29th Chief of Naval Operations
on Sept 29. The text of his mes-
sage is provided below:
The opportunity to continue

From Staff
Mayport USO, Navy/Marine
Corps Relief Society, American
Red Cross and MWR are just
a few of the non-profit organi-
zations that can benefit from
money raised as part of the 2007
Combined Federal Campaign
(CFC).
CFC coordinators met
Wednesday at Ocean Breeze
Conference Center for the offi-
cial kickoff of the annual event.
Started in 1961, the CFC is the
nation's largest workplace char-
ity drive and the only philan-
thropic effort permitted by law
in the federal workplace. Since
its inception, the CFC has raised
more than $5.5 billion.
This year's fundraising
goal for Mayport is $354,000,
a reachable goal according to
ETC(SW/AW) Cedric Daniels,
NS Mayport CFC Loan
Executive.
During the kickoff, Daniels
said one of his goals is to reach
100 percent of Sailors and DoD
civilians to make sure they had
the opportunity to give. One
of the most common ways to
participate with CFC is through
pay allottments.
"We don't want them not
to donate because they don't
know how to fill out the form,"
Daniels said.

unwavering in our obligation to
take care of those who serve in
our navy and the families who
support them. This is particu-

Those are my priorities, but
there is another dimension to
our future. We have a unique

train, deploy, and fight together.
Our capabilities, programs and

stronger and more relevant for
the future. We can do much for
our country as a Navy-Marine

Although we are at war, I see
more opportunity than chal-

than in our past. I look forward
to leading our Navy. I am eager
to meet all that is before us, and
to serving with you as we face

Captain's Column


Welcome home USS Klakring
(FFG 42) and HSL 42 Det. 1
from a six-month deployment!
You did a great job, Shipmates
and your efforts are credited
with interdicting more than
$358 million dollars worth of
cocaine and the detention of 15
suspected narco-terrorists. You
have "made a difference" in
protecting our waters and made
a substantial dent in the ongo-
ing battle of keeping drugs off
our streets.
Congratulations to USS
Vicksburg (CG 69), USS
Roosevelt (DDG 80) and USS
Robert G. Bradley (FFG 49)
for winning the Afloat Safety
Awards for 2006. HSL-48 Det.
2 also won the Annual Ship-
Helicopter Safety Award.
Special recognition goes to USS
Roosevelt for winning their sec-
ond consecutive award. This
award recognizes outstanding
contributions to fleet readiness,
increased morale, efficiency
and economic use of resources
through safety.
The Defense Department is
instituting new protections that
will help defend service mem-
bers against high-interest emer-
gency loans that can lead to a


Capt. Aaron Bowman
dangerous cycle of debt. A new
regulation included in the 2007
National Defense Authorization
Act limits the annual percentage
rate on payday loans, vehicle
title loans and tax refund antici-
pation loans to 36 percent for
active-duty service members
and their families. The change
went into effect Oct. 1. The 36
percent limit in the regulation
includes all fees and charges,
and the rule prohibits contracts
requiring the use of a check or
access to a bank account, man-
datory arbitration and unreason-
able legal notice. The regulation
makes it a criminal offense for


lenders to knowingly charge a
higher interest rate to service
members, so it is essential that
military members be honest
about their status when apply-
ing for loans.
PRT is just around the corner
so make sure you are ready to
give it your all. If any organiza-
tion wants this old guy to join
your PRT training, give me a
call or send a note. Even if you
run 15 minutes a few times a
week it will make a difference.
Try to beat your time from last
PRT. Try to do a few more push-
ups and sit-ups. Remember, we
want you to be in shape not just
for the PRT, but at every time of
the year for your own health.
Coming up in Nov. 2-4,
Mayport is partnering with the
City of Jacksonville for the
2007 Jacksonville Sea and Sky
Spectacular at Jacksonville
Beach. It will be an exciting
event for all those attending.
Things will be extremely busy
around base that weekend so
make sure you are prepared
for higher traffic volume and
aware of your surroundings
as you travel around the base.
Right after the air show, we
will shift into closing out the


calendar year and preparing for
the holidays. Please remem-
ber to include Operational Risk
Management in your holiday
activities and travels. Also,
make sure you are on financial
steady ground before the holi-
days. Families often get caught
up in the Christmas spirit and
lose track of their checkbook
or go credit card happy. Naval
Station Mayport has several
financial planners and budget
specialists that can help you
create a spend plan or get out of
debt. Those service are offered
at Navy Marine Corps Relief,
FFSC, NCFU, and Bank of
America.
There are plenty of Sailors
who may not make it home this
holiday season or who could
become depressed just because
it's the holidays. Fleet and
Family Support Center offers all
kinds of help to those in need of
counseling during the holidays
or any other time of the year. If
you are lonely, hurting or just
depressed give FFSC a call.
They can help.
There have been a few
complaints about speeding
on base and on Wonderwood
Expressway. JSO officers have


told us that several sailors
have accused them of target-
ing the military. I can tell you
that is not the case. JSO does
a great job protecting us and
our relationship with them is
closer than you can imagine.
JSO, like our security force,
does a fantastic job of protect-
ing us all. We have to respect
the laws of this state, and the
posted speed limit signs are law.
Remember this next time you
are in a hurry. Speeding in town
makes a difference of only a
few seconds. It's not worth a
several-hundred-dollar ticket.
On base if you speed you can
accrue points on your license
with each ticket and your driv-
ing privileges could be suspend-
ed. It's not worth it.
The Navy Ball is on Oct.
19 at Ocean Breeze. MCPON
Campa will be the guest speaker
and his wife will be with him to
spend an enjoyable evening. It's
a huge honor to have MCPON
select Mayport to celebrate
Navy's birthday. It will be a
fantastic event and tickets are
selling fast. We are in the ini-
tial planning stages of making
the Army-Navy game an day to
remember. Expect to see events


leading up to the game and then
meeting on base at 1200 on 1
Dec to watch Navy beat Army
one more time.
Red Tide has finally left this
area. Thanks for supporting my
decision to close the beaches.
My son didn't support me on
that one until we were walking
close to the beach and started
coughing uncontrollably.
I've asked for base suggestions
from all of you. So far I've
got several from my son and
his friends: Skateboard Park,
Trading Card Shop, On Base
Bakery, Waterpark, Miniture
Golf Course, Electronic Game
Store. Let's just say I've taken
those for consideration but am
waiting for the rest of you to
contact me.
I want everyone to know the
base looks excellent and I'm so
proud to be the skipper of such
a fantastic base. We are a team
here and everyone is entitled to
this thanks. Remember to keep
up the good work and also tell
us how we can do things better
if you see a better way. There
will never be a "bad" sugges-
tion as far as I'm concerned.

CREDO Corner


By Lt. Rickey Bennett
Spiritual Fitness Division SE
Newlyweds came to a mar-
riage retreat and had swallowed
the happily-ever-after sugar pill
whole and were now feeling
queasy.
"Before we got married we
couldn't bear to be apart," the
wife said. "I thought we'd do
even more things together once
we were married. But now he
says he needs more space. If
our marriage was a car, it was
a Ferrari but now it's a Ford
Taurus station wagon."
Nervously twisting his wed-
ding band, the husband said,
"Marriage isn't what we expect-
ed. We didn't expect a big hon-
eymoon or anything; we just


thought life would get a little
easier for us. Instead, when
we come home from work, the
stress level increases..."
Silenced by their display
of unrestrained emotion, their
facial expressions said, "See!
Our marriage isn't what it's sup-
posed to be."
When they got married, this
couple had heard that marriage
was hard work, but they didn't
expect it to be a 24-7 job. The
expectation of an easy marriage
can be destructive. Plaguing
every unsatisfied couple is a
vast assortment of expectations
about what marriage should
be, juxtaposed with the real-
ity of what marriage really is.
Every partner brings to mar-


riage a host of conscious and
unconscious desires-many of
which remain unfulfilled. Very
often partners within a marriage
have a clear image of what
life together would be like,
yet never discuss it with their
spouse. It is usually assumed
that the other had the same pic-
ture in mind.
On the one hand, one might
expect married life to bring
more stability and predictabil-
ity to their lifestyle, like work-
ing in a garden together. On
the other hand, another might
be expecting a marriage that is
more exciting and spontaneous,
not ho-hum, sort of like riding a
motorcycle together cross coun-
try to an unknown destination.


Engaged people fantasize about
life after crossing the threshold.
They'd watched other couples,
read books, seen TV shows and
movies. With little effort, each
formed an idea of what it would
be like to live as a married cou-
ple.
Consciously and unconscious-
ly, each paints brush strokes on
their mental canvas. But it sel-
dom occurs to either of them
that the other would be working
from a different palette. They
simply assumed they'd work
with complementary colors and
similar styles. Their first year
together often reveals sharp and
unexpected contrasts.
While one can paint care-
fully with delicate pastels, the


other can paint boldly with pri-
mary colors leading to clash-
ing expectations. This leaves
room for couples to wonder if
their marriage was a mistake.
When conflicting expectations
cause a problem, they usually
fall into two categories: unspo-
ken rules and unconscious roles.
Unspoken rules are hidden, and
we all have them. Unspoken
rules don't surface until an
unsuspecting spouse "breaks"
one of them.
While unspoken rules trip
us up when we least expect it,
they're not the only source of
mismatched expectations. Think
about the unconscious roles that
you and your partner fall into,
almost involuntarily.


Just as an actor in a play fol-
lows a script, so do married
couples. Without knowing it,
a bride and groom are drawn
into prescribed ways of relating
to each other that are a mix-
ture of personal dispositions,
family backgrounds and mari-
tal expectations. Do you feel
like your expectations and have
ambushed you and your mar-
riage?
Contact our office to register
for one of our retreats so that
you can openly share, gain some
clarity, and recapture some pas-
sion. Call 904-240-6958, ext.

H omefront in Focus


By Beth Wiruth
Military Spouse Support Contributor
Are you in the midst of
deployment, facing an upcom-
ing deployment or in the glow
of homecoming? Have you
noticed that you are experienc-
ing some emotional changes or
challenges? You are not alone.
Many seasoned military spous-
es are familiar with something
called the 'emotional cycle of
deployment.' First identified by
Navy spouse, Kathleen Vestal-
Logan, the emotional cycle
of deployment identifies the
seven emotional stages military
spouses experience during the
pre-deployment, deployment
and post-deployment periods.
Understanding this phenomenon
will help you and your sailor to
identify the stages and effec-
tively maneuver through them.
This week we will look at
the two stages of this cycle that
take place in the 'pre-deploy-
ment' phase of deployment
readiness and tips for success-


ful navigation through them.
Before we begin it is interest-
ing to note that whether you are
on a 'boomer' experiencing a
'shorter' cruise, a surface fleet
deployment or even TAD orders
for school this phenomenon
affects us all to some degree.
Stage one, Anticipation of
Loss, can start as early as six
weeks prior to deployment.
Spouses can experience moodi-
ness or depression, even irrita-
bility. Couples may experience
unusual bickering and there can
begin an emotional distance as
couples start to prepare for sep-
aration. During this time it is
natural to wonder how you will
get through deployment alone.
It is natural to worry about the
safety of your sailor. It is natu-
ral to wonder if you can make
it through deployment and face
the unknown without your part-
ner.
Men and women experi-
ence this phase differently. As
women ponder the upcoming


separation we tend to want to
spend more time with our hus-
bands. We want to make memo-
ries and in essence 'fill up our
love tanks" during this time.
Men on the other hand begin
to withdrawal. One sailor stat-
ed, "It is easier to pull away in
the early on so it doesn't hurt
so deeply on the day we leave."
For sailors the weeks prior to
leaving are filled with moving
aboard and long hours of readi-
ness preparations.
Take time during these two
stages to connect with the fam-
ily support group. Take part
in all pre-deployment nights
or workshops that are avail-
able to you even if you are
a 'seasoned' spouse. Look for
those relationships that will be


a support to you during deploy-
ment. Take steps to build those
relationships if they are not in
place. Contact your FFSC or
ombudsman for any sugges-
tions and information on avail-
able groups. Church groups and
other social groups can also
offer important relationships.
Make sure you know who your
ombudsman is and get on her
email tree and newsletter list.
Keep talking to your spouse.
Talk about decisions you may
face in their absence. These
questions can include things
from where to get the car
repaired to spending plans, to
emergency plans. Having these
conversations can help you feel
more prepared to handle their
absence, especially if this is


your first deployment.
Stage two, Detachment and
Withdrawal, usually takes place
in the last week before deploy-
ment. Spouses sometimes expe-
rience fatigue. Sailors are busy
moving aboard, often spending
longer hours on the ship/boat
and begin to emotionally sepa-
rate during this week. This can
be hard on the spouse as they
are trying to "hold-on" to every
moment they have left with
their sailor.
This stage may be character-
ized by ambivalence toward
intimacy. One the one hand
we realize that this is our last
chance for physical intimacy
for some time and we don't
want to lose that opportunity.
But because we've also begun


to separate emotionally it can
be difficult to want to open up
that connection with our spouse.
Again, these are normal feel-
ings.
The cycle of deployment will
be a bit different for each indi-
vidual but understanding and
recognizing the stages empow-
ers us as spouses in recognizing
and responding to these stages
in our lives.
Next week we will look at
the three stages of the cycle of
deployment we experience dur-
ing deployment.

By MC2
Brandon Shelander

After seeing and treating
patients in 11 countries, the
hospital ship USNS Comfort
(T-AH 20) arrived in the port of

stop on its four-month humani-
tarian assistance deployment.
While in Suriname, U.S.
Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard,


Army, United States Public
Health Service, Canadian
Forces and the non-governmen-
tal organization Project Hope
will continue to provide the
people of Latin America and the
Caribbean with health care ser-
vices, including adult and pedi-
atric cooperative care, dental
care and other services.
In addition to the medi-
cal services the Comfort


team will offer, the embarked
Naval Construction Battalion
Maintenance Unit 202's
Seabees will construct play-
grounds at the Onverwacht and
the Zanderij clinics.
Comfort will remain in
Suriname for nearly a week
offering medical services
at various locations in and
around Paramaribo includ-
ing the Academic Hospital, the


Foundation for Dental Care, the
Nursing School, the Zanderij
Clinic, Onverwacht Clinic and
the Regional Health Service
Clinic at Flustratt.
Project Handclasp, a non-
profit organization that works in
partnership with the U.S. Navy,
will donate hospital beds, medi-
cal supplies, handmade quilts,
hospital furniture, teddy bears,
and children's and infant cloth-


ing at the Onverwacht Clinic.
"Although this is our last
stop, we are focused on per-
forming our mission to provide
the best possible care for the
people of Suriname in part-
nership with our Paramaribo
hosts," said Capt. Bob Kapcio,
Comfort's mission commander.
"We look forward to the collab-
oration, which gives us another
opportunity to strengthen our


partnership with the Americas."
Comfort is on a four-month
humanitarian deployment
to Latin America and the
Caribbean providing medical
assistance to patients in a dozen
countries. The deployment is
in support of the U.S. Southern

By MC2 Joshua Karsten
USNS Comfort Public. -
A welcoming ceremony for
the arrival of hospital ship
USNS Comfort (T-AH 20)
was held at the Youth Dental
Foundation in Paramaribo, Oct.
2.
The ceremony marked the
beginning of a humanitar-

Strijk, district commissioner
of Paramaribo; Lisa Bobbie
Schreiber Hughes, U.S. ambas-
sador to Suriname; Capt. Bob
Kapcio, Comfort's mission
commander; and Ivan Fernald,
Suriname minister of defense.
"We look forward to bringing


the skills of the people aboard
this unique, first-class ship
to our friends and partners in
Suriname," Kapcio said. "Being
able to help those who reach out
to the U.S. and to make their
futures brighter is what has
made this mission special."
Hughes thanked the staff,
crew and medical professionals
from Comfort for their devotion
during the past six months of
planning and carrying out medi-
cal missions in 12 countries.
Fernald spoke of the partner-
ship between the United States
and Suriname.
"The arrival of the [Comfort]
demonstrates the commitment
of the U.S. working together
with neighboring nations and
helping people through medical
and humanitarian assistance,"


Fernald said. "I would like to
convey my gratitude to the
President of the United States,
Mr. George W. Bush, who made
this project possible. I hope that
the Comfort team will look back
on this mission as a job well
done."
The ceremony concluded with
a ribbon-cutting ceremony and a
tour of the dental clinic.
Comfort staff, consisting of
U.S. Navy, Air Force, Coast
Guard, Public Health Service

FFG CLASSRON Saves Ships Money, Man-hours


By MC3
Scarlett Krusemark
SURFLANT Pubhlc. ;
The Frigate Class Squadron
(FFGRON), based in Mayport,
Fl., has discovered a way to
save money and improve effi-
ciency for all of the Navy's frig-
ates.
During a research project,
officers and civilian contrac-
tors observed better ways to
maintain the fire pumps located
throughout the ships and imple-


mented a plan for change.
The first part of the two-fold
plan involved changing the seals
that were being used on the fire
pumps from a composite sleeve
seal to a komenel seal.
The new seal costs less than
the one it replaces, but performs
better, and has a lower failure
rate. Also, when the old seals
needed to be repaired they had
to be sent off the ship, and that
took days or weeks. The new


seals can be changed out by the
ship's force within a day.
"Annually we've saved
the FFG community an esti-
mated three and one quar-
ter million dollars," said Lt.
Michael Niznick, FFGRON
Maintenance Assessments and
Analysis Officer. "The ships are
also spending $1,000 for parts
rather than $24,000, and the
new procedure has dramatically
affected the turn-around time


for part replacement and repair.
Everyone was thrilled with the
results."
In the second part of the plan,
the FFGRON wrote new guid-
ance concerning the operation
of the fire pumps.
Previously, Sailors had no
specific written instructions
regarding the operation of the
fire pumps, resulting in a higher
failure rate.
"It's saved a lot of head-
aches overall," said Damage


Controllman First Class(SW)
Christopher Juanfollowell, from
USS Underwood (FFG 36).
"Less worrying about equip-
ment failure, less personnel
work. Anytime you can reduce
stress for personnel it tends
to be beneficial to everyone
involved."
According to Cmdr. Michael
Hegarty, Deputy Chief
Readiness Officer for the
Surface Warfare Enterprise,
that is part of the goal, reduc-


ing extra man-hours outside of
normal working hours on main-
tenance, while giving shipboard
Sailors more time to train dur-
ing the work week.
"The average failure rate of
the fire pumps has gotten much
lower," said Niznick. "The
pumps can run longer than
before, and because it lasts lon-
ger we save money on repairs."
The changes are in effect on
all the Navy's 30 frigates.


USS Farragut Families, Friends


Join Crew For Day Cruise


By Ensign Sandra Davis
USS Farragut PAO
USS Farragut (DDG 99)
hosted its first Family and
Friends Day Cruise. More than
150 guests arrived on the pier
to meet the ship as it pulled in
from a week of training and
drills. Sailors waved to their
loved ones, anxious to bring
them on board and show off the
war ship that commissioned in
June of last year.
Some visitors came aboard
early to witness and congratu-
late the advancement of six
crewmembers to chief petty
officer. Shortly after, the ship

By OS2(SW) Kimbelee Orr
USS Farragut
On Oct. 1, two Sailors
from USS Farragut (DDG 99)
were commissioned as United
States Navy Limited Duty
Officers(LDOs).
Chief Electronics
Technician(SW) Jeffrey Doody
and Operation Specialist 1t
Class(SW/AW) Quincy Hebert
held the ceremony on board
the ship with family, friends,
and shipmates. Farragut
Commanding Officer, Cmdr.
Scott Dugan, read their oath and
family members had the hon-
ors of replacing their covers and
pinning their new ranks.
LDOs are a very unique part
of the Naval service. They serve
in a role like no other commis-
sioned officer can. They are
enlisted people who are com-


departed for sea where the crew
shared their workspaces and
experiences with the guests.
Some crewmembers enjoyed
the breeze and views from
topside while they listened to
their crewmember talk about
their responsibilities on board
and the mission of the ship.
Others made sure to stop at
every accessible space and see
as much of the ship as possible.
Some of the veterans enjoyed
finding their active duty coun-
ter-part and seeing how technol-
ogy has changed over the years.
The cruise included a live fire
exercise as the families watched


from the helicopter hangars and
the missile decks.
"I'm going to join the Navy
when I grow up!" one child
exclaimed as he watched the
crew show off their gun skills.
After the guns were put away,
the guests were treated to a
fantastic lunch of ribs, chick-
en, hamburgers and hot dogs,
which they ate on the flight
deck, in steel beach style, or on
the messdecks.
Before returning to home
port, the 125th Fighter Wing
from the Florida Air National
Guard (FANG) made a special
trip to the ship and put on a


show for the crew and guests.
Four F-15 jets flew by at top
speed doing turns that left the
crowd in awe.
Farragut Commanding
Officer, Cmdr. Scott Dugan,
made his way around the ship
greeting the extended family of
Team Farragut.
"The ship is the crew's home
away from home, he said. "It
was a great chance for them
to show off this side that their
loved ones don't often get a
chance to see."

Turns Sailors Into Officers


-Photo courtesy of USS Farragut
Chief Electronics Technician (SW) Jeffrey Doody of USS Farragut
is pinned during a commissioning ceremony as a Limited Duty
Officer (LDO). Operation Specialist 1st Class Quincy Hebert was
also commissioned as an LDO,


missioned as officers, and have
been called to serve from their
senior enlisted ranks as techni-
cal managers.
An LDO has the necessary
experience and technical back-
ground to perform tasks that call
for the officer rank and proto-
col to carry out, but require the
enlisted heart and experience to
get accomplished.
Both officers will continue to
work in their field of expertise,
Doody as an Electronics LDO
on board USS McCampbell
(DDG 85) and Hebert as an
Operations LDO on board the
preconstruction unit Truxtun,
which will commission in 2008.

Ever wonder if Naval Station
Mayport could be hit by a tsu-
nami? It could happen, but is
unlikely.
Naval Station Mayport is
susceptible to a seismic and/
or geological event. A severe
earthquake is one of the destruc-
tive phenomena of nature. It
is caused by a slippage of a
boundary between two of earth's
tectonic plates. Fault lines in
our area are, New Madrid,
Charleston/Summerville, and
the Puerto Rico Trench. The
effect can be unnoticed to mild
or totally devastating. The event
is immediate, may be violent
and occur without warning at
any time of the day or night.
Tsunami, also known as seis-
mic sea waves, is a series of
long waves created by an under-
water disturbance such as an
earthquake, landslide, volcanic
eruption or meteorite.
A tsunami can move hundreds
of miles per hour and generate
waves as high as 100 feet. The

Once the waves approach the
shore, it builds in height. The
topography of the coastline and
the ocean floor influence the
size of the wave.
Tsunami wave periods can
be between 10 minutes to two
hours and their length can be as
great as 300 miles. They may
appear as a rapidly rising or
falling tide, a series of breaking
waves or even a bore. Strong
currents and debris carried by
the wave add to the destructive
nature of this inundating flood.
Fortunately tsunamis are rare
along the east coast, however;
there is a fault line that runs
through the Puerto Rico Trench
that could affect our area on
short notice.
The National Weather Service

Mayport USO's twice-month-
ly "No Dough Dinners" are a
convenient opportunity for them
to enjoy a nutritious meal while
socializing with other military
families.
The concept is to make life
a little easier and make dol-
lars go a little farther for those
whose spouse or parent is tem-
porarily out of the home, on
assignment, or deployed over-
seas or aboard a ship. The din-
ners have been offered regularly
since last November.
That was the case with many
of the families who attended the
most recent "No Dough Dinner"
Monday evening, Sept. 24.

among those who brought their
children to the Mayport Center
to enjoy a free baked ham

Boatswain Mates 3rd Class Dilangin Young and Travis Page of USS Gettysburg participated in the
Navy Buddy Program, joining the Navy right out of high school. They plan to reenlist together next
month.


Hometown Buddies 'Stay


Navy' On Gettysburg


By Lt.j.g.
Andrew Bonderud
USS Gettysburg PAO
Boatswain Mates 3rd Class
Travis Page and Dilangin
Young are both assigned to USS
Gettysburg (CG 64) in the ship's
Deck Division. Both from
Moore Haven, Florida, they
graduated from Moore Haven
Junior Senior High School in
2004 and attended boot camp
together.
They reported aboard
Gettysburg on Oct. 1, 2004.
The list does not stop there,
though. You name it-base-
ball teams, basketball teams,
elementary school, hometown
neighborhood, and even boot
camp division-these two best
friends were there together.
They enlisted in the Navy
through the "Buddy Program"
shortly after graduating high
school, and on Nov. 22 they will
reenlist together, extending their
commitment to the U.S. Navy
for four more years.
According to Navy Career
Counselor 1st Class Wilfredo
Vargas, Gettysburg's Command
Career Counselor, this is exact-


ly what the Buddy Program is
designed to do.
He said, "The Buddy Program
guarantees your first duty sta-
tion with your friend if you
enlist together."
After that, Sailors are subject
to the same detailing system as
everyone else, but Vargas adds,
"It is a great program, as our
two Sailors demonstrate."
Young is glad that he made
the decision to enlist through
the Buddy Program.
He commented, "I think
the Buddy Program is a good
program, because it made the
whole process much easier for
me. When I was at boot camp, I
always had my best friend there
with me to talk with, and there
was always someone I knew."
Young said that if not for his
best friend, Page, he might not
have even joined the Navy.
"Page gave me a call when
he was talking with a recruiter
and told me that the Navy is
something I should look into.
After that, we both decided that
we were going to join. We went
to the Navy recruiting office,
and they told us that they could


sign us up under the 'Buddy
Program.' It definitely worked
out pretty well."
Page said that he has really
enjoyed his experience in the
Navy, in no small part due to
the fact that he has been with
his best friend the entire time.
He noted, "We went to boot
camp together, ATD School
together, and we reported to
Gettysburg on the same day.
It's been a blast."
When asked about their
upcoming reenlistment, Page
remarked, "We decided that we
have gone this far together in
the Navy that we wanted to read
each other the oath and reenlist
together."
The reenlistment will be held
on Gettysburg's Messdecks,
while deployed, on Nov. 22.
USS Gettysburg is a
Ticonderoga-class guided mis-
sile cruiser, homeported at
Naval Station Mayport, Florida.
It is currently deployed to the
Arabian Gulf as the Air Defense
Commander with the USS
Enterprise Carrier Strike Group.

Its Newest Chiefs


By Lt.j.g. Steven Gonzalez
USS Boone PAO
A mystique surrounds the
chief selectee induction and the
ultimate transformation from a
first class petty officer into a
chief petty officer (CPO).
More than 110 years of hon-
ored tradition and intensive
training have ensured that the
transition from wearing a crow
to an anchor remains one of the
most anticipated moments of
an enlisted Sailor's career. The
fouled anchor is the emblem of
the CPO of the United States
Navy. To the novice, the anchor,
chain and letters identify just a
CPO, but to a chief these have a
more noble and glorious mean-
ing.
On board USS Boone three
Sailors experienced that mile-
stone; Chief Gas Turbine
System Technician Mechanical
(SW) Mike Shanahan, Chief
Storekeeper (SW) Tony Rivera
and Chief Culinary Specialist
(SW) Evon Daley became the
newest members of Boone's
chief's mess.
Boone CMDCM (SW)
Witteny A. Rose gave the new
chiefs insights on what he and


others in the chiefs' mess expect
from these new leaders.
"This is a big step in your
Navy career. You are going
from blue shirt to khaki, and
that means the blinders are
starting to open up. As a first
class, and even as a division
chief, you're kind of focused on
your little piece of the pie with-
in your division," Rose said.
"My vision is for the chiefs to
be an example to the Sailors, so
that the Sailors will aspire to be
chiefs also. That should really
be the legacy we leave."
Selectees voluntarily undergo
a six-week transition involving
team-building tasks, fund rais-
ing, community service projects
and physical training, capped

emony.
When Rivera, one of this
year's new chiefs, heard of his
selection he felt relieved and
excited.
"Everyone looks at the chiefs
as the backbone of the ship,"
Rivera said. "They are the ones
we depend on to lead the way
and get the job done. And that's
how I want to be seen as well."
Dalev. another of Boone's


new chiefs considered his
selection as one of the great-
est moments of his life. "I've
accomplished something that a
lot of other Sailors want, but
only a privileged few achieve.
This is what every Sailor should
strive for."
An integral part of making
the transition from blue shirt to
chief is the leadership role they
assume.
Shanahan stated, "Chief's
have to leave the hands-on side
of the house and become lead-
ers and mentors in their field.
They become the experts and
have to manage their junior per-
sonnel."
Each of Boone's new chiefs is
ready to take on the responsibil-
ity and demands that their new
rank brings.

Loans To
By Sgt. Sara Wood, USA
American Forces Press Service
The Defense Department is
instituting new protections that
will help defend servicemem-
bers against high-interest emer-
gency loans that can lead to a
dangerous cycle of debt.
A new regulation included
in the 2007 National Defense
Authorization Act limits the
annual percentage rate on pay-
day loans, vehicle title loans and
tax refund anticipation loans to
36 percent for active-duty ser-
vicemembers and their families.
The change takes effect Oct. 1.
This is a big change, as the
interest rates on these "preda-
tory" loans can run as high as
several hundred percent, said
David S.C. Chu, undersecretary
of defense for personnel and
readiness. Troops and their fam-
ilies have often fallen victim to
these loans when they come up
short between paychecks, and
they can lead to serious prob-
lems, he said.
"It's a big problem for com-
manders, because what happens
is often these households get
themselves in over their heads,"
Chu said. "They're $200 short
between now and next payday,
but they're no better off when
payday comes, so they need
a bigger loan, and it just goes
downhill fromthere."
The 36 percent limit in the
regulation includes all fees and
charges, and the rule prohib-
its contracts requiring the use
of a check or access to a bank
account, mandatory arbitration
and unreasonable legal notice,
Chu said. The regulation makes
it a criminal offense for lenders
to knowingly charge a higher
interest rate to servicemembers,
so it is essential that military

Servicemembers


members be honest about their
status when applying for loans,
he said.
"One of the things that we're
a little worried about is people
may be tempted, in order to get
this old product that is now off
limits, to answer this question
in a non-factual way," Chu said.
"They need to be honest."
It is the states' responsibility
to enforce the regulation, Chu
said, and already 27 states have
stepped forward and agreed to
enforce restrictions on the finan-
cial institutions. The department
has received the assurance of
federal regulators that they will
oversee the institutions they
regulate, he said.
In addition to implementing
this new regulation, the Defense
Department also is stepping up
efforts to educate servicemem-
bers about financial planning
and where to go for help in an
emergency, Chu said. Many
times, servicemembers can go
to their bank or credit union
directly and ask what loan prod-
ucts they have available, he
said, or they can go to their mil-
itary aid societies or the family
community support centers.
In addition, most institu-
tions that troops would owe
money to, including the Internal
Revenue Service, often are will-
ing to work with clients to defer
payments. Servicemembers also
can go to the online resourc-
es Military OneSource and
Military Homefront for infor-
mation on financial planning.
"The first defense here ... is
good education for our people
so they understand better how
to manage their finances wisely,
so they don't get themselves in
trouble and so they don't come
up short at the end of the month


or the end of the pay period,"
Chu said. "But if they do, they
know where to turn and how to
get help."
This regulation is important
because financial readiness
directly affects mission readi-
ness for military members, Chu
said. If a troop is worried about
an unpaid credit card bill, a
needed car repair, or any other
financial crisis, he won't be
able to focus on the mission.
Chu said commanding offi-
cers from around the military
have applauded the Defense
Department's efforts in this
arena, because individual finan-
cial problems often cause unit
readiness problems.
"As commanders, even at the
division level, they are dealing
with the fallout among their
people from these kinds of pay-
day loans," Chu said. "They
want to get this problem off the
screen; they want to solve the
problem too. I think we have a
whole community that's ready
to move forward."
The Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation, which
guarantees deposits by commer-
cial banks, has agreed to work
with the Defense Department
on this regulation, because it is
a chance to promote emergency
small loans for servicemembers,
as well as other citizens in the
United States, Chu said.
"We are perhaps at the lead-
ing edge of a national move-
ment, trying to put better finan-
cial management on everyone's
screen, military and civilian,
and of course ultimately, that
is the goal that our people are
better equipped to deal with
financial issues," he said.

NH Jax Psychologists Work With


Combat-Related Stress In Iraq


By Marsha Childs
NHJax Marketing
Lt. Nicole Stewart, Mental
Health assistant department
head, chose the mental health
field based on a single traumat-
ic event early in her life that set
her on her path. Her best friend
was raped and killed when they
were in the sixth grade. Stewart
was devastated, but she remem-
bered the kindness of the psy-
chologists who helped her make
sense of the tragedy. Her own
traumatic event stuck with her
and by Junior High School she
knew she wanted to be a foren-
sic psychologist.
Stewart arrived at the hospi-
tal in July 2006 and by Labor
Day she knew she would be
deploying to Iraq. She reported
in February 2007 to Camp Al
Taqaddum, Iraq, a Marine Corps
base where she was assigned to
the Combat Stress Department.
The staff consisted of Navy
psychiatrist Capt. Christopher
Kowalsky, psychiatric techni-
cian Hospital Corpsman Second
Class Steven Nicholson and
Stewart. The team was respon-
sible for about 3,000 military
personnel and treated more than
800 patients during Stewart's
7-month tour of duty. They pri-
marily dealt with combat-relat-
ed stress, but also treated sleep
and adjustment disorders, acute
stress and depression.
Being a female psychologist
worked to her advantage in Iraq.
Her patients found it was more
comfortable opening up to her.
The majority of her patients
suffered from post traumatic
stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety


Revamps
From Naval Hospital Jacksonville
Naval Hospital Jacksonville
has been working for some
time to upgrade patient care
areas. Those improvements
moved closer to realization on
Sept. 21 when Naval Facilities
Engineering Command
(NAVFAC) Southeast award-
ed C. Young Construction, of
Jacksonville, Fla., a $4.9 mil-
lion contract for two projects in
the main facility.
"Upgrading our facility spac-
es is an integral component to
ensuring that we continue to
provide the highest quality of
patient care and patient safety
while promoting efficiencies in
delivering that," said Hospital
Commanding Officer Capt.
Raquel Bono.
In-patients at the Naval
Hospital will soon have more
privacy. The latest hospital
areas to undergo renovations
and construction are the 7th
floor Surgical Recovery Ward

that can occur in anyone who
has gone through a traumatic
event. Many of her patients
witnessed death and destruction
on a regular basis. They were
constantly under attack, mak-
ing sweeps, going door to door.
They saw things that most of
them couldn't even describe to
their mothers or girlfriends.
Marines and soldiers were
hesitant to seek help for PTSD
fearing the stigma of being
labeled as weak. Many didn't
want to talk about what they
had witnessed on the battle-
field. As the troops became
more comfortable with seeing
Stewart on the base and hear-
ing of her caring nature, they
became more at ease in talking


to her about their issues. She
reassured them it was OK to
talk about their problems before
they became more serious.
Stewart worked tirelessly to
educate the Marine battalion
commanders about combat-
related stress.
"It is not anything to be
embarrassed about," she told
them. Senior enlisted person-
nel and officers also suffer
from PTSD too. Occasionally
a Marine would be ordered to
seek mental health counseling in
Iraq, but according to Stewart,
you can't force anybody into
therapy. "We got a lot of that in
theater. They have to come in
on their own and talk about it,"
she said.


Since her return to
Jacksonville in July, she has
been treating more patients for
PTSD.
"It is easier to me to relate
to some of their experiences.
I have a better understanding
than I did prior to deployment,"
Stewart said.
Upon reflection, Stewart
feels she made a difference in
the lives of her patients. She
joined the Navy as a clinician to
get the well-rounded experience
she couldn't get anywhere else.
She relied on her faith, her col-
leagues and the love of her work
to keep herself grounded while
deployed. She also tried not to
take herself too seriously.

Apple Strudel: Traditional Or Quick


By Kay Blakely
DeCA home economist
Apple strudel is to Austria,
what apple pie is to America a
feel-good, heartwarming indul-
gence of apple sweetness sur-
rounded by a tender flaky crust.
If you have the good fortune
of being stationed in central
Europe, especially in southern
Germany, or being a visitor to
Austria, a serving of apple stru-
del is as close as the nearest res-
taurant or coffee house. But, if
you're thousands of miles from
strudel central, you just might
have to make your own.
Would you believe that mak-
ing an authentic strudel, totally
from scratch, could be an all-
day adventure? It's true! You'll
need a work surface of at least
3 square feet, with enough room
to walk around it on all sides.
Plus, the energy and patience to
mix, knead and roll the strudel
dough, and the talent to stretch
it over the backs of your hands
until its silky smooth, and thin
enough to read a newspaper
through.
Thankfully, frozen phyllo
dough is an excellent substitute
that will produce results almost
as good as the real article. No
kneading, rolling or stretching
is required, but additional steps
like brushing the phyllo sheets
with butter and toasting fresh
bread crumbs to sprinkle over
them before adding the apple
filling can take about an hour of
effort before the strudel is ready
for the oven. When you've got
an hour to spare, come to Kay's
Kitchen on the Web at http://


www.commissaries.com for the
traditional recipe.
Otherwise, try the quick and
easy version here. It uses puff
pastry, which is easier still,
takes a little over two hours
from start to finish (the vast
majority of which is devoted to
thaw, bake and cool time) and
requires only about 20 minutes
of active involvement from the
cook. Find both phyllo dough
and puff pastry in your commis-
sary's freezer section.
Quick and Easy
Apple Strudel
1 sheet frozen puff pastry (1/2
of a 17.3 oz box)
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon flour
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2 large apples, peeled, cored
and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons raisins
Powdered sugar (optional)
1. Thaw the pastry at
room temperature for 40 min-
utes or until easy to handle.
2. Preheat oven to 375
degrees. Lightly grease a bak-
ing sheet.
3. Break the egg into a
small bowl, add the tablespoon
of water and lightly beat with a
fork. Set aside.
4. Mix sugar, flour and
cinnamon in a medium bowl.
Add sliced apples and raisins,
and toss to coat well.
5. Unfold pastry sheet on
a lightly floured board. Using a
floured rolling pen, gently roll
the sheet into a 16-by-10-inch
rectangle.


6. With a short side fac-
ing you, spoon apple mixture
onto bottom half of pastry, leav-
ing a 1-inch margin at the end
and both sides, between the fill-
ing and the edges of the pastry.
7. Gently lift and fold
the margins of pastry over the
filling, then gently lift and roll
toward the opposite end, jelly-
roll style.
8. Place seam-side down
on baking sheet, pinching ends
together to seal.
9. Use a pastry brush to
lightly coat the pastry with the
egg mixture, then cut several
2-inch long diagonal slits across
the top of the strudel with a
thin-bladed, sharp knife. Space
the cuts about 2 inches apart.
10. Bake at 375 degrees

DeCa
Commissary patrons continu-
ally ask one question: "Why
doesn't the commissary 'dou-
ble' coupons like civilian gro-
cery stores do?"
The answer is simple:
Commercial stores operate at a
profit by marking up the gro-
cery items they sell. By law,
commissaries must sell items at
cost not for profit.
If a shopper redeems a man-
ufacturer's coupon for 25 cents
and a commercial store doubles
it to 50 cents, the manufacturer
pays the store only the value of
the coupon, which is 25 cents.
The additional 25 cents comes
out of the store's built-in profit
margin. Many local stores can
double coupons, knowing that
while they may lose money on a
-few items, they make up the dif-
' ference in their overall markups.


DeCA, however, has no such
profit margin to make up the
difference for a doubled coupon,
so commissaries honor only the
amount on the coupon that the
manufacturer will rebate.
Many patrons confuse the
commissary surcharge with
profit. The 5-percent surcharge,
added to a shopper's total pur-
chase at checkout, is mandated
by Congress and used only to
build new commissaries and
renovate existing ones. DeCA
cannot use the surcharge fund
to purchase groceries for resale
or to pay the salaries of com-
missary employees. Neither can
it be used to offset costs associ-
ated with doubling coupons.
For more information about
using coupons at your commis-
sary, or to find coupons online,
log onto DeCA's Web site at:
http://www.commissaries.com.
