Naval Base Ventura County
(NBVC) has received a 2011
Chief of Naval Operations safe-
ty award, and the director of the
base safety office said he believes
mishap review boards and high
attendance at motorcycle safety
classes are two key reasons why.
NBVC received the Chief of
Naval Operations Award for
Safety Ashore for a large, non-
industrial installation. The award
recognizes strong outstanding
support and achievement in safe-
ty and occupational health and
for directly supporting the Secre-
tary of Defenses 75 percent mis-
hap reduction goal.
NBVCs Installation Safety Di-
rector George Egeler said two
tools have been instrumental in
keeping the number of mishaps
low.
First, he said, is the mishap
reviewboard process. All mishaps
go before a reviewboard that not
only investigates the incident but
also demands corrective action
and follows up to make sure

Builder 1st Class Reno Perryman of Naval Mo-
bile Construction Battalion 4 has been named the
2011 Marvin G. Shields Medal winner.
Im honored, completely shocked and ecstatic,
said Perryman, of Tulare, Calif.
Named in honor of Congressional Medal of

of the Naval Construction Force and has upheld
the highest traditions and legacy of the U.S. Navy
Seabees.
Perryman distinguished himself through sus-
tained superior performance at NMCB 4s detach-
ment Payne in Afghanistan. His operational exper-

Capt. Larry Vasquez had been
the commanding officer of Naval
Base Ventura County (NBVC) for
less than a month when he was
hit with a question posed to sev-
eral of his predecessors: Why
doesnt housing at NBVC Point
Mugu have air conditioning?
With Earth Day coming up
Sunday,
April 22,
Vasquez said
that now is
the perfect
time to an-
swer that question and any
others dealing with air condition-
ing at NBVC.
There are several reasons
NBVC housing does not have air
conditioning. Chief among these
are the cost to install and operate
air conditioning in a part of the
country that rarely gets hot
enough to require it.
Thanks to a heavy marine lay-
er and offshore breezes, this part
of Ventura County stays rela-
tively temperate year-round.
Wheres the air
conditioning at
Point Mugu?

This edition, Im using this section to ask
YOU questions. I want your feedback and value
your input regarding services we provide to
Sailors and their families here at Naval Base
Ventura County (NBVC).
I get a lot of questions about housing, rang-
ing from questions about air conditioning ad-
dressed on Page 1 to those about services we
provide, such as maintenance. What I dont get
enough of, except for a yearly survey, is feed-
back about what you think about those services.
Lincoln Military Housing is asking for your
feedback using surveys rating their maintenance
and customer service efforts on a scale of 1 to 5.
We at NBVC want to hear from you as well. Do
you live in on-base housing? Tell us how were
doing!
How would you rate the quality of your on-
base housing? Would you recommend on-base
housing to your friends and family?
What about our responsiveness to your
needs? When you make a maintenance call,
are you satisfied with the response time and
customer service you receive?
Tell us how were doing. Tell us what
youd change if you could and what you
wouldnt change at all. We want to know!
Please feel free to use the Ask the Captain
link on our website at http://cnic.navy.mil/
ventura/index.htm, which has been revital-
ized thanks to our new public affairs officer,
Kimberly Gearhart.
Please continue offering suggestions and
asking questions to the link listed above or
by sending an e-mail to lighthouse@navy.

As Ive said before, you may not like the
answer, but we will give it to you straight!

Sailors fromNaval Base Ventura Coun-
ty helped spruce up E.O. Green Junior
High School this month as a way to earn
points for the Corporate Games.
On a rainy Wednesday, April 11, eight
volunteers began painting murals and
decorations on the outer walls that were
protected by covered walkways.
Street signsbearing positive character
traits were painted on the walls, including
Trustworthiness Trail, Responsibility
Road, Fairness Drive and Caring
Circle. The main court now bears the
name, Citizenship Court.
A large multicolored mural now graces
the courtyard. Featuring the colors of the
rainbow, its symbols depict love, joy, spir-
it, celebration, community, equality and
diversity.
Together, we are better! it reads.

That giant flat-screen TVlooks great
in your living room. Its the heavy big-
box TV thats now the problem.
Friday, April 20, is the day to get rid
of it as Naval Base Ventura County

including computers, print cartridges,
televisionsets, fax machines, keyboards,
laptops, cables, wires, chargers, copiers
and cell phones.
Not acceptable are refrigerators, tires,
batteries, light bulbs or fluorescent
tubes and large appliances.
The Port Hueneme event will run
from8 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the parking lot
next to Bldg. 1336, near the Grinder.
The Point Mugu event will run from 9
to 11 a.m. in the parking lot behind
Bldg. 613, at the corner of Laguna
Road and Ronald Reagan Boulevard.
The base has several other events

On Thursday, April 19, the Environ-
mental Division will be on hand for the

Spring breaks are over and the count-
down to the end of the school year has
begun. Thoughts of days at the beach and
family vacations are in students minds.
Homework-free evenings and sleeping in
on weekdays are within sight.
However, before summer begins, stu-
dents must sharpen their No. 2 pencils,
rest up and eat well to be prepared for the
annual season of standardized tests.
Every state has a form of standardized
testing given to students to track perfor-
mance. Californias choice of testing is
STAR(Standardized Testing and Report-
ing), also called the CSTs (California Stan-
dards Tests). These tests are given to stu-
dents in grades 2-12.
State officials use STAR test results to
monitor a schools academic progress.
Results are used to calculate each schools
Academic Performance Index (API), a
major component of the states ranking
system for schools. Federal officials use
STAR results to ensure compliance with
the requirements of the No Child Left
Behind (NCLB) Act of 2001. The NCLB
Act requires all schools to meet specific
academic goals. This test allows the
schools, students and teachers to demon-
strate that the learning goals are being
met.
As parents, it is important to knowhow
you can support your children and their
teachers during STAR testing. Students
may experience some anxiety about the
tests. Some test anxiety is normal and may
help students prepare more effectively by
working more efficiently and remaining
focused during testing. However, too much
anxiety can negatively affect perfor-
mance.
It is important to remind students that
the purpose of the test is evaluate what
they have learned thus far in the school
year. There should be no need to study or
learn new skills for the test.
Here are some strategies to help your
students reduce test anxiety:
Discuss the test openly and in a posi-
tive way. Explain that this test is an op-
portunity to demonstrate what theyve
learned.
Have realistic expectations of your
childs performance while encouraging
his/her best efforts. Although you will re-
ceive the test results at the end of the sum-
mer, there should be no pressure regarding
what you expect those test results to be.
Emphasize that the test is only one
measure of academic performance. This
test will not determine if a student passes
or fails a class or grade level. Teachers will
also use class performance, in-class tests
and homework to gauge students prog-
ress.
Emphasize that test scores do not de-
termine a persons worth. Not all students
excel at taking tests, just as not all students
excel at math or English or art. Emphasize
your students strengths, and the weak-
nesses will also improve.
Also important during testing is to note
the dates on a family calendar. Ensure that
all doctor appointments or any other rea-
son to miss school are scheduled around
the testing dates. Ensure students are get-
ting ample rest and eating healthful foods.
A tired and hungry student has a difficult
time focusing on algebra or any subject.
Also, testing usually means students will
be seated for longer than usual periods of
time. If certain foods give your child extra
energy, please stay clear of those foods
the mornings of testing.
Most importantly, encourage your stu-
dents daily to do their best. Knowing they
have their parents support will give them
the confidence to focus their energy on
demonstrating their knowledge.
To find out when your childs school is
administering STAR testing, please con-
tact your childs school or teacher.
For any education-related questions,
please contact the NBVC school liaison
officer at 989-5211 or monica.james@navy.

When I was a young boy, there was
nothing better than knowing summer va-
cation was just around the corner.
Maybe I am dating myself a bit here,
but some of my classmates used to sing
this silly little ditty just before school
ended: No more pencils, no more books,
no more teachers dirty looks!
The truth is we all had great teachers
who taught with great passion and infinite
patience. But kids being kids, we were ex-
cited about getting out of school for
awhile.
Looking back, some of my best sum-
mers were spent at overnight or day camps.
Instead of learning multiplication tables
or making grammatical diagrams of sen-
tences, I learned about other important
life skills. I will never forget, for example,
my learning how to put a wiggling worm
on a fishing hook without snagging the
sharp barbs in my finger. Equally impor-
tant, after catching your fish, you had to
learn howto clean it, then fry it on a large
skillet on the campfire.
I was also blessed to have a fantastic
outdoors counselor who taught me the
basics of astronomy, botany and land
navigation.
In other words, an important growth
and education process of a young boy or
girl doesnt happen only in a classroom
setting.
This summer I want to offer an invita-
tion to families who have kids to join us
for this years Vacation Bible School.
This is a wonderful opportunity to learn
about the timeless values of faith and
family, as well as take part in the normal
fun and outside games a camp has to of-
fer.
While this week is not an overnight
event, it will still be a tremendous time
for your youngsters to make new friends,
laugh and play for awhile before school
begins in the fall again.
If you are interested in sending your
children to our Naval Base Ventura
County (NBVC) Chapel Vacation Bible
School, or if you want to know what

Not surprisingly, the majority of service
members in the U.S. military are renters,
given that most live in base housing.
Although service members may escape
the burden of home repairs and mort-
gages by not owning a home, they still
have a responsibility for their belongings.
Realizing that disasters can and do strike
all homesteads and that the insurance a
landlord carries only covers the damage
done to the property itself, renters insur-
ance should be a priority for anyone mak-
ing a home in a rental.
Documentation of your valuables by
either photographs or video will help you
compile a detailed list of what items you
want protected fromloss. Also, its best to
record model and serial numbers and to
keep receipts of all items you would want
to replace if stolen or lost in a fire. Having
a detailed list of your belongings will pro-
vide documentation for your insurance
company to compensate you accordingly.
Consider the difference in premium price
for depreciation vs. replacement value.
These records should be kept in a safe
place away fromthe dwelling, such as safe-
deposit box or a close relatives house;
otherwise the record may be destroyed
along with the premises.
Shopping around is the wisest ap-
proach to finding the best option for your
renters insurance. Be certain you are com-
paring prices for the exact same coverage
between companies. You can start with
whoever provides your vehicle insurance,
since most companies offer discounts for
insurers with multiple policies.
A basic policy is quite inexpensive, ap-
proximately $10 to $20 a month. Like
other insurance policies, the price of the
premium adjusts based on the deductible.
If you have a higher deductible, which is
the amount you must pay for any losses
to your personal property before the insur-
ance company pays, then your premium
should be smaller.
Other provisions can be included in
renters insurance beyond protecting your
belongings, such as paying extra to add a
rider for big ticket items that have high
value or to add loss of use for coverage
of temporary housing while your living
quarters are uninhabitable after a disaster.
Liability coverage may also be included,
which would protect you financially if
someone were injured or suffered dam-
ages at your residence.
Protecting your valuables is your re-
sponsibility as a renter. Renters insurance
provides protection fromloss of your valu-
able property and possessions. Obtaining
this valuable coverage will guard from
disasters and will secure a future of hap-
piness and well-being.
For further information or to apply for
renters insurance, contact the agent of
your choice.

NCTC
The Naval Construction Training Cen-
ter (NCTC) at Naval Base Ventura Coun-
ty, Port Hueneme, recently welcomed 30
Naval Junior Reserve Officers Training
Corps (NJROTC) students from John F.
Kennedy High School in Granada Hills.
The visitors, aspiring Navy leaders be-
tween the ages of 14 and 18, received
hands-on training with Chemical, Bio-
logical andRadiological (CBR) drills. They
also took part in teamwork exercises dur-
ing the Leadership Reaction course, in
which they tried to cross a cold pool of
water with a 55-gallon drum and two am-
munition cans.
NCTC students prepped the course be-
fore turning it over to the students.
We needed to fill the water pit, clear
the weeds and ensure that safety measures
were in place, said Builder 2nd Class
(SCW) Samuel Gorgas. The students
safety is our first priority. All this training
is meaningless if one of them is injured.
Brandon Keyy, 14, was part of the first
team assigned to the course. After some
trial and error, the team ultimately suc-
ceeded with no one falling into the wa-
ter.
I didnt want to fall in and get wet,
Keyy said. It is overcast and the breeze
is cold. It would have been a long day.
All students were not so lucky: Three
ended up falling into the icy waters be-
low.
Gorgas said he enjoyed watching the
teenagers confidence increase as the day
progressed.
It was amazing to see the leaders
emerge, he said. I watched as the fear
was replaced with excitement once they
realized that they could champion their
obstacle.
I was very proud to be a part of such
a worthwhile event.
The NJROTC program, established in
1964, is managed by retired Navy, Marine
Corps and Coast Guard officers and en-
listed personnel. The curriculum empha-
sizes citizenship, leadership development
and maritime heritage.
The commander of the Granada Hills
NJROTC unit is retired Lt. Col. Charles
Mortensen, a 25-year Marine Corps vet-
eran dedicated to the professional develop-
ment of the teens under his command.
Mortensen was an A-6 Intruder pilot who
retired from active duty in 1993.
Both of my parents were teachers, and
I always wanted to be a teacher, he said.
After I retired, I wanted to return to the
[San Fernando] Valley, so when this op-
portunity came along, I jumped at it.
Mortensen has high praise for the pro-
gram.
Not only do the students learn leader-
ship, but they earn physical fitness credits
as well, he said. They learn teamwork
and to take care of each other.

makeshift bridge during a recent visit to the Naval Construction Training Center at Naval
Base Ventura County, Port Hueneme.
Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC)
has installed three drop boxes where any-
one with base access can turn in old or
unused prescription medications.
At NBVC Port Hueneme, the drop box
is at the west entrance door of the Navy
Exchange. This is the door next to the
patio, which leads into the food court.
At NBVC Point Mugu, the drop box is
next to the ice box as you exit the Navy
Exchange.
At NBVC San Nicolas Island, the drop
box is just inside the galley.
The Drug Enforcement Administration
has scheduled the fourth National Pre-
scription Drug Take-Back Day for Sat-
urday, April 28. This would be an ideal
time to rummage through your medicine
cabinet and safely dispose of any un-
wanted, unused prescription drugs.
On the last Take-Back Day, Oct. 29,
2011, Americans turned in more than
188 tons of unwanted or expired medi-
cations at the 5,327 take-back sites that
were available in all 50 states and U.S.
territories. When the results of the three
prior Take-Back Days are combined,
498.5 tons of medication have been
safely disposed of in the past 13
months.

VISITING DIGNITARIES
Registration is now open at the website
active.com for three major events coming
up at Naval Base Ventura County.
First up is the Mud Run, set for May
19. Every year, the Naval Construction
Training Center turns Dozer Field into a
messy obstacle course full of muddy
mountains, water pits, ropes, logs and tires.
Participants start with a two-mile run,
then literally hit the ground.
This years event starts at 12:30 p.m.,
with check-in beginning at 10:30 a.m. Due
to the depth of water in the pits, partici-
pants must be at least 16 years old. Cost
is $10 for military, $20 for civilians. All
participants and guests 18 and older must
be U.S. citizens and showphoto identifica-
tion to gain base access. Deadline to reg-
ister at active.com is Friday, May 11.
Also coming up are the Admirals Cup
Triathlon on June 23 and the Wounded
Warrior Half Marathon on Sept. 15.

OKINAWA, JapanSeabees fromU.S.
Naval Mobile Construction Battalion
(NMCB) 40 recently volunteered at Hi-
jagawa Retirement Home in Okinawa to
spread optimism and knowledge with lo-
cal disabled citizens.
The six Seabees, together with a fewU.S.
Marines, played games with more than 30
patients, including the Hokey Pokey dance
and Musical Wheelchairs.
What I really liked most about the trip
was watching the patients smile and laugh.
They had a great time and they really
enjoyed it when we danced with them,
said Religious Program Specialist 3rd
Class Michael Grant.
The Feb. 15 visit ended with patients
giving all the volunteers mementos that
said thank you in Japanese.
It was an amazing feeling being able
to help children and adults with dis-
abilities and show them that we care,
said Construction Electrician 3rd Class
Christina Azcona. It was a great
time, and I would do it again any
day.

THAILAND Seabees from U.S.
Naval Mobile Construction Battalion
(NMCB) 40, together with members of
the Royal Thai Navy and the Royal Engi-
neer Corps of the Malaysian Army, re-
cently completed a school building in
Thailand as part of the multinational ex-
ercise called Cobra Gold.
Atotal of 47 military personnel worked
together on the Engineering Civil Assis-
tance Project in Chonburi Province. They
finished a 253-square-meter building for
the Wat Chaloemlap Wararam School,
which will accommodate up to 60 fourth-
, fifth- and sixth-graders.
The language barrier is challenging but
doesnt seemto be hindering the progress,
project crewleader Steelworker 2nd Class
Daniel Strompolis said.
Added Builder Constructionman An-
thony Bianco, We draw a lot of pictures
and use hand signals to help us commu-
nicate.
The groundbreaking ceremony was held
on Jan. 16, and the formal ribbon-cutting
ceremony was just four weeks later on Feb.
14.
The teachers, students, parents and
community want to thank the U.S. Navy,
the Royal Thai Navy and the Malaysian
Army for building this schoolhouse,said
the principal, Praneet Maksap.

KOROR, Palau Seabees from Naval
Mobile Construction Battalion (NMCB)
40s Civic Action Team Palau recently
joined community members in downtown
Koror for a monthly 5/10Krun to promote
fitness and healthy living.
Seabees staffed water stations along the
course, and Hospital Corpsman 1st Class
Tabot Kwo served as the events medic. In
all, 11 members of NMCB 40 were in-
volved in the event, which was sponsored
by the Palau National Olympic Commit-
tee.
Exercise and healthy living are becom-
ing high priorities in Palau, where Presi-
dent Johnson Toribiong recently declared
a state of emergency in the fight against
non-communicable diseases, including
obesity and diabetes.
Physical activity can lower blood
pressure, cut down on diabetes incidence,
increase weight loss and is really the best
overall prescription that can be given
against non-communicable diseases,
Kwo said.
Seabees staffed the finish line and re-
corded the participants as they passed.
All runners and walkers received a small
towel as a token for their participa-
tion.
This was a great opportunity to get
out in the community, meet new people
and cast a light on healthy living! said
Engineering Aid 3rd Class Kyle Dechy.

Seabees assigned to Naval Mobile Con-
struction Battalion (NMCB) 5 were fea-
tured as guest speakers at a meeting of the
local chapter of the Navy Seabee Veterans
of America (SVA) April 2.
The SVA is a non-profit organization
composed of active duty and retired vet-
erans of the Naval Construction Force and
Civil Engineer Corps of the U.S. Navy.
The meeting was at the Seabee Museum
at Naval Base Ventura County, Port Hue-
neme.
The older Seabees are impressed with
the skills, technology and knowledge of
the new Seabees, said Seth Johnson, the
Navy SVAIsland X-7 commander. There
are things we never even dreamed of that
are now available.
The Seabees of NMCB 5 provided vet-
erans insight on projects and milestones
accomplished during their recently com-
pleted deployment to Europe and Afri-
ca.
The veterans, in turn, inspired their
younger counterparts.
I found it truly amazing to be in front
of all of that history and listen to the sto-
ries they were telling, said Chief Builder
Courtland Sawyer. I have a great sense
of pride being able to represent NMCB 5
and speak on behalf of the command.
Several of the retired veterans in atten-
dance were once attached to NMCB 5
during their service, and they appreciated
the update on modern-day construction
operations provided by current NMCB 5
Seabees.

Seabees fromNaval Mobile Construction
Battalion (NMCB) 3s detail in Dire Dawa,
Ethiopia, have completed work on a soccer
field for the local people in the village of
Gota.
The Seabees cleared and leveled an area
just outside of town and erected goal posts,
turning a desolate hillside into a safe place
for the children of the village to play.
The soccer field is a partnership between
the U.S. Embassy, the U.S. Agency for In-
ternational Development and the Ethio-
pian government.
We recognize that sports, especially soc-
cer, play a huge role in this society. Building
a field for themto play on was an easy way
to improve their quality of recreation, have
a positive impact on the community and
build a good relationship with them,said
Lt. j.g. Sarah Ursetti. We leveled out a
fairly rocky area and improved the sites
natural drainage to ensure a safe and long-
lasting place to play.
The rocky patch of land was cleared and
graded over three days by Equipment Op-
erator 3rd Class Jordan Burdette and
Equipment Operator Constructionman
Joshua Sprott.
After we finished the project and saw
all of the kids playing and having fun, we
realized that we did something that the
community can really enjoy, said Sprott.
You never know, maybe well see one of
them playing soccer on TV someday.

CAMP SHIELDS, Okinawa Seabees
fromU.S. Naval Mobile Construction Bat-
talion (NMCB) 40 participated in a week-
long Field Training Exercise (FTX) while
forward-deployed to Okinawa, Japan.
During the FTX, the battalion conduct-
edround-robintraining, establisheda com-
pany-sized base camp and executed a
simulated Airfield Damage Repair (ADR)
mission.
They also trained on Enemy Prisoners
of War handling; weapons familiarization;
land navigation; gear familiarization; es-
tablishing and maintaining primary lines
of defense; command and control; operat-
ing a Reverse Osmosis Water Purification
Unit; and ADR operations.
The battalion conducted multiple train-
ing scenarios testing Entry Control Point
operations; patrols; convoys; Chemical,
Biological andRadiological defense; as well
as various civilian and enemy scenarios.
Participants were able to learn the skills
they need to handle multiple new tasks
within the battalion.
I stood the fighting position watch (bet-
ter known to Seabees as a pit), which is
the first line of defense for a battalion,
saidYeomanSeamanJose Casiano. Stand-
ing this watch gave me a different perspec-
tive on what actually goes on, because Im
used to standing watches in the Command
Operations Center. Going throughthe task-
ing qualification classes taught me how to
properly fill out a range card and how to
complete a fire plan, whichhelpedme while
doing the different training scenarios dur-
ing FTX.
The training focused on the practical ap-
plication of Section 301 of the Seabee
Combat Warfare (SCW) curriculum, con-
sisting of fire plandevelopment, employing
a grenade, setting upa one-mantent, break-
down and assembly of M-9 and M-16 ser-
vice rifles, hand signals, military map read-
ing and camouflage.
The first and second day before FTXis
lane training to get your 301 Section signed
off for SCW tasking to get members mas-
tered in those topics, said NMCB 40
Military Advisor Gunnery Sergeant Boyde
Allen.
Twelve Seabees worked closely with the
U.S. Air Forces Red Horse Airmen at
Kadena Air Base to complete an ADR
mission, which consisted of repairing a 30-
by-20-foot crater and developing a mini-
mum operating strip to allow an aircraft
to safely land on a damaged runway.
The ADRmission was completed by us-
ing various pieces of Civil Engineering
Support Equipment, including front-end
loaders, graders, dump trucks, rollers, ex-
cavators and kick brooms. Even with an
inexperienced crew, the ADRmission was
completed in five hours and 15 minutes,
exceeding expectations and exemplifying
the true can do spirit of the Seabees.
Working with Red Horse was an amaz-
ing experience!saidEnsignAllisonClarke,
ADRmission officer in charge. The days
were long, but you could tell that the Sea-
bees really enjoyed working alongside the
Air Force and learning more about how
they operate and the different types of en-
gineering strategies and equipment they
use.

My father was an artist, he explained
as he added finishing touches to a flower
painted earlier by a student. I think I got
that gene.
Hes hoping the bright spots on the
school buildings will bring hope and a
positive attitude.
If these can inspire one child, one
teacher, we will have done something
right, he said.
Lt. Deann Coleman, the community
service coordinator for NBVC, said the
base had already planned to help beau-
tify E.O. Green, with which it has a formal
partnership. The Corporate Games pushed
up the schedule.
Carrying out a community service proj-
ect earns a team 25 spirit points in the
competition, which began March 28 and
ends May 12.

Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC)
has won five medals in the eight events
played so far in the Corporate
Games.
Nearly 300 people from NBVC are
taking part in the games, which pit lo-
cal organizations and businesses against
one another in events ranging from
miniature golf and Texas Hold Em to
basketball and coed softball.
The games run from March 28 to May
12. The base is in Division AA, for com-
panies and organizations with 500 or
more employees, with its major com-
petitors being the County of Ventura,
City of Ventura and Amgen.
There is a really strong and cohesive
team spirit, said Matt Wall, Corporate
Games organizer for Morale, Welfare
and Recreation. I love the energy and
teamwork that our teams exemplify.
NBVC won a gold medal in bocce
ball, silver medals in disk golf and in
the 5K run for men ages 50 to 59, and
bronze medals for indoor volleyball and
team tennis, mixed doubles.

Between October and December of 2011, 15 Seabees from NMCB 5 volunteered for 593 hours total to renovate the Gende Gerade Playground in Ethiopia during their off hours.
Lt. Greg Uvila, chaplain of Naval Mo-
bile Construction Battalion 5, and Chief
Builder (SCW) Debra Scroggs, safety of-
ficer, traveled on an 18-day Det Swing
before returning to homeport in February.
The trip was designed to provide morale
and spiritual support to detachments in
the African and European Areas of Op-
eration. The duo visited four detachments
and traveled across two continents, visiting
approximately 250 NMCB 5 Seabees and
seeing the work they were doing. Here is
some of what they saw.

Lighthouse editor
Still less than a year old, the
youth swim team from Naval
Base Ventura County (NBVC) is
making waves, hosting its first
swim meet last month and show-
ing improvement in all areas of
competition.
There are 26 swimmers on the
Navy Seals, ranging in age from
7 to 14.
These last few meets, the kids
have really stepped up, said
coach Drew Isais, also the head
lifeguard for Morale, Welfare and
Recreation. For all of our swim-
mers, the speeds are higher and
the strokes are getting more re-
fined. Its amazing howfar theyve
come.
Four teams competed in the
March 17 meet at NBVC Port
Hueneme. About 250 swimmers
and parents were expected, but
cold weather that day kept the
crowd count down.
It was an awesome day, said
Brett Lane, youth sports and fit-
ness coordinator for NBVC. The
air was cold, but the water was
warmand all of the families were
smiling.
Lane said parents helped staff
the snack bar, and volunteers
from the Naval Construction
Training Center served as time-
keepers and helped direct traffic.
The Camarillo YMCA supplied
ribbons for all the events.
Lane had high praise for
Aquatics Manager Gerry Le-
gaspi.
The aquatics staff was on
point with organizing the kids
and coordinating the heats,Lane
said.
Isais said the Navy Seals have
a secret weapon in their arsenal:
their name.
Weve been to a couple of
meets where a few of the kids on
the other teams were nervous and
scared of our kids, he said,
laughing. They thought we were
sending out the real Navy
SEALs.

NFELC Public Affairs Office
Two Seabees from the Naval Facilities
Expeditionary Logistics Center (NFELC)
braved cold weather and strong winds
March 18 and ran from Dodger Stadium
to Santa Monica to complete the 2012 Los
Angeles Marathon.
Chief Construction Mechanic (SCW/
IDW) Jake Kruzel and Chief Construc-
tion Electrician (SCW/EXW) Cory
Wright, both Mobile Utilities Support
Equipment technicians, finished the 26.2-
mile race in 4 hours and 41 minutes and
4 hours and 3 minutes, respectively.
Running is a requirement for Navy Sail-
ors, but theres a big difference between
running a few miles a few times a week to
pass semi-annual Navy fitness tests and
training for and completing a 26.2-
mile marathon.
Kruzel, who has been running since
middle school, ran 35 to 40 miles a week
for two months to prepare.
Wright, who never ran before he joined
the Navy 15 years ago, said he didnt get
to train as much as he does for other
marathons, but he finished the race any-
way.
Like each of the more than 23,000 mar-
athon participants, Kruzel and Wright had
personal reasons for pushing themselves
to complete this physically and mentally
exhausting accomplishment.
Kruzels first marathon was the 2003
Seattle Marathon, which he ran to satisfy
a personal goal; however, he decided to
enter the 2012 LA Marathon because
Wright asked to help him train.
Wright said he got hooked on mara-
thons in Afghanistan last year where he
ran the Shadow Boston Marathon, an of-
ficial absentee race affiliated with the Bos-
ton Marathon.
After doing that I was hooked, follow-
ing it with the San Francisco Marathon
last July and now the Los Angeles Mara-
thon, he explained.
Finding a partner who is willing to put
in the time and effort with you (and suffer
through the pain!) will make it much more
enjoyable. I want to thank Jake for com-
mitting to do this with me. I trained and
ran the San Francisco Marathon solo, and
it definitely makes it more difficult to stay
on track, Wright said.
Kruzel and Wright both say the last six
miles of the 27th annual LA Marathon
were the toughest part. In addition to the
pain caused by running 20 miles, the wind
picked up for the last six miles and they
had to push through it.
It was all heart after the 20-mile mark,
Kruzel said.
Running does more for Kruzel and
Wright than just keep them in shape.
Obviously it will help immensely in
your physical readiness for the military,
but it definitely goes further than that,
Wright said. Physical conditioning will
help with your health and overall well be-
ing. I am more alert and feel much better
now than I did five years ago when I first
started running more than the Navy re-
quires and working toward running longer
distances.
Kruzels next race will be the Run for
Your Lives Race, a zombie-infested 5K
obstacle course.
Wrights next race will be the NewYork
City Marathon, if his race application is
accepted.

Marathon March 18.
Did you run the LA Marathon or are you
training for a special event? Let us know
at lighthouse@navy.mil.
Tell us your story
Are you interested in running a mara-
thon? Jake Kruzel and and Cory Wright
offer the following advice:
Be realistic with your goals, Kruzel
says. Training, commitment and self-sac-
rifice are required. Ask other runners for
pointers: Tape your toes and heels, in-
crease your hydration well before the race,
get properly fitted for good running shoes,
etc. Train with a partner.
Wright agreed that training is the most
critical element to success.
First and foremost would be to ensure
you get proper training prior to attempt-
ing a marathon, he said. Twenty-six-
point-two miles is very hard on the body
and can do more harm than good if you
are not prepared. I would also warn peo-
ple about jumping in too quickly. Your
body needs time to adjust to the added
mileage, so dont go out today and try to
run 12 to 14 miles if the longest you have
done recently is one to three miles at a
time. Anyone who wants to complete a
marathon can do it; it just takes dedication
and training!
Kruzel said a supportive running part-
ner and a supportive family were also key
to his success.
Having a running partner like Cory
was a significant positive influence and
motivation, he said. The most motivat-
ing thing that got me through those last
six miles was knowing that my wife and
18-month-old daughter were waiting for
me at the finish line.
Wright said he encourages anyone who
is interested in long distance running to
go for it.
There are websites, people, running
clubs, etc., out there that are very helpful
in getting prepared, he said. I used to
hate running and was not very good at it,
but it has now become an addiction of
sorts. The sense of accomplishment is
amazing once you look at what you put
your body through and the things you
were able to overcome to get there.

To date he has provided more
than 50 classes to ESCemployees
and many more to external audi-
ences. Mack is also a stalwart in
his community, serving as an el-
der and as a mentor to his
churchs youth fellowship.
It was an honor and privilege
to be the first among many who
will be selected in the future,
said Mack. Peggy Craig is such
a special person. Glad I could
meet her, spend time with her and
honor her in this way.
The Peggy B. Craig Lifetime
Service Award was established
this year in honor of a longtime
NAVFAC headquarters employ-
ee to honor NAVFAC civil ser-
vants with 20 or more years of
selfless and dedicated service
to NAVFAC, the 1st Naval Con-
struction Division, the Center for
Seabees and Facilities Engineer-
ing or any subordinate unit.
Criteria considered include a
nominees impact on the organi-
zation and people they serve,
demonstration of a strong and
consistent record of professional

KANEOHEBAY, Hawaii The Navys
energy future including the possibility
of someday using wave energy at San
Nicolas Island was the focus of a recent
two-day conference in Hawaii.
The Navy is committed to reducing our
dependence on fossil fuels and is leading
the way on the development of viable,
renewable energy sources,said Capt. Pete
Lynch, the Pacific vice commander of
Naval Facilities. NAVFAC Pacific is
working on ways to make the Navys shore
infrastructure more energy independent
and strengthen our energy security posi-
tion. The ocean is an untapped resource
and possible source of renewable energy.
The conferences we are hosting will help
us learn the new ocean energy technology
and systems that exist today.
Presentations were received from more
than 40 energy companies worldwide, and
renewable ocean energy information was
shared between private industry and Navy
engineers.
During the March 26-28 conference,
held at Marine Corps Base Hawaii,
Kaneohe Bay, it was announced that
the Navy, in partnership with the U.S.
Department of Energy, will select three
ocean energy power developers to oc-
cupy Wave Energy Test Site (WETS)
moorings at Kaneohe Bay. The selection
process has yet to begin.
If those tests are successful, the Navy
will consider using wave energy at San
Nicolas Island and San Clemente Is-
land.
Bob Fredrickson, division director of
the Naval Facilities Engineering Service
Centers Ocean Facilities Department,
located at Naval Base Ventura County,
Port Hueneme, said the conference was
beneficial, especially in one-on-one
meetings with industry.
Many of the companies had tech-
nologically advanced ideas, some of
which looked very promising, he
said.
Waves, other renewable energy
sources focus of recent conference

these courses.
What a great way to comple-
ment your training and subor-
dinate development for warfare,
he said. Anytime, anyplace, you
can access any course in any or-
der.
If, for example, fire team
leaders want to work with their
fire teams, they can just hit it!
This product offers multiple
ways to work towards your war-
fare pin, or simply improve your
teams knowledge and under-
standing of core principles.
The courses include hyperlinks
to up-to-date references, a glos-
sary and an acronym list. Con-
tent covers all learning objectives
in the SCWCommon Core PQS,
current Table of Allowance
(TOA) equipment, and graphic
images of commonly used forms
and documents.
The courses are available for
enrollment by visiting Navy e-
Learning > Browse Categories
> Department of the Navy
(DON) Training > Navy Con-
struction Force Training > Sea-
bee Combat Warfare > Seabee
Combat Warfare CommonCore.
All 13 courses will be listed on
two pages.
These SCW courses are de-
signed to complement existing
training delivery methods,said
the project lead, Chief Utilities-
man Eric Bailey of CSFE.
They are simply another tool
in our tool bags that better pre-
pare us for warfare qualifica-
tion and, ultimately, increase
combat readiness.
These courses are available
to newly reporting support per-
sonnel so they can start study-
ing as soon as they receive or-
ders to their qualifying units.
They can also be started by
CEC officers in the CEC Of-
ficers School (CECOS) Basic
Class and Seabees who are still
in A School.
Each course takes an average
of one to four hours to com-
plete, and upon successful
completion of the assessment,
the program generates a com-
pletion certificate.
We are a force capable of
adaptive force packages and
distributed operations, Mul-
holland said. So anywhere, in
any status, I can refine my war-
fare qualification.
Warfare pin courses now available
Maintenance work on and
around Naval Base Ventura
County (NBVC) has created

Harris Street at NBVCPort
Hueneme is being repaved, with
work expected to be completed

ris to 32nd Street. The credit
union is accessible as normal,
but through traffic is being
routed along 23rd Avenue to

credit union will be closed, and
customers will need to take side
roads to get there.

ficials say it is expected to
reopen in a week or two.

porarily closed for renova-
tions. The parking area and
the missile displays are

Help when you need it.
The Fleet & Family
Support Center
In a 2011 Presidential Proclamation,
President Barack Obama stated, At the
heart of our armed forces, service mem-
bers spouses keep our military families
on track. They balance family life, mil-
itary life and their careers, all while sup-
porting other military families and giving
back to their communities. They are
pillars of strength in their families.
Military spouses definitely break the
mold.They are not your typical spouses;
there are greater requirements for what
they have to be able to do and with-
stand.
Military spouses have an innate ability
to multi-task with infinite grace and cour-
age. Not only do they have to be indepen-
dent, but they also, at times, have to as-
sume the roles and responsibilities of both
husband and wife, mother and father.
They will mow the lawn and fix a leaky
toilet, all while ensuring the kids get their
homework done and have their boo-boos
mended. Willing to frequently relocate,
leave behind friends, jobs, and start anew
every few years, military spouses are also
the epitome of selflessness in their support
of their spouse.
We at the Fleet & Family Support Cen-
ter are aware of how difficult the military
spouses job is, and how crucial their role
is in ensuring mission readiness. We feel
they deserve at least one special day where
we are able to show our appreciation for
all they do.
President Reagan declared the Friday
before Mothers Day National Military
Spouse Appreciation Day, and in honor
of the military spouse, the Fleet & Fam-
ily Support Center is proud to announce
we are once again hosting a Military
Spouse Appreciation Event.
Last year, the event was a smash hit.
There were hair stylists, makeup artists
and massage therapists on hand pamper-
ing the spouses. There were refreshments,
resources and prizes. The event was such
an unexpected hit that lines were long
and many spouses had to wait, some-
times with young children, in order to
enjoy the services.
We plan to remedy the few problems
we encountered last year; this year we
are bringing in more stylists and more
makeup artists. We will also have some
entertainment on hand to keep the
children a little preoccupied while
mom is getting her hair and makeup
done, or enjoying a massage.
To all military spouses, thank you
again for all you do every day. We look
forward to seeing you at the Military
Spouse Appreciation Event, Thursday,
May 3, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the
Midway Community Center, Naval
Base Ventura County, Port Huen-
eme.

Egeler knows the importance of the
safety classes, which have been hailed
by the California Highway Patrol and

the classes dont do any good if riders

Hand-selected as officer-in-charge for
Patrol Base 87 construction, Perryman
displayed exceptional confidence and
poise as he led a team of 16 Seabees to
complete a patrol base that included three
bunkers, a 600-meter HESCO perimeter
berm, four tent decks and a hasty Com-
mand Operations Center structure to sus-
tain kinetic operations in Helmand Prov-
ince.
He then was selected to participate in
the construction management training
team for Regimental Combat Team 5, as-
sessing more than 100 Commanders
Emergency Response Program projects
across four Helmand Province districts.
Those projects were valued at $40 mil-
lion.
Dedicated and innovative, Perryman
taught basic construction techniques to
Civil Affairs Group Marines and Afghan
contractors, contributing greatly to con-
tracted construction safety and quality.
Perryman credits a back to the basics
philosophy for his successful 10-year ca-
reer. Now at his third command, he has
served with NMCB133 in Gulfport, Miss.,

NMCB 40
DIEGO GARCIA Seven
degrees south of the equator, Sea-
bees from U.S. Naval Mobile
Construction Battalion (NMCB)
40 labor under the sun, wiping
sweat from their brows, their
muscles straining. Humor and
playful banter mix with the crash-
ing of the ocean as the young
Americans work together to im-
prove life on the tiny island.
Scenes such as this are not un-
familiar, as Naval Construction
Force personnel have been de-
ploying to the remote coral atoll
since the early 1970s, when the
United States and the United
Kingdomagreed to fund the con-
struction of a United States Navy
communications station. The site
was intended to breach a gap in
global communications and aid
the travel of U.S. and British
ships and aircraft in the Indian
Ocean.
In January 1971, the first group
of Seabees tasked to Diego Gar-
cia arrived. Among them were
personnel from Amphibious
Construction Battalion 2 and 160
men from NMCB 40, who
promptly set to work establishing
the remote base. The early proj-
ects on the 6,700-acre island in-
cluded a temporary Seabee camp,
water and electrical systems, din-
ing facilities, laundry facilities,
refrigeration and storage facilities
and a temporary 3,500-foot air-
strip. The can-do spirit of the
early Fighting 40 Seabees enabled
them to establish a permanent
base in just two years.
That spirit has endured to this
day, nearly 41 years later, as
NMCB 40 once again sets foot
on the no-longer insignificant
island. Now a large-scale, fully
functional Naval Support Facil-
ity, Diego Garcia still benefits
fromthe hard work and expertise
of Seabees.

At the end of the day we still pull together despite
harsh conditions to complete our tasking.

40 arrived in early November 2011 to continue improving
living standards for civilian contractors that provide many
of the public services on the island.
Its a good project. Its almost like a builder C school,
says the crew leader, Builder 2nd Class Johan Sanchez. It
should be a lot of
on-the-job-training
for the troops.
Morale remains
high on a day-to-
day basis, despite a
heavy workload
and extreme weath-
er conditions. Con-
stant heat, humid-
ity and torrential
downpours create
difficulties for the
small crew, but as
Builder 3rd Class
Christian Guzman
cheerfully said, We attack this project like a ferocious bear,
despite the blazing hot sun storm every day.
At the end of the day we still pull together despite harsh
conditions to complete our tasking, adds Utilitiesman 2nd
Class Marshall Yeung.
NMCB 40 is scheduled to remain on the island for a total
of eight months before returning to Port Hueneme for de-
commissioning, the second decom in the battalions his-
tory.
Several members of the detail are experiencing their first
deployment. Even though this is Fighting 40s last deploy-
ment, they all recognize the legacy that has been established
at this location and strive daily to perpetuate it.
We want to leave a good impression here. This is my
last deployment with 40, but its a good one. Im glad to
be here, doing good work, said Builder 3rd Class Xavier
Spencer.
This positive sentiment stays true to the Seabee values.
For 40 years, Naval Mobile Construction Battalion 40 has
displayed its can-do spirit at Diego Garcia, building an
almost insignificant port into an essential and fully func-
tional Naval Base. Though Fighting 40 may not return, it
will have left a permanent footprint upon these shores.

DIEGO GARCIA, British Indian
Ocean Territory Fifteen Seabees
from U.S. Naval Mobile Construction
Battalion (NCMB) 40 attended last
months Seabee Ball at Diego Garcia.
Unlike most traditional Seabee balls,
which call for military dress uniforms
and formal wear, this years ball at Di-
ego Garcia suggested military and civil-
ian attendees wear island luau attire.
Hawaiian shirts and flowered dresses
added to the color of the island dcor
at the beachside pavilion and restaurant
hosting the event. After dinner, the best
Hawaiian shirts were selected by the
crowd, and winners were given carved
Seabee mugs as prizes.
Roasted pig, chicken adobo and oth-
er authentic Filipino dishes were served
to guests in the open-air dining hall.
Also served were pancit, or rice noodles,
and lumpia, which are similar to spring
rolls, as well as iced tea and cider.
The food was delicious, said Build-
er 3rd Class Christian Guzman.
Also in attendance were members of
Underwater Construction Team (UCT)
2, based out of Naval Base Ventura
County, Port Hueneme, Seabees as-
signed to Public Works Diego Garcia,
several members of Naval Support Fa-
cility Diego Garcia (NSFDG) and many
civilian contractors who work closely
with Seabees on the island.
The evening drew to an end with
good-natured competitions on the beach
to determine who possessed the best
Seabee skills. Categories included
construction math, hammering nails
and speed-sawing. Safety equipment was
provided, and though close, Construc-
tion Electrician 3rd Class Rob Schnet-
tler proved to be victorious, earning
himself a handcrafted Seabee statue.
The ball was unlike the typical for-
mal affairs we are used to at home, said
the details officer in charge, Lt. j.g. Mi-
chael Feeney. It offered a relaxed, ca-
sual environment and allowed guests to
reflect on the history of Seabees on this
island, and elsewhere around the
world.

nologies such as Unmanned Aerial Ve-
hicles and NBVCs Improvised Explosive
Device (IED) reaction training facility,
where military and law enforcement per-
sonnel are trained in modern counter-IED
practices.
In addition to guest speakers and pan-
el discussions, the expo will feature class-
es, including the popular Howto Become
a Navy Contractor, which walks partici-
pants through the basic steps of getting
started contracting with the federal gov-
ernment. Also included are insights on
becoming eligible for government contract
awards and how to bid on government
contracts.
NBVC, home to more than 80 military
commands, is the largest employer in Ven-
tura County. Another workshop, How
to Get a Job on Base, provides an over-
view of what it takes to become a civilian
employee of the Department of the
Navy.
Ajob fair will feature Human Resource
representatives from on-base commands
discussing employment opportunities.
There is no charge to attend the job fair,
and job-seeking veterans are urged to stop
by. Cost to attend the expo is $50 through
April 30 and $75 afterwards.
The expo is sponsored by Ventura
County Community College District and
hosted by Ventura County Economic De-
velopment Association(VCEDA), TRIAD
created by VCEDA, the Consortium for
National Defense Security and Disaster
Preparedness, the Santa Barbara and
Channel Islands councils of the Navy

Expo set for May 8 in Camarillo
There are only 41 days each year, on aver-
age, when the high exceeds 75 degrees.
Above 80? Only 15 days.
Thats according to 67 years of tem-
perature recordings compiled by the Na-
tional Oceanic and Atmospheric Admin-
istration.
Assuming people turn on their air con-
ditioners on those 41 days of 75-degree
weather even though the recommend-
ed temperature is 78 in todays energy-sav-
ing times and keep them on for six
hours, it would cost NBVC $14 million to
install, run and maintain air conditioning
over 10 years.
Cmdr. Michael Obermiller, head of the
Public Works Department, calculated the
cost.
The additional electricity cost per house-
hold per year would be $137 if the air
conditioning were to be turned on for six
hours on the 41 days of 75-degree weath-
er.
If they turned on air conditioning only
on the 15 days of 80-degree weather, the
additional cost would be $50.
NBVC Port Hueneme has 498 single-
family homes without air conditioning and
NBVC Point Mugu has 634. Depending
on the size of the house, installing an air
conditioning unit can cost $8,000 to
$10,000 per home.
In addition, annual maintenance cost
per air conditioning unit is $200, averaged
over 10 years.
Put it all together and the cost is $14
million.
In this case, though, its not all about
money.
Its about energy.
As the Navy makes a concerted global
effort to go green,does air conditioning
constitute good use of energy in an area
where an 80-degree day hits 15 times a
year?
The Navy doesnt think so.
On Oct. 11 of last year, coastal instal-
lations were told that the starting posi-
tion for any project is that there will be no
air conditioning.
Each individual command can make a
decision to add air conditioning to a proj-
ect if the local climate or needs of the
facility require it. With mild summer days
and cool summer nights, NBVC just isnt
hot enough to justify the type of expense
needed to install air conditioning units.
So when the heat is on, base residents
are urged to cool down the old-fashioned
way: Open a window, head for the beach,
have an iced drink. You can turn on a fan,
too, but think twice before using the en-
ergy.
Finally, remember the 67 years of re-
corded temperatures and rest assured: The
heat wave wont last long.
Air conditioning: Is it needed?
