Competition was fierce among the eight teams taking part in the June 16-17 Battle of Commands
at Naval Base Ventura County, and the beach flags event one of 11 that made up the Battle
of Commands was no exception. Trying to be the first to pull the green tube from the sand
are, from left, CM3 Ian LeMarbre of the 31st SRGs Hawaii 5-O team, AE3 Charles Webb of
the Fleet Readiness Centers Haoles team and GMSR Cody Parker of the 31st SRGs Mod
Squad Team. Parker won this heat, then came in second in the finals to HM3 Steven Alnes of
Naval Branch Health Centers Shipwreck team. VX-30s team, the Patriots, won the Battle of
Commands. Story, photos and overall results, Pages 20-21.

The second phase of construction at
the NEX and commissary parking lot is
scheduled to start in early July.
The project, which is designed to make
the parking lot safer and improve traffic
flow to the Warfield Gym via Addor Av-
enue, will require that the main 23rd Av-
enue entrance into the NEX and com-
missary parking lot and gas station be
closed starting July 6.
People needing to shop at the commis-
sary will need to go all the way around
the complex turning left on Harris
Street, left on 29th Avenue and left on
Addor Avenue and enter the parking
lot off Addor Avenue.
People needing to shop at the NEXcan
also park there or in the lot bordering
Harris Street.
Gas station traffic will remain one way,
with the entrance to the pumps moving
to the southeast side of the station. The
exit will remain the same and should not
be used as an alternate entrance.
There will be times when one lane of
gas pumps will be shut down, so cus-
tomer patience is appreciated. The con-
tractor will work closely with the gas
station manager to schedule these during
off-peak days and off-peak hours, said
Carrie Wyrick of Naval Facilities South-
west, the project manager.
Access to the Warfield Gym, Seabreeze
Aquatics Center and Bee-Fit Health and
Wellness Center will continue to be rout-
ed via Harris Street to 29th Avenue and
Addor Avenue.
Pedestrian traffic along the commissary
and NEX storefront will remain open,
and the pedestrian access gate fromNeed-
ham Theater to the parking lot will also
remain open.
With parking at a premium, those who
work in buildings near the NEXand com-
missary are asked to park in other lots
and not near the shopping complex.
Detour signs will be installed to guide
traffic in the area.
The project was initially supposed to
have begun in January and would have
been finished by now, but federal budget
issues delayed its start date to April.
When completed, Addor Avenue will
be a clearly marked roadway along the
outer edge of the NEX and commissary
parking lot, and stalls in the parking lot
will be angular instead of perpendicular
to clarify the direct direction of travel.

Seventy-six Marines from Weapons Company, 2nd Battalion, 23rd Marines, based at Naval
Base Ventura County, Port Hueneme, make their way up the six miles from Mugu Beach to
Laguna Peak on June 11. The varied terrain and elevation change provided the Marines with
a great opportunity to increase endurance and experience a different training environment,
explained Capt. Steven Aguilera. After the hike, the Marines held a Mess Night, during which
a traditional dinner was served and Marines paid homage to Marines of the past.

in focus

Wilson
Fourth of July, Independence Day, our
nations birthday: a holiday full of pic-
nics, fireworks and a shortened work
week.
In preparation for this column, I re-
turned to my history books for a re-
fresher on Independence Day. In doing
so, I discovered I am not ready for Are
You Smarter than a Fifth Grader? on
this topic.
How is your Independence Day knowl-
edge?
Did you know
Initially the Continental Congress
did not seek independence from Eng-
land, but rather representation in Parlia-
ment on the affairs of the colonies?
Independence Day did not become
a national holiday until 1941?
The Declaration of Independence
was first signed on July 4, 1776, by
Thomas Jefferson but was not signed by
all the congressional representatives un-
til mid-August?
Signing the Declaration of Indepen-
dence was an act of treason, punishable
by death?
France became an ally in our strug-
gle for independence by supplying arms,
naval support and munitions in our
battle for independence?
John Hancock penned his name large
so Great Britains King Charles could
read it without spectacles?
While the Declaration of Indepen-
dence was signed in July-August 1776,
the first shots of battle were fired April
18-19, 1775, made famous by the ride
of Paul Revere?
The Revolutionary War for Indepen-
dence was fought by an all volunteer
force?
The Revolutionary War was fought
from 1775 through 1783, ending with
the signing of the Treaty of Paris on
Sept. 3, 1783 a duration of eight
years?
George Washington surrendered his
commission as General of the Army on
Dec. 23, 1783, stating he would take
leave of all employments of public
life?
Washington became president of the
United States in 1789?
Taking time to revisit the history of
our nation, the struggle for indepen-
dence and the forging of a new nation
and a new government caused me to
again marvel that a rag-tag group of
volunteers could defeat the British and
establish a country that would rise to
that of a superpower. Were a blessed
nation, we live in a blessed time. Oh,
sure, gas prices are too high and home
prices are dropping, but we all still have
our cell phones, computers, and HDTVs
and SUVs. 9/11 seems long ago, and we
live with a feeling of relative safety.
It also caused me to take a fresh look
at Iraq and Afghanistan. It took our na-
tion from 1774 (meeting of the first
Continental Congress) to 1789 for our
first president to be elected and 1790 for
the last state (Rhode Island) to ratify
the constitution a span of 16 years.
Unity and national identity take time,
even in a day and age of Internet, cable
TV and cell phones.
We value our independence and free-
dom and we should. We enjoy a rich
heritage passed down from those who
were willing to sacrifice their personal
pursuit of life, liberty and happiness
so that those who follow were free for
that very pursuit. As military families,
of an all volunteer force, we share in that
heritage.
Have a great holiday weekend. Enjoy
time with your family and friends and
the spectacular fireworks and thank
you for your service to preserve our
heritage of freedom and indepen-
dence.

Moving every 2.9 years often means
learning a new culture with every move.
Schools have a culture every state, every
county, every school district has different
ways of doing things.
If you are new to Naval Base Ventura
County, here are some tips and bits of
information that you may find are differ-
ent than the school you left.
School registration
Many schools, especially elementary and
middle schools, will close during the
month of July and sometimes into August.
This may mean that families will need to
register in August before school starts, or
it may mean that families will register at
the school district. The NBVC school li-
aison officer has more information on
each school district near NBVC and their
summer registration process.
Whooping cough vaccine
For the 2011-12 school year, a newstate
law now requires that all incoming stu-
dents in seventh through 12 grades get a
whooping cough booster shot, called
Tdap, before entering school. Students
who have not received this booster shot
prior to the beginning of the school year
will not be allowed to start school. This
new immunization requirement is intend-
ed to help reduce the spread of whooping
cough disease among Californias youth.
In recent years, California, as well as the
rest of the United States, has seen an in-
crease in the number of whooping cough
cases. In 2010, California experienced the
highest number of reported cases in more
than 60 years.
Class assignments
Typically, elementary schools will post
class assignments in the front of the school
the week prior to schools start. Middle
schools will typically hand out the stu-
dents schedules the first day of school
some may have an orientation day one
week prior. High schools will usually have
a student schedule pick-up day the week
prior to schools beginning a day of the
week assigned to each grade level.
Supplemental programs and
extracurricular activities
Depending on grade level and district,
many supplemental programs have been
cut from the schools programs. Many
elementary schools no longer have gym
class, art class or music/band. Those that
do pay for it through parent fundraising
and community foundations. This doesnt
mean that your child will not have the op-
portunity to participate in physical educa-
tion, art or music. Typically, the regular
classroomteacher will integrate it into the
daily curriculum. Students in middle
school and high school will have gymclass
required and art/music will often be one
of the elective courses. Sports and extra-
curricular activities are offered at the
middle schools and high schools; how-
ever, parents may be asked to help fund
their childs participation in such pro-
grams.
Dress code
Dress codes vary within the districts
here in Ventura County. Some elemen-
tary and middle schools have a uniform
requirement. Others, including high
schools, have dress code policies forbid-
ding certain clothing items. Most middle
schools and high schools do not allowany
clothing representing a professional sports
team. However, many will encourage col-
lege teams logos; some schools will allow
college attire every day and others will
encourage it on certain days. Since each
school has a unique dress code policy, it
is best to check with your students school
before the first day of school.

Some of my greatest memories in life
are from my summer camp days my
time as a camper and counselor for numer-
ous summers. Like other fortunate grown-
ups who are also camp alumni, we would
love nothing more than to pass this unique
experience to the next generation of kids
we love and care for.
For those who have never attended sum-
mer camp, it is hard to explain why eating
a Smores a combination of chocolate
and marshmallows squished between two
grahamcrackers over a campfire is one
of the greatest culinary treats ever invent-
ed by man.
Or perhaps the best experience of all is
simply for one to get away fromhomework
and be with his or her best mates for a
couple of weeks at a rustic cabin in the
woods. Instead of their mastering long
division or the multiplication tables, they
can focus on other important skills, like
how to build a campfire, shoot a bow and
arrow, or catch and clean a fish for their
cabins fish fry.
Looking back, maybe the most valuable
lesson I learned at camp is howto live with
other people, in close quarters, who are
different than I am. I recall we had camp-
ers from the inner cities as well as those
fromthe suburbs. Although we began each
new session warily checking each other
out, by the end of camp we became good
buddies by staying up late at night, laugh-
ing at silly jokes, playing sports against
other campers and listening to classic
campfire tales.
This summer I want to offer an invita-
tion to families who have kids to join us
for this years Vacation Bible School. This
is a wonderful day camp opportunity,
along with the normal fun and games,
where they will also learn something about
the timeless values of faith and family.
While this week is not an overnight
event, it will still be a tremendous time for
your youngsters to make new friends and
laugh and play for awhile before school
begins again in the fall.
If you are interested in sending your
children to our Naval Base Ventura Coun-
ty Chapel Vacation Bible School, or if you
want to know what spiritual themes will
be presented at VBS this summer, please
call Tammy Baca at 805-844-9575. This
weeklong event is open to children be-
tween the ages of 3 and 12; each day will
be from 9 a.m. to noon Aug. 8-12. The
location of this event will be at the Chapel
of Faith, Point Mugu.
Registration is open now and continues
through Aug. 1. Hope to see some of you
there.
Have a great summer. God bless you!

created to track Soviet submarines. Today
the windowless building that once housed
that top-secret station is used as office
space for Smith, Ugoretz and other ecol-
ogists, biologists and archeologists.
When the island tour was over, guests
headed back to the hub of the island, Nick
Town, where the military personnel live.
It includes the galley, a theater, a chapel,
a gym, a separate workout facility with
pool and exercise equipment and a
store.
Theres also the Launch Pad, a lounge
and entertainment center where Morale,
Welfare and Recreation served up barbe-
cued tri-tip and ribs on Saturday after-
noon.
The weekend activities included a
bounce house for kids and volleyball in
the gym. MWR loaned out fishing poles
and bicycles. On both Friday and Saturday
nights, the Ventura band Alchemy played
in the Launch Pad.
Several movies were shown in the theater
over the weekend, and on Sunday night,
MWRhosted another feast this one an
Italian dinner and ice creamsocial fol-
lowed by bingo.
Outside of the planned activities, some
families took the opportunity to enjoy
spending time together, getting to know
other workers on the island that their loved
ones live and work with.
Ive been here for two years, and I re-
ally wanted my family to see where I
work, said Ships Serviceman Rusty
Gatchalian, who invited his brother, Ro-
lando, and his brothers family to the is-
land. Its hard for them to picture it.
Steve Chung, the community planning
liaison officer for Navy Region Southwest,
said he had a good idea of what the island
looked like even though hed never been
there before Family Weekend.
I dont know how many times my
daughter has read Island of the Blue Dol-
phins, he said of 10-year-old Amber.
Shed given me a good description, so I
had a leg up on that.
He called the weekend spectacular,
and Amber agreed that it was fun, espe-
cially the tidepools.
The island is both tranquil and excit-
ing, Chung said. This will go down as
one of my favorite Fathers Days.

Weekend, experienced here at Rock Crusher Point by CS1 Misty McMasters and her 5-
year-old son, Marquis.

On Saturday, July 30, Operation
Homefront Southern California will say
thank you to military families by pro-
viding their children with needed school
supplies and new backpacks for the
school year.
Registered military families (E-1 to
E-6) are invited to attend the Backpack
Brigade from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the
Fleet & Family Support Center, Naval
Base Ventura County, Port Hueneme,
where 350 children will be able to
choose their own special backpack and
stuff them with new supplies for a suc-
cessful school year.
If you are a military family and would
like to learn more about how to par-
ticipate and register for the program,
see www.operationhomefront.net/socal
and click on July 30 on the event cal-
endar.
Operation Homefront Southern Cal-
ifornia provides emergency financial
and other assistance to the families of
service members and wounded war-
riors.
A national nonprofit, Operation
Homefront Southern California leads
more than 440 volunteers and met more
than 11,500 emergency financial and
morale needs in fiscal year 2009-10.
For more information visit
www.OperationHomefront.net/socal.
Backpack Brigade returns to NBVC
The Veterans Home of California in
Ventura is teaming with driving experts
to hold a CarFit event, a unique, free
education program designed to help ma-
ture drivers 55 and older understand how
to improve driving safety by ensuring their
cars are properly adjusted for them.
The event will be held on Saturday, July
16, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at 10900 Tele-
phone Road, Ventura, 93004.
The check-up is free, but appointments
are required and can be made by calling
the phone number 659-7501.
CarFit is not a mechanical inspection
of the car or a test of the drivers ability.
Instead, during each 20-minute CarFit
session, trained technicians recommend
personal vehicle adjustments and adapta-
tions and offer resources that could en-
hance senior driving safety.
Occupational therapists will also be on
hand to provide information on adaptive
devices, such as pedal extenders and seat
cushions.
Older drivers invited to July 16 CarFit

NBVC 2010 Consumer Confidence Report
NAVALBASE
VENTURACOUNTY
2010 CONSUMER
CONFIDENCE REPORT
IS MYTAPWATER SAFE TO DRINK?
Yes. Your drinking water meets all U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) and California Department of
Public Health (CDPH) water quality standards.
Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC) is committed to
providing you complete and accurate information regarding
the safety of the water you drink. Required annually by the
CDPH, this Consumer Confdence Report (CCR) includes
information showing the quality of the drinking water
delivered to personnel and residents at NBVC Point Mugu,
Port Hueneme, and San Nicolas Island (SNI) during the
previous calendar year. The report also includes details about
where your water comes from, what it contains, and how it
compares to State standards.
Note: This report contains important information about your
drinking water. Please share this information with all the
other people who drink this water. especially those who may
not have received this notice directly (for example. people in
apartments. nursing homes. schools. and businesses). You
can do this by posting this public notice in a public place
or distributing copies by hand or mail. Translate it. or speak
with someone who understands it.
Spanish: Este informe contiene informacin muy importante
sobre su agua potable. Tradzcalo hable con alguien que lo
entienda bien.
WHERE DOES MYWATER COME FROM?
Point Mugu and Port Hueneme
NBVC Point Mugu and Port Hueneme receive the same
drinking water as the City of Port Hueneme and the Channel
Islands Beach Community District, which is purchased
from the Port Hueneme Water Agency (PHWA). The PHWA
provides treatment to groundwater that comes primarily from
the United Water Conservation District (United). United`s
water, in turn, comes from local groundwater resources in
the El Rio area of Ventura County. This water is pumped
from shallow wells drilled into the Oxnard and Fox Canyon
aquifers, which are fed by the Santa Clara River drainage
basin. The drainage basin receives water from various sources
such as: percolative contributions from regional rainfall,
rivers, and streams; and to a far lesser degree contribution
from the percolation of wastewater treatment plants, and
agricultural runoff.
PHWA`s water treatment plant uses three state-of-the-art
membrane fltration technologies to treat the United water.
These desalination techniques are known as reverse osmosis
(RO), nanofltration (NF), and electrodialysis reversal (EDR).
The treatment process softens the water received from
United by lowering the mineral content and minimizes the
corrosiveness of the water through the addition of sodium
hydroxide. The water is disinfected using chloramines instead
of chlorine. Chloramines have better taste, fewer odors, and
reduce the formation of Disinfection By-Products (DBP`s)
in the water, which is a known carcinogen. Fish owners
should chemically remove the chloramines from the PHWA
water when preparing ush tank water. Failure to remove
the chloramines could result in risk to the aquatic life in the
tank.
State water imported by the Metropolitan Water District of
Southern California (MWD) is an additional water source
for the PHWA. MWD imports water from the San Francisco-
San Joaquin Bay-Delta via the State Water Project through
a network of reservoirs, aqueducts, and pump stations. The
State water is fltered and disinfected by MWD surface
water treatment plants and brought into Ventura County by
Calleguas Municipal Water District (Calleguas). Calleguas
brings the State water to the PHWA treatment plant, where it
is blended with the treated United water and then delivered to
you. The blended water contains about 2.5 parts per million
chloramines (2.5 parts per million is equivalent to 5 drops of
ink dropped into a 26 gallon fsh tank). The concentration of
chloramines is within the water quality standards intended to
safeguard public health.
InOctober 2001, Unitedcompleteda SourceWaterAssessment
for its drinking water wells. This assessment provides a survey
of potential contamination sources of the groundwater that
supplies United`s well. Activities that constitute the highest
risk are petroleum storage tanks and fueling operations, septic
systems, and abandoned animal feedlots. Groundwater at
United is vulnerable to contamination by MTBE, a gasoline
additive. No MTBE has been detected in United`s wells as
of this report. United continues to monitor the water quality
of its delivered water. A new Surface Water Sanitary Survey
was completed in January 2011 and was submitted to CDPH.
Copies of the Source Water Assessment Survey / Surface
Water Sanitary Survey are available from United at (805)
525-4431.
In December 2002, MWD completed its Source Water
Assessment of its State Water Project supplies. State Water
Project supplies are considered to be the most vulnerable to
urban/storm water runoff, wildlife, agriculture, recreation,
and wastewater. Acopy of the assessment can be obtained by
contacting MWD at (213) 217-6850.
San Nicolas Island
The Navy produces drinking water for NBVC SNI through
the desalination of sea water. The RO treatment plant draws
seawater from ten beach wells, desalinates, and treats the
water in two RO units. The fnished water is distributed to
approximately 76 service connections on the island. The waste
brine from the RO units is discharged to a beach wet well.
HOW IS MYWATER MONITORED?
NBVC monitors the drinking water quality by taking daily,
weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annual water samples
according to federal and state drinking water regulations.
Water testing is routinely performed to detect bacteria and
protozoan, disinfectant residual, minerals, radioactivity,
inorganic and organic chemicals, and other water quality
parameters. The site specifc tables in this report list the
drinking water constituents that were detected during 2010
calendar year.
WHYARE CONTAMINANTS IN MYWATER?
The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled
water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs,
springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the
land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring
minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can
pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or
from human activity. Contaminants that may be present in
source water before it is treated include the following:
Microbial
Contaminant
Inorganic
Contaminants
Pesticides &
Herbicides
Organic
Chemicals
Radioactive
Contaminants
To ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the EPA and
CDPH prescribe regulations that limit the amount of certain
contaminants in water provided by public water systems.
CDPH regulations also establish limits for contaminants in
bottled water that provide the same protection for public
health.
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants
in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-
compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing
chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants,
people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders,
some elderly, and some infants can be particularly at risk from
infections. These people should seek advice about drinking
tap water from their health care providers. EPA/Centers for
Disease Control (CDC) guidelines on appropriate means to
lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other
Viruses and bacteria, which may come
from sewage treatment plants, septic
systems, agricultural livestock operations
and wildlife.
Salts and metals, that can be naturally-
occurring or result from urban storm water
runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater
discharges, oil and gas production, mining
or farming.
May come from a variety of sources such
as agriculture, urban storm water runoff,
and residential uses.
Including synthetic and volatile organic
chemicals, which are by-products of
industrial processes and petroleum
production, and can also come from
gas stations, urban storm water runoff,
agricultural application, and septic
systems.
Can be naturally-occurring or be the result
of oil and gas production and mining
activities.

microbial contaminants are available from the Safe
Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791.
Radon is a radioactive gas and known human carcinogen
that you cannot see, taste, or smell. Found throughout the
U.S., radon can move up through the ground and into a
home through cracks and holes in the foundation. Radon
can build up to high levels in all types of homes. Radon can
also get into indoor air when released from tap water as a
result of showering, washing dishes, and other household
activities. Compared to radon entering the home through
soil, radon entering the home through tap water will in most
cases be a small source of radon in indoor air. Breathing
air containing radon can lead to lung cancer. Drinking
water containing radon may also cause increased risk of
stomach cancer. If you are concerned about radon in your
home, test the air in your home. Testing is inexpensive
and easy. Fix your home if the level of radon in your air
is 4 picocuries per liter of air (pCi/L) or higher. There are
simple ways to fx a radon problem that are not too costly.
For additional information, call your State radon program
at (800) 745-7236 or call EPA`s Radon Hotline at (800)
SOS-RADON.
HOW CAN I GET MORE INFORMATION?

Water Quality Data
The following table summarizes drinking water
contaminants detected in the water delivered to NBVC
Port Hueneme and Point Mugu during the 2010 calendar
year. Drinking water, including bottled water, may
reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts
of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does
not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk.
More information about contaminants and potential health
effects can be obtained by calling the EPA`s Safe Drinking
Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791. Unless otherwise noted,
the data presented in these tables is from testing done
January 1 through December 31, 2010. The State requires
that we monitor for certain contaminants less than once
per year because the concentrations of these contaminants
are not expected to vary signifcantly from year to year.
Some of the data, though representative of water quality,
is more than one year old.

NMCB 5s team, the Mother Truckers, compete in the tug-o-war, the last event in the two-day Battle of Commands. The Mod Squad, one of two teams fielded by the
31st SRG, won the tug-o-war contest.
By Andrea Howry
Lighthouse editor
Eight teams, twice as many as last year,
competed in the 2011 Naval Base Ventura
County Battle of Commands, a two-day
event made up of 11 competitions ranging
fromthe human slip-n-slide to a tug-o-war
to a sandcastle-building contest.
We havent had this many teams com-
pete in a long time,said Amanda Haskell,
special events coordinator for Morale,
Welfare and Recreation, which organized
the event. This is a really good show-
ing.
Air Test and Evaluation Squadron 30
(VX-30), whose team nickname was The
Patriots, repeated its 2009 victory, edging
out the Fleet Readiness Centers (FRC)
Haoles.
The Mod Squad, one of two teams
fielded by the 31st Seabee Readiness
Group (SRG), came in third.
Next up was the 2010 winner, Naval
Branch Health Center, The Shipwrecks,
followed by the second 31st SRG team,
Hawaii 5-0.
Coming in sixth was Naval Mobile Con-
struction Battalion 5s team, the Mother
Truckers; seventh was the Tiki-Tiki Team
of the Airborne Command Control and
Logistics Wing (ACCLOGWING); and
eighth was the NBVC team, the N9ers.
Competition started Thursday, June 16,
with the human slip-n-slide. Members of
each teamslid down a soap-slickened strip
of plastic on an inner tube. There was a
three-way tie at 90 feet, but the showstop-
per was Aviation Electronics Technician
Airman John Masters of FRC, who
popped one of the inner tubes after going
airborne at the start of the course. The
team argued for extra style points but lost
their case; in the end, VX-30 collected the
most number of points in that event.
Two aquatics races also took place
Thursday at the Seabreeze Pool at NBVC
Port Hueneme: an inner tube relay, in
which competitors had to swimacross the
pool wearing a long dress, scarf, purse and
inner tube; and a boat race involving rafts,
cold sprays of water, an inflatable shark
and the ability to row. VX-30 and FRC
tied the inner tube relay; the Mod Squad
won the boat race because they pulled the
inflatable shark into their raft, collecting
extra points.
(This was a newexperience for the shark.
MWR had purchased it earlier in the day
to replace the one that did not survive last
years spirited competition.)
VX-30 defeats 7 other teams in Battle of Commands
SEE BATTLE, PAGE 21
The next day was spent on the beach at
Point Mugu. First came an obstacle course
that ended with a non-traditional segment:
digging up a jigsaw puzzle buried in the
sand and putting it together.
Mama does puzzles!Builder 1st Class
Brandy Olmstead yelled out as she placed
the last piece and led her team, the Mod
Squad of 31st SRG, to a victory in that
heat. VX-30, however ended up winning
the overall obstacle course competition.
There was also a water run relay and a
race to build a human pyramid out of 10
people and hold the position for 10
seconds.
Hawaii 5-Owon the water run relay, but
the Mother Truckers captain, Construc-
tion Mechanic 2nd Class Joshua Norrick,
had a good excuse as to why NMCB 5
didnt. Wearing a bandana with a long wig
attached, Norrick tossed back his locks
and explained, Gotta keep the hair
dry.
ACCLOGWING won the human pyr-
amid contest.
Next was the beach flags, which result-
ed in the only injury in this years Battle
of Commands: Hospital Corpsman 2nd
Class Lewis Delacruz of The Shipwrecks
suffered a broken wrist when someone fell
on him as he was reaching for the flag,
a green tube extruding from the sand. His
teamwent on to win, with Hospital Corps-
man 3rd Class Steven Alnes grabbing the
last flag standing.
Following that was Izzy-Dizzy, a relay
race involving extremely dizzy contestants,
and a seven-legged race. VX-30 won Izzy
Dizzy and tied with FRC in the seven-
legged race.
While each competition was taking
place, other team members were building
sandcastles further down the beach. The
winner was FRC, which clinched the title
after releasing live turtles on the islands
of Hawaii.
The last event of the day was a tug-of-
war. The Mod Squad squeaked past Ha-
waii 5-O, earning a five-point edge by
having a female on the team.
Points were also given for the team
theme and banner.
The first Battle of Commands took
place on base in 1988, and it has been held
sporadically ever since, becoming a regu-
lar event in 2007. In 2003, it was a special
one-day Welcome Home Troops event
and 19 teams took part, with Underwater
Construction Team 2 winning first
place.

Friday, July 22, from 4 to 10 p.m., although the
museum will not be open.
Admission and parking are free.
A free shuttle will take visitors from the Seabee
Days events to the new museum, which is outside
the gates on Ventura Road. The shuttle station will
be at the corner of 23rd Avenue and Harris Street
and will run during museum hours, 9 a.m. to 5
p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
At the museum, visitors will see NEMO, the
Naval Experimental Manned Observatory that was
built at Port Hueneme more than four decades ago
by the Naval Civil Engineering Lab, now the Na-
val Facilities Engineering Service Center.
The pilot could take an engineer to the floor
of the ocean to oversee the Underwater Construc-
tion Team divers lay cable on the ocean floor,
explained Lara Godbille, director of the museum.
It allowed the engineers who developed the cable
systems to see how their equipment was working
underwater. Until NEMO, they had no ability to
see or communicate with the divers.
NEMO traveled to a depth of 614 feet with
people in it, and after it became obsolete, it was
parked outside the submarine ride at Disneyland.
It weighs more than two tons.
This exhibit tells the story of the Ocean Fa-
cilities Program, and its a story that has never
been told before in the Seabee Museum,Godbille
said. In the late 1960s, the Navy was laying cable
all over the world and pushing for deep water ex-
ploration. This represents the underwater version
of the space race.
Seabee Days, July 23-24 with Military
Night July 22, celebrates nearly 70 years
of accomplishments by the Navys con-
struction engineers. Events include hands-
on displays and demonstrations of con-
struction and disaster recovery skills and

NEXs worldwide have a new type of
plastic bag now being used for customer
purchases.
The new bag is made with at least 35
percent recycled material. Unlike the pre-
vious NEXplastic bags which were white,
the new recycled bags have a grey body
color based upon the high level of recycled
material used in its production.
For those customers who prefer to use
a reusable bag, NEXs give a five-cent
credit for each eco-friendly reusable bag
used to bag a customers purchase. Cus-
tomers may either bring their reusable bag
into the store or purchase a reusable bag
from the NEX.
