NEWS AND INFORMATION FOR THE NATIONAL CAPITAL REGION

NDW is ready to weather any storm Benjamin Christensen, NDW Waterline writer Every season has its own share of destructive weather possibilities, and Naval District Washington (NDW) must constantly be aware of these possible threats, the responsibility to be always prepared, and the ability of the region’s resources to properly deal with that threat. Although one often hopes for the best, the Navy is a military organization, and one does not always fight battles in the best conditions. Therefore, preparation for any possible contingency is vital for NDW so the region can endure and recover from adverse weather conditions. As the weather changes, the potential for disruption or disaster due to destructive weather still remains ever present. Winter provides its own challenges with the potential for snow and ice damage and loss of productivity, but recent years have provided far too many examples of

the destructive power of the hurricane season, which runs roughly from June to November. "From past experience, we know the damage that [natural disasters] can cause," said Timothy Stoessel with Training and Readiness (N7). "All you have to do is look at the flood of the Naval Academy [during Hurricane Isabel in 2003] to realize the kind of damage 'All-Hazards' can inflict". Over the last two centuries, tropical cyclones have claimed the lives of approximately 1.9 million people. The United States have had its own costly reminders of the strength of hurricanes, notably in 2005 with the storm surge of Hurricane Katrina, which killed nearly two-thousand and caused 108 billion dollars worth of damage, the costliest in American history. NDW, and the Navy as a whole, considers the safety of its Sailors and their families to be the highest possible priority, especially during violent weather. Therefore, there is

a large emphasis in all Navy commands on security and accountability before, during, and after destructive weather. The Navy Family Accountability and Assessment System (NFAAS) is a key part of this accountability. The Navy uses NFAAS to account for Sailors and Navy families, as well as to identify disaster-related needs of Navy families. Sailors and their families should ensure their information is up to date in NFAAS. (NFAAS Website http://navyfamily.navy.mil) "Prudent steps taken by all hands tobepreparedfordestructiveweather phenomena that our region experiences greatly minimizes mission degradationandthepossibilityofloss of life and damage to government andpersonalproperty,"saidThompson Gerke, with NDW Operations (N3). The Navy has its own way of preparing for the possibility of the massive power of tropical cyclones: a

Bridge and sewer construction traffic info Sexual Assault: Hurts One, Affects All

Naval Support Activity Washington's (NSAW) Community Planning Liaison Officer (CPLO) and PublicWorks Department have kept in close contact with the managers of the 11th St. Bridge Project and the DC Water Clean Rivers Project Combined Sewer Overflow Control Program, clearly communicating both the needs of theYard's commuters and NSAW's operational requirements. These efforts have minimized impacts to the installation by consolidating individual construction evolutions. However, there will still be inconveniences for our commuters. There will be further impacts to vehicular and pedestrian traffic as the construction projects progress throughout the summer. We will continue to actively engage the project managers and pass information to help your employees plan their commutes. Thank you in advance for your patience and cooperation in helping us manage this issue.

by Benjamin Christensen, NDW Waterline writer With a single act a life might never be the same. Sexual assault is being brought to light as Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) begins in April. SAAM has been observed annually since 2001, and President Barack Obama first proclaimed April as SAAM in 2009. The teal ribbon is traditionally observed as the symbol for the movement. In the United States, approximately 3.7 million women are sexually assaulted each year. The Navy, along with other military branches, also suffers from unusually high prevalence of sexual assault as over 600 individuals were sexually assaulted in fiscal year 2010 alone. "To alert you to the scale of the problem, statistics indicate sexual assaults occur in our Navy on average three times a day," said Rear Adm. Denny Moynihan, Chief of Information. "This is simply unacceptable."

Chaplain's Corner:

From doubt to faith Chaplain (Cmdr.) Kieran Mandato Naval District Washington During this Easter Season for many in the world today, do they know the joy of the resurrection? The Risen Jesus revealed the glory of His resurrection to His disciples gradually and over a period of time. Even after the apostles saw the empty tomb and heard the reports of Jesus' appearance to the women, they were still weak in faith and fearful of being arrested by the Jewish authorities. When Jesus appeared to them He offered proofs of His resurrection by showing them the wounds of His passion, His pierced hands and side. He calmed their fears and brought them peace, the peace which reconciles sinners and makes one a friend of God. Jesus did something which only love and trust can do. He commissioned His weak and timid apostles to carry the Gospel to the ends of the earth. This sending out of the

disciples is parallel to the sending out of Jesus by His Father. Jesus fulfilled his mission through His perfect love and perfect obedience to the will of His Father. He called His disciples, and he calls us to do the same. Just as He gave his first disciples the gift of the Holy Spirit, so He breathes on us the same Holy Spirit who equips us with power, grace, and strength. The last apostle to meet the resurrected Lord was the first to go with Him to Jerusalem at Passover time. The apostle Thomas was a natural pessimist. When Jesus proposed that they visit Lazarus after receiving news of His illness, Thomas said to the disciples: "Let us also go, that we may die with him" (John 11:16). While Thomas deeply loved the Lord, he lacked the courage to stand with Jesus in his passion and crucifixion. After Jesus' death, Thomas made the mistake of withdrawing from the other apostles. He sought loneliness rather than fellowship in his time of adversity. He doubted the women who saw the resurrected Jesus and he doubted his own

fellow apostles. When Thomas finally had the courage to rejoin the other apostles, the Lord Jesus made His presence known to him and reassured him that He had indeed overcome death and risen again. When Thomas recognized his Master, he believed and exclaimed that Jesus was truly Lord and truly God! Through the gift of faith we, too, proclaim that Jesus is our personal Lord and our God. He died and rose that we, too, might have new life in Him. The Lord offers each of us new life in His Holy Spirit that we may know Him personally and walk in this new way of life through the power of His resurrection. Do we believe in God's word and the power of the Holy Spirit? "Lord Jesus Christ, through Your victory over sin and death You have overcome all the powers of darkness. Help us to draw near to You and to trust in Your life-giving word. Fill us with Your Holy Spirit and strengthen our faith in Your promises and my hope in the power of Your resurrection."

Expedited airport securi- Point Lookout Lighthouse ty screenings for service shines a little brighter, members at Reagan thanks to NTWL National Airport By Gary Younger NAS Patuxent River Public Affairs

By Paul Bello, JBAB Journal writer WASHINGTON -- The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has expanded its Pre-Check program to service members flying out of Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA). This means anyone on active-duty with a Common Access Card (CAC) is now eligible to receive expedited security screenings. The TSA initiative began March 20 and is also available for active drilling reservists, National Guardsmen, as well as members of the Coast Guard. To participate, service members must go to the TSA pre-check lane at the security checkpoint in the terminal and simply present their CAC to a TSA officer who will scan the card to verify their status with a DoD database. Once verified, members will not be required to remove their shoes, outerwear, and belts. Service members can also keep their laptop computers in their respective cases and their 3-1-1 compli-

ant liquids/gels in their carry-on luggage. "This initiative is part of our shift away from a one-size-fits all approach and instead toward implementing more intelligence driven, risk-based security measures," said TSA spokesperson Kawika Riley. Riley noted that eligible service members do not need to be in uniform to qualify for pre-screening benefits and that gate passes for families are also available on a case-by-case basis. He said approximately 400 active-duty members use DCA on any given day during the week. While still a pilot program, Riley said the TSA will be looking over data and will make an assessment in the future on how to expand the program to other airports around the country. The TSA pre-check will be available at Terminal B, which is the south checkpoint in DCA for Delta Airlines flyers. For more information on the expedited screening process for active-duty service members, visit www.tsa.gov.

It was once called one of the most haunted lighthouses in America, but it was the weeds that were making the Point Lookout Lighthouse look really scary. Thanks to the hard work of about a dozen people from Naval Test Wing Atlantic, the lighthouse at Point Lookout State Park looks a lot more inviting as it prepares to open its doors to the public for the season. “Normally we have about six to eight dedicated volunteers,” said Robert Hall, Pt. Lookout Lighthouse Preservation Society president. “Having the Navy come out helps us exponentially.” The volunteers from NTWL, both military and civilian, spent last Friday weeding, cleaning up sidewalks, scrubbing floors and generally making the lighthouse look better. Built in 1830, the lighthouse needs a lot of work. Since PLLPS is a private organization with few fundraising opportunities, volunteer assistance is crucial. Naval Counselor Chief Ryan Marlatt is instrumental in coordinating the com-

munity relations endeavor for NTWL. “My son, Lucas, and I volunteer here as a father and son project,” Marlatt said. Lucas, 8, had learned about the lighthouse from a former TV show entitled “Mystery Hunters.” When the Marlatt family moved to NAS Patuxent River, they happily discovered how close Point Lookout Lighthouse was. The elder Marlatt then introduced his son to volunteering and giving back to the community. “When you give Lucas a job, he sticks with it,” Hall said. “He’s got great focus.” Marlatt then arranged to broaden the effort and bring in colleagues. “I thought it would be a great way to get our office together to do some hard work outside the office,” he said. Julie Richard, civilian budget analyst with NTWL, agrees. “I think this is great,” she said, taking a break from clearing grass that was overgrowing a sidewalk. “It gets me out of the office for a bit to help out.” The PLLPS is beginning a new season in April and has open houses of the lighthouse the first weekend of each month through November.

NSWC Carderock Highlights SeaPerch, TI and Bristle Bots at the 2012 DC STEM FAIR By Nicholas Malay, NSWCCD Public Affairs Office WASHINGTON -- Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD) scientists and engineers participated in the District of Columbia Public School’s Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) Fair on Saturday, March 24. “NSWC Carderock Division’s participation in the DC STEM Fair gives us the chance to foster STEM partnerships with DC public schools and to work with our outreach partners at Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) Headquarters and other commands such as the Naval History and Heritage Command at the Washington Navy Yard,” said NSWCCD Ocean Engineer Toby Ratcliffe, an integral K-12 STEM Outreach coordinator. The DC STEM Fair provided an opportunity for 244 students from 37 K-12 public, public charter, parochial, private and home schools to showcase their research skills in math and science. Twenty six dif-

ferent organizations participated in the DC STEM Fair including NSWCCD, National Geographic, and the National Museum of the United States Navy’s (USN) Education and Public Programs Department (EPPD). NSWCCD engineers and scientists not only enjoy working with students helping them to learn naval science disciplines but they know it is also important to develop the next generation of scientists and engineers who will become the future workforce of the maritime industry. “I am here because letting kids know they have the knowledge and ability to succeed at science and math is important,” NSWCCD Corrosion and Coatings, Research and Development Team Lead Elissa Bumiller said, “Yes, some of the concepts are difficult, but through working with hands-on projects they can more easily understand how to wire a circuit to run a bristle bot, they can learn how to program the TI bot [Calculator –controlled ro-

Naval Histor y and Heritage Command Seminars

The Naval History and Heritage Command hosts a series seminars for which historians select basic readings that will cover major trends, wars, battles, policies, and technologies across the chronological span of the U.S. Navy's history and facilitate discussion on the readings and their implications. Each one-hour seminar starts at noon in the National Museum of the United States Navy's Museum Education Center, Building 76, Washington Navy Yard. The topics for each seminar are listed below: April 11 - Professional Reading - A historical work from the Navy Professional Reading program. May 23 - War of 1812 - What was the strategic value of the U.S. Navy during the War of 1812? June 20 - Navy Leadership - How did the personalities of its leaders affect the Navy's performance in World War II and the Cold War?

Reminder: Nav y civilian employees must verif y MyBiz information by May 1

The Department of the Navy will begin the process of converting paper-based personnel records, which contain records that cover an employee’s work history, to electronic files. This is a part of the DON’s effort to implement eOPFs across the enterprise. Converting to eOPFs will not only maximize available technology, it will also enable immediate 24/7 access for employees, hiring managers and human resource professionals to critical personnel documents online through a secure internet connection. Employees must ensure they have entered their correct email address into their DCPDS records via MyBiz prior to May 1. This must be done on a secure DON network (NMCI).

Veteran's Helper: Wounded Warrior's weekly source for federal employment assistance How do I get a non-law enforcement job? Q: IamabouttobemedicallyretiredfromaninfantryMOS[Military OccupationalSpecialty]andIreallywanttogetintosomethingdifferent. Many pals of mine have tried to break into intel and law enforcement but I want to do something totally unrelated.I realize not every job out there has you carrying a gun and shooting bad guys.I am actually pretty sick of that.How do I position myself for something different? I am open to lots of fields and wouldn’t even mind working at a desk job. A: It’s refreshing to hear of someone in your position who doesn’t want to go into law enforcement or intel: those are two of the most commonly requested career paths for vets. I certainly understand why: you have been trained to understand and execute those sorts of roles if you spent any time in an infantry MOS. A whole world of opportunity is open to you if you are willing to try something outside your comfort zone. Your resume is the first stop on the road to a new career. In order for maximum marketability, you need to highlight the skills you have developed in the military which match the field you would like to break into. Let’s say that you are good with numbers and can envision yourself working with budgets. Front and center on your resume are words like “accountability”,“metrics”,“tracking”,“allocation” and other terms which apply to the position you are targeting. I am sure that you honed skills in analysis, presentation creation, and are able to meet deadlines or function under austere conditions, being mindful of process, safety, teamwork and to accomplish mission objectives. Those traits translate to pretty much any job and should therefore be the focus of the first few lines of your resume. Anything you want a hiring manager to know should be easy to see and read, eye catching, prominent and relevant. Don’t bury important stuff in the body of your resume as you detail your experience with a variety of weapons. Focus on what applies to your chosen field. Use the same strategy for your interview. Make matches between work you did that may (at first) seem unrelated, but required development of abilities which apply to the position you are interviewing for. Be honest about your experience level but make solid connections. Don’t spend time saying “Wow, I never did that.” Find something you DID do that was similar and show why you fit. Good luck!

Pearl Harbor Christmas: A World at War, December 1941 Book review Reviewed by Cmdr. Youssef Aboul-Enein, MSC, USN Pearl Harbor Christmas: A World at War, December 1941 by Stanley Weintraub. Published DaCapo Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts. 224 pages,2011. Published on Pearl Harbor Day 2011, award-winning historian and author Stanley Weintraub has written an account of the eleven days in which the United States observed the holidays right after December 7, 1941. In the opening parts of the book it discusses the prelude to war and how Prime MinisterWinston Churchill would arrange to travel to the United States that month spending the Christmas holidays in talks with President Franklin Roosevelt. Weintraub begins with December 22, 1941 and ends with January 1, 1942, each date representing a chapter in the book and explores what was occurring in Europe and Asia during this time. The book mainly focuses on the discussions between Churchill and Roosevelt, and the need to align the common strategy towards defeating Germany first. Readers will see how Churchill set up a map room in the White House that so impressed Roosevelt he had one installed in a ladies powder and rest room. During the time Churchill was preparing to address Congress, the Germans were grappling with the arrival of winter in Russia that was slowing the progress of the Wehrmacht (the German Army); in Asia the Japanese Army were pushing through Malaya towards Singapore. You will learn of personal touches like

Eleanor Roosevelt making preparations for the British delegation, and how the British dignitaries were not used to such delicacies as real eggs, as many in England were on rations and ate powdered eggs. The nation’s founding documents would be crated on December 23rd for a trip to Fort Knox for deep storage, these documents would not return to Washington D.C until 1944. The Prime Minister’s delegation were unused to a fully lit city, and the Christmas Tree being lit at theWhite House as Londoners had been the victim of the German air raids, known as “The Blitz,” and mandatory blackouts were a nightly occurrence. The book also recounts Churchill’s minor stroke that he concealed as he was set to address a joint session of Congress. It was only after Churchill’s death in 1965 that his physician revealed this. As you read, you will gain a sense of the many things that were done in the space of 24 hours, and what is extraordinary is to remember that President Roosevelt was wheelchair bound. The book is very critical of General Douglas MacArthur, who assured President Roosevelt that he had it under control and had to abandon the Philippines for the rock of Corregidor, this despite having the forewarning of the Pearl Harbor attack on December 7, 1941. It is an interesting and timely book published during the 70th anniversary of Pearl Harbor. If you enjoyed this book, read Stanley Weintraub’s “15 Stars, Eisenhower, MacArthur, Marshall:Three GeneralsWho Saved the American Century,” (Free Press, 2007). “Pearl Harbor Christmas,” is also available on audio book. Editor’s Note: Commander Aboul-Enein teaches part-time at the Industrial College of the Armed Forces in Washington D.C. He maintains a regular non-fiction book column in the NDW newspaper,Waterline.

STEM Continued from 4 bots], they can learn how the SeaPerch moves and how to control it.” Students get their first taste of how engineers use mathematics and science in designing, building, and testing ships, boats, and submarines by building and operating their SeaPerch projects. SeaPerch is a national outreach effort that engages middle and high school students with science and engineering concepts by allowing them to design and

build underwater remotely operated vehicles. Sprawled out on the gymnasium floor surrounded by TI and Bristle bots, and SeaPerch projectsXiu Chen, an Alice Deal Middle School eighth grader, who has visited Carderock recently at the 2012 Mathcounts Contest said that her favorite aspect of STEM is learning about what scientists have to offer to the next generation. An essential component of SeaPerch is teacher training. Teachers participate in a two-day training program to “teach the teachers” how to build the SeaPerch, and also dis-

cuss curriculum. After teacher training, SeaPerch is built into the curriculum allowing students to learn about principles such as: buoyancy, propulsion, design, electrical, water proofing, tool safety and usage, while also learning about career possibilities that could in turn become a reality for many students across America. For more information about SeaPerch, please visit: www.seaperch.org, where students and teachers can blog, post video and pictures, and view training video segments of the build process.

Lt. Cmdr. Qureshi, DC Hub and Cmdr. Breeden, Norfolk Hub pose for a photo on a flight to Afghanistan. Editor's Note: This week's submission is part 1 of 2 and was graciously sent to the Waterline by Lt. Cmdr. Ahmed Qureshi, COMISAF Advisory and Assistance Team, Kabul, Afghanistan. Check back next week for the 2nd part of his submission! Another group of Navy Afghan Hands COIN advisors have completed training and arrived in Afghanistan. Cohort 3C, comprised of eight Sailors, six from D.C. and two from Norfolk, arrived safely at Bagram Airfield, Afghanistan from Manas Air Base, Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, on March 29, 2012. Their arrival was preceded by a lengthy five months training program which culminated with a end of February final exam in Dari and a capstone exercise held at the Defense Language Institute, Washington DC in Rosslyn, Virginia. A total of 14 Dari language students, five of them Navy, took part in the exercise.

STORM Continued from 1 yearly exercise called HURREX/Citadel Gale. This year, HURREX 2012 will run from April 16 to 27. All commands participate in the exercise, as everyone is potentially affected by destructive weather. "HURREX/Citadel Gale is the Navy's exercise to prepare for the annual hurricane season," said Stoessel. "We have an All-Hazardsplanwhichincludes weather, and we use this exercise to get ready prior to June." HURREX/Citadel Gale 2012 will involve two simulated storm systems developing and intensifying to hurricane strength, threatening the Caribbean Islands, East Coast and Gulf Coast regions. The Navy will focus on training under five "conditions of readiness" that start at four days beforeastormhitsandprogresses all the way up to 12 hours prior. Although the exercise does not involve any real movement of ships or aircraft, the exercise is designed to be as real as possible. Commander, Task Force 20 will simulate a sortie, and Sailors ashore and afloat, in port or underway will

review their heavy weather instructions and procedures. According to Stoessel, even though the training and testing procedure is an annual fixture, there is always more to gain from the repetition of exercises like HURREX/Citadel Gale. "There are always lessons learned every year, especially on how to communicate better with commands and the local community," said Stoessel. With proper preparation and training, the dangers of destructive weather can be mitigated, and this year is no different. It is everyone's responsibility to ensure the safety of equipment, and more importantly, Sailors and their families. The Naval Safety Center has information on preparing for destructive weather which can be found at www.public .navy.mil/navsafecen/Documents/media/safetips/f-m/ hurricane.doc.

Spring Break Maritime Adventure Camp

US Navy photo by MC2 Gina K. Morrissette

Laura Hockensmith, Deputy Director of Education and Public Programs at the National Museum of the United States Navy, teaches students how to build hand made parachutes during the museums first ever Spring Break Maritime Adventure Camp. Hosted by the National Museum of the United States Navy, the five-day camp offers children between the ages of 8-12 years old educational lessons based on themes such as maritime/naval history and science. Children also have the opportunity to participate in a variety of different activities, including building and testing straw rockets, conducting simulated air plane ejections using hand made miniature parachutes and constructing catapults. Open to military and civilian employees onboard the Washington Navy yard, more than 50 children are participating in this year's Spring Break Camp.

ASSAULT Continued from 1 SAAM in the Navy looks to break down the barriers around talking about an admittedly uncomfortable topic by discussing the issue around 4 themes: Hurts One, Affects All, Prevention is Everyone's Duty, and We Will Not Tolerate Sexual Assault. Sailors will attend educational standdowns throughout the month, and a multitude of events will be taking place throughout NDW. This week, particular focus is being put on the effect sexual assault has on the individual, the victim, of sexual assault. The individual victim can be anyone, and no one is immune because of gender or any other factors. Besides the obvious physical trauma of an assault, the emotional effects can be far-reaching and devastating. According to the Pennsylvania Council Against Rape, effects can include denial, helplessness, dislike of sex, anger, self-blame, anxiety, shame, nightmares, fear, depression, flashbacks, guilt, rationalization, mood-swings, numbness, promiscuity, loneliness, social anxiety, difficulty trusting oneself or others, and difficulty concentrating. These effects can last for years, and in some cases, the rest of one's life. "We are committed to preventing sexual assault, and we are dedicated to ensuring victims of sexual assault have access to the resources they need, to include medical care, counseling, criminal investigation support and much more," said Commander, Navy Installations CommandVice Adm.William D. French. The emphasis on the individual this week is to ensure that all Sailors know, no matter whom they are, that the victims of sexual assaults "are their shipmates". It is unrealistic for one to assume that sexual assault is not their problem since it affects those shipmates, and by extension, his or herself. "Our Navy has made good progress over the years in reducing sexual assaults, but we're still not where we need to be," said NDW Command Master Chief Leland Moore. "GMT's, standdowns, and awareness of resources available such as hotline numbers and command SAPR's will help Sailors be prepared to act in preventing sexual assaults."

What is your drinking IQ? Chief of Naval Personnel, Sailors Leigh Houck, Health Educator, Branch Health Clinic WNY When it comes to alcohol consumption, how much is too much? Every year, millions of Americans—1 in every 13 adults—suffer from alcohol abuse or alcohol dependence. Millions more drink at times or in ways that can place themselves or others at risk. Military personnel and their families may be particularly susceptible to alcohol misuse because of the unique stresses associated with military life. A 2009 study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the University of Minnesota revealed that 43% percent of active-duty military personnel report binge drinking in the last 30 days. “Occasional alcohol use can cause few, if any, problems. However, at-risk or heavy drinking can impact all aspects of a service member’s life, including health and family,” says Lt Col Hans Ritschard, Force Health Protection & Readiness Programs, Director of Psychological Health Strategic Operations. “Screening is the first step in assessing whether someone should reduce alcohol consumption or get help in doing so.” To help those who may be struggling, the Branch Health ClinicWashington NavyYard is offering self-assessments onThursday, April 5, 2012 from 0730 -1330 at the clinic, Building 175. The screening is also available online 24 hours a day, seven days a week at www.DrinkingIQ.org. After completing the

brief self-assessment about alcohol use and behaviors, service members will receive referral information including services provided by TRICARE, Military OneSource andVet Centers. In addition to offering alcohol questionnaires, the clinic will be providing free sports water bottles with the message:“Do you know your drinking IQ?” Signs that you, a friend or a loved one may have an alcohol problem: • Drinking to calm nerves, forget worries or boost a sad mood • Guilt about drinking • Unsuccessful attempts to cut down/stop drinking • Lying about or hiding drinking habits • Causing harm to oneself or someone else as a result of drinking • Needing to drink increasingly greater amounts in order to achieve desired effect • Feeling irritable, resentful or unreasonable when not drinking • Medical, social, family or financial problems caused by drinking Alcohol screenings are a part of Military Pathways®, a voluntary, anonymous mental health and alcohol self-assessment and referral program offered to military families and service members affected by deployment. It is offered online and via the telephone 24/7, as well as through in-person events. This program is part of the Department of Defense continuum of care, and is fully funded by Force Health Protection and Readiness, Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense, Health Affairs.

recognized for volunteer work

By Chief of Naval Personnel Public Affairs WASHINGTON (NNS) -- Chief of Naval Personnel was honored for his command's volunteer efforts during a Naval District Washington Regional Community Service Program awards presentation March 27 at Naval Support Facility Arlington, Va. During the ceremonyVice Adm. ScottVan Buskirk accepted theWorld ofThanks Award, which recognizes commands and organizations that made a significant contribution in the coordination of a Naval DistrictWashington Community Service projects. "I'm constantly impressed - in fact, awed - by the service and dedication of the Sailors I have the privilege to lead,"Van Buskirk said. In a one year period, from July 2010 to June 2011,Van Buskirk said nearly 240 volunteers in his command completed more than 2,270 hours of community service, supporting a number of diverse projects and touching the lives of almost 20,000 people. Some of those projects included leading a holiday donation drive and summer backpack drive that raised more than 400 pounds of food for the Arlington Food Assistance Center. Volunteers also participated in Operation USO Care Package on Fort Belvoir, which put together more than 8,500 care packages for service members overseas, and volunteered more than 500 hours in the Washington, D.C. scouting program. Chief of Naval Personnel Sailors also gave their time to help with last summer's D.C. Special Olympics and conducted a blood drive at the Navy Annex. In addition to the award for the entire command, five individual Sailors were recognized for their individual contributions with the Inspire by Example Award.The award recognizes those Sailors who display a selflessness and strong commitment to helping the military family, encouraging team work and inspiring others to volunteer.

"The project that has been the most rewarding thus far has been our Future Leaders Club at the Arlington Career Center (ACC)," said Myers. "It's important to give back and impact today's youth, our future, and serving as positive role models they can emulate." The Chief of Naval Personnel signed a formal partnership with the ACC in April 2010. Through the partnership, Navy volunteers hold individual and group mentoring sessions with students, provide lectures, lead practical exercises, and act as guest speakers with the goal of equipping students them with the skills to be college-bound. The ACC serves nearly 1,100 students each day. "You truly serve as an example to us all of what can be accomplished when you dedicate your time, creativity and energy in serving others," Van Buskirk said.
