ZOn April 21, 1950, VC-5 Commanding Officer Capt. John Hayward made the first takeoff
1'of the AJ-1 heavy-attack plane from the aircraft carrier USS Coral Sea (CV-43). His pilots
completed carrier qualifications in August and become the first operational AJ-1 Savage
squadron. The AJ-1 aircraft above is landing aboard USS Wasp (CV-18) in March of 1952.

The North American AJ-1 Savage was a composite-powered, carrier-
borne attack aircraft designed to deliver nuclear ordnance. The Savage
also performed photo-reconnaissance duties and was later used as
an aerial refueling platform. The aircraft's two turbocharged Pratt &

Shame on the governmentfor scaring its military


'By Sarah Smiley
.Special Contributor

' Dustin and I came up with
.a plan: if we didn't receive his
.full military paycheck on April
15th (ironically, the date we are
'required to pay Uncle Sam his
,due) this month, we would dip
l3nto our savings.
Z But what if we didn't receive
' he next month's paycheck at

SWell, we'd just cross that
J ridge when it came.
" On the night of April 8th,
'thousands of military families
;were having the same discus-
'sion.
w. And, although Congress and
'.President Obama came to an
agreement (sort of) about the
budget at the literal eleventh
hour, ensuring that the govern-
ment would not shutdown and
service members would receive
their pay, the fact that military
families had to consider these
possibilities will have long-term
consequences for the overall
health of the armed services.
Military service is built on a
trust: service men and women
sacrifice everything from time
with family to their own lives
with the understanding that
the government will always take
care of them monetarily and
otherwise.


Indeed, recruiters often use
"job (read: paycheck) security"
as a tool to enlist new members.
In the middle of this poor
economy, I have heard more
times than I can count, "Well, at
least your husband is in the mil-
itary and you'll always get paid."
And, really, why else would
a family put up with year-long
separations, eight moves in 10
years and a job description that
often comes with the label "haz-
ardous duty" if they -couldn't
count on being paid?
When I have lost all patience
with the military lifestyle,
when I say that I can't possibly
deal with more deployments
and transfers, Dustin usually
reminds me of the benefits of
service: mainly, financial secu-
rity. Our one certainty is that
Dustin has a job.
Only the military can get
away with this seemingly solid
and reciprocal exchange of sac-
rifice and service.
Imagine a civilian corpo-
ration telling a prospective
employee, "We can't tell you
when, where or how often you'll
move. We can't promise that
you'll be there for your dad's
funeral or your daughter's birth.


We also can't promise what job
you'll be doing or when. Sound
good? Oh, and by the way, we
hope that you are ready to die
for us."
The prospective employee's
next question would be, "And
you said I'll make how many
millions of dollars for this?"
It is a very delicate proposi-
tion, this trust between the mili-
tary and its members.
Service members sometimes
report to duty under the worst
of circumstances: when perhaps
it is more instinctive to stay
behind and protect their fam-
ily, when they know it could cost
them their life, and even when
they don't necessarily agree
with the mission.
What. other corporation
could inspire such loyalty in its
employees? And it's all because
service members have an
unshakable trust that their gov-
ernment will take care of them.
Always.
That trust came under ques-
tion April 8th. Service members
and their families wanted to
know:
Do I still have to report to
duty if I'm not getting paid?
In most instances, yes.


Will I be disciplined if I refuse
to follow orders while I'm not
getting paid?
Probably. (Ironic, isn't it?
Service members are expected
to hold up their end of the bar-
gain; the government is not.)
Can my spouse come home
from deployment if he's not get-
ting paid?
No.
How will Congress and
President Obama answer to the
first family whose military loved
one is killed in action during the
military shutdown, while basi-
cally working on an "I owe you"?
(I never saw an answer to
this. In fact, it was reported that
death benefits would cease dur-
ing the shutdown.)
Luckily, none of these ques-
tions and answers were put to
the test.
But it is unfathomable if
only considering the govern-
ment's own self-interest in
ensuring the military's sense
of security that leaders in
Washington pushed us peril-
ously close.
Whereas before military
families never questioned that
they would be compensated for
their sacrifices, now, for the first


time, they realize non-payment
is a viable option. Which is to
say, on the morning of April 9th,
while the government and most
of the country rejoiced that a
"solution" had been found, you
could almost hear the confi-
dence of military families shat-
ter.
On April 10th, it was a new
military, one where "job secu-
rity" is not a major selling point
and where soldiers hesitate,
if even for a second, before
embarking on a dangerous mis-
sion to question the govern-
ment's loyalty to them.
On April 15th, Dustin
received two paychecks, each
for half the amount of his nor-
mal salary.
That's because the military,
expecting a shutdown, had
already prepared half-pay-
ments. That's how close our
country came to not paying its
military.
And how close did my hus-
band come to not going to work
during the shutdown? How seri-
ously did he consider ditching
his duties until he got paid?
He never not for a second
- doubted that he'd be at work
Monday morning, that he would
keep up his end of the deal.
Paycheck or no paycheck.
Shame on the government for
considering not doing the same.

First Lady, Dr. Biden


to 'shine light' on


military families

By Elaine Sanchez
American Forces Press Service

First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden said
they have spoken with countless military families in
their travels and heard some "breathtaking" stories of


service and sac-
rifice.
They've talked
to wives deal-
ing with fourth
and fifth deploy-
ments, to chil-
dren stepping up

families, and to

First Lady Michelle Obama and
Dr. Jill Biden talk to American
Forces Press Service reporter
Elaine Sanchez on April 6
about "Joining Forces," the new
White House initiative to raise
awareness about the challenges
facing military families, in the
Map Room at the White House.
The initiative encourages all
Americans to do something to
support military families.


from Jobs and homes to care for a wounded loved one.
It's now time, they said, for the rest of the nation to
hear these stories.
Obama and Blden plan to spotlight these stories
in the coming months through their nationwide ini-
tiative, called Jloining Forces." Joined by President
Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden, they
announced the April 12 launch of this campaign, that
aims to bring together every sector of this nation --
from individuals and communities to businesses and
nonprofits -- to support and honor service members
and their families.
At the White House, the first lady and Dr. Biden sat
down with American Forces Press Service to discuss
what they feel are military families' biggest challenges
and to outline the steps they plan to take to address
them.
They said the first step in this journey is to raise
awareness of military families and to "shine the light
on their voices."
"These families, and the men and women who
serve, represent the best of this country," the first lady
said. "They struggle and have challenges, but are suc-
ceeding in the face of some devastating circumstanc-
es, and they are patriotic and dedicated and ready to
do it again."
Obama and Biden said they plan to focus on three
key areas in their campaign education, employment
and mental health and wellness. Based on their con-
versations with families, these areas reflect the issues
families most frequently face.
As a long-time teacher, Biden said education issues
are particularly close to her heart. Military families -
who move up to six or seven times over the course of
a military career must tackle the ongoing challenges
of multiple school transfers, dealing with everything
from records transfer delays to struggling to meet
grade requirements.
Employment is an area of longstanding concern for
military spouses, the first lady noted. Military spouses
- who are "highly skilled professionals in their own
right" move so often that it's tough to build up a con-

MA2 Rodney Duggins
of the NAS Jax Security
Department was wel-
comed home by base per-
sonnel from his Individual
Augmentee (IA) deployment
April 15 at Heritage Park.
Duggins was deployed to
NS Guantanamo Bay, Cuba
for the past 13 months,
working in detainee opera-
tions.
"It was a stressful tour
working in the camp for the
past 374 days but I kept my
head up. It was a long tour
and I'm thrilled to be back
home. My kids and wife are
really happy I'm back. It's
a wonderful feeling to be
welcomed back by all my
friends and co-workers,"
said Duggins.
"I was born and raised
here and am so happy to be
home."
Among those welcoming
Duggins home was NAS Jax
Director of Security Lt. Tim

Johnson.
"I know what you went
through on your tour in
Gitmo. I did a tour down
there myself as camp com-
mander, walking those
blocks. It's asymmetrical
warfare down there and to
be able to keep your profes-
sional demeanor speaks vol-
umes about the man we wel-


come home today. That is
the second front on the war
down there," said Johnson.
"Thank you for what you
did while deployed."
After some well-deserved
leave time, Duggins will
resume his duties with the

ment as a patrolman and
gate guard.

sistent work history or to main-
tain certifications and licenses
that vary from state to state, she
said.
Above all, the nation "needs to
make sure families are healthy
S. .and have all the care they
need," the first lady said. After a
decade of multiple deployments
and related stressors, troops and
their families need support that
isn't stigmatizing and is confi-
dential and effective, she added.
"This has to be hard," Obama
said of the struggles that troops
and their families face, "emotion-
ally, physically, financially, you
name it."
Obama and Biden said they're
particularly concerned for the
nation's nearly 2 million military
children. In recent years, stud-
ies have revealed the impact of
deployments on these children -
from their performance in school
to their psychological well being.
The nation needs to step up
care for these children, who are
serving in their own way along-
side their military parents, the
first lady said.
"They're doing it quietly,
maybe not even indicating what
they're going through unless
there's a song played or some-
thing triggers it," Obama said.
"We should know ahead of time;
we shouldn't wait for those trig-
gers."
Military families are strong,
they said, but this strength can
sometimes translate into a reluc-
tance to ask for the support they
need.
"They don't complain and they
won't ask for help," the first lady
said. "They feel they should be
handling this burden."
Families living on military
installations often lean on each
other. But it's often tougher for
National Guard and Reserve fam-


ilies, Obama noted, who may live
away from a base and the readily
available support systems there.
Biden said she recently got
together with a group of women
to deliver baby gifts to a wife of
a deployed service member who
was about to have a baby.
"They're not asking for this;
they're proud, resilient," she said.
"Be we as Americans need to
appreciate the sacrifice they're
making for us."
Throughout the campaign,
Obama and Biden said they'll
ensure these stories are heard,
and afterward, they'll put forth a
call to action that will encompass
all sectors of society.
"It's that call to action that I
think this country will respond
to positively to say let's step up
and care for these families, these
veterans," the first lady said.
"Let's end homelessness
among veterans once and for all,"
she continued. "Let's take care
of military children and make
sure they have everything they
need to pursue their dreams and
more."
Obama and Biden will be call-
ing on all Americans to help,
whether it's with an offer of child
care, shoveling a driveway or
cooking a family a meal.
The greatest testament to their
efforts will be a continuationof
support for military families,
they said.
"We must be prepared for a
sustained effort and I hope that
this campaign will support this
role, that it will become part of
the fabric of this country," she
added, "and when we're long
gone and the next president has
taken office, this is just some-
thing we do, that all sectors of
society have figured out how to
incorporate this into their mis-
sion now and forever."

'Pelicans' fly to Lone Star Navy Week

The "Pelicans" of VP-45 joined the
"Rampagers" of VFA-83, and the U.S.
Navy Parachute Team, the "Leap Frogs,"
in Austin, Texas to take part in the city's
2011 Navy Week celebration March
19-26.
In conjunction with Rodeo Austin,
the event was packed with participants
demonstrating the heritage and mission
of the U.S. Navy.
"The goal of every Navy Week is to
give area residents an opportunity to
meet some of the Navy's Sailors and
learn about the Navy's missions and
its wide ranging capabilities," said Lt.
Cmdr. Lisa Braun, officer in charge of
Austin Navy Week.
The Pelicans' crew eagerly took ques-
tio.ns from guests of all ages, includ-
ing members of local Cub Scout Troop
218. Friends and family of the scouts
were treated to a tour of the P-3C
Orion and given an introduction to its
unique mission and place in today's
Navy. Questions fielded ranged from

Master Chief Petty Officer
of the Navy (MCPON)(SS/SW)
Rick West testified for the first
time before the Personnel
Subcommittee of the Senate
Armed Services Committee,
April 13.
West, along with the other
top enlisted leaders from the
Marines, Army and Air Force,
appeared before the commit-
tee to discuss the health of their
forces, quality of life programs,
family readiness, continuum of
care, Reserve force and family
housing.
"Current operational de-
mands and high operating
tempo have placed added stress


on the force," said West.
"Our many personnel and
family readiness programs
remain one of our Navy's high-
est priorities."
Navy's Homeport Ashore pro-
gram, bachelor and Navy fam-
ily housing, childcare, and con-
tinuum of care were important
issues that were brought up to
the congressional subcommit-
tee.
"One area that has had recent
significant impact on qual-
ity of life for our families that I
feel the need to highlight is the
Continuing Resolution (CR) for
Fiscal Year 2011," said West.
He detailed how the spend-
ing restrictions under the CR
resulted in considerable delays

BALFOUR BEATTY COMMUNITIES


Placing a maintenance work order for family housing
just got a whole lot easier and more user-friendly for
Residents at NAS Jacksonville. Balfour Beatty Communities
is pleased to announce that it has launched a new web-based
work order system on their website at nasjacksonvillehomes.
com where residents can now report and track the status of
their maintenance work orders from their home as well as
view Community Bulletin Board announcements.


"We were hearing from our residents that they
wanted to see where their work order was in the system,
so we reviewed a number of applications that would be the
best fit for our residents and we believe that this new app
will increase customer satisfaction and they'll know that we
are listening," said Diana Heintz, Community Manager for
Balfour Beatty.


To utilize the new application, residents must first
obtain a registration code from Balfour Beatty's Community
Management office 904-908-0821 and then simply create a
user account. To set up an account, residents should go to
the website nasjacksonvillehomes.com, click the "Submit a
Service Request" link under "Valuable Links" on the website
and enter in their personal information.


In addition to the added features of the new
application, once registered, residents will receive e-mail
notification of completed maintenance work orders as a
follow up to ensure that the service was satisfactory.


"We're always looking for ways to keep resident
satisfaction high and we are hoping that this is just one more
step towards that goal," said Heintz.

Five-year-old Tyler Moss tries his best to swing the hammer to make the bell ring
on a game during the annual Month of the Military Child Carnival on April 16.


By Kaylee LaRocque
NAS lax Deputy PAO


Laughter and excite-
ment filled the air as
hundreds of kids and
their parents came out to
enjoy the annual Month
of the Military Child
Carnival Saturday at
the Allegheny Softball
Fields. The free event is
put on each year by the
NAS Jax Morale, Welfare
and Recreation (MWR)
Department's Youth
Activities Center (YAC)
to show military chil-
dren how much they are
appreciated.
"We're here today to
celebrate the military
children who sacrifice
so much and many times
go unnoticed. This is our
way of saying 'thank-you'
and to slow we appre-
ciate them," said YAC
Director Aaron Long.
The event featured
numerous inflatables
that provided lots of
jumping, sliding and
bouncing, a rock climb-
ing wall, jousting, games,
face painting by the staff
of the Fleet and Family
Support Center, free pop-
corn and cotton candy.
"We've changed things
up a little bit from the last
carnival. We like to bring
in new ideas and attrac-
tions to keep the kids
entertained," continued
Long.
Long also commend-
ed those who assisted to
bring the event together
by setting up, manning
the booths and games
and would help with the
clean up. "The support
from MWR and Child
Youth Programs along
with the active duty
members who volun-
teered here today really
pulled this event togeth-
er. They have been just
phenomenal," Long said.

came out today to help
out. It's fun to watch
the kids come out and
enjoy themselves," said
AWOC(NAC/AW) Jeremy
McAfree ofVP-30.
The weather held
steady and contributed
a hefty amount of sun-
shine for the event as the
families spent some time
trying out the different
activities available.
"I came out here
today to spend time
with my family and
enjoy some of the free

services offered to mili-
tary families. It's defi-
nitely a good event and
with today's gas prices we
can do something close


to home," said Ensign
Jeremy Meyer of Fleet
Industrial Supply Center
Jax, who stopped by the
carnival with his wife
and two children.
"We came because my
kids always have a blast
at these carnivals. They
love all the activities,"
added Tesha Lyn, who
brought her two children,
Brandon and Kayla.
This year's spon-
sors for the event were

Jacksonville Suns.

domestic violence prevention

By Kaylee LaRocque -
Staff Writer r lU1"


The NAS Jacksonville com-
munity kicked off National
Sexual Assault Awareness
Month with a special presenta-
tion at the base chapel April 11.
Participants were welcomed by
NAS Jax Executive Officer Capt.
Bob Sanders.
"We are here today because
this topic is vital to readiness
and it's important to recognize
situations that could lead to
abuse issues before they occur.
This seminar is designed to
make you more aware of being
involved and educated about
sexual assault and domestic
violence," said Sanders.
He introduced the guest
speaker, Al Emerick, founder of
Men Against Violence Against
Women.
"The number one goal why
we're here today is to raise
your awareness that maybe
this issue is relative to you,"
said Emerick, who started the
educational outreach program
when he worked at Hubbard
House, a safe haven for

domestic violence victims in
Jacksonville.
"Domestic and sexual vio-
lence can affect anyone men,
women and children. The
stories you read in the media
about people being attacked
and abused are someone's
friend, neighbor or fam-
ily member. Today, one out
of every four women in some
point in their life will be a vic-


tim of domestic or sexual vio-
lence," stated Emerick.
He went on to explain that
domestic violence and abuse
include physical, mental, ver-
bal, sexual, economic and
emotional abuse. He also pre-
sented some facts about abus-
ers.
"It's a control issue. If the
abuser takes enough away from
a person, limits access to that


person; then they will have
enough control to make that
person do what they want them
to do," he said.
"People like power and want
to be in control of their lives,
unfortunately, sometimes it's
too much and they try to con-
trol the people in their lives."
"If you care about someone
who is abusing another per-
son, you need to realize that
the person is a walking liabil-
ity and is committing a crime,"
continued Emerick.
"We wouldn't allow our
friends to steal or commit some
other crime, but many times, if
we witness abusive situations,


we tend to not say anything
because it's not our business.
But a real friend would step up
and get involved. My challenge
to you is to just watch and look
for the signs and make a differ-
ence."
Emerick closed his brief by
daring the men in the audi-

FRCSE establishes prototype Super Hornet maintenance site


By Marsha Childs
Fleet Readiness Center Soutiheasr Public Affairs

Fleet Readiness Center Southeast
(FRCSE) established a Planned
Maintenance Interval (PMI) overflow
site in Jacksonville for the F/A-18 Super
Hornet and delivered the first proto-
typed aircraft to a strike fighter training
squadron in Virginia April 4.
The first Super Hornet arrived at
Cecil Commerce Center Dec. 8, 2010
to undergo planned maintenance and
minor repairs in a modified mainte-
nance hangar designated to handle
excess maintenance workload for Naval
Air Station Oceana, Va.
"This was the first aircraft to go
through the prototyping process," said
John Bandor, the F/A-18E/F Integrated
Maintenance Concept (IMC) program
manager.
"The first always takes longer due to
the learning curve, setup and defin-
ing processes. We need to ensure we're
effective first, then efficient. Once the
capability is fully established and the
processes defined, we will be at a fixed
price. The PMI goal is 53 calendar days."
Bandor praised Todd Ingold, the IMC
coordinator for Commander, Strike
Fighter Wing Atlantic, for his efforts to

Jacksonville boasts the only fly-in/
fly-out program on the east coast. The
additional PMI site expands main-
tenance capability at a time when
large numbers of Super Hornets near
required six-year inspections and main-
tenance.
"We are working on four prototypes
in fiscal year 2011," Bandor said.
"Our goal is to complete PMI on 16
aircraft each year, an average of four per
quarter."
Bandor credits this significant mile-
stone to all the FRCSE employees who
had a hand in producing the first pro-
totype.
"This is a total team effort by the
flight test crew, evaluators, wrench-
turning artisans, rework planners,
on-site engineers, machinists, quality
assurance personnel and numerous
others who provided production sup-
port functions," said Bandor.
"They can all be very proud of what
they've accomplished."

From Navy
Exchange Command

Navy Exchanges (NEX)
worldwide have a new
plastic bag it will begin
using for customer pur-
chases.
The new plastic bag
is made with at least 35
percent recycled mate-
rial. Unlike the previous
NEX plastic bags which
were white, the new
recycled bags have a grey
body color based upon
the high level of recycled
material used in its pro-
duction.
"The new plastic bags
are made by Hilex and is
made in rtie U.S.A. with
at least 35 percent recy-
cled material," said Mike
Powers, Navy Exchange
Service Command's
(NEXCOM) retail direc-
tor.
"So, if customers
choose to use plastic bags
rather than recyclable
bags, they can feel com-
fortable knowing they are
still helping the environ-
ment."
For those customers
who prefer to use a reus-
able bag, NEXs give a
five-cent credit for each
eco-friendly reusable bag
used to bag a customer's
purchase.
Customers may either
bring their reusable bag
into the store or purchase
a reusable bag from the
NEX.

Don't put off colon




cancer screening


By Capt. Joseph McQuade, M.D.
Naval Hospital lax Public Health Director

Screening patients for cancer is an
idea that continues to gather momen-
tum in our country.
President Richard
Nixon actually
launched the idea of a
war against cancer in
1969. We haven't won
the war yet, but we
continue to find strat-
egies that seem to help
find cancers earlier.
Nipping cancers in
the bud is always the
best game plan.
Q: How can I best
prevent getting colon
cancer?
Colorectal cancer
is the second leading
cause of cancer-relat- F
ed deaths among men .,
and women in the
United States. Only
lung cancer kills more Capt. Joseph I
SAmericans each year.
In 2005, the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention estimated that
more than 141,000 people were diag-
nosed with colorectal cancer, and
53,000 people died from it.
Charles Schultz, the famous cartoon-
ist creator of Charlie Brown never got
screened for colon cancer despite hav-
ing a Dad who died of the disease.
Your first colonoscopy should
be scheduled at age 50 for white and
Hispanic patients, and age 45 for
African-American patients.
Caught early, colorectal cancer can be
cured.
Screening rates for colorectal can-


McQuad


Ask Dr. Joe

cer are rising among
adults age 50.
In 1997 approxi-
mately 25 percent
of adults in this age
group were screened
for colorectal cancer
with the rate rising to
55 percent in 2008 for
most Americans.
Naval Hospital
Jacksonville record-
ed 72.5 percent of
its enrolled patients
age 50 and older
were screened as of
December 2009.
Some cancer experts
equate not getting a
colonoscopy after age
50 is much like not
getting a mammo-
le, M.D. gram as recommend-


ed.
Colon cancer kills more people than
breast cancer, and many more people
than cervical cancer yet how often is
colon cancer screening discussed with
you by your provider at your routine
visits?
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention challenge physicians to
find the time and resources to educate
patients about the options for colorectal
cancer screening methods and issue
patient reminders to ensure it is not for-
gotten at routine visits.
Ask your healthcare provider about
colorectal screening at your next
appointment.

Adm. Alexander, CNRSE celebrate volunteers


By MCC Monica Nelson
Region Southeast Public Affairs


A proclamation signed by Comman-
der, Navy Region Southeast (CNRSE)
Rear Adm. Tim Alexander, made April
10-16 not only National Volunteer
Week, but also Navy Volunteer Week.
The proclamation encouraged all com-
mands to partner with the local Navy
Community Service Program (NCSP),
look outward, and serve their local
communities.
"Through volunteer work, Americans
can demonstrate the kindness and gen-
erosity that make our nation great," said
Alexander, who affirmed the Navy's
commitment to building a culture of
service, citizenship, and responsibility.
"Mentoring a child, teaching someone
to read, visiting the elderly, feeding the
hungry, and building shelter for fami-
lies are all examples of how Americans
can and do aid those in need."
The Navy's Community Service
Program exists to help build stronger
communities and develop mission-
ready personnel through outreach
activities. It offers commands the
opportunity to make a major, positive,
long-term impact on the development of
America's youth and the quality of life
for residents and personnel that live in
the area.

Region set up volunteer activities under

"This is a major quality of life
improvement never again will ath-
letic contests at Sea King Field be called
on account of darkness," said NAS Jax
Commanding Officer Capt. Jeffrey
Maclay.
"The sun will no longer drive game
scheduling for this multi-purpose ath-
letic field."
Maclay joined NAS Jax Morale,
Welfare and Recreation (MWR)
Department, and NAVFAC Southeast
Public Works Department (PWD) per-
sonnel April 15 to cut the ribbon signi-
fying the on-time, on-budget comple-
tion of the $550,000 sports lighting sys-
tem and parking improvements.
MWR Athletics Director Tim
McKinney said, "This is a long-antic-
ipated project that benefits our base
intramural sports programs, as well as
Sailors participating in early morning
physical training. It eliminates time
constraints associated with scheduling
football, soccer, ultimate Frisbee and
other sports before sundown."
Six poles of energy efficient sport
lights now occupy the east and west
sides of the multi-purpose athletic field.
The project also included lighting and
resurfacing (no more giant potholes) of
the parking area.
"Now we have a concrete curb sur-
rounding a layer of permeable gravel,
so players and spectators will find their
visit to Sea King Park much more enjoy-
able," explained McKinney.
This sports lighting system, installed
by Power Solutions Electric Inc., of


Jacksonville, includes system monitor-
ing with remote on/off control that's
designed to minimize operating costs.
MWR Sports Coordinator Bill Bonser
said, "This lighting system is awesome
-just like daylight, but without all the
heat. Previously, our leagues were lim-
ited in the number of games they could
play because the sun dictated our avail-
able time. Now we can start games a
little later, when it's not so hot. And if
games go into overtime, our new light-
ing allows them to play to completion."
The field accommodates either one
soccer game or two football games at
one time. The new lighting and parking
will also make weekend tournaments
more convenient for players and specta-
tors.
