Naval Weapons Station (NWS) Charleston’s Navy Exchange (NEX)management and employees were presented the prestigious BinghamAward at a ceremony held at the NWS Charleston NEX, June 15.Charleston placed first in the 20 to 40 million dollar category withmore than 24 million dollars in sales for 2009.
Rear Admiral Steven J. Romano, Commander, Navy ExchangeService Command, was the guest speaker at the ceremony. “This awarddemostrates that you are one of the best Navy Exchanges in the world;
only nine other stores out of 103 can claim this award,” Romano saidto the crowd of NEX employees. “This is like winning an Olympicgold medal.”
Romano added that as he walked through the facility, he noticed fourqualities that led to the Charleston NEX’s success: “You do the basicsright, you make a mature facility look great, you are managed byextraordinary leadership and you have great training.”
General Manager Beth Munoz gave credit to the employees whooperate the store on a daily basis. “This team has always had the nec-essary skills and teamwork in them to win this award,” Munoz said,“and they show it everyday.”
The team includes long time employees Willie Ellis and BerniceMac. Mac has been working at the NEX for 20 years while Ellis hasbeen with the company for 37.
Looking to retire in the near future, Ellis was thrilled to see all thehard work put in by him and his fellow employees has paid off. “It’s avery prestigious award for us,” Ellis said.
Mac added, “This took a lot of team effort, but in the end, it wasworth it. This award is just great for morale and makes us want to keepworking hard.”
The Bingham Award recognizes Navy Exchanges that have demon-strated excellence in customer service, operations and management.The award is named after the late Captain W.H. Bingham, SC, USNR,who was the chief executive of the R.H. Macy’s Company and in 1946was appointed by the Secretary of the Navy to lead an advisory boardfor the establishment of the Navy Exchanges system.

Keeping Low Country Warriors On Course
Thisweek my article is dedicated to theevents that surrounded the base overthe past couple of weeks, some goodand some not so good. As I havealways done in the past, my intentionis to give you the informationstraight and to the point. I have plen-ty of information to pass along, sohere it goes.
Our Navy Exchange received thecoveted Bingham award last week.This is a huge accomplishment.Guest speaker, Commander, NavalExchange Service Command, RearAdmiral Stephen Romano said itbest when he told the crowd, “Thereis southern hospitality and then thereis Charleston southern hospitality.” Icouldn’t agree more. People loveshopping at our Exchange becausethe employees who work there makeit one of the best places to shop in thearea. A huge Bravo Zulu to theemployees of our NEX. We allappreciate the fine job you do.
The NWS Charleston Brig recent-
ly held a ribbon cutting for their newNational Testing Center (NTC). Thisis a major advancement in the wayinmates can work toward their col-lege degrees. The Charleston Brignow houses the only NTC in thecountry in any civilian or militaryprison. As such, the Brig is now ashowcase for the rest of world onhow to prepare inmates for theirreturn to society.
I can hear the concerns, moansand groans from you hard liners.Why do prisoners get to take collegecourses? I have a simple answer.Almost every person incarceratedwill be returned to society at somepoint. We owe it to ourselves to givethese people every tool they need sowhen they are released, they canbecome productive members of thecommunity with less chance of re-offending. People make mistakesand pay for them. After payment ismade, they need a second chance.
Now, let’s talk about this guy whocrashed my gate last week. Cruisingdown Red Bank Rd at about 6:30a.m., this gentleman fell asleep at thewheel. After luckily swerving intothe left lane and avoiding cars enter-ing the gate, he proceeded to hit theoutgoing gate at approximately 60mph, careening off the left retainingwall before landing upside down. Ithink it was hitting the gate that actu-ally woke him up.
Luckily, the driver and all oursecurity staff were unharmed. BravoZulu to the Security Departmentwhich did a fantastic job keeping
morning traffic moving and againduring the afternoon rush hour.
That was the good news.Unfortunately, we also had two sui-cides on base last week. Yes, two ofour shipmates felt that they hadworked themselves into such a deephole that taking their lives was theonly way out. Shipmates, suicide cannever be and should never be anoption. None of us will ever trulyknow why these two young mendecided to take their lives. But, wecan continue to be vigilant aboutlooking out for each other.
There are so many options forhelp when you think you are out ofoptions. We have doctors, and coun-selors and every person’s chain ofcommand is dedicated to ensuringyou get the help you need and medi-cines if necessary that can help youto overcome these thoughts. Losinga clearance, or failing an exam is notworth taking your life. If you havesuicidal thoughts, get help. If youknow a shipmate who isn’t on hisgame and is acting strangely, seekout help for him. Help me in not let-ting another shipmate slip away.
Lastly, it’s hot, so please drinkplenty of fluids to keep your head inthe game. These 101 days of summerare bearing down on us and we’redoing good.
Take care, CDR Gary Martin

Naval Consolidated Brig prisoners receive education upgradeStory and photo by MC1(SW/AW) Jennifer R. Hudson
Naval Weapons Station Charleston Public Affairs
Naval Consolidated Brig (NAVCONBRIG)Charleston held a ribbon cutting ceremony for the firstNational Testing Center (NTC) for military prisonersaboard Naval Weapons Station (NWS) Charleston,July 14.
The new and improved testing facility will allow mil-
itary prisoners to complete accredited computer-basedcollege level courses vice the normal paper based test-ing, offering 33 different testing areas versus the previ-ous limit of 17.
Established under the sponsorship of Thomas EdisonState College and NWS Charleston, this NTC designa-tion enables a vast improvement in testing capability forprisoners and staff in College Level ExaminationProgram (CLEP), Computer-Based DANTES SubjectStandardized Test Internet Based-Test, ExcelsiorCollege Examination, and Pearson Vue TestingServices.
NAVCONBRIG Charleston test control officer,Sylvia Gilliard, the driving force who first proposed theidea, spent more than two years coordinating the manyadministrative requirements and approvals required forthe NTC. As a direct result, staff personnel and prison-ers will be able to take more tests more quickly withfaster feedback, enhancing their educational opportuni-ties.
According to Gilliard this is the first NTC nationwidethat is located within the confines of a correctional facil-ity—military or civilian.
“This is a great achievement by Ms. Gilliard and oth-ers who provide improved opportunities for our staffand prisoners to enhance their educational opportuni-ties,” said NAVCONBRIG Charleston Commanding
Officer CDR Ray Drake. “Testing capacity is increased,results are immediate, and at no cost—great for ourSailors, Airmen, Soldiers, and Marines.”
“Our job is to prepare them for civilian life. We teachthem life skills, employment skills and then when theydepart our facility we try to help them find a job. Havinga degree can help them,” said Gilliard.
Within the last 18-months, the NAVCONBRIGCharleston has had four personnel leave the correction-al facility with a bachelor’s degree, one of whomreceived a scholarship to continue his education towardhis master’s degree.
Before the NTC, it could take an average of four tosix weeks for a test to be mailed off and graded, makinga student wait for their results. But now, scores can bereceived instantly—within minutes of submitting theirexam.
“The National Testing Center is important for theprisoners to have so that they may earn more collegecredits,” Gilliard continued. “I was elated when the pro-gram finally came because the more that we can do fora prisoner, such as helping them with employment oreducation, the better citizen they will become when theyleave and they will have a lot more to offer the commu-nity. We do not want a prisoner to reoffend and have tocome back, so our goal is to help them so that they seethe different options that are available to them.”

The Military Spouse CareerAdvancement Accounts program willresume Oct. 25, but with some significantchanges to the popular spouse employmentprogram.
Changes include a reduction in theamount of financial aid, a change in thepopulation eligible to receive that aid –from all military spouses to spouses of jun-ior servicemembers — and more robustcounseling services.
These changes bring the program, com-monly known as MyCAA, back to its orig-inal intent of equipping military spouses ofjunior servicemembers with portablecareers, such as in real estate or health care,Clifford Stanley, the undersecretary ofdefense for personnel and readiness, said.The program was launched in November2007 for spouses of junior servicemem-bers, and expanded to all pay grades andprograms of study in March 2009.
“We’re trying to empower, to givespouses in particular, an opportunity to be
immediately impactful as soon as they getinto a community,” Stanley said in an inter-view with the Pentagon Channel andAmerican Forces Press Service. “We wantto make sure they have opportunities towork when they get to a new duty station.”
Officials temporarily halted the pro-gram Feb. 16, pending a top-to-bottomreview, after an enrollment surge over-whelmed the system and caused the pro-gram to nearly reach its budget threshold.The review took time, but officials wantedto ensure they could sustain the programfor the long-term, particularly in light offiscal realities the government is facing,Stanley said.
The previous program offered all spous-es of active duty servicemembers a lifetimebenefit of $6,000 to be used for education.
Under the new parameters, spouses ofjunior servicemembers can apply for amaximum financial benefit of $4,000 forup to three years from the start date of thefirst class, with a $2,000 annual cap,
Stanley explained. Spouses pursuinglicenses or certifications requiring an up-front fee of greater than $2,000 may applyfor a waiver of the annual cap up to themaximum benefit of $4,000, he added.
Financial aid will be limited to spousesof active duty servicemembers in paygrades E-1 to E-5, W1 to W-2 and O-1 toO-2, Stanley said, as well as the spouses ofactivated Guard and Reserve memberswithin those ranks. Spouses of Guard andReserve members must be able to start andcomplete their courses while their sponsoris on Title 10 orders.
Those spouses eligible to receive aidcan use the money to fund associate’sdegrees, licenses and certification pro-grams, not higher degrees. The programwasn’t intended to support bachelor’s andmaster’s degrees, Stanley said. However,he added, spouses pursuing higher degreescan explore a plethora of other educationopportunities — such as scholarships, fed-eral grants and the G.I. Bill — with help
from Military OneSource consultants. Spouses currently enrolled in the pro-
gram can continue participation throughOct. 21, when MyCAA will ramp downand prepare for the Oct. 25 launch. As ofOct. 25, those spouses who fall within theeligible pay grades can continue their pro-gram participation. Spouses who no longerare eligible for financial aid still can partic-ipate by accessing career and educationcounseling services, Stanley said.
To ensure the vitality of the program,Military OneSource counselors willencourage spouses to explore other fund-ing resources, including federal benefits.And staffing levels have been increased tohandle the anticipated call volume andenable more one-on-one counseling withspouses, Stanley said. Officials also willmonitor the program much closer now toensure they can maintain it, he added.

The 2010-11 hunting and fishing sea-son began July 1st. The new seasonstarts with some significant changes inthe policies governing access to huntingand fishing on base and possession offirearms.
To more closely align with U.S. Navyguidelines the category designations forparticipating personnel have beenchanged. Category A access nowincludes all personnel who do not have aDoD Common Access Card (CAC). Thisincludes the general public and DoDretirees. For hunting, Cat A now hasaccess to the Northside and Marringtonareas; for fishing Marrington only. AllCat A personnel will be provided with anannual NWS recreation badge (picturebadge) by Pass and Badge Office follow-ing a successful background check. Thisbackground check and can take up to twoweeks so plan ahead and apply for your
permit at the Outdoor Adventure Center(OAC) well before you actually want tostart hunting or fishing.
Category B access is open to all DoDemployees, military and civilian, holdingCACs (excluding contractors) and theirdependents. Cat B includes all areasauthorized for hunting and fishing:Marrington, Northside, Eastside,Eastside Restricted and Southside.Additionally, Cat B may take Cat A per-sonnel into the Eastside, EastsideRestricted and Southside areas as“guests”. These guests must have anannual NWS recreation badge, aCategory A NWS hunting or fishing per-mit, and all applicable state and federalpermits; one guest per Cat B hunter, threeguests per Cat B fisher. Guests must ridewith their sponsor while on base.
Marrington patron passes (bluebadges) will no longer be issued to non-
DoD personnel who enjoy recreationalopportunities other than hunting andfishing in Marrington. InsteadMarrington users will receive an annualNWS recreation badge issued by the Passand Badge Office, again following a suc-cessful background check of the appli-cant.
With this increased access comessome additional scrutiny. All firearmsused for hunting on WPNSTA Charlestonmust be registered with Security prior toreceiving a NWS hunting permit.Consequently all hunters, including CACholders, will have a waiting periodbetween applying for a permit andreceiving it. Applications and registrationinformation will be completed at theOAC and forwarded to the Pass andBadge office. Once the backgroundcheck is complete the Pass and Badgestaff will call applicants who will then
receive a copy of their firearms registra-tion if hunting and a NWS recreationbadge if they do not have a CAC. Theythen return to the OAC for their WPNS-TA Charleston hunting and/or fishingpermit.
The final major change is that a NWSfishing permit is now $7. Hunting per-mits remain $20 with an option to buy acombo hunting/fishing permit for $25.
These are the most significantchanges in the hunting and fishing pro-gram in a number of years. Some ofthese were prompted by the base’s on-going realignment with the U.S. AirForce to be official Oct. 1, 2010. As wecontinue to re-adjust during our transi-tion to “Joint Base Charleston -Weapons” we can expect that there willbe additional changes and challenges inrecreation programs and many otherareas of activity at Joint Base Charleston.

Without history, we would be eternally bound tomake the same mistakes over and over again becausehistory teaches us what does and does not work. It alsoshows us changes in the way that people think aboutissues. For that reason, if I could travel back in time Iwould visit Philadelphia in the 1770s to witness thediscussion leading up to and the signing of theAmerican Constitution and to explore the state ofmind of its writers.
If I were able to witness the debate that essentiallywrote the Constitution, I feel that I would gain a muchbetter understanding of what our forefathers had inmind for our country. Because the Constitution is opento interpretation, I believe the original interpretationof its writers may have been skewed a bit over the past230+ years. The primary example I would explore isthe thought behind the separation of church and state.In the 1770s, America was a different place. Religionhad a huge impact upon society and, although ‘sepa-
rate’ from state, signs of religion could be seen in allthings. Today, people seem to have taken the wordseparate to a whole new extreme. Some of the bestexamples of this appear in the public schooling sys-tem. Things that in the past no one paid attention to,like a Christmas party in a public school classroom,are now expressly forbidden. Another example is theprayers before some high school football games thatwere once a weekly tradition are now, like Christmasparties, a thing of the past. Although these parties canstill be held if they are called “holiday parties,” andthese prayers still said as a group through moments ofsilence, something is lost. By not directly having theword Christmas in the name, people lose sight of whatthey are celebrating, the birth of Jesus Christ, and themoment of silence becomes nothing more than amoment of silence. Over time, taking more and morefocus off of religion could eventually lead to a nation-wide lack in morality, which I do not believe is what
our forefathers had in mind.While people have become hypersensitive to some
aspects of the incorporation of church into state, theyseemed to have also ignored some facets of the sameissue. On our money in the United States, every sin-gle coin and bill has the words “In God We Trust”written on it. Our pledge of allegiance even reads“One nation, under God” in its lines. It is odd howsuch small things are changed, like the wordChristmas, even before the larger things.
Obviously, the Constitution has had, and will con-tinue to have, an enormous impact upon our greatcountry, and the period surrounding its signing wouldcertainly be an interesting one. If I could go to thattime period and see how things happened, hundreds ofconstitutional debates could be settled, and I wouldgain a superior understanding of the words liberty,equality, and freedom.

Children wild about money Provided by Fleet and Family Support Center
One of the more neglected topics in child rearing is personal finance. Children aretaught that to buy things, they must have money; but they often aren’t taught about inter-est, savings, compounding, budget planning, income taxes, mortgages, credit cards, cred-it ratings, investing, retirement savings accounts, stocks, bonds, mutual funds and so on.This lack of knowledge produces children who want things but don’t know how to obtainthem in a financially astute manner. They become adults with serious financial problems— or at the least, who aren’t making the most of their hard-earned money. It sets themup to invest poorly, to get snared by debt in college, and to be victims of unscrupulousfinancial planners, consultants and stockbrokers.
Fleet and Family Support Center sponsored two classes in July to help childrenbecome aware of earning money and saving it for a “Rainy Day”. On July 6, “WildAbout Money” was presented and was tailored to the nine - 12 year olds who learnedways to make money by doing chores at home and building entrepreneurships. On July13, “Moneywise for Young Minds” was presented and focused on the six - eight yearolds who learned all the basics of earning money and savings.
Both of these classes helped children set goals. Children learned it isn’t always pos-sible to have what you want when you want it, but it is possible to plan for how you canafford it and then work toward it. Brainstorm with your children about things they cando to earn the money they need for what they want. Try to keep timeframes short, espe-cially for younger children. Consider matching whatever they do make so that the chal-lenge doesn’t seem insurmountable. Make a sheet or chart and keep it up to date so thatthey can see how close they are. When they reach their goal, celebrate!!! With a goal anda plan, many things are possible.
Don’t pass up opportunities to teach children about money while shopping, payingbills, making financial choices, reading the financial section of the newspaper, or review-ing your investments. This can be done in a fun, lighthearted and interesting manner,which always makes any lesson more effective. Remember to praise your children forsmall successful steps they take in gaining money skills.
Regardless of your children’s level of interest, there are basics of finance they simplymust learn. They’ll either do it the easy way, with your guidance — or they’ll do it thehard way, on their own.
If you would like more information on all Fleet and Family Support Center work-shops or how you can help your children or yourself become financial savvy, please con-tact a Financial Specialist from Fleet and Family Support Center at 843-764-7480
Teaching children about personal finance is the goal of Wild about Money,classes taught by the Fleet and Family Support Center. A group of young,future entrepreneurs display their diplomas.

Tips to Deal with the Heat
With the official arrival of summer a month ago,outdoor activities such as trips to the beach, waterparks, barbeques, vacation time and working out-doors have increased.
The following is a list of tips to help deal with theheat:
· Drink plenty of water.· Wear loose fitting, light colored clothing and
keep your head covered while cutting the grass, edg-ing and trimming bushes.
· Watering the lawn should be done early morningor late in the evening when the sun is not directlyoverhead.
· Make sure that your pet has plenty of fresh waterin a place out of the sun.
· Mosquitos like warm/hot weather, so keep yourgrass cut low, your doors tightly closed, and removestanding water from around your home.
As the temperatures rise, your air conditioner willwork a lot harder. Ensure that windows and doorsare closed. Turn on your ceiling fans to help circu-late the air inside your home. Your air conditionerwill cool down your home approximately 10-15degrees from outside temperatures.
