 pages
of deployment, combat training,
uniform, cultural awareness,
and combat theater information.
Each page contains a discussion
thread and a feedback mech-


anism so that Sailors can ask
questions and share informa-
tion.
With more than 1 million hits,
the IA COP is the official infor-
mation hub where IAs gain and
share deployment knowledge
and complete pre-deployment
online courses.
In January of 2006, when
the Navy IA Program began,
deployment information
was often scattered and diffi-
cult to find. Naval Personnel
Development Command created
the IA COP on NKO to solve
this problem.
"Before the IA COP, we were
inundated with questions," said
Yeoman 1st Class Rosalyn
Reeder, administration leading
petty officer at Navy Individual
Augmentee Combat Training
(NIACT), Fort Jackson, S.C.
"The threaded discussion boards
and feedback gears reduced the
amount of questions we receive
by about 85 percent."
According to Martin, the most
common questions on the dis-
cussion threads are "what will


I be doing and what will I need
to do my job?" All questions
are usually answered within
24 hours by either a deployed
Sailor or the senior enlisted
advisor in theater.
For Chief Master-at-Arms
Charlene Mayo, NIACT weap-
ons officer, the community of
practice provides Sailors a basic
understanding of what combat
training is and is not.
"Sailors can go on NKO and
find out what combat training
at Fort Jackson will cover, learn
about the weapons that will be
issued and take required online
training," said Mayo.
To ensure Sailors are getting
the right information, the sites
content is checked and updated
on a weekly basis.
"Accurate and timely infor-
mation saves lives and money,"
said Martin. "This community
of practice is all about giving
Sailors the information and
knowledge they need to do their
job, take care of their families
and above all come home.


Volunteer Speakers Needed


From CNRSE
Volunteer speakers are needed
at all levels, from senior officers
to junior enlisted, active duty
and reserve, and from all career

MWR Fitness Starts Crossfit Exercise Class


By EODC Michael Solis
Contributor
As the Navy continues to
pursue its culture of fitness the
MWR fitness staff is equally
engaged in providing NS
Mayport only the best services
with a variety of fitness classes,
education, and health promo-
tion.
Most of you should be aware
of the latest fitness sched-
ule which includes a broader
spectrum of classes to meet the
growing demands and diversity
of the base's fitness enthusiasts.
July proved no different as the
first Crossfit Fundamentals
class was offered for those who
were ready to make the transi-
tion to the next higher level of
fitness.
Crossfit burst on to the fit-
ness scene a few years ago and
has recently become a fitness
revolution.
Although crossfitters come in
all shapes and sizes and from
different backgrounds it has
been notably popular with the
military and law enforcement
communities.
Like most fitness trends it
started amongst the SF (special
forces) and SWAT community
and has since trickled down to
the layperson. It quickly took
root in the MIL/LEO commu-
nity because the workouts mim-
icked the same physiological
processes and efforts during real
world operations; thus, produc-
ing better operators and, more
importantly, saving lives.
For these people fitness
means the difference between
life and death. The same can
be said for firefighters; hence,
the increase popularity amongst
this group.


-Photos by Emily Savoca
Sailors work out during the new Crossfit class presented by MWR
Fitness. Crossfit helps prepare athletes and professionals for a vari-
ety of tasks by varying repetitions, sets and time of working out.


Crossfit workouts are now
being implemented at police
and fire academies all over the
country. The traditional PT is
no longer an accurate predictor
of an operator's ability to per-
form his duties effectively.
For example, a long slow
formation run does little to
improve a police officers ability
to sprint 100 yards in order to
take cover or subdue an irra-
tional and belligerent bad guy.
Additionally, after a 100-yard
sprint he may have to engage
this person in order to save his
or his partner's life. In this case
he cannot afford to be out of gas
when the fight is just getting
started.
This type of training program
is not just for adrenaline junk-
ie professionals. Crossfit-type
gyms, in addition to being found


throughout various military
commands, can also be found in
nearly every major city.
Here, the average person can
be seen suffering next to an elite
performer while, both utilize the
same primitive but functional
movements and both reaping
the same rewards.
The movements are what
make Crossfit athletes effec-
tive performers. The program
is non-specialized and utilizes
a variety of different func-
tional movements from power-
lifting, Olympic lifting, track
and field, and gymnastics. The
result of a completely random-
ized approach to reps, sets, and
time produces a group of people
who are ready for whatever life
presents in the way of physical
challenges.
Most of the movements are

LaPlace Satterfield atMWR's new exercise class Crossfit Fundamentals.


basic but others require practice
and reconditioning the muscles
and nervous system to produce
explosive execution while uti-
lizing correct form.
Both men and women can
utilize Crossfit and reap the
same rewards. For nearly every
exercise there is a variation or a
precursor that will set the client
on his or her way to mastering
the required movement. This
varied approach to fitness will
minimize overuse injuries, burn
more fat, build more lean mus-
cle, and elicit a cardio respira-
tory response like nothing else.
Traditional programs that uti-
lize bodybuilding and slow run-
ning are not sufficient to prepare
someone for an elite Crossfit

performance.
Most people who use the
traditional beach body fitness
approach produce marginal
Crossfit times on some of the
benchmark workouts. It is
important to approach this pro-
gram without an ego in order
to maintain safety and prevent
early burnout.
There have been many "in
shape" SF and SWAT operators
who have been hospitalized for
pushing beyond their bodies
ability to handle the workouts.
These cases are not as com-
mon amongst people who aren't
accustomed to pushing their


bodies to the limit but can still
occur.
Before beginning the program
it is recommended that you
learn as much as possible about
the methodology. More infor-
mation can be obtained from
the crossfit.com website.
Furthermore, if you are inter-
ested in joining a local group
who meets once per month
you can visit crossfiteast.com,
which is located in Jacksonville.
If you are interested in joining
the base class and want more
information you can email me
at michael.a.solis@navy.mil.
