Apprentices ready to work
Latest class of college-shipyard program graduates with flying colors By Tom James tjames@kitsapnavynews.com
The applause was loud, steady, and sometimes raucous Friday night as graduates from the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility’s apprentice program took the stage last Friday night to receive their diplomas. Joining the ranks of journeymen in their chosen trade, each of the 162 graduates shook hands with program heads including PSNS Commander Mark Whitney and Rear Admiral Richard Berkey, Pacific Fleet’s
Deputy Chief of Staff for Fleet Maintenance. The class of 162 was the latest in a series of growing classes, and the last to enroll less than 200, said Apprentice Association President Dan Timmons. According to Bryan Watland, administrator of the apprentice program, 207 students are currently on track to graduate in 2012. Spilling out into the lobby of the Bremerton High School auditorium after the ceremony, graduates shared common experience, and a few pieces of advice for future apprentices. “The hardest was keeping the end in sight and staying focused,” said Brittany Wildblood, who carried her infant son Dante onstage to receive her award, “the easiest was showing up.” “I had some tough times in the apprenticeship,” said Juan Palau. To those just entering the program, he said, “help for struggling students is there.” Dan Timmons, Apprentice Association president, said one point of pride for this
year’s class should be that they maintained a grade point average higher than the national average for college students in traditional academic programs. Watland said the 2011 class GPA was 3.70. All of the apprentices were initially selected out of the shipyard’s Helper Program, Timmons said. After selection, the students entered into the apprentice program proper. Watland described the partnership between Olympic College and the shipyard as a “cooperative education apprenticeship model.” Some staff in the program, Watland said, are shipyard employees, while those that teach purely academic disciplines are employed by the college. While working at the shipyard, students have access to staff and facilities at both institutions. Some classes, Watland said, also have non-essential “creative” components cut to tailor them to the technical nature of the apprentice program and fit

Competing to raise awareness NBK golf tournament kicks off energy awareness month Tom James tjames@kitsapnavynews/com
Cigar smoke rolled over emerald knolls and hands were plunged into murky ponds last Friday, as employees and active duty personnel took to the greens for the fourth annual Naval Base Kitsap Employee’s Energy Awareness Golf Tournament. Turning up at the crack of 7:30, about 49 participants spread out across the 18-hole course for a “shotgun start,” all starting to play simultaneously on different holes. In addition to their scores, each team of four players was given a multiple-choice test focusing on facts about energy usage. For each wrong answer a team got, a stroke was added to their overall score, said Jim Gisselberg, an organizer of the event. “If somebody wants to take it seriously, that’s fine,” said Gisselberg. “But it’s intended just to be a fun day to get out and give a little schpiel about energy.” Tournament winners Rodney Eligen, Wayne Masino, Gerald Gonia and Ryan Butts were upbeat after receiving their awards, which included small trophies and efficiency-themed merchandise. Eligen said they’d been playing together for years, but hadn’t won anything before. The team scored 68, four under par for the course, after they were docked three strokes for wrong answers on the quiz. “We’ll be back, because now we’ve got to defend,” said butts. “But we’ve got to work on our answers for the test.” Eligen said he had learned something from the last year’s tournament, and from this year’s as well. That learning, said Gisselberg, is what the tournament is all about. Gisselberg, a resource efficiency manager at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, said the event was one of many his employer, RJD Technologies, puts for the Navy as part of its contract to provide energy audits and increase energy awareness at navy bases throughout Navy Region Northwest.

Earlier in the year, employees from the same group, as part of the Naval Base Kitsap Energy Team, put on other outreach events, including tabling around the region to increase energy awareness. The tournament, Gisselberg said, was the largest so far. In all, participants took about four hours to navigate the course, and most finished with scores close to par. On the energy quiz, the big stumpers of the day concerned what percentage of fuel efficiency is lost for every mile-per-hour of speed over 55 (two percent), which U.S. sector uses the most energy (the federal government), and what thermal mass is (materials that act as heat reservoirs). Chris Sample, who works with Gisselberg at the shipyard and helped organize the tournament, said the organizers figured most people on the course had smart phones, and might have gotten a little outside help on the answers. “But that’s ok,” Sample said. “It’s more about getting their awareness up than trying to stump them.” “For most of them it’s another reminder,” Gisselberg said. “With this kind of thing it’s constant reminders. I even

find that with my family.” Gisselberg said numbers in previous years had ranger from 100 participants to only thirty, the latter when it rained on the day of the tournament. Forty-nine, he said, was a good turnout he was happy with. Out on the course, players confirmed that a good time with friends was what it was all about. Todd Bolden, an engineer and technician at PSNS, said it was his second year at the tournament. “I’m here because of this guy,” he said of his coworker and golf teammate Chris Murphy, “I love this guy.” “If you want to use a word,” Bolden said as he climbed into his golf cart, “it’s camaraderie.” With that and the clicking and whirring of electric motors, Bolden and his team zipped away to the next hole.
Navy Inns get Medal of honor recipient issues scholarship challenge five stars By Terri Moon Cronk American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, SEPT. 28, 2011 – Medal of Honor recipient Marine Corps Sgt. Dakota Meyer plans to raise $1 million in scholarship money for the children of wounded Marines and Navy corpsmen, and challenges the American public to match it. Meyer announced his “Sergeant Dakota Meyer Scholarship,” a $2 million scholarship matching initiative, at the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation 2011 Ceremony and Reception, here, Sept. 13, two days before President Barack Obama presented him with the Medal of Honor in a White House ceremony.
“My entire Marine Corps career was about challenges and meeting that challenge,” Meyer said in an interview with MarinesTV. “So what I decided to do was challenge myself to raise $1 million for the scholarship fund initiative, and I’m challenging America to match -- dollar for dollar -- what I can bring into the fund.” Meyer recently partnered with the foundation to form his initiative and raise the $1 million plus matching funds by the foundation’s 50th anniversary on May 28, 2012. “I chose to partner with the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation on this initiative because of our common mission of supporting Marines and Navy corpsmen families,” Meyer
Time to verify, Navy wants contact info MILLINGTON, TENN. (NNS) -- Navy is currently conducting a semi-annual Navy Family Accountability and Assessment System (NFAAS) verification requiring all Navy personnel to verify and update their personal contact information in NFAAS, officials said Sept. 27. “We cannot stress enough the importance of maintaining the most accurate and up-to-date contact information in NFAAS,” said Fred Chambers, director, Customer Relations Management at Navy
Personnel Command. “It is not only beneficial to those of us running NFAAS, but extremely beneficial to personnel because it can help determine how quickly they will receive assistance during a disaster.” NFAAS is used to account, manage, and monitor the recovery process for Navy personnel and their families affected by wide-spread catastrophic events. It was most recently used to account for more than 300,000 Navy personnel and families affected by Hurricane Irene
said. “Education paves the path for our future, and the money we raise will lead to a brighter future for the sons and daughters of many Marines.” Meyer’s challenge to the public to raise a matching $1 million is to honor Marines and Navy corpsmen by educating their children, foundation officials said. Outlining his call to the public for matching scholarship donations, Meyer set up the “Dakota Meyer Challenge” website. The Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation is the nation’s oldest and largest provider of need-based scholarships to U.S. military families, and has provided 26,500 scholarships valued at more than $65 million for the post-high school
education of children of wounded Marines and Navy corpsmen, according to its website. Meyer, the nation’s most recent recipient of the Medal of Honor, is credited with saving 37 lives in a six-hour firefight following an enemy ambush on U.S. and Afghan troops in the Ganjgal Valley of Kunar province, Afghanistan, Sept. 8, 2009, when he was a corporal. The nation’s highest military honor, the Medal of Honor is awarded for risk of life in combat beyond the call of duty. Meyer is the third living service member to receive the Medal of Honor for actions during the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
and 40,000 Navy personnel and families affected by the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. Outdated contact information can delay Navy’s ability to account for and assist affected personnel. NAVADMIN 275/11 requires all active-duty and Reserve Sailors and Department of the Navy civilian employees to log in to https://navyfamily.mil to verify and update contact information for themselves and their dependents. Navy contractors outside the continental United States are also required to complete the assessment. All verifications must be completed by Oct. 31. Commanding officers are responsible to ensure compliance with this verification. NFAAS officials will submit the names of commands not
in compliance to the office of the chief of naval operations for review. The message also directs commands to incorporate NFAAS updates into the command check-in and check-out process during permanent change of station move. Ensuring NFAAS accuracy can assist commanding officers in carrying out their mission after a wide-spread catastrophic event according to Chambers. “It allows commanding officers or regional commanders to quickly assess the command’s ability to perform their mission.”
FROM PRESS RELEASES – Last month, Navy Gateway Inns & Suites (NGIS) Smokey Point, underwent a surprise region-wide, week-long accreditation inspection. At the end of the week, they received the top five-star accreditation rating. “This is a well-run operation,” commented the CNIC accreditation team. “The staff’s attitude is exceptional while providing stellar service to each and every guest.” The Admiral Zumwalt Accreditation Program occurs every two years for every NGIS worldwide. The accreditation scope of review has two categories: Direct Guest Impact and Administration. Direct Guest Impact not only looks at housekeeping/custodial services and general room requirements but also involves conducting interviews with staff members and random guests. The other scope of review, Administration; includes
personnel management, financial management, management functions, and logistics management. The purpose of the Admiral Zumwalt Accreditation Program is to encourage improvements and operational success. “Next year, we will replace existing furniture and modernize all spaces,” said Roberto Cui, NGIS general manager. The Admiral Zumwalt Accreditation Program, a Secretary of the Navy award, recognizes excellence in lodging management. The goal is to significantly improve customer service, financial management, operations, facilities, and the overall lodging experience for all guests. “In March, NGIS Smokey Point, will receive the award in San Diego along with all Five Star award recipients from around the globe who were on the same accreditation cycle as us,” said Cui.

Police yourself The growing situation with the Kitsap 9/11 Memorial Committee and its perceived abilities to operate the type of organization required to handle an estimated $2 million project plus untold incidental expenses, built on donations, needs to be cleaned up quickly. If for no other reason than to honor those in whose name the memorial is to be built, the organization must purse an accountable standard of operation that is both open and understandable to the public that will pay for it through donations, gifts of service or indirect taxation. In several key instances, the Committee has been seen to the public as emotional, misguided and perhaps closed off from community wants as well as criticized for the over tenor of the memorial. To date, the only design concept and message presented to the public was created by local firefighter community. That design was roundly defeated and sent back for a specific level of community involvement, which has been slow to materialize as prescribed in a later agreement between REG the City of Bremerton and the Memorial Committee. KINNER With new questions about organization focus, lack of established priorities and use of finances emerging so close to the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in New York, comes additional pressure to honor the citizens of Kitsap County, the 9/11 dead, and their families, on the East Coast and the thousands of local service members and veterans that continually support the memorial project in spirit, personal presence and through donations. We believe that the Memorial Committee can honor their commitments by sticking to agreements with the city and opening their books, meetings, designs and overall mission to the entire Kitsap County community.

Wedding bands: size does matter This summer, Dustin lost his wedding band in the Penobscot River at the base of Mt. Katahdin. I give him credit for keeping it as long (12 years) as he did. A person who loses just one shoe on a regular basis can not be expected to keep up with a 5 mm piece of gold. Interestingly, however, it took only one month for Dustin to forget that he needed a replacement. I seemed to be the only one with “get new wedding band” at the top of my To-Do list. Once the kids were back in school, we made a date of it. Naturally, memories arose of our first time. We were living in Pensacola, Fla., and we bought our rings at a small, local jeweler downtown. We had always intended to have them engraved, but depending on who you ask, that never happened. (Dustin feels certain his first ring was engraved. Not likely since mine is not. But I’m not diving into the Penobscot to prove my point.) I remember eating Mexican food for lunch afterward and strolling down Palafox Street hand-in-hand. Our second trip was not so leisurely. Lindell would be out of preschool by 11:30 a.m., and Dustin still had to go to work. Going to buy a wedding band seemed more like a necessity than an event. We walked into the jeweler and found the case filled with men’s rings. There, Dustin picked out what seemed to be the first thing he saw. Let me backtrack and tell you that Dustin’s old ring was completely ordinary. Dustin, you could argue, is ordinary. His closet is filled with striped

shirts in various shades of blue. He never wears anything AVY besides plain jeans (always the same cut; always the same ISE shade of denim) or khaki pants. He has had the same brown ARAH leather belt since he was 21. MILEY Going to buy shoes with Dustin is a mild form of torture. He tries on every shoe at every store in the entire city, deliberates for weeks, then, ultimately, ends up buying a pair that looks and fits exactly like his old pair. And he never throws anything away (well, except for his wedding ring). Rows of identical, old shoes line our basement and garage. Because “you never know when you might need a pair of old shoes to mow the lawn.” Every Halloween Dustin wears the same costume: Where’s Waldo. So forgive me when I tell you that I laughed out loud at the ring Dustin first chose. It was thick, with squared sides and modern etching. The model on the poster was young, hip and dressed in all black. “What, you don’t think it’s ‘me’?” Dustin asked when he saw my shock. I nudged him toward the style I knew— because I’ve been shoe-shopping with him—he’d ultimately end up with: the one that looks just like the old ring. “Do you think those look like something I’d wear?” he asked.

‘Team Mullen,’ troops’ about service, sacrifices By Jim Garamone American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, SEPT. 29, 2011 – As “Team Mullen,� Navy Adm. Mike Mullen and his wife, Deborah, have championed the needs of service members and their families during the admiral’s four years as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The chairman is the principal military advisor to the president, vice president, secretary of state and secretary of defense. Mullen turns over the chairmanship to Army Gen. Martin E. Dempsey tomorrow. The Mullens have worked as a team to tell senior U.S. government officials, members of Congress, and influential business and civic leaders around the country about the efforts and sacrifices made by U.S. service members and their families, and how the public can connect with them. They also worked to improve military family programs, to improve care for wounded warriors, and, especially, to reach out to the families of those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Much of this went on mostly behind the scenes as operations in Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya captured the headlines. The chairman found time for these personnel issues, even as he wrestled with budgetary pressures, “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell� repeal, a change in administrations, the Quadrennial Defense Review and countless other programs that demanded his attention. The admiral and his wife spoke about their interest in the well-being of service members, their families and veterans during a recent interview. The Mullens are, of course, a military family -- the admiral was commissioned in 1968 after attending the U.S. Naval Academy. Their two sons are also serving in the
Navy. But understanding the stress the wars have put on families was key in elevating their interest. Early in his tenure, Mullen and his wife traveled to three Army posts and an Army event in Denver. At Denver, “I stood in front of my very first group of Army spouses and I told them that I knew next to nothing about the Army and I asked them to educate me about their lives -- tell me about being an Army spouse,� Deborah Mullen said. They did, and Mrs. Mullen still corresponds with some of the spouses from that meeting. “It was the beginning of a long time of learning about not just the Army, but the other services and what they had gone

through up to that point,� she said. In 2007, many military spouses already had seen their husbands or wives head off for one or two year-long deployments. The admiral’s wife said the other military spouses told her about what the strain of deployments meant to their families. They spoke of spouses learning new jobs, she said, which meant new uncertainties to their families. They spoke of the need for new programs and facilities to handle these new stresses. “[What] these spouses were experiencing was something entirely different, and that was a year with their loved ones in harm’s way, every day,� Mrs. Mullen said. The Mullens’ goal was to find ways to make dif-

ferences for these families, but they did not want to step on the toes of the service military leaders. “We don’t see ourselves as activists, but as advocates for those who have carried the burden,� the admiral said. “This has been in our heart and soul forever. It’s frankly why we stayed in the
military, because of the people.� The two wars and the long deployments have highlighted the roles of military families. Ten years ago, few military or civilian leaders discussed family matters. Today, it is rare for a senior military or civilian leader to not mention fami-

lies. First lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden, the wife of Vice President Joe Biden, have been very involved in reaching out to military families. “That’s critical,� Mullen said. “It has a way of focusing everybody and making it a priority and

Mullen: learn from mistakes and move on By Donna Miles American Forces Press Service
ANNAPOLIS, MD., 2011 – The top military officer returned to his alma mater last night to tell future Navy leaders not to fear failure, but rather to learn from their mistakes and grow. “We are all going to fall on our faces now and then,� Navy Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told midshipmen at the U.S. Naval Academy here during a Forrestal Lecture series address. “And the measure really is, how do you get up off the deck, how do you dust yourself off and how do you look to the future?� To illustrate, Mullen shared his own story of an earlycareer failure, and how he ultimately rose above it. Back in early 1973, when he was 26 years old and just five years out of Annapolis, friends had counseled then Lt. Mullen against taking command of USS Noxubee, a Vietnam-era gasoline tanker. It was too risky, Mullen said they warned him. Many of his peers chose a “quieter path,� avoiding command positions for jobs that kept them farther below the radar screen. But that wasn’t for Mullen. “It was high-risk� to take the command, he acknowledged.
“But from my perspective, taking that risk was more than worth it.� For the first two months, Mullen felt good about his decision. Things were going smoothly until his ship struck Buoy 11 along the Thimble Shoals Channel in the lower Chesapeake Bay. “When you are on a ship and you are a [commanding officer], colliding with anything� is not a good thing, Mullen told the midshipmen. The Navy wasn’t amused. Mullen’s evaluation, written shortly after the incident, blamed his “misjudgment of the ship’s characteristics and lack of appreciation for the prevailing tide/current conditions� for causing the accident. “This misjudgment may be attributed to his youth and lack of experience,� the evaluation said. “Those lines haunted me for a long time,� Mullen said. “It was the first time I had really failed at anything, and it was tough to come to grips with. “At that point in time, my career took a nosedive,� he said, “and I fell behind for a long time.� Mullen said it took 11 years for his career to fully recover. He credited his mentors, commanders and captains who “saw something in me that gave me hope for the future.�
PSNS | FROM PAGE 1 them into the schedule. Based on quarters just six weeks long, the program operates on a unique - and uniquely demanding schedule, said math teacher Mike Burton, an Olympic College math professor who teaches in the program. Each quarter is broken into twoweek blocks: two in class followed by two on the job, then two more in class. In the four weeks that he has with them, said Burton, each class of apprentices has to cover algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. For the students, many of whom are coming back into math after a multi-year break, it’s almost always challenging, sometimes extremely. Traditional academic quarters, Burton said, last 10-11 weeks. The accelerated timeframe is also challenging for teachers, Burton said, noting that some of his OC colleagues had passed up opportunities to work with the program because of it. If a particular class just isn’t picking a subject up, he
said, he has to think on his feet, adapting his teaching to their learning styles. “I have to get from here to here, and it’s a challenge,� Burton said. Burton said he also thought at least part of the challenge was intentional. “They want to see that they’re tough,� said Burton, adding that the shipyard invests “several hundred thousand dollars� in instruction in each apprentice student by the time they graduate. After the six-week block is over, apprentices spend what for normal college students would be the second half of the academic quarter putting what they’ve learned to use on the job. In all, the program takes eight or nine quarters to complete, Timmons said. “Basically, an apprentice completes a standard college quarter in twenty academic days,� Watland said. “We refer to it as a ‘compressed schedule.’ But they work their tails off.� Still, Watland denied that the schedule was intended

DOD PHOTO BY U.S. NAVY PETTY OFFICER 1ST CLASS CHAD J. MCNEELEY. Mullen went on to other command positions, rising to become chief of naval operations and, ultimately, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Looking back, as he prepares to retire from the highest military post, Mullen said the biggest take-away from
his experience aboard the Noxubee wasn’t that he failed, but that he was able to recover and continue a successful military career. “One of the messages with respect to that is, we are not a zero-defect Navy. We were not then, and we are not now,� he told the audience.
In fact, the Navy -- and in a broader sense, the military as a whole -- rewards persistence and performance, he said. “I’m not saying ‘Seek failure here and you will do okay,’� Mullen said. “That’s not the case. But it does happen. We are all human.� Mullen challenged the
midshipmen to think about failure, and when they face it, how they will work to overcome it. “It’s how you get up and it’s how you move ahead, and it’s how you prepare to do that,� he said.
to “weed out� students. Students failing one class, he said, could clear it from their record by retaking it on their own time. All students have access to five tutoring programs, Watland said. Although the 2011 class had a 15% attrition rate, Watland said, only 2% of that was due to grades falling below he program’s 2.5 minimum GPA. The remaining 13% Watland attributed to the changes in plans and circumstances of a student body whose average age on entry is 28. Chris Krueger, who graduated Sept. 23 as a rigger, said the academic requirements were definitely a challenge. At 24, Kreuger said, the hardest thing about the whole program was “getting back into that school headspace.� “I was scared when I first got into the program,� Krueger said, not least of all at the idea of sitting down in a classroom again. Still, Kreuger said, having a concrete goal to work toward made it easy to find the
motivation to hit the books as an older student. Kreuger said the alternating schedule, with weeks devoted to work either on or off the job, removed what he though would have been a challenge of having to try to manage both. The best part about his experience in the program, Kreuger said, was that it proved he could do anything he set his mind to. “It made made me suc-
cessful and made me proud of what I’ve achieved,� said Kreuger. In total, Watland said, the program takes four years to complete. Three of those years include quarterly academic work. The fourth, Watland said, is spent working in their selected field full-time. Dan Haas, a 1980 pipefitter graduate of the program who as part of the Friday ceremony was inducted into
the Apprentice Hall of Fame, said after the event that he thought the program, and particularly its partnership with Olympic College, were essential to keeping the shipyard competitive in tight economic times. Critical thinking and problem solving are critical to success in the trades - “That’s how you make money, when you’ve got to do more with less,� said Haas.

COMPLAINTS | FROM PAGE 1 Committee. Last Wednesday, Stauff spoke a little louder when, before the Bremerton City Council, as she addressed the reasons behind her resignation – communication and a lack of budget. “I didn’t want any impropriety in anything I was responsible for,” Stauff later said. Stauff became involved with the memorial project when she helped at the Committee’s March auction fundraiser and attended her first meeting the next month. The previous treasurer gave Stauff all bookkeeping files at the end of June and she officially assumed her duties as treasurer on Aug. 1 just as a new bank account for the memorial was activated. She resigned from the position Aug. 15 at the Committee meeting. The Committee’s director of operations also resigned at the same meeting. From July 2010 to midAugust 2011, the Committee fundraised about $102,000 and about 40 percent of that amount had been spent on expenses, Stauff said. She also said some of the files she received included deposits with no explanations, adding that the bookkeeping was not as organized as it could have been. The total balance in the account at the end of her term was $60,537.45, Stauff said. It’s the spending that concerns her. Todd Best, the former director of operations for the Kitsap 9/11 Memorial Committee, said he resigned
from his office for similar reasons as Stauff. “They are spending it faster than it’s coming in,” he said. Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue Chief Roy Lusk, executive board committee chair, Wednesday said that the fundraising total was about $120,000. About $40,000 has gone to expenses, including transporting the steel beams and T-shirt orders. The recent departure of committee members was at their own choosing and he respects that, said Lusk. Lusk said the organization does not have a “spending budget per se.” The 33 percent of total fundraised money that has gone toward expenses doesn’t cause alarm for the committee. If the economy was thriving, less money would be going toward expenses, Lusk said. “In this day in age, you have to spend money to get money. Everybody wishes we had 120 [thousand] in the bank and that it wouldn’t cost us anything,” Lusk said. This year’s 9/11 groundbreaking and 10-year remembrance event brought in $7,693.90 in donations, said Lusk. The ceremonial groundbreaking went on even though the 9/11 committee failed to provide the City Council a rough outline of the new plans and cost estimates Sept. 1 as agreed to in writing. Last June the original plans for the multi-acre memorial project were sent to the planning and design stage after the City Council, and some parks board mem-

Beads of sweat formed on Dustin’s brow. His breathing was shallow. “I think it’s stuck,” he said. He pulled at the ring, jamming it against his large
bers, found them unconnected to Bremerton or Kitsap County and in some instances frightening. To facilitate the redesign, an agreement was drawn up requiring the 9/11 Committee to get more public input and redesign the memorial based on the input. Plans outlined the way forward for the project design and public interaction. At least three more public sessions are to be held before any new design would move forward to approval by the City Council. Director Of Parks and Recretation Wyn Birkenthal, said the memorial designer, CK Fire Commissioner and architect Dave Fergus, has not yet made substantial changes to the previous designs and drawings. During the week of Sept. 1, Bremerton City Council President Will Maupin said he’d not heard from the 9/11 Memorial Committee. That guiding agreement was approved by the City Council during its July 6 meeting. The 9/11 Committee itself signed the agreement just days before the groundbreaking ceremony, according to Birkenthal. The committee’s treasurer position has been filled and the committee decided to forgo the director of operations position, said Lusk. “I think when someone says there is a lack of communication, there very well may be,” Lusk said. Other concerns Stauff has include non-executive members attending executive board meetings and the slow response time in thanking supporters and contributors — or no recognition at all,
she said. About 25 individuals and organizations who have donated significantly to the project are not recognized on the Committee’s website and an agenda item from a February Committee meeting called to write ‘thank you’ letters to recent donors. When Stauff resigned in August, the letters still had not been written, she said. “There has been so much help. We got so inundated that we fell behind,” Lusk said about formally thanking donors. “We’re working on that right now. Everyone that’s supported us is greatly appreciated.” Lusk added that in certain circumstances, nonexecutive board members may attend the executive meetings to give reports and that they do not have voting power. Stauff said she hopes that the City Council will not only look into the design of the memorial but also the Memorial Committee’s ability to inform the public on when meetings are held and to properly document donations raised and expenditures. The City Council has not adopted an official position based on the “personnel shakeup” on resignation, City Councilmember Roy Runyon said last week. “We provide political support,” Runyon said. “We don’t have any government control on how they operate.” Runyon said he remains supportive of the 9/11 memorial to be built at Evergreen Park in Bremerton — as the City Council has already approved. His concern is that the memorial design be viable,
scaled properly and addresses the concerns that citizens have voiced. Making sure that the memorial is maintainable so as not to rack up additional operation and maintenance costs is also important, he said, adding that he prefers that a water feature not be included since it could be costly. City Councilmember Jim McDonald, who is a member on the 9/11 Memorial Committee — the general committee, not the executive board — said that there have been “more volunteers than ever” at the last few Committee meetings. Stauff’s reasons for resigning from the Committee were due to “little disagreements internally,” McDonald said, adding that it is not an uncommon occurrence for a volunteer group. “I think the organization is strong. They are having some growing pains obviously,” he said. McDonald does not have any concerns and said the Committee can now refocus on the design process and gathering more public input since they are no longer planning for the 10-year remembrance event, which a lot of energy went into. “I have total faith that this group will get this done. They are dedicated. Everyone is passionate,” McDonald said. Birkenthal attended last week’s City Council meeting, which was when he learned of Stauff’s resignation when she addressed it during the meeting’s public comment period. “I was caught by surprise. I have no comment,” Birkenthal said Tuesday. “I have no authority on the inner workings of the com-
mittee or on fundraising.” To his knowledge, there is no investigation into the concerns that Stauff based her resignation on, Birkenthal said. The Sept. 1 deadline to forward estimates and updated designs to City Council passed without the Committee presenting any new materials but Birkenthal said thayt a lot of time went into organizing the groundbreaking ceremony and that the city and Committee are on the same page to get more public input and the design process underway again. Birkenthal said he is “satisfied” with the decision to slow down the design process to ensure a timeless memorial that will be an asset to the city and region is created. Fergus said that gathering more public input on the design will start up next month or November. He said that no changes have been made from the original design concepts yet but that the committee is ready to reengage in the design process. The memorial is estimated to cost about $2 million, Fergus said. Best, also a former New York City firefighter, said that unless the Committee fixes the “wrongs” on excessive spending and poor communication, the memorial will not be built. “If there are structural or organizational problems, I hope they get those resolved so they can move forward,” Runyon said. “We like a viable organization. If an organization is not viable, then it would be a significant issue.”
knuckle, until the skin on his finger was red and swollen. The salesperson assured him it was a good fit. Naturally, I thought Dustin’s struggle—his panic—was symbolic. I
watched him suffer. Once he got the ring over his knuckle and off his finger, he laid the band on the glass counter and said he could never wear anything like that. Should of thought of that
12 years ago, Dusty. The salesperson looked at me thoughtfully. Then she gave Dustin a ring one size larger. That one was too big. Dustin was afraid he’d lose it. Size, it seems, does matter. Dustin was completely conflicted: “If I get the smaller one, what if my finger swells in the heat? Or if I get the larger one, what will happen in the winter?” I reminded him that I’ve worn the same ring through three pregnancies and multiple stages of larger- and smaller-sized clothing. I took off my band and showed him that my finger has literally grown around my rings. Indeed, my ring finger is quite deformed.
Ring or no ring, I could never pass as single. True, Dustin’s finger has been spared the misshapenness that mine has endured. (Perhaps his old ring was bigger?) But it is contained just the same. We bought the plain band and left it with mine to finally get engraved. On the way home, I looked at my suddenly bare, disfigured finger. How long would it take for the skin to bounce back, to regain its usual shape? Probably never. I looked at Dustin’s hand—his smooth, symmetrical fingers—on the steering wheel and comforted myself with this: his are misshapen, too....if only metaphorically.

New destroyer testing successful WHITE SANDS, N.M. (NNS) -- The long range land attack projectile (LRLAP), designed for the DDG 1000 Advanced Gun System, successfully completed two live-fire tests at the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico, the Navy announced Sept. 22. The mission, conducted Aug. 30, was the first livefire test to successfully demonstrate LRLAP effectiveness against targets. LRLAP is a 155 millimeter rocket-assisted guided projectile designed to support land-attack and naval surface fire support opera-
tions in conjunction with the Advanced Gun System on DDG 1000-class destroyers. “This test success represents a key milestone in development of the land-attack capability and represents a significant step in the tactical maturation of the LRLAP,” said Capt. Tim Batzler, Navy Surface Ship Weapons major program manager for Program Executive Office, Integrated Warfare Systems. Both flight tests flew 45 nautical miles and met key test objectives including successful launch, GPS acquisi-
tion, warhead functionality, and terminal accuracy. Live-fire testing is part of land-based flight qualification during the engineering and manufacturing development phase.

CNO gives sailing direction WASHINGTON (NNS) -Newly appointed Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Adm. Jonathan Greenert released his Sailing Directions to the Navy following the CNO change of command ceremony, Sept. 23. The CNO’s Sailing Directions lay out a course for the Navy and can be looked upon as a user’s guide that describes the Navy’s mission and the CNO’s vision, tenets and guiding principles. This new document clearly defines the Navy’s core responsibilities with a mission statement followed with a vision for where the Navy desires to be in the next 10-15 years. As described by Adm. Greenert, over the next 10 to 15 years, the Navy will evolve
and remain the preeminent maritime force, operating forward in new and flexible ways with access to strategic maritime crossroads. The Sailing Directions states the strength of a diverse fleet which is proficient in the weapons and systems used to execute operations while maintaining a two-century tradition of warfighting excellence, adaptation and resilience. It further outlines the importance of embracing economic change by operating effectively and efficiently while staying committed to innovating technologies and warfighting capabilities. CNO addressed the next part, his tenets, in his change of command speech, “We will approach our challenges and we’ll implement
our changes that will have to be done in the future with three tenets in mind,” said Greenert. The tenets, ‘warfighting first’, ‘operate forward’ and ‘be ready’ will serve as a lens to address future challenges. And lastly, the Sailing Directions include ‘guiding principles’ that should be used as a starting point for developing and executing Navy plans. A few of these guiding principles touch on the Navy’s primary mission of warfighting, the value of Sailors, Navy civilians and families, the strength of the Navy’s partnership with the Marine Corps, the importance of effective and disciplined training and the high standard of character and behavior bestowed on Sailors.

Navy Northwest reintegrates returning sailors SEATTLE (NNS) -- More than 150 active duty and reserve personnel and their families attended the Navy Region Northwest Reserve Component Command (NRNWRCC) “Returning Warrior� Workshop (RWW) in Seattle, Sept. 23-25.
RWW is part of the Department of Defense Yellow Ribbon Reintegration Program and is designed to honor Individual Augmentee (IA) service members who have returned from overseas and personnel who’ve had particularly hard deployments. The
RWW addresses the stress that comes from these times of hardship. Cynthia Miller, NRNWRCC warrior family support program specialist, discussed the meaning of the RWW to service members and how the workshop can give a better transition
back into their normal lives. “This is to educate the returning warriors, educate on possible sideeffects, for everybody deployed in Reserves or IAs in active duty to provide resources so they can help themselves afterward and also to
appreciate their sacrifices,� said Miller. Topics during the event included warrior transitions, telling the story, physical and emotional well-being, and reconnecting with loved ones. Attendees were also given information about resources available
to assist with their transition back from deployment. Darold Bigger, retired Navy chaplain, emphasized the importance of using the resources offered to IA service members and veterans.

MULLEN | FROM PAGE 5 making it much more difficult to drop the money out of it.� This is not to say there won’t be changes. “The Army is famous for if you’ve got a problem, generate a program,� the admiral said. “I have said in many forums: I don’t need more programs. I need the ones we have to work, and the ones that are not working to go away.� Then-Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates and current Defense Secretary Leon E. Panetta said they do not want to see family programs dry up for lack
of funding. “In a budget crunch, they are usually the first to go,� Mullen said. “I would argue that we keep the money the same and feed it in to programs that work and get rid of those that don’t.� The Mullens have focused on the handoff from DOD to the Veterans Affairs Department. DOD’s people, the admiral said, are its most precious asset. Yet, when their military terms end or when they are wounded, he noted, “we hand them off to another department that
we really don’t know that much about.� The admiral praised the Marine Corps for its Marine for Life program. The other services, he added, are also moving in that direction. Mullen said the nation’s wounded warriors and veterans deserve prompt, quality services devoid of bureaucratic practices. “These young ones who are in the wounded world, they want their lives back,� Mullen said. “They want to be as medically sound as they can be and continue to achieve the American dream. They deserve it.� Mullen said early in his
tenure as chairman that the money for wounded warriors and for the families of the fallen should come right off the top of the budget. “It’s a debt we can’t repay. These people deserve everything we can do for them,� he said. The Mullens have visited wounded troops and their families, and have reached out to the families of the fallen. Both have visited Section 60 at Arlington National Cemetery, Va., countless times. They have met with families and have formed bonds with them, and they tell Americans what the families of the fallen really want. “They ask us not to forget their loved ones and their service,� Mrs. Mullen said. When the Mullens meet the families in Section 60 or other cemeteries around the country, the families carry pictures of their loved ones and tell stories about their service members, she said.
“They want you to know what happened to their loved ones, and they want to bring them alive to you,� she said. “They want to share the real person with you so when you walk through Section 60, you know that family and that person. Maybe we never met them, but we know who they are. For us that’s a sacred trust and promise we’ve made to the families who have lost someone.� The admiral remembered meeting a family in Boise, Idaho. “The mother came up to me and said, ‘We’ll never forget them, but please don’t you ever forget them,’� he said. Mrs. Mullen had a family email her about a picture they saw online of their loved one’s headstone in Arlington. “They noticed right off that something that looked like a chip in the stone, and they asked me to look at it,� she said. “I went and it was a little spider web that was dark and looked like a chip.

I brushed it off and sent them a picture to reassure them that it looked exactly as it was supposed to look. “This is where their son or daughter, husband or wife, mother or father is buried and it’s important to them that it’s the way it’s supposed to be,� Mrs. Mullen continued. “These requests are representative of the families. We need to honor their sacrifices.� Getting the American public to understand the extent and scope of the sacrifices made by service members and military families is difficult. Less than 1 percent of Americans are serving in the military. Fewer and fewer Americans personally know of people who have served. “It’s not that they don’t love and respect the troops, but they don’t know what the troops and their families have been through,� the admiral said. As the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Mullen has often been in the news. He has appeared many times on Sunday morning talk shows, been the subject of a “60 Minutes� profile and has had a constant and two-way communication with the Pentagon press corps. But he and Deborah have reached out beyond the normal information conduits. They both appeared on “The View,� and the admiral appeared three times on “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.� They have traveled the length and breadth of the United States to speak with the American people, to meet with veterans groups and help families. “The American people want to help their service members and their families,� the admiral said. “There is a sea of goodwill out there for them. They need to know how they can help.� The Mullens will step back a bit after the admiral retires tomorrow. Earlier this month he spoke of “taking a long winter’s nap� following his retirement. But both said they want to remain involved with service members, veterans and their families. And the couple said they’ll do their best to connect the American people with their military.
Cleveland came though WWII with 12 stars ‘Practice’ bombardment once rained down enemy fire. Kitsap Navy News
The light cruiser “USS CLeveland (CL-55) was launched a scant one month before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on Nov. 1, 1941. No doubt final construction touchups and fitting out went into high gear as the ship was built by New York Shipbuilding Corp., Camden, N.J., and Commissioned on June 15, 1942. The 10,000-ton ship cleared Norfolk on Oct. 10, 1942 and joined a task force forming off Bermuda bound for the invasion of North Africa against German and Italian forces. The 610-foot long ship was 66 feet, 6 inches abreast and had a a draft of 20 feet. It had a top speed of 33 knots, a large crew at 992 men, and was heavily defended with 12, 6-inch guns and another dozen, 5-inch guns. It was the lead ship of its class. Upon crossing the AtlanticOcean, on Nov. 8 the ship used its significant firepower to support Allied landings at Fedhala, French Morocco. She remained on patrol in the area until Nov. 12 and then returned to Norfolk on Nov. 24, 1942. Within a month the ship
was dispatched to the Pacific theatre of World War II and arrived at Efate in the South Pacific on Jan 16, 1943. Her first mission was in trying to guard a troop convoy going into Guadalcanal
from Jan. 27-31. Cleveland commenced hostile fire on Jan. 29-30 as she came under heavy air attack at he battle of Rennell Island. USS Cleveland then “steamed up the slot� on March 6, 1943 to bombard the Japanese airfield at Vila, then joined in the attacks which sank two Japanese destroyers in the battle for Kula Gulf. A member of Task Force 68 - “Merill’s Marauders� - Cleveland blasted away in the battle of Shortland Islands on June 30 and provided further gun support for invasions of Munda, New Georgia, on July 12. After brief repairs at Sydney, Australia, the ship sailed for pre-invasion bombing of the Treasury Islands on Oct. 26-27. Her guns further helped support troops going ashore at Bougainville, again at the Shortland Islands and on the General Douglas MacArthur confides with the commanding officer of the cruiser USS Cleveland (CL 55) Captian Herbert G. Hopwood in early summer of 1945. PHOTO FROM THE MACARTHUR LIBRARY AND MUSEUM IN NORFOLK, VA.
night of Nov. 1 intercepted a Japanese force off Empress Augusta Bay in action that would earn her the Navy Unit Commendation. USS Cleveland poured radio-controlled fire down upon four Japanese cruisers for more than one hour and helped in the sinking of the Sendai, then chased the other three ships until daybreak. Enemy fire bracketed the USS Cleveland in some of these skirmishes, but the ship emerged relatively unscathed. The ship patrolled between Truk and Green Islands from Feb. 13-18 while U.S. forces captured the latter location. After helping support the capture of Emirau Island in mid-march 1944, the ship sailed to Sydney again for repairs and resupply. By April 21, the cruiser returned to the Solomons to prepare for the Marianas Islands operations. An unusual occurrence came on May 20, when the Cleveland was doing a “practice bombardment.� The fire was returned rather unexpectedly and Cleveland gunners had to get serious and quickly “silenced� the enemy shore batteries. From June 8 to Aug. 12, 1944, Cleveland participated in the important Marianas operations. Then she joined Task Force 58 for the Battle of the Phillipine Sea on June 19-20. Few enemy planes penetrated Allied defenses, but Cleveland gunners were credited with splashing down one enemy aircraft and assisted in downing several others. After supporting the invasion of Palaus from Sept. 12-29, 944, the ship

sailed for an overhaul in the United States, but was back in action getting provisions at Subic Bay, the Phillipines by Feb. 9, 1945. Soon her gunners would be assaulting Corregidor on Feb. 13-14, effectively neutralizing the fortress before Allied forces went ashore. In early June, the Cleveland put out from Subic Bay to provide covering force and fire support for the invasion landings at Brunei Bay, Borneo on June 10. She returned to Subic Bay June 15, then sailed to Manila to embark no less a military luminary than Supreme Allied Commander of Allied Forces in the Pacific General Douglas MacArthur and his staff as observers of the attack on Balikpapan. With a new cruiser force,

Cleveland got under way July 13, 1945 to Okinawa arriving July 16. The ship made a series of sweeps against Japanese shipping until Aug. 7, to ensure Allied control of the East China Sea. Cleveland was underway from Okinawa on Sept. 9, to support the occupation of Japan by covering the evacuation of Wakayama. After a short say in Tokyo Bay until Nov. 1, Cleveland sailed for Pearl Harbor, San Diego, the Panama Canal and finally Boston, arriving on Dec. 5 for overhaul. The cruiser would operate out of Newport, R.I., on various training cruises to Halifax, Nova Scotia and Quebec in June 1946 before reporting to Philadelphia for inactivation. Cleveland was placed out

“In this setting, they have a safe place that they can start talking about the stresses and pressures that they have faced,� said Bigger. “While they are here, they can make contact with ‘militaryonesource’ representatives. A great advantage of the ‘militaryonesource’ approach is it gives them a way to connect to resources in their own community.� Service members and their families learned how to get through IA deployments through guest speakers and presentations such as the “Into the Fire� dramatization, presented by
actors Anthony Curry and Carrie Gibson. “Into the Fire� is an exploration of warriors with disabilities and combat related trauma and their stories as they integrate into their families, communities, educational institutions and workforce. Victor BrothertonManna, the lead outreach coordinator of the US Naval Reserve Psychological Health Outreach Team at Naval Station Everett (NSE), spoke of the advantages of IA service members attending events such as the RWW. “There is a level of
greater understanding by taking advantage of these programs,� said Brotherton-Manna. “It helps you fell like ‘okay, so if I’m not alone than this doesn’t mean that there is something wrong with me,’’ so it helps reduce the stigma and takes advantage of opportunities to get help.� Culinary Specialist 2nd Class Francine Henry, assigned to USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74), recently returned from an IA assignment and believes that the RWW benefits service members by sharing experiences and displaying unity during this time of war.
“It shows that we are not alone and that we are all feeling the same types of things,� said Henry. “That a lot of people are just embarrassed or ashamed to admit out loud, so I feel like if one person stands up and says those things out loud it just shows that we are all united.� RWWs are hosted throughout the country and every Navy region by Reserve component commands and provide an opportunity for Sailors and their families to talk to others who have had similar experiences.
