Due to thisnew allowance, costs for security bars, secu-rity doors, burglar alarms, keys, and lockswere not included in the calculation of theMIHA Miscellaneous survey, which con-tributed to the decrease along with lowerelectricity, bottled gas, heating oil, sewer,trash and maintenance expenses reported.The next OHA Utility survey in Italy isscheduled for March 2016 and the nextMIHA survey is slated for 2018.

ITALIAN NEWS BRIEFSCOMPILED BY TERESA MEROLANSA NAPLES PUBLIC AFFAIRS

On July 30, 1942, Presi-dent Franklin D. Rooseveltsigned an act establishingWomen Accepted for Volun-teer Emergency Service(WAVES), in direct responseto the critical need for addi-tional military personnelduring World War II.Their official name was

the U.S. Naval Reserve(Women’s Reserve), but theWAVES nickname stuck. Bythe end of the war, morethan 80,000 officers and en-listed women had served inthe WAVES.

The word “emergency” im-plied that the acceptance ofwomen was due to the unu-sual circumstances of WorldWar II, and at the end ofthe war – when the emer-gency was over – thewomen would no longer beneeded by the Navy.Unlike the Women’s Army

Auxiliary Corps (WAAC),which was established inMay 1942, and was conside-red a unit working with theArmy, the WAVES wereconsidered a component inthe Navy. This small, butimportant distinction, ope-ned up the doors of equality


NAVY HISTORY: BIRTH OF THE NAVY WAVES

Antonio Carannante, a Bacoli native, hasbeen with the Navy for nearly 30 years. Heattended the Oriental Institute University(IUO) and completed two years of “Lan-guage and Literature of foreign languages.”In January 1986 he started at Naval Sup-port Activity as a security guard.

Since 2010, Carannante hasserved as an invaluable member of thetravel team for the Comptroller Depart-ment at Commander, Navy Region Europe,Africa, Southwest Asia (CNREURAFSWA),where he oversees the Government TravelCard program across the region as theLevel 4 Agency Program Coordinator (APC)and is primarily responsible for the is-

suance of cards and the timely payment ofbalances by travelers. His other primaryrole is within the Defense Travel System(DTS) as the Financial Defense Travel Ad-ministrator (FDTA). This includes estab-lishing and maintaining travel-specificbudgets down to the Installation and pro-gram level. His excellent customer serviceand general top-notch performance stems

from his never-waningmotivation which heattributes to the sup-port of his family andfriends. He enjoysplaying piano, photog-raphy and dancing.

for the women of theWAVES.WAVES were not allowed

to serve aboard combatships or aircraft, howeverthey held the same statusas their male counterparts,including rank and jobs,and they received the samepay and were subject to mi-litary discipline.Most WAVES worked as

yeomen doing clerical workor as store keepers, butsome took positions in avia-tion, hospital corps, commu-nications, intelligence, andother technological fields.Initially WAVES were re-

stricted to duty in the conti-

nental United States. As thewar progressed, WAVESwere authorized to serve inHawaii. The war ended be-fore WAVES could be sent toany other locations.On June 12, 1948, Con-

gress passed the Women’sArmed Services IntegrationAct (Public Law 625), whichallowed women to gain per-manent status in all mili-tary branches of the UnitedStates.This act made the WAVES

program obsolete, and a fewweeks later, on July 7, 1948,six women were sworn intothe regular Navy: Kay Lan-gdon, Wilma Marchal, Edna

Young, Frances Devaney,Doris Robertson, and RuthFlora.Later that fall, eight

women were commissionedas the first female officers ofthe regular Navy: JoyBright Hancock, WinifredQuick Collins, Ann King,Frances Willoughby, EllenFord, Doris Cranmore,Doris Defenderfer and BettyRae Tennant.In 1972, WAVES were offi-

cially disestablished, sincewomen were now integratedwithout limitations, exceptfor duty with submarinesand EOD/Dive/SEAL com-munities, into the Navy.

Computer System Energy EfficiencyENERGY CONSERVATION

From the NSA Naples Energy Management Team

At work, computer system energy efficiency means shuttingthings off when we don’t need them. Somebody else choosesour equipment and makes sure energy-saving “sleep mode”settings are enabled. Follow these simple steps to make sure your computer sys-

tem gets all the latest updates, but also saves the most energyby getting some of the same time off work that you do.●At the end of the day, shut down your computer by going to

the “Start/Shut Down” selection in the lower left hand cornerof your monitor.●Make sure your computer’s central processing unit is

plugged into surge-protected power that won’t be switchedoff when you leave.●Make sure peripheral units are plugged into a surge pro-

tected plug strip with a switch that is easy for you to reach,and switch it off when you shut down your computer. Periph-eral units may include your monitor, speakers, a personalprinter and scanner.

As long as you follow steps one and two above, your computercan be energized remotely during the night to receive softwareupdates. At home, in addition to shutting equipment off when you

don’t need it, you can save energy by buying ENERGY STARequipment and ensuring that power management “sleepmode” settings are enabled.You might also consider using a laptop instead of desktop

unit for an energy savings of 50 to 80 percent.

The following is the result of a General Courts-Martial in Naples, Italy, in June 2015.An E-3 was tried for sexual assault. On June 25, 2015, the panel of members returneda verdict of not guilty.

From the Office of the Chief of Information

Special and General Courts-Martial for June 2015

It has been three weeks since the Biggest Loser competition began. Based on the averageof last two year’s data, you can see below the weekly top Energy Consumers and top EnergySavers for NSA Naples. In the below charts it is indicated how much the facilities increasedor decreased the energy consumption in this third week. All facilities are still able to reduce energy consumption by practicing a few easy energy

saving tips.● Ensure all equipment is turned off when not in use. ● Shut-down computer monitors at the end of the workday.● Ensure lights are off when spaces are unoccupied.● Ensure office windows and doors are closed (minimize A/C load)

As an installation we should strive to cut back on consumption. It will save money and is agood practice to preserve our environment and resources.

Final Rule Puts More Teeth Into Military Lending ActThe Defense Department closed

loopholes to protect U.S. men andwomen in uniform from predatorylending practices, President BarackObama said on July 13, 2015, at the116th Veterans of Foreign Wars Na-tional Convention in Pittsburgh,Pennsylvania.The heightened level of financial

and consumer-rights protectionagainst unscrupulous practices,called the final rule of the MilitaryLending Act, covers all forms ofpayday loans, vehicle title loans, re-fund anticipation loans, deposit ad-vance loans, installment loans,unsecured open-end lines of creditand credit cards, DoD officials ex-plained.“We’re going to keep fighting to

give our troops and veterans achance to enjoy the American free-dom you helped defend,” the presi-dent told the veterans.

“There’s already a lot to protectour troops and families against un-scrupulous predatory lenders, butsome of the worst abusers -- likepayday lenders -- are exploitingloopholes to trap our troops in a vi-cious cycle of crushing debt,”Obama said.“It is the right thing to do,” he said

of the new rule."With this action, the depart-

ment takes an important standagainst companies that can preyon our men and women in uni-form,” Deputy Defense SecretaryBob Work said in a news releaseafter the president’s announce-ment.“This new rule addresses a range

of credit products that previouslyescaped the scope of the regulation,compromising the financial readi-ness of our troops. Today, with ourregulatory and enforcement part-ners, we stand united in support ofour service members and their fam-ilies," he continued.

Final Rule Results From 3-Year StudyThe revision began with a three-

year study by the Defense andTreasury departments, FederalTrade Commission,DoD officials said.Congress passed the

Military Lending Actin 2006 to provide spe-cific protections for ac-tive-duty servicemembers and theirfamilies in con-sumer credit trans-actions.Among other protec-

tions, the law caps at36 percent the interestrate on covered loans toactive-duty service mem-bers, requires disclosuresto alert service members oftheir rights, and prohibitscreditors from requiring a servicemember to submit to arbitration ina dispute.

New Rule Adds ProtectionThe latest rule allows for industry

compliance by Oct. 1, followed by astaggered implementation period,DoD officials said.

The rule will help protect allactive-duty service members

and their families fromcommitting to loans with

excessive fees andcharges.

Service membersstill will have access

to no-interestloans, grants, andscholarships fromthe four militaryrelief societies, and

not all credit prod-ucts will be affected

by the regulation -- no-tably residential mort-gages andpurchase-money loans

to buy cars, for example, which areexcluded from the MLA’s definitionof consumer credit, officials said.

SOUND OFF: HOW DO YOU UNWIND AT THE END OF THE DAY?

Do you know what youshould have in your kit tosustain you and your familyfollowing an emergency?How long should your kitlast you? In addition to the Emer-

gency Management staff ofNaval Support ActivityNaples, here are some on-line resources to help getyour kit started. Take alook at each one and tailoryour kit to meet your indi-vidual and family’s require-ments.

– Ready Navy:www.ready.navy.mil/BuildAKit/EmergencyKits/index.htm – FEMA’s Ready.gov:www.ready.gov/build-a-kit – The American Red Cross:http://upson.redcross.org/Media/checklist.pdf An emergency prepared-

ness kit should sustain you

and your family for at leastthree days. Because of theunique features and poten-tial hazards here in South-ern Italy, it is recommendedyou plan for one to two fullweeks of consumables (food,water, batteries, etc.), in ad-dition to the other items inthe kit. This will help withyou and your family’s im-mediate needs with mini-mal reliance on others. The severity of an emer-

gency event may be signifi-cant, and resources may beextremely limited and notimmediately available. At aminimum, your emergencykit should have the supplieslisted below. Plan for andmonitor expiration dates ofall kit contents. □Water (one (1) gallon perperson, per day stored ineasy to carry containers/(Recommend rotating/re-placing every six months) □ Food (Non-perishable,easy to prepare items) □ Baby/Infant Supplies - Diapers


- Wipes - Bottles - Food - Formula - Pacifiers - Clothing - Blanket(s) □ Flashlight□ Radio - Make sure theradio is battery or hand-crank and can receive AFNbroadcasts. □ Extra Batteries - Forflashlight, radio, other bat-tery-powered items. □ First Aid Kit - The Amer-ican Red Cross suggests thefollowing for a family of four - 2 absorbent compressdressings (5 x 9 inches) - 25 adhesive bandages (as-sorted sizes) - 1 adhesive cloth tape (10yards x 1 inch) - 5 antibiotic ointment pack-ets (approximately 1 gram) - 5 antiseptic wipe packets - 2 packets of aspirin (81 mgeach) - 1 blanket (space blanket) - 1 breathing barrier (withone-way valve) - 1 instant cold compress - 2 pair of non-latex gloves(size: large) - 2 hydrocortisone ointmentpackets (approximately 1gram each) - Scissors - 1 roller bandage (3 incheswide) - 1 roller bandage (4 incheswide) - 5 sterile gauze pads (3 x 3inches) - 5 sterile gauze pads (4 x 4inches) - Oral thermometer (non-mercury/non-glass) - 2 triangular bandages - Tweezers - First aid instruction book-let □Medications (7 day sup-ply) □Medical Supplies(Glasses, Contact Lenses,syringes, specialty batter-ies, etc.) □Multi-Purpose Tool (orsmall hand tools) □ Sanitation & PersonalHygiene Items □ Copies/Originals ofPersonal Documents - Medication List

- Important Medical Infor-mation - Passports - Birth Certificates - Immunization Record - Sojourner’s Permit - Housing Documents (In-ventory, Housing Contract,etc.) - Automobile Papers (Bill ofSale(s), Registration, etc.) - Insurance Policies - Powers of Attorneys □ Cell Phone(s) withChargers□ Family & EmergencyContact Information□ Emergency Blanket(s)or Sleeping Bag(s) □Map of the Area □Manual Can Opener □ Pet Supplies - Food - Water - Documents - Crate (Transport) - Tags & Collar- Leash

Another key point to con-sider is the portability ofyour kit. This may be the most challenging factor in

planning for and assem-bling your kit. If we were toremain in our homes duringand after an emergencyevent, we need to make sureour kits are accessible. Inthis case, the kit can bestored and maintained inlarge containers on a cabi-net. However, depending upon

the type and severity of theemergency event, we maybe required to evacuate ourhomes, or even the area. Inthis situation our emer-gency kit must be scaleddown to the supplies neces-sary to sustain us for ap-proximately three days. Wemust also plan for a methodof packing and carrying ouremergency kit. One suggestion is to place

the contents of your kit intoa portable container(s) andstore them. Another is tohave the portable contain-ers immediately available topack the supplies you havestored in larger containersor cabinet. The type ofportable containers you use

can be backpacks, small tomedium luggage withwheels, tear-resistant bags,etc. The key to portability is

just that – don’t pack youremergency evacuation kit ina container you cannot liftor carry. Also, take full ad-vantage of sharing the loadamong capable family mem-bers as much as reasonablypossible.The most effective way to

minimize the additionalstress of an emergencyevent in our lives is to pre-pare ourselves and our fam-ilies as much as possiblethrough discussions and de-velopment of our family’semergency plan and the as-sembly of our emergencykit. The following resourcesare for parents to use in get-ting their children involvedin the planning and prepa-rations through their under-standing of the facts: - Ready Navy Kids:www.ready.navy.mil/Kids/index.htm - FEMA’s Fun & Games forKids: www.ready.gov/kids - National Fire ProtectionAssociation:www.sparky.org/index.html

Over the past couple ofyears we have participatedin various earthquakedrills, and we will continueto do so in the future. Theseevents offer us an opportu-nity to educate ourselvesand one another about thelikelihood of an earthquakehere, and the importance ofpreparing ourselves to getthrough them. Consider the “what if’s” as-sociated with an earthquakeand what you need to do toprepare your emergencyplan and build your kit. Foradditional information,please contact your com-mand’s Emergency Manage-ment staff or visitwww.cnic.navy.mil/Naplesand click the “Operationsand Management” tab.

experienced the deep andlasting pain of combat loss.Today, here at home, we feelthat pain. And, at the same time, we

are reminded that we servewith and alongside braveand valiant Sailors andMarines – just like those atthe Recruiting Center andNaval Operational SupportCenter who are well trainedand responded courageouslyunder fire – the best our na-tion has to offer. In the days ahead, our pri-

ority will be to take care ofthe families of those af-fected. While the tragedy in Chat-

tanooga is both devastatingand senseless, the healingprocess is ongoing. We havebrought to town a cadre ofchaplains and grief coun-selors that are here to bol-ster our service membersand their families, and tofold into the great effortsthat are already being of-fered. The citizens of Chat-

tanooga have been incredi-bly generous with theirthoughts and prayers, whichare foundational and con-tinue to make a huge differ-ence during the process ofrecovery.

There is significant inter-est in the well-being of PettyOfficer Smith’s family, andthe same is true for the fam-ilies of our fallen Marines. Ihave met with Mrs. Smith;she is a remarkable and re-silient woman facing a hor-rific tragedy. She isappreciative of everyonewho has expressed theirconcern, yet she asks foryour understanding in re-specting her privacy as shemoves ahead during this dif-ficult time.I can assure you, without a

doubt, that we are honoredand humbled to serve ournation, both at home andoverseas. What Chattanoogahas done to rally during thisdifficult time is the epitomeof why we serve. God Bless America.

nificant in that thecontent included inthe update is allbased on Sailors'input and sugges-tions.eDIVO now con-

which was the idea of two Navy lieu-tenants, is designed to provide junior offi-cers and chief petty officers with access toinformation and resources that are easilyunderstood and immediately available. The app works either ashore or afloat. The

agile design process used to develop and de-ploy eDIVO is now being used as a modelfor future apps produced by the U.S. NavySea Warrior Program Office (PMW 240).

A visitor to the Armed Forces Communications and Electronics Association-U.S. Naval Institute(AFCEA/USNI) West 2015 convention tries the eDIVO application on a smart phone. eDIVO is a Navydivision officer information and management tool for mobile devices that aggregates documents, pro-viding easy access to the most commonly used and referenced official U.S. Navy information and re-sources.

● Almost 44,000 bicyclists have died intraffic crashes in the United States since1932 – the first year that bicycle fatality es-timates were recorded.● In 1997, 813 bicyclists were killed, and

approximately 58,000 were injured in traf-fic-related crashes. Children ages 14 andunder accounted for 232 (29 percent) ofthese fatalities, making this one of the mostfrequent causes of injury-related death foryoung children.● Each year almost 400,000

children ages 14 and underare treated in emergencyrooms for bicycle-relatedinjuries.● Universal bicycle hel-

met use by children ages4 to 15 would prevent39,000 to 45,000 headinjuries, and 18,000 to55,000 scalp and faceinjuries annually.● Bicycle hel-

mets are 85-88percent effec-tive in miti-gating headand brain in-juries, makingthe use of hel-mets the singlemost effective way to reduce headinjuries and fatalities resultingfrom bicycle crashes.● Despite the fact that 70 to 80

percent of all fatal bicycle crashes involvehead injuries, only 18 percent of all bicy-clists wear bicycle helmets.● Nationally, bicyclists ages 14 and under

are at five times greater risk for injury thanolder cyclists.● As with safety belts, child safety seats,

and motorcycle helmets, the enactment oflaws requiring the use of bicycle helmets-along with education and visible enforce-ment is likely to be the most promising wayto increase bicycle helmet usage.

Cost Savings● The estimated costof bicycle-related in-juries and deaths (forall ages) is $8 billion.● It is expensive to

treat bicycle-relatedhead injuries becausethese injuries can endure

throughout a lifetime.● Every $10 bike hel-met saves this coun-

try $30 in directhealth costs, andan additional $365in societal costs. Infact, if 85 percent ofall child bicyclistswore helmets everytime they rode a bi-cycle for a year, thelifetime medicalcost savings wouldtotal $109 to $142million.
