Mayport Beach

Cleanup Set
Naval Station Mayport is
looking for volunteers to par-
ticipate in this year's Ocean
Conservancy's International
Coastal Cleanup. The clean
up is a year-round endeavor
to keep oceans free from trash
and safer for people and ani-
mals. On the third Saturday
in September each year, the
International Coastal Cleanup
provides a direct and tan-
gible way for individuals to
make a difference for one of
the largest problems, trash in
the ocean. In support of this,
on Sept. 20, Mayport volun-
teers will meet at the Jetties
Pavilion #3, the eastern-most
covered pavilion, across from
Pelican Roost RV Park. The
event will be held from 8-11
a.m. Plastic trash bags and
rubber gloves will be pro-
vided. For more information,
go to: www.coastalcleanup.
org. or contact Naval Station
Mayport Water Program
Manager, Scott Dombrosky at
270-6730, ext. 211.

Center's group exercise room.
Mayport's active duty, depen-
dents and retirees have all
been cashing in on the ben-
efits of this program. Zumba

Mayport Navy Fitness Team
will be hosting a Zumba party
on Sept. 25 at 11:30 a.m. at
the Mayport Gymnasium
Basketball Court 1. Come
see what Zumba is all about.


Is Your Command
Up To Challenge?
Commands should be
gearing up now and making
plans for the 2008 MWR Fall
Sports Challenge on Oct. 8-
9. USS Underwood won the
Spring Sports Challenge.
Can your command take the
title away from them? The
two-day event is filled with
19 challenges, including the
CO/CMC canoe challenge
and the Tug-o-War. This is a
great way for commands to
build teamwork and morale.
For more information, call
MWR Sports Coordinator
Rita Hammerstad at 270-5451
to put your team on the roster.

From Staff
Naval Station Mayport and
tenant commands were on hand
Sept. 3 to mark the official
turn over of the base's new-
est Bachelor Enlisted Quarters
(BEQ) #2234.
Designed in the new "Market
Style," BEQ that will be home
to 312 single Sailors aboard
Naval Station Mayport. Market
style apartments are similar to
college dormitories with two
bedrooms, two baths, a full
kitchen, full-size washer/dryer
laundry room and living/dining
area for up to four people in
each apartment. There is also
a public visitor's space, public
vending area, public toilets, jan-
itor closet, storage closet, and
building manager's office.
"How great is this, that we
can tell today's Sailor this
is where you're going to live
in port.," said NS Mayport
Commanding Officer Capt.
Aaron L. Bowman. "You take
a Sailor straight out of high
school and put him in beach-
front property. These are geared
towards E-4 Sailors with less
than four years, single
"The new market style bar-
racks are equivalent to a private
sector civilian condominium
or apartment complex," said
Naval Station Mayport Housing
Installation Program Manager
Gail Washburn.
The new BEQ will provide
plenty of housing for the young-
er Sailors who have four years
or less service (E-4 equivalent)
that are homeported/stationed at
Naval Station Mayport.
"This will be nice housing
for the young Sailors that are
not entitled to Basic Housing
Allowance," according to
Washburn.
It is also a gree facility with
energy efficient operations and
appliances, according to Capt.
Wiliam Vaughan of Public

Works.
The Chief of Naval
Operations (CNO) goal is to
have all ship board Sailors off
the ship for enhanced quality of
life by 2010. With the comple-
tion of the new BEQ, Mayport
is way ahead of the game.
"Moving the Sailors off the
ship while in port and into the


new barracks will provide them
more privacy and amenities,"
claims Washburn.
The project also provided
new parking, paving, landscap-
ing and antiterrorism force pro-
tection features.

Ombudsman


Thanked At


Special Lunch


By MC3 Patrick Cook
FLTPACEN SE
Thirty-eight Mayport
ombudsmen were honored Sept.
4 at the annual Ombudsman
Appreciation Luncheon aboard
Naval Station Mayport.
"The luncheon is an opportu-
nity to show appreciation to the
38 ombudsmen that encompass
Mayport," said Sam Rayburn,
Mayport's base ombudsman
coordinator. The program
is vital to the welfare of the
Command's family by provid-
ing a direct link between fami-
lies and the Command.
Invited as the keynote speak-
er at the luncheon was Jennie
Blaylock, a co-anchor for First
Coast News in Jacksonville.
"Over the years I've met with
many ombudsmen and in talk-
ing with them I understand the


critical role they play in help-
ing Navy families flourish,"
said Blaylock. "I (previously)
spoke with two women who
were new to this base and they
told me how their ombudsman
was more than a guardian angel,
giving them practical help and
advice that they couldn't have
adjusted without."
In attendance were ombuds-
men from wing, ship and shore
commands who were com-
mended for their hard work and
support of the warfighter readi-
ness mission by the Sailors they
volunteer for.
Navy Family Ombudsmen are
a group of extremely dedicated
volunteers who are trained to
assist Navy families success-
fully navigate the challenges of
the Navy lifestyle.

Once again everyone rolled
up their sleeves and made us
ready last week when Tropical
Storm Hanna looked like she
was going to knock on our
door. Thankfully, we avoided
that one, but we are not out of
the woods yet, and there is still
plenty of hurricane season left
and Ike and Josephine are on
the move. Stay prepared, and
make sure your home hurri-
cane kits are good to go, and a
plan for evacuation is in place.
Thanks again to everyone for
keeping the station ready.

Ombudsmen are really the con-

Help Keep Rabies Under


Control, Vaccinate


By MC2(AW/SW)
Marcel A. Barbeau
Navy Region Southeast Public. ;
More than 50 years ago,
rabies caused more than 100
deaths a year in the United
States. Due to vaccinations for
domestic animals, that num-
ber has declined to only two or
three a year. However, contin-
ued awareness is always neces-
sary to ensure no one becomes
part of those statistics.
According to the Center for
Disease Control and Prevention
in Atlanta, wild animals account
for 92 percent of rabies cases
reported in the United States.
The most common carriers for
rabies are raccoons at the top
of the list followed by bats,
skunks and foxes. Though these
animals can look cute and cud-
dly from afar, it can be danger-
ous to interact with them.
"People need to understand
you shouldn't touch wild ani-
mals such as raccoons and
foxes," said Army Specialist
Samantha Scholle, an animal
care specialist stationed aboard
Naval Air Station Jacksonville,
Fla. "If you get bit by an ani-
mal and it has rabies, it can pass
the disease to you and can kill
you if it's not caught early."
Scholle says it's just as
important to protect your pets


Jewish High

Celebration
From Base Chapel
Jewish Sailors and Marines
are invited to the Congregation
Abavath Chesed to join Rabbi
Joshua Lief, Senior Rabbi of
the Temple, for the Jewish High
Holy Days. Additionally, many
of the congregational families
have made room at their tables
offering them home cooked fes-
tival meals.
The Jewish High Holy Days
are a start with Rosh Hashanah
until the end of Yom Kippur.
This is a time Jews spend in


from the disease as yourself.
"It's also important to remem-
ber to vaccinate your pets and
don't let them go near wild or
stray animals," said Scholl.
"Wild animals do carry diseases
and if your pets aren't vaccinat-
ed then they can pick up those
diseases, too."
According to Hospital
Corpsman Second Class Ivan
Oliver, a preventative medicine
technician at Naval Hospital
Jacksonville, you should take
appropriate actions if an animal
bites you.
"It's a very serious disease,"
said Oliver. "If you get bit, you
want to make sure you wash the
wound where you were bitten
with soap and water, and get to
your local emergency room as
soon as possible. Rabies can
cause death if it goes untreat-
ed."
In an animal, early symp-
toms may include change in the
tone of a dog's bark (in dogs),
chewing at the site of the bite,
fever, loss of appetite, and sub-
tle changes in behavior. As the
disease progresses, symptoms
may include erratic behavior,
episodes of aggression, anxi-
ety, irritability, restlessness,
seizures, and in the final phase
of the disease, foaming at the
mouth and paralysis of the jaw


SHoly Days

Planned
penitent self-examination and
communal celebration. This
year Rosh Hashanah, the cel-
ebration of the New Year, will
begin on Sept. 29. Yom Kippur,
the Day of Atonement, will
begin on Oct. 8.
Jewish Sailors and Marines
willing to participate can
contact Goldie Lansky, the
Temple's Executive Director at
733-7078. She will assist any-
one who wants to participate
with arrangements.

and throat. Although a change
of behavior is usually the first
sign, pet owners should be
aware this can occur for reasons
other than rabies, such as diges-
tive disorders or poisoning.
The rabies virus is almost
always transmitted by the bite
of an infected animal. In peo-
ple, early symptoms of rabies
resemble that of the flu. A per-
son may feel feverish, have a
headache, and feel fatigued. If
a person goes untreated symp-
toms may worsen to insom-
nia, anxiety, confusion, partial
paralysis, hallucination, agita-
tion, hyper-salivation, difficulty
swallowing, and a fear of water.
Although the statistics for
the United States are very low,
rabies accounts for 55,000
deaths world-wide. No one
wants to become part of those
statistics. It's important to vac-
cinate your pets and never inter-
act with wildlife. They may
seem cute and cuddly from afar,
but they are considered wild for
a reason.

Chapel Holds PREP Classes


To Strengthen Marriages


From Base Chapel
Naval Station Mayport Chapel will offer
"Prevention and Relationship Enhancement
Program" (PREP) monthly for active duty and
their spouses.
The PREP approach is a two-day marriage
workshop based on training engaged and married
couples in developing communication skills such
as "talking without fighting," solving problems as
a team, maintaining a sensual/sexual relationship
as well as working through forgiveness when its
not easy.
"In the military, we train for our jobs, plan for
the unexpected, and even take GMTs to prepare
us for other tasks," said Chaplain Rita R. Love.
"Yet, even though it is part of the basic institu-
tions of life, many of us enter marriage with no
preparation whatsoever."
And the lack of good preparation has been cited
as a significant factor in today's high divorce rate,
which is at 50 percent. It is also a factor in the
mission readiness of our Sailors.
PREP is geared towards "training couples" not
counseling. The couples employ techniques to
enhance their marriage and prepare to deal with


the inevitable conflict that will happen in any
relationship.
The number one predictor of marital success
is how well a couple handles conflict. If a cou-
ple handles conflict in a constructive manner
they will continue to move towards a happy and
healthy marriage. However, if a couple handles
conflict in a destructive manner they will likely
divorce.
Another important purpose of marriage prepa-
ration is its impact on the mission readiness of
married Sailors. The skills learned in the work-
shop are transferable; particularly the managing
of conflict, commitment, and expectations just to
name a few. Chaplains and marriage counselors
agree that couples trained in these skills are better
prepared for a successful marriage and further-
more will have a positive impact on the mission
readiness of our Sailors.
Chaplain Tanner with DESRON-14 Operational
Ministry Center will help kick-off the work-
shop on September 25 to 26 at the base chapel.
Couples are asked to contact Chaplain Love at
(902) 270-5212 to register by Sept. 19.

Potential Price


of Friendship:


Vicarious Liability


By Thomas E. Wallace
RLSO
In the Navy, military training
teaches us many things. The
military teaches us a rating and
the discipline to achieve our
goals, whatever they may be.
The Navy also teaches us to be
a "good shipmate." We have all
heard that term and have tried
to live by that credo. However,
in some instances, acting like a
"good shipmate" can be costly.
This is not an article suggest-
ing that we should not be good
shipmates. Rather, it is an arti-
cle suggesting that we should
all be careful about the actions
we take. This is especially true
when we lend potentially dan-
gerous equipment to a fellow
servicemember or family mem-
ber.
The theory of vicarious liabil-
ity is the concept in which an
individual can be held legally
responsible for the wrong-
ful conduct of another party.
Under this concept of liabil-
ity in the law is what many
states call the "Dangerous
Instrumentality Doctrine." This
doctrine is most often applied to
motor vehicles, but it could be
applied to any potentially dan-
gerous object. Some examples
are guns, airplanes, motorcycles
or other items or machines that
if operated incorrectly, could
cause harm.
Under the "Dangerous
Instrumentality Doctrine" as
it applies to automobiles, the
owner of a vehicle may be
found to be responsible for
damages to a third party if the


owner entrusted another person
to use that vehicle, and the per-
son to whom the vehicle was
entrusted improperly or negli-
gently operated the motor vehi-
cle and caused injury or prop-
erty damage to the third party.
This fact pattern should sound
familiar. Our legal assistance
offices regularly assist clients
who, in the interest of being a
"good shipmate," have lent their
automobile or motorcycle to a
fellow crewmember, and that
crewmember became involved
in an accident while operating
the automobile or motorcycle.
Usually this fact pattern has the
additional fact that there was
inadequate or no insurance on
the vehicle and that a third party
was injured or suffered some
sort of damages. The owner of
the vehicle in these cases could
be subject to a lawsuit for dam-
ages under these theories of
liability.
There are some defenses that
many states recognize under
the "Dangerous Instrumentality
Doctrine." For example, if your
vehicle is stolen from you and
the thief gets in an accident
while escaping and causes inju-
ry or damage, most states will
excuse the vehicle owner from
liability. If you have questions
about how such laws in your
location work, please contact
your local legal assistance office
at 270-5445 ext. 3017 and make
an appointment. Please note
that this article is not meant to
be the substitute for the advice
of a competent lawyer in the
jurisdiction in which you live.

USS Vicksburg Achieves


Surface Fire Support Milestone


By Ensign Ben Milton
USS Vicksburg Strike Officer
USS Vicksburg hosted a four-
man team from Expeditionary
Warfare Training Group Atlantic
(EWTGLANT) onboard this
past week and completed their
Naval Surface Fire Support
(NSFS) firing qualifications.
NSFS is a role typically per-
formed by surface ships with
major caliber gun systems in
direct support of an amphibious
landing force. Due to the inher-
ent dangers of firing into an area
on land where friendly spot-
ters and troops may be located,
Mayport-based cruisers and
destroyers are required to obtain
and demonstrate a certain level
of NSFS proficiency before
they are allowed to execute fire
missions inside an Amphibious
Objective Area (AOA).
Normal employment for the
MK86 5" Gun Weapon System
aboard a Cruiser is as simple as
detecting a track on radar, devel-
oping a fire solution via com-
puter, and then firing the main
batteries on target. Shooting
NSFS missions is much more
involved, utilizing grid refer-
ences, altitudes, and GPS posi-
tions that must be provided by
a spotter ashore to a NSFS team
on the firing ship.
The NSFS team then plots the
position, trains the main bat-
teries on the target, and fires
when ordered. The Navy no
longer maintains a land-based
firing range on the east coast, so
Atlantic Fleet ships now conduct
their firing qualification runs
using the Integrated Maritime
Portable Acoustic Scoring and

USS Vicksburg's NSFS team stands in front of the forward 5-inch gun. USS Vicksburg recently
received a 95.8 percent overall scorefor their evaluatedfiring missions.


Simulation (IMPASS) system
provided by EWTGLANT
The IMPASS system uti-
lizes a combination of unique
GPS-equipped buoys and sonar
equipment to provide ships with
a synthetic land mass to fire
upon. After rounds are fired,
the buoys detect the explosions
and a computer determines the
accuracy of the mission before
assigning a final score.
Evaluated firing missions
included Area Target, Danger
Close, Refire, Coordinated


Illumination, Countermech
Series (simulated tanks
ashore), and the Suppression of
Enemy Air Defenses (SEAD).
Vicksburg's NSFS team was
graded on firing accuracy,
teamwork, radio communica-
tions and efficiency, and in the
end posted an overall score of
95.8 percent, placing them well
above the Cruiser class average.
"We've put in a lot of time
and effort into our training,
and today it paid off," said Fire


Controlman 3rd Class Steven
Smith, one of Vicksburg's
5 inch gun operators. "I'm
extremely proud of being on
this team. Besides, any time
you get a chance to put more
than ten rounds down range,
you know you're having a great
day!"
USS Vicksburg is assigned
to Commander, Carrier Strike
Group Eight and will deploy
as part of the USS Eisenhower
(CVN 69) Strike Group.


Groundbreaking

For New National


Cemetery At Jax


From Staff
The Department of Veterans
Affairs (VA) announced the
Jacksonville VA National
Cemetery groundbreaking
ceremony will take place
Sept. 21 at 2 p.m. Cemetery
Director Arleen Vincenty said
Navy Band Southeast will
perform for local veterans,
city and state officials, and
dignitaries from Washington
D.C.
The new cemetery is
north of the Jacksonville
International Airport and
approximately five miles from
Interstate 295 on 569 acres
acquired from the city. The
cemetery will serve 189,000
veterans in the northeast-
ern Florida and southeastern
Georgia region.
Vincenty explained, "The
initial Phase 1-A construction
effort now underway focus-
es on a 15-acre early burial
area with temporary facilities.
When Phase 1-B is complet-
ed, the 52-acre Phase 1 devel-
opment will provide 7,500
full casket gravesites, includ-
ing 7,200 pre-placed crypts,
5,000 in-ground cremation
sites and 4,500 columbarium
niches for cremated remains."
She said Phase 1 infrastruc-
ture construction consists of
roadways, an entrance area,
an administration and public
information center, a mainte-
nance complex, a flag assem-
bly area, a memorial walkway,


committal service shelters, as
well as interment areas. Other
improvements include utili-
ties, grading, drainage, fenc-
ing, landscaping, and irriga-
tion system.
The VA awarded the $1.25
million master plan design
contract to England, Thims &
Miller of Jacksonville. Initial
construction will prepare a
small burial area to ensure
that veteran burials can take
place before all phase 1 facili-
ties are completed.
Veterans with a discharge
other than dishonorable, their
spouses and dependent chil-
dren are eligible for burial in
a national cemetery. Other
burial benefits for eligible
veterans include a burial
flag, a Presidential Memorial
Certificate, and a government
headstone or marker.
In the midst of the largest
cemetery expansion since the
Civil War, the VA operates
125 national cemeteries in 39
states and Puerto Rico. More
than 3.4 million Americans,
including veterans of every
war and conflict from the
Revolutionary War to the
Global War on Terror are
buried in VA national cem-
eteries.
Information on VA burial
benefits can be obtained from
the Internet at http://www.
cem.va.gov or by calling VA
regional offices at 1-800-827-
1000.

Navy Accounts For

Families Affected By


Hurricane
From Navy Personnel Command Public
Navy Personnel Command
(NPC) activated the Crisis
Action Organization (CAO)
Sept. 1 to begin accounting for
Navy personnel and families in
the Gulf Coast region affected
by Hurricane Gustav.
"There are more than 67,000
Navy family members in the
affected area," said Jim Tanner,
director of NPC's CAO and
the man leading the count for
affected shipmates.
"Our role is to facilitate the
muster and accounting process
and report that information to
CNIC, which is the executive
agent," said Tanner.
The Navy uses an Internet-
based system called Navy
Family Accountability and
Assessment System (NFAAS)
at https://navyfamily.navy.mil.
NFAAS standardizes a method
for the Navy to account, assess,
manage, and monitor the recov-
ery process for personnel and
their families affected and/or
scattered by a wide-spread cata-
strophic event.
"The muster is coming along.
We are 98 percent complete,"
said Tanner.
Once families are accounted
for, the Navy can determine
their safety and needs or coor-
dinate a safe haven if needed,
as was the case after Hurricane
Katrina hit the Gulf Coast in
2005.
While NFAAS is a good tool
to aid in accounting for the
Navy family after a disaster,
Sailors have the power to make
it an even better tool.
NFAAS is updated monthly
based on Defense Enrollment
Eligibility Reporting System
(DEERS) data, according
to Tanner, but accounting for
families who are not properly
reflected in DEERS slows down
the muster.
A common example is when


Gustav
a deployed Sailor's family
leaves their home of record dur-
ing an underway period. The
Sailor and his family may be
listed as Norfolk residents in
DEERS, but if the family trav-
els to another part of the coun-
try the Navy may have no way
of knowing.
"If your spouse is going to
spend a month visiting fam-
ily, they can log that informa-
tion into NFAAS and they'll
be accounted for. When they
return home, they can log into
NFAAS and change it back,"
said Tanner.
"NFAAS allows us to account
so the Navy may determine if
assistance is needed. It is just
one more way to keep your
family safe," he added.
Accounting for Navy person-
nel is nothing new for the CAO.
After wildfires swept through
Southern California in 2007 and
Navy families were evacuated,
the CAO was activated. When
killer tornadoes swept through
Virginia last April, the CAO
had to account for every Navy
family member in the affected
region.
For mustering purposes a
Navy Family Member is defined
as Navy personnel in the active
component, reserve component,
and their families, as well as
Department of Navy civilians.
The NFAAS Web site is
available any time for Navy
personnel or family members
who would like to update their
information.
As the Navy and the rest
of the country prepare for the
next hurricane or other disaster,
Tanner wants Sailors and fami-
lies to know about NFAAS.
"Know the Web site. Even
if you don't enter your travel
or relocation data in advance,
know the Web site because it
may serve as a life line if disas-
ter strikes," Tanner said.

flight deck.



Strike Group Eight


Visits USS Halyburton


By Ensign Jeramy Brux
USS Halyburton Public. "
Rear Admiral Kurt Tidd,
Commander Strike Group
Eight, recently visited USS
Halyburton (FFG 40) during his
visit to Naval Station Mayport.
Tidd commands Strike Group
Eight with the USS Dwight D.
Eisenhower as the centerpiece
of the battle group.
The highlight of Tidd's visit
to Halyburton was Admiral's
Call on the flight deck with
the Officers and Crew of the
Halyburton. Tidd welcomed
Halyburton to Strike Group
Eight and explained the range
of missions that Halyburton and
her crew will be tasked with
during the upcoming deploy-
ment with Strike Group Eight.
He stressed the importance
providing maritime stability in
S.- -._.i


volatile regions of the world to
prevent conflict from occurring
and protect American interests
wherever they may be.
Halyburton enters Strike
Group Eight having recently
successfully completed a rigor-
ous certification period capped
off by work-ups with Helicopter
Squadron Light 46 Detachment
Two "Grandmasters." As
part of the work-up period
aviation capable ships such
as Halyburton embark an air
detachment with a helicopter
and associated flight and main-
tenance crews. The air detach-
ment essentially becomes part
of the Crew and work as a team
with the Crew. In addition to
integrating the air detachment
Halyburton's summer has been
spent conducting combat, engi-
neering, and seamanship drills.


She enters Strike Group Eight
fully mission ready. The long
and hard summer training peri-
od was concluded with an unex-
pected sortie from Mayport on
account Tropical Storm Fay.
Halyburton's readiness began
to pay dividends while at sea
avoiding tropical storm Fay.
While underway a call was
received for the immediate
medical evacuation of a USS
Mesa Verde Sailor. HSL-46
"Grandmasters" and Halyburton
crewmembers quickly readied
and launched the helicopter to
transport the Sailor to a hospital
ashore.
USS Halyburton (FFG 40)
is homeported in Mayport
and is under the direction
of Commander, Destroyer
Squadron 28.

Firefighter Trainer At

NS Mayport On Line


By MC3 Sean Allen
Fleet Pubhc,;, Detachment
Southeast
The firefighting school at
Naval Station Mayport held its
first class on Friday August 1
after an extensive maintenance
period that took two months to
complete.
The maintenance that was
completed during the two
months that the school was
shutdown included improving
the propane and water valves
used in the firefighting simula-
tor, and overhauling other facili-
ties within the school.
While the school was closed,
commands in the Jacksonville
area were forced to travel to
Norfolk Virginia, or San Diego
California to receive the train-
ing the school offers.
"With the number of aviation
squadrons that have we have in
this area that deploy and need


to maintain an aviation certi-
fication to be able to deploy,
it is essential that we have a
facility locally that can provide
the firefighting training neces-
sary to maintain that certifica-
tion" said Senior Chief Damage
Controlman (SW/AW) Dylan
Inger, the schools Leading Chief
Petty Officer.
The school has multiple
courses that Sailors and Marines
can attend, with different facili-
ties to accommodate different
types of fires that Sailors and
Marines may face, such as an
aircraft fire simulator, and an
indoor structure to simulate
shipboard fires.
The group that attended the
school on August 1 participated
in a flight deck fire simulator.
The day for the students
began with class room instruc-
tion, where the instructors went
over the basics of firefighting


and safety. After the class room
session the group then partici-
pated in a fire drill where they
fought a live fire that was con-
trolled. After completion of the
drill the students then go back
to the class room for overview
of the lessons learned and a cri-
tique of the fire drill itself.
A group of U.S. Marines
from Marine Corps Air Station
Beaufort SC also participated in
the fire drill.
"I have participated in Marine
Corps firefighting schools and
other Navy schools, this one by
far was the most informative
and interactive." said Sgt. John
Harris.
Other commands that sent
Sailors to the school included
HSL-46.

Sammy B. Hosts Family, Survivors On Labor Day


By Ensign Beth-Ann Dick
USS Samuel B. Roberts Public, i
USS Samuel B. Roberts
kicked off a family day cruise
on Labor Day, Sept. 1, with
guests arriving from all over the
country by car, train, and air-
plane.
With family members, Sea
Cadets, past FFG 58 Sailors,
members of the Savannah Navy
League, and even a DD-823
Sailor, the ship had more than
200 guests onboard as we set
out from the pier. Family and
friends were able to get a first
hand look at what their loved
ones do on a daily basis. The
day began with a Navigation
brief on a very full mess deck,
followed by a safety brief for all
guests in attendance.
From there, guests and crew
sprawled all over the ship to
share their Sammy B. experi-
ence and expertise. There
were tours and demonstra-
tions all throughout the ship;
firefighting gear was displayed
on the fantail as Chief Damage
Controlman(SW) Steven Gant
helped many kids, including his
own, into firefighting equipment
which generated more than a
few complaints of "It's so hot
in there!"
Operations Specialist 1st
Class (SW) Andrew Buckner
explained the inner workings
of "the heart of the ship," as
Commanding Officer, Cmdr.
Wally Lovely, called CIC,
while those young and old were
amazed at what many thought
was the room of "super cool"
video games. Sea Cadets,
escorted by Navy League mem-
bers of all ages watched from
the fo'csle as Sammy B. took
on increasingly rough seas and

heavy winds that left even some
of the most seasoned survivors
and veterans pale in the face.
Despite less than optimal
weather, CG Division performed
a 300-round .50cal live-fire
exercise, much to the excite-
ment of all onlookers. Shortly
thereafter, lunch was served up
in the form of a huge barbe-
cue on the fantail, with many
thanks going out to Supply and
the capable grilling hands of the
Second Class Petty Officers'
Association, who worked tire-
lessly for hours making a great
meal for more than 400 people.
"Supply made some of the
best barbeque we had ever had
onboard and it's too bad we
could not take MWR's smoker
on deployment with us!" said
Information Technician 2nd Class
(SW) Christopher Henrikson.
After lunch and a turn to port,
Sammy B. started to make her
way back to the basin as the


sun began to come out. With
full bridgewings and bellies,
she made her way with the help
of several children who were
able to take turns driving the
ship under the watchful eye
of the helmsman. Also taking
turns coming through the pilot
house were the members of the
Savannah Navy League, who
have adopted the Sammy B. as
one of their own. For our fam-
ily from Savannah, this cruise
was a great way to "open our
brow" to our extended family
and yet again welcome them to
our ship.
An FFG-58 plankowner and
survivor of the mine blast of
April 14, 1988, Senior Chief
Gunner's Mate (SW) Thomas
Reinert enjoyed his first expe-
rience on the Sammy B. in
more than 20 years; he verbally
mourned the loss of the SM1
guided missile system. He told
vivid stories of April 14th 1988

and described how his fellow
Gunners' Mates were ready
to demolish as many mines as
they could with the 76MM gun
trained and ready.
"It was clear when he talk-
ed about Sammy B. the deep
amount of pride he had for his
fellow Sailors. To hear first
hand the history and tradition
that has become part of who we
are was inspiring," said Ensign
Molly Harris, Sammy B.'s
Ordnance Officer.
Additionally, Robert Villanti,
a DD-823 survivor brought
some incredible memories and
stories to the ship and reminded


the Sammy B. family once again
of their long and honorable
heritage that goes deeper than
our own ship. Engineman 2nd
Class Julio Perez who escorted
Villanti around the ship for the
day, proudly showed off his
DD-823 ballcap, a prized pos-
session after trading his FFG-58
belt buckle with him.
As the Family Day Cruise
wound down and the ship came


into the pier, Sammy B. beamed
with pride as cheerful fam-
ily and friends bustled onto the
pier and many good-byes were
exchanged.
Overall, it was a successful
Cruise, and a nice reminder of
all of the people who continue
to support us in our endeav-
ors and careers, especially as
we prepare for our upcoming
deployment.

hours of service to different
communities throughout San
Diego in 2007," wrote Capt.
Kelly.
"Chief Balingit's sustained
superior performance and the
countless community service
hours he has dedicated through-
out his entire Navy career have
significantly contributed to
Sailor quality of life, increased
mission readiness and the over-
all success of our command and
the nation," Kelly wrote.
Since 2005, the Navy has
nominated one of its members
for the Spirit of Hope Award.
Balingit will receive the

Sammy B. Rounds Out


Certification Cycle With


CDS 24 Group Sail


By Ensign Molly Harris
Samuel B. Roberts Public Affairs
USS Samuel B. Roberts con-
cluded its grueling yet success-
ful pre-deployment certification
with the CDS 24 Group Sail
during the latter half of August.
Planned and commanded by
CDS-24, Sammy B. was one
of four Mayport based Frigates
who participated in the week-
long sail that left from Norfolk,
Virginia. The exercise was a
precursor to the Joint Warrior
exercise to be held in September
across the Atlantic in the waters
off of England and Scotland.
Participants in the sail spent
the week prior to the exer-
cise in Dam Neck, Virginia
for a Warfare Commander's
Conference. The confer-
ence included presenters from
NAVAIR and the Royal Navy as
ship's personnel were instruct-
ed in the use of NATO com-
munications and operations.
Simulators and war games were
also an integral part of the con-


ference, giving ship's an oppor-
tunity to become well-versed
in proper communications and
strategies before they set sail.
Once underway, Sammy B.
Sailors were busy around the
clock, participating in commu-
nications exercises, Electronic
Warfare exercises, live-fire
exercises, boarding exercises
and maneuvering drills. One of
the highlights of the Group Sail
was the Anti Submarine Warfare
Exercise, which utilized an
expendable mobile ASW train-
ing target (EMATT) as multi-
ple ships attempted to find and
track the EMATT which has
characteristics similar to a sub-
marine. Upon completion of the
exercise, Sammy B., with the
help from our HSL-60 Jaguar,
launched our recoverable exer-
cise torpedo (REXTORP) and
then utilized our SAR swim-
mers to successfully bring the
REXTORP back aboard.
In addition, Sammy B. made
a great showing at the gunnery


exercises, successfully firing off
over 50 rounds of the 76MM
at a towed surface drone at a
rate of 80 rounds per minute!
Throughout the week, HSL-60's
Jaguar provided a diverse and
steady support for all exercises,
including verifying safe range
for gunnery exercises, moving
personnel and supplies around
amongst the group, and provid-
ing air support during the mul-
tiple boarding operations for not
only Sammy B., but also any
ship that required her help.
The week-long exercise was a
great way for Sammy B. to cer-
tify as an independent deploy-
er, topping off what has been
a challenging certification, but
one of great accomplishments
and hard work. More impor-
tantly, Group Sail allowed ships
to work together, better under-
stand joint operations proce-
dures, and improve war-fighting
abilities, skills that will all be
necessary during our upcoming
CNT deployment.

Stress is a normal part of

ing us. But too much stress,
without relief, can have debil-
itating effects. This program
is designed to provide partici-
pants with an understanding of
what stress is and how it affects
them. It will also help partici-
pants begin to look at their own
lives and ways they currently
cope with stress. Participants
will be challenged to develop

cope with stress.

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.
Sept. 19, 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 encompassing
behavior, emotion, development
and socialization. Parents need
to understand that there is an
intergenerational cycle of vio-
lence and they may be creat-
ing a legacy for their child of
learned violent behavior. 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 and
may provide an additional moti-
vator for ending the violence
and seeking intervention.

NMCRS Looking For Volunteers


From NMCRS
Did you know that...
Volunteering at your local
Navy-Marine Corps Relief
Office may add years to your
life? A 10-year study at the
University of Michigan found
that people who did no volun-
teer work died at an earlier age
than those who volunteered at
least once a week. Volunteering
has added benefits: a sense of
accomplishment, a dose of self-
respect, and a boost of self-con-
fidence. It can also serve as a
reminder that, relatively speak-
ing, your troubles might not be
as severe as they seem. NMCRS
Volunteers are men and women,
civilian and military -- active
duty and retired, officer and
enlisted, and their family mem-
bers. Maybe even you!
Did you know that ...
Visiting Nurses working for
the Navy-Marine Corps Relief
Society will make home, hos-
pital, or clinic visits? They
provide health education and


instruction while acting as a
liaison with other resources.
During 2007, the Society's
Visiting Nurses conducted
more than 38,000 patient con-
tacts, offering emotional sup-
port in times of stress; assist-
ing patients' understanding of
medication, diet, and follow-
up care; and providing conti-
nuity between patient, doc-
tor and community resources.
Ask about feeding newborns,
postpartum care and parenting
skills.
Did you know that ...
Junior Seabags were provid-
ed by the Navy-Marine Corps
Relief Society to the parents
of 6,400 new infants in 2007?
Attending the two-hour Budget
for Baby class provides new
parents with a Volunteer-assem-
bled layette. Junior Sea- bags
include terry sleepers, hand-
made sweater sets or afghans,
blankets, sheets, towels, and
more.
Let the Society help you

Navy Nurse Earns Gold Medal At World Golf


By Marsha Childs
NHJMarketing
Navy Nurse Cmdr. Elizabeth
"Liz" Breza won her second
gold medal in eight years,
while competing on the U.S.
Armed Forces Golf Team in the
Conseil International Du Dort
Militaire (CISM) Championship
in Ottawa, Canada on Aug. 22.
Breza competed on the six-
man, two-woman U.S. All-
Armed Forces Golf Team by
first earning a spot on the All-
Navy Golf Team during qualify-
ing rounds at Naval Air Station
(NAS) Jacksonville from Aug.
3-6. She praised the golf direc-
tor Joe Carreiro and his staff
at the NAS Jacksonville Golf
Course for the exceptional job
they did getting the links ready
for the competition. She said,
"They got the course in great
shape, especially with all the
rain. They did an exceptional
job."
She went on to qualify for one
of two women's positions while
playing at the Fort Gordon
Lakes Golf Course in Augusta,
Ga. during the Armed Forces
Golf Championship held Aug.
10-12. "The nine women repre-
senting all four military services
were fierce competitors," said
Breza. Both the U.S. men's and
women's teams won gold med-
als in team competitions.
Husband Patrick O'Neill
served as Breza's caddy on the
first two days of the Armed
Forces competition. "He knows
my game very well and helps
keep me focused. He just knows
my game really well." she said.
Breza and Air Force Capt.

Navy nurse Cmdr. Liz Breza, left, lines up her shot at the 2008 Armed Forces Golf Championship held Aug. 10-12, at Fort Gordon in
Augusta, Ga. Breza qualified to play at the CISM in Ottawa, Canada, where she won a gold medal competing on the U.S. Armed Forces


women's team.
Linda Jeffery from Offutt Air
Force Base in Nebraska bested
seven other teams from Africa,
Canada and Europe to earn the
gold. Breza said, "It is an honor
to represent your country, but


it is even more of an honor to
come and win. You just can't
describe it, it's a great feeling."
Naval Air Station Jacksonville
base commander Capt. Jack
Scorby served as the team's


senior military officer called the
Chief of Mission. Bill "Goose"
Mungia coached the Navy
Golf Team and Mike McCool
coached the CISM team. Breza
said, "We had a great group of


players and coaching and sup-
port staff."
The CISM was played at the
Hylands Golf Club, a beautiful-
ly lush course. It was Breza's
first visit to Ottawa. "We actu-


ally stayed in the dorms at the
University of Ottawa and were
shuttled to the course about 20
minutes away. Their people
there did a fantastic job in the
setup and maintenance of the
course," she said.
In 2001, Breza earned her
first gold medal in Borden,
Canada where she also com-
peted against military players
from around the world. This
year's team win earns Breza
her second gold medal, which
hangs in her office for the time
being. "I will eventually make
a shadow box of all my military
golf stuff," she said.
She credits much of her win
to private coach Tom Burnett
who runs a golf academy in St.
Augustine, Fla. "His academy
covers the whole package from
physical preparation to the men-
tal side and then the golf swing
specifically. He helps facili-
tate taking your "A" game from
the range to the course," Breza
said. She has been playing golf
for 20 years, but has only been
serious about the sport for the
past seven years.
Breza has been a Navy nurse
for 22 years, and current-
ly serves as the Clinic Nurse
Manager in the Family Medicine
Department at Naval Hospital
Jacksonville. She is thankful
that the command has afforded
her the opportunity to compete.
She is already preparing for
next year's Armed Forces com-
petition, and depending on the
operational mission, she hopes
to have another chance to play.


TRICARE Blog is Just


What The Doctor


From TRICARE
With the Military Health
System (MHS) increas-
ingly engaging in "Web 2.0,"
TRICARE launched a blog
at http://www.health.mil/
tmablog featuring Army
Maj. Gen. Elder Granger,
deputy director, TRICARE
Management Activity (TMA).
The launch builds on the Web
2.0 successes of the MHS
blog at http://www.health.
mil/mhsblog, as well as the
BlogTalkRadio show "Dot Mil
Docs" at http://www.blog-
talkradio.com/Dot-Mil-Docs.
The inaugural blog, "Just
What the Doctor Ordered," was
posted on July 25. Since then
Granger hasn't shied away from
controversy, tackling tough top-
ics such as autism and the issues


surrounding benefit delivery
in the Philippines. Granger
said he hopes that beneficia-
ries will take advantage of the
interactive feature that allows
readers to post comments.
"We're constantly seeking new
avenues to communicate and
interact with beneficiaries," said
Granger. "Blogging is a 21st
century way to get information
out and respond to the need for
information and assistance from
our TRICARE beneficiaries."
The TRICARE blog is intend-
ed to address current issues,
beneficiaries concerns and keep
visitors up-to-date on the hap-
penings at TRICARE. The site
will clearly increase interaction
with beneficiaries as Granger
continues to address hot topics.

"One of the greatest goals
of the MHS is to communi-
cate with better transparency,"
Granger said. "Our new blog
site is 'just what the doctor
ordered' to communicate with
others in the MHS and all those
who are served by TRICARE."
Current plans call for the
fledgling blog to feature a new
topic each week. With tropi-
cal storm Fay leaving parts of
Florida flooded, and Gustav in
the wings.

Teach Children How To Make Healthy Choices


By Maj. Karen E. Fauber
DeCA dietitian
We all want the best for our
children; yet we find it challeng-
ing at times to get healthy, satis-
fying meals on the table. Work,
school and all the many day-
to-day activities often have us
on the go. If you find yourself
rushing home after work and
trying to decide what to make
for dinner at the last minute,
you are not alone. Your com-
missary is working with you to
help you make choices that are
good for you and your family.
Many of us are concerned about
our children's health, especially


with the growing trend of over-
weight and obesity today. The
Defense Commissary Agency
recognizes that we need to teach
our children the importance of
healthy eating and being physi-
cally active.
The U.S. Department of
Agriculture's Web site, www.
mypyramid.gov, has a section
designed for children on how
to be more physically active
and make healthy food choices.
There is an interactive comput-
er game where kids can reach
Planet Power by fueling their
rocket with food and physi-
cal activity. In the game there


are "fuel" tanks for each food
group to help students keep
track of how their choices fit
into MyPyramid. After view-
ing the Web site with your kids,
have them help plan meals and
snacks for a few days. This can
be a fun learning experience
that the whole family can enjoy.
To help you get started here are
a few ideas from the site:
Make half your grains
whole. Choose whole-grain
foods, such as whole-wheat
bread, oatmeal, brown rice and
low-fat popcorn, more often.
Vary your veggies. Go dark
green and orange with your veg-


etables-eat spinach, broccoli,
carrots and sweet potatoes.
Focus on fruits. Eat them at
meals and at snack time, too.
Choose fresh, frozen, canned or
dried, and go easy on the fruit
juice.
Get your calcium-rich
foods. To build strong bones
serve low-fat and fat-free milk
and other milk products several
times a day.
Go lean with protein. Eat
lean or low-fat meat, chicken,
turkey and fish. Also, change
your tune with more dry beans
and peas. Add chick peas, nuts
or seeds to a salad; pinto beans


to a burrito; or kidney beans to
soup.
Change your oil. We all need
oil. Get yours from fish, nuts
and liquid oils such as corn,
soybean, canola and olive.
Don't sugarcoat it. Choose
foods and beverages that do not
have sugar and caloric sweeten-
ers as one of the first ingredi-
ents. Added sugars contribute
calories with few, if any, nutri-
ents.
Encourage your children to
apply what they have learned
while shopping regularly at the
commissary, where your sav-
ings can amount to 30 percent


or more. With savings like that,
it's always worth the trip!
For more information about
children's nutrition, visit http://
www.commissaries.com, go to
Ask the Dietitian and post your
questions on the DeCA Dietitian
Forum and be sure to look for
other useful information in the
Dietitian's Voice archive. For
tempting, delicious recipes
check out Kay's Kitchen. And
to enjoy all your commissary
benefit has to offer, sign up for
the Commissary Connection.


Homemade Lunches Should 'Be Food Safe'


From DeCA
It's time to pull out the back-
packs and clean the lunch boxes
as children head back to school
this month. Since September
is also National Food Safety
Education Month, the Defense
Commissary Agency is partner-
ing with the U.S. Department
of Agriculture and the nonprof-
it Partnership for Food Safety
Education to provide tips to
help parents keep their children
healthy this school year.
"It's important for parents to
ensure that whoever prepares
their children's school lunches
at home knows and practices
basic food safety," said DeCA
Director and Chief Executive
Officer Philip E. Sakowitz Jr.
"Families can make it a learning
activity that gives their children
a practical lesson in science."
Throughout September, DeCA


will reinforce the basics of "Be
Food Safe" in its commissaries.
The basics of Be Food -Safe
are to clean, separate, cook and
chill to help reduce the risk of
foodborne illness. When pack-
ing lunches to take to school,
keep the following food safety
tips in mind:
*Wash your hands with warm
water and soap for at least 20
seconds before you prepare food
or after playing outside, touch-
ing pets and using the bath-
room. Sing "Happy Birthday"
twice while washing hands to
make sure you are washing long
enough to send germs down the
drain.
*Work on a clean surface.
To prevent cross-contamina-
tion, always use a clean cutting
board. Use one cutting board
for fresh produce or bread and
a separate one for meat, poultry


and seafood.
*Rinse fruits and vegetables
under running tap water, includ-
ing those with skins and rinds
that are not eaten. Dry with a
paper towel.
*If lunches are made at home
the night before, keep them in
the refrigerator until it's time to
go. Make sure the refrigerator is
40 degrees Fahrenheit or below
at all times and use an appli-
ance thermometer to check the
temperature.
*Use an insulated lunch box,
with an insulated bottle for hot
foods or a frozen gel pack or a
frozen juice box to keep perish-
able foods cold.
Wash insulated lunch totes or
boxes with hot soapy water after
each use.
*Never leave perishable
foods out at room temperature
for more than two hours. Toss


any perishable food not eaten at
lunchtime.
Apply for freebies
Parents and after-school pro-
viders are urged to help kids
learn about food safety by get-
ting them involved in fun, edu-
cational activities. Free work
sheets, curriculum materials and
a hand-washing poster are avail-
able at http://www.fightbac.org.
Be Food Safe brings the
Defense Commissary Agency
and nearly 6,000 commercial
retail grocery stores togeth-
er in participating with the


Partnership for Food Safety
Education and its government
liaisons the U.S. Department
of Agriculture, U.S. Food and
Drug Administration and U.S.
Center for Disease Control and
Prevention. The goal is to help
consumers become more aware
of proper food-handling mea-
sures in the home to reduce risk
of illness. Participating food
retailers bring Be Food Safe
messages to their customers
through in-store signage, bro-
chures, flyers, packaging and
circular ads, in-store events


and other special promotions.
Parents can download and print
their own Be Food Safe basic
brochure for home use from the
Web site at http://www.befood-
safe.org.
Commissary customers who
want more food safety-related
information can visit the DeCA
Web site at http://www.com-
missaries.com, go to the "Food
Safety" section and access links
to various consumer safety
sites.


Eating On Run Done Right


By Maj. Karen E. Fauber
DeCA dietitian
Eating out is a daily habit for many of us as
we commute to work, drop off the kids at sports
and rush to the many activities that fill our lives.
We often find ourselves eating at least one meal
a day at a restaurant or fast-food establishment.
Yet, meals eaten away from home are higher in
total calories, fat and saturated fat, and lower in
calcium, fiber and iron than meals eaten at home.
On average, we consume about 300 calories more
a day when we eat out than when eating meals at
home. Therefore, it just makes sense to try eating
more meals at home.
The Dietary Guidelines recommends making
smart food choices and watching portion sizes
wherever you are at the grocery store, at work,
in your favorite restaurant or running errands. Try
these tips:
*When grabbing lunch, have a sandwich on
whole-grain bread and choose low-fat or fat-free
milk, water, or other drinks without added sugars.
In a restaurant, opt for steamed, grilled or
broiled dishes instead of those that are fried or
saut6ed.
*On a long commute or shopping trip, pack
some fresh fruit, cut-up vegetables, string cheese
sticks or a handful of unsalted nuts to help you
avoid impulsive, less healthful snack choices.
*More tips for eating on the go:
*Take time to look over the menu and go for
grilled, broiled or steamed foods more often.
*Many restaurant portions are large. Take home
half of the main course for another meal.
*Order the regular or kid-size portion.
*Drink milk occasionally to increase calcium.
*Substitute a side salad for french fries.
*Split your order. Share fries or an extra large
sandwich with a friend.


By Maj. Karen E. Fauber
DeCA dietitian
Starting the school day with
a good breakfast can give your
children an academic edge this
year. Many studies have shown
that children who eat breakfast
in the morning tend to do better
in school, including getting bet-
ter grades on tests.
Skipping breakfast is a real
problem for more than 40 per-
cent of girls and 32 percent of
boys according to The American
Dietetic Association. There are
many reasons why children
don't eat breakfast before their
day begins. However, there are
just as many reasons why it's
important to encourage your
children to fuel up with break-
fast to break the overnight fast
of not eating for the last eight to
12 hours.
Start the engine with break-
fast
*More likely to get nutri-
ents that are needed for
growing bodies including
iron, calcium, fiber, phos-
phorus and magnesium, as well
as vitamins such as riboflavin,
vitamins A, C and B12.
*May help keep weight under
control.
Common reasons for skipping
breakfast
*I don't like to eat in the
,ooo


morning
-Have a yogurt drink.
-Have a fruit smoothie made
with low-fat milk, juice and
fruit.
-Eat something you like such
as pizza or leftover chicken
*I overslept
-Set the alarm for 10 minutes
earlier and put the clock within
walking distance of the bed.
*I do not have time to eat in
the morning
-Get ready for school the
night before lay out clothes,
pack a lunch and backpack.
*I am trying to lose weight
-Skipping breakfast leads to
eating more calories later in the
day, not weight loss.
Use high-test fuel to start the
engine
It can be easy to grab high-
calorie, low-nutrient foods such
as donuts and chips while rush-
ing out the door to catch the
bus. These foods may be all
right for hectic mornings, how-
ever, just like cars, children's
bodies run best on high-test fuel
such as the following:
*Whole grain cereal with low-
fat milk and fruit
*Oatmeal with low-fat milk,
cinnamon and fruit
*Whole wheat muffin, bagel
or bread with nut butter or
cheese


*Choose a baked potato for the fiber and fewer
calories than fries. Skip the sour cream and butter
and try salsa.
*When ordering a sub, choose lean beef, ham,
turkey or chicken on whole-grain bread.
*For a small meal, order an appetizer for your
entree.
*At the salad bar, pile on the dark leafy greens,
carrots, peppers and other fresh vegetables. Go
easy on mayonnaise-based salads and high-fat
toppings.
*Order salad with dressing on the side so you
can use only the amount you want.
*Eat your lower-calorie food first. Soup or
salad is a good choice.
*Pass up all-you-can-eat specials, buffets and
unlimited salad bars if you tend to eat too much.
To make your own on-the-go meal, choose
lean, low-sodium meats and cheeses, and mus-
tard, along with whole-grain bread; you can find
it all in the deli section of the commissary. Grab
a bag of salad or cut-up veggies and some juice
to make a delicious meal on-the-go with fewer
calories than eating out. Your waistline and your
wallet will appreciate it.
And, remember to buy all your on-the-go foods
at the commissary where you can save 30 percent
or more. With savings like that, it's always worth
the trip!
For more information about eating out, visit
http://www.commissaries.com, go to Ask the
Dietitian and post your questions on the DeCA
Dietitian Forum and be sure to look for other use-
ful information in the Dietitian's Voice archive.

*Breakfast cookie with 5

*Breakfast bar with nut butter
*Hard-boiled egg
*Trail mix made with

Children are more likely to
eat breakfast in the morning
if they eat with their family or
see their parents eating. To help
start their engines in the morn-
ing have a little breakfast with
them and get your day off to a
good start, too.
