As I have mentioned before
the Navy is extremely concerned
with the number of motorcycle
accidents that our sailors are
involved in. One of the ways
that the Navy is attempting
to solve this problem is
by tightening the training
requirements for being allowed
to operate motorcycles on
Navy installations. Even if you

Through the Haze
You just can’t help but fall in
love with the Silver State during the
winter. If you love the outdoors,
Fallon is a feast for the eyes come
December. Snow starts appearing
on the Stillwater Mountains as your
eyes gaze east. To the south you
can clearly see mountains fifty to
seventy miles away with white-
capped majesty. Muted browns
give way to brilliant whites, the air
is cold and crisp, and if you’re really
lucky, you see deer graze on the
valley floor. It’s a season and views
you can’t grow tired of.
But with summer comes
wildfire season. Smoke and haze
fill the air and the views that inspire
us fade into a murky background.
This season has been so bad that on
occasion we have kept the children
indoors because of the quality of
the air. Later in the day, it’s usually
safer, but it makes me long for the
grand views. Especially in the wee
morning hours, if I didn’t know the
way towards the base, the trip could
be a bit unnerving. The haze and
the smoke make everything look
unfamiliar in the darkness.
The seasons of our lives can
often reflect the seasons of the
Silver State. There will be times
when life and love seem so clear, so
beautiful, and so crisp. Everything
is wrapped in brilliance and finery,
and you know how your world
should be. You can peer down your
life and you know how the journey
goes, and you are thrilled by the
prospects. You eagerly look around
the next corner for the wonders
that come into your life.
But then there are the other
times when everything seems to be
in the fog or haze. Your world is
clouded and grey. The forecast is
gloomy; the outlook is guarded and
grim. What once seemed so certain
and familiar is tentative and elusive.
You have an idea where you’re
supposed to go, but nothing looks
or feels the same.
I suspect one of the reasons for
guides for people travelling through
the Great West in the olden days
was precisely for the times when the
view was hazy, grey, and unfamiliar.
When the weather is clear and the
view is pristine, almost anyone can
get to the destination from their
starting point. A guide is needed
for those times in life when it’s not
so clear or certain.
Faith can be that help in
uncertain times. It leads us through
the illnesses, the cancer that comes
into our lives or the lives of those
we love. It helps us when we feel
discouraged or depressed, and is
there for us when the friendship
has faded away or when a love has
run its course. When God said that
He would never leave or forsake us,
it was a promise that He would be
there for us for the entire journey
of life. The Psalmist David was
so confident that he could count
on God’s presence even when he
walked through the valley of the
shadow of death. Through the haze,
he could see God guiding him to
green pastures and still waters. May
God grant you the faith that takes
you through the haze of life until
you can see the mountain majesty.

Sailors and Families Invited to Participate in
Fleet and Family Readiness Program Survey
Commander, Navy Installations Command (CNIC) is providing an opportunity for Sailors, family
members and military retirees to help shape the future of its Fleet and Family Readiness (F&FR) programs
by participating in the 2008 F&FR Customer Satisfaction Survey, July 7 through Aug. 7.
The survey will permit customers of Fleet and Family Readiness programs to voice their opinions on
a variety of topics. F&FR programs being surveyed include Child and Youth Programs, Fleet and Family
Support Programs, Morale, Welfare and Recreation (Liberty, Fitness, ITT, Movie Theaters, Library/
Resource Centers) and Navy Gateway Inns and Suites. The survey will be available online beginning July 7
at www.cfigroup.net/ffr.
The assessments were developed in consultation with Claes Fornell International, an independent
research firm. The results will provide Navy leadership with information that will be used to enhance
current programs and improve Navy quality of life.
“This is an outstanding opportunity for our Sailors and their families to make a difference in Navy-
wide quality of life programs,” said John B. Baker, director, Fleet and Family Readiness programs, CNIC.
“The results of the assessments will be used by Navy leadership to improve programs and services that
support the fleet, fighter and family.”

Air Wing Fallon kicks off
Joint Exercise
Story and photos by Casey Bain,
JFIIT, USJFCOM
Navy Carrier Air Wing Eight
(CVW-8) with support from Air
Force surveillance and electronic
warfare aircraft and an Army
Patriot battalion are working
closely together to defeat a three-
dimensional irregular warfare
threat over the snow-capped
mountains in the northern Nevada
desert to help prepare units for the
rigors of combat as they conduct
the largest joint integrated
training event (ITE) here in years,
according to officials at the Naval
Strike and Air Warfare Center
(NSAWC).
“Air Wing Fallon (AWF)
provides our forces with a realistic
and dynamic training opportunity
that replicates the way we fight
in theater,” said Rear Adm. Mark
Emerson, Commander, NSAWC.
“We provide end-to-end training
for the forces that train here. This
current exercise is a culmination
of almost six-years of planning,
coordination, and hard work.
We believe it provides a unique
joint training environment for the
entire carrier air wing including
joint terminal attack controllers,
Special Operations Forces, Air
Force command and control and
electronic warfare aircraft, and an

so they can learn how
to work together here
exactly like they will in
combat.”
This AWF ITE
incorporates a variety
of missions that test the
participants’ abilities
to work together as
a well-synchronized
joint warfighting team.
Mission types include
air warfare, joint
suppression of enemy
air defenses, joint close
air support, theater air
and missile defense,
and combat search and
rescue.
“The training
event here at Fallon provides a
great opportunity to conduct
superb joint training,” said Army
Maj. Gen. Howard Bromberg,
commanding general, U.S. Army
Air Defense Artillery Center at Ft.
Bliss, Texas. “Seldom have we been
presented with the opportunity to
train as part of this type of joint
integrated team with live air and
command and control assets.”
Helping to support this joint
integrated training environment
is U.S. Joint Forces Command’s
(USJFCOM) Joint Warfighting
Center ( JWFC) and the
Joint Fires Integration and
Interoperability Team ( JFIIT).
“AWF is a great example of how
an existing traditional service-level
training program can be enhanced
to conduct robust training that
integrates other participants and
services not normally found in
a carrier air wing rotation,” said
Michelle Lewis, JWFC program
coordinator for AWF ITE. “The
real and distinct value of this ITE
will be the synergy in training
value created by enabling CVW-8,
Army Patriot and other joint forces
to train together in an increasingly
complex and demanding
environment that will maximize
joint training and lessons learned

The earth is covered with water,
WHY CONSERVE
WATER?
yet only one percent is available for
drinking. Unfortunately, many of us
take this small percentage for granted.
The average adult needs only 2-1/2
quarts of water per day to maintain
health, but in the United States, we
each use 125 to 150 gallons per day
for cooking, washing, flushing, and
watering. That’s over 40 percent more
water than we need to accomplish
these tasks. Our wasteful habits not
only deplete clean water reserves faster
than we can replenish them, but they
pollute many waterways, rendering
them unfit for human consumption.
They also stress aging drinking water
and sewage treatment facilities beyond
their capacities. In each of the past
few years, wastewater treatment
systems dumped an estimated 2.3
trillion gallons of inadequately treated
sewage into U.S. coastal waters,
destroying beaches, fisheries, and
other marine life. We waste water
both by practicing bad habits, like
leaving the water running when
we brush our teeth, and by using
antiquated equipment not built with
water conservation in mind. Bad
habits can be difficult to change,
but new ones can save thousands
of gallons of water per year per
person. Installing new water-saving
equipment and small devices also
can save significant amounts of water
per household without requiring us
to change our daily routines. Many
devices are inexpensive, available in
local hardware stores, and easy to
install. They can save energy (and
FOR EVERY ROOM
IN THE HOUSE
• Repair leaky faucets, indoors and
out. One leaky faucet can use up to
4,000 gallons of water per month.
• Install faucet aerators. These
inexpensive devices can reduce
water use up to 60 percent, while
maintaining a strong flow.
IN THE KITCHEN
• When cooking, save 10 to 15
gallons of water per meal by peeling
and cleaning vegetables in a large bowl
of water instead of under a running
tap.
• When hand washing dishes, save
15 gallons of water by soaking dirty
dishes in the basin, then rinsing them
off.
• Run full-load dishwashers to save
15 gallons per load, and hot water
costs, too.
• When buying a new dishwasher,
select one with a “light-wash” option.
Newer models use 20 percent less
water than older ones.
IN THE BATHROOM
• Take short showers instead of
baths. Showers use an average of 5 to
7 gallons per minute, three times less
than the water used to take a bath.
• Install a low-flow showerhead.
This will cut water use in the shower
to just 3 gallons per minute and still
provide a invigorating flow.
• Turn off the water to brush teeth,
shave, and soap up in the shower.
Filling the sink to shave uses only 1
gallon, while letting the water run
can use up to 10 gallons per shave.
Turning off the water when you brush
your teeth can save 4 gallons of water
each time.
• Repair leaky toilets to save more
than 50 gallons of water per day. Add
12 drops of food coloring into the
tank. If color appears in the bowl one
hour later, the unit is leaking.
• Install a toilet displacement device
to save thousands of gallons of water
per year or 5 to 7 gallons per flush.
Place one to three weighted plastic
jugs into the tank, making sure the
jugs don’t interfere with the flushing
mechanism or a suitable flow. Or
instead of jugs, use toilet dams that
hold back a reservoir of water during
each flush, saving 1 to 2 gallons. Don’t
use bricks because they can chip and
foul the flushing mechanism.
• When buying a new toilet, select
a low-flush model that uses less than
1-1/2 gallons of water to flush, saving
over 7,000 gallons per year per person.
• Use 100% of your bar soap by
doing the following: When you get
down to that little sliver that you can
no longer use simply wet a new bar of
soap and stick the leftover piece to it.
The next time you use it the sliver will
be solidly affixed.
ON WASH DAY
• When purchasing a new washing
machine, buy a water-saving model
desert roundup
TAKING WATER
CONSERVATION OUTDOORS
• Mow your lawn with water
retention in mind. Set mower blades
on a high setting (2 to 3 inch grass
length as opposed to golf-course short)
to provide natural ground shade and
promote water retention by the soil.
• Water lawn and garden in the
morning when evaporation is lowest.
• Water no more than 1 inch per w
week, applied slowly to prevent
runoff. Place several empty cans P
around the yard when watering to C
determine how long it will take to m
water 1 inch. p
• Collect rainwater for water plants
using a barrel covered screen. f
• Plant indigenous species suited b
to your area and save as much as 54 d
percent the water used to care for o
outdoor plants. Ask your local nursery
for plant and grass species that require f
less water. g
• When washing your car, turn off m
the hose between rinses to save up to
o
150 gallons per washing.
• Sweep down decks and driveways l
instead of hosing them down. t
