Annual fest celebrates military children From NAS Key West Public Affairs

M

orale, Welfare and Recreation celebrates the Month of the Military Child in April with the annual Naval Air Station Key West Youth Fest Saturday.

The event, which runs from 2 - 5 p.m. at Sigsbee Park field, includes activities, exhibits and entertainment.

Children from the Groovy Kids Dance Crew will perform a hip hop dance routine and the motivational rapper “ABSOLOOT” will perform. Games, inflatables, a rock

wall, face painting and food will keep youngsters busy and happy.

This month’s recognition underscores the important role military children play in the armed forces community. Sponsored by the DOD military community and family policy, it is a time to applaud military families and their children for the daily sacrifices they make and the challenges they overcome.

The Month of the Military Child is part of the legacy left by former Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger. He established the DOD commemoration in 1986 to see CHILD page 2

Communities can help prevent child abuse From Commander, Navy Installations Command

I

n addition to being the Month of the Military Child, April is also Child Abuse Prevention Month.

During this month, all active duty, Reservists and civilian DOD personnel are encouraged to reflect on ways to support and help strengthen military families.

To emphasize how vital community support is to child abuse prevention, this year’s theme is “Keep Our Children Safe. Child Safety is a Community Responsibility.” To support this mission, community

members must - Be Informed, Be Attentive and Be Supportive.

Be Supportive All parents experience stress while raising young children, especially during the infancy and toddler stages; however, too many parents refuse to ask for help.

Therefore, we encourage the military community to become familiar with the emergency resources that are available to families in times of need.

There are available resources to aid parents: NAS Key West chaplain, Naval Branch Health Clinic see ABUSE page 3

Actions do speak louder than words

“A

April 7 1945 - First two Navy flight nurses land on an active battlefield at Iwo Jima.

April 8 1925 - Lt. John Price, piloting a VF-1 plane, makes a night landing on USS Langley (CV 1), at sea off San Diego, California, the first on board a Navy carrier.

April 9 1943 - Due to World War II, the rank of commodore is reestablished as a temporary rank. During the 1986 Defense Authorization bill, O-7 officers are called rear admiral (lower half).

April 10 1966 - During the Vietnam War, the river patrol boats (PBRs) commence operations on inland waters of South Vietnam.

April 11 1783 - Congress declares the cessation of arms against Great Britain, just a few days after British Parliament passed a similar resolution, thus ending hostilities of the American Revolution.

April 12 1981 - The first re-useable Space Shuttle, Columbia (STS-1) is launched with an all-US Navy crew.

April 13 1981 - AV-8A Harriers deploy as a Marine Air Group on board an amphibious assault ship for the first time.

ctions speak louder than words” is something we all have heard at some point and time in our lives but where exactly did this saying come from?

The origin can be found in literature and is hundreds of years old. Sources say this expression dates back as far as 1628. It was first used in its current form in the U.S. by Abraham Lincoln in 1856.

You can also look back to an essay written in 1736 titled “Melancholy State of Province,” in which the statement is found.

In 1692, Gersham Bulkeley wrote “actions are more significant than words” in his book “Will and Doom.”

We can even find multiple scriptures in the Bible that talk about actions being stronger than words.

The question of where this phrase originated is not as important as how often we apply this particular idiom to our own lives.

From a young age, my parents taught me that my actions showed others my true character and that my words meant nothing if I didn’t back them up

Child

highlight the year-round contributions, courage and patriotism of the military community’s youngest members.

Recognizing the importance of military members’ children, DOD created the child development program offering child care up to age 12. Similarly, youth development programs offer older children opportunities for recreation, and character, social

with my actions. This phrase was something my parents modeled as well.

When I look back on my childhood, and even now in my adult years, my parents’ actions have been what I most remember.

Now that I am a parent, my wife and I try to live CHAPLAIN'S this out as well CORNER but there are times that it can be harder than others.

If I am teaching my children to respect leaderNAS Key West Command Chaplain ship but they see me disrespecting Lt. those who are my Scott Mason leaders, it will be my actions - not my words - they remember.

If I quote scripture about loving others as myself, but my actions don’t reflect that, my words will mean nothing If I am constantly talking about why we have rules and laws to keep us safe but my actions don’t match what I am teaching, my children will eventually follow my actions and my words will have no meaning.

We can quote scripture or give advice all day long, but if we are not reflecting the words in our actions, we can expect those learning from us to do the same.

In Matthew 21:28-32 it talks

about a man who had two sons.

He went to his first son and told him to go work in the vineyard.

The son told him he wouldn’t but later changed his mind and went. The man went to the second son and told him to go work in the vineyard and the son told him he would but didn’t go.

Jesus asked his followers which of the sons did his father’s will. He then explained to them it was the first son because though he may have first said no, he later did what his father asked of him. The other son may have said yes it but he didn’t do what was asked.

This week I challenge us to all look at our own lives and see where our words are not matching our actions.

I hope your time reading this article has encouraged you. Please come and join us on Sundays at 10:30 a.m. at Truman Annex Chapel for worship service with our praise band and children’s church.

An Easter sunrise service is set for 6:45 a.m. April 16 at Truman Beach. Please visit our Facebook page (Truman Chapel) for upcoming events.

In addition, the new parents support program helps parents during pregnancy and childbirth, and children up to three, to reach their full potential through home visitations and parent support groups.

Be Attentive All families with young children need support to help maintain a safe, stable and nurturing home. For military families with young children, the deployment cycle can be a very trying time. This is why it’s important for parents to stay connected to their family, friends and command leadership.

There are ways communities can

offer support without being intrusive: Initiate positive conversations with young parents; talk with parents about their hopes and goals for their children; help parents identify their needs; share self-care strategies that you have used when feeling overwhelmed; acknowledge parents’ frustrations and recognize their efforts to address the issue; establish and maintain consistent contact with young parents through routine telephone calls, texts or emails; keep a watchful eye on the children in your neighborhood; listen to parents when they tell you about their challenges; and keep a watchful eye on infants to ensure that they sleep on their backs and on firm bedding.

Be Informed Child safety is a shared community responsibility. In order for our com-

munities to thrive, we must all do our part to support the well-being of children and families. Communities must begin to recognize the different behaviors and life circumstances that may signal a need for assistance.

Here are circumstances that frequently require support for new parents and families with young children: Single active-duty parent with young children; relationship problems - a spouse or co-parenting conflict; parent and child bonding challenges; abrupt changes that negatively affect family finances; medical issues for a parent or child; and family isolation or crisis.

SAAPM continued from page 1

The Difference Starts with You. Step Up and Step In to Stop Sexual Assault.” It serves as a reminder that everyone has a role to play in ensuring the men and women around them can live and work free from the threat of sexual readiness to perform its mission.

Military members and civilians alike can protect the mission by ensuring everyone within DOD is committed to advancing an environment where sexist behaviors and sexual harassment, hazing, bullying and assault are not tolerated, condoned or ignored.

NAS Key West will observe SAAPM with a variety of activities and events: “Walk a Mile in Their Shoes” is one of those annual events in which participants walk, run and/or cycle in support of all survivors of sexual assault. Participants log the miles, which are posted at the Boca Chica Fitness Center. Team and individual winners are announced at the SAAPM Fair, scheduled for 2 p.m. April. 21.

A Sexual Assault Prevention and

Response informational booth will be set up at Youth Fest, set for 2 - 5 p.m.

Saturday at Sigsbee Field.

Pure Praxis is scheduled for April 21, with one-hour presentations at 8:30 and 10:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. in Bldg.

A-515, Boca Chica Field. The program features a performance group that uses improvisation to illustrate different and difficult life situations to which audience members can relate and respond.

Though the Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Program is a year-round effort, SAAPM offers additional opportunities for members of the DOD community to renew our commitment to eliminating sexual assault from our ranks.

Every sailor, civilian and family member plays a part in reducing and eliminating sexual assault.

Understanding how to recognize opportunities for intervention is vital to stopping unsafe behavior, to include retaliation.

Each day we can take steps to foster a culture of dignity and respect with proper ethical behavior, even when no one is watching.

There are many ways to step up and step in to stop sexual assault,

including active intervention techniques. Take action to: Intervene - Approach the situation and tell them you are concerned.

Enlist Others to Help - Get friends, colleagues, family, or someone in a position of authority to help diffuse the situation.

Distract - Create a diversion.

Support - Check-in to make sure everyone is safe.

There are many ways to be involved in SAAPM and the SAPR Program.
