Naval Hospital Pensacola (NHP) was recently named a 2012 “Top Performer on Key Quality Measures” by The Joint Commission, the leading accreditor of health care organizations in the United States.

This was the first time a naval hospital was named as a Top Performer by The Joint Commission.

“It is an honor to be recognized by The Joint Commission as a top performer,” said Cmdr.

Marnie Buchanan, special assistant, NHP Quality Management. “It is a true reflection of NHP’s dedication to our patients and high quality health care.”

Started in 2011, The Joint Commission’s Top Performer on Key Quality Measures program recognizes accredited hospitals that attain ex-

cellence on accountability measure performance.

The program is based on data reported about evidence-based care processes for certain conditions, including heart attack, heart failure, pneumonia, surgical care, children’s asthma, inpatient psychiatric services, stroke, venous thromboembolism and immunization.

Naval Hospital Pensacola was recognized for its application of best practices for surgical care and venous thromboembolism (VTE), which is a blood clot that forms within a vein.

To be named as a top performer, NHP had to meet specific eligibility criteria established by The Joint Commission and meet or exceed specific reportable standards for surgical care and VTE. A couple of examples include prescribing

“For the last eight years, I have been wearing the chief’s uniform and I have learned a lot; to my fellow chiefs, thanks,” said Howard. “Sometimes it takes others seeing something in you that you can’t see. Listen to them, give them a chance, you may benefit. Leadership is about serving others and leading them to their personal success, as well as thanking those who help you. We all need to appreciate those who have our backs.”

Howard’s family attached the accoutrements of an officer to his uniform. His wife Vanisha and his children, Tierra and Tyson, applied the shoulder boards and his stepfather, Glenn Holden, placed the

NETC gets into the Halloween spirit Story by Ens. Riley Cornett and Ens. Shereka Riley NETC PAO

The Welfare and Recreation (W&R) committee at Naval Education and Training Command (NETC) helped employees get into the Halloween spirit Oct. 31 with festivities that included a haunted basement, hall decorating and costume contests and a luncheon.

“The NETC headquarters Halloween social is put on annually to provide a morale boost for everyone,” said Lacey Rose, chairperson of the NETC W&R committee. “This year the hallway decorating contest was added to the mix and we brought back the haunted basement, something we hadn’t done in more than 10 years.”

“The NETC building used to be a hospital, and the basement was the morgue,” added Rose. “Stories circulating about the basement being haunted added authenticity to this event.”

Witches, a ninja, a bandaged man and a sleeping vampire roamed the basement, bringing fright and laughter to each employee. Joining the staffers who braved the haunted basement was Cmdr. Don

Kobiec, commanding officer of the NETC Headquarters Flag Unit.

“You all did an absolutely bang-up job,” Kobiec said as he exited the basement. “This is a hard-working staff doing important work supporting the training that enables fleet readiness. Taking a little time to enjoy life and have some fun helps build camaraderie.”

Judges for the hallway decorating contest used fright factor, creativity and level of effort as their criteria to determine the

winner.

“The hallway decorating contest was close – The Information and Technology hallway was scary and creative, and the Human Resources hallway was very creative and humorous,” said Richard James, NETC executive director and chief judge.

“The Resources, Requirements and Assessment hallway was judged the winner due to the creativity and great involvement and participation by their staff. The Halloween activities gave everyone a

chance to relax and have fun during lunch time, especially after catching up with work following the shutdown.”

During lunch, NETC Commanding Officer Rear Adm. Don Quinn judged the costume contest with entrants ranging from witches to a group with a “rock, paper, scissors” theme. “I have never been in a place with a large group of civilian employees with such spirit,” said Quinn.

NETC’s mission is to transform civilians into highly skilled, combat-ready warfighters, and enable their career-long growth and development. Comprised of more than 230 commands and units around the world, the training domain provides individual skills training, as well as leadership and other training to every Sailor in the Navy, as well as supporting training needs for the other U.S. armed services and selected international students from more than 150 nations.

Chassin, president and chief executive officer of The Joint Commission. “We have much to celebrate this year. Nearly half of our accredited hospitals have attained or nearly attained the Top Performer distinction. This truly shows that we are approaching a tipping point in hospital quality performance that will directly contribute to better health outcomes for patients.”

Naval Hospital Pensacola was one of 1,099 hospitals in the U.S. to earn this distinction, and there are more than 5,700 registered hospitals in the United States according to www.aha.org.

“We understand that what matters most to our patients at Naval Hospital Pensacola is safe, effective care,” said Capt. Maureen Padden, NHP commanding officer.

“That’s why Naval Hospital Pensacola has made a commitment to accreditation and to positive patient outcomes through patient-centered care processes. Naval Hospital Pensacola is proud to receive the distinction of being a Joint Commission Top Performer on Key Quality Measures.”

Cmdr. Tyler Frye, NATTC Mechanical Training Department officer in charge, presided over the ceremony.

“Howard has been a great leader and instructor in NATTC’s Aviation Maintenance Administrationman (AZ) ‘C’-school. He leaves big shoes to fill here at NATTC, and I need the best AZs from the fleet coming here to NATTC to take his place and instruct,” said Frye. “I know that Howard will continue to do great things in his new job at Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron (VAW) 126.”

From NATTC, Howard will attend Limited Duty Officer/Chief Warrant Officer Indoctrination School in Newport, R.I., before proceeding to his new assignment as squadron material control officer.

NATTC graduates approximately 15,000 Navy and Marine students each year. The largest part of the student body is comprised of enlisted personnel attending “A” schools designed to provide them with the knowledge and skill levels required to perform as technicians at the apprentice level.

Advanced schools provide higher level technical knowledge for senior petty officers and specialty schools offer specific skills not particular to any one rating, such as airman apprentice training, maintenance, personal financial management and shipboard aircraft firefighting.

NATTC also conducts technical training for officers in aviation fuels, carrier air traffic control center operations, aircraft launch and recovery equipment, shipboard aircraft fire fighting and amphibious air traffic control center operations.

White The Gosport nameplate pays homage to the 100th anniversary of naval aviation in 2011: the Centennial of Naval Aviation, or CONA. The image on the left side of the nameplate depicts Eugene Ely taking off in a Curtiss pusher bi-plane from the USS Pennsylvania Jan. 18, 1911.

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

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

Established in 1921 as the Air Station News, the name Gosport was adopted in 1936. A gosport was a voice tube used by flight instructors in the early days of naval aviation to give instructions and directions to their students. The name “Gosport” was derived from Gosport, England (originally God’s Port), where the voice tube was invented.

Let’s call this story the ‘Old Man and the Degree’

By Lisa Smith Molinari Military Spouse Columnist

About an hour into the trip, I blew a royal gasket.

“If you think for one cottonpicking minute that I’m just here to play chauffeur while you visit these colleges, you'd better think again,” I blared at my teenage son from the driver’s seat as our car chugged down the Massachusetts Turnpike.

I knew our weekend trip to visit two colleges in upstate New York was one of those ephemeral opportunities for me to bond with my son, and I had planned to make the best of it.

Problem is, I forgot that he is a teenager.

Ever well intentioned, I peppered my son with friendly questions about his interests, friends and school, in hopes that one of my probes would ignite an in-depth mother-son conversation to pass the time.

However, my inquiries were met with typical resistance, eliciting only grunts, one-word answers, and dreaded eye-rolls.

I just couldn’t take it anymore, and snapped.

During my cathartic rant, I explained to my son that the college trip was an important step in him becoming an independent person, a responsible

He hated that word, so I strategically ended with it, and

fell silent.

A few miles later, my son asked me a question. Not “are we there yet?” or “when are you going to buy me dinner?” but a well-planned dialogue starter. We conversed for a few fleeting minutes, before he fell sound asleep.

Three hours later, he awoke to our GPS announcing, “You have arrived at your destination.”

I quelled the awkwardness of sharing a hotel room with my 18-year-old son by ordering pizza and resisting the urge to remind him to brush his teeth.

Surprisingly soon after his three-hour car nap, my son sprawled on his bed in sweatpants and headphones and dropped off to sleep for the night.

Knowing that the days of seeing my children sleep would soon be over, I lingered a minute or two before turning out the light, watching his chest heave and his eyelids twitch.

In the morning, we found ourselves following a bubbly backward-walking female tour guide along slanted walkways, between ivy-covered academic buildings, and through student unions. The campus looked beautiful in the autumnal morning light, but I was watching my son for hints of reaction. I

knew that, if I asked him what he thought of the school, he would give me the same halfgrunted response every time: “N’good.”

Despite my warning, my son wolfed down a meatball sub for lunch in the car on our way to the next college. Once in the lobby of the admissions building, I showed him to the restroom so he could blot the red sauce stains off of his tie, without saying, “I told you so.”

After the tour, we had a scheduled meeting with a professor, to discuss the requirements of the computer science degree. His biography indicated that he had done extensive research in social networks; so we were surprised to be met by a sweet old Russian gentleman with white hair and a mild palsy in his left hand.

He spoke softly, pausing to emit an almost imperceptible gasp, before continuing. “You must use this time in your life .... (gasp) .... to become a man,” the old professor whispered across his cluttered desk to my son.

Still splotched with signs of

lunch, my son listened intently, unable to hide his utter admiration for this master in computer science. With eager eyes, my son asked questions about programming languages, algorithms and data structures. I sat, dumbfounded, while the old professor and my son built a delightful rapport. Forty-five minutes later, they exchanged wide grins and sincere handshakes, promising to keep in touch.

On the ride home, while my son slept soundly in the seat beside me, I thought about the old professor’s “you’re a man now” advice.

My husband and I had told our son the same thing so many times.

Why doesn’t he listen to us?

An exit or two later, I recollected that, during the meeting with the old professor, I saw my son successfully communicate his intentions, ask mature questions about the degree, and show genuine respect like an intelligent adult.

I glanced over at my splotched, grunting, stubborn little man and realized, “He listened all right.”

Blue Angels establish bone marrow registry Team members first in line to sign up for DoD donor program Story, photo

by MC1(EXW) Terrence Siren Blue Angels Public Affairs office

The U.S. Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron, the Blue Angels, hosted a bone marrow drive for team members at the squadron’s hangar Oct. 31.

The drive was organized in cooperation with the C.W. Bill Young Department of Defense Marrow Donor Program.

The statistics published by the Institute of Justice on blood disease-related diagnoses in America within the past two years are of note. About 130,000 Americans are diagnosed with serious blood diseases and blood cancers such as leukemia each year. As many as 7,500 Americans are afflicted by these blood diseases and, at any given time, are actively searching national registries for a donor. And 1,000 Americans die each year due to the inability to find a matching donor.

Members of the Blue Angels, aimed to answer the call to save lives and find donors by hosting the bone marrow drive.

The DoD program, which organizes donor drives as part of the larger National Marrow Donor Program, is a donor management initiative providing support to military personnel and families who volunteer to donate marrow or peripheral blood stem cell transplants for patients with leukemia, aplastic anemia or other fatal blood dis-

eases.

The squadron’s first drive in August marked the Blue Angels facility as the only Department of Defense marrow donor registry facility in Northwest Florida.

“We previously didn’t have any local facilities to get registered,” said HM1 Benjamin Hernandez, the aviation medicine supervisor for the Blue Angels. “The next closest facility is located in Jacksonville, Fla.” Blue Angels Lt. Cmdr. Mark DeBuse, Blue Angels flight surgeon, said having a donor registry facility in Pensacola has many advantages, not the least of which is the ability to expand the size of the overall DoD registry.

“Just about every aviationsourced rating and military occupational specialty (MOS) for enlisted personnel and student Navy and Marine Corps avia-

tors come through Pensacola when they go through the Naval Air Technical Training Center,” DeBuse said. “So, by having the program here on this base, it helps us get many more donors out into the fleet.”

Since the National Marrow Donor Program was created in 1986, more than six million Americans, 400,000 of whom have been service members, have registered as donors, according to the C.W. Bill Young DoD Marrow Donor Program website.

The C.W. Bill Young DoD Marrow Donor Program was created to take advantage of not only the sort of cultural diversity that is needed to find the right donors for the right patients, but also because service members are the right target demographic.

“The DoD tends to have a large group that are very qualified for the bone marrow pro-

gram,” said Hernandez. “We want donors to be between the ages of 18 and 60 and in good health. That is pretty much the entire make up of our military.”

“When military members register for the bone marrow program, we have the resources of the DoD,” said Eddie Medina, senior recruiter for the DoD Marrow Donor Program. “We can find people through the DoD locator and, also, we have access to the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS). So, we know where service members are and we know the protocol to follow in order to get them, when they become a possible match, to come to Washington to give a donation of either bone marrow or stem cells.”

A few members of the Blue Angels team have personal knowledge of the kind of effect donor registration can have.

Hernandez and Blue Angels right wing pilot Lt. Cmdr. John Hiltz are both previous donors.

AD1 Sergio Aguilar has been a registered donor since 2003, and Marine Staff Sgt. Josh Bryant was found as a potential match for donation this month. Hiltz was found as the best candidate for a peripheral stem cell donation in 2006, while Aguilar and Hernandez were good matches for patients in need of a bone marrow transplant in 2006 and 2009, respectively.

Donating meant all would be temporarily removed from flight status or duty responsibilities after their procedures: Hiltz, a new pilot at the time, was medically grounded for 45 days; Hernandez was medically grounded for 30 days; Aguilar,

who was not on flight status, said he was back to work the following Monday. All received full support from their commanding officers.

“I would tell people (who are thinking about registering and donating) that, the procedure doesn’t hurt that much,” said Aguilar. “Knowing you saved a life feels good.”

But first you have to register, which is an easy process, Hitz said.

“It’s literally just a cotton swab to the cheek, (writing down) some basic information and you’re on the registry,” he said.

While the Oct. 31 drive was open to only team members, Hernandez plans to organize future drives with other units based at NAS Pensacola, NASP Corry Station and other nearby bases and including active-duty, reserve, DoD civilian employees, retirees and all dependents.

“Now that we’ve established our program here, I’d like to do base-wide drives at least once a quarter,” Hernandez said. “We are also a walk-in facility, so any qualifying volunteer can call us and, within our working hours, can come over to my office and register.”

For more information on registering as a DoD donor in the Pensacola area, call the Blue Angels Aviation Medicine Office at 452-7469.

County, NASWF partner to purchase land easements surrounding airfields

By Ens. Emily Hegarty NASWF PAO

A

$1 million effort came to fruition just before the end of the 2013 fiscal year as Naval Air Station Whiting Field, in a partnership with Santa Rosa County, purchased easements for 492 acres of land in areas bordering the perimeter of Whiting Field.

This is the latest purchase in a project that has exceeded five years and $13 million to ensure the future success of air operations at Whiting Field and its outlying fields.

The move is funded in part by the Readiness Environmental Protection Integration (REPI) program, a Department of Defensewide effort aimed at promoting “land conservation solutions to benefit military readiness, neighboring communities, and the environment,” according to the program’s website.

In addition to REPI, Whiting Field has been working closely with Florida Forever, a statewide public land trust, and Santa Rosa County to purchase strategic land easements that would otherwise pose potential threats or limitations to the Whiting Field mission.

Specifically, acquisition efforts focus on areas of land underneath flight tracks or within noise contours that are unsuitable for residential areas due to safety and noise concerns.

While Whiting Field has a clearly vested interest in removing potential barriers to flight operations, Santa Rosa County benefits from the purchase of the easements too. NAS

Whiting Field is the single largest economic contributor in Santa Rosa County, according the Team Santa Rosa Economic Development Council website, and ensuring the sustainability of the base’s mission-essential operations is therefore of interest to both the naval base and the county.

Additionally, the partnership is economically beneficial for both parties in another sense. Santa Rosa County competes in statewide programs for conservation grant money, and then partners with the base to make purchases.

Whiting Field and the county have reached an agreement in which Whiting Field pays 75 percent of the costs of the easements through the use of REPI funds, while the state and the county contribute the remaining 25 percent through grant money.

The deal allows Santa Rosa the ensured continued economic impact of the base, while stretching their funds as a result of the agreement.

“It’s a win-win agreement with the county,” explained Randy Roy, Whiting Field’s community liaison and a key partner in the recent land acquisitions. “They recognize that we (Whiting

Field) are a huge economic contributor, and through our partnership we are able to purchase more land rights, which ultimately benefits both Whiting Field and Santa Rosa County.”

The partnership has resulted in what is approximately a half-mile “bubble” of base-buffering easements surrounding the perimeter of Whiting Field and limits areas, that, if developed, would be a hindrance to the safe execution of flight operations in the area. The program has purchased 3,500 total acres since 2008, re-

sulting in more than $13 million in expenditures.

“It’s important to understand that we’re only buying easements,” said Roy. “Our only concern is development rights, not actual land acquisition, and most of those rights deal with agricultural land.

We’re just looking to maintain compatible land use strategies, and the money we’re spending goes a long way into ensuring that compatibility.

The county has made tremendous efforts to protect the airfields from incompatible developments in the surrounding areas,

and is just as focused as we are on long-term mission protection. Whiting Field has established itself a Department of Defense model for this type of land acquisition because we’ve been so successful and have such a great partnership with the county.”

Additionally, purchases of some land areas have the added bonus of protecting the habitats of threatened and endangered species, where development or bisection of their habitats could possibly cause harm or cause them to move towards the airfields, posing a danger to both the ani-

mals as well as pilots in training.

Roy also noted that many of the deals Whiting Field is currently involved in are long-range projects, focused on long-term mission protection.

“Santa Rosa County has currently adopted legislation which mandates development restrictions that are supportive of the Whiting Field mission. But, the mission can change over time, and we’re concerned with mission continuation no matter how platform and aircraft requirements might change. Our current work and forward-looking focus gives the commanding officer of Training Air Wing Five continued flexibility to meet the mission.

The easements are effective as long as the installation is here, and offer protection in case county codes change.”

Current multi-year land usage agreements are set to expire in 2017, but with $7 million currently in REPI budget, Roy is confident that Whiting Field will maintain mission sustainability through barrier removal, and is looking forward to future partnering to secure land easements abutting outlying fields in Alabama.

“Our goal is to protect the mission 25 years from now. Because we’ve had that mindset in the past – that’s what’s allowing us to be so successful today,” he said. “The focus on mission is absolutely pivotal in our daily effort to provide future aviators to meet our country’s national strategy. We are also focused on looking ahead and ensuring that we’re set for the future.”

American Diabetes Month From www.cdc.gov

D

iabetes: if you don’t live with it yourself, then it’s likely you have a family member or friend who does.

This November during National Diabetes Month, ask yourself if you’re at risk of type 2 diabetes and take steps to prevent it. Diabetes affects 26 million Americans, with 19 million people diagnosed and 7 million undiagnosed.

And an estimated 79 million American adults aged 20 years or older have prediabetes, which puts them at high risk for developing the disease.

What is diabetes?

Diabetes is a disease in which blood glucose levels are above normal. Most of the food we eat is turned into glucose, or sugar, for our bodies to use for energy. The pancreas, an organ that lies near the stomach, makes a hormone called insulin to help glucose get into the cells of our bodies. When you have diabetes, your body either doesn’t make enough insulin or can’t use its own insulin as well as it should. This causes sugar to build up in your blood.

What are the types of diabetes?

Type 1 diabetes, which was previously called insulindependent diabetes mellitus or juvenile-onset diabetes, may account for about 5 percent of all diagnosed cases of diabetes.

Type 2 diabetes, which was previously called non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus or adult-onset diabetes, may account for about 90 to 95 percent of all diagnosed cases of diabetes.

Gestational diabetes is a type of diabetes that only pregnant women get. If not treated, it can cause problems for mothers and babies. Gestational diabetes develops in 2 to 10 percent of all pregnancies but usually disappears when a pregnancy is over.

Other specific types of diabetes resulting from specific genetic syndromes, surgery, drugs, malnutrition, infec-

Diabetics use a blood glucose meter and a lancet (a tool to get a drop of blood) to check their blood glucose. A meter will use the blood to give you a number which is known as the blood glucose level. It is usually checked before meals, after meals and sometimes at bedtime.

tions and other illnesses may account for 1 to 5 percent of all diagnosed cases of diabetes.

Prediabetes is an elevated blood glucose level that is not quite high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes, but is higher than normal. One in three American adults has prediabetes, and most do not even know they have it. Many people with prediabetes who do not lose weight or do moderate physical activity will develop type 2 diabetes within three years.

Diabetes can cause serious health complications including heart disease, blindness, kidney failure and amputations of the foot, toe or leg. Diabetes is the seventh leading cause of death in the United States.

Risk factors for type 2 diabetes You are at increased risk for developing prediabetes

and type 2 diabetes if you: • Are 45 years of age or older.

• Are overweight.

• Have a family history of type 2 diabetes.

• Are physically active fewer than three times per week.

• Ever gave birth to a baby that weighed more than 9 pounds.

• Ever had diabetes while pregnant (gestational diabetes).

What can you do?

Researchers are making progress in identifying the exact genetics and “triggers” that predispose some individuals to develop type 1 diabetes, but prevention remains elusive.

A number of studies have shown that regular physical activity can significantly reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is associated with obesity.

The CDC-led National Diabetes Prevention Program is an evidence-based lifestyle change program for preventing type 2 diabetes.

It can help people cut their risk of developing type 2 diabetes in half.

The Diabetes Prevention Program research study showed that making modest behavior changes helped participants lose 5 to 7 percent of their body weight – that is 10 to 14 pounds for a 200-pound person.

These lifestyle changes reduced the risk of developing type 2 diabetes by 58 percent in people with prediabetes.

Participants work with a lifestyle coach in a group setting to receive a one-year lifestyle change program that includes 16 core sessions (usually one per week) and six post-core sessions (one per month).

You don’t have to do this alone. Prevent or delay type 2 diabetes today by learning about its risks and making lifestyle changes with a group in your community.

Naval Hospital Pensacola (NHP) provides one-on-one counseling by certified diabetes educators for all enrolled beneficiaries. The hospital also provides monthly diabetes classes for all TRICARE beneficiaries. The “Diabetes Home Management” class is for newly diagnosed diabetics, but it is also a great refresher course for anyone. There is also a “Prediabetes” class that discusses ways to prevent diabetes.

For more information on the counseling or the classes, contact your Medical Home Port Team or call one of the diabetes educators at 505-7099 or 505-6367.

From http://www.diabetes.org/

During American Diabetes Month this November, the American Diabetes Association will continue to ask the community to submit a personal image to the Association’s Facebook mosaic representing what “A Day in the Life of Diabetes” means to them to showcase the extraordinary effort it takes to live a day with diabetes.

Pensacola-area residents can post images of themselves or someone they care about, or otherwise represent how the disease impacts their lives. The

NETC honors civilian employees

By Ens. Shereka Riley NETC PAO

Naval Education and Training Command (NETC) recognized several civilian employees during its quarterly awards ceremony onboard NAS Pensacola Oct. 24.

The ceremony, held at the Naval Aviation Medical Institute (NAMI) auditorium, announced the junior and senior civilians of the quarter and honored seven civilian employees who earned length of service awards. NETC’s Learning and Development division, located in Norfolk, Va., joined the ceremony via video teleconference.

Dorothy Singleton, a management analyst in the Development and Planning Division, was recognized as the Junior Civilian of the Quarter for the third quarter of 2013.

“I have an amazing boss and team to work with,” said Singleton.

Singleton began working for NETC in 2009 as a secretary and transferred to work in Planning, Metrics and Analysis in October 2011.

“Dorothy is an exceptional employee and individual who I am thankful to have the opportunity to work with every day,” said

Katrina Chancellor

Michele Harrison, branch head for Planning, Metrics and Analysis. “She is a major asset to our team, willing to take on whatever comes her way and support whoever needs help. Her work is superb, and she has the perfect personality – always upbeat and ready to tackle each day.”

Katrina Chancellor, a program analyst in the Total Force Manpower division, was named the Senior Civilian of the Quarter. Erica Biron, the branch head for the Total Force Manpower Optimization branch, described Chancellor’s performance and professionalism as truly exceptional.

“Ms. Chancellor’s efforts have been focused on aligning our manning to support the surge in the number of Sailors in the

training commands,” said Biron. “As the lead for Enlisted Quarterly Demand Planning, she worked tirelessly to show the impact the planned accession throughput would have on our training sites, which ultimately led to a reduction in throughput. She also managed the first large-scale definite direct recall of reservists to augment ‘A’ school instructors.”

According to Chancellor, there is inspiration all around you when you work on a military installation.

“I thoroughly enjoy my job at NETC,” said Chancellor. “When I retired from military service, I was hoping to find employment that would allow me to continue to contribute to my country in a meaningful way. I am very happy that my job allows me to provide support to the men and women of our armed forces who are serving our country.”

Following the Civilian of the Quarter awards, several civilian employees were honored for their length of federal service ranging from 20 to 35 years.

Two individuals from NETC headquarters in Pensacola received 30-

year length of service awards. Jeffrey Brashear, lead financial management analyst for the Financial Management Systems Division, and Joseph Yudiski, supply systems analyst for the logistics department. According to NETC Commander Rear Adm. Don Quinn, civilian employees are critical to the successful completion of the training mission.

“The NETC team members we honored today are representative of the highly trained professionals we have throughout the training domain,” said Quinn. “The exemplary work carried out by these patriots every day in training commands around the world is key to the success of our Navy and Marine Corps team.

The training team enables fleet readiness, making

our civilian employees a critical part of our warfighting capability.”

The five individuals who were presented length of service awards at the learning and development division in Norfolk, Va. include: Steven E. Childs, a program analyst for the learning standards branch, received a 20-year Length of Service award.

Leslie Desenburg, a program analyst for the Learning Standards branch, received a 25-year length of service award.

Bruce Johnson, surface warfare enterprise training program coordinator for

Enterprise Integration, also received a 25-year length of service award.

Fred Barranger, branch head for production requirements management, received a 35-year length of service award, as did Dean Gould, a program analyst for the learning standards branch.

NETC’s mission is to transform civilians into highly skilled, combatready warfighters, and enable their career-long growth and development.

Help for victims of sexual assault in the DoD community is a call, click or text away. The SafeHelpline provides live crisis support and information by trained staff.

The Sexual Assault Prevention and Response (SAPR) program provides prevention, intervention and a 24/7/365 response. Active-duty and adult family member sexual assault victims have a choice of reporting options, unrestricted and restricted. Unrestricted reporting allows a victim to have an advocate, seek medical care, counseling, legal services and safety interventions. To access an unrestricted report, the victim can report to his/her chain-of-command, security/law enforcement, NCIS, SAPR Victim Advocate (VA), SARC, and his/her CO shall commence an investigation.

Restricted reporting allows a confidential report, which does not trigger command nor law enforcement notification and the victim can have a SAPR VA, and seek medical care and/or counseling. To access restricted reporting, the victim can disclose his/her sexual assault only to the SARC, a current SAPR VA, a health care provider and/or a chaplain. To contact the NASP 24/7 VA, call 449-9231/2. To contact the SARC during working hours, call 452-5990, ext.
