U.S. Ambassador Visits Rota, SpainThe U.S. Ambassador to Spain and Andorra and

the 3rd Air Force Commander visited Naval Station Rota, Spain Mar. 31 delivering a message of appre-ciation to Spanish and U.S. forces here.

Joint Task Force Odyssey Dawn was disestab-lished Mar. 30; however, U.S. efforts remain in place to support NATO’s Unified Protector mission.

Naval Station Rota continues to provide support for operations in conducted by the Air Force’s 457th Air Expeditionary Group, composed of: the 965th Ex-peditionary Airborne Air Control Squadron, the 116th Expeditionary Command and Control Squadron and the 1st Combat Communications Squadron.

U.S. Ambassador to Spain and Andorra the Hon-orable Alan D. Solomont, said one of the focuses of his visit was to let the Spanish know how much the United States appreciates their partnership and the Spanish offer to host coalition forces at their bases in Rota and Moron.

“The relationship between the U.S. and Spain has never been stronger than it is right now. The military-to-military relationship has been steady and strong throughout the last decade; therefore, the Spanish responded immediately to our request for support towards the mission,” said Solomont. “The partner-ship around Operation [United Protector] is simply a reflection of the very strong relationship that exists between our countries and between our militaries.”

U.S. military and collation forces are supporting the international response to the unrest in Libya and enforcement of United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1973. UNSCR 1973 authorizes all necessary measures to protect civilians in Libya under threat of attack by Gadhafi regime forces.

“The United States was, and continues to be part of a coalition of willing nations that represent a wide range of beliefs and ethnicities,” said Commander Naval Activities Spain Capt. Bill Mosk, “I am ex-tremely grateful to our Spanish allies for allowing us to support our Air Force personnel and enabling them to complete their mission.”

457th Air Expeditionary Group Commander Col Jim Wildes said, “From the minute we hit the ground here, support has been outstanding. Spain is gra-cious to provide us the opportunity to work from their naval base, and the relationship between U.S. and Spain, as far as my mission support goes, has been absolutzely seamless.”

“The team here at NAVSTA has been working non-stop to ensure our transient personnel are well taken care of and able to meet the mission,” said Mosk. “The amount of teamwork between our mili-tary, whether Navy or Air Force, and civilian personnel has been outstanding

M C P O N Te s t i f i e s b e f o r e Congress on Qua l i t y o f L i fe

WASHINGTON (NNS) -- Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy (MCPON)(SS/SW) Rick D. West and other senior enlisted leaders testified before the House Appropriations Committee Subcommittee on Military Construction, Vet-erans Affairs and Related Agencies March 30.

MCPON Rick D. West, along with the other top enlisted leaders from the Marines, Army and Air Force, discussed quality of life, family readi-ness, recruiting and retention, reserve force, and veteran affairs issues.

"In my travels this past year I have enjoyed the visits I've had with Sailors who defend America every day. In these visits I have taken special note of the quality of life in which they live and serve," said West. "As you know, qual-ity of work and quality of life programs for our Sailors, their families and our Navy civilians is directly tied to military readiness."

Navy's Homeport Ashore program, bachelor and Navy family housing, and Continuum of Care were other important issues that were brought up to the congressional subcommittee.

West said that as the environment in which Sailors and their families' lives change, along with global requirements and world events, new and better ways to support our Navy families must be continuously explored.

West also discussed the integral part deploy-ments play in Navy life. The Navy has been deploying forces since its formation during times of both peace and conflict, but it is important not

All military members who reside in privately leased houses in Spain and receive an Overseas Housing Allowance now have the opportunity to complete the 2011 OHA and Recurring Main-tenance Survey.

The survey will be available through April 30 at the following internet address: http://www.defensetravel.dod.mil/ss/wsb.dll/s/eg4e.

“The Overseas Housing Allowance is a valuable entitlement for military members who are stationed in Spain,” said Lt. Ben Tisdale, NAVSTA public affairs officer. “The time and effort spent answering the survey questions will enable the Department of Defense to ensure we are getting the right amount of OHA. Therefore, we need everyone who qualifies for OHA to participate in this survey.”

Participants will be asked to provide the average monthly cost of utilities and routine maintenance. No outside contractors or DoD civilians will be involved in the survey, and private homeown-ers do not need to take this survey, as historically their expense data is different from renters upon which the program is based.

To complete the survey, respondents should have actual bills or records of their utility expenses and maintenance expenses for the last 12 months. They will be expected to compute a monthly average for each of these expenses. Respondents may take the survey at home with their spouses and should make every effort to reflect actual incurred expenses.

The data will be used to compute scientifically accurate OHA allowances for military personnel in Spain, so accuracy in com-pleting the survey is critical.

“Remember to report the currency used to pay them,” said Tisdale. “For example, if electricity was paid in Euros, do not convert to dollars.”

For more information regarding the survey, contact Maj. Manuel Marino, the point-of-contact for the Spain OHA survey at [email protected].

to underestimate or take for granted the incred-ible strain that a long deployment imposes on Sailors and their families.

"The strain on our Sailors and their families is greater than ever, but our Sailors recognize the significance of their mission."

West said that keeping Navy families in-formed about resources available to them to mitigate the strain of deployment and provide support is instrumental to their peace of mind while waiting for their Sailors to return from a year-long assignment in the Middle East or a six-month deployment safeguarding our seas.

Japanese Minister thanks u.s. serviCe MeMbers

By Lisa DanieL, american Forces Press service

USS RONALD REAGAN, At Sea (NNS) -- Japanese Defense Minister Toshimi Kitazawa boarded USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76), April 4, to thank U.S. service members for their help since a magnitude 9.0 earthquake and tsunami struck Japan March 11.

The work of U.S. service members and other Americans is a testament to the half century of tomodachi – friendship - between the United States and Japan, Kitazawa said as he shared a state-ment from Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan.

"To all U.S. military members, on behalf of the people of Japan, I sincerely express my deep appreciation for the tremendous support provided by the U.S. military, the U.S. government and the American people at a time of unprecedented crisis in Japan," Kitazawa said.

USS Ronald Reagan responded immediately after the disaster, and its Sailors, as well as other service members, continue the humanitarian mission in Japan "with pride and passion" and "are supporting Japan on an extraordinary scale," he said.

As of March 25, more than 1,000 Sailors and Marines were deployed in support of Operation Tomodachi and had flown more than 450 missions for recovery, transport and supplies distribution, according to the U.S. embassy officials in Tokyo.

Kitazawa said he received a call from President Barack Obama right after the earthquake, pledging American support.

"The entire Japanese people are deeply moved and encour-aged by scenes of U.S. military members working hard in sup-port of relief efforts," he said. "Those in Japan and the United States are true tomodachi. ... They share basic values such as democracy and respect for human rights."

Faced with such a disaster, Kitazawa said, "in no time like the present do I feel so strongly about our friendship with the United States. Your support is a testament of our enduring bond for more than half a century. Japan, with your continuous cooperation, is determined to launch a full-scale effort to overcome these chal-

lenges ahead of us." U.S. Ambassador to Japan, John V. Roos, was part of the

delegation that included senior Japanese military officials aboard USS Ronald Reagan.

"Looking out over this spectacular view, in front of all you great Americans, I am awed to be here, and I can't tell you how deeply moved I am by all you've accomplished in the last several weeks," he said.

Roos offered U.S. condolences to the Japanese, noting that he saw the disaster's effects firsthand in northeastern Japan.

"One cannot even begin to imagine the devastation until you witness it yourself, and even then it's hard to imagine," Roos said. "I met with people who lost almost everything in their lives, including their loved ones," he continued. "I could not help but be moved by their calm dignity and resilient spirit."

WASHINGTON (NNS) -- Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy (MCPON)(SS/SW) Rick D. West released the following Chief Petty Officer birthday message to the Fleet March 28.

"My fellow chief petty officers,On April 1st, our entire Mess will

pause to celebrate 118 years of the United States Navy Chief Petty Of-ficer, and we're not just celebrating another year of chiefs serving the Navy, we're celebrating everything it means to wear the fouled anchors we all cherish.

Those anchors are the symbol of a culture and a way of life, repre-senting character, loyalty, a strong commitment to leadership, our core values, and Navy ethos. Our anchors carry with them a respon-sibility to live up to the tradition of selfless service, while remembering our proud heritage that we've spent 118 years building as we look toward our future.

The much anticipated move of the NMCRS Thrift Shop took place in March when teams of active duty volunteers from MSRON 4, Air Ops, NMCB 74 and FASTEUR worked together under the supervision of NMCRS Volunteer Tom Brennan. Together, they emptied out the old Thrift Shop spaces in Building 575 and moved to the new location in Building 222 next door to NCTAMS.

Some of these volunteers worked 2 or even 3 full days emptying and cleaning the new location, and moving clothing racks, shelving and merchandise in driving rain. When their car wash event for Fund Drive 2011 was rained out, the MSRON 4 group came back and helped unpack the boxes of merchandise and set up displays. In addition Tom Brennan spent many days on his own building racks, hanging signs, and ensuring that everything was in place before we opened the doors to the public. NMCRS volunteers put in the finishing touches with sorting and arranging the sale items on display. NMCRS truly could not

have accomplished this move without the time and assistance of all those that lent a hand. After 2 weeks of hard work, the new Thrift Store opened its doors on 21 March.

For those who don’t know where NCTAMS is located, we are on Enriquez Street, the main street that passes Building 1, the Chapel, the Fitness Center and the Security Kennels. Keep going past the kennels, and watch for a blue awning with “Thrift Store” on it. Parking is available in the NCTAMS parking lot. The Thrift Store hours are the same: Monday, Wednesday and Friday and the 3rd Saturday of each month from 1100 – 1400, with the first half hour set aside as priority shopping for active duty members and their families.

Currently donations can be made during our open hours. The drop box will be moved to our new location soon. Thank you all for your patience during this busy month, and we hope to see you all enjoying our new location!!

You’ve perhaps heard the phrase that we were “made in God’s image.” This concept comes from the creation story in chapter 1 of the book of Genesis:

“so God cre-ated man in his own image, in

the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.”

But what is most striking to

me is exactly what the Bible describes as the image of God. You notice that it is not simply one person, or even numerous people – but specifically “male and female.” In short, when God wished to create “his image” on this world, he created a married couple. This is how significant marriage is – not simply a useful institution, but a direct reflection of the glory and love of our creator. This is why at least in part why marriage should be held in such high esteem and honored as the gift from God that it is.

Moreover, as God is the source of all good and perfect things, it is he that made marriage as good as it can be. Thus I continue to encourage you to seek whatever opportunities are there to grow in your marriage – and to con-tinue to discover just how joyous, ten-der, passionate, and full of delight God created this relationship to be.

And so, I will mention one exciting upcoming opportunity. The chapel will be hosting a CREDO marriage retreat program on May 13 - 15. This is, of course, open to everyone, regardless of your religious background or whether or not you have a religious background. This is a wonderful opportunity for a weekend away with some time set aside for strengthening and enriching your marriage. Your room and meals will be covered at the wonderful Barceló resort hotel in Costa Ballena. Slots are available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Please call the chapel to register.

If you would like to speak with a chaplain for any reason please call the Religious Ministries Department at 727-2161.

Evening Adult Bible Study This adult Bible Study begins with a meal at 6:30 p.m. Thursday evenings with group study from 7 - 8 p.m.

PWOC Bible StudyThe Protestant Women of the Chapel meet Thursdays, 9:30 - 11:30 a.m. for Bible study, fellowship and food. All are welcome and childcare is free.

United States Navy chief petty officers around the world celebrated their 118th birthday Friday, and the chiefs here in Rota started the party early.

Rota chiefs held several events throughout the day, starting with a CPO Pride Run around the base at 7:30 a.m., cadence and all. Maybe they were weren't the fastest, (lets not mention any ages) but at least they were together.

After the run, the CMC reenlisted LS2 Celia Elwin, who, after taking the oath, boldly told the two-dozen chiefs in attendance, that she was thrilled to reenlist on the CPO birthday and that she would be joining the chief ranks in a couple years.

From the reenlistment to the group photo and on to Chief Martin Colon's retirement. Chief Colon retired after 23 years. His wife, children and mother-in-law and father-in-law where in attendance.

After Chief Colon's reception, the chiefs caught their breath before the party began at the CMC's house. Admiral in Chief Rota Naval Base Rear Adm. Juan Ruiz Casas, COMNAVACTS Capt. Bill Mosk, and several of the Spanish navy chiefs joined the Rota chiefs for the fiesta and cake cutting.

I could not make it to work today, I had an eye problem. I just did not see myself working!At one point or another in our lives we have heard someone say that laughter is the best medicine. How on earth is that possible? Laughter stimulates healthy physical changes in the human body. Studies have shown that laughter strengthens your immune system, boosts energy levels, relieves pain, and protects us from the damaging effects of stress. The best part about laughter is that it is free. There are several benefits to your physical health associated with laughter. Laughter reduces the level of stress hormones like cortisol, epi-nephrine, and dopamine. It also increases the level of health-enhancing hormones like endorphins, and neurotransmitters. Laughter has been proven to increase the number of antibody-producing cells. Your mental health can benefit from laughter by easing anxiety or fear, and enhancing resilience. Furthermore, there are even social benefits to laughter. It helps diffuse conflicts, enhances teamwork and even strengthens our relationships. What does this mean to you? It means a stronger immune system and lower stress levels! Physically what happens when we laugh? A physiological change oc-curs; the muscles throughout our face and body stretch, our pulse and blood pressure go up, and we breathe faster, sending more oxygen throughout our body. “The effects of laughter and exercise are very similar, combining laughter and movement, like waving your arms, is a great way to boost your heart rate,” says Steve Wilson, M.A., CSP, a psychologist and laugh therapist. However, do not trade the treadmill for laughter just yet. While re-sults are fascinating, it turned out that a study from Vanderbilt Univer-sity measured the amount of calories exhausted in laughing over a ten to fifteen minute period burned approximately 50 calories. Keep in mind at that rate, losing one pound from laughing would take nearly twelve hours of concentrated laughter. Laughter is your birth right and a natural part of life. It all begins with a smile. Infants begin smiling during the first weeks of life and laughing within months of being born. Smiling is the beginning of laugher, and like laughter it is contagious. A good sense of humor, a positive attitude, and the support of your family and friends all play a part. Simply stepping aside and taking the time to pass along a smile or share a funny moment with a friend can have a bigger impact on your mindset and your stress levels, which has been proven to benefit your body, mind and spirit.

Education is key in preventing abuseBy Carmen Fontaine, FFSC

Sometimes parents can’t provide the right care, because they are in trouble themselves, and a significant amount of abuse results from a lack of communication and parenting skills.

The Fleet and Family Service Center has groups, programs and staff in position and available to promote the development of personal abilities and strengths:

New Parent Support Program Home Visitor: Parenting education information includes; basic baby care - growth and development, Infant Massage classes by a certified infant massage instructor (International Association of Infant Massage), child abuse prevention, role modeling, discipline for children and child safety. New Parent Support Specialist (NPSHV Specialist) provides visits to expectant and new parents at home and in the hospital and help them face the new demands that come with a new baby. NPSHV Specialist provides information about pregnancy, infant development, parenting skills using the renown Nurturing Parenting Program developed by Stephen Bavolek, Ph.D. and psychosocial support for the family in time of crisis and referrals to military and community resources.

Personal financial management: Research has shown a strong correlation between financial problems and spouse abuse. Families can get help with their finances at workshops, classes or individual counseling sessions.

Prevention and relationship enhancement programs: These workshops teach married and engaged couples how to improve their communication skills and learn practical ways to deal with conflict between husband, wife and children. Life Skill Educators provide many workshops on stress management to help families deal with stress and how to channel it properly, and they conduct parenting classes. Support groups are operated out of Fleet and Family Service Center (FFSC) and provide an opportunity for military spouses and single parents to share like experiences and support during deployments and other life transitions.

Ombudsmen: They serve as the critical communication link between the family, service members and base and shipboard commanders. They keep families informed of ship and squadron movements and returns, and relay emergency messages for families.

Information and Referral: Staff members at FFSC can help families find the answer to any question they may have. They are excellent source of referrals for help in the local civilian community as well.

The Intercultural Relations and Community Orientation class helps with the transition to Spanish culture providing an orientation course, Spanish language classes, Spanish driving test, field trips and teen ICRCOC.

Family Advocacy Program (FAP): This program was established to protect families against abuse. The program works closely with counselors, medical treatment facilities and civilian authorities. Cases are monitored to ensure victims are safe and offenders are treated.

Sexual Assault Victim Prevention and Response Program (SAPR): This comprehensive program is designated to meet the needs of victims. The program promotes awareness and prevention education, victim advocacy, data collection, crisis intervention and resources for victims regardless service affiliation.

Chaplains: Chaplains are qualified to help families find solutions to personal, family, marital and spiritual dilemmas and offer their assistance.

Protect your family by finding help. All these services are free to anyone wishing to use them. We all need help sometimes to be good parents. Getting help means learning new ways to teach your kids to behave. Remember kids always follow your example. So call your Fleet and Family Support Center 727-3232 and ask for ideas, we are here to support and inform our families. ENRICH, EMPOWER & EDUCATE!

The After School Scholars Program is in its fourth year of operation at David Glasgow Farragut Rota Elementary School. The program offers students, grades one to three, an opportunity to practice their reading and enhance their read-aloud skills. Com-pletely reliant on volunteers, this program also offers service members and local civilians an opportunity to help out the young students of Rota.

Every Thursday since October 28, 2010, volun-teers have arrived at the elementary school library at 3:20 p.m. to greet their reading partners at the door. From then on, for about an hour, the child and their partner read and share thoughts on books, school and life.

One volunteer, David Murillo, describes his vol-unteerism as “a nice change of pace from helping inner-city students.”

Diane Miller, who has been volunteering with the After School Scholars program for four years, gives an insight. “I love the lightbulb ‘Aha!’ moment. It’s nice to see a kid who comes in one day and doesn’t know a word, but can recognize it the next week. The program really caters to each individual student with the help of volunteers.”

The Fleet and Family Support Center has aided Alice Rambo, D.G.F. kindergarten teacher, and Diane Miller, local volunteer and organizer, during this program for all four years of its existence. Perry Guidry and Lisa Casillas are the liaisons from FFSC

this year, and both have found the pro-gram to be useful to both the students and the volunteers they monitor.

“I just love working with kids," said Perry Guidry sharing why he loves the program. "It’s very rewarding when I am able to influence them in any proper way or help them out.”

The children involved have shown great growth in their reading skills after having been elected to par-ticipate in the After School Scholars program. They are able to practice reading on their proper reading level, finish up any homework they might need help with, and engage with volunteers that really care about their advancement as readers.

Teresa, mother of Bryce McNeese describes her son’s leaps in learning, “Bryce’s love of reading has grown exponentially. We were concerned at first with not just his level of reading, but with his frustration in reading. Now he completely enjoys it, and he loves his volunteer, Anne.”

The end of this year’s After School Scholars pro-gram was marked by an awards ceremony for every volunteer that actively participated and every student involved. NAVSTA Rota Commanding Officer Capt. Bill Mosk was kind enough to grace the ceremony with one of his moving speeches and thanked each volunteer and student personally and talked about the benefits of volunteering.

Caption

The children and volunteers enjoyed pizza and cake provided by the FFSC and organizational volun-teers.

When the ceremony was over, the children said goodbye to their volunteer partner. While this may be a final goodbye for PCS'ing students or service members, the students will always save a special place in their memory for their volunteer who helped and supported them with their lifetime skill of reading. The volunteers will always remember the students as determined and dedicated young scholars.

(Above) The gifted education students of Mrs. Maria Rodriguez have been learning about the trade routes between Europe and North Africa. On a visit to the historic Roman Ruins of Baelo-Claudia, where excavations have unearthed the most comprehensive remains of a Roman city on the Iberian Peninsula, it brought the students face to face with life at the time of Emperor Claudius (41-45 AD).

During their visit to Baelo-Claudia, the students showed responsibility by being attentive to the tour-guide, asking many questions of interest, being helpful to each other and representing Rota Elementary School in a positive way. The students will now use the photographs they took on the trip to organize power point show to summarize the information learned.

(Above and Right) Teachers at DGF Elementary work d i l igent ly dur ing the i r last Cont inued School Improvement in-service day. During this time, the teachers were able to addtheir classroom data on math and writing assessments to the school's data wall, enterand observe data on the computer, compare and contrast data from their grade and the other grades and coming up with somesteps that would assist their students to improve in their math and writing skills growth.

Located in the patio of the old Grant Bodega, El Patio de las 7 Esquinas is one of the emblematic spots of Puerto de Santa María, it is all charm with great food to boot. The patio and bar are decorated in the traditional style of the taverns that were popular when Andalusian winery culture was at its height. It

is full of antiques and memorabilia typical of the wineries of this area. The patio has several lemon trees which add charm and

a wonderful aroma. There is a large variety of tapas and “raciones” both, hot and cold, so you are sure to find what you like. Some of their specialties are: Broken eggs with sausages, grilled Argentinean steak, stuffed squid, and bull tails. They always have things off the menu as well, depending on the daily market. The prices are very reasonable so it is very good value for your money. My daughter frequents Las 7 esquinas and says her favorites are the stuffed squid and the croquettes. In addition to the patio, there is a large room in the bodega itself for groups of up to 150 people. It’s a great place for a party in a relaxed atmosphere.

Bodega visits are possible any day after 14:00 when the workers have left for the day. The Patio de las 7 Esquinas also sells wines, olive oil, cheeses, hams and sausages. It is located about half way between the bullring and the river so parking at ei-ther location is convenient. It’s a great place to take
