NAS Pensacola celebrates 365 days free of ARI

By Ens. James Griffin NASP Public Affairs

Naval Air Station Pensacola celebrated a milestone of more than 365 days free of alcohol related incidents (ARI) in a cake cutting ceremony April 14 at Bldg. 1504.

NASP Commanding Officer, Capt. Christopher Martin, congratulated his Sailors on looking out for each other and doing the right thing.

“It’s about being responsible, you all are setting the example on base and you have set the bar high,” said Martin. “If you can set a milestone like this, you can do it for anything.”

Coincidently, April is Alcohol Awareness Month sponsored by The National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence (NCADD). Since 1987 NCADD has partnered with communities to teach

people about alcohol, alcoholism and recovery.

Programs from Navy Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention help Sailors be responsible with alcohol and assist some with alcoholism and recovery. Programs such as; “Keep What You’ve Earned” and “Who Will Stand Your Watch,” encourage responsible drinking among Sailors by celebrating the achievements in their Navy careers and educate Sailors about the consequences of poor decisions regarding alcohol.

NAS Pensacola Executive Officer Cmdr. Shawn Dominguez presented a check to Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society (NMCRS) April 18 for last month’s Rock N Fly Half Marathon and 5K. This was the third year for the Rock N Fly and it has become the top fundraiser for the NMCRS outside of the D.C. area.

This year, the half marathon and

5K raised $35,000 dollars for NMCRS. These funds will help provide programs and services to activeduty and retired local Sailors, Marines and their families.

“We are amazed by the success of this event and these funds make a big difference in what we can do for our Sailors, Marines, and their families,” said Mark Harden, NMCRS director.

The Rock N Fly event had two jumbotrons, post-race live music, 15 music stations, two DJ stations on the course, karaoke station, electrifying national anthem, a hippie vs.

mullet contest, brownie vs. bacon station, floats and a rocker costume contest at the race.

The event has raised more than $100,000 in the last three years while giving back 100 percent of funds to charity after paying for the race. No other race in Pensacola has ever donated that amount of money in its first few years, officials said.

“I want to thank all the volunteers and participants and encourage them to mark their calendars for next year’s Rock N Fly, ‘Soul Train’,” said Harden.

Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society and base personnel involved with the third Rock N Fly Half Marathon and 5K Run pause for a celebratory moment at the check presentation April 18.

Navy training launches new course, app for LifeSkills From Naval Education and Training Command Public Affairs

Naval Education and Training Command implemented a new four-day LifeSkills course to address the Sailorization process and re-enforce everyday skills for Sailors beginning in April.

Supplementing the class is a “Life Skills Reach Back” mobile app now available for download.

“The class, coupled with the mobile app, increases its value and reinforces our dedication to training our Sailors,” said Rear Adm. Mike White, commander, Naval Education and Training Command. “It’s instrumental to be able to have these resources available to our Sailors and leaders.”

Topics included in the both the class and the mobile app are military pay and entitlements, banking and financial management, investment and savings, nutrition and physical readiness, healthy relationships, stress management, responsible alcohol and drug use, operational risk management, hazing and fraternization, sexual assault prevention and operational security.

While the four-day class offers faceto-face interaction taught by naval military training instructors, the mobile app reinforces the classroom delivery and provides additional information for the Sailor at their convenience.

Although the class is a requirement and taught to all new accession Sailors who have completed recruit training, the app can be useful for any Sailor as well as a tool for Navy family members.

“The LifeSkills app is a great way for Sailors to refresh their knowledge gained in the four-day course,” said NETC Director of Training Cmdr.

Emond had been training for months and had learned to recognize Japanese ships and planes from cue cards. When the bombs started falling he became a stretcher bearer for the dead and wounded.

“I felt disappointed that war had come with a surprise attack and I began to realize it would be a long thing,” Emond said.

Emond had enjoyed the beauty and tranquility of Hawaii before the attack. He had enjoyed the sights, sounds, and the smell of flowers on shore visits.

Japan had dealt a serious blow to American military power in the Pacific and the morale of all Americans.

Soon afterward strategists and aviators such as United States Army Air Force’s (USAAF) Lt. Col. Jimmy Doolittle were working on a way to strike back.

Hack the Pentagon pilot program announced

By Cheryl Pellerin DoD News, Defense Media Activity

I

f you are a computer security specialist, or at least a white hat hacker, who’s always wanted to take a run at the Pentagon, here’s your chance.

A pilot program called Hack the Pentagon is being launched this month.

It’s the first cyber bug bounty program in the history of the federal government, and it will offer incentives, to be determined, to those who find vulnerabilities and exploits.

Pentagon Press Secretary Peter Cook recently announced the pilot, and a senior DoD official offered details of the program.

Not familiar with bug bounties?

They are basically offers by software developers and companies to reward people who research and report bugs, especially any related to vulnerabilities or hacking exploits.

Jarrett Ridlinghafer, at the time a technical support engineer for Netscape, created the first “bugs bounty” program in 1995, according to

How to submit a commentary

the entrepreneur’s website.

Today bugsheet.com has a directory of 369 bounty programs offered by everyone from Adobe and Amazon to Twitter and Sony.

“We can’t hire every great ‘white hat’ hacker to come in and help us,” a senior defense official told reporters, “but (Hack the Pentagon) allows us to use their skill sets, their expertise, to help us build better, more secure products.”

Cook said the DoD will commercial-sector use crowdsourcing to let qualified hackers conduct vulnerability identification and analysis on the department’s public webpages — specific target to be determined.

“The bug bounty program is modeled after similar competitions conducted by some of the nation’s biggest companies to improve the

security and delivery of networks, products and digital services,” Cook said.

The pilot is the first in a series of programs designed to test and find vulnerabilities in the DoD’s applications, websites and networks, he added.

Pentagon bug bounty hackers have to register and pass a background check before they take part in a controlled, limited-duration program to identify vulnerabilities on a live DoD system.

Cook said other networks, including the DoD’s critical, mission-facing systems, won’t be part of the bug bounty pilot.

As is routine in the private sector, he said bug bounty hunters will receive monetary awards — bounties — for their successful efforts.

The Pentagon’s Defense Digital Service, launched by Defense Secretary Ash Carter last November, leads Hack the Pentagon. Leading DDS is director and technology en-

trepreneur Chris Lynch.

DDS is an arm of White House technology experts at the U.S. Digital Service and includes a small team of engineers and data experts who work to improve DoD’s technological agility.

The senior defense official said DDS exists to bring in best practices from the private sector, so everything from talent to technology and processes “to transform how we build products, digital services and technologies at the DoD. One of those best practices is the bug bounty.

As Hack the Pentagon is fleshed out, a live asset will be chosen as the target for the hackers, the senior defense official said.

“We see this growing into something that we can use as a broader tool to help make our systems and our services more secure, not only for the Department of Defense but across the federal government,” the official said.

More information is expected soon, so get ready to get vetted and Hack the Pentagon. For program details, go to https://hackerone.com/ hackthepentagon.

74th anniversary of the Doolittle Raid on Japan From Naval History and Heritage Command

O

n April 18, 1942, it was a “nice sunshiny day overcast with anti-aircraft fire,” according to Army Air Force Tech. Sgt. Eldred V. Scott. Above Tokyo, anyway. Scott’s weather quip signaled the near completion of the Doolittle Raiders’ mission on that day 74 years ago this week. But it was just the beginning of the unknown for the 80 men and their 16 planes.

Seven of those Airmen would never return home. None of the planes did. While the bombing mission itself was relatively minor in terms of damage inflicted, the raid set into motion what would become a pivotal naval victory for the United States at the Battle of Midway.

The Doolittle Raid featured Army Air Force pilots and planes, but it was a joint effort with the Navy. The raid itself was concocted by Navy Capt. Francis Lowe. Another Navy officer, Lt. Henry L. Miller, is one of two men named as “Honorary Tokyo Raiders.” Miller supervised the take-off training the pilots received at what is now nearby Eglin Air Force Base, and was there for the raid launch. The other was Tung Sheng Liu, a Chinese engineer who helped several Tokyo Raiders escape to safety.

And it was the Navy that provided the transportation – via USS Hornet (CV 8) and her escorts – to the launch point.

The Navy wasn’t without its losses for the Tokyo Raid. One patrol plane was hit by anti-aircraft fire, landing in the water, but the crew was recovered uninjured. Another patrol plane was lost during patrol operations, with both the plane and crew lost. And during the hour-long launch, a Sailor lost his arm after being hit by the final B-25 when it rolled backward out of position, striking him with its propeller.

From conception to launch: After Pearl Harbor, there was pressure from the commanderin-chief to strike back at Japan.

Using carrier-capable aircraft to strike the enemy’s homeland would put a carrier task force into harm’s way for a counterattack, since the lighter Navy planes didn’t have the range of land-based bomb-delivering aircraft. And with only three aircraft carriers left in the Pacific fleet after Pearl Harbor, the United States needed to protect every asset.

Lowe, assigned to U.S. Fleet Commander Adm. Ernest J. King, had seen B-25s taking off from Norfolk, Va., using airstrips

shaped a little like a carrier deck, minus the rolling waves. The Mitchell medium bombers, which had never been used in combat before, had the range and the wing-span that would allow for carrier takeoff. Lt. Col. James H. “Jimmy” Doolittle, an air racer who had helped develop instrument flying, was brought in to investigate the feasibility of such a mission, along with King’s Air Ops officer, Capt.

Donald B. “Wu” Duncan.

The newly commissioned aircraft carrier Hornet left Norfolk under the command of Capt.

Marc Mitscher to join a convoy to the Panama Canal. Meanwhile Doolittle had chosen his raiders, five-man crews for the 16 planes, and was training for 500-foot takeoffs at Eglin AFB, under the guidance of Miller. At the end of March, Hornet docked at Alameda, Calif. Using cranes, 16 B-25s were loaded onto the ship’s deck. With all of the planes loaded and lashed to the deck, the Hornet moored in the bay for the night. It was April 1. The following morning, Hornet’s crew was made aware of their mission.

On April 7, naval operation plan No. 20-42 was issued, creating Task Force 16, with Task Group 16.1 under Vice Adm. William “Bull” Halsey with flagship carrier Enterprise (CV 6) and her escorts. Task Group 16.2 was headed by Capt. Mitscher with his carrier Hornet (CV 8) and her escorts.

The instructions were simple.

Proceed after joining up to carry out the attack; upon completion return to Pearl Harbor; destroy enemy forces as long as it does not jeopardize the attack. The two task groups met up April 13 and proceeded to steam toward a point 500 miles east of Tokyo, where they would launch.

To prepare each B-25, loaded with a ton of bombs, for its mission and flight to a safe zone in China, engineers removed the tail gunner section, painting broomsticks to look like machine guns.

A rubber fuel tank was installed in the tail section, along with 10 five-gallon gas cans for manual

fuel addition during the flight to a tank installed where the lower gun turret was, and a larger tank located in the bomb bay.

Air patrols scouted the sea looking for enemy ships that could relay their location back to Japan, and two submarines kept a steady surveillance.

After plowing through galeforce winds of 36 knots during the afternoon of April 17, enemy vessels were picked up on radar at 3:12 a.m. April 18. A light on the horizon confirmed their presence. The task group changed direction by 350 degrees and 30 minutes later, the vessels left the radar screen.

At 7:15 a.m., an Enterprise search plane reported an enemy patrol vessel and the task force sighted it at 7:44 a.m. Cruiser Nashville (CL 43) dispatched the vessel with gunfire. Over concern the vessel had alerted the Japanese of their presence, Doolittle decided to launch the planes immediately, still 400 miles from their original launch destination.

The first B-25, flown by Doolittle, launched at 8:20 a.m.

The take-offs were timed for when the ship’s bow pitched highest to give the Mitchells more loft.

Around 2 p.m., aircraft from Enterprise picked up two more enemy vessels, sinking one and damaging the other.

It wasn’t until after the war the Navy was able to confirm crew on the patrol boat had alerted the Japanese of their location. But when they requested confirmation, there was no answer since the vessel had already been sunk.

Getting no response, the Japan-

ese government chose to ignore the message.

The Doolittle Raiders faced some resistance from antiaircraft fire, but most were able to hit their 10 targets in Japan. The repercussions of the United States hitting the Japanese homeland set in motion a tsunami-like strategic response that would ultimately change the tides of war to an American victory.

Army Air Force raid that set up naval victory: After Doolittle’s Raiders dropped bombs on Tokyo, the Japanese military reaction was swift and vengeful. Japanese Combined Fleet commander Adm. Isoroku Yamamoto decided to strike the United States’ mid-Pacific base at Midway atoll and turn it into a Japanese air field. Yamamoto knew the United States had insufficient strength to defeat his Imperial Navy, which could generally choose where and when to attack.

The Americans, however, had deduced Yamamoto’s attack through communications intelligence. Adm. Chester Nimitz, the U.S. Pacific Fleet commander, established an ambush and was waiting for the Imperial Navy.

The second of the Pacific war’s great carrier battles began June 4, 1942, and by the end, Yamamoto’s forces lost four fleet carriers compared to just one for the United States.

The Battle of Midway had leveled the naval playing field for the American naval force.

The base at Midway, though damaged by Japanese air attack, remained operational and later became a vital component in the American trans-Pacific offen-

sive, which soon had the Japanese Imperial Navy on the ropes.

“The best laid plans…”

After completing their bombing mission, finding safe haven would be the raiders’ toughest task. Taking off 400 miles sooner than planned had the planes nearly empty on fuel as they headed toward China. Of the 16 planes, 15 either crash-landed or the crews bailed out. Only one plane landed – in Russia – where the crew was held as prisoners with liberal privileges. They escaped 13 months after the raid to a British consulate in Iran.

Seven Doolittle Raiders were killed in the mission: Two drowned and a third was killed by the fall after bailing out; eight were captured by the Japanese.

Three of the eight POWs were executed Oct. 15, 1942, and another died of malnutrition Dec. 1, 1943. The surviving four POWs were released in August 1945.

Even though the Doolittle Raiders bombed Tokyo, it was the Chinese who suffered the most from the raid. Furious that the Chinese nationalists were protecting the Americans, the Japanese retaliated against several coastal cities suspected of harboring the Americans, killing an estimated 250,000 Chinese citizens.

Doolittle was so convinced his mission had been a failure, he was convinced he would face a court-martial upon his return to the United States. Instead, he was promoted to general, skipping the rank of colonel. He and all of his raiders were awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross.

Coleman turns command of HT-18 over to Sanderson

By Jamie Link NAS Whiting Field Public Affairs

H

elicopter Training Squadron 18 (HT-18) observed a change in leadership April 14 as commanding officer Lt. Col. Rafford Coleman relinquished command of the unit to Cmdr. Brian Sanderson, the previous executive officer.

The change of command ceremony is a time-honored Navy tradition that stems from the days of wooden ships when there may be months between communications with the mainland. The ceremony served as an opportunity for the assembled crew to meet the new officer as he read the orders that authorized him to take command of the vessel. Although modern technology allows for advance knowledge of the new commanding officer, the ceremonial reading of orders, the symbolic transfer of command, and the opportunity for service members to say farewell to a beloved commander, remain a steadfast part of Navy tradition.

Serving first as the executive officer for the command and then as commanding officer, Coleman

displayed unmatched dedication to safe, quality training throughout his two and one-half year tour. Under his leadership, HT18 exceeded its fiscal year 2015 pilot training goals, designating 189 Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard and allied helicopter aviators. Coleman, furthermore, led the “Vigilant Eagles” in the execution of more than 55,000 flight hours across 30,000 syllabus training evolutions. HT-18 set the standard for advanced rotary wing production in key metrics including: lowest time-to-train and total hours flown. Under his leadership, the squadron provided the core of future aviation warfighters to meet the nation’s demands.

Benjamin Ziemski

recognized Coleman’s outstanding contributions to the “Vigilant Eagles” with the Meritorious Service Medal.

Before being transferred to Training Air Wing Five in May 2013 and assuming duties with HT-18, Coleman started out his career as an enlisted Marine.

Serving four years with the Marine Reserve and completing a deployment to Saudi Arabia, Coleman graduated from Rutgers University and accepted a commission in 1993. He attended flight training at NAS Whiting Field and earned his aviator’s wings at the installation from TraWing-5 in 1996. Since then, he has been deployed aboard USS Guam (LPH 9) and USS Wasp (LHD 1) as a member of HMM-263; an instructor pilot with HT-8; assigned to HMM-261 in support of Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom; served in Okinawa, Japan; and assumed duties as assistant officer in charge for the III Marine Expeditionary Force Special Training Group.

Also serving as the guest speaker, Murray described Coleman as “brilliant and an incredible officer” whose integrity impacted everyone around him.

“This Marine did it right,” Murray said. “He leads from the front.”

Following the presentation of

the medal, Coleman stepped to the lectern to address the HT-18 staff and crew for the final time as the commanding officer. He spoke about the hard work and sacrifice it takes for a unit to function properly.

“Ladies and gentlemen, that’s a team. A family, that while not all related by blood, is a group of persons under one roof in an organization steeped in tradition and success.

“A clan galvanized with one common aim, a relentless philosophy of winning, teaching and loyalty to each other 24 hours a day seven days a week. This willingness to unselfishly give your all so that others may succeed ... this is the HT-18 way.”

Coleman extended many “thank you” messages to many individuals, squadrons, support elements, local lacrosse folks, service members, instructor pilots, other family members to include his mother in attendance, friends and lastly his wife, Shannon, and other command spouses.

“I would also say the spouses of HT-18 are warriors too,” he said. “They are teammates that ensure those who wear the nation’s (uniform) go to work every day focused on protecting, mentoring and training officers for the future,” he said, as he expressed his appreciation for his wife con-

vincing him to stay in the Marines. “You are ‘Wonder Woman,’ Shannon. The S that begins your name stands for super. You have always been my biggest fan, best adviser and greatest friend.”

Coleman and Sanderson strode to the front of the stage and stood at attention as the seniormost enlisted person in the squadron brought the command pennant forward. Coleman received the HT-18 command pennant, then turned and presented the flag to Sanderson, symbolically passing command of HT-18 to Sanderson. Sanderson returned the flag to the HT-18 command chief, AWC Jason Pulk. Sanderson’s wife, April, then moved forward to pin the command insignia to the left breast of his uniform.

After officially accepting leadership from Murray with an exchange of salutes and a reading of his orders, Sanderson thanked Coleman for his guidance.

“To another high-caliber Marine, ‘Juice,’ your devotion to HT18 is immeasurable. No words can fully capture your incredible leadership, your passion for teaching, and infectious positive attitude. You have given me the keys to a well-oiled machine and it has been an honor to serve as your executive officer,” Sanderson said.

April 22, 2016: Earth Day @U.S. Navy From http://greenfleet. dodlive.mil/energy/

Earth Day was founded in 1970 by Sen. Gaylord Nelson as a grassroots effort to increase awareness of environmental issues. Since the 1990s, the Department of the Navy and other military services have typically celebrated Earth Day annually with themes, “green” installation events that are open to the public and/or military personnel, participation in community and/or educational outreach activities, and articles or other information products that highlight local Earth Day events and ongoing Navy/Marine Corps environmental and energy programs.

Navy and Marine Corps commands worldwide celebrate Earth Day on the official date of April 22 and throughout the months of April and May, depending on the climate of their operating areas and the nature of their day-to-day missions. Earth Day activities build relationships across

As that mission continues, the U.S. Navy also has a responsibility to serve as a good steward of the environment. The Navy demonstrates that commitment by investing in programs that minimize, and in some cases eliminate, the effects of its operations on the environment.

North to be keynote speaker at EOD event May 7 Story, photo from EOD Warrior Foundation

The joint service Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) community has scheduled the 48th annual EOD Ball for May 7 at the Emerald Coast Convention Center, 1250 Miracle Strip Parkway SE, in Fort Walton Beach.

This year’s keynote speaker is retired Marine Lt. Col. Oliver North. Tickets to the ball are $75 each and can be purchased online at www. eodwarriorfoundation.org.

The EOD Ball is the main event after a week full of emotional ceremonies for this elite group of military bomb dis-

posal professionals. These events include a golf tournament May 6 at Eglin Air Force Base, a live auction at the

same location as the ball and the EOD memorial ceremony at 9 a.m. May 7 at Eglin Air Force Base. The EOD events benefit the EOD Warrior Foundation.

“Our annual ball is a memorable night for all who attend, and it helps benefit a great cause,” said Nicole Motsek, executive director of the EOD Warrior Foundation. “It is a tremendous privilege to have Lt. Col. Oliver North as the keynote speaker for this year’s event. This is a night to remember those EOD warriors who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom and to honor their families.”

The EOD Warrior Founda-

tion is a nonprofit organization that helps active-duty military EOD personnel, veterans and their families.

There are around 7,000 EOD (explosive ordnance disposal) technicians in the military, performing the most dangerous job in the military as they disarm explosive devices on the battlefields. Many EOD personnel come home with debilitating injuries, including lost limbs, blindness, paralysis, traumatic brain injuries (TBI), burns, and the invisible wounds of war, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

North is a combat-decorated U.S. Marine who hosts

the award-winning military series “War Stories with Oliver North” on the Fox News Channel.

“Since my days in Vietnam, I have had the privilege to keep company the brave men and women of the EOD community. They are saviors on the battlefields who take the long walk to the bomb and go into harm’s way to make the situation safe for others. The EOD Ball will certainly be a night to remember,” North said.

Known as “the Gulf Coast’s Greatest Beach Party,� the annual Interstate Mullet Toss is a spring tradition at Flora-Bama Lounge, which sits on Alabama-Florida state line on Perdido Key. The event typically draws huge crowds.

The torpedo-shaped fish are a local favorite. You will find fried, baked, broiled or smoked mullet on the menus of many local restaurants.

There are numerous categories for contestants.

Celebrity tossers will be featured at noon each day.

proximately a pound.

The rules are simple: No gloves or sand can be used when throwing. Contestants pick a mullet out of a bucket, and they have to retrieve the mullet and toss it back into the bucket after the throw. Mullet are thrown from a 10-foot circle down a designated alley.

All tossers receive a mullet toss T-shirt. Top finishers get trophies and gift certificates.

For spectators the event offers beach games, live music and food.

Parking is limited. There will be a $10 charge for parking in the beach lot. Bus service will be available from 9 a.m. to closing for $5 per person each way. One of the pick up locations is the Winn-Dixie in Perdido Key. The cover charge is $10 for 21 and older and $15 for ages 13 to 21.

Each year, the event generates more than $20,000 in charitable donations. A contribution for each fish flung goes to local youth charities, including the Community Drug & Alcohol Council (CDAC), which offers programs to address drug and alcohol abuse, tobacco, mental health issues and violence.

If you are a victim of sexual assault, it is not your fault. Help for victims of sexual assault in the DoD community is a call, click or text away: The SafeHelpline provides live, one-on-one crisis support and information by trained staff. Call: (877) 995-5247; click: www.SafeHelpline.org; or text: 55-247, CONUS; (202) 470-5546, OCONUS (may be extra charges for OCONUS).

The Sexual Assault Prevention and Response (SAPR) Program provides prevention, intervention and a 24/7/365 response to non-intimate partner adult victims of sexual assault. Active-duty and adult family member sexual assault victims have a choice of reporting options, unrestricted and restricted. Unrestricted reporting allows victim to have an advocate, seek medical care, counseling, legal services, safety interventions and/or transfer, etc. To access an unrestricted report, the victim may report to his/her chain-ofcommand, security/law enforcement, NCIS, SAPR VA, SARC, or others. NCIS shall be notified by the CO and/or the VA/SARC in unrestricted cases to begin investigation. Investigation results are provided to the offender’s CO for appropriate action/disposition. Restricted reporting allows a victim to have a confidential report, which does not trigger command or law enforcement notification and the victim may have a SAPR VA and seek medical care and/or counseling. To access restricted reporting, the victim may disclose his/her sexual assault only to the SARC, a current SAPR VA, a health care professional and/or a chaplain.

To contact the NASP 24/7 Victim Advocate, call 449-9231/2. For the Civilian Victim Advocate, call 293-4561. To contact the duty SARC, call the SARC cell at 554-5606.
