No longer in uniform, Work and Family Life Consultant Tom Butler is once again assisting Sailors as a civilian contractor with Fleet and Family Support Center. Butler was Naval Air Station Key West’s command career counselor until his retirement in June.

Retired NCC turns counseling focus to military families

R

etired NCC Tom Butler has come home, at least in the sense he is back working with his favorite people - Sailors at Naval Air Station Key West. Only he is now adding other military services, as well as military spouses and families, to

his care list. At the beginning of November, Butler returned to NAS Key West as the work and family life consultant at Fleet and Family Support Center. “I spent 24 years working for Sailors,” said Butler, who helped thousands of Sailors set and reach their career goals. He said his decision to pursue the position at

FFSC was based on one thing: “I just wanted to be back working with the Sailors,” he said. As the WFLC, Butler oversees the ombudsman and individual augmentee support programs. “This gives me an opportunity to work for them, and then, more so, to work for the families,” he said. Butler said his Navy

experience is a benefit in his new position. For example, while on active duty he not only served as an IA, he was also in charge of IA Sailors at a previous command. Butler said his desire is all about supporting Sailors and their families. “Now I’m on the other side, a civilian,” he said.

And while we’re at it, let’s talk kitchen safety, so you can keep the happy in “happy holidays.” Most of us have started preparing for Thanksgiving and, for some, those plans include a turkey fryer and several gallons of oil. The National Fire Protection Association discourages the use of outdoor gas-fueled turkey fryers that cook the turkey in hot oil. The use of turkey fryers can lead to devastating

t’s that time of year when we get to eat an entire month’s worth of calories in a week! Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Your traditions may include friends and family coming together, cooking turkey, having pumpkin and apple pies, watching football or taking a nap after the feast. Of course, you could be like my family and break all traditions to do something different. Either way, this week should be one that refreshes you and brings you joy. To do that we must remember what we are thankful for in our lives. We are often gobbled up by different negative trifles that nestle into our lives. This negativity starts to pull us away from the joys of life or worse makes your joys into curses. This is why this holiday is so important. It reminds us that we have a lot to be thankful. Even if you had an awful year, there are still good people or events that you have in your life. And if you say there is none, the mere fact you are able to read this article right now tells me that you have more than you realize. Our chapel participated in Operation Christmas Child this year. We packed 26 shoeboxes to be delivered around this world to

be given to children who do not receive gifts, or even know what Christmas is. My favorite part of this, besides the impact it makes, is the fact my children see how much we really have. These boxes are filled with everyday items we take for grantCHAPLAIN'S ed: Toothpaste, CORNER toothbrush, pencils, pens, soap, socks, underwear and more. These items will be used until they are worn out NAS Key West or down. Every Command Chaplain item will be treasured as though Lt. Ethan Everts it is a precious diamond. These items are found in our dollar stores. It’s likely we have a stockpile of them in our houses. Do we pause to think about what we truly have? Are we always trying to achieve happiness by going after the next generation of an item? Why is it a child can find utter joy in a box that costs us $15 - $20, yet we mope around when first-world problems come our way? It comes down to our hearts. Are you thankful for what you have or are you focused on the negative? Are we stressed on whether or not the turkey or pies will come out perfect or are we

thankful that we even have this option? Are the annoying relatives worth getting upset over or should we look at joy they bring in our lives? With all the disasters and attacks that happened this week, the world’s problems can gobble us up quickly. Unlike the turkey, however, it is your option to be consumed by it. Psalms 100 is a psalm for giving thanks. We are to make a joyful noise to the Lord, serve the Lord with gladness and come into is presence with singing. The reason is, no matter what is happening, God is God and we are God’s. He loves us and is faithful so we should enter his presence with thanksgiving and praise. When you understand this, it is easy to be thankful. Come join us for Sunday Protestant worship services at 10:30 a.m. in the Truman Chapel. Note: there is no service this Sunday, but services will resume Nov. 29, at which time we start the celebration of Advent. If you are in need of care please call your chaplain at (305) 293-2318, Naval Air Station Key West, or (305) 292-8788, Coast Guard Sector Key West. I also want to welcome the new Coast Guard Chaplain, Lt. Jason Dart. I am thankful you are here shipmate! God bless and happy Thanksgiving!

burns, other injuries and the destruction of property. Here are some of the dangers of turkey fryers: Hot oil may splash or spill during the cooking. Contact between hot oil and skin could result in serious injury. • A hot oil spill can happen with fryers designed for outdoors using a stand. The fryer could tip over or collapse causing the hot oil to spill. • Newer countertop units using a solid base appear to reduce this risk; however, NFPA does not believe the risks of either type of turkey fryer to be

acceptable because of the large amount of hot oil involved and the speed and severity of burns. The facts are that in deep frying, oil is heated to temperatures of 350° Fahrenheit or more. Cooking oil is combustible. If it is heated above its cooking temperature, its vapors can ignite. Propane-fired turkey fryers must be used outdoors. They are very popular for Thanksgiving. Many parts of the country may have rain or snow at this time of year. If rain or snow hits the hot cooking oil, the oil may splatter or turn to steam, leading to burns. If you plan on frying a turkey, remember safety practices. Turkeys must

be completely thawed and dried of excess moisture before placing in the fryer, because a partially thawed turkey will cause the oil to splatter causing serious burns. The fryers use a lot of oil, about five gallons. Determine how much oil to use by first filling the fryer with water and dipping the turkey into the fryer. From the displacement, you can determine the amount of oil that is needed. Again, remember to dry the turkey before adding it to hot oil. Extreme caution must be taken when placing and removing the turkey from the fryer to be sure it is not dropped back into the fryer, splattering the oil on the chef.

That said, NFPA still urges those who prefer fried turkey to look for grocery stores, specialty food retailers, and restaurants that sell deep fried turkeys, or consider using a new type of oil-less turkey fryer. Cooks who plan to stay in the kitchen to prepare the holiday meal should also think safety. Here are tips to follow: • Don’t leave the kitchen when you are cooking on the stovetop - keep an eye on the food. • Keep children at least three feet away from a hot stove or oven and be careful with hot food and liquids - steam and splashes from vegetables, gravy or coffee can cause serious burns.
