The commissary at Naval Base Ven-
tura County (NBVC) Port Hueneme will
close for 11 Mondays starting July 8 as a
result of the furlough caused by seques-
tration.
Were working to continue supporting
Fleet, Fighter and Family, said Capt.
Larry Vasquez, NBVCs commanding
officer, but with our dedicated civilian
workforce taking a 20 percent cut in hours
each week, its going to be tough.

Navy triathletes made history Saturday, June 1,
when both the mens and womens teams took home
gold medals at the Armed Forces Triathlon Cham-
pionship at Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC)
Point Mugu.
The mens team repeated last years gold medal
victory, but this was the first time the womens team
finished in first place, and coach Jim Felty was ec-
static.
Weve never won! he said, fist-pumping the air.
Weve never been above third! This is a deep, deep
team.

Question: Why were some classes at the gyms on
base cut and others kept? My favorite Zumba class
was cut and so was another really good step aero-
bics class. I heard it was related to budget cuts, but
it doesnt seem fair that some instructors had classes
taken away and others got to keep theirs.
Answer: Thank you for the opportunity to address
your concerns. The impacts of the continuing resolu-
tion and budget cuts known as sequestration affect
many areas of military life, including Morale, Welfare
and Recreation (MWR) activities and facilities, like
the gyms. As a result of mandated reductions in gym
hours from Commander, Navy Installations Com-
mand, MWR has had to make diffcult cuts. While we
recognize such decisions are not always popular, we
have put careful consideration into every decision.
To limit the impact across the installation, we have
carefully examined utilization rates across the servic-
es and classes provided. For example, the 4:30 p.m.
Zumba class averaged approximately 13 more patrons
than the 6:30 p.m. class, so we kept the earlier class.
Ultimately, we have to make the decisions that
impact our Sailors and families the least, so when
the mandated cuts were frst proposed, we chose to
reduce duplicate classes by cancelling the least used
sessions. These kinds of decisions are never easy to
make, but please know that the primary criteria we
used was how many people actually used the service.
For popular classes like Zumba, this was diffcult
because classes were all used with regularity, but we
were required to eliminate duplication frst to main-
tain variety across the facility.
Do you have a question for me? You can submit via
this forum at lighthouse@navy.mil, online using the
COs Suggestion Box at http://cnic.navy.mil/ventura/
index.htm or at www.Facebook.com/NavalBaseVen-
turaCounty. You can also follow NBVC on Twitter at

Something wasnt right.
The old Quonset huts that once housed
the Seabee Museum at Naval Base Ven-
tura County (NBVC) Port Hueneme were
boarded up and empty.
So why was the buildings smart util-
ity meter showing that electricity was still
being used on the property?
Mike Wiltshire, NBVCs resource effi-
ciency manager, called up MuseumDirec-
tor Lara Godbille and the two of them
tracked down the problem. Some lights
and circuit breakers had been left on.
But even after they shut them off, elec-
tricity usage was still showing up just
a small amount, from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m.
every day. Wiltshire explored further, and
it turned out the perimeter lights were still
turning on automatically.
Once they were turned off, the meter
showed no energy usage at all.
Cost savings to the base: $5,000 a
year.
The 300 smart meters that have been
installed at various facilities across the
base have turned Wiltshire into a modern-
day detective. Every month, he scans me-
ter readings, looking for after-hours en-
ergy use and spikes that make no sense.
At the Seabee Golf Clubhouse, Bldg.
1537 at Port Hueneme, smartmeter data
showed a ridiculous surge in electricity
usage starting at 4 a.m. It turned out the
buildings thermostats had never been
properly programmed, and cooling equip-
ment was turning on at 4 a.m. and then
running nonstop until 10 p.m. seven days
a week. Equipment schedules and ther-
mostats were adjusted.
Cost savings to the base: $10,000 a
year.
The same thing happened at Port Hue-
nemes Bldg. 1300. An analysis of smart
meter data showed that cooling equipment
was running on weekends and creating
excessive cooling during daytime hours.
Again, equipment schedules and thermo-
stats were adjusted.
Cost savings to the base: $20,000 a
year.

Summer hours at the Naval Base Ven-
tura County aquatic centers at Port Hue-
neme and Point Mugu begin June 17.
In addition, summer swim classes and
a four-week junior lifeguard program be-
gin July 8, and kids surf clinics start July
20. The Seals youth swim team is on hia-
tus.
I am very happy that we can offer a
summer program at both pools, said
Aquatics Manager Gerry Legaspi. Teach-
ing kids to swim is very important and
so is teaching adults.
Summer hours are shorter at both cen-
ters this year than in the past due to staff
reductions. Instead of being open all day,
the pools are closing for two to three hours
in the morning when swim lessons take
place.
Starting June 17, the Port Hueneme
pool will be open from 6 to 8 a.m. (lap
swimming only) and from 11 a.m. to 7
p.m. Monday through Friday and from
noon to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
Pools dive into summer with new hours, lessons

EO3 (SCW) Cristina Tommeraasen cries as she hugs Navy veteran Billye Grymwade after
the Battle of Midway commemoration June 4 at Naval Base Ventura County, Point Mugu.
Sixteen residents of a veterans home in
Ventura were the guests of honor Tuesday,
June 4, as Naval Base Ventura County
(NBVC) commemorated the 71st anniver-
sary of the Battle of Midway, considered to
be the turning point in World War IIs Pa-
cific Theater.
In front of NBVC Point Mugus head-
quarters building, Capt. Larry Vasquez,
commanding officer of the base, and Com-
mand Master Chief Thomas Cyr spoke of
the American ingenuity, determination and
courage that led to Americas victory those
many years ago.
After a wreath-laying ceremony and a
benediction, the veterans, many using walk-
ers and canes, chatted at length with their
modern-day counterparts, most of whom
were at least half a century younger.
For some, it was an emotional moment.
Its just such an honor to meet a woman
who served in World War II, said Equip-
ment Operator 3rd Class (SCW) Cristina
Tommeraasen, who cried after meeting
WWII veteranBillye Grymwade. She made
it possible for me to serve now.
Grymwade was in the Navy for six years
beginning in 1943.
The Battle of Midway took place June
4-7 near the Midway Atoll, 1,000 miles
northwest of Hawaii. Armed with a secret
weaponinformationobtainedfromcode
breakers the United States was prepared
for the Japanese attack that included four
Japanese aircraft carriers, all of whichwould
be destroyed by the end of the three-day
battle.
While losses were massive on both sides,
Midway was a decisive victory for the Unit-
ed States, which seized the offensive in the
Pacific Theater shortly afterward. The Japa-
nese lost 292 aircraft and 4,800 men, in ad-
dition to the four carriers. The Americans
lost one carrier, 145 aircraft and 307 men.
We showedthe worldwhat anAmerican
Sailor can do,Vasquez said.
He talkedof the Sailors strengthof char-
acter andfirmness of their resolveandsaid
that everyone involved in the event from
the shipyardworkers whomade the aircraft
carriers that wouldfight inthat battle tothe
pilots who took off fromthe decks of those
carriers providedthe ultimate statement
of our character and determination.
Thinkabout if it hadgonetheother way,
Vasquez noted. The United States would
be very different than it is today.
He thanked the veterans for attending.
We are forever in their debt,he told the
active duty Sailors in the audience.
Vasquez and Cyr then took part in a
wreath-laying ceremony, together with Air
Traffic Controller 3rd Class Corey Padgitt
of NBVC Air Operations and Air Traffic
Controller 1st Class Tanisha Williams, also
of Air Operations.
Whenthe ceremonyended, the active-duty
Sailors formed a line to shake hands with
the visiting vets and to thank themfor their
service.

With school out for the summer, a chal-
lenge many families face is how to keep
children busy. Although youngsters may
be happy sitting in front of a television
or computer screen, adults know there
are far better ways for themto spend their
time. Getting out of the house and find-
ing local places to visit is one option, but
trying to stay busy on a budget can also
be a challenge. So, how can parents keep
kids busy doing something educational
and fun, but also not spend too much
money?
This is where the Blue Star Museums
program comes in.
The Blue Star Museums program is a
collaboration among the National En-
dowment for the Arts, Blue Star Families,
the Department of Defense and more
than 2,000 museums across America.
First launched in the summer of 2010,
the program offers free admission to all
active duty military personnel and their
families from Memorial Day through
Labor Day Sept. 2 this year.
The best way to find participating mu-
seums is to visit the Blue Star Families
website at www.bluestarfam.org.
Here are some local museums on the
list that you might be interested in visit-
ing.
Carnegie Art Museum, Oxnard
Located in a historical landmark build-
ing, the Carnegie Art Museum features
exhibits of contemporary artists working
in all styles of art, from traditional to
non-objective. The museum features
traveling quarterly exhibits as well as a
permanent collection. This summer, the
Carnegie Art Musuem will feature an
exhibition of Christine Morla called Ka-
leidoscope Gaze, a series of mixed-media
paintings that celebrates and reflects the
diverse cultural landscape of Oxnard.
Each piece consists of hundreds of two
dimensional paper constructions adhered
to a wood panel, creating a larger image.
The paintings are built with discarded,
multi-colored packaging from Filipino
snack foods that are cut into thin strips
and meticulously woven together into
geometric and floral shapes.
For more information on the museum,
call (805) 385-8157.
Channel Islands Maritime Museum,
Oxnard
The Channel Islands Maritime Mu-
seum of Ventura County is a cultural and
scenic haven in the Channel Islands Har-
bor, complete with world-class maritime
art, ship models and ocean breezes. Per-
manent exhibitions include art of the sea,
a Chinese Treasure Fleet exhibition, a
history of the local shipwreck in 1970 of
La Jenelle,a history of the Port of Hue-
neme, ship models and the history of the
whaling industry.
For more information, call 805-984-
6260.
Museum of Ventura County, Ventura
The Museum of Ventura County cel-
ebrates, preserves and interprets the art,
history and culture of Ventura County,
the California Channel Islands and the
surrounding region through its collec-
tions, exhibitions, events, educational
programs, publications and its research
library. It also operates an agricultural
museum in nearby Santa Paula. With
permanent and changing exhibitions,
programs and events, the Agriculture
Museum celebrates the long and innova-
tive agricultural history of our region.
The three museums mentioned are only
a few of the many available to military
families. More are in Ventura County and
neighboring Santa Barbara and Los An-
geles counties. Visit the Blue Star Fami-
lies website for more information.

Have you ever been super-stressed? Im
talking pull out the hair, shout real loud,
get in a fetal position and cry stressed?
If youre honest (and normal) then your
answer is yes, and you can empathize.
Heres my situation.
I recently returned from deployment,
and as a showof gratitude toward my wife
for all her hard work, I committed to do
all the laundry for the next seven weeks.
Its not too stressful, and it makes me feel
like a saint.
Then, after being home and coping with
laundry for a few weeks, I sent her on a
trip for five days to see friends a reward
for spending the last three months straight
with the kids.
During that time, I took my two kids to
Legoland and the stress began to
build.
After Legoland, a flat tire, poor nutri-
tion, endless Interstate 5 traffic and sev-
eral I want Mommystatements, my wife
came home.
The stress should have subsided, but
then the reality of my permanent change
of station (PCS) move hit.
Ill be serving at the chapel in Guanta-
namo Bay, Cuba. The coordination of a
CONUS PCS is hard enough, but over-
seas? Holy cow! The reality of how long
it will take for our stuff to arrive and how
long well be living out of suitcases and
with no vehicle is a reality Im struggling
to embrace. Not to mention I have many
house guests to entertain during this sea-
son of transition in-laws included.
Its times like this that I feel over-
whelmed, too burdened, stressed to a
breaking point and a little crabby. What
started as a season of blessing and play
has become a season of anxiety and wor-
ry.
Dont think that I as a chaplain am try-
ing to overspiritualize this situation, but
the Bible does have something to say for
times such as this and for people like
us.
The Apostle Paul understood that stress
can make us second guess our commit-
ments and loyalties. Therefore, when he
was encouraging a young group of Chris-
tians who were facing some challenging
situations, his words brought hope then
and they still do today. In Philippians 4:4-
7 he writes:
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say
it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be
evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not
be anxious about anything, but in every-
thing, by prayer and petition, with thanks-
giving, present your requests to God. And
the peace of God, which transcends all
understanding, will guard your hearts and
your minds in Christ Jesus.
This is what I want and need: the peace
of God. Too often I forget what it feels
like, and I allow the pressures of life to
consume me.
Oh, and Paul wrote this from prison. If
he can rejoice while awaiting the death
penalty, then I can surely rejoice while
PCSing to the tropics as a free man.
Feeling stressed? Youre not alone, and Bible can help

By Alyce Moncourtois
NSWC PHD
Having grown up in the Oxnard
area, Rear Adm. Victorino Vic
Mercado, vice director of Strat-
egy, Plans and Policy (J5) for U.S.
Central Command, returned to
familiar surroundings May 23,
serving as the guest speaker for
Naval Surface Warfare Center,
Port Hueneme Divisions (NSWC
PHD) Asian American and Pa-
cific Islander Heritage Month
event at the Bard Mansion, Naval
Base Ventura County, Port Hue-
neme.
Its nice to return to this area
where I grewup, to visit with fam-
ily, and deliver an important mes-
sage relative to this months Asian
theme, Building Leadership: Em-
bracing Cultural Values and In-
clusion, said Mercado, who is
of Filipino descent.
This years theme about lead-
ership is why Im here today, he
explained. It started early on
when I was in the local school
system as some of you know,
I attended Blackstock and
Channel Islands High School.
He said those schools prepared
him for future leadership roles
and piqued his interest in the Na-
val Academy, from which he
graduated in 1983.
However,he said, there were
not a lot of Filipinos at the acad-
emy at that time and now,
there is an Asian cultural club on
campus.
He commented that the estab-
lishment of Asian clubs and
Asian cultural celebrations was a
significant and important change
that he has seen over time.
Mercado stated that role mod-
els also play a pivotal role in help-
ing to build leaders.
You need to have people to
look up to, said Mercado, and
there are many good Asian role
models in the Navy.
Mercado identified the late
Sen. Daniel Inouye, a World War
II war hero, as one of the most
influential and positive role mod-
els of Asian descent.
He was a lieutenant in the
Army and fought throughout
Europe, putting his life on the line
to save others, said Mercado.
He lost his right arm and was
later awarded the Medal of Hon-
or, the nations highest military
decoration.
Mercado explained that the
Medal of Honor did not come
easily. At that time in American
history, Asian Americans were
still subject to discrimination,
and it wasnt until the issue was
resolved under then-President
Bill Clinton that the original Dis-
tinguished Service Cross was
changed to a Medal of Honor.
Mercado said the reason he
pointed this out is because he too
embraces the fight for equal rights
for military personnel, Asian or
otherwise. He said he wants to
see equality and fairness ap-
plied when it comes to all military
matters.
Mercado asked the audience,
So, howare we doing with inclu-
sion of Asians in the Navy, and
is the Navy a true reflection of
society?
The answer, he says: It de-
pends.
According to Mercado, statis-
tics show that when it comes to
enlisted personnel, the answer is
yes, but the numbers fall short
when it comes to officers. This,
he says, is something we need to
change.

AIMING TO QUALIFY
Seabee Museumreduces hours
loughs and a staffing shortage.
The museum sustained a 25 percent cut
in its workforce going from four full-
time positions to three and that is forc-
ing the closures, Museum Director Lara
Godbille explained.
The fourth position was a temporary
one that was converted to a permanent
one earlier this year, but because of the
hiring freeze, it couldnt be filled. When
the freeze is lifted, she said, she plans to
make a hire and resume normal hours.
In the meantime, she is concerned about
the effect of the closures on the museum
and its reputation.
Theres no question this will reduce
visitation, she said. But it could also
have a long-term effect on the reputation
of the museum. If people think its open
and drive here and find out its closed,
people arent going to be happy. We do
our best to get the word out, but some-
times that is not good enough.
That happened one day last April. An
unexpected staffing shortage forced the
museum to close Sunday, April 28, the
same day a group drove up from San Di-
ego specifically to visit the museum.
They got all the way here and we
werent open, Godbille said. They were
disappointed, but it was unavoidable.
Monday is the slowest day at the mu-
seum, so closing that day made the most
sense, Godbille explained. Sunday staffing
required overtime pay, so thats why Sun-
day was chosen.
The Seabee Museum opened its new
facility just outside the base gates in July
2011. About 27,000 visitors stopped by in
fiscal year 2011-2012, slightly more than
the number who came before Sept. 11,
2001, when the museum was still located
on base but when access was easier. The
visitor count in 2012-2013 looks to be
about the same as the last fiscal year, God-
bille said.
The museum has yet to launch an ex-
tensive marketing campaign because many
of its exhibits are not yet finished.
Well be opening the first part of the
World War II gallery on Sept. 13, when
we unveil the Atlantic Roads exhibit,
Godbille said. It will be the first perma-
nent exhibit here since the museumopened
in 2011.

CS3 Alan Spurling, who works in the barracks at Naval Base Ventura County, Port Hueneme,
interviews an eighth-grader at E.O. Green Junior High Schools Portfolio Faire. I wish Id
had something like this in school, said the Goldsboro, N.C., native.
By Nichole OGrady
NSWC PHD
Its never too early to jumpstart a career
a notion eighth-grade students at E.O.
Green Junior High School in Oxnard dem-
onstrated during the schools 17th annual
Portfolio Faire June 5.
The event allows students to present
their best pieces of schoolwork during
interviews with about 70 community vol-
unteers, half of whom were from Naval
Base Ventura County (NBVC). Volunteers
meet with students one-on-one for 10 min-
utes, asking questions about their portfo-
lios and how they prepared them. After
each interview, volunteers complete an
evaluation of the student that includes
positive feedback and recommendations
for improvement.
NBVC School Liaison Officer Monica
James said the experience is invaluable for
eighth-graders.
They are entering a time in the educa-
tional career that they will need to really
focus on their goals and their future, she
said. This event allows them the oppor-
tunity to articulate their goals and take
pride in their achievements. The interview
experience is priceless, as every one of
these students will need to go through an
interview at some point. They can now
have the confidence that theyve at least
gotten through one.
Thao Nguyen, an electronics engineer
with Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port
Hueneme Division (NSWC PHD), said
many of the students are nervous at
first.
I try to put themat ease by giving them
a big smile and telling them this is just
practice so as to boost their confidence,
she said. Afterward, Ill ask them ques-
tions on their assignments and what they
would do differently if given the oppor-
tunity to redo it.
At the end of the day, students were
grateful for the experience and looked
forward to more opportunities in the fu-
ture.
I like that we are getting experience for
a job,said eighth-grader Jackie Espinoza.
I was really nervous, but I wouldnt mind
going to another interview.
James said the event is a win-win.
The students are able to talk with true
local professionals who have achieved their
goals, she said. More importantly, the
Navy folks are able to meet the incredibly
bright, talented students attending one of
our local schools.

NAWCWD Public Affairs
Vice Adm. David Dunaway, command-
er of the Naval Air Systems Command
(NAVAIR), spent three days last month
at Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons
Division (NAWCWD) facilities in China
Lake and Point Mugu, his second visit to
NAWCWD since assuming command of
NAVAIR six months ago.
Four town hall meetings were part of
the vice admirals May 20-22 agenda
three at China Lake and one at Point
Mugu. Those meetings reached about
1,300 employees, roughly 20 percent of the
NAWCWD workforce.
Dunaways visit came just days after
Defense SecretaryChuckHagel announced
plans for 11 furlough days for the major-
ity of Defense Department civilians.
At each of his town hall meetings, Du-
naway expressed disappointment in the
decision made to furlough and conveyed
deep concern for the workforce, predicting
that the 11-day, 20 percent pay cut to civil-
ians will craterproductivity and morale
and be a setback in readiness for warfight-
ers.
Youre watching all the politics happen
right on the front page of your lives, and
I apologize for that but it is what it is and
were going to have to deal with it, Dun-
away said.
To counter the pain of furlough and
sequestration, he reminded the workforce
of the positive attributes affecting the di-
rection he believes NAVAIR is headed,
despite budget downturns, and said that
its times like these when the intellectual
capital in the warfare centers makes a big
difference.
Theres things happening right now
that I see as a big positive for our future
that I think are going to make us more
relevant than weve ever been before, he
said, citing Network Enabled Weapons
Controller Interface Module (NEWCIM),
a working example of Integration and
Interoperability (I&I) that catches interop-
erability issues at earlier stages, helping
developers save time and money.
Thats what integrated warfighting ca-
pability is about, Dunaway said. Look-
ing at the outcome and making sure you
are doing your work across a multitude of
systems to connect them to create that
outcome as cheaply as you possibly
can.
He also mentioned being well capital-
ized.
Every one of our platforms Super
Hornet, Growler, E-2D, P-8, 60s Sierras
and Romeos theyve got hot production
lines. Were buying up new UAVs. Were
in pretty darn good shape, he said, cred-
iting that good position to Navy leader-
ship.
Dunaway saved half of his one-hour
town halls for questions from employees.
Most questions centered on sequestration,
how furlough days would impact day-to-
day operations, and updates to training
and travel approval processes.
More than once, Dunaway expressed his
concern for employees and the impending
furlough days they face. He encouraged
people to start saving nowfor smaller pay-
checks slated to begin midsummer, and to
let their leadership and lenders know if
and when they encounter financial hard-
ship due to furlough days.
He reassured employees, saying they
would get through these furlough days
and, as anorganization, NAWCWDwould
remain relevant as providers of naval
aviation capabilities.
The way we live today is not free,Du-
naway said. It does not come easily. It
comes fromhard work. It comes fromus-
ing our heads. And I think that we are very
well poised to do that as a systems com-
mand.
Dunaway was accompanied by his flag
aide, Lt. Jonathan Norris, and hosted by
Rear Adm. Paul Sohl, NAWCWD com-
mander, and Executive Director Scott
ONeil.
During his visit, he held a conference
with members of NAWCWDs senior lead-
ership team: Sohl, ONeil, Capt. Karl An-
dina, NAWCWD vice commander; Dr.
Ron Smiley, director of electronic warfare
combat systems and the Avionics Depart-
ment; Terry Clark, director of NAVAIR
ranges; Dave Janiec, director of the Soft-
ware Engineering Department; Joan John-
son, director of the Weapons and Energet-
ics Department; and TomDowd, director
of the Threat and Target Systems Depart-
ment.
Dunaway also took more than a dozen
briefings, beginning with an update on
NEWCIMat China Lake and closing with
a walk-through of Air Test and Evaluation
Squadron (VX) 30s unmanned aircraft
systems hangar at Point Mugu.

Once again, Brides Across America
is partnering with Camarillo Bridal to
make wedding dreams come true for
military brides.
Camarillo Bridal is hosting a wedding
gown giveaway from noon to 8 p.m. July
10, donating designer dresses as a spe-
cial thanks to U.S. service men and
women. The event will take place at
2121 Pickwick Drive in Camarillo.
As a pro-military business in Ven-
tura County, it is a pleasure to honor
those who have served our country,
said Camarillo Bridal manager Renee
Barrnett. It is our hope that we are
able to lift the burden of purchasing a
gown by gifting every military bride her
dream dress.
Brides Across America founder Hei-
di Janson said many military brides find
it difficult to plan their fairy tale
wedding due to deployment, injury or
economic circumstances.
This is a Cinderella moment that
any bride would dream about! she
said.
Brides are encouraged to bring a
photo of their fianc and share their
story while shopping for that perfect
wedding gown.
In order to qualify for a gown, brides
or their fianc must be serving in the
military; be either currently deployed,
have a future deployment or have been
deployed within the last five years to
Iraq, Afghanistan, Bahrain, Qatar,
Libya, Kuwait, Korea or Japan.
Brides must pre-register for the event
and bring identification and deploy-
ment papers to the event.
To register or for more information,
see www.bridesacrossamerica.com.
Brides Across America is a nation-
wide 501c3 nonprofit. With the collab-
orative effort of bridal salons, design-
ers and individual donations, it has
donated 10,000 wedding gowns.

Seabees deployed to Okinawa, Japan,
with Naval Mobile Construction Battalion
(NMCB) 5 recently spent five days con-
structing an alternative building at Camp
Marvin G. Shields.
The structure is made of expanded poly-
styrene blocks covered with a layer of a
concrete mix.
Expanded polystyrene is similar to the
material used to make white foam coolers
except that it is thicker and fire resis-
tant.
After the concrete mix is applied to the
interior and exterior of the polystyrene
building, the structure is rated as being
able to withstand hurricane winds and
earthquakes.
This is one of several construction proj-
ects the Seabees are undertaking while
deployed to the Philippines, Malaysia,
Indonesia and Thailand.
Concrete-covered foam creates durable buildings

Seabees begin construction of the alternative building at Camp Marvin G. Shields in
Okinawa, Japan, by fitting the expanded polystyrene walls together. Once the walls are
glued, theyll be covered with concrete.
Alternative structures
assembled by NMCB 5
are rated to withstand
quakes, hurricanes
SW3 Dustin Starman glues together the expanded polystyrene blocks.
BU3 Brittany Barlow places corner beads in
the expanded polystyrene block that makes
up the framing of the alternative building.
This will ensure smooth corners after a
concrete mix is applied to the structure.
BU3 Jose Vasquez, left, and SW3 Dustin Starman use a hot wire to cut a foam block.
With construction nearly complete, SW3
Daniel Buskeness uses a trowel to level the
wet concrete walls of the alternative building.
When the concrete is dry, the building will be
rated as being able to withstand hurricane
winds and earthquakes.

Seabees and Sailors attached to com-
mands at Naval Base Ventura County
recently volunteered to help rebuild an
out-of-date and unsafe playground at Rio
del Norte Elementary School in Ox-
nard.
The volunteers came from the Naval
Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary
Warfare Center (NAVFAC EXWC), Na-
val Construction Training Center (NCTC)
and the Center for Seabees and Facility
Engineering (CSFE).
Chief Builder (SCW/EXW) Timothy
Fabrey of CSFE approached the princi-
pal of Rio del Norte after his daughters
teacher told him the playground could
not be used.
Fabrey checked out the site and deter-
mined that the rehabilitation could be
done in three phases.
With the help of about 20 volunteers
from the base, the first phase was com-
pleted in early March. It included the
removal of deteriorated and unsafe out-
door composite walking surfaces, old
playground equipment and concrete foot-
ers.
All of the dismantled playground
equipment was taken to the recycling
center, and the money received was re-
turned to the school.
The second phase included site prep
and earth removal in preparation for
phase three, which was the installation
of a new walking surface and playground
equipment.
I enjoy doing things for the commu-
nity, Fabrey said. Doing this for the
school impacts my daughters future ex-
perience as well as the other children at-
tending there.

onship consists of a 1,500-meter (approx-
imately one-mile) ocean swim, 40-kilome-
ter (24.8-mile) draft-legal bike ride, and
10-kilometer (6.2-mile) run. Teams from
the Navy, Air Force, Army and Marine
Corps compete for points; a team made
up of members of the Canadian armed
forces participates but does not compete
for points.

both came in a close second this year, with
only two points separating the womens
teams and one point separating the
mens.
Individual gold medals went to Army
Capt. Nicholas Sterghos of Fort Hood,
Texas, who finished with a time of 1 hour,
49 minutes, 21 seconds, and to Air Force
2nd Lt. Samantha Morrison, who finished
in 2:07:39.
In last years marathon, Sterghos fin-
ished second to Army 1st Lt. Nick Van-
dam, who is currently deployed and did
not race this year.
Morrison had graduated three days ear-
lier from the U.S. Air Force Academy, and
shes preparing to report to her first duty
station, Seymour Johnson Air Force Base
in North Carolina.
Its been a good week, she said.
In the mens competition, Air Force
Major James Bales of Keesler Air Force
Base in Mississippi took the silver medal
with a time of 1:49:57, and Navy Lt.
Thomas Brown, who works in explosive
ordnance disposal at Naval Amphibious
Base Coronado, took the bronze with a
time of 1:50:20.
This was the first time in 16 months
Bales had competed in a triathlon. He won
the mens race at Point Mugu in both 2010
and 2011, but missed last year because of
the premature birth of his son, Joshua,
now a healthy 1-year-old.
Family takes priority, he said, adding
that he was more than pleased with a sec-
ond-place finish after taking so much time
off.
Brown, together with the fourth-place
mens finisher, Lt. j.g. Derek Oskutis of
Explosive Ordnance Disposal Mobile Unit
11 in San Diego, had led the race through-
out the swim and the bike ride. But Os-
kutis developed a cramp in the fifth mile
of the run.
Derek and I know each other and have
raced a number of years together, Brown
said. We planned to work together in this
race, and it went well. We had a big gap
right away. Hes a better runner than I am
nine out of 10 races, but this time he got
a cramp in the fifth mile. But I was glad
to see the team pull together. Im glad to
have been a part of it.

North Island garnered silver with a time of
2:10:37. Lt. Rachel Beckmann, a chemical engi-
neer at the Coast Guard Marine Safety Center
in Washington, D.C., brought home the bronze
medal for the Navy with a time of 2:11:15.
OConnor, who has competed several times at
Mugu, eyed the conditions before the race start-
ed at 9 a.m. and was optimistic. Warmed by a
late-week heat wave, the ocean temperature was
62 degrees, compared to the low 50s of previous
years.
Thank goodness! OConnor said. Its been
53 degrees in the past, and thats miserable.
Its something Capt. Kenneth Corigliano of
MacDill Air Force Base in Florida knows all
about. Saturday was his seventh triathlon at
Mugu.
Its always rough because the water is so cold,
he said. Your body is still cold on the bike and
then it heats up on the run. Its a thermoregula-
tion nightmare.
With the recent heat wave, the athletes were
anticipating an extremely hot run and were pre-
pared to drink more water and electrolytes, but
the marine layer still hadnt burned off by the
noontime awards ceremony.
Conditions were great, said Marine Corps
Major Casey McKinney of Camp Pendleton.
The wind didnt pick up either.
Unlike in past years, there were no cases of
hypothermia. In fact, only two competitors didnt
finish the race, one because of a broken bicycle
crankshaft, the other because of a bike that was
damaged in a collision; the other cyclist involved
continued on with a nasty road rash.
The triathletes who had competed at Mugu
before also noticed another change: The Admi-
rals Cup, a sprint triathlon for the public tradi-
tionally held before the Armed Forces event,
didnt take place due to funding issues. Many
Admirals Cup participants would stay on after
finishing their race to watch some of the best
athletes in the sport.
That really added to the ambiance, Felty said,
adding that as a coach, he liked having the built-
in cheering section.
Event organizers noticed the difference as
well.
Its a lot less chaotic, said Kevin Ludwig of
NBVCs Morale, Welfare and Recreation.
But the smaller crowd didnt take away from
the inspiration and excitement generated by the
event not for Capt. Larry Vasquez, command-
ing officer of the base.
Its always inspiring to see the dedication of
these athletes dedication not only to their
country but also to their sport, he said. And
talk about leading a healthy lifestyle this is
the epitome of that.

interview questions?
What careers are suited for military
spouses?
Should I volunteer or focus on finding
a job?
Where is my dream job and how can

Leaving your dream job behind to start
over after a PCS move can be difficult. As
a military spouse, I can relate firsthand to
the struggles experienced by military
families seeking employment. While mov-
ing three times in three years may have
helped my husbands career, it certainly
didnt make it easy to continue building
my own. Through this process, I have be-
come an expert at starting over and quick-
ly securing employment, and I have a pas-
sion for helping others do the same.

The Fleet & Family
Support Center
In the tumultuous ocean of the current
economy and the waves crashing upon us,
its easy to feel like were drowning.
How much the upcoming furlough will
impact individuals and families varies with
preparedness. The Fleet &Family Support
Center has come up with some tips to help
you prepare and successfully plan to nav-
igate through the furlough storm and
see the sun through the clouds.
A quote by Winston Churchill states it
best: Let our advance worrying become
advance thinking and planning.
Use a furlough calculator to see the
difference in your income. Use an NMCI
computer to access a calculator to help
adjust your budget with your new and
temporary circumstances. Find the calcu-
lator at: www.navylifesw.com/hosted/ffsc/
pdfs/FurloughPayCalculator.xls-
Make a financial plan to stay afloat.
Now is a good time to evaluate your net
worth. Add up your assets (what you own)
then subtract your liabilities (what you
owe) to see your overall financial standing.
Also, review your free credit report at
www.annualcreditreport.comto make sure
it is accurate and youre not paying exces-
sive interest based on an incorrect credit
score.
Plug your spending leaks. A small
hole in a boat can still make it sink, but it
can be easier to fix! Take a look at your
expenses and determine where you can fix
those holes. Can you reduce your utility
costs? Bundle your cable, Internet and
phone? Ask for temporary rate cuts on
credit cards? Suspend your student loan
payments due to hardship? Become a more
savvy shopper by using coupons, buying
store brands and planning your menu?
When dealing with creditors, inquire as
to whether they have a hardship depart-
ment that you can speak with.
Put on your life vest. Youre not the
only one in this boat, and surrounding
yourself with positive, supportive people
will help make this time easier. Start a sup-
port group to talk about stress. Make
goals, get organized, learn new hobbies
and figure out some free activities you can
all do together.
Get everyone on board. Talk with your
family about the change ahead and the
impact it will have. Brainstormcost-saving
ideas or free activities to do in your area.
Be sure to include your kids theyre
creative, and usually what they think is
fun means spending time together.
Figure out strategies to lessen the im-
pact. Focus on doing something positive
on furlough days. Plan to visit friends,
exercise, do yard work or tackle those
projects that you havent had time for.
Avoid places where you will be tempted
to spend money. Dont be afraid to use a
portion of your emergency savings to help
you make up for lost income, but do so
with caution.
Dont panic. Avoid eliminating some-
thing temporarily that could mean more
of a loss in the long run. Borrowing from
your investments or retirement funds
might lessen your immediate money
squeeze, but it will also add more debt,
thereby increasing your monthly obliga-
tions. If you eliminate TSP contributions,
especially if you receive matching funds,
you could be affecting your tax obligations
not to mention the reduction in match-
ing funds. Continue to pay your bills on
time, as you dont want to hurt your cred-
it or add late fees.
Use your local resources. They in-
clude:
Employee Assistance Program: www.
acispecialtybenefits.com or 800-932-
0034.
Local Food Pantry: Call 211 on a
land line and ask for the location of your
local pantry.

clinical counselors for individual or fam-
ily counseling.
Consumer Credit Counseling Agen-
cy, SUREPATH Financial Solutions at
1-877-615-7873.
Stay informed of the situation. Fur-
lough information sources include the
Office of Personnel Management (OPM)
at www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/
pay-leave/furlough-guidance/
#url=Shutdown-Furlough or the Depart-
ment of Navy furloughs frequently asked
questions at www.public.navy.mil/donhr/
Pages/FurloughGuidanceIssued.aspx.
Focus on the horizon and stay on a
steady course. After youve taken the op-
portunity to revamp your current financ-
es, maintain a positive attitude to ride out
this storm. It might get a little rough, but
if you are realistic with your situation and
make the necessary adjustments and stick
to your plan, you will be able to survive
this storm.
You can do this! When you utilize your
resources with the proper plan and willing-
ness to make a few minor adjustments,
youll come out of this with minimal sac-
rifice. More importantly, you will solidify
your confidence and the tools to ensure
sound fiscal management.

For about two years, the Energy Man-
agement team at NBVC has been analyz-
ing data from the smart meters and
working with facilities personnel to figure
out ways to save energy and money.
Having access to real-time facility util-
ity usage data allows Energy Management
personnel to identify wasted energy by
improving operating schedules, ensuring
facilities are secured off- hours, identifying
energy spikes and reducing 24/7 loads,
Wiltshire explained.
The meters have become a critical tool
as the base works to cut 10 percent of its
energy bill more than $1 million by
the end of the year, as the current budget
mandates.
A recent analysis of some of the largest
buildings on base showed that some were
able to lower their electricity usage by as
much as 51 percent in one month. Others
showed an increase one by 18 per-
cent.
Sometimes a large piece of equipment
is brought in, and that can create a spike,
Energy Manager Tom Santoianni ex-
plained at the quarterly Building Energy
Managers meeting earlier this month. Or
maybe theres something going on with a
mission. Whatever it is, it needs to be ex-
plained.
Most of the time, Santoianni said, the
problem is behavioral: Workers simply
dont turn off their computers, their print-
ers, their lights or their coffeemakers. They
leave them on at night, on weekends and
on holidays.
That costs money.
There are a lot of savings out there,
Santoianni said, and with the smart
meters, were getting more and more of
them.

At NBVC, two-thirds of the workforce are civilians,
and half of those fall into categories affected by the
furlough.
Defense Secretary Charles Hagel announced last
month that a majority of Department of Defense (DoD)
civilians would be taking 11 furlough days. Commands
are currently in the process of adjusting schedules for
the next several months to accommodate those orders.
In his May 14 memo to all DoD personnel, Hagel
wrote, As you are fully aware, the Department of De-
fense is facing a historic shortfall in our budget for the
current fiscal year. This is the result of current law that
went into effect March 1. It imposes deep across-the-
board cuts on DoD and other federal agencies. Com-
bined with higher than expected wartime operating costs,
we are nowshort more than $30 billion in our operation
and maintenance (O&M) accounts which are the
funds that we use to pay most civilian employees, main-
tain our military readiness, and respond to global con-
tingencies.
The Department has been doing everything possible
to reduce this shortfall while ensuring we can defend the
nation, sustain wartime operations, and preserve DoDs
most critical asset our world-class civilian and military
personnel. To that end, we have cut back sharply on
facilities maintenance, worked to shift funds frominvest-
ment to O&M accounts, and reduced many other im-
portant but non-essential programs.
Anna Esguerra, general manager of the Navy Ex-
changes at both Point Mugu and Port Hueneme, said
her stores will not be reducing hours due to the fur-
loughs.
The NEX stores at Point Mugu and Port Hueneme
will continue to operate regular business hours during
the furlough periods, she said. We will be open seven
days a week at both locations.
Velma Siler, director of the Port Hueneme Commis-
sary, said she expects Tuesdays to be more crowded after
the new hours take effect.
Commissaries that are normally closed one day a
week find the next day to be very busy, she said.
She said one of the slowest times of the week is late
Sunday afternoons.
From 3:30 to 5 p.m. on Sundays would be the best
time to shop, she said.
Siler said she anticipates regular hours to resume Sept.
30 and biweekly sales to resume at NBVC Point Mugu
after the start of the new fiscal year. Those sales, which
were taking place every other Saturday, ended in Febru-
ary.
Commissary hours will stay the same the other days
of the week: 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thurs-
day and Friday; 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday; and 11 a.m.
to 5 p.m. Sunday.
Commissary will close on Mondays

Vernica Vsquez, who works in the
Equal Employment Opportunity office
at the Naval Air Warfare Center Weap-
ons Division, located at Naval Base Ven-
tura County, Point Mugu, submitted the
theme that was chosen for 2013 His-
panic Heritage Month.
The National Council of Hispanic
Employment Program Managers
(NCHEPM) selected Hispanics: Serv-
ing and Leading Our Nation with Pride
and Honor from more than 40 submis-
sions.
The theme announcement was made
during the councils May 22 meeting at
the U.S. Department of Justice in Wash-
ington, D.C.
NCHEPM members, associates and
partners from various federal agencies
and affinity groups, including the gen-
eral public, selected the theme through
a voting process that started in April.
Hispanics have served our nation as
soldiers, educators, field workers, politi-
cians, doctors, [and more] since the U.S.
was first declared a nation, and we con-
tinue to serve in these roles [] every
day, making a mark on this great nation
of ours, Vasquez said. It is time to
educate our nation on our many accom-
plishments, our capabilities, and how we
do it with pride and honor.
Ismael Martnez, chairman of the
council, shared Vsquezs sentiment.
The theme calls not only for the rec-
ognition of the contributions Hispanics
have made for our nation, but for the
appreciation and respect of the indi-
viduals who have unreservedly champi-
oned these, he said. It is time for us to
recognize and celebrate the accomplish-
ments of our brothers and sisters.
Each autumn, Americans observe Na-
tional Hispanic Heritage Month by cel-
ebrating the contributions of American
citizens whose ancestors came from
Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central
America, and South America.
The Hispanic Heritage observance
began in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage
Week under President Lyndon Johnson
and was expanded by President Ronald
Reagan in 1988 to cover a 30-day period
starting Sept. 15 and ending Oct. 15. It
was enacted into law Aug. 17, 1988.
The NCHEPM is advocates for the
improvement of Hispanic participation
in the federal government.
Winning theme was submitted by NAWCWD employee
It will be used during
2013 Hispanic Heritage
Month

NSWC PHD
Naval Surface Warfare Center,
Port Hueneme Division (NSWC
PHD), participated in a success-
ful test of the Aegis Ballistic
Missile Defense (BMD) system,
resulting in the intercept of a
separating ballistic missile target
over the Pacific Ocean on May
15.
The test was a joint effort of
NSWC PHD, the Missile De-
fense Agency (MDA), USS Lake
Erie (CG-70), NSWC Dahlgren
Division and NSWC Corona
Division.
During the test, a two-stage
ballistic missile test target was
launched and then successfully
intercepted by the SM-3 Block
IB Guided Missile. Test results
concluded that all components
performed as designed. This
helped in validating the second-
generation Aegis BMD Weapon
System and Standard Missiles
capability for engagement of
longer range and more sophisti-
cated ballistic missiles.
PHD provided the team of
people that actually planned and
executed the mission, said Kyle
Bell, Aegis BMD project man-
ager at NSWC PHD. In addi-
tion, PHDs White Sands Missile
Range detachment assembled
the missile target, and together,
the two teams collaborated in
launching the SM-3 from the
Pacific Missile Range Facility in
Kauai, Hawaii.
The event, designated as Flight
Test Standard Missile-19 (FTM-
19), is the third consecutive suc-
cessful intercept test of the Aegis
BMD 4.0 Weapon System and
the SM-3 Block IB guided mis-
sile. Other Aegis BMDintercepts
employed the Aegis BMD 3.6
and 4.0 with the SM-3 Block IA
missile, which is currently op-
erational aboard U.S. Navy ships
deployed across the globe.
NSWC PHDs involvement in
the Aegis BMD program dates
back to 1996, having since led
and executed every test involving
the SM-3.
NSWC PHD is located at Na-
val Base Ventura County, Port
Hueneme. It is the Navys pre-
mier in-service engineering and
logistics center and has been in
existence for more than 49 years.
The command provides test and
evaluation, in-service engineer-
ing, and integrated logistics sup-
port for weapon and combat
systems installed in the U.S.
Navy fleet, U.S. Coast Guard
fleet and many foreign navy
fleets.

Local high school students who participated in the spring Pre-
Engineering Program(PEP) at Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port
Hueneme Division (NSWC PHD), graduated during a special cer-
emony May 20 at the Oxnard Union High School District office.
A total of 31 students from schools in Oxnard and Ventura
completed the 10-week program, earning certificates of completion
and college letters of recommendation signed by Capt. Burt Espe,
the commanding officer of NSWC PHD.
Graduates, your attendance today and over the past fewmonths
demonstrates your enthusiasm and commitment to the science of
engineering, Espe told the students. You have witnessed how
engineering principles can be applied to everyday problem-solving,
and I hope that this program has inspired you to pursue a reward-
ing career in the field.
PEP, which originated in 1998, takes place twice each school
year and is an educational partnership between NSWC PHD and
local high schools. It is part of the commands outreach efforts to
promote science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM)
within the academic community.
The Pre-Engineering Program teaches students how math and
science concepts are used in reality-based scenarios. Engineers from
around the command and from the Naval Facilities Engineering
and Expeditionary Warfare Center serve as volunteer teachers.
Students are introduced to a variety of engineering disciplines,
including ocean engineering, environment engineering, civil engi-
neering, computer engineering, fleet support, modeling and simu-
lation and missile engineering. In addition, the students witness
demonstrations, participate in group experiments and receive a
tour of the commands Self Defense Test Ship.
Organized by NSWCPHDs Mark Jue of the Office of Engineer-
ing and Command Communications Office, volunteer instructors
for this semesters program included Carlos Boisselier, Victor Cai,
Eduardo Cervantes, Jennie Dummer, Brad Fiedler, Lizbeth
Figueroa, Robert Fredrickson, Louis Guida Jr., David Gutierrez,
Robert Hilger, Seung Kang, Mitchell Krug, Vern Novstrup, Lillian
Rodriguez, Dave Scheid, Felipe Tolentino, David Veloz Jr., Gregg
Wagener, and Danny Winslett.
