U.S. Senator Barbara A. Mi-kulski (D-Md.) visited and toured Naval Surface War-fare Center Indian Head Ex-plosive Ordnance Disposal Technology Division (NSWC IHEODTD), Oct. 5.
The senator first met with NSWC IHEODTD Com-manding Officer Capt. Vin-cent Martinez and Technical Director Ashley Johnson for organizational development updates — such as the divi-sion’s recent designation as a Center for Industrial and Technical Excellence activ-ity — before touring the Ad-vanced Energetics Research Laboratory to discuss how NSWC IHEODTD supports the warfighter.
“The men and women of Indian Head bring loyalty, honor, hard work and patri-
otism, true American values, to the job,” Senator Mikuls-ki said. “I’m here at Indian Head on my Maryland Jobs Tour to discuss my fight for jobs, jobs, jobs and the work being done to keep us safe over here while protecting our troops over there. I’m also so pleased to see first-hand the cutting-edge work being done day in and day out to keep our nation safer and Maryland’s economy stron-ger. Every day and in every way, they provide our fighting troops in uniform with the tools they need to keep us safe. I will continue to fight for the extraordinary workforce at Indian Head and their mis-sion critical to our national security.”

It would’ve been hard to or-der up a more beautiful day for a concert. The sun shone brightly and a fall breeze rustled fallen leaves as over 3,800 attendees filed onto the Naval Support Facility (NSF) Dahlgren Parade Field to hear country superstar Trace Adkins perform his top hits, and one song in particular that was a once-in-a-lifetime performance.
The concert opened with performers The Virginians, a barbershop chorus that sings across the world and competes internationally. After a beautiful rendition of the National Anthem, they lent their a capella harmony to a medley of songs saluting all branches of the service. The group, more than half of
whom are veterans, would take the stage again later in the evening for a memorable finish to the night.
U.S. Marines Matt Smith and John Ed Auer brought
their Smith Auer Band acous-tic country style to the stage and played original songs as well as country staples, such as “Folsom Prison Blues” and “Rocky Top.” Smith Auer
Band have performed nation-ally on Fox & Friends, as well as at the White House, rep-resenting the Marine Corps while bringing their extensive musical backgrounds togeth-
er to form a dynamic duo.Smith and Auer met while
active duty Marines and de-spite being separated geo-graphically for the last few months, Smith as a Reservist in Kentucky and Auer at Ma-rine Corps Base Quantico, the duo picked up where they left off, closing their set with a raucous version of “Wagon Wheel” that brought an avid accompanying chorus from the crowd.
The man of the hour, how-ever, would soon take the stage. Adkins is a veteran performer who started by singing in a gospel group in high school. After lots of jobs including time on an oil rig, his talent was noticed by an agent in Nashville.

2 Friday, October 16, 2015The South Potomac Pilot
By Barbara Wagner Staff Writer
One Mississippi. Two Mississippi. Three Mississippi...Nine Mississippi. Nine seconds. That is how often a wom-an is the victim of assault. On the aver-age, almost 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate part-ner in the United States. That equates to more than 10 million men and women annually. Domestic violence not only af-fects women but men as well and across all social strata. While the statistics may be unimaginable, the fact is this is an issue that touches more lives than we may be aware of. October is recognized as Domestic Violence Awareness Month and for 2015 the U.S. Navy is continuing its “One” campaign by declaring that, “Together We Are One Voice Against Domestic Violence.”
“Domestic abuse is no longer just thought of as a man being physically, emotionally or monetarily abusive to a woman. It cuts across all facets of rela-tionships to include husband versus hus-band, wife versus wife, and so on,” Capt. Mary Feinberg, commanding officer of Naval Support Activity South Potomac (NSASP) said. “Every human being mat-ters and deserves respect and kindness throughout their lives.”
It is often a misnomer that domestic violence only involves physical abuse. Another misnomer is the idea that, “they don’t hit me, so it’s not abuse.” There are many levels of abuse that can occur in a relationship that might never leave a physical mark but can cause long term emotional and psychological damage — PTSD isn’t just a wartime occurrence.
Emotional abuse can range from con-stant name calling, humiliation, exces-sive control, threats of violence or other tactics such as the threat of losing custo-dy of a child and in this high-tech society there is also the threat of digital stalking.
Another misconception that may oc-cur is, “It’s not rape if we are married.” The law of the land disagrees with this statement. Sexual abuse can and does happen within the confines of marriage and regardless of the marital state; rape, sexual assault or threats is still assault and is illegal.
Neglect is often not thought of as do-
mestic violence, however it does hap-pen. Preventing a partner from receiving proper medical attention, necessities such as food, clothing and shelter is a form of domestic abuse.
One aspect of neglect that can be more prevalent in military families stems from the fact that there are multicul-tural households in the military where one partner is from outside of the Unit-ed States of America. Preventing the non-native partner from proper accul-turation to a new environment creates stress, isolation and other psychological repercussions. Conversely, preventing the non-native partner from participat-ing in their own cultures and traditions can be equally as unfair.
While October is the month that we recognize and raise awareness of the issue of domestic violence, this is a year round issue. Engaging the local com-munity in awareness and offering sup-port to those who have been a victim of domestic violence is part of the solu-tion, and Naval Support Activity South Potomac (NSASP) Fleet and Family Readiness staff are prepared to offer as-sistance and relief.
Throughout the base purple ribbons have been hung as a visual reminder that domestic violence is a real issue

Naval District Washington (NDW) is celebrating national Energy Action Month this October.
The President has proclaimed October 2015 to be Energy Action Month. For the Navy and Marine Corps Energy Action Month is an opportunity to reinforce how critical energy is to accomplishing its mission, and to encourage Sailors and Marines to look for ways to optimize their energy use to boost warfighting ca-pabilities.
Designed to inform and educate per-sonnel about energy consumption and conservation, the campaign also hopes to encourage energy conservation and responsible usage by bringing aware-ness to the forefront.
“We, individually, can affect energy se-curity in a massive way by ensuring we make the most of every Watt we expend and every gallon of fuel we burn. The re-curring threat of government shutdown, hitting the debt ceiling, and sequestra-tion make it clear that our resources are limited, and therefore must be max-imized,” said Lt. Cmdr. James Shefchik, NDW Energy Program Manager. “While it takes money to purchase energy, ener-gy is an independent resource with lim-ited availability. In addition to the budget limitations, there are absolute limita-tions that must be valued.”
At NSF Dahlgren, an energy fair will be held on the Parade Field on Oct. 21 from 11 a.m. — 1 p.m. An energy fair will be held on Oct. 22 at the Mix House at NSF Indian Head from 11 a.m. — 1 p.m. The fairs are open to all with base access and will provide tips on how to conserve en-ergy at work and at home.
This year’s campaign theme is “Pow-er-Presence,” which is fundamental to the Navy and Marine Corps’ mission to ensure stability, deter potential adversar-ies, and present options in times of crisis, and they depend on access to secure and reliable energy.
“Expanding our ability to use alterna-tive forms of energy increases our ener-gy security by reducing dependency on foreign oil,” said Shefchik.
To promote awareness within the re-gion, NDW will be conducting a series of activities including an Energy Biggest Loser competition between installa-tions. The region and installation PAO’s will promote the contest in the month of October and provide tips and periodic updates throughout November.
“The Energy Biggest Loser contest uses the spirit of friendly competition to en-courage energy use reduction across the Region,” said Shefchik. “Each of the six NDW installations, including their major special areas, will compete. We will compare the electric usage in the month of November with the expected electric use. The prevailing Installation will win an additional $70,000 to fund
a facilities project of the CO’s choosing; second place will gain $50,000 and third $30,000.”
According to Shefchik, in addition to the Biggest Loser Competition, there will be a poster and video competition open to anyone affiliated with the base, including dependents. Other activities include recognition to the best building energy monitor. These competitions are all done in the spirit of energy action and reducing personal energy footprints; the winners will be recognized by NDW Commandant Rear Adm. Yancy Lindsey for their contributions.
In 2009, Secretary of the Navy (SEC-NAV) Ray Mabus set five energy goals for DON: increase alternative energy use Navy-wide, increase alternative energy ashore, reduce non-tactical petroleum use, sail the “Great Green Fleet,” and ac-quire energy efficiency, according to a 2012 DON Strategy for Renewable Ener-gy report.
Shefchik said “the Navy’s mission is to win wars, deter aggression, and to main-tain freedom of the seas. Energy is cen-tral to all action. Every decision, whether for a command, a program, a project or an individual has energy impact. Realiz-ing the inherent energy decisions allow leaders at all levels to choose more effec-tive use of our limited energy resources.” “As we find ways through everyday ac-tion to minimize our energy footprint, we free energy to make positive ripples throughout the Navy,” said Shefchik.
NDW Kicks Off Energy Action Month
both within and without the gates of the installation. At several commands with-in the installation including the AEGIS Training and Readiness Center (ATRC), special presentations are being held to raise awareness and provide guidance.
“As a commanding officer of a school-house, it is essential to raise awareness about domestic violence with my Sailors,” said Capt. Pete Galluch, commanding of-ficer, AEGIS Training and Readiness Cen-ter (ATRC). “This year’s theme ‘Together we are ONE VOICE against domestic vi-olence. Our HONOR, our COURAGE and our COMMITMENT will make a differ-ence’ says it all. If we take a stand together, both military and civilian, I truly believe we can end domestic violence.”
The National Domestic Violence Ho-tline at 1-800-799-7233 or 1-800-787-3224 (TTY) is available 24 hours a day for safety planning and referrals for local resources. You may also visit http://www.ndvh.org/ however, it is important to note that if you are in imminent danger you should imme-diately call 911 for assistance.
As we recognize the issue of domestic violence as a command through presen-tations, news articles as well as the purple
ribbons throughout the base it is import-ant to recall this is a year-round issue. When the ribbons come down at the end of October, the issue does not stop. We
must continue as a command to do ev-erything we can to remember the details we have learned and apply them during the 11 other months out of the year.

what he’d always wanted to do, he said that “it was always a dream, but I didn’t know how to make it come true. Everyone dreams of doing something they love so much, and to get paid for it, I’m just so lucky.”
He’s spent countless hours performing for the troops at USO shows and bringing awareness as well as raising funds for the Wounded Warrior Project. Adkins’ grandfather was in the Army, “but I never knew him. I don’t know exactly how it all started. I got a call from the USO and I said yeah, let’s do it,” he said. “Next thing I know, I’m traveling all over the world.” When asked if there was one specific memory that stood out, Adkins said, “all of those mo-ments are special. I love the military folks. I’ve gotten to do some great things I would never have been able to do.”
In addition to pre-performance meet and greet photos with fans, Adkins spent some time with local Sailors and Marines before taking the stage and delivering a solid performance to the enthusiastic crowd.
Adkins’ set included crowd favorites like “Honkytonk Ba-donkadonk,” “Ladies Love Country Boys,” “Every Light in the House,” “Marry for Money” and “Rough and Ready.”
Adkins said he attended the Grammy Awards several years ago for the first time after being nominated for the crowd favor-ite “You’re Gonna Miss This.”
“I thought I had a pretty good chance but I lost to some girl named Swift,” he said with a laugh, referring to mega artist Taylor Swift. “Wonder whatever happened to her?”
By far the most memorable moment of the evening was the last song of the night, Adkins’ sad ode to the military, “Say a Prayer for Peace.” The Virginians filed onstage at the start of the song, flanking Adkins as he sang about battles during the Civil War, World War II and Vietnam. The lights fell low as the har-mony of the Virginians sang the last chorus, “say a prayer for peace, for every fallen son.” An already sobering song became haunting as the a capella harmony reached the silent crowd. As the song ended, the crowd erupted.
Adkins, who had returned to the stage for an encore, said sim-ply, “I can’t possibly follow that. Thank you all for making my year,” nodding to The Virginians.
The crowd began assembling about 4 p.m. for the 7 p.m. show. They enjoyed pre-concert music from DJ Rick Fortner and vis-ited a variety of food booths, including German cuisine, barbe-cue, beach-themed food, pizza and subs. Two hundred concert-goers who purchased VIP tickets enjoyed a catered unlimited buffet of crab balls, chicken cordon bleu, bruschetta, a carving station with prime rib, cheesecake, assorted desserts and more.
“It was NSA South Potomac’s pleasure to work so diligently to get an artist of Trace Adkins’ caliber to the base for a show,” said Capt. Mary Feinberg, commanding officer, Naval Support Activity South Potomac. “Several months of hard work and co-ordination paid off for the entire base community. We knew going into the concert that it had been a long time since such an event was held on the base. Based on the comments NSASP personnel have heard, both during and after the event, I believe it was a resounding success,” said Feinberg. “We look forward to the opportunity to build on the momentum and success of this event and we are hopeful that we will be given an opportunity to host future concerts.”

engineer and program lead Dr. Greg Young to learn about his team’s work on hybrid rocket propulsion. Young and se-nior materials scientist Dr. Vasant Joshi both received the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development, and Acquisition), Dr. Delores M. Etter Awards for Top Scientists and Engineers earlier this year for their development of a hybrid rocket fuel that performs as well as solid rockets while creating a safer system that is throttleable, and can also be stopped and restarted in flight.
Mikulski was also briefed on synthesis and solution processing of inorganic materials. This work is focused on developing low-cost methods to produce metal and semiconduc-tor materials on substrates of interest, for a variety of applications including energy har-vesting, sensors, and energetics.
The Senator also saw a brief on the on the Agent Defeat program funded by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency. The command is helping to develop and test at the small-scale, new energet-ic formulations to neutralize biological warfare agents. This is an important ef-fort in advancing counter weapons of mass destruction capabilities.
“We appreciate Senator Mikulski tak-ing time out of her busy schedule to
visit NSWC IHEODTD, so that we could show her how the Command is support-ing the warfighter and making energetics and ordnance fly farther, hit harder and save lives,” said Ashley Johnson, NSWC IHEODTD Technical Director.
NSWC IHEODTD — a field activity of the Naval Sea Systems Command and part of the Navy’s Science and Engi-neering Enterprise — is a leader in ord-nance, energetics, and EOD solutions. The division focuses on energetics and ordnance research, development, test-ing, evaluation, in-service support and disposal; and provides warfighters solu-tions to detect, locate, access, identify, render safe, recover, exploit, and dis-pose of explosive ordnance threats.
