I would like to thank everyone on the base for their support of this year’s Navy Ball. We had a great turnout, CAPT Brad Goetsch, USN (ret.) our current Churchill County manager and former NAS Fallon Commanding Offi cer gave a great speech

Skipper Says

and a great time was had by all. Th at is just the kind of trifecta that anyone could enjoy and on top of everything else we had the opportunity to wish the Navy a happy 233rd birthday. Th e month of October also saw the opening of our new Family Fitness Center over in housing. John Stadler, the head of our MWR Program, and Marcia Rickabaugh, our Health and Wellness Director, led a team eff ort in putting this facility together and obtaining the equipment to outfi t it. It is our hope that our housing residents will fi nd the Family Fitness Center a useful alternative to our

Base Gym and that they will take advantage of this facility. As I have pointed out in a previous column, we will be closing the year strong by hosting CVW-7 right up until Th anksgiving and then we will have CVW11 here right up until the Friday before Christmas. Even though we will be busy and the holidays are right around the corner, I would like everyone to stay focused on doing their job safely and ensuring that we are providing the visiting air wings with the best possible support and training they will fi nd anywhere in the Navy.

Have a Great & Safe Month!

Thank you Fallon for voting me

What You Should Know About the Flu Every year more than 20 percent of Americans get sick with the fl u, also known as infl uenza. Th e fl u is a contagious respiratory virus that can cause mild to severe illness and, at times, may lead to death. Th e fl u usually enters the body through mucous membranes in the mouth, nose or eyes. When a person with the fl u coughs or sneezes the virus becomes airborne and anyone nearby may inhale it. TRICARE recommends you get an annual fl u vaccination to prevent or lessen the severity of the fl u. TRICARE offers the following two types of vaccines: • Th e fl u shot – an inactivated vaccine containing a killed virus and given with a needle. Th is form of the vaccine may be used in all age groups. • Th e nasal-spray fl u vaccine (Flu Mist) – a vaccine made with live, weakened fl u viruses that do not cause the fl u. Th is form of the vaccination is limited only to healthy people who are not pregnant aged 2 to 49 years. Who Should Get Vaccinated? • All children aged 6 to 59 months • Adults aged 50 years and older • Persons aged 2 to 64 years with underlying chronic medical conditions • All women who are pregnant during the infl uenza season • Children aged 6 months to 18 years on chronic aspirin therapy • Health care workers involved in direct patient care • Out-of-home caregivers and household contacts of children less than 59 months of age and person at high risk for severe complications from infl uenza Who Can Get Flu Mist? • Persons 2 to 49 years who desire the vaccination • Age 2 to 49 years otherwise healthy persons Who Should Not Get the Flu Mist! • Anyone with chronic medical conditions • Pregnant Patients, or women who are breastfeeding • People who care for newborns 0-6 months. • Military Aviators Children under 6 months cannot receive the flu shot or mist. Children 6 months to 8 years receiving the vaccine for the first time need to receive 2 does of the vaccine 4 weeks apart. Now taking orders for smoked and deep fried Thanksgiving turkeys.

We can cater your holiday parties.

Side Effects of the Flu Vaccine: A As with other vaccines you should be o aware of possible side eff ects. Th e most t common side eff ects are soreness at the L vaccination site. Other side eff ects may p include fever, fatigue and sore muscles. o These side effects may begin 6 to 12 hours a after vaccination and may last up to two c days. c s You should know that the fl u vaccine t may contain some egg protein, which can i cause an allergic reaction. If you or a family t member is allergic to eggs or have ever had b a serious allergic reaction to the fl u vaccine, b consult with your health care provider before getting vaccinated. a W Flu symptoms can be mild or severe, and t may include any of the following (These s symptoms are very rare to get from the n actual vaccine): fi • Fever a • Headache c • Chills b • Extreme tiredness c • Severe cough r • Sore throat b • Runny or stuff y nose • Muscle aches m • Gastro-intestinal symptoms, such as w nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea b o Some fl u complications include bacterial r pneumonia, dehydration and worsening D of chronic medical conditions, such as congestive heart failure, asthma or diabetes. Children may get sinus problems and ear infections. You should contact your Primary Care Manager if conditions worsen.

How to prevent giving or getting the flu: • Avoid close contact with sick people. • Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing or sneezing • Wash you hands • Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs are oft en spread when a person touches something that is contaminated and then touches their eyes, nose or mouth Treating the Flu: • Resting • Drinking plenty of liquids • Avoid alcohol and tobacco TRICARE covers fl u shots based on the Center for Disease Control current fl u season guidelines. TRICARE only covers fl u shots if it’s administered in a doctor’s offi ce.

Land of Opportunity America has oft en been called the Land of Opportunity. As immigrants entered through Ellis Island, seeing the Statue of Liberty, there was this sense that here was a place to begin life anew. Th ey were limited only by their abilities and their desires. If a person worked hard enough, he or she could become much more than they ever could in the old country. Today, America stands as that curious anomaly among the nations. It is a nation that celebrates its diversity, a country that welcomes those from other shores, and from many backgrounds creates one voice. We are truly blessed. We are a land of opportunity because at heart we are a kind and decent people. When misfortune happens, we are eager to open our pocketbooks and roll up our sleeves to help. Th is charity and good neighbor outlook extends to disasters of fi re, fl ood, and wind that may strike clear across the coast or just up the road. Th is civic sense of responsibility may involve being part of the local school system, coaching a sports team, helping to keep a road (and the environment) clean. We are blessed with good people and great citizens. Sacred scripture tells us that to whom much is given, much is expected. Another way of looking at it is as we have been blessed, we ought to be a blessing to others. In this time of Th anksgiving, we are reminded just how much we have received. Despite recent economic turmoil, we have

a place to sleep, food to eat, shelter from the elements. We have the ability to work with our hands, our hearts, and our heads. We have the privilege of being wanted, to be productive, to give something back. We have been entrusted by the people of our fair land to keep them safe and protected. We receive the thanks of our grateful nation for our service. Just appear in public in uniform and you know this to be true. Th is base is also a land of opportunity. Especially when I meet the new arrivals that come by my offi ce for check-ins, I ask them what their plans are; when are they going to enroll in college, what local sights they are going to see, or how they are going to get involved in their command or community. Th e chapel is no diff erent. It is more than simply “church on Sundays.” Th e Chapel off ers plenty of opportunities. It is here for hosting Command training and ceremonies; for counseling be it personal, marital or spiritual; we can help with COMRELS or Suicide and Stress Awareness; for helping Sailors get back on track or assisting them through a crisis. Even now, we are looking for volunteers to help start a Good News Club for young boys and girls. And, oh yes, we do church on Sundays. And if you have specifi c spiritual needs, we will ensure those needs are met. Th e Chapel is blessed by having such great people here on the base, and our desire is to be a blessing to you – in this great land of opportunity.

Whine or Dine… In America today, we have been able to pigeon hole most restaurant fare into categories. If I say I am craving Chinese, Italian or seafood, it is not diffi cult to fi nd a restaurant that caters to one of those specifi c tastes. Ironically, it is oft en more diffi cult to defi ne “American” food. Fortunately, Joe’s Diner in Reno has come to the rescue and helped defi ne just what traditional American food is. I recently discovered Joe’s Diner, located at 6350 S. Virginia St in Reno. Joe’s is an old-fashioned, 50’s style diner complete with jukeboxes on the table and homespun milkshakes. Serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, Joe’s is most commonly known for their fantastic hamburgers and their daily specials. If you visit them Monday through Friday between 3-5pm, the house special is buy one hamburger and get one free. It’s a great deal for those planning a late lunch or early dinner. During my visit at Joe’s, I ordered their guacamole cheese burger and fries. It

was one of the best burgers I have had in a long time. Everyone in my party had a diff erent kind of burger from the menu and thoroughly enjoyed it. Along with the burgers, the fries were fresh and served up in a paper lined basket, just like they were 50 years ago. Th eir milkshakes are also delectable, coming in classic fl avors and mixed up in an old fashioned milkshake machine. I opted to fi nish my meal up with a slice of apple pie just to stick with the classic American theme. It was tasty but not homemade (as our waitress pointed out). Making homemade pies would be the one thing I would recommend to Joe’s. It’s always a treat to fi nish your meal with something traditional and homemade. All in all, it was a refreshing experience I would recommend to anyone looking for good American fare. Th e ambiance of the diner somehow transports you to a time when restaurants and menus were less complicated, burgers reined supreme and

the hardest decision of the night would be what fl avor of milkshake to enjoy. Ah, the good-old days. So the next time you are in the mood for a classic American meal - a hamburger, fries and a Coke - take a trip back to America’s golden age and give Joe’s a try. You won’t be disappointed. by Erica I. Peña-Vest

From fiscal years 2005 thru 2007 the Navy discharged 11,000 Sailors because of drugs or alcohol. The cost to separate one Sailor and train their replacement can be as much as $150,000 so over one billion dollars was used the last three years for this process alone, said Roxas.

Frederick L. Roundy (PW Offi ce) was also presented with a SFWPD Fallon OIC LOA and command plaque for his unwavering eff orts resulting in the rehabilitation of SFWPD Fallon Hangar Two spaces onboard NAS Fallon.

Construction Battalion FIVE to mark the successful completion of his most recent assignment. AM1(AW) Jeff ery M. Decker was recognized as SFPWD Fallon’s Senior Sailor of the Th ird Quarter for his eff orts as the driving force behind the documentation of countless audits, monitors, and qualifi cations across 13 work centers and 38 maintenance programs. He identifi ed program defi ciencies early, resulting in a 67 percent increase in “On Track” programs during the latest Commander, Strike Fighter Wing, U.S. Pacifi c Fleet Maintenance Program Assist.

Child and Youth Programs win $25,000 Music Program Grant

FitFactor Winners Naval Air Station Fallon

12 • November 2008

Need to Know

When seven staff members of Fallon’s Child and Youth Programs (CYP) signed up for the Staff FitFactor contest in November 2007, it was to get fi t and eat healthy while having fun. Th eir participation was also in part to show children at the Fallon Youth Center they could do it. As the staff participants exercised more and added nutritious food choices to their diets, they were awarded points. Little did they know that their consistent participation would win a $25,000 Music Program Grant for their youth center. FitFactor was initially off ered by Commander Navy Installation Command to youth program children up to age 18 who were able to use the computer and internet. Tracy Siebecker, a member of Fallon’s CYP staff played a big part in the kids’ success as well as that of the staff . “It is a great program and the kids love it,” said Tracy. “I made sure the kids were all enrolled in the program and logged points daily. When we enrolled in the program we had to watch what we ate, be more active and set a good example. If the kids saw us eating unhealthy foods they would let us know it would count against us when we logged our daily points,” Tracy added. Participants were able to earn up to 100 points daily doing such activities as walking, jogging, gardening, washing dishes, and making healthy food choices. It

was not a small challenge as the Fallon youth center Staff FitFactor Team was competing against youth centers Navy wide. “We wanted to set a good example for the kids and that is what helped us to win. As we reached diff erent levels we would congratulate each other,” explained Cassandra Runnels, Fallon’s CYP Director and one of the seven participants. ”When we motivated the kids to log points it kept us motivated to log points as well. Th e program provided the incentive for the kids to be more active, eat less junk food and help out with chores at home. Most important, it was fun for both the staff and the children.” When the team of seven received the news that they had won a $25,000 Music Program Grant they were delighted. “We are really pleased about winning and plan to use the grant to add music instructors, and purchase instruments for classroom instruction,” said Cassandra. “With a structured music program the kids will be able to learn and practice regularly.” When Sophia Martinez, age six, heard the news, she told her Mom, “I have to log my FitFactor points in right now, it is very important so we can win another contest!” Renee, Sophia’s mom, who works at Fallon’s Fleet and Family Support Center said, “As a parent it is very exciting to see the kids benefi ting from this contest. Kudos to the NAS Fallon Child and Youth Center Program for winning!” Navy youth can get signed up for FitFactor at their base Navy youth center. For more information visit www.navygetfi t.com
