Starting the New Year right means starting S.M.A.R.T

GROTON, Conn. - Wellness coach Mary Zeppier, (center), of Naval Submarine Base New Londons (SUBASE) Morale, Welfare, and
Recreation Department (MWR), demonstrates the Superman, one of the many exercises performed in the Friday afternoon Fit
4 Five, class at the bases Body Works Fitness Center, Jan. 9. The Fit 4 Five, class incorporates interval workouts of both
strength training and cardio.

every single day is unrealistic, said Zeppier. You


may be fine for the first
week, but once your first
hurrah is over and you
begin to miss a few days,
you become discouraged
and thats when most people give up.
The
R
of
a
S.M.A.R.T. goal stands
for relevant and Zeppier
emphasizes that relevancy helps ensure the goal
is worth the effort and
important enough to fuel
ones resolve.
Finally, a S.M.A.R.T.
goal must be time-managed helping the goal-setter find the necessary
time in a daily schedule to
make progress.
With
S.M.A.R.T.
goals established, Navy
Team New London members will find a wealth

of MWR fitness program


opportunities designed
for individuals to develop healthy lifestyles and
achieve their goals.
Participants requiring
motivation and direction
can join one of several fitness classes developed to
meet preferences or needs.
Prospective body builders
can try out Bells and
Bars, a class combining
kettle bells and body bars
for an overall strengthening workout. Swimmers
may enjoy Aquasize, a
water aerobics class at the
SUBASE swimming pool.
MWR Lead Fitness
Specialist Angi Webb
highlights that there is
even a SUBASE fitness
program designed with
families in mind. Family
Fitness includes fun and
activity for the whole fam-

ily to enjoy.
We like to support
SUBASE Sailors and their
families the best we can in
helping them attain their
goals, said Webb. The
classes make working out
a fun experience no matter what level of fitness or
age group participants are
in and it gives families a
chance to experience the
joy of becoming fit together.
Family Fitness, classes are held at Morton
Hall Gymnasium each
Saturday.
Of course, a workout
buddy can be just as
encouraging as a family
and can also help an individual be more open to
new exercises or fitness
programs.
Finding a buddy to
exercise with is a great

motivator, said Fire


Control Technician (FT2)
Ryan Bramich, who
works out at Morton
Hall with his friend Keith
Smith, a civilian contractor assigned to Submarine
Development Squadron
(DEVRON) 12. There
are so many opportunities
available here that there
is just no excuse not to
go out and make use of
them.
A much anticipated
MWR fitness opportunity is its Biggest Loser
Contest, a nine week
weight loss challenge
to encourage lifelong
healthy exercise and
nutrition habits. Along
with weekly weigh-ins
throughout the contest,
weekly nutrition classes
are also offered.

NEWSPAPERS

GROTON, Conn. By mid-January many


New Year resolutions
have gone by the wayside because they were
not S.M.A.R.T goals
according
to
Naval
Submarine Base New
London (SUBASE) wellness experts.
Changing ones behavior and lifestyle is never
an easy task, but remembering the simple acronym, S.M.A.R.T., when
setting these behavioral goals may just help,
said SUBASE Morale,
Recreation and Welfare
(MWR) certified wellness
coach Mary Zeppier.
Zeppier explains that
first element in establishing a S.M.A.R.T. goal
is to be specific. Saying
one wants to lose weight
and eat right is not as
specific as clearly stating
a desire to lose 10 pounds
or include a vegetable in
every meal.
Specificity often helps
with second S.M.A.R.T.
goal element; the goal
has to be measurable.
Seeking to lose 10 pounds
or include a vegetable in
every meal is very measurable and allows for
easy tracking of ones
progress.
But its the third element of a S.M.A.R.T.
goal is where most people
have problems according
to Zeppier. The goal has
to be attainable.

DoD Releases 2015 Military Pay and Compensation Rates


DoD News
Defense Media Activity

WASHINGTON - The
Department of Defense
(DoD) announced the
2015 military pay and
compensation rates for
service members, with
most service members
receiving a one percent
increase in basic pay,
Dec. 22.
The new rates for basic
pay, basic allowance for
housing, basic allowance
for subsistence, and the
cost of living allowance
rates for the contiguous

United States took effect


Jan. 1, 2015.
Basic pay for service
members will increase
one percent, except for
general and flag officers who will not see
an increase in 2015.
For example, an E-4
with 3 years of service
will see an increase in
basic pay of $22.20 per
month, while an O-3
with 6 years of service
will receive a basic pay
increase of $54.30 per
month in 2015.
Basic allowance for
housing rates for service members in 2015

will increase on average


$17 per month, or 0.5
percent. Rates are calculated using median
current market rent and
average utilities (including electricity, heat, and
water/sewer) for each
pay grade, both with and
without dependents. Two
changes were made to
BAH rate computations
for 2015: renters insurance, which contributed
an average of one percent
to rates, was eliminated, and the Fiscal Year
2015 National Defense
Authorization
Act
reduced housing rates on

New Virginia-class attack sub named


By Department of Defense

WASHINGTON, DC
- Secretary of the Navy
Ray Mabus announced
Jan. 9, that SSN 795,
a Virginia-class attack
submarine, will bear the
name USS Hyman G.
Rickover.
Mabus named the
submarine to honor U.S.
Navy Admiral Hyman
G. Rickover, the man
credited for developing
USS Nautilus (SSN 571),
the worlds first operational nuclear-powered
submarine.
Virginia-class submarines provide the Navy

with the capabilities


required to maintain
the nations undersea supremacy well
into the 21st century.
They have enhanced
stealth, sophisticated
surveillance capabilities, and special warfare enhancements that
enable them to meet the
Navys multi-mission
requirements.
Virginia-class submarines have the capability
to attack targets ashore
with highly accurate
Tomahawk cruise missiles and conduct covert
long-term surveillance
of land areas, littoral
waters or other sea-

based forces. Other missions include anti-submarine and anti-ship


warfare; mine delivery
and minefield mapping.
They are also designed
for special-forces delivery and support.
Each Virginia-class
submarine is 7,800 tons
and 377 feet in length,
has a beam of 34 feet,
and can operate at more
than 25 knots submerged. It is designed
with a reactor plant that
will not require refueling during the planned
life of the ship, reducing lifecycle costs while
increasing underway
time.

average one percent for


service members.
However, individual
rate protection for service members remains
an integral part of the
BAH program. This
means that even if BAH
rates decline including
through the elimination
of renters insurance
and the reduction in the
calculated rate a service
member who maintains
uninterrupted BAH eligibility in a given location will not see a rate
decrease. This ensures
that service members
who have made longterm commitments in the
form of a lease or contract are not penalized
if local housing costs
decrease.
Service members can
calculate their BAH payment by using the basic
allowance for housing
calculator at: http://
www.defensetravel.dod.
mil/site/bahCalc.cfm.
The 2015 basic allowance for subsistence rates
for military members
will increase by 2.9 percent over last year. The
new rates are:
$367.92 per month for
enlisted members
$253.38 per month for
officers
The annual adjustments to basic allowance for subsistence
- a monthly nontaxable
cash payment to military

members intended to
be used to buy food are linked to changes in
food prices as measured
by the annual change in
the U.S. Department of
Agriculture Cost of Food
at Home Index. From
the beginning of October
2013 through the end
of September 2014, the
index rose by 2.9 percent,
forming the basis for the
increased BAS rates.
The
Defense
Department also released
its 2015 contiguous
United States cost of
living allowance rates.
Roughly 12,000 members will see a decrease
in their CONUS COLA
payments, while some
7,000 members will see
an increase or no change,
and 4,000 members
will no longer receive a
CONUS COLA payment.
CONUS COLA is a taxable supplemental allowance designed to help
offset higher prices in
high-cost locations, and
rates vary based on location, pay grade, years of
service and dependent
status. Rates can increase
or decrease depending
on the prices in a specific
duty location compared
to prices in an average
CONUS location. Service
members can calculate
their CONUS COLA rate

GROTON,
Conn.
School and youth program coordinators from
Naval Submarine Base
New London (SUBASE),
Southeastern Connecticut,
and neighboring Rhode
Island
are encouraging
adults this New Year to
become involved in a young
persons life by volunteering
some time to be a mentor.
January 2015 is the 14th
annual National Mentoring
Month.
Its a great time to think
about young people in our
community who could
benefit from a relationship
with a caring adult, said
Debbie Scheinblum of the
Ocean Community YMCA
in Westerly, R.I. Mentoring
is not just a feel-good strategy. It has proven results for
both the children and adults
who care enough to make
the commitment of just one

hour a week. We know


young people who have
a mentor are more likely
to stay in school, get good
grades, and avoid alcohol
and drugs.
Mentoring not only benefits the child but also the
mentor as well.
A mentor is more likely to increase his or her
appreciation for diversity,
feel more productive at
work, develop core leadership skills, and communication skills, and feel good
for having positively influenced another life, said
Scheinblum .
For Navy Team New
London adults interested
in mentoring opportunities closer to the base, the
SUBASE School Liaison,
Miranda Chapman, can
help link interested mentor volunteers with local
schools that have a need.
There is a great need
for mentors throughout
New London County, said

I am often told that there are more


students on the waiting list than
mentors available.

Miranda Chapman
SUBASE School Liaison

Chapman. I am often told


that there are more students
on the waiting list than
mentors available.
The
commitment is generally an
hour a week and it occurs at
the school during the school
day.
For SUBASE community
service minded volunteers
who are wary of a mentoring commitment but still
may desire to help make
a difference in the lives of
local youth, the SUBASE
Public Affairs Office coordinates community service
opportunities with schools
and youth programs yearlong.
The Sailors and civilians
of Navy Team New London
are committed volunteers,
said Mass Communication

Specialist
2nd
Class
Kristina Young, SUBASE
Community
Service
Volunteer
Coordinator.
Each year our Navy volunteers contribute hundreds of
hours serving southeastern
Connecticut communities,
and theyve enjoyed supporting all kinds of school
and youth interaction
opportunities - from science
fairs to athletic field days.

mentoring or community service opportunities,

E-Prescribing coming to military pharmacies


The Military Health
System has deployed electronic prescribing in military pharmacies across its
system of clinics and hospitals in the United States
(and in Guam and Puerto
Rico). This capability will
allow civilian providers to
send prescriptions electronically to military pharmacies, reducing the need for
handwritten prescriptions.
E-prescribing is a great

new service at military


pharmacies, said Dr.
George Jones, chief of the
Defense Health Agency
Pharmacy
Operation
Division. E-prescribing
makes military pharmacies a more attractive and
convenient option for doctors and patients, and it
aligns the Military Health
System with current best
pharmacy practices.
E-prescribing is a safe

and efficient option already


adopted by most civilian
pharmacies and providers.
It can help reduce prescription errors and has the
potential to decrease wait
times at military pharmacies. When a prescription
comes into a pharmacy
electronically, it allows the
pharmacist to resolve issues
before the patient arrives.
Beneficiaries can ask
their doctor to look for

their local military pharmacies in the e-prescribing database/networks.


Military hospitals and
clinics will not be able
to accept electronic prescriptions for controlled
substances. Beneficiaries
will still need a hand written prescription for these
medications. To learn
more about Tricares pharmacy benefits, visitwww.

NBHC Groton leads way in battling obesity in 2015


Lt. Cmdr. Michael K. Sracic,
MD, MS

GROTON, Conn. - The


holidays are a great time
to enjoy time with friends
and family, sharing stories and accomplishments
from the past year as
well as setting goals for
the year about to begin.
January tends to be a busy
month in gyms around
the country as one of the
most popular New Years
Resolutions in America
often sounds something
like, This is the year Im
going to get in shape!
If this is the year for
you and it should be,
for all of us, as America
continues to struggle with
preventable
diseases
tied heavily to being too
heavy, why not start to get
focused now? Its never
too late to get in shape,
and with proper planning and the right help,
you can make your New
Years Resolution to lose
weight a reality for 2015,
but even more importantly, a reality for the rest of
your life. Fitness is not a
journey with a definitive
endpoint its not a race
with a finish line or competition with a clock ticking down to zero. Fitness
is a lifestyle choice that
requires a strong level
of commitment and personal investment, but the
returns on that investment
are astronomical when it
comes to individual and
family health, as well as

the readiness of our armed


forces to bring the fight to
the enemy in any environment on earth.
Over seventy years ago
on December 16, 1944, the
Battle of the Bulge began,
and it eventually ended in
a decisive victory for the
Allies in the worlds fight
against tyranny. Today,
generations later, we need
another decisive victory in
our own battle of the bulge
at our waistlines, and
the Naval Branch Health
Clinic (NBHC) Groton is
proud to be in the fight.
Sailors like Hospitalman
Patrick Schill, who graduated high school four
years ago at a body weight
of 340 pounds, are leading
by example as we combat
preventable illness tied to
obesity. After high school,
Schill knew he wanted to
serve his country, and to
do it, he needed to lose
weight. Over the course
of one year, with healthy
dietary changes and exercise, he lost 120 pounds
and has kept it off. HN
Schill successfully fulfilled
his dream of joining the
Navy, and he has served
his country proudly, both
at home and forward
deployed to Afghanistan.
Still weighing in at lean
220 pounds, he just completed his fall PRT with an
impressive 1.5 mile run
time of 8:52.
Civilians like Tom
Scagliarini, who lost thirty pounds after suffering a heart attack while
at work in the clinic on
Feb. 26, 2014 are sim-

ilarly enthusiastic about


lifestyle changes and
development of a true culture of health in the community. When Tom collapsed from a heart attack
in the clinic less than a
year ago, he weighed 210
pounds. He now weighs
180 pounds and referees
high school and adult soccer games while maintaining a vigorous workout
routine including endurance and strength training. Working out during
his lunch hour on a daily
basis and maintaining the
dietary alterations that led
to his success, Tom is a
remarkable example of
someone who has battled
back from what seemed
like insurmountable odds
only to exceed every possible expectation in spearheading his own success
in fitness.
Lieutenant Jeff Miles,
the department head for
surgical services, and his
wife, Michelle, the clinic manager for the NBHC
Medical
Home
Port,
have each lost over forty
pounds as a married team
through dietary modifications and increased understanding of nutrition. Each
of them have seen impressive improvements with
issues like back pain, knee
pain, and concerns for
development of diabetes
all because they chose
to make lifestyle changes
to lose weight and keep
it off.
Maxine Pearcy, a health
system specialist who has
struggled with her weight

her entire life, initially lost


26 pounds early in 2014
with the SUBASE Biggest
Loser challenge, only to
regain the weight after the
program ended. In July
2014 during what she
describes as her defining moment, she looked
at a picture of herself
and decided enough was
enough. With the support of some co-workers
at the clinic, she started
a new program, and this
time, she has been able
to maintain her success.
Maxine has lost a total
of 75 pounds, decreasing
in dress size from a 24 to
a 14, and she isnt done
yet. She is feeling great
about herself and when
it comes to losing weight,
she says, Dont give up.
Do it for you, because you
are worth it.
There are many diet and
training options available,
and many sources of both
good and bad information
regarding fitness. As you
approach 2015 and a goal
of getting in shape, make
the committed investment
that it takes to see real,
sustainable results, and
make sure that you get
the right information from
the right people. A good
place to start is the Health
Promotions department
at the base health clinic, (860) 694-1471. The
NBHC staff is proud to be
in the fight against obesity, and when it comes to
your fitness goals for the
New Year, we are ready
to help.

Long-running host of Military Neighbors Show passes the baton


By MC1(SW/AW) Bill Larned

GROTON, Conn. Barbara Ross, director of


the Naval Submarine Base
New London (SUBASE)
Fleet and Family Support
Center (FFSC), but more
widely known as host
of the local cable-television show Military
Neighbors, will officially
pass the baton today, Jan.
15, as her last taped episode hosting the program
airs.
Ross who led the show
through 125 episodes
since its debut in 1997
will be turning over hosting duties to the FFSCs
April Holtmeyer.
Military Neighbors, is
aimed at helping military
members, their families,
and their neighbors keep
abreast of issues impacting the local military and
community.
Filmed in a studio

at the Groton Public


Library, the half-hour
show appears on channel
2 both in the Comcast
and Thames Valley cable
networks.
As a mother and former military spouse, Ross
explored many themes
taken from direct experience.
I wanted Military
Neighbors to be a practical show which people could watch and put
information they gleaned
to use right away, Ross
said. My goal was for
someone to watch and
say, hey, I can try this
in my own life situation.
Research is fine, but the
real success of the program comes from having your finger on the
pulse of whats happening and important to military families. Its better
to have a conversation
with people, rather than
talking at them.

Many topics followed


the growth of Ross
daughter and her concerns as a parent.
Looking back, one
dominating theme for
many shows, as I started
my own military family, was the issues that
parents face in raising
healthy and confident
kids, Ross said. We
explored pregnancy; toy
safety; study skills; kids
and money; kids and
stress; success in school;
parenting adolescents;
and, parenting teens.
The unique aspects of
submarine duty and a
tight-knit military community provided additional key subject matter.
A
second
theme
throughout the years has
been discussing topics
which would help military couples and families
survive and thrive in our
submarine community,
said Ross. Every family
has stressors, but stressors in a military family
are framed within long
deployments and separation and frequent relocations that move us away
from the support of our
extended families.
As the show evolved,
Ross came to realize that
viewership crossed the
fenceline, and themes
and information not only
benefitted military members and families, but
also the larger local community.
Revising an old the
adage from good fences
make good neighbors,
to good neighbors make
good neighbors, Ross
began developing topics and interviews that
provided practical, do it
now tips to all families
to which the show was
broadcasted,
whether
civilian or military.
It was a way to highlight the sameness
between military families
and civilian families and
not the differences. We
are all part of the same
community and I want-

GROTON, Conn. - Barbara Ross, director of the Naval Submarine Base New London (SUBASE) Fleet
and Family Support Center (FFSC), but more widely known as host of the local cable-television show
Military Neighbors, right, speaks with shows new host, April Holtmeyer, left, Dec. 12 at the Groton
Public Library studio where the program is taped. Ross final episode as host airs today, Jan. 15, on
channel 2 of both the Comcast and Thames Valley cable networks. Ross hosted the show through
125 episodes since its debut in 1997. Military Neighbors, is aimed at helping military members,
their families, and their neighbors keep abreast of issues impacting the local military and community.

ed Military Neighbors to
reflect that, Ross said.
April Holtmeyer, who
will be taking the reins
from Ross, is also a military spouse with children.
Holtmeyer will juggle
hosting duties with her
role as the SUBASE FFSC
educational services facilitator. She also serves
as the FFSC liaison and
coordinator with Navy
New London ombudsmen and Fleet Readiness
Group (FRG) leaders.
Holtmeyer feels her
background and her many
roles as well as her experience with social media
make her the right candidate to host the show.
When Barbara was
looking for someone new
to take over the show,
she asked for volunteers
to prepare an audition
for a Military Neighbors
episode, Holtmeyer said.
My idea was to stage
an interview with a FFSC
social media subject matter expert and to discuss
how families can use
Facebook as a healthy
resource.

Now the Holtmeyer is


the show host, her social
media idea will be one of
her first episodes.
Id like to use the
[Facebook as a healthy
resource] idea for an
actual episode. Id also
like to link archives of
past Military Neighbors
episodes to the FFSC
Facebook page, where
people post questions
about particular topics,
said Holtmeyer. In addition, I feel that service
members are often so
busy, theyre not even
aware of the services
FFSC has available for
them. I feel there are
ways on the show we can
address this.
Ross is delighted that
Holtmeyer will be the
caretaker for the show
Ross calls her baby,
and is confident the
Holtmeyer will continue
to nurture and advance it.
April is the right person to host Military
Neighbors, said Ross.
Shes connected to leadership both on the base as
well as on the waterfront.

She works with ombudsmen and has finger on


the pulse of things. If a
hot topic emerges, shell
know about it right away.
Its important for a fresh
person to take over the
show now, with new
ideas. As Im now the
director of FFSC, Im less
involved with the day-today operations of SUBASE
and more involved with
management. This transition will re-energize
and capture the attention
of a new generation of
Sailors and their families.
Aprils personality, sense
of humor and passion
for military families will
guide her.
Holtmeyers
first
episode of Military
Neighbors will appear
in early February on
channel two both for the
Comcast and Thames
Valley cable networks.

Winter is here: Are you and your vehicle ready?


By EM3 Jan Scott Oviso

GROTON, Conn. Although the 2014-2015


winter season has been
moderate so far, the
Naval Submarine Base
New London (SUBASE)
Safety Department is
urging all base Sailors,
civilians, families, and
patrons to ensure that
they and their vehicles
are safe and ready for
the severity of winter
weather.
Winter safety can start
with clothing. During
the winter months, its
a given that one should
wear warm layers, however, proper footwear
is just as important,
note Tyler Hancock and
Andrew Mozingo, safety
specialists in the SUBASE
Safety Department.
We usually have two
or three incidents every
year of people slipping
or tripping on ice, said
Hancock.
What will happen is
that when we have snow,
occasionally itll cover a
patch of ice, and people GROTON, Conn. - Cars are covered in snow during a snow storm at Naval Submarine Base New London (SUBASE), Jan. 9. Its against
will slip on it thinking state law to drive with snow on your vehicle, and the authorities are slowly starting to ticket people for it, said SUBASE Safety Manager,
its just soft snow, said Edgar Martinez. You need to make sure your car is clear of snow before driving, otherwise it may cause a safety hazard for you or other drivers.
Mozingo. I know a lot
of people still want to
be fashionable and wear
sneakers or high heels,
but I suggest that they
wear boots or hard soled
shoes to prevent slipping
and falling.
A vehicle can slip in
icy and snowy conditions as well. Ensuring
ones car is ready and
equipped for severe
weather should be every
drivers priority in winter, urges Monzigo.
Items to have in
your car for the winter should include your
cell phone, flashlights,
flares or reflectors, sand
or kitty litter (for traction), an ice scraper and
a shovel, said Mozingo.
Stores sell helpful winter kits which include all
of these items. Of course
its also a good idea to
have blankets and extra
clothes, as well as food
and water. Even if its
cold outside, dehydration is a big problem, so
you want to stay hydrated as much as possible.

Specialist, Andrew Mozingo. This year hasnt been too bad so far, and hopefully itll stay that way.

GROTON, Conn. - Right, a few pedestrians walk on


the cleared sidewalks of Naval Submarine Base
New Londons (SUBASE) Dealey Plaza following
a winter storm, Jan. 9.Even with the sidewalks
cleared, the SUBASE Safety Department advises
all base personnel and patrons to take caution
during cold winter days to prevent slipping on
ice. We usually have about 2-3 incidents every
year of people slipping or tripping on the ice,
said SUBASE Safety Specialist, Tyler Hancock.

GROTON, Conn. - Snow plows of Naval Submarine Base New Londons (SUBASE) Public Works Department stand ready for roadwork, Jan. 10. The SUBASE Safety Department advises that even with roads cleared by
snow plows, drivers should still take extra caution during the winter months. The biggest thing about driving snow is to slow down, or wait it out if possible, said SUBASE Safety Specialist, Andrew Mozingo.

Winter and your car ...


Continued from page 6

GROTON, Conn. - Above, the bay doors of the Naval Submarine Base New Londons (SUBASE) Auto Hobby Shop remain closed to allow
Sailors to work on their cars, regardless of outside weather conditions.We provide a facility where you can work on your car out of
the rain and cold, said Machinists Mate 2nd Class Steven Collier, assigned to the Auto Hobby Shop. We provide tools, equipment,
and car lifts for people to use. From screw drivers to tire balancers, we should be able to help. The Auto Hobby Shop charges $3 per
hour for use of a bay with a lift, and $2 per hour for a bay without a car lift. Below, several Sailors assigned to Naval Submarine Base
New London (SUBASE) work on their vehicles at the bases Auto Hobby Shop following a winter storm, Jan. 10. Its a do-it-yourself
kind of deal, said Machinists Mate 2nd Class Steven Collier, assigned to the Auto Hobby Shop. Ive seen people replace their entire
brake systems or even take engines and transmissions out of their cars. But in the winter time, you really have to be careful to watch
out for basic things which affect you on local roads. The Auto Hobby Shop is located at Building 460, near the Racquetball Center and
Gate 5, and is open from 10 a.m.to 8 p.m. Wednesday through Friday, and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday and Sunday.

GROTON, Conn. - Above, alongside some shovels and bags of rock salt, a snow blower awaits purchase,
at the Naval Submarine Base New Londons (SUBASE) Navy Exchange (NEX).When shoveling snow,
the SUBASE Safety Department advises knowing ones physical limitations and perhaps performing
some warm-up exercises. Taking rest breaks, pushing rather than lifting when possible, and avoiding
twisting and bending are also all recommended.When using snow blowers, the Safety Department
cautions to watch out for loose clothing, be aware of projectiles, and never clear the exhaust chute
when the blower is running. Right, winter car products, including ice scrapers, windshield covers,
winter windshield fluid, and antifreeze, line the shelves at the Naval Submarine Base New Londons
(SUBASE) Navy Exchange (NEX). These are some of the items recommended for people to have in their
cars during the winter season. Its also a good idea to have blankets and extra clothes, as well as
food and water, said Andrew Mozingo, Safety Specialist from the SUBASE Safety Department.

Keeping
the
vehicle hydrated is just as
important,
highlights
Edgar Martinez, SUBASE
Safety Manager.
Its important to check
all of your car fluids, said
Martinez. People dont
seem to realize that when
they keep using the windshield fluid to clear the ice,
their tank will be empty.
Some fluids contain more
water than anything else,
which can freeze in the
cold temperatures, so its
important to keep your
vehicles fluid levels higher. Dont wait until you
have a quarter tank of
gasoline to fill up. When
it gets to half, just fill it up
again, especially now that
gas is really cheap.
While drivers can visit
local dealers or service
centers for vehicle inspections and maintenance, the
SUBASE Auto Hobby Shop
is a less expensive alternative for Sailors who are
more self-reliant when it
comes to auto maintenance.
Located at Building
460, near the Racquetball
Center and Gate 5, the
Auto Hobby Shop is
open from 10 a.m. to 8
p.m. Wednesday through
Friday, and 9 a.m. to 4
p.m. on weekends.
We provide a facility where you can work
on your car out of the
rain, snow and cold, said
Machinist Mate 2nd Class
Steven Collier, assigned to
the Auto Hobby Shop. We
provide tools, equipment,
and car lifts for people to
use, from screw drivers to
tire balancers, we should
be able to help.
Sailors can perform a
wide range of work on
their vehicles at the Auto
Hobby Shop. Patrons
sometimes replace their
entire brake systems,
said Collier. Ive also
seen
people
replace
engines and transmissions
for their cars.
One of the most com-

mon winter projects is


replacing or changing
tires.
Traction is a key to
driving in New England in
the winter, so youre going
to want to check your tires
and replace them when
you need to, said Collier.
However,
motorist
should not be over confident just because a vehicle
has new or winter tires,
or even four-wheel drive,
cautions Mozingo.
The biggest thing about
driving in the snow is to
slow down or wait it out
if possible, said Mozingo.
And, if you do end up in
a situation where youve
gone off the road, stay
with the vehicle. Nine
times out of ten, authorities find the vehicle before
they find the individual
whos wandered off from
their vehicle.
Finally, its also important to think of other drivers while on the road,
notes Martinez.
Its against state law to
drive with snow on your
vehicle, and authorities are
slowly starting to ticket people for it, said Martinez.
You need to make sure
your car is clear of snow
before driving.
With a little thought,
planning, and preparation, winter in New
England can be a safe
and enjoyable season,
so the SUBASE Safety
Department asks all base
Sailors, civilians, families,
and patrons a simple question: Are you and your
vehicle ready?
