DEC_2013

For over three decades, AMSEC
has earned the trust of its
employees and the Navy enabling
the AMSEC team to apply their
skills and craft to increasingly
complex ship repairs.
From shipboard electrical work to
installation of alterations aboard
submarines, skilled craftsmen,
using sound procedural controls
and a fully engaged Environmental
Health and Safety (EHS) program,
our employees and customers
are assured that AMSEC performs
its work safely, accurately and
professionally.
Much has happened since our
founding in 1981 and as we close
out 2013, another door has opened
for AMSEC to enter into a new level
of ship repair. We have become
a member of a small group of
civilians operating nuclear reactors
belonging to the Naval Nuclear
Propulsion program. How did we
enter into such an elite fraternity?
Well, it took two events to provide
the opportunity and the hard work
of some very special employees to
make it a reality.
The first event happened when we
became part of the Newport News
Shipbuilding (NNS) team, one of
only two civilian shipyards licensed
to build, repair and operate naval
nuclear propulsion reactor plants.
This exacting, robust program
covers quality controls, training,
radiological controls and casualty
responses which are required
for the license. It is maintained
annually through inspections by
the U. S. Navy and the Department
of Energy (DOE).
The second event was a change
to the qualification requirements
for test engineers supporting
the inactivation of the USS
ENTERPRISE.
The normal path entails years
of classroom and practical
experience. During an overhaul or

President’s Holiday Letter
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot;
A bundle of toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a pedler just opening his pack.
His eyes—how they twinkled! his dimples, how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow;
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke, it encircled his head like a wreath;
He had a broad face and a little round belly
That shook when he laughed, like a bowl full of jelly.
He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,
And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself;
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread;
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk,
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose;
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight—
“Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night!”

new construction, test engineers operate the reactor in both maintenance and power-producing
conditions. Since the “…PRISE” is being deactivated, her eight reactors will never produce
power again. So the Navy and DOE approved a new qualification called, InactivationTest
Engineer (ITE). The purpose of individuals with this qualification would be to operate the reactor
plant systems on the ENTERPRISE, but only during the deactivation.This qualification allows
individuals with substantial experience in operating a naval nuclear propulsion plant to complete
their qualification in as little as six months.
NNS recognized that AMSEC employees possessed the prerequisite experience-level based on
prior nuclear experience obtained while serving in the Navy. Because of this experience, AMSEC
was invited to work on the ENTERPRISE’s deactivation team. In September of 2012, AMSEC
supplied candidates for its first NNS InactivationTest Engineer class. In May of 2013, three
AMSEC employees, Russell Belue, Harry Green, and MichaelTimmins, successfully completed
their certification by NNS and representatives from the Navy and DOE, becoming qualified
InactivationTest Engineers. Green qualified first and was on watch that week followed by Belue
andTimmins. Due to the shortage of certified ITEs, AMSEC provided 75% of all the certified
engineers the first month.
AMSEC now makes up 80% of the team, but soon that will change. Building on both academic
and waterfront success, AMSEC enrolled five additional candidates, Gary Simon, Tim Euman,
Will LaSalle, Pat Rhodes and Deric Owen. These five employees excelled in their final three
academic hurdles and have sprinted past the finish line joining the pioneers before them as
certified InactivationTest Engineers in the Nuclear Propulsion Program. p

Births
‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through
the house,
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
The children were nestled all snug in their beds;
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads;
And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long winter’s nap,
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow,
Gave a lustre of midday to objects below,
When what to my wondering eyes did appear,
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny rein-deer,
With a little old driver so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment he must be St. Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them
by name:
“Now, Dasher! now, Dancer! now Prancer andVixen!
On, Comet! on, Cupid! on, Donder and Blixen!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!”
As leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky;
So up to the housetop the coursers they flew
With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas too—
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.
As I drew in my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,

Dear Fellow AMSEC employees,
As we close 2013, I would like to again thank you for your contribution to another successful
year. AMSEC continues to win in a very competitive environment and to build our funded
backlog.We win because we are focused on enhancing our competitive advantage and by
leading this industry in safety, quality, cost, schedule, entrepreneurial spirit, and customer
satisfaction.
During this holiday season we can be thankful for having a good job in a great company. I’m
very proud of how generous our employees are with donating both their time and money
to help those in need through various charities and employee programs. Each year AMSEC
employees bring smiles to the faces of children by giving boxes of toys through theToys for
Tots campaign, and families in need are fed through the Food Bank campaigns that receive
canned goods collected at various AMSEC locations. Our leave donation program continues
to be a tremendous success. AMSEC employees repeatedly step-up and help their fellow
employees who request leave donation to cover an absence due to a medical hardship. Your
generosity makes it possible for these employees to take care of their loved ones. AMSEC’s
strategic giving program, AMSEC Cares, is also very successful with employees donating
almost $100,000 to the American Cancer Society, American Heart Association, Amyotrophic
Lateral Sclerosis Association (ALS), Feeding America, UnitedWay, and theWoundedWarrior
Project. The generous spirit of this holiday season fills the hearts of AMSEC employees
year round and it is truly something that sets us apart. Employees who would like to enroll
in the AMSEC CaresWorkplace Giving program should contact MirandaWilliams in Human
Resources at Miranda.Williams@hii-amsec.com.
As an additional savings incentive, in October, AMSEC announced the addition of a Roth
401(k) option to the AMSEC Employees 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan. Roth 401(k) provides an
alternative to the traditional pre-tax 401(k) option. You can enroll in the plan any time throughout the year, and choose to participate in one
or both plan options. You are eligible for the company match on both types of deferrals. Note that the deferral limits and match limits are on
your total deferrals. That means, if you choose to do both Roth and pre-tax, you can defer no more than $17,500 total (plus an additional $5,500
if you are age 50 or older), and receive a total maximum match of $2,200 for 2013. AMSEC’s match is being increased to $2,300 in 2014. I
highly encourage you to find out more by visiting vanguard.com/rothfeature or joining one of the informative webinars. The next webinar is
scheduled for January 29 at 11:30 a.m. (EST). If you are unable to attend this webinar and still want to learn more about Roth 401(k), please visit
http://ondemand.vanguard-education.com/roth at your convenience.
In keeping with AMSEC’s wellness initiatives, in October, AMSEC kicked-off its first Step-by-Step Challenge. One hundred and fifty-five
employees from many of our locations competed over a five week period. Together, those who participated took over 57,000,000 steps, which is
the equivalent of 25,000 miles! Way to go teams! These are all steps in the right direction to employee health and wellness, continuing to make
AMSEC a Fit-Friendly organization.
Workplace safety is another area in which we have made great strides. Despite a rough start to the year, we are currently meeting our injury
reduction goals, averaging less than four injuries per 100 full time employees. Over the past few years, we have averaged injury rates that are
roughly half the collective average of other companies in our industry.This is a great accomplishment and I want to recognize the employees,
supervisors, and managers who look out for safety and plan tasks with safety in mind every day.Your efforts are paying off. Low injury rates
result in fewer injured employees, less lost work days, and lower worker’s compensation premiums.This ultimately makes us more competitive
in the marketplace and adds to our good reputation.
You’ll constantly hear me mention safety in the work place and looking out for each other. The following are prime examples of why I do this.
Last month Sean Marshall (San Diego MMTS – SI PMO) was working with another employee from Raytheon on a vessel when they heard a
sailor calling for help; he had fallen down an open hatch. Had these two not heard his cries and come quickly to his rescue, the sailor could have
fallen to his death through several open decks. In a separate incident, Jeffrey Daley (Virginia MMTS – Carrier PMO – ESU) was performing his
routine Shipyard Competent Person duties using a gas meter when he detected high levels of carbon monoxide. He notified those present to
evacuate the space, and upon further assessment by Ship’s Force, the entire carrier was evacuated. Had Mr. Daley not evacuated the immediate
area and contacted Ship’s Force, one or more individuals could have suffered carbon monoxide exposure. These two AMSEC individuals were
already working in support of our customer when these opportunities for safety excellence presented themselves. Had they not been prepared
to respond immediately and appropriately, the outcomes could have been much worse.
On a final note, I want to wish you and your family happiness, health, and peace in a new year filled with hope.

Christmas!

2013 David E. LaMontagne Leadership Awards and ALS Fundraiser Picnic
On October 25, 2013, the Maintenance, Modernization andTechnical Services (MMTS) Operation of AMSEC LLC hosted its seventh annual
ALS Fundraiser Picnic. This event was held in honor of longtime AMSEC employee and Hall-of-Fame inductee, Dave LaMontagne.
Dave was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) in 2007 and although he fought courageously, he lost his battle with this
devastating disease on September 11, 2007. His memory and spirit lives on; however, with all of the lives he touched in his AMSEC family.
So, it was with great pride and determination that his employees in the MMTS Operation rolled up their sleeves once again to organize
such a special and successful event.
The fundraiser was held at AMSEC’s new corporate headquarters in Virginia Beach, Va., and was attended by over 200 of AMSEC’s
employees and members of the LaMontagne family. Fundraising activities included a 50/50 raffle, a raffle for NFL Jerseys, free rounds of
golf, and a silent auction for ODU football tickets donated by AMSEC employees. Overall, the event was a very successful fundraiser with
over $2,400 being raised for the ALS Association, whose mission is to help find a cure for this disease and provide comfort and support to
individuals and family members who suffer from ALS.
As this event was in honor of Dave, AMSEC’s MMTS Operations Manager,
Brad Mason, took the opportunity to award the 2013 David E. LaMontagne
Leadership Awards for the east coast. This award was first announced
at Dave’s Hall-of-Fame induction ceremony in August of 2007 and was
established to recognize demonstrated excellence in deck-plate leadership
among AMSEC’s employees. Dave always felt that the most important
employees in the company are the deck plate personnel, as they are the heart
and soul of the best naval shipboard maintenance provider in the industry. As
such, this award was established to recognize the leaders of that workforce
who continue to build an even stronger reputation for AMSEC, leading by
example.
Brad included Cindy LaMontagne, Dave’s wife, in presenting the award to
John Fizer. AsTeam Leader/Production Manager from the Elevator Support
Unit Division of the Carrier PMO, Fizer was recognized for his outstanding
coordination of work performed for NSWCCD Philadelphia, Code 970, under
the SeaPort Enhanced (SeaPort-e) contract. In addition, his leadership and
technical skill-sharing has equipped each team member with the ability to
perform in an exceptional manner, as part of a team or an individual assist to
the customer. Fizer received a commemorative plaque and a check for $1,000.
On November 6, 2013, in another ceremony held in Bremerton,Wa., Brad Mason addressed a large gathering of AMSEC Bremerton
personnel and presented Bruce Clements with the David E.
LaMontagne Leadership Award for the west coast. Clements, as
Production Electrical Supervisor, for the COMNAVAIRPAC Carrier
Engineering Maintenance AssistTeam (CEMAT) Program, also from
the Carrier PMO, was recognized for his reputation as the go-to-guy
when it comes to electrical problems with the Aqueous Fire Fighting
Foam (AFFF) system to include answering questions directly from the
COMNAVAIRPAC Naval Engineer, Maintenance Program Managers
(MPMs), and respective CVN Commanding Officers, as well as
from the ship’s aviation staff, including the Air Boss, Mini Boss,
and Air Handler. Clements recognizes each of his team member’s
contribution by submitting award nomination inputs and through
daily praising of the individual team members with “a job well done.”
Those attributes, along with his ability to encourage and challenge
his team to adapt to the changes of U.S. Navy ship schedules in this
dynamic environment inspired his selection for this award. Clements
also received a commemorative plaque and check for $1,000.
All in all, AMSEC’s 2013 ALS Fundraiser was an enormously
successful and well attended event, worthy of the great man being
honored. Special thanks go out to Stephanie Brown, Lisa Kodrin,
Judy Rowles, KimTingle, IvyWilliams, Deanna Besong, Cheryl
Speelman, and George Bates, the setup and tear down crew, and many others for their hard work and attention to detail in making this
fundraiser so successful. Big thanks go to the directors and managers who volunteered to cook and serve at this great event.
Finally, congratulations to John and Bruce for the well deserved and prestigious honor in receiving the David E. LaMontagne Leadership
Award.Your performance truly exemplifies the core values brought to AMSEC LLC by Dave and he would have been very proud of you.

a christmas feast forthe heart and soul
During the week of November 4, 2013, Harris Leonard and Brad Mason traveled to the Pacific Northwest (PNW) for the annual all-hands
meeting to announce Bruce Clements as the west coast winner of the Dave
LaMontagne award. This award coincides with the holiday season, so there
are plenty of reasons to celebrate.
The day started early for MikeThomas, B.J. Misenar and Gayland Bockhahn
as preparations to cook and serve over 100 employees started at 4 a.m. The
AMSEC chefs made bacon, sausage, eggs, biscuits and gravy and started
serving at 6 a.m. This annual ‘break-feast’ is a way to thank the employees for
the hard work they do and a great way to kick off
the holiday season. Harris and Brad formed the
welcoming committee getting the team in the
holiday spirit by helping serve breakfast to the
hungry Bremerton employees.
After the team was satiated and the award
ceremony concluded, Mr. Leonard asked if
anyone needed additional support or assistance
from the east coast. A lone voice from the
back of the room said, “yes.” “It sure would
be nice if we could get some of that fine North
Carolina ‘Duke brand’ mayonnaise here in
Bremerton.” Imagine the surprise when several
weeks later, a special Christmas
delivery consisting of two jars
of mayonnaise showed up for
John Smith, that lone voice in
the back of the room, just in time
for Christmas. Smith plans on
making coleslaw for everyone to
enjoy and commented that the
random act of kindness raised
Harris Leonard to a new level of appreciation in Bremerton, Wash.
Merry Christmas from the Pacific Northwest! p

At AMSEC we operate in an environment with a myriad of ethical,
legal, and contractual obligations that impact every aspect of
our business. We strive to comply with the letter and spirit of
our obligations in our every day conduct and in our systems
and processes. To meet these obligations and appropriately
manage compliance risks, AMSEC LLC, with the full support
of its corporate parents, the Ingalls Shipbuilding division of
Huntington Ingalls Incorporated (“Ingalls”) and Huntington
Ingalls Industries, Inc. (“HII”), is developing the AMSEC LLC
Annual Compliance Plan. This “Plan”, expected to be rolled out
during 1st quarter 2014, will help AMSEC (and ultimately its
corporate parents) prevent and detect misconduct and remain
a presently responsible government contractor. HII’s Chief
Compliance Officer, Chad Boudreaux, offers additional insight
into the Compliance initiative in the following Q&A.
What are annual compliance plans?
Annual compliance plans are tools we have implemented to
actively manage compliance risks.The compliance organization
oversees the development and implementation of annual
compliance plans at each of the company’s divisions and
subsidiaries and at the company’s Corporate office. Each
compliance plan promotes and centers around eight “core
principles” (e.g., promoting the reporting of misconduct) and
focuses on approximately 45 “core elements” (e.g., proper
time charging, insider trading, etc.). A core element is an area
of compliance, often legal in nature, where the company has
significant risk or where government regulators expect the
company to focus its compliance efforts. Each core element has a
“work plan” that in many instances will touch each person in the
company, especially with respect to training.
How is compliance differentthan ethics?
People often get these terms confused, but the distinction
shouldn’t matter much to our employees. Generally speaking,
compliance is a rules-based concept that addresses certain types
of business risks. Ethics is a values-based concept that helps
to guide employee conduct in the absence of clear rules. HII
has both a compliance program, headed by a chief compliance
officer who works in the Law Department, and a Corporate ethics
program, headed by the business conduct officer who works in
Human Resources and Administration.The compliance program
and the ethics program work hand-in-glove to focus on ethical
conduct and compliance with the law. One program cannot be
effective without the other.
You mentioned “present responsibility”What does
that mean?
Being presently responsible means a contractor meets the
standards required to do business with the federal government.
To be presently responsible, a contractor must not only have the
resources needed to do the job—money, people, equipment,
etc.—the contractor must also have a satisfactory record of
integrity and business conduct. If a contractor lacks integrity
and ethical business practices, then the government can debar
the contractor from all contracting and/or suspend all of the
contractor’s current contracts. If I could use a sports analogy: It’s
like a college football program being sanctioned by the NCAA for
a serious rules violation.You can’t be a national champion if you
aren’t allowed to play.
a message fromthe president
DECEMBER 2013
amsec
What arethe company’s most significant compliance
risks?
The company’s risk profile changes over time. Much depends
on internal factors, such as the nature of our business; much
depends on external factors, such as the government’s
enforcement trends. Currently, we are focusing attention on
proper timekeeping.Timekeeping is an area that touches each
employee.The proper recording and charging of each employee’s
time is critical. Improperly recording and charging time, if
intentional, could result in criminal and civil penalties for the
company and for the employee who mischarged their time.
If I’m an individual contributor,why should I care
about compliance andthe compliance program?
The answer is the same for any employee as it is for our
president and CEO: We are a company whose core values include
integrity and honesty, and each of us committed to those values
when we agreed to work here. It takes years of honest and hard
work for a company to establish a good reputation, but it only
takes one incident by one employee to ruin that reputation.
Each employee should care about compliance because he or
she will be held accountable for behaving with integrity and
honesty and following the rules. Not too long ago, one of our
welding inspectors was fired, arrested and is now in jail for
falsifying inspection reports. More recently, the law required
that we disclose to the government the names of those who
may have knowingly mischarged their time. Many of those
former employees are now prevented from working on any
government contracts, and some have been prosecuted.The
reasons for caring about compliance are many. We look forward
to continuing our work to help every HII employee do the hard
stuff “right.”
What doesthe chief compliance officer (CCO) do?
I oversee and coordinate the company’s compliance program,
which has two primary functions.The first is to equip and
empower employees to prevent and detect misconduct.The
compliance organization is a tool available to employees to get
their job done the right way.The second is to help the company
maintain its “present responsibility” as a government contractor.
I also act as the face of the company to regulators when the
government is interested in the company’s compliance efforts.
There are many other facets to the job, but those are my primary
focus. When we talk about roles and responsibilities of the CCO,
it’s important to note what I do not do. I do not replace any
employee’s current compliance responsibilities. Everyone who
works for HII has a responsibility to be in compliance with our
policies and procedures and applicable laws.The compliance
organization is one tool to help you do your job.

Corporate offices inVa. More
than 300 employees participated
in the cultural event. There
were promotional items and
prizes and a bountiful display of

In a letter of appreciation below, Military Sealift Command (MSC),
Rear Admiral Jackson thanked Bert Marsh and AMSEC for the
support in hiring reservists and the support in the deployment of
Gall Loop (Petty Officer First Class) as he served his Navy Reserve
Duty as a member of one of the MSC Cargo Afloat RigTeams.
Congratulations to Brian Plackett! He was presented a PMOTAP
award for his outstanding efforts and noteworthy contributions as
a team leader and technical advisor to the fleet for Norfolk Ship
Support Activity (NSSA) code 243. His trusted dynamic technical
services and superb support is sought out by our customers,
partners and fellow employees. In this position he is recognized
for being sought out as a team leader in time of real need. Brian’s
untiring efforts, motivation and positive attitude are examples of the
highest standards of performance on which AMSEC was founded.
Recently, Brian was selected to lead a team in support of certifying
the Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) system. This was the
first time NSSA
had been tasked
with certification
requirements for
this system.
The certification
prior to the sea
inspections
revealed multiple
problems and
made the task
even more
complicated
than anticipated.
Placket stepped
up to the plate
and took control
as the team lead
and provided
excellent support
to the ship and
SUPSHIP Newport News. AMSEC received phone calls from
code 243 personnel expounding on how well Placket performed
his role as team lead for AFFF system. It was stated that he was
completely focused, knowledgeable, engaged and articulated
in a professional manner throughout the five-days of sea trials
under some very strenuous and frustrating conditions. Placket
was a total team player in addition to being the team lead; he was
always on station and lending not only interference support but
technical assistance as well. Email from the code manager praised
Mr. Plackett’s leadership on this complicated process. He stated,
“Please express our appreciation to AMSEC for providing the much
needed talent to lead the way at the last minute and for what turned
out to be an extraordinary visit.The number of discrepancies, the
level of crew knowledge, combined with a new SUPSHIP team and
doing this during sea trial vice PSA where the emphasis was on
the propulsion system, all contributed to this being a more difficult,
more challenging and more complex visit than would normally be
expected. Even with these challenges, the team managed to get
them to certification status.”
Mr. Plackett’s leadership in this endeavor was outstanding. No one
can be more proud of their accomplishments then to have their
peers report and provide praise for their efforts. One of the team
members stated to the code manager “It was a pleasure to have
Brian as our lead and I would support his leadership on any follow-
on CVN AFFF assessments in the future.”
Well done Brian! p

As you can tell from the message below, the visit went very
well. Stacy stepped up to the challenge without one hint of
reservation. By doing so, he also helped the branch achieve
success with execution of the NSSA AFFF team for what proved
to be a very difficult
visit on the same
ship.”
Please pass along
to Gil and AMSEC
- thanks once again
to the AMSEC team
providing such great
talent with high
work ethics - Vr,
Dennis B.”
As a result of his
continuing tradition
of excellence and
his positive can do
attitude once again
providing to our
customer another
example of Quality
People Providing
Quality Service, Stacy
was awarded a cash award and a AMSEC jacket for his selection
as Employee of the Month.
Great Job Stacy! p
Congratulations to Mark Kipps for 15 years of dedicated service in the Pacific Northwest!
Mark Kipps received kudos from Hap Chester, October 5, congratulating him on his 15 year
Anniversary with AMSEC. In his correspondence, Chester noted, “An email doesn’t do
justice for all of the hard work you have done for AMSEC, and I can’t thank you in person, but
regardless, I wanted to sayThankYou for your service.”
“Everyone knows how important your work is, not only as the Division Manager for Fleet
Technical Services, but also as the un-elected ‘Mayor of Bremerton’. Everything AMSEC does
in the PNW touches you, and vice versa. Your commitment to the Puget Sound Ship Repair
Association and many other local business organizations helps to keep all of us connected
and our voices heard.”
“Also, we are all aware of the camaraderie within your PNW workforce, no matter which
AMSEC organization they may work for. It is truly great to have you on the team, and we all
look forward to working with you for many more years to come.” p

Congratulations to StacyWilliams! He was presented a PMO
Employee of the Month award for the month of September 2013
for his outstanding efforts and noteworthy contributions as a
technical advisor to the fleet for Norfolk Ship Support Activity
(NSSA) code 243.
During the month of September, Stacy finished an assignment
to provide on-site support to NSSA Code 243 as a Magazine
Sprinkler Systems and Ship board Firefighting Systems
inspector. Stacy along with one other inspector was assigned
to perform magazine sprinkler inspections on the USS
THEODORE ROOSEVELT (CVN-71). At the last minute a
reassignment caused his co-worker to be redirected to another
task.This left only one person to accomplish what is normally a
TWO person task on a ship of this size and complexity.
A magazine certification is required prior to ammo on loads and
ship deployment. In order to support this requirement, Stacy
accomplished the testing and inspections of some forty five
magazines and spaces on the ship. His ability and dedication
was recognized by the ship and the NSSA branch manager.
Stacy’s efforts resulted in the recommendations from NSSA to
the ISSC to grant CVN-71 full Re-certification for the Magazine
Sprinkler Systems as referenced in paragraph 2.a of the
SHIPSUPPORT Activity Message to COMNAVAIRLANT.
NSSA code 243 branch manager, Mr. Balsly sent the following
to the COR for our task: “Karen, before all is said and done with
this task, I would like to pass out an 'Atta boy' to Mr. Williams.
At the last minute, we had to shift Mr. Roth over to the AFFF
team due to unexpected illness of a team member. Because of
that, Stacy had to do the normal 2 man visit by himself.

Roger Adams could not be more proud of his team than he was on November 7, 2013.
At the head quarters of Coastal Riverine GroupTWO (CRG2), Commodore Diehl, was very proud and pleased to present the AMSEC
CRG2 Field ServiceTeam with a Letter of Meritorious Service. The actions of the team from June 3 through June 25, 2013, exemplified
the company’s commitment to providing “Quality People,
Providing Quality Service”. During this time, AMSEC deployed
four members of the team to Djibouti, Jebel Ali, Fujairah and
Kuwait.
The following is an excerpt from CAPT E.W. Diehl’s statement,
“…[they] consistently performed their demanding duties in
an exemplary and highly professional manner. Your team
professionally conducted boat assessments and repairs on
32 coastal patrol boats deployed in support of Commander,
Task Force 56, forward deployed coastal riverine operation
readiness. The field service team was extremely professional
and went above and beyond to ensure a thorough inspection
was conducted and repairs were completed to the eight boats in
Fujairah and Kuwait, 10 work boats in Jebel Ali and six boats in
Djibouti, Africa. Each member worked extended hours in order
to ensure all discrepancies were indentified and rectified. Your
constant commitment and ability to complete tasks in a superior
manner is a direct reflection of the selfless devotion to duty...”
AMSEC President, Harris Leonard also wrote, “Please pass along my thanks to your folks supporting the Coastal Riverine Group
Two Expeditionary Equipment support contract during the recent deployment. As noted in the citation, I along with all of AMSEC
employees applaud your team and are very proud of the “selfless devotion to duty exhibited…!”
The team was headed by Patrick Kampman, with Billy Fowler as a mechanic, Michael Cain as a
welder and Charles Gorrell providing QA support.The traveling team was supported prior to, during
and after the trip, by the remaining members of the team who help with distance support, parts
and other support that was necessary to make this trip and every trip a success. “Over the years
the work you have done has captured the attention of the parent command NECC, Combatant
Craft Division and Coastal Riverine Group ONE.You have set the standard by which others are now
measured, be proud of what you do, be vigilant with your quality, be safe in your actions and know
that you are team who is second to none,” said Roger Adams, AMSEC program manager. p

Terrence Lee Boone retired after nearly 27 years of service to AMSEC on the CEMAT
contract. He was a valued member of the HULL GROUP where he taught young
Naval Firefighters how to
properly maintain and repair
all facets of damage control
equipment. His specialty
was formal classroom
training where his real
talents shone through. He
left such an impression on
the sailors he taught, that
years later, either walking
on the ship or shopping at
the commissary, he’d be
approached by one of his
former students saying how
much they learned from Mr.
Terry (as he was affectionly
known by the sailors).
Terry and his wife, Karen,
will be retiring to their farm
in North Carolina where they raise fainting goats, miniature horses and chickens. He
will have plenty of time now to ride his motorcycle and devote his time to the local
Ruritan club, where he was just voted in as president. A true honor and one he is
extremely proud of.
Terry will be missed by his AMSEC family as well as his customer. p

On September 25, 2013, an AMSEC employee, Sean Marshall, and a Raytheon employee,
RaulToledo, were involved in a fairly serious safety incident onboard USS Milius
(DDG 69).
A sailor was walking across the flight deck and fell through an
open hatch.The sailor was able to catch himself on the ladder of the second open hatch
which resulted in a dislocated shoulder and possible broken ankle. The sailor was
dangling through the hatch, headfirst. If he had fallen through the second hatch, he
would have fallen several more decks as the ship was taking-on supplies and had all of
the access hatches open. Raul and Sean were testing land drops in the area and saw the
incident. Raul grabbed the sailor, who was screaming for help, pulled him to safety and
calmed him down until help arrived.
Sean ran to the Quarter Deck to inform the Duty Officer so
they could send a Corpsman. p
