Secretary of the Navy celebrates diversity during LGBT event

BY LISA FERDINANDO DoD News, Defense Media Activity

T

he policy that banned openly gay people from serving in the military was “insidious and morally wrong,” and its repeal has led to a strengthened, more diverse force, Navy Secretary Ray Mabus said Thursday.

Mabus, who spoke at the Defense Department’s event marking June

as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Pride Month, said the repeal of the so-called “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” law, which took effect in September 2011, was long overdue.

“Just five years ago an event like this would not have been possible,” Mabus said at the Pentagon celebration, which included the participation of openly gay service members.

The ban was because of “flawed logic” that claimed the inclusion

of gay and bisexual troops would erode the warfighting capability of the U.S, Mabus said. “And yet, the Navy, the Marines, the Army, the Air Force (and the) Coast Guard are the most powerful forces in the world today,” he added. “It shows that a more diverse force is a stronger force.”

As a result of the 2011 repeal, troops no longer have to live parts of their lives in the shadows and often in fear, he said. Now, they can

be fully open about who they really are, Mabus said.

While there has been a lot of progress, more work remains in meeting all the goals of DOD Pride, an employee resource group that supports the LGBT community, Mabus said.

The force needs to represent and reflect the nation it defends, the Navy secretary said, noting see LGBT page 3

We have had some rain this past week to say the least. We have moved into the wet season, which is also coupled with hurricane season - as we were reminded by Tropical Storm Colin that blew past us.

As a runner, I usually do not voluntarily go out when it is raining. However, Wednesday morning I decided to run a few miles.

I didn’t hear any rain, so I went outside to see looming clouds heading my direction. As I did warm ups, it started to drizzle; that didn’t bother me, so I decided to start running.

However, about a half mile into the run, the rain started to pick up more. By a full mile, it was raining pretty hard and I was soaked but there was nothing much I could do except run the rest of my route. I was soaked head-to-toe when I got home. My wife and kids were wondering what I was thinking.

I was thinking, “I wanted to run, and it was just rain.”

As I was running, I was also thinking about what was happening around me in just the short time I was outside. It

had rained the night before so I knew the ground was still wet so I figured puddles would form.

What I was not prepared for as I came back were the puddles that weren’t there just minutes before.

We have many options when, not if, rain comes CHAPLAIN'S into our lives. My CORNER first option at seeing the sign of rain was to turn around and do my workout inside or not at all.

NAS Key West However, I Command Chaplain knew I wanted and needed to Lt. Ethan Everts run. Since there was no danger, flood or lightning, I proceeded.

Sometimes in life, even when we can see the clouds of grief, sadness, pain looming we have to decide whether or not to keep going. We have to ask, “Am I up for this challenge? Is this what I really want?

When it starts to rain harder in life, we may be tempted to give up and just turn around at the half-mile mark.

As new hurdles come along, like puddles, you may need to pay attention to the path you

are running, or as my 3-year-old theologian did the night before, make the best of it and splash right through the puddles and have fun.

Despite whatever you face in this race of and life, the important thing is to finish it.

If we decide to shelter or cancel at every possible chance of rain, we will never face the challenge or improve ourselves. If we quit because we are caught in the rain, we start to naively say, “At least I tried.”

I can tell you that when you overcome these temptations/ hurdles/setbacks you will feel stronger and have a resiliency to continue to run. So do not let the clouds and rainstorms in this life keep you from pushing forward in achieving what is important.

Just keep running. Remember it’s just rain and you will dry off.

If you are in need of a group of faith runners, come to the Truman Chapel on Sundays for our Worship Service at 10:30 a.m. If you need a coach to help you through your race, call your chaplain for guidance and care at (305) 293-2318, Naval Air Station Key West, or (305) 2928788, Coast Guard Sector Key West. God bless and go splash in the puddles!

Battle of Midway: Remembering the brass

T

here were seven months of bad news after the Japanese Imperial Navy made its sneak attack at Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941.

Adm. Husband Kimmel, commander U.S. Pacific Fleet, was charged with dereliction of duty and reduced in rank. On Dec. 17, 1941, Chester Nimitz, a submarine officer, was appointed Kimmel’s replacement and promoted to admiral. In three years, President Franklin Roosevelt promoted Nimitz to the five-star rank of fleet admi-

ral.

Lt. Gen. Walter Short, in charge of U.S. HISTORICAL Army defensPERSPECTIVES es at Pearl Harbor, was also charged and reduced in rank. Roosevelt appointed Columnist Gen. Douglas Jim King MacArthur to replace him.

In 1999, after much pressure from their families and other supporters, Kimmel and Short

were exonerated.

It would be a rare professional warrior who didn’t salivate for a legacy of a decisive victory in a great battle of historical importance. One such battle took place on Oct. 7, 1571, when a coalition combined to form the Christian Holy League. They engaged Muslim Ottoman Turks in the greatest Christian naval victory against the Muslims. The league’s fleet was commanded

by Don Juan de of Austria and the Turks were commanded by

Ali Pasha. The League had 316 ships and the Muslims 250.

Thousands of rowers, Sailors and soldiers engaged cannon at point blank range; the archers short bows coupled with bludgeons and edged weapons created deadly bloody mayhem.

The decisive Christian victory was the last naval battle fought exclusively with galleys propelled by oars. The enemy fleet was smashed breaking the Turkish naval power in the see MIDWAY page 4

that there are 65,000 active duty LGBT members and 1 million LGBT veterans. He also encouraged those discharged under “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” to have their military records reviewed to change the discharge characterization.

The Defense Department is reviewing its policy on military service by openly transgender individuals.

Defense Secretary Ash Carter is expected to make an announcement later this year, a DoD spokesman said.

DOD Pride presented a civilian award to Army Undersecretary Patrick Murphy, a former U.S. representative who was co-author of the legislation that repealed “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.”

“We have a lot to be proud of, about

where we are and where we’ve come,” Murphy said, adding that he is proud to have been a part of repealing the ban. The fight for equality goes on every day, Murphy said.

Retired Navy Adm. Mike Mullen was recognized with DOD Pride’s military leadership award.

Mullen supported the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” while he served as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Retired Air Force Master Sgt. Bert Gillott accepted the award on behalf of Mullen. Gillott, who had served in the chairman’s office under Mullen, said he never thought in his career, or even in his lifetime, that he would ever see the repeal of the ban.

“I was tired of lying, tired of worrying if I would be outed,” Gillott said.

He was fearful, he said, that the next phone call would be from the commander ejecting him for being gay.

“It was with Admiral Mullen’s cour-

age and leadership and his personal belief in us that I was able to serve my 24th and final year in the United States Air Force with honesty and integrity,” Gillott said.

Carter said LGBT service members have fought and served for the nation throughout history and embody the values and ideals of the nation.

“Their readiness and willingness to serve has made our military stronger and our nation safer,” he said. “We continue to take great pride in all that these men and women contribute to the department and our mission.”

At the event, audience member Army Capt. Denise Quintana who has served for 13 years, said she never thought there would be a repeal on “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.”

“I’m just glad that I’m able to be open and not hide any more, and I’m thankful for everybody in support of LGBT,” she told DOD News after the event.

Mediterranean.

Adm. William (Bull) Halsey was born on Oct. 30, 1882, and in 1904 he graduated the Naval Academy. Halsey served on the USS Missouri and later served on the captured Spanish gunboat.

Halsey was appointed commander of Carrier Division 2 with the carrier Enterprise as his flagship.

Enterprise was underway and scheduled to return to Pearl Harbor on Dec. 6, 1941. Stormy weather caused Halsey to remain at sea until the 7th.

When the U.S. broke the Japanese naval code an attack was being planned on the island. The

SM2 Jennifer Nguyen and ABH1 William Thompson work on Sailor’s documents in the Command Pass Coordinator’s office on Naval Air Station Key West’s Boca Chica Field Thursday. ‘The purpose of the CPC is to coordinate with a central Personnel Support Detatchment,’ said Thompson. “We assist Sailors with personal documents and act as a liaison with Jacksonville’s (Florida) PSD.’

Americans sent a message to be intercepted by the Japanese that the desalination plant on Midway Island was out of service.

Halsey - a warrior who had waited a lifetime for a major sea battle developed a debilitating case of dermatitis. Nimitz sent him to the hospital and appointed Rear Adm. Raymond Spruance to replace him.

The Battle of Midway was costly. The Japanese lost three carriers, 275 aircraft and 5,000 men. The Americans lost a destroyer, the carrier Yorktown, 150 aircraft and 300 men.

The Japanese no longer were the superior Navy; its forces from then on were on the defensive in the Pacific.

Walter Reed scientists, partners work to develop Zika vaccine FROM DEFENSE MEDIA ACTIVITY

A

s mosquitoes carrying the Zika virus spread illness to people across the Americas and beyond, scientists at Walter Reed Army Institute of Research are moving quickly, conducting preclinical research on a Zika vaccine candidate with plans to start human testing before the year ends.

The process has gone quickly, because the institute’s scientists know their flaviviruses, according to Army Col. Dr. Stephen Thomas. These include the mosquito-borne viruses that cause yellow fever, dengue, Japanese encephalitis and Zika virus diseases.

in flaviviruses, is the former deputy commander for operations at WRAIR in Silver Spring, Maryland, and the Zika program lead.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is tracking active Zika virus transmission in 39 countries and territories. In the continental United States, CDC reports 618 travel-associated Zika cases, 11 sexually transmitted cases, one case of Zika-related GuillainBarré syndrome, but so far there have been no reports of locally acquired mosquito-borne cases.

“Zika is a flavivirus, and we have been working on flaviviruses our entire history - since 1893 (on yellow fever),” he said. “So it’s in our DNA to work on flaviviruses, and we’ve been doing vaccine development for flaviviruses since World War II.”

The Walter Reed Army Institute of Research is developing a vaccine against the Zika virus in coordination with federal partners, including the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority of the Department of Health and Human Services and the National Institutes of Health National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

“There’s a race to get this done as quickly as possible,” Thomas said, “because there’s a public health emergency going on,” and because WRAIR is focused on supporting U.S. force readiness for service members deployed worldwide.

One of the reasons WRAIR can move fast on vaccines is its Pilot Bioproduction Facility for vaccines and biologics, established in 1958 to develop vaccines for

Something else that helped WRAIR scientists get a head start on Zika vaccine prototypes is a biosurveillance program conducted at one of the three WRAIR overseas expeditionary research laboratories.

“At the end of last year, we started to talk amongst ourselves that this Zika signal was starting to heat up,” Thomas recalled. “We had seen what happened with (mosquito-borne) dengue in

Central and South America (beginning) in the ‘80s. …

It went from having very little activity, and when the … viruses got introduced through travel and other means, it really took off.”

Thomas and his colleagues also watched chikungunya - a mosquitoborne alphavirus that likely originated in central and east Africa - make its way to Central and South America and the Caribbean between 2007 and 2013.

“It was the same sce-

nario playing out again and again, where you have this susceptible population because the virus has not circulated there before, so they have no herd immunity,” Thomas said. “Then you have the vector, in this case mosquitoes, capable of transmitting, and then you get introduction of the virus into that area and it starts taking off.”

The vaccine will contain a killed strain of the virus that is circulating now in South America, he added.
