New Saturday

Hours At Clinic

Naval Branch Health Clinic
(NBHC) Mayport is making
changes to the Saturday
clinic's hours. Starting April
4, the new operating hours
for the Saturday clinic will be
8 a.m. to noon-the period
when most appointments
are requested and used.
The weekend clinic provides
medical care to active duty
personnel, retirees and fami-
ly members ages 8 and older
with urgent medical needs.
The new schedule will
expand the number of morn-
ing appointments by adding
an additional medical pro-
vider. The NBHC Mayport
Officer in Charge Cmdr. Darin
Rogers explained, "By having
two providers onboard at the
same time, we will be able
to address the numerous
requests we have for early
appointments on Saturday."

USS Robert G. Bradley PAO
Robert G. Bradley earned
the Battle Effectiveness Award
(Battle "E"), four Warfare
Excellence Awards, the Force
Health and Wellness Unit Award
for 2008, and the 2009 Captain
Edward F. Ney Memorial Award
for Food Service Excellence.
RGB is one of only three
ships in the entire Navy to earn
both the Battle "E" and the Ney
Award.
The Battle "E" is awarded
by the Immediate Superior in
Command (ISIC). The ship
must demonstrate a combina-
tion of sustained superior per-
formance, operational effective-
ness, and continuous readiness.
Robert G. Bradley is one of


three winners of the Battle "E"
in Destroyer Squadron 14.
RGB also earned the
Engineering/Survivability
Excellence Award recogniz-
ing superior engineering and
damage control readiness,
the Logistics Management
Excellence Award recognizing
excellence in management of
material and financial resourc-
es, the Command and Control
Excellence Award recognizing
sustained superior performance
in shipboard operations relat-
ing to matters of command,
control and communications,
intelligence, electronic war-
fare, and cryptologic employ-
ment, and the Maritime Warfare
Excellence Award recognizing
sustained superior performance


and readiness to conduct a
ship's prescribed military mis-
sions. The Force Health and
Wellness Unit Award (Green
"H") recognizes excellence in
establishing and promoting a
command climate conducive to
wellness and health promotion.
RGB earned the Ney Award
placing first among 30 frig-
ates in the entire Navy. The
annual award is co-sponsored
by the International Food
Service Executives Association
(IFSEA) and the Secretary of
the Navy to recognize excel-
lence in food service with the
objective of improving qual-
ity of life for Navy personnel.
Culinary Specialist (Surface
Warfare) Mark St. Hilaire, who


was also RGB's 2008 Sailor of
the Year, will represent RGB in
Atlanta, GA at the Ney Awards
Ceremony in April.
"Winning both the Battle 'E'
and the Ney Award demon-
strates that RGB Sailors under-
stand the importance of hon-
est self-assessment, developing
plans to achieve goals, assign-
ing responsibilities, and execut-
ing efficiently as a matter of
routine. I am very pleased that
their tireless efforts have been
recognized. It is an honor to
serve alongside the best Sailors
in the Navy," said Commander
Clint Carroll, RGB's command-
ing officer.
The news was received
while making a Theater


Security Cooperation port visit
to the country of Tanzania in
Southeast Africa. The crew was
thrilled to learn about receiving
the two awards.
"With this being my first
deployment and having the
Ney and the Battle 'E' Awards,
Robert G. Bradley has set
a standard that I wish to seek
in every command for the
rest of my career," said Sonar
Technician 3rd Class James
Lengyelleahu.
Robert G. Bradley is currently
deployed to the Sixth Fleet area
of responsibility in support of
Commander, U.S. Naval Forces
Africa.


Can't Pass PFA ?


Three Strikes,


You Can Be Out


From Navy Personnel Command Public

The Navy announced addi-
tional changes to the Physical
Readiness Program (PRP)
March 11, which remains
focused on performance and
enhances the culture of fitness
for Sailors.
"These changes underscore
the importance of all our Sailors
remaining fit and able to meet
the demands of Navy service.
I see this as an opportunity for
us to build upon the finest Navy
in the world by creating a Navy
that is better, stronger and more
capable," said Vice Adm. Mark
Ferguson, chief of naval per-
sonnel.
According to NAVADMIN
073/09, effective immediately,
active-duty Sailors with three
or more physical fitness assess-
ment (PFA) failures in the
last four years may not trans-
fer, reenlist or extend without
a waiver from Navy Personnel
Command.
Effective Oct. 1, Physical
Readiness Information
Management System (PRIMS)
data will be reviewed as part of
the advancement and promotion
process. According to the cur-
rent policy, Sailors who failed
their most recent PFA cannot be
advanced or promoted until they
are within PFA standards. This
has been enforced at the com-
mand level, but the new change
will allow equal enforcement
across the fleet.
"Overall fitness levels
Navywide have improved with
nearly 96 percent of Sailors
passing the Fall 2008 PFA,
according to the NAVADMIN,
said Ferguson.


Sailors with
three or more
PFA failures in
four years may
not transfer, reen-
list or extend with-
out a waiver from
Navy Personnel
Command.

Command justification is
required in PRIMS for Sailors
who do not complete a PFA.
All Sailors must meet body fat
standards in order to pass semi-
annual requirements. Sailors
who cannot complete physi-
cal portions of the PFA due to
medical waivers must still pass
a body composition assess-
ment unless (BCA) is medically
waived. Additionally, no prog-
ress waivers may be granted
after June 30, 2009.
The message now designates
dates, defined as "cycles," in
which commands must conduct
the semi-annual PFA. Cycle 1 is
Jan. 1 through June 30. Cycle 2
is July 1 through Dec. 31.
"Command leadership has a
responsibility to ensure records
are properly updated and reflect
Sailors' PFA performance. The
PRP is another performance-
based measure to ensure we're
retaining our top Sailors," said
Rear Adm. Dan Holloway,
director, Military Personnel,
Plans and Policy Division.

From ( of Naval Personnel Public

Navy is seeing the highest
reenlistment rates in a decade
and is projecting to meet most
required reenlistment needs for
Sailors with critical skills this
fiscal year (FY).
As a result, Selective
Reenlistment Bonuses are
being adjusted in NAVADMIN
075/09.
Award levels have been
revised for all but 56 Navy
enlisted classifications (NEC)
in 10 skill groups listed in the
NAVADMIN. All others are
reduced to or remain at zero.
"Selective reenlistment


bonuses are a dynamic mar-
ket-based incentive designed to
retain those Sailors in our most
critical ratings and NECs." said
Vice Adm. Mark Ferguson,
chief of naval personnel.
"We felt it was necessary to
reduce the current levels in light
of the very positive stay Navy
behavior we're seeing."
The reductions to multiples
and ceilings applied to non-
nuclear ratings and NECs are
effective May 1. This date
was chosen to allow Sailors an
opportunity to request a reser-
vation before the lower limit
takes effect. Nuclear rating and


NEC award levels will be effec-
tive May 11.
Reserve component full
time support (FTS) will con-
tinue to follow award levels in
NAVADMIN 050/09.
Commands must submit SRB
requests via Officer Personnel
Information System (OPINS)
35-120 days in advance of
a Sailor's reenlistment date.
Requests for precertification
submitted less than 35 days
prior to the requested reenlist-
ment date without substantial
justification will be rejected.

Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society (NMCRS) Mayport Director Bill Kennedy talks to represen-
tatives from Naval Station Mayport about the NMCRS fund drive currently underway through
April 17. Last year NMCRS raised $232,000, 114 percent of goal. This year's goal is $200,000.
Mayport assisted nearly 1,500 clients last year and provided loans and grants totaling more
than $925,000. In this time of economic uncertainty the needs of our military and their families,
both active duty and retired have never been more critical. Each and every dollar donated 100
percent will go to help a shipmate facing a financial need.

2 THE MIRROR, NS MAYPORT, Thursday, March 19, 2009


By Beth Wilson
Military Spouse Contributor
The economy is at the fore-
front of our attention these
days. You may have heard that
CertifiChecks, Inc., the compa-
ny that provided gift certificates
for the Commissary and AAFES
(Army, Air Force Exchange
System), recently announced it
was going out of businesses, fil-
ing Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Their
website provides instructions
for filing for 'potential reim-
bursement' for any outstand-
ing gift certificates. But there
is good news for those holding
any gift certificates.


Over the years alcoholics
anonymous type groups have
flourished across America.
Their success is due to their
effectiveness in providing
support, encouragement and
accountability among those that
seek to eliminate compulsive
behaviors.
At one such meeting of
Overeaters Anonymous the
participants hold each other
accountable by sharing with
each other how their week
has gone. One particular lady
proudly shared her week by
stating: "well, this past week I
exercised moderately, shopped
moderately, lived moderately
and ate moderately!" "Mary,"
the group leader asked, "is there
anything else you would care to
add?" "Yes!" She confessed, "I
lie excessively!"
American society is by far
one of the most, if not the most,
food and weight conscious soci-


Both AAFES and DeCA
(Defense Commissary Agency)
have announced they will con-
tinue to honor the gift certif-
icates. In a plan approved by
the Department of Defense
DeCA commissaries will
honor CertifiCheck gift checks
now through July 31, 2009.
The move by the DoD allows
DeCA to absorb the losses in its
Working Capital Fund. Please
note that all CertifiChecks gift
checks must be redeemed prior
to July 31, 2009.

From now through Mother's
Day the commissary is cel-
ebrating "Every Day is Mom's
Day.' "Moms are the heartbeat
of our military families..." said
Philip E. Sakowitz, Jr., DeCA

Mother's Day in May we want
to focus special attention on our

With this initiative DeCA
seeks to pamper moms with


that may be operative and tend
to drain one's positive energy.
*Methods: Again, it its rec-
ommended that you first consult
with your health care provider.
The rule of thumb in fasting is
"learn to walk before you run."
There are three basic methods
as follows:
1. Partial Fast Start the
day with a normal breakfast
and consume fruits and juices
throughout the rest of the day.
Do this perhaps once a month at
your discretion.
2. Normal Fast After accli-
mating to a partial fast the body
may be ready for a normal fast
which abstains from food and
beverages. Water is permit-
ted. Again, one builds up to
this gradually. Many people opt
for a normal fast by doing it for
12 hours & gradually building
up to 24 hours over a period of
time.
3. Absolute Fast This is


a variety of specially priced
health and beauty care products
set aside just for them. Look
for special events at your local
commissary to further honor the
Moms. From mini-massages to
giveaways and demonstrations,
your DeCA commissary is seek-
ing to "put moms 'first,' honor-
ing all their sacrifices they make
each and every day."

rarely practiced. People that
engage in this are very experi-
enced in the discipline of fast-
ing and only exercise it under
exceptional circumstances. Not
recommended for beginners.
(*Source: Richard Foster's
Celebration of Discipline,
Harper Collins Publishers 1998)
During fasting, one should
perform their regular duties.
By all means, one should begin
their period of fasting in prayer
and close their fast in prayer.
Throughout the fast, reading
and meditating on selected pas-
sages of the sacred scriptures is
strongly encouraged. Making
journal entries is also a com-
mon practice.
(Please Note: F-i,,g is not
for everyone. It is recommend-
ed that you consult with your
physician before engaging in a
fast).

Suicide Prevention


Hotline Saves Lives


By Army Staff Sgt.
Michael J. Carden
American Forces Press Service
Help is only a phone call
away for military veterans con-
sidering suicide.
Nearly 100,000 veterans,
family members or friends of
veterans have reached out for
help by calling the Department
of Veterans Affairs suicide
prevention hotline at 1-800-
273-TALK. The hotline was
launched July 2007.
The VA initiative is part of
a collaborative effort with the
National Suicide Prevention
Lifeline, a nationwide network
of 133 crisis centers.
Calls automatically are routed
to the nearest center based on
the caller's area code.
The hotline operates 24 hours
a day, seven days a week, and is
staffed by trained mental health
professionals prepared to deal
with immediate crisis.
Although the lifeline isn't
restricted to military veterans
only, callers are prompted to
"please press 1 now" if they are
a U.S. military veteran or are
calling about a veteran.
Callers who press 1 are trans-
ferred to the nearest VA call
center.
More than 2,600 veterans
have been "rescued" through the
hotline, according to a recent
VA statement.
"I urge veterans and their
loved ones to take advantage
of our suicide-prevention pro-
gram," VA Secretary Eric K.
Shinseki said in the statement.
"Help for these heroes is a
phone call away."
An estimated 5,000 veterans
commit suicide annually, with
Iraq and Afghanistan war vet-
erans 35 percent more likely to
commit suicide than the general
population. VA statistics show


that between 2002 and 2006,
more than 250 veterans who left
the military after Sept. 11, 2001,
committed suicide.
The trend has grown within
the active-duty military ranks
too.
A steady increase in suicides
among veterans and active-duty
members has been persistent in
recent years. The Army recently
announced 2008 as its highest
suicide year since 1980, with
at least 128 soldiers confirmed
to have taken their own lives,
while 15 other cases are pend-
ing investigations.
VA, the Defense Department
and local communities are mak-
ing it a point to understand sui-
cide and determine better pre-
vention methods. Defense lead-
ers, including Navy Adm. Mike
Mullen, chairman of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff, have voiced
concerns for short- and long-
term solutions.
"We have got to be able to
support those individuals in
ways that, in some cases, we
haven't quite figured out yet,"
Mullen said during a lecture at
Grove City College, Pa., earlier
this month.
Mullen routinely advocates
for solutions to increase the
amount of rest and time at home
troops have in between deploy-
ments. Officials recognize the
high tempo of deployment rota-
tions as being a likely factor for
the increased suicide rates.
VA and active-duty military
officials are working with out-
side research organizations to
improve their programs and
lower the numbers. The Army
and National Institute of Mental
Health recently launched a five-
year research initiative to gain a
better understanding in the hope
of preventing suicides in the
military and nation.

USS Vicksburg Visits


Toulon


By Ensign Marc Schron
USS Vicksburg Public. Officer
USS Vicksburg recently wrapped-up
their port visit in Toulon, France as
part of the Eisenhower Carrier Strike
Group.
Innumerable opportunities to unwind
and enjoy the local culture awaited the
anxious Sailors, none of which were to
disappoint.
Ranging from relaxing with a beer


and a "smashed sandwich" at the
renowned Pretty Woman Sandwiches,
Boissons & Crepes stand just out-
side the main gate of Marine National
Base Navale de Toulon, to sampling
the Toulon nightlife, Vicksburg Sailors
were not without plentiful options with
which to enjoy their time.
On two different occasions, MWR
organized trips for the crew to Monaco
and Monte Carlo. Taken by bus from


the pier directly into the middle of his-
toric Monaco, participants arrived just
in time to watch the changing of the
guard at the Monaco state building.
Strolling the streets and browsing
the cafes of this quaint country, tour-
goers were afforded breathtaking views
of the cliffs, urban development and
Mediterranean Sea, all joining together
in a fantastic panorama.
Back on the bus, it was a quick ride


to Monte Carlo, where Sailors strolled
the scenic streets and tried their luck
in the famous and lavish Monte Carlo
Casino.
Additionally, MWR sponsored cook-
outs each evening on the ship and pier,
providing an easy meal before Sailors
headed out to explore the Toulon night.
A handful of Sailors took advan-
tage of an opportunity to hit the links,
proving that an Atlantic crossing is no


detriment to the golf swing or profes-
sional eye. Souvenirs, crepes, open-air
markets and suntans were just what
the doctor ordered for the crew of
Vicksburg, and they found it all and
more in Toulon.
The crew returned restored and ready
to continue with the rest of deploy-
ment, anxious to see what the high
seas and next port of call will bring for
Vicksburg.

Vicksburg Hosts French Navy


By Ensign Marc Schron
Vicksburg Public. Officer
During Vicksburg's recent
port visit in Toulon, France,
the crew had the opportunity to
host a reception for members of
the France-Etats Unis Society,
Toulon Chapter.
This organization fosters good
will and friendship between
both countries, two traits that
Vicksburg is certainly not in
short supply of or bashful to
share. This also gave Vicksburg
an opportunity to apply the
Navy's new cooperative strat-
egy for 21st century sea power.
The France-Etats Unis
Society, specifically the Toulon
chapter, has contributed greatly
to Navy port calls to Toulon.
Additionally, they are also the
main support for World War II


commemorations in the South
of France.
Among the guests were the
Chapter President, French
Navy retired Rear Adm. Jean
Louis Perinet and the Chapter
Vice President, French Navy
retired Vice Adm. Arata Claude.
Many significant members of
Toulon's, and to a greater extent
France's, infrastructure were on-
hand to socialize and generate
camaraderie with Vicksburg's
crew.
All of the Society's mem-
bers were treated to tours
of Vicksburg and her awe-
some war fighting capabil-
ity, impressing even the most
seasoned veteran of the group.
Many of the France-Etats Unis
Society expressed how inspired
they were by the tremendous


power of U.S. warships and the
vigorous daily routine of the
Vicksburg's crew.
All Vicksburg depart-
ments contributed greatly to
the success of the reception,
from the pride of the HSL 46
"Black Knights" in their air-
craft, to the wonderful hors
devours spreads provided by
the Supply Department, to the
Quartermasters adorning the
helicopter hangar and flight
deck with all different flags and
pennants.
Vicksburg proved that
not only is it a war fighting
machine, but also an adaptable
and capable societal interaction
platform to further relations
with host nations.

Sailors Improve Toulon Farming Facilities

By Lt.j.g. Scott Shubert
USS Vicksburg Chaplain
Sailors from USS Vicksburg
(CG 69) improve farming facili-
ties used to aid the homeless.
Les Jardins de la Pauline is a."
multi acre farm owned by the
city of Toulon used to grow
vegetables that are sold to sup-
port the dispossessed. A unique '' -
aspect of les Jardins is the ,
workers. Those who work the ,, i
farm are also the recipients of ,
its benefits. It is a place where
the destitute come to grow the
vegetables, and operate the
market where the vegetables are
sold to earn their support.
A problem the farm has faced
for many seasons is dry weath-
er.
"Keeping the soil moist is4
critical for the growing of veg-
etables" said Marie Francois
Sibille, resident of Toulon. She
went on to say, the installation
of this sprinkler system will.
help them grow the food they
need to live.
Eighteen Sailors from USS
Vicksburg (CG 69) dug many
yards of trenches to prepare for
the installation of a sprinkler
system that will be used to water
the plants that are grown there..
In just a few hours the trench
was dug and the overseers of
the farm were delighted.
"If we did not have the
Americans help, it would have
taken us two days to dig [the
trench], said Gouiran Regis, .., .
farm worker.

USN Retirees



Experience Virtual



Bridge Simulator


By Lt. Cynthia Wood
ATG Mayport PAO
Nine residents of Fleet
Landing, a retirement commu-
nity located on Mayport Road,
were recently given the oppor-
tunity to observe Naval Station
Mayport's navigation, seaman-
ship and ship handling trainer
(NSST).
NSST is a full-mission bridge
simulator used to train ship's
watchstanders to safely navigate
and handle the ship in a virtual
environment.
The demonstration was to
show retired naval officers how
technology has influenced train-
ing bridge watchstanders in the
Surface Warfare community.
The NSST visitors were
retired Vice Adm. Ed Cooke,
retired Capt. Bob Ballow,
retired Capt. Howard Burdick,
retired Capt. Maylon Truxtun
Scott, retired Capt. Ed Fenton,
retired Capt. Charles Styer,
retired Capt. Pat Patterson,
retired Cmdr. Bill Query, and
Dick Schlaaf.
The guests began the after-
noon with a welcome from
ATG Commanding Officer,
Capt. Herbert Hadley, and
facilitator, retired Capt. Hubert
"Buzz" Broughton. Broughton
explained that the purpose of
developing the simulator was
to train watchstanders to reduce

response. Broughton also dis-
cussed the courses of instruction
available to Mayport's ships
and the simulator's capabilities,
such as getting a ship underway
from a pier, recovering a man
overboard, or replenishment at
sea.
Before stepping into the sim-
ulator, the guests were shown
the computer control station
that sets the virtual scenario
by location, weather, time of
day, and also adds shipping
traffic. Once in the simulator,


Broughton demonstrated a ship
getting underway from Norfolk,
Virginia and proceeding in open
ocean to conduct a replenish-
ment at sea.
The guests were both over-
whelmed and delighted with the
realism of the simulator. Many
of them even felt as though they
were back at sea. Their previ-
ous commanding officer person-
alities surfaced as they critiqued
Broughton's driving skills.
"This is a great simulator! It
is a superb training device that
I wish we had earlier," stated
Cooke.

Gettysburg Sailors Get Tour Of Italy


By Ensign
Stephan A. Lubosch
USS Gettysburg
The crew of USS Gettysburg
was given the honor of conduct-
ing a port visit to Civitavecchia
to reestablish relations with the
city and provide Sailors the
opportunity to venture out to
famous Italian landmarks.
It had been more then
two years since the port of
Civitavecchia, situated 50 km
North of Rome, Italy, hosted a
U.S Navy ship.
Gettysburg entered the Italian
port city on March 8, greeted
by a Coast Guard escort, a pilot
boat, and two tugs. The weath-
er, clement and sunny, in addi-
tion to the scenic landscape,
made the Sea and Anchor evo-
lution one of the most enjoy-
able the crew has experienced
recently.
"When I looked past the
perimeter of the harbor, I was
amazed at how beautiful the
small town looked," Ensign
Jeffrey Kee, the ship's Electrical
Division Officer, stated shortly
after stepping topside to get a
view of the ship's position in
port.
The crew, dressed in their ser-
vice blue uniforms upon arrival,
was excited for liberty call.
The majority of the crew took
advantage of the one-hour train
ride to the city of Rome to tour
the many historic sites and sam-
ple authentic fine cuisine. In
Rome, Sailors ventured through-
out the massive network of nar-
row alleyways, taking advan-
tage of the cooperative and
pleasant weather. Gettysburg
sightseers visited the ruins of
the old city, the Coliseum, Trevi
Fountain, the Pantheon, and the
Vatican. St. Peter's Basilica
stood out to be the highlight
of the day for Engineman 2nd
Class Navarro who mentioned
that despite the lovely crowd
roaming the streets of Rome
and the other historic places, the

Vatican, "was the coolest and
most impressive part of Rome."
Following the tour, the Piazza
de Spagna, otherwise known
as the Spanish Steps, offered
visitors an opportunity to eat
at some of the famous Roman,
family-owned cantinas and fully
experience the Italian way of
eating, usually involving long,
and multi-course meals.
"This was the best meal I
have had in a long time," Ensign
Phillips remarked on the train
ride back to Civitavecchia. "I
did not want to stop eating even
though after the second course,
I was already full." This visit
was his first in Europe.
An MWR tour, led by the
Rome USO office, took thir-
ty-two Gettysburg Sailors to
Pompeii for a visit of the city
buried in lava and ash by Mount
Vesuvius' ancient volcanic erup-


tion. It offered a rare view of
the lifestyle more than 2,000
years ago and a unique insight
into what it must have been like
for those in Pompeii the day of
that historic eruption.
"I am very proud of the
Gettysburg crew," commented
Cmdr. Scott Robertson, exec-
utive officer. "While we cer-
tainly make port visits to offer
the crew an opportunity to relax
and see new places, we are also
here as Ambassadors to our
great country. Leaving a posi-
tive impression on the Italians
we met ashore was critical to
maintaining a great reputation -
we want the Navy to be invited
back to the port."
The crew received numerous
praises for their courteous inter-
action and professional behavior
while in Civitavecchia.

Phil Sea VBSS Team In New Training


By MC3(SW)
Candice Villarreal
COMDESRON 24 Public, ;
Sailors from USS Porter
(DDG 78) and USS Philippine
Sea (CG 58) visit, board, search
and seizure (VBSS) teams par-
ticipated in comprehensive fleet
irregular warfare training March
11, during a Destroyer Squadron
(DESRON) 24 Group Sail in the
Atlantic Ocean.
The group sail's primary
function is to augment the bat-
tle group's abilities to execute
U.S. Navy maritime strategy.
Various scenarios provide indi-
vidual unit commanding offi-
cers the opportunity to practice
flexible responses to emerg-
ing threats. It is a precursor to
the upcoming Joint Warrior
Exercise that will encompass
thorough training in less tradi-
tional areas.
"We've always rehearsed
normal warfare techniques, but
we have new emergent threats,"
said Fire Controlman 1st Class
(SW) Ben Hostetler, mechani-
cal breacher and security team
leader for Porter's VBSS
team. "Every chance we get to
rehearse the execution and fun-
damentals for these emergent
tasks is a big benefit in making
our teams dynamic assets for
any real-life occurrences."
Because current worldwide
scenarios like piracy, hostage
situations and drug trafficking
usually require means other
than traditional engagement for
optimal results, boarding exer-
cises are an invaluable tool.
"All of the exercises
employed during the group sail
allow us to get away from the
normal, core fighting tactics,"
said Lt. j.g. Samuel Robinson,
a Porter VBSS boarding officer.
"Right now, we're completely
focused on the more detailed
functional aspects of new war-
fare."
Both the Porter and Philippine
Sea VBSS teams focused on
essential mission areas that
include positioning, approach,
apprehension and protocol.
Personnel from each team
boarded the opposing team's
vessel and conducted fast-
paced, hands-on training, while

DESRON 24 Group Sail Units


Execute Complex Refueling At Sea


By MC3 Joshua Nistas
COMDESRON 24 Public. ;
Destroyer Squadron
(DESRON) 24 Group Sail par-
ticipants took part in a complex
five-ship Replenishment-at-sea
(RAS) March 12 in the Atlantic
Ocean.
The RAS was one of sever-
al evolutions executed during
Fleet Irregular Warfare Training
for ships participating in the
upcoming Joint Warrior exer-
cise.


USNS Arctic (T-AOE-8)
refueled USS Porter (DDG
78), USS Philippine Sea (CG
58), USS Winston S. Churchill
(DDG 81), and USS Anzio (CG
68) consecutively in a fast-
paced evolution that integrated
intense drills such as emergency
breakaways.
Porter alone received about
150,000 gallons of diesel fuel
marine (DFM) from the Arctic,
a massive supply ship with a
holding capacity of almost two


million gallons.
"There were a lot of new
people on board who were able
take part and see firsthand how
a RAS works," said Hospital
Corpsman 3rd Class Alicia
Turner, a corpsman-on-scene
during the exercise. "It was a
great training experience for
everyone. A multiple-ship refu-
eling is a pretty difficult thing
to carry out, but the crews per-
formed well together."
Crew members manned sta-


tions, communicated with one
another, heaved lines, and main-
tained a phone and distance line
throughout the almost two-hour
process. While RAS evolutions
are common for ships at sea,
involving additional ships can
make the process more complex
and dangerous, as the distance
between the mammoth, mov-
ing vessels is normally less than
200 feet.
"Training is mandatory to
give new and seasoned Sailors


the experience they'll really
need to make it through a dif-
ficult scenario under pressure,"
said Chief Boatswain's Mate
(SW) Derek Woodland, on
board Porter.
"There are a lot of safety con-
cerns and proper procedures
involved in things like this
[RAS]. Without thorough train-
ing, our ability to get through
these kinds of operations would
deteriorate."

Mayport Hurricanes


Wins Season Opener


From MWR
Naval Station Mayport
Hurricanes softball team entered
and won its first tournament of
the season, the Kickoff Classic,
on March 7 at Drew Park in
Jacksonville.
The Hurricanes are coached
by Senior Chief Operations
Specialist Loeblein of USS
Farragut. During the tourna-
ment, Operations Specialist
2nd Class Grabowiecki of USS
Stephen W. Groves led the
offensive onslaught with a .750


batting average. Hurricanes
pitcher Operations Specialist
1t Class Hogan of Harbor
Operations, backed by a stel-
lar defense, only conceded four
runs in their first three games.
The Hurricanes would
advance to the Championship
game undefeated from the
winner's bracket and face The
Slammers. The Slamers would
prevail in the first game 11-3.
This would give both teams one
loss, and a second game would


be played to determine the tour-
nament champion. In the bot-
tom half of the first inning the
Hurricanes scored four runs.
The Slammers would respond
with six runs in the top of the
second inning to take a 6-4 lead.
The Hurricanes would add a run
in the bottom of the second to
narrow the gap to a single run.
In the bottom of the third
inning the Hurricanes would
score three runs, capped by
a two-run homer by Ensign
Benjamin of the USS Farragut,
to take a 8-6 lead they
would never relinquish. The
Hurricanes would prevail 13-10
to take home their first tourna-
ment championship of the new
season.

of charge. Pre-registration is

March 19, 8-11 a.m., Anger
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.

In March, the Adele Grage
Cultural Center features artist
Pablo Rivera with his exhibit
"Visions of Dutton Island," a
series of black and white and
color photographs taken at
Dutton Island Preserve on
the Intracoastal Waterway in
Atlantic Beach. Rivera, a
graduate of Cooper Union Art
School, was amazed at the
new sources of visual stimula-
tion each time he visits Dutton
Island, so close to home and
yet removed from city life. His
photographs and his organic
sculpture will be on exhibit
through the month of March.
In addition for the month,
artist Janet Mulligan displays
her fused glass creations. By
cutting, grinding, slumping lay-
ers of dichronic, cathedral and
opaque glass, her unique art
emerges.
A reception for the artists will
be from 6 8 p.m. during the
North Beaches Art Walk. Adele
Grage Cultural Center is located
at 716 Ocean Blvd in Atlantic
Beach and is open to the public
weekdays, 8 to noon and 1 to
