3. Congratulations to IC3 Fleming of V-2 Air Department USS Nimitz for winning the JVC
Everio Video Camera and was counseled via the winning puzzle by MA1 Robbins,
VAW117 CCC, during the Annual Career Fair onboard USS Nimitz. (PHOTOS next page)
Career Fair 2009 was held at the Mess Deck led by Nimitz & Airwing CCCs. NC1 Wallace
led in providing all the logistics & coordination. The highlight was the raffling of a $400+
Video Camera (sponsored by Nimitz MWR) but with a catch. In order to be drawn, Sailors
must answer either one of the puzzles and to get the answers must approach any of the
counselors at the table during the fair. A fun way to do a training from Post 9-11 GI Bill &
NCPACE to PTS to STA-21. An estimated 1,000 Sailors participated & 500 in the drawing.
“Career Fair was not all about the $400 camera but about Sailor’s “priceless” career. We
hope that everyone shall follow-through in what the Sailors have learned from the Career
Counselors (from CCC down to divisional career counselors) during the fair. Counselors
provided direction and counsel about the many programs & incentives.” – NCC Astro.
Special thanks to Fun Boss for the Video Camera.

2010 BAH Impacts New GI Bill groups.
The DoD released the 2010 Basic Allowance for Housing charts on December 15. This is potentially
big news for veterans using the Post-9/11 GI Bill because the living stipend (aka housing stipend) is
directly tied to the BAH for an e-5 with dependents. Although some may see their GI Bill Living
stipend increase by as much as 13.6 percent in 2010, the average increase will be more like 2.5
percent. Some may see no increase at all because the rates for 43% of the military housing areas
