the Navy as a CMDCM(SS)
in 1988.
Bud has been a continuous
member of SUBVETS since
1964 and is one of the lon-
gest active members of the
organization. He held the
position of Vice Commander
of SUBVETS Groton Base
from 2000 to 2007. Since

indicated that “there were a
total of six candidates that
we considered and it wasn’t
an easy choice because all
six of those members are
outstanding performers. But
Bud Atkins has always been
a mentor to others. He works
extremely hard in supporting

sidered for this award for
2010 were John Casey of
Groton; Jack Gallimore of
Ledyard; Mary Harrison of
Groton; Mike Munhall of

no losers in this group. Every
one of them is a winner, and
just to be considered for this
award is a prestigious honor.
These outstanding members
are part of the reason why
SUBVETS Groton Base lives
up to their motto of being
‘The First and Finest’.”
After receiving the award

ing the award was a big

Commodore presents
Battle “E” to USS Virginia
From Portsmouth Naval Shipyard
Public Affairs
PORTSMOUTH NAVAL
SHIPYARD, Maine - The
Commodore of Submarine
Squadron Four (SUBRON
Four), Captain Michael
Bernacchi, visited Portsmouth
Naval Shipyard (PNSY), Jan.
14 to present USS Virginia
(SSN 774) with the 2010
Battle Efficiency (Battle “E”)
award.
Each year, one submarine
from each squadron is rec-
ognized and the Battle “E”
is presented to the subma-
rine crew that demonstrated
the highest level of battle
readiness during the evalua-
tion year. For SUBRON Four,
that submarine is Virginia.
On Jan. 1, Commander,
Submarine Force Atlantic
(COMSUBLANT), announced
the winners of the Battle
“E” competition and Health
Readiness Unit awards.
“This award says that,
through everything, you are
the best ship in the squad-
ron,” said Capt. Bernacchi.
“The competition was incred-
ibly tight; there are a lot of
great ships, and a lot of great
ness, and to recognize out-
standing performance. The
criterion for the award is the
overall readiness of the com-
mand to carry out its assigned
wartime tasks as a unit of the
Atlantic Submarine Force,
and is based on a year-long
evaluation.
“This award caps a year
of very hard work,” said
Commander Tim Salter, com-
manding officer of Virginia.
“[We will] use this to say
‘job well done’ but also as
the motivation to continue to
do great work tomorrow and
into the future.”
Virginia also earned the
2010 Communication “C”
and Navigation “N” awards.
Virginia arrived at PNSY
Sept. 1, 2010 for the first-of-
its-class major maintenance

Tricare to extend coverage

By Tricare Management Activity
WASHINGTON - The Department of Defense (DoD) recently
announced the introduction of the premium-based Tricare Young
Adult Program (TYAP), which extends medical coverage to eli-
gible military family members to the age of 26. Expected to be
in place later this spring, TYAP implements the National Defense
Authorization Act (NDAA) of fiscal 2011. Premium costs for TYAP
are not yet finalized, but the NDAA specifies rates must cover the
full cost of the program.
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 required
civilian health plans to offer coverage to adult children until age
26. Tricare previously met or exceeded key tenets of national
health reform, including restrictions on annual limits, lifetime
maximums, “high user” cancellations, or denial of coverage for
pre-existing conditions – but did not include this expanded cover-
age for adult children. Dependent eligibility for Tricare previously
ended at age 21 or age 23 for full-time college students.
The fiscal 2011 NDAA now gives the DoD the authority to offer
similar benefits to young adults under Tricare.
“We’ve been working hard to make sure we could put Tricare
Young Adult on a fast track,” said Tricare Deputy Director, Rear.
Adm. Christine Hunter. “Fortunately for our beneficiaries con-
cerned about health care coverage for their adult children, the law
signed by the President includes opportunities for military fami-
lies to elect this new premium-based plan retroactive to Jan.1.”
Beginning later this spring, qualified, unmarried dependents up
to age 26 will be able to purchase Tricare coverage on a month-
to-month basis – as long as they are not eligible for their own
employer-sponsored health coverage.
See Tricare on Page 8
And let’s not forget our schools and young people. They
need mentors, role models, and volunteers willing to make a
difference for all of our futures.
Let’s try to expand our formalized School partnerships
beyond SUBASE’s relationship with the Catherine Kolnaski
Magnet School and Naval Submarine Support Facility’s recent
relationship with the Charles Barnum School.
Let’s elevate our informal School relationships with New
London High School and their NJROTC; Old Saybrook High
School and their International Submarine Races Team; the
Gales Ferry Juliet W. Long School and their Annual Aerospace
Family Festival; and, the Norwich John B. Stanton School and
their Student Council Program.
Sure, because of our strong community commitment, SUBASE
has received the Navy Region Mid-Atlantic Community Service
Award for the Project Good Neighbor flagship area the last two
years running, but let’s not sit on any laurels.
To learn more about formalized School partnerships, con-
tact the SUBASE School Liaison, Miranda Chapman, at (860)
694-3772. To learn more about Naval Submarine Base New
London’s Community Service opportunities, contact Lena
Blanch at (860) 694-4779.
This past holiday, SUBASE received the latest in a long line
of gifts from our friends and neighbors in Connecticut. Let’s
pay it forward in 2011 and endeavor to continue involving our
Sailors, ourselves, and our community in a productive and
rewarding relationship.
As always, my reward has been to serve as a member of
Team New London. I could not be happier or more honored to
lead SUBASE. I look forward to working with all of you as we
meet our goals and more in 2011, and continue to strengthen
our “shore ties!”
Sail Safe!
CAPT Marc W. Denno
“Dale, since our days together on USS Florida, you have
always impressed me as an exemplary deckplate leader,”
said Breckenridge. “(You are) always out and about, get-
ting eyes on target, talking with the members of your team,
looking into the eyes of your most important customer - the
Sailors who take these ships to sea - and doing good by
them. You treat people with uncommon grace, courtesy,
dignity and respect, and have - as a result - developed a deep
bound of loyalty and commitment.”
Since August 2009, Green has led a team of 900 active
duty military, government civilians and private contractors
to achieve the highest standards in submarine repair, ord-
nance support, safety and continuous process improvement.
Under his leadership, the repair department accomplished
several first-time repairs, including waterborne repairs of
Virginia-class retractable bow planes, secondary propulsion
units and waterborne replacement of thin line towed-array
motors.
“Though short, this has been an outstanding command
tour,” said Green.” Turning to his relief, Green continued,
“Capt. VanYe, you are getting 1.9 miles of prime waterfront
real estate, 24 buildings and about 900 of the best people the
Navy and her support team have to offer.”
VanYe, who assumed command of RSG last May, will retain
his existing duties and responsibilities as RSG Commander
in addition to assuming command of NSSF.
“The Groton maintenance organization has demonstrated
time and again that it knows how to succeed. Recognizing
that success, the submarine force is asking to lean on us a
little harder so that it can shift resources to areas in greater
need,” said VanYe. “We are being asked to be part of the
solution to more that just maintenance issues, but instead
the issues facing the entire force. It’s a complement to each
of the professionals here today representing each of the
waterfront’s maintenance units.”
Prior to taking command of NSSF, Green served as offi-
cer in charge of Pre-Commissioning Unit (PCU) Missouri.

valuable contributions that
SUBASE’s civilians make in
not only ensuring a harmoni-
ous team but also in provid-
ing a foundation of expertise.
“As military members, we
are the bridge for the civil-
ian workforce to our cus-
tomers on the waterfront,”
said Pennington. “The civil-
ian workforce is the corpo-
rate knowledge. Many have
been here for years and they
know what works and what
doesn’t.”
Getting to the heart of what
works and what doesn’t is
really about ensuring effec-
tive and efficient mission
accomplishment according
to Pennington and the new
XO feels that’s everyone’s
responsibility.
“I can’t fix what I don’t
know is broke,” pointed out
Pennington. “The guy who
usually finds the problem is
the low man on the totem
pole, if he doesn’t let his
boss know, it may never get
fixed.”
“I want everyone to know
my door is open,” concluded
Pennington.
At sea, Pennington has
served in USS Finback (SSN
670) and in USS Hartford (SSN
768). Ashore, he has served
as a Naval Reserve Officer
Training Center (NROTC)
instructor; an Assistant for
Plans at Commander, Allied
Naval Forces Submarines
South (COMSUBSOUTH) in
Naples, Italy; and as Operations
Officer for the S8G Prototype
of NPTU in Ballston Spa, New
York. Prior to assuming his
current duties, Pennington
was a founding member of
the Joint Forces Maritime
Component Commander,
Audit and Assessment Team
(JFMCC AAT) at the Naval
War College in Newport,
Rhode Island.
Raised in Ashland, Ore., Green enlisted in the Navy in 1978
as a submarine nuclear electronics technician. During his
Navy career, Green advanced to chief petty officer, earned
an associate degree from Columbia College and was selected
to the Enlisted Commissioning Program, through which
he earned a Bachelor of Arts in political science from the
University of Washington in Seattle. Green then received his
commission in 1990.
VanYe, born in Galveston, Texas, and raised in the San
Francisco Bay Area, graduated from Stanford University in
1987 with a degree in Industrial Engineering. Following
graduation, he attended the Navy Officer Candidate School
in Newport, R.I., and was commissioned as an Ensign in
February 1988. His sea tours include Commanding Officer
of USS Maryland (SSBN 738) (GOLD). Shore assignments
include tours on the staffs of Submarine Squadron Eight
and Nineteen, and U.S. Strategic Command Joint Functional
Component Command, Global Strike. Capt. VanYe holds a
Master’s Degree in National Security and Strategic Studies.

Navy Commander Alex Rode,
fifth grade teacher from Ledyard

putting on this festival for three
years now.”
Sailors were there to lend
a hand, but also to introduce
their command to the com-

“I was out in the surface Navy
for three years on USS Frank

One of the featured speak-

from the Aldrich Astronomical
Society, who spoke to students
about meteorites. Zebrowski
spoke about how meteorites hur-

chance to try a meteorite experi-

meteorites on the moon surface,
students dropped rocks into a
case filled with flour and a top
layer of Mocha powder.
“Now we’re not saying the

Zebrowski, “but the two con-

Rift Pre-Review
GROTON, Conn. – Recently, I was inducted into a beta testing
event for a new Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game
(MMORPG) slated to be released in March of this year. The beta
testing took place from Friday through Sunday, (although they
have held, four (I think) beta events before, that I wasn’t invited
to) so how I speak of the game is based on three days of gameplay
alone.
Anywhoozles. The game is called Rift. (It ‘was’ called, Rift:
Planes of Telara, but I think the makers (Trion Worlds) figured
out that their lore is less-than-iconic and more-than-forgettable,
and renamed it in good judgement). The gameplay however, is
awesome enough to make me addicted in such a way, that I was
physically having withdrawals from not being able to play it.
Speaking of addiction, the game’s interface and “talent trees”
are immediately reminiscent of World of Warcraft’s(WoW), and
rightly so. While a chief complaint from the hardcore-WoW-hat-
ers league (pretty sure that exists), the reason the interface is so
similar is seemingly to lower the entry barrier for new players.
The second complaint is that it feels too much like Warhammer
Online (but, I loved Warhammer Online (before the company
went bankrupt (there’s only 4 playable servers left up (it’s really
a sad thing)))). But Rift seems to be fusing the best elements of Photo by STC(SS) David Sissel

Rift operates in a very familiar manner, when it comes to level-

Father Winter gives SUBASE cold shoulder

Public Works and Morale, Welfare and Recreation snow removal vehicles cleared base roads and parking lots following
Winter Storm Benedict last week. As a reminder, SUBASE personnel are required to remove vehicles from roadways and GROTON, Conn. – Shown is the snow-covered landscape between Buildings 492 and 455 on board Naval Submarine
parking lots during snow storms so road crews can properly treat surfaces and remove snow. The snow removal map was Base New London (SUBASE), Jan. 12. SUBASE Sailors worked throughout the night of Jan. 11 and into the following

pay increases in the execu-
tive order, he added.
“You should not use that
privilege to grant a pay
raise,” he said.
Tamburrino said he encour-
ages managers to use the
tools that always have been
available to them – and still are
– to reward employees.
“When it’s appropriate, you
give somebody a performance
award,” he said. “If you tell
them the organization has
five or six goals, and they do
a lot of heavy lifting to help
you get to those goals, then I
think you should sit down as
a leader and say, ‘We have to
recognize that.’”
Most employees, he said,
want three things: clear guid-
ance on the management
team’s priorities, the tools
and resources necessary to
complete their work, and
coaching and feedback.
“Financial compensation is
important because it is; we
all have financial obligations
ees.”
The freeze covers what have
traditionally been known
as general pay increases, he
said, which normally take
effect each January and con-
sist of a combination of base
pay and locality pay increases
for most civilian employees.
Federal civilian pay increased
an average of 3.5 percent in
2008, 3.9 percent in 2009, and
2 percent in 2010, according
to government figures.
“The president determined,
based on the state of the
economy, that those pay
raises that are statutory in
nature should not be granted
[during the two-year freeze],”
Tamburrino said.
According to the OPM
guidance, the freeze, which
extends though Dec. 31,
2012, affects some 2 million
federal civilian employees in
most pay systems: general
schedule, executive sched-
ule, senior executive service,
senior foreign service, senior-
level and scientific, and pro-
fessional. Postal employees
and military service mem-
bers are not affected by the
freeze.
However, OPM officials
said, the pay freeze poli-
cy may not apply to any
increase that is required by
a collective bargaining agree-
ment that has already been
executed.
Except for minor instances
in Alaska, Hawaii and other
nonforeign areas, locality pay
also is frozen, Tamburrino
said.
“I think everybody recog-
nizes [the pay freeze] was a
really difficult decision,” he
said. “I think we did a tre-
mendous job in issuing some
very clear guidance, and I
think the leadership of the
Department of Defense did
a really good job in mak-
ing it very level and even
across the department.”
