After a one-year absence due to funding issues caused by sequestration,
the Admiral’s Cup sprint triathlon returned this year to NBVC Point Mugu.
Held just before the Armed Forces Triathlon Championships and open
only to people with base access this year, it drew 36 competitors. Here,

The 70th anniversary of D-
Day, June 6, marks the first day
the public can see two new gal-
leries at the U.S. Navy Seabee
Museum: one on the Seabees’
role in the Atlantic Theater of
World War II and the other on
how the Seabees trained to
carry out that job.
The actual ribbon-cutting
will take place the evening of
Thursday, June 5, after Muse-
um Director Lara Godbille
gives a 7 p.m. presentation titled
“Seabees and Civil Engineer
Corps Officers: Overlooked
Heroes at the Invasion of Nor-
mandy.”
“Ten-thousand Seabees took
part in the invasion, with much
of their work focused on creat-
ing and perfecting the imple-
mentation of pontoons that
carried men and materiel to
shore,” Godbille explained.
Each pontoon was a one-ton
steel box that measured 5 feet

By now, you’ve probably heard about — or seen — the
activity around Building 267 at Naval Base Ventura County
(NBVC) Port Hueneme. I wanted to let you know a little bit
about what is going on there and ask for your help.
NBVC, at the request of the Department of Health and
Human Services (HHS) and by direction of the Department
of Defense (DoD), is coordinating the use of Building 267
to temporarily house unaccompanied alien children who
were stopped by U.S. Border Patrol and are now being
cared for by HHS’ Administration for Children and Fami-
lies (ACF).
The children will be under the supervision and care of
ACF. Within HHS, ACF is responsible for providing care
and shelter to children referred by immigration authorities.
Building 267, the former Navy Mobilization Process-
ing Site, can safely house approximately 575 individuals,
although the number is expected to fluctuate. We expect to
support this mission for up to 120 days. HHS will cover all
of the costs associated with this mission.
We have re-routed traffic to the RV park to avoid this
area; this detour is expected to remain in place for the
duration of HHS’ use of the facility.
This is a unique support mission, and we expect quite
a lot of activity in and around the area over the next few
months. I’m asking everyone to avoid the area to minimize
traffic and maximize privacy for the children entrusted to
ACF during their stay on our installation.
Do you have questions, comments, or suggestions?
I want to hear them! Reach me here by emailing light-
[email protected], on Facebook at www.facebook.com/
NavalBaseVenturaCounty or on Twitter at www.twitter.com/
NBVCCalifornia. You can also go online to our homep-
age at http://cnic.navy.mil/ventura/index.htm and use the
Commanding Officer’s Suggestion Box. I look forward to
hearing from you.

Friday, May 30, dawned with multiple
traffic flow changes for residents and
visitors to Naval Base Ventura County
(NBVC).
Friday morning, access to the RV park
at NBVC Port Hueneme via Salsa Street
was interrupted due to maintenance op-
erations at a nearby facility. Visitors to the
park were diverted to an alternate access
point on Pacific Road near the Bee Hive
Gym.
Morale, Welfare &Recreation and Pub-
lic Works staff ensured that clear signage
directed RV drivers to the new entrance,
and guards were directed to make sure
anyone entering with an RV was notified
of the change, said Jim O’Rourke, MWR
site manager.
The same day at NBVC Point Mugu,
24-hour access changed from Las Posas
Gate to North Mugu Road gate, where
construction was recently completed. Las
Posas Gate now operates from 6 a.m. to
6 p.m. Monday through Friday except for
federal holidays.
The North Mugu Road gate had been
the 24-hour gate prior to its closure in
February 2013 due to a structural integ-
rity issue with its canopy. The gate re-
opened in April after a vehicle crashed
through the Main Road Gate, rendering
it inoperable.

MEMORIAL DAY
By Andrea Howry

The Navy Lodge Program, which over-
sees operations of 40 Navy Lodges
worldwide, has awarded the Navy Lodge
at Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC)
Port Hueneme with a Hospitality Award
and named its general manager, Carla
Vicens, the General Manager of the
Year.
The Hospitality Award is given to
Navy Lodges that guests rate the highest
in several areas of service, including staff
friendliness and room cleanliness. With
47 rooms, the Port Hueneme facility won
in the medium-size category. This was
the first time it has won the award.
“We had a great year,”said Vicens, who
oversees a staff of 15. “I’m eager for us
to continue to do what we do — and do
it well. I’m very excited for our group.
Everyone here is very proud and hon-
ored.”
Vicens has been the general manager
for nearly three years. She said she has
put a fresh emphasis on the value of pro-
viding premier guest service.
“Our clients will come back for the
guest experience,”she explained. “They’re
not coming back for just basic amenities,
and they aren’t going to come back if
they’re treated poorly.”
Vicens recently launched the Manag-
er’s Reception. Refreshments are served
from 5 to 6 p.m. Wednesdays so guests
can meet each other and Vicens herself
— “a great way to get feedback,” she
said.
She also oversaw a beautification of
the Navy Lodge grounds that included
removing the messy red mulch that kept
blowing away and replacing it with small
red rocks and using succulents in place
of water-guzzling plants.

Fifteen volunteers from Naval Mobile

staff from Port Hueneme’s Richard Bard

Thevolunteersusedhandtoolsandwheel-

“Without their help, I don’t think we
would have been able to have undertaken
this project,” said Principal Sue Parsons.
“Theirsupporthasmadeourtrackandfield
safer for the students and for the commu-
nity members who share the fields after

that of my staff and students for all of the
support.”
AccordingtoNMCB3’sEquipmentOp-
erator1stClassMannyFigueroa,theschool’s
need for volunteers spoke to the heart of
what he felt being a Seabee in the commu-
nitydemanded.
“As Seabees, we are usedtodeploying to
small islands and remote countries to help
build schools, dig water wells and support
all kinds of humanitarianassistance, disas-
ter-response type of operations,” said
Figueroa. “Providingthat samestyleof aid
toourlocal communities, ourneighborsand
of course the schools some of our children
attendis exactly what we like todo—it’s a
no brainer. I’m happy we could help and
plantobe there againif needed.”

The last day of school is near. Summer
plans are under way. Vacations, beach trips
and barbecues with friends make for won-
derful ways to spend summer vacation.
However, fun and sun don’t need to
mean that learning ceases.
According to Johns Hopkins Univer-
sity, students suffer learning loss during
the summer months, also known as “the
summer slide.” A typical student will lose
about one month of learning, with disad-
vantaged or struggling students losing
even more.
To ensure your student is prepared to
return to school, a summer reading pro-
gram can act as a bridge between school
years. High school students in honors and
Advanced Placement (AP) classes may not
have an option. Summer reading is typi-
cally assigned, with an assignment due the
first day of class. However, all other stu-
dents will also benefit greatly by taking
advantage of the summer months, free
from full-time school, and logging some
reading hours.
In addition to programs possibly offered
by your child’s schools, local libraries of-
fer summer reading programs. Encourag-
ing children to log reading hours or the
number of pages or books read, these
programs keep children interested in learn-
ing. Summer reading programparticipants
check in regularly and earn incentives for
their reading accomplishments. Offering
these programs in a library gives children
access to a wide selection of reading choic-
es.
An enthusiastic approach to reading will
encourage a life-long love of reading. To
that end, public libraries will often have
story hours, literacy activities, arts and
crafts and special events. Participating in
these offerings will allow children to see
reading not as a school assignment, but
an opportunity to experience and learn
about wonderful new adventures.
As important as reading can be for stu-
dents during the summer, there are other
activities that can be added to a summer
day to encourage learning. Here are just
a few:
• Cook with your children. Cooking
integrates math, reading and following
directions.
• Plant a garden. A garden is science in
action.
• Take a “field trip” to the museum or
zoo, or go on a hike. Have your children
keep a journal or take pictures on their
adventures.
• Learn a newword each day. Have your
children come up with as many ways that
they can use that word.
• Teach children card games. A simple
Internet search will teach you some new
ones.
• After taking pictures on your adven-
tures, have your child put a scrapbook
together with captions for each picture.
You may notice advertisements for web-
sites to help lessen the effects of the sum-
mer slide. While there is nothing wrong
with using those websites — or many
other free ones — finding non-tech ways
to discourage the summer slide can also
be fun and different, and can encourage
family interactions.
In the next edition, I will list a variety
of websites that can be used to discourage
the summer slide while at home or while
traveling. For now, try thinking of fun
learning opportunities that don’t require
turning on a computer, phone or televi-
sion.

Some of my greatest memories in life
are from my summer camp days — my
time as a camper and counselor for nu-
merous summers. Like other fortunate
grown-ups who are also camp alumni,
we would love nothing more than to pass
this unique experience to the next gen-
eration of kids we love and care for.
For those who have never attended
summer camp, it is hard to explain why
eating S’mores — a combination of
chocolate and marshmallows squished
between two graham crackers over a
campfire — is one of the greatest culi-
nary treats ever invented by man.
Or perhaps the best experience of all
is simply for one to get away from home-
work and be with his or her best mates
for a couple of weeks at a rustic cabin
in the woods. Instead of mastering long
division or the multiplication tables, they
can focus on other important skills, like
how to build a campfire, shoot a bow
and arrow, or catch and clean a fish for
their cabin’s fish fry.
Looking back, maybe the most valu-
able lesson I learned at camp is how to
live with other people, in close quarters,
who are different than I am. I recall we
had campers from the inner cities as well
as those from the suburbs. Although we
began each new session warily checking
each other out, by the end of camp we
had become good buddies by staying up
late at night, laughing at silly jokes, play-
ing sports against other campers and
listening to classic campfire tales.
This summer I want to offer an invita-
tion to families who have kids to join us
for this year’s Vacation Bible School.
This is a wonderful day camp opportu-
nity, along with the normal fun and
games, where they will also learn some-
thing about the timeless values of faith
and family.
While this week is not an overnight
event, it will still be a tremendous time
for your youngsters to make new friends
and laugh and play for awhile before
school begins again in the fall.
This weeklong event is open to chil-
dren between the ages of 5 and 12; each
day will be from 9 a.m. to noon July
14-18. The location is the Seabee Chapel,
Naval Base Ventura County, Port Hue-
neme.
This year’s theme plays off the Old
West and promises a “Rip-Roarin’ Good
Time.”
Registration is open now and contin-
ues through July 11. Call the Seabee
Chapel at 805-982-4358 to sign up or to
get more information.
We also need volunteers to help during
the week. Anyone older than 13 may
volunteer, and there will be a nursery
available to parents who want to help.
Call the chapel for more information.
Hope to see some of you there. Have
a great summer. God bless you!

Families that are going through
stressful situations may be eligible
for up to 16 hours of respite care a
month under a new Navy program
that started this month at Naval
Base Ventura County (NBVC).
Called “Give Parents a Break,”
the program requires a referral from
a commanding officer, executive of-
ficer, command master chief, chap-
lain, physician, Fleet & Family Sup-
port Center manager or an
installation Child and Youth Pro-
grams (CYP) director.
“Military families are subject to
unique stressors associated with
military life, including deployments,
remote tours of duty and extended
working hours,” Navy officials said
in unveiling the program. “The
‘Give Parents a Break’ program is
designed to give family members a
short break from parenting in order
to help them deal with these types
of stressful situations.”
Jacob Munyon, the CYP installa-
tion program director at NBVC,
said respite care is being made avail-
able from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. during
the first eight working days of each
month for children 6 weeks to 12
years old.
Location of the respite care ro-
tates between NBVC Port Hueneme
and NBVC Point Mugu.
Upcoming respite care dates are
June 30 and July 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9 and
10 at NBVC Point Mugu.
In August, respite care moves to
NBVC Port Hueneme and will be
available the first eight business
days of the month.
The minimum amount of respite
care that can be made available is
two hours a month.
Anyone who is eligible for CYP
services is also eligible for a refer-
ral for this program, Munyon
said.
Referrals can be made up to three
months in advance.
“A couple of hours just one day
a month can make a huge differ-
ence to a family,” Munyon said. “A
parent can go to the grocery store
or just be at home enjoying the
quiet. I think this is a great op-
portunity to help families that need
the care and are truly in stress.”
NBVC already offers the Parents
Night Out program, where parents
can drop off their children for a
couple of hours one night a
month.
“That’s a great opportunity for
parents to go and enjoy the night,”
Munyon said. “But families that
are having daily stress can now take
more than one night a month.”

NMCB 3
Naval Mobile Construction
Battalion (NMCB) 3’s Safety
Department teamed up with
NMCB 4 and Naval Base Ven-
tura County (NBVC) to con-
duct critical safety training for
700 Sailors assigned to the
combined commands. As prep-
aration for the start of 101 days
of summer — the most active
and often costliest to safety
each year — participants in the
May 16 event rotated through
seven stations, each focused on
a topic proven to pose the most
risk to service members during
the warm summer months.
“The stand down is dedicated
to ensuring our service mem-
bers stay safe while out with
their families and friends tak-
ing full advantage of the sum-
mertime,” said Chief Construc-
tion Electrician Chance Agnew,
NMCB 3’s safety lead.
During the stand down, ser-
vice members listened to med-
ical, recreational and outdoor
experts teach lessons on the
value of heat preparedness, re-
sponsible drinking, food care,
hydration and other topics.
Above all, avoiding personal
injury was stressed.
NMCB 3’s battalion physi-
cian, Lt. Karen Ganacias, pro-
vided all in attendance with a
thorough understanding of
symptoms and ways to avoid
injuries while playing sports or
enjoying the outdoors.
Ganacias specifically identi-
fied symptoms of concussions,
warning signs of heat distress
and how to properly care for
sprains and muscle pulls.
“Our battalion is pretty well
versed on how to spot and get
help for most of the things [Ga-
nacias] discussed because we do
a great job at keeping this in-
formation constantly in play,”
said Engineering Aid 1st Class
Willie Blanding of NMCB 3.
“No matter how many times we
discuss it, it never fails to pro-
vide value.”
With nearly all motorcycle
accidents resulting in death or
life-affecting injury, vehicle
safety was the second topic
shown special attention.
Seabees from NMCB 3 dis-
played two dirt bikes, a street
bike and thousands of dollars
of personal protective gear to
stress the value of preparedness
and smart decision-making
while on the road.
“I have a huge scar that’s
never going away from a slipped
chain on my dirt bike,” said
NMCB 3 Construction Me-
chanic 1st Class Jeremy Harris.
“That scar serves as a perma-
nent reminder that I could have
been killed from not doing ba-
sic maintenance and checks
before going out and having
fun.”
The team’s brief on vehicle
safety included basic checks,
routine maintenance, what to
do if there’s an accident and
how to best avoid costly mis-
takes commonly made while
operating a bike or driving a
car.
“During the entire event, we
saw great interaction between
the presenters and the partici-
pants and could tell the infor-
mation was getting through,”
Agnew said.

“Redemption!”
Having finished the Admiral’s Cup
sprint triathlon in second place for three
years in a row, Jim Avrea was ecstatic when
he won the 2014 event Saturday, May 31,
at Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC)
Point Mugu.
“I’m so happy to be out here,” the 54-
year-old Venturan said. “It’s so kind of
the base to put on this event.”
The Admiral’s Cup was canceled last
year due to funding issues caused by se-
questration. This year, the event was lim-
ited only to those with base access, and as
a result, participation plummeted from
more than 100 in 2012 to 36 this year.
But like Avrea, those who took part
were appreciative and happy.
“This is a nice event, really well-orga-
nized,” said Jim Sayre, a retired Army
lieutenant colonel from Agoura Hills who
did a relay with his son, William.
“I’m thrilled it’s back,” said Katie Gage,
an engineer at the Naval Surface Warfare
Center, Port Hueneme Division, the first-
place finisher among the women.
Gage competed in her first Admiral’s
Cup in 2010 and was eager to try again.
But she was traveling on business during
the 2011 and 2012 events.
“I really like this race because it’s small
and you don’t usually get clobbered,” she
said.
That was especially true this year; she
raced against only six other women.
In fact, the number of rescue personnel
stationed in the ocean nearly equaled the
entire Admiral’s Cup field. There were
nearly two dozen lifeguards and other
people in the water, including Ventura
County and City of Oxnard personnel on
rescue vehicles.
No problems were reported during the
race.
The quarter-mile swim took place in
57-degree water. There was no fog, and
morning temperatures warmed up during
the 12.4-mile bike ride and 3.1-mile run.
By the time all contestants had finished
around 10:30 a.m., temperatures were well
into the 70s.
“It’s a perfect day,” said David Guerra
of Camarillo. “It’s beautiful weather.”
Avrea was the only one to finish in less
than an hour. His final time was 55 min-
utes, 43 seconds. The second-place fin-
isher, Adam Rossi, had a time of
1:02:10.
Gage’s time was 1:09:43. She came in
ninth overall.

woman to finish the Admiral’s Cup sprint triathlon.
The engineer at the Naval Surface Warfare
Center, Port Hueneme Division, competed in the
2010 event and was “thrilled” that it was back
after a one-year absence due to funding issues
caused by sequestration.
Team Van Zuyle celebrates its first-place finish in the
relay category of the Admiral’s Cup sprint triathlon. Henry,
12, cycled, and Emma, 14, swam. Finishing up with the
run was their father, Paul, an information technology
specialist with the Naval Facilities Engineering and
Expeditionary Warfare Center and a multiple first-place
finisher in the lunchtime 5Ks on base.

The U.S. Navy men’s triathlon team re-
peated its 2013 first-place finish in this year’s
Armed Forces Triathlon Championship Sat-
urday, May 31, at Naval Base Ventura Coun-
ty (NBVC) Point Mugu.
The Navy women’s team, which won the
gold medal last year, had to settle for third-
place this year, falling victim to a strong re-
turning Air Force team, which placed first,
and a new but powerful Marine Corps team
that took home the silver.
The triathlon championship pits the top
triathletes in the Navy, Army, Air Force and
Marine Corps against one another in a 1,500-
meter (one-mile) ocean swim, 40-kilometer
(24.8-mile) draft-legal bike ride and 10-kilo-
meter (6.2-mile) run.
Among the men’s teams, the Air Force took
silver and the Army placed third.
Army Capt. Nicholas Vandam of Fort
Carson, Colorado, repeated his 2012 first-
place finish with a time of 1 hour, 51 minutes,
37 seconds. He missed last year’s race because
he was in Afghanistan.
Air Force 2nd Lt. Samantha Morrison of
Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in North
Carolina repeated her 2013 victory with a
time of 2:06:25.
While the triathletes noted that the course
seemed fast this year, Vandam’s winning time
was actually 6 minutes off his 2012 time.
“I didn’t get to swim or train much in Af-
ghanistan,” he explained, adding that waves
during the ocean swim and windy conditions
during the bike race also played a role.
“At times it felt like I wasn’t even moving
because of the waves,” he said.
Morrison found this triathlon to be less
stressful than last year’s; she had graduated
from the U.S. Air Force Academy just three
days prior to the 2013 triathlon.
“Compared to last year, I could just come
out and relax a little,” she said. “The swim,
though, was especially tough. All these girls
are fast.”
She agreed with Vandam that a strong
headwind made the bike race tough.
“And the run was very hot,” she said.
Often cloaked in fog this time of year, Point
Mugu was clear and close to 80 degrees dur-
ing the race.
Navy Lt. Kyle Hooker, who finished about
1 minute after Vandam and came in second,
agreed that heat was a factor.
“I’m from Whidbey Island in Washington,
so I’m not so good in warm weather,” he
said.
But he noted that this is his fifth year com-
peting in the triathlon championship, and
this was his best time so far, at 1:52:40.
The third-place finisher was Air Force Ca-
det John Bierman of the U.S. Air Force
Academy in Colorado Springs. His time was
1:56:07.
The second-place finisher among the wom-
en was Navy Lt. Rachel Beckman of Arling-
ton, Virginia, whose time was 2:07:49, and
the third-place finisher, at 2:11:31, was 1st
Lt. Mollie Hebda of the Marine Corps, who
had been promoted from second lieutenant
the day before.
“We’re a new team — three of us had
never done this before,” said Hebda, who
completed her first triathlon just over a year
ago. “This race went exactly as we wanted it
to.”
This is the 15th year NBVC Point Mugu
has hosted the triathlon championship.
“Naval Base Ventura County is excited and
proud to host the Armed Forces Triathlon
Championship again this year,” said Capt.
Scott Loeschke, chief staff officer of the base.
“Congratulations to all the competitors.”
Lt. Cmdr. Matt Cameron, the flight sur-
geon at NBVC Point Mugu, said the medical
tent saw only minor cases.
“There were no major crashes,” he said.
“There were some cases of exhaustion,
cramps, overheating and dehydration. But
there was nothing serious.”
The race drew several spectators, including
competitors in the Admiral’s Cup sprint tri-
athlon that took place earlier in the morning,
plus some guests at the Beach Motel and RV
Park.
Vandam’s mother, Liz, traveled from Min-
neapolis to watch her son compete. For her,
it was a homecoming of sorts; she lived on
the base when she was in third grade.
The family of Coast Guardsman Mike
Kelly, who’s stationed in Oregon, turned the
triathlon into a family reunion. Kelly, who
competed on the Navy team, was able to see
his sister, Jenny Martin, who lives in San Di-
ego, and his mom and dad, Penny Martin
and Tony Rivas, who live in Bakersfield.
Other spectators didn’t know until that
morning that a triathlon would be taking
place.
“Now that we know, we’re going to try and
come back next year,” said Vicky Utt, who
was staying in the RV Park with her husband,
Vietnam veteran Dennis Utt. The couple lives
in Bakersfield.
During the ocean swim, another perfor-
mance competed for spectators’ attention. A
large harbor seal had caught a fish and was
feeding just a few feet away from the swim-
mers. Seagulls flocked to the commotion,
which was witnessed at close range by a pro-
fessional surfer who had volunteered to serve
as a spotter.

Laura Sega, a senior at Hart
High School in Santa Clarita
who will be studying business
at California Polytechnic Uni-
versity, San Luis Obispo, this
fall, has receiveda$2,000schol-
arship from commissary offi-
cials at Naval Base Ventura
County (NBVC) Port Huen-
eme.
Laura’s father, John, is a
colonel in the U.S. Marine
Corps Reserves, which made
the 17-year-old student eligible
for the scholarship.
John Sega attended the
Thursday, May 22, awards cer-
emony at the commissary, as
did Laura’s mom, Sharon, her
brother, Steven, andher grand-
parents, Bill andJoanGootnick
of Westlake Village. NBVC
CommandMaster Chief Percy
Trent was there as well.
“I’mso appreciative,”Laura
told the group. “This is defi-
nitely going to good use.”
In applying for the scholar-
ship, Laura had to write an es-
say about the difficulties mili-
tary families face. She focused
onfinances: howsome military
members and their families are
findingit achallenge tobecome
financially stable in the current
economy.
Grocery Manager Lisa Luna
said it’s a topic that’s close to
her heart.
“Being the spouse of active-
duty military, and having a
daughter who’s six classes away
from a degree with no way to
pay for them, I understand the
issues military families face,”
she said.
Luna’s spouse is Senior Chief
Builder Charlie Luna with Na-
val Mobile Construction Bat-
talion 5.
Trent agreed that it’s impor-
tant to recognize and support
the military families as well as
the active duty military person-
nel.
“It’s not always about the
service member,” he said. “We
need to support their families
ineverywaypossible. Theyalso
make sacrifices.”
The Scholarshipfor Military
Children is funded primarily
through manufacturers and
suppliers whose products are
sold at commissaries world-
wide.

Help when you need it.
The Fleet & Family
Support Center
The Department of the Navy states that
military families move every 2.9 years.
Packing up and starting over every three
years can be an arduous task. Fortunate-
ly, military families are resilient and can
handle anything that comes their way!
With the fast-paced lifestyle we all lead,
combined with orders that are often issued
a few months to a few weeks before de-
parture date, being organized is your No.
1 priority when it comes time for your PCS
(Permanent Change of Station). Whether
this is your first PCS as a single Sailor,
your first PCS as a Navy spouse, or even
if you’re a seasoned moving veteran, the
information below is invaluable.
Where to begin? Lucky for you, the
military has created some very informative
websites that will help throughout your
PCS.
Step One: Visit www.MilitaryInstalla-
tions.dod.mil/ and www.MilitaryOne-
Source.mil/. These sites will answer ques-
tions about your new duty station, as well
as give contact information and links to
other valuable websites. On the Military-
OneSource page, there is a link for “Plan
My Move,”where you can create a detailed
checklist of things that must be done be-
fore your PCS. Once you plug in your cur-
rent duty station, as well as your future
duty station with departure date, it does
the rest!
Step Two: Go to the Fleet & Family
Support Center (FFSC) at Naval Base
Ventura County (NBVC) and speak to a
relocation specialist. You will be able to
sign up for the “Stress-Less PCS” class,
which is your one-stop shop to hear all
the experts speak. This comprehensive
course covers the entitlements you can
expect from PSD so you can spend wisely
during your PCS; the importance of ensur-
ing your Tricare is up to date; whom to
contact if you have school-age children;
the significant difference between a Navy
move and you moving yourself under a
Personally Procured Move (PPM), for-
mally known as a DITY move; and much
more. This class might be the single most
important aspect of your preparation for
your PCS.
Step Three: Once you have orders in
hand, you can set up your move on Move.
mil. Personal Property and the FFSC can
provide a quick guide to this website.
Many times, spouses and service members
think they can’t do anything move-related
until they have orders in hand; this is not
true. While you might need to wait for
your orders to set up your move, or go to
PSD and request entitlements, there are
plenty of things you should do to prepare
for the move.
Please keep in mind that if you are a
Navy spouse, this is the perfect time to
create or update your resume. Whether
you are considering returning to work, or
simply want to keep an updated resume,
this is a great time to do so. Your local
FFSChas a programspecifically designed
to assist you with creating a new resume
or updating your current one.
It is important to know that you may
receive an adjusted paycheck due to varied
locality pay. It is a great time to develop
a realistic spending plan. The personal
financial manager at NBVC’s FFSC, Dan
Savage, can assist you. As far as the ship-
ment of household goods, the Navy will
cover these expenses (see PSD for specif-
ics), but there are still many hidden costs
that come with moving. What if your PCS
takes you overseas, outside the continen-
tal United States (OCONUS)? Are you
aware the only way to have the military
ship your car to your next duty station is
if it’s an OCONUS move?
If you have school-age children and have
questions about changing schools, contact
School Liaison Officer Monica James at
805-989-5211.
— If you have any questions regarding your
next move, contact FFSC Relocation Work
and Family Life Coordinator Brittany Barton at
805-982-3726 or brittany.barton.ctr@navy.

by 5 feet by 7 feet. The boxes were
lashed together to form causeways and
ferries that carried tanks, other vehicles,
personnel and supplies from the Land-
ing Ship, Tank (LST) to Normandy.
A pontoon and other D-Day artifacts
are on display in one gallery, as are the
massive bow doors of an LST, where
visitors can stand and look out onto a
mural of Omaha Beach.
“Out of 10,000 photos of Seabees at
Normandy that the museum has in its
collection, none was taken from the
direction of ship to shore,” Godbille
said. “This mural — this is the view
Seabees would have seen.”
The newly opened area of the mu-
seum is behind the theater, where a
World War II-era recruiting film has
replaced an Oliver North-narrated
documentary. The new film is about the
Bureau of Yards and Docks and is nar-
rated by Adm. Ben Moreell, known as
the father of the Seabees.
The first gallery visitors enter is
“From Civilian to Seabee: Seabee Train-
ing During World War II,” where they
see how the Navy set up training camps
on the East and West coasts to train
tens of thousands of men to create con-
struction battalions.
The largest of those camps was at
Port Hueneme, which would ship out
almost 4 million long tons of supplies
during World War II.
In contrast, Davisville, Rhode Island,
considered the birthplace of the Sea-
bees, shipped out 1.5 million long
tons.
Exhibits in this gallery include a
barber’s chair that is nearly identical
to one shown in a photo behind it — a
photo taken at Port Hueneme during
the war — and a display of the various
bees that came to represent the con-
struction battalions, or “CBs.”
“The museum has so many bees that
this exhibit will rotate every six months,”
Godbille said.
There’s also a breakdown of a seabag
— what each Seabee took with him on
deployment, foot powder included.
A small display is an ode to the home-
front. It includes a cutaway of a Quon-
set hut, which was installed by volun-
teering Seabees.
Also on display is the bell that was
used at Camp Parks, a San Francisco
Bay-area recuperation center for Sea-
bees returning home from the war, and
small arms that Seabees were trained
to shoot.
This gallery leads seamlessly into
“Seabees in the Atlantic Theater in
World War II.” Past the pontoon dis-
play is a preserved 37 mm German an-
titank gun and Nazi artifacts captured
by various members of the Naval Con-
struction Force.
One display features artifacts from
Morocco, the first time they have ever
been shown to the public.
“How do you display a fez in context
in an American military museum?”
Godbille asked. “We found a way.”
A favorite from the old museum has
found a niche: a deep sea diving rig used
during World War II. The suit weighs
200 pounds — the helmet alone weighs
54.
“Although the Atlantic Theater might
not receive as much attention as the
exploits of the Seabees in the Pacific,”
Godbille states, “the invasions of North
Africa, the Mediterranean and France
would have been impossible had Sea-
bees and CEC officers not perfected the
use of pontoon causeways and con-
struction of an artificial harbor vital
to keeping the fighting men ashore sup-
plied with ammunition, medical sup-
plies, food, vehicles and tools of
war.”
The exhibit ends with a mural of
Pearl Harbor. It blocks the entrance to
another gallery about the Pacific The-
ater, scheduled to open late next year.
