NSF Indian Head Celebrates 125 Years

By NSASPPublic Affairs

For the last 18 years a dedi-cated group of volunteers,many affiliated with NavalSupport Facility (NSF) Dahl-gren, have made it their mis-sion to improve the lives of theanimals of KingGeorgeCountythrough adoption, spay andneuter campaigns, andvaccineprograms. A number of activeKing George Animal RescueLeague (KGARL) members areemployed at or serve at thebase; several spend time everyweek supporting the organiza-tion, a testament to Dahlgren’scommunity spirit.

KGARL, a 501(c) 3nonprofitorganization, was founded in1998 by Paula Van Alstine andLeslie McCullough, with thegoal of improving conditionsat the previous King GeorgeCounty pound. Van Alstineis now on the board of theDahlgren Railroad HeritageTrail (DRHT) group, but con-tinues to partner with KGARLon events. Currently, the twoorganizations are partneringfor a walk to be held Sept. 19at the DRHT for dogs and theirpeople, to raise awareness ofWilson’s disease, a syndromethat affects both canines andhumans. Since the inceptionofKGARL, theorganizationhasmade a tremendous impact onthe lives of not only the ani-mals at theKingGeorgeAnimalControl pound,but in thecom-munity as well.

Through the years KGARLhas grown to over 200 mem-bers, with about 25-30 very ac-tive members who take part ineverything from transports ofrescue animals to no-kill shel-ters and rescue groups up anddown the east coast, assistingin the socialization of the dogsand cats at the King GeorgeAnimal Control facility, partici-pating in fund-raising events,assisting the county with its bi-annual vaccination clinics, andKGARL’s latest venture - a col-laboration with the new Petcoin King George as an adoptionpartner.

“The Petco adoption part-nership has been very success-ful,”CharlotteGaither -KGARLSecretary and Petco AdoptionCoordinator stated. “Asofmid-July, we have found homes forover 14 cats through our Petcopartnership. They are cats thatmight not otherwise have got-ten an opportunity for a goodhome - adult and senior catswho would have more thanlikely been passed over for kit-tens at the shelter and otheradoption venues, but weregiven a chance to shine in thePetco setting.”

Gaither is employed atthe Naval Surface WarfareCenter Dahlgren Division’s(NSWCDD) Asymmetric De-fense Systems Department,and along with her husbandPete-an employee of the En-gagement Systems Depart-

ment at NSWCDD-spendsmany hours each week on thePetco partnership working toensure the cat care volunteershave all the supplies they need,arranging the first weekendof the month Petco adoptionevents and coordinating thereceiving and vet care of newcats when adoptions occur.

“We can always use morevolunteers to take a shift atPetco,” Gaither said. “The catshave to be cared for twice aday - feeding, litter cleaningand just spending a few min-utes with the cats to socializethem. It can be stressful onthem to be in the crates all day,so that time that the volunteerscan spendmeans somuch.Weneed volunteers seven days aweek for this -wehave amorn-ing and evening shift and it’salways difficult to fill thosemorning slots as somany of ushave daytime jobs.”

The organization’s maingoal is to support King GeorgeAnimalControl andKevinEller,the Animal Control Officer isgrateful for thework that theor-ganization does for the facility.“KingGeorgeAnimalControl isvery fortunate to have the helpof KGARL,” he said. “With theirsupport we have been able tohave animals tested and vettedwhich increases adoptability aswell as the chance to be placedin rescues. It definitely helpsbuy the animals some moretime. [King George AnimalControl] and KGARL work verywell together, and we are hereto support our community.”

Another popular programthat the organization offers isthe Spay and Neuter VoucherAssistance Program (SNAP).

The KGARL website (www.kgarl.org) has an applicationfor individuals to receive fund-ing assistance to help spay orneuter their pets, which is themost effective and humaneway to reduce the numberof unwanted animals in thecounty. Members of KGARLunderstand, however, that thiscan be financially difficult formany families.

Through the generous do-nations of KGARL supportersby way of grants and otherfund-raising, the organizationis able to provide financial as-sistance that can mean thedifference for pet owners whowant to do the responsiblething for their pet companions.

The community has re-sponded positively to KGARL’sspay and neuter assistance.“We have had an increase thisyear in residents who contactus willing to provide transpor-tation and recovery for feralcat colonies in their neighbor-hoods if we will provide forthe altering of the cats,” saidGaither. “This is such a win

because we don’t know wherethecolonies alwaysareand thisidentifies as well as neutralizesthe problem.”

2015 has been an excep-tionally busy kitten season forKing George Animal Control,and the efforts on the part ofregular citizens and the teamat KGARL through the SNAPprogram has meant a signifi-cant reduction in the numberof kittens that will show up atthe pound in the future.

Larry Hinson, a 36-yearveteran of NSF Dahlgren’sPublic Works Department, isalso a longtime volunteer withKGARL. He has spent the last17 years in animal rescue with

KGARL and on his own, assist-ing on NSF Dahlgren and inhis hometown of Montross inWestmorelandCounty.

Hinson provides a “mealson wheels” program for thelocal community, deliveringdonated dog and cat food tofamilies in need who wouldotherwise not be able to keeptheir beloved pets. This reduc-es the number of animals thatare dropped off at the shelterdue to families not being ableto afford to feed their pets.

Hinson’s passion for ani-mals has takenhimmanyplac-

es, including post-HurricaneKatrina New Orleans in 2005.Hinson and others spent twoweeks in thehurricane-ravagedregion providing food and wa-ter for displaced pets and otheranimals in the city.

“It was a real wake up callformanyofus,”Hinsonshared.“I feel it’s everyone’s responsi-bility to take careofGod’s crea-tures.”

“World War II Ends:Dahlgren Tests ValidateNew Atomic Capability”is the theme of a com-munity forum sponsoredby the Dahlgren HeritageFoundation on August 11.

Hosted by St. Paul’sEpiscopal Church, 5486St. Paul’s Rd., in KingGeorge, the communityforum will be open to thepublic and offered at nocharge. The event willbegin at 4:30 p.m. with aninformal reception andthe program will begin at5 p.m.

The Dahlgren HeritageFoundation is target-ing 2015 as a year-longopportunity to observethe 70th anniversary ofthe end of World War IIthrough the lens of theinnovations and technol-ogy developed and testedby the U.S. Navy at Dahl-gren, Va. that helped de-termine the outcome ofthat war and continue tobe critical to the tacticaland strategic capabilitiesto U.S. armed services to-day and into the future.The centerpiece of thisyear-long commemora-tion is a series of quar-terly community forums.

Vice Adm. WilliamHilarides, commanderfor Naval Sea SystemsCommand (NAVSEA) inWashington, D.C., is thefeatured guest speaker for

the August 11 forum. Hi-larides oversees a globalworkforce of more than56,000 military and civil-ian personnel responsiblefor the development, de-livery and maintenanceof the Navy’s ships, sub-marines and systems.

A 1981 graduate of theU.S. Naval Academy, Hi-larides has served at seaon U.S. attack subma-rines and ballistic-missilesubmarines in deploy-ments to the North Atlan-tic, Mediterranean, Arcticand Western Pacific.

The forum will alsofeature a guest paneldiscussion that will in-clude Dr. James Colvard,a former technical direc-tor for the Naval SurfaceWarfare Center at Dahl-gren and former specialassistant to the Secretaryof the Navy, and ChrisKolakowski, director ofThe MacArthur Memorialin Norfolk, Va. The panelwill be moderated by EdJones, president of theDahlgren Heritage Foun-dation.

While there is nocharge to attend, regis-tration is strongly en-couraged and may becompleted on line atwww . e v en tb r i t e . c om(search for DahlgrenCommunity Forum) orfrom the Dahlgren Heri-tage Museum’s Face-

book site https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dahlgren-Heritage-Mu-seum/218635358172762.

The World War II com-memorative programmingof 2015 will also provide aplatform for the Founda-tion to prepare for the cen-tennial of the Navy baseat Dahlgren in 2018. TheFoundation anticipatesthat the Dahlgren HeritageMuseum will factor intothe base’s centennial ob-servance and will serve ashelpful catalyst not only totell the history of Dahlgren,but also to promote its fu-ture.

The goal of the Foun-dation is to generate apublic understanding ofthe impact the U.S. Navybase at Dahlgren andthe surrounding com-munity has had in usingscience and technologyto strengthen nationaldefense, particularlythrough support for warf-ighters.

Dahlgren’s function asthe Navy’s principal prov-ing ground at the outsetof World War II provideda critical capability forproofing and testing ev-ery major naval gun andall ammunition suppliedto the Fleet to directly in-fluence and support forcereadiness throughout theglobal conflict.

Dahlgren’s ballistic

ranges, coupled with thescientific and techni-cal expertise resident atthe base at the outset ofWorld War II, played animportant role in the na-tion’s development of itsfirst atomic weapon de-livery system.

Dahlgren’s ballisticranges continue to pro-vide a unique capabilityfor proofing and testingevery major naval gunand Fleet ammunition,as well as supportingRDT&E and proof testingfor leading-edge weapons

systems for Navy and oth-er U.S. armed services.

The siting of the NavalOrdnance Relay Calcu-lator (NORC) computerand further evolutions ofcomputer systems em-ployed at Dahlgren havebeen key to developmentof leading-edge ballisticsresearch, space geodesyand space surveillance,and computer/ weaponsystems integration, andhave provided essen-tial operational supportto Navy and other U.S.armed forces on bothstrategic and tactical lev-els.

Today, Dahlgren hasgrown to serve as home tomultiple DoD commandsthat execute a broadspectrum of scientific andresponse-force missionsserving all branches ofthe U.S. armed services.

NSF Dahlgren makesa significant economiccontribution to the localcommunity and the in-stallation’s military com-mands, as a whole, serveas the largest employerin King George County,and one of the largestemployers in the greaterFredericksburg area.

makes him a wonderful ambassador tothe community and his love of animalsshines through as he speaks of his timespent volunteering. “I just wish peoplewould be responsible for their pets andhave them spayed or neutered,” he said.“Help is there from rescue organizationslike KGARL. Rescue work is an ongoingoperation and there’s plenty of room formore volunteers.”

MicheleShipman,KGARLTreasurer aswell as an engineer in NSWCDD’s Strate-gic andWeapons Control SystemDepart-ment, has been with the organization for13 years. Throughout her time, she hasbeen in many different roles, from presi-dent to treasurer. Michele and her hus-band, Chris, also employed at NSWCDD,foster dogs for Bully Paws Pit Bull Patriots,where they provide a temporary homefor loving pit bulls who are awaiting their“forever home.” Currently, the Shipman’shave one foster pit bull in their care. “Itcan definitely be difficult to say good-bye when these guys get adopted,” sheexplained. “These dogs become familymembers, but I knowwhenonefinds theirforever home, that means I can provide achance for another one to find theirs.”

Inaddition toher full time jobasanen-gineer, Shipman is also attendingOldDo-minion University in pursuit of her mas-ter’s degree in engineering managementand is scheduled to graduate in August.She is using her experiences at KGARLto provide data and information for herfinal project. “My final class project is onthe KGARL Volunteer Program,” she said.“I hope that my work can be used to helpKGARL becomemore efficient, andmoti-vatemore people to volunteer.”

Melissa Lederer, the Systems Safe-ty Engineering Division Head withinNSWCDD’sEngagement SystemsDepart-ment, has also beenwith the organizationfor many years, including holding boardpositions, volunteering at King GeorgeAnimal Control, fostering and transport-ing animals, andworking events.

“There are so many opportunities forpeople to get involved,” said Lederer. “Wecan find a position to fit whatever skillsand interests you have.”

Currently serving as the KGARL Mem-ber-at-Largeand theLost-FoundPetCoor-dinator, Lederer enjoys volunteering at thefundraising events. “As a 501(c)3, we relyheavily on fundraisers and can always usemore volunteers at events,” she said. “Weare only able to accomplish what we dobecauseof thededicationofourvolunteersand the generosity of our community.”

Kelly Penney, an MWR employee at

the Crafttech Shop, has been with KGARLfor the last three years and finds it veryfulfilling to be a part of caring for the catsat Petco. “I always have time for our furryfriends as domanyothers,” she said. “Giv-ing them a voice and a second chance atlife when so many others have let themdown-if we don’t care about them whowill? It truly makes my heart feel goodwhen you see them leaving for their for-ever home.”

Even active duty Sailors find time to bea part of making a difference in the livesof the pet population. Culinary Special-ist 2nd Class Amanda Glover, assignedto Naval Support Activity South Potomac(NSASP) and the Naval District Washing-ton (NDW) Sailor of the Year has enjoyedvolunteering at the fundraising events.

“The thing I enjoy the most with vol-unteering with KGARL is the people,” saidGlover. “Being around people who arepassionate about volunteering their timeto raise money and awareness for a shel-ter makes the volunteer work worth everyminute.Tome, thevolunteerwork isworthit because even though it’s not directlyadoptingananimal, it isproviding servicesfor the animals until they find their foreverhome. It’s also a great opportunity for the

junior Sailors to connect with the localcommunity in ameaningful way.”

As with any non-profit volunteer or-ganization, there is always room for morevolunteers and there are many opportu-nities throughout the organization for thecommunity to get involved. KGARL hasquite a fewdifferent projects that they canuseassistancewith - currently thegroup isinvolved in what is known as Trap NeuterRelease (TNR).

KGARL is asked many times a year toprovide either the pound or individualsin the community with assistance trap-ping feral cats and transporting them toone of the local facilities to be spayed orneutered. After they have recovered fromsurgery the cats are then re-released backinto the feral colony they came from.

While it doesn’t completely take careof the feral cat problem, it does help toensure that there will be fewer litters ofhomeless kittens flooding the shelter eachspring. The organization is seeking vol-unteers to bring the cats to the spay andneuter appointments and foster for a dayor two until the cats have sufficiently re-covered to be returned to their colony.

Another avenue that the communitycan offer assist is through the KGARL’sfundraising ventures. Throughout theyear they participate in a variety of events.Having more volunteers to split up thework shift takes the pressure of the vol-unteers that are consistently working inalmost every capacity. Often the eventsare enjoyable community events such aswine festivals, local fairs and poker runs.The response from the citizens is alwayspositive as KGARL volunteers share theirmissionwith the community.

If you have free time and want to giveback to the community and help the localanimal population, KGARL is always look-ing for a few good volunteers.

“To say that we are grateful to the NSFDahlgrenpersonnel is suchanunderstate-ment. We could not do even half of whatwe do if not for the support that we getfrom them,” Shipman shared. “From theCombined Federal Campaign (CFC) pro-gram, to theactualhands-onsupport frommembers around the base, the level ofsupport we receive is amazing. We countourselves very fortunate to have access tosuch generous and proactive folks.”

that, “It is all about teaching us the rulesthey want us to follow.”

Simpson recounted that she devel-oped skills as an engineer, flight instruc-tor and program manager but didn’tlose those skills as a transgender person.On the contrary, she was more effectiveonce she could work and live as her au-thentic self.

“It is a matter of authenticating andpersonal integrity,” said Simpson, em-phasizing that diversity of thought and

background must also be embraced.“Failure to do so limits our capability todo great things.”

Reflecting on the reason she was will-ing to go through the pain of the pub-licity and embarrassment of parodiesof her on talk shows, Simpson affirmedthat, “to be authentic to who I am, I hadto change the rules.”

We can honor diversity by lookingclosely at who we turn to for advice andwho gets the good assignments, saidSimpson.

People practice the unconscious ruleof choosing people who look and actlike themselves, she explained. Uncon-sciously, our logic tells us that we want

to be around people who are like us be-cause there is a better chance that theywill agree with us. But what we reallyneed is someone with a different view tosolve the problems and create innova-tive products.

Simpson said she intentionally reach-es out to all types of diverse groups - byrace, creed, and minority groups.

“Our common bond of freedomunites us all,” she said, adding thatLGBT society has something to sharewith each group and each group con-tributes to the LGBT society.

Earlier this year, revisions to the DoDmilitary equal opportunity policy werecompleted, updating the policy to in-

clude sexual orientation, and compel-ling the DoD to hold the standard oftreating sexual-orientation-based dis-crimination equal to the discriminationof race, religion, color, sex, age and na-tional origin.

“All people deserve to live with dig-nity and respect, free from fear and vio-lence, and protected against discrimi-nation, regardless of their gender iden-tity or sexual orientation,” quoted fromPresident Barack Obama’s presidentialproclamation May 29. “During Lesbian,Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender PrideMonth, we celebrate the proud legacy(that) LGBT individuals have woven intothe fabric of our Nation.”
