of
the
‘Southernmost Flyer’ is the
last to be published with a
mixture of ink and oil on news-
print. Beginning April 24, Naval Air
Station Key West’s SMF newspaper
is going digital.
Readers can access the digital
publication through a link on the
installation’s website - www.cnic.

that will be posted each week on the
NAS Key West Facebook fan page.

hen it rains, it pours.
Life is extremely busy
this month for work,
home and school. There are a lot
of activities calling for my attention. So of course, the inevitable
happens; my child is home sick.
It also happens that while I write
this I am the caretaker of this child
for the rest of the day so that my
wife can fulfill her commitments.
So duty calls me home.
As I found myself pondering this
week’s article, my daughter gave
me the inspiration; don’t worry, it
is nothing gross. Our children are
also on duty. They are the military children. If you did not know,
it is Military Child Appreciation
Month.
Our children have to endure a lot
for our military careers. They did
not have any choice in the matter.
They were either born or had to
transition into military life.
There are great benefits for children in the military, but there are
great hardships for them as well.
A lot of those hardships are emotional over any other type.
Every few years they have to
move to a new part of the country or even a whole new continent. Here they have to find their
place once again with new friends,
schools and schedules.
Depending on our assignment,
that child might have to not only
endure
these

possibility of mom
or dad deploying for months,
missing birthdays,
holidays, proms or
graduations. This
child also has no
NAS Key West
Command Chaplain promise that this
parent is coming
Lt.
home, or if they do
Ethan Everts
come home, won’t
have changed because of an injury,
physically or mentally.
On top of all of this, the child
is usually not emotionally mature
enough to handle all these stressors. As a result, they may act out,
struggle with school, withdraw
socially and more.
As their parents, we must help
them though these times. The
most important way is communication. It is critical the child has the
opportunity to express what they
are feeling through these transi-
tions. It may also be important
for you to express how you feel
about them as well. Then find ways
together to help through these
hard times.
It is also important to tell them
how much you love and appreciate them. Each child will want love
communicated differently. Some
may need a hug. Others way want
to get ice cream. Other children
may just want to do an activity
together. It also could be as simple
as speaking it to them.
No matter what it is, you need
to take time for them just as you
need to do for your spouse. Our
time with our children is limited
and you cannot take back the time
already gone. So I encourage you
to appreciate them starting today.
Even if they are out of the house,
send a letter or give them a call to
show your appreciation.
I appreciate your time in reading this article. I hope to see you
on Sundays at 10:30 a.m. at the
Truman Chapel for our worship
service.

care, please call your chaplains at

R
ear Adm. Kevin Delaney,
the former commander,
Navy Region Southeast,
member of the Florida Defense
Support Task Force and friend to
Naval Air Station Key West and Key
West, died April 7 at the age of 68 in
Jacksonville, Florida.
Delaney, who flew 686 combat
missions in Vietnam, retired in
1998 as the most decorated officer
in the U.S. Navy.
Even after his retirement
Delaney continued to support the
Navy and its Sailors. He was a past
guest speaker at NAS Key West’s
Navy Ball and spoke at a remem-
brance ceremony welcoming the
traveling Vietnam Veterans Wall to
Key West.
“Rear Adm. Delany has been a
great friend and unequaled supporter of
Naval Air
Station Key
West and
the
Key
West comm u n i t y,”
said Ron
Demes, the
former NAS
Delaney
Key West
executive director who now works
for Naval Air Warfare Center ATMO.
“He has been safeguarding military interests for both over the
years, first as the regional commander in the 1990s and most
recently as a member of the
FDSTF,” Demes said. “His Key West
legacy will live on for many years
to come.”
In Jacksonville, Delaney served
on the board of 19 nonprofits,
including the Wounded Warrior
Project and the Ronald McDonald
House.
Gov. Rick Scott recognized
Delaney for his service to the
nation, Navy and Florida in a statement issued April 8:

leader during his service in the
Navy, and he continued to serve

SPOUSE SPOTLIGHT

MA2 Tommy Hayner
ACCS Milford Whitson
My
stunning
wife
Christina Gunn Burnett
is the reason and driving
force behind all of the success and happiness in this
Sailor’s life. My wife is a fulltime reservations specialist
at Parrot Key Resorts and
the mother to our three
wonderful children. She
supports, protects and loves
her family fiercely and with
all of her heart.
Christina is my hero and
I couldn’t imagine life without her.
I do not know where I
would be without the love
of my life, my wife Athena.
Throughout our four years
of marriage she has been
there through thick-andthin for me; everything that
I am today I owe to her.
She undoubtedly has been
the absolute best mother to
our daughters, Cherish and
Harmony; her guidance and
nurturing show each day
our girls grow. We are grateful to have her; she is the
backbone of our family.
In the years we have been
together my wife Heejeong
has been nothing short of
amazing. She has showed
great courage through my
deployments, support during permanent change of
station moves and great
patience during the dayto-day Navy life. She is an
amazing mother and gives
our two children unconditional love. I want to say
“thank you” to my wife and
best friend for everything
she does.
A Navy wife for 17 years,
Christie is a model of the
perfect military spouse
and no doubt the driving
force behind our successful
Navy career. Through seven
moves, two unaccompanied
tours and the day-to-day
demands of Navy life, her
support for me, our family, our Command and the
Navy has never wavered.
Without my wife Christie’s
support, counsel and dedication I would not be where
I am today.

Tricare beneficiaries target of medication marketing scam
FROM TRICARE
T
400559
he Defense Health
Agency, Office of
Program Integrity
has received a significant
number of reports from
Tricare beneficiaries about
unsolicited attempts by
“call centers” seeking personal and health information so that they can allegedly provide prescribed
cream medications to the
beneficiary.
Tricare and its contractors never call and ask for
personal identifying infor-
400650
mation or health information. Beneficiaries should
be wary of unsolicited
attempts by any entity asking for personal or health
information, either by
phone or in person.
The call center caller typically makes a cold call and
say, "I am a representative
calling from XYZ, we are
calling to tell you about a
benefit Tricare will cover for
you for a prescription pain
cream you are eligible for.”
The caller will tell the
beneficiary that “Tricare
wants to get you taken care
of, all we need are your
Doctor’s name and your
Tricare information and we
will contact your doctor and
get these medications or
supplies out to you immediately and submit a claim.”
DHA PI strongly advises
that beneficiaries not provide any information to
these types of requests.
Often these call centers have identified beneficiaries using the limited information available
through search engines like
“Google.”
If you are contacted,
don’t provide information.
Rather, immediately submit
a fraud line report to the
Pharmacy Benefits contractor ESI. Call the Fraud Tip

f you Google “male sexual assault statistics”
the search engine automatically populates “male
sexual assault statistics in
the military” before you
even finish typing.
Imagine my surprise
when I found this out.
It wasn’t because I
believed the myth that men
can’t be sexually assaulted.
Rather, it was because as
a society we don’t generally think that male sexual
assault would occur in the
military.
Yet just last month, the
Government Accountability
Office released a report
entitled “Actions Needed to
Address Sexual Assaults of
Male Service Members.”
According to information
in the report, only 13 percent of men in the military
who were sexually assaulted reported their assaults;
yet, at least 40 percent of
the women in the military
who were assaulted made
reports.
Additionally, in 2008
the DoD acknowledged
it needed to address an
“unofficial” military culture
that was defined by exaggerated characteristics of
stereotypical masculinity.
That culture, among other
things, included values and
customs that may perpetuate rape.
If we aren’t able to overcome the stereotypes of
what is masculine, then the
crime of male sexual assault
in the military will continue
to be overlooked.
One myth of the stereotype is that real men should
be ashamed to ask for, or
need, help. To do so is a sign
of weakness.
Of course, that myth isn’t
reality, yet it is just one of
the many stereotypes men
face in situations where, in
reality, their gender plays no
role.
The time is now for sexual assault, regardless of
whether the victim is a man
or woman, to be viewed for
what it is - as a heinous
crime against an individual.
The victim should be able
to have support from peers,
the military and society.
If we as Sailors and shipmates live the Navy core
values of honor, courage
and commitment, we can
overcome the stereotypes
and provide encouragement and support for anyone and everyone who is
victimized.
Support and assistance
are available to victims
through the Sexual Assault
Prevention and Response
Program and peer victim
advocates. To get help, call

Youth Fest attendees place their hands over their hearts for the national
anthem at Sigsbee Park
STORY AND PHOTOS BY MC1 (SW/AW) BRIAN MORALES
The Key West High School Naval Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps parade the colors.
Southernmost Flyer
T
hey may not wear a uniform, but their sacrifice for this country
is well noted. The average child in a military family moves an
estimated six - nine times during a school career, according to
DoD Education Activity.
To show appreciation for their sacrifices, Morale, Welfare and
Recreation celebrated the Month of the Military Child with its 26th
annual Naval Air Station Key West Youth Fest at Sigsbee Park Saturday.
“We’re celebrating all military children because it’s hard being a
military child and moving around from place to place, so it’s a good
reason to help them come together,” said YN1 Tristan Hill, member of
the Southernmost First Class Petty Officer Association.
FCPOA provided hamburgers and hot dogs with chips and drinks at
the event.
“This is a good thing the MWR is doing and I fully support it,” Hill
added.
The Youth Center’s dance group “Uptown Funk” performed hip-hop
dance routines throughout the day along with other youth performances. Thriller BMX Team also put on a stunt show for spectators.
Other activities included the Youth Center’s Goodfellas and SMART
Girls Bake-Off, a Home Depot Kid’s Workshop, marine life touch tanks,
the inflatable Bootcamp Challenge, bounce houses, a water/bicycle/
pedestrian safety exhibit, Nikki’s Face Painting and the Keys Photo
Booth.
Event sponsors were USAA, University of Phoenix, Waste
Management, Seacamp, Sparkling Ice, Fury Water Adventures, The
Home Depot, Military Affairs Committee, Navy League Key West
Council and the Key West Area Chief Petty Officers Association.
Attendees build objects at the Home Depot Kid’s Workshop.

Citizen, which had published the
paper without cost in exchange for
placing advertisement, was ending,
Denny said.
The Citizen printed just over
2,500 issues each week and delivered to facilities on all four annexes.
Advertising wasn’t supporting the
increasing costs of production and
the Rapid Gate access fees.
Additionally, except for when visitors were here for the season, the
number of newspapers that ended
up in the recycling bin was well above
1,000.
The trend for publications to
publish online began with the last
decade; now most newspapers have

Work kicked off Monday when crews

digital editions that are exact replicas
of their print editions.
The first issue of the Southernmost
Flyer was published Nov. 17, 1989.
The “Captain’s Corner” carried a column by Commanding Officer Capt.
J.C. Ensch, who served as the installation commander from July 1989
- July 1991.
“I’m excited about the prospect
of having a new base newspaper to
serve the military, DoD employee
and retired community of Key West,”
Ensch wrote in that first column.
The newspaper started out as a
regular-sized broadsheet and then
transitioned to a tabloid - half the
size - in the late 1990s.
Before the SMF, there was no
installation newspaper, according
to Cathy Robinson, who manages

Another project is a .4 mile fitness
trail that will start and end on either
side of the Youth Center. The surfaced
trail will wind around the ball fields
and have five exercise stations.
The focus of the playground projects at the Child Development Center and Youth Center involves updating the area with modern equipment,
Campbell said.
The 5,000 square-foot water playground is designated to
be adjacent to the Sigsbee
Community Center.
“It will be in an enclosed
compound,” Campbell
said. “It will have two
areas, one for smaller
children and the other for
older children.”
The interactive playground will allow youngsters to push buttons to
set off the water flow in
fountains, bubblers and
sprinklers.
Work on the Youth
Center addition, designed
for teens and pre-teens,
began in 2014, should be
completed soon Campbell
said. The plan is to have all
of the projects done by late

ball fields to prepare for the installation
of artificial turf.
“This will improve the quality of the
playing fields,” Campbell said. “Our
fields were getting torn up because of
fire ants and iguanas; it was hard to
maintain the fields. “We submitted
for this project in 2010 and have been
working with CNIC and Naval Facilities
Engineering Command the last two
years in the contract requirements.”

“MWR had a newsletter but the
base didn’t have anything,” she said.
Robinson, who is listed in that
first issue as the MWR Public Affairs
Specialist, was responsible for writing the MWR content. She remembers joining the Public Affairs Officer,
Lt. Maria Gotthard, and a Fleet
and Family representative working
together at the Citizen to produce
the paper.
They would typeset the stories
and do paste-up on light tables in
the production shop. The small
SMF staff did everything but run the
printing press.
“I’m going to miss it,” Robinson
said. “I like holding a paper. I’m going
to miss getting black ink all over my
hands.
