Much of Naval Base Ventura
County (NBVC) returned to nor-
mal Monday, Oct. 7, as most
Department of Defense civilians
came back to work after being
furloughed since the start of the
month because of the partial gov-
ernment shutdown.
The commissary at NBVCPort
Hueneme reopened at 10:30 that
morning with limited supplies of
meat, dairy goods and produce.
Shelves were fully stocked by the
middle of the week.
Store Director Velma Siler said
the commissary tripled its busi-
ness Tuesday, Oct. 1, after an-
nouncing the day before that it
would remain open just that one
day to reduce the number of per-
ishables. The store was closed
Wednesday and throughout the
weekend.
We are glad to be open! she
saidthe morning of Oct. 7. Were
ready to rock and roll!
Also back in business were the
Pass & ID offices at NBVC Port
Hueneme and NBVC Point
Mugu. The Fleet & Family Sup-
port Center at NBVCPoint Mugu
reopened, and the center at Port
Hueneme was back to full staff-

Question: When the government shutdown oc-
curred, I was surprised that the commissary closed
but activities like the bowling alley stayed open.
Why is the bowling alley essential and buying gro-
ceries is not?
Answer: The government shutdown and civil-
ian furloughs affected federal services across the
nation, but as you noted, not all services were af-
fected equally.
Those affected services like the commissary
are those funded by federal appropriations. As
such, they were effectively without money on Oct.
1, the beginning of the fiscal year, without a budget
or continuing resolution having been passed. Other
services, like the bowling alley, movie theater and
other Morale, Welfare and Recreation activities,
are not dependent on congressional appropriations
bills for funding to operate.
Those appropriated-fund services considered
essential like fire and security were contin-
ued during the shutdown, initially without fund-
ing in place, based on the critical nature of the
services. Later, the Pay Our Military Act allowed
the Department of Defense to return many civil-
ian employees to work during the shutdown. The
commissary was able to reopen, but thousands of
federal employees in other departments are still
furloughed, as are some DoD employees.
For more about the shutdown, its effects at Na-
val Base Ventura County and what services are still
affected, see The Lighthouse article on the front
page of this edition.

Sailors celebrated the Navys
238th birthday last week with
prime rib in the galley, a 5K in
the wind and dancing in a
glamorous beachside hotel.
In the middle came one of
the most traditional celebra-
tions of all: a bell-ringing cer-
emony that ended with the
youngest Sailor present and the
most senior officer present us-
ing a sword to cut a cake.
Festivities began Thursday,
Oct. 10, when the galleys at
Naval Base Ventura County
(NBVC) served lunch to any-
one with base access, a rare
treat in these cost-cutting times.
Chief Warrant Officer Rodelio
Rosales said 560 meals were
served at Point Mugu, nearly
670 at Port Hueneme and 75 at
San Nicolas Island. The meal
included prime rib, fried
shrimp, baked potato, rice pi-
laf, asparagus and corn.
At the same time, nearly 80
runners showed up for a lunch-
time run put on by Morale,
Welfare and Recreation outside
the Point Mugu Gym. The run,
slightly longer than a 5K, was
won by Lt. Cmdr. Rob Allen
of the 5th Navy Expeditionary
Logistics Regiment, who came
in with a time of 20 minutes,
46 seconds. Norma Santiago,
the wife of Lt. Cmdr. Jesse
Santiago, the executive officer
of the Naval Construction
Training Center, was the first-
place finisher among the wom-
en with a time of 23 minutes,
40 seconds.
It was a little windy, said
Allen, who recently returned
from a deployment to Kuwait,
where hed run at 6 a.m. to
avoid the brutal heat. Even
then, he said, temperatures
could hit 100 degrees before he
was through.
Friday morning came the
bell-ringing ceremony outside
Building 1 at NBVC Point
Mugu. Capt. Larry Vasquez,
commanding officer of the
base, discussed this years
theme, Defending America
with Pride Since 1775.
History teaches us that with
great power comes great re-
sponsibility,he said. We have
championed peace, and we
continue to shield the repub-
lic.
With Equipment Operator
3rd Class Simon Charumonta
standing by, Builder 3rd Class
Gregory Steinhurst followed
Navy tradition and rang the
bell in front of Building 1 nine
times eight to signal the end
of the watch and one for the
start of a new one a new
year.
Then, after a simple show of
hands determined that no one
in attendance was born in 1992
and only one in 1993, Culinary
Specialist Seaman Justin Feld-
man of Carrier Airborne Ear-
ly Warning Squadron (VAW)
116 shared a sword with
Vasquez to cut a cake that
served 250.
The celebrations wrapped up
that night with the Navy Ball
at the Embassy Suites Manda-
lay Bay, a luxury beachfront
hotel near NBVC Port Huen-
eme. Three-hundred tickets
were sold for the formal
event.
The Navys actual birthday
is Oct. 13, which fell on a Sun-
day this year.

In grand naval tradition, stu-
dents of the 255th Civil Engineer
Corps Officers School (CECOS)
Basic Course were honored in a
graduation ceremony Sept. 20 at
Naval Base Ventura County
(NBVC) Port Hueneme.
The commanding officer of the
Center for Seabees and Facilities
Engineering (CSFE) and CE-
COS, Capt. Kevin Brown, wished
the graduates well, and Capt.
Rodney Moore, commodore of
the 30th Naval Construction
Regiment (NCR), personally
handed certificates to each of the
41 graduates and addressed them
and their friends and family
members during the ceremony.
This was a very good class
that accomplished all of its train-
ing objectives while maintaining
a balanced espirit de corps,
Brownsaid. Commodore Moore
gave a great graduation speech,
stepping in on short notice for
Rear Adm. Katherine Gregory,
Chief of Civil Engineer Corps,
who had to alter her travel plans
due to the attack at the Navy
Yard.
The graduating class was com-
prised of 39 CECofficers and two
Saudi Arabian officers who will
be stationed in operational units
around the world.
Ensign Dylan Burns, one of the
graduates, said he will continue
to build upon the knowledge he
gained during the 17-week CE-
COS Basic Class.
I will not leave CECOS on
graduation day pronouncing my
acquisition expertise; rather, I will
accept that plaque with a sense
of direction and confidence as an
officer in charge of construction,
he said. Samuel Johnson said it
best: Knowledge is of two kinds;
we know a subject ourselves, or
we know where we can find in-
formation upon it.
Lt. Nathan Deunk, a CECOS
instructor, said the 255th class
was a cohesive group.
This Basic Class truly came
together to support their class
leadership like none I have seen
before, he said. Additionally,
they welcomed the different per-
spectives brought by the prior
enlisted officers to the class and
enthusiastically assimilated these
lessons into the execution of their
daily leadership responsibili-
ties.
The course is a workshop de-
signed to orient the newly com-
missioned CEC officers to the
role of the CEC in the Navy and
to prepare them to be immedi-
ately effective upon assuming the
duties of their first CEC billets.
Topics include engineering
management, financial manage-
ment, the organization and re-
sponsibilities of the Naval Fa-
cilities (NAVFAC) command,
construction technology and
scheduling, personnel consider-
ations and professional develop-
ment.
After completing the Basic
Course, students begin a two-
week specialized course in public
works management, construction
contract administration or con-
struction battalion operations.
During the military training
phase of the course, students and
staff participated in a five-day
scenario-driven field training ex-
ercise (FTX) at NBVC Point
Mugu. In the past, the class FTX

Since colleges will accept either, is it best
to take the SAT or the ACT?
Unfortunately, the answer isnt simple.
It depends on the students and their testing
and subject matter preferences.
The Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) and
the American College Test (ACT) are col-
lege entrance exams used by most colleges
in the United States. For most schools, stu-
dents have an option to take either. How-
ever, college applicants should be sure that
the test score being submitted is the best
possible test score theyre able to get. Since
some students may do better on one test
than another, its important to compare the
two.
One difference between the ACT and
SATis science. The ACThas a science sec-
tion, and the SATdoes not. However, you
still dont need to worry about memorizing
the periodic table of elements for the ACT
it is meant to test reading and reasoning
skills, not your knowledge of science.
The SAThas a required writing section,
but the writing on the ACT is optional.
However, some colleges will require the
writing test. Be sure if you opt out on the
ACT writing that your school will not ask
for your writing score. Also, the SATessay
score will be factored into the composite
writing score. The ACT writing score will
be kept separate.
What about trigonometry? The ACT
does have trig, while the SATmath section
covers only basic arithmetic, algebra I and
II, and geometry. One thing to consider,
however, is that the ACT math questions
seemto be more straightforward. For some
students, this makes the ACT math easi-
er.
Are words your thing? The SAT em-
phasizes vocabulary much more than the
ACT. If wordsmithing isnt for you, the
ACT may be better.
The SATis brokenupintomore sections,
and colleges will look at scores for each.
The ACTis more of a big pictureexam,
and colleges will look more at the compos-
ite score than the individual sections.
So, howdoes a student really knowwhich
is best? Taking both is an option, but each
requires a fee and typically a Saturday
morning. Another option might be to take
a practice test or a prep course to see which
fits best, but this can be costly.
Fortunately, military families have an-
other option.
eKnowledge is offering military families
a regularly priced $250 SAT and/or ACT
test prep program for just the cost of pro-
viding the programs less than $20. The
fee covers everything, including materials,
shipping, student support and streaming.
The Donation Project is in alliance with
the Department of Defense and supported
by more than 100 partners, including pro-
fessional football and baseball players. In
eight years, eKnowledge has donated more
than 200,000 SATand ACTprograms val-
ued at over $44 million. No profit is cre-
atedby the donationeffort, andall proceeds
are reinvested to improve the program.
The SAT and ACT PowerPrep Pro-
grams are available online or on a single
DVD. Programs include more than 11
hours of video instruction and 3,000 files
of supplemental test prep material, thou-
sands of interactive diagnostic tools, sam-
ple questions and practice tests. Students
select the training they need and study at
their own pace.
The programs are available to all active
duty service members, retirees, veterans,
Reservists, members of the National Guard,
Department of Defense employees, con-
tractors and civilians performing military
support. Also eligible are relatives and de-
pendents of anyone whootherwise qualifies
from the prior list.
Students may order both the ACT and
the SAT programs for under $40 for the
two. This way, they will be sure to take the
test that will give them the best test score
to attach to the college application.
The NBVC school liaison officer can be
contacted at 805-989-5211 or NBVC_SLO@
navy.mil for any K-12 education-related issue.
Is it better to take the SAT or the ACT? It all depends

Worship schedule
On any given day during this past sum-
mer, you would find me getting up at
4:50 a.m. to run six miles at Port Hue-
neme. I would attach my iPhone to my
arm and crank up my workout playlist
that is filled with training music, or Id
listen to sermons from my favorite pas-
tors.
My run would last me about 50 min-
utes and gave me enough time to clean
up and eat breakfast before the start of
the duty day.
You are probably asking yourself,
Why does he do it? The answer comes
from my Gunny at chaplain school who
said, You train how you fight, and fight
how you train.
My training is not just for down range,
but also for life. I started training for
this mobilization a year and half before
it happened. As a chaplain, I am not a
part of the combat operations portion
of our mission, but I still need to be
prepared to endure the onslaught of
stress that comes with being down range.
Training also keeps me in shape for life,
and it keeps me focused physically, men-
tally and spiritually as well.
The Apostle Paul said, Do you not
know that in a race all the runners run,
but only one receives the prize? So run
that you may obtain it. Every athlete
exercises self-control in all things. They
do it to receive a perishable wreath, but
we an imperishable. So I do not run aim-
lessly; I do not box as one beating the
air. But I discipline my body and keep
it under control, lest after preaching to
others I myself should be disqualified.
(I Corinthians 9:24-27; ESV)
Paul was not focused on the training
itself, but rather the actual event. For
the last four months we have endured
rigorous training, and now NMCB 28
is in the fight.
Our focus is not on ribbons, but rath-
er on honoring the fight of those who
have gone before us as well as carrying
that legacy to the end. While Pauls
words ring of more eternal goals, we can
take some liberty with them and apply
them to our fight. We did not train so
that we could simply go back home after
a long mobilization. We trained to en-
dure, to persevere and to finish strong.
Although NMCB 28 is retiring, we still
have one last fight. We have already
started to make our mark here in Af-
ghanistan, and the Ol Pros are known
for their great work throughout the
country. Our name will echo on long
after we have left the arena.
We plan on enduring to the last round
and finishing strong.
Why, you may ask?
Because, We train how we fight and
fight how we train.
Living out We train how we fight and fight how we train

CECOS graduates 255th Basic Course Sept. 20
had been conducted at Fort Hunter Liggett
along the Central Coast, where scenarios
leverage the same Army training ranges and
navigationcourses usedbyNMCBs for field
training. The change in location, driven by
budgetary reductions, forced CECOS staff
to redesign each scenario and seek creative
training alternatives.
The CECOSstaff was able toexecute all
of the required learning objectives for Basic
Class 255 at Point Mugu, while saving the
Navy $25,000 in travel and support costs,
said Lt. Cmdr. Jeff Jordan, CECOS Seabee
Readiness Divisiondirector. Whiletheinitial
field training was successfully executed, we
will continue tomake everyeffort toimprove
our tactical realisminorder toenhance each
students training.
CECOS Basic Class student, Chief War-
rant Officer John Desarro, said he liked the
change.
Havingtheurbantrainingfacilityat Point
Mugu made doing patrols in a real-time en-
vironment morerealistic,hesaid. Thetrain-
ing obtained at Point Mugu gives the new
officers arealistic viewof what NMCBs deal
with in urban environments.
The FTXis strategicallyplacedwithinthe
CECOS curriculum to give newly commis-
sionedCECofficers andlateral transfers the
chance toperformandexecute skills learned
in the classroom, such as establishing camp,
conducting patrols, leading convoys, operat-
ingthecombat operations center, andmission
planningtoexecute engineer reconnaissance
operations.
I feel fortunate the CECOSstaff was able
to find a way to keep the FTXin our course
curriculum, said Ensign Michael Krestos.
Withmy first tour being a NAVFACbillet,
the FTXprovideda brief yet valuable expo-
sure to what I will be expected to execute in
the future.

Repairs have begun on the weakened

canopy that forced the closure of the main
gate at Naval Base Ventura County
(NBVC) Point Mugu.
The gate, located at the intersection of
Naval Air Road and North Mugu Road,
has been closed since February.
During an inspection Feb. 25, it was
determined that one of the timbers in the
decorative overhang had slipped and
posed a safety hazard to passing vehicles
and personnel.
Las Posas Gate then became the NBVC
Point Mugu main gate, operating 24 hours
and handling commercial traffic and
RAPIDGate access. An unused gate at
Naval Air Road and Main Road, com-
monly known as Gate 1, was reopened,
with hours of 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday
through Friday except for federal holi-
days.
Due to a lack of funding for the repair,
the gate at Mugu Road has remained
closed. At the very end of Fiscal Year
2013, money became available to contract
out the repairs.
Currently, work is under way to abate
the danger of asbestos and lead paint in
the old canopy structure. Once it is safe
to do so, the old canopy and guard shack
will be demolished and a new structure
erected.

METINARO, Timor-Leste
Seabees from Naval Mobile
Construction Battalion (NMCB)
3 teamed up with a joint force of
engineers to complete several
construction projects intended to
improve Timor-Lestes Metinaro
community and increase interop-
erability between three Pacific
allies.
NMCB 3 Seabees joined engi-
neers fromTimor-Lestes Defense
Force (F-DTL), the U.S. Marine
Corps and the Australian De-
fence Forces (ADF) Royal Aus-
tralian Engineers (RAE) corps to
build a three-classroom school
building, an eight-stall commu-
nity bathroom, an outdoor kitch-
en facility, a playground, a bas-
ketball court and several hundred
meters of fencing as part of the
28-day Sapper 13 exercise.
To have a tri-nation exercise
where the people of Timor-Leste
receive the benefits and to see
other nations working and learn-
ing from each other is what mis-
sion success is about, said ADF
Warrant Officer Bill Fry, a 19-
year RAEveteran and the officer
in charge of Sapper 13.
Planning for the exercise began
a year ago. This is the first time
the three countries have come
together to perform civic con-
struction in East Timor. The
united effort increases both read-
iness and presence well past the
shoreline.
Sapper 13 resonates through-
out the Metinaro community,
which will nowbe able to provide
formal education to more than
300 additional children thanks to
the new school house.
Additionally, the completed
projects will provide accommoda-
tions for F-DTL soldiers and
their families currently stationed
in the small community 45 min-
utes east of Dili, the countrys
capital.
According to Equipment Op-
erator Constructionman Joseph
Madley, the multinational cross
training and ability to provide a
lasting, positive impact satisfies
a dream hes fostered since boot
camp.
This is what I envisioned when
I joined the Seabees, said Mad-
ley. Working side-by-side with
other militaries to improve the
lives of people around the world
its a dream come true for me,
and this is only my first deploy-
ment.
At the shoreline of countries
such as Timor-Leste and other
Pacific island nations, Seabees
stand ready with critical construc-
tion equipment and specialized
skillsets that allow them to liter-
ally move mountains. During a
natural disaster, they can provide
humanitarian assistance to any
nation suffering from the annual
onslaught of typhoons, hurri-
canes and tsunamis.
In this disaster-prone area of
the world, the local island nations
can expect a yearly bill of rough-
ly $278 million in storm damage
placing exercises like Sapper
13 into a critical level of impor-
tance.

OKINAWA, Japan Moments after
completing a 48-hour exercise last month
in which Naval Mobile Construction Bat-
talion (NCMB) 3 successfully demon-
strated its ability to provide humanitar-
ian assistance anywhere in the Pacific
Region, six volunteers traded their dirty
work uniforms for Navy workout clothes
and helped more than 50 Japanese senior
citizens get ready to party.
The volunteers helped a handful of
Japanese contractors at the Hijigawa No
Sato Home for Senior Citizens build a
celebration area to enjoy this years Fall
Festival, an annual party to welcome Au-
tumn to Okinawa.
For Utilitiesman 2nd Class Ann Lar-
son, the opportunity to help Hijigawa
residents offered a chance to make up for
lost time with her deceased grandmoth-
er.
I was very tired the exercise had us
on non-stop rotating shifts, said Larson.
When I was walking back to my room,
I remembered how often my grandmoth-
er would say how bored she would get.
Being a Seabee and either deployed or
training, I didnt get a chance to spend
much time with her. Giving back to the
community here in Okinawa was a chance
to do for others what I couldnt do for
her. I think she would have liked that.
Each volunteer lifted their weight in
chairs and tables as they helped five Oki-
nawan contractors transform an outdoor
parking area into a festive location to eat
and relax. The team had only a few hours
Sept. 27 to prepare, making the volunteers
an essential part of the process.
When I was talking to the contrac-
tors, said Shoji Kudaka, an Okinawa
native and community relations coordina-
tor for Commander, Fleet Activities Oki-
nawa, they said the Seabees help was
huge. They were able to carry more tables
and chairs than them, which helped speed
everything up. The volunteers were very
motivated.

NSWC PHD
Capt. Burt Espe, commander of Naval
Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme
Division (NSWCPHD), kicked off the fall
semesters Pre-Engineering Program Oct.
8 with students representing 10 local high
schools.
There is a lot of hope and expectations
of your generation, said Espe. You are
the ones carrying us into the future. Joining
this programis the first steptowards achiev-
ing a long andsuccessful career inengineer-
ing and carrying on the work started by
current industry leaders.
Established in 1998, the Pre-Engineering
Programis the result of a founding partner-
ship between the command and Oxnard
Union High School District. The partner-
ship has since expanded to include schools
fromVentura Unified School District. Ap-
proximately 850 students have completed
the program over the past 15 years.
While speaking to the students, Espe
explained the importance of engineering
to the Navy, specifically the role of NSWC
PHD, which is located at Naval Base Ven-
tura County.
There is a very big engineering arm of
the services that deals primarily with in-
novation and technology, he said. Our
command does a lot of hefty engineering
for the Navy getting anidea, transferring
it into an idea or capability and then bring-
ing it forward to an application aboard
ships and submarines. We are the guys that
make sure ships are functioning properly
while thinking up better ways to get the job
done better and more cost efficiently.
The Pre-Engineering Program is one of
several NSWC PHD outreach programs
begun since the commands inception in
1963. This course is designed to provide
local high school students the opportunity
to apply math and science concepts in real-
world scenarios. Through instruction on a
variety of engineering disciplines, such as
mechanical and electrical engineering, stu-
dents learn howengineering principles are
applied in real-life situations.
Students meet on base every Tuesday for
12 weeks following their regular school day.
Each weeks course is taught by a Navy
civilian engineer who is a subject matter
expert in a particular engineering disci-
pline.
At the end of the semester, participants
receive certificates of achievement and let-
ters of recommendation for college appli-
cations.
Pre-Engineering Program
kicks off new fall semester
850 students from 10 local high schools have taken

NAWCWD Public Affairs
Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Di-
vision (NAWCWD) held its first Com-
mand Thank You Day at China Lake Sept.
24 and at Point Mugu Sept 26. To show
appreciation for their workforce, senior
leaders from the command group staffed
entertainment and food booths serving
NAWCWD employees sandwiches, snow
cones, nachos, ice cream and root beer
floats.
The day started off at both sites with
remarks by Rear Adm. Mike Moran,
NAWCWD commander.
Celebrate yourself today,he said. Im
going to because I cant think of any bet-
ter place to be than at WD, helping elevate
and move forward the Department of
Defense mission in support of our war-
fighter. Thanks very much and enjoy to-
day. You guys deserve it.
There were many activities and games
for employees to enjoy, the highlight at
Point Mugu being the Evel Knievel rock-
et race. Phil Wilsons team from code 7.2
was the winner.
Wilson said he modeled his rocket after
Evel Knievels X series Skycycle and
named it X-3 Skycycle.
I even made the wooden ramp for my
rocket, he said.
NAWCWD thanks employees
with free food, entertainment

dog to give chase, the dog obeying with a vicious
snarl and bringing down a suspect with that
Do it again, I dare you! look in his eye.
Watching the transformation were six young
men boys, actually, just 15 to 18 years old.
They stood behind a locked gate, and what was
going through their minds was anyones guess.
Remembering a family pet? Recalling their own
arrest? They didnt let on as they stood quietly
but intently, taking in the adrenaline-fueled
scenes playing out in front of them.
The Religious Ministries Team at Naval Base
Ventura County had arranged for this military
working dog demonstration at the Ventura
County Juvenile Detention Facility in Oxnard,
where minors serve out their sentences. On
weekdays, the teenagers attend Providence
School on the facilitys grounds. Religious Min-
istries has had a longstanding partnership with
the school, bringing presents at the holidays
and providing guest speakers throughout the
year.
The kids enjoy having the Navy come, said
Mollie Ruble, a senior deputy probation officer.
Weve always had great success; the kids have
been interested in what theyve had to say. This
is something different, something theyve never
done before.
Chilko agreed that these six boys and the
seven others seeing the next demonstration
would benefit.
As long as theyve earned the right to attend
some extra-curricular activities, I think this is
a good thing, Chilko said, adding that he hoped
the demonstration would spur an interest in a
career they might never have thought of be-
fore.
Chilko was joined by Master at Arms 1st
Class Michael Langehennig, Master at Arms
3rd Class Kendahl Peterson and Master at
Arms 3rd Class Bernardo Negron-Rodriguez.
They brought Military Working Dogs Yago,
Pali, Tara and Jake.
Canines can be trained to detect explosives,
drugs, cash, weapons, cell phones, corpses, even
bedbugs. Military working dogs are deployed
to war zones and disaster areas; Jake, for ex-
ample, has been to Honduras, Iraq and Af-
ghanistan.
Hes a really good dog, Chilko told the
boys.
The demonstration took place Sunday, Oct.
6, in a central grassy courtyard. The boys stood
in an enclosed outdoor patio area, guards be-
hind them.
Chilko and Negron-Rodriguez acted out a
scene in which Chilko asked the suspect for
identification, then commanded Jake to give
chase when Negron-Rodriguez turned and
ran.
Thats 80 pounds of pure adrenaline coming
at you, Chilko said. It feels like someones
hitting you with a baseball bat.
It was no surprise, then, that Negron-Rodri-
guez fell down as Jake flew into him like a bul-
let. The dog tore into the padded sleeve Negron-
Rodriguez wore for protection and held the man
down until Chilko ordered a release.
That dog has 42 teeth, Chilko said as a side
note not that anyone was interested in count-
ing.
During training, the suspect wears either
the padded sleeve or a full-body attack suit.
Bill Stewart wore the full-body suit. The boys
grinned and laughed as their supervising dep-
uty probation officer was fitted into it. But their
reaction was more sober, more awed, as they
watched a man they knew be knocked to the
ground by a snarling canine teeth bared, spit
flying.
It was pretty cool, Stewart said afterwards
as Chilko and Peterson helped him squirm out
of the padding. They are powerful animals. I
didnt mean to fall down, but even someone
who weighs 400 pounds would go over.
Stewart owns a 9-year-old boxer that weighs
about 55 pounds.
He doesnt have that kind of energy, he said
with a laugh.
The boys also watched Pali at 3, just a pup
find ingredients to explosives hidden under
a cone. Chilko had them pick which of the
seven cones would contain the ingredients; Pali
sniffed each one, then, on high alert and ears
back, laid down next to the correct one and
stared at it.
Peterson let out a joyous whoop, and Pali was
ecstatic.
Chilko explained that the dogs are trained
with positive reinforcement.
We never hit our dogs, he said.
One boy asked if pit bulls could be trained
as military working dogs.
You can try, but theyre hard-headed,
Chilko explained. They always think theyre
dominant. Theyre hard to train because they
think theyre in charge.
Another boy asked if dog bites are fatal.
Where we teach them to bite arms, legs,
extremities theyre not fatal, Chilko an-
swered.
There was one question Chilko didnt know
the answer to, but it was the one he was hoping
for.
The demonstration hadnt even started yet,
but the boy was curious.
Can I do what you do, he asked Chilko, if
I have a felony on my record?

MA1 Scott Chilko does some warm-up exercises
with Jake, a 7-year-old military working dog
trained to detect drugs.
Yago, a 5-year-old German shepherd, takes down MA1 Scott Chilko. If you hit him, he bites harder, Chilko told the teens. The dog is trained to continue detaining the suspect, no matter how much the person wrestles. It takes a lot of work, Chilko said afterwards, wiping sweat off his face, as you can see.w

Yago brings down escaping suspect Bill
Stewart, a supervising deputy probation officer,
during a military working dog demonstration at
the Ventura County Juvenile Justice Complex
Sunday, Oct. 6. The teenage boys who were
watching laughed as the demonstration began,
then became more sober as they saw someone
they know fall victim to a military working dog.
Handlers move to call off Yago from detaining the
escaping suspect.
Unhurt but stunned by the dogs power, Stewart
is helped out of the attack suit by MA3 Kendahl
Peterson and MA1 Scott Chilko.

2 (UCT-2) at NBVCPort Hue-
neme, where about 40 Seabee
Divers showed their support
of that message by signing a
banner and placing their pur-
ple handprint next to their
signature.
This is good awareness as
to what the Navy is doing to
prevent domestic violence,
said Chief Construction Elec-
trician Terence Juergens as he
headed toward a restroom to
wash the purple paint off his
hand. Concentrating on re-
ducing the risk of domestic
violence will make us better as
a unit.
UCT-2 was one of nearly
two dozen commands Hanson
and Flores are visiting this
month. Each command is
hanging its own United
Against Domestic Violence
banner in a prominent spot
through the end of the
month.
This years message is ad-
dressing bystanders, Flores
explained. Three out of four
people know a victim of do-
mestic violence. Were urging
them to speak up.
Outside the FFSC building
at NBVC Port Hueneme is an-
other awareness project: 99
purple ribbons fill a grassy
area along 29th Avenue. Each
ribbon represents a domestic
violence allegation that was
formally reported at Naval
Base Ventura County two
years ago when the ribbons
were made. Last year, Hanson
said, there were 110.
Also back to remind Sailors
of what Flores called not just
a family issue, but a public
health issue are the silent sil-
houettes red life-size ply-
wood figures, each bearing a
story of a real domestic vio-
lence victim. Theyre in the
FFSC lobby and at the Navy
Exchange at NBVC Port Hue-
neme.
As with the command ban-
ners, the ribbons and silhou-
ettes will stay in place through
October.

Help when you need it.
The Fleet & Family
Support Center
Life has a way of throwing us curve balls,
andyoucannot gothroughlife without fac-
ing the occasional uphill struggles.
When this happens, couples can choose
to engage in constructive and healthy ways
to attack the problem, or one or both peo-
ple may choose instead to attack the
other person. Name-calling, blaming, de-
fensiveness, raised voices, threats, even
physical violence can result. Words can be
saidthat cannot be takenback. Actions can
be taken that cannot be undone.
Left unaddressed and without interven-
tion, the relationship often deteriorates as
the unhealthy behaviors increase in sever-
ity and frequency. Couples can quickly go
from wanting to see their partner happy
andwanting todonice things for their part-
ner to feeling so unheard, undervalued and
hurt by their partner that they may no lon-
ger want to do or say nice things to the
other, may hurt their partner in return or
try and leave the relationship.
Ultimately, when one or both of the
people in the relationship engages in un-
healthy forms of problem-solving, the re-
sulting behavior or actions can become
abusive.
Some couples become caught in the
cycleof abuse, goingfromthe calmphase,
where everything is going fine andeveryone
is getting along, to the tension-building
phase, when a problem or stressor arises.
During this phase, the abuser may become
angry and there may be a breakdown in
communication. The partner begins walk-
ing on eggshells and becomes uneasy about
what may happen next. Next comes the
explosive phase, where any type of abuse
occurs physical, emotional, sexual, ver-
bal. This is often followed by the honey-
moon phase, where the abuser apologizes,
blames the partner for the abuse, minimiz-
es it or denies it even happened. The couple
then begins the cycle again.
Some who are in this cycle find it very
difficult to get out, no matter how badly
they may want to. They may not have any-
where togo, they may have limitedfinancial
means, family may be far away or they may
lackother forms of support. They may have
children, or their spouse may have threat-
ened harmto themor others if they try to
leave.
This is why it is so important for friends,
loved ones, co-workers and even acquain-
tances to speak up and not remain silent if
they are aware that someone is inanabusive
relationship.
This is why the Navywide campaign this
year for Domestic Violence Awareness
Month is Silence Hides Violence. There
are resources available to offer assistance,
and often it can be kept confidential.
So please, if you or someone you know
is inanabusive relationship, call anadvocate
at the Fleet & Family Support Center at
Naval Base Ventura County. Youcanspeak
confidentially toLaura Hansonat 805-982-
4117 or Rosie Flores at 805-982-3788.

Fruit salad, pasta primavera, chicken
salad sandwiches every Monday for
about an hour, youngsters in the after-
school program at Naval Base Ventura
Countys Camarillo Youth Center learn
how to create a healthy dish.
And then they get to eat it.
Rebecca Rovinsky, the program lead
at the center, located in the Catalina
Heights military housing complex, said
about 15 elementary school students
take part in the weekly cooking club.
They learn how to make something
that uses healthy ingredients, she ex-
plained. We experiment with different
flavors.
On a recent Monday, the youngsters
made fruit salad. Using plastic utensils,
half of them chopped up the fruit while
the others measured out ingredients for
a dressing.
The fruit red and green grapes,
watermelon, blueberries, honeydew,
apples and cantaloupe got a thumbs
up.
The dressing made of honey, lime
and mint not so much.
Some suggested adding more fruit to
the salad, like strawberries.
Id make it with pineapple, said Em-
ily Strohschein, the daughter of Navy
Counselor 1st Class Kurt Strohschein
of Fleet Logistics Support Squadron
(VR) 55.
One youngster suggested bananas,
which ended up being the perfect segue
for the following week. On the menu:
chocolate-dipped bananas.

ing.
Mass has not been said on base
since the shutdown because the
RomanCatholic priest is a govern-
ment contractor, not an active-
duty chaplain. About 175 people
who regularly attend Mass at
NBVC Port Huenemes Seabee
Chapel and NBVC Point Mugus
Chapel of Faith worshipped out-
side the gates Oct. 6 and Oct. 13,
said Lt. Cmdr. Jeffrey Han, com-
mand chaplain.
Han said there is a shortage of
Roman Catholic priests in the
military and that having a govern-
ment contractor in that position
is not unusual.
He said most churchgoers
learned of the Oct. 6 cancellation
through word of mouth or via a
phone tree. The information was
not posted on Facebook in time
for that service because the NBVC
Public Affairs Office had been
furloughed; the office is nowback
to full staffing and word of the
Oct. 13 cancellationhas since been
posted.
The U.S. Navy Seabee Museum
is still closed. The facility is oper-
ated by the U.S. Naval History &
Heritage Command, whose em-
ployees remained furloughed dur-
ing the shutdown.
About 2,000 federal civilians
affected by the lapse in appro-
priations work at NBVC. More
than 90 percent of themall but
fire and police personnel and oth-
ers whose missions were deemed
essential to the life, health and
safety of the Fleet, Fighter and
Family were furloughed when
Congress did not approve a fund-
ing mechanismby Oct. 1, the start
of the new fiscal year.
Some federal workers includ-
ing Morale, Welfare and Recre-
ation(MWR) employees stayed
on the job because they are paid
through a different funding mech-
anism that is not dependent on
congressional budget approval.
For more information on this, see
the Ask the Captain column on
Page 2.
Also unaffected were those em-
ployees working in an organiza-
tion operating with working
capital funds, such as Naval Air
Warfare Center Weapons Division
(NAWCWD) and Naval Surface
Warfare Center, Port Hueneme
Division (NSWCPHD). Accord-
ing to the Office of Personnel
Managements website, Guid-
ance directs that working capital
(revolving) fundactivities will con-
tinue under normal operations
supporting customer orders, sub-
ject to the availability of sufficient
fund balances and, as such, those
employees are not subject to fur-
loughactions.Essentially, as long
as NAWCWD and NSWC PHD
have money in their working cap-
ital funds, they can continue to
operate.
While other federal employees
remained furloughed, most who
work for the Department of De-
fense were ordered back Oct. 7
because they were deemed neces-
sary to support active-duty mili-
tary personnel, whom President
Barack Obama had exempted
from any government shutdown.
Among themwere commissary
workers, and that was good news
for Adrian Gonzalez, who stocks
Mission and Guerrero brands at
Ralphs, Vons and other local mar-
kets. He was busy replenishing the
commissary shelves Oct. 7.
This is a great account for us,
he said of the commissary. It was
a big deficit to have it closed.
