ust a few short years ago, NAS Key West had five credentialed Child Development Home providers caring for the children of their military neighbors in base housing.

Today there are none. In fact, base housing residents are offering babysitting services to their neighbors. Illegally.

“It’s a big problem. There are a lot of people doing it on base,” said Child and Youth Programs Director Christina Chaves.

“They don’t have the training and the liability is on the command.”

for a total of 10 or more hours per week on a regular basis, paid or unpaid, must be a certified CDH provider. One child for one hour equals one child care hour.

To provide day care on military installations, providers must meet Navy child care guidelines, have the CDH credential and be registered with the base CDC, said Chaves, who oversees CDH certification.

“I’ve had them say ‘we are just watching our friends’ children.’

But friends won’t be friends if something should happen to their children,” Chaves said.

The NMCRS fund drive is one of the only fund drives that the military does where every single dollar goes directly back to Sailors and Marines needing assistance.

Last year, NAS Key West raised the highest amount in the region and that is the goal this year The Mission of the Navy and Marine Corps Relief Society is to provide, in partnership with the Navy and Marine Corps, financial, educational, and other need-based assistance to active-duty and retired Sailors see campaign page 2

Unchangeable

March 17 2006 - While conducting maritime security operations in the Indian Ocean, USS Cape St. George (CG 71) and USS Gonzalez (DDG 66) return fire on a group of pirates, killing one and wounding five.

March 18 1918 - Ensign Stephen Potter is the first American to shoot down an enemy seaplane, a German plane off the German coast during World War I.

March 19 1942 - Secretary of the Navy James Forrestal places the newly-established construction battalions, later called Seabees, under the command of officers with the Civil Engineer Corps.

March 20 2003 - Operation Iraqi Freedom begins after USS Bunker Hill (CG 52) is among the first to launch tomahawk missiles on Iraq.

March 21 1917 - Loretta Walsh becomes the first woman Navy chief petty officer when sworn in as chief yeoman.

March 22 1915 - “Naval Aviator” replaces the title “Navy Air Pilot” for officers who become qualified as aviators.

March 23 1882 - Secretary of the Navy William Hunt creates the Office of Naval Intelligence with General Order No. 292.

We are still in the first week of daylight saving time. Just so we are clear, I have never liked this change in my entire life. And with children, both time changes are horrible since schedules are out of whack for a few weeks.

Bedtime is messed up. No one is hungry until almost bed time.

Only one of my four kids actually wakes up in time for school while the other ones have to be dragged out of bed. I fall asleep later so I am dragging in the morning. Basically, I don’t understand why we still have this in place since our world has evolved so much.

What is also interesting to consider on the larger scale is that the world doesn’t change its time just because we arbitrarily decided that on some day it would be best to spring forward or fall back an hour. The earth is still rotating and orbiting the sun at the same speed it always has been for millions of years.

The rest of nature doesn’t skip an hour because we do. The world is unchanged.

Nonetheless, the fact still remains that it’s unavoidable I have to change my clocks otherwise I will be out of sync. As a result, I am forced to conform to the change even if I do so kicking and screaming until 2 a.m.

There are a lot of things in life I cannot change and neither can you. Even after scientific studies show the adverse affects of

and Marines, their eligible family members and survivors.

As a non-profit, volunteer service organization, NMCRS uses both financial and non-financial resources to identify solutions to

time change, it seems this will not change any time soon. And so, twice a year, we are forced to change our schedule.

However, my focus here is not about the unchangeable, but the changeable within the unchangeable. I have had and will have distresses in life CHAPLAIN'S that I cannot CORNER change.

The negative results may be out of my control.

What I can control is how I look at what is hapNAS Key West pening.

Command Chaplain Going back to the time change, Lt. Ethan Everts I am tired and don’t understand the need. However, what I cannot deny is what I experienced on Tuesday as I drove to work on South Roosevelt. I saw a beautiful sunrise where the sun was a pinkish red with a portion still below the horizon with the waters of the Atlantic reflecting the colors all the way to the shore. It was an incredible scene that those driving, biking and running along the route witnessed.

It was at this point I saw the only good of the time change. For months, I hadn’t seen a sunrise like that because the sun was already up by the time I left for work. It is the extra hour of darkness in the morning that gives me the opportunity to see the artwork of God and thank Him for such a sight to see.

No two sunrises are alike and meet emerging needs. They help clients improve personal financial skills and encourage individual financial responsibility.

If you wish to contribute, please contact your department/command representative or ABH1 Jose Ventura or ACC Chris Ollinger at (305) 2932840.

I have yet to hear about one that is ugly. No matter what comes your way; no matter how bad it is, God can still bring beauty into your unchangeable situation. I didn’t get to see mine until a few days later. In my life, it has been days, weeks, months or years until I saw the beauty God created from dark situations.

Every event in the past is unchangeable, but how we see it is not. God can take these pains in life and transform them into a brilliant masterpiece if you allow him to do so. It may mean you must face these pains in the darkest part of the evening, but as you travel down the road, the sun will rise in all its splendor to remind you that there is still good happening around you.

Come join us for Protestant worship service on Sundays at 10:30 a.m. in the Truman Chapel.

For Easter, our only service will be at 7:30 a.m. at the Truman Annex Recreational Center beach as the sun rises to remind us that there is hope in dark times.

If you are in need of chaplain care, please call (305) 293-2318, Naval Air Station Key West, or (305) 292-8788, Coast Guard Sector Key West.

NEXCOM celebrates 70 years of serving Navy, families From NEXCOM Public Affairs

hile the Navy Exchange Service Command can trace its roots back to the 1800s, when Sailors had to depend on “bumboats” that moored alongside their ships to buy personal items, it wasn’t until April 1, 1946, that Navy leadership officially created a command to handle the necessary retail business within the Navy.

“We’ve come a long way since those early days,” said Rear Adm. Robert Bianchi (Ret), NEXCOM chief executive officer.

“From bumboats and slop chests to a world class retail business, NEXCOM delivers what our Navy families need, wherever

they are stationed.”

Today, 70 years after its official establishment, NEXCOM provides oversight for 100 NEX complexes made up of more than 300 individual stores, 39 Navy Lodges, 134 ships stores, the Navy Clothing Textile and Research Facility, Uniform Program Management Office and Telecommunications Program Office.

NEXCOM’s mission is to provide quality goods and services at a savings to its authorized customers and to support Navy quality of life programs for active duty military, retirees, reservists and their families.

eabees and Civil Engineering Corps officers seldom “go down to the sea in ships” but they did on March 5 when Naval Air Station Key West Public Works Officer Lt. Cdr. Brian Crystal hostedm a sunset sail commemorating the Seabees’ 74th birthday.

Guest of honor was EOC James Manley from Alexandria, Minnesota. In May of 1970, as a 21-yearold EO2 he was a key player in the rescue of two

Vietnamese soldiers in a life-threatening situation.

He was awarded the Navy Commendation Medal with combat V for heroic achievement.

While the celebration was on the sea, HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVES traditions were followed: EOC Manley and the youngest Seabee, BU3 MatColumnist thew GoodJim King rich, cut

the cake during the ceremony.

Naval Air Station Key West’s CEC officers are responsible for caring for the Navy’s real estate and advising the commanding officer on all matters concerning Navy property.

Additionally, they provide management and oversight to the Navy Mobile Construction Battalions. The Seabees, CEC and Naval Facilities Engineering Command form the three-legged stool

needed to maintain Navy real estate at home and abroad. The NMCBs are deployed around the world to support the government’s foreign policy in war and peace.

The Seabees are the result of the vision of Adm. Ben Moreell, who anticipated our involvement in Imperial Japan’s territorial expansion by force of arms in China and Southeast Asia. President Franklin see seabee page 4

Many received eye glasses for the first time. In that era, only the near blind and scholars wore eye glasses.

Preventative dentistry was also a luxury. A visit to a naval optometrist and dentist corrected the deficiencies.

These men, many granted physical waivers, were

“NEX customers can expect to see us reinforce the important value of their NEX benefit during the month of April, in celebration of 70 years of excellence,” said Rich

March brings focus on traumatic brain injury From Naval Hospital Jacksonville

M

arch is National Brain Injury Awareness Month, a time to recognize the more than five million Americans living with traumatic brain injury-related disabilities.

TBI can occur when an outside force impacts the head with enough force to move the brain within the skull, resulting in a direct injury to the brain.

“Those suffering from traumatic brain injury can display a wide variety of symptoms based on the severity of the injury,” said Kirsten Pollick, Naval

CDH

ing to be certified as CDH providers.

Anyone interested in applying for CDH certification must submit to a medical screening, complete an application packet to CYP, provide three references, undergo an extensive background check and participate in a family interview in the residence, she said.

Once the application is accepted, Chaves said the applicant must complete a free, 20-hour training program that focuses on developmentally appropriate childcare practices, participate in child abuse training, complete CPR training, take training in discipline techniques, review small business course work and complete home inspections by fire, safety, preventive medicine and CYP.

Hospital Jacksonville’s neuropsychologist, TBI program director, and mental health department head. “Common signs and symptoms include headache or neck pain; memory loss; slowness in thinking, speaking, acting, or reading; getting lost or easily confused; fatigue and mood changes; blurred vision; and ear ringing.”

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, TBI accounted for more than 2.2 million emergency department visits, 280,000 hospitalizations and 50,000 deaths in the U.S. in 2010. Its estimated impact on the economy is

about $60 billion annually.

Signs and symptoms of TBI may be subtle and might not appear until days or weeks following the injury, while some symptoms can be missed altogether.

Children with a brain injury can have the same symptoms as adults, but it’s often harder for them to let others know how they feel.

Active duty and reservists are at an increased risk for sustaining a TBI, due to deployment to areas where risks of experiencing blast exposures - such as improvised explosive devices - are increased. However, about 80 percent of TBIs in new military personnel occur in

non-deployed settings, such as motor vehicle crashes, firearms, falls, sports, and physical violence.

From 2000 to 2014, almost 314,000 service members sustained a traumatic brain injury in both training and combat; 83 percent were mild.

Individuals with suspected brain injuries should seek medical care immediately by contacting their Medical Home Port team to schedule an appointment, or for emergencies go to the emergency room or call 911.

To find out more about the hospital’s TBI program, call the program manager at (904) 546-6331.

Because the background check can take up to four months to complete, a candidate whose application - minus the background check - can start the training program if they wish.

When training and inspections are complete, the final paperwork is then submitted to the commanding officer for his signature.

Care provided though a CDH is for children aged 6 weeks to 12 years and providers have the option of providing care during nights and weekends.

There are financial considerations when beginning a small business like home childcare. The largest initial investment is liability insurance, which is mandatory for all certified CDH providers.

Items purchased for the childcare business are tax deductible. The CYP has a lending closet full of items to help defer start-up

expenses.

Providers are responsible for purchasing USDAapproved food for the children. As an incentive to participate in their program, the USDA provides cash reimbursements to those providers that participate.

The final financial consideration is the fee for services, which is negotiated between you and the parents of the children, with guidance from the CDH program. There are strict guidelines that determine how many children may be cared for in a home.

Children-to-adult ratios should be considered when determining financial gain.

The training and support are free. The other benefits of completing the program include job transferability between installations and continued CYP support.

Chaves also emphasized the value to the families

who would be using the provider’s services.

“Home inspections, monthly training and inspections ensure a safe environment for the children and protect the military member and the command,” she added.
