PuBlic affairsa deadly strain of avian flu spreads

rapidly from china, and threatens the national capital region. With a 60-percent fatality rate the numbers of dead are rising and the threat re-quires immediate reaction. This is the scenario that Joint Base anacos-tia-Bolling (JBaB) prepared to re-spond to in its annual closed Point of Dispensing/ table-top exercise (cPoD/ttX) on oct. 5.

The base’s medical leaders gath-ered with emergency management, the Defense intelligence agency, and representatives from naval Dis-trict Washington and Walter reed national Military Medical center.

The exercise is an essential part of the planning phase of response to pandemic threats, because it allows the base to smooth out its inter-agen-cy contributions before an emergen-cy is actually present. 1st lt. saman-tha Brown, medical readiness officer for the 579th Medical group (579 MDg), said that the training is most-ly about identifying potential pitfalls before they happen, and saving lives by avoiding costly mistakes during emergency responses.

“The training is two parts. first we assess our capabilities to respond to a pandemic event, and work out any problems that might occur by joining two agencies together in that effort,” she said. “secondly, we put the planning to the test with a real world exercise by administering the

seasonal flu vaccine to all tricare beneficiaries from around the base. That allows us to make sure we are putting the lessons we’ve learned from the exercise into practice.”

The 579 MDg runs JBaB’s clinic, and would be the main response unit in case of an emergency event. air force col. Michelin Joplin, 579 MDg commander, said this training provides an opportunity for the joint base to mix its service branches and work out the kinks before a real world response.

“i am excited about the oppor-tunity to work together with our navy partners,” she said. “We iden-tified some gaps, but we also know where we can mitigate those as well. so i think we’re looking for-ward to working together, and i think we will have good support for both sides.”

The real-world exercise portion of the event, shotex, was held oct. 7 at the Base chapel center, where over 600 base personnel received their seasonal flu vaccine. The exer-cise tests the abilities of the region’s medical personnel to administer vaccinations on a large scale basis, as well as offered the unique ability to vaccinate a large portion of the base at one time.

tim trammell, JBaB’s installa-tion training manager, said the focus for the cPoD/shotex was to assess the 579 MDg’s capability to establish and operate a cPoD in a joint environment with the Washington navy yard (WnyD)

Branch Medical clinic in admin-istering seasonal flu vaccinations, and the results were excellent again this year.

“This is the 4th year we have been conducting this joint event with our WnyD clinic,” he said. “last year we vaccinated over 650 personnel and we were happy to see a similar turn-out this year. The event was definitely a success.”

The exercise tests the base’s capabilities to respond to pandemic events and shows off their ability to administer vaccines on a large scale.

Dress up in wacky costumes and come support the Joint Base anacostia-Bolling (JBaB) police during the free Mcgruff 5K run/walk oct. 17 at 10 a.m. at the aerobic center.

the run is being organized in conjunction with the crime Pre-vention awareness Month.

“if you are aware of a lot of crime prevention procedures and aspects you can do to pre-vent things from happening, crime stats would be a lot low-er,” said base police sgt. Bianca Burgos, crime prevention officer. “sometimes it’s the lack of aware-ness that causes things to hap-pen and JBaB needs to be as safe as possible.”

Prizes will be given out to the

best dressed adult 18 and over and child under 18. the prizes will be supplied by Hunt housing.

the base police are looking forward to engaging with the community during the run and showing people officers have fun too, said Burgos.

“We want to show we can do fun stuff too,” she said. “it’s not always about getting in trouble or anything serious. the cops are here to form a positive relation-ship with the community.

“We want to get as many kids and families to come as possi-ble…grab your wacky costume and come join us. it’s going to be a fun time saturday morning.”

if you want more information on the upcoming 5K or informa-tion on crime prevention contact Burgos at 202-404-6759 or email [email protected].

september was another busy month with lots of fun and meaningful events. We welcomed a new chief of naval Oper-ations, adm. John Richardson; celebrated naval support Facil-ity indian Head’s 125th anniversary; pinned the navy’s newest chief Petty Officers; honored our Ombudsman and Key spous-es; and supported the Pope’s visit.

We also closed our Fiscal year 2015 in grand style. a special thanks to all who played a role in balancing our books and exe-cuting our funding on target and on time. Great job!

October is national energy action month. The department of the navy’s theme this year is “Power-Presence” and we are called upon as americans to work together, “to achieve greater energy security, a more robust economy, and a healthier envi-ronment for our children.”

as our nation and navy become more and more reliant on an uninterrupted supply of energy/electricity to execute even the most basic warfighting and administrative tasks, energy reliability and energy resilience have moved to the forefront of navy acquisition and planning efforts. continued overreli-ance on oil to meet our energy needs presents an unmitigated vulnerability to our warfighting superiority, as well as to our economy and environment. Therefore, at the corporate level, the navy has been focusing on and fielding alternative and re-newable energy, both ashore and afloat, for several years. nu-clear power, biofuels for use in aircraft and ships, electrification of non-tactical vehicle fleets, and increased use of renewable forms of energy (e.g., photovoltaics, hydro and wind) are just some examples. These efforts work to ensure we will have the energy we need, when and where we need it; that is, reliable energy. They also work to ensure that our sources of energy can

withstand direct attack, natural disasters, and worldwide sup-ply chain interruptions; that is, energy resiliency.

so what does that mean for us? although many are involved in some of the efforts i mention above, there are things we can do at the individual level to assist with energy reliance and resilien-

cy that, when combined with the efforts of all, have a significant impact on our warfighting efficiency and effectiveness. ashore, every bit of energy/electricity we save frees up valuable resources that can be used elsewhere. even actions that may appear insignif-icant, like turning off lights, eliminating small/individual refrigera-tors, and shutting down your computer before leaving for the day, can have a tremendous impact when multiplied across the navy.

Here are some examples of things you can do during energy ac-tion month (and beyond) to support the navy’s energy Program:

1) Use the energy star power management settings on your com-puter and monitor so they go into power save mode when not in use.

2) Use a power strip as a central “turn off” point for attached equipment.3) Unplug electronics, such as cell phones and laptops, once

they’re charged. adapters plugged into outlets use energy even after the equipment is fully charged.

4) Replace the light bulb in your desk lamp with an energy star qualified bulb. it’ll last up to 10 times longer and use ap-proximately 75 percent less energy.

5) Turn off the lights when you leave a space, especially at the end of the day.

6) Keep air vents clear of paper, files, and office supplies. it takes as much as 25 percent more energy to pump air into a workspace if the vents are blocked.

7) Use only e85/ethanol in flex fuel vehicles.8) Be aware of energy/electricity usage in your spaces and

in the spaces and buildings around you. if you notice wasteful practices or conservation opportunities, inform your building manager or naval Facilities engineering command personnel.

during this energy action month, you will see events and ac-tivities at your installation designed to boost energy awareness. Please participate and learn about energy use and conserva-tion. i appreciate your support of the navy’s energy Program.

People are always looking for ways to save money and there are simple energy saving solutions around the house that can help you rack up the savings.

For personnel on base, contact the housing office to find out what the average consumption is on base. if you are using less than the average you qualify to receive savings each month.

Tim min, installation energy manager, offered these easy tips to help you save energy and your wallet.

First, the easiest thing people can do to save energy, and in turn save money, is to get in the habit of turning off lights when they leave the room and unplugging things when not in use.

“a lot of people leave lights on all the time and just forget to turn it off when they leave, “ he said. “i’ll bet you can save a good 5 per-cent of your bill just by turning things off.”

second, when doing your laundry he suggested people try and wash their clothes during non peak hours. The peak hours for en-ergy consumption are usually between 4 and 7 p.m., when people

start to get home from work. He also suggests washing clothes in cold water whenever possible and using the correct amount of detergent. Using too much detergent causes your machine to work harder and use more energy.

and don’t forget to remove the lint after each use of the dryer.Third, when you run your dishwasher, only wash full loads. The

dishwasher will use around 17 gallons of hot water each time, whether you wash one dish or a full load.

don’t leave the water running when brushing your teeth. you could save as much as nine gallons of water each time.

Fourth, set the thermostat for your central air conditioning sys-tem at the highest comfortable setting. if you normally set it at 72 degrees, raising it to 78 degrees should save between 12 and 47 percent in cooling costs, depending on the climate where you live.

Take advantage of time-of-day or time-of-use rates if your util-ity offers these by shifting usage of appliances to off-peak hours when rates are lower. also, take advantage of nice weather by opening windows to cool the house and use natural light from windows whenever possible.

Fifth, have a professional energy audit performed on your home to determine whether your home wastes energy, and to pinpoint where the energy is being lost. many local utility companies will perform the audit for free.

if you have an older home be sure to check your HVac to see if it needs to be replaced.

Last summer, min said he was paying over $400 each month for utilities. after having his HVac replaced he cut his bill in half.

make sure to check your energy statement each month to track your progress and to become more aware of your energy consumption.

“People know, but it’s just one of those things where you keep forgetting,” min said. “We just need to change the culture.”

These are just some of the simple tips to get you started racking up the money by saving energy around the house.

For those interested in more energy tips visit the energy Fair Oct. 14 at the base exchange from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m.

if you have any questions or are looking for energy assistance call Tim min at 202-767-8615 or email [email protected]

PuBlic AFFAirS

To better serve shoppers at Joint Base Ana-costia-Bolling (JBAB) exchange facilities, the exchange credit Program’s miliTAry STAr® card will soon offer an updated rewards pro-gram along with a new look and enhanced card security features.

When the updated rewards program launch-es all miliTAry STAr® cardholders will earn 2 points for every $1 spent in Army, Air Force, marine corps and navy exchange stores, and wherever else the miliTAry STAr® card is accepted. For every 2,000 points earned, shop-pers will automatically receive a $20 exchange rewards card.

The updated miliTAry STAr® card, which began arriving in cardholders’ mailboxes in mid-September, will have enhanced features to protect military members and their families from becoming victims of fraud. A security code on the back will provide extra protection when shopping online. The card will also include ex-piration and “member since” dates on the front.

The new miliTAry STAr® card reflects a patriotic look that includes an image of the Statue of liberty and branch of service seal, something customers voiced as important in focus groups.

Though its look is changing, the miliTAry STAr® card’s benefits will continue, including a competitive interest rate of 10.24 percent, no

annual late or over-limit fees, 10 percent off first-day purchases, 10 percent off exchange food court purchases, 5-cents-per-gallon sav-ings at exchange gas stations and free stan-dard shipping at shopyexchange.com.

in addition to advantages for customers, the entire military community benefits when shoppers use a miliTAry STAr® card.

“Because miliTAry STAr® card transac-tions are processed in-house, costly merchant fees are avoided,” said general manager, Tony Pares. “instead of paying bank fees for credit card processing, Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling exchange stores can better support military morale, welfare and recreation programs. That’s why using a military Star card not only benefits the cardholder, but every member of the military community.”

The Army & Air Force exchange Service goes where Soldiers, Airmen and their families go to improve the quality of their lives through goods and services provided. exchange earnings pro-vide dividends to support military morale, wel-fare and recreation programs. The exchange is part of the Department of Defense and is direct-ed by a board of directors, responsible to the Secretaries of the Army and Air Force through the chiefs of Staff. To find out more about the exchange history and mission or to view recent press releases please visit our Web site at http://www.aafes.com/about-exchange/public-af-fairs/press-releases.htm or follow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/exchangePAo.

Join us this fall for the return of The U.S. Air Force Band’s Chamber Players Series! Throughout the season, members from mu-sical groups in the Air Force Band will break into smaller ensembles to perform in chamber music settings.

So what exactly makes this series different from other performances? At a Chamber Play-ers Series concert, you’re likely to encounter a more intimate setting with an eclectic mix of genres and styles. you’ll hear virtuosic classical pieces, arrangements of works old and new, jazz combos, woodwind ensembles, and on and on! This series is a delight for us to present, giving performers a chance to step outside our daily musical roles within the band in a freer and soloistic manner. To hear an example of this, join us on Nov. 5 for the Percussion En-semble concert. Master Sgt. Randy gorman, a percussionist in the concert band, reports this “is a great opportunity to play chamber music as a section, which certainly enhances our ability to play together as a section in the concert band. Also, as a percussionist, it is al-ways great to play as a soloist instead of only in a supporting role.”

in addition to being artistically fulfilling, play-ing in chamber ensembles helps us flex our musical muscles. Tech. Sgt. Sandy Sisk, a bas-soonist with the concert band, describes the re-warding nature of these challenges; “Chamber music is certainly more challenging in many ways: working with a group of people to come to a consensus about a piece, working on phras-ing, intonation and style. That collaboration is exactly why chamber music is so rewarding. We can make each piece ‘our own.’”

The bulk of these performances will take place at the lyceum: Alexandria’s History Mu-seum at 7:30 p.m., with the exception of a spe-cial Veteran’s Day Tribute at the Jewish Com-munity Center of greater Washington (JCC) on Nov. 12 at 8:15 p.m. in the past, the Cham-ber Players Series concerts were equally par-celed out between the lyceum and the JCC. Only having one performance venue gives us greater continuity and an opportunity to focus our message in a specific area. With this shift in venue, we hope to serve our audience in a more streamlined manner, having one main stage in which to deliver our performances.

We can’t wait to see you throughout this fall, and hope you enjoy the Chamber Play-ers Series!
