By EM3 Joel Anderson
GROTON, Conn. - June
30 - July 3 can be remem-

WASHINGTON -
Robert M. Gates is the
only man to thank two
presidents for the privi-
lege of serving as secre-
tary of defense.
At the Armed Forces
Farewell Tribute on the
Pentagons parade field
June 30, Gates thanked
President George W.
Bush for nominating him
for the job in 2006, and
President Barack Obama
for retaining him in it
during the change in
administrations in 2009.
At the ceremony,
Obama praised Gates
bipartisanship, and
awarded him the
Presidential Medal of
Freedom - the highest
award a president can
confer to a civilian.
Gates also spoke to
those who would have
the United States with-
draw from world affairs
and retreat to isolation-
ism. He took the thought
from former Defense
Secretary and Army
Chief of Staff during
World War II General
of the Army George C.
Marshall. Gates said that
once while addressing
university graduates,
Marshall extolled what
he considered the great
musts of that genera-
tion.
Marshall said the musts
included the development
of a sense of responsibil-
ity for world order and
security, and the devel-
opment of a sense of the
overwhelming impor-
tance of Americas acts
and failures to act.
Now, as when
Marshall first uttered
those words, a sense of
Americas exceptional
global responsibilities
and the importance of
what we do or do not
do remain the great
musts of this danger-
ous new century, Gates
said. It is the sacred
duty entrusted to all of
us privileged to serve in
positions of leadership
and responsibility; a duty
we should never forget
or take lightly; a duty
I have every confidence
you will all continue to
fulfill, he added.
Gates said his service
as secretary of defense
has been the greatest
honor and privilege of
my life, and for that I
will always be grateful.
The transition from
the Bush to the Obama
administration was the
first during war in nearly
40 years, Gates said, and
it showed how serious
people in both parties
came together to do good
for the country.
The collegiality, thor-
oughness and profession-
alism of the Bush-Obama
transition were of great
benefit to the country
and were a tribute to the
character and judgment
of both presidents, he
said.

Mississippi Sailors amass 782 volunteer hours
By Lt. Jennifer Cragg
Commander, Submarine Group
Two Public Affairs Officer
GROTON, Conn. - The
crew of Pre-Commissioning
Unit (PCU) Mississippi
(SSN 782) amassed 782
volunteer hours through-
out New England, equal-
ing their boats hull num-
ber, June 24.
Volunteer coordinator
Machinists Mate 1st Class
(SS/SW) James Pearson
has led the boats commu-
nity service efforts since
October 2010.
When I transferred to
PCU Mississippi a couple
of other Sailors stationed
aboard collaborated on a
community service pro-
gram, explained Pearson.
After discussing it further
with our Chief of the Boat,
the plan was approved,
essentially allowing our
vision to take shape.
Pearson said that part
of his plan for their com-
mands community service
was to inform the local
community about the U.S.
Navy, and in particular,
Mississippi.
We wanted our volun-
teer program to emphasize
our interest in Connecticut
and our desire to offer our
assistance wherever nec-
essary, said Pearson.
The Sailors aboard
Mississippi have assist-
ed with countless proj-
ects, from cooking for
the SubVets in the local
area to educating students
about the military at John
B. Stanton Elementary
School.
According to Pearson,
the commands commu-
nity service has impacted
more than 10,000 people
and has had a positive
impact on their outlook
involving the local mili-
tary community.
Mississippi Sailors and
employees of Electric
Boat, the company build-
ing the boat, packed more
than 400 care packages in
their off time for deployed
Connecticut Sailors.
I would personally like
to thank you and your
shipmates for proactively
joining a partnership with
us in our care package
efforts for troops deployed
abroad, said Don Miller,
US / UK Fleet Support
and Modernization for
Electric Boat. The assis-
tance the members of PCU
Mississippi in helping to
set up and serve lunch dur-
ing our last three events
were invaluable and very
much appreciated.
One Mississippi
Sailor, who served as an
Individual Augmentee (IA)
several years ago, knew of
their generosity firsthand
and received care packag-
es while on deployment.
When I was deployed,
I was truly grateful to
receive care packages
from Electric Boat, said
Electricians Mate (SS) 1st
Class Randy Hall.
Since returning from
his IA deployment, Hall
has come full circle and
shared his experiences
during deployment and
the impact of receiving the
care packages. His experi-
ences have become a cata-
lyst for the Electric Boat
employees and Sailors
aboard Mississippi to con-
tinue supporting deployed
service members from
Connecticut.
He volunteers more
than I do and really
emphasizes to the com-
mand what an impact this
program has on troops
stationed overseas, said
Pearson.
To date, Mississippi
Sailors have assisted in
36 projects. Pearson laid
down a challenge for all
future boats at Electric
Boat to continue volun-
teering in many of these
projects, particularly help-
ing out deployed service
members.
We want all of the
branches of the military
service to know what
they do for our country
matters, said Pearson.
Their service is respected
and appreciated, and our
effort here in Connecticut
to show them is just a
small token of our appre-
ciation.

Movie review: Transformers: Dark of the Moon
By MC1(AW) Peter D. Blair
GROTON, Conn. In
true Michael Bay fashion,
Transformers: Dark of
the Moon is filled with
high energy, great explo-
sions and a decent story-
line. With amazing special
effects and a great cast of
actors, it is a true block-
buster for 2011.
In the final installment
of the Transformers saga,
Dark of the Moon sees
the world overrun by
Decepticons who have
been lying dormant for
years until transported to
Earth by a space bridge
that is used to transport
Cybertron itself to Earth
and enslave the human
race. The only ones
that can turn the tide
are Optimus Prime, the
Autobots and a handful of
brave humans.
The movie plays out
much like the previous
two, with a few twists,
some foul language and
lots of explosions. It starts
a little slow, but once the
action starts, it doesnt
stop until the very end.
With some new Autobots
and Decepticons, includ-
ing some of the original
cartoon characters like
Laserbeak, Shockwave
and Mirage, Dark of the
Moon if a fitting conclu-
sion to the trilogy.
Overall, Dark of the
Moon is a good movie,
though some of the act-
ing is subpar. The movie
deserves the PG-13 rating,
as some of the language
being a little harsh for
younger viewers, but if
you are looking for that
great summer blockbuster,
it will do nicely.

Powell says farewell to SUBASE, not an easy day
By MC1(AW) Peter D. Blair
GROTON, Conn. - After
24 years of Naval Service,
Command Master Chief
Raymond Powell said fare-
well to his military family
July 1, as he retired from the
Navy. Powell spent nearly
his entire career at Naval
Submarine Base New London
(SUBASE) and its tenant
commands. The friendships
forged were evident as more
than 160 friends and family
members came to the Groton
Elks Lodge to help send him
ashore one final time.
Powell joined the Navy
in 1987 and managed to
accomplish something few
Sailors do, he spent his entire
career serving in one region,
going from sea duty to shore
duty, all at SUBASE.
Hes been the heart and
soul of SUBASE for the past
three years..., said Captain
Marc W. Denno, SUBASEs
Commanding Officer. And
for the last two years hes
been my COB (Chief of the
Boat), my mentor, and most
importantly my friend.
During the ceremony,
friends and family shared
some of their fondest memo-
ries of Powell, retired Master
Chief Big Al Atkinson,
Master Chief Kerri Meng,
and Powells brother-in-law
all shared some of their times
with him. Each story not
only garnered laughs from
the crowd, but showed how
his friends and shipmates
respected him.
After receiving his end-of-
tour award from Denno and
the National Ensign from
the passing of the flag cer-
emony, Master Chief Powell
stepped to the microphone
to say his farewell to those
he had served with during
his career. Although a little
choked up, Powell thanked
as many people as he could,
stating that he hadnt written
a speech and it was all com-
ing from inside.
I want to thank everyone
here today, said Powell. In
one way or another, each
of you has had an impact
on my time in Groton and I
have met a lot of great people
during my time here.
During his three years
at SUBASE Powell led the
enlisted community, boost-
ing morale among the troops
and guiding them to success.
Through his leadership and
hands-on approach, SUBASE
succeeded at every turn, win-
ning awards and accolades,
like the 2011 Commander
Navy Region Mid-Atlantic
(CNRMA) Installation
Excellence Award.
Everything we do
impacts mission, said
Powell. I cant stress the
importance of teamwork,
job accomplishment, and
mission readiness enough.
You cant have one without
having the other. Each is
a fuel and when you have
them all, you have the fire.
Powell served onboard
USS Philadelphia (SSN 690),
USS Annapolis (SSN 760),
USS Alexandria (SSN 757)
and USS San Juan (SSN 751).
His shore duty tours include,
Mobile Technical Unit 4,
Commander Submarine
Development Squadron
(DEVRON) 12, and as the
Command Master Chief at
SUBASE.

nearly twenty as the Navy
fully committed to envi-
ronmental stewardship.
His retirement is some-
what bittersweet as the
base nears the final phases
of the program which com-
bines aggressive cleanup
policies with modern tech-
nology to restore and pre-
serve property under Navy
stewardship. The success of
the program will ultimate-
ly see the base removed
from the federal Superfund
list of the nations most
polluted sites, where it has
been since 1990.
Under Conants leader-
ship of the program, the
Navy has spent more than
$70 million on remedia-
tion efforts at the base. If
the current schedule holds
and restoration remedies
continue to prove effec-
tive, the base could be
taken off the Superfund
list in 2014.
At the June public meet-
ing, Conant offered fare-
well remarks to the Navy,
public, and community
team that have taken such
an interest and contrib-
uted so tremendously to
the IRPs success.
This has been a big,
complex and successful
program, and I consider
myself lucky to have been
involved, said Conant.
But of course, I didnt do
it alone. Theres always
been great partnership
and collaboration. From
EPA to the state DEP to
the dedicated commu-
nity members who sit
on Restoration Advisory
Board, weve made the dif-
ference together.
Conants efforts to make
a difference extended
beyond the IRP.
He tutored grade-school
students for more than 15
years in the local school
system, helping with read-
ing and mathematics, and
conducting writing work-
shops. Conant received
the Groton Friend of
Education Award in 2010
for his commitment.
He also coordinated com-
munity projects over the
last four years in support
of the bases Annual Earth
Day Challenge. Through
these yearly more than
week long efforts, Conant
and hundreds of Navy
volunteers participated in
environmental projects
across the community:
from cleaning up trails
and shorelines at parks
and beaches, to picking
up debris and removing
invasive plant species at
land conservancies.
As he turns to the next
chapter in his impactful
life, Dick Conant leaves
a tremendous legacy at
SUBASE, said Commander
Frank Mulcahy, the base
Public Works Officer.
Whether leading the base
to the light at the end of the
tunnel in the Restoration
Program or reading a book
with a youngster at Fitch
Middle School, Dick has
been dedicated to mak-
ing a difference. A biolo-
gist by education and an
environmental specialist
by profession, he is truly
a public servant at heart.
Our Navy, base, and com-
munity are all the better
for his devoted service.
Conant, as his fashion,
thought of others.
Its been a great run for
me, and I wish everyone
the best as SUBASE moves
into the 21st century as
a dynamic and forward-
looking DoD installation,
he concluded.

carnival style games and

win a prize stuffed animal

2011 was one to remem-
ber, said MWR director
Bob Kydd. Between the
rides, shows, food, ven-
dors and fireworks there
was definitely something
for everyone!
This years penultimate
event, the fireworks dis-
play, occurred midway
through the weekend on
July 2 as the dark night
sky was illuminated with
an impressive show of
pyrotechnics. Zooming
through the air, sizzling
streaks of light exploded
into brilliant beams of col-
ors which danced around,
trickling lazily towards
the earth, internalizing a
wondrous memory of awe
and excitement.
This was the BEST
show Ive ever seen at
the base and I have lived
here most of my life, said
Amy Yaras on the SUBASE
Facebook site. Awesome
show, kids LOVED it!!
One of Americas found-
ing fathers, John Adams
once said about celebrat-
ing July 4, The day will
be most memorable in
the history of America.
I am apt to believe that
it will be celebrated by
succeeding generations
as the great anniversary
festivalIt ought to be
solemnized with pomp
and paradebonfires and
illumination from one end
of this continent to the
other, from this time for-
ward forevermore. For
most in attendance at this
years SUBFEST; mission
accomplished.
Between our MWR
staff, the volunteers, and
the outstanding Sailors
and civilians in Security,
SUBFEST went off with-
out a hitch, added Kydd.
This years SUBFEST will
be hard to top but we look
forward to the challenge
next year.

By Lt. Jennifer Cragg
Commander Submarine Group Two Public Affairs

GROTON, Conn. - The safety departments for
Commander, Submarine Group Two and Ten, Kings
Bay, Ga., ramp up efforts to ensure all personnel who
ride motorcycles on and off base are aware of motor-
cycle safety requirements with the motorcycle safety
course, June 30.
Rear Admiral Barry Bruner, commander, Submarine
Group 10, recently completed the motorcycle safety
course
The requirement to ride defensively has never been
as important as it is today, said Bruner. Even though
Ive ridden motorcycles for many years, I learned a lot
during the expert riders course and I applaud those
who have taken the efforts to complete the motorcycle
safety course and ride responsibly.
Like Bruner, all military personnel who operate
a motorcycle on or off base, and as a requirement
to obtain a base decal, are required to complete an
approved motorcycle rider safety course, according to
the Naval Safety Center.
Command Master Chief (SS) Wesley Koshoffer,
Submarine Group Two command master chief, believes
in the motorcycle safety courses because it provides
safety aspects many Sailors may have not considered.
Also, most importantly, it helps to save lives.
Its not just about checking a box that you attended
a motorcycle safety course; its about hearing the
message, and applying that message to ensure you
can operate a motorcycle safety while driving, said
Koshoffer.
According to the Naval Safety Center more than two-
thirds of accidents involving cars and motorcycles, the
driver causes the wreck, not the motorcyclist. Most of
the time, the driver didnt see the motorcycle.
Lieutenant Bobby Forest, CSG Two safety officer,
assists with certifying command personnel to properly
ride motorcycles on and off base. He said Sailors need
to be aware of the training requirements, especially
after purchasing a sports bike.
Military personnel are required to complete a
motorcycle safety course within 60 days after purchas-
ing a sports bike, said Forest. We want our military
personnel to have all of the safety tips available to
safely operate a sports bike and to remain alive.
Completing the necessary training can save lives.
In 2010, 10 of 13 Naval motorcycle fatalities did not
complete all the mandatory training related to operat-
ing a sports bike per the Naval Safety Center.
Other Naval Safety Center tips to abide by while
riding motorcycles include: Dont assume a driver can
see you; take precautions before you ride by wear-
ing helmets with retro-reflective materials; keep your
headlights on while operating a motorcycle and if you
cant see a drivers face in his rear-view mirror, he
cant see you, either. Finally, be aware of your blind
spots and be cautious of the likely situations that lead
to accidents such as a driver changing lanes or turning
in your blind spot and road hazards.
Motorcycle safety training an all
hands evolution for all who ride
File photo
GROTON, Conn. - Naval Submarine Base New London (SUBASE) Sailors and personnel participate in last years Motorcycle Safety Course
at SUBASE. The safety departments for Commander, Submarine Group Two and Ten, Kings Bay, Ga., ramp up efforts to ensure all person-
nel who ride motorcycles on and off base are aware of motorcycle safety requirements with the motorcycle safety course.
December 2006, Marine
Gen. Peter Pace helped
shepherd him through the
intricacies of the building,
and Gates thanked Pace,
the chairman of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff at the time,
for his help.
Gates also thanked his
battle buddy, the cur-
rent chairman of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff, Navy Adm.
Mike Mullen.
Without Mikes advice
to me, his effective lead-
ership of the uniformed
military and our close part-
nership, the record of the
last several years would, I
think, have been very dif-
ferent, the secretary said.
Mike was never shy about
disagreeing with me, but
unfailingly steadfast and
loyal to me and to the pres-
idents he served once a
decision was made. He is
the epitome of a military
leader and officer, a man of
supreme integrity, a great
partner and a good friend.
Gates said he benefit-
ed from the great team
in the department when
he arrived, and the great
team that came in under
the Obama administration.
He thanked the political
appointees of both par-
ties and the career civil
servants for their efforts
in the Pentagon to pro-
vide for those serving on
battlefields in Iraq and
Afghanistan.
Gates also stressed
the need for cooperation
among federal agencies. He
specifically pointed out the
productive and warm rela-
tionship between the State
Department, DOD and the
intelligence community.
The blows struck
against al-Qaida, culmi-
nating in the [Osama] bin
Laden raid, exemplify the
remarkable transforma-
tion of how we must fuse
intelligence and military
operations in the 21st cen-
tury, he said.
Gates said his views on
cooperation with The State
Department have evolved
over his four decades of
government service. When
he began his public service
career in 1966, he said,
the secretaries of state and
defense barely spoke.
In the case of Secretaries
[Condoleezza] Rice and
[Hillary Rodham] Clinton,
I have not only been on
speaking terms with these
two formidable women,
weve also become cher-
ished colleagues and good
friends, he said.
Gates also testified before
Congress on the need for
more money for the State
Department. We should
never forget that diplo-
mats and development
experts from State and [the
Agency for International
Development] are taking
risks and making sacrific-
es in some of the planets
least hospitable places,
he said. And I speak for
all our military in appre-
ciating the contributions
they are making every day
to the success of our mis-
sions in Afghanistan, Iraq
and elsewhere around the
globe.
The secretary thanked
his wife, Becky, for her
help and support. When
President Bush asked
Gates to be the secretary,
he asked his wife what
she thought.
I was really wrestling
with the decision and final-
ly told her she could make
it a lot easier if she just
said she didnt want to go
back to D.C., Gates said.
She thought a moment
and replied, We have to
do what you have to do.
That is something military
spouses have said in one
form or another a mil-
lion times since 9/11 upon
learning that their loved
one received a deployment
notice or is considering
another tour of service.
She made it easy for
me to say yes to this job,
to do what I had to do to
answer the call to serve
when so much was at
stake for America and her
sons and daughters in two
wars, he added.
Gates has spent much
of the last few months
visiting with American
service members around
the world. He has put a
farewell message out to
the troops.
Though I was only able
to meet a small sample
of those who deployed
downrange, it was impor-
tant to meet, to look them
in the eye one last time
and let them know how
much I care about them
and appreciate what they
and their families do for
our country, he said.
Ill just say here that I
will think of these young
warriors - the ones who
fought, the ones who keep
on fighting, the ones who
never made it back - till
the end of my days.
Gates praised his succes-
sor as secretary, Leon E.
Panetta, who was sworn
in as the 23rd defense sec-
retary July 1.
This department and
this country are fortunate
that a statesman of Leon
Panettas caliber and expe-
rience has agreed to serve
once again, and at such
an important time, Gates
said. My parting advice
for Leon is to get his office
just the way he likes it - he
may be here longer than
he thinks.
Continued from page 1
Gates ...
To the men and women of the United States armed forces: Tomorrow, 30 June
2011, I will retire as Secretary of Defense. It has been the greatest honor of my
life to serve and to lead you for the past four and a half years.
All of that time we have been engaged in two wars and countless other opera-
tions. It has been a difficult time for you and for your families, from long and
repeated deployments for those in all four services - and the associated long sep-
arations from loved ones - to the anguish of those of you who have lost friends
and family in combat or those of you who have suffered visible and invisible
wounds of war yourselves. But your dedication, courage and skill have kept
America safe even while bringing the war in Iraq to a successful conclusion and,
I believe, at last turning the tide in Afghanistan. Your countrymen owe you their
freedom and their security. They sleep safely at night and pursue their dreams
during the day because you stand the watch and protect them.
For four and a half years, I have signed the orders deploying you, all too often
into harms way. This has weighed on me every day. I have known about and
felt your hardship, your difficulties, your sacrifice more than you can possibly
imagine. I have felt personally responsible for each of you, and so I have tried
to do all I could to provide whatever was needed so you could complete your
missions successfully and come home safely - and, if hurt, get the fastest and
best care in the world.
You are the best that America has to offer. My admiration and affection for
you is without limit, and I will think about you and your families and pray for
you every day for the rest of my life.
God bless you.

mer mayor of the city of
