County blasts Navy for oversight Commissioners say Navy is ignoring local environmental compensation By JJ Swanson Jswanson@Sounpublishing,com
The Kitsap Board of County Commissioners sent a letter to the U.S. Navy expressing discontent over the lack of environmental spending in the county. In the Nov. 14 letter, the county took issue with the the Navy’s continued failure to spend money on Kitsap County environmental projects. Instead, the
BOCC said the Navy favored spending money to restore remote areas in Jefferson County. The supplement to the draft environmental statement, released this fall, informed the public on the level of environmental harm expected during construction of a second explosive handling wharf. The report also made a statement on the in-lieu fees that the Navy planned to pay the county for the inevitable damage. The in-lieu program provides money to to replace taxes to local governments because the federal government does not pay property tax. The in-lieu money in this case should be applied to restoring or cleaning up other habitats to compensate for the environmental impacts expected from the new wharf’s construction. The county argued that the language of
the supplemental EIS was too vague and that mitigation efforts were misappropriated. “We are astonished that there is no compensatory mitigation for Kitsap County locations in the Supplement. This critical project on our shoreline will negatively impact Kitsap County’s marine and nearshore environments. Yet, there is no compensatory mitigation,” stated the letter which was drafted by Patty Charnas, manager of environmental programs. Commissioners Charlotte Garrido, Robert Gelder, and Josh Brown also signed the letter. In their original comments to the draft environmental statement on April 28, the county suggested Big Beef Creek Estuary Restoration as a “pre-capitalized site” for the Navy’s mitigation efforts.

Four arrested for grave desecration Four men, including a Central Kitsap man and a Bremerton man, were arrested Wednesday in connection with the Veterans Day theft of 12 brass name plaques from a cemetery in Breidablik, according to The Kitsap County Sheriffs Department. Many of the graves were those of military veterans,” Two men, ages 28 and 38, were arrested in Poulsbo on charges of 1st
degree theft and trafficking in stolen property. Both were held on $100,000 bail, according to authorities. A third man, age 41, was arrested in Central Kitsap on similar charges and held on $50,000 bail. The fourth man, age 40, was arrested on Kitsap Way in Bremerton. charged with trafficking in stolen property and held on $35,000 The sheriffs office did not release the names of the three men arrested,
but did name Bremerton resident Robert James McDonald as the 40 year old. Authorities said that McDonald tried to sell the brass plaques to a scrap metal dealer in Gorst. The sheriff ’s office said that 10 of the plaques were found in a Chico area home. The plaque were cut into smaller pieces and that names were obliterated with a grinder, they said.

Navy teen charged after bringing gun to high schools A 15-year-old male was charged Monday for possessing a dangerous weapon on school facilities, according to authorities. The charges follow a Friday arrest for allegedly bringing the gun onto Central Kitsap and North Kitsap high schools’ property. The Central Kitsap School District student was also charged with seconddegree unlawful possession of a firearm and theft of a firearm in Kitsap County Juvenile Court, said Deputy Scott Wilson, Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office spokesman. An investigation began Thursday
and “through criminal investigative means” the department learned that the teenager was in possession of a firearm while on the premises of Central Kitsap High School, Wilson said. The teenager reportedly had the gun when he left the high school in Silverdale and brandished the weapon while provoking a fight with a North Kitsap High School student at Raab Park in Poulsbo. He then walked to North Kitsap High School, concealing the weapon, but was asked by school officials to leave because he was not a North Kitsap student. The teen walked to a nearby park

and reportedly fired one shot from the pistol. The firearm was allegedly stolen from the teen’s house on Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor. The gun was recovered Thursday evening from a Central Kitsap home that the teen had visited. The homeowner found the gun along a fence line and turned it over to sheriff’s deputies. The court ordered the juvenile be released from juvenile detention on personal recognizance, according to Wilson.

Our vote was no but our support should be yes The election is over, the ballots counted, and Proposition 1 (Veterans and Homeless levy) was rejected. The “lessons learned;” don’t propose a tax for an effort that does not clearly belong to government, make sure to define the specific need and the explain manner in which the tax dollars will be spent before asking for money. Having just rejected government operated service for the indigent, the people of Kitsap still must face the reality of problems associated with homelessness and those living in temporary shelters. The problem is real. It cannot solve itself. Solving the problem is up to those of us who are able to support others in need. Life happens and things don’t UEST always work out the way they are supposed to. OLUMN Now it’s our time to stand up and ACK make the difference. About 73,000 people voted on the levy. AMILTON Of that number about 29,000 voted for the levy and 44,000 voted against. Let’s put some real teeth behind those votes and make appropriate charitable donations to get the job done. Since the levy was for six years and “in addition to” existing charitable donation intentions, we should use the same criteria. Donations should go directly to Salvation Army Sally’s Camp , Coffee Oasis Teen Shelter, or to the United Way and should be designated for use in “homeless and indigent support.” Since those who voted in favor of Prop 1 were willing to pay their “share” and obligate their neighbors to do the same, they get to put up $25 a year for a a total of about $725,000. The “against” voters get to pony up the $12.50 they avoided in tax, which equals another $550,000. Combined, the donations will approach $1.27 million, all of which goes directly to fix the problem while none goes to government. Pledges and donations are on the “honor system.” I expect we will all do our part. Our direct donations will cover the immediate need for homeless and indigent persons. The County Commissioners also need to step up for veterans. The law establishing the Veterans Assistance Fund provides that

Close call at restaurant with kids When the kids asked, “What’s your favorite restaurant, Mom?” I had no idea they planned to take me there for my birthday. Otherwise, I would have fibbed and said “Wendy’s” or “UNO’s,” some place suitable for dinner with three children under the age of 11. Instead, and without hesitation, I told the boys that Thistles, a nice, romantic restaurant in our downtown area, is one of my favorite places for dinner. The next day, Dustin told me that he and the kids had made a reservation for us—all five of us—at Thistles for my birthday. Now, I come from a long line of cautious women. My grandmother hasn’t flown in decades. My mom has never played contact sports. And while I was in labor with my first child, I climbed eight flights of stairs to avoid the elevator. Everything in my body told me that going to a fancy restaurant with three young boys was dangerous. And yet, some of the women in my family also have unusual outlets for their repressed daring nature. For instance, my mom’s idea of an extreme sport is having a refrigerator that is nearly empty, or near enough to empty that she and dad are in danger of going hungry, if even for a day. “I love an empty fridge,” Mom says. When she is just to the brink of having nothing but an old box of baking soda, Mom goes to the store and stocks up again. You can almost see the rush of blood to her face when she returns. It’s

as if she might put down a sack of groceries, wipe her brow and AVY say, “Whew, that was a close one!” ISE Perhaps it was time for me to pick up an extreme sport, ARAH too. MILEY I said yes to the reservations at Thistles. And I felt good about my decision, until I woke up to my homemade birthday breakfast: dry toast, cereal swimming in spoiled milk, a Nurtigrain bar, a warm diet Dr. Pepper and a side of ricotta cheese. Yes, ricotta cheese. I had less than 12 hours to ensure that my children would fit in at Thistles. Later that day, Dustin helped the boys get into their coats and ties while I put on a nice dress. We met at the car, where Dustin and I said a silent prayer for what we were about to do. My heart beat in my ears. Thistles has low, romantic lighting and a man playing soft jazz in the corner. The tables are topped with fine cloth and candles. I watched as the boys absorbed the atmosphere. They were stunned and quiet. Owen spotted a waitress grinding pepper over someone’s pasta. “Dad, that’s the thing from Saturday Night Live,” he whispered, referring to the famous “Pepper Boy” skit staring Adam Sandler. “A pepper mill,” Dustin said. Owen smiled. “Do not be afraid of the a pepper,” he said in an Italian accent.

Veterans back to the drawing board after loss of Prop 1 Sales tax could be the answer By JJ Swanson jswanson@soundpublishing. com
Proposition 1 failed on election day. By the following day, members of the Kitsap County Veterans Advisory board gathered to decide on their next course of action to find funds for an increasing number of indigent veterans to be served in Kitsap County. “The levy got shot down. We’re right back where we were,” said Leif Benton, Kitsap County Human Services planner. “We didn’t lose anything, just didn’t gain anything either.” But for others, particularly
veterans, the loss of the levy was a more emotional experience. When Wednesday’s meeting opened up to public comment, local veterans expressed their discontent over the levy language, particularly in linking veterans issues with general human services which includes mental health, homelessness, and other topics not specific to veterans. Frustration centered on the fact that the proposition linked all the county’s human services with veterans’ needs and confused the public. That set the levy up for failure from the start. “Veterans have been shortsheeted long enough,” said Joel Courreges of Disabled American Veterans. However, Mark Lowe, board member, disagreed that human services dragged the levy down. “We actually got a lot of push back when vets were
tacked on. The public said, ‘You’re just using vets to push this through,” said Lowe. Board member Roth Hafer explained to disgruntled attendees that the linkage was actually intended to help the veteran community, especially those that need help but cannot qualify for veteran status. According to Hafer, under the revised code of Washington, a great number of indigent veterans in Kitsap county do not have

umbrella of Proposition 1 would have covered all types of veterans. “It’s discrimination against the vets that we were
looking to get around,” said Hafer. Courreges also pointed to

Retirees and veterans to receive 3.6% cost of living increase Kitsap Navy News staff
Following two years of denying a cost of living adjustment to veterans and retirees, Congress acted on Wednesday, Nov. 2 to pass legislation for a 3.6% COLA in military pensions, disability compensation, indemnity to survivors, and social security for the upcoming
year. The adjustment will be effective on December 1, 2011 but will not be reflected in pay until January of 2012. According to legislators, there were no adjustments for inflation in 2009 or 2010 because consumer prices were flat. However, organizations like the American Legion and the Veterans Affairs Department report that many have been hurting without the yearly adjustments. About 2.9 million people will be affected by the 2012 increase. Certain military retirees may also be eligible, but perhaps not for the full amount. Retired service members who entered on or after Aug. 1, 1986 and chose the REDUX retirement plan
will only receive a 2.6% COLA. The REDUX plan gave a $30,000 career status bonus at 15 years of service in exchange for future COLAs being calculated at 1% lower than the normal rate. Those that retired in 2011 will also not be eligible for the full amount since they already benefited from active duty pay in Jan. 2011. However, all future adjustments will be at the normal rate. Veterans must be eligible for disability compensation to see monetary benefit from this adjustment. According to the Department of Veterans Affairs that means having an injury or disease that happened while on active duty and an honorable discharge.

Never forgotten Local veteran of World War II, Korea and Vietnam passed By Douglas Stutz
Veterans Day this year fell on a unique numerical twist of time in our history; 11-11-11. That’s an aggregate trio, hat trick, and three-pointer all of the same. Unfortunately, one of our local veterans, William Frampton Ballinger, didn’t make it to 11-11-11. It wasn’t without trying, as he did in most things. Ballinger is one of many American veterans who made 11-11-11 the symbolic date that it is — a date set aside to honor and remember those who gave their all, and then some, for their country in time or war. Ballinger was 85. I didn’t really know him, but I knew of him and others like him; men (and women) who had fought and survived through
World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. Those three wars gave Ballinger his own trio, hat trick, and three-pointer of a sort that is a woven part of our nation’s military history during those trying times. His obituary reads like a primer of our country’s involvement in deadly engagements scattered across the globe. Ballinger participated in five beachhead landings in 1944 onto the Philippine Archipelago during the Pacific Campaign of World War II. He helped liberate those islands, charged with carrying out forward observer duties for artillery. When the Korean War broke out in 1950, Ballinger was back. He took part in the Inchon Landing, evaded capture
by Chinese Communist forces and even found himself swept away down the freezing waters of the Yalu River, all while serving again as a forward observer. The 1960s took him from the frozen Korean Peninsula to Can Tho, in South Vietnam’s Mekong Delta. He was again back at it, operating a communications center with the Signal Corps during the Tet Offensive of 1968. Ballinger wore the cloth of our nation in a career that spanned four decades. Those of us following stand on his shoulders, as well as those of the many other veterans living in Kitsap-area communities. Like a number of others, Ballinger chose to reside and retire in one of those communities. Ballinger was born on Feb. 17, 1926 and died on Oct. 30, 2011. Up until the end, his honor, courage and commitment continued to be evident to all, traits that are really the epitome of 11-11-11.

BRIG | FROM PAGE 1
Rock of Ages minister reaches out with a message of careful compassion a small operation. Though it has maximum security capability, it does not often exercise it. According to Chaplain Puttler, regional chaplain for Naval Base Kitsap, the average number of inmates at any given time is around 10 to 15. “The inmate population changes every day, but today it is about eight,� Puttler on Nov. 7. The brig is a military prison and is divided into three levels. Level one is for offenders who are sentenced to incarceration of one year of less, generally the period is closer to 31 days. The brig at Bangor is an example of a level one facility. Level two incarcerates inmates for a period of one month to five years. Level three is for sentences from five years to the death penalty. The U.S. disciplinary barracks at Fort Leavenworth and the NAVCONBRIG at Miramar in San Diego are two examples. Leavenworth houses 440 inmates while Miramar has the capacity for 372 prisoners. Because the brig at Naval Base Kitsap is considered a transitional facility, it cannot always get specialized attention for inmate ministries.
Chaplain Puttler explained that while other brigs have a designated prison chaplain, there is no specialized prison chaplain for the Bangor facilities. Instead, the three chaplains on base take turns assuming the necessary duties. The majority of brig work coming down to Puttler himself. “The Northwest is the only one that does it this way. We just don’t have the personnel,� said Puttler. There are currently nine chaplains in the regional command, two at Whidbey, two at Everett, three at Naval Base Kitsap, and two at CREDO. Outsiders, like civilian minister Lance Hohenstreet have stepped in to help. Hohenstreet believes that strong ministry and outreach is important even with prisoners that are in transitional facilities. “You can absolutely make an impact in a short amount of time. Ministry is just as important in the short term. There isn’t as much you can do in terms of a clinical environment which is what you find at longer term facilities like Miramar. But the experience of coming to the brig is a dramatic one. These guys are officers

or role models, and they have a high fall. I believe all it takes is a single decision to touch the life of a person who has hit rock bottom. It is planting the seed,� said Hohenstreet. Hohenstreet has been working with the brig at Bangor since 2004. He visits every Wednesday and has been granted an annual installation pass and full access to the brig by the chaplain’s office. The Army correctional command has also authorized Hohenstreet to come on their bases to lead programs. The minister explained that base commands are often wary of who they let into their facilities. “We don’t restrict who can come and go in terms of denominations, but we can’t give carte blanche for groups to come and go as they please and pester the inmates,� said Puttler. Hohenstreet leads a mandatory “prison prevention� seminar. He said that these are emotional classes that face anxiety, anger, conflict, and bitterness head on. The minister believes that these emotions are common in all inmates, whether military or not, and when left unexplored are the primary cause of turning back to crime. Civilian teachers and military chaplains are careful when teaching conflict or moral development classes to shy away from overtly Christian messages. “The Navy is a pluralistic organization: atheists, agnos-
tics, Christians, Muslims, no one is promoted over the other, you have to gravitate towards the various ideas to be effective and able to work in the environment,� said Puttler. Hohenstreet recalls an inmate at Bangor brig who was a self-proclaimed satanist. The prisoner sat in on the minister’s ethics classes. “Often they will attend because they’re bored and it’s something to do,� said Puttler. But Hohenstreet said that the student approached him afterwards to say that he enjoyed the class. Though the minister is himself a devout Baptist with a desire for inmates to find Christ, he is careful not to push these beliefs. “There are some restrictions legally in all prison facilities. We are restricted to some extent,� said Hohenstreet. Manipulation by inmates is also a concern for civilian volunteers and military chaplains. The so-called “jail house religion� where inmates pretend to find christ in order to get parole or favors happens just as frequently in the brig. “I had a chaplain ask me once, how many of your inmates are genuine Christians? I answered him, really the percentage is about the same as the people sitting in your church that are genuine Christians,� said Hohenstreet. Hohenstreet believes that just as prevalent as inmate manipulation of volunteers is the degrading of prisoners’ dignity. “People are people.
ence and sediment transport. The county letter revealed that, from verbal communications, the Navy decided that Big Beef Creek mitigation was “providing ‘too much’ mitigation in the face of the land and nearshore volumes of Dabob Bay.� Instead, the Navy supplement named the Dabob Natural Area and sites on Washington State park
land. “Under Washington State Parks proposal, the Navy would partner with Washington State Parks to restore, enhance, and preserve marine and intertidal habitat on property in Hood Canal,� wrote Sheila Murray, Navy external relations manager. However, the county argued that restoration of state parks is not a pressing enough environmental

issue for Navy funds. And the Dabob Bay project is too far away from the explosives handling wharf to have any positive impact for Kitsap County. “Locating mitigation activities on publicly owned and conserved land does not meet the temporal imperative,� wrote the county. The County suggested in its letter that the Navy reconsider mitigation efforts in Port Gamble Bay and forestlands. They argued that the estuary in North Kitsap County are “at very high risk from development and present a clear and highly appropri-
ate mitigation opportunity.� Charnas believes that the county and Navy can come together if the Navy will keep an open line of communication which was missing when drafting the supplemental. “Our letter on the draft EIS specifically requested to keep us included in mitigation planning. When the supplement published these sites, it was a surprise to us. It would have been nice if [the Navy] had included the stakeholders, Kitsap County included, at how they arrived at these specific sites. We needed to be included in the discussion,� said Charnas.
DENTAL HEALTH TIPS! You can have a healthy mouth and practice good oral hygiene, and yet experience a condition called gingival (gum) recession. Healthy gingival tissue forms a protective collar around a tooth. When the gingival tissue recedes, exposing the tooth’s root, sensitivity may result. Tooth root decay (root caries) may develop because the softer root surface decays more readily than the enamel on the tooth’s crown.

Sometimes we degrade those that are in legal trouble. An army chaplain once asked me,’so we talk to them like regular people?’ and I said, ‘no, they are regular people,� said Hohenstreet. According to the minister, no where is the line more fuzzy than in a military prison where the inmates may be decorated war veterans, most with training and discipline, marketable job skills, and core values. Many have seen combat and served honorably before their crimes. “Of course there are some very sick, very disturbed individuals in [the brig], but the ministry is still harder than in typical state prisons. It’s harder to draw lines between yourself and these clean cut people. All five of the branches have the core values, integrity, honor,� said Hohenstreet. Hohenstreet travels with Rock of Ages, a national prison ministry organization. He also does work with juvenile facilities and crime prevention groups. “If I can impact the prisoners’ lives, whether it’s through religious or non religious classes, get their priorities straight, and begin to deal with those angry emotions, then I’m happy. You have to remember, [these inmates] are going to be your neighbors one day. You can’t just ignore them and hope they go away.�

Exoskeletons support shipyard workers BREMERTON (NNS) – U.S. Navy shipyard workers are becoming modern day “iron men� using “exoskeletons� to maintain the nation’s ships at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility (PSNS & IMF). Exoskeletons are backpackcarried mechanical supports that augment a technician’s ability to carry and operate heavy mechanical tools. Developed by the U.S. Army, the Human Universal Load Carrier (HULC)/Zero-G exoskeleton system operates with a balanced zero-g arm technology and titanium legs that transfer physi-
cal effort to the ground. This mechanical assist to the arduous task of grinding has already demonstrated a significant increase in productivity, with initial data indicating grinding operations now require a third of the normally required time. “I could have gone longer, but I ran out of weld, and the grind disc wore out,� said Ransom Spurlock, a PSNS & IMF employee testing the HULC. Nine PSNS & IMF workers used the system for grinding testing. Noted benefits include improved feathering of the grind to the surrounding base metal with less
effort. One of the testers suffers from Fibromyalgia, a disability that causes muscle and joint fatigue, and the HULC enabled him to perform the task with ease. “I would never try a task like overhead grinding again without a system like this,� said Charles W. Osborne, PSNS & IMF employee. The shipyard intends to use additional systems for drill and drain hull cuts during the next USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76) maintenance availability while it continues to work with the Army to develop an industrialized version of the system.

SMILEY | FROM PAGE 4 They were dangerously close to whoopiecushion talk. I steered them away. “So, has every looked at the menu?� I asked. They didn’t realize that the “hardcover books� in front of them were actually menus. The waitstaff was exceptionally kind and patient with my family, even though they are not typically a restaurant for kids. Lindell ordered a grilled cheese sandwich, which was, according to him, the best he’s ever had, proving Dustin’s theory that even a sandwich can be made fancy if you cut it diagonally. Ford and Owen ordered pasta with butter. We went through alot of butter. Never mind the delicate pat Thistles usually provides for the small basket of bread; eventually the waitress brought over half a stick. Everyone was quiet while they ate. This amazed me. They didn’t talk with their mouths open, and they kept their napkins in their laps. However, I did notice that Ford was scarfing down his
pasta. When he sat back, he smiled and rubbed his stomach. “That was the single most buttery thing I’ve ever eaten,� he said, looking like he’d just finished Thanksgiving dinner. Owen agreed: Best boiled noodles he’s ever had. There’s a reason Thistles is one of my favor-
ites: I’ve never been disappointed with my meal. But I had no idea they could make a five-star sandwich and pasta, too. When we walked out of the restaurant, I felt a rush of relaxation similar to when the body’s adrenaline abruptly lowers after a near-miss on the highway. “That was a close one,� I said to Dustin.

International relations enrich local ex-pilot’s life By BRETT CIHON bcihon@soundpublishing.com
Three decades after serving in West Germany during the height of the Cold War, Air Force veteran Donnie Francis is still making military friends. He just never thought they’d come from the other side of the Iron Curtain. “I could never have imagined I would be friends with someone from the other side of the line,” the former helicopter pilot said. “Never.” Of course, Francis may never have imagined he would one day marry an attractive redhead from Siberia, and through her friends meet a retired Russian colonel, Yuri Skripnichenko. But as he marks Veterans Day today, 20 years after his helicopter was shot down in the Gulf War, his life is richer for the Russian connections he’s made. Francis, 55, was born in a little gray house off Sidney Road in Port Orchard. His mother was a former Miss Kitsap. His father was active in local civic organizations. Francis knew from a young age Port Orchard was a spe-
cial place. “I’ve always found comfort in my soul living in Port Orchard,” Francis said. His family moved away from Port Orchard before he started high school. Soon after, in 1974, Francis joined the Air Force and served more than 18 years as a helicopter pilot and liaison officer. He rose to the rank of Chief Master Sergeant before a Cobra helicopter he was flying was shot down in 1991 during Operation Desert Storm. For all his military service, Francis said it was the time he spent in Frankfurt, Germany, during the Cold War that had the biggest effect on him. He flew patrol missions along the West-East German border from 1976 to 1981. Looking down at the Russian gunners and tanks lined up in East Germany, he knew a catastrophic war between East and West could break out at any time. “I was trained to expect war,” Francis said. “We were told it was imminent.” Of course, that war never broke out. Francis left Frankfurt. And when his helicopter was shot down in 1991, extensive back and neck injuries ended his active military career.
Remembering nothing of the crash, Francis woke up in a German military hospital. He spent time trying to recuperate in Germany and in Texas. In constant physical pain, he moved back to Port Orchard in 1997 to try and recapture the peace he knew as a boy. But things were not the same. Depressed and out of sorts, even the comfort of Port Orchard didn’t go far in cheering him up. It wasn’t until his 24-year-old son, Troy, suggested Francis try to meet a romantic interest on the Internet that his life began to turn around. “My son got tired of me being single,” Francis said. “So I decided to look online.” He soon met a Russian woman from Siberia named Irina. After six months of what Francis called “a great connection,” Irina came to Port Orchard on a visitor’s visa. It wasn’t long before the two were married and she moved to Port Orchard with her three Russian-born children, who went on to graduate from South Kitsap High School. “I used to think love was only for fairy tales,” Francis said. “But I found it with Irina.” It was a fairy tale love that came from a place unusually connected to Francis. Being with Irina reminded him of the time he spent in West Germany and the Russian soldiers he flew over on a weekly basis. He was reminded of the faces of men looking up at him in his helicopter. Faces that could have easily belonged to his friend, Yuri. “Yuri was waiting down there,” said Francis. “He definitely saw me flying overhead.”
Francis first met Yuri through Irina. Shortly after they were married, Irina began attending meetings and get-togethers held by other Kitsap-area Russian natives. At one particular dinner, Francis hit it off with a gray-haired, friendly man from Russia who was visiting his daughter. Though Yuri and Francis spoke through Irina and Yuri’s daughter Alya as translators, the two men from different sides of the world immediately shared a connection. “They understood each other without speaking the same language,” Irina said. “They are soul mates.” While talking, Yuri told Francis he was a retired Russian army colonel. He also told Francis he was stationed as a gunner east of Frankfurt during the Cold War. A realization came over Francis. Sitting across from him at the table was a man who had looked up at him
while manning anti-aircraft artillery on the enemy side of the line. A man he could have fought in battle. Francis told Yuri about the coincidence. In celebration of their meeting, the two men shared vodka and let the stories flow. Right off the bat, the similarities between the two old soldiers was striking. “We were so similar that you wonder how the Cold War ever came to be,” Francis said. According to him, Yuri said Russian military forces were told an attack from the West could come at any time. “I told him, ‘that’s funny, I was waiting for you guys to attack us,’” Francis said. The two veterans have been friends ever since their first meeting. They talk frequently online and Yuri has visited America three times, most recently earlier this month. The two spent time at Francis’s new Gig Harbor
Seahawks honor service members SEATTLE (NNS) – The Seattle Seahawks honored Pacific Northwest service members with a 22-17 win over the Baltimore Ravens during their annual Military Appreciation Day game against the Baltimore Ravens at Century Link Field in Seattle, Nov. 13.

One soldier had the opportunity to lead the Seahawks out of the tunnel hoisting the American flag to start the game. “What a great tribute to our military members who serve and fight to protect our country,” said Dean St. Myers, a spectator in attendance. “Each and every one of them has definitely earned my

home; he and Irina moved there from Port Orchard a year and a half ago. The two spent their time together flying a model helicopter Francis built and cooking steaks. They still need an interpreter, but their bonds are apparently stronger than language. The duty and service to country all military men feel, Francis said, are pervasive. “Soldiers respect each other — no matter what country they come from,” Francis said. Francis usually spends Veterans Day hanging out with his family and visiting the graves of his grandfather and stepdad — both military veterans. He plans to call his son Troy, who is in the Navy. And of course, Yuri will also be on his mind. “Soldiers are soldiers because they love their country,” Francis said. “That was the same for Yuri as it was for me.”
respect, and this is all well deserved.” The “12th Man” flag was raised by George Hickman, one of the six known living Tuskegee Airmen in Seattle. “This was awesome,” said Chief Aviation Electronics Technician Jeff Smith, of Patrol Squadron One. “It was my first time doing this, and it’s an amazing experience to be out there receiving so much support from the community of Seattle.” Sailors who participated in presenting the American and Navy flags said they felt lucky to have the opportunity.
Obama announces expanded U.S. military presence in Australia By Donna Miles American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama joined Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard Wednesday to announce expanded military-to-military relationships between the two countries as they commemorated the 60th anniversary of the Australia-New Zealand-U.S. alliance. Speaking in the Australian capital of Canberra, the leaders announced closer collaboration between the U.S. forces and the Australian Defense Force. Beginning in mid-2012, company-size rotations of 200 to 250 Marines will deploy near Darwin. Gillard said the presence will expand to a force of 2,500 over the next several years. This rotational deployment is significant because it allows the United States and Australia to build capacity and cooperation, the president said. “But it also allows us to meet the demands of a lot of partners in the regionâ€? in terms of training, exercises and “the presence that’s necessary to maintain the security architecture of the region,â€? he added. The expanded relationship will ensure “we’re going to be in a position to more effectively strengthen the security of both of our nations and this region,â€? Obama said. It also will ensure an ability to respond faster to crises and provide humanitarian and disaster relief, he said. “This will allow us to be able to respond in a more timely fashion and also equip a lot of ‌ smaller countries who may not have the same capacity,â€? he said. “It allows us to equip them so that they can respond more quickly as well.â€? The expanded U.S.Australia military relationship also “sends a clear message of our commitment to this region, a commitment that is enduring and unwaveringâ€? the president said. “I am making it clear that the United States is stepping up its commitment to the entire Asia-Pacific [region],â€? the president said, thanking Australia for its leadership role in the region.

“As it has been for six decades� he continued, “our alliance is going to be indispensable to our shared future, the security we need and the prosperity that we seek, not only in this region, but around the world.� The talks spanned a range of challenges that extend beyond the region, including the International Security Assistance Force mission in Afghanistan, the president said.
“Obviously, this has not been an easy mission for either of our countries,� he said, expressing condolences for Australia’s fallen. “But we both understand what’s at stake -- what happens when al-Qaida has safe havens. We’ve seen the awful loss of life, from 9/11 to Bali.� Obama cited progress in the transition process in Afghanistan as security responsibility is transferred to Afghan security forces.

Timberlake reflects on Marine Corps Ball By Donna Miles American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON – The blogosphere is still reverberating with Justin Timberlake’s glowing account of his experience attending the 236th Marine Corps Birthday Ball in Richmond, Va. “The event ‌ turned out to be one of the most moving evenings I’ve ever had,â€? the pop singer and actor wrote in a blog post on his website after attending the Nov. 12 event. Marine Corps Cpl. Kelsey De Santis invited Timberlake to her unit’s ball this summer via YouTube. She jokingly told him that if he couldn’t attend, “All I
have to say is, cry me a river!� – a reference to Timberlake’s hit single. Timberlake said he felt flattered by the invitation and went into the evening knowing he “would have an evening that I wouldn’t forget� to share with his friends. “What I didn’t know was how moved I would be by the whole experience,� he wrote. Timberlake had special words for his date, who he said went out of her way to ensure he enjoyed himself. “I have to tell you, it’s not every day that I meet a 23-year old girl and she’s more worried about if I’m having fun or if I’m comfortable,� he wrote. He said he loved meet-
ing De Santis’ friends, and felt an immediate connection with them. “It hit me all of a sudden that these were the type of people that look after us and our freedom -- humble, concerned for others before themselves,� he wrote. “This was the type of person our Marine Corps was building.

Study examines dwell times By Elaine Sanchez
American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON – Service members who spend more time at home between deployments may have a greater chance of being diagnosed with a mental health disorder than those with briefer dwell times, a Defense Department analysis has revealed, but officials urge further research. The study, conducted by the Armed Forces Health Surveillance Center, revealed that the percentage of service members diagnosed with mental health disorders after repeat deployments – their second through fifth -- increased as dwell times prior to the deployments lengthened, surveillance center officials explained. The report, they noted, reflects only data for service members who sought help and received a medically diagnosed mental health condition from credentialed providers. These results, published in the Medical Surveillance Monthly Report, are based on data from the Defense Medical Surveillance System spanning an eight-year period. The study encompassed more than 1 million male and more than 150,000 female active-duty service members who deployed at least once in support of operations Enduring
Freedom, Iraqi Freedom or New Dawn. The report’s authors offered some possible reasons behind the dwell time findings. Longer dwell times may offer service members the opportunity to completely readjust to being home, they suggested. It then may be more difficult to transition back to a warrior mindset on the next deployment. In contrast, service members who are home for a brief time may not fully adjust and, as a result, are better able to psychologically handle subsequent deployments. Another possibility for the finding, they suggest, is that some service members may temporarily be unable to deploy again or may be delayed due to a medical condition, such as a mental health disorder, which can result in a longer dwell time. In these cases, an increase in mental health disorders correlates with a longer dwell time, they noted, but one doesn’t necessarily cause the other. Air Force Col. Christopher Robinson, deputy director of psychological health for the Defense Centers of Excellence for Psychological Health and Traumatic Brain Injury, offered his own interpretation of the data. He suggested that the longer service members are home, the more likely they are to seek

services or that a spouse or friend will encourage them to seek help. Service members who have relatively short dwell times tend to keep their guard up, he explained, and may cover up symptoms or slough off suggestions to seek help knowing they’re soon to deploy. But, the “longer they’re home and connect with people, the greater the chance someone will tell them they’re drinking too much or they seem depressed, if that is indeed the case,� he said. “Rather than thinking that longer dwell times causes more mental health diagnoses, I’d rather think that longer dwell times give service members time to seek help appropriately,� Robinson said. This fits in with the data, he added, since it only reflects service members who received medical diagnoses of a mental health condition from a credentialed provider. “I still stand by the notion that longer dwell times are helpful for the health of our service members,� the doctor noted, citing results from the 2009 and 2011 Mental Health Assessment Tools. MHAT teams surveyed behavioral health personnel in-theater, who concurred that longer dwell times could result in less mental health problems and better morale. The study also showed an increase in the number of service members with diagnosed mental health conditions after the first deployment and through the third, and then a general decline in the number of service members with mental health disorders on subsequent deployments. This finding is interesting, the report’s authors said, since people often have the impression that deployments have a

Robinson said this may be due to what he calls the “resilience effect.� The more service members deploy, he explained, the more they know what to expect and are better able to weather adversity. The data also may be reflecting the fact that people who stay in the service and take on repeat deployments already have the resilience to weather challenges. Others may choose to leave the service or are held back from repeat deployments due to diagnosed mental health conditions. Other results included higher percentages of service members in health care careers being diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. The proportion of health care workers with PTSD increased more sharply than those in combat occupations, the report revealed. In some cases, officials suggested, medical workers may be exposed to death and injury on more constant basis than those in combat occupations, and, as a result, are more susceptible to mental health issues. Additionally, younger service members and female

service members were diagnosed with a mental health condition more frequently than their older counterparts. This may be due to the fact that, as people age, they have better coping mechanisms, Robinson said. “As we age and mature, there is more of a chance that bad things can happen,� he explained, and as a result people build resilience by making it through these challenging events. “That’s what resilience is -- facing adversity with courage and fortitude.� As for the gender-related finding, women in general are more likely to seek mental health care than men, the report said. This doesn’t mean they’re less resilient, Robinson noted, but that females tend to seek care more often. Overall, the findings bear a closer look, Robinson said. The fact that some of the results were unexpected, such as the dwell time issue, only underscores that need. Other findings, such as the increasing rates of mental health issues among health care providers, can help the Defense Department better tailor programs and address a growing need. The analysis, Robinson noted, also points to the

importance of seeking mental health care without fear of repercussion. Perhaps one of the reasons the data is showing an increase in mental health disorders, he suggested, is that more people are seeking help without fear of career repercussion. Officials will continue to work to combat the stigma of seeking help, he added, through education and awareness. “We know that combat exposure is a risk factor for some of these problems,� Robinson said. “We need to recognize that and make sure to provide services for these service members and these families, and put out a consistent message of the importance of seeking help. “The earlier we get help the better,� he added. “The longer we wait the worse things typically become.� Service members and their family members who need mental health care can access many online resources to help identify and address issues, Robinson said, such as Afterdeployment.org, and the Real Warriors Campaign. They also can contact a chaplain, health care provider or a supervisor. “Suffering in silence is not the way to go,� he said.

Many lives for carrier USS Bataan from March 17 to May 30, 1945. Aircraft from Bataan assisted in sinking the Japanese submarine I-56 on April 18. Retiring to the Philippines briefly, the carrier joined the 3rd Fleet for operations against the Japanese homeland from July 10 to Aug. 15. After Japan capitulated, the carrier was then ordered back to the United States arriving in New York on Oct. 17, 1945. Bataan was then assigned to “Magic Carpet� duty, steaming several times to various European ports bringing veterans back to New York. Bataan then sailed for Philadelphia Navy Yard arriving Jan. 10, 1946. The carrier went out of commission and into reserve on Feb. 11, 1947. When the Korean conflict broke out, Bataan was manned up, and recommissioned on May 13, 1950 at Philadelphia. In early July, the ship sailed for San Diego and once loaded with Air Force cargo and personnel, steamed to Tokyo Bay arriving Nov. 16. Bataan then sailed for Korean waters arriving Dec. 15 and remained in the area until June 1951 as
Twelve battle stars earned by light carrier in World War II and Korea Kitsap Navy News
The light carrier USS Bataan (CVL-29) was originally built as a light cruiser named USS Buffalo (CL-99) at New York Shipbuilding Corp., of Camden, N.J. But the needs of the fleet commanders in the Pacific during World War II ultimately had the ship reclassified and converted. Bataan was commissioned Nov. 17, 1943, displaced 11,000 tons and was 623 feet long. With a draft of 26 feet, it could attain a top speed of 32 knots. The ship’s roster showed 1,569 men assigned to the Independence class ship. Bataan had 26, 40 mm antiaircraft guns for defense of topside areas. Rushed to the Pacific after shakedown opera-
tions out of New York, Bataan had her initial engagement with the Japanese off Hollandia in the Gilbert Islands on April 21-24, 1944. Following this action were air strikes against strongholds at Truk, Satawan, and Ponape. Bataan then moved on with air strikes at Saipan in the Marianas, and the first and second air raids on the Bonin Islands, southeast of the Japanese mainland. Bataan aircraft also flew attacks during the Battle of the Phillippines Sea in June 1944. It then returned to the United States for an overhaul. With repairs complete, the carrier steamed back into the Pacific with Task Force 58 and participated in fleet raids in support of Okinawa operations

its aircraft flew sorties in support of ground forces. The carrier steamed for the United States on June 2, and after a brief stop in San Diego, sailed for Bremerton arriving on July 2 for an overhaul. Returning to San Diego on Nov. 20, Bataan was put to sea again on Jan. 27, 1952 en route for Yokosuka, Japan and on to Buckner Bay, Okinawa. The carrier conducted

The ship rotated operations between Japan and Korea throughout the summer of 1952, carrying personnel and supplies to the fighting area and launching strikes against the enemy. Bataan left the Korean conflict on Aug. 11, and returned to San Diego only to return two months later to operate off the Korean coast until May 10. Then it departed for San Diego where it entered an overhaul that was followed by local training until July 31. Bataan sailed one last time to Pearl Harbor and on to Yokosuka and Kobe,

In 1959, it was reclassified as an auxiliary aircraft transport, the ABT-4. But it never served in that capacity. In Sept. 1959, the ship was stricken from the Navy list and sold to Nicola Joffe Corp. a scrap firm headquartered in Beverly Hills, Calif.

the souring of public opinion following the 2010 funding switch as a reason for failure. In 2010, a $300,000 “surplus� in the Veterans’ Assistance Fund was transferred to Kitsap County’s general operations budget – in accordance with state law. “The levy failed because we couldn’t get the need across to the people. All they see is that the veterans gave up their yearly fund [to the general fund] because they had too much money. But someone is to blame here because the money is now gone. What did they do with it? $335,000 was given away,� said Courreges. Hafer explained that the 2010 veterans fund was artificially inflated by a rise in property values and the state grant for “carte blanche� indigent burials. “It ballooned up to a million, but those two factors just do not exist anymore,� said Hafer. “Legislation has got to change in order to better protect the fund,� agreed Lowe. “It’s our responsibility to bring something to the commissioners,� said Courreges.
Moving forward, the board is looking at two options to cover funding they say will fall below needs next year, special fundraising and asking for an increase of one tenth of a percent of sales tax. The sales tax option is authorized under state legislation for use in “chemical dependency or mental health treatment services or therapeutic courts.� One tenth of 1 percent would raise approximately $3.1 million for veterans fund. It can be approved by a vote of the Board of County Commissioners or a popular vote. Mason County Commissioners recently voted to take the one tenth option for mental health services in their county after a 2009 move to balance their general budget with “surplus funds.� According to Courreges and several supporting board members, a good appropriation of part of these funds would be the establishment of the muchdiscussed veterans’ court in Bremerton. Mark San Souci, Northwest liaison for the Department of Defense,

informed the board that veterans’ courts have gained the interest of senators and legislators around the county who are interested in sponsoring bills in the Senate and the House. Models for veterans’ courts in Oregon, Idaho, and throughout Washington have started as grassroots movements at the city level. The success of these courts has encouraged many veterans associations. “Our efforts are at 10,000 to 20,000 feet up now, but you all are on the ground level, making things happen. County action is leading the state,� said San Souci. Lowe suggested that the board continue discussions of the sales tax option and using a portion of it for veterans courts and then revisit the issue at their December meeting. “There is anger on both sides and we need a cool down period of 30 days or so, get the word back from the streets before approaching the public with action,� said Lowe.
