This question came up a few times at the recentCivilian Captain’s Calls I held at Port Hueneme andPoint Mugu, and I promised to get answers.I cannot extend access to Department of Defense

civilians or contractors for the sake of economicstimulation or convenience. There are some situationsduring which an installation commander can extendexchange privileges to civilians, but they are veryspecific and strictly regulated.For example, when DoD civilians are stationed

overseas on orders, the installation commander canallow them to patronize facilities such as the com-missary or the Navy Exchange (NEX). This includescivilians on TDY orders. There are also provisions forDoD civilian employees under evacuation orders.The exception to the rule is food activities, such

as the food court at the NEX at Port Hueneme. DoDcivilians working on base are entitled to purchase pre-

pared food for meals. This does not, however, extendto shopping at the commissary or the NEX.I am really excited about how engaged everyone

was at the Captain’s Calls. You all asked a lot ofgreat questions and made a lot of great suggestions.We’re gathering up answers and will get them out toyou soon. I’ll answer some here but will let you knowwhere to find the complete question and answer listonce we get it compiled.Keep sending the feedback. Your input will help

us make Naval Base Ventura County the best base inthe Navy. Reach me here by emailing [email protected], on Facebook at www.facebook.com/Na-valBaseVenturaCounty or on Twitter at www.twitter.com/NBVCCalifornia. You can also go online to ourhomepage at http://cnic.navy.mil/ventura/index.htmand use the Commanding Officer’s Suggestion Box. Ilook forward to hearing from you.

Can DoD civilians, contractors be granted NEX and commissary access?

in the NEX program, and we are solucky to have it,” said Anna Esguerra,general manager of the NEX Port Hue-neme and NEX Point Mugu. “This is afantastic opportunity.”Apple chose Port Hueneme based on

previous sales of the Macintosh com-puter, Esguerra said.Apple personnel installed the store in

the electronics area and spent an hourand a half with each of the 13 sales as-

sociates in that department, trainingthem on the different Macs sold at thestore.John Hills, an Air Force retiree living

in Camarillo, was impressed.“They’re beautiful, absolutely gor-

geous,” he said of the sleek Macs set upin the equally sleek and efficient displayarea.While he didn’t buy one that day, six

others did in the first four hours thestore was open, taking advantage of the$100-off grand opening special.For more information on the Apple

Seabees assigned to NavalMobile Construction Battalion(NMCB) 5 participated in anafter-school mentoring pro-gramwith children atHuenemeElementary School lastmonth.“We’re trying to integrate

and get the military more in-volved with the school,” saidLaurie McCarter, site coordi-nator for theHuenemeElemen-tary After School Program. “Ithink with the military pres-ence, it really gives them posi-tive role models. The childrenget so excited and enjoy havingthe guys and girls come out.”McCarter said the program,

which currently has approxi-mately 100 students enrolled,is designed to assist andmentorchildren who might be at riskacademically, have behavioralissues, or who don’t have par-ents at home until later in theday.“It’s important for the chil-

dren to have reliable mentorsor role models in their lives,”said Utilitiesman 2nd ClassChristopherWatkins, a Seabeeassigned to NMCB 5 BravoCompany.

Seabees played games withthe children and encouragedthem to be physically active byparticipating in group activitiessuch as running and soccer.They volunteerWednesdays orFridays for two hours eachday.“It’s great to not only be a

member of the armed forcesand be a defender of freedom,but you also can be a goodcitizen, which means being agood neighbor,”Watkins said.“An important part of being agood citizen is securing a goodfuture. That’s what we’re tryingto do here.”

Watkins added that he hopesto get more participation at theschool next year.

“I think it’s a really great op-portunity, mostly so for thekids. I just feel good knowingthat I’m helping them out andthat’s why everybody else ishere too,” he said.

The opportunity for travel is one of theperks of being in a military family, andfor families with school children, summeris the best time for travel. When traveland education are combined, “edu-trav-el” is formed.Edu-travel is a mix of fun, learning,

new experiences and family time. Wheth-er the travel is due to a PCS move, visit-ing family members or simply takingadvantage of the chance to visit newplaces, learning opportunities abound.While sitting in a classroom, childrenhear about history lessons and see pic-tures of geographical landmarks. Whiletraveling, they can experience those les-sons and landmarks firsthand. That iswhat edu-travel is about.Getting to the travel destination is only

part of the learning experience. Fromlicense plate scavenger hunts to traveljournals, even being in a car can be alearning experience. Plan ahead, searchfor trip games online and hit the roadwith the family for a fun learning experi-ence.Here are a few ways to help you get a

rewarding edu-travel experience.

GeocachingThis high-tech outdoor scavenger hunt

involves math and direction-finding.“Caches” of trinkets are hidden all overthe United States — in fact, all over theworld — and it’s up to you to find them.When you do, you take a trinket and leaveanother. It is fun for the whole familyand costs nothing more than a GPS unit.You will probably take a GPS device onyour trip anyway, so why not make it aportable one that you can also use forgeocaching? Check it out at www.geo-caching.com.

LetterboxingLetterboxing is an intriguing “treasure

hunt” style of outdoor activity. “Letter-boxers” hide small, weatherproof boxesin places that are accessible to the public,like parks, and post clues to finding thebox online on one of several websites.However, clues to finding some of themost highly-sought boxes are passedaround by word of mouth. There areabout 20,000 letterboxes hidden in NorthAmerica alone.Individual letterboxes usually contain

a log book, a hand-carved rubber stampand an ink pad. Finders make an imprintof the letterbox’s stamp on their personallog book and leave an imprint of theirpersonal stamp on the letterbox log book.Look it up at www.letterboxing.org.

National Parks programsIf you have preteens or younger, the

National Parks Junior Ranger Programcan’t be beat, as it provides curriculumideas for each park as well as a variety ofactivities. A companion program is thePassport Program, which allows both kidsand adults to have a special parks passportstamped as they visit and learn about

various parks. See www.nps.gov/index.htm.Active duty personnel in the Army,Ma-

rines, Navy, Air Force and Coast Guardand activated National Guard and Re-serves can now obtain the new militaryversion of the America the Beautiful Na-tional Parks andFederalRecreationLandsAnnual Pass. Service members and theirdependents get free access to more than2,000 national parks, wildlife refuges, na-tional forests, and other public landsaround the nation. Check with each parkfor operating hours and event schedules.

Blue Star MuseumsBlue Star Museums is a program that

offers free admission to museums for allactive duty, National Guard and Reservemilitary personnel and their families fromMemorial Day through Labor Day. For alist of participating museums, log on towww.bluestarfam.org/Programs/Blue_Star_Museums.

Worship scheduleThere is an oldAfrican proverb that says

when a person chooses to hold a lifelonggrudge, he or she will always suffer twicefrom the same hurt. One of the liberatingways to begin a new season is to have lessemotional baggage from our past.Let me share a story from my hospital

chaplaincy training years ago.I had a request from a dying man to see

a chaplain. He said he wanted to makepeace with God before he passed away.As we were talking about his past, I no-

ticed he became very angry and animatedwhen he mentioned a particular employerwhom he worked for when he was in hisearly 20s. Mind you, this man in the hos-pital room was probably in his late 70s orearly 80s at the time of our conversation.He quietly asked me what he should dowith his feelings toward his enemy fromthe past.I gave an answer that we both already

knew. He must either choose to forgivethis man or carry this grudge until his lastbreath here on Earth. He grew silent andlooked away from me.“Do you think your former boss might

come into this room andmake a last min-ute act of contrition by apologizing toyou?” I ventured.He finally looked atme in the eyes again

and said, “I know where you are goingwith this.”When we choose to forgive someone,

we are not condoning what that persondid; nor are we playing mind games inpretending that the offense never occurred.Because of life’s circumstances, sometimeswe should just choose to forgive our of-fender so we can release ourselves from

them and them from us.Because that dying man in the hospital

was still holding a grudge, I saw with myown eyes that even though decades andan entire lifetime have separated him andhis former employer, his old boss still hadthe power to hurt him.This was a powerful lesson I would

never forget in my own life.As we all begin a new season, please ask

God to help you to let go of past grudgesso you can move forward with greateremotional freedom and joy in your life!God bless you all.

With forgiveness, we can move forward with joy, freedom

went to the Non-Abrasive Poly-mers Technologies Project team,which includesWilliamAcker III,Tim Tenopir and Joe Marquez.In all, the Naval Sea Systems

Command won six VE Achieve-ment awards for the fiscal year.The Port Hueneme project was

selected for the special-award cat-egory for developing a safe andenvironmentally friendly methodfor cleaning external combat sys-tems equipment. The commer-cially based system is safe, easyto use and, with a standard exten-sion pole, can reach hard-to-ac-cess areas.The system will reduce main-

tenance time by 75 percent andeliminates the need for hazardousmaterials. The project will resultinNavy cost savings over six yearsof $295,219 for AN/SPY-1 andMK 99 Fire Control Systems,with replication of this idea to bedeployed for cleaning other top-side equipment.

Navy Operational Support Center(NOSC) Port Hueneme honored WorldWar II veterans during a Spirit of ’45 eventthat kicked off Memorial Day weekend atAtria Los Posas, a senior group livinghome in Camarillo, close to Naval BaseVentura County, Port Hueneme.“It was such an extraordinary honor to

meet and say ‘Thank you for your service,’”Capt. Ronald Oswald, commanding offi-cer, NOSC Port Hueneme, said during theFriday, May 25, event. “These cherishedSoldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines andWAVES (Women Accepted for VolunteerEmergency Service) of America’s ‘greatestgeneration’ inspire our generation to bebetter servicemen and servicewomen.”Oswald pinned flag pins onto the veter-

ans, and certificates of appreciation werehanded to the veterans byMaster of Cer-emonies LyndseyHale, the veterans’ com-munity liaison for VITAS InnovativeHos-pice Care. Hale is descended from twogenerations of military service, and she isa Navy spouse whose husband is current-ly deployed.

“It means a lot to our World War IIveterans to have the young local militarytroops here to support and honor them,”said Hale.“Being able to shake hands and share

stories withWorldWar II veterans was an

honor and a privilege, and I salute eachand every one,” said Personnel SpecialistSeaman Taylor Perry of NOSCPort Hue-neme. “I proudly serve and will continueserving as my heroes served to protect myfreedom.”

During the intermission, veterans, in-cluding twowomen from theNavyWAVESand one from theU.S. NavyNurse Corps,told some of their stories to the Sailorsfrom Hueneme.“It is humbling to listen as they recount

their experiences on the sands of Iwo Jima,over the skies of France, on the deepwatersof the Western Pacific, in the forests ofGermany and on the hills of Korea,” saidOswald. “They paved the way, showing ustrue honor, courage and commitment, val-ues that we hold forever dear today.”Builder 2nd Class Douglas Hoffman of

NOSCPort Hueneme agreed that we haveour freedoms today because of these vet-erans and those who didn’t make itback.“It is my humble opinion that if we fail

to respect and recognize those who didreturn, it would be as if those who didn’treturn sacrificed in vain,” he said.CommandMaster Chief TerryDelacruz

of NOSC Port Hueneme said this was thebest way to celebrate Memorial Day.

“We should thank our heroes or lovedones when they can still appreciate ourgesture,” he said.

The 70th anniversary of the Battle ofMidway, which turned the tide of the Pa-cific Theater and led to America’s defeatof the Japanese Empire in World War II,was commemorated Tuesday, June 5, atNavalBaseVenturaCounty (NBVC), PointMugu.Among the 200who gathered in front of

Building 1were 13 veterans, someof whomwere fighting inWorldWar II as the battleraged.“I think it’s awesome that they’re here,”

said Senior Chief Aviation StructuralMe-chanicHomeroCarrillo, whoworkedwithNBVC Command Master Chief ThomasCyr in bringing in the veterans from theVeterans Home of California-Ventura.“This puts a face to the names of the vet-erans we talked about today.”While no one in the audience actually

fought in the 1942 Battle of Midway, sev-eral were in WorldWar II at the time, andone retiredNavy lieutenant was recoveringfrom an emergency appendectomy in Ha-waii.“On June 1, I had surgery in the Naval

Hospital in Hawaii,” said Eyvinn Schoen-berg, then a young flight corps specialist.Three days later and 1,000 miles to the

northwest, the Battle of Midway began.When it ended June 7, 307 Americans hadbeen killed and 145 aircraft destroyed,along with a carrier and one destroyer.But on the Japanese side, 4,800 had been

killed. Lost were 292 aircraft, four carriersand one cruiser. Seven more ships wereseverely damaged.The Battle of Midway has gone down in

history as a lesson in American persever-ance, determination and spirit.“They simply never quit,” said Capt.

ToddWatkins, the deputy commodore ofAirborneCommandControl andLogisticsWing, headquartered at NBVC PointMugu.Watkins, who said studying the battle

prompted him to become a naval aviator,was the keynote speaker for the event.“Entire squadrons were shot from the

sky,”he said, but the youngAmericanswhofought those four days — who came fromthe same towns, cities and farms as theyoung Sailors watching that morning’scommemoration — never gave up.Watkins described the Battle of Midway

as a “hallmark of pride.”From the civilian contractors who

brought a limping USS Yorktown (CV-5)back to life, astonishing the JapaneseNavy,to “those who are resting silently in the

waters aroundMidway,” those who foughtin the historic battle must never be forgot-ten, he said.After his talk, Watkins, together with

Capt. David Sasek, chief staff officer ofNBVC,Yeoman 1st Class VanessaGutier-rez of theNavyOperational Support Cen-ter Port Hueneme, andCulinary Specialist2nd Class Jesus Fimbres took part in awreath-laying ceremony as anE-2CHawk-eye performed a flyover.Afterwards, Sailors chatted with the vet-

erans and listened to war stories. BillyeGrymwade discussed her six years in theNavy starting in 1943, the first three as ayeomandoingofficework—“veryboring,”she said — and the next three as a flightattendant onNavy transport aircraft— “alittle too exciting.”Many of the young Sailors shook the

hands of their elder counterparts, earnest-ly thanking them for their service.Then it was off to the galley for lunch.Lynda Griffin, a supervising rehabilita-

tion therapist who accompanied the veter-ans to the base, said everyone appreciatedthe day.“I think it’s a wonderful event,” she

said.

InMay, the Navy Operational SupportCenter (NOSC) Port Hueneme sponsoredits first U.S. NavyAdvancedOfficer Lead-ership Course for junior officer depart-ment heads.The course was provided as a pilot proj-

ect to enable Reserve junior officers tomore fully understand strategic leadershipgoals, opportunities and new develop-ments in the Navy. Students focused onpersonal development and responsibilities,as well as the authority and trust placedin Navy leaders at every level.Capt. Ronald Oswald, commanding of-

ficer of NOSC Port Hueneme, sponsoredthe course, which was implemented byCmdrs. Keller Penrod and James Rund,members of an advanced team from theCenter for Personal and Professional De-velopment.Penrod and Rund led and inspired a

class of 23 junior Navy officers rangingin rank from ensign to lieutenant com-

mander and representing Navy Reserveunits from Los Angeles, Ventura Countyand Moreno Valley.These junior officers brought diverse

backgrounds and experience to share. Thecourse helped participants identify differ-ent personalities that exist within theNavyand within organizations that the Navyencounters on a daily basis.The course commenced by identifying

each junior officer’s personality trend. Us-ing the Keirsey Temperament Sorter, par-ticipants were able to identify their ownpersonality trend and better understandtheir own behavior and the motivationsof others with different personality typesin the group.Other course topics included how the

Navy’s diversity and cultural mix haschanged; the integration and service ofwomen; social tolerance; and acceptedversus unaccepted activities both insideand outside the working environment.NOSC Port Hueneme will offer this

course annually.

talion readiness in the field. NMCB5 will conduct three CPXs and onefield training exercise (FTX) thishomeport before deploying early nextyear to Pacific Command.“It brings pride to me that I can

help give back to the unit and helpthem get better for next year,” said Lt.Jovaughn Ewing, the NMCB 5 CPXaction officer.Seabees trained and reacted to sce-

narios that included entry controlpoint (ECP) drills, small arms fire,how to conduct patrols and briefs andmore. The battalion coordinated ef-forts to construct a small forwardoperating base (FOB) for the event.“I hope everybody gets some real

training value out of it. Our Seabeesget to do a real practical application

and have some fun,” Ewing said.The FOBwas initially created from

erected tents that house a commandoperations center, communicationsshop and company command posts.Communications were then estab-lished for company line fighting posi-tions, patrols and battalion companieswithin camp.“It’s great seeing everything come

together.We havemultiple CPXs linedup this homeport to help set up andprepare ourselves for an FTX in Au-gust,” said Lt. j.g. Jonathan Kim, of-ficer in charge for CPX 1. “DuringCPX 1, we set up basic communica-tion exercises and different scenariosthat the battalion will face duringFTX.”NMCB 5 is continuing training

throughout homeport to increase Sea-bee skills within the battalion.“For those who will be going to

FTX, it does help,” said EquipmentOperator 3rd Class Shaunchai Green.“CPX 1 gives you an idea of what toexpect and how to respond to eventsin future exercises and deployment.”

MANATUTO, Timor-Leste — SeabeesfromU.S.NavalMobile ConstructionBat-talion (NMCB) 40 conducted a ribbon-cut-ting ceremony for the April opening of anew school they builtwithTimor-LesteDe-fense Force (F-FDTL) engineers inMana-tuto, Timor-Leste.The ceremony, jointly conducted byU.S.

Ambassador Judith Fergin and the Timor-Leste Minister of Education Joao CancioFreitas, represented the culmination of amultilateral construction project betweenthe Seabees, F-FDTL and the local com-munity.Thenewconstruction increasedclassroom

capacity atManatuto Primary, also knownas Rentau Aiteas, by 20 percent. The new100-by-35-foot facility contains three class-rooms, a library, office space and restrooms.The new restroom facility uses water froma rainwater collection system and is not de-pendent on the city supply system,which isavailable for only two hours a day.During thehumanitarianaidproject, Sea-

bees also focused on training the F-FDTLArmy engineers in construction techniques.

A group of six F-FDTL Army engineerslived and worked within the remote com-munity to support U.S humanitarian aidconstruction and to team-build with theSeabees. The bilateral relationship strength-ened relations between nations.“We are very grateful to the Seabees and

members of theF-FDTLwhohave built usthis new building. We can’t thank themenough for all they have done,” said theprincipal of Manatuto Primary.

Seabees took time to make friends withthe childrenbetween class sessions, allowingthem to participate in supervised construc-tion of their school. Every Friday, an hourwas set aside to allow an opportunity toparticipate inbuilding their newschool facil-ity.“Working with the kids around was dif-

ficult at first, but once we started makingfriends and talking with them it made iteasier to keep them safe around the projectsite,”said theproject supervisor,Builder 2ndClass EduardoMunoz.In addition, Seabees, local residents,

school staff and kids helped fix up the play-ground and paint a second building in theirfree time.“It was a great feeling putting on the fin-

ishing touches,” said Equipment OperatorConstructionman Lacey Barnes. “It reallymade me feel we accomplished some-thing.”The project replaced a facility destroyed

in a typhoon in 1999.“Weare very happy to see this new school

building and thankful to theU.S. for restor-ing the building that was lost so long ago,”said community leader Joao Da Silva.

ROTA, Spain — Seabees from NavalMobile Construction Battalion (NMCB)3 volunteered their time May 14 assist-ing the all-volunteer staff at the RotaAnimal Welfare League Shelter(RAWLS), a temporary home for aban-doned dogs and cats.Seven Seabees from Alfa Company

spent the day cleaning out holding pens,playing with and walking the animalsand providing them with some neededattention.“Cleaning up the animals’ living area

provided them a better place to live,”said Equipment Operator 2nd ClassDustin Beach. “It felt great to help theanimals in need.”The Alfa Company Seabees plan to

continue their volunteer project at

RAWLS throughout the duration oftheir deployment.“Volunteer work assists in personal

development and is important in main-taining a positive image of the Navy,”said Ensign Scott Christman. “It isgood for the troops, good for the orga-nization being helped and good for theNavy.”The Seabees have spent several hours

cleaning up pine needles, pulling weedsand removing dead tree branches frommany of the dog pens. This has enabledthe staff to use pens that were previ-ously unusable.“Volunteering always brings me a feel-

ing of accomplishment,” said Construc-tion Mechanic 2nd Class Michael Mc-Cracken. “I know I have just given backand helped in a meaningful way. I lookforward to continuing in the future.”

DIRE DAWA, Ethiopia — Ethiopianand U.S. personnel gathered for a ribbon-cutting ceremony to dedicate a new school-house and two latrines at theGendeGera-daPrimary School inDireDawa,Ethiopia,May 22.The project, which exemplifies theNavy’s

“Global Force forGood”efforts, was start-ed by previous battalions but was finishedby the Seabees of NavalMobile Construc-tion Battalion (NMCB) 3.NMCB3 completed construction of two

latrines and added final touches to theschoolhouse after their arrival in February,said Lt. j.g. SarahUrsetti, NMCB3 officerin charge.The school already hosts approximately

2,500 students. The new four-room school-house allows the school to accommodate200 more, said the Principal Kumsa Bay-sa.Dire Dawa education officials plan on

using the new building to teach childrenages 5 to 6, said Kumsa. This will be thefirst time the school will have the facilitiesto hold a kindergarten program.“The addition of the new classroomswill

provide great benefits for the education ofour country,” saidKumsa. “I would like tosay thank you to the people of the UnitedStates government and our people whoworked with the U.S. military.”The Seabees were not alone in their con-

struction efforts, Ursetti said. Since theproject began inApril 2010, several GendeGerada students helped the Seabee con-struction crews whenever and whereverthey could.“It started off with three or four boys

initially, but when our crew arrived thatnumber grew to about seven, with severalothers helping out as we neared the end,”Ursetti explained.“They helped us during every recess and

even on the weekends,” said Builder 2ndClass BenjaminWeber, NMCB 3’s projectsupervisor for the school. “They are hardworkers. I wouldwelcome them tomy crewanytime.”The students and the Seabees taught each

other about their cultures and a little oftheir languages.

“We learned a lot from each other,” saidBuilder Constructionman Jaqui Shaw.“They taught us about their culture andwe taught them about ours on top of an-swering endless questions about America.It was a great experience.”During the dedication ceremony, Rear

Adm. Michael Franken, Combined JointTask Force – Horn of Africa commander,presented each of the young students withhis command coin.In addition, Kumsa revealed his vision

of what the new facilities will bring.“In the future, you will see many kids

filling up this school, and we will use it forthe betterment of our country,” he said.

Singing the BeeGees’ hit “Stayin’Alive”in his head to get the timing right, AviationElectronics Technician 1st Class JeremyHarris performed cardiopulmonary resus-citation Thursday, June 7, in front of theNaval Base Ventura County (NBVC),Point Mugu, Navy Exchange.The NEX was one of 27 locations in

Ventura County—with another being theNEX at NBVC Port Hueneme — wherefirst responders were offering lessons inthe new “hands-only” CPR that is beingtouted as safer and just as effective as theold method of combining chest compres-sions and mouth-to-mouth.“This is much easier,” said Harris, who

stopped by on his way to the NEX to buya new gas connection for his grill.Jennifer McKinley, a medical staff

worker at the St. John’s Hospital emer-gency room in Oxnard, said the hope isthat people turned off by the idea of per-forming mouth-to-mouth on a strangerwon’t hesitate to perform chest compres-sions when an emergency strikes.“The new hands-only CPR has been

shown to improve survivability just as well

as the old combination technique,” shesaid.From 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., she and Fed-

eral Fire personnel stationed at NBVCPoint Mugu taught passersby the newprocess. In the first hour, nine peopletook a lesson.“It’s good for everyone to learn how

to help out,” said firefighter TimWright. “It can save lives.”Here are the four C’s to the new CPR

technique:• Check for responsiveness by shout-

ing, shaking the person and rubbing thebreastbone with your knuckles.• Call 911 or tell someone to do so if

the person is unresponsive, gasping ornot breathing.• Compress. Position the victim on

the floor, face-up. Place one hand onthe center of the chest between thenipples and the other hand on top ofthe first. Push hard — at least 2 inches.Push fast — 100 compressions per min-ute, the same tempo as “Stayin’Alive.”• Continue until emergency crews ar-

rive. Even if the person gasps, it’s notnecessarily a sign of recovery.

CAMPKATUU, Palau—Seabees fromU.S.NavalMobile Construction Battalion(NMCB) 40 recently conducted a tourwith American high school students inPalau using submersible robotic vehiclesto locate and image people and aircraftMissing inAction (MIA) fromWorldWarII.High school students from Stockbridge,

Mich., arrived at Camp Katuu in Apriland were given a quick presentation byEnsign Gregory Shultz, Hospital Corps-man 1st Class Tabot Kwo and Construc-tionMechanic 1st ClassDarrell Broussardhighlighting the capabilities of the U.S.Navy Seabees and Civil Engineer Corps(CEC). The students then toured CampKatuu, becoming familiar with the op-erations of NMCB 40 Civic Action Team(CAT) Palau.

“We have eight students with us, almostall of whom are interested in some typeof engineering in the future,” said BobRichards, the robotics class instructor.“This is a great opportunity for them tosee some of the great work that our Sea-bees are doing in Palau.”The Stockbridge group was in Palau for

twoweeks, and in addition tomeetingwithSeabees fromNMCB 40, the students vis-ited local schools and spent a large amount

of time on the water using their robot withthe BentProp Project, a non-governmentorganization working to document andrecover MIAs in Palau. But for the stu-dents, the Seabees seemed to be the high-light of their visit.“I don’t know what you guys did,” said

BentProp Team Leader Patrick Scannon,“but those kids won’t stop talking abouttheir tour with the Seabees. They had agreat experience.”

CHINHAE, South Korea — Seabeesfrom U.S. Naval Mobile ConstructionBattalion (NMCB) 40, Detail Chinhae,participated in the Commander NavalForces Korea (CNFK) Regional Sailorof the Quarter competition while de-ployed to Commander Fleet ActivitiesChinhae (CFAC) in April.Detail Chinhae submitted nomination

packages for two high-performing Sea-bees to the Regional CNFK competition,

and both were honored with awards. Con-struction Mechanic 3rd Class Christo-pher Allen was selected as the JuniorSailor of the Quarter (SOQ) and BuilderConstructionman Shane Slowiak wasselected as the Blue Jacket of the Quarter(BJOQ).“The whole experience was a great

honor to not only represent myself butall Seabees to the commands throughoutSouth Korea,” said Slowiak.To be eligible for the regional Sailor of

the Quarter competition, each Sailor had

to endure an oral board in front of thesenior enlisted personnel of Chinhae Na-val Base and be selected as the winnerfor the CFAC Sailor of the Quarter. TheSailors were evaluated on their accom-plishments in the past three months, in-cluding leadership, professional develop-ment and Navy knowledge.“It gave me great pride to be given this

opportunity to display my hard work anddedication,”Allen said. “The competitionalso gave me a strong desire to strive formore.”

NMCB 40 is one of the few Navy unitsdeployed to Korea; the remaining Sailorsin the competition for SOQ are perma-nently stationed on the Korean penin-sula.“In the history of CNFK, it is extreme-

ly rare for two deployed Sailors to bechosen over the Navy personnel stationedin Korea, but the Seabees’ outstandingaccomplishments this past quarter de-manded their selection,” said CFACCommand Senior Chief Chris Organ.

OKINAWA, Japan— Sailors from the3rd Dental Battalion and U.S. NavalMobile Construction Battalion (NMCB)40 recently visited the Camp Courtney,Okinawa, Child Development Center(CDC) to educate toddlers and pre-schoolers about oral hygiene.April is the “Month of the Military

Child” and “Children’s Dental HealthMonth,” and in recognition, Sailorseducated youth about the structure ofthe mouth, the importance of brushingand proper tooth-brushing techniques.Toddlers answered questions like “Howmany times do we brush our teeth daily?”and practiced properly brushing andflossing their teeth.“I actually really like doing presenta-

tions to preschool students and love thefact that they listen very well to direc-tions,” said Lt. Maria Sanchez.Sanchez was one of two Navy officers

who taught the children. In addition toexplaining the functions of the mouthand teeth, Sanchez described what a firstdental visit would entail.

“Overall, the experience taught methat kids are very good listeners andeager to learn,” Sanchez said.The teachers enjoyed the company,

too.“The experience was great,” said Kin-

jo Satsuki, a teacher at the CDC. Thechildren had a great experience to learnwhy and how to brush and floss throughfun activities.”Sailors used Velcro and tennis balls to

simulate plaque on the teeth, getting thechildren engaged with games and hands-on activities. The children’s faces lit upwhen they were given the opportunityto brush away the tennis balls with alarge toothbrush.“The officers and corpsman were very,

very friendly, and the information theypresented was very educational,” Sat-suki said.As the visit came to a close, the Sailors

got together to remind the children tobrush their teeth and the importance ofhealthy oral hygiene. Hospitalman 3rdClass Lewis Parker even put on a wis-dom tooth costume.“I enjoyed the visit very much,” Park-

er said. “I really enjoyed how surprisedthe kids were when they saw me in thewisdom tooth costume. I enjoyed the

experience, especially seeing my 3-year-old daughter, Nevaeh, laughing atme.”

Improper or incomplete flossing increases risk of gingivitis,periodontal disease and even tooth loss.

Let’s face it, no one likes to floss. However, flossing is one of themost important ways you can protect your mouth from cavity-causingplaque and gum disease. Consider this: every tooth has five surfacesthat need to be cleaned, but when you skip flossing, you’re leavingtwo of those surfaces virtually untouched! In fact, experts say thatflossing accounts for about 40 percent of the work needed to removeplaque from your teeth.

Your new Bright Now! Dental office in Oxnard wants to remind you thatdaily flossing is a vital part of your oral health. Proper technique anddaily use are essential. Take your time, keep the floss tight against thesurface of each tooth, and avoid putting too much pressure on yourgums. If youneedhelpperfectingyourmethod, justaskyourBrightNow!Dentist or oral hygienist during your next visit. You can find Bright Now!Dental in Oxnard and Simi Valley.

Here are three simple tips you can try to help make your flossing experience easier.

Choose your floss wisely:Make sure you choose the floss that’s right for you. If you have large spaces between your teeth, try using wide, flat floss. With teeth that aretighter together, use thin floss that you can easily work between your teeth. One is not necessarily better than the next; the best floss is theone you’ll use daily.

Don’t skimp on the length:You should use a piece of floss that is at least 15 inches long. This will give you plenty of length to wrap around your fingers for the solidgrasp you’ll need for proper flossing. As the floss becomes dirty or weakened by fraying, wind the floss around your finger to expose afresh section.

Don’t let a little bleeding deter you:If your gums bleed when you floss, it’s not necessarily an indication that you’re doing something wrong. Often, bleeding is a sign thatplaque is causing inflammation in your gums. This should subside once flossing becomes a regular habit and your gums become healthier.

With daily practice, proper technique and a little patience, flossing can be as quick and easy as brushing.

Point Mugu and Port Hueneme

NBVC Point Mugu and Port Hueneme receive the samedrinking water as the City of Port Hueneme and theChannel Islands Beach Community District, which ispurchased from the Port Hueneme Water Agency (PHWA).The PHWA provides treatment to groundwater thatcomes primarily from the United Water ConservationDistrict (United). United’s water, in turn, comes fromlocal groundwater resources in the El Rio area of VenturaCounty. This water is pumped from shallow wells drilled intothe Oxnard and Fox Canyon aquifers, which are fed bythe Santa Clara River drainage basin. The drainage basinreceives water from various sources such as: percolativecontributions from regional rainfall, rivers, and streams;and to a far lesser degree contribution from the percolationof wastewater treatment plants, and agricultural runoff.

PHWA’s water treatment plant uses two different typesof state-of-the-art membrane filtration technologies to

treat United’s water. These desalination techniques areknown as reverse osmosis (RO) and nano-filtration (NF).Three treatment trains operate side-by-side and each oneproduces between 1 and 1.5 million gallons of drinking waterevery day.

The treatment process softens the water received fromUnited by lowering the mineral content and minimizesthe corrosiveness of thewater through the addition of sodiumhydroxide. The water is disinfected using chloramines insteadof chlorine. Chloramines have better taste, fewer odors,and reduce the formation of Disinfection By-Products(DBP’s) in the water, which is a known carcinogen.Fish owners should chemically remove the chloramines fromthe PHWA water when preparing fish tank water. Failure toremove the chloramines could result in risk to the aquatic lifein the tank.

State water imported by the Metropolitan Water Districtof Southern California (MWD) is an additional watersource for the PHWA. MWD imports water from northernCalifornia via the State Water Project through a networkof reservoirs, aqueducts, and pump stations. The State wateris filtered and disinfected by MWD surface water treatmentplants and brought into Ventura County by CalleguasMunicipal Water District (Calleguas). Calleguas bringsthe State water to the PHWA treatment plant, where itis blended with the treated United water and then deliveredto you. The blended water contains about 2.5 parts permillion chloramines. The concentration of chloraminesis within the water quality standards intended to safeguardpublic health.

In October 2001, United completed a Source WaterAssessment for its drinking water wells. This assessmentprovides a survey of potential contamination sourcesof the groundwater that supplies United’s well. Activitiesthat constitute the highest risk are petroleum storagetanks and fueling operations, septic systems, and abandonedanimal feedlots. Groundwater at United is vulnerableto contamination by MTBE, a gasoline additive. NoMTBE has been detected in United’s wells as of thisreport. United continues to monitor the water quality of itsdelivered water. A new Surface Water Sanitary Surveywas completed in January 2011 and was submittedto CDPH. Copies of the Source Water Assessment Survey /Surface Water Sanitary Survey are available from United at(805) 525-4431.

In December 2002, MWD completed its Source WaterAssessment of its State Water Project supplies. State WaterProject supplies are considered to be the most vulnerableto urban/storm water runoff, wildlife, agriculture, recreation,and wastewater. A copy of the assessment can be obtainedby contacting MWD at (213) 217-6850.

San Nicolas Island

The Navy produces drinking water for NBVC SNI throughthe desalination of sea water. The RO treatment plantdraws seawater from beach wells, desalinates, and treats thewater in two RO units. The waste brine from the RO unitsis discharged to a beach wet well.

A monitoring violation was issued to NBVC SNI in 2011 dueto amissed sample. OnOctober 4, 2011, a perchlorate samplecollected at the raw water sample point, located prior tothe reverse osmosis treatment process, exceeded themaximum contaminant level (MCL) of 6 parts per billion.The sample result was 8.7 parts per billion. NBVC personneldid not collect a follow up sample within 48 hours asrequired by the Safe Drinking Water Act. Notification wasprovided to the CDPH and subsequent samples collectedat both the raw water sample location and treated watersample locations were below the MCL of 6 parts per billion.Perchlorate is typically removed from source water bythe reverses osmosis treatment process, therefore the CDPHagreed to move NBVC SNI’s point of compliance forperchlorate from the raw water sample location to a treatedwater sample location.

HOW IS MY WATER MONITORED?

NBVC monitors the drinking water quality by taking daily,weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annual water samplesaccording to federal and state drinking water regulations.The site specific tables in this report list the drinking waterconstituents that were detected during 2011 calendar year.

The PHWA water system failed to collect a sample asrequired for drinking water standards during the past yearand, therefore, was in violation of their permit. PHWAis required to monitor your drinking water for specificcontaminants on a regular basis. During calendar year2011, PHWA did not complete the general mineral/physicalanalysis of their treated water. However, before the wateris delivered to PHWA, UWCD and Calleguas monitoredthese constituents and their concentrations are withinhealth standards. Furthermore, the treatment provided byPHWA improves or maintains the water quality providedto their customers. PHWA will resume sampling in 2012.There is nothing you need to do at this time.

WHY ARE CONTAMINANTS IN MY WATER?

The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottledwater) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs,springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of theland or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurringminerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and canpick up substances resulting from the presence of animals orfrom human activity. Contaminants that may be present insource water before it is treated include the following:

✥ Microbial Contaminants Viruses and bacteria, whichmay come from sewagetreatment plants, septicsystems, agricultural livestockoperations and wildlife.

✥ Inorganic Contaminants Salts and metals, that can benaturally-occurring or resultfrom urban storm waterrunoff, industrial or domesticwastewater discharges, oil andgas production, mining orfarming.

❖ Pesticides & Herbicides May come from a variety of sources such as agriculture,urban storm water runoff, and residential uses.

❖ Organic Chemicals Including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals,which are by-products of industrial processes andpetroleum production, and can also come fromgas stations, urban storm water runoff, agriculturalapplication, and septic systems.

❖ Radioactive Contaminants Can be naturally-occurring or be the result of oil and gasproduction and mining activities.

To ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the EPA and CDPH prescribe regulations thatlimit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems.CDPH regulations also establish limits for contaminants in bottled water that provide thesame protection for public health.

Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the generalpopulation. Immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoingchemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDSor other immune system disorders, some elderly, and some infants can be particularlyat risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking tap water fromtheir health care providers. EPA/Centers for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines onappropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbialcontaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791.

Radon is a radioactive gas and known human carcinogen that you cannot see, taste, orsmell. Found throughout the U.S., radon can move up through the ground and into ahome through cracks and holes in the foundation. Radon can build up to high levels inall types of homes. Radon can also get into indoor air when released from tap water as aresult of showering, washing dishes, and other household activities. Compared to radonentering the home through soil, radon entering the home through tap water will in mostcases be a small source of radon in indoor air. Breathing air containing radon can lead tolung cancer. Drinking water containing radon may also cause increased risk of stomachcancer. If you are concerned about radon in your home, test the air in your home. Testingis inexpensive and easy. Fix your home if the level of radon in your air is 4 picocuries perliter of air (pCi/L) or higher. There are simple ways to fix a radon problem that are nottoo costly. For additional information, call your State radon program at (800) 745-7236or call EPA’s Radon Hotline at (800) SOS-RADON.

Water Quality DataThe following table summarizes drinking water contaminants detected in the waterdelivered to NBVC Port Hueneme and Point Mugu during the 2011 calendar year.Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at leastsmall amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarilyindicate that the water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants andpotential health effects can be obtained by calling the EPA’s Safe DrinkingWater Hotlineat (800) 426-4791. Unless otherwise noted, the data presented in these tables is fromtesting done January 1 through December 31, 2011. The State requires that we monitorfor certain contaminants less than once per year because the concentrations of thesecontaminants are not expected to vary significantly from year to year. Some of the data,though representative of water quality, is more than one year old.

Base Ventura County, Port Hue-neme, installed a new tile floorand baseboard and recoated andrepainted the walls to give theroom a completely new look.They also retiled the kitchen areaand a back entrance.The work is estimated to have

saved the Boys & Girls Clubabout $10,000 in constructioncosts.“This building is more than 40

years old, and it needs lots ofTLC,” said Laurel Wilvert, unitdirector for the facility, locatedat 590 E. Pleasant Valley Road,within walking distance of thebase. “The Seabees have beenawesome. They figured out whatwas needed, then they broughtthe bodies.”The project began with Chief

Builder Tim Fabrey, who hasbeen volunteering as a coach atthe Boys & Girls Club for fiveyears and knew the buildingneeded work. As the community

service representative for theChief Petty Officers Associationof the Center for Seabees andFacilities Engineering (CSFE), hebrought up the renovation ideaand had immediate buy-in.But when they visited the site,

the chief petty officers realizedthey couldn’t do it by themselves.The group approached NBVC’sCommandMaster Chief Thom-as Cyr, who took it to CommandMaster Chief Delbert Terrell ofNavalMobile Construction Bat-

talion (NMCB) 5, which had re-cently returned from deploy-ment.Terrell putChief Builder Logan

Ash in charge, and the Seabees gottowork.Using supplies purchasedby Hueneme Police Chief Kath-leen Sheehan and other civic lead-ers, 15 to 30 Seabees worked from9 a.m. to 4p.m. over several days, installingtile and recoating the walls.“It’s not difficult in its complex-

ity, it’s just tedious,” said ChiefBuilder Tom Sanchez, one of theSeabees hard at work on a recentday. “It’s a lot of tiling and grout-ing. Putting in the tile is easy, it’sthe grouting afterwards that takesa lot of patience.”About halfway through the

project, Fabrey was pleased withwhat he was seeing.“It’s really brightening things

up,”he said. “I’m gladwe’re help-ing the community and giving thekids a better place to hang out.”By the end of the project, the

Seabees had installed more than2,000 square feet of tile and re-coated and painted about 1,000square feet of wallspace.“It is always a pleasurewhenwe

canhelpout the local community,”Terrell said. “No one is successfulby themselves, so joining forceswithNBVC,CSFE,NMCB5andthe Boys and Girls Club to helpprovide a place for our future lead-ers to hang out and grow is prettycool.”Between 150 and 180 children

6 to 18 years old go to the centerevery day during the school year.During the summer, daily atten-dance ranges from 100 to 125.That’s a lot of kids, Sheehan

pointed out, calling the finishedproduct “spectacular.”“The Seabees contributed —

tirelessly — their effort, energyand expertise,” she said. “Thisproject is resulting in amuchmorepositive environment for the kids,and in the long run, it is keepingour kids on the right path.”
