It is that time of year again for in-fluenza vaccines. Influenza, or “flu,” is a contagious res-

piratory illness. According to the Cen-ters for Disease Control andPrevention, flu was associated withabout 3,000 to 49,000 deaths per yearbetween 1976 and 2006.Most experts think that flu viruses

are spread mainly by droplets madewhen people with the flu cough, sneezeor talk. It can be spread to others up toabout six feet away. Less often, a per-son might also get the flu by touching asurface or object that has the flu viruson it and then touching their ownmouth or nose. Some people with theflu virus can be asymptomatic, but thepotential to spread the virus still re-mains. The following groups are at higher

risk for complications from an in-fluenza infection, and are strongly en-

couraged to get a flu vaccine as soon aspossible: Pregnant women, Individualsliving with or caring for infants lessthan two years old, Children youngerthan five, especially under the age oftwo, People 65 years and older, or any-one with one of the following medicalconditions; chronic lung disease such asasthma or emphysema, heart disease,chronic kidney or liver disease, a cogni-tive or neuromuscular disorder, a meta-bolic disease (including diabetes), orimmunosuppression (caused by med-ication or by another medical condi-tion).U.S. Naval Hospital Naples has two

forms of the influenza vaccine for thegeneral population, to include a vaccinesprayed into the nose (flu mist) and aninactivated vaccine given by intramus-cular injection (the shot). The vaccinewill help protect against the influenzaviruses indicated by research to bemost common during the season.

Portable Electric Heaters on NSA Naples Installations

ENERGY CONSERVATIONFrom the NSA Naples Energy Management Team

As the temperature drops duringthe season tenants should beaware of the regulation regard-ing the use of space heaters onNSA Naples installations. In ac-cordance with Naval Support Activ-ity Naples Instruction 4101.1C, theuse of portable electric heaters isprohibited without the consent of theEnergy Program Manager or theFire Department.What if my work space is ex-

tremely cold? Contact your buildingmanager and request a trouble call be sub-mitted to PWD to verify the temperature of your work-space and check the heating system for proper function.Keep in mind when using portable electric heaters, theexcess heat provides a false reading to the room’s ther-mostat. If the thermostat reads that the temperature inthe room is high enough it will not trigger the centralheating system to turn on. The use of electric heatersmay seem like a solution but could potentially affect theentire heating system, meaning you may be warm inyour cubicle but, you may be causing your co-workers tosuffer.The use of portable heating systems is also a safety

hazard. In small spaces the heaters can cause a fire apotentially can over load electrical circuits. If you notice that portable electrical heaters are being

used in your workplace please advise your co-workers ofthe instruction or contact the Utilities and Energy Man-agement Office to report unauthorized use.

The vaccine contains versions ofthe influenza viruses that cannotreplicate so you cannot contractthe flu from receiving the vac-cine. Side effects may includerunny nose, headache, sorethroat, and cough. Education and prevention of the

flu virus is important becauseeven a mild case may adverselyimpact Navy force readiness andmission execution. The flu vac-cine is mandatory for all militarypersonnel (active duty and re-serves), as well as civilian healthcare workers providing direct pa-tient care, mission-essential DoDcivilians, and CDC staff (unlessmedically or administratively ex-empt). Be sure to maintain a copyof all records because the docu-mentation will act as your “re-ceipt” for having received eitherthe vaccine or the exemption. Ifwe do not have a record of yourvaccination and your name ap-pears on a delinquency list, youwill need to either show your re-ceipt or receive the vaccine again. Vaccination is the first line of

prevention towards fostering ahappy and healthy family. Al-

though not required for the pub-lic, it is highly recommended toreduce the risk of contracting theInfluenza virus. Remember, flu vaccination does

not protect you from the commoncold. Use these best practices toprotect our community and keepeveryone healthy!1. Avoid close contact.Avoid close contact with people

who are sick. When you are sick,keep your distance from others toprevent them from getting sicktoo.2. Stay home when you aresick.If possible, stay home from

work, school, and errands whenyou are sick. You will help pre-vent others from catching yourillness.3. Cover your mouth andnose. Cover your mouth and nose with

a tissue or lean into your elbowwhen coughing or sneezing. Itmay prevent those around youfrom getting sick.4. Clean your hands.Washing your hands often will

help protect you from germs. Ifsoap and water are not available,use an alcohol-based hand rub.

5. Avoid touching your eyes,nose or mouth. Germs are often spread when a

person touches something that iscontaminated with germs andthen touches his or her eyes,nose, or mouth.6. Practice other good healthhabits. Clean and disinfect frequently

touched surfaces at home, workor school, especially when some-one is ill. Get plenty of sleep, bephysically active, manage yourstress, drink plenty of fluids, andeat nutritious food.Talk to your healthcare provider

The landscape of Germanyhas inspired many authorsand painters. Its medievalruins, sentinels of an ear-lier age that have longlost their original pur-pose and shape but stub-bornly still stand, seemto lurk from hills andforests, intriguing pass-ing travelers to stop andexplore. Among the earli-est to appreciate themwere the 19th centuryromantics who foundbeauty in witheredhulks and in their darkhistories. If theyweren’t dark enough, theywould write them that way orat least borrow a good name.Author Mary Shelley may

have appropriated a nameshe heard on a Rhine Rivercruise in 1816, that of anearby castle namedFrankenstein. Whether it’strue or not it has given thelittle hilltop castle a bit of no-toriety to stand out from allthe others.

Notoriety is important be-cause in medieval Germany,if you had a hill you had acastle. The Odenwald hillsare still dotted with the re-

mains of fortresses suchas Burg Frankensteinfrom which the manylords of that stratified

land ruled. Inthat regard,it’s fairly typ-ical except for

its famous namewhich around Hal-loween attracts visi-

tors like pitchforkand torch wieldingvillagers to a mis-

understood perver-sion of science.Something to realize when

visiting is that the real castleand its forested hill haveenough stories and myths thatit doesn’t need another fic-tional one tacked on. Local leg-ends include a dragon tale,mythical creatures, witchesgathering on the hill and al-chemist Konrad Dippel, whoverifiably did live in the castle.If there is a real mystery of

Burg Frankenstein, it’s thecastle’s age. Europe is full ofcastles, churches and placesthat have been consistentlyused or inhabited for theirentire existence, but theseexistences stretch back so farno one remembers preciselywhen the first stones wherelaid. The oldest known refer-ence to Burg Frankenstein isfrom 948 A.D.On my trip it was dreary,

heavy on fog and light onrain, and looking to getworse. Normally I hated thiskind of weather when I trav-eled. But there isn’t any bet-ter weather to ask for whenexploring the ruins of castleand especially one namedFrankenstein.The visit didn’t inspire me

as a writer, but as a photog-rapher it was perfect. Omi-nous weather, fog concealingand shadowing figures andshapes, and for the most partvery few other people to ruinthe mood or wander into myshots made it ideal for shoot-ing eerie photography. Ahaunted atmosphere simplycan’t be replicated at theheight of tourist seasonunder a cloudless blue sky.It’s called a ruin but enough

castle remains that it’s easyto see the appeal romanticshad in such places. The cas-tle walls and towers stillstand and even though mostof the buildings are gone orreduced to stony frames it’seasy to imagine the place inits prime when hundreds la-bored and lived in andaround its cramped quarters.Burg Frankenstein is similarto other hilltop castles inHesse in that it’s rather com-pact to fit on its stony perch.Walking atop the walls andclimbing to the highest floorof the keep, where theFrankenstein family oncelived, offered an excellentview of the lands they oncedominated both literally andphysically.Another good area for pho-

tography was walking thenarrow path that circles thecastle walls and also includesa standalone rampart.There’s something about thecombination of ruins andgreenery that appeals to me.I could say there’s a state-ment to be made about the

Visiting the Legendary Castle Frankenstein

works of man falling to na-ture or I could just say itlooks appealing.The castle is in a nature

park, so before heading outgrab a map of the footpathsand points of interest thentry to find as many as youcan. Some will appeal tothose with an interest in theparanormal such as the mag-net stones which supposedlyhas appealed to witches overthe centuries, the sonnstein,humming stone, which issupposed to be good for yourhealth and even better foryour health is a Jungbrun-nen, the fountain of youthwhich I’m pretty certain hasrun dry. What is definitelygood health-wise is the exer-cise received from all thewalking and fresh mountainair. Burg Frankenstein was a

fun and productive day outfor me. It was also cheap, theentry fee was two euros, and

The moody atmosphere of Frankenstein’s Castle makes one feel as though they were in themiddle of a Halloween monster movie, rather than in a real medieval castle. Photo by MC1 David R. Krigbaum

easy to get to. It is 20 milesfrom Frankfurt am Main andoverlooking the town of Mul-htal. I rode a train fromFrankfurt to Mulhtal’sFrankenstein stop then rodea taxi to the castle. Becausethe road is very windy andhas no shoulder to walk on, Iwould recommend againstattempting walking up thehill from the station. Most of the year visiting is

as simple as showing up, butif you want to visit duringHalloween you need to pur-chase an entry ticket wellahead of time due to its Hal-loween monster festival.Nearly everyone has read

the book, seen the movie orat the very least, heard of“Frankenstein’s Monster.” Ifyou take the time and visitthe castle, you can be one ofthe few who has actuallybeen there and seen for your-self where the legend got itsstart.

The cyber threat reachesbeyond traditional informa-tion technology (IT) net-works and computers tosystems that affect nearlyevery aspect of the Navy’smission. Machinery control,weapons and navigationsystems may be vulnerable,as well as the networks andcomputers commonly usedby Navy personnel.To protect against these

threats the Navy has madesignificant changes, includ-ing how it is organized andhow much it invests in cy-bersecurity.In 2014, the Navy estab-

lished Task Force CyberAwakening (TFCA) to im-prove cybersecurity after itsnetwork was compromisedthe previous year. The mis-sion of the task force was totake a comprehensive lookat the Navy’s cybersecurityand make changes to im-prove its defenses.TFCA established priori-

ties for protecting the Navybased on recommendationsfrom industry, the cyberse-curity community andstakeholders. Using thesepriorities, the task forceevaluated hundreds of fund-ing requests for addressingvulnerabilities, which re-sulted in $300 million beingset aside in fiscal year 2016for solutions that strength-ened the Navy’s defensesand improved awareness ofits cybersecurity posture.TFCA used the same ap-proach to evaluate over 300competing funding requestsfor the next five years of theNavy’s budget.One of these funding prior-

ities was for control pointswhich allow the Navy to iso-late portions of the networkafter a breach is detected.

What the Navy is Doing Now to Remain CybersecureFrom the Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for Information Dominance Navy Cybersecurity Division (N2/N6F4)

An infographic depicting cyber threats. U.S. government and Navy computer networks and systems now face a constant barrage of attacks and intrusion attempts. U.S. Navyphoto illustration

Much like the watertightcompartments on a ship,these control points willallow the Navy to limit theimpact of a compromise andkeep adversaries from mov-ing to other targets in thenetwork. These controlpoints will also allow theNavy to selectively limitconnectivity for parts of thenetwork if increased cyberactivity from adversaries isexpected, similar to howships set different materialconditions of readiness.The task force also formed a

Navy-wide group to imple-ment the CYBERSAFE Pro-gram. CYBERSAFE ismodeled after SUBSAFEwhich is the rigorous subma-rine safety program begunafter the loss of the USSThresher (SSN 593) in 1963.Like the submarine program,CYBERSAFE will harden a

critical subset of warfightingcomponents, which could becertain computer systems orparts of the network. CY-BERSAFE will apply morestringent requirements tothese components before andafter fielding to ensure theycan better withstand at-tempted compromises. CY-BERSAFE will also requirechanges in crew proficiencyand culture to implementthese requirements.

Technical solutions alone can-not completely protect theNavy. The cybersecurity, pro-fessional and general work-force are also key contributorsto the Navy’s defense.● Cyber workforce - To en-

sure the cyber workforcehas people with the rightskills, the Secretary of theNavy is revising the CyberWorkforce Management

Manual. After this manualis approved, the Navy willidentify updated training,education and certificationrequirements for the cyber-security workforce. ● Professional workforce -

To reduce vulnerabilities inthe computers that controlequipment, machines orweapons systems, the Navyidentified positions withinthe systems commands thatwill need cybersecuritytraining. ● General workforce - The

Navy is bolstering its cyber-security training to usersand leaders because defend-ing the Navy is not only theresponsibility of the cyberse-curity workforce, it is an allhands effort. Some exam-ples of current trainingbeing provided to the gen-eral workforce include cy-bersecurity training forSurface Warfare Officerleaders, and officers at Sub-marine School.In September 2015, the

CNO established the NavyCybersecurity Division onthe Navy headquarters staffto continue the transforma-tion started by TFCA. Thenew division will overseethe Navy’s approach to cy-bersecurity, developingstrategy, ensuring compli-ance with cybersecurity pol-icy and advocating forcybersecurity requirements.The division will also evalu-ate and prioritize major in-vestments and manage theCYBERSAFE program.

Other organizations critical to the cybersecurity fight: Navy Chief Information

Officer - Establishes policyand guidance relating to IT.● Developed the Navy’s ap-

proach for evaluating andimproving the security of ITsystems; ● Revised the Navy’s policy

for protecting informationand information systems.

Fleet Cyber Command/U.S.10th Fleet - Operates, main-tains and defends Navy net-works and conducts cyberoperations.● Began installing and op-

erating the new technicalsolutions that have beenpurchased;● Continued defending the

Navy’s networks, systemsand data.

Information DominanceForces Command - Organ-izes, mans, trains andequips the cybersecurityworkforce.● Obtained approval to add

another Division Officer cy-bersecurity position on CG,DDG, and LSD class ships;● Conducted training and

assist visits to prepare Ech-elon II commands for cyber-security and cyber readinessinspections.

Systems Commands -Strengthen cybersecuritythroughout the lifecycle ofsystems with the goal of“baking in” security fromthe beginning instead of“bolting it on” after systemsare fielded.● Developed technical stan-

dards for building more se-cure systems;● Helped develop and im-

plement the CYBERSAFEProgram. The Navy continues to

strengthen its cyber pos-ture. But remember, themost critical member of theNavy cybersecurity team isyou.

EFMP Provides Benefitsto Navy Families

The Exceptional FamilyMember Program (EFMP) is amandatory enrollment pro-gram that works with militaryand civilian agencies to pro-vide comprehensive and coor-dinated community support,housing, educational, medical,and personnel services to fami-lies with special needs.

“Sailors on active duty enrollin the program when theyhave a family member with aphysical, emotional, develop-mental, or intellectual disor-der requiring specializedservices, so their needs can beconsidered in the military per-sonnel assignment process,”Lt. Cmdr. Brent Dennis,EFMP program manager, said.“The overall goal of EFMP isto help families accompany theservice member to the rightduty locations; not to excludethem.”

EFMP helps address thechallenges that having a fam-ily member with special med-ical or educational needs.Families can receive help inmanaging appointments, an-swering questions and navi-gating medical andeducational systems. The pro-gram provides access torespite care to provide familieswith an opportunity to restand reenergize. EFPM also al-lows service members to focuson their mission by assuringthem that their families aregetting the care they need.

The EFMP module is onlineat the Navy Family Accounta-bility and Assessment Systemwebsite at http://navyfamily.navy.mil.
