Mace family, it is with a somewhat heavy heart but with great pride in our team that
I submit my final installment for our squadron “BAM Gram” as the command prepares for
the upcoming deployment cycle and we near our 1 May 2015 change of command. As a
fitting capstone to the hard work of our sailors over the course of the last year, the Royal
Maces were recently recognized by Commander, Naval Air Forces Pacific as the recipients
of the 2014 Battle “E” award from among all U.S. Pacific Fleet FA-18E/F squadrons. This
is the top-level and most holistic of a variety of annual awards for which U.S. Navy units
compete, and highlights the sustained efforts the entire squadron team working together
toward our collective mission throughout a demanding deployment year. Selection for the
award is based on a broad array of metrics that are measured across all VFA squadrons.
These metrics represent a statistical assessment of the performance of diverse tasks by
squadron personnel in all the command’s departments: Operations, Maintenance,
Administrative, and Safety.
The cornerstone of any aviation squadron, and the majority of its personnel, are the professional
“maintainers” of the squadron’s Maintenance Department. Accordingly, the efforts of the squadron’s Maintenance
Department represent the most significant component within the Battle “E” metrics. The Royal Maces are
fortunate to have the most capable and effective team of senior maintenance leadership with whom I’ve ever had
the pleasure to work. Led by Maintenance Officers LCDR Peter “Sosaj” McMorrow and subsequently LCDR Andy
“Bosco” McKee, maintenance professionals LT Matthew “Purv” Purvis, CWO3 “B” Ballard, and Master Chief
George Nieder served as the backbone of the squadron’s Maintenance Department, backed up by the most
capable Chiefs’ Mess and First Class Petty Officers’ Association you’ll find within Naval Aviation. The Battle “E”
recognizes the work done by squadron members across all ranks and experience levels, and superb junior Maces
like Royal Mace of the Year AM3 Christopher Hoskins and Plane Captain of the Year ADAN John Nguyen have
also been vital to the squadron’s success. The Maces’ superb results in last year’s Commander, Naval Air Forces
Pacific Aviation Maintenance Inspection (AMI), coupled with the exceptional readiness levels of our squadron
aircraft, were key factors among many in the squadron’s selection for the Battle “E”, and serve as demonstrable
products of the Royal Mace maintenance department’s sustained superior performance.
The most important components of a squadron are not the aircraft however, but the squadron’s people,
and many aspects of the performance of an Administrative Department in supporting a command’s personnel are
as well included in Battle “E” metrics. From retention statistics to medical readiness levels and advancement
exam performance to name a few, the squadron benefits from the efforts of an exceptionally talented and sailor-
focused group of leaders. Command Master Chief Rudy Johnson sets a superb example for conscientious
leadership, commitment to Navy Core values, and taking care of Royal Mace sailors. He is supported in this by
the outstanding team in our squadron’s Administrative Department, led by LCDR Blaine “Coco” Felloney, with
ENS Jeremy Campbell, YNC (and Warrant Officer-select) Matt Dale, and our stellar Command Career Counselor,
NC1 Jennifer Vasquez. The squadron’s efforts in this realm are assisted by two superb Ombudsmen who

generously volunteer their valuable time to help support our sailors and their families, and my thanks and those of
all the Maces go out to Roxy Glodowsky and Yuko Palmer for their selfless service.
The efforts of the squadron’s pilots are as well measured within Battle “E” metrics, and Royal Mace
aviators set the pace in deployed operations over the past year. Their accomplishments include spearheading
development of Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTP’s) within the air wing through initiatives led by Mace
XO CDR Adrian “Boa” Calder and Mace Training Officer LT Mike “Sip” Miller, and in professionally conducting
carrier-based operations as attested by the squadron’s receipt of the last two consecutive CVW-5 “Top Hook”
awards for landing performance. Mace pilots’ efforts over the deployment cycle were orchestrated by the
squadron’s Operations Department, led for much of the year by LCDR Justin “Jugs” Halligan, recently recognized
by Commander, Naval Air Forces as Pilot of the Year from amongst all pilots in the Pacific Fleet, a tremendous
achievement. The squadron’s Landing Signal Officers, LT David “Tandy” Tarr, LT Taylor “Betsy” Oakes, LT Kyle
“LAB” Matson, and LT Andy “Smug” Moore helped ensure the air wing’s safe conduct of flight operations
underway, and coached Mace pilots on ball-flying techniques to diminish risk in the inherently hazardous business
of landing FA-18E’s on the aircraft carrier during typhoon-season weather across the Western Pacific, both day
and night.
None of these accomplishments matter if the squadron fails in its fundamental responsibility of preserving
the well-being of squadron personnel and equipment. The squadron’s Safety Department, led by Safety Officer
LCDR Blaine “Coco” Felloney and later LCDR Kenneth “SLAB” Hollon, supported by LT Jeff “Boo-Boo” Bolstad
and LT Billy “>Thrust<” Case, worked hard to ensure squadron personnel mitigated risk across their many
undertakings, both on and off-duty. As a measure of the Maces’ commitment to a culture of safety and risk
management over many years, the squadron recently surpassed 121,000 flight hours free of a serious “Class ‘A’”
aviation mishap. The Safety Department worked diligently with fellow departments to set the squadron up for
success in its recent demanding air-to-ground training detachment to Andersen Air Force Base, Guam. Flying to
and from Guam via Iwoto/Iwo Jima, squadron personnel were able to train with a wide range of air-to-ground
ordnance to hone combat skills and refine tactical employment methods. A Bravo Zulu goes out to the
detachment Officer-in-Charge, LT Taylor “Betsy” Oakes, for a superb job in planning and executing the complex
detachment in consonance with a hand-picked team selected from among all the squadron’s departments. BZ as
well to LT Jeff “Boo-Boo” Bolstad, who masterfully organized a complex Dissimilar Air Combat Training (DACT)
detachment with the Japan Air Self-Defense Force (JASDF), in which Mace pilots briefed, flew and debriefed with
counterparts in JASDF F-15J’s in Okinawa, contributing to our readiness to undertake combined operations with
our JASDF counterparts.
As the Maces look forward to the challenges and adventures of the coming year, I will soon hand the
reins to our squadron XO, CDR Adrian “Boa” Calder. A Strike-Fighter Tactics Instructor with vast experience and
expertise spanning combat in multiple theaters and service as an instructor at the Naval Strike-Air Warfare Center
in Fallon, Nevada, where he oversaw Naval Aviation’s most realistic combat training, Boa will provide a steady
hand on the helm as the squadron moves forward to meet the challenges of service in its forward-deployed
environs across the Asia-Pacific region. My wife Laura and I send our sincere thanks to all the Sailors, family and
friends of the Maces for your hard work and your unwavering support over the course of our tenure with the
squadron. You make Royal Mace Commanding Officer the best job in the Navy, and I’m truly grateful for the
opportunity to serve with you. Arigato gozaimasu, and MIYF!

Greetings Mace Sailors and Families!
We recently returned from our annual Strike training detachment in Guam! The OPS
/ Maintenance team was firing on all cylinders, providing excellent training
opportunities and aircraft for both aircrew and maintenance technicians to maintain
their tradecraft skills. With the exception of a CAT 1 typhoon that slightly interrupted
our schedule, we managed to maintain combat proficiency in the excellent range

facilities while enjoying some of the activities around the island. Congratulations to LTs Moore and Matson who
completed Section lead qualification milestones along with LT Spencer who was able to complete his Section
Lead syllabus prior to embarking on the training detachment. We also got a chance to expend over 47,000
pounds of conventional inert and live ordnance, providing our ordnance technicians with opportunities to hone
their skills and increase proficiency. The squadron flew 175 training sorties and 313 flight hours and was an
extremely successful end-to-end test of every system and manpower asset in the command.
In April, the squadron had the opportunity to take a well-deserved leave block and is now re-focusing on our May
Iwoto FCLP detachment and deployment. On May 1, we will bid farewell to our Commanding Officer, CDR
Spencer “Soupbone” Abbot. His diligence in posturing the command for long term health and success will pay
dividends well into the future of the command and the Air Wing as a whole. CDR Abbot will move to Washington,
DC and be well employed within the OPNAV N80 spaces at the Pentagon. As we bid him farewell, we welcome
aboard the incoming Prospective Executive Officer to take my place as I ‘fleet up’ as the Commanding Officer in
place of CDR Abbot. Joining us as our newest addition to the Mace family is our PXO, CDR Dan “DAD” Cochran.
CDR Cochran is coming from Pax River, MD where he served as a Test Pilot School flight instructor and program
manager. This will be his second tour in the FDNF. A hearty ‘Welcome Aboard’ to the Cochran family.
Command Master Chief Johnson and I just returned from a visit to Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni, Japan,
where we spoke with Marine Corps leadership and toured our brand new facilities. There was a flurry of
construction activity in every corner of the air station. The number of simultaneous projects currently in
production are unprecedented in the recent history of the Department of Defense. It was truly remarkable. We
visited brand new housing units for all pay grades, a newly constructed hangar facility, four new schools and a
modern medical center in full production mode. We got a chance to meet with base leadership and were given
the opportunity to provide important feedback regarding detailed transition planning for the squadron’s move in
2017. The squadron will conduct a ‘Town Hall’ meeting during the October interim break where Marine Corps
leadership will be available to provide project updates and answer any questions that you or your family members
may have. The ‘Town Hall’ meeting will take place at Cinema 77 at a time to optimize participation. The trip was
extremely informative and we promise more Iwakuni transition information to follow over the coming months.
MIYF!
CMC’s Corner
Maces family & friends, welcome once again to the CMC's Corner.
It's that time again and deployment is on the horizon.
We have a lot of work to do to get ready for this year's deployment so please bear with us as
we may have to work some extra hours to have the jets ready to deploy.
Please work together as families to ensure all the pre-deployment items are
taken care of: Some of those items would be: Wills, or updating your wills,
Powers of Attorney, car re-registration, insurance, road tax, school re-registration and ensuring
your finances are in order. We will discuss a lot of this stuff during our pre-deployment briefing
that will take place on 6 May 14 from 1200-1500.
The deployment is going to be longer than usual this year because of the Hull swap and it is important that you work out a
good communication strategy because the extra time away will definitely cause more stress. Having a plan to deal with the
longer separation will help us deal better with the stress and prevent unwanted arguments.
I would like to take the time to welcome our newest Ombudsman Yuko Palmer to the team. Being an Ombudsman is a tough
but important job and I am happy to have her on our team. If you were unaware, the Ombudsman is your direct link to the
Commanding Officer. I would highly encourage you to like the VFA-27 Ombudsman Facebook page. Roxy and Yuko post a
lot of valuable information on the page about events going on around the base as well as unclassified squadron updates when
we are deployed.
If you are interested in volunteering to teach English the squadron has a partnership with the Terao Elementary school. While
we are in port many of our Sailors spend a few hours each week volunteering at the school. When we deploy the school will
4
need more volunteers to take the place of our Sailors and your help would be greatly appreciated. If you are interested please
contact me at rudy.johnson@fe.navy.mil. Finally, I am always here to help any Sailor or Family member so please use me to
the fullest. Stay safe and take care of each other.

ROYAL MACES AWARDED 2014 CNAP BATTLE”E”
LT Alex Islin, VFA-27 Public Affairs Officer
Strike Fighter Squadron TWO SEVEN (VFA-27), the “Royal Maces,” of Carrier Air Wing FIVE (CVW-5)
based at Naval Air Facility Atsugi, Japan, were recently recognized by Commander, Naval Air Forces Pacific
(COMNAVAIRPAC) as the recipients of the 2014 COMNAVAIRPAC Battle “E” award, chosen from among all U.S.
Pacific Fleet FA-18E and FA-18F squadrons. The Battle “E” award is presented annually to the squadron that
achieves the highest standards of “cost-wise and performance readiness” over the course of the year, and
recognizes “a unit’s training and operational achievements,” based on a competitive assessment across a wide
range of metrics.
To begin the year’s deployment cycle, in spring 2014 the Royal Maces carried out a demanding
transpacific training detachment to Fallon, Nevada, with squadron aircraft and personnel voyaging to the
continental United States from Japan via Wake Island and Hawaii, with the assistance of U.S. Air Force KC-10
and KC-135 “big wing” tankers. While in Fallon, Nevada, the squadron had the opportunity undertake highly
realistic combat training with other Carrier Air Wing FIVE squadrons, along with personnel from Strike-Fighter
Weapons School Atlantic and the Naval Strike Air Warfare Center (NSAWC), utilizing the superb training facilities
of the Fallon Range Training Complex (FRTC).
Soon after returning to their home base of Naval Air Facility Atusgi, Japan, the Royal Maces began
preparations for deployment aboard USS GEORGE WASHINGTON (CVN 73). The squadron’s pilots, and a
detachment of maintenance personnel, conducted Field Carrier Landing Practice (FCLP) flights at Iwoto, formerly
known as Iwo Jima, to prepare for the challenges of landing the squadron’s FA-18E Super Hornets aboard the
aircraft carrier.
During the squadron’s summer deployment period, the Royal Maces executed a rigorous schedule of
exercises and flight operations throughout the Western Pacific region. The squadron also participated in port
calls in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Busan during the “summer patrol.” During a port visit to Busan, South Korea,
the squadron organized a visit to the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) north of Seoul, where Royal Mace Sailors were
able to gain a unique perspective on the history and geography of the Korean Peninsula. The summer
deployment period wrapped up with a port visit to Sasebo, Japan, where many family members of squadron
personnel embarked aboard USS GEORGE WASHINGTON (CVN 73) for a “Tiger Cruise” enroute to the ship’s
homeport of Yokosuka, Japan.
6
Following a brief period at home in Japan, the squadron returned to the aircraft carrier for “fall patrol,”
during which the squadron participated in VALIANT SHIELD, the largest U.S.-only joint exercise held within the
Asia-Pacific region. The Royal Maces honed combat skills alongside U.S. Air Force F-22 Raptors and F-15
Eagles, U.S. Marine Corps FA-18s, many other Navy aircraft and ships, and numerous other platforms from
across the military services in a highly complex and demanding exercise. Squadron sailors also had the
opportunity to visit the U.S. territory of Guam during two fall deployment port calls, first following VALIANT
SHIELD, and then again later in the fall patrol.
Throughout the deployment year’s port calls across the Asia-Pacific, and continuing upon the squadron’s
return to Atsugi, Royal Mace sailors set a superb example for professionalism as “Navy Ambassadors Abroad,”
demonstrating impeccable conduct over the course of the year. To assist Mace leaders in diminishing risk of
liberty incidents in the high-visibility Asia-Pacific region where the squadron deploys, the Royal Maces devised a
“Personnel Risk Assessment Program” based on the well-established “Human Factors” risk assessment process
mandated for Navy pilots. The program was lauded by Naval Aviation Safety Center inspectors on a recent visit
to Naval Air Facility Atsugi, and has subsequently been adopted as a fleet “best practice” for managing and
diminishing “human factor risk” for on or off-duty incidents.
Throughout the deployment year, the squadron achieved unmatched operational and maintenance
excellence through innovative leadership, and rigorous focus on the fundamentals of aviation maintenance,
operations and safety. The squadron’s maintenance department demonstrated unparalleled skill, knowledge,
and dedication to professional and safe maintenance practices by achieving one of the top results ever recorded
during an Aviation Maintenance Inspection (AMI), the top-level maintenance inspection for U.S. Navy squadrons,
conducted by a team from the Naval Air Forces Pacific headquarters. VFA-27 Maintenance Officer LCDR Andy
McKee noted “I've never observed maintenance inspection results of higher caliber in my naval career. It was
truly a team effort, and I could not be more proud to serve with this remarkable group of maintenance
professionals.” Commander, Carrier Air Wing FIVE (CVW-5), CAPT William Koyama, awarded the squadron’s
maintenance department the air wing’s coveted “Golden Wrench” award for two consecutive quarters in 2014 as
the top maintenance department in CVW-5. The squadron was also ranked #1 for fuel efficiency out of the 26 FA-
18E/F squadrons in the Pacific Fleet by Commander, Naval Air Forces Pacific’s under the Naval Aviation Energy
Conservation Program (Air ENCON).
Royal Mace pilots demonstrated their tactical prowess and professionalism at carrier operations
throughout the deployment year, earning the air wing’s “Top Hook” award for the top landing performance for two
consecutive line periods. Royal Mace Commanding Officer CDR Spencer Abbot, Executive Officer CDR Adrian
Calder, Operations Officer LCDR Justin Halligan, Head Landing Signal Officer LT David Tarr, and Aircraft Division
Officer LT Jeffrey Spencer all received one or more “Top Ten” awards for overall landing grade average from
among all pilots in the air wing over the course of the deployment cycle. LT Bryan Jacobs was also recognized as
a “Top Nugget” from among all first-deployment pilots in the air wing. With their high GPA and boarding rate, the
Royal Maces received the CVW-5 “Top Hook” award by more than a slim margin on both occasions. CAPT
William Koyama, Commander, Carrier Air Wing FIVE, in presenting the second “Top Hook” award to the squadron
remarked, “This award is not earned just by the best, most experienced ball flyers in the squadron-it is earned by
the team mentoring and ensuring reliable competence in the least experienced, and least gifted ball flyers. It is
earned by a squadron that does what it takes to make their lowest common denominator excellent by any other
7
standard.” LT David Tarr, the Head Landing Signals Officer for the Royal Maces, worked hard to ensure
everyone in the squadron consistently flew safely and predictably, offering training and debriefing after every
pass. According to LT Tarr, “our junior pilots have been the difference-makers in winning the Top Hook award.
It’s easy to get discouraged after having a few bad passes, but we take it seriously and work hard to learn from
each landing. As a result of that commitment, every single Mace pilot had grades higher than the air wing
average. That speaks volumes about our team, and helps diminish risk in the inherently hazardous business of
landing jets on aircraft carriers. ” As a capstone to the superb performance of Royal Mace pilots through the
deployment year, VFA-27 Operations Officer LCDR Justin Halligan was chosen from among all U.S. Navy pilots
in the Pacific Fleet for the 2014 Commander, Naval Air Forces Pacific Pilot of the Year Award.
The squadron ended the 2014 deployment cycle aboard USS GEORGE WASHINGTON (CVN 73) with
exercise KEEN SWORD, an opportunity to refine tactical skills and practice interoperability with counterparts from
the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF). At home at Naval Air Facility Atsugi, the Royal Maces
continued to work innovatively to further strengthen their relationship with the Japan Self-Defense Force, and with
the squadron’s host community in Japan. The Royal Maces organized a combined training detachment with the
Japan Air-Self Defense Force 204
th
Fighter Squadron, an F-15J Eagle squadron based in Naha, Okinawa. Royal
Mace pilots briefed, flew, and debriefed directly with their Japanese counterparts, enhancing the two squadrons’
readiness to operate together should that be required in a contingency or crisis. The squadron has also devised
and implemented the Navy’s first foreign language training program for a deployed carrier air wing, partnering with
the Navy’s Center for Language, Regional Expertise, and Culture (CLREC) to offer language classes in Mandarin
Chinese and Korean to air wing sailors when in Atsugi, and Japanese classes both in Atsugi and aboard USS
GEORGE WASHINGTON (CVN 73). The squadron additionally initiated a school partnership with Terao
Elementary School, providing squadron sailors and spouses the opportunity to teach English classes to students
in a Japanese elementary school in the local community near Naval Air Facility Atsugi.
The 2014 COMNAVAIRPAC Battle “E” award highlights a very successful deployment cycle for the
permanently forward-deployed VFA-27 Royal Maces. Royal Mace Commanding Officer, CDR Spencer Abbot,
noted “Every member of the Royal Mace team has worked tirelessly to ensure the highest possible combat
readiness through an extremely demanding deployment cycle that requires the squadron to deploy aboard USS
GEORGE WASHINGTON (CVN 73) for a considerable portion of every year. I am immensely proud of the
Sailors of the Royal Maces, who have set the standard for professionalism, teamwork, and commitment to
excellence in support of security and stability in the Asia-Pacific region.”

VFA-27_April 2015_BAM Gram

  • 1. Skipper’s Domain Mace family, it is with a somewhat heavy heart but with great pride in our team that I submit my final installment for our squadron “BAM Gram” as the command prepares for the upcoming deployment cycle and we near our 1 May 2015 change of command. As a fitting capstone to the hard work of our sailors over the course of the last year, the Royal Maces were recently recognized by Commander, Naval Air Forces Pacific as the recipients of the 2014 Battle “E” award from among all U.S. Pacific Fleet FA-18E/F squadrons. This is the top-level and most holistic of a variety of annual awards for which U.S. Navy units compete, and highlights the sustained efforts the entire squadron team working together toward our collective mission throughout a demanding deployment year. Selection for the award is based on a broad array of metrics that are measured across all VFA squadrons. These metrics represent a statistical assessment of the performance of diverse tasks by squadron personnel in all the command’s departments: Operations, Maintenance, Administrative, and Safety. The cornerstone of any aviation squadron, and the majority of its personnel, are the professional “maintainers” of the squadron’s Maintenance Department. Accordingly, the efforts of the squadron’s Maintenance Department represent the most significant component within the Battle “E” metrics. The Royal Maces are fortunate to have the most capable and effective team of senior maintenance leadership with whom I’ve ever had the pleasure to work. Led by Maintenance Officers LCDR Peter “Sosaj” McMorrow and subsequently LCDR Andy “Bosco” McKee, maintenance professionals LT Matthew “Purv” Purvis, CWO3 “B” Ballard, and Master Chief George Nieder served as the backbone of the squadron’s Maintenance Department, backed up by the most capable Chiefs’ Mess and First Class Petty Officers’ Association you’ll find within Naval Aviation. The Battle “E” recognizes the work done by squadron members across all ranks and experience levels, and superb junior Maces like Royal Mace of the Year AM3 Christopher Hoskins and Plane Captain of the Year ADAN John Nguyen have also been vital to the squadron’s success. The Maces’ superb results in last year’s Commander, Naval Air Forces Pacific Aviation Maintenance Inspection (AMI), coupled with the exceptional readiness levels of our squadron aircraft, were key factors among many in the squadron’s selection for the Battle “E”, and serve as demonstrable products of the Royal Mace maintenance department’s sustained superior performance. The most important components of a squadron are not the aircraft however, but the squadron’s people, and many aspects of the performance of an Administrative Department in supporting a command’s personnel are as well included in Battle “E” metrics. From retention statistics to medical readiness levels and advancement exam performance to name a few, the squadron benefits from the efforts of an exceptionally talented and sailor- focused group of leaders. Command Master Chief Rudy Johnson sets a superb example for conscientious leadership, commitment to Navy Core values, and taking care of Royal Mace sailors. He is supported in this by the outstanding team in our squadron’s Administrative Department, led by LCDR Blaine “Coco” Felloney, with ENS Jeremy Campbell, YNC (and Warrant Officer-select) Matt Dale, and our stellar Command Career Counselor, NC1 Jennifer Vasquez. The squadron’s efforts in this realm are assisted by two superb Ombudsmen who CMC’s Corner APRIL 2015Vol. 6 / No. 1 MIYF BAM Gram CDR C. Spencer Abbot “Soupbone” Commanding Officer
  • 2. 2 CDR Adrian “Boa” Calder Executive Officer generously volunteer their valuable time to help support our sailors and their families, and my thanks and those of all the Maces go out to Roxy Glodowsky and Yuko Palmer for their selfless service. The efforts of the squadron’s pilots are as well measured within Battle “E” metrics, and Royal Mace aviators set the pace in deployed operations over the past year. Their accomplishments include spearheading development of Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTP’s) within the air wing through initiatives led by Mace XO CDR Adrian “Boa” Calder and Mace Training Officer LT Mike “Sip” Miller, and in professionally conducting carrier-based operations as attested by the squadron’s receipt of the last two consecutive CVW-5 “Top Hook” awards for landing performance. Mace pilots’ efforts over the deployment cycle were orchestrated by the squadron’s Operations Department, led for much of the year by LCDR Justin “Jugs” Halligan, recently recognized by Commander, Naval Air Forces as Pilot of the Year from amongst all pilots in the Pacific Fleet, a tremendous achievement. The squadron’s Landing Signal Officers, LT David “Tandy” Tarr, LT Taylor “Betsy” Oakes, LT Kyle “LAB” Matson, and LT Andy “Smug” Moore helped ensure the air wing’s safe conduct of flight operations underway, and coached Mace pilots on ball-flying techniques to diminish risk in the inherently hazardous business of landing FA-18E’s on the aircraft carrier during typhoon-season weather across the Western Pacific, both day and night. None of these accomplishments matter if the squadron fails in its fundamental responsibility of preserving the well-being of squadron personnel and equipment. The squadron’s Safety Department, led by Safety Officer LCDR Blaine “Coco” Felloney and later LCDR Kenneth “SLAB” Hollon, supported by LT Jeff “Boo-Boo” Bolstad and LT Billy “>Thrust<” Case, worked hard to ensure squadron personnel mitigated risk across their many undertakings, both on and off-duty. As a measure of the Maces’ commitment to a culture of safety and risk management over many years, the squadron recently surpassed 121,000 flight hours free of a serious “Class ‘A’” aviation mishap. The Safety Department worked diligently with fellow departments to set the squadron up for success in its recent demanding air-to-ground training detachment to Andersen Air Force Base, Guam. Flying to and from Guam via Iwoto/Iwo Jima, squadron personnel were able to train with a wide range of air-to-ground ordnance to hone combat skills and refine tactical employment methods. A Bravo Zulu goes out to the detachment Officer-in-Charge, LT Taylor “Betsy” Oakes, for a superb job in planning and executing the complex detachment in consonance with a hand-picked team selected from among all the squadron’s departments. BZ as well to LT Jeff “Boo-Boo” Bolstad, who masterfully organized a complex Dissimilar Air Combat Training (DACT) detachment with the Japan Air Self-Defense Force (JASDF), in which Mace pilots briefed, flew and debriefed with counterparts in JASDF F-15J’s in Okinawa, contributing to our readiness to undertake combined operations with our JASDF counterparts. As the Maces look forward to the challenges and adventures of the coming year, I will soon hand the reins to our squadron XO, CDR Adrian “Boa” Calder. A Strike-Fighter Tactics Instructor with vast experience and expertise spanning combat in multiple theaters and service as an instructor at the Naval Strike-Air Warfare Center in Fallon, Nevada, where he oversaw Naval Aviation’s most realistic combat training, Boa will provide a steady hand on the helm as the squadron moves forward to meet the challenges of service in its forward-deployed environs across the Asia-Pacific region. My wife Laura and I send our sincere thanks to all the Sailors, family and friends of the Maces for your hard work and your unwavering support over the course of our tenure with the squadron. You make Royal Mace Commanding Officer the best job in the Navy, and I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to serve with you. Arigato gozaimasu, and MIYF! XO’s Alley Greetings Mace Sailors and Families! We recently returned from our annual Strike training detachment in Guam! The OPS / Maintenance team was firing on all cylinders, providing excellent training opportunities and aircraft for both aircrew and maintenance technicians to maintain their tradecraft skills. With the exception of a CAT 1 typhoon that slightly interrupted our schedule, we managed to maintain combat proficiency in the excellent range
  • 3. 3 CMDCM(AW/SW) Rudy Johnson Command Master Chief facilities while enjoying some of the activities around the island. Congratulations to LTs Moore and Matson who completed Section lead qualification milestones along with LT Spencer who was able to complete his Section Lead syllabus prior to embarking on the training detachment. We also got a chance to expend over 47,000 pounds of conventional inert and live ordnance, providing our ordnance technicians with opportunities to hone their skills and increase proficiency. The squadron flew 175 training sorties and 313 flight hours and was an extremely successful end-to-end test of every system and manpower asset in the command. In April, the squadron had the opportunity to take a well-deserved leave block and is now re-focusing on our May Iwoto FCLP detachment and deployment. On May 1, we will bid farewell to our Commanding Officer, CDR Spencer “Soupbone” Abbot. His diligence in posturing the command for long term health and success will pay dividends well into the future of the command and the Air Wing as a whole. CDR Abbot will move to Washington, DC and be well employed within the OPNAV N80 spaces at the Pentagon. As we bid him farewell, we welcome aboard the incoming Prospective Executive Officer to take my place as I ‘fleet up’ as the Commanding Officer in place of CDR Abbot. Joining us as our newest addition to the Mace family is our PXO, CDR Dan “DAD” Cochran. CDR Cochran is coming from Pax River, MD where he served as a Test Pilot School flight instructor and program manager. This will be his second tour in the FDNF. A hearty ‘Welcome Aboard’ to the Cochran family. Command Master Chief Johnson and I just returned from a visit to Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni, Japan, where we spoke with Marine Corps leadership and toured our brand new facilities. There was a flurry of construction activity in every corner of the air station. The number of simultaneous projects currently in production are unprecedented in the recent history of the Department of Defense. It was truly remarkable. We visited brand new housing units for all pay grades, a newly constructed hangar facility, four new schools and a modern medical center in full production mode. We got a chance to meet with base leadership and were given the opportunity to provide important feedback regarding detailed transition planning for the squadron’s move in 2017. The squadron will conduct a ‘Town Hall’ meeting during the October interim break where Marine Corps leadership will be available to provide project updates and answer any questions that you or your family members may have. The ‘Town Hall’ meeting will take place at Cinema 77 at a time to optimize participation. The trip was extremely informative and we promise more Iwakuni transition information to follow over the coming months. MIYF! CMC’s Corner Maces family & friends, welcome once again to the CMC's Corner. It's that time again and deployment is on the horizon. We have a lot of work to do to get ready for this year's deployment so please bear with us as we may have to work some extra hours to have the jets ready to deploy. Please work together as families to ensure all the pre-deployment items are taken care of: Some of those items would be: Wills, or updating your wills, Powers of Attorney, car re-registration, insurance, road tax, school re-registration and ensuring your finances are in order. We will discuss a lot of this stuff during our pre-deployment briefing that will take place on 6 May 14 from 1200-1500. The deployment is going to be longer than usual this year because of the Hull swap and it is important that you work out a good communication strategy because the extra time away will definitely cause more stress. Having a plan to deal with the longer separation will help us deal better with the stress and prevent unwanted arguments. I would like to take the time to welcome our newest Ombudsman Yuko Palmer to the team. Being an Ombudsman is a tough but important job and I am happy to have her on our team. If you were unaware, the Ombudsman is your direct link to the Commanding Officer. I would highly encourage you to like the VFA-27 Ombudsman Facebook page. Roxy and Yuko post a lot of valuable information on the page about events going on around the base as well as unclassified squadron updates when we are deployed. If you are interested in volunteering to teach English the squadron has a partnership with the Terao Elementary school. While we are in port many of our Sailors spend a few hours each week volunteering at the school. When we deploy the school will

Finally, I am always here to help any Sailor or Family member so please use me to the fullest. Stay safe and take care of each other. WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE EXPERIENCE DURING THE 2015 GUAM DETACHMENT? "The absolute best part about Guam Det was the fantastic food. It always brings me back to my island roots, allowing me to reminisce on my time growing up in Hawaii." - LT Billy Case “I really enjoyed snorkeling because it was a nice to see the different variety of fish. The weather to me is nice all year round so being out in Guam’s atmosphere and environment was a big stress reliever.” – ITSN Kyle Baumeister “My favorite experience was getting scuba diver certified and field truck certified. It was an overall great experience for me.” – ATAN Tyler Drake WELCOME MS. YUKO PALMER TO THE OMBUDSMEN TEAM! Hello Maces!!

The Battle “E” award is presented annually to the squadron that achieves the highest standards of “cost-wise and performance readiness” over the course of the year, and recognizes “a unit’s training and operational achievements,” based on a competitive assessment across a wide range of metrics. To begin the year’s deployment cycle, in spring 2014 the Royal Maces carried out a demanding transpacific training detachment to Fallon, Nevada, with squadron aircraft and personnel voyaging to the continental United States from Japan via Wake Island and Hawaii, with the assistance of U.S. Air Force KC-10 and KC-135 “big wing” tankers. While in Fallon, Nevada, the squadron had the opportunity undertake highly realistic combat training with other Carrier Air Wing FIVE squadrons, along with personnel from Strike-Fighter Weapons School Atlantic and the Naval Strike Air Warfare Center (NSAWC), utilizing the superb training facilities of the Fallon Range Training Complex (FRTC). Soon after returning to their home base of Naval Air Facility Atusgi, Japan, the Royal Maces began preparations for deployment aboard USS GEORGE WASHINGTON (CVN 73). The squadron’s pilots, and a detachment of maintenance personnel, conducted Field Carrier Landing Practice (FCLP) flights at Iwoto, formerly known as Iwo Jima, to prepare for the challenges of landing the squadron’s FA-18E Super Hornets aboard the aircraft carrier. During the squadron’s summer deployment period, the Royal Maces executed a rigorous schedule of exercises and flight operations throughout the Western Pacific region. The squadron also participated in port calls in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Busan during the “summer patrol.” During a port visit to Busan, South Korea, the squadron organized a visit to the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) north of Seoul, where Royal Mace Sailors were able to gain a unique perspective on the history and geography of the Korean Peninsula. The summer deployment period wrapped up with a port visit to Sasebo, Japan, where many family members of squadron personnel embarked aboard USS GEORGE WASHINGTON (CVN 73) for a “Tiger Cruise” enroute to the ship’s homeport of Yokosuka, Japan.
  • 6. 6 Following a brief period at home in Japan, the squadron returned to the aircraft carrier for “fall patrol,” during which the squadron participated in VALIANT SHIELD, the largest U.S.-only joint exercise held within the Asia-Pacific region. The Royal Maces honed combat skills alongside U.S. Air Force F-22 Raptors and F-15 Eagles, U.S. Marine Corps FA-18s, many other Navy aircraft and ships, and numerous other platforms from across the military services in a highly complex and demanding exercise. Squadron sailors also had the opportunity to visit the U.S. territory of Guam during two fall deployment port calls, first following VALIANT SHIELD, and then again later in the fall patrol. Throughout the deployment year’s port calls across the Asia-Pacific, and continuing upon the squadron’s return to Atsugi, Royal Mace sailors set a superb example for professionalism as “Navy Ambassadors Abroad,” demonstrating impeccable conduct over the course of the year. To assist Mace leaders in diminishing risk of liberty incidents in the high-visibility Asia-Pacific region where the squadron deploys, the Royal Maces devised a “Personnel Risk Assessment Program” based on the well-established “Human Factors” risk assessment process mandated for Navy pilots. The program was lauded by Naval Aviation Safety Center inspectors on a recent visit to Naval Air Facility Atsugi, and has subsequently been adopted as a fleet “best practice” for managing and diminishing “human factor risk” for on or off-duty incidents. Throughout the deployment year, the squadron achieved unmatched operational and maintenance excellence through innovative leadership, and rigorous focus on the fundamentals of aviation maintenance, operations and safety. The squadron’s maintenance department demonstrated unparalleled skill, knowledge, and dedication to professional and safe maintenance practices by achieving one of the top results ever recorded during an Aviation Maintenance Inspection (AMI), the top-level maintenance inspection for U.S. Navy squadrons, conducted by a team from the Naval Air Forces Pacific headquarters. VFA-27 Maintenance Officer LCDR Andy McKee noted “I've never observed maintenance inspection results of higher caliber in my naval career. It was truly a team effort, and I could not be more proud to serve with this remarkable group of maintenance professionals.” Commander, Carrier Air Wing FIVE (CVW-5), CAPT William Koyama, awarded the squadron’s maintenance department the air wing’s coveted “Golden Wrench” award for two consecutive quarters in 2014 as the top maintenance department in CVW-5. The squadron was also ranked #1 for fuel efficiency out of the 26 FA- 18E/F squadrons in the Pacific Fleet by Commander, Naval Air Forces Pacific’s under the Naval Aviation Energy Conservation Program (Air ENCON). Royal Mace pilots demonstrated their tactical prowess and professionalism at carrier operations throughout the deployment year, earning the air wing’s “Top Hook” award for the top landing performance for two consecutive line periods. Royal Mace Commanding Officer CDR Spencer Abbot, Executive Officer CDR Adrian Calder, Operations Officer LCDR Justin Halligan, Head Landing Signal Officer LT David Tarr, and Aircraft Division Officer LT Jeffrey Spencer all received one or more “Top Ten” awards for overall landing grade average from among all pilots in the air wing over the course of the deployment cycle. LT Bryan Jacobs was also recognized as a “Top Nugget” from among all first-deployment pilots in the air wing. With their high GPA and boarding rate, the Royal Maces received the CVW-5 “Top Hook” award by more than a slim margin on both occasions. CAPT William Koyama, Commander, Carrier Air Wing FIVE, in presenting the second “Top Hook” award to the squadron remarked, “This award is not earned just by the best, most experienced ball flyers in the squadron-it is earned by the team mentoring and ensuring reliable competence in the least experienced, and least gifted ball flyers. It is earned by a squadron that does what it takes to make their lowest common denominator excellent by any other
  • 7. 7 standard.” LT David Tarr, the Head Landing Signals Officer for the Royal Maces, worked hard to ensure everyone in the squadron consistently flew safely and predictably, offering training and debriefing after every pass. According to LT Tarr, “our junior pilots have been the difference-makers in winning the Top Hook award. It’s easy to get discouraged after having a few bad passes, but we take it seriously and work hard to learn from each landing. As a result of that commitment, every single Mace pilot had grades higher than the air wing average. That speaks volumes about our team, and helps diminish risk in the inherently hazardous business of landing jets on aircraft carriers. ” As a capstone to the superb performance of Royal Mace pilots through the deployment year, VFA-27 Operations Officer LCDR Justin Halligan was chosen from among all U.S. Navy pilots in the Pacific Fleet for the 2014 Commander, Naval Air Forces Pacific Pilot of the Year Award. The squadron ended the 2014 deployment cycle aboard USS GEORGE WASHINGTON (CVN 73) with exercise KEEN SWORD, an opportunity to refine tactical skills and practice interoperability with counterparts from the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF). At home at Naval Air Facility Atsugi, the Royal Maces continued to work innovatively to further strengthen their relationship with the Japan Self-Defense Force, and with the squadron’s host community in Japan. The Royal Maces organized a combined training detachment with the Japan Air-Self Defense Force 204 th Fighter Squadron, an F-15J Eagle squadron based in Naha, Okinawa. Royal Mace pilots briefed, flew, and debriefed directly with their Japanese counterparts, enhancing the two squadrons’ readiness to operate together should that be required in a contingency or crisis. The squadron has also devised and implemented the Navy’s first foreign language training program for a deployed carrier air wing, partnering with the Navy’s Center for Language, Regional Expertise, and Culture (CLREC) to offer language classes in Mandarin Chinese and Korean to air wing sailors when in Atsugi, and Japanese classes both in Atsugi and aboard USS GEORGE WASHINGTON (CVN 73). The squadron additionally initiated a school partnership with Terao Elementary School, providing squadron sailors and spouses the opportunity to teach English classes to students in a Japanese elementary school in the local community near Naval Air Facility Atsugi. The 2014 COMNAVAIRPAC Battle “E” award highlights a very successful deployment cycle for the permanently forward-deployed VFA-27 Royal Maces. Royal Mace Commanding Officer, CDR Spencer Abbot, noted “Every member of the Royal Mace team has worked tirelessly to ensure the highest possible combat readiness through an extremely demanding deployment cycle that requires the squadron to deploy aboard USS GEORGE WASHINGTON (CVN 73) for a considerable portion of every year. I am immensely proud of the Sailors of the Royal Maces, who have set the standard for professionalism, teamwork, and commitment to excellence in support of security and stability in the Asia-Pacific region.”
