The planned acquisition of
GMH Military Housing was
completed by Balfour Beatty,
pIc on April 30. Going forward,
GMH Military Housing will
be known as Balfour Beatty
Communities.
Initially the company will
operate under both names-
Balfour Beatty Communities
and GMH Military Housing-
until the transition of our
identity is complete in about
four months. While our name
is changing, our core focus
remains exactly the same: to
provide exceptional housing and
responsive world class service
to the U.S. Military personnel
who live in the properties we
manage.
Balfour Beatty Commumfies'
commitment to military fami-
lies at Naval Station Mayport


is to provide a community they
are proud to call home. In
fact, all personnel, services and
facilities that were under GMH
Military Housing will remain
the same as will any construc-
tion and renovation plans.
Who is Balfour Beatty?
Balfour Beatty pIc is a world-
class engineering, construction,
services, and investment group
headquartered in London with
35,000 employees worldwide.
Balfour Beatty plc has opera-
tions involving construction and
management of a wide range of
privatization projects that direct-
ly improve the lives of people
and their communities from
schools to hospitals, highways
to railways, and water supply
systems to power generation.
Since 1909, Balfour Beatty pIc
and its affiliates, referred to as


the Balfour Beatty Group, have
continued their commitment to
customer satisfaction, first class
service, safety and a responsible
approach to the environment.
The Balfour Beatty Group
is familiar with working in
the defense/security and other
sensitive sectors in the US
and the UK. In fact, Balfour
Beatty Construction, is cur-
rently working on the 9/11
Memorial at the Pentagon and
has significant design and con-
struction contracts with various
US military entities, includ-
ing the New Campus East at
Fort Belvoir for the US Army
Corps of Engineers, the Walter
Reed National Military Medical
Center at the Naval Base in
Bethesda, Maryland, and the
new training facilities for the
US Army Corps of Engineers


at Fort Lee, Virginia. This is
in addition to Balfour Beatty
Construction's work on the
GNIH Military Housing privati-
zation projects.
Balfour Beatty Group is also
currently providing master plan-
ning, engineering, design and
design/build services for the US
Army Corps of Engineers and
Department of Veterans Affairs
for healthcare facilities in the
US, Puerto Rico and Germany.
Balfour Beatty Group has also
worked on a number of high
profile US government projects
including the US Capitol Visitor
Center in Washington, DC and
multiple National Archives and
Records Administration facili-
ties, as well as provided project
management services of border
stations for the General Services
Administration ("GSA") in


Arizona and Washington and
project management services
for the GSA of several Federal
Bureau of Investigation build-
ings.
Focus remains the same
Unlike most mergers, there
are no broad-reaching chang-
es planned at Balfour Beatty
Commumfies. Bruce Robinson,
who held the position of presi-
dent of GMH Military Housing
remains in charge at Balfour
Beatty Communities, and his
management team remains in
tact. At ground level, all the
management and staff will
remain in their positions with
no change in personnel.
In commenting on the
transaction, Bruce Robinson
stated, "The military person-
nel and families we serve can

CREDO Corner


IL


By Lt. Cmdr. Dorman
"Curt" Dowling
Spiritual Fitness Division SE/CREDO
Last night I came home from
Sticky Fingers Restaurant and
saw where someone lost con-
trol of their car and wrecked in
the median. Lately I've seen a
plethora of cars off the side of
the road after being in an acci-
dent. And last week the signal
box for the traffic lights at an
intersection near our house had
been hit (for the second time in
as many months) by some driv-
er out of control of their vehicle
creating havoc for everyone else
that day.
People don't just loose con-


trol of cars. They also loose
control of their lives in a variety
of different ways. It may be
through drinking, drugs, anger,
or spending.
Lately I've been helping a
young lady get back in control
of her spending. She had been
trying to ignore that she was
out of control by not opening
her mail. She was ignoring her
bills as if they would somehow
just go away. Funny thing is
some people really want the
money they lend out and will
go to great links to make life
miserable for those who don't
pay. She was beginning to feel
the consequential pain of out of


control spending.
Out of control driving and out
of control spending are much
the same. The moment of truth
comes when you can no long
control the spending vehicle,
whether it is the Ford Mustang
GT or the MasterCard or Visa.
That's when you find a person
in trouble; they have wrecked
along the highway or they have
wrecked their credit.
How we drive our life will
determine whether we will stay
in control. Learning what is a
need and what is a want is like
learning the difference between
the brake and the accelerator.
There are plenty of things we


need in life, but a responsible
person knows when to put on
the brakes regarding spending
on wants.
Loosing control in any aspect
of life means giving it to some-
one, or something else. It is
not assuming responsibility. It
is the convenient/pleasurable
thing to do for the moment.
Loosing control means not to
think. It means not consider-
ing the consequences that may
come. Unfortunately many of
those consequences are serious.
Some people loose control of
their anger. Rather than do the
hard work of communication,
they lash out at other people.


Whether it is a spouse or co-
worker that receives the irre-
sponsible behavior, a personal
relationship has been wrecked
or possibly destroyed.
Only you can take control of
your life. You can let others
have control, but you have to let
them. Taking control of your
life can be very hard, but taking
control of your life is freeing
and life changing.
CREDO is a place where we
have seen folks change their
lives... take control... accept
responsibility and move on with
their lives. We believe the best
way to live life is in control and
guided by God-given universal


principles. Therefore the Credo
programs are free and avail-
able to our active duty military
and their dependents, retirees
and DoD civilians. We provide
retreat programming, whether
it is a Marriage Enrichment
Retreat, or a Personal Growth
Retreat, that is safe and inviting
to work on being in control and
living a healthier life. Stop by
Building 1 across from the post
office on NS Mayport or Call

Southern Command (NAVSO)
and tactical control of Joint
Inter-Agency Task Force South
(JIATF-S). Counter-Illicit
Trafficking operations are joint
efforts designed to support par-
ticipating nation's drug control
programs.
The deployment began last
October with Cmdr. Jon Kreitz
commanding the ship. Kreitz's
18-month tour as commanding
officer ended midway through
the deployment, when Cmdr.
Dan Starling assumed command
before the ship made its way
through the Panama Canal and
into the Eastern Pacific.
"I continue to be amazed at
the broad level of cooperation
and coordination required to
successfully combat Narco-ter-
rorism," said Starling. "JIATF-S
does a terrific job at tying all
these diverse assets together,
and the foreign navies and coast
guards we've had the opportu-
nity to work with exhibit tre-
mendous professionalism."
Groves' counter-illicit traf-
ficking mission quickly began
when the crew discovered a
"go-fast" boat, believed to be
loaded with narcotics. "Go-fast"
vessels are small, multi-engine
speedboats commonly used to
transport illicit narcotics and
contraband. The ship pursued
the suspect vessel and caught up
to it. LEDET 409 conducted a
boarding and seizure operation,
resulting in the confiscation of

2,500 pounds of cocaine. Two
days later, the ship responded
to another "go-fast" threat and
seized 1,300 pounds of narcot-
ics.
In February, the ship was
tasked to search for a stealthy
self-propelled semi-submersible
(SPSS) vessel, suspected of traf-
ficking illegal drugs. LEDET


404 rapidly responded to the
situation and boarded the SPSS,
detaining several suspected traf-
fickers from the scuttled, sink-
ing vessel. An extensive search,
using the ship's SH-60B heli-
copter and Rigid-Hull Inflatable
Boat (RHIB), resulted in the
recovery of 59 bales of cocaine.
This was only the second suc-


cessful SPSS bust ever per-
formed by the U.S. Navy, and
the largest SPSS contraband
recovery to date. Two weeks
later, Groves intercepted a fish-
ing vessel and recovered 39
bales of cocaine. This was the
final bust of the deployment.

Groves extended the U. S.

UNITAS
By MC2 Riza Caparros
USS George Washington (CVN 73)
Media Department
The Atlantic phase of
UNITAS 49-08, a multinational
exercise designed to increase
the interoperability of navies
in North and South America,
ended May 2 with the closing
ceremonies in Rio de Janeiro,
Brazil.
Participants in UNITAS
included elements of the
Brazilian and Argentine
Navies as well as the George
Washington Carrier Strike
Group which includes USS
George Washington (CVN
73)(GW), Destroyer Squadron
Four Zero, Carrier Air Wing
(CVW) 17, USS Farragut (DDG
99) and USS Kauffman (FFG
59).
"UNITAS was a tremen-
dous success. The aggressive
schedule provided an excellent
opportunity to train side-by-side
with our South American part-
ners and proves that our Navies
can achieve more by working
together," said GW Operations
Officer, Cmdr. Anthony


Comes 1
Calandra.
Lt.j.g. Jacob Steele, asst.
operations and planning officer
for Destroyer Squadron 40 had
similar thoughts.
"UNITAS is about enhancing
partnerships and cooperation
between our Navies," he said.
"We're forming relationships to
ensure the security and stability
of our nations and the waters
around them."
This year's UNITAS featured
complex training scenarios from
across the spectrum of naval
operations, from anti-submarine
warfare to air defense to mari-
time interdiction operations.
UNITAS Atlantic is one of the
exercise phases of Partnership
of the Americas (POA), an
annual U.S. Southern Command
(SOUTHCOM) operation. POA
is designed to increase interop-
erability and cooperation in the
hemisphere, while developing
stronger relationships and pro-
fessional understanding between
nations.
This is the 49th year
UNITAS, which means 'unity'
in Latin, has been held. The

ly in the Atlantic and Pacific
waters around South America,
DESRON 40 Surface Sonar
Technician Senior Chief (SW)
Darren Jarvi, senior enlisted
advisor and anti-submarine
warfare officer described what
he thinks service members have
learned from their UNITAS
experience.
"Through Sailor-to-Sailor
exchanges, participating in
community relations events and
being good ambassadors, our
Sailors put words into action.
They learned about other coun-
try's cultures, abilities and tech-
nologies and showed pride in
what we do and represent."


Marine Detachment


Embarks USS Farragut


By MC2 J.T. Bolestridge
USS Farragut Publich;.
The Headquarters Element of the 4th Marine
Recon Detachment of the 24th Marines embarked
the guided-missile destroyer USS Farragut
(DDG 99) May 1 in Rio de Janeiro, in support of
Partnership of the Americas 2008 (POA 08).
The embarked Marines will conduct training
with Uruguayan marines when Farragut arrives
in Montevideo, Uruguay for a port visit. Maj.
Bill Sablan, the exchange detachment officer in
charge, explained their training is designed to
enhance security cooperation, one of the primary
goals of POA 08.
"The overall idea is to enhance the capabil-
ity sets of everyone involved in the training,"
Sablan said. "We'll take turns throughout the
training showing each other our different tactics,
techniques, and procedures. This type of face-to-
face exchange is designed to build camaraderie
between partner nations."
Mutual training will include non-combatant
evacuation operation exercises, Marine Corps


martial arts, small boat operations and small arms
weapons training.
It has been uncommon for U.S. Marines to
embark destroyers in recent years. The Navy and
Marine Corps, as well as the Coast Guard, have
recently increased their efforts to work coopera-
tively, creating more opportunities for enhanced
training and experience.
Capt. Rudy Laco, Commander, Destroyer
Squadron 40 said, "Combined U.S. Navy-Marine
Corps operations involving partner nations like
Uruguay are examples of maximizing employ-
ability and deployability for U.S. units and pro-
viding greater agility and reliability for partner
nations, while being less predictable for potential
adversaries."
POA 2008 is the third exercise by that name
and will be carried out from April until October
in Central and South America, as well as in the
Caribbean. The exercise emphasizes interoper-
ability and cooperation between U.S. and partner
nation's maritime forces through a variety of
exercises and events.


From Staff
A ceremony of remembrance
will be held at Mayport's
Memorial Park Saturday, May
17th at 10:30 a.m. to honor the
Sailors who were killed aboard
the guided-missile frigate USS
Stark (FFG 31) 21 years ago.
On May 17, 1987, while on
patrol in the Arabian Gulf, 37
Sailors died when two Iraqi mis-
siles struck USS Stark. Despite
the severe damage inflicted,
the heroic efforts of Stark's


crew saved the ship. Stark was
decommissioned at Mayport
in 1999. In order to preserve
the tradition once the ship was
retired, the Naval Order of the
United States, North Florida
Commandery, assumed sponsor-
ship for the memorial service.
Several members of the 1987
crew of Stark will attend the
service. The service will fea-
ture accounts of some of the
events that occurred following
the attack, both aboard ship and


here in Mayport, from crew and
volunteers & staff who worked
to provide information and sup-
port services to the families of
crew members.
The guest speaker for this
year's ceremony is Adm. Harry
Ulrich, a former Commanding
Officer of Stark.
Mayport's Memorial Park
was established Aug. 1, 1987,
with the dedication of the Stark
monument

USS Mclnerney Sailors Bring Fresh Water,


Project
By Lt. Kelly Chufo
USS Mclnerney PAO
USS McInerney (FFG 8)
Sailors participated in a com-
munity relations (COMREL)
project with a local Honduran
missionary group, Living Water
For Roatan, to bring fresh water
and medical supplies to people
in need in Honduras April 9.
When Mclnerney pulled into
port, its Sailors took time to
aid the community with a new
water system, providing fresh
water to over 30 homes.
After Hurricane Mitch rav-
aged mainland Honduras in
1998, many Honduran families
were left homeless. In an effort
to start over, many of them relo-
cated to the island of Roatan
and created a community called
La Colonia. Over the past 10
years, the families have built
rudimentary schools, small fruit
stands, and shelters. Many mis-
sionary groups have worked to
dig wells, build cisterns, and
provide a central place in the
village where all people can
collect fresh water for their
homes. However, the people
have a challenge to get water;
they have to walk up and down
treacherous dirt pathways with
5 gallon jugs perched precari-
ously on their shoulders.
Roatan Mayor, The Honorable
Dale Jackson, expressed his
overwhelming thanks to all the
Sailors who gave their time and

skills in such a selfless manner.
"It has been quite a few years
since a U.S. Navy ship has
visited our little island," said
Jackson. "To have the excep-
tional Sailors of USS McInerney
do what they did for the village
in such a short time is testament
to their dedication and desire to
help. They will always be wel-
comed back with open arms."
In a separate event,
McInerney Commanding
Officer, Cmdr. Keith Wheeler


led another group of McInerney
sailors, who distributed four
pallets of Project Handclasp
hygiene items, toys and medical
supplies to Clinica Esperanza, a
non-profit clinic for the villag-
ers of La Colonia.
"It is a great day for Clinica
Esperanza," said Peggy
Stranges, founder and director
of Clinica Esperanza. "Our clin-
ic was built completely from
donations, and continues to run
at a cost of $250,000 per year,

relying solely on the goodwill
of operations such as Project
Handclasp and the Sailors of

clinic to receive them."
McInerney, homeported in
Mayport, Fla., is deployed to
the U.S. Southern Command
(SOUTHCOM) area of focus


in support of Counter-Narco

tion with Joint Interagency Task
Force, South. While deployed,

Phil Sea Celebrates Chiefs' Birthday


By MCSN Ryan Steinhour
Nassau Strike Group Public. ;
Office
Chiefs aboard guided-mis-
sile cruiser USS Philippine Sea
(CG-58) celebrated the 115-
year birthday of the Chief Petty
Officer through several events
April 1.
The day started off with a run,
where Philippine Sea Chiefs
teamed up to tackle a 115 lap
run of the Philippine Sea weath-
er deck, which is approximately
a 16.5 mile run. The run sig-
nified the dedication that the
Chiefs of the Navy display
everyday.
"It's a long tradition, a long
history of Chiefs that have gone
before us," said Senior Chief
Hospital Corpsman (SW/NAC)
Robert Powell. "I feel privi-
leged to be able to take part in
this celebration."
"The most significant rea-
son to run the 115 laps, with


all the young Sailors watch-
ing us, is that each lap repre-
sented a year that Chiefs had
been serving in our Navy," said
Command Master Chief (SW/
AW) Christopher Thompson. "It
was a way to remember what
past Chiefs have done for this
country."
Throughout the day Chiefs
wore their khaki uniforms, a
uniform that sets them apart
from the other enlisted ranks.
Along with displaying their
most distinctive uniform, many
of the 28 Chiefs wanted to give
something back to the ship and
its sailors.
"The majority of the Chiefs
cycled through the food serving
line to serve the crew a special
meal," said Thompson. "We
realize that without them run-
ning a ship is impossible."
This 115 year birthday will
also be the last time that Master
Chief Fire Controlman Edward


Champagne celebrates the occa-
sion.
"This is the last celebration
I'll take part of as an active duty
Chief," said Champagne. "It's
my 201 anniversary of being a
Chief. Knowing that there is not
going to be another one tells me
that the end of the road is com-
ing up soon."
"I wanted this celebration
to be symbolic of his 30 years
of service," said Thompson.
"I wanted the Philippine Sea
sailors to see what a great
American, and what a great
Chief Master Chief Champagne
is."
Philippine Sea is currently
deployed with the Nassau Strike
Group to the Navy's 5th Fleet

HSL-46
From HSL-46
The "Grandmasters" of HSL-
46 celebrated has their 20th anni-
versary on April 7, 2008. Three
days later, on April 10, official
celebrations were held on Naval
Station Mayport.
Festivities began when
Current Commanding Officer
Chris Dennis welcomed all
past and present Grandmasters
back to Mayport in a Hangar
Celebration. More than 300
guests were in attendance. Of
those guests several past com-
manding officers were in
attendance, including HSL-
46's first XO, and second
Skipper William T. Boone,
Former HSLWL Commodore
Gregory W. Hoffman, the first
Grandmaster Admiral Townsend
G. Alexander, former CO of
NS Mayport Charles P. King,
Richard P. Snyder, Carl F. Bush,
and Charles E. Litchfield. Also
in attendance were all current
Grandmasters that keep HSL-46
running each day.
Following remarks
from Dennis, Capt. Glenn
Doyle, Commodore of
HSMWINGLANT, presented
the Aircrew of Cutlass 462 with
the NHA Region Three Aircrew
(Embarked) of the Year award.
Crew members included Lt.


'Grand
Cmdr. Wade Harris, Lt. Phil
Hoblet and Aviation Warfare
Systems Operator 2nd Class
Preston Nicholas.
Cutlass 462 earned this
award due to its extraordi-
nary performance during
their recent Counter Narco-
Terrorism deployment in 2007.
Detachment Three became
the first HSMWL active duty
detachment to qualify with the
Coast Guard in Airborne Use of
Force (AUF).
The citation read, "For sus-
tained superior performance

submarine Squadron Light

(FFG 8) on 2 January 2007.
The crew of Cutlass 462 dem-
onstrated professional airman-
ship and tactical prowess in
their prosecution of intelligence
and capture of 2.2 metric tons
of illicit narcotics. This suc-
cessful mission was directly
responsible for the success of
the Joint Inter-Agency Task

HSL-46 PAO
It was business as usual for
the Grandmasters of HSL-46
until the phone rang. During
the call, the Operations offi-
cer learned a Sailor on board
USS Gettysburg CG-64 needed
urgent medical attention after
suffering a possible stroke.
USS Gettysburg was well off
the coast of Mayport and a heli-
copter MEDEVAC was the only
viable option for the Sailor who
suffered a possible stroke. As
the call ended, the Grandmasters
sprang into action.
Many things had to happen
quickly in order to get Rescue
472 in the air to pick up the
Sailor in critical condition.
It was a team effort between
HSL-46, the USS Gettysburg,
and Shands Healthcare Center.
Lt. Tim Aja, Lt. Tim Metcalf,
and Aviation Warfare Systems
Operator 2nd Class Martin
Roman volunteered for the mis-

change other than our name.
Our commitment to our resi-
dents is a strong as ever, and
we will continue to provide the
same quality housing and ser-
vice. The entire staff at Naval
Station Mayport will continue
to be the day to day contact for
residents, and all of our current
policies, leases and procedures
will remain the same."
Robinson continued, "Balfour

focused on its core business -

preflight brief, numerous people
helped to get the aircraft ready.
Lt. Otto Cochran reviewed all
aircraft performance and fuel
needs, while Lt.j.g. Dylan Beyer
gathered all essential navigation
materials. Lt. Cmdr. Tom Foster
and Lt. Phil Krites conducted
a preflight and spun up Rescue
472, then hotseated it to the
rescue crew. The maintenance
crew, who ensured the aircraft
was safe for flight, consisted
of Chief Aviation Machinist's
Mate Jose Camacho, Aviation
Electronics Technician 2nd Class
Jeffery Chinn, and Aviation
Electrician's Mate 2nd Class
Brian Matthews.
Forty-five minutes after
Rescue 472 launched, the
patient and a Corpsman from

In addition to the Aircrew of
the Year award, former com-
manding officer and Wing
Commodore G.W. Hoffman,
who is currently employed by
Sikorsky Aircraft Corp., pre-
sented Dennis with the Golden
Wrench Award.
It was a fun filled weekend
for all Grandmasters. A Hangar
Celebration, Bowling Outing,
Social Hour, Golf Tournament
at North Hampton golf club,
and Dining Out were held dur-
ing the Anniversary Celebration.
Most importantly, the anniver-
sary reunited squadron mates
and allowed for introductions of
the newest members.
Throughout their 20-year his-
tory, the Grandmasters have
established themselves as the
"go to" LAMPS squadron on

short history, the Grandmasters
have flown more than 149,000

Vicksburg's Victory Grill Keeps Crew Happy


By Lt.j.g Matthew Dryden
USS Vicksburg Fire Control Officer
Every Monday, Wednesday,
and Friday, your nose can pick
up the tantalizing smell of
smoldering charcoal, simmer-
ing burgers, and ballpark franks
near the end of Foxtrot pier. It's
all due to a USS Vicksburg (CG
69) MWR initiative called the
"Victory Grill."
During Vicksburg's three-
month maintenance availabil-
ity, officers, chiefs and crew-
members are selling burgers,
dogs, chips and sodas to fellow
shipmates and contractors as an
alternative to cold sandwiches
or warmed-up leftovers.
"So far things have been
very successful and we've had
a lot of positive reaction from
the shipyard workers," says
STGC(SW) John Simpson, as
he throws some cheese onto a
flame-broiled hamburger. "The
word is even spreading down
the pier to some of the other
ships' workers and crewmem-
bers!"
The Victory Grill has also
proven to be a great way of

Specialist2"n Class (SW) Daniel Halladay.


beefing up Vicksburg's MWR
funds, which are then used to
support many of the great pro-
grams offered to Sailors, includ-
ing the Single Sailor Program.
The Single Sailor Program is
designed to provide positive
and alcohol-free alternatives for
Vicksburg's younger Sailors.
The money raised from


the Victory Grill will also go
towards the purchase of new
equipment and jerseys for
Vicksburg's sports teams, pro-
viding camaraderie and off-duty
physical activities for the entire
crew.
Vicksburg will remain in the
maintenance availability until
early July.

Do You Know The Power of A Power of Attorney?


By Lt. Candice C. Albright,
JAGC, USN
RLSO SE
One of the most popular
documents generated by Navy
Legal Assistance offices is
the Power of Attorney (POA).
Numerous clients come to our
offices seeking this document,
with the best of intentions to
plan ahead for the future, either
for a deployment, a permanent
change of station, or because of
health issues. It is important to
make sure your family, property
and finances are in good hands
while you are unable to manage
these affairs yourself. While a
POA can be a useful tool, it can
be a misused tool. Preventing
the abuse of a POA is up to you.


There are two types of POAs:
general and special. If you give
your agent a general power of
attorney, you have authorized
that person to do almost any-
thing you could do yourself.
For example, this list of autho-
rized activities includes the
ability to pay bills, open a new
credit card, or sign your name
to a contract. Your local Legal
Assistance office should ask
you questions to ensure that you
understand the importance of
the document and that you do
indeed intend to grant the broad
powers found in such a docu-
ment.
The special POA is your other
option. This type of document
is strict in its language and


authorizes your agent to do only
a specific act or handle a spe-
cific matter. Examples include
special POAs to use and reg-
ister your car or to ship your
household goods. The special
POA is shorter and clearly lim-
its what the agent can do. There
are a variety of special POAs
that cover common needs and
situations.
Why grant a special POA,
rather than a general POA?
Because our offices have seen
first hand too many cases where
general POAs were abused
by an agent that the grantor
thought they could trust. This
abuse often results from the
grantor exercising author-
ity well beyond the expecta-


tions and the intentions of the
grantor-servicemember. Classic
examples of abuse of a POA
involve the purchase of a large
ticket item not planned for in
the family budget. Another
example of abuse would be the
angry spouse using the gener-
al POA to clean out the bank
account before leaving the ser-
vicemember. Such abuse of
these documents is especially
tempting to the agent with poor
credit who can use the POA to
get a co-singer on a loan for
which individually, and without
the help of a cosigner, the attor-
ney-in-fact would not qualify.
The result of this scenario is
that the servicemember is then
financially liable on the loan if


the agent defaults. Of course,
you cannot rely on businesses or
organizations to screen out such
abuse when a POA is presented.
They have no obligation to do
so. The responsibility is yours
to ensure that the individual to
whom you grant a POA is trust-
worthy.
If you are considering grant-
ing a POA, we encourage you to
discuss your options with your
local legal assistance office.
We all trust our spouses, fam-
ily members and friends to act
in our best interest, however,
sometimes they may not do so.
The old saying is true here: an
ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure.

n St. Johns River Drip By Drip


By Scott Dombrowsky
NS Mayport Environmental
You may never dream of
dumping oil into the St. Johns
River, but let oil continue to
leak or drip from your vehicle
and that is exactly what is hap-
pening. Likewise, if you con-
tinue to operate equipment with
leaky hydraulic hoses and fit-
tings, you might as well pour
it into Sherman Creek or Lake
Wonderwood.
All storm drains aboard Naval
Station Mayport either dis-
charge directly to the River or
discharge to other water bodies
that eventually flow to the St.

Metabolic

Syndrome

Can Lead

To Diabetes
By Maj. Karen E. Fauber
DeCA dietitian
Have you been told by your
doctor that you have metabolic
syndrome, also known as insulin
resistance syndrome? As many
as 47 million Americans have
this common medical condition
that often leads to developing
full-blown diabetes. Other dis-
eases that can occur due to this
syndrome include heart disease
and stroke. Metabolic syndrome
happens in the body when cells
are not able to use insulin.
If you have three or more of
the following conditions you
are at risk for having metabolic
syndrome. However, having any
of these conditions increases
your risk of developing meta-
bolic syndrome at some time in
your life:
*Waist circumference greater
than 40 inches for men or 35
inches for women
*High blood pressure
*Fasting blood sugar more
than 110 milligrams/deciliter
*Triglycerides (fat in the
bloodstream) of 150 or greater
*High-density lipoprotein
level, also know as HDL or
good cholesterol, of less than
40 in men or less than 50 in
women
To prevent and treat metabol-
ic syndrome:
*Increase your physical
activity to 30 to 60 minutes a
day. This can help with losing
weight, lowering and control-
ling blood sugar and increasing
your high-density lipoprotein
levels.
*Eat more fruits and vegeta-
bles. Half your lunch and dinner
plate needs to contain vegeta-
bles. These can be purchased at
your commissary with savings
up to 30 percent. For ideas on
how to get more fruits and veg-
etables in your diet, check out
www.fruitsandveggiesmorem-
atters.org for delicious recipes
and shopping tips to use at your
commissary.
*Buy lean meats such as
chicken, fish, lean beef and lean
pork to help lower the amount
of saturated fat in your diet.
They're all in the meat case
at your local commissary at
unbeatable savings of up to 30
percent or more.
*Control your portion sizes
to help lose weight. Stay away
from the all-you- can-eat buf-
fets. If you have to eat at the
buffets, load up on vegetables
and choose low-calorie salad
dressing for your salad.
See you in the commissary!

betes or other nutrition topics,

Johns. Like most storm drain
systems, there is no treatment
here to remove oil from storm-
water before it enters the River.
Oil that drips from vehicles
onto roads and parking lots is
a huge problem for rivers and
streams in urban areas. In a
recent study by the Washington
State Department of Ecology,
it was found that each year the
Puget Sound area is subjected
to an oil spill equivalent to
more than half of that spilled
by the Exxon Valdez in Alaska.
It goes unnoticed however
because it happens drip by drip.
Nationwide, it has been esti-


$ o

MILI REAT


mated that Americans spill 180
million gallons of used oil each
year into our waters. This is 16
times the amount spilled by the
Exxon Valdez. One gallon of
spilled oil can contaminate one
million gallons of fresh water.
While the constant trickle
of oil leaked from vehicles is
nowhere near as striking as a
major oil spill, researchers have
determined that even small
amounts of oil can cause long-
term damage to fish and other
aquatic wildlife.
What can you do to help solve
this problem? Just as oil pollu-
tion grows one drop at a time,


so too we can make a difference
one person at a time. Here are
some suggestions:
*Do not dispose of used oil
or other vehicle fluids in storm
sewers or drains.
*Use a funnel when filling
fluids in vehicles and other
equipment.


*Check for oil leaks regularly
and fix them promptly.
*Use drip pans under leaky
vehicles and equipment until
they are fixed.
*Immediately clean up any oil
that is spilled onto the ground.
*Recycle used vehicle fluids
at designated recycling centers.


For a list of retailers who will
accept used oil from residents,
go to www.coj.net and search
on key words "used oil".
Please remember, when your
car is leaking oil on the street,
it's not just leaking oil on the
street. Stop the drips!

Management, FFSC
What does anger do for you?
Communicate for you? Keep
people at a safe distance from
you? Keep you in charge? For
many people, anger serves them
many uses, but all too often,
it is at a high cost... usually of
relationships, unhappiness in
the workplace, and a general
feeling of disdain. If you want
to be able to break out of the
"get angry/get even" syndrome,
come to this class. Participants
learn how anger and judgment
are related, about irrational
beliefs and faulty self-talk, what
"E + R = 0" means, and the
roles of stress and forgiveness
in anger.

"We are targeting moms this
month, Child Abuse Prevention
month, offering them different
activities teaching them how
to de-stress," said Jaye Meyer,
new parent support specialist at
the FFSC. "We want them to be
healthy mentally and physically,
so they can be a better parent."
The day ended with touch
therapy and a hope, wishes and
dreams exercise.
"I think this was amazing that
the Fleet and Family Service
Center did this," said Debbie
Taylor: wife of a Sailor on USS
The Sullivans (DDG 68). "They
definitely don't get as much
credit as they deserve."

May 30, 9 a.m.-noon, What
About the Kids?, FFSC
Children who witness fam-
ily violence are often forgot-
ten as the unintended victims.
A wide range of child adjust-
ment problems has been found
to be associated with exposure
to domestic violence. Parent's
need to see and understand the
effects of domestic violence
on children as encompass-
ing behavior, emotion, devel-
opment and socialization. The
purpose of this program is not
to shame parents for events
that have already happen, but
to instill hope that things can
change. The knowledge that the
violence, which many parents
incorrectly believe is unseen
by their children, is negative-
ly impacting their children's
growth and development.

10 Tips For Staying Motivated Toward Fitness


From Health Promotion by the Ocean
Naval Branch Health Clinic
Mayport Health Promotion
recognizes May as National
Physical Fitness and Sports
Month. But, do you have trou-
ble staying motivated? Here
are some tips for sticking with
your exercise program offered
by the Mayo Clinic:
1. Set Goals. Start with simple
goals and then progress to lon-
ger goals. Remember to make
your goals realistic and achiev-
able. If you haven't exercised
in a while, a short-term goal
might be to work out for five
minutes once or twice a day.
An intermediate goal might
be to walk 20 minutes three or
four times a week. A long-term
goal might be to complete a 5K
walk.


2.Start slowly. If you push
yourself too hard at first, you
may be more likely to abandon
your program because of pain
or injury. It is better to start
slowly and progress gradually.
3.Think variety. Vary your
activities to keep boredom at
bay. Alternate walking or bik-
ing with swimming or a low-
impact aerobics class. When
the weather cooperates, do your
flexibility or stretching exer-


cises outside. Play soccer with
your kids. Join a health club or
martial arts center to broaden
your access to different forms
of exercise.
4.Have fun. You're more
likely to stick with an exercise
program if you're having fun.
If you're not enjoying your
workouts, try something differ-
ent. Join a volleyball or soft-
ball league. Take a ballroom
dancing class. Trade your


running shoes for a swimsuit.
Remember, exercise doesn't
have to be a drudgery.
5.Make physical activity
part of your daily routine. If
it's hard to find time for exer-
cise, don't fall back on excus-
es. Schedule workouts as you
would any other important
activity. You can also slip in
physical activity throughout the
day. Be creative! Take a walk
during your child's music les-
son. Take the stairs instead of
the elevator at work. Pedal a
stationary bike or do strength
training exercises with resis-
tance tubing while you watch
TV at night.
6.Put it on paper. Are you
hoping to lose weight? Boost
your energy? Sleep better?
Manage a chronic condition?


Write it down! Seeing the bene-
fits of regular exercise on paper
may help you stay motivated.
7.Seek support. You're not
in this alone. Invite a friend
or co-worker to join you when
you exercise. Work out with
your spouse or your kids. Take
a class at a local fitness center.
8.Track your progress. It
may help to keep an exercise
diary. Record what you did dur-
ing each exercise session, how
long you exercised and how
you felt afterward. Recording
your efforts can help you work
toward your goals and remind
you that you're making prog-
ress.
9.Reward yourself. After
each exercise session, take a
few minutes to sit down and
relax. Reflect on what you've


just accomplished. Savor the
good feelings that exercise
gives you. This type of inter-
nal reward can help you make a
long-term commitment to regu-
lar exercise. External rewards
can help, too. When you reach
a longer range goal, treat your-
self to a new pair of walking
shoes or new tunes to enjoy
while you exercise.
10.Be flexible. If you're
too busy to work out or simply
don't feel up to it, take a day or
two off. Be gentle with yourself
if you need a break. The impor-
tant thing is to get back on track
as soon as you can.
Remember to recognize
physical fitness and sports as
an important component to you
daily life throughout the entire
year!


DVDs Address Deployment Issues For Military Kids


From TRICARE
Military pediatricians and
youth professionals developed
DVDs to help military children
understand and deal with the
emotions related to a family
member's deployment.
The United States Army
Medical Command and
the American Academy of
Pediatrics produced "Military
Youth Coping with Separation:
When Family Members
Deploy," to address a variety
of deployment-related concerns
for teens. For elementary age
children there is a, "Mr. Poe
and Friends Discuss Reunion
After Deployment" DVD. The
animated host, Mr. Poe, men-


tors and provides guidance to
children and family members as
they discuss deployment.
Maj. Keith Lemmon, an
Army pediatrician and adoles-
cent medicine subspecialist,
first became aware of the need
for more support for deployed
families when he was sent to
Afghanistan in 2002. The expe-
riences of Maj. Lemmon and
his family during his deploy-
ment inspired him to address
the affects of deployment on
adolescents. His wife, a teach-
er, suffered with situational
depression and his son's behav-
ior changed negatively. While
"Military Youth Coping with
Separation" tackles numerous


issues teens face during deploy-
ment including fear of injury
or death, stress brought about
by changes in the home, it also
offers coping techniques for
dealing with the absence of a
parent or loved one.
"Our goal is to reduce the
anxiety and fear surround-
ing a military deployment, and
let children know they are not
alone in the struggles their fam-
ilies are facing," said Lemmon.
Lemmon decided to make the
DVD peer to peer, with teenag-
ers relating their own deploy-
ment-related stories and offering
advice. "We know adolescents
are more comfortable discuss-
ing these kinds of emotional


issues with each other rather
than adults," Lemmon said.
Cameron Lucke, a teen whose
family experienced deployment,
guides viewers through candid
interviews with other military
teens. The interviews capture
true feelings and coping strat-
egies of military youth. Teens
interviewed advise their peers
to listen to the deployed parent
rather than the media or to avoid
watching the news completely.
They also encouraged others
facing the same issues to speak


to someone. Recommended
sources of support are fam-
ily members, friends or trusted
adults, such as a teacher or their
doctor.
For younger children, "Mr.
Poe and Friends," uses cartoon
characters to talk about deploy-
ment issues. The animated host,
Mr. Poe, interacts with fami-
lies at the airport as they await
the return of their deployed
loved ones. The video features
the voices of real military chil-
dren, parents, and youth serving


professionals who have experi-
enced deployment.
Both videos are available for
online viewing on the American
Academy of Pediatrics
Deployment Support Web site at
www.aap.org/sections/unifserv/
deployment/index. htm. They
are also available for order-
ing, in DVD format, through
Military One Source at 1-800-
342-9647 or http://www.mili-

Health Care Options Expanded


For Active
From TRICARE
TRICARE Management
Activity (TMA) has directed
the TRICARE Global Remote
Overseas (TGRO) contractor,
International SOS, to assist
Active Duty Service Members
(ADSMs) with emergency and
urgent care needs even if they
are in the vicinity of Military
Treatment Facilities (MTFs)
overseas.
Previously, if an ADSM need-
ed urgent care and they were
within 40 miles or an hour's
drive of an MTF, that was the
only option. Urgent care is
medical attention for a condi-
tion that, while not life or limb
threatening, could become more
serious if not treated.
"The expanded cover-
age closes the gap for service
members who need immediate
medical assistance, particularly
during late evening and early
morning hours when overseas
MTFs may be less than fully
staffed," said Army Maj. Gen.
