An estimated 14,000 people
attended the 2011 Seabee Days
at Naval Base Ventura County
(NBVC) Port Hueneme, an
event that celebrated more
than six decades of work by
the Navys construction bat-
talions and honored themwith
the opening of a brand-new
Seabee Museum.
Anemotional highlight came
during opening ceremonies on
Saturday, July 23, when a util-
itiesman from Naval Mobile
Construction Battalion 40 re-
ceived a Purple Heart for inju-
ries suffered during his deploy-
ment to Afghanistan in 2010.
Seabee Days actually began
on Friday, July 22, when any-
one with base access could at-
tend Military Appreciation
Purple Heart
given to NMCB

Why arent there any dog parks at Naval Base Ventura County?
Question: Would it be feasible to have an off-leash
dog park at Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC)
Point Mugu?
I recently moved to Mugu and absolutely love the
atmosphere and facilities. The only thing I am miss-
ing is a way to socialize and exercise my dog. I have
noticed while jogging around that many of the dogs
have developed some fence aggression, and I think
adding a dog park would help alleviate this.
If it were possible, I could be willing to commit
my own time and energy to organizing, fundraising
or maintaining such an area. I also thought Lincoln
Housing could possibly be involved in a project like
this to add to the wonderful community center they
have already given us!
Answer: A project to construct dog parks at both
Port Hueneme and Point Mugu is currently being
developed.
With the input of the NBVC veterinarian, the Pub-
lic Works Department is in the process of designing
each park to be both people- and dog-friendly.
The Point Mugu park will be at the south loop of
Terrier Drive near Main Road, and the Port Huen-
eme park will be at the existing Kiddie Park at corner
of Goodspeed Street and Bard Lane.
The parks will be approximately 1.5 acres each
and will consist of a fully fenced area with limited
seating, sanitary waste mitts and collection points
and a simple wash-down system.
Construction is expected to start in October and
be complete in December. w

Come on. Do you really need 10 cans
of tuna in your pantry?
Grab a couple of those cans, and the
next time youre in the commissary, buy
an extra jar of peanut butter and drop
them all in one of the bright yellow col-
lection bins at Naval Base Ventura Coun-
ty (NBVC) marked Feds Feed Families.
It will be your way of helping in a mas-
sive nationwide food campaign whose goal
is to collect 2 million pounds of non-per-
ishable food nationwide for food banks
across the country. This is the first time
the Department of Defense is taking part
in Feds Feed Families.
The bright yellow collection barrels,
which belong to Food Share, Ventura
Countys food bank, are at eight locations
at NBVC Point Mugu and at 19 locations
at NBVC Port Hueneme. Most wanted
items include peanut butter; canned goods
such as beans, vegetables, fruit, tuna,
chicken and soup; rice and other grains;
dry beans; snacks such as crackers, pret-
zels, granola bars, trail mix and dried fruit;
and cereal.
All food donated at NBVC will be dis-
tributed to Food Share.
At NBVC Point Mugu, barrels are lo-
cated at Fleet Readiness Center, Bldg. 311;
Air Operations, Ground Electronics Main-
tenance Command, Hangar 355; NBVC
Headquarters, Bldg. 1; the Navy Ex-
change; Hawkeye Country,Carrier Air-
borne Command and Control Squadron,
Hangar 553; Point Mugu Medical Clinic;

the barrels anytime through Sept. 9.
Feds Feed Families is an Office of Per-
sonnel Management initiative which has
requested DoD support during its third
annual campaign due to the impact of a
series of natural disasters that have de-
pleted charitable resources because of
increased demand.

From pantry to barrel: Food drive needs help
By Andrea Howry
Lighthouse editor
Chief Equipment Operator (SCW/PJ)
Joshua Petraitis sounded calmas he made
the call from the Naval Construction
Training Center (NCTC).
No, the building is not on fire,he told
the emergency dispatcher. But I think
people may be trapped. It looks like there
is excessive flooding theres water every-
where and the roof collapsed under pres-
sure.
It was the beginning of another exercise
during the two-day Citadel Rumble, which
took place at Naval Base Ventura County
and throughout the North and Southwest
Regions on Monday and Tuesday, July 18
and 19.
The annual drill gives first responders
and other personnel on base and through-
out the region practice on how to react
during a natural disaster. The scenario in
past years has involved earthquakes
hence the name Citadel Rumble but
this years involved a major storm that
damaged buildings and caused flooding
and landslides.
In addition to the collapsed roof at
NCTC, supposed damage included a bar-
racks fire at San Nicolas Island that
killed three, a collapsed roof at the
Mugu barracks, another collapsed roof
at the Child Development Center at Port
Hueneme that forced the evacuation of a
preschool classroom, and flooding of a
server roomthat temporarily knocked out
the base computer system.
Robert Huether, installation training
officer and lead coordinator of the event,
said about 200 people took part.
Its gone really well, he said as the
second day wrapped up. Its good for first
responders to be able to practice large
events like this.
As he spoke, several firefighters from
Naval Base Ventura County Federal Fire
were tending to the wounded stretched
out on color-coded tarps that made up a
triage unit outside the NCTC. The red tarp
was for those needing immediate attention,
yellow was for those for whom treatment
could wait, green was for those with minor
injuries and black was for the deceased.
The firefighters, some carrying thermal
imagers so they could locate people in
smoke- and debris-filled rooms, had
searched the NCTCand taken out the five
victims,placing themon the appropriate
tarps. For purposes of the exercise, each
victimwore a card around the neck stat-
ing the type of injury he or she had sup-
posedly sustained.
An impaled object in the chest? one
firefighter read aloud. That wouldnt be
a minor injury, and off to the red tarp
the Seabee went.
Brad Jones, training chief for Fed Fire,
called the exercise practical and neces-
sary.
This is an excellent exercise in that it
gives us training for something that could
really happen,he said. Its beneficial for
all base personnel.

What do you do to curb the summer
doldrums? I polled my friends with kids
and did I get great ideas!
Alicia planned a summer kids program
for the children of her command, utilizing
the resources right on base. She arranged
for tours of the firehouse, the kennel and
working dogs, the commissary, the library
and even a tour of the bowling alley and
movie theater. To top off the summer she
arranged for a special matinee movie at
the CYP, complete with popcorn.
Kaua launched a character summer
with her neighbor. Together they launched
weekly scavenger hunts that required the
children to explore various aspects of
character, such as perseverance through
challenging activities or helping others
complete the hunt.
Sylvia established goals for each of her
three children with milestones along the
way to celebrate. Candi is learning to
swim, Josiah is learning about business by
launching a lawn mowing service in his
neighborhood and Molly is learning to
ride a two-wheel bike. And all three are
learning to bake their favorite cookie.
Phoebe wanted to lose weight this sum-
mer and felt she wanted to keep the kids
away from the television and computer.
She launched what she is calling her Sum-
mer Olympics. Every two weeks she and
the children add a new physical activity
or skill. They have learned geo-caching
(their favorite) and are building their bike
riding endurance on the paths near their
house with a goal of a family four-mile
bike ride. They start each day walking
their dog and increasing their route. Phoe-
be is down 11 pounds so far but says,
Growing closer as a family is the real
bonus.
Danielle and her children have taken up
agility training with their dogs. They went
to the library to research agility competi-
tion and training, then joined a local club
to learn more. So far they have built four
agility stations together and have success-
fully trained their Labrador and Scottie
in three of the four. Their goal is to enter
their dogs in their first competition this
fall.
Debra and her Marine put their teens
in charge of their monthly staycation
plans. They were given a budget to work
with and the task of researching attrac-
tions in the area, mapping the route, plan-
ning the event and managing the budget
for the monthly event. They had to learn
to work together, compromise, rely on
each others strengths and develop new
skills. Each event is more successful than
the previous, and, Debra said, the teens
are actually enjoying working and being
together.
With a little creativity and enlisting your
children in the process, the summer dol-
drums can become the best summer spent
together ever.

By all accounts, it was indeed a great
Seabee day.
About 300 community leaders, Naval
Base Ventura County personnel and cur-
rent and retired Seabees attended the
Friday, July 22, ribbon-cutting of the
new U.S. Navy Seabee Museum just out-
side the gates of NBVC Port Huen-
eme.
It was a long and arduous road, but
we did it! said Museum Director Lara
Godbille, who, since October, has been
overseeing the cataloging and moving
of 12,000 artifacts and 9,000 linear feet
of documents more than 350 pallets
of material from two postwar Quon-
set huts to the new 38,000-square foot,
state-of-the-art building.
Community and Navy leaders agreed
the museum will be a big draw to the
area.
Capt. Jim McHugh, commanding of-
ficer of the base, said tourists will want
to visit, families will want to share their
Navy heritage with their children and
grandchildren, and local residents will
want to learn about an integral part of
the local community.
People can come here and learn about
the immense impact Seabees have had
here in Ventura County, he said. Over
the past 60 years, Seabees have raised
families here, served their community
and helped make this the best place to
live.
NBVC and the city of Port Hueneme
were praised for their cooperative efforts
to move the museum outside the gates
so visitors dont have to get a special
pass for base access.
Making it easily accessible to the
community was important, said Rear
Adm. Christopher Mossey, commander
of the Naval Facilities Engineering Com-
mand and Chief of Civil Engineers, who
called the building spectacular.
The best part about it is that it can
be expanded, he added. After all, Sea-
bees are making history every day.
The museum is the second-oldest of
the Navys 11 museums.
It is simply superb, retired Rear
Adm. Jay DeLoach, director of the Na-
300 attend opening of Seabee Museums new quarters

val History and Heritage Command,
said of the new building, and it has that
new-car smell.
Retired Rear Adm. Ben Montoya,
chairman of the Seabee Historical Foun-
dation, reminded the crowd that the
museum is a work in progress. While the
building is complete, only half of the
display space has been filled.
This is a glimpse of what the future
will hold, he said. We are continuing
to raise funds to complete a quality mu-
seum.
After the ribbon-cutting, visitors
walked in to find dozens of displays de-
picting Seabee life from World War II
onward. Media stations were set up in
several locations, showing some of the
2,300 reels of 16mm film from the mu-
seums archives.
This is spectacular, said Port Hue-
neme Mayor Sylvia Munoz Schnopp as
she walked through one of the galleries.
It gives a true sense of the history of
the Seabees and their importance in the
U.S. military. Its an honor to have it
here in Port Hueneme.
Chief Steelworker Louie Alvarez and
Chief Utilitiesman Mark Klusken, both
of Naval Mobile Construction Battalion
40, said their favorite part of the mu-
seum was a small corner across from the
main exhibits where two kiosks showed
short documentaries about World War
II- and Vietnam-era Seabees.
Those old-timers telling stories and
talking about events, that was something
else, Alvarez said.
Mary Anne Rooney, a commissioner
for the Oxnard Harbor District, which
oversees the Port of Hueneme, said the
museum brought out her patriotism.
I come here and I realize how proud
I am to be an American, she said.
The museum is open from 9 a.m. to 4
p.m. Monday through Saturday and
from noon to 4 p.m. Sunday. Admission
is free.

Cmdr. Scott P. Raymond relieved
Cmdr. Patrick A. Garin on July 8 as the
commanding officer of Naval Mobile
Construction Battalion (NMCB) 3 dur-
ing a ceremony at the Naval Base Ven-
tura County, Port Hueneme, ceremo-
nial grinder.
I cannot begin to express my grati-
tude for your hard work, Garin told
the Sailors of NMCB 3 during the cer-
emony. Your professionalism, dedica-
tion and skill cannot be overstated.
Garin, a native of Albuquerque,
N.M., had served as NMCB 3s com-
manding officer since 2009. Previously,
he served at Navy Personnel Command,
Millington, Tenn.
It has truly been an inspiration for
me to work with each and every one of
you, said Garin.
Raymond comes to the battalion from
Bethesda, Md., where he served as the
Public Works resident officer in charge
of construction. He led the construc-
tion program to establish the new Wal-
ter Reed National Military Medical
Center. Raymond previously served as
the operations officer of the 30th Naval
Construction Regiment in Port Huen-
eme.
I am honored to be taking command
of such an outstanding organization,
Raymond said during the ceremony.
Raymond graduated from Rensselaer
Polytechnic Institute with a bachelor
of science degree in computer and sys-
tems engineering, and he completed
Civil Engineer Corps Officer School in
1994. Raymond also holds a masters
degree in information technology man-
agement from the Navy Postgraduate
School.
I offer my solemn commitment to
be fiercely loyal to you in everything
we do, and all my energy to do right in
spite of barriers and obstacles, Ray-
mond told the Sailors of NMCB 3.
Raymonds awards include the Meri-
torious Service Medal, Navy Commen-
dation Medal and Navy Achievement
Medal. He is Seabee Combat Warfare
Officer qualified, a member of the De-
fense Acquisition Corps and is a regis-
tered Professional Engineer in the state
of Oregon.
NMCB 3 is homeported in Port Hue-
neme and is preparing for a spring de-
ployment to Europe and Africa.

The chiefs and officers of Naval Mobile Construc-
tion Battalion (NMCB) 40, along with the battalions
squad leaders, recently completed their respective an-
nual Field Training Exercises.
The two-week courses, instructed by the 31st Sea-
bee Readiness Group, were divided into one week of
classroom instruction onboard Naval Base Ventura
County, Port Hueneme, followed by a one-week prac-
tical application at Camp Pendleton Marine Corps
Base for the chiefs and officers and Camp Roberts
for the squad leaders.
The classroom portion for the chiefs and officers
focused on big picture topics, including convoy op-
erations and defensive tactics, while the squad leaders
engaged in smaller unit topics such as fighting posi-
tions, the placement of crew-served weapons and
concertina wire placement.
There were many opportunities for members to be
up front and brief the entire class on the given mis-
sion. Many of the learning objectives forced the mem-
bers to work in teams to accomplish the desired out-
come.
Following the conclusion of the classroomportion,
the chiefs and officers left for Camp Pendleton. The
week began with a barbecue and friendly softball
game before the topics discussed the previous week
could be put to use in a field setting.
Land navigation at the Marine Corps School of
Infantry led off the exercise, followed by defensive
tactics, Forward Operating Base security, tactical
convoy simulator and numerous scenarios at the Com-
bat Operations Training Center.
Along with the individual skills obtained by each
member, many of the situations and scenarios focused
on the leaderships ability to receive a mission from
a higher command and deliver the mission at the bat-
talion level. Communication skills and planning were
the emphasis of much of the training. The week
ended with a dining-in at the Camp Pendleton Golf
Course before a return to Port Hueneme.
More than 60 squad leaders concluded their week
of classroominstruction and traveled north to Camp
Roberts for a week of practical training in the field.
The topics discussed the week prior were put to use
as the members dug fighting positions, placed more
than 600 meters of concertina wire and worked on
the strategic placement of their crew-served weapons.
A highlight of the week was their opportunity to
detonate M18A1 Claymore mines and throw M67
hand grenades.
The energy and endurance combined with the
training tempo and squad motivation made this an
enjoyable learning experience that I wont forget,
said Culinary Specialist 2nd Class Antoine Jones.
The learning and experience gained by the leader-
ship of NMCB40 will prove valuable as the battalion
continues through its fast-paced homeport training
schedule in preparation for its upcoming Pacific Com-
mand deployment.

Seabees from Naval Mobile Construction Battalion
(NMCB) 40 recently conducted a training exercise to create
a water well at Fort Hunter Liggett.
The 21 Seabees from NMCB 40 drilled more than 600 feet
into the Earths crust before they began pumping water. The
Seabees completed their training on June 3.
Equipment Operator Constructionman Crystal Morris was
among the team.
Water well teamtraining was a great experience,she said.
I learned a great deal about the entire operation, from trip-
ping-in to tripping-out with drill steel to doing a thousand
mud tests to ensure proper viscosity and sand content. It
wasnt bad. We got dirty and it was fun!
The group was divided into two teams working 12-hour
shifts to ensure round-the-clock operations as the well was
being developed. Upon completion of the well, the crewaban-
doned it and its operation in accordance with Monterey
Countys guidelines.
The water well team training provided by the 31st Seabee
Readiness Groups Contingency Construction CrewTraining
(R73) is a requirement the battalion must obtain every home-
port.
When Seabees deploy to the Pacific Theatre of Operation,
water wells are an essential part of the humanitarian efforts
we do to foster goodwill, said Construction Mechanic 1st
Class Andrew Duchscher, assistant officer in charge of water
wells for the 2011 drilling team. Being able to do this for
people who dont have fresh water is a great thing. The peo-
ple from those countries really appreciate it.
Before going to Fort Hunter Liggett, Seabees who are con-
sidered drillers attend a C school in China Lake, where
they become certified through the Navys Enlisted Classifica-
tion system (NEC 5707). These drillers learn the in-depth
necessities of water well drilling.
Four of the 21 personnel who attended the training are
certified 5707 drillers, said Duchscher. So now it is our job
to ensure our knowledge gets down to the junior Seabees we
bring with us on deployments and ensure they understand
the basics well enough to perform as solid crew members.

VAW-117 public affairs officer
Cmdr. Fred C. Goldhammer
relieved Cmdr. Brent A. Trickel
as commanding officer, Carrier
Airborne Early Warning Squad-
ron 117 (VAW-117) during a
change of command ceremony
held aboard Naval Base Ventura
County, Point Mugu, on July
14.
Capt. Gregory N. Harris, com-
mander, Carrier Air Wing 11,
served as the guest speaker.
Since taking command in May
2010, Trickel oversaw the squad-
ron flying more than 850 hours
and 430 sorties. The squadron
completed several notable accom-
plishments, including transferring
multiple aircraft in and out of the
squadron and across the country
for various aircraft upgrade pro-
grams, completing a major in-
spection and providing the first
ever E-2Csupport to the U.S. Air
Force Weapons School Mission
Execution Phase.
Its a sad day for me, as I am
leaving the best job in the Navy,
Trickel said. Im leaving behind
140 people who were a pleasure
to lead and work with every day.
I feel that the squadron is mark-
edly better now than it was when
I arrived, and I would love to stay
and see us through work-ups
again. However, I am looking
forward to my next job. During
my last tour at the Naval Strike
and Air Warfare Center, I
dreamed about returning there to
be in charge of the Weapons
School. The fact that I get to take
over a job I have always wanted
is exciting.
Goldhammer, formerly the
squadrons executive officer, de-
scribed howlucky he was to serve
under Trickel and that they saw
eye-to-eye on virtually every is-
sue. Thanks to that, the squad-
ron shouldnt expect any drastic
changes once he takes the reins,
but rather a shift in focus to the
next challenge facing the Wall-
banger team: deployment.
The Wallbanger mission is to
get ourselves, the CVW-11
Barbwire Team and the Nimitz
Strike Group ready for combat
deployment in 2012, Goldham-
mer said.
The change of command cer-
emony gives us a chance to rem-
inisce about and express our
gratitude to Cmdr. Trickel for his
leadership and contributions dur-
ing his tenure as our commanding
officer, he added. In the bigger
scheme of things, the change of
command isnt really about any
single person, but rather about
us, the Wallbanger team, as we
reflect upon where weve been,
where we stand today and where
were headed.
Commenting on being selected
as the squadrons 30th command-
ing officer, Goldhammer stated,
Taking command of a sea-going
operational squadron is the cul-
mination of a 22-year long jour-
ney that started when I first swore
in as a Naval Academy midship-
man. Its hard to imagine how I
could ever top the experience of
leading the most talented group
of officers, chiefs and Sailors Ive
ever had the privilege of serving
with through the rigors of pre-
deployment training. All this be-
ing said, I want to come back to
the same point: The change of
command isnt about me; rather,
its about marking the teams
progress towards our next mile-
stone, specifically our prepara-
tions for next years deploy-
ment.

NSWC Port Hueneme Command
Communications
Working for the Navy is a very
rewarding career, whether it be
as an engineer working with mis-
siles, or physically joining the
naval fleet to support our coun-
try.
On June 14, visiting youth from
Los Angeles Eagle Empower-
ment program were provided
these words of encouragement
fromNaval Surface Warfare Cen-
ter (NSWC) Port Huenemes
technical director, Timothy Tro-
ske.
The students, who ranged in
age from 10 to 17, spent the day
touring the command, learning
about the various engineering
roles that comprise PHD.
It was our intent to expose
them to a career option that they
may never have thought of before
by seeing what the Navy and civil-
ians do at NSWC, said Yolanda
Carroll, chief operations officer
for Eagle Empowerment.
Eagle Empowerment is a non-
profit organization that provides
Los Angeles youth and adults
educational and training experi-
ences that are motivational, in-
spirational and designed to cul-
tivate leadership skills.
Students toured NSWC Port
Huenemes Surface Warfare En-
gineering Facility (SWEF), where
ships combat weapons systems
are tested and evaluated in a con-
trolled laboratory environment.
One of the main systems remote-
ly controlled by SWEF is the
Navys Self Defense Test Ship,
which students boarded during
their visit.
The students also met with
NSWC Port Huenemes com-
manding officer, Capt. William
DeBow, who briefed themon the
commands role within the
Navy.
At NSWCPort Hueneme, our
workforce is comprised of people
with different backgrounds, cul-
tures and educations who work
as scientists, engineers, analysts,
computer specialists, technicians
and administrative personnel,he
said. We are all working togeth-
er to support the men and wom-
en who fight for our country and
freedom.

NSWC Port Hueneme
Personnel from Naval Surface
Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Di-
vision, played a significant role in
the Royal Australian Navy (RAN)
FFG 7 class ship Standard Missile-
2 (SM-2) firing event held last
month.
The June 13-20 event was the cul-
mination of a four-year effort.
Conducted aboard the HMAS
Sydney (FFG 03) near the Pacific
Missile Range Facility Barking
Sands, the event served as a com-
bined development and operational
test of the ability to deploy the SM-
2 in mid-course guidance mode.
While in this mode, the SM-2 is in-
structed to only track the target
several seconds before the intercept,
allowing the missile to fly silently.
Personnel from Port Hueneme
were responsible for the design, de-
velopment, integration and test of
the software upgrade to the weapons
control processor of the Mk 92 Fire
Control System, which is a key ele-
ment in the systemthat provides the
new capability to launch SM-2 mis-
siles from the Mk 13 launcher.
The main objective of the firing
event was to verify that the FFG
could engage targets with an SM-2
operating in mid-course guidance
mode,said Paul DelPopolo, NSWC
Port Hueneme software develop-
ment project lead. It is very satisfy-
ing to see all the hard work the team
has put into the project over the last
few years, come together so nicely
in achieving the objective.
The primary benefit of mid-course
guidance mode is that it allows the
SM-2 to fly silently without having
to provide constant illumination
during its trajectory to the point of
intercept. This provides the missile
a better chance to fly undetected.
In addition, this mode also allows
for the engagement of threats at
much farther ranges than prior to
the upgrade.
A team effort, the successful fir-
ing event included NSWC Port
Hueneme, NSWC Indian Head,
Johns Hopkins University Applied
Physics Laboratory, BAE Systems
Technology Solutions and Services
and the Royal Australian Navy.
NSWCPort Hueneme has worked
closely with the Royal Australian
Navy to deliver a combat-ready
missile and associated combat sys-
tem upgrades, aiding the allied ef-
fort to protect national interests at
home and abroad.
This test event served as a way
for NSWCPort Hueneme personnel
to assist a U.S. ally in meeting fu-
ture operational requirements, while
aligning with the Chief of Naval
Operations maritime strategy to
foster and sustain cooperative rela-
tionships with international part-
ners.

By Mark Storer
Reprinted from the Ventura County Star
Scott and Jenelle Hatzung say theyve al-
ways believed in giving back to the com-
munity that nurtured them. They also say,
nearly in unison, that theyve had a good
year.
Scott, 27, recently finished his bachelors
degree in organizational management from
the University of La Verne and was pro-
moted by the Navy to aviation support
equipment technician 1st class. He then re-
ceivedanawardfromtheOceanViewSchool
District for volunteer work in reading that
he and his command did at Laguna Vista
School near Naval Base Ventura County
(NBVC).
Earlier this month, Scott and Jenelle, 28,
learned they had been named Navy Family
of the Year by the National Military Fam-
ily Association in Washington, D.C.
The Hatzungs married in April 2009 and
live at NBVC, Point Mugu.
Theyre a very inspiring couple, said
NBVC School Liaison Officer Monica
James, who nominated the Hatzungs. For
a young Sailor who doesnt have kids to set
upareadingprogramlike that says somuch.
Not only didthey volunteer todoa reading
program, but Scott helped raise $1,800 for
supplies for the school library.
Jenelle really stepped up as a volunteer.
When the two of themsee a need, they find
solutions and fill it.
Scott said Laguna Vista has a large num-
ber of children who live on base and they
recognize him when they see him.
Its kind of nice to have that connection
with them,he said.
I just felt like the spouses have the tough-
est time on base, said his wife. I mean, I
was here six months before I even knew
about the ThousandOaks mall. I wantedto
reach out to the Navy spouses and just let
them know there are resources for them.
When preparing to nominate the Hat-
zungs, James turned to Jenelles parents,
CommandMaster Chief KennethClements
and his wife, Colleen.
I got to know them during my research
and thought I had to nominate them, too,
James said.
Clements is command master chief for
the Navy Recruiting District in Minneapo-
lis.
By the time she was in 12th grade, shed
gone to 13 schools, Clements said of his
daughter in a phone interview. It was part
of Navy life, andshe never complained. Im
soproudof themboth. Scott is a great man,
a great Sailor.
It was such a surprise, Jenelle said of
the award. But I sawmy parents being ac-
tively involved with kids and volunteering
and how much theyve done.
Her husband agreed.
Theyre an inspiration to us,he said.
The couple say they plantostart a family
soon. While Scott just finished college and
has hopes of becoming a Navy officer, Jen-
elle has a bachelors degree in political sci-
ence from UC Riverside.
The National Military Families Associa-
tionhonors afamilyeachyear ineachbranch
of the service. The awardrecognizes strong
military families who embrace their service
to the nation, are role models in their com-
munity, and understand that together they
are stronger, the associations website
states.
The couple traveledtoWashington, D.C.,
for anawards ceremony July 21, where they
were in the running for Military Family of
the Year. But that night the honor went to
a family from the Air Force and one from
the Army.
Thats icing on the cake,Jenelle said of
being consideredfor Military Family of the
Year. Were just blessed and honored to be
where we are.

edition of the Ventura County Star.)

A delegation from the Republic of Ta-
jikistan in Eastern Europe recently at-
tended a seminar hosted by the Naval
Postgraduate Schools Center for Asym-
metic Warfare (CAW) to learn the best
techniques law enforcement and civilian
agencies have developed to work together
during emergencies.
Representatives fromthe Port Hueneme
Police Department, Port Hueneme City
Hall and the Oxnard Harbor District also
attended the June 28 seminar, which in-
cluded a tour of the Port of Hueneme,
unique in its dual use by military and civil-
ian personnel.
The tour was conducted aboard CAWs
85-foot fast patrol craft, CAW-1, which
also took the participants along the Ven-
tura County coastline and to several off-
shore oil and gas platforms.
Discussion focused on how local, state,
federal, private and volunteer organiza-
tions can best work together to coordinate
a fast and effective response to an emer-
gency or disaster, thereby limiting injuries,
damage to property and loss of life.
CAW demonstrated how those groups
use the National Incident Management
System to coordinate emergency re-
sponse.
In-depth discussions followed on the
benefits of having first responders use
the same terminologies and equipment.
CAW also explained the different levels
of emergency activation commands, from
Incident Command Systems at city and
local levels to Emergency Operations
Centers at county, state and federal lev-
els.
Noting that significant steps need to
be taken to put what they learned into
practice, Tajikistan representatives said
they gained valuable insight into the ad-
vantages of having responding organiza-
tions integrate operations during a cri-
sis.
They said the lessons learned and best
practices collected by U.S. agencies
through the years will be of great value
and will contribute significantly to the
safety and security of Tajikstan.
CAW, located at Naval Base Ventura
County, Point Mugu, is a satellite re-
search center of the Naval Postgraduate
School. Its mission is to facilitate the im-
provement of preparedness and capa-
bilities of military and civil authorities
at all levels to prevent, defend against,
and mitigate the effects of asymmetric
threats to national, homeland, and glob-
al security, including terrorism and natu-
ral or man-made disasters.

The biggest wave isnt always the best.
That and other surfing fundamentals
were key elements of a three-day surfing
clinic offered through the Naval Base Ven-
tura County youth sports program.
A second clinic will be held Aug. 15, 17
and 19, from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. each day.
Cost is $60 per child.
The first clinic drew 10 children. The
youngest was 9 years old; the oldest was
14.
The hardest part is knowing when to
catch the wave so it doesnt take you
down, said Morgan Glover, 13, the
daughter of Karrie and Lt. Eric Glover
of the Fleet Readiness Center.
Her 10-year-old sister, Madison, said
that for her, standing up was the hardest
part.
Trying to stand and not have the nose
of the board go into the sand is tough,
she said.
Brett Lane, NBVCs youth sports coor-
dinator, said ocean safety is the clinics top
priority.
The kids have to learn about different
currents, different waves and what they
can do and the dangers they pose,he said.
We also teach them about ocean life and
taking care of the ocean.
Lane uses the buddy system; an adult
lifeguard accompanies each child into the
water.
We start on land, he explained. We
practice going from being prone on the
surfboard to standing its called up-
downs.
Once the children feel comfortable with
that, they head out to the waves.
We stress that it takes awhile, Lane
said. We dont want them to be discour-
aged, but they have to learn how to read
a wave and know which one will be the
best ride. It takes practice, but I knowthat
once that get that first ride, theyll never
stop.
Starting a surf clinic was one of Lanes
top priorities when he became the youth
sports director late last year.
This beach has one of the best breaks
in the United States, he said. What bet-
ter place to learn?
For more information or to register for
the upcoming clinic, call 982-5460.
NBVC offers first surf clinic

Night. About 1,500 people took advantage of the
light crowds to enjoy the carnival rides and other
activities.
Friday alsomarkedthe ribbon-cuttingfor the new
Seabee Museum. For details on that event, see Pag-
es 7 and 8.
The big day came Saturday and began with Pass
in Review, a military parade involving hundreds of
Seabees fromNaval Mobile ConstructionBattalions
(NMCBs) 3, 5and40, the Naval ConstructionTrain-
ing Center and the 31st Seabee Readiness Group,
all of which are homeported at NBVC Port Huen-
eme. NMCB 4 is currently deployed to Afghani-
stan.
Capt. Jim McHugh, commanding officer of
NBVC, welcomed the crowd and talked about the
Seabees accomplishments both locally and world-
wide.
He was followed by Capt. John Korka, commo-
dore of the 31st Seabee Readiness Group, whoyelled
Hoo-rah! to the Seabees and got one in return.
You look sharp and sound ready, he told
them.
To the audience, he pointed out that the men and
womeninuniformbehindhimwere their neighbors
and friends who deserved a big thank-you.
These Sailors have answered the 9-1-1 call every
time the world has gotten one, and there have been
plenty of calls, he said.
The audience responded with loud applause.
Guest of honor for the parade was Rear Adm.
Christopher J. Mossey, commander of the Naval
Facilities Engineering Command and Chief of
Civil Engineers.
It was Mossey who pinned the Purple Heart on
UT1 Trent Westlake of Camarillo.
Westlake was escorting Afghani local national
contractors throughanEntryControl Point holding
tent at Forward Operating Base Wilson in the Kan-
dahar Province on Dec. 2, 2010, when enemy insur-
gents fired two 85mm rockets. One landed in the
tent and exploded, injuring 11 people, including
Westlake.
Despite being stunnedfromthe explosion, Petty
Officer Westlake remainedcalmandprovidedcom-
bat casualty care, Mossey said.
Westlake helpedpull out twoinjuredcivilians and
applied a tourniquet to a third persons bleeding leg
before shipmates noticed Westlake himself was in-
jured. He ended up being medically evacuated for
treatment for shrapnel injuries to his left arm and
right leg.
Westlake received a standing ovation.
Opening ceremonies ended with a loud Seabee
Days tradition: a flyover by an E-2CHawkeye and
six armored vehicles from NMCB 3s Convoy Se-
curity Element circling the parade grounds, some
of themfiring blank rounds fromthe mounted ma-
chine guns.
After that, the crowd splintered off to dozens of
activities: touring a mock Seabee camp, watching a
boxing exhibition, gazing at more than100 lustrous
autos on display at the car show, braving the carni-
val rides, cheering on one of 10 teams in a softball
tournament that would last 12 hours.
Buses shuttledpeople tothe Seabee Museum, and
about 2,300 people visited over the two days, Mu-
seum Director Lara Godbille said.

NBVC SEABEE DAYS 2011
The boxing exhibition, which featured
nine bouts involving Navy and local fight-
ers, drew about 750 people, according to
Dan Alpern, the marketing director of
Morale, Welfare and Recreation, which
organized Seabee Days with Naval Base
Ventura County and the 31st Seabee
Readiness Group (31st SRG).
Overall, he said, Seabee Days ran
smoothly and was well-received.
We got a lot of positive feedback, he
said. People liked the variety and qual-
ity of rides in the carnival. The bus service
to and from the parking lot, which was
something new this year, was a big hit.
Logistics Specialist 2nd Class Christo-
pher Klock of the 31st SRG spent Satur-
day in the mockup Seabee camp, answer-
ing a ton of questions.
Everyone wants to know about the
gear, he said, pointing to about 40 items
laid out inside a tent that make up the
60- to 70-pound pack a Seabee normally
wears in a war zone. A lot of kids have
been asking questions, and so have a lot
of retirees. They want to know how this
compares to back in the day.
Sundays events included a karaoke con-
test and a motorcycle fun run and show.
For results of all the Seabee Days com-
petitions softball, boxing, karaoke, car
show and motorcycle show see www.
thelighthousenews.com.
Little kids climbing on big things was a
common occurrence at Seabee Days, where
front loaders and dump trucks were just a
few of the massive pieces of equipment on
display. Here, Chief Builder David Zahm of
Naval Mobile Construction Battalion 3 helps
his son, Paul, 2, back onto solid ground.
