Naval Base Ventura County
(NBVC) has received the top
energy award fromthe Secretary
of the Navy for its water and
energy conservation efforts dur-
ing 2010.
The base received the SEC-
NAV Platinum Achievement

Question: My wife and I have noticed a lot of nice
housing on base that is empty. I have been a govern-
ment worker for more than 23 years and would like
very much to live on base. Im also retired Navy
Reserves. When will Naval Base Ventura County
(NBVC) have on-base housing available for govern-
ment workers? The government would make money
on those empty places.
Answer: The housing located on NBVC is a com-
bination of Public Private Venture (PPV) and Navy
Family Housing. Lincoln Military Housing is our
partner and, as such, owns and manages the PPV
houses.
Under our partnership agreement, Lincoln will
rent to active duty military and their family members
for the cost of Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) or
lower. If the units are not full, Lincoln tries to ll the
units by offering rent concessions, which allows them
to align with prices in the community. If the units re-
main vacant after incentives are offered, Lincoln may
offer the units to DoD civilians and retired military
members.
Currently, our PPV housing on board the base is
at capacity. Lincoln does, however, have vacancies
at Catalina Heights, located in Camarillo, and has
opened the units to DoD civilians and retired active
duty members.
We are not allowed to rent government-owned
housing, so we cannot offer incentives or rent conces-
sions. Military members are required to give up their
entire BAH. Because of this, you may notice some
vacant government-owned units. In order to maximize
utilization, we have converted some units to Single
Sailor housing and Navy Gateway Inns and Suites.
I strongly encourage you to call Lincoln Housing
at 805-419-4921 to inquire about availability of PPV
units at Catalina Heights.
Why cant base rent out empty housing?

Working and living on Naval Base Ven-
tura County (NBVC), its easy to forget
that not everyone can walk into the Navy
Exchange, see a movie in the Needham
Theater or jog the track next to the Bee-
hive Gym.
But inVentura County, there are 833,000
people roughly 850,000 county resi-
dents less the 17,000 who work at NBVC
who dont have base access.
On the morning of Friday, Sept. 23,
another 30 got the rare privilege of going
through the gates.
Upperclassmen and graduate students
at the Martin V. Smith School of Business
and Economics at California State Uni-
versity Channel Islands toured the coun-
tys No. 1 employer, visiting NBVC Port
Hueneme, a follow-up to last years tour
of NBVC Point Mugu.
That afternoon, they toured Patagonia,
and earlier tours have included Limo-
neira and JD Power and Associates.
We are trying to introduce students to
various businesses in Ventura County,
explained William P. Cordeiro, Ph.D., the
associate vice president for academic af-
fairs at the business school. We try to go
to two businesses on each tour, and we try
to do three tours a year.
He praised Capt. JimMcHugh, the base
commanding officer, for being a member
of the Business Advisory Council, bridg-
ing the school and the base and opening
the door for the tour.

Deployment is a fact of life for military
spouses and families.
Did you know we can experience a
cycle of emotions during the deploy-
ment cycle of workups, deployment and
return and reunion? Many seasoned mil-
itary spouses are familiar with something
called the emotional cycle of deploy-
ment.
First identified by Navy spouse Kath-
leen Vestal-Logan, the emotional cycle of
deployment identifies seven emotional
stages we experience during the pre-de-
ployment, deployment and post-deploy-
ment periods. When I first learned about
this cycle, I realized Im not alone and
not going crazy!
This column will look at the two stages
of this cycle that take place in the pre-
deployment phase of deployment readi-
ness and tips for successful navigation
through them.
Before we begin, it is interesting to note
that whether you are on a boomer ex-
periencing a shorter cruise, a surface
fleet or IA deployment or even TAD or-
ders for school, this phenomenon affects
us all to some degree.
Stage one, Anticipation of Loss, can
start as early as six weeks prior to deploy-
ment. We can be moody or depressed, even
irritable. We may bicker with our Sailor,
and there can begin an emotional distance
as we start to prepare for separation. Dur-
ing this time it is natural to wonder how
you will get through deployment alone. It
is natural to worry about the safety of
your Sailor. It is natural to wonder if you
can face the unknown without your part-
ner.
Men and women experience this phase
differently. As women ponder the upcom-
ing separation, we tend to want to spend
more time with our husbands. We want
to make memories and in essence fill up
our love tanks during this time.
Men on the other hand begin to with-
draw. For Sailors, the weeks prior to leav-
ing are filled with moving aboard and long
hours of readiness preparations. One
Sailor, my husband, said, It is easier to
pull away in the early on so it doesnt hurt
so deeply on the day we leave.
Take time during these two stages to
connect with the family support group.
Look for those relationships that will be
a support to you during deployment. Take
steps to build those relationships if they
are not in place. Contact your Fleet and
Family Support Center or ombudsman for
any suggestions and information on avail-
able groups. Make sure you know who
your ombudsman is and get on her e-mail
tree and newsletter list.
Keep talking to your spouse. Talk about
decisions you may face in their absence.
These questions can include things from
where to get the car repaired to spending
plans to emergency plans. Having these
conversations can help you feel more pre-
pared to handle their absence, especially
if this is your first deployment.
Stage two, Detachment and Withdraw-
al, usually takes place in the last week
before deployment. Spouses sometimes
experience fatigue. Sailors are busy mov-
ing aboard, often spending longer hours
on the ship, and begin to emotionally
separate during this week. This can be
hard on us as we want to hold on to
every moment we have left with our Sail-
or.
This stage may be characterized by am-
bivalence toward intimacy. On the one
hand we realize that this is our last chance
for physical intimacy for some time and
we dont want to lose that opportunity.
But because weve also begun to separate
emotionally it can be difficult to want to
open up that connection with our spouse.
Again, these are normal feelings.
The cycle of deployment will be a bit
different for each individual, but under-
standing and recognizing the stages em-
powers us as spouses to recognize and
respond to these stages in our lives.

What is the best school for my child?
The answer to that question is tricky.
Many factors must be considered when
determining what is best for a family.
The only way for a family to determine
what is best is to understand the different
ways that schools are assessed and rat-
ed.
All public schools must be accountable
for their curriculum and instruction, en-
suring that they are doing their job of
teaching children. In California, schools
are accountable to both federal and state
guidelines. Following is a brief explanation
of the annual reports available on every
public school in California. This informa-
tion comes from the California Depart-
ment of Educations Parent and Guard-
ian Guide to Californias 2010-2011
Accountability Progress Reporting Sys-
tem.
Average Performance Index (API): The
API Report is required by Californias
Public Schools Accountability Act (PSAA)
of 1999. This report shows how much a
school is improving based on their Average
Performance Index (API). Aschools API
is a number that ranges from 200 to 1000
and is calculated from the results of stan-
dardized tests. The goal is that each school
will reach an API of 800. Any school that
does not reach 800 is required to meet an-
nual growth targets. Those targets vary
for each school and each school district.
The growth target is 5 percent of the
difference between the schools API and
the statewide performance target of 800
with a five-point minimum.
Schools must meet API growth targets
for the whole school as well as for all nu-
merically significant groups of students
in the school. To be considered numeri-
cally significant, a student group must
include at least 100 students or at least 50
students who make up 15 percent or more
of the schools total population. Results
of numerically significant groups of stu-
dents are calculated for the following cat-
egories: Black or African American,
American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian,
Filipino, Hispanic or Latino, Native Ha-
waiian or Pacific Islander, White, Two or
More Races, Socioeconomically Disad-
vantaged, English Learners and Students
with Disabilities.
Annual Yearly Progress (AYP): The AYP
Report is required by the federal Elemen-
tary and Secondary Education Act
(ESEA), also known as No Child Left
Behind. This report shows how well
schools and school districts are meeting
common standards of academic perfor-
mance. Required AYP targets increase
yearly until the year 2013-2014, when all
schools must have 100 percent of their
students performing at or above the pro-
ficient level on statewide tests.
Program Improvement (PI): The PI Re-
port supplements the AYP Report by pro-
viding information on the PI status of
schools and school districts. A school or
school district that received federal Title
I funds is subject to identification for PI
if it does not make AYP for two years in
a row. A school identified for PI must no-
tify its parents and guardians about its PI
status and offer certain types of required
services during each year that it is a PI
school. A school or school district is eli-
gible to exit PI if it makes AYP for two
years in a row.
It is important to remember that stan-
dardized tests cannot fully describe how
students in the school are learning, pro-
gressing and thriving. Visit the school,
meet with the principal and teachers and
walk around to observe the activity in the
school. Talk to parents whose children
attend the school and get their feedback.
Use the state and federal reports as only
one way to determine what is best for
your student.
For more information on school reports or
any K-12 education related question, please
contact the NBVC school liaison officer at
989-5211 or e-mail monica.james@navy.mil.

Chaps, where have you been? PO1 has
been looking for you. One of his troops
has threatened that he is suicidal.
The words hit in a way that would have
anyone gasping for air. Of course, I have
been trained for this, but who can prepare
for the hard slap of reality? In the same
moment of that wake-up call, my attention
snapped to the present situation, and I
was off to find PO1 to get the details and
come to the aid of this hurting troop.
Thankfully, the Navy, along with all of
the armed services, is very aware of this
silent killer affecting so many men and
women in uniform. Adm. Mike Mullen,
past chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff,
is quoted as referring to the present suicide
rate in the armed forces as a crisis. He
describes it as a difficult, vexing, complex
problemthat is not well understood.De-
spite the many mysteries surrounding
suicide ideation and behavior, the Navy is
actively engaged in pushing back against
this deadly force.
The Navy currently places great empha-
sis on educating Sailors with the various
programs and resources available to them.
Two of the most prominent programs in-
clude the Operational Stress Control
model and the acronym ACT, which
stands for: A Ask the individual wheth-
er they are considering suicide; C Care
for the individual by listening to their ship-
mate intentionally; and T Treat the im-
mediate danger by going with the Sailor
to get the help and assistance they need.
All of these tools are intended to work
in a way that prevents a Sailor from even
reaching the point of contemplating sui-
cide, instead getting themto the necessary
resources when they are feeling depressed,
stressed out or just down. But the tools
are also effective in the event that suicide
first-aid must be employed.
Tools, training and resources will always
be helpful, but the most effective weapon
in our battle against suicide is making sure
that we are all pursuing authentic relation-
ships with those within our personal cir-
cles. Take time to really get to know those
you spend the most time with.
It has often been reported that most
victims of suicide were waiting to see if
just one person took an interest in them
before following through on their plan.
To be sure, we will never be able to catch
all of the signs, but we can all make fo-
cused efforts to get involved with those we
regularly interact with.
Suicide is a very harsh reality but is not
one that needs to make us feel helpless. If
you are struggling with dark thoughts,
depression or suicidal thoughts or actions,
please seek the resources available to you.
Find a chaplain, talk to your fire team or
squad leader or walk in to the Fleet and
Family Service Center. You can also call
the suicide hotline that is dedicated to
serving our service men and women at 1-
800-273-TALK (8255) or you can go to
www.suicide.navy.mil and chat live with
one of their counselors.
Getting help for yourself early on is the
most important thing to your command.
Your efforts to take care of yourself will
not be held against you or affect your ca-
reer. Your decision to wait could very well
affect your life.
You are not alone. Many people are
ready to walk with you through this dif-
ficult time.
Navy takes steps to stop the silent killer of Sailors
What the Navy is doing to help
prevent suicides in the military will
be one of the topics discussed Satur-
day, Oct. 8, during the Camarillo Out
of Darkness Walk, an event to raise

Considering the tough economy over
the past few years, the adage, If it seems
like its too good to be true, it probably
is, rings true. There are always tricksters
and deceptive businesses trying to take
advantage of individuals who are out of
work or trying to get out of debt. The
Better Business Bureau lists these top 10
complaints for 2010:
Job hunter scams: These scams try to
get access to personal information by re-
quiring applicants to pay a fee to be con-
sidered for a job. No reputable company
would ask applicants to pay fees.
Debt relief and settlement services:
Avoid companies that require fees upfront.
Often consumers are left with more debt
than when they enrolled in the program.
Work from home schemes: Be a mys-
tery shopper! Assemble items at home!
Learn the secrets of making money online!
Dont be fooled. These are often the bait
that entice individuals to give up their
bank account information.
Timeshare resellers: In a bad economy,
timeshare owners may become desperate
to unload their unused timeshare and be-
come targets for companies that claim to
have eager buyers. Fees are required
upfront. After paying the fees, the seller
never hears from the company again.
Not so freetrial offers: The Internet
is full of free trial offers of dietary supple-
ments, penny auctions and money-making
schemes. Often the free trial requires a
credit card number. Once the free trial is
received, consumers are billed monthly
and the offer is difficult to cancel.
Itinerant home repairs: Companies go
door-to-door offering services. They often
take a down payment for materials and
are never seen again. Check out any com-
pany before signing a contract.
Lottery and sweepstakes scams: Scam-
mers announce that you have won mil-
lions; all you need to do is wire funds to
cover the taxes. The prize never arrives.
Identity Theft: Millions fall victim
every year through data breaches, theft,
phishing emails, phone calls and texts.
Advance fee loan scams: You qualify
for a loan of $5,000! All you have to do is
pay a fee upfront and well wire the mon-
ey to your account! You wire the money,
but never receive the loan.
Overpayment scams: Youre selling
your car on the Internet. A buyer sends
you a check, but the check is for more than
the selling price. The buyer asks you to
wire back the extra money. Usually, the
check is forged and the victim is out the
money he wired.
How do you avoid these scams? Check
out the company with the Better Business
Bureau online at www.bbb.org. Consum-
ers can use this site to find out more about
all these topics and how to avoid being
scammed.
It sounds too good to be true!
The NMCRS Thrift Shop will no longer
accept donations of or sell any combat
uniforms. All uniforms should be turned
into a commands supply department and
turned over to DLADisposition Services.

Flu shots ready Oct. 11
By MCC Daniel Pearson
Naval Facilities Expeditionary Logistics Center
Seabees fromthe 31st Seabee Readiness
Group(SRG) at Naval Base Ventura Coun-
ty, Port Hueneme, recently trained Marines
from the 9th Engineer Support Battalion
(ESB) to construct non-standard bridging
using timber, hand tools and muscle.
During the Sept. 12-16 training, Seabees
taught Marines from the 9th ESBs Bridg-
ing Platoon valuable skills in preparation
for the battalions upcoming deployment
to Afghanistan.
Weve been looking at the after-action
reports of (the battalion were relieving),
anda lot of the missions theyre doing have
beentaking MGBs (MediumGirder Bridg-
es) and replacing them with non-standard
bridges, said 1st Lt. Matthew Paluta,
Bridging Platoon commander. This is a
great opportunity for us to develop that
skill set.
Medium Girder Bridges are only rated
for 10,000 passes before they must be disas-
sembled and every component checked for
structural integrity. Many of the bridges
built by U.S. forces in Afghanistan are get-
ting close to that limit.
What this is going to do is allow us to
pull our assets and give the Afghans more
of a long-term structure, said Staff Sgt.
RichardGlory, platoonsergeant. If theyre
taught howto do it, they can do their own
repairs.
The training needed to construct a non-
standard timber bridge is not available in
the Marine Corps, so the platoon came to
the Seabees to gain the mission skills they
need.
Its different from what we usually get.
Instead of pins in metal bridges, we use
bolts and wood. Its an alternative to met-
al bridging in case we dont have the means
and supplies to do an MGB, explained
Lance Cpl. John Hoover. We get to put it
together andtake it apart andtrysomething
newby adding more bays tomake it longer.
The quality of the training was really
high.
According to Steelworker 2nd Class
(SCW) Joseph Hamilton, 31st SRG Con-
tingency Construction Crew Training, the
Marines were motivated.
They want to do it all by hand, because
usually they wont have a forklift, he ex-
plained.
They trained in full battle gear with Kev-
lar and body armor and lifted 20-foot-long
timbers into place to build the three-bay
bridge.
Most of these guys have only dealt with
the MGB and have never built a timber
bridge at all, Hamilton said.
The Seabee instructors expertise was
welcomed by the Marines of 9th ESB.
The Seabees really know a lot about
bridging. Theyre helping us a lot, said
Pfc. Timothy Haerr. Were learning how
to put them up and take them down so we
can do it faster in combat. Ive learned a
lot in a short period of time.
The Marines evident enthusiasmwas due
in part to the scarcity of the training, ac-
cording to 9th ESB Seabee liaison officer,
2nd Lt. Matthew Librizzi.
We dont get many chances to do this
in Okinawa, so when they get the chance,
they are all into it, he said. Its a good
experience for the Marines to get.
This was not the first time, and probably
not the last, that Marines fromthe 9th ESB
worked with Seabees from Port Hueneme
to accomplish a task.
In 2007 in Iraq, the 9th ESBworked side
by side with Seabees from Naval Mobile
Construction Battalion 4 building combat
operation outposts, forward operating
bases and clearing roads of improvised
explosive devices. The 9thESBMarines and
Seabees from NMCB 4 helped coalition
forces achieve provincial Iraqi control.
The training should pay off in another
way for both the Marines and the Seabees:
in mutual respect and camaraderie. The
Seabee instructors knowledge and the Ma-
rines discipline and motivation were just
some of the qualities commented on by the
trainers and trainees.
Some of these junior Marines have
never operated with Seabees, said Glory.
As combat engineers, we operate withSea-
bees on a regular basis, and this helps build
rapport.

Golf is humbling.
Whiff on that first tee, miss that two-
foot putt yes, its very humbling.
And humility along with patience,
exercise and being outdoors is some-
thing every kid can use these days.
So believes Brett Lane, the sports and
fitness coordinator for Naval Base Ven-
tura Countys Child Youth Programs,
explaining why he has introduced the base
to the First Tee program, a non-competi-
tive way to learn about golf and nine core
life skills honesty, integrity, sportsman-
ship, respect, confidence, responsibility,
perseverance, courtesy and judgment.
Golf is one of those sports you can
do until youre 80 years old, Lane said.
You take it to your grave with you. And
its such a tough game youre never go-
ing to master it. You have to be humble
and patient, and especially in this age of
instant gratification, patience is a good
thing to teach kids.
Plus, with golf, you dont even know
youre exercising.
First Tee classes are open to youngsters
5 to 17 years old and begin the week of
Tuesday, Oct. 11, and continue once a
week for eight weeks. Registration is free
for all military dependents.
Lane likes the fact that youngsters chal-
lenge themselves in this program. Theyre
not trying to keep up with anyone else,
theyre not trying to avoid being tackled,
theyre not pushing someone else out of
the way. Theyre working at their own pace
and relying on their own inner sense of
competition.
Theyre learning self-discipline, what
they can accomplish within their skill
level, Lane said. Theyre learning that
distance isnt necessarily the most impor-
tant thing, that accuracy is just as impor-
tant.
At the same time, no one is working in
a vacuum.
This program gives the kids the op-
portunity to interrelate with each other
and to have fun. They walk away having
learned something, having accomplished
something.
The October classes are the second
round for First Tee. In August, 29 children
enrolled in the eight-week program.
Burke Frank, 6, whose father, John, is
a lieutenant with the Civil Engineer Corps
Officers School, enrolled in that program
because she wanted to play golf with her
dad.
She ended up liking it for a different
reason.
Theres no winner or loser, she said.
No one can get their feelings hurt.
The hourlong classes are offered Tues-
day, Wednesday and Thursday at the Port
Hueneme Seabee Golf Club.
Tuesday and Thursday classes are at
3:30 p.m. for 10- to 17-year-olds and at
4:30 p.m. for 5- to 9-year-olds.
Wednesday classes are at 3:30 p.m. for
5- to 9-year-olds and at 4:30 p.m. for 10- to
17-year-olds.
For more information, call Lane at 982-
5460 or e-mail himat nbvc_youthsports@

collar started inflating that Ben pulled
harder. Suddenly the life preserver waist
began to inflate the activated flota-
tional devices making the pilot look like
a green Michelin Man and the little
boy got the giggles.
Everyone in the room started laughing
too and for a moment everyone forgot
that this charming Camarillo youngster
is fighting brain cancer and that his most
recent surgery was just two months ago.
Bens visit with Air Test and Evaluation
Squadron 30 (VX-30) on Thursday, Sept.
22, was tied in to the kickoff of the Cali-
fornia Gold Coast Combined Federal
Campaign, which raises money for chari-
ties, some of which have benefited Ben
and his family.
Ben, who loves to cook, wanted to make
hamburgers for the kickoff at Naval Base
Ventura County, Point Mugu.
But when VX-30s commanding officer,
Cmdr. John Rousseau, found out about
Bens visit, he took it another step and
gave the Ostertags an unforgettable morn-
ing with the Bloodhounds.
Ben, Jack and their parents, Amy and
Lee, started off the morning by sitting
through the officers weekly briefing,
which included recent video taken by the
squadron of a successful missile launch.
Next, the boys tried on survival gear,
including a 25-pound vest loaded with
flares, a flashlight, a radio, sea-dye mark-
ers and other essentials. Then, after letting
Jack and Ben inflate the survival gear on
Lt. Josh Krieg gear that Krieg would
activate if he ever had to ditch his aircraft
in the ocean Rousseau gave Ben a leath-
er flight jacket and a VX-30 patch and cap
and a bag of M&Ms for good mea-
sure.
Afterwards, they took him outside for
another surprise.
Painted on the cockpit of one of VX-
30s S-3B Vikings were the words: Ben
Ostertag, Chief Test Pilot.
Bens grin only got bigger and he
hadnt even toured a plane yet.
He and Jack clambered into a KC-130
and a P-3, where they got to see first-hand
how the pilots fly the large aircraft.
Then the boys spent an hour in the S-3B
simulator, where they were able to fly
the aircraft and make successful land-
ings, with a little advice from VX-30
aviators.
Next came the lunch, complete with
Bens own homemade coleslaw and bar-
becue sauce.
What a fun day! Amy Ostertag said
that evening after the family had returned
home. VX-30 took Ben under his wing,
and Im blown away. Im still in shock.
She said Ben didnt want to take off his
flight jacket the rest of the day.
It was a real pleasure for the squadron
to meet Ben and his family, Rousseau
said. Ben is an inspiration to us. Some-
times you hear it the other way around,
but were the ones who are honored to be
able to put a smile on his face and make
this day special for him.

Ostertag was the Ben Ostertag, Chief

cancer, poses outside the cockpit with his

MUSAQALEH, AfghanistanTwen-
ty-five of Naval Mobile Construction Bat-
talion (NMCB) 4s Seabees are construct-
ing the Musa Qaleh low water crossing
to provide a lasting solution for a trans-
portation route across the wadi (riverbed)
to improve the Afghans quality of life
and encourage stability in the district.
By mid-September, the project at Musa
Qaleh was well underway.
Each day the men and women go out-
side the wire for 10- to 12-hour workdays
and overcome many difficulties to instill
faith in the Afghans that this crossing will
be a lasting reality.
In full battle-rattle, despite high tem-
peratures, curious crowds and the extreme
precision required in placing up to 20,000-
pound pieces of concrete, they continue
to produce quality results.
The amount of water in the ground
makes the soil unstable,said Chief Steel-
worker Jonathan Swagerty. Placing the
pieces accurately is very difficult and re-
quires extra effort to get them to all line
up properly.Area residents are naturally
curious about the project being built in
the middle of their main thoroughfare.
Keeping them out of the project site
is difficult because theyre friendly and
curious and you dont want to be rude,
said Equipment Operator 2nd Class Fer-
nando Mendoza.
Composed primarily of equipment op-
erators to drive heavy equipment and
steelworkers to weld all the pieces in place,
the Seabees on this detail were hand-se-
lected because they are some of the best
NMCB 4 has to offer.
Being away from the battalion main-
body means there is more to do and we
get more experience, said Equipment
Operator 3rd Class Eric Muckey.
The Seabees hard work is becoming
apparent as the first of two spans begins
to take shape despite many obstacles to
overcome. They will certainly leave their
mark here as they provide Musa Qaleh
residents with a major link to the provin-
cial capital, Lashkar Gah, centers of com-
merce and populations to the south.
I like working outside the wire, seeing
the [Afghans] and knowing Im making a
difference! said Steelworker Construc-
tionman Brittney LeQuia.
During the rainy season, the now-dry
wadi becomes a surging river that isolates
the district and turns it into an island tra-
versable only by ferry. Previous attempts
to bridge the wadi have degraded the faith
of the people in the government of the
Islamic Republic of Afghanistan and the
International Security Assistance Forces
ability to provide a permanent solution.
So the low water crossing was conceived
as a CERP Commanders Emergency
Response Program project to turn the
tide, so to speak.
Numerous designs were proposed, and
the battalions apprehension in the con-
structability of early designs was apparent
as the deadline to start before the rainy
season was fast approaching.
At last a design was finalized and pro-
duction of the pre-cast components was
approved.
The structure is made of nearly 200 pre-
fabricated reinforced concrete pieces and
held together by more than 15,000
welds.
To boost II Marine Expeditionary Force
(Forward) confidence in the project, test
the design and work through assembly
challenges in a safer environment, NMCB
4 constructed a small portion of the cross-
ing at Camp Leatherneck.

Navy for platinum level achievement are
continually being raised, which results in
huge challenges for NBVC to continue
performing at the highest level. Only three
bases within Navy Region Southwest and
only 10 bases Navywide received this pres-
tigious award.
Wiltshire said the NBVC energy team
will continue to focus on reducing energy
and water consumption through effective
awareness programs, innovative energy
and water projects, increased renewable
energy on base, and a constant focus on
low-cost, no-cost solutions.
Since 2003, NBVC has reduced its en-
ergy usage by 24 percent; the federally
mandated goal for this time frame is 18
percent.
Since 2007, NBVC has reduced water
usage by 52 percent; the federally man-
dated goal for this time frame is 8 per-
cent.
Through hard work and devotion to
energy and water reduction, NBVC is ex-
ceeding the federally mandated goals.

The Navys Energy Efficiency Technol-
ogy Validation (Techval) program recent-
ly completed the retrofit of an entire build-
ing with light-emitting diode (LED)
lighting at Marine Corps Air Ground
Combat Center (MCAGCC) Twentynine
Palms.
The Twentynine Palms Officers Club is
now expected to deliver an energy savings
of more than 32,000 kilowatt hours and
cost savings of more than $9,000 per year
in energy and maintenance.
The Techval program is managed
through the Naval Facilities Engineering
Service Center (NAVFAC ESC) at Naval
Base Ventura County.
The energy savings gained through the
use of LED lighting has the potential to
save millions of dollars for the Navy and
for American taxpayers,said Capt. Brant
D. Pickrell, commanding officer of the
Naval Facilities Engineering Service Cen-
ter. While there are many Techval-spon-
sored LED lighting demonstrations un-
derway at various Navy shore facilities,
this is the first time we have attempted the
retrofit of an entire building. The results
have been promising and most encourag-
ing.
This project, completed Aug. 30, show-
cases the potential that LED technology
can provide with indoor lighting through-
out a variety of capacities and scenarios.
The scope of work for this project in-
cluded replacing MR-16 halogen lamps,
compact fluorescent lamps (CFL), 2x2
parabolic fluorescent fixtures and incan-
descent landscape lighting with LED
lamps.
Among the many benefits of LEDlight-
ing are energy savings from reduced lamp
wattage and air conditioning energy sav-
ings due to reduced lamp heat. LEDlight-
ing systems enjoy a longer service life than
incandescent or fluorescent lamps, further
reducing maintenance costs.
Moreover, since LEDs do not contain
mercury, they are a tremendous improve-
ment over the older fluorescent tubes and
compact fluorescent light bulbs, which
contain that element and require proper
disposal to prevent mercury from poison-
ing landfills. LED lighting does not emit
infrared or ultraviolet radiation, making
them ideal for illuminating artwork or
other sensitive displays.
MCAGCC Twentynine Palms was se-
lected to host this technology demonstra-
tion due to expensive electricity costs
prevalent in the region. The new lighting
will provide immediate relief in the sites
energy costs.
Given the annual cost savings of nearly
$10,000 in energy and maintenance, the
total retrofit costs of $80,000 is offset and
bolsters the Navys efforts to achieve the
Secretary of the Navys ambitious energy
goals of increasing alternative energy
ashore to 50 percent by 2020 and increase
total alternative energy use to 40 percent
by 2020. The simple payback of this proj-
ect is estimated to be 8.25 years.
This building is a showcase for the po-
tential that newenergy-related technology
can provide to the Navy and Marine
Corps.

Capt. Beth Dexter, commanding officer of the Engineering Duty Officer School, speaks to
a class.
By Cmdr. John Lowery
Engineering Duty Officer School
Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC) is
home to many tenant commands that play
significant roles executing the Navys mis-
sion. NBVC Port Hueneme is tradition-
ally associated as the home of the Pacific
Seabees. It is, however, also home to an-
other community of engineers: those rep-
resented at the Engineering Duty Officer
(EDO) School.
Under the direction of Naval Education
and Training Command (NETC) in Pen-
sacola, Fla., its instructors use a balance
of blended learning including standard
classrooms, hands-on labs, simulations
and interactive courseware to produce
a community of more than 750 highly
specialized restricted line officers, or
EDOs.
EDOs focus on the life-cycle research,
development, acquisition, construction,
maintenance, modernization and dispos-
al of all ship and submarine systems.
Founded in 1974 and originally located
at Naval Station, Mare Island, the school
transferred its command to Port Hueneme
in August 1994.
The schools staff of eight coordinates
four basic courses and two senior courses
a year. To date, 2,696 basic course stu-
dents, 836 reserve course students and
1,622 senior course engineering duty of-
ficers have graduated.
The schools five-week basic course pro-
vides newly selected EDOs with the knowl-
edge of plans, programs, policies and
procedures by which the Navy accom-
plishes the acquisition and life cycle engi-
neering of naval ships, submarines and
systems.
The course doesnt teach engineering in
an academic sense because students have
already earned their technical master de-
grees. Rather, it focuses on the methods
by which the Navy manages the engineer-
ing of its ships and systems.
In addition to subjects taught by staff
and technical experts, students receive ap-
proximately 25 percent of their instruction
fromsenior community leaders, including
flag officers and senior executive service
members in specific programareas. These
guest lecturers provide students the most
up-to-date information in a given field,
while delivering first-hand leadership ad-
vice and the opportunity for one-on-one

Seabees from Naval Mobile Construction
Battalion (NMCB) 40 recently completed
their fourth and final Command Post Exercise
(CPX 4) in preparation for this months Field
Training Exercise at Fort Hunter Liggett.
The training priority is focused primarily
on safety, accountability, communications,
command and control, maneuverability, tac-
tics and a positive attitude, said NMCB 40s
Ensign Grant Glover.
NMCB 40s Convoy Security Element (CSE)
conducted movement operations at a training
facility at Naval Base Ventura County, Point
Mugu, to test their ability to handle different
hostile threat scenarios. Participating in the
units training is Defense Training Systems,
a company that provides and incorporates
simulated improvised explosive devices (IEDs)
and civilian, foreign national role players.
The CSE team, while on a simulated convoy,
spotted an IED threat in the road and took
appropriate measures to negate the situa-
tion.
I think the training with the civilian role
players makes the training much more real-
istic and effective, said Glover. The CSE
team is comprised mostly of E-5 and below,
and they are doing a great job.
Glover explained that the ability to move

personnel and equipment is essential, and that
CSE provides the mobility portion of the
units name, Naval Mobile Construction
Battalion.
The way todays scenario played out proves
that we have the ability to do that, said Glov-
er.

Help when you need it.
The Fleet & Family
Support Center
Twenty-five ombudsmen from 17 com-
mands were honored Thursday, Sept. 22,
during the annual Ombudsman Appre-
ciation Luncheon at the Bard Mansion,
Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC) Port
Hueneme.
It is an incredible load they carry for
us, said Dave Oehldrich, ombudsman
coordinator. They do a super job.
Oehldrich pointed out that each om-
budsman attends a three-day training,
and then theyre thrown out there.
In addition to maintaining confidential-
ity and being the communication link
between families and the command, they
also provide families the information they
need to become self-reliant in often un-
predictable situations.
In the six years I have coordinated this
program, I cant think of one time where
they couldnt do it,Oehldrich said. The
families and command leadership are very
appreciative of the work these ombudsmen
do.

Help when you need it.
The Fleet & Family
Support Center
By Andrea Howry
Lighthouse editor
She has comforted crying spouses cop-
ing with their first deployment.
She has steered families in the right
direction when the paycheck took a de-
tour.
And she has linked up families with the
Fleet and Family Support Center (FFSC),
the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society
(NMCRS) and myriad other sources of
assistance at Naval Base Ventura Coun-
ty (NBVC).
Now, after more than five years as an
ombudsman the last year as the NBVC
ombudsman Tina Egelston is leaving
the base as her husband, Chief Steel-
worker Allen Egelston of Naval Mobile
Construction Battalion 40, retires. The
couple, along with their 9-year-old son,
Alex, plans to stay in the Thousand Oaks
area.
Its a new five-year plan, Egelston
says with a smile.
The Navy created the ombudsman pro-
gram 41 years ago to provide a link be-
tween families and command leaders. The
ombudsman keeps the commanding of-
ficer informed as to the morale, health
and welfare of families, and families are
kept up-to-date on the latest command
news via newsletter, e-mail or social me-
dia.
This emphasis on families wasnt al-
ways strong, Egelston says. Shes been a
Navy spouse for 22 years, and shes seen
a lot of changes.
Families are now considered a critical
and essential part of the Navys mission,
she said. Thats a big step.
Still, she knows personally the toll
military life can take on a family. Shes
been through 11 deployments in 22 years
half the time Ive been married, she
notes.
By far the most difficult was the most
recent, the one that ended earlier this year
after her husband spent more than eight
months in Afghanistan. Not only did the
family suffer several personal losses while
he was gone, Alex was old enough to
know his dad was in a dangerous place.
It wasnt Dads working with Bob the
Builder anymore, Egelston says. He
was upset.
So Egelston has spoken with experience
in her years as an ombudsman. She has
also brought a wealth of knowledge from
her work with the NMCRS, where she
has volunteered for 10 years, first as a
teacher in the Budget for Baby classes,
now as chair of the caseworkers.
Egelston sees the ombudsman as being,
first and foremost, an information and
referral specialist. When a family comes
to her with a problem, she wont neces-
sarily solve it, but she will tell them where
to go for that solution.
We have lots of resources we can
pull from, she says. I cant do the
hands-on assistance, but I can point
them in the right direction.
Sometimes, she serves as translator.
There are so many acronyms in the
Navy, Egelston says. Sometimes Ive
had to ask people to please just speak
English.
The most difficult part of being an
ombudsman is time management.
Youve got to make the time to be
an ombudsman, she says.
The support of other organizations,
primarily the Family Readiness Groups,
is also critical.
FRGs are awesome, she says. They
can make or break an ombudsman.
Egelston plans to work part-time as
her son continues school, and she hopes
someday to go to college.
But right now, my sons education
comes first, she says.
Will she miss being an ombuds-
man?
I sure will, she answers. Ive en-
joyed my time serving the families of
the commands, and I know Ive helped
families feel connected.

Seabees from Naval Mobile Construc-
tion Battalion (NMCB) 3 spoke with
Seabee veterans about current Seabee
operations during a Seabee Veterans of
America dinner in Ventura last month.
Twenty people attended the Sept. 6
dinner and exchanged stories of their
previous Navy experiences. They mar-
veled at how things had changed since
their time in service.
Following the dinner, Cmdr. Scott
Raymond, the commanding officer of
NMCB 3, addressed the attendees. His
speech discussed changes within the Sea-
bee community that have been made in
the last few years, such as the Seabees
alignment with Navy Expeditionary
Combat Command (NECC). He also
discussed some currently proposed
changes, which included the decommis-
sioning of two other battalions and the
community-wide adjustments required
as a result.
Command Master Chief (SCW/EXW)
Percy Trent spoke with the veterans
about NMCB 3s recent deployment to
Afghanistan.
Lara Godbille, the director of the Sea-
bee Museum, was in attendance, and she
provided the veterans with updates on the
new 38,000-square-foot facility that will
eventually house up to 12,000 artifacts of
Seabee history from current day back to
World War II. Godbille expressed appre-
ciation of the support she has received
fromthe veterans andexpressedher thanks
to everyone present.
This was a great opportunity for us to
connect with those Seabees who literally
paved the roads to success in nearly every
American military campaign since World
War II, said Lt. Andrew Hayes, NMCB
3s assistant operations officer who was
also present. We owe these men and their
families a debt of gratitude for the con-
tributions they have made to protect our
nation and for laying the groundwork to
form the Seabee organization that we
know today.
NMCB 3 is homeported in Port Huen-
eme and is preparing for a spring deploy-
ment to Europe and Africa.

Lighthouse editor
Its so complicated! I remember when I was
a kid, we didnt have anything like this!
Master at Arms 2nd Class Nathan Hoatland
of Carrier Airborne Command and Control
Squadron 117 (VAW-117) shared the views of
many as he pulled straps and fastened buckles
on an item whose three-word name causes
more anxiety in new parents than some as-
sembly required: child safety seat.
Restraint systems, booster seats whatever
you want to call them, theyve become so com-
plicated that the safety manager for Naval Base
Ventura County is providing several safety
checks each year for parents to make sure
theyre installed correctly. The most recent one
was Friday, Sept. 23, at Naval Base Ventura
County, Point Mugu.
About a dozen cars pulled up in the inclem-
ent weather so car seat technicians thats
their real title from Ventura County Public
Healths Safe Kids program could make sure
belts were tight enough, harnesses werent
loose, tethers were being used correctly and
the seats themselves hadnt expired.
Expiration dates? On car seats?
Yes, technicians explained, car seats do expire
because the frames and belts usually take a
beating, especially with so many doing double-
duty as baby carriers.
Hoatland and his wife, Aleigha, who is due
with their first child in October, said the safe-
ty check allayed many of their concerns.
We had to make adjustments to the base
of the car seat, she said. The car seat itself
is just common sense, but knowing exactly
where to put the base is tricky.
Technician Alice Sweet said the systems are
actually easier than they used to be.
Using a doll, the parents-to-be practiced
adjusting the harness straps, something theyll
need to do as the baby gets bigger.
And if they forget howafter the baby comes,
theyll be able to get help.
NBVC Safety Manager George Egeler said
there will be another check before families hit
the road for the holidays.
Car seat check an eye-opener
PHOTO BY ANDREA HOWRY / LIGHTHOUSE
MA2 Nathan Hoatland of VAW-117 and his wife, Aleigha, try to decipher a car
seat using a doll as a substitute for their baby, which is due in mid-October.
About a dozen parents and parents-to-be stopped by the car seat safety check
Friday, Sept. 23, at Naval Base Ventura County, Point Mugu.
Sure, installing and
adjusting car seats is tough,
but who knew they have an

career counseling.
Whereas the basic course is for newly
selected EDOs, the two-week senior course
prepares EDOs who have been selected to
the rank of commander with the increased
responsibilities they will have in the ac-
quisition and life-cycle engineering man-
agement of naval ships, submarines and
systems. In addition, students are prepared
for their role as senior officers in the EDO
community. The seminar-style course is
primarily taught by senior officers, O-6
and above, and guest lecturers. Topics are
selected to provide a broadened knowledge
of naval engineering leadership and man-
agement techniques, as well as an aware-
ness of new developments in engineering
technology. In addition to the classroom
sessions, each student has the opportu-
nity for one-on-one career counseling with
all the guest speakers.
As the Navy and technology have
evolved, so has the scope of engineering
efforts across our fleets. Today, EDOs span
a wide variety of efforts that still includes
ship and submarine construction, but also
the development and fielding of all ship
and submarine systems, the maintenance
and modernization of those systems and
ultimate disposal. Many EDOs have left
a lasting mark on the capability of our
fleets and to establish our Navy as the best
in the world and as a global force for
good.
Engineering expertise and technical spe-
cialists in the U.S. Navy have always been
required to bridge the gap between the
advancing threat and shipboard applica-
tions of technology needed to counter
those threats. While specialties and orga-
nizations have been modified to suit the
changing times, a group competent in
technical matters and closely associated
with operating forces has been, and will
continue to be, required. The EDOcom-
munity fills that void.

EDO School based at NBVC
In greeting the students at the Seabee
Museum, McHugh explained that in
many ways, running the base is the same
as running a business. From hiring the
best and the brightest to providing in-
ternships to being good stewards of the
environment, the Navy has many of the
same goals as private industry.
Im really proud of how engaged we
are in this community, McHugh told
the group. And in return, this county
is very supportive. This is a great place
for our folks to be.
In addition to the Seabee Museum,
the students visited the Naval Construc-
tion Training Center, where Lt. Cmdr.
Chad Koster, the executive officer,
briefed them on the different rates in
the construction battalions and talked
about the Seabees future in the current
economy.
This is an extremely skilled work-
force, he said. The skills the Seabees
learned are easily transferable into the
private sector. Theyre getting jobs.
Led by Russell George, the students
also toured the Surface Warfare Engi-
neering Facility, then returned to the
museum for lunch.
Steven Jordan of Port Hueneme, a
junior majoring in international eco-
nomics and political science, said he
appreciated the tour.
With security having increased since
9/11, access to the base has gone down,
and allowing the university to come for
a tour is excellent, he said.
He said he was also impressed that
McHugh took the time to talk with the
students.
For the top man on base to come
down and talk to us, and for him to be
involved with the Business Advisory
Council, thats phenomenal, he said.

Capt. Jim McHugh, commanding officer of Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC), welcomes
business students from California State University Channel Islands. The students visited
the Seabee Museum, the Naval Construction Training Center and the Surface Warfare
Engineering Facility during their tour of NBVC Port Hueneme.
For the top man on
base to come down
and talk to us, and
for him to be involved
