NASP emergency management encourages hurricane preparedness Story, photo NAS Pensacola Public Affairs

The Naval Air Station (NAS) Pensacola Emergency Management Office encouraged service members, their families and civilian employees to ensure their hurricane preparedness plans are finalized before the Gulf Coast hurricane season begins June 1.

Burt Fenters, the NAS Pensacola Emergency Manager, said preparation for any potential natural disaster is of paramount consideration, and the thousands of NAS Pensacola community members who could be impacted by a potential Gulf Coast hurricane should take the coming weeks to prepare.

“Hurricane Season Preparedness is a year-long process,” he said. “During the off-season (Dec. 1 through May 30), items that take time to incorporate into your plans such as storm shutter inspections and home hardening projects (hurricane strap additions) should take place. This time of year, indi-

Fenters is stressing the importance of National Hurricane Preparedness Week (May 5 through 11) to the NAS Pensacola community as hurricane season begins June 1.

viduals should be reviewing how to secure their belongings, checking their sheltering-inplace kits to replace renewable items and reviewing evacuation plans.”

Fenters advised that National

Hurricane Preparedness Week, May 5 through 11, is a time to make final preparations for potential storms. He suggested that determining the types of hazards a potential hurricane could bring to your area

– storm surge, rip currents, inland flooding, tornados and strong winds – should be the first consideration.

“Certain areas of Pensacola can be impacted differently than others,” he said. “The

obvious damage that can occur from a hurricane are storm surge and wind, but inland flooding and tornados have also inflicted serious damage on houses and other structures during storms. People, to this day, still do not absorb the post storm reports from previous incidents. Inland flooding is the primary cause of death in a tropical system – not storm surge or wind.”

According to Fenters, NAS Pensacola community members should develop an evacuation plan, including a method of receiving up-to-date information through various channels. He said the NAS Pensacola Facebook page will post the most current information on any potential weather threat to the Pensacola area, and information contained on this page will be considered the official message from the air station.

Fenters also said NAS Pensacola community members to gather supplies before the See Hurricane on page 2

By Billy P. Martin Naval School Explosive Ordnance Disposal Public Affairs

EGLIN AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. (NNS) – Naval School Explosive Ordnance Disposal (NAVSCOLEOD) hosted the 50th annual Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Memorial Ceremony at the EOD Memorial onboard Eglin Air Force Base May 4.

The EOD community from each of the joint services

gathered to honor the memory of 338 fallen EOD heroes and add the names of three additional EOD technicians to the memorial.

Those added to the memorial this year include: Army Sgt. Joseph P. Collette, who was killed in action March 22 while serving in Afghanistan; Army Sgt. James Allen Slape, who was killed in action Oct. 4, 2018 while serving in Afghanistan; and Army 1st Lt. William F. “Bill” Alter, who was killed in action June 11, 1945 while serving

Former Vietnam POW speaks at Naval Aviation Schools Command

By Ens. Stewart Bova Naval Aviation Schools Command Public Affairs

Retired U.S. Air Force Capt. William “Bill” Robinson, a former prisoner of war (POW) in Vietnam, spoke to hundreds of Naval Aviation Schools Command (NASC) students April 26.

Robinson grew up in eastern North Carolina and enlisted in the U.S. Air Force in 1961. He served several assign-

ments within the United States and a year-long tour in Korea. At the rank of airman first class, Robinson transferred to Thailand to serve with an air rescue and recovery unit in the Spring of 1965.

He conducted operations in support of the Vietnam War until his rescue helicopter, a Kaman HH43B “Huskie,” was shot down while attempting to recover a downed F-105D pilot. Surviving the See POW @NASC on page 2

Shanahan stated in a letter to NAVSCOLEOD, “Our EOD technicians have a long legacy of providing our nation critical service in the face of great danger. This year’s memorialization of Sgt. Joseph P. Collette, 1st Lt. William Alter, and Sgt. James Slape highlights the timeless criticality of the EOD mission and the enduring appreciation of their sacrifice by our military community.”

EOD from page 1 Air Force Chief of Staff, Gen. David Goldfein, provided a stimulating discourse that personified the crux of the EOD community, mission, their steadfast commitment to success and the infinite sacrifice of their families.

“We will never forget,” Goldfein said. “For those of us still serving, we have a sacred duty to continue saying their names ... 1st Lt. William Alter, Sgt. James Slape, Sgt. Joseph Collette. Because we are all part of a joint warfighting team: We train together, we fight together, we bleed together and we mourn together. For our EOD operators always remember the significance of this memorial.

It is much more than names etched on a wall. It is where the lines of history and heroism intersect.”

NAVSCOLEOD’s Service Detachment commanders and senior enlisted placed a wreath next to their respective service’s cenotaph on the EOD Memorial while a fellow service member read the names of fallen EOD heroes aloud, concluding with the phrase “We Remember.” The respective service senior general then presented a flag, previously flown over the EOD Memorial, to each of the families.

“We Remember” signifies the

very essence and ethos of EOD technicians to never forget the extraordinary efforts of our EOD brothers and sisters who paid the ultimate sacrifice.

The EOD badge and its three levels (basic, senior and master) became the standard for all services in the 1950s. To this day, the EOD badge remains the only badge in the military identical for all branches of service.

This unique distinction reflects the vital role of NAVSCOLEOD in training joint EOD warriors.

Hurricane from page 1 hurricane season begins, reminding that things such as food and water – enough for each person in the household for at least three days – prescription medication, radios, batteries and mobile phone chargers can become critical items during an ongoing natural disaster.

He also recommended ensuring vehicles remain filled with gasoline, and individuals have cash available, and to ensure maintaining a supply of pet food.

He added that upon return from an evacuation, individuals should ensure they bring perishables such as milk and eggs and maintain cash, as Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) might not be functioning.

Other best practices Fenters stressed include insuring individual auto and home insurance policies are current, and preparing homes and automobiles according to insurance policies. He also said that making sure you have your insurance policies on hand in the event of an evacuation could help during the recovery and claims process in the event a storm damages personal property. NAS Pensacola community members renting a house or apartment should consider the fact that although their landlord has insurance, their personal belongings might not be covered, but added that rental insurance is relatively inexpensive.

“At the EOD Memorial ceremony, we honor and solemnly remember warriors that have given the greatest sacrifice in the defense of our great democracy,” Capt. Charles Andrews, NAVSCOLEOD commanding officer said. “We aspire to peace and would prefer to not have any names on the memorial wall but realize that peace must be fought for and defended. I am honored to memorialize these warriors so that we always remember.

Today’s ceremony makes me

out the storm, Fenters stressed that strengthening one’s home can help protect from potential strong winds.

Shopping for approved window coverings, collecting loose outdoor items such as patio furniture and trimming trees can help minimize potential risks to a home or other structure.

“NAS Pensacola community members are historically generous when helping out neighbors,” Fenters said. “There are always individuals in our community needing assistance before and after a hurricane – particularly elderly community members – and the NAS Pensacola community here has always helped those individuals (retirees) who are a part of our community who might need some additional assistance. Make sure you check on your neighbors.”

While storms might not seem an issue, the impact can be sudden and having an outline or plan of actions to take before, during and after a natural disaster is important for individuals living in an area all too familiar with the effects a storm can bring.

“The time to prepare for a hurricane is right now,” he said. “Although we hope something like this doesn’t happen, it’s imperative for you and your family to plan now.

Write your plan out, because when a storm has the potential to make landfall near Pensacola, the chances of getting supplies, medicine and other needed items are not particularly in your favor.”

Naval Air Station, Pensacola, Fla.: A Bicentennial Defense Community Commanding Officer – Capt. Timothy Kinsella

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 biplane 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.

The image on the right side is one of the

Navy’s most modern fighter aircraft, the F/A18 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. The name “Gosport” was derived from Gosport, England (originally God’s Port), where the voice tube was invented.

On April 15, 2014, the Okaloosa County Board of Commissioners officially proclaimed the first Saturday in May as “EOD Day” in honor of the memorial ceremony.

This day represents a sacred time for the EOD community to reflect and remember the heroic actions of fallen EOD warriors. The EOD Memorial honors 341 EOD technicians who have died in the line of duty since 1942 – more than

POW @NASC from page 1 crash with the rest of the crew, he was captured and held as a POW by the North Vietnamese at the infamous “Hanoi Hilton” for more than seven years.

As Robinson began to detail his time as a POW, it did not fail to dawn on the aviation students in attendance the importance of his story. The students – all training to become aviators, flight officers, air crewman or rescue swimmers – realized the special risk their jobs would entail. The vast majority of the POWs in the Vietnam War were Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps aviators and flight officers.

“You all are the top one percent,” Robinson said. “We know we will go to SERE (Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape) School when we join aviation, but it’s much more real when we get a chance to hear from a guy who actually went through it.”

All aviators and flight officers are required to receive survival training, known as SERE. The future flyers listened carefully as their veteran predecessor described his fate.

“They paraded us around like a prize trophy because we were Americans,” Robinson said.

In a mix of solitary confinement, torture and cramped living conditions with dozens of fellow POWs, Robinson recounted the names and stories of the heroes he served alongside.

“If we survived, we must return with honor,” said Robinson.

He went on to describe the way the Americans would tap the walls to communicate with a secret code never broken by the North Vietnamese.

“It helped that the pilots were not good spellers,” Robinson joked. vilian personnel and their families aboard the Naval Air Station Pensacola, Saufley Field and Corry Station.

Staff members from all four services at NAVSCOLEOD, as well as members of the EOD Warrior Foundation, coordinated and executed preparations for the ceremony.

The EOD Memorial Foundation, established in 1969, merged with the Wounded EOD Warrior Foundation in March 2013 to form the EOD Warrior Foundation. The foundation serves and supports the joint service EOD community.

“This year we add three EOD warriors to the EOD Memorial Wall, a memorial that ensures fallen EOD warriors who have made the ultimate sacrifice will never be forgotten,” Nicole Motsek, executive director, EOD Warrior Foundation said. “The warriors added today, and the 338 before them are heroes. It is an honor and privilege to preserve their legacy and to provide ongoing support to their families.”

NAVSCOLEOD, located onboard Eglin Air Force Base, provides high-risk, specialized, basic and advanced EOD training to U.S. and partner nation militaries and selected U.S. government personnel each year.

For the Americans condemned to deal with their imprisonment in solitary confinement, the tap code communication became a vital lifeblood in maintaining morale.

“Importantly, this was the way to know who they were so we could keep account and to all get out together,” Robinson said.

Robinson recounted that every new guy who showed up would come in saying we would all be home by Christmas.

But the war did not end at Christmas.

The war did not end until the Paris Peace Accords of 1973, when 591 American POWs were returned during Operation Homecoming. The battle did not end there, however, as Robinson described the poor treatment towards his fellow Vietnam veterans who were not POWs. Robinson detailed how POWs were treated with the respect that was denied to other Vietnam War veterans.

“We (POWs) came home to the full fanfare of victory. You might say we were treated with honor,” Robinson said. “My generation was unable to separate a war from the warrior, but in the present day we are able to.

The warrior honors his country with his or her service. The war is irrelevant.”

Ending his speech to the next generation of aviation, Robinson summarized his perspective of what happened along with what did not happen.

“Only one out of five air crewmen shot down over Southeast Asia survived, so I can truly say I am one of the luckiest men alive,” Robinson said.

During his visit to NASC, Robinson also participated as a guest of honor in an air crew graduation ceremony and received a command tour.

Vice chairman stresses realities of strategic nuclear deterrences

ernization is in the cards to ensure the reliability of the deterrent and to keep up with threats from nuclear powers. “Our indications and warning system is threatened by new classes of weapons that it wasn’t designed to detect,” Selva said.

“We have to address that.”

Parts of the delivery system for the nuclear triad were built the year the general was born, he noted, adding that those, too, need to be modernized.

There is not a lot of wiggle room in this process, he said. “The Ohio-class submarine will age out of the fleet as we bring in the Columbia-class submarine,” Selva said. “The B-52 will be nearly 90 years old when it goes to the boneyard.”

The Minuteman III missile was first deployed in 1973. Some of the equipment used to build nuclear devices dates to World War II’s Manhattan Project, Selva said, and that must be modernized. “We have to do all of it at the same time,” he added. The cost is estimated at about $320 billion over 23 years.

Americans must decide if this investment is worth the money, the general said.

“I would suggest to you it’s not only worth it, it’s a bargain for what it gives us,” he said. “Because without a safe, secure, reliable triad, our adversaries … could hold us at risk and therefore use nuclear blackmail to achieve an outcome in what otherwise would be an entirely conventional battlespace.

“If you don’t believe they’re thinking about it, just read the doctrine of our Russian competitors and our Chinese competition,” he continued. “Both espouse strategic attacks to achieve conventional effects. Both of them talk about attacking our homeland to cause us to demur in an overseas conflict. Both of them talk about taking away our ability to project power.”

By Jim Garamone Defense.gov

WASHINGTON – Americans need to understand the strategic reasoning behind the U.S. nuclear triad and what those capabilities mean to the nation and the world, the vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said.

Air Force Gen. Paul J. Selva spoke at a Strategic Deterrent Coalition symposium in Arlington, Va., last week.

Russian President Vladimir Putin attempted in a speech about a year ago to frighten the world with new classes and types of nuclear weapons Selva noted.

“He revealed the existence of a nuclearpowered cruise missile,” the vice chairman said. “He revealed the existence of a special type of ballistic missile that has the range to go southward and not northward, and – in his own words – in an effort to defeat the defenses of the United States.”

America’s backstop to these nuclear threats remains the nuclear triad of landbased missiles, manned bombers and submarine-launched missiles. The deployed nuclear forces would reply to any threat or use of nuclear weapons against the United States or its allies. “It’s the reason we have a robust triad,” the general said.

“It’s interesting to hear the debates about whether or not our triad is affordable,” Selva said. “That’s not a strategic conversation; that’s a tactical conversation. The strategic conversation is ‘What does the triad give us? What does the triad give us in a world where the only existential threat to the existence of the United States is the existence of nuclear weapons in the hands of our adversaries?’”

The conversations about the need for the triad have been muted for decades,

Air Force Gen. Paul J. Selva, vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, delivers a keynote speech during the Strategic Deterrent Coalition’s 2019 symposium in Arlington, Va., April 25. The Strategic Deterrent Coalition is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, communitybased organization formed to support the nuclear triad by providing educational information on the importance of maintaining a safe, secure and effective nuclear deterrent.

“overshadowed by good and righteous conversations about reducing the number of nuclear weapons, about reducing the uncertainty of nuclear weapons in the world,” the general said. Selva said he welcomes those conversations.

“But as a practitioner of the art of strategic deterrence, (...) my thesis is it’s way too early to have a conversation about a world with no nuclear weapons,” he added, “because the world we live in is the world we must survive in. And the world we live in is one of slow and deliberate proliferation of technologies that allow other countries to produce nuclear weapons.”

From 1945 to 1949, the United States was the only nation possessing nuclear weapons. The Soviet Union exploded its first one in 1949, followed by the United

Kingdom in 1952, France in 1960 and China in 1964. India exploded its first nuclear weapon in 1974, Pakistan did it in 1998, and North Korea exploded a device in 2006.

“That number grows – it doesn’t shrink – because nuclear physics is nuclear physics,” Selva said. “Knowledge is knowledge, and knowledge has been democratized by this thing we call the internet, and you can figure out how to build a nuclear weapon if you just go to the right website.”

The United States must maintain a credible, safe, secure nuclear arsenal “until we can negotiate a set of protocols globally that rid the world of nuclear weapons,” the vice chairman said. “That’s not an aspirational statement. That’s reality.”

For the United States, that means mod-

Navy offers 10 tips to ease household moves From NAVSUP Public Affairs

M

ECHANICSBURG, Pa. (NNS) – About half of all Navy household goods (HHG) moves occur between May 15 and Aug. 15, with late June/ early July being the busiest. To make this year’s moving season easier, the Navy is offering 10 tips members can use to ensure a smooth move.

“Anyone in the Navy planning a move this summer can greatly reduce the chances for encountering frustration before or during an upcoming move by planning ahead,” Naval Supply Systems Command Navy HHG Manager John Hilaman said. “Sailors and their families can use these 10 tips as a simple checklist to making sure all goes well.”

1. Bookmark key websites a. https://www.navsup.navy. mil/household The Navy HHG customer website contains information on basic entitlements, Defense Personal Property System (DPS) how-to guides, movement of boats, weight allowances, overseas country instructions, and more. b. www.move.mil This is where you will start your move application. New users can create a user I.D. and password. Make sure your contact information in DPS includes current email address, phone number, mailing address and delivery address. You may want to consider using your personal email and phone number so you can always be reached.

Find a user guide for this site at: https://www.navsup.navy.mil/ public/navsup/hhg/dps_guides. c. www.facebook.com/navy-

hhg You can also use FB Messenger. d. www.youtube.com/navyhhg e. www.pinterest.com/navyhhg 2. Start early and be flexible The high volume of moves during peak season drives a four-to-six-week lead time for scheduling moves. Schedule your move as soon as you get orders. Delay can cause difficulties in getting your shipment booked. Finally, be prepared to accept alternate dates and discuss options with your local counseling office.

3. Use online training to help you prepare If you have never moved or it’s been a while, you may want to attend one of the Navy HHG webinars. During a live webinar, you will have the opportunity to ask questions specific to your move. Webinar schedule and links to webinars can be found on www.navsup.navy. mil/household. Another option is to watch a pre-recorded webinar online at your convenience, https://www.navsup.navy.mil/ public/navsup/hhg/quick_links/ hhg_webinar_videos.

4. Gather supporting documents All supporting documents

Navy family members relax on their front lawn while movers deliver household goods to their new home. U. S. Navy file photo

are uploaded to DPS. Failure to upload required documents can delay your move. Be sure to include: a. Orders b. SIGNED DD Forms 1299 and 1797 (both required for all move requests except PPMs) c. Power of Attorney, if required. d. Dependent entry approval – required for certain overseas locations 5. Remember that your entitlement comes first Before the government either moves your items or you move yourself, there must first be an entitlement. A funded, valid order establishes entitlements. If there are no orders, there is no entitlement.

6. Ensure maximum reimbursement for your Personally Procured Move (PPM) To ensure maximum reimbursement for your PPM, you should create an application in DPS and receive signed documentation (DD 2278) from your local Personal Property Office.

Without the DD-2278, your reimbursement could be limited.

7. Know about pick-up and delivery After an application has been

awarded, you will receive an e-mail with the name and contact information for the Transportation Service Provider (TSP). The TSP will conduct a pre-move survey no later than three business days before your requested move date. The survey allows the TSP to establish a more realistic weight estimate, determine crew size needed for the job, plan on materials needed for packing, and plan on special equipment, if needed.

While on site for packing, the TSP may re-pack items packed in a plastic tote or original boxes. This is to allow the TSP to properly inventory items and ensure they are not damaged.

Delivery is arranged between the member and/or member agent and the assigned TSP. Understand that a service member or their designated agent must be at residence at all time during delivery.

8. Plan for your Professional Books, Paper and Equipment (PBP&E or pro gear) Every Sailor is authorized pro gear each time they move. Active duty members are limited to 2,000 pounds and spouses have a 500-pound limit. Key points: MUST separate pro gear from

struction and Technical Training School (NAVSCIATTS) students participate in a Patrol Craft Officer Riverine (PCOR) training exercise on John C. Stennis Space Center, Miss., April 29.

PCO-R, is an eight-week course of instruction designed to provide international students with the knowledge and skills to operate a riverine patrol craft. NAVSCIATTS is a Security Cooperation training command operating under U.S. Special Operations Command in support of Security Force Assistance and Geographic Combatant Commanders’ Theater Security Cooperation priorities.

other household items; MUST identify on inventory sheet by M-PRO for military member and S-PRO for spouse; spouse pro gear MUST be pre-approved PRIOR to pack-out date and pro gear is weighed separately. The weight of pro gear does not count against overall weight shipped. If pro gear is not claimed during counseling, it cannot be claimed after the fact to reduce the weight of the shipment when a Sailor exceeds his or her maximum entitlement. List of what is and is not pro gear can be found at: https://www.navsup.navy.mil/ public/navsup/hhg/pov/professional_gear.

9. Understand ahead of time the process for submitting a claim for loss or damages It’s important to know the process for submitting a claim in the unlikely event it is necessary. Submitting a claim is a two-part process, which includes (1) notification of loss/ damage report; and (2) the claim itself. The claim is settled directly with the assigned TSP. If the member is unable to settle with the TSP, the member can transfer all or part of the claim to the Military Claims Office.

10. Tell us about your experience: The customer satisfaction survey is a vital part of the move process and ensures that only quality carriers are contracted to ship service members’ household goods.

“Service members should also note the Navy HHG e-mail address householdgoods@navy. mil and the NAVY HHG Customer Contact Center (HHGCCC) at 855-HHG-MOVE (855-444-6683),” Hilaman said.

“I sincerely wish all of our members a smooth move and encourage them to use all resources available to ensure their next move goes well,” he added.

event, including anti-submarine, surface, and air warfare.

Complex live-fire events included torpedo countermeasure exercises and gunnery exercises.

“The Montgomery Blue team honed their skills during the complex exercise and without a doubt, their watchstander proficiency was enhanced,” Cmdr. Edward A. Rosso, Montgomery’s commanding officer, said. “The SWMDC Warfare Tactics Instructors provided excellent training, and we are more ready than ever to answer our nation’s call.”

SMWDC-based mentors, warfare tactics instructors (WTIs), and technical community experts planned the events, briefed shipboard teams, and embarked to train and mentor watch teams

throughout the duration of the advanced tactical training. Training evolutions used a formalized plan, brief, execute, debrief (PBED) process.

LCS vessels are high-speed, agile, shallow draft, missionfocused surface combatants designed for operations in the littoral environment, yet fully capable of open ocean operations. As part of the surface fleet, LCS has the ability to counter and outpace evolving threats independently or within a network of surface combatants. Paired with advanced sonar and mine hunting capabilities, LCS provides a major contribution, as well as a more diverse set of options to commanders, across the spectrum of operations.

or the first time in the littoral combat ship’s class history, Naval Surface and Mine Warfighting Development Center (SMWDC) conducted Surface Warfare Advanced Tactical Training in the U.S. 3rd Fleet area or operation (AOR).

The training, which concluded April 22, provided the crew of the Independenceclass USS Montgomery (LCS 8) advanced level training to increase their tactical proficiency, lethality and interoperability.

“SWATT is the culmination of a phased training approach which prepares our ships and our Sailors to win the fight,” Capt. Matthew McGonigle, commander, Littoral Combat Ship Squadron ONE, said.

“The Montgomery crew dem-

onstrated that they are ready, capable and committed to meet the mission the Navy and our nation requires of them.”

Montgomery conducted several training exercises during the multi-day training

Her job sometimes entails sick call for naval aviators and students, but her primary focus is on prelim or eye and audio exams. Kyemtore works closely with retirees and active duty family members. He sees patients daily to listen to their needs, and to direct them if they need minor surgeries.

“My favorite aspect is my patients – listening and working with them to help them long term,” Kyemtore said. “When I see my patients doing better, it makes me hap-

Both Robinson and Kyemtore are assigned to the Branch Health Clinic. Ibanez and Solis are assigned to the base’s police force.

Ibanez serves as a patrolman but is in the process of becoming a watch commander, a position previously held by Solis. Solis has already departed from Whiting Field and is, according to Ibanez, stationed in Bahrain.

His service as watch commander set the template for Ibanez, and they both worked closely together.

Robinson has been an

Established to allow command triads to recognize and advance deserving Sailors regardless of their exams, the MAP was recently expanded to include two seasons. The first season takes place from March 1 to April 30, and the second will be Sept. 1 to Oct. 31. Both seasons are expected to account for approximately 20 percent of all E-4 through E-6 advancements for 2019.

Sailors who advanced in season one through the MAP are ineligible

Navy salutes Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month

By John R. Desselle Naval History and Heritage Command, Communication and Outreach Division

A

sian American and Pacific Islander Sailors, past and present, contribute to the strength of our force and the defense of the nation. May, designated as Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, is an opportunity for us to celebrate their contributions and the diversity within the Navy.

Below are a few notable and prominent Sailors within the Asian American and Pacific Islander community and the impact they made to naval history. We are very grateful and proud of all our Asian and Pacific Islanders who served and still serve in the U.S. Navy.

• Adm. Gordon Pai’ea Chung-Hoon became the first Asian American, U.S. citizen, to graduate from the academy on May 1934. He served during World War II and was the first Asian American flag officer. He is a recipient of the Navy Cross and Silver Star for extraordinary heroism as commanding officer of USS Sigsbee from May 1944 to October 1945. He served 25 years in the U.S. Navy and retired as an admiral.

Adm. Gordon Pai’ea Chung-Hoon died July 24, 1979 at aged 68.

• Lt. Susan Ahn Cuddy joined the Navy in 1942 after Japan bombed Pearl Harbor. She was the first Asian-American woman to join the U.S. Navy and became the first female to operate flex-

ible-mount or turret-mounted machine guns on an aircraft in the Navy. She left the Navy in 1946 at the rank of lieutenant. Even in her elder years, Cuddy remained active, speaking at Navy functions and Korean American community events. She died at her home June 24, 2015 at age 100 in Northridge, Calif.

• Navy Capt. Sunita Lyn “Suni” Williams is an American astronaut and U.S. Navy officer of Indian-Slovenian descent. She holds the records for total spacewalks by a woman (seven) and most spacewalk time for a woman (50 hours, 40 minutes). Williams was assigned to the International Space Station as a member of Expedition 14 and Expedition 15. In 2012, she served as a flight engineer on Expedition 32 and then commander of Expedition 33.

• Rear Adm. Ming Chang served 34 years in the U.S. Navy and became the first naturalized Asian American

naval officer to reach flag rank in the United States military. He is the recipient of the Legion of Merit (Combat V) and Bronze Star (Combat V) medals.

When Chang left the Navy, he became vice president and corporate director for the Pacific region at Raytheon International and then president of MEC International, LLC.

• Rear Adm. Connie Mariano was not only the first Filipino-American to become a rear admiral in the U.S. Navy, she also was the first female director of the White House Medical Unit, as well as the first military woman to be appointed as the White House Physician.

Dr. Mariano retired from the Navy in June 2001 after 24 years.

Naval Education and Training Command announces staff civilians, Sailor of the Quarter From Naval Education and Training Command Public Affairs

N

aval Education and Training Command (NETC) announced its Sailor of the Quarter (SoQ) for the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 and its junior and senior Civilians of the Quarter (CoQ) for the first quarter of calendar year 2019 at an awards ceremony April 30.

CE1 Deanna Diede was recognized as the SoQ, Benjamin Switzer as the senior CoQ and Carlos Roebuck as the junior CoQ. Diede, a Winner, S.D., native, has served as the Seabee and special warfare accession detailer at NETC’s Supply Chain Operations Division (N3) since August 2018.

“I am humbled to be a part of such a diverse workforce that provides a varying degree of unique challenges and opportunities,” Diede said. “I am reminded of this fact every time I look at my peers, who continuously inspire me with their drive and camaraderie.”

According to Kent Miller, NETC’s N3 director, Diede exceeds all expectations and continually demonstrates performance well above her pay grade.

“Diede’s commitment to excellence has been crucial to the success of not only N3, but to

NETC,” Miller said. “She is a dynamic and compassionate Sailor who is sincerely dedicated to self-improvement and the personal and professional growth of her Sailors. Diede sets the example for others to emulate and her selection as SoQ is well deserved.”

Switzer, a Gulfport, Miss., native, has served as an information technology (IT) specialist in NETC’s IT division for 19 years.

“I am very honored and proud to be recognized for this reward,” Switzer said. “I only earned this award with the support of my co-workers. Without their support, I would not be able to do anything. I would like to thank them all for their hard work.”

According to Ray Delemos, CeTARS technical program manager, Switzer, as lead developer for both the Shared Authentication Service project and the redevelopment of the Navy

Benjamin Switzer

CE1 Deanna Diede

Carlos Roebuck

Training Quota Management Systems, has had a positive impact on both NETC and NETC N3.

“Ben was entrusted with leading the upgrade efforts for the Shared Authentication Service project which benefited the centralized CAC authentication application that is used by NETC applications that supports over one million transactions a month,” Delemos said. “In addition to this upgrade effort, Ben is also the lead developer for a team responsible for the reengineering of the Navy Training Quota Management System which support changes to the Mass Quota Updates process.

This upgrade enabled NETC N3 to deliberately update quota line values in bulk, reducing the number of hours required for data entry and allowing the production line analysts to perform higher level supply chain analy-

sis, and enabling the customer to efficiently manage recruiting.”

Roebuck, a Pensacola and retired Navy senior chief petty officer, has served as a task coordinator in NETC’s administrative support services for 18 months.

“I am truly humbled by this recognition,” Roebuck said. “It is a pleasure being in a position that provides the opportunity to work with and learn about all the NETC departments and commands throughout the enterprise.”

Roebuck managed more than 200 incoming and outgoing high-level tasks and command staff action requests for NETC and 21 subordinate commands.

“Carlos’ (Roebuck) extensive professional knowledge and ability to operate independently led to his junior civilian of the quarter nomination,” Jeffrey Williamson, NETC’s Support

Services manager said.

Several staff members were also presented awards for years of service. Willie Jones, a program analyst in the Fleet Integration Learning and Development division was cited for 40 years of service; Jeffrey Wells, a program analyst in the Logistics division was recognized for 30 years; and Keith Palmer, a property program manager in the Logistics division was cited for 10 years.

From the NETC Logistics division, Charles Bailey received the Navy Superior Civilian Service Award for his accomplishments throughout his career.

Off Duty

Pensacola’s first Children’s Business Fair

By Kaitlyn Peacock Gosport Staff Writer Not so long ago, a team of community leaders sat down and taught a group of 40 individuals what it’s like to run a business, market your product and interact with customers. Sounds like a normal workshop, but there was one little difference. Every single attendee was under the age 17.

The children participating in the workshop will be vendors at Pensacola’s first-ever Children’s Business Fair. The fair will be hosted at Bare Hand Collective May 18 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. During that time, these “kidpreneurs” will be offering a host of different products for purchase, including homeharvested honey, bath products, arts and crafts and the classic ice-cold lemonade.

Organizers of the fair started planning in January of this year, opening up applications for participating vendors in February. Within two weeks, all forty slots for the fair were filled. Kana Meece, the Pensacola Children’s Business Fair media relations and treasury chair, said she was amazed at the response to the fair. Along with filling up vendor slots, many business and community leaders stepped forward to serve as mentors for the children.

The overwhelmingly positive response to the fair signals a need in Pensacola that isn’t currently being met. As the city continues to see explosive growth, more and more locally-owned businesses are opening throughout the city. The influx of new

businesses acts as an inspirations to children and to parents, who were eager to sign up their children for this opportunity.

“I think Pensacola was ready,” Meece said. “The people in Pensacola were ready. They are ready to do something that is unique and very beneficial to the children. Many people are moving to Pensacola, including my family, and it would be great to have such opportunity for any family. Not only us, the founders, of course it started from we wanted our kids to experience it, but it’s nice for the whole family to experience it.”

Although the vendor application for the upcoming fair is closed, Meece said they are planning the second fair of the year, scheduled tentatively for December, will offer 80 vendor slots, double of this fair. This will give the opportunity to more children. Meece also said she plans to reach out to underprivileged children who may not have heard about the fair for them to participate in the upcoming event. If the fair is a success, she said she plans to do two more fairs the following year, giving as many opportunities to children as she possibly can.

The May 18 fair will be hosted at Bare Hand Collective, as well as the December fair, but Meece hopes to showcase many venues and markets around Pensacola as the Children’s Business Fair expands. Anyone is welcome to shop at the market.
