On the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, VAW-117 conducted flyovers at
both Naval Base Ventura County, where 850 motorcyclists departed for the Ride to the Flags, and
Pepperdine University, their destination. Here, 2,977 American flags cover the lawn at Pepperdine,
one for each innocent life taken 10 years ago. When the flyover was announced and our planes
approached, everyone was just in awe, said VAW-117 Command Master Chief Mark McDonald, who
attended both the Pepperdine event and the kickoff at Point Mugu. Stories, photos, Pages 20-22.

Steelworker 1st Class Charles
Nelson was mowing his lawn at
Naval Base Ventura County
(NBVC), Point Mugu, when his
daughter listened to the missed
phone messages.
Next thing I know, shes run-
ning out saying, Daddy! You
have to come listen to this! You
can save someones life!Nelson
recalled.
Fast forward a year and a half,
and the Nelson family is in Sac-
ramento at a Celebration of Life
party for the 8-year-old boy
whose life Nelson did in fact save,
thanks to his matching bone mar-
row and a generous spirit.
This has been an absolute life-
changing experience, says Nel-
son, formerly with the 30th Naval
Construction Regiment and now
a student in the Construction In-
spector school at the Naval Con-

Are charity car wash events on base environmentally responsible?
Question: Some drains in parking lots I am most
familiar with are marked Only Rain Down This
Drain or Drains to Ocean, No Dumping, plus
sh silhouettes.
This inquiry concerns the parking lot at Hudson
and 23rd Avenue at Naval Base Ventura County,
Port Hueneme, where various fundraising groups
frequently conduct car wash events.
I have not noticed the drains at that location dis-
playing any special markings. I would like to know
if in fact those storm drains have any provision to
separate the graywater and suds runoff from the
car-washing that goes on there.
Does runoff from car washing get recycled, as
with some commercial car washes? Should only rain
go through the parking lot drains?
Your answer will inform my decision of whether
to patronize any future fund-raising events involving
car-washing on base, or opt to use a commercial car
facility off base that is environmentally responsible.
Answer: Thank you for your question and ob-
servation of the missing markings from the storm
drains on 23rd Avenue at Port Hueneme. Our Public
Works team will move forward with putting in the
appropriate signage.
The storm drains adjacent to the designated
charity car wash areas are tted with a valve that
controls ow to the storm water conveyance system.
During a charity car wash event, the valve is in the
closed position and the runoff is retained onsite to
allow time for evaporation.
NBVCs Environmental staff has also provided
direction to charity car wash organizers to use bio-
degradable soaps in order to minimize any impacts
to the environment. w

In what Job Fair Coordinator Dave Oe-
hldrich called proof that there are jobs
out there,41 employers and nine schools
set up recruiting booths at the Naval Base
Ventura County (NBVC) Fleet and Fam-
ily Support Center on Thursday, Sept. 8.
And in another sign of the times, 1,107
job-seekers showed up.
Open only to those with base access, the
NBVC Job Fair had the largest turnout
yet. Two job fair have been held on base
each year since 2007.
I think our job fairs keep growing be-
cause we have a skilled workforce here,
and of course employers want to fill their
jobs with people who have experience,
Oehldrich said. Members of the military
and their families are accustomed to doing
what it takes, and employers want people
like that in the workplace. Employers want
people who can do the job, and thats why
they are here.
The 41 employers were looking to fill
positions ranging from security and driv-
ers to engineers and information technol-
ogy specialists.
The nine military-friendly schools gath-
ered a large number of prospective stu-
dents as well.
The next NBVC Job Fair is set for
Thursday, Feb. 2.

It is flu season again, and Naval Branch
Health Clinic (NBHC) Port Hueneme will
be giving family members and eligible
beneficiaries influenza vaccines starting
Oct. 11 at the NBHC Port Hueneme.
Vaccinations will be provided to all
military personnel, dependents, retirees,
mission essential or mission critical De-
fense Department (DoD) civilians and
contract employees. Depending on vac-
cination availability, vaccinations may also
be given to other DoD civilians.
In November and December, NBHC
Port Hueneme will hold several commu-
nity influenza shot clinics in front of the
Port Hueneme Commissary and Point
Mugu Navy Exchange. Exact dates will
be announced.
The influenza vaccine is a one-dose
combo of seasonal influenza and H1N1
virus strains that will be given either in
mist (nasal) or injectible (shot).
While everyone 6 months and older
should get a flu vaccine each flu season,
its especially important that the following
groups get vaccinated either because they

Could you use a weekend away, maybe
to recharge your batteries? Perhaps youd
like time away with your service member
to reconnect, to refresh your love affair?
I dont know about you, but Ive been
around since this war began, and a get-
away is what many of us need.
Now, before you say, Sure but the bud-
get doesnt provide for that, I have a re-
source an opportunity for free retreats
just for you.
Did you know there is a program
through the chaplains office that sponsors
totally free retreats? CREDOthe Chap-
lains Religious Enrichment Development
Operation, sometimes called the Spiritual
Fitness Center is a retreat program de-
signed to help participants move from
where we are to where we want to be.
These retreats are spiritual in nature but,
well, they are not for Bible thumping.
CREDOprovides retreats in three main
areas: personal growth, marriage growth
and teambuilding. These weekend retreats
are facilitated by seasoned and trained
chaplains who provide a guided discussion
within a trusting and accepting environ-
ment. These retreats provide an opportu-
nity to focus on yourself, your marriage
or your team while rejuvenating your
mind, body and spirit.
My husband and I attended a CREDO
marriage retreat a few years ago. The re-
treat provided the perfect opportunity for
us to reconnect and be away together after
deployment. Our retreat was held at a
beautiful hotel in our geographical area
and included all meals and materials. All
I had to do was pack our bag and show
up.
After deployment, a homeport change
and yard period, this retreat was exactly
what the doctor ordered.
We were particularly impacted by the
opportunity to not only work through a
proven program to enhance our relation-
ship, but the undistracted time away to
focus on each other was worth its weight
in gold. We still look at that weekend as
a B-12 shot to our marriage in the midst
of a demanding season of life.
Each retreat is about 48 hours in dura-
tion, typically running from Friday eve-
ning to Sunday afternoon and includes
lodging, meals and materials. In some lo-
cations transportation to and from the
retreat location is also provided.
Personal growth retreats, like the mar-
riage and team-building retreats, offer
individuals an opportunity to explore their
faith, their spirituality, face issues and
grow.
Many CREDO retreats offer follow-on
support groups to facilitate further growth
and development of those looking to con-
tinue the experience at home.

Chaplains programs help marriages, teams build and grow
Active-duty married couples who
feel they need to get away and focus
on their relationship are invited to a
free Marriage Enrichment Retreat,
scheduled for Oct. 21-23 at the Resi-
dence Inn by Marriott at River Ridge
in Oxnard.
Sponsored by the Naval Base Ven-
tura County Religious Ministry
Team, the event begins with dinner
at 6:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 21, and ends
at noon Sunday, Oct. 23. In between,
couples will learn principles to en-
hance their marital relationship and
handle inevitable conflicts, and theyll
learn to strengthen spiritual, emo-
tional, psychological and physical
aspects of their commitment.
Anyone with a valid active duty ID
card is welcome to attend with their
spouse.

tion, call the Port Hueneme Seabee
Chapel at 982-4358.

Schools can use every cent they get.
The state of California has continued
to cut the budget, and schools are doing
what they can to succeed regardless.
Soon, many students will bring home a
form that could allow your childs school
to receive additional, much-needed fund-
ing. The form will ask if you live or work
on federal property and ask a few more
questions to gather information. This data
is used by the district to apply for supple-
mental funding for federally connected
children.
This form, the Federal Survey Card, will
go out during the first few weeks in Oc-
tober. It applies to active-duty and the
reserve component and federal civilian
workers. See the letter belowsent out Aug.
31 supporting your participation in the
federal survey:
To all Military Families of Navy Region
Southwest,
Aquality education is one of the great-
est gifts we can give our children. Becom-
ing actively involved in their education is
an essential ingredient for success. Studies
tell us that a parents involvement in school
has a direct positive effect on a childs
academic success. The more intensively
parents are involved in their childrens
learning, the greater the achievement.
Another very simple way that you, as
parents, can work toward quality educa-
tion in the public schools is to complete
and return the Federal Survey Card your
child will be bringing home in the early
part of October. By investing a few min-
utes of your time to complete this card,
you allowyour school to accurately report
the number of military dependents en-
rolled. This important data is the only way
that our schools are able to qualify for
Federal Impact Aid funding. Unfortu-
nately, the past return rates have been low.
Your help is needed to turn this around.
By returning the Federal Survey Card,
school districts will be able to receive fund-
ing fromthe federal government through
the Impact Aid Program. The Impact Aid
Program is designed to directly compen-
sate local school districts for: (1) local
revenue lost due to the presence of feder-
ally owned, and therefore tax-exempt,
property and (2) costs incurred due to
federally-connected students, such as
the children of armed services personnel
working at a nearby military base. Unlike
most other forms of educational assis-
tance, Impact Aid disburses roughly $1.3
billion annually in unrestricted federal
funds directly to local school districts
rather than through state agencies.
Everyone is aware of the fiscal chal-
lenges facing our schools and the negative
affects these challenges have on our chil-
drens education. Your participation is the
only way we can ensure that our schools
receive the proper amount of federal aid
dollars. Alowreturn rate will result in the
loss of millions of federal dollars that
could otherwise benefit our local schools
and our childrens education.
Working together at home, at school and
on funding issues, we will prepare our
children for a successful future.
Sincerely,
W.D. French,
Rear Admiral, U.S. Navy
Please take the time to complete this
relatively simple form. Currently, the three
school districts in our local community
that send these surveys home are Ocean
View School District, Hueneme Elemen-
tary School District, and Pleasant Valley
School District. If your children attend
any school within these school districts,
please be on the lookout for the form, ask
the teacher if you have not seen it past the
third week in October, and complete and
return it.
If you have any questions regarding Impact
Aid or any K-12 education related questions,
please contact the NBVC school liaison
officer at 989-5211 or monica.james@navy.

The immortal words of Oscar Ham-
merstein inspire us today with their truth:
My heart will be blessed with the sound
of music.
From the popular tunes we enjoy, to
sacred hymns, holiday music and patri-
otic songs of every nation, we are a world
of music lovers.
Hearing even just a fewstrains of a song
from our youth seems to transport us to
another time and place. Music evokes
memories, lifts spirits and inspires good
deeds.
No one can deny the immense power in
music. Yet if you look at its components,
from a stirring masterpiece to a simple
jingle, all music is made from variations
on just a few notes.
Throughout history, composers have
used seemingly infinite combinations of
a limited set of sounds to soothe a crying
infant, to express romantic love, to rally
troops, to honor heroes, to worship and
to express the feelings of the heart. What
a miracle it is that so much power can
come from something so simple.
We are not so different fromthose notes
ourselves. Individually we may seem or-
dinary, but each of us contributes unique-
ly to the groups we join and the causes we
support. To leave out any one of us would
be like denying a composer the use of one
note.
Whether its in our families, our work,
our neighborhoods or our countries, we
make the most beautiful music when we
unite with others in good causes. Just as
one note alone doesnt become a song
until it is joined by others, so we cannot
make a symphony of love and caring un-
til we invite others into our efforts. Thats
when the masterpiece unfolds.
It only takes the efforts of a few, but the
outcome can truly be magnificent.
Only together can notes transform into beautiful music

Bible study group
meets Wednesdays
By Andrea Howry
Lighthouse editor
Nearly a dozen volunteers from Naval
Base Ventura County showed up at Ven-
tura Countys food bank on Friday, Sept.
9, to help sort non-perishables that 150
local agencies will distribute to the coun-
tys needy.
Organized by Religious Ministries, the
community relations event touched the
heart of Bob Hussey, chief operating of-
ficer of Food Share.
As much as these people do for our
country, to then turn around and come
back here and help all over again, its just
great, Hussey said.
Hussey has worked with volunteers from
the base before.
Theyre all wonderful,he said. Nine-
ty-nine percent of the time theyve sorted
everything perfectly. Theyre attentive to
making sure they get it right.
The volunteers opened bags of donated
food, checked expiration dates, then put
edible items on a conveyor belt. Cereals
were picked up for the cereal box,
canned meats went into another box,
canned vegetables in another and so
on.
The filled boxes were then taken to a
warehouse where charitable organiza-
tions can select them for distribution
to their clients.
This way, they know what theyre
getting, Hussey explained.
Logistics Specialist 1st Class Jose
Campos Flores, with Naval Supply Sys-
tems Command in Port Hueneme, said
this was his third volunteer project this
year. He helped clean up Marina Park
in Ventura, and he helped paint a barn
at some stables in Ojai that are home
to a horse therapy program designed
for veterans with disabilities.
I like giving my time to come out
and volunteer, he said.

ular with youngsters and parents
pushing strollers, started last.
The half marathon became a
battle of the locals, with Aaron
Sharp, 31, of Port Hueneme, a
graduate of Santa Clara High
School, coming in just ahead of
Venturas Josh Spiker, 29, a grad-
uate of Ventura High.
Sharp finished with a time of
1:08:30. Spiker, who won last
years Wounded Warrior Half
Marathon but is coming off a
six-month hiatus, came in at
1:09:15, about two minutes slow-
er than his time last year. Both
are trying to make the Olympic
marathon team.
Finishing first in the 5K was
Lincoln Manning, 40, of Moor-
park, with a time of 17:58.
Hector Jimenez Jr., 9, finished
the Military Mile first with a time
of 8:25.
Military tributes were every-
where in the crowd, from hand-
painted T-shirts to homemade
signs to a Tillman jersey, worn in
honor of Patrick Tillman, the
Arizona Cardinals player who
quit the NFL to join the Army
Rangers and was killed in Af-
ghanistan in 2004.
It was just a year ago that
NBVC was being considered as
a training site for the Navys
wounded warriors; since then,
several training camps have been
held on base and the Navy earned
several gold medals in Mays
Warrior Games in Colorado
Springs, Colo.
I cant believe its only been a
year, said Will Wilson, who co-
ordinates athletic programs for
the Navys wounded, ill and in-
jured. It seems like weve all
known each other for years.
Thats a sign of a good friend-
ship.

NMCRS
Since its beginning in 1904, the Navy-
Marine Corps Relief Society (NMCRS)
has relied on volunteers to achieve the
organizations goal of helping Sailors and
Marines meet unforeseen financial emer-
gencies and manage their resources. In fact,
since it was founded, NMCRS has seen its
volunteer roster expand from 19 to more
than 3,500, both ashore and afloat a
jump reflecting the increased demand for
the Societys services.
But if you think volunteering for
NMCRS involves only stuffing envelopes
and answering phones, you couldnt be
more mistaken!
NMCRSvolunteers come fromall walks
of life andhave a rainbowof different types
of skills to offer. Ages range from6 to 106,
and each person is valued for the particu-
lar talents they have to offer. The surprise,
says NMCRS director of volunteer sup-
port, Barb Sheffer, is how wonderfully
diverse those talents are, and howboth the
organization and the volunteer benefit!
Eachvolunteer brings their ownthought
patterns, their own strengths, and a new
vision, Sheffer says. Having that diver-
sity only helps us serve the client better.
For instance, sometimes the volunteers
in their 20s can relate better to clients of
the same age, just as the volunteer who is
the spouse of a service member with years
of active duty can better understand a
situation faced by the widow of a Sailor
or Marine.
Its all about empowerment and match-
ing the skills to the clients needs, according
to Sheffer.
We provide our volunteers with the
tools and training to do the job that fulfills
their desire to serve helping others, she
said. Coordinating the mission with the
skill set is so important to helping our vol-
unteers reach their own goals whether
its building another skill for their rsum,
gaining the confidence needed for a future
job interview, doing something of value,
or making a difference in the lives of our
Sailors and Marines.
The benefit to the Society, Sheffer says,
is immeasurable.
Volunteers are helping to keep us cur-
rent by bringing the latest life skills to the
workplace,she said. Our volunteer work-
force is leading us in directions our found-
ers never anticipated! Those skill sets help
us stay relevant to the service member by
allowing us to meet them where they are.
In a very real way, our volunteers help us
see and prepare for the future.
The result is a dedicated cadre of indi-
viduals who have embraced the organiza-
tion and its mission, resulting in a razor-
sharp focus on Sailors, Marines, and their
families in other words, todays
NMCRS.

NMCB 40
Seabees from Naval Mobile Construc-
tion Battalion (NMCB) 40 provided con-
tinuing support during a recent ongoing
community relations project at Parkview
Elementary School.
Ten Seabees volunteered their time on
Aug. 12 to create two new baseball dia-
monds in the large grass field on the school
grounds as well as resurface the track that
encircles the field itself.
The kids are really enjoying what the
Seabees did, said Parkview Principal
Heidi Haines, who started this relationship
with NMCB40 on the battalions previous
deployment to Afghanistan when the stu-
dents sent more than 1,400 Valentine cards
and well wishes to the deployed troops
and also greeted them on their return.
Parkviewsupported us on our deploy-
ment, sending us care packages and cards,
so this was a really great way to say thank
you and to give back., said project vol-
unteer Construction Electrician 1st Class
Bryce Stenholm.
More than 100 Seabees showed up ear-
lier in the year to cook lunch for and play
with the students in a previous commu-
nity relations project.
Haines said the school intends to keep
this relationship going and has adopted
NMCB 4 on its current deployment.

Its been more than a de-
cade since Naval Base Ven-
tura County fielded a youth
swim team, and now thats
about to change.
Seventeen children rang-
ing in age from 7 to 17
and with all different levels
of swimming proficiency
have signed up for the
base swim team, The Seals.
Registration takes place all
year.
Its a year-round pro-
gram, so kids can sign up
at any time, said Brett
Lane, youth sports and fit-
ness coordinator for Child
Youth Programs.
Lane and Aquatics Di-
rector Gerry Legaspi put
on two orientation sessions
in late August, with each
attracting more than two
dozen youngsters. Actual
team sign-ups began Sept.
6.
Theres a lot of enthusi-
asmhere,Lane said, refer-
ring to both the young com-
petitors and their
instructors. Were teaching
these youngsters how to
swim competitively while
having fun. We want to set
them up for success.
The only prerequisite for
the swim team is to be able
to swim 100 yards. After
that, lessons are tailored to
each swimmers need.
It could be overall stroke
refinement improving
efficiency, Lane said. It
could be goal-setting. It
could be endurance. It
could be gaining the confi-
dence to actually swim
competitively.
Melissa Ramirez, the
sexual assault prevention
and response coordinator
for the base, enrolled 13-
year-old Alex and 8-year-
old Madeline, even though
each has different skill sets
in the water.
For Alex, this is a good
opportunity to get him ac-
tive, Ramirez said. For
Madeline, Imhoping shell
gain the skills she needs to
be more confident in the
water.
Judith Villanueva en-
rolled her 7-year-old son,
Deegan, in the hopes hell
become a strong swimmer
wholl make a difference for
The Seals.
We havent had a team
since the mid-1990s, so this
is great, said Villanueva,
whose spouse is a chief hos-
pital corpsman currently
serving on Diego Garcia.
Lanes goal is to have the
teamready for its first meet
in early November, and hes
already signed the team up
for a Dec. 3 one-day meet
in Ventura County.
Of the many youth
sports Lane has introduced
to the base since starting
this job nearly a year ago
flag football and surf-
ing, among them this is
the first one thats com-
petitive. But unlike some
youth coaches who foster
a win at all costsattitude,
hes not taking the compe-
tition aspect too serious-
ly.
This program is de-
signed to give kids a chance
to compete in an environ-
ment that isnt so intimi-
dating, he said. Its just
another flavor of athletics
they get to experience.

The Civil Air Patrol is the civilian
auxiliary of the U.S. Air Force. Re-
sponsible for performing more than
95 percent of all missing aircraft
searches within the continental Unit-
ed States, the Civil Air Patrol is also
tasked with encouraging aerospace
education and offers an excellent ca-
det program for girls and boys ages
11 and 18.
Formed just before World War II,
the Civil Air Patrol was created to
patrol coastal waters in the U.S. for
enemy submarines. In 1948, it became
the official civilian auxiliary of the
U.S. Air Force, responsible for land-
based search and rescue.
Today the role of the Civil Air Pa-
trol is changing yet again to take on
Homeland Security missions and oth-
er classified operations.
Composite Squadron 61s Aug. 2
visit to VAW-116 included tours of the
Sun King hangar, an E-2C Hawkeye
and the E-2C simulator. Lt. Kyle Kre-
isher of the Sun Kings backed up the
pilots and cadets in the co-pilot seat
as they launched from a Nimitz-class
aircraft carrier in the simulator.
The visit also afforded the cadets,
most of whom plan to become mili-
tary aviators, a chance to ask VAW-
116 pilots and naval flight officers
about careers in military aviation.
The cadets were very much engaged
throughout the visit, said Lt. Cmdr.
Lawrence Nance, who organized the
event. They all asked tons of ques-
tions and really enjoyed seeing the
aircraft up close.
The whole point of the visit was
to expose them to naval aviation, es-
pecially since we are celebrating our
centennial in 2011. If one of those
cadets either joins the Navy or per-
haps becomes a naval aviator some-
day, then well know we made a dif-
ference.

More than 200 people paid tribute to
the U.S. Armed Forces near the eve of the
10th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001,
terrorist attacks as the Oxnard Chamber
of Commerce held its 14th annual Military
Appreciation Dinner on Friday, Sept. 9.
Five Sailors from Naval Base Ventura
County (NBVC) were among the 10 ac-
tive-duty members of the military honored
that evening during a dinner and ceremo-
ny at the Courtyard Marriott in Oxnard.
Ventura County Supervisor Kathy Long,
whose district includes much of Naval
Base Ventura County, gave the keynote
speech and thanked the many military
members in the audience and their fami-
lies, as well as the honorees, for all they
do.
We are forever grateful,she said. We
owe a debt we can never repay.
Each honoree then came up to receive
an award. The first to be recognized was
Construction Electrician 1st Class Leon-
ardo Calderon of the 31st Seabee Readi-
ness Group. Calderon, who would be pro-
moted to chief a few days later, was the
Navys 2010 Sailor of the Year, the first
Seabee to receive the honor.
Were just doing what we do best, he
explained to the audience.
Other members of the Navy recognized
that night were:
Construction Electrician 1st Class
(Seabee Combat Warfare) WilliamL. Cap-
pel, Naval Mobile Construction Battalion
(NMCB) 3.
Cappel echoed Calderons comments.
This is our job, and we enjoy it for
the most part, he said. This is our life,
and we dont expect credit for any of it
its just our job. So thank you for taking
the time to do this.
Construction Mechanic 1st Class (Sea-
bee Combat Warfare) WilliamE. Barbieri,
Naval Construction Training Center,
NBVC Port Hueneme.
Barbieri volunteers at Las Posas Elemen-
tary School, something he called a re-
fresher course.
These first graders are smarter than this
guy, he said.
He thanked his wife for being support-
ive and proud of me and for giving me a
beautiful son.
Builder 2nd Class (Seabee Combat
Warfare) Adam D. Kortmeyer, NMCB
40.
Kortmeyer thanked his commanding
officer, command master chief and fiance
for attending the ceremony.
Hoo-ray 40! he called out as he re-
ceived his award.

After sevenmonths, Cmdr. Kumar
Atarthi could finally have more than
cyber communications with his wife,
Kelli, and children Kaitlyn, 14, and
Kristopher, 10.
Atarthi was one of 20 pilots and
naval flight officers reunited with his
family Wednesday, Sept. 7, as Car-
rier Airborne CommandandControl
Squadron 113 (VAW-113), known as
the Black Eagles, flewback to Naval
Base Ventura County, Point Mugu.
The rest of the squadron 121
Sailors returned to the base the
next day via bus.
Its beena long deployment,said
Atarthi, the squadrons executive of-
ficer. Im very happy to be here.
The squadron has spent the past
sevenmonths supportingalliedcoali-
tion forces in the Western Pacific/
NorthArabianSeaaboardUSSRon-
aldReagan(CVN76) while attached
to Carrier Air Wing 14. Missions in-
cludedsurface surveillance coordina-
tion, air interdiction offensive and
defensive counter air control and
searchandrescue airborne coordina-
tion and communications relay.
In addition, the USS Reagan was
the first to arrive and begin humani-
tarian assistance and disaster relief
efforts after the 9.0 earthquake and
ensuing tsunami struck the coast of
northern Japan.
In all, the squadron flew104 com-
bat missions, compiling a total of
1,550 hours flown.
This was the longest sevenmonths
ever, Lt. Dave Oechslein told his fi-
ance, Cara Kappler, moments after
their reunion.
But they might not be his most dif-
ficult.
Nowyoucanbe the full-time wed-
ding coordinator,Kappler toldhim,
smiling.

NFELC Public Affairs Office
The Naval Facilities Expeditionary Lo-
gistics Centers (NFELC) lead in-service
engineer for the Seabees Elevated Cause-
way System-Modular (ELCAS M) re-
cently returned froma visit to Amphibious
Construction Battalion 2 (ACB 2) in Lit-
tle Creek, Va.
Knut Aakhus, who works out of
NFELC at Naval Base Ventura County,
Port Hueneme, spent a week in August
with ACB 2 Seabees, providing them en-
gineering support as they trained to deploy
the ELCAS.
The ELCAS is a portable causeway, or
pier, that enables a task force to receive
and ship supplies nearly anywhere in the
world, without a usable seaport.
ELCAS is almost halfway through its
planned lifecycle, so its pretty tried-and-
true by now,Aakhus explained. But the
sheer immensity of its scale doesnt allow
it to be used very often, so we have to
capitalize on every opportunity to make
in-person observations about the health
of the equipment and identify possible
improvements. Its important that we give
the users a chance to explain first-hand
what they feel is working well and what
isnt attending the training exercise is
by far the best way to gather that sort of
direct, thorough feedback.
Created in 1992, the ELCAS is made
from heavy steel and built-in sections, or
pontoons. The sections are held in place
with lengthy steel pylons that are driven
into the seabed with a crane. The cause-
way can support a task forces heavy
equipment and containers they need to
bring ashore during exercises and mis-
sions.
The Seabees realize the value of
NFELCs engineering contributions to
the ELCAS, according to ACB 2 Com-
manding Officer Capt. Joe Grealish.
While the Seabees doing the actual
construction are justified in taking pride
and credit for their terrific work,he said,
it bears mentioning that we depend heav-
ily on the brilliance and determination of
the professionals at NEPO and NFELC
to bring the ELCAS system into place.

ing Commands Expeditionary Program

On a dry and dusty hill overlooking
a green river valley, the Seabees from
Naval Mobile Construction Battalion
(NMCB) 4s Water Well Team battle the
elements, austere conditions, a round-
the-clock schedule and even their own
equipment to be able to bring potable
water and a higher quality of life to the
Marines at Patrol Base (PB) Alcatraz,
Helmand Province, Afghanistan.
With the odds seemingly stacked
against them, the teams officer-in-
charge easily identified their key to suc-
cess:
The professionalism of the crews!
said Ensign Richard Forney.
NMCB 4 deployed in June out of Na-
val Base Ventura County, Port Huen-
eme. After completing a well at Forward
Operating Base Robinson, the Seabees
loaded up their equipment and supplies
and convoyed to PB Alcatraz. There,
they constructed their own compound
where the well is being drilled includ-
ing unloading and setting up the equip-
ment drilled their own construction
well, needed to build the permanent one,
and put up barriers around the perim-
eter, all while in full battle rattle.
By mid-August, the team had already
drilled to a depth of 900 feet and, with
600 feet to go, they were looking for-
ward to completing the well and return-
ing to Camp Leatherneck for refit.
When we get to Camp Leatherneck,
the drilling rig is going to get a complete
overhaul; the rig needs a lot of TLC!
said Construction Mechanic 1st Class
Travis Allison.
Forney said the single greatest ob-
stacle the team overcame was the drill-
ing rig itself.
It is an old rig in need of mainte-
nance, he said. Our mechanics are
doing an excellent job keeping it run-
ning, keeping it alive.
The Water Well Team works 12-hour
shifts, seven days a week. They cannot
stop drilling once the well has begun.
Drilling the well is extreme work. The
first six steels (the pipes that make up
the shaft of the drill) are 1,100 pounds.
Each steel after those is almost 300
pounds, and they have to be lifted into
place and attached to the steels already
in the hole by the derrick handler and
the driller. All the while, the WORMMs
(worker, oiler, racker, mud and mainte-
nance) monitor and adjust the condition
of the mud pumped down the shaft
to cool the drill bit, carry away the cut-
tings and seal the walls of the hole.
When a drill bit gets worn down, it
all has to come back up out of the hole,
the steels racked, the bit replaced and
it all goes back down an exhausting
process.
The WORMMs also keep the rig run-
ning, muck out the settling tanks, assist
in lifting the steels into place and run
the mud lab. None of the work can stop
or be put off, as each job is necessary
for the other tasks to be completed.
With the non-stop schedule and ardu-
ous labor, the team chooses to dwell on
the positive aspects of their roles.
[The best part of being on Water
Well is learning new things. Ive never
done stuff like this before, said Con-
struction Mechanic Constructionman
Tomas Gonzalez.
Construction Mechanic 3rd Class Su-
sanne Salerno spends much of her shift
running the mud labs.
I stay busy on my own program work-
ing the mud labs constantly, she said.
The Water Well Team is divided into
two crews, called towers, and each
tower has a tower leader. When the two
leaders were asked about the best part
of being a tower leader, Construction
Mechanic 1st Class Jeremy Cabanilla
said, Working with my troops and pass-
ing down knowledge to my replace-
ments.
I can make sure to spread the work
evenly to take care of my guys! said
Utilitiesman 2nd Class Luis Esparza.
Having a well on site frees the base
from depending on water shipments,
saves lives because fewer convoys are on
the road, and is estimated to save
$490,000 per month in bottled water
costs. It makes it possible to supply run-
ning water to showers, bathroom facili-
ties and food preparation areas. Time
spent in a camp using bottled water to
brush teeth, shower, shave, wash and
cook makes one grateful for the simple
gift of running water.
Said Equipment Operator 1st Class
David Cobbel, I love being able to bring
a higher quality of life and health to our
military members.

NMCB 3
Forty Seabees fromNaval Mobile Con-
struction Battalion (NMCB) 3 recently
completed a weeklong field training exer-
cise (FTX) in Fort Hunter Liggett in order
to improve their combat skills and mastery
of tactics.
The training, called Squad Leader FTX,
consisted of one week of classroom in-
struction and one week of training in the
field.
The field training is demanding due to
high heat levels, rugged landscape and
long hours in heavy gear.
The first portion of training was land
navigation, where the students used their
classroom training to practice navigating
up and down steep hills in order to reach
multiple checkpoints.
I think the land navigation training has
been beneficial, since I may use that skill
sometime down the road, said Utilities-
man 2nd Class (SCW) Evan Toll, one of
NMCB3s squad leaders. This is my first
squad leader field training exercise, and
all of it has been great training so far.
The students were evaluated throughout
all of the practical applications. The eval-
uators consisted of members fromthe 31st
Seabee Readiness Group (SRG) as well as
members fromthe U.S. Marine Corps and
U.S. Army.
I have been on seven squad leader ex-
ercises as an evaluator said Builder 2nd
Class (SCW) Cory Cummins, from the
31st SRG. I feel that this training is a
huge benefit to those who go through it.
Overall, individuals will be taught the
skills they will need when they go into a
combat environment.
Another phase of the field training con-
sisted of different squads conducting se-
curity patrols, where they go out and
navigate through the terrain and inevitably
get into a firefight using M-16s and blank
rounds against another training squad or
a group of instructors posing as hostile
forces.
This is my first squad leader exercise
and it is hard especially due to the high
heat, said Construction Mechanic 2nd
(SCW) David Tacey, a trainee attending
the course. I feel that this training will
give me what I need to be a good squad
leader, and it will give me knowledge to
pass on to junior troops so they will be
prepared during the battalion field train-
ing exercise.
NMCB 3 will conduct a battalion-wide
field exercise in December.
The training concluded with squad lead-
ers getting hands-on practice setting up
and activating anti-personnel claymore
mines as well as learning how to throw
hand grenades.
The squad leader field training exercise
is extremely challenging, said Gunnery
Sgt. Jose Jacquez, NMCB 3s military ad-
viser. Alot of these guys have never done
this, and they come here and get great
knowledge for themselves and also to pass
on to others so that they are ready if they
are ever called upon to go into harms way
to do their jobs.
NMCB 3 is homeported in Port Huen-
eme and is preparing for a spring deploy-
ment.

Motorcycles line up in front of Building 1, as their owners prepare to depart on
the Ride to the Flags.
By MC2 (SW) Karalie Moore
Naval Base Ventura County Public
Affairs
and Andrea Howry
Lighthouse editor
About 850 motorcycles lined
the road leading to Building 1 at
Naval Base Ventura County on
Sunday, Sept. 11, as bikers and
Sailors shared memories of Sept.
11, 2001, and paid respects to
those who died that day and in
the ensuing wars in Iraq and Af-
ghanistan.
Afterward, they left for a two-
hour drive on Ventura Countys
backroads, the fourth annual
Ride to the Flags at Pepperdine
University in Malibu.
Motorcyclists began registering
for the Ride to the Flags outside
the Las Posas Gate at 10 a.m.,
then rode onto the base for a
commemoration ceremony.
As the Los Angeles-based band
Regal played rock on a stage set
up in front of Building 1, leather-
clad bikers many wearing red,
white and blue bandanas, POW-
MIA patches and insignia iden-
tifying them as veterans min-
gled with uniformed Sailors.
Among those in the audience
were guitarist Gilby Clarke of
Guns N Roses and actor D.B.
Sweeney.
Shortly after noon, the crowd
of more than 1,000 grew quiet as
a memorial service began. Linda
Brown of the Naval Surface War-
fare Center, Port Hueneme Divi-
sion, sang the National Anthem,
and Cmdr. Stephen Gammon,
chaplain for Navy Mobilization
Processing Site at NBVC Port
Hueneme, led a prayer.
There was a wreath-laying cer-
emony, a rifle salute and a bugler
playing taps.
The bell in front of Building 1
was rung once every 10 seconds
for three minutes, each minute
representing each site that was
attacked 10 years ago. Two E-2C
850 motorcyclists ride

VAW-117 Public Affairs
The sky was clear and the weather was per-
fect when two E-2C Hawkeyes from Carrier
Airborne Command and Control Squadron
117 (VAW-117) flew in close formation over
ceremonies commemorating the 10th anni-
versary of 9/11 at Naval Base Ventura Coun-
ty, Point Mugu, and Pepperdine University
on Sunday, Sept. 11.
The two flyovers were witnessed by more
than 3,000 people, including Deena Burnett
Bailey, the widowof Pepperdine alumnus and
United Flight 93 hero Tom Burnett.
The Wallbangers Command Master Chief
Mark McDonald was present at both ceremo-
nies.
The entire Pepperdine lawn was packed
with civilians, prior military and even a few
celebrities, he said. When the flyover was
announced and our planes approached, ev-
eryone was just in awe.
The flyovers were part of longer ceremonies
that, at Pepperdine, included a showing of
the film United 93, a reading of the names
of 9/11 victims amid a vast display of flags
one for every life lost and a number of
speeches, including one by Bailey.
The importance of the flyover was felt by
the officers flying the aircraft and the Sailors
on the ground who prepared and launched
the planes.
It was a great privilege not only to fly the
two flyovers, but more importantly, it was an
extreme honor to work with the organizers
of the events,said Lt. Cmdr. Jason Fox, who
flewin the lead plane. Although people often
focus on the 10 to 15 seconds of the actual
flyover, more important to me were the count-
less hours spent by the Wallbanger maintain-
ers feverishly preparing not only their own
aircraft, but an aircraft borrowed from a sis-
ter squadron to ensure the memory of those
lost 10 years ago was honored appropriate-
ly.
Lt. Cmdr. Charles Choate, who flew the
wing aircraft, noted, Having spent my entire
career supporting Operation Enduring Free-
dom and overseas contingency operations, it
was a true honor to contribute to the 10th
year remembrance of September 11, 2001.
Airman Jeff Schwarz, a VAW-117 main-
tainer from Bay Shore, N.Y., said, My dad
worked a couple blocks away from the World
Trade Center. I think its kind of cool that we
put in the effort to still remember what hap-
pened that day.
Others had a different perspective.

Faith Omoobajesu hails from Lagos, Nige-
ria.
9/11 affected everyone, even out of the
country, he said. If something could hit
America, it could hit anywhere.
He said he was happy to be able to
support the ceremony and that it was a
way for him to give back.
After 9/11 President Bush made it
possible for me to become a citizen by
joining the U.S. Armed Forces, he
said.
VAW-117 was honored to support this
mission and filled with pride to have it
become such a success.

aircraft flew overhead in tribute.
Capt. Jim McHugh, NBVC command-
ing officer, urged those in attendance to
remember what the day was about.
(This is) a day that we must remember
those who lost their lives at the Pentagon,
and New York, and in a field in Pennsyl-
vania, said McHugh. We also must
remember those who over the past 10 years
have lost their lives to protect us so we
havent been attacked again. And we also
must remember those who, right now, are
deployed away from home to defend our
freedom around the world.
Boatswains Mate 1st Class (EXW/SW)
Murray Willett, of NBVC Port Opera-
tions, remembers that day very clearly.
Ten years ago, I was in bed at four
oclock in the morning in Pearl Harbor
when I got the phone call that started a
really, really long day,said Willett. I was
working at security, so before I even got
another phone call saying Come into
work, I was already putting my uniform
on. My wife said to me Its your day off,
and I told her Not anymore, its not.
Willett said he felt privileged to fly one
of the large flags on the back of his mo-
torcycle for the event.
McHugh said it was an honor and a
privilege to host Ride to the Flags for the
second year in a row.
For me, I was in the Pentagon that day,
and this day just brings back memories of
many emotions, said McHugh. Memo-
ries of friends and colleagues who lost
their lives that day. For my family, for my
wife, she was seven months pregnant and
worked across the street from the Penta-
gon. She sawthat building explode in front
of her eyes and had no idea where I was
in that large building. Its an emotional
day for my family, one that we always will
remember, and one Im sure that (every-
one) will always remember.
McHugh went on to say that out of the
disaster there came an opportunity for
good.
Its not only a day of mourning a trag-
edy, said McHugh, Its also a day of
celebration, because out of every tragedy,
I believe theres a silver lining. And the
silver lining for this tragedy is that Amer-
ican patriotism was reborn. Each one of
you is a classic example of that patrio-
tism.
Seabees from Naval Mobile Construc-
tion Battalion 3 were on hand at the event
with static displays to explain the use of
some of their equipment to members of
the community.
Its an honor to be out here and being
involved in something like this, said
Equipment Operator 3rd Class (SCW)
Adam Pope, of NMCB 3. We shouldnt
forget the families that were involved.
Hopefully theyre doing better now than
they were 10 years ago.
Also at the event was Operation Grati-
tude, which has sent 700,000 care pack-
ages to deployed military personnel since
2003. Chief Builder Dan McKee of the
31st Seabee Readiness Group took a min-
ute to write a note of thanks to a deployed
service member.
I wanted to tell them, Im proud of
you, he said as he finished a note.

Flu shots available, and this is who should get them

NBVC Public Affairs Office
The Ocean View and Hueneme school
districts, which serve students whose par-
ents are stationed at Naval Base Ventura
County, have each received more than
half a million dollars in grants from the
Department of Defense.
Ocean View School District received
$675,000 and Hueneme Elementary
School District received $540,000 through
the Fiscal Year 2011 Grant Program ad-
ministered by the Department of Defense
Education Activity (DoDEA) Educa-
tional Partnership.
The Department of Defense is strong-
ly committed to ensuring that the children
of military families receive an excellent
education that prepares them for success-
ful careers and to be active contributors
to their communities and the nation,
said Marilee Fitzgerald, DoDEA acting
director. Our partnerships with public
schools serving military-connected fam-
ilies are an important part of that com-
mitment.
The grant to Ocean View School Dis-
trict was used for the Science and Math
Alive Project. The purpose of the project
is to increase student achievement and
interest in science, math, technology and
engineering through the use of up-to-date
technology tools and to improve instruc-
tion by providing teachers with the ma-
terials and training needed to prepare
students for future careers.
The Hueneme Elementary School grant
was used to implement Academic Success
with Interactive Technology (ASIT), a
comprehensive program to increase stu-
dent performance in language arts and
technology literacy. ASITwill target more
than 900 students in kindergarten through
sixth grade at Richard Bard and Huen-
eme elementary schools.

More than two dozen volunteers helped pick
up trash and debris along the beaches at Naval
Base Ventura County, Point Mugu, on Sunday,
Aug. 28, collecting 19 large bags at Surfers Beach
alone.
The cleanup was sponsored by Morale, Welfare
and Recreation, which also sponsored the Naval
Base Ventura County Surfers Contest presented
by Quiksilver the weekend prior.
Lead lifeguard Drew Isais said surfers made up
a big part of the volunteer crew.
We only had eight people signed up, and when
we started, a group of surfers came over and asked
what was going on, he said. They jumped right
in and helped.
Surfers are really cool guys,he added. Theyre
adamant about keeping the beaches clean.
Among the finds that day were a hatch cover
from a boat and an empty can of an energy drink
that had been featured at the surfers contest the
2010 surfers contest.

Benets seminar Oct. 5
Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC)
collected nearly 4,000 pounds of food
for hungry families in the local area
during the eight-week Feds Feed Fam-
ilies food drive.
A total of 3,830 pounds was col-
lected at 19 locations on base, with a
third of that coming in on the last week
and during the Sept. 11, 2001, remem-
brance event at NBVC Point Mugu.
Thats awesome, said Lt. Deann
Coleman, staff chaplain at NBVC and
the local Feds Feed Families food drive
organizer. Because NBVC had such
great participation from more than 40
tenant commands, we were able to help
Commander Navy Region Southwest
far exceed its goal.
There were 19 yellow bins scattered
all across the base so people could do-
nate cans and boxes of food.
This is the first year the Department
of Defense has participated in the na-
tional Feds Feed Families drive, the
goal of which is to raise 2 million
pounds of non-perishables nation-
wide.
Feds Feed Families is an Office of
Personnel Management initiative that
requested Department of Defense sup-
port this year, its third annual cam-
paign.
The goal was set high at 2 million
pounds because of the impact of a
series of natural disasters that have de-
pleted charitable resources because of
increased demand.
This years theme is Feeding Fami-
lies One Fed at a Time.

struction Training Center at NBVC, Port
Hueneme.
I feel like weve gained a new family,
added his wife, Liza. They will be in our
lives forever.
When Nelson first listened to the phone
message back in February of 2010 that
his bone marrow was a possible match,
he thought it was someone phishing a
scam trying to get him to reveal person-
al information. He erased the message.
But when he got to work the next
morning, there was an e-mail on his
military computer and another message
on his work phone.
He didnt even remember donating a
sample.
But his wife did. Theyd had their
cheeks swabbed eight years before, back
in San Diego where Nelson was stationed
at the time.
Then I remembered we were donating
blood and they asked if we wanted to be
checked as a possible bone marrowdonor
as well, and we said yes, Nelson said.
Id forgotten all about it. It was all the
way back in 2002, and weve moved four
times since then! How did they even
know where I was?
Because hed submitted a sample
through the Department of Defense C.
W. Bill Young Donor Program, his where-
abouts were always current in the com-
puter system. It took eight years for a
match to pop up.
Donor program workers asked Nelson,
then 33, to undergo more blood tests at
the Naval Branch Health Clinic at Port
Hueneme to see if there was indeed a
match.
One month later they called and said
I was the one, Nelson recalled.
After that, Nelson said, there was no
going back. He felt like he was on a mis-
sion.
In March of 2010, he flew to Wash-
ington, D.C., for an intense physical. In
April, he returned for the actual opera-
tion that would remove a pint of his mar-
row through two holes punctured into
his hip bone, by use of a special hollow
point needle.
Until then, the only medical procedure
hed undergone was some minor ankle
surgery in 2005.
Besides that, Id had some stitches
here and there, he said. But that was
it.
His wife and their youngest child,
Charley, now3, flewto Washington, D.C.
Nelsons mother came to Point Mugu to
watch the couples other two children
Madison, now 9, and Austin, now 6
and their pets.
The Nelsons had planned to take in
some sightseeing while in Washington,
but Nelson was too weak.
My lower back felt like it had been
badly bruised, he said. I felt like an old
man. I was really sore.
It takes about two weeks for the body
to regenerate a pint of bone marrow. The
procedure itself causes microfractures in
the hip bone, so Nelson needed to take
it easy for the next six to eight weeks
no high-impact exercise that could
cause a major break in the bone. At the
30th NCR he worked in the training de-
partment, so there was no impact to his
job assignment. However, he was medi-
cally waived from the PRT for that cycle
and was able to do his own PT at his own
pace, mostly swimming and using the el-
liptical, with light weight training.
After five weeks I felt really good,
Nelson said. At seven weeks I started
running again.
But one thought kept nagging at him:
Someone on this Earth now shared his
immune system, and he was curious.
All we knew was that it was an 8-year-
old boy, Nelson said.
The program allows no personal con-
tact between donor and recipient for the
first year after the transplant. Nelsons
curiosity continued to grow, and when
the one-year-mark hit in April, he con-
tacted the program workers and said he
was interested in meeting the recipient.
The workers passed on the information
to the donor, but Nelson didnt hear any-
thing back.
I figured OK, they dont want to meet
me, and I need to stop letting it bother
me, Nelson said. And then I got an e-
mail.
The two families clicked immediate-
ly.
They were ecstatic, Nelson said. We
talked on the phone several times and
then they stopped by on a trip to Los
Angeles.
The thing that surprised Nelson the
most was that the family didnt live on
the East Coast.
Sacramento is basically just up the
street, he said. The boy underwent the
surgery in San Francisco. Why did I fly
to Washington, D.C., to have the bone
marrow taken out, when they just flew
it back to San Francisco for the trans-
plant?
The family spent several hours with
the Nelsons, then called a few weeks
later and said they wanted to host a Cel-
ebration of Life party. In mid-July, the
Nelsons drove up to Sacramento for what
they thought would be a small get-to-
gether.
There were about 200 people there!
Nelson said. There were family mem-
bers and doctors and nurses. It was amaz-
ing!
And then came the moment Nelson
will never forget a moment he says
was worth every bit of pain and anxiety
he and his family went through:
On July 16, 2011, Jason and Alva Ross
stood on a picnic table in a Sacramento
churchyard and talked about their 8-
year-old son, Jackson. They talked about
his struggles with Down syndrome and
his bravery in fighting off leukemia
and then the disappointment and fear of
learning the leukemia had come back.
And then they introduced the Seabee
from Southern California who had saved
their sons life.

Ventura County, Port Hueneme, attends this summers Celebration of Life party for Jackson
Ross, held by his father, Jason, in Sacramento. With them is Jacksons mom, Alva.
Since the creation of the National Marrow Donor Program in 1986, more than
6 million Americans, including more than 400,000 service members, have registered
as marrow donors.
The program helped save the life of Jackson Ross, an 8-year-old boy from
Sacramento, whose bone marrow matched that of Steelworker 1st Class Charles
Nelson of Naval Base Ventura County, Point Mugu.
Jackson is our inspiration, and Charles is our hero,said Jason Ross, Jacksons
father. He gave our son another chance at life. Thank you just doesn t seem to
be enough. We are forever grateful to Charles. He is now linked to Jackson and
our family forever. What an incredibly selfless act.

NMCB 5
On Aug. 10, a small team of 11 Seabees from Naval
Mobile Construction Battalion (NMCB) 5, one Marine
sergeant and one Air Force senior airman began a journey
toa remote towninwesternDjibouti Dikhil. Their mis-
sion was to relieve NMCB74 and finish a primary school
in the even smaller village of Kontali.
The town of Dikhil has approximately 40,000 people
living in town and the surrounding villages. Our only line
of support was a 2.5-hour convoy fromCamp Lemonnier,
a forward deployed Navy facility in the countrys capital
of Djibouti City. Our mission was clear: Finish the pri-
mary school and work on partnering with the indigenous
population.
The crewknewhowto finish the school, but partnering
with the locals was new to each of us. We quickly figured
out that simple gestures such as saying hello in a local
language would start the process of integrating us into the
community. Being goodneighbors was the key toestablish-
ing good relationships.
The children of Kontali were quick to pick up on our
openness and love for children.
Withina week, a father, worriedfor the healthof his son,
Mohammed, asked us for help. Mohammed had tripped
ona stone three months earlier andhada lacerationonhis
ankle and contusions on his head that were severely in-
fected. The crew, with approval, cleaned his wounds and
dressed them. Mohammed was running a few days later.
It was a great start to building trust between us and the
people of Kontali, but it didnt end there. Soon afterward,
two women from the village were bitten by a snake and
rushed to the local hospital in Dikhil. Upon hearing of
this, several members of the teamdecided pay the women
a visit to wish them a speedy recovery. One of the ladies
who was already under the care of her friend commented
that she could not believe the Americans had come to sim-
ply wish her well. When we left, she claimed her opinion
of Americans had changed completely.
Unfortunately, tragedy was about ready to strike again.
Aneighborhood man passed away fromnatural causes at
the untimely age of 35. Withour translator leading the way,
we went to his sons home to pay our respects. When we
left, he was in tears with gratitude.
The next day, he came by to express his gratitude and
help us to become a part of the community. We decided
to host the event in our team house and break bread to-
gether with a fewof the neighbors also in attendance. On
the day of the lunch, the second day of Eid, we cooked a
large meal, pulled the crew from the jobsite and feasted
with our newly found friends. Both men were retired, one
retired as the major general of the Dikhil province, the
other was retired fromthe exalted position as minister of
energy. We forged new and hopefully lasting friend-
ships.
As the days go by, we have felt a sense of welcoming in
the towns of Dikhil and Kontali. Today, we cannot walk
the streets without receiving greetings and well wishes
from the local populace our new friends.
