High Year Tenure
policy updated
By MC2 Andrea Perez
Navy Personnel Command
Public Affairs
MILLINGTON, Tenn.
- As a reminder of the
implementation date of
July 1, a summary of pol-
icy changes to the Navys
High Year Tenure (HYT)
program were reiterated
in NAVADMIN 198/12,
released June 28.
The new HYT pol-
icy is outlined in
MILPERSMAN 1160-120
and took effect July
1, 2012. It applies to
all active-duty, Full-
Time Support (FTS)
and Selected Reserve
(SELRES) Sailors.
HYT sets the maxi-
mum number of years
an enlisted Sailor may
serve based on rank
before he or she must
advance, separate or if
eligible, retire.
NAVADMIN 198/12
highlights other impor-
tant changes under the
new policy, including a
reduction in HYT lim-
its for active-duty and
FTS Sailors in paygrades
E-1 to E-3; elimination
of passed not advanced
(PNA) for E-3 Sailors
to stay on active duty
for eight years; a clause
allowing approved HYT
waivers to be cancelled
when not fulfilled as
approved; and clarifica-
tion of reduction-in-rate
procedures.
The new HYT limit for
E-1 and E-2 active-duty
and FTS Sailors is four
years, and the new HYT
limit for E-3 active-duty
and FTS Sailors is five
years.
E-1, E-2 and E-3
active-duty and FTS
Sailors who are already
past the modified HYT
limit as of July 1 will
be separated by March
31, 2013 unless they
receive a HYT waiver
or are advanced to a
paygrade with a higher
HYT limit.
Starting with this
Marchs Navy Wide
Advancement Exam, E-3
Sailors who passed, but
did not advance, may
not continue service
beyond the revised HYT
limit for their paygrade.
Al s o unde r
NAVADMIN 198/12, pre-
viously approved HYT
waiver requests can be
cancelled when not ful-
filled by the Sailor. If

WASHINGTON - The
Chief of Naval Operations
(CNO), Jonathan Greenert,
announced his selection of
FLTCM (AW/NAC) Michael
D. Stevens as the 13th
Master Chief Petty Officer
of the Navy (MCPON) at a
Pentagon press conference,
June 27.
I was extremely proud to
have such a highly and fully
qualified group of candi-
dates, said Greenert. After
a thorough and deliberate
process I selected FLTCM
Stevens to be our Navys
senior enlisted leader and
my advisor for dealing in
matters with enlisted person-
nel and their families.
Im honored to have
been selected as the 13th
Master Chief Petty Officer
of the Navy, said Stevens.
MCPON Rick West has cer-
tainly made a lasting and
positive impact on our Navy.
I look forward to continuing
to provide the leadership and
commitment that our Navy
and our Sailors both deserve
and expect.
Stevens has served as the
fleet master chief at U.S. Fleet
Forces Command in Norfolk,
Va. since August 2010. His
prior command master chief
tours include U.S. 2nd Fleet,
Helicopter Sea Combat Wing
Atlantic, Helicopter Mine
Countermeasures Squadron
14, and Naval Air Station
Pensacola. A native of
Montana, Stevens joined the
Navy in 1983. He will relieve
MCPON (SS/SW) Rick D.
West during a ceremony
Sept. 28 at the Washington
Navy Yard.
Throughout my career,
and every Sailors career,
weve had chief petty officers
take care of and shape us,
said Greenert. Master Chief
Stevens has the leadership
and experience to keep us on
course and on speed. I look
forward to working closely
with him.
Greenert also praised
West who took the helm in
December 2008, citing his
outstanding leadership and
lifetime of dedicated service.
Im proud of MCPON
West and what he has accom-
plished during his watch.
His extraordinary leadership
and terrific connection to the
fleet has contributed greatly
to our warfighting readiness
and the readiness of our
families, said Greenert. His
example has been a daily
reminder to Sailors to live
our ethos and to remember
the important role families
play in our successes.
The Master Chief Petty
Officer of the Navy serves
as an advisor to the Chief
of Naval Operations and to
the Chief of Naval Personnel
in matters of importance to
enlisted personnel and their
families. The MCPON is also
an advisor to the many boards
focused on enlisted personnel
issues; is the enlisted repre-
sentative of the Department
of the Navy at special events;
may be called upon to testify
on enlisted personnel issues
before Congress; and, main-
tains a liaison with enlisted
spouse organizations.
CNO Announces new MCPON
FLTCM (AW/NAC) Michael D.
Stevens will be the next MCPON.

Required sexual assault pre-
vention and response (SAPR)
training training for com-
mand leadership triads will
be held at Naval Submarine
Base New Londons Dealey
Center Theater on five dates
beginning July 18.
The required training is an
element of increased Navy
efforts to reduce and elimi-
nate this crime within the
service.
In fiscal year 2011, some
582 reports of Navy sexual
assault were made affecting
personnel across all ranks.
To help address and impact
this serious issue, the Deputy
Chief of Naval Operations
(DCNO) for Manpower,
Personnel, Training and
Education is leading a task
force to reduce sexual assault
and promote a culture of
respect and professionalism
in our Force, where each sail-
or is motivated to intervene
and stop these crimes.
An all hands effort is
required and the DCNO has
developed sexual assault pre-
vention and response training
for leadership and the fleet to
be delivered to all active and
reserve personnel.
SAPR Leadership Training
(SAPR-L) has been developed
for E7 and above.
Qualified Master Mobile
Training Teams (MMTT)
will deploy globally to pro-
vide SAPR-L training to
command leadership triads
(Commanding Officer/Officer
in Charge, Executive Officer/
Assistant Officer in Charge,
and Command Master Chief/
Chief of the Boat/Senior
Enlisted Advisor) in fleet con-
centration areas and locations
with significant Navy pres-
ence.
Command leadership tri-
ads will then deliver SAPR-L
Training to their command
leadership (E7 and above)
using training products pro-
vided during MMTT instruc-
tion.
SAPR-L MMTT Training
will provide command lead-
ership triads the tools to suc-
cessfully facilitate
SAPR-L Training through
interactive video and facili-
tated Face-to-Face (F2F) dis-
cussion.
Required sexual assault pre-
vention and response training
for command leadership tri-
ads will be held at SUBASEs
Dealey Center Theater.
Command leadership tri-
ads (CO/XO/CMC) must reg-
ister for the SAPR-L training
at the following Web site,
https://esams.cnic.navy.mil/
esams_gen_2/loginesams.
aspx. Class size is limited
to 50.
If members of the com-
mand leadership triad
are on temporary duty at
other commands or instal-
lations, they may take
the training, if available,
wherever they are at that
time.
Commands with
questions or concerns
about this training and

USS Montpelier Chief reenlists on the steps of Vermonts capitol
By MC1(EXW/SW) Jason J.
Perry
Commander, Submarine Group
Two Public Affairs
MONTPELIER, Vt.
- A chief petty offi-
cer assigned to USS
Montpelier (SSN 765)
reenlisted in the sub-
marines namesake city,
prior to the capitol citys
Independence Day cel-
ebration in Montpelier,
July 3.
Chief Electricians
Mat e (SS) Davi d
Chechi l e, who i s
assi gned t o USS
Montpelier, reenlisted
for six years on the steps
of the capitol building
during the ceremony.
I really wanted to
make it a special day
for my wife, our family
and our boats name-
sake, said Chechile. I
was already planning to
reenlist and what better
place than right here in
the capitol. I think it
helps me demonstrate to
the city of Montpelier,
what an honor it is for
me to serve our great
nation.
Senator Bill Doyle;
Representative Warren
Kitzmiller, and John
Hol l ar, Mont pel i er
Mayor, also attended
the ceremony.
Commander Tom
A. Winter, command-
ing officer of USS
Montpelier; Chief of the
Boat, Master Chief Fire
Control Technician (SS)
Brian K. Apfel; Chechile,
and other crew mem-
bers visited the name-
sake city. During their
three-day visit, July 2
- 4, the VFW post 792,
the largest post in the
state, hosted the crew.
Winter reflected on
the long standing rela-
tionship the boat has
with their host city.
Every time we return
to the boat and share our
stories with the rest of
the crew there is always
a new generation of
Montpelier Sailors sprout-
ing up who want to make
the trip the next year. I
think that is a testament
to the overwhelming gen-
erosity of the capital for
which we are named,
said Winter.
Hollar echoed the com-
manding officers senti-
ments. We value the
honor that you and your
crew bring to our great
city of Montpelier, said
Hollar.
Don McCormick, Post
792 commander was glad
to have had the opportu-
nity to support the men
of the Montpelier.
It is an honor to host
the Montpelier crew,
said McCormick. We
have such a great rela-
tionship and I look
forward to continuing
and building upon that
mutual bond.
Montpelier is the third
ship in the U.S. Navy
to be named for the
capitol city of Vermont.

News Shipbuilding and

NEW LONDON, Conn. - Above, the United States Coast Guard Cutter Barque Eagle (WIX 327) makes
its way up the Thames River during the Parade of Sail, July 7. The Eagle led the parade of 20 ships
into the port of New London for OpSail Connecticut 2012. Eagle is a training vessel used to train
Coast Guard Academy Cadets in basic seamanship during their time at the Academy. Below, the Dock
Landing Ship USS Carter Hall (LSD 50) sails past the crowded foot pier in New London as the ship

the ships well deck.

Navy and OPSAIL CT
leave strong wake
By Navy New London
Public Affairs
NEW LONDON, Conn.
Operation Sail (OpSail)
2012 Connecticut, the
final port of call for the
numerous signature
events around the coun-
try commemorating the
U.S. sea services, OpSail
2012, the Bicentennial
of the War of 1812, and
the Star-Spangled Banner,
concluded here Monday,
July 9.
As the Navys major
participant, the 609 ft.
long, Navy Dock Landing
Ship, USS Carter Hall (LSD
50), slipped its moorings
at New Londons State
Pier and headed south
down the Thames River,
it left in its wake tens
of thousands of impressed
citizens of Connecticut
and New England who
had been thrilled to meet
Sailors, Marines and Coast
Guardsmen, as well as see,
first-hand, the latest capa-
bilities of todays maritime
services.
OpSail Connecticut pro-
vided our Sailors, Marines
and units of our Navys
Surface fleet like Carter
Hall, a wonderful oppor-
tunity to enjoy an area
of our great Nation that
loves the Navy and that
they may not have oth-
erwise experienced, said
Capt. Marc W. Denno,
Naval Submarine Base
New London (SUBASE)
Commanding Officer
and Navy lead for OpSail
Connecticut. One Carter
Hall Sailor would sum up
the experience: to stand
on the deck and embark
on this public event with
throngs of people cheering
and applauding made him
feel like an astronaut.
Niantic Bay
The multi-day OpSail
Connecticut celebration
began July 6, with many
of the 24 ships that would
be involved in the next
days Parade of Sail up
the Thames River to New
London, anchoring in
Niantic Bay.
As Dock Landing Ships
support amphibious oper-
ations including landings
of U.S. Marines and other
forces onto hostile shores,
Carter Hall and its crew
of more than 500 Marines
and Sailors kicked-off
OpSail Connecticut with
an awe-inspiring demon-
stration of one of their
Navy amphibious landing
craft.
A Landing Craft Air
Cushion (LCAC) from
Carter Hall, made an
unprecedented amphibi-
ous landing on Niantics
Hole in the Wall Beach at
4:15 p.m., to thunderous
applause from a mass of
onlookers.
After landing, the LCAC
embarked a small number
of OpSail officials and Navy
guests to include OpSail
Connecticut Chairman
John Johnson, for a brief
ride.
The LCAC then stormed
the beach, landing and
rolling-off a number of
U.S. Marine Corps vehi-
cles and personnel includ-
ing a few High Mobility
Multipurpose Wheeled
Vehicles (HMMWV) or
Humvees.
Being on the LCAC as
it stormed the beach was
awesome! exclaimed
Jeanette Vatter, wife
of SUBASE Command
Master Chief Tommy
Vatter. This was defi-
nitely a once in the life-
time experience.
Other Carter Hall Sailors
and Marines came ashore
to the adjacent McCook
Park to join a welcome
celebration and cook-out
for Navy, Coast Guard
and OpSail crews coordi-
nated by East Lyme First
Selectman Paul Formica
and many local businesses
and restaurants.
The Niantic affair set
the tone for the rest of
the weekend. A fabulous
event! said Johnson.
Parade of Sail
On Saturday, July 7,
the eagerly anticipated
Parade of Sail into New
London included nine U.S.
Navy and U.S Coast Guard
ships.
Representing the U.S
Coast Guard were the 87-
foot Coastal Patrol Boats
Sailfish and Ridley, buoy
tender Juniper (WLB 201),
icebreaker Morro Bay

NIANTIC, Conn. After storming the Hole in the Wall Beach at McCook Park on July 6, the Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC) deployed two
United States Marine Corps vehicles and then allowed personnel to tour the LCAC and armored vehicles. The LCAC can deploy a variety
of equipment in a hostile area, and when not loaded with cargo the LCAC can deploy 300 Marines into combat.

In addition to USS Carter Hall, four Yard Patrol Craft from the United States Navy
Academy represented the Navy.
The public then had a chance to visit Carter Hall, Eagle, and other OpSail
ships when they were open for tours Saturday and Sunday. The public was
also able to observe a U.S. Coast Guard fly-over with both fixed wing and
rotary aircraft during the Parade of Sail on the Thames River on Saturday;
and, a Coast Guard Search and Rescue demonstration with a helicopter just
off the Fort Trumbull State Park pier in the Thames River on Sunday.
To see a side of the Navy those of us at SUBASE and Naval Submarine
School (SUBSCOL) rarely see was really special, said Electronics Technician
Seaman Stephen Cordova from the Silver Dolphins. Being a Silver Dolphin
has given me the opportunity to see vessels like the Carter Hall, I can only
imagine how exciting an experience it was for members of the public whove
only seen such ships and equipment in movies.

Market En Plein Air celebrates Connecticuts harvest
On July 28 from 9 a.m. to 3
p.m., the abundance and excite-
ment of a French country mar-
ket comes to Connecticut. For
the fourteenth year, the Florence
Griswold Museum in Old Lyme
hosts Market En Plein Air, a
place for artisanal bakers, organ-
ic farmers, and specialty food
producers to show off their spe-
cialties. Last year, more than
6,000 people attended this spe-
cial event that is part of Old
Lyme Midsummer Festival. A
chefs competition, an artisan
craft fair, dog contest, book sign-
ings, and hands-on activity area
round out the food-focused expe-
rience!
Modeled after the outdoor mar-
kets found in villages throughout
France, Market En Plein Air fea-
tures the freshest organic fruits
and vegetables, flowers, breads,
fine cheeses, herbs, and specialty
foods - all of the highest quality
and all produced in Connecticut.
Twenty-eight specially selected
vendors will be on hand with
delicious items to sample and take
home. Festivalgoers can enjoy
a prepared lunch by Gourmet
Galley and stroll the Museums
11-acre historic site along the
banks of the Lieutenant River.
Many vendors from previous
years are returning with some
of their most popular special-
ties, including artisan breads by
Howards Bread in Chester and
Alfornos in Deep River, farm-
stead cheeses by Cato Corner
Farm in Colchester; organic veg-
etables by White Gate Farm in
East Lyme; and fresh roasted cof-
fee from Ashlawn Farm in Lyme.
Newcomers include Hostas and
shade plants by John OBrien
Nursery in West Granby, fruit,
vegetables, and eggs from Killian
and Bassette Farmstead in South
Glastonbury, and Italian baked
goods and pasta from Merianos
Bake Shoppe in Guilford.
The market takes its name
from the tradition of painting en
plein air, which is French for,
in the open air. The Florence
Griswold Museum is the home
of Lyme Art Colony, a group of
early 20th century Impressionist
artist who came to capture
Connecticuts abundant scenery.
These artists took their canvases,
paints, and palettes into the pas-
tures and down to the shore-
line to paint the world firsthand.
Market En Plein Air celebrates
Connecticuts artistic heritage as
well as its homegrown goodness.
Located on the riverfront grounds
of the Museum, the market takes
place under a series of tents
bursting with colorful displays.
Even four-legged friends can
participate in the days activities
with Parading Paws Dog Show
hosted by Vista Vocational &
Life Skills Center of Westbrook.

grounds of the Museum is Hands-

3 p.m.
At noon, the Bee and Thistle

dors. Using those items, they

OLD LYME, Conn. - One of the highlights of Old Lyme Midsummer Festival is the Florence Griswold Museums Market En Plein Air.
This outdoor market features Connecticut-grown flowers, fruits, vegetables, breads, fine cheeses, herbs and specialty foods in a
setting modeled after outdoor markets in French villages.
Submarine School Silver Dolphin
Precision Drill Team. Distinguished local
visitors to the event not only had an
opportunity to learn some War of 1812
Navy history but also to tour Carter Hall
and learn about its recent missions.
To be aboard the USS Carter Hall
for the reception and fireworks on
Saturday night... was a rare opportu-
nity, indeed. The ship was awesome
in the true sense of the word, said
Mayor Marian Galbraith of the City of
Groton. The crew members we met
could not have been more gracious.
Community Interaction
On Sunday, while a contingent of
some 60 Carter Hall Sailors ran in New
Londons Sailfest 5-K Road Race, 35 mid-
shipmen from the U.S. Naval Academy
Yard Patrol Craft participating in OpSail
Connecticut participated in a communi-
ty service project with the New London
Homeless Hospitality Center. The mid-
shipmen had also donated dozens of
boxes of extra food to the Gemma E.
Moran United Way - Labor Food Center
upon their arrival to New London.
The Mids were so incredibly posi-
tive and pleased to be supporting the
community and making a difference,
said SUBASE OpSail Planning Officer
Lt. Paul Blodgett. And the volun-
teer coordinators at the Homeless
Hospitality Center were astounded
that these young people would give
up their Sunday liberty so freely to
help others.
For all their hard work planning
and participating in the three day
OpSail Connecticut event, Navy and
Coast Guard crews were treated to
an OpSail wrap-up cook-out, lun-
cheon, and barbeque at Grotons
Shennecossett Yacht Club (SYC).
Kudos for the great barbeque they
had at SYC, said former Congressman Rob
Simmons and OpSail 2012 Connecticut
Treasurer. I was there for two hours
talking to Coasties and Sailors, and what
a treat that was. They were very appre-
ciative of the low key relaxing environ-
ment and wonderful hospitality.
For Blodgett, the real tribute to the
whole OpSail 2012 Connecticut event
went beyond the impact the Navy
made during the celebration to the
impact that OpSail and New London
made on the Navy.
All the hard work and effort came
into sharp focus when I felt rewarded
to hear a Carter Hall Sailor tell me,
that in his ten years of going to sea
with Navy, this was the best and
friendliest port visit he experienced,
said Blodgett.
OpSail 2012 and its commemoration of
the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812
was a salute to all Sailors, Marines, and
Coast Guardsmen, who fought gallantly in
that conflict, who served in all our nations
conflicts since then, and who are defend-
ing freedom around the world today.
