Participation in
national security
exercise earns
satisfactory grade

By MC1 (SW/AW) Jerry

U.S. Fleet Forces Public Affairs
U.S. Fleet Forces Command
last week completed Exercise
Solid Curtain/Citadel Shield
'09, a four-day drill that was
the Department of Defense's
largest stateside anti-terror-
ism/force protection exercise
and concluded with 181 sim-
ulated events conducted by
Navy shore installations and
activities within the continen-
tal United States.
"We met all of our exercise
objectives," said Capt. Sam A.
McCormick, USFF director for
fleet anti-terrorism. "It was
done exceptionally well, and
my hat's off to all of the partici-
pants that made this exercise a
success.'
SC/CS-09, designed to
enhance Naval Security Force
personnel training and readi-
ness in response to installation
and unit threats, used multiple
command and security force
processes that would normally
be implemented in the event


of an actual emergency.
Naval Submarine Base Kings
Bay personnel responded well
to a simulated attack during
the exercise.
Installation Training Officer
Max Tinsley said a scenario
was played out Feb. 24 where
individuals who had stolen a
government van outfitted it
with an explosive device and
tried to gain access to Kings
Bay. Security personnel, who
recognized the vehicle from
a bulletin issued the day
prior documenting the theft,
stopped the attempt at the
Franklin Gate.
A subsequent part of the
drill had the bomb in the van
explode, creating casualties.
This expanded the scope of the
drill to include base Explosive
Ordinance Disposal, Naval
Criminal Investigative Service,
medical, Public Affairs, and
Fleet and Family Support
Center and other personnel.
"Overall, the exercise was
graded satisfactorily," Tinsley
said. "We're doing a final after-
action report. We completed
all the goals and objectives we
set out for ourselves, but there
are always things we can get
better at and improve on."
Events were played out as if

Navy College


offers tuition aid


Up to $4,500
annually to help
meet costs of
higher education
By MC1 (SW) Joe Sabo
Periscope Staff

Do you want to further your
education? Maybe you want
to get an advanced degree in
business or English literature.
Or, maybe an engineering
degree is up your alley.
The first step to achiev-
ing these goals is to visit the
base Navy College Office. The
professionals in the office are
there to help you meet your
educational goals.
The Navy has a tuition
assistance program. Students
wanting TA need to attend an
annual counseling class. The
classes are from 11 to 11:30
a.m. every Wednesday in the
Navy College Education build-
ing, next to the NEX and Fleet
and Family Service Center.
Reservations are required and
the class fills up fast.
The class covers informa-
tion and forms that students
need to know to apply for and
be authorized TA.
"I liked the training. It gave
me a lot of information I didn't
know," said MT1 (SS) Barnaby
Robles of Trident Training
Facility. "There is a lot more
to filling out the forms. This
30-minute counseling session
will get your foot in the door
and make it a lot easier for
Sailors and Marines to get an
education."
Navy TA pays the tuition and
fees charged by educational
institutions for classes that
lead to a certificate or degree.
Navy TA also pays 100 percent
of tuition costs for courses
applicable to the completion
of a high school diploma or


equivalency certificate.
For education certificates
and degrees, there is a fiscal
year limit on the number of
credit hours an individual can
take, but this can be waived.
Additionally, there are limits
TA will pay for each credit hour
and a fiscal year maximum of
$4,500. This encourages stu-
dents to be prudent in search-
ing for the best education for
the TA spent and encourages
institutions to offer cost-effec-
tive programs for military
members.
"Using TA is the like receiv-
ing a $375 pay raise each
month for each class you take,'
said Navy College Director
Gregg White. "Two classes
equal a $750 monthly, a raise
or a jump from E3 to E6."
For those who have not
received their annual TA coun-
seling, it must be completed
by May 1. Annual TA counsel-
ing is mandatory for all Navy
personnel who want to receive
TA funding.
Chiefs and above can take
the counseling for chiefs on
the Navy College Web site at
https://www.navycollege.
navy.mil. Click on the "tuition
assistance" link or attend the
weekly class.
Marines must have com-
pleted College 101 to receive
TA funding.
Students receiving TA must
have an official degree plan
signed by their school or a
signed SOCNAV/SOCMAR
agreement after five classes for
Sailors and after 12 credits for
the Marines.
"This counseling gives the
aspiring student a baseline,"
said Jim Todd of the Navy
College Office. "It will help
alleviate some of the com-
mon errors that transpire
with tuition assistance, such
as sending the tuition assis-

Trident crews a tight-knit group


Elite Sailors share
special bond on vital
mission under waves

By Gerry J. Gilmore
American Forces Press Service
Somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean
recently, sailors aboard the Trident stra-
tegic missile submarine USS Maryland
(SSBN 738) prepared to start a series of
underwater practice maneuvers known
as "angles and dangles."
The Maryland's captain, Cmdr. Jeffrey
M. Grimes, and his chief of the boat and
senior enlisted leader, Master Chief Petty
Officer Michael C. McLauchlan, intently
observed the actions of the officers and
enlisted crew in the control room as the
vessel silently tilted downward.
Trident strategic deterrent submarines,
nicknamed "Boomers," carry as many as
24 Trident II D-5 nuclear ballistic mis-
siles.
"We're there on the front line, ready
to go;'," Grimes said. Important missions,
he said, are "happening every day in the
deep, blue ocean."
Tridents are nuclear-powered, Ohio-
class submarines. At 560 feet long and 42
feet wide, they are the largest submarines
in the U.S. Navy's inventory.
Meanwhile, in the control room, Petty
Officer 3rd Class Lamar Johnson, 23, sits
calmly at the helmsman's station as he
adroitly manipulates the yoke control that
adjusts the submarine's depth and direc-
tion. At about 400 feet under the waves,
the Maryland leveled off, then began
ascending.
After the exercise, Johnson, who hails
from Chicago, said piloting the Maryland
underwater is a matter of "paying atten-
tion, making sure you're tracking the
gauges."
Sailors volunteer for submarine duty


and are among the top performers across
the Navy, McLauchlan, a 26-year veteran,
said.
"There is a pretty rigid screening pro-
cess to get a guy to come into the subma-
rine force;'," McLauchlan said.
New submariners are subject to strin-
gent qualification criteria when they
report to their first boat, he said, while
submarine veterans experience contin-
ued certifications during their careers.
During their first year while assigned to
their first submarine, enlisted members
are required to earn the coveted silver
"dolphins" pin that says they've learned
how to function
as a team mem-
ber aboard their "YOu
boat. Dolphins- be able
pin recipients also everybh
must demonstrate
knowledge of basic your lif
submarine opera- time, a
tions, as well as could go
the ability to work c uld g
as a team member
to put out fires and
control flooding.
"They kill them-
selves to try to get those dolphins, because
it's very important to them," McLauchlan
said of enlisted sailors aboard their first
submarine. "And we make it very special
when we present them. Once they get
those dolphins, it's just the start for more
and more for these kids."
Commissioned-officer submariners
also must qualify to wear golden dol-
phins.
About a week earlier, the Maryland's
"Gold" crew under Grimes' command
embarked on its 53rd patrol from its home
port at Naval Submarine Base King's Bay.
Trident submarines have two crews, called
Blue and Gold, which rotate patrols. One
crew is at sea for 60 to 90 days, while the
other trains ashore. In this way, the ves-
sels can be employed at sea 70 percent of
the time, when not undergoing scheduled

p(


maintenance in port.
The USS Maryland is "a platform that is
undetectable, that cannot be found, and
yet, is in constant connection with the
national command authorities," Grimes
explained. The submarine, he added,
possesses "the stealth and power needed
to respond to a global crisis with devastat-
ing force."
The Maryland's crew routinely per-
forms damage control exercises, consist-
ing of flooding and fire scenarios, as well
as mock battle and strategic-deterrence
drills during its patrols, so that if the real
event should ever occur, "we're ready to
go," Grimes said.

Dillon, bS.C. importance of their
job," Grimes said.
"They leave their
families at home. They work long hours
for me when we have the boat in for refit.
"It's all about the mission," Grimes said,
adding that Trident submarine sailors
stay in the Navy "because they like what
they do, and they are true patriots."
The Navy's attack and strategic-deter-
rent submarine force "is safe, secure and
reliable and ready to perform its mission,
24/7;'," said Navy Capt. Kevin R. Brenton,
who was along for part of the Maryland's
patrol and is preparing to take command
of Submarine Squadron 20 at King's Bay.
"We couldn't do it without the extraor-
dinaryyoung men that man these subma-
rines," Brenton said. "They're America's
best and brightest."

A Journal for Jordan offers moving insights


March is designated
the Month of the
Military Child. This
is the month we focus on the
precious children of our ser-
vice members, acknowledg-
ing the sacrifice they make at
such young ages and the chal-
lenges they face.
My husband and I are an
infertile couple, so I feel inad-
equate tackling the subject
of military children. But I
don't have to be a parent to
appreciate the pain of a child
on the pier or tarmac saying
good bye to daddy, missing
a mommy and confused by
their absence.
In researching resources
and stories for the Month of
the Military Child, I attended
a blogger's round table spon-
sored by the Army where I
"met" Dana Canedy, a senior
editor for the New York Times
and fiance of Army 1st Sgt.
Charles King, a career soldier.
I'd like to introduce her and
her story, their story, to you.
Prior to deploying for
his last deployment to Iraq


Wish bear


can help


kids cope

I know that a lot of us are
dealing with deployments
and/or getting ready for
the next goodbye. I wanted
to tell you about my favor-
ite deployment item for my
children. This is the greatest
thing for younger kids while
their dad is deployed.
It's called the wish bear.
My husband and I
struggled with our first two
deployments. Like most par-
ents know, when dad leaves
it is hard on your kids. This in
return makes it hard for your
husband and yourself. We
do the videos of dad reading
books and the kids get half
way boxes made by dad that
"show up" on halfway night
... the kids are happy and
great, but bedtime just wasn't
the same without dad.
We have always had bed


Canedy gave 1st Sgt. King a
journal, to "jot down a few
thoughts" for the son she was
carrying. That journal became
King's burning passion and
totaled more than 200 pages
when an IED took his life in
October 2006. Jordan was
then seven months old.
Each entry in the journal
starts with, "Dear Jordan..."
and contains 1st Sgt. King's
hopes and dreams for his son,
as well as insight and instruc-
tion for becoming a man. The
journal contains practical


time rituals. And bedtime was
never a problem until dad
wasn't there. There is nothing
harder for a mom than when
a child needs something that
you can't give them ... in this
case, their dad. So, I used my
milspouse creative thinking
and came up with an idea.
I call it the wish bear, and
this is how it works.
Dad went out and bought
the kids a special bear. They
just happen to be Navy bears,
of course! He waited until
bedtime to give each child
their own special bear from

information ("when travel-
ling keep your money in your
sock") as well as profound
insight on the power of prayer,
faith, respect for women,
thoughts on war and that it is
OK for a man to cry.
Canedy shares, "When I
first read the journal left to
us, I fell in love with Charles
all over again." She said while
they were close and knew
each other well, she learned
things about Charles she
never knew through the pages
of this journal. Things like his
desire to see the Great Wall of
China and love of rainstorms.
1st. Sgt King was a quiet
man, full of contradictions.
As a career soldier, he was
artistic. As such, the journal
is laced with stunning self-
portraits and other artwork.
Despite being painfully shy as
a First Sergeant, King was so
respected that an Army train-
ing base in the Mojave Desert
was renamed "Forward
Operating Base King" after his
death.

Happiness


is in us all

Two couples felt that
happiness was eluding
them.
One couple lived in a
large city and the other in a
small rural area. Each couple
decided that the other's way
of life was better and so they
changed places for a year.
The city couple became
board with the slow pace of
the country and the chal-
lenges of nature. The country
couple was soon dismayed by
the crowds and the imperson-
al, hurry up city tempo. At the
end of the year both couples
came to realize a fundamental
truth of life that happiness
lies within us.
The goal for the vast major-
ity of us in life is to be happy.
How we go about reaching
that goal and how happiness
is defined varies from person
to person. For some it's an
escape to Paradise Island. For
others it's having a wonderful


A Journal for Jordan, Canedy
wanted to "put a face and
name and story to at least one
American soldier who has
died for our country in Iraq.
Unfortunately, he was my
soldier. Also, I wanted to cre-
ate a way to help Jordan get to
know his father. I am proud to
share the wisdom that Charles
left behind, as well as his leg-
acy of heroism, decency and
courage.'
Canedy will be joining me
on Navy Homefront Talkl, the
Internet talk show at www.

Wednesday. Please join us as
we talk about raising Jordan,
a military child, without
Charles and her story. I was

We know that happiness is
none of these. We also soon
discover that our status in life,
our surroundings or our 401K

and extent of our happiness.

Still time to see Feeding the Tides of Change


Over the past two week-
ends and continuing
this weekend, Feeding
the Tides of Change, Camden
County's fourth annual pro-
duction from the Cultural
Heritage Production organi-
zation, Crooked Rivers, has
and will offer entertainment
and insight for residents and
visitors.
Most importantly, the proj-
ect has, since its inception,
been a labor of love and an
investment in our commu-
nity's heritage by perform-
ers and audiences. From its
beginnings during the local
economic trials early in this
decade, Crooked Rivers has
targeted community building,
with the hope that its future
will grow into a force for eco-
nomic and cultural develop-
ment.
This process and invest-
ment is not unique to
Camden County or coastal
Georgia. It is occurring across
the nation, in small towns
and metropolitan areas alike.
In past columns, I have writ-
ten about the phenomenon
of cultural heritage tourism


and the economic impact it
has where it takes root and
flourishes. Data collected by
Americans for the Arts indi-
cates that the national impact
of such programs is millions
of dollars in sales revenue for
local businesses, as well as
tax revenue for local govern-
ments. There is also clear evi-
dence that cultural heritage
development creates jobs and
improves cultural investment
in communities.
For these reasons, one
aspect of our local efforts is
troubling. After more than six
years of organization, plan-


ning and work, and four years
of creating and producing
high-quality productions,
Crooked Rivers still does not
have a home, not even a tem-
porary home. The group has
attempted to produce its pro-
grams across the county, in
Crooked Rivers State Park, in
Woodbine at the elementary
school and in St. Marys, last
year in an open space next
to the antique mall, and this
year in a long-empty church
on Osborne Street. In between
spring shows, the group also
produced fall reprise perfor-
mances in the high school
auditorium.
From the beginning,
Crooked Rivers' members
played a vital role in attempts
to revitalize and repurpose
the old theater in Woodbine
as a potential home base.
But that process is slow mov-
ing and has only long-term
prospects of realization.
Every year, while the cast is
preparing and the artists are
designing, Crooked Rivers
has struggled to find a place
to create its magic. And that
is a shame. In a community


where empty building space
is plentiful, why is this valu-
able asset still begging for a
place with which to identify
and call home right now?
There are so many ways that
this could work donations,
considerations and favorable
leases with tax advantages
for assistance to a non-profit
are just the beginning of ways
that landlords could use to
address this issue.
One wonders what it takes
for someone to step up and
at least start such discus-
sions with the Crooked Rivers
organizers. If you want to take
that step, I am sure that the
Crooked Rivers board will
hold out their hand to you.
Meanwhile, don't forget to
attend Crooked Rivers' fourth
annual performance, Feeding
the Tides of Change, at 7 p.m.,
March 6 and 7 and at 2 p.m.,
March 7. Performances are
at 1828 Osborne St. in St.
Marys, the building previously
occupied by Assembly of God
Church. Tickets are $10 and
will be available at the door.

me to share with readers, send me a

senior officials who paid trib-
ute to the crew of the USS
Wyoming Trident strategic
missile submarine during at
Naval Submarine Base Kings
Bay Feb. 19.
The USS Wyoming finished
its 38th patrol on Feb. 11,
marking the 1,000th complet-
ed patrol of a Trident subma-
rine since the first, the USS
Ohio, embarked on its initial
patrol in October 1982.
The Wyoming was commis-
sioned in July 1996 and began
its first patrol in August 1997.
Secretary of the Navy Donald
C. Winter said he was honored


to participate in the commem-
oration of the 1,000th Trident
patrol, noting the occasion
"is a great day for our Navy
and our nation:' U.S. Rep. Jack
Kingston (R-Ga.) also attended
the ceremony.
Although the world has
experienced many conflicts
since the end of World War II
in 1945, Winter said, America's
strategic deterrent "has
ensured that none of them
became major wars."
The Navy's Trident force
"forms a credible deterrent"
to prevent major conflict and
promote peace, Winter said,
"because it provides high
measures of reliability, avail-
ability and survivability."
Trident submariners "sup-
port a noble mission" and
"should be proud" of their


efforts, Winter said.
The Trident submarines
and the sailors that crew them
provide "the most capable
and most credible deterrent
that this nation has to offer,"
said Marine Gen. James E.
Cartwright, the vice chairman
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Cartwright also praised
the home-front efforts of the
spouses of Trident submari-
ners, as well as the spouses of
all servicemembers.
"Without them, we could not
do our job," Cartwright said
of military spouses' contribu-
tions. "They deserve our eter-
nal gratefulness as a nation."'
Chief of Naval Operations
Adm. Gary Roughead arrived
at King's Bay after visiting with
other Trident submariners
and families based at the Navy


patro

installation in Bangor, Wash.
The Trident force can trace
its legacy to the Polaris nucle-
ar missile submarine program
developed in the late 1950s
to counter the Soviet nuclear
threat, Roughead said.
"What we needed was a
credible deterrent, a stealthy
deterrent; a deterrent that
could survive any attack,
regardless of what was thrown
at us and one that would not
be defeated," Cartwright said
of the U.S. decision to intro-
duce the Polaris submarines.
The world changed great-
ly in the intervening years,
Cartwright said. Yet, "the one
thing that hasn't changed, and
the one thing we continue to
need," he said, "is that strong,
stealthy, formidable, confi-
dent deterrent" that Trident

New camouflage uniforms expected in April


By MC2 (AW/SW) Marcel
A. Barbeau
Navy Region Southeast Public Affairs
During a tour of the
Jacksonville tri-base area,
Master Chief Petty Officer of
the Navy (SS/SW) Rick West
visited RearAdmiralTownsend
G. Alexander, Commander,
Navy Region Southeast Feb.
20, sporting a different look for
the Navy.
With the new working uni-
form expected to be released
for wear in the Southeast in
April 2009, local Sailors had
their chance to see the camou-
flage uniform.
"I think this could help
improve Sailors' morale," said
CMDCM(SW/AW) Joseph H.
Curtin, Regional Command
Master Chief, Navy Region
Southeast. "The feedback
we're getting from many
Sailors is that they're excited
and can't wait to wear it"
Curtin said the new uniform
is extremely easy to maintain.
"It's very comfortable," he
said. "Pull it out of the dryer,
shake it out and put it on."
Curtin said he thinks the
uniform better shows the Navy
as a fighting force.

Chief (AW/SW) Kristin Armstrong, Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy (SS/SW) Rick West
and Lt. Sarah Thompson show the new working uniform during West's visit to CNRSE on board
Naval Air Station Jacksonville.


"I think it's a better appear-
ance for a fighting force, as
opposed to the utilities that
are popularly known as a
mechanic's uniform," Curtin
said.
Many Sailors agree and are
excited about the release of
the new uniform.
"I like the new uniforms,"
said Yeoman Third Class
Anthony Mitchell, of CNRSE
Flag Admin. "It has a profes-
sional military look, and I'm
excited about them coming
out."
"I think it's a fantastic uni-
form," said Quarter Master
Third Class Abraham Velez,
CNRSE assistant building
manager. "I agree it identifies
us better as a military force."
West said the new uniform
reflects the Navy's profession-
alism.
"I think it's an outstanding
uniform;'," he said. "It's a pro-
fessional reflection of who we
are as we progress as a Navy."
One of the looming ques-
tions Sailors have is when will
they be able to wear the new
uniform in public. During his
visit to NAS Jacksonville, West
provided an answer.
"That's up to the Sailors


wearing it'" West said. "When
Sailors show their chief petty
officers that the uniform is
worn correctly, and when the
force master chief comes to
me and says, All of our Sailors
are properly trained,' then I'm
more than willing to make a
recommendation to the Chief
of Naval Operations that we
consider revising the policy on
manner of wear."
The uniform change result-
ed from a survey released sev-
eral years ago that showed the
majority of Sailors wanted a
camouflage uniform.
"This was part of the sur-
vey," Curtin said. "A large por-
tion of the Sailors said, 'We
want camouflage. All the other
services have it, why don'twe?'
The leadership agreed, we did
extensive testing, and the Navy
came up with this uniform."
According to the new uni-
form instruction, additional
money for the clothing allow-
ance will be reflected on
Sailors' Leave and Earnings
Statements beginning in fiscal
year 2009 and ending in fiscal
year 2010.
Sailors have until December
of 2010 to transition to the new
uniform.


Custody can be moving issue


By Cynthia L. Catalan

Moving from one duty sta-
tion to another is a fact of life
for all active duty military per-
sonnel. For those families with
minor children, each move
requires early planning to
assure that the children have
adequate housing, satisfactory
child care and advance school
enrollments.
If the children are the subject
of a custody, visitation or time-
sharing court order, the mov-
ing parent has additional obli-

him. He took the time to talk
to them about how much he
misses them and wishes that
he could get to talk to them
and see them everyday. He
then told them that the sub-
marine doesn't have a phone
cord long enough to reach the
shore and that he has to stay
under the water, so he can't
come up to see them either.
But, here is the good
part. He then explained that
all they have to do is wish
to get love from dad by hug-
ging their bear. And he (dad)
would send them something
special that night while they
were asleep.
Both the kids were a little
confused the first night, but
when they woke up, they were
the happiest I have ever seen
them during a patrol. They
woke up to find a simple
folded piece of paper under
their pillows with a drawing
on it signed by their dad. Ev-
ery night after, they would
say their prayers and I could
hear them telling their "wish
bears" how much they missed
their dad and every morning a
new picture was there.
My son was only 5 when
we started this I remember
how he came running into my
room and shouted, "Mommy!
Mommy! Daddy sent me
mail from his boat under the
water, and it's not even wet!"
It was amazing. He was so
happy, and the bad thoughts
of patrols and dad being gone
were quickly replaced with
excitement and happiness.
Now, my son is 9 and
knows that it isn't magic, but
my husband still writes him
notes instead of pictures and
I place them by his pillow at
night. He keeps quiet about
his intelligence, so that his lit-


gations to make certain that
they meet all requirements of
the court order and the laws of
the state which rendered the
order before the move takes
place. Even if the court order
does not address the possibil-
ity of a future move, state law
may require that the parents
fulfill certain obligations prior
to the move. Failure to com-
ply with these laws may not
only result in conflict between
parents but also harsh legal
tie sister who is 6 still believes
that when she makes a wish,
her daddy hears it and sends
her love.
So, yes, my husband would
draw simple pictures and/or
write notes. He would do it
before he left, sometimes
making copies or using pic-
tures he found on the Web. He
let them know that it would
only work if they went to sleep
at night thinking about all the
fun stuff that they would do
when he got home. I would
slip the pictures under their
pillow every night.
It really isn't time consum-
ing at all. It has been worth
every moment. Of course I
have had to make a few pic-
tures myself for dad if they
ran out, and every once in a
while I would forget to put
them under their pillow and
have to tell them that they
must have lost the note in
their covers as I quickly get
a note/picture and slip it in
their bed as we look.
This is something that I
have shared with many wives
who have tried it and loved
it. You can get creative and
use a piece of candy, gum
or small gift. The kids would
even draw pictures for dad
and put them under the pil-
low, which I would collect
and put in a folder for my
husband. When he came
home, he'd get the folder,
stick it in his sea bag and call
the kids to our room where he
would pull it out and tell them
thank you for the great pic-
tures they sent to him. They
ate it up!
I hope that this makes
someone's patrol a little
better. We have done this for
years. My son still keeps his
bear with him, and the great-
est part is that it works where
ever you are.

give blood

By P01 Christopher

Public Affairs Detachment,
Jacksonville, Fla.

Guardians assigned to Coast
Guard Sector Jacksonville,
Fla., willingly took time out of
their busy schedules to donate
blood to the Blood Alliance,
a local non-profit community
blood bank, Feb. 25.
The blood donated by these
Guardians will help patients
at hospitals throughout the
First Coast. Those patients
include acute burn victims,
cancer patients suffering from
Leukemia and for those with
catastrophic diseases such as
hemophilia.
"Giving blood is such a sim-
ple process;'," said Coast Guard
Cmdr. James McLaughlin,
chief of prevention for Sector
Jacksonville. "Donating blood
is the least we can do to help
out our community."
The need for blood is crucial.
According to the American
Red Cross, only three out of
every 100 people in the United
States donate blood.
"There is a shortage of
blood," said Penny E. Godbee,

Situations ranged from rec-

"Overall, we maintained a

we practiced our preplanned

"We were taking actions, liter-

and Kings Bay Naval Base, Ga.,
within a 13-minute timeframe
to intensify the essence of the
mock attacks.
"We had some interest-

McCormick. "The scope of SC/

Tax Assistance

The First Time Homebuyer
Credit is a somewhat unusual
credit.
It operates much like an
interest-free loan which you
generally must repay over a
15-year period. The credit is
the smaller of $7,500 or $3,500
if married filing separately,
or 10 percent of the purchase
price of the home. There are
income limitations. You get
the full benefit if your modi-
fied adjusted gross income is
$75,000 or less, $150,000 or
less if married filing jointly
and, despite its name, does not
really require that the qualify-
ing house, houseboat, condo
or trailer be the very first one
that you ever bought. It does
require that the house be your
principal residence, and you
did not own any other main
home during the three-year
period ending on the date of
purchase.
This credit also does not
cover the whole year. You
qualify if you bought your
home after April 8, 2008.
This an unusual credit
in that there is a recapture
period. Uncle Sam wants his

money back, albeit over a long
time. The repayment rules
for now are that you gener-
ally must repay the credit over
a 15-year period in 15 equal
installments.
The recapture period begins
two years after the year in
which you claimed the credit.
If you claim the credit on your
2008 tax return, the recapture
period begins in 2010, and you
must include the first install-
ment as additional tax on your
2010 tax return. Further, if you
home ceases to be your main
home before the 15-year peri-
od is up, you must include all
remaining annual installments
as additional tax on the return
for the tax year that happens.
This includes situations where
you sell the home or convert it
to business or rental property.
As of now there is no mili-
tary-specific exception to this
requirement.
The government expects this
to be an area ripe for tweaking
in future tax/stimulus pack-
ages, so stand by.

March Save Your Vision Month


From the Naval Hospital Jacksonville
Optometry Clinic

In honor of March's designa-
tion as Save Your Vision Month,
Naval Hospital Jacksonville's
Optometry Clinic wants to
remindyou that caring foryour
eyes includes paying attention
to nutrition.
Approximately 43 million
Americans suffer from age-
related macular degeneration
or cataracts, the two lead-
ing causes of vision loss and
blindness. Based on research
from multiple studies, there is
a strong correlation between
good nutrition and the preven-
tion of these age-related eye
diseases. By eating foods rich
in seven nutrients lutein,
zeaxanthin, omega-3 fatty
acids, vitamins A, C, and E,
and zinc you can help pro-
tect your eye sight and vision.
"Basic and clinical research
has shown that nutrients in
eye-healthy foods can lower
the risk of vision loss," said
Dr. Todd Lauby, department


head of Optometry. "While
vision loss may not occur until
your senior years, I recom-
mend specific nutrients to all
my patients. I also emphasize
the necessity of wearing UV-
blocking sunglasses outdoors
as well as smoking cessation
in order to help prevent future
vision loss due to certain eye
diseases."
The American Optometric
Association recommends eat-
inga dietwith a variety of foods
loaded with key nutrients for
maintaining and improving
eye health. Avoid hydroge-
nated fats and eat a well-bal-
anced diet that includes the
currently recommended five
to nine servings of fruits and
vegetables a day whenever
possible.
The following foods contain
key nutrients for eye health:
Lutein and zeaxanthin:
Colorful fruits and vegetables
such as broccoli, spinach,


kale, corn, green beans, peas,
oranges, and tangerines
M Essential fatty acids: Fish
like tuna, salmon, sardines,
trout or herring, whole grain
foods, flax seed, lean meats,
and eggs
Vitamin A: Liver, carrots,
sweet potatoes, spinach, man-
gos, and fortified milk
Vitamin C: Fruits and veg-
etables, including oranges,
grapefruit, strawberries, papa-
ya, green peppers, and toma-
toes
MVitamin E: Vegetable oils,
such as safflower or corn oil,
almonds, pecans, sweet pota-
toes, and sunflower seeds
Zinc: Red meat, poultry,
liver, shellfish, milk, baked
beans, and whole grains
Dr. Lauby recommends
consuming these nutrients
through food instead of pill
form; however, in some cases,
dietary supplements may be
necessary. Always consult
your primary care provider
before taking any dietary sup-
plements.


Trident

From Page 1
Maryland also was carrying a
group of journalists, who early
on Feb. 15 had been conveyed
by tugboat to the Maryland
for a two-day orientation tour.
During the journalists' visit,
the submarine would be sub-
merged for 24 hours.
A nuclear-powered Trident
submarine like the Maryland
produces its own drinking
water and oxygen, and, there-
fore can remain submerged
nearly indefinitely, Grimes
said, needing to surface only
to take on food.
The Maryland's lead culinary
specialist, Chief Petty Officer
Tony L. Thompson, 40, said
he and his staff prepare food
for about 120 crew members
during the course of the day.
Submariners, he said, enjoy
the best food in the Navy.


"We do all we can to make
them comfortable down
here;'," Thompson said of his
team's efforts to provide the
best meals possible for the
Maryland's crew.
Thompson, a 20-year Navy
veteran, said he enjoys the
"close-knitted" camarade-
rie that's part of duty aboard
submarines such as the
Maryland.
"I couldwalkaround and talk
to anybody around here," said
Thompson, as he enjoyed a
plate of prime rib. "Everything
is 'one' crew ... because you've
got to depend on everybody.
"I'm a cook," Thompson
said, "but at the same time, I
can go and put out a fire."
Near the end of the journal-
ists' visit, the submarine sur-
faced to make its rendezvous
with the tugboat that would
return them to shore.
A cloudless, bright-blue
sky stretched across the hori-
zon as Lt. j.g. Eric S. Spurling,


Petty Officer 2nd Class Kyle G.
Fulmer and Seaman DeAngelo
Jackson Adams pulled watch
duty on the bridge atop the
Maryland's sail panel, or
uppermost structure. The
day's temperature was unsea-
sonably mild.
Submariners belong to
"a real tight community" of
sailors who perform a vital,
unique mission, said Fulmer,
23, from Dillon, S.C.
"You have to be able to trust
everybody with your life. ...
Any time, anything could go
wrong, and if you're beside it,
you have to be ready to act on
it;' Fulmer said.
Adams, a 21-year-old sailor
from Detroit, cracked a sliver
of a smile at his machine-gun
station as the breeze batted at
his orange windbreaker.
Adams said he loves the sail-
or's life aboard the Maryland.
"The mission of being out to
sea, under water, is just cool,
you know?" he said.

THE PERISCOPE, NSB KINGS BAY, Thursday, March 5, 2009 9


Why did you decide to join the Coast Guard? think about our question of the week.


Every military branch has its pros and its cons. The Coast
Guard is not as well known to many in the Navy or
Marine Corps. It's the smallest of all service branches.
But, the Coast Guard provide a unique and needed services.
The Coast Guards missions are listed as maritime safety,


maritime security, maritime mobility, national defense and
protection of natural resources. They perform these missions
not only on the coasts, but also on major rivers throughout the
United States and lakes, including the Great Lakes. Lake Tahoe
has a Coast Guard station. So does Keokuk, Iowa.


Coast Guard members stationed here are part of the
Maritime Force Protection Unit, providing security and man-
ning vessels that escort our submarines.
Why do people choose to join the Coast Guard? I went in
search of some answers.

Navy develops


stranding response


By Tracey Moriarty
Chief of Naval Operations
Environmental Readiness Division
The National Marine
Fisheries Service and the
Navy finalized January 2009
marine-mammal-stranding
response plans for three of the
Navy's largest training areas:
the Hawaii Range Complex,
the Southern California Range
Complex and the Atlantic Fleet
Active Sonar Training area.
Similar stranding response
plans will be developed for
the Navy's 10 remaining "at-
sea" major training ranges and
operating areas.
Every year approximately
3,500 marine mammals strand
on U.S. coasts. In many cases,
the causes of these strandings
can notbe determined, though
common causes include dis-
ease, fishery entanglements
and ship strikes.
"We are looking forward
to working with the National
Marine Fisheries Service on
implementing these stranding
plans," said John Quinn, depu-
ty director of the Chief of Naval
Operations Environmental
Readiness Division. "We want
to know why strandings occur.
Understanding the causes will
help scientists understand
how these unfortunate events
can be prevented or reduced
in number."
Though the stranding
response plans were devel-
oped to meet the unique

Vet recalls

Iwo Jima

flag raising

By Sgt. Michael S.
Cifuentes
Headquarters Marine Corps

Sixty-four years ago on Feb.
23, 1945, U.S. Marines stormed
the sands of Iwo Jima and
raised the American flag atop
Mount Suribachi.
In honor of the 64th anniver-
sary of that historic event, doz-
ens of spectators and Marines,
including nine individuals
who fought in the Battle of Iwo
Jima, gathered at the Marine
Corps War Memorial Feb. 23
for a flag-raising ceremony.
One of the Iwo Jima veterans
present at the event acted as a
forward observer during the
battle, calling for and guiding
indirect artillery fire from the
island.
"The [flag-raising] brings
back so many memories," said
former Pfc. James Wheeler, a
Falls Church, Va., native. "It
gave me goose bumps all over
to see that flag go up again."
Wheeler also said Feb. 23


requirements of the specific
training areas, they do share
certain features:
If Navy personnel find a
stranded marine mammal, the
Navy will contact the National
Marine Fisheries Service as
soon as possible and provide
any available information
about the animal's location
and condition.
Upon request, the Navy
will help the National Marine
Fisheries Service and local
marine mammal stranding
networks respond to a marine
mammal stranding.
If a stranded marine
mammal is discovered dur-
ing a major training event,
the National Marine Fisheries
Service will determine wheth-
er the stranding qualifies as an
"uncommon stranding event,"
such as two or more strand-
ed marine mammals that
are not mother and calf. For
uncommon stranding events
involving a live or freshly dead
marine mammal, the Navy will
temporarily cease any use of
active sonar or explosives to
avoid exposing stranded or
injured marine mammals to
additional stress.
The Navy and the National
Marine Fisheries Service will
also develop agreements
that enable the Navy to assist
National Marine Fisheries
Service investigations of
uncommon stranding events.
Navy assistance could include
transportation of marine

mammals or response person-
nel via aircraft, boat or truck,
use of Navy property for nec-
ropsies or burial, assistance
with aerial surveys and other
support as available.
When asked whether the
stranding response plans
place an unreasonable burden
on Navy Sailors and Marines,
Tom Fetherston, special assis-
tant for marine science at the

should be an important date
everyone should remember
because a lot of Marines sac-
rificed their lives for that vic-
tory.
Before the ceremony's con-
clusion, the Iwo Jima veterans
placed a wreath at the base of
the memorial to pay homage
to those who were killed dur-
ing the battle.
The Marine Corps War
Memorial was sculpted by
Felix de Weldon, using the
iconic flag-raising photograph
shot by Associated Press pho-


tographer Joe Rosenthal. The
memorial was officially dedi-
cated Nov. 10, 1954, on the
Corps' birthday by President
Dwight D. Eisenhower.
"This war memorial is a
reflection of all Marine sac-
rifices. Not just the Marines
who fought at Iwo Jima, but
Marines who fought years
before that, years after that and
today," said Michael Kessler,
national executive director for
the Young Marines National
Headquarters and a retired
Marine colonel.

Chief of Naval Operations
Environmental Readiness
Division, responded he did
not think so.
"Many of the requirements
listed in the stranding response
plans are just codifying the
types of things that the Navy
has already been asked to do
on a case-by-case basis. These
plans simply provide a consis-
tent process," Fetherston said.


"We are hopeful that hav-
ing a consistent process will
enable scientists to obtain
additional and better data
to assist in marine mammal
research, which is a major pri-
ority for the Navy."
The Navy provides a signifi-
cant amount of funding and
support for marine mammal
research. For example, the
Navy provided $26 million in


fiscal year 2008 alone, and has
funded about $100 million over
the past five years. The Navy
will continue to fund ongoing
marine mammal research, and
is planning to coordinate long
term monitoring and studies
of marine mammals on estab-
lished ranges and operating
areas.
