SAPR milestone: 100th certified victim advocate at NASP Story, photo

by Katelyn Barton PAO Intern

SH2 Andrew Hanson has recently been approved as the 100th D-SAACP (Department of Defense Sexual Assault Advocate Certification Program) victim advocate (VA) onboard Naval Air Station Pensacola (NASP).

Hanson, who was born in Superior, Wisc., has been in the Navy for nine years.

Hanson served on the USS Nimitz (CVN68) for four years during this time. He currently serves as the assistant coordinator for the urinalysis program onboard NASP. Hanson explained that volunteering to be a D-SAACP VA is a good feeling because it is part of something that is continually growing and becoming more recognized throughout the military.

“I wanted to become certified because I feel like it’s a very important command program and that we should always have resources available to assist service members who are affected by sexual assault,”

SH2 Andrew Hanson is the 100th certified victim advocate in the base’s Sexual Assault Prevention and Response (SAPR) program.

Hanson said.

Hanson needed to complete 40 hours of training to become a D-SAACP VA. Though the training is not too hard in Hanson’s opinion, he said there was a lot of information to absorb in a short amount of time. Hanson recommends the program to people who are patient, have good listening skills and the ability

Longtime NAS Pensacola Public Affairs Officer Harry White retires

By Katelyn Barton PAO Intern

A well-known representative with a booming voice, Naval Air Station Pensacola (NASP) Public Affairs Officer (PAO) Harry White retired June 30 after 25 years of service.

White said he will miss being part of the NASP team, but he has many fond memories and he is looking forward to having some fun.

“One cannot spend 25 years doing something that is so much fun and important, then walk away and not miss it,” White said. “I will miss it dearly, but there is no doubt in my mind that retirement will be just as much fun.”

White, who grew up on a farm in Elsinore, Ala., got some valuable career experience before landing at NASP. After dropping out of college, he joined the Air Force. But he was able to finish two degrees before retiring from the Air Force in 1984 after 21 years of service.

After a short time working as the executive vice president for a chamber of commerce in South Alabama, White applied for and was happy to be selected to be a

public affairs specialist at NASP in 1989, because “once you get the military in your blood, you don’t get it out.”

White explained that his 25 years at NAS Pensacola grew on him. He said making a difference, having fun and being in great health is what let him work in the same job for so long.

“It is a very important job, (public affairs) I think. We are the face, the voice, of NAS Pen-

sacola. We are the public affairs staff, and so there is a lot of opportunity to advance the image of the Navy and the Department of Defense,” White said.

NAS Pensacola is an extremely unique installation, White said, with the distinction of having almost every naval aviator come here to train in some way. Many of these people come back and want to see the base, and in order to be suc-

cessful as the PAO of NASP, one must be in tune with the needs of the people first off, White said.

NAS Pensacola has always offered a daily challenge, he said. White explained that the great thing about public affairs is that every day is different.

There is no cookie-cutter form of the public affairs job. Public affairs is always one phone call away from being in a crisis, he said.

In looking back, White said his biggest disappointment from a public affairs standpoint was dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Ivan in 2004. As a result of the category three storm, many buildings were destroyed and the entire base was in horrible shape. White feels he could have done a better job of providing public affairs coverage of what was going on at NASP post-Ivan.

White said he experienced rewarding moments as well. The biggest accomplishment, in White’s opinion, was being a part of the Naval Aviation Depot transition team in the mid-’90s when the depot closed down.

The team put together a plan for how the employees were to be taken care of after the closure.

Fourth of July safety message from CNIC “CNIC Team, I wanted to send this message before folks depart on well-deserved vacations and time off.

(As we) mark the 238th year of our nation’s independence, hang bunting and flags, fire up the grill, and enjoy the time off, I ask that you remember that our independence and the freedoms we enjoy today came at a price of blood and treasure.

There are many – military and civilian – who came before us to fight for our independence and defend it during the past two centuries. So, on this Independence Day, I’d ask that you remember those who have gone before but I’d also ask you to reflect on our freedoms and our country has earned and maintained them. As recent world events show us, freedoms like ours are neither permanent nor guaranteed but they are always precious.

Also, I’d ask you to remember that this holiday weekend there will be dedicated service members and civilians working hard and standing watch in defense of our country and all it stands for. Keep them in your thoughts and prayers and, if you have the opportunity, thank them.

Lastly, holidays bring risk. Whether you’re on the road, in the swimming pool, at the beach, hiking in the mountains, or just relaxing at home, please put safety first. Be thoughtful around the grill, designate a driver if you plan to drink, lather on the sunscreen, and stay safe out there.

I am very proud of each and every one of you for the great work you do in support of the ‘Fleet, Fighter and Family.’ Each of you make a difference every day as part of our global shore enterprise team. I am continually impressed by your professionalism and dedication.

I wish you and your family a safe and relaxing holiday.

Happy Independence Day.” All the best, Vice Adm. Bill French

to be empathetic.

He said he learned that sexual assault can happen to anyone regardless of race or gender and there always needs to be people with the resources and assistance to help service members that may be affected by sexual assault.

“Being a D-SAACP VA is definitely not for everyone,” Hanson said.

“Once you become certified you have to be willing to be flexible and available to service members who may be potential victims of sexual assault. I believe that the more people that get involved and certified will help us reduce these numbers drastically.”

To report a sexual assault, call Safe Helpline (877-995-5247), Victim Advocate 24/7 phone (449-9231), or the Civilian Victim Advocate phone (293-4561) as resources for victims.

Naval Air Station, Pensacola, Fla.: A Bicentennial Defense Community Commanding Officer — Capt. Keith Hoskins Interim Public Affairs Officer — Patrick J. Nichols The Gosport nameplate pays homage to the 100th anniversary of naval aviation in 2011: the Centennial of Naval Aviation, or CONA. The image on the left side of the nameplate depicts Eugene Ely taking off in a Curtiss pusher bi-plane from the USS Pennsylvania Jan. 18, 1911.

While Ely had taken off from the USS Birmingham two months earlier after his plane had been loaded on the ship, the USS Pennsylvania event was the first time a plane landed on and then took off from a U.S. warship.

Many employees were able to retire or move to other locations.

White looks back with great pride on the all the work the transition team did with the Naval Aviation Depot. The team became a model for the closure process in the Navy because of the way they took care of business, White said.

“Retirement is going to be an absolute wonderful experience, but I can tell you now I’m going to wake up (my first day of retirement) and wonder why I am not heading to NAS Pensacola to do my job,” White said.

White has a great desire to spend time with his family, especially his grandchildren, during his retirement.

During his final department head meeting at NASP, White was presented with a custommade fishing rod from the wardroom team and a reel from public affairs staff members.

Though White has retired, he plans to keep contributing to the base by working with volunteer organizations, writing a book of the NAS Pensacola history and recording a historical self-tour for future visitors.

Patrick J. Nichols is the interim PAO; he can be reached at 452-4436.

The image on the right side is the Navy’s most modern fighter aircraft, the F-18 Super Hornet.

Established in 1921 as the Air Station News, the name Gosport was adopted in 1936. A gosport was a voice tube used by flight instructors in the early days of naval aviation to give instructions and directions to their students.

I’m dreaming of a summer with teens who have jobs

By Lisa Smith Molinari Military Spouse Columnist

D

espite the fact that the school year has ended for our children, I started my normal morning routine this week on autopilot – scrambling eggs, fluffing laundry, mopping the kitchen floor and microwaving the same cup of coffee three times.

I darted out to the base commissary at about 10 a.m., in desperate need of paper towels and lunchmeat, completely forgetting that the children were still upstairs slobbering into their pillows.

It wasn’t until I sunk my teeth into a leftover leg of chicken to quell a pang of hunger at 11:45 a.m., that I remembered.

“Do you realize that it is almost noon?” I blasted across the rumpled bed containing my 19-year-old son. His hairy leg was hiked over a pile of dirty clothes tangled in his comforter. The floor was littered with headphones, magazines, discarded school papers, dropped pretzels and empty soda cans.

“Huh .... wha?” he said as the brain under his crazy hair

How to submit a commentary

tried to process the scene.

While he smacked his lips and stretched, I ranted.

“Have you followed up on those job applications yet?

Well, mister, if you’re dreaming of lounging around the house for the next three months, not earning any spending money for college next year, you’ve got another thing coming.”

After making the rounds to each of our three children’s rooms, I stormed downstairs, grumbling to myself, “Why are kids today so daggone lazy? Sleeping into the afternoon, no sense of responsibility. That sort of thing was not allowed in my day. Hrmph.”

While stuffing the washer with cold darks, I thought of my summers as a teen. My father had brainwashed me into

over the next year of school.

I cut three acres of grass with a tractor for $20 bucks a week. I sold garden vegetables on the side of the road. I did office work. I painted houses. I bar tended at a golf club. I worked at a bank. And one stressful summer, I took a job as a traveling salesperson for my father’s chemical company even though I knew nothing about the products or how they worked.

I had a little time to lay out, go to the drive-in theater, or hang out at the mall – all the things we did in small towns in the 1980s – but I always made enough spending money to last me through the next school year.

I dreamt of a summer job waitressing at the beach. Living in a seaside shack with other waitresses, not saving much money but having the time of our lives. I thought the beach job could be a lifechanging experience, turning me into one of those cool, mature, sun-kissed girls with long flowy skirts and dangly earrings shaped like dolphin tails. Who cares about the money ... I could transform my life.

But my father’s warnings always prevailed. I certainly

didn’t want the Earth to implode, so I never got that dream beach job. I wondered, should I allow my children to follow their dreams, or insist that they get to work?

I set the washer for permanent press and gathered my semi-conscious teens in the kitchen under the guise of pancakes.

“Hey guys, listen,” I cajoled, “maybe I over-reacted.

You can lounge around the house and make money for school, because there are plenty of things you can do here for me. I’ll give you 20 whole bucks each week to scrub the toilets and sinks, but don’t forget to pull those gooey hair clogs out of the drains. And there’s always the basement to be cleaned out.

Just watch for those fuzzy wolf spiders, they love to jump right in your hair. Oh, and I was thinking that all the garbage cans could use a good scrubbing because they smell like rotten meat ... ” I went on for another 20 minutes or so, while the children stared like deer caught in headlights.

My prediction: the Earth will remain intact, because they will have summer jobs within a week.

NOAA 2014 Atlantic hurricane forecasters predict near- or below-normal season El Niño expected to develop and suppress the number and intensity of tropical cyclones From http://www.noaanews.noaa.gov

In its 2014 Atlantic hurricane season outlook issued May 22, NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center predicted a near-normal or below-normal season.

The main driver of this year’s outlook is the anticipated development of El Niño this summer. El Niño causes stronger wind shear, which reduces the number and intensity of tropical storms and hurricanes. El Niño can also strengthen the trade winds and increase the atmospheric stability across the tropical Atlantic, making it more difficult for cloud systems coming off of Africa to intensify into tropical storms.

The outlook calls for a 50 percent chance of a below-normal season, a 40 percent chance of a near-normal season and only a 10 percent chance of an above-normal season. For the six-month hurricane season, which began June 1, NOAA predicts a 70 percent likelihood of eight to 13 named storms (winds of 39 mph or higher), of which three to six could become hurricanes (winds of 74 mph or higher), including one to two major hurricanes (Category 3, 4 or 5; winds of 111 mph or higher).

These numbers are near or below the seasonal averages of 12 named storms, six hurricanes and three major hurricanes, based on the average from 1981 to 2010. The Atlantic hurricane region includes the North Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico.

“Thanks to the environmental intelligence from NOAA’s network of earth observations, our scientists and meteorologists can provide

life-saving products like our new storm surge threat map and our hurricane forecasts,” said Kathryn Sullivan, NOAA administrator.

“And even though we expect El Niño to suppress the number of storms this season, it’s important to remember it takes only one landfalling storm to cause a disaster.”

Humberto was the first of only two Atlantic hurricanes in 2013. It reached peak intensity, with top winds of 90 mph, in the far eastern Atlantic.

Gerry Bell, lead seasonal hurricane forecaster with NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center, said the Atlantic – which has seen above-normal seasons in 12 of the last 20 years – has been in an era of high activity for hurricanes since 1995. However, this highactivity pattern is expected to be offset in 2014 by the impacts of El Niño, and by cooler Atlantic Ocean temperatures than we’ve seen in recent years.

“Atmospheric and oceanic conditions across the tropical Pacific are already taking on some El Niño characteristics. Also, we are currently seeing strong trade winds and wind shear over the tropical Atlantic, and NOAA’s climate models predict these conditions will persist, in part because of El Niño,” Bell said.

“The expectation of near-average Atlantic Ocean temperatures this season, rather than the above-average temperatures seen since 1995, also suggests fewer Atlantic hurricanes.”

NOAA is rolling out new tools at the National Hurricane Center this year. An experimental mapping tool will be used to show communities their storm surge flood threat.

The map will be issued for coastal areas when a hurricane or tropical storm watch is first issued, or approximately 48 hours before the anticipated onset of tropical storm force winds. The map will show land areas where storm surge could occur and how high above ground the water could reach in those areas.

Early testing on continued improvements to NOAA’s Hurricane Weather Research and Forecasting model (HWRF) shows a 10 percent improvement in this year’s model compared to last year. Hurricane forecasters use the HWRF along with other models to produce forecasts and issue warnings. The HWRF model is being adopted by a number of Western Pacific and Indian Ocean rim nations.

NOAA’s seasonal hurricane outlook is not a hurricane landfall forecast; it does not predict how many storms will hit land or where a storm will strike. Forecasts for individual storms and their impacts will be provided throughout the season by NOAA’s National Hurricane Center.

“It only takes one hurricane or tropical storm making landfall to have disastrous impacts on our communities,” said Joe Nimmich, FEMA associate administrator for Response and Recovery. He noted Pensacola experienced severe flooding from five inches of rain in 45 minutes – without a tropical storm or hurricane – April 30. “We need you to be ready. Know your risk for hurricanes and severe weather, take action now to be prepared and be an example for others in your office, school or community. Learn to prepare for hurricanes at www.ready.gov/ hurricanes.”

The outlook calls for a 50 percent chance of a below-normal season, a 40 percent chance of a near-normal season and only a 10 percent chance of an above-normal season. For the six-month hurricane season, which began June 1, NOAA predicts a 70 percent likelihood of eight to 13 named storms (winds of 39 mph or higher), of which three to six could become hurricanes (winds of 74 mph or higher), including one to two major hurricanes (Category 3, 4 or 5; winds of 111 mph or higher).

These numbers are near or below the seasonal averages of 12 named storms, six hurricanes and three major hurricanes, based on the average from 1981 to 2010. The Atlantic hurricane region includes the North Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico.

“Thanks to the environmental intelligence from NOAA’s network of earth observations, our scientists and meteorologists can provide

life-saving products like our new storm surge threat map and our hurricane forecasts,” said Kathryn Sullivan, NOAA administrator.

“And even though we expect El Niño to suppress the number of storms this season, it’s important to remember it takes only one landfalling storm to cause a disaster.”

Humberto was the first of only two Atlantic hurricanes in 2013. It reached peak intensity, with top winds of 90 mph, in the far eastern Atlantic.

Gerry Bell, lead seasonal hurricane forecaster with NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center, said the Atlantic – which has seen above-normal seasons in 12 of the last 20 years – has been in an era of high activity for hurricanes since 1995. However, this highactivity pattern is expected to be offset in 2014 by the impacts of El Niño, and by cooler Atlantic Ocean temperatures than we’ve seen in recent years.

“Atmospheric and oceanic conditions across the tropical Pacific are already taking on some El Niño characteristics. Also, we are currently seeing strong trade winds and wind shear over the tropical Atlantic, and NOAA’s climate models predict these conditions will persist, in part because of El Niño,” Bell said.

“The expectation of near-average Atlantic Ocean temperatures this season, rather than the above-average temperatures seen since 1995, also suggests fewer Atlantic hurricanes.”

NOAA is rolling out new tools at the National Hurricane Center this year. An experimental mapping tool will be used to show communities their storm surge flood threat.

The map will be issued for coastal areas when a hurricane or tropical storm watch is first issued, or approximately 48 hours before the anticipated onset of tropical storm force winds. The map will show land areas where storm surge could occur and how high above ground the water could reach in those areas.

Early testing on continued improvements to NOAA’s Hurricane Weather Research and Forecasting model (HWRF) shows a 10 percent improvement in this year’s model compared to last year. Hurricane forecasters use the HWRF along with other models to produce forecasts and issue warnings. The HWRF model is being adopted by a number of Western Pacific and Indian Ocean rim nations.

NOAA’s seasonal hurricane outlook is not a hurricane landfall forecast; it does not predict how many storms will hit land or where a storm will strike. Forecasts for individual storms and their impacts will be provided throughout the season by NOAA’s National Hurricane Center.

“It only takes one hurricane or tropical storm making landfall to have disastrous impacts on our communities,” said Joe Nimmich, FEMA associate administrator for Response and Recovery. He noted Pensacola experienced severe flooding from five inches of rain in 45 minutes – without a tropical storm or hurricane – April 30. “We need you to be ready. Know your risk for hurricanes and severe weather, take action now to be prepared and be an example for others in your office, school or community.

Mutual aid agreements benefit base, counties

By Ens. Joshua Lamb NAS Whiting Field Public Affairs

F

ire and Emergency Services Gulf Coast (F&ESGC) Station 1 located onboard Naval Air Station Whiting Field (NASWF) has long-standing mutual aid partnership agreements with Santa Rosa and Escambia counties in Florida; and Escambia, Baldwin and Conecuh counties in Alabama that allow for joint training events and improved emergency response.

Such mutual aid partnerships are one element of the department’s outreach to the community that mirrors the installation’s “good neighbor” philosophy.

Responding to more than 980 combined on- and off-base emergencies last year, F&ESGC plays a key support role in the local community’s response to all types of emergency’s.

F&ESGC responds to the offbase calls to foster better relationships between the military airfields amid the two state and five county region F&ESGC supports.

Fire Chief Frank Barrow emphasized that this relationship is “crucial to Santa Rosa County because many of the fire departments in the county are understaffed and rely on our mutual aid partners to support us.”

Firefighters go above and beyond to protect Santa Rosa County; however, due to staffing shortfalls, they at times are unable to place the number of personnel on the scene to meet the needs of the emergency at hand.

This is where the dedicated firefighters (military and civil service) onboard NASWF and the outlying fields are able to offer a helping hand.

Military firefighters at nine of 13 NASWF’s Outlying Fields (OLFs) are on station when the fields are open to flight operations. The mutual aid agreements allow, military firefighters while traveling to and from an OLF, to provide the first response to emergencies that occur as they travel to and from the OLF or when they are closer to an incident than the local emergency response teams. Once the local

team arrives, the military firefighters would then act in a supporting role as needed.

The local fire departments are able to assist F&ESGC across 4,500 nautical miles of airspace for which Station 1 and the outlying field crash teams are responsible. For example, if an aircraft were to go down outside an OLF perimeter, one of the mutual aid fire departments would likely provide additional support. F&ESGC and NASWF mutual aid partners would work together to respond to the mishap. Emergency response personnel rely heavily on each other during these events to improve services to the local community and NASWF. According to Assistant Chief of Operations Glen Greenough, the station averages about one

deserve recognition for the services our station provides on a daily basis, as they are the ones that go out and handle these situations,” he said.

These calls have included situations such as residential and commercial fires, motor vehicle accidents, and hazardous material spills.

Additionally F&ESGC actively supports the ongoing training requirements of firefighters by assisting with programs like the Wildland Fire Training Conference and

mutual aid request per week.

This type of cooperation often requires the juggling of two sets of radios and phones to keep up communications with both the military and civilian dispatching systems, but Greenough asserts that managing multiple agency responders helps to saves lives and protects property.

“The F&ESGC firefighters

through the use of mobile and fixed training aids.

The Wildland Fire Training conference is unique to the Munson District of Division of Forestry and was held in March this year. F&ESGC assisted this event with planning support and by providing a live fire trainer which simulates helicopter fires.

Support of this and other pro-

grams helps improve the lines of communication among mutual aid partners. Another advantage of the conference is the networking opportunities made available with some non-traditional partners such as law enforcement and emergency management.

While helping to support and coordinate with such a conference is time consuming, the station was encouraged to pursue the efforts as another way of partnering with the community.

Not only did the chain of command support the endeavor, but the commanding officer participated in the Wildland Training Conference’s opening ceremony by addressing the local responders of Northwest Florida. The intentions of both the installation and the fire station would be to continue participation with this event in the future.

“I couldn’t ask for a more supportive commanding officer than Capt. Matthew Coughlin,” Greenough said.

Training events with off-base agencies are becoming more frequent and encouraged by Navy leadership. These events not only help maintain the readiness of the departments but also help to strengthen the relationship that the base has with the local community.

While mutual aid responses

and cooperative training evolutions form a very tangible presence for the citizenry, it is equally important for the team to encourage a presence that is not affiliated with tragic circumstances. Firefighters are the “good guys” and they reinforce that reality through volunteerism.

Members of the F&ESGC team help strengthen community relationships activities such as: CPR and first responder training, Toys for Tots, food drives, Pilot for a Day and Fire Prevention Week.

“I’m glad I can help teach these classes and (I) approach them with the attitude that they could be providing CPR to one of my family members,” Fire Lt. Stephen Hudson said about one of his volunteer efforts. He has been a member of F&ESGC for 14 years and teaches CPR in Santa Rosa County, coaches tball and soft ball, and is a coordinator for the Safe Haven for New Born program.

Firefighter Antonio Jackson serves as a deacon for his church in addition to his duties with the fire station, and he enjoys speaking to elementary students during Fire Prevention Week.

“It’s a great organization, and it’s exciting that there is something new each and every day requiring us to be so versatile,” he said.

We are located near Corry Station and NAS Pensacola. As a result, for 30 years we have handled problems that are unique to active duty and retired military service members.

We are able to handle most issues where Florida has jurisdiction, which may include Initial Divorce proceedings, Spousal Support, Child Support, Modification, Visitation or Custody issues Contempt, E-mail or Teleconferencing. In cases of deployment, regarding court appearances, many occasions relevant to these issues (pursuant to the other sides agreement when necessary), you can testify by telephone and never have to physically be in Florida for the proceeding.

duty, retired or the spouse of active duty or retire military.

Child Support In calculating Child Support, in addition to your regular or retirement pay, the following pay is included: 1. Housing Allowance 2. Sea or Flight Pay 3. Retirement Pay 4. Social Security 5. V.A. Benefits (Yes, despite what others have told you, VA pay is included in child support calculations. Some of you will argue this point. Make an appointment and I will show you why it is included).

You will still be governed by the child support requirements under the general Divorce/Child Support for the state of Florida. FYI: Based on the child support formula, it is almost always cheaper, if possible, to use day care.

E-mail: sbowdenlaw@gmail.com For more information about Steven Bowden’s areas of practice, go to http:// pensacola-lawyer.com

A major problem which can affect both the payor and recipient of child support is when the support should begin. If you are involved in the initial Divorce proceeding the payor’s obligation begins, at the minimum, when the divorce is filed and/or you no longer live together with the child/children. The separation date may predate the filing of the divorce petition. You need an attorney’s advice to ascertain your obligation. If you wait until the final hearing, you may have to pay ongoing child support plus a court ordered amount each month to satisfy an arrearage plus interest.

If you are active duty military, the JAG manual (navy page) will specify what you must pay to continue to support your family until further court order. A temporary hearing could reduce the amount of child support that you have been direct to may pay military orders or rules.

If you are the spouse of an active duty military member, reservist or retiree, see Spouse/Military

or call for an appointment regarding the questions you may have.

Retirement Alimony/Spousal Support In Florida, military retirement funds are an asset which is treated differently than other income related to Alimony/Spousal Support. The spouse of retired military personnel receives a pro rata share of the retirement funds. If the spouse remarries, the awarded share is still paid. If the military retiree dies, and an SBP is elected, it is still paid. You must make sure your lawyer uses the correct formula in order to establish the amount owed. DFAS has particular guidelines that must be met in order to accomplish the correct payment of spousal support.

IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.

The unanimous Declaration of the 13 United States of America, When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed ...

The history of the present king of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states ...

In every stage of these oppressions we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury ...

We, therefore, the representatives of the United States of America, in general congress, assembled, appealing to the supreme judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the name, and by authority of the good people of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, that these united Colonies are, and of right ought to be free and independent states; that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British crown, and that all political connection between them and the state of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved ...

And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.

Fireworks: It’s better and way safer to go to the show From National Fire Protection Association

Permanent scarring, loss of vision, dismemberment – these are too often the harsh realities of amateur fireworks use. To keep the public safe from fireworksrelated injuries and deaths, the nonprofit National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) urges everyone to treat fireworks, whether legal or illegal for consumers, as suitable only for use by trained professionals. According to NFPA, amateur fireworks use endangers not only the users, but also bystanders and surrounding property and structures.

Pyrotechnic devices ranging from sparklers to aerial rockets cause thousands of fires and serious injuries each year.

“Safe and sane fireworks don’t exist,” said John Hall, NFPA’s division manager of fire analysis and research. “When things go wrong with fireworks, they go very wrong, very fast, far faster than any fire protection provisions can reliably respond.”

In recent years, fireworks have been one of the leading causes of injuries serious enough to require hospital emergency room treatment. Fireworks can result in severe burns, fractures, or scars or even death or disfigurement that can last a lifetime. The thousands of serious injuries each year typically harm the eyes, head, or

hands, and are mostly reported in states where fireworks are legal.

Even sparklers, which are considered by many to be harmless, reach temperatures of more than 1,000 degrees.

Wooded areas, homes, and even automobiles have become engulfed in flames because of fireworks. Fireworks-related fires have typically caused at least $20 million in property loss (not adjusted for inflation) each year in recent years. A substantial portion of the structure fire property loss due to fireworks typically involves bottle rockets or other fireworks rockets. These rockets can land on rooftops or wedge within certain structures and still retain enough heat to cause a fire.

Public fireworks displays are a safer alternative. Conducted by trained professionals, these displays are the smartest and safest choice for anyone because they are established under controlled settings and regulations. After these displays, or any other time, children should never pick up fireworks that may be left over.

Fireworks that have been ignited and fail to immediately explode or discharge can cause injury because they may still be active.

Children should always tell an adult if they find fireworks rather than picking up smoking or charred fireworks themselves, which is just too risky.

From NASP Safety Department

The Fourth of July holiday is a celebration of who we are as Americans. As we prepare to honor our national identity with parades, fireworks and backyard barbecues, it’s important to remember risk management.

The American people rely on the Navy and Marine Corps to make it back to work after the holiday in one piece.

CID CO Capt. Susan K. Cerovsky passes along family tradition of naval service Story, photo

by Gary Nichols CID Public Affairs

N

ASP Center for Information Dominance (CID) Commanding Officer Capt. Susan K. Cerovsky commissioned her nephew into the Navy Reserves June 9.

Standing in front of a World War I-era field ambulance at the National Museum of Naval Aviation, onboard NAS Pensacola.

Cerovsky, who has served in the U.S. Navy for nearly 29 years, passed on a Cerovsky family tradition of military service when she swore her nephew, Christopher Michael Cerovsky, into the U.S. Navy Reserves as a future medical corps officer.

“I’m so proud of him,” Capt.

Cerovsky said. “He is so smart, so squared away and so motivated. I’m sure he will make an outstanding naval officer.”

Ens. Cerovsky, 21, graduated from Mississippi State University magna cum laude this past spring with a bachelor’s degree in biological sciences and a

minor in microbiology. He also is a member of the prestigious Shackouls Honors College.

Ens. Cerovsky will be attending Temple University School of Medicine at Philadelphia, Penn., this fall. His medical education will be fully paid for thanks to his recent acceptance into the Navy’s Health Professions Scholarship Program (HPSP) in exchange for service as a commissioned medical corps officer.

Navy Officer Recruiting Station Pensacola Medical Officer Recruiter Lt. Juan Serrato, explained that the HPSP is a highly competitive program.

“It’s really a proud moment when you see fine young men and women enter the Navy

through the HPSP scholarship program,” Serrato said. “The academic excellence that this young man displayed helps ensures the future success of Navy medicine.”

Upon graduation from medical school in four years, Cerovsky will be promoted to an active-duty lieutenant, and he will serve in the Navy for eight years.

Not only has Capt. Cerovsky passed along her tradition of naval service, she also presented what will undoubtedly become a family heirloom, the Naval Education and Training Support

Command training manual, “Useful Information for Newly Commissioned Officers,” which she received when she was sworn into the Navy nearly three decades ago, to Ens. Cerovsky.

“I don’t think they publish this manual in printed form anymore,” Capt. Cerovsky said.

“But it still contains useful information for newly commissioned officers.”

Ens. Cerovsky said he was humbled to be presented with such a thoughtful gift along with the honor of being sworn in by his aunt, the CID commanding officer.

“I am just overwhelmed,” Ens. Cerovsky said. “I’m grateful to be able to carry on our family tradition of naval service.

Thank you all for being here today. I’ll do my duty to the best of my abilities, and I won’t let any of you down.”

Also present during the ceremony was Ens. Cerovsky’s father, Roger Cerovsky; his mother, Alison; his brother, Brian; his grandparents, Shirley and George Cerovsky; and uncle, Cmdr. Evan Hipsley.

5 books added to Navy reading program From U.S. Naval War College Public Affairs

NEWPORT, R.I. (NNS) – An update to the Chief of Naval Operation Professional Reading Program (CNO-PRP) was recently announced in NavAdmin 121/14.

The update serves to keep the CNO-PRP fresh and relevant and will include five new titles, which focus on professional development of Sailors throughout the fleet, to accompany the current 18 CNO-PRP books.

Titles included in this update are: “Cyber Security and Cyber War,” by P. W. Singer and A. Friedman; “Leading With the Heart,” by Mike Krzyzewski and D. Philips; “The Trident,” by

Jason Redman and J. Bruning; “Turn the Ship Around,” by retired Capt. David Marquet; and “The Twilight War,” by David Crist.

A kit containing the new titles is being shipped to commands throughout the fleet. Large commands will receive multiple copies of each title.

Commands with existing reading program libraries will integrate the new titles into legacy collections. Books from previous lists will be retained to build a lending library for the command.

A number of current and previous CNO-PRP titles are available for free loan as eBook or digital audio downloads from the Navy library e-content within the Navy General Library Program portal,

Your City, Your Magazine

which is accessible through Navy Knowledge Online.

Active participation in the CNO-PRP is highly encouraged for all Sailors. The intent of this program is to serve as a tool to help extend Sailors’ personal and professional growth beyond their day-to-day duties.

The CNO-PRP selections are designed to improve critical thinking skills and help Sailors become better citizens and leaders.

For more information on CNOPRP or to replace worn, damaged, and missing books, contact the CNO-PRP management office at http://navyreading.dodlive.mil.

Cmdr. Daniel Dolan, deputy program manager for the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Professional Reading Program, program manager professor John Jackson and Rear Adm. Walter E. “Ted” Carter Jr., president of the U.S. Naval War College, gather around a collection of books on the Navy’s list of recommended reading for all Sailors. Photo by MCC James E. Foehl
