Navy Medicine: Updated Zika virus infection guidance From U.S. Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery Public Affairs

Navy Medicine released updated Zika Virus Infection guidance in NavAdmin 121/16, May 26, communicating current information, travel precautions and risk reduction measures to Navy and Marine Corps personnel. “The updated NavAdmin includes the latest Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations for the prevention of sexual transmission of Zika virus; it also highlights recommendations for couples who are considering conception,” said Cmdr. Alan Lam, deputy associate director, U.S. Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (BuMed) public health, emergency preparedness and response. The updated NavAdmin also directs installation commanders to implement the secretary of defense guidance to control Zika virus-transmitting mosquitoes at Navy installations and in housing areas. Installation commanding officers will en-

sure public health emergency officers and installation vector control staff coordinate their efforts with state and local counterparts. BuMed has instructed Navy Medicine providers to follow clinical guidelines issued by the CDC. In addition, Navy and Marine Corps Public Health Center issued an updated information sheet and trifold pamphlet on their public website for Navy and Marine Corps personnel. “Navy Medicine implements the latest CDC guidelines and supports installation vector surveillance and control efforts; however, each member of the Navy and Marine Corps family must also do their part to ensure they are protected from the Zika virus,” said Lam. Zika is a viral infection primarily spread by a bite from an infected mosquito. The virus is also spread by a mother to her fetus during pregnancy, through blood transfusion, and by a man infected See Zika on page 2

Gosport’s 2016 hurricane tracker inside Hurricane season began June 1 and runs through Nov. 30. In 2004, four major hurricanes struck the state of Florida. In 2005, Hurricane Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast region. The lesson to learn is not “if” a hurricane will strike, but “when.” Having a plan and preparing for a hurricane are the keys to survival before, during and after the storm. Develop your own hurricane plan. The time to plan is before a hurricane strikes. See pages 4-5 for Gosport’s hurricane tracking map, local emergency phone numbers and information.

Navy Voting Assistance Program makes voting easy By Lt. Kristin Hope Special contributor to Navy Installations Command Public Affairs

With all the 2016 election buzz, who you are voting for has probably crossed your mind and with that, you have probably wondered how to vote. Are you going to be deployed? Will you be at sea? Or maybe you and your family are stationed in a state that is different from where you are registered to vote? All of these are challenges Navy voters face, but a team of 2,000 voting assistance officers are here to help. It has been an exciting primary voting season so far. The voting assistance officers have attended workshops across the world to learn about how to better assist voters and common voting mistakes. Some of the most common mistakes we see are voters not signing their forms or not entering the correct addresses in the correct lines. While filling out voting forms, the block titled

“My Voting Residence Address” should always be the address of where you are registered to vote. It doesn’t matter if you no longer live there as long as you lived there when you first registered. The block titled “where to send my voting materials” is just that. Keep in mind where you are now versus where you will be this summer when ballots are sent out. If you are going on deployment in the very near future, you

Navy celebrates 2016 LGBT Pride Month From Chief of Naval Personnel Public Affairs

WASHINGTON (NNS) – The Navy joins the nation in recognizing Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month during the month of June. Established by Presidential Proclamation in 2000, LGBT Pride Month is held annually and recognizes the importance of diversity within our society as well as the many achievements of LGBT individuals. This year's theme is celebration, and calls Americans to eliminate prejudice and celebrate our diversity. “Americans have always worked to fulfill that exceptional promise made at our founding,” said Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus. “We have continually broken down artificial barriers to equal opportunity ... Our military forces have followed that same history and made themselves stronger and better and more effective because of it.” This June, the Navy recognizes LGBT service members and civilians for their dedicated service to the United States. “Diversity is a source of strength for the Navy, and is (a) key component to maintaining our highest state of readiness,” said a Navy spokesperson. “Diversity encompasses more than race and gender – we seek to include diversity of thought, background, language, culture and skills as well. Our force comes from a diverse populous, and we are simply better at what we do when we are more diverse. We want individuals to serve who are right for the job regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, and creed. Our goal is to ensure that the mission is carried out by the best-qualified and the most capable service members.” For service members, repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell in 2011 allowed gay, lesbian and bisexuals to serve openly in the United States armed forces. Currently, the Department of Defense is reviewing its transgender policy for the armed forces.

with Zika to his partner during sex. Typical symptoms include fever, conjunctivitis, muscle pain, rash, headache, and joint pain. Zika virus infection during pregnancy can cause microcephaly and other birth defects. Currently, Zika outbreaks are occurring in numerous Pacific Islands, the Caribbean and throughout Central America and South America. Navy and Marine Corps personnel are at risk when travelling to areas experiencing active Zika virus transmission. Infection risk is reduced by taking measures to avoid mosquito bites. No vaccine or drug is currently available to prevent Zika virus infection, and there is currently no specific antiviral treatment for the disease. The best way to prevent infection is to avoid mosquito bites while in areas of active transmission and avoid unprotected sex with a man who may have been exposed to Zika. Mosquitoes that spread Zika virus bite mostly during the daytime, but bites should be avoided day and night. The CDC recommends pregnant women postpone travel to any area with active Zika virus transmission. Pregnant women who do travel to one of these areas should talk to their Navy Medicine health care provider before traveling and strictly follow steps to avoid mosquito bites. The CDC also recommends that, for the duration of pregnancy, pregnant women avoid unprotected sex with any man who lives in or travels to an area of active Zika virus transmission. The following steps are recommended for those traveling to an area with ongoing Zika virus transmission: • Choose a hotel or lodging with air conditioning or with screens on windows and doors. • Sleep under a mosquito bed net if you are outside or in a room that is not well-screened. • Cover exposed skin by wearing long-sleeved shirts Health from page 1

COMMENTARY

NHP psychologist sees value in unique identity By Lt. Courtney Pollman-Turner Clinical psychologist, Naval Hospital Pensacola

followed a winding and enlightening road to become a clinical psychologist in the Navy. In 2003, I received a commission as a naval officer through the Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps program at George Washington University and reported a few months later bright-eyed, bushy-tailed and a little bewildered to my first command. I was assigned to the USS Ross (DDG 71) as a surface warfare officer (SWO). The days I spent aboard this ship earning my SWO pin were some of the most challenging I have ever experienced. I left the active-duty component some years later and eventually pursued an advanced degree in psychology so that I could continue to serve in a capacity that more closely suited my strengths and my passions. In 2015, I accepted a commission in the Medical Service Corps and bid farewell to my days as a SWO. Friends often tell me that my job as clinical psychologist sounds hard. I am faced daily with the struggles and stressors of other service members, veterans and their families.

I tell my friends, “I love my job,” and because of this, I just cannot think of my job as hard. What I do find challenging is sustaining myself and nourishing myself both physically and emotionally so that I can continue to be at my best with my patients. The practice of self-care is often something that does not come naturally to those of us in the military.

We devote so much of ourselves to the care and protection of others that sometimes we forget to take care of ourselves. This is something that I see my patients and co-workers struggle with as well. During my time as a SWO, I learned something about Sailors that took me years to realize – that each had a unique identity within the

working environment and outside of the Navy. They were boyfriends, brothers, fathers, friends, wives, mothers, sisters and daughters. They liked gun shows, mountain biking or cross-stitching; they were all very different people coming together for a common cause. Now, as a clinical psychologist, I understand that I am more than just a naval officer and I believe that this is the key to self-care, which is something I try and share with my patients. We would do well to remember that the Navy’s strength stems from its diversity, which is comprised of all of us as individuals. I now see how much more effective I could have been as a SWO if had I better cared for and respected the unique aspects of my identity, and I work daily to encourage others to give themselves the same respect. Just think how incredible the world would be if we all left work on time so that we could get in that evening workout or be home in time to share dinner with the family. I believe that the Navy is strong as a force because of the diversity we seek to promote, and we will only grow stronger if we respect that same diversity within ourselves. I’m Lt. Courtney Pollman-Turner. I am Navy Medicine, and I am also so much more, as are you. For more on Navy Medicine, go to http://navymedicine.navylive. dodlive.mil/.

The time for hurricane preparedness is now: #ItOnlyTakesOne #HurricaneStrong From http://www.nws.noaa.gov/com

It only takes one storm to change your life and community, as it did in 2004 for NAS Pensacola, with Hurricane Ivan’s strike on the Gulf Coast. “NOAA pointed out the forecast uncertainty today,” NASP Emergency Manager Burt Fenters said May 27. “This year could be problematic. Early storm development (such as Tropical Storm Bonnie) makes you wonder how this season will go.” Tropical cyclones are among nature’s most powerful and destructive phenomena. If you live in an area prone to tropical cyclones, you need to be prepared. Even areas well away from the coastline can be threatened by dangerous flooding, destructive winds and tornadoes from these storms. The National Hurricane Center issues watches, warnings, forecasts, and analyses of hazardous tropical weather. Hurricane hazards: The primary hazards from hurricanes are storm surge flooding, inland flooding from heavy rains, destructive winds, tornadoes, and high surf and rip currents. While hurricanes pose the greatest threat to life and property, tropical storms and depressions can also be devastating. Flooding from heavy rains can cause extensive damage and loss of life. For example, Tropical Storm Allison produced more than 40 inches of rain in the Houston area in 2001, causing about $5 billion in damage and taking the lives of 41 people. Storm surge has the potential to cause the largest loss of life in hurricanes. Since 1963,

storm surge has caused nearly half of the deaths in the United States in tropical cyclones. Water, not wind, has accounted for nearly 90 percent of all tropical cyclone deaths in the U.S. during that time. Storm surge is dangerous because a mere six inches of fast-moving flood water can knock over an adult. It takes only two feet of rushing water to carry away most vehicles – including large pickup trucks and SUVs. Tornadoes are also common with landfalling tropical systems. In recorded history, almost every tropical storm and hurricane that has come onshore in the U.S. has produced a tornado. These tornadoes most often occur in thunderstorms embedded in the storm’s rainbands, well away from the center of the hurricane. Strong winds of a tropical cyclone can also cause dangerous waves that pose a significant hazard to mariners and coastal residents and visitors. When the waves break along the coast, they can produce deadly rip currents – even at large distances from the storm. In 2008, despite the fact that Hurricane Bertha was more than a 1,000 miles offshore, the storm resulted in rip currents that killed three people along the New Jersey coast and required 1,500 lifeguard rescues in Ocean City, Md., during a one week period. The time to prepare is now: What should you do to prepare for a hurricane? Get a plan. The most important step is to identify your hurricane risk. Do you live in an evacuation zone? If so, you need to plan on where you and your family would ride out the storm if you are told to evacuate.

Most people only need to evacuate a few miles from the coast to avoid the dangers of storm surge. Find a friend or relative that lives outside the storm surge evacuation zone and have a plan to ride out the storm with them. You should also establish a family communications plan in case you are not together when you need to evacuate. Once a person understands their risk for hurricane impacts, an appropriate disaster safety plan should be developed to help ensure an individual’s and a family’s safety. A disaster safety plan is a comprehensive plan that identifies all of the steps a family needs to take before, during and after a disaster to ensure maximum personal safety and property protection. For a step-by-step guide on creating a family disaster plan see Florida’s “Get a Plan” guide. Citizens should also visit their State Emergency Management Agency websites for family disaster plan templates that may be more suited to a local area. Coastal residents should go to their local emergency managers for evacuation zone information. This information is typically available online. A county-by-county list of evacuation zone resources is available at: http://flash.org/ hurricane-season/ evacuation-zones/ Evacuation_Zone_Identification_Survey.pdf. Vital resources to help you prepare include: Hurricanes.gov, which provides critical hurricane advisories and marine forecasts. Weather.gov for the latest forecasts for your part of the country. And Ready.gov for additional preparedness information.

Gold Star widow recognized at HT-8 Story, photo by Jay Cope NAS Whiting Field Public Affairs Officer

46-year-old honor was finally bestowed May 18 to the widow of a Vietnam War helicopter pilot by members of the squadron with which he served. The Seawolves Association, a group of Vietnam-era helicopter pilots, presented the Gold Star to Carolyn Suhr, wife of the late Lt. j.g. Alfred Suhr, in the Helicopter Training Squadron Eight (HT-8) wardroom to honor the sacrifices of her and her family following his death in Vietnam. The Gold Star tradition originated during World War I when homes, businesses and schools hung white banners bordered in red with a blue star for each active service member and a gold star for each service member who passed away during the conflict. The tradition has continued through World War II, Korea and on through today, and has been formalized with the military presenting gold stars to the family members to pay tribute to their sacrifice and honor the fallen heroes. Bud Barnes, the Seawolves president, worked with the Commander Navy Region Southeast Gold Star Coordinator Rufus Bundrige to arrange for the presentation materials and coordinated the event to coincide with Carolyn’s trip to Pensacola to visit her daughters. He also asked for volunteers from the squadron to make the trip in honor of their shipmate’s memory. Former Navy Seawolf aviators Bill Barnes, Dick Catone, Richard Barr, John Mann, C. M. “Pete” Peterson and Mike Louy attended in addition to Barnes. After more than 45 years, Carolyn just appreciated that Suhr’s service was not forgotten. “It was thrilling that so many people cared enough to come out,” she said. “He loved flying and if he had to go, at least he

died doing what he loved. I miss him still, and I am so very thankful that people remember him.” The Seawolves, Helicopter Attack (Light) Squadron Three, is the most decorated squadron in naval aviation history, accumulating more than 120,000 sorties in support of the Vietnam War “Brown Water” Navy. The all-volunteer gunship squadron primarily provided close air support to riverine craft patroling the rivers of the Mekong Delta including Navy Special Warfare operations. The unit was also regularly called on to perform medical evacuations. The achievements came at a heavy cost though, with 44 members’ ultimate sacrifice memorialized on a bronze plaque at Patriot’s Point in Charleston, S.C. By the decommissioning of the unit in 1972, HAL-3 had earned Presidential Unit Citations for (Extraordinary Heroism), six Navy Unit Citations, two detachments received the Meritorious Unit Citations, the Vietnam Cross of Gallantry (MUC) Palm, the Vietnam Civil Action (Honor) with Palm, and several of the detachments received the Vietnam Presidential Unit Citation. Only a few of the members had met Suhr. Bud Barnes, though, arrived in theater with him but the two officers were sent to different detachments. Catone served in a collocated detachment at the time of the fatal mortar attack. However, all the attending Seawolves were familiar with the events surrounding Suhr’s loss. “I knew Al Suhr as we arrived in the squadron at Vung Tau the

same week in March 1969. We rode the same helicopter from Vung Tau to Dong Tam, where Al deplaned for Det-6. The only difference between a lot of us was two minutes or two inches,” Bud stated, emphasizing the dividing line between living and dying during the war. Suhr had only been with the squadron for two weeks when the Dong Tam Base, south of Saigon, where he was stationed, was attacked March 26, 1969. He had scrambled to his helicopter when the ammunition depot was struck with a mortar round. According to news reports, the attack blew up more than 500 tons of ammunition, and the resulting explosion damaged the aircraft and sent it crashing into the ground. A native of Mexico, Mo., and a graduate of the University of Missouri on a NROTC scholarship, Suhr was in naval cadet training in Pensacola when he first met Carolyn around Easter in 1966. They sang in the church choir together and were married Dec. 31, 1966 – just

three days after he earned his wings as a helicopter pilot. Carolyn gave birth to their twin daughters, Christine and Kimberly, less than a year before Suhr headed to Vietnam. Both daughters attended the ceremony as did one grandson, Robert, and one son-in-law, Freddy Powell. The event provided an opportunity for the family to meet other men like Suhr and to gain an understanding of the helicopter community. “It was very enlightening to hear so many different people talking about Al and the type of work that they all did (in Vietnam),” Carolyn said. “I felt like they (Kimberly and Christine) needed to speak to the people that knew him. I wanted them to know what his life was like, and I think they were very wowed.” HT-8 was selected as the site for the ceremony as all the Seawolves went through a portion of their helicopter training with the unit – although it was then located at Ellyson Field in Pensacola. Surrounded by squadron

members from HT-8, the family was welcomed by Capt. Mark Murray, Commodore, Training Air Wing Five, who discussed the importance of young, future pilots to understand the legacy they carry forward. “They (pilots) never know when they will be tested, but they will be. They have to rely on the training they learn here,” he stated. “It is therefore, important to remember our heritage and the people who came before. We can’t forget where we came from, so thank you for helping us to know one of our own.” As he prepared to present a flag, flown above the original UH-1B Seawolf Gunship atop the Pensacola Vietnam Memorial, and the pins on behalf of his squadron mates to Carolyn, retired Navy captain and former Training Air Wing Five commodore Dick Catone spoke about Suhr. “He was a hero. He was a patriot,” Catone stated. “That is the legacy he left behind. We just can’t thank you enough for sharing Al with us.”

Japan’s sword shattered at

By Mike O’Connor Gosport Associate Editor

Veterans, cryptographers and historians will take time this week to recall World War II’s Battle of Midway, considered to be the turning point in the battle for the Pacific. Midway. A catastrophic defeat for Japan, and a desperately needed victory for America, the Battle of Midway destroyed the illusion of Japanese invincibility and set the stage for Japan’s inevitable defeat. More than a halfway point, it was the turning point for World War II in the Pacific. A string of quick victories had led to overconfidence in the Japanese admiralty, a condition they later termed “victory disease.” Its forces had run up success after success in the Pacific after the Dec. 7 attack on United States forces at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The British battleship Prince of Wales and cruiser Repulse had been sunk on Dec. 10. Guam and Wake Island were seized, the Philippines invaded. Hong Kong and Singapore, too, fell into Japanese hands. By June 1942, Japan was in uncontested possession of the whole of Southeast Asia. Japanese Naval General Staff strategic planner Fleet Adm. Isoroku Yamamoto had sought to strike a decisive blow that would knock America out

of the Pacific once and for all. By attacking Midway Island, an atoll actually consisting of two islands, Sand and Eastern Island – and also in the Aleutian Islands off Alaska – he hoped to draw the American carrier forces into a trap. If Japanese fleet forces succeeded in destroying the U.S. Navy’s carrier forces, which were untouched by the attack at Pearl Harbor, Yamamoto reasoned Japan would have a free hand in the Pacific for years. Yamamoto was a wellknown gambler, but in his bid to take Midway he could not have known the deck was stacked against him. American cryptologic efforts, under the direction of Cmdr. Joseph Rochefort at Pearl Harbor’s Station Hypo, had made significant progress against the Japanese naval code then in use, called JN-25. The Navy’s radio intelligence organization was able to decipher an increasing percentage of enemy radio traffic and was beginning to offer clues to America’s military planners about Japan’s intentions.

In the months leading up to the Midway battle, the Station Hypo team was putting together a puzzle based on the information they knew. A large-scale Japanese naval offensive was in the making against a target they called “AF” but the focus of the attack was unclear. The staff of Adm. Chester Nimitz, commander of the U.S. fleet in the Pacific, needed to be sure. Rochefort’s team, along with Capt. Edwin Layton, Nimitz’s fleet intelligence officer, had a clue that “AF” might be Midway, so a ruse was developed. The radio operator at Midway was instructed to broadcast in the clear a message that the installation’s fresh water distillation plant had broken down and that fresh water was needed at once. Soon after, monitored Japanese radio traffic passed along a message, “AF is short of water.” With the enemy intentions in hand, Nimitz drew up his own plan of attack. Three American aircraft carriers, USS Enterprise (CV 6), USS Yorktown (CV 5) and USS Hornet (CV 8) faced four large

Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) carriers – Akagi, Kaga, Hiryu and Soryu at Midway. Accompanying the IJN carriers were no less than seven Japanese battleships; the Americans had none at Midway. And supporting the powerful IJN fleet were about 150 supporting ships of various kinds; the United States had about 50. The date of the intended offensive was known – June 3. Though American naval forces were far less numerous than the opposing force, Nimitz was able to position his strength to his best advantage. Patrols made contact and on June 4, in the space of a few history-changing minutes, three Japanese carriers were hit and left ablaze by American dive bombers.

Gosling Games Color Me ‘Shells’

Later that day the fourth Japanese carrier was located, hit and later sunk. Though Yorktown was lost – bombed, then torpedoed and sunk by a Japanese submarine – the damage to the Japanese fleet was thorough. Four of the six Japanese carriers which had attacked Pearl Harbor were lost, along with a cruiser, 256 aircraft and 3,057 personnel. American losses in addition to Yorktown were one destroyer, 145 aircraft and 307 personnel. The battle was won due to a combination of factors in which courage, skill, fortune and timing all played a part, but the value of the naval intelligence which indicated Japanese intentions is undeniable. The victory was a

needed shot in the arm to an anxious America at war. Before the Battle of Midway, Japanese military power in the Pacific did nothing but advance. After Midway, they did nothing but retreat. In the words of author and historian Walter Lord, the Americans at Midway “had no right to win. Yet they did, and in doing so they changed the course of the war. More than that, they entered the name ‘Midway’ into that small list that inspires men by example – like Marathon, the Armada, the Marne. Even against the greatest of odds, there’s something in the human spirit – a magic blend of skill, faith and valor – that can lift men from certain defeat to incredible victory.”

CNATT Marine recognized by Marine Corps Aviation Association From Center for Naval Aviation Technical Training Public Affairs

Center for Naval Aviation Technical Training (CNATT) Marine was recognized by the Marine Corps Aviation Association (MCAA) during an awards ceremony May 20 in New Bern, N.C. CNATT Technical Support Directorate F35 Integrated Product Team Lead, Marine Corps Staff Sgt. Scott Colagrossi II received the Michael A. Hough Acquisition Award. Marine Corps Commandant Gen. Robert Neller presented the award at the annual MCAA awards banquet. An Escalon, Calif., native, Colagrossi said receiving the award showcases the teamwork he feels underscores the sense of community aviation maintainers employ. “The Marines and Sailors at CNATT are always working together to improve our methods of ensuring we’re deliv-

ering the right training at the right time to the right Sailors and Marines,” he said. “The CNATT family excels at training, and awards such as this are the result of a team effort, and I couldn’t be prouder of my command.” Although a fixed wing aircraft mechanic (6217 Military Occupation Specialty), Colagrossi currently serves as an integral part of CNATT’s F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program. He played a key factor in the acquisition of a $40 million contract for the F-35 school house trainers at Center for Naval Aviation Technical Training Unit (CNATT) Detachment

Film honors children who lost dads in Vietnam Story, photo from WSRE

Some 20,000 American boys and girls lost their fathers during the Vietnam War. In a new documentary film produced by WSRE, several of these Gold Star children, now adult men and women, share their stories which serve as powerful testimonies about the true cost of war. WSRE will premiere “They Were Our Fathers” with a special Father’s Day broadcast at 7 p.m. June 19. The Gold Star designation is given to family members who have lost loved ones in United States military service during wartime. Every five years on

Father’s Day, members of Sons and Daughters in Touch – a group formed in 1990 to locate, unite and support Gold Star children who lost their fathers serving in the Vietnam War – gather at the nation’s capital to honor their parents, reflect on their common grief and support one another. Under the direction of executive producer Jill Hubbs, a WSRE production crew traveled to Washington, D.C., last June to document the gathering and record personal accounts. The film is narrated in first person by Hubbs, whose father was reported as missing in action during his second

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.
