WASHINGTON - A
young service member sad-
dled with debt and in need
of some quick cash doesnt
have to go far. Lenders offer-
ing same-day loans sit out-
side the gate of nearly every
military installation in the
nation.
But the lure of fast and
easy cash can lead strapped
troops down a path of steep
interest rates and fees that
far surpass their initial loan.
In other words, if it
sounds too good to be true,
it probably is, said Brenda
Linnington, director of the
Better Business Bureau
Military Line.
Protecting service mem-
bers and their families from
financial pitfalls such as pay-
day lenders is Linningtons
primary goal at Military
Line. The programs mis-
sion, she explained, is to
increase military members
financial literacy through
information, education and
outreach - both online and
on the ground.
Id like Military Line to
serve as a bridge between
the civilian and mili-
tary communities, said
Linnington, an Army veter-
an and the wife of an active-
duty Army officer. She
took on the job in January
after the former director,
Holly Petraeus, left to head
the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureaus Office
of Servicemember Affairs.
The program, created in
2004, also is a partner in
the Defense Departments
Financial Readiness
Campaign, she said, which
gives local bureau repre-
sentatives access to teach
financial literacy classes on
military installations. The
bureau, she added, has 164
local offices scattered across
the country.
The importance of a mili-
tary familys financial stabil-
ity cant be overestimated,
Linnington said.
If were deploying a
young Soldier and expecting
him to do great things on
our behalf, but hes greatly
in debt and collectors are
calling his family, she said,
that Soldier is never going
to be completely mission-
ready.
One major concern,
Linnington noted, is that
financial issues often lead to
the loss of security clearanc-
es, which can affect service
members ability to perform
their jobs.
To be under that level of
emotional strain and then
expect them to be a strong
family thats growing and
thriving is unrealistic, she
said.
Debt and debt manage-
ment are among the most
pressing financial issues for
service members and their
families, she noted, particu-
larly for the younger popula-
tion. Reports indicate that
junior service members carry
a heavier load of debt than
their civilian counterparts.
This debt combined with
a steady paycheck and a
strong sense of discipline
can add up to an attrac-

Information taken from
CNIC website
When a disaster hap-
pens, your family may
not be together in one
place. You need to pick
places to meet, have
contact information for
everyone, and discuss in
advance what you will do
during various types of
emergencies. Depending
on the type of emergency,
you may shelter in place,
move to a shelter or safe
haven, or evacuate.
Formalizing your prep-
arations in a written fam-
ily plan is a good way to
ensure everyone knows
what to do when there
is an emergency. Your
plan needs to take into
account special concerns
such as caring for very
young and very old fam-
ily members, protecting
your property, retaining
critical financial or insur-
ance records, and caring
for your pets.
Emergency kits
To fully prepare your
family for an emergency,
create one or more emer-
gency kits that include
enough supplies for at
least three days. Keep
a kit prepared at home
and consider also having
kits in your car, at work,
and a portable version
in your home ready to
take with you. These
kits will enable you and
your family to respond
to an emergency more
quickly. Your various
emergency kits will be
useful whether you have
to shelter in place or
evacuate.
What to put in your
basic home kit
Necessary
Water - at least one gal-
lon per person per day for
at least three days
Food - nonperishable
food for at least three
days
Manual can opener
First aid kit
Prescription medica-
tions
Dust masks
Personal sanitation sup-
plies such as moist tow-
elettes, garbage bags, and
plastic ties

and Atmospheric
Administration) weather

By MC1(AW) Peter D. Blair
GROTON, Conn.
Naval Submarine Base New
London honored the self-
less sacrifice of WWII Medal
of Honor recipient, Captain
John P. Cromwell, on
August 19 as the base dedi-
cated the new Submarine
Learning Center (SLC) head-
quaters in his name.
Cromwell was lost with
the USS Sculpin (SS 191) in
November 1943.
After Sculpin was severe-
ly damaged following an
attack on a Japanese con-
voy, Cromwell chose to
remain on board the sinking
submarine to avoid capture
and expected interrogation
by the enemy. His sacri-
fice safeguarded knowledge
that the United States had
cracked the Japanese Navys
messaging code system.
With the dedication of
Cromwell Hall, SUBASE
now has a building named
for each of the seven Medal
of Honor submariners of
WWII.
Ill admit to being little
bias, said Captain Emil
Casciano, SLC Commanding
Officer. But I think
Cromwell Hall has quite a
ring to it and is a marvelous
choice in helping mark the
legacy and contributions of
another Sailor in the long
line of submariners who
have gone before us.
Established in June 2003,
the SLC is an integral part of
the Navys training revolu-
tion implemented by Task
Force Excel. Through mod-
ernized training, the SLC
affects change necessary to
meet the Submarine Forces
expectation of amore agile
organization with improved
warfighting readiness.
The SLC is accountable
for all undersea curriculums,
training delivery methodolo-
gies and for developing and
maintaining professional
development continuums for
all undersea warfare ratings.
Before unveiling the new
buildings sign emblazoned
with Cromwell Hall, Captain
Marc W. Denno, SUBASE
Commanding Officer, drew
attention to an unusual
aspect to the ceremony.
As youll notice, unlike
other building dedica-
tions, this is an unveiling
not a ribbon cutting, said
Denno. This new build-

The Connecticut
Department of Veterans
Affairs in Rocky Hill is
expecting more than 1,000
homeless and needy veter-
ans to attend Stand Down
2011, an event that pro-
vides free services, assis-
tance and information from
federal and state agencies
as well as local business-
es and corporations for
Connecticut Veterans. This
event will be held Sept. 9
at the State Veterans Home
Campus, located at 287
West Street in Rocky Hill,
from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m.
This is the 16th year that
Connecticut has sponsored
Stand Down for its veterans
in need. Last year a record
1,300 needy veterans par-
ticipated in Stand Down at
the Rocky Hill campus.
Stand Down has become
a proud Connecticut tradition
and I believe it is our state
at its finest, Commissioner
Linda Schwartz said. Stand
Down is a place where
needy and homeless veter-
ans can receive the help that
they need. Where else in
Connecticut can you go to
court and get a case settled
and your license renewed,
get a hair cut, your teeth
cleaned and an eye exami-
nation all in the same day?
The Connecticut
Department of Veterans
Affairs, in conjunction with
state, federal and private
agencies, is the lead sponsor
of Stand Down. Supporting
state agencies include the
Connecticut Department
of Banking, Labor, Higher
Education, Mental Health
and Addiction Services,
Motor Vehicles, Public
Health, Social Services and
Transportation; the Office of
the Chief Public Defender;
and the Judicial Branch.
Participating Federal
agencies include the U.S.
Department of Veterans
Affairs, U.S. Department
of Labor and U.S. Social
Security Administration.
Needy veterans or their
advocates can pre-register
and receive more informa-
tion by calling (860) 616-
3801 or by visiting www.
ct.gov/ctva. However, pre-
registration is not required
to attend Stand Down.
Free transportation for
veterans is available from
pick-up locations around the
state. Key urban areas to be
served include Bridgeport,
Danbury, Hartford, Meriden,
New Britain, New Haven,
New London, Norwich,
Stamford, Torrington and
Waterbury.
Organizations and indi-
viduals interested in con-
tributing resources or ser-
vices to Stand Down 2011
are asked to contact the

Affairs at (860) 616-3801.

WASHINGTON - The
Navy announced in a mes-
sage released Aug. 4 that
Navy Child and Youth
Programs stand by to assist
military families with the
many preparations involved
for the coming school year.
Preparations include
gathering school supplies,
seeking information on new
schools, daycare availabil-
ity and researching infor-
mation on programs to help
children succeed. There are
many resources available
to help parents make these
preparations including
Navy programs for children
and youth, state-sponsored
information repositories
and as many websites.
[The] Navy Child and
Youth Program (CYP) phi-
losophy is that Navy CYP pro-
vides high-quality educational
and recreational programs for
children and youth. Teams of
caring, knowledgeable profes-
sionals plan developmentally
appropriate programs that
are responsive to the unique
needs, abilities, and interests
of children. The U.S. Navy
Child and Youth Program
welcomes children of all
abilities, said Peggy Harper,
Child and Youth Programs
manager, Commander, Navy
Installations Command
(CNIC).
Fleet and Family Support
Centers (FFSC), Child
Development Centers (CDC),
Child Development Homes
and youth centers provide
quality programs to equip
children and families for suc-
cess in the Navy mobile life-
style. With the heightened
rate of permanent-change-
of station moves during the
summer months, many fami-
lies find themselves hunting
for new daycares, school
enrollment procedures and
resources such as after-school
care, tutoring, and childrens
recreational activities. CYP
has many resources which
can alleviate the challenges
that come with these and
many other subjects through
their programs, which target
specific schools and educa-
tion objectives.
The first stop for every
Navy family for all mat-
ters related to kindergar-
ten through 12th grade
military child education
is the school liaison offi-
cer (SLO). The SLO works
with parents, commands
and local school commu-
nities to facilitate the best
education possible for the
military child. CYP through
Child and Youth Education
Services provides school
transition support, deploy-
ment support, special edu-
cation system assistance,
home school support, col-
lege and technical edu-
cation preparation and
more. SLOs provide the
most accurate and cur-
rent information available
about local school districts
so that parents can make
the best educational deci-
sions for their child.
CYP also offers school-
age care programs at 86
military base locations
worldwide. These programs
provide quality before and
after school programs for
children ages six to twelve
years.
CYP youth and teen pro-
grams offer developmental
and recreational programs
in a safe environment that
encourage learning and
growth. Program elements
may include health, sports,
fitness and leisure activi-
ties, youth Internet labs,
homework assistance labs,
and instructional courses
ranging from financial
management and job read-
iness to music and fitness.

Are you ready for the next disaster? Your commissary has what you need

By Kevin L. Robinson
DeCA public affairs specialist

FORT LEE, Va. If a
tornado, hurricane, flood
or any other natural disas-
ter strikes, would you be
able to survive? Thats the
question emergency pre-
paredness organizations
want the public to address
before the next crisis
occurs.
Disaster planning is con-
sidered crucial to improv-
ing your odds of survival,
and this year, the Defense
Commissary Agency has
worked with its industry
partners to offer many of
the items needed for severe
weather survival kits at
reduced prices, said DeCA
Director and CEO Joseph
H. Jeu.
We always offer certain
nonperishable foods, water
and inedible items such
as batteries as part of our
summer club packs, said
Jeu, referring to the bulk
purchases similar to what
a consumer would see at
a membership warehouse.
But this year our net-
work of industry partners
manufacturers, vendors
and suppliers offered
us a special package of
discounted items that our
customers would need to
augment their survival
kits, and we extended the
availability of these items
in our stores to coincide
with the peak periods of
severe weather.
Since April 1, items
such as canned chicken,
powdered milk, batteries,
weather-ready flashlights,
all-weather tape, first aid
kits, lighters, matches,
candles and hand sanitizer
have been reduced in price
as part of the severe weath-
er promotional package
that runs until Oct. 31.
DeCAs severe weather
promotional package coin-
cides with the prime time
for both tornado and hurri-
cane seasons in the United
States. Tornado season
runs from April to July.
According to the National
Weather Service, this year
the number of tornadoes
doubled in comparison to
the same period in 2010.
The Atlantic hurri-
cane season runs through
November and includes
the North Atlantic Ocean,
the Caribbean Sea and the
Gulf of Mexico. Predictions
from the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration call for a 70
percent chance for about
12 to18 named storms, six
to 10 of which will become
hurricanes, and three to six
are expected to be major
hurricanes. These predic-
tions do not include which
hurricanes will make land-
fall, because its not pos-
sible to plot landfall weeks
or months ahead of a
storm, the NOAA website
said.
Although theres lots of
attention, and deservedly
so, on the peak storm peri-
ods in the states, we want
our customers to know that
they need to stock their
food pantries with items to
sustain them for any emer-
gency natural or man-
made that could occur
anywhere in the world at
any time, Jeu said.
Emergency prepared-
ness officials suggest hav-
ing a disaster supply kit
that includes the following
items:
Water, at least one gal-
lon, daily, per person (three-
day supply for evacua-
tion, two-week supply for
home)
Nonperishable foods
canned meats, fruits, veg-
etables, dried fruits, nuts,
raisins, cereal, crackers,
cookies, energy bars, gra-
nola, peanut butter, and
foods for infants and the
elderly (three-day supply
for evacuation, two-week
supply for home)
Paper goods writing
paper, paper plates, paper
towels, toilet paper
Cooking items pots,
pans, baking sheet, cook-
ing utensils, charcoal, a grill
and a manual can opener
First-aid kit including
bandages, medicines and
prescription drugs
Cleaning materials
bleach, sanitizing spray,
and hand and laundry soap
Specialty foods diet
and low-calorie foods and
drinks
Toiletries personal
hygiene items and moisture
wipes
Pet care items food,
water, muzzle, leash, car-
rier, medications, medical
records, and identification
and immunization tags
Lighting accessories
flashlight, batteries, candles
and matches
Battery-powered or hand-
crank radio (NOAA
Weather Radio, if possible)
Duct tape, scissors
Copies of personal docu-
ments (medication list and
pertinent medical informa-
tion, proof of address, deed/
lease to home, passports,
birth certificates, insurance
policies)
Cell phone with chargers
Family and emergency
contact information
Extra cash
Emergency blanket
Maps of the area
DeCA recommends that
customers take advantage
of their commissary benefit
and its average savings of
30 percent or more to stock
up on emergency items that
can sustain them during a
crisis.

ing was so much more advanced
than the previous Submarine
Learning Center, and so ready
to make an immediate impact
across the education and train-
ing spectrum, the SLC leadership
wanted it online as soon as pos-
sible, and we opened its doors
in March.
The new Cromwell Hall, a
state of the art, $7 million dollar
building is one of the most ener-
gy efficient and environmentally
friendly facilities on SUBASE.
Heated by geothermal energy and
constructed with products with
significant recycled content, the
headquarters is roughly 30-40%
more energy efficient than the
energy code standard for com-
mercial buildings in the United
States.
It is truly a great Navy day
when we can honor our legacy
as well as highlight the impact
weve been making for our fleet,
our fighters and our families here
in New London, added Denno.
To assist in honoring the
Submarine Force legacy and
relaying Cromwells story, the
new Cromwell Hall will soon
have an impressive visual aid.
During the ceremony,
Cromwells son, Captain John
P. Jack Cromwell Jr., donated
his fathers Medal of Honor and
its accompanying citation, signed
by President Harry Truman, to
the Submarine Force Library and
Museum.
This is my most prized pos-
session that I am dedicating to the
museum, said Jack Cromwell. I
received my fathers Medal of
Honor some 65 years ago, and
I know the Submarine Museum
will keep it in a special place of
honor.
The museum will develop
a display within its Medal of
Honor Gallery to showcase the
award and will loan a replica to
Cromwell Hall for exhibit.
Originally awarded the Purple
Heart and Legion of Merit for
his actions onboard Sculpin,
Cromwell received the Medal of
Honor two years after his death
when the details of his sacrifice
were revealed by Sculpin survi-
vors who had been freed from
Japanese prison camps.
It was once said, and men
like Captain Cromwell prove,
courage is not the absence of
fear, but, rather, the belief that
something else is more important
than fear, said Casciano. And
in the nearly seven decades since
his selfless sacrifice, Captain
Cromwells actions continue to
serve as a model and an ideal to
which others can only hope to
aspire.

From Chief of Naval Personnel Public Affairs
WASHINGTON - Navy announced approval
for Sailors to wear minimalist footwear
with the Navy Physical Training Uniform
during command or unit physical training,
individual physical training and the semi-
annual physical readiness test, Aug. 5.
This was the result of requests from the
Fleet for guidance on the wear of these
types of footwear, said Captain William
Park, head, Officer Personnel Plans and
Policy. After thoroughly reviewing poten-
tial benefits and impacts in the Fleet, lead-
ership gave the approval.
NAVADMIN 238/11 defines minimalist
footwear as shoes that allow the foot to
function naturally without providing addi-
tional support or cushioning.
Examples of minimalist footwear are
included in the NAVADMIN.

Golf champs announced
tive target for scam artists,
Linnington said. Its very
enticing to someone look-
ing to entrap you in a
contract, she added. A
young private might not
make a large income, but
collectively, if theres a
bunch of privates, thats a
lot of money.
Linnington said the
scams have come fast and
furious in recent years.
Some scammers contact
military family members
by phone or email and
make false claims that the
service member has been
wounded overseas and
money is needed to help.
Or, a person posts a house
for rent, but when the
service member arrives,
the person has vanished,
along with the security
deposit.
And, while payday lend-
ers are, by law, capped at
36 percent, they find loop-
holes by charging fees as
opposed to boosting inter-
est rates.
There are some really
terrible things going on,
she said.
To avoid getting trapped
in a scam, Linnington
stressed the importance
of financial education and
well-being. Its getting
people to realize they need
to be careful and not nec-
essarily go on someones
word, she said.
Tackling debt also can
help, she said, since feeling
overwhelmed financially
can leave people more
vulnerable to unscrupu-
lous businesses and preda-
tory lenders.
People who are in over
their heads should talk
their local personal finan-
cial manager, she advised,
who can provide guidance
and referrals to helping
organizations, such as
military aid societies.
The Military Line web-
site also offers service-
specific resources, such
as consumer alerts and
guides, reports on busi-
nesses, and an avenue
to file complaints. The
bureau will help to resolve
issues and also alert the
military population of a
potential scam, she said.
