Whether you’ve been riding motorcycles for years or just received your stateside endorsement prior to arriving to Rota, attending an approved Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) course is mandatory before you can start riding on or off base.

Safety of personnel and families remains a priority in Rota, and the base recently took additional steps to ensure its staying ahead of motorcycle mishaps. Commander, Navy Region Europe, Africa, Southwest Asia (EURAFSWA) Regional Recreation/Off-duty Safety Officer, Donald Borkoski , spent Oct. 26 to 30 in Rota teaching eight students how to properly teach the Basic Rider Course (BRC) and Advanced Rider Course (ARC). Those eight students are now certified to teach the BRC and ARC to new students, both in the classroom and on the road.

“I’m here to teach these students how to become good riding coaches,” said Borkoski. “We discussed how to conduct the Basic Rider Course and the Advanced Rider Course. We go over everything from basic techniques and fundamentals to how to start and stop the bike without putting yourself in danger.”

The BRC is designed for beginning riders. It consists of eight to 10 hours of classroom-style instruction that covers the different types of motorcycles, layout and operation of the basic controls and how to become a safer, more responsible rider. The classroom portion of

the course prepares students for 10 hours of hands-on riding exercises in a controlled, off-street environment where the instructor will perform 14 different exercises including leaning, turning, lane changes and crossing

obstacles.After completing the BRC, riders can enroll in the

ARC, which is a one-day course that provides more in-depth riding techniques and procedures than practiced in the BRC.

“The Advanced Rider Course teaches additional skills and techniques that are more conducive to the bigger, faster, more maneuverable motorcycles,” said Borkoski. “It’s an aggressive course so you need some skills before you can attend the course, that’s why the Basic Rider Course is a prerequisite.”

While instructing his eight coaches on the riding range, Borkoski stressed to them that they must control the range at all times and that safety and personal protective equipment (PPE) are paramount.

“When you ride, you have to manage risk,” said Borkoski. “If you’re riding a motorcycle then you are already accepting more risk than driving a car. If you choose to ride and you don’t manage your risk, any errors you have can be deadly. I encourage all riders to improve their risk management through training as much as possible to become a better rider.”

Borkoski said all riders should know their motorcycle, know how to use it and know that wearing PPE is a must. He also stressed that staying alert, preparing for foul weather and keeping your motorcycle properly maintained are all ways to manage your risk to ride safe.

Borkoski also mentioned that Nava Station Rota is the only EUARAFSWA installation that currently offers a basic scooter-riding course for teenagers. He said it’s

Hola Team Rota! Can you believe we are now into the month of November?

We have definitely been busy! I trust everyone had a wonderful and fun Halloween weekend despite the weather.

Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) threw an awesome Trunk or Treat at the drive-in movie theater, the Seabees had a wicked haunted house and family housing catered to more than 1,500 Spanish and Americans for trick-or-treating. It was an eventful weekend.

FDNF ShipsWelcome back USS Ross

(DDG 71) and USS Porter (DDG 78)! USS Ross returned last week after working with our partners up north on a NATO exercise and USS Porter returned from their patrol

yesterday, which also showed America’s reassuring presence to our NATO allies. It’s good to have everyone back safe and sound! Also, I want to wish the Sailors of USS Carney (DDG 64) a safe four months as they depart this weekend for their time out on patrol. We look forward to your return next year.

Naval Station Rota 2015 Sailors of the YearI want to recognize and congratulate Naval Station

Rota’s 2015 Sailors of the Year for their sustained superior performance over the entire year. We have many superb Sailors at Naval Station Rota so the competition was pretty tough to

achieve this coveted award. This year’s awards go to:• Senior Sailor of the Year - Air Traffic Controller 1st Class

Julio Lamar, Air Operations• Sailor of the Year – Aviation Boatswain’s Mate

(Handling) 2nd Class Macky Sall, Fire Department• Junior Sailor of the Year – Electronics Technician 3rd

Apprentice Andrew Grippon, Air OperationsGreat job to our Sailors!Regional Installation Excellence AwardNaval Station Rota was selected to represent Commander,

Navy Region Europe, Africa, Southwest Asia for the Commander in Chief’s Large Installation Excellence Award. This is a result of every command and organization on this base not doing just their job, but doing it superbly! Next, we will compete against the other regions within Commander, Navy Installations Command in the next month or so. All of the accreditations and awards, all of the hard work our volunteers do and all 35-plus tenant commands working together have made Naval Station Rota one of the premier Naval bases around the world! Thank you!

U.S. Marine Corps 240th BirthdayNext Tuesday the U.S. Marines Corps will celebrate its

240th Birthday. It was on Nov. 10, 1775 in Philadelphia when two battalions of Continental Marines were formed as a force capable of fighting both on land and at sea. This weekend our U.S. Marines of Fleet Antiterrorism Security Team (FAST) Company will have the opportunity to celebrate their 240th birthday at the Marine Corps Ball. Have a great time Marines, be safe and thank you for everything you do for our country!

Recycle your old tin cans. Recycling and reusing the material in tin cans reduces related energy use by 74 percent, air pollution by 85 percent, solid waste by 95 percent, and water pollution by 76 percent.

Recycle your old aluminum cans when you can. When you toss out one aluminum can you waste as much energy as if you’d filled the same can half full of gasoline and poured it onto the ground.

Recycle your old plastic soda bottles, milk bottles, detergent bottles, and whatever other plastic your community accepts for recycling. These can be used to produce a variety of items, including other detergent bottles, plastic lumber, fiberfill sleeping bag insulation, and clothing. Twenty-six recycled plastic soda bottles can make one polyester suit.

Pass on the bottle and drink from the tap. Annual U.S. demand for bottled water requires more than 17 million barrels of oil. Of plastic water bottles used in the U.S., 86 percent become garbage or litter. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) water quality standards for tap water are more stringent than the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) standards for bottled water.

it’s a great program because it provides the basic skills to teens so they can safely and legally.

In August 2009, the Spanish National Department of Traffic agreed to recognize Naval Station Rota’s moped/scooter licensing program so base personnel and family members, particularly teenagers without a U.S. driver’s license, can obtain a Spanish moped/scooter license.

Dependent teenagers without a U.S. license who wish to obtain a Spanish moped license must pass a road sign test, a vision test and the MSF course.

The three-day course ended with a knowledge test and rider skill evaluation. Students who successfully complete the course were issued a serialized certification card, known as a MSF card.

The U.S. license is only valid on base. To legally drive off base, applicants must go to the Security Department Pass & ID with his or her U.S. license to initiate issuance of a Spanish moped/scooter license.

For more information about the Basic or Advanced Rider Safety Course, contact the Rota Safety Office at 727-2409.

Fifty-five Spanish physicians and hospital executives visited U.S. Naval Hospital Rota Oct. 22, for a social event that included a guided tour of the hospital, refreshments and Capt. LaVencion Starks, U.S. Naval Hospital Rota commanding officer, awarding letters of appreciation.

U.S. Naval Hospital Rota maintains host nation relations with numerous hospitals and clinics included in their Preferred Provider Network (PPN), which they regularly refer patients for care. American providers took advantage of the opportunity to meet their Spanish counterparts during the social event and put faces to names of physicians throughout the region to which they refer their patients.

With more than 50 American staff in attendance, Starks greeted hospital personnel and their Spanish guests.

“I want to thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend this event of appreciation with us today,” said Starks. “Thank you for opening your doors to us as we continue our journey together in our partnership. We are humbled to have the opportunity to show you our hospital today.”

The event offered the opportunity to enhance relationships between Spain and the United States. After Starks presented letters of appreciation, the Spanish guests were provided a tour of 11 hospital departments, to include Medical Home Port and the Emergency Room, where a multitude of referrals originate. Translators were available throughout the visit to facilitate communication between the American and Spanish in attendance.

“It’s critical that we continue to work closely together on our collective journey towards quality healthcare delivery,” said Starks. “We put our trust in you, in your knowledge and in your performance. I not only speak to you today on behalf of our hospital, but for the entire American community on Naval Station Rota, because the services that you offer to our patients are vital to both our mission and the wellbeing of our families.”

God is not magical but He is powerful. The difference is magic is an illusion, a distraction performed by humans. Divine power is a supernatural force that can bend the laws of nature to perform supernatural activity. Only one is real. The power

of God is real and only He possesses such power.When you think of God do you think of Him as

having limited or unlimited strength? Your answer will determine how big God is. Many of us seem to have a very limited view of just how large God is based upon disheartening past experiences where it seemed God did not intervene. Since it seemed that God did not intervene during that moment, we assume one of two things, if not both. First, we assume that God is not able to change or rearrange the situations in our lives. Secondly, we assume God does not care. Both assumptions prove to be false when compared to scripture because scripture tells us that God is

a God of compassion who cares for you and He can resurrect any circumstance we may be going through.

The question then becomes if God is so powerful and he cares for me then why did He not intervene in the past or why is He not changing my situation now? We must never forget that God’s power is directly connected to His will. Jesus understood this when in the Garden of Gethsemane. It was there He prayed about not having to go to the cross but then ended His prayer with not my will, but yours

be done. Think about the one moment in your life that you thought God should had intervened but did not. What did you learn from that situation and about yourself? Can you say it made you wiser, more compassionate or caused you to grow in your faith as a result? If so, that would be the ultimate intervention God had for your life.

Make no mistake about it, even when situations are bad and it looks as if God is not involved, remember God is always involved and is concerned about your wellbeing. If you look in the book of Genesis and study the life of Joseph, you will see a young man who was sold into slavery by his brothers, accused of rape by his master and ultimately thrown into prison. During this entire scripture it tells us that God was with him. Before his story was finished he was second in command of Egypt and told his brothers, “Do not be afraid, for am I in the place of God? But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive.”

No matter how bad his situation was, Joseph knew deep in his soul that God was ultimately in control, overriding the limited power of man and bringing about his good in the process. Did it feel good going through the process? No! But he became wiser to know that even when situations were bad and he felt alone, he knew he was in the place of God.

If you are in a bad place know this, God recognizes the place you are in now, he sees you, and therefore you are in the place of God. And, it is better to be in a bad situation with God than in a good situation without Him. As we come to a close of one more study of the many attributes of God, remember He is all powerful and that He is able to resurrect your situation and if He doesn’t that is because He has a better plan for you in view.

“It’s a very thankless job and takes certain types of people to do it,” said Hasbrouck. “It’s very easy if you have good support and a good chain of command. I like being able to help the community and interact with people. Plus, it allows me to learn new things every day.”

Hasbrouck sa id her biggest accomplishment thus far is being selected as the distinguished graduate in “A” School. When she gets qualified as a patrolman, she will get frocked to 3rd class petty officer.

Hasbrouck be l i eves that whatever obstacles someone may approach in life, they can always overcome them.

The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Porter (DDG 78) arrived in Split, Croatia, for a scheduled port visit Oct. 28.

The port visit serves to strengthen ties between the U.S. and Croatia and improve

relations as the two nations work together for a stable, secure and prosperous region.

“The U.S. shares a commitment with our NATO allies to promote peace and stability across the Sixth Fleet area of operations,” said Cmdr. Blair Guy, commanding officer, USS Porter. “We conduct a host of activities and security cooperation initiatives with Croatia. Our visit here is the second ship visit this year and demonstrates our continued commitment to improving our combined interoperability and capabilities to respond to threats in the region.”

This port visit will provide the crew of Porter with an opportunity to meet with the people of Split and to experience the rich history and culture of Croatia.

Sailors will participate in various tours hosted by the ship’s Morale, Welfare and Recreation team (MWR) highlighting the cultural attractions of Croatia.

The Porter’s visit, board, search and seizure (VBSS) team will host a Maritime Interdiction Operation Seminar onboard the ship for 15 Croatian Navy and Coast Guard members to demonstrate tactics and techniques. This visit provides Sailors an opportunity to meet with naval counterparts in order to strengthen bonds for an enhanced partnership.

Cmdr. Guy is expected to have office calls with the Mayor of Split and the Commander of the Croatian Navy Flotilla.

The Porter will also host Vice Adm. James Foggo III, commander, 6th Fleet, during a distinguished visitor (DV) reception.

Porter is currently working with allies and regional partners to help develop and improve our maritime forces, maintain regional security, and work towards mutual goals in order to advance security and stability in Europe.

USS Porter, forward-deployed to Rota, Spain, is conducting naval operations in the U.S. 6th Fleet area of operations in support of U.S. national security interests in Europe. The ship deployed from Naval Station Rota June 29.

On Senior Recognition Day, the undefeated and number one seeded, Rota Admirals, advanced to the Division II DoDDS-Europe championship football game with a 42-6 victory over the number four seeded Hohenfels Tigers.

“I am very proud of this team,” said Ken Walter, DGF head football coach. “They have gone from a winless season in 2013 to a three win season in 2014 and now the number one seed, 7-0 and in the championship game

in 2015. Admiral coaches and players have worked very hard and I am proud of each one of them.”

The Admirals’ offense features a well-balanced rushing attack; the opponent never knows who is going to get the ball. It might be Andrew Flemming up the middle, Marc Magwood off of the tackle or Jake Anderson on a quarterback keeper. When you think you have that figured out, here comes Andres Torres around the left side on a jet sweep or D’lo Gallardo on a reverse to the right side.

The same linemen who opened up huge holes for the offense stifled the Tigers’ attack all game long. Robert

Rivera and Damaris Barkley led the defense in tackles from the linebacker spot, while Armani Walker-Snelling and Sam Gallardo handled the deep passing threats.

The Admirals will play the championship game against the also undefeated, number two seeded Ansbach Cougars on Saturday at Kaiserslautern, Germany.

“We are the number one seed,” said Walter. “Ansbach are the defending champs. This looks to be a very even matchup that either team could win. We had a much tougher schedule and Ansbach has the experience. We may be the favorites to win but I think it will be a "pick 'em" game.”

The Navy Exchange Service Command (NEXCOM) has been offering students a chance to help pay for college through its A-OK Student Reward Program since 1997. The A-OK Student Reward Program offers all qualified students to participate in a quarterly drawing for monetary awards of $2,500, $1,500, $1,000 or $500 for a total of $5,500 per quarter. The next drawing will be held at the end of November 2015.

Any eligible full-time student that has a B-grade point average equivalent or better, as determined by their school system, may enter the drawing. Homeschooled students can also qualify with acknowledgement that the student has a “B” average or equivalent record of accomplishment. Eligible students include dependent children of active duty military members, reservists and military retirees enrolled in grades 1 through 12. Dependent children without an individual Dependent Identification Card must be ac-companied by their sponsor to submit their entry. Each student may enter only once each grading period and must re-enter with each qualifying report card.

To enter the drawing, stop by the NEX with a current report card or progress report and have a NEX associate verify the eligibility. Then fill out an entry card and obtain an A-OK ID which entitles the student to 19 discount coupons for NEX products and services. Along with the award, each winner will receive a lapel pin, cer-tificate and medallion ribbon “In Honor of Academic Excellence.”

Since the program’s inception, NEXCOM has awarded over $640,000 to students with the help of its generous vendor partners.

Veterans have been referred to as “someone who wrote a blank check payable to the United States of America for an amount up to, and including, their life.” Veterans are the men and women who, past or present, took an oath to defend the United States of America from all enemies foreign and domestic. All too often, carrying out those duties requires inconceivable sacrifices along the way for both the service member and their families.

For the sixth straight year U.S. Naval Hospital Rota, in partnership with many other organizations, will be hosting a Veterans’ Day Family Health Fair. For our retired veterans, starting at 9 a.m. on the second deck inside Classroom A, Capt. Greg Pekari, commanding officer, Naval Station Rota, will open the Retiree Seminar followed by presentations from representatives from Veterans’ Affairs, as well as staff from the Retired Activities Office. Upon conclusion of the seminar, there will be a drawing for prizes (you must be present to claim your prize). After the seminar, the Veterans’ Day Family Health fair will begin at 12:15 p.m. in the hospital’s courtyard with posting of the colors by the NJROTC Color Guard, followed by opening remarks from Capt. Lavencion Starks, commanding officer, U.S. Naval Hospital Rota.

Immediately following the opening remarks and cake cutting ceremony, you are invited to stop by information booths sponsored by many different organizations that provide services daily to the veterans and their families. Topics of interest include various hospital services, American Red Cross, commissary, Educational and Developmental Intervention Services, Fire Safety, Fleet and Family Support Center, Morale Welfare Recreation, Navy College, Navy Federal, Navy Marine Corps Relief Society, Retired American Military Iberian Council, Veterans’ Affairs and Veterinary Services.

This event will be open to all veterans and their family members. We hope to see you there! A limited amount of “free food” will be provided. For questions or more information, please contact Health Promotions at 727-3350. Stay Healthy for Life Rota!

The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Donald Cook (DDG 75) entered Aksaz, Turkey, Oct. 30, for a scheduled port visit during exercise Dogu Akdeniz 2015.

Exercise Dogu Akdeniz, which commenced Oct. 27, is a biennial, multi-national maritime exercise led and hosted by Turkey.

“Donald Cook looks forward to another successful exercise with our close friends and strategic allies, the Turkish Navy,” said Cmdr. Charles Hampton, commanding officer, USS Donald Cook. “I have had the pleasure of visiting Turkey two times in the past and look forward to another great visit. We are dedicated to continuously developing our relationship and tactical proficiencies alongside the Turkish Navy. As a Rota-based ship, we have the opportunity to operate alongside Turkey year round, in both the Mediterranean and Black Seas.”

The exercise is meant to increase proficiencies in a number of warfare areas and increase interoperability between participating nations.

Specific training includes anti-surface warfare, anti-subsurface warfare, anti-air warfare and basic seamanship.

The exercise demonstrates the U.S. Navy’s continued commitment to our relationship with Turkey and a secure and prosperous Europe.

“This is an exciting event for Donald Cook as we work with our Turkish Allies to promote peace and stability in the region,” said Cmdr. Timothy Moore, executive officer, USS Donald Cook. “As with the recent [U.S.-Turkish] exercise conducted by USS Kearsarge, Dogu Akdeniz will flex our planning and operational capabilities and strengthen the professional and personal relationships of both Navies.”

USS Donald Cook, forward-deployed to Rota, Spain, is conducting naval operations in the U.S. 6th Fleet area of operations in support of U.S. national security interests in Europe. The ship deployed from Naval Station Rota July 22, 2015.

Helping Students From Missing School for Dental Visits

Capt. Scott Curt ice, one of two orthodontists at U.S. Naval Hospital Rota Dental Clinic, stays an additional two hours Monday through Thursday, one week per month to provide extended time for appointments at the dental clinic. Currently the plan is to offer these extended appointments during the third week of the month on a monthly basis. Throughout the year however, there may be several months when this service may not be available due to conflicts with temporary additional duty, leave or holiday schedules. These extended appointments are reserved primarily for school children who have braces and are dependents of active duty military.

Curtice emphasized that these extended appointment times beyond their regular scheduled hours at the clinic helps minimize the amount of school missed by David Glasgow Farragut (DGF) students. The appointment times are meant for students with time-sensitive classes. The appointment slots begin to fill up about four to five weeks out and are usually completely filled within three to four weeks ahead of our currently scheduled appointments. Curtice began this service in September and will continue to offer these extended hours as long as patients show up at their scheduled appointment time. Currently, this service has been very successful with the more than 95 percent of patients making their appointments during the extended hours.

If you are currently a patient of either Capt. Curtice or Cmdr. Sean Donovan, are currently a student at the DGF school and would like to take advantage of these extended hours to minimize the disruption of your school schedule, please call the clinic to arrange an afterhours appointment by calling 727-3761.

& ut About

The 2015 leave year for all U.S. civilian employees will end on Jan. 9, 2016. On that date, those employees with accumulated annual leave in excess of their maximum permissible carryover (i.e., 240 hours for local hires and 360 hours for CONUS hires) will forfeit the excess hours.

Forfeited leave may be restored under the following conditions:a. Leave requests scheduling the excess hours for a period during the current

leave year must be submitted before the start of the third biweekly pay period to the end of the leave year, (i.e., 28 November 2015);

b. The leave is subsequently denied or cancelled due to exigencies of public service; or

c. The employee becomes incapacitated for work during the period of approved absence.

The requirement that leave be scheduled in advance is statutory and may be waived or modified, even where extenuating circumstance may exist. Requests for restoration of forfeited leave must be submitted after actual forfeiture, to HRO no later than Feb. 26, 2016.

A memo accompanied by supporting documentation must be forwarded from the immediate supervisor via the chain of command to the department head. The requests must include the name of the employee along with a full and detailed justification. If endorsed by the department head, the requests must be forwarded to the executive officer for approval via the Human Resources Office (HRO). If approved, HRO will prepare the memorandum to the Civilian Payroll Office to restore the forfeited annual leave.

Point of contact on this matter is Ms. Ana Maria Malvido, Human Resources Specialist at 727-1632 or [email protected].

Beef Tenderloin in Puff Pastry Stuffed with Dried FruitWe are back in the kitchen preparing and sharing an

autumn recipe, Tenderloin in puff pastry stuffed with nuts and sauce of Tintilla of Rota. It’s really delicious! This is a very festive recipe and is ideal to share with family, friends and guests. A trick for success is to make sure that the meat is well sealed and cold so that the juices remain inside so that the puff pastry does not get wet. The sauce made with the tintilla de Rota, a sweet sherry wine from the local windery, El Gato. We really hope you like it!

INGREDIENTS• 21 ounces o f bee f

tenderloin• 14 ounces of puff pastry• 1 egg• 1/3 cup of raisins

• 1/4 cup of dried apricots• 1/3 cup of plums• 3/8 cup of pine nuts.• 1 tablespoon butter• 7 ounces of Tintilla de

Rota

• Extra virgin olive oil• Salt• Black pepper, freshly

ground

TO PREPARE• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees

Fahrenheit.• Cut the meat into four stripes, season

them and put them in the pan with a few drops of olive oil. Cook one minute per side

• Chop the fruit and cook it with the pine nuts and wine for five minutes. Drain them and set aside.

• Spread the nuts over the fillets.• Extend the puff pastry and cut into

rectangles slightly bigger than the Sirloin strips.

• Wrap the meat with pastry and close. Brush with beaten egg and bake for 10 minutes.

• Cook the rest of the wine until it is reduced to half and then whip with the butter.

• Serve the chopped sirloin sliced accompanied with homemade mashed potatoes, French fries, salad and sauce.
