Webster Field trucks provide integral on-site communications link By Donna Cipolloni Tester staff writer There’s a little piece of Webster Outlying Field in all 50 states. Whenever a state’s Civil Support Team (CST) is called into action, one of the vehicles they use is a blue truck called a Unified Command Suite — and all of those trucks are outfitted, updated and serviced at Webster Outlying Field in St. Inigoes, Md. Nick Creswell, systems manager with Webster’s Special Communications Requirements Division, described the UCS vehicle as a self-contained, stand alone mobile communications platform that can provide on-site voice, video and data communications capabilities. “It arrives and sets up a satellite reachback and acts as a central hub for all communications for the Civil Support Team and other government authorities,” he said.

Program prepares youth for job market By Donna Cipolloni Tester staff writer

It can be difficult finding a job in today’s economy, but a group of teens who recently participated in the Career Launch Summer Employment Program facilitated by the Rassieur Youth Center at Naval Air Station Patuxent River, made sure they have a head start on the competition. “The purpose of the program is to help the teens develop basic entry level job skills,” explained Sabrina Barnes, teen lead program assistant. “Useful skills they can list on a résumé in the future.” The Career Launch Program is divided into two categories: Leaders in Training, 13and 14-year-old volunteers who can apply their hours toward the community service requirement they need to graduate; and Work Wise, 15 to 18 year olds who earn minimum wage. The program launched in March with a presentation where the teens were informed about what to wear for interviews, how to present themselves and given a preview of what potential employers might ask them. “Most of the kids interviewed [for the program] are chosen unless they forget to bring paperwork they were supposed to bring,” Barnes said. “It helps teach them responsibility.”

Work Wise participants share summer experience Several students said when they signed up for Work Wise, they didn’t know what they were in for. The piles of paperwork and the selection process seemed a little daunting at first, but they endured and made it through. Below are the stories of how two Work Wise students spent their summer in the Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) department at Naval Air Station Patuxent River.

Kaitlyn Callander, 16, worked in the Morale, Welfare and Recreation offices during her stint as a Work Wise Career Launch Summer Program participant. Callander, pictured in her purple Work Wise team member T-shirt, photographed MWR sites across Naval Air Station Patuxent River for use in advertising fliers and on the website. The teens conveyed their top three choices of where they preferred to work based on a listing of openings, and Barnes did her best to comply. Throughout the program, she’d check in with them via email or telephone and, occasionally, dropped in on them where

Valencia Perry, 16 I wondered what types of jobs they’d give me, fearing that I would be cleaning up after people or catering to people all day. I signed up hoping they had a job in the writing and photography field; what better way to spend a summer? I was assigned work in the administrative offices for Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR). While I had no idea what it was at the time, the job description was a perfect fit to what I wanted to do. I thought working at MWR admin would be good training for the future since I want to pursue photojournalism or media/communications. I couldn’t wait to start working because they always said: “If you enjoy what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life.” At first, I was apprehensive but enthusiastic. My boss, Valerie Doster, MWR Marketing director, was warm and welcoming. I thought this was my dream job and I was blessed to have gotten a job I wanted, and an amazing boss who wasn’t too hard on us. My favorite assignment working with MWR was photographing Navy Recreation Center Solomons and the golf course. I was really able to sharpen my creativity at these places. They had really picturesque features and many different perspectives to do a shot. Some parts were not as striking, but Valerie offered pointers on how to make

Case closed: Lead attorney retires after three decades of service By Shannon Slaughter Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Public Affairs Intern

1-800-ASK-A-LAWYER? Not at the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD). For the past 10 years until he retired in July, James Carr was the NAWCAD lead counsel solving legal issues at Naval Air Station Patuxent River. Carr didn’t have requirements to take a case, and, unlike some billboard lawyers, he didn’t ask anyone to open their wallets. “I like working for the government because you aren’t motivated by fees or money,” he said just before his retirement. “You are simply there as a resource, and the challenge is to make yourself accessible.” For more than 30 years, Carr represented the Department of Defense, a career that began in the Army as a member of the Judge Advocate General Corps with duty stations spanning two continents. The NAWCAD lawyers like to say if someone really likes their support or they win a case, their “fee” is a tour of what that person does, which helps them to connect to the work they are doing, Carr said.

May the Record Reflect Carr’s legal career started at Fort Belvoir in 1983, where his duty assignments took him to Germany and back to the U.S. after four years of active duty in the Army. He returned to the U.S. for good in January 2004 when his experience and qualifications made him a perfect

With a career that began 30 years ago on active duty as a member of the Army’s Judge Advocate General Corps, James Carr represented the Department of Defense, with duty stations spanning two continents. He retired in July after serving as the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division’s lead counsel at Naval Air Station Patuxent River. fit to take over as head counsel here at Patuxent River. So, how did an “Army lawyer” find himself at a Navy base? Carr said it was the quality of the people. “Over the years, I had the pleasure of working with a lot of Navy attorneys,” Carr said. “Everyone I’d worked with I was really impressed by and I thought ‘You know, that’s a first class organization, somewhere I’d want to work.’” Carr led a team of 23 attorneys and paralegals here and at Naval Air Engineering Station, Lakehurst, N.J. “Every single one of them was top notch,” he said. NAWCAD Executive Director Gary Kessler said Carr “was one of those lawyers that anyone would want to have on their team. He al-

ways provided wise counsel and was truly interested in the things we are doing. He understood what our needs are and he developed solutions, which is something I valued from day one.” NAWCAD is primarily focused on research and engineering and Carr said he saw the legal department as more on the business and corporate operations side. “Most people here are engineers, scientists, test pilots. People on the operating end are the smartest group of people I’ve ever worked with,” Carr said. “Our job was to assist and facilitate them getting what they want and what they need.”

No Objections One of the biggest challenges

Career: 30 years as a DOD lawyer. Began career in the Army JAG Corps, then Army civilian attorney in Germany and lead environmental counsel for the Defense Logistics Agency in Alexandria, Va. He also worked for a defense agency in Europe before working as the NAWCAD counsel for almost 10 years. Family: Wife Judy and dog Scout, a rescued Australian shepherd Hobbies: Kayaking, hiking and traveling Favorite Sports Teams: Baltimore Ravens, Baltimore Orioles, Washington Capitals. Carr said he faced was getting that message across. He said he impressed upon people that legal counsel wasn’t like getting your teeth pulled. Lawyers are not the enemy, he said. They are a resource, and will find a legal way for clients to do what they want, if it is possible. “Getting to the point where clients trust you and include you as part of the team was important for us,” he said. “I tried to convey that feeling as the boss, so people aren’t adverse to coming and talking to us.” The only thing typical about his workday, Carr said, was that it was always atypical. Cases ranged from the normal to the quirky, including his last case dealing with protecting

radar programs from a new wind energy project on the Eastern Shore, to a crazy one where a man claimed to be the long-lost illegitimate son of Howard Hughes harboring secrets about the Glomar Explorer, to a favorite one where he ensured the Point No Point Lighthouse located in the Atlantic Test Ranges territory wasn’t sold to a buyer intending to set up a bed and breakfast. “Things stayed interesting,” Carr said. UPDATE: Carr has spent his first days of retirement enjoying every sunrise with his wife, Judy, and Australian shepherd, Scout, as he explores opportunities for the next adventure.

PMA-231 moves forward with full-rate production award Katherine Cotsonas E-2/C-2 Airborne Tactical Data System Program Office (PMA-231) communications specialist The E-2/C-2 Airborne Tactical Data System Program Office (PMA-231) awarded a $775 million contract to Northrop Grumman Corp. (NGC) for the full-rate production, Lot 1, of five E-2D Advanced Hawkeye aircraft in July. “A lot of hard work has gone into achieving this contract award,” said Capt. John S. Lemmon, PMA-231 program manager at Naval Air Station Patuxent River. “The E-2D team has experienced several significant milestones recently, coming together with one vision and one goal, and the contract award allows us to continue this legacy.” The E-2D was deemed “suitable and effective” in an Initial Operational Test and Evaluation report in December, aiding the Defense Acquisition Board in approving the aircraft for full-rate production in January. Full-rate production enables the manufacturing of the remaining 55 aircraft over the next 10 years and provides opportunity for a more cost-effective multiyear procurement.

NGC called the contract award a significant milestone for the E-2D program. “Moving from low-rate production into full-rate production validates that we have a stable production line, capable of manufacturing and delivering a mature and effective airborne early warning, battle management, command and control system,” said Bart LaGrone, vice president of E-2/C-2 programs, Northrop Grumman Aerospace Systems. The E-2D is the Navy’s all-weather, carrier-based tactical battle management airborne early warning command and control aircraft. The first of the five aircraft of the full-rate production Lot one contract is currently in production. The E-2D program is looking forward to a multi-year procurement contract award in 2014. Initial operational capability for the E-2D is planned for 2015.

PMA-290 receives acquisition excellence award By Elana Wigfall Maritime Patrol and Reconnaissance Aircraft Program Office (PMA-290) Public Affairs Intern The Maritime Patrol and Reconnaissance Aircraft Program Office (PMA-290) has every reason to hold its head a little higher this summer. The program, which delivers improved products and cost-wise readiness to Navy maritime patrol and reconnaissance forces and national intelligence agencies worldwide, and is one of the largest portfolios in the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), was recently recognized with the Dr. Al Somoroff Acquisition Excellence Award. Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Research, Development and Acquisition Sean Stackley presented the award to PMA-290 and also presented two other acquisition excellence awards to NAVAIR winners on July 24 at the NAVAIR headquarters at Naval Air Station Patuxent River. “This concept of taking a commercial aircraft and

in the accomplishment of its mission, according to the Department of the Navy Acquisition Award website. The program received the award for its efforts in delivering the first P-8A Poseidon aircraft to the fleet, reducing program costs and improving program readiness, said PMA-290’s deputy program manager, Martin Ahmad.

“The P-8A program has reduced production costs by 25 percent from the first limited rate production lot to the third limited rate production lot, and we expect to continue this trend with the fourth production lot award this summer,” Ahmad said. “Overall, the program has reduced lifecycle costs as estimated at the beginning of development

duction and sustainment. “The program manager, Capt. [Scott] Dillon, and I couldn’t be more proud of and honored to work with this group of highly skilled individuals,” Ahmad said. “It is because of their expertise, hard work and dedication to the fleet that PMA290 is receiving this award.”

NAVAIR business award recognizes financial management service excellence By Andrea Watters Naval Air Systems Command Corporate Communications The ability to answer numerous drills and sequestration-related data calls while meeting program objectives are some of the attributes of the 23 business and financial managers (BFMs) nominated for the command’s top financial award. Sponsored by Naval Air Systems Command’s (NAVAIR) Program and Business Analysis Department, the AIR 7.8 Headquarters Award for Excellence in Financial Management Service recognizes AIR 7.8 civilian and military employees for excellence in financial management service within the NAVAIR headquarters and program executive office (PEO) activities. More than 200 people attended the third annual award ceremony at the River’s Edge Catering and Conference Center at Naval Air Station Patuxent River on Aug. 14. “This award recognizes individuals whose contributions have left a lasting impact on AIR 7.8 and their customers through their dedication to service; commitment to fostering teamwork, positive customer relations; innovation in establishing efficient and effective

port of their program office. Teamwork and execution were also major factors. Nominations were submitted in two categories: business financial manager and lead business financial manager. Lita Enriquez, the Air Vehicle BFM for PMA-257, won the Business Financial Man-

ager category, in part, for her vast knowledge of her field and integrated program team (IPT), as well as her “ability to understand the impact of the IPTs’ changing priorities on execution and budgeting, and providing sound advice to her team

regarding impacts.” For Enriquez, the most important aspects of being a successful BFM include “being a good team player and always aiming for excellence. I was taught to always do my best in whatever I do,” she said. Her advice to

other BFMs, “Build a reputation for excellence. Embrace change and be open to understanding the diversity of the workplace in order to be a good team player. The modern workplace is no longer about individualism; you produce the product through team effort.” Execution and expertise as well as mentoring and training highlighted the accomplishments of the lead BFM nominees. The winner of the lead BFM category was Helene Corum, who is the lead BFM for NAVAIR headquarters and PEO Salary and Support Accounts and director of the Resource and Allocation team. Corum was nominated for her exceptional performance and critical advice on the impacts and ramifications of the continuing resolution and sequestration along with her development of funding strategies to minimize those impacts to NAVAIR headquarters programs. “I was grateful to be sitting amongst my peers being recognized for the hard work and skills each of us have,” Corum said. “I was surprised to say the least, but greatly appreciative to be the recipient of the 2013 award for financial excellence. I am thankful on a daily basis to be part of such a great team and community.”

Combating the bad guys

NAVAIR teams test GPS anti-jamming device on small UAV

The Navy’s Communications and GPS Navigation Program Office (PMW/A 170) mounted a Small Antenna System on an Aerostar unmanned aircraft then placed it in a room lined with signal-absorbent material, where it was subjected to GPS jamming signals at Naval Air Station Patuxent River. Part of an initiative to protect GPS technologies on small unmanned aerial vehicles, the Navy conducted the tests in July to demonstrate how miniaturized GPS protection devices can prevent interruption of the mission-critical global positioning data. the footprint normally required of such a system, which is now ideal for UAV incorporation and service,” Rushing said. “What makes us smarter is knowing our enemies

are smart and that we have to stay one step ahead of them. The SAS development is the latest GPS anti-jam capability to aid the war fighter in combating the bad guys.”

Part of an initiative to protect GPS technologies on small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), the Navy recently conducted tests to demonstrate how miniaturized GPS protection devices can prevent interruption of this mission-critical global positioning data. From July 10 to 24, the Communications and GPS Navigation Program Office (PMW/A 170), headquartered in San Diego, mounted a Small Antenna System (SAS) on an Aerostar unmanned aircraft, then placed the small UAV in a room lined with signalabsorbent material at the FARM (Facilities for Antenna and RCS Measurements), where it was subjected to GPS jamming signals. Equipped with model jammers, the FARM facility was used as a stage for the “enemy” to jam the GPS signal and try to knock the UAV off course, said Eric Stevens, the Unmanned Aircraft Systems Communications and Navigation lead for PMW/A-170, which supplied the antenna system. Knocked off course, the UAV would not be able to relay critical intelligence back to the ground control station — disrupting communications among U.S. and allied forces’ ships, aircraft and submarines. In a worst-case scenario, GPS jamming could even cause UAVs to crash. “If an enemy is trying to jam, or interfere, with the GPS frequency, this antenna

allows us to be able to track and acquire the true GPS satellites even in the midst of this jamming and interference,” Stevens said. “What we are doing is demonstrating and quantifying the value of this antenna on small UAVs.” PMW/A-170, aligned under the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) at Naval Air Station Patuxent River and the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command in San Diego partnered with Naval Test Wing Atlantic, which supplied the Aerostar, to conduct July’s testing. Personnel and teams from the Maritime Unmanned Development and Operations (MUDO); the Navy and Marine Corps Small Tactical Unmanned Air Systems Program Office (PMA 263); and an engineering team from the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division’s Radar and Antenna Systems Department also supported the event. Personnel involved in the testing were optimistic about the results. “We are hoping to gain some ground and show there are smaller GPS protection solutions out there,” said Michelle Jackson, an electronics engineer with experience in testing SAS systems on other platforms. Equipped with the SAS, the Aerostar will be also used to support a U.S. Army pre-deployment war-game scenario conducted at Fort Polk, La., in August, said Donn Rushing, the project lead for MUDO. Rushing participated in the Fort Polk exercises last year and said the addition of the GPS anti-jamming antenna will give the “good guys” an edge this year. “This new anti-jam system decreases

Continued from 1 they worked. The teens were required to track and submit their hours. Brothers Kyle and Eric Gronda both wanted to gain work experience. Kyle, 15, chose the Auto Hobby Shop because he wanted to learn more about cars, and kept busy assigning and scheduling work bays; recycling auto fluids; picking up vehicles for repairs; signing cars into the lemon lot and assisting with customer service, tool crib management and shop maintenance. “I liked helping customers and learned a lot about common auto repairs,” he said. “I learned you should ask for help when you need it – especially when doing a brake job – or you might end up doing circles in the parking lot with a car that can’t stop!” Eric, 14, worked with kids at the Mattapany Day Camp along with Bryan Fuesel, 16. “I played with the kids, moved boxes, got water, swept cabins and picked up toys,” Eric said, “and I learned a lot about teamwork.” Bryan had wanted to help out at the camp because he attended it himself when he was younger. “I enjoyed playing games with the kids and showing them some new things,” he said, “and I learned how to solve a problem by approaching it in different ways.” Matthew Fan, 15, has the goal of becoming an engineer or programmer some day and specifically wanted to work in an office setting. “I chose the [Information, Tickets and Tours] office where I could benefit from simple things such as word processing, customer service, using the land lines, faxing and much more,” he said. “I knew an office experience would’ve been hard to come by outside of the program.”

Tester Brian Bizier, 16, decided to join to do something interesting this summer, and he wasn’t disappointed. “I worked at the Environmental Center and previously I hadn’t really had much interest in environmental sciences, but I ended up having an incredible amount of fun,” he said. “I did a huge variety of things – bald eagle surveys, searched for Diamondback Terrapin nests, assisted with education programs, fed animals and cleaned tanks.” Bizier remembers one especially exciting day was when he observed a garter snake giving birth. “That day, I learned the meaning of the word ovoviviparous,” he said, chuckling. Valencia Perry and Kaitlyn Callander, both 16, worked in the offices of Morale, Welfare and Recreation taking photographs of the MWR facilities around the installation. “We took pictures for use in advertising like fliers and the website,” Kaitlyn said. “We also took the pictures and made PowerPoint slides that will be shown at the [Center Stage] movie theater before the movie plays.” Valencia said they went to some interesting places to shoot and “learned so much about cameras, marketing and Photoshop.” This year, there were 28 participants in Leaders in Training, and 52 more in Work Wise. “The program keeps getting bigger every year,” Barnes said. “Lots of teens return again the following year but it’s becoming harder to place them. We’re always open to more work sites taking more teens. We want to maximize the number of teens we can help by getting them those valuable work skills.” Any department interested in becoming a future Career Launch Summer Program worksite can contact either Sabrina Barnes at 995-4177 or sabrina.barnes@navy.mil; or Keetje Straub, youth center director, at 3424498 or keetje.straub@navy.mil.

Continued from 1 vides the on-site capability to tie different radio networks together to facilitate the flow between different organizations and agencies,” Creswell said, “and it can also provide secure and non-secure network access for FBI agents or local first responders to get out on the Internet and do what they need to do.” Working on behalf of the National Guard and other external sponsors, Creswell’s team does everything from assisting with the financial aspect of the UCS and acquisition of the trucks, to engineering design and analysis, program planning and management, lifecycle sustainment and logistics. The truck bodies are outfitted at Webster Field with both commercial and government off-the-shelf technology. “We’ll take the best of any one product and select the right components to go on the truck, repackaging them into the correct configurations,” Creswell said. “We’ll integrate them, test them, and bring them together as a turnkey solution. We’re hired to build a complete system, certify it, and make sure it’s safe and suitable before turning [the vehicle] over to its actual operator.” Creswell’s team also provides a 24/7 help desk and, when a call comes in about a problem, staff manning the desk must quickly determine which component needs to go to the site to fix the situation. “If it’s routine, the component will ship the next day via Federal Express,” Creswell explained. “If it’s urgent, it will be driven to the airport and put on a plane. If it’s extremely urgent, one of our staff will physically travel with the part and deliver it to the CST team on site.”

With technology constantly improving and changing, it’s necessary to keep the trucks relevant by doing some sort of modernization every 18 to 24 months and Creswell said every truck will eventually rotate back through Webster Field for upgrade. “The commercial industry around us changes quickly and in order to remain relevant and operable with police, fire, FBI and other government agencies, we have to update the technology on board to stay right there with them, or we couldn’t talk with them on their networks,” he said. Jerry Cathey served on the 61st CST from Arkansas for 10 years and now works as a government contractor. Cathey was involved in major incidents such as Hurricane Katrina and the disintegration of the space shuttle Columbia over Texas. “In addition to providing all of the communications capabilities required by the CST, the UCS can bridge the communications capabilities of the first response community by allowing whoever needs to communicate to be able to communicate,” Cathey said. “If someone needs to talk to someone on their cell phone from a radio; it can make that happen. It can allow a hand held radio to talk with a helicopter hovering overhead. It provides television service so responders on scene can see what’s going on around them. It provides Internet to track where patients are being sent. It’s like the network closet at the end of the hallway that can do just about anything.” Creswell credits the program’s success to the people who make it work. “We have just the right mix of government employees, contractors and leadership here in the division,” he said. “Because of our people and structure — the way the contracts are set up, our personnel approach and the job’s mission — we can move quickly and at a reasonable cost.”
