The Sexual Assault Awareness Month proclamation was signed Friday officially beginning the month-long campaign aboard Naval Station Rota, Spain. Commanding Officer Capt. Scott Kraverath signed the proclamation for the ninth annual Department of Defense (DoD) initiative which highlights sexual assault and prevention among the community. “Although the month of April is designated as Sexual Assault Awareness Month we understand that here at Naval Station Rota, this is a continual, daily process that will create awareness promoting a program,” said Judy Nicholson, Rota’s sexual assault response coordinator. “Whether you’re a SAPR victim advocate, command liaison, point of contact, data collections coordinator or a Sexual Assault Case Management Group member, we’re all here to make one big effort, together, to reduce, promote sexual assault awareness initiatives.” “This effort that the Navy is doing this year, to focus on sexual assault and preventing sexual assault, in my mind, is unprecedented,” said Kraverath. “I think it’s tempting to think it’s overkill; that we’re saturating so much on this that some of the message is being lost. I think everybody here needs to fight against that, because the DoD is not going to stop until we put the mind-set that under no circumstances is any- thing acceptable and we’re going to take it seriously, any allegation, any threat and beat it into everyone’s mind that it’s everyone’s responsibility to understand, recognizing and be proactive in reducing to the lowest possible level it can be.” SAAM is an annual campaign designed to raise awareness and educate communities on the prevention of sexual violence. This annual event provides the opportunity to high- light the efforts that the DoD and military services are taking to combat the crime and promote prevention through special activities and public education. https://www.cnic.navy.mil/rota April 4, 2013 Volume 23, Issue 13 U.S. Naval Activities, Spain The Coastline INSIDE DGF Students Mean Busi- ness at Future Business Leaders of America Page 8 Naval Station Rota Celebrates U.S. Navy Chief Petty Officer Birthday Page 19 Air Force RED HORSE Lends a Hand in Rota Airmen assigned to the 819th Rapid Engineer Deployable Heavy Opera- tion Repair Squadron Engineers (RED HORSE) are currently installing 1,800 additional mailboxes at the Fleet Mail Center (FMC) aboard Naval Station Rota, Spain.

The Sexual Assault Awareness Month proclamation was signed Friday officially beginning the month-long campaign aboard Naval Station Rota, Spain.

Commanding Officer Capt. Scott Kraverath signed the proclamation for the ninth annual Department of Defense (DoD) initiative which highlights sexual assault and prevention among the community.

DUI Counter

Last DUI: March 10, 2013Unit: Naval Station RotaDays Since Last DUI: 25DUIs in FY 2013: 2DUIs in FY 2012: 4

Team Rota, The military lifestyle, with its many moves, many missions

and many hours of additional duties can be tough on service members and families alike. Sometimes duty takes us away from friends, sometimes it moves us in the middle of the school year and sometimes it separates mom and dad from son and

daughter.April is the Month of the Military

Child. Any Team Rota member with children knows well the sacri-fices and service that our children give in support of our military and country. It could be argued that our children are giving up more than we are. We volunteer for this, our children are along for the ride whether they like it or not.

This month there have been and will be events around the base that recognize and cel-ebrate the children of this community. MWR has really packed the calendar. For example; on Monday MWR and Navy En-tertainment are bringing the Disney Channel’s “Imagination Movers” to the DGF Auditorium from 6 - 7:30 p.m. They’ll put on a high-energy concert for the entire family. Pinz Bowling Center is offering a spring break special for kids 1 - 12-years-old (TEI cardholding sponsors). SAC is holding Spring Camp April 8 - 12 for children ages kindergarten through 12-years-old. MWR is hosting many, many more events this month,

as are other organizations on base, aimed at celebrating the children and families who make up Team Rota. There are too many to list here, but check them out at http://www.rotamwr.com or get a copy of Vamos magazine for a complete list of MWR’s offerings.

Having fun activities for children and families to participate in are important for sure, but at the end of the day, or month in this case, perhaps it’s not so much about packing their lives with activities and events. Our children want and deserve our attention, and we’re fortunate to be on shore duty and to be in a position to give that to them.

I know we are all busy, and we are all spinning many plates. We’re doing our best at keeping the many areas of our lives in balance. But I think if we’re brutally honest with ourselves, myself included, we might be able to do a little bit better for our children. Let’s push ourselves, every day, but especially this month, to honor our children and the amazing and wonderful people they are.

There are 1.7 million American children with one or more parents serving in the military right now. The mission doesn’t stop for the Month of the Military Child or any other month that shines the spotlight on an important area of our lives and community. But, we’re hopeful that each of you, with or without children at home, will stop, consider and appreciate the military children in our community here in Rota. We have the very best people Spain and the United States have to offer here aboard Naval Station Rota - and that includes our children.

HOOYAH! CMC

April 4, 2013 3C L SEQUESTRATION

WASHINGTON - The Defense Department has re-vised from 22 to 14 the number of days hundreds of thousands of civilian employees could be furloughed this year because of the budget sequester, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel announced March 28.

In addition, a senior Defense Department official speaking on background told reporters the start of the furloughs will be delayed until mid-to-late June, after more than 700,000 department employees receive fur-lough notices now set to go out in early May. Furloughs would happen over seven two-week pay periods until the end of September, when the current fiscal year ends, the senior official said, with employees likely to be told not to come to work for two days during each of those pay periods.

Department officials say they are still working to determine which employees might be exempted.

Hagel characterized the reduced furloughs as well as a revised estimate of sequestration’s impact on the

defense budget as good news. The changes follow Congressional approval last week of a defense ap-propriations bill that prevented an additional six billion dollars in cuts, ordered under sequestration, from tak-ing effect.

"It reduces a shortfall at least in the operations budget," the secretary told reporters at a Pentagon news conference. "We came out better than we went in under the sequester, where it looks like our number is $41 billion [in cuts] now versus the $46 billion."

But despite a Congressional reprieve, Hagel said the Pentagon is still going to be short at least $22 bil-lion for operations and maintenance, "and that means we are going to have to prioritize and make some cuts and do what we’ve got to do," including making sharp reductions in base operating support and training for nondeployed units.

More critical in the long run, he said, is how budget cuts will affect readiness and the department’s overall mission. Because of that concern, he said he has di-rected Deputy Defense Secretary Ash Carter and Army Gen. Martin E. Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs

of Staff, to conduct an intensive department-wide review of U.S. strategic interests including how to protect the nation with fewer resources. "How do we prioritize the threats and then the capabilities required to deal with threats?" he said. "There will be some significant changes, there’s no way around it."

Dempsey said the department has already exhaust-ed 80 percent of its operating funds halfway through the fiscal year and characterized the current budget situation as "not the deepest, but the steepest decline in our budget ever," and warned it will affect military readiness into the future.

"We will have to trade at some level and to some degree our future readiness for current operations," the chairman said. He called on elected leaders to give the Pentagon the budget flexibility it needs to carry out institutional reforms.

"We can’t afford excess equipment," Dempsey said. "We can’t afford excess facilities. We have to reform how we buy weapons and services. We have to reduce redundancy. And we’ve got to change, at some level, our compensation structure."

WASHINGTON - For many, spring brings a resurgence of energy and activity with the milder temperatures.

It is a perfect time to practice your family emergency plan and to re-eval- uate and restock your emergency supply kit for the changing season. Although winter storms are becoming a fading memory, it is important to remember that weather and other hazards can be unpredictable. So spring into action as a Ready Navy Family and be ready for any hazard.

Be and Stay Informed: Learn about hazards that are common in spring months and most likely to happen in your area. The Ready Navy website "Be and Stay Informed" tabs offer specific instructions, information and resources you may need to know regarding floods, tornadoes, man-made hazards and emergency actions. Learn what you should know if you need to evacuate or take shelter in your home.

Make a Plan: As a family, make and refine your emergency plan so that everyone in the family understands what to do, where to go and what to take in the event of any emergency. Practice your plan by conducting a drill where all family members must gather at your designated meeting place, exiting by various doors. Your emergency plan should also include how your family will communicate with each other, particu-larly if normal communication methods such as phone lines or cell towers are

out. Road conditions and other hazards can limit ease of movement. Have a contact person outside the area who family members can notify that they are safe, if separated. Place a call to your designated contact person to be sure he or she is willing to serve in that role. The Ready Navy website provides printable forms and contact cards to guide you in your planning.

Build a Kit: The best way to prepare for the unexpected is to have on hand one or more emergency kits that include enough water and non-perishable sup-plies for every family member to survive at least three days. Keep a kit prepared at home, and consider having kits in your car, at work and a portable version in your home ready to take with you. These kits will enable you and your family to respond to any emergency more effec-tively. Make a game of kit building with your children. One idea is to have your children go on a scavenger hunt to find and gather necessary supplies around your house. Make note of items you are missing and shop together at your local installation commissary and NEX to complete your kit. History shows that children who are involved and informed with emergency planning are better able to react safely in an emergency.

For information about Ready Navy including tips, forms and guidance to be prepared for and to stay informed about all hazards, visit http://www.ready.navy.mil. Ready Navy is a CNIC-sponsored emergency preparedness program.

Show your support for the 2013 Active Duty Fund Drive on behalf of the Navy-Marine Corps

Relief Soicety with Radiothon 2013.Thursday and Friday, 7a.m. to 6 p.m., call in

your pledges for songs live on AFN Rota 102.5!

The minimum pledge amout is $2 and you can bump a song off the air by pledging at least $1 more than the

current song. Don’t forget those pesky repeater songs. They will play at the top of each hour. To request a repeater song, pledge at least $100.

To have your song replace the To have your song replace the repeater’s song, pledge at least $1

more than the initial pledge.Happy listening!

Radiothon is two days of radio madness with people calling American Forces Network (AFN) to pledge songs and try to bump their friend’s song off the air.

The long-standing tradition will once again be the final event for the Active Duty Fund Drive on behalf of the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society. To find out more about Radiothon 2013, turn your radio dial to AFN Rota 102.5 Thursday and Friday, 7 a.m. - 7 p.m.

To request a song, you must pledge a minimum of $2. If you want to bump a song, pledge at least $1 more than the original pledge. If someone else wants to bump you, someone must pledge at least $1 more than you pledged.

There are two repeater songs per hour, one at the top of the hour and one at the half-hour mark. The first repeater song of the day is $100. If there are no other songs that have been pledged to bump in that time period, the repeater will play continuously until it has been playing for 30 minutes. Once the repeater song has been played all the way through if a minimum $2 pledge is given, the repeater song will stop. If you want the repeater song to be bumped by a new re-peater you must pledge at least a dollar more than what that original pledge was.

For example Joe Navy pays $100 for the Navy Hymn to be played as a re-peater. Jane Air Force pays $101 to bump it. Joe Navy calls back and pledges $102 to bump the new song, and so on.

Note: You do not need to take the money to the radio station. The command representatives will collect money the next week. If you are active duty Navy or Marine Corps, you can spread out your radiothon payments by allotment.

Turn on and listen.

WASHINGTON - During April’s Month of the Military Child, the Defense Depart-ment recognizes the support provided by and sacrifices made by military chil-dren, said Barbara Thompson, director of DoD’s office of family policy/children and youth

Since 1983, DoD has recognized military children for the support they provide to their families. There are now 1.8 million children in the military system, Thompson said.

“Military children, youth and teens are

an integral part of their military parent be-cause they stand by them, they’re proud of them, they recognize their sacrifices and they take on additional responsibili-ties to meet the needs of their families,” she said.

Military children also receive national-level recognition, Thompson said. Fol-lowing a presidential study directive in January 2011, she said, the cabinet secretaries signed a letter of support from their departments to military communities.

Based on that directive, DoD has partnered with the Department of Agri-culture and Health and Human Services

to increase the availability of high-quality child care off the installation, she said, adding that 66 percent of military families live off base.

Thompson said she hopes civilian communities will also reach out to military children.

“Our military children are embedded in their school systems and their neighbor-hoods,” she said.

Military installations will celebrate the Month of the Military Child with activities such as parades, face painting, carnivals and other events that children enjoy, Thompson said. Activities information,

she said, will be available through base newspapers, youth centers, child devel-opment center and family support centers.

Even though the number of children with a deployed parent has decreased because of the U.S. military’s drawdown in Afghanistan, military families continue to face deployments, humanitarian mis-sions and training, Thompson said.

Regardless of the mission, military families are separated during times of holidays and children’s birthdays, she said.

“That’s why we recognize that chil-dren serve, too,” Thompson said.

Nine students from David Glasgow Farragut (DGF) High School traveled to Gar-misch, Germany for the Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) spring leadership conference March 25 - 29.

The conference brings students together from American schools in England, Ger-many, Italy and other European countries to compete against each other. The objective of this conference is to give students a feel of what the business world is like. Events ranged from public speaking to job interviews, from business ethics to client service.

"Even though we had a totally new group attending, they adapted rapidly to the conference objectives and represented our school and community outstandingly well," said Aicee Saab, FLBA advisor. "Additional thanks to parents and all others who con-tributed through our fundraising activities that made it possible for us to participate."

During this conference, DGF brought home four medals, three of them belonging to Adrian Kern, an 11th-grade junior and president of the local FBLA Club this year. Kern obtained 1st place all-Europe in Computer Problem Solving, 2nd Place all-Europe in Technology Solving and 2nd place all-Europe Impromptu Speaking II. Tiffani Driscoll, 11th-grader at DGF, brought home the 1st place medal for Accounting I.

"This year’s FBLA SLC trip was a new experience for each one of our members," said Kern. "It was an honor to participate in this conference, and I hope to participate in it next year. Additionally, I’m very happy with how DGF competed overall."

DAR ES SALAAM, Tanzania - Twenty-six members of Naval Mobile Construc-tion Battalion (NMCB) 4 and Under-water Construction Team (UCT) 1 are in Tanzania for the next two months constructing a 330-foot boat ramp for the Tanzanian Navy. In addition to the two Naval Construction Force (NCF) units, the Tanzanian People’s Defense Force (TPDF) is contributing personnel.

"This is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity," said Lt. j.g. Prince Abu-bakari, detachment officer in charge.

Upon completion, the Tanzanian Navy will be able to launch the boats they need to improve their counterpi-racy capability in Dar es Salaam.

The construction of a boat ramp combines above ground and underwa-ter construction which necessitates the unique skills of the UCT.

“The UCT Seabees bring lots of ad-ditional capabilities to our unit,” said Chief Steelworker Jason Lum, the project operation chief.

The Seabees combine the capabili-ties of a Navy diver and a construction-man, moving the job site underwater,

and building while diving.The Seabees spent the first days

clearing the project site of vegetation and debris and completed logistics tasks necessary to start construction. They are now fabricating rebar rein-forcements and formwork in prepara-tion for the concrete pour while build-ing up the ramp foundation with self compacting fill. The workers will use 23,000 cubic meters of self-compacting fill (enough to fill 719, 20-foot shipping containers) to build the foundation and will pour 105 cubic meters of steel-reinforced concrete for the ramp.

“This project will be very beneficial to the TPDF. Anti-piracy operations are a very high priority for them and this boat ramp will bring a tremendous increase to their capabilities,” said Abubakari. “Being here has also increased trust in the United States; our partnership and mutual respect has fostered an environment of camaraderie and co-operation.”

NMBC 4 is currently deployed over the European, African and Central Command areas of responsbility in support of infrastructural construction operations.

Get Outdoors this SpringWeekly Health Tip

Spring is here and as warmer (and drier) weather finally gets here, it’s a great opportunity to get your family outside and be active. Regular outdoor activity helps kids maintain their weight and improves their immune system and bone health. Kids need at least 60 min-utes of active and vigorous play each day to stay healthy. One of the easiest ways to meet this goal is to play outside.

We have opportunities on- and off-base for outside play. Base housing has several playgrounds and a park. Don’t be afraid to venture off base to parks in the surrounding area. You’ll find community parks where you can walk and play as well as national parks that offer hiking and biking opportunities. Whatever fun activity you plan for your family, remember some key items to make it safe and enjoyable.

- Bring enough water for everyone to stay hydrated. - Have some healthy snacks on hand like apples, carrots, nuts, unsweet-

ened dried fruit or whole grain pretzels. - Wear sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat.- Don’t forget rain gear just in case! Enjoy time outside with your family or friends, be active and be Healthy

for Life.

10 April 4, 2013 C LRELIGION

Master-at-Arms 2nd Class Mack* wears a prestigious award. He’s a former Marine turned Sailor. But not just any Marine. He was a Force Reconnaissance operator. Gold jump wings and a diver bubble adorn his chest. On top of his

‘war rack’ is the Navy and Marine Corps Medal. He received this for pulling a man from a burning auto wreck. The Marine Corps recognized both the brav-ery of Mack and the important value of human life.

Now, visualize three family members sitting in an office at a naval base. They are grieved and disgusted. They’ve come a long way for answers: “Couldn’t anyone see that our son, our brother, our nephew was in danger?” Were people who were serving with him too scared to help him?” For the rest of their lives, these family members will wonder if someone could have helped their loved one who had left home to serve his country in the Navy, but

who had then taken his/her own life. He needed a MA2 Mack. Virtually every Sailor can list a few suicide indicators. They know what to look for and how to help their shipmates. Many of us complain about suicide briefings. “Not that

again,” people say. When I arrived mid-January, every day on the way to the Chapel I saw a red

light message about upcoming suicide training.Perhaps it’s time we give briefings on courage or bravery. Maybe we need

to give public awards to those who prevent suicide? The Gift of Life Award!Now that’s an idea. I’m sure those relatives who came to get answers about

their family member who committed suicide would have loved to see some other Sailor receive such a citation:

The Gift of Life Award! If you would like to speak to me or another chaplain regarding this discussion

or any other issue, please call the Religious Ministries Department at 727-2161.*Name has been changed.Lieutenant Cmdr. Tadeusz Gegotek, or Father Tad as he prefers to be called,

is the Catholic priest aboard Naval Station Rota. Gegotek reported in mid-January for three years. Tad replaces Father Dillon as the priest aboard the installation. Prior to arriving in Rota, he was assigned to Naval Air Station Gricignano in Naples, Italy. He will be a regular contributor to the Chaplines in The Coastline. Welcome aboard Father Tad!

Take the Plunge with Rota MOPSMothers of Preschoolers (MOPS) meets the first and third Thursday of each month in

the Fellowship Hall at the Chapel, 7 - 9 p.m. Meetings include food, a time to socialize (kid-free), interesting and helpful guest speakers and games or other activities. Join the casual, relaxed atmosphere where mothers of all religious beliefs are welcome.

BM2 (EXW) Allen Hamilton

TEAM ROTA IN THE SPOTLIGHT

Team Rota in the Spotlight

A native of Bradenton, Fla., Boatswain’s Mate 2nd Class Allen Hamilton joined the Navy in 2004. After completing basic training in Great Lakes, Ill., he attended Boatswain’s Mate “A" School also in Great Lakes.

Once “A” School was complete, Hamilton reported to his first duty station USS Frank Cable (AS 40).

He reported to Naval Station Rota’s Port Operations Department in May 2012. Hamilton serves as the primary maintenance man and oil spill responder.

He said his biggest accomplishment thus far was buying his mother's church a van to pick up members for service.

Being A Married Husband … Happily Ever AfterWednesdays in April, 4:30 p.m. - 6 p.m. A four-week men’s group on marriage and relationships. Being happily married is the idea most men have and want when they ask the question, make the commitment and say "I do." Why then are there so many obstacles and conflicts in today’s marriages? Why has the divorce rate more than tripled over the last three generations? If you are a guy and wonder why your marriage is not what you expected or feel that trying to be the “ideal” husband and happy at the same time in your marriage is an unobtainable goal, come join us and participate in this group. We will discuss a variety of marital issues, explore some ideas about how you can get what you want out of your marriage (of course your mind went there!) and walk away with tools that can help make this more achiev-able than you think. You have made a commitment to your marriage, commit to this group for four weeks and it may possibly change your marriage forever.
