The USO Naples hosted their 2nd annual dodge ball tournament at the outdoor basketball court on Naval Support Activity (NSA) Naples Capodichino, August 20. The free event included a double-elimination dodgeball tournament, barbecue, a half- court shot competition and “Best Dressed Team” prizes. “I would absolutely call the event a success,” USO Naples Programs and Volunteer Co- ordinator Shannon McCaul- ley said, “It’s great to see the Sailors and Soldiers out en- joying themselves and taking that break they deserve.” More than 75 players, spec- tators and volunteers at- tended the highly-anticipated event. The lives of the five “fallen patriots” who were killed as a result of the July 16 attacks in Chattanooga, Tennessee, were “truly exemplary,” Defense Secre- tary Ash Carter said August 15 during a memorial service in that city. Carter joined Vice President Joe Biden, Navy Secretary Ray Mabus, Navy Adm. Jonathan Greenert, the chief of naval operations, and Marine Gen. Joseph Dunford, the current commandant of the Marine Corps who was confirmed by the U.S. Senate to become the next chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and other officials at the ceremony. Those in attendance honored the service of Marines Sgt. Carson Holmquist, Gunnery Sgt. Thomas Sul- livan, Lance Cpl. Skip Wells, Staff Sgt. David Wyatt and Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class Randall Smith, who died from the shooting attack on the Navy Operational Support Center Chat- tanooga.

EARTHQUAKE AWARENESS Napoli, the Campania Region and Italy offer many opportunities

to all of us that others can only dream of. While we make the mostof the experience, we need to understand and accept the potentialfor emergency situations such as earthquakes here.Over the past couple of years we have participated in various

earthquake drills, and we will continue to do so in the future.These events offer us an opportunity to educate ourselves and oneanother about the likelihood of an earthquake here, and the impor-tance of preparing ourselves to get through them.Consider the “what if’s” associated with an earthquake and what

you need to do to prepare your emergency plan and build your kit.The following is provided to help you understand and best preparefor an earthquake. The NSA Naples Emergency ManagementTeam is available to assist you in your preparations. Please con-tact us, and your Command’s emergency management staff withany questions or concerns you may have.

What Causes Earthquakes to Occur?Earthquakes are caused by the movements of the huge tectonic

plates that make up Earth’s outer crust. Driven by currents in thesemi-molten layer below the crust, the plates slowly drift overEarth’s surface and collide, grind together, or pull apart. Most earthquakes occur on fault lines – cracks in Earth’s crust

where two plates meet and grind together. Earthquakes can hap-pen almost anywhere and anytime without warning, so you andyour family should be prepared.

How Can I Prepare for an Earthquake?●Minimize home hazards by bolting shelves, bookcases, china cabinets, and other tall furniture and strapping the water heaterto studs in the walls.

● Identify a safe place in every room of your home where nothingcan fall on you, such as under a table, or other sturdy furniture.

● Practice earthquake drills as a family so everyone knows what todo, especially “Drop, Cover, and Hold On!”

● Ensure you have a fully-stocked disaster kit (visit links below)

What Do I Do If There Is an Earthquake?If you are indoors● Do not run outside. There may be falling debris.● If possible, DROP to the ground, take COVER under a table orsturdy piece of furniture, and HOLD ON until the shaking stops.

● The electricity may go out, so don’t use elevators

If you are outdoors:●Move away from buildings, street lights, and utility wires oranything that could fall into somewhere open

If you are in a moving vehicle:Stop as soon as you can, away from buildings or anything that

could fallStay in the vehicle

What to Do When the Shaking Stops:● Check yourself and others for injuries.● Turn off the gas if you suspect a leak.● Stay tuned to the radio for further information and instructions106 and 107 FM.

● Expect aftershocks, which can come minutes, hours, or daysafter an earthquake.

THE INSIDE PAGENavy Seeks Sailors’ Opinion on Alcohol Use and Responsible Drinking

Do you have go-to advice for your fellowshipmates on responsible drinking? Haveyou noticed a shift in drinking behaviorover the last year? This summer, the NavyAlcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention(NADAP) Office launched the third annualKeep What You’ve Earned survey to gaininsight on how alcohol use and abuse isperceived in the Navy. The anonymous survey takes five minutes

to complete and is available at https://sur-vey.max.gov/167456As a result of last year’s survey,

completed by morethan 1,400Navy person-nel and theirfamilies,NADAP gainedvaluable in-sights aboutchanges inSailors’ drinkingbehavior andawareness of al-cohol abuse pre-vention effortslike the KeepWhat You’veEarned campaign.This year, NADAPhopes to build onthose insights to fur-ther improve the ef-fectiveness of thecampaign. “The Keep What

You’ve Earned cam-paign has been shapedby feedback fromSailors and its effortswould not be successfulwithout their input,”Dorice Favorite, director,NADAP Office, said. “The annual surveyallows our office to determine how well al-cohol abuse prevention efforts and mes-sages are being delivered across the fleet

From Chief of Naval Personnel Public Affairs and shape the following year’s plan to im-prove those efforts.”The anonymous survey asks about your

reasons for drinking, the likelihood thatyou or your fellow Sailors would seek helpfor alcohol abuse, and any recommenda-tions you have for the campaign. Feedbackfrom this survey will help the campaigncontinue to develop materials to encourageresponsible drinking and remind Sailors tokeep what they’ve earned. “Understanding Sailors’ opinions and at-

titudes towards al-cohol use in theNavy is a criticalcomponent to thesuccess of theKeep WhatYou’ve Earnedcampaign,” Fa-vorite said.“This surveygives us a pulsecheck on howthose atti-tudes and be-haviors havechanged inthe pastyear, andhow we cancontinue todevelop aninnovativestrategy topromoteresponsi-bledrink-ing.” Thesurvey

is being re-leased in conjunction with

the campaign’s summer poster contestand the Play to Live pledge to drink re-sponsibly this summer.For more information about how to en-

Pacific theater, and though itwas a costly victory for theUnited States, it became theturning point of the war. TheJapanese invaded Guadalca-nal early in the summer of1942 to construct an airfield.Despite being not properlyprepared for an invasion, theAllies, led by the United Sta-tes were determined to takethe island, partly as paybackfor Pearl Harbor, and also be-cause a Japanese air basecould put Australia at risk ofaerial attack.On Nov. 13, 1942, Japanese

planes attacked the fleet atGuadalcanal. A kamikaze cra-shed into the San Francisco’sradar and fire-control station,resulting in 50 men being kil-led and wounded.The next day, enemy fighters

strafed San Francisco’sbridge, killing nearly every of-ficer on the ship. Throughoutthe fight, and despite withe-ring enemy fire, Harmon re-peatedly dragged hiscomrades to safety and atten-

ded to their wounds. He diedwhile using his own body toshield a wounded shipmatefrom gunfire.Harmon was posthumously

awarded the Navy Cross for“extraordinary heroism.” OnMay 21, 1943, Secretary of theNavy Frank Knox announcedthat a warship would benamed for Harmon. What made the naming of

the ship remarkable was thatHarmon was black. At a timeof widely accepted segregationat home and in uniform, itwas the first U.S. warship tocarry the name of an African-American. The Harmon, a 1,400-ton

Buckley-class destroyerescort, was assigned to theThird and Seventh Fleets. Sheparticipated in the January1945 landings at LingayenGulf, Leyte, and in Marchoperated off Iwo Jima. She re-ceived three battle stars forher World War II service. Har-mon was decommissioned inMarch 1947 and remained

inactive until being scrappedin 1967.In 1975, the bachelor enlisted

quarters at Naval Air StationNorth Island, Calif., was rena-med Harmon Hall. Two yearslater the state of Texas reco-gnized him with a state histo-rical marker at the municipalpark in his hometown.

On August 31, 1943, the firstNavy ship named for a blackSailor, the Buckley-class de-stroyer escort, USS Harmon(DE 678), was commissioned.The ship was named in

honor Mess Attendant FirstClass Leonard Roy Harmon,who was posthumously awar-ded the Navy Cross for he-roism during the Battle ofGuadalcanal.The ship was built by Be-

thlehem Steel Co., of Quincy,Massachusetts, and her spon-sor was Harmon’s mother,Naunita Harmon Carroll. Harmon was born in Cuero,

Texas, on Jan. 21, 1917, asmall town in SoutheastTexas, about half way bet-ween San Antonio and Hou-ston, and graduated fromDaule High School – whatwas then a blacks-only insti-tution.After graduation Harmon

did manual labor in his home-town for several years beforedeciding to enlist in the Navy.Once his mind was made up,

Harmon was determined toserve his country. He origi-nally tried to enlist at a re-cruiting station in SanAntonio, but was turned awaydue to a minor heart condi-

tion. He returned to Cuero,and sought medical help to fixhis condition. After overco-ming that obstacle, he succes-sfully enlisted in the Navy onJune 10, 1939, at a recruitingstation in Houston.Following boot camp and

mess attendant “A” school atNorfolk, Virginia, Harmon re-ported to the New Orleans-class heavy cruiser USS SanFrancisco (CA 38) in October1939.About a month before the Ja-

panese attack at Pearl Harboron Dec. 7, 1941, Harmon waspromoted to first class. SanFrancisco was at dry-dock atPearl Harbor when the attacktook place. Although her mainguns were dismantled, theSailors defended their shipwith small arms. San Francisco was one of the

few ships in the harbor to sur-vive the attack unscathed,and she was quickly returnedto sea. Nearly a year later, San

Francisco was protectingtransports that were bringingmuch-needed supplies to U.S.Marines during the battle ofGuadalcanal. The Battle of Guadalcanal,

which lasted from August1942 to February 1943 wasthe first major offensive in the

ENERGY CONSERVATION

It has been publicized over and over again. When you leave aroom, turn off the lights. If you are not using it, power it down.But, what about appliances and systems that are designed tooperate consistently? What can you do to prevent excess powerconsumption with these appliances and systems?

Refrigerators and Freezers:●Minimize opening and closing your refrigerator and freezer.

Every time you open it, cool air will rush out and be replacedwith warm air, causing the refrigerator to run more to staycool.● Keep it full. Refrigerators and freezers actually operate

most efficiently when full, so keep your refrigerator andfreezer as full as possible (with bottles of water if nothing else)● Keep condenser coils on the back of your refrigerator and

freezer clean.

Water Heater:● Set temperature to 120 degrees (F) if your dishwasher has

its own water heater; otherwise set it at 140 degrees (F).● Repair leaking faucets. Warm-water leaks should be given

immediate attention because they can raise your electric con-sumption rapidly.● Drain your hot water tank regularly to remove sediment.

Dishwashers and Clothes Washer/Dryer:● Only run dishwashers and clothes washers when fully

loaded. ● Use the air-dry setting on your dishwasher. ●When drying clothes, do not overfill the ● Ensure that the outside clothes dryer air vent is well-

sealed.● Use at night. Using dishwashers and clothes washers/dry-

ers at night will keep the house cooler

Air Force Trains at U.S. Naval Hospital NaplesU.S. Naval Hospital Naples

was a sea of Navy and AirForce blue working side byside during the last two weeksof July.The 126th Medical Group

Air National Guard out ofScott Air Force Base, Illinoisprovided two weeks of med-ical assistance to U.S. NavalHospital Naples during theirannual training at Naval Sup-port Activity Naples, Italy. As the military health serv-

ices strive to become more in-tegrated in the delivery ofhealthcare, the 28 membersfrom the 126th welcomed theopportunity to work withtheir active duty counterpartsfrom a sister service over thesummer.“Right now, joint is the new

push. It is going to be the fu-ture of military medicine,” AirForce Col. Eric Vaughn, chiefof aeromedical services for the

126th, said. “If you go into anymajor medical complex aroundthe world and stateside, youwill see air, Army and Navyphysicians, and Allied help,staffing the positions.” Col. Vaughn and Naval Hos-

pital Naples Commanding Of-ficer Capt. Barth Merrill werepartners in promoting andrestoring readiness andhealth to beneficiaries of theNaples, Italy area. Jointness is a key initiative

within the military healthsystem. Implementing sharedservices and resources helpsto meet the mission in provid-ing affordable and qualityhealthcare. It is one of theNavy Surgeon General’sStrategic goals. Merrill recognized the re-

servists for their efforts incaring for the patients at thehospital.“Whether you wear a Navy or

Air Force uniform, healthcareis universal,” Merrill said.“The 126th stepped up and

provided valuable patient careservices to our beneficiariesand the joint training providedby both services will benefiteach other in the future.” Not only did Naples enjoy

having Air Force in the hospi-tal for a couple of weeks, theyalso benefited from the wealthof knowledge this Air Guardunit brought from their civil-ian sector professions.Maj. Patrick McCann, a

flight surgeon for the 126th,gave a talk about preventativecardiology, focusing on avert-ing or delaying the progressionof heart disease. His civilianexperience as a cardiologistprovided great information tothe providers in Italy.The Navy corpsmen also pro-

vided the Air Force medicswith training in areas such assutures, casting and moldingmouth guards, and manualeye glass fabrication. Bothunits worked together seam-lessly in patient care as wellas clinical training.

This is not the first joint ven-ture for the 126th MedicalGroup, and will most likelynot be the last. Working withother services provides a greatopportunity to develop jointhealthcare solutions and share

resources that benefit patientcare. Naval Hospital Naples,Italy echoes these sentimentsand is thankful for the experi-ence and mission accomplish-ment with the assistance oftheir sister Air Guard unit.

McCaulley said that thesetypes of events are a greatway to integrate single Sailorsduring a busy moving seasonand it’s all worthwhile whenthey see people connectingwith their new community.“Even if it’s one troop that

we make a difference in a daywhether it’s a cup of coffee ora dodgeball tournament it’s asuccess,” McCaulley said.After the six teams battled it

out through a double-elimina-tion format, team “My Ties”from NSA Naples RegionLegal Service Office tookhome first place. “My Ties”faced the reigning Armychampions “Seven Dwarfs” inhead-to-head championshipmatch. “This was one of the events

we really enjoy coming outand helping out with,” Lt. AriCraig, NSA Naples RegionLegal Service Office JAGCorps officer, said. “The USOis awesome at what they doand they do a lot of reallygreat things.”Craig, Region Legal Service

Office command fitnessleader, said they play dodge-ball at least once a month sotheir command had a bit ofpractice under their belt. Hesaid they wanted to provethey could hold their own inan athletic sport.Not all participants attend-

ing the event had the inten-tion of battling it out on thecourt. For NSA Naples Chap-lain Lt. Cmdr. Leroy Young,the annual event was achance to build unit cohesionand show good sportsman-ship.“I love seeing the competitive

spirit, the drive and tenacityto win,” Young said. “I thinkthe intense competition is areflection of their work ethicand it was definitely demon-strated.”

Young volunteered as a com-mentator during the eventand provided play-by-playanalysis of what was happen-ing on the court. He said hehas volunteered with the USObefore and he enjoys it everytime. “It’s always good when you

see the USO bring people to-gether,” Young said. “I thinkwhen these types of eventshappen they help build aneven stronger community andthat’s what I witnessed heretoday.”The 2nd Annual Dodgeball

Tournament was one of manymonthly events USO Napleshosts every month. Upcomingevents include a USOSpouse’s Coffee networkingbreakfast, a USO sponsoredspa day in Ischia and a freesingle Sailor extreme paint-ball event. For more information on up-

coming USO sponsored eventscheck their Facebook page atUSO Naples.

McCaulley said she had peo-ple talk to her for monthsasking about playing and vol-unteering in the event again. “People are excited about

the annual events especiallythe team “Balls in yourFace”,” McCaulley said. “Theywere really disappointed theydidn’t win. They kept theratty T-shirts they wore lastyear because this had beensomething that has broughtthem together as a unit.”

how to advise your family members on yourstatus, location, next steps, and a place togo where you’ll be safe and can be found.
