Established in 1987, NavyExceptional Family MemberProgram (EFMP) was formedas a quality of life program toprovide coordination withoverseas screenings, network-ing, information, referral, edu-cation and nonmedical casemanagement. EFMP providesfor a multidisciplinary assign-ment tool to provide compre-hensive and coordinatedmedical, educational, commu-nity and personnel support tomilitary families with specialneeds.

What can EFMP do for me?For families to accompany

their active duty service mem-ber overseas each family mem-ber fills out a comprehensiveoverseas medical screening.This screening was developedto assure family memberswith special needs would haveaccess to the medical and edu-cational care they need.

Living overseas far from family and familiar resourcescan be stressful. Overseas inthe EURAFSWA region Military families have accessto non-medical case management to assist in goalsetting, needs assessments, coordinating providers and assisting with access to care.

Who needs to enroll?Military dependents (en-

rolled in DEERS) who havechronic medical, dental, men-tal health, developmental and/or educational conditions re-quiring special care services(excluding geographic bachelors and family members living in a residen-tial care facility).

When a child is on an Individual Education Plan, Individual Family ServicePlan or a Section 504 planthen the service member is required to complete the enrollment paperwork. If yourfamily member has recentlybeen diagnosed with an acuteor chronic medical or mentalhealth condition that is ex-pected to last six months orlonger then you are requiredto enroll in the EFMP pro-gram.

School is back in session, summeris coming to a close, and I’m look-ing forward to having fall weatherfor a change! In addition to havingour kids resume their formal edu-cation and hit the books, the startof the new school year marks thebeginning of many activities suchas the fall High School sports sea-son – Go Wildcats! – and otherfamily events such as Spooktacu-lar. The importance of educationcannot be overstated; it enrichesour cultural experience and im-proves our ability to achieve meaningful goals. Not just for our youth,but also for adults. I admire those who are taking advantage of themany undergraduate and graduate programs offered at NSA Naplesand I applaud the time and effort you put into these classes – it istime well spent. Be sure to make the most of your educational oppor-tunities, and if you have questions visit the Navy College Campus.

Now that the peak of PCS season is also drawing to a close, I wouldlike to remind everyone, especially new community members, aboutour emergency management notification system - AtHoc. AtHoc is asoftware suite designed to ensure critical information is available toour community. Most recently, it was used to alert our community ofthe train attack outside of Paris. The system can send messages to cellphones, email addresses, and ONE-NET desktops. Active Duty andCivilian sponsors are required to sign up for the service, and I urgeeveryone else to sign up as well. You can register by contacting theemergency management officer at sean.quinn@eu.navy.mil.

From time to time, I get questions about the water quality on our in-stallations. The water provided on Capodichino, Support Site, andCarney Park is safe to drink and tested regularly by my staff and pro-fessionals from the Naples USNH. More detailed information regard-ing the water quality on our installations is available in the drinkingwater consumer confidence report published July 7, 2015 athttps://www.cnic.navy.mil/regions/cnreurafswa/installations/nsa_naples/om/environmental_support/drinking_water_consumer_confidence_report.html. For water quality off base, the Naples Public Health Evalu-ation and health evaluation fact sheets have very good informationand can be found at https://www.cnic.navy.mil/regions/cnreurafswa/in-stallations/nsanaples/about/health_awareness.html.

Finally, just a little on social media. The use of social media through-out modern society has increased communication, enabled a greatersense of community, and revolutionized the accessibility of informa-tion. Unfortunately, social media is often used without much consider-ation for potential effects on personal image, careers, and security. Atruism in many professional communities is “if you don’t want it to beon the front page, then do not put it online.” This is especially relevantto our community at NSA Naples. Please ensure you understand theprivacy settings set on your devices or webpages, and think aboutwhat information you choose to share. Could a bad actor take advan-tage of that information? Play it safe and please report suspicious ormalicious behavior.

Enjoy the long weekend, drive safe, and please take some time dur-ing the Labor Day holiday to think about the contributions workershave made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.

On September 9, 1945, thefirst “computer bug” is firstidentified and named by Lt.Grace Murray Hopper whileshe was on Navy active dutyin 1945. It was found in theMark II Aiken Relay Calcula-tor at Harvard University.The operators affixed themoth to the computer log,where it still resides, with theentry: “First actual case ofbug being found.” They “de-bugged” the computer, firstintroducing the term.Hopper was born Grace

1992. Owing to the breadth ofher accomplishments and hernaval rank, she is sometimesreferred to as “AmazingGrace.” In 1966, Hopper retired from

the Naval Reserves, but wascalled back to active duty oneyear later. The navy wantedher to oversee a program tostandardize its computer pro-grams and their languages.One of the programs she hel-ped to develop was COBOL,an English-based program-ming language that was ahuge leap forward in techno-logy.Hopper considered her grea-

test accomplishment to be allthe young people she trained.She spent a lot of time lectu-ring and writing. Many of heranalogies and examples havebecome legendary. Hopper isresponsible for “debugging”the computer. She coined thephrase after finding a mothinside a computer. She car-ried a one-foot piece of wirewith her to represent a nano-second, based on the fact thatone foot is the distance thatlight can travel in one nano-second. She used this as away to explain why program-mers should not waste time,not even a microsecond. In honor of her accompli-

shments, the Navy decided toname a ship after her, theUSS Hopper (DDG 70), an Ar-leigh Burke-class guided mis-sile destroyer. The ship waslaunched on Jan. 6, 1996, andwas sponsored by Hopper’s si-ster Mary Murray Westcote.She was commissioned onSept. 1997, in San Franciscoto be near Silicon Valley, inhonor of the ship’s namesake.Hopper is only the second

ship to be named for a womanfrom the Navy’s own ranks.The other was the World WarII destroyer USS Higbeenamed for the Superinten-dent of the U.S. Navy NurseCorps during World War I,Lenah Higbee.

standard daily working uniform, the Navy BlueCoverall will be discontinued as a Navy uniform andre-designated as a dirty work component only.Sailors will wear only the name tape on the cover-alls. This policy decision is based on the requiredwear of the flame resistant coverall at sea and theNWU1 ashore as the standard daily working uni-forms. Two sets of coveralls will continue to be is-sued and maintained in the sea bag for all enlistedSailors.

- Unit commanding officers at sea or regional com-manders will be able to grant permission to wearthe Navy Black Knit Watch Cap for Sailors duringcold weather conditions. The watch cap can be wornwith service dress and service uniforms, except serv-ice dress white and summer white uniforms whenworn with appropriate outer wear (specifically,NWU and CWP, all weather coat, reefer, pea coatand bridge coat). The cap cannot be worn with theEisenhower jacket as it is not considered coldweather outer wear.

Additionally, effective immediately, flag officersmay now wear a command-at-sea or a commandashore/project manager insignia pin they previouslyearned. This change recognizes the importance andcommitment the Navy places on command. Flag offi-cers shall wear the pin in the post command posi-tion, and only one pin can be worn.

Some uniforms components are being discontin-ued, due to their infrequent wear and use by Sailors.The uniform items that will no longer be authorizedfor wear beginning Oct. 1, 2016, include the male of-ficer and chief petty officer (CPO) boat cloak; thewomen's dress cape for officers and CPOs, tiara andberet; for men and women – the khaki windbreakerfor officers and CPO and overshoes.

A fast way to save EnergyENERGY CONSERVATION

From the NSA Naples Energy Management Team

Do you want to know the fastestway to conserve energy, besidesnot using it at all? It is a simplechange. Use LED lights. LEDs aresix times more effective thanthe traditional incandescentlight bulbs. Their effectiveness re-duces energy consumption by 80percent. Although LEDs may cost slightly

more than incandescent light bulbs,they have proven to last about 25times longer and could save you more money over time.The Solid State Lighting Program from the Department en-

ergy is continuously researching improvements to the LEDmanufacturing process to make purchasing LEDs more afford-able for consumers.The DOE’s goal is to have the entire country switched to

LED lights by 2030. If successful this could save the UnitedStates $250 billion in energy cost each year.

BOTTLED WATER ADVISORY From NSA Public Affairs

Except for those living at the Support Site andCapodichino, bottled water is recommended.Treated water is provided free of charge at a

dispenser located outside the Capodichino eastparking garage.All economy leases negotiated through the

Housing office have a bottle water clause,which requires the landlord to provide bottledwater. Work with landlords to have any water hold-

ing tanks disinfected twice a year, and ensureyour tap water is disconnected from non-permit-ted wells and connected only to the city water system.

Worn-Out Warriors? ONR Looks at Importance of Sleep to Warfighters

To discuss the impact ofsleep deprivation onwarfighters, and share ideason how to make sleep morerevitalizing, the Office ofNaval Research (ONR) andthe Department of Defense’sHuman Performance Opti-mization Advisory Commit-tee on Aug. 4 held aworkshop titled the “Restora-tive Effects of Sleep.”Americans are famously

hard chargers who usuallydon’t get enough shut-eye.That’s particularly true inmilitary ranks, where opera-tional tempo is fast pacedand mission completion para-mount. Sleep can become acasualty, and fatigue toooften a reality.“In the military, the mission

comes first,” said Lt. Cmdr.Chris Steele, ONR’s Circa-dian, Sleep and Fatigue pro-gram manager. Steele’s teamsupports research on the ef-fects of sleep loss onwarfighters-and ways to in-

crease physical and mentalresiliency. “You aren’t alwaysable to get as much sleep asyou should. Our goal is tofind ways to improvewarfighter endurance andmake the sleep they get asrestful as possible. After all,sleep has a direct impact onperformance and missionreadiness.”Workshop speakers in-

cluded Dr. Charles Czeisler,professor of sleep medicine atHarvard Medical School, andDr. David Dinges, chief of theDivision of Sleep andChronobiology at the Univer-sity of Pennsylvania. Bothare responsible for ground-breaking research in humancircadian (24 hour) rhythmsand the physiological and be-havioral effects of sleep dep-rivation.“You have military people

who are working 18-hourshifts or participating in nightoperations and training exer-cises lasting for hours,” saidCzeisler. “Such a lack of sleepis harmful. We must empha-size how crucial sleep is to

health and performance.”Workshop discussions cov-

ered topics such as the valueof power naps, whether tosplit up warfighters’ sleeptime over the course of a day,and if daytime sleep is asbeneficial as nighttime sleep. Presenters also highlighted

current sleep research en-deavors, many of which aresponsored by ONR. These in-cluded the value of establish-ing fixed work-restschedules, monitoring alert-ness with and without properrest and the effects of caf-feine during sleep loss. “There’s also research spon-

sored by ONR targeting thenewly discovered glymphaticsystem of the brain,” saidSteele, who holds a doctoratein zoology. “That’s an inter-nal plumbing system thatmay open during sleep, let-ting fluid flow through thebrain, enabling it to flush outtoxins that build up duringwaking hours. Essentially,sufficient sleep could literallyclear your head.”Besides its military focus,

Steele said he believes theconversations emerging fromthe workshop will benefit thegreater public: “People aremore aware of the impor-tance of sleep than ever be-fore. We’re all busier, morestressed and have a hardtime disconnecting from oursmart devices at night. All ofthat impacts the quantity

and quality of our sleep.”Steele’s work aligns with

the Naval S&T Strategy,which emphasizes health andresilience as key componentsof warfighter performance.Last year, ONR hosted afocus area forum to discusshow science and technologycan improve warfighter per-formance and resilience.

Top September Events in NaplesBy Lou Freed

The moment has arrived tolook towards annual Septemberhappenings that pave the wayfor the fall season. And, to en-hance this transition period,Naples’ event planners haveblended new initiatives withtraditions on this month’s cal-endar. Incidentally, don’t let theend of summer stop you fromthinking about fall cruising.This transition period is ab-solutely perfect with beautifulweather, no crowds and reducedsailing rates. Each September in Naples,

San Gennaro or St. Januarius,the city’s protector secures thespotlight for the miraculous liq-uefaction of the martyr’s bloodSeptember 19 or thereabouts. Inanticipation of the event, thephenomenon, said to stave offdisaster and protect the city, an-nually begets an array of activi-ties including a makeshiftNaples Pizza Village along thecity’s waterfront. There, anarmy of chefs paint the town redwith the city’s culinary symbol.Also, Pozzuoli (where the saintwas martyred) along with itsPhlegrean Fields neighbors getsfired up to host myriad archeo-enogastronomical events underthe “Malazè” program. New features on Naples’ cal-

endar include the “OrientalFestival” at Mostra d’Oltremareor Naples’ Overseas ExhibitionCenter September 11-13 andSeptember 18-20. Additionally,the NapolartExpo for local artsand crafts is scheduled Septem-ber 5-27 along with the agri-ali-

mentation exhibition, MAGNA,through December 31. Also take advantage of the free

entry to state museums and ar-chaeological sites September 6following the July 2014 decree ofItalian Minister of CultureDario Franceschini. The direc-tive provides free entry to thesemuseums the first Sunday ofeach month. Visit http://www.beniculturali. it/domenical-museo to learn more.For classical music fans, the

San Carlo Theater will inaugu-rate its Symphonic Season Sep-tember 12 with India native,Zubin Mehta renderingTchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 4Op. 36 and Symphony No. 6Op. 74 “Patetica.” Visit http://www.teatrosancarlo.it for de-tails.Beyond Naples, the annual

Grape Fest with a float paradein Solopaca returns September13. Although the town’s eventcoincides with Naples’ pre-SanGennaro Feast Day celebra-tions, there’s no relationship be-tween the two sites’ initiatives.Something the town has incommon with San Gennarothough, is that the saint wasborn in Benevento, Solopaca’sprovince. Each year, floats areconstructed using thousands(millions?) of grapes to cele-brate the month of the grapeharvest. View the event posterat https://www.facebook.com/prolocosolopaca

San Gennaro FestTo commemorate Naples’

beloved patron saint, a morningMass is scheduled at Naples

Cathedral as well as at thesaint’s cozy namesake church inPozzuoli September 19. Townresidents believe the hill toppedby a cross above San GennaroChurch was the site where Ro-mans decapitated the goodbishop of Benevento. Othersspeculate the martyrdom tookplace right where the churchnow stands. Customarily, brightly colored

Labor Day, the first Monday inSeptember, is a creation ofthe labor movement andis dedicated to the socialand economic achieve-ments of Americanworkers. It consti-tutes a yearlynational trib-ute to the con-tributionsworkers havemade to thestrength, prosperity,and well-being of our country.Through the years the nation gave

increasing emphasis to Labor Day.The first governmental recognition camethrough municipal ordinances passedduring 1885 and 1886. From these, amovement developed to secure state leg-islation.The first state bill was introduced into

the New York legislature, but the first tobecome law was passed by Oregon onFebruary 21, 1887. During the year fourmore states – Colorado, Massachusetts,New Jersey, and New York – created theLabor Day holiday by legislative enact-ment. By the end of the decade Connecti-cut, Nebraska, and Pennsylvania hadfollowed suit. By 1894, 23 other states had adopted

the holiday in honor of workers, and onJune 28 of that year, Congress passed anact making the first Monday in Septem-

ber of each year a legal holiday inthe District of Columbia and the

territories.

Who First ProposedLabor Day?

More than 100 yearsafter the first Labor

Day observance, thereis still some doubt asto who first pro-posed the holidayfor workers.

Some records show thatPeter J. McGuire, general

secretary of the Brotherhoodof Carpenters and Joiners anda cofounder of the American

Federation of Labor, was firstin suggesting a day to honor those “Whofrom rude nature have delved and carvedall the grandeur we behold.”But Peter McGuire’s place in Labor Day

history has not gone unchallenged.Many believe that Matthew Maguire, a

machinist, not Peter McGuire, foundedthe holiday. Recent research seems tosupport the contention that MatthewMaguire, later the secretary of Local 344of the International Association of Ma-chinists in Paterson, N.J., proposed theholiday in 1882 while serving as secre-tary of the Central Labor Union in NewYork.What is clear is that the Central Labor

Union adopted a Labor Day proposal andappointed a committee to plan a demon-stration and picnic

SPECIAL NEEDS from page 1

September is National Preparedness Month, and whilepreparedness calls for year-round attention, it is a goodopportunity to remind Defense Department personneland their families to be prepared at all times to respondquickly to disasters and emergencies. This year’s na-tional preparation theme is, “Don’t Wait. Communicate.Make Your Emergency Plan Today.”

Mission Readiness is Key“Preparedness is the shared responsibility of our entire

nation,” Deputy Defense Secretary Bob Work noted inan Aug. 21 DoD-wide memorandum. “Preparing individ-uals, families, components and installations for disas-ters and emergencies – from flooding to an activeshooter – ensures the strength of our workforce and ourability to continue to safeguard U.S. security.”

What DoD Personnel Can DoDoD’s preparedness campaign encourages personnel

and families to participate this month in three keyways:-- Take action: Know your hazards, create an emergencycommunications plan and build an emergency kit;-- Be counted: Have your organization complete the DoDsurvey at defense.gov/prepare, and register your actionat ready.gov/prepare; and-- Spread the word: Tell others about your actions andencourage them to take part.

Staying Prepared at WorkAt work environment, employees must be aware of

evacuation routes, shelters, and have a ready-to-go kit.

Staying Prepared at HomeFamilies should prepare by keeping a kit with 72

hours’ worth of food, water, medications and up-to-dateessentials, such as flashlight batteries. Your home kitshould also be kept in an easy-to-access place.Supplies and necessities should be ready to go in a mo-

ment’s notice for each family member and every pet athome. Other often overlooked details to consider are having a

full tank of gas for your car, and making advance plansfor pet care is part of family preparedness, to keep themsafe and secure, with plenty of food, water and medica-tions as needed. Finally, family preparedness planning should also in-

clude communicating with relatives, friends and theservice member’s chain of command.
