Approximately $16M of thesefunds will go toward restorationof buildings and utility systemsin the Legacy Zone on DalMolin.

This is a huge boost to USAGVicenza’s ability to restore thesefacilities and provide additionaladministrative, maintenance andbarracks space for garrisontenants, and will lead to areduction in leased facility space.

These projects will include: Repairs to B-3

Installation of photovoltaicpanels that will provide an initialsource of renewable energy forthe area.

This year’s funding, coupledwith favorable FY08 funding,has the cumulative impact ofproducing lasting improvementsin facilities that up until now havehistorically suffered fromfunding challenges.

USAG Vicenza also receivedover $17 million in additionalfunding in FY08 that enabled thegarrison to add projects such asrepairs to buildings and facilities

at Longare, new sports courtsand company administrativebuildings on Caserma Ederle,gym renovations and additionsand infrastructure improvementsin Villaggio and on CasermaEderle.

The garrison’s directorate ofpublic works has been veryproactive in obtaining additionalfunding through specialprograms and tenant providedfunds. Utilizing these funds, theirnormal SRM allotment and theadditional SRM moniesreceived, the DPW has initiatedmore than 30 major projects andnumerous smaller projects thathave significantly improved theoverall quality of facilitiesthroughout the garrison.

According to IMCOM-Europe officials, this is the firstyear that Europe garrisons haveever received 100 percent oftheir authorized SRM funding.The fiscal year 2009 funding

enables the reduction ofoutstanding work and serviceorders, more thorough executionof routine preventivemaintenance, the initiation of anumber of unit-movetransformation projects andinitiation of projects that improvebarracks and repair facilities ofdeployed Soldiers, along withenhancing energy efficiency, thetransportation infrastructure andcommunity facilities.

“In Soldier terms this meansthat we in the installationmanagement business will beeliminating some of the backlogof nagging maintenancedeficiencies in our barracks andaround our communities whilesimultaneously making somewise capital investments to ourinfrastructure thus improvingsustainability and quality of life,”said Diane Devens, director ofIMCOM-Europe. “Our ability toexecute about 300 more projects

than originally anticipated at thebeginning of the year is simplygreat news for the soldiers andfamilies stationed in Europe.”

Indeed, every militarycommunity stands to gain inreceiving the bulk of their prioritySRM project funding. Examplesof where the money is beingspent:

T r a n s p o r t a t i o ninfrastructure: $4.6 million;

Barracks improvement:$10.3 million;

Energy projects: $13.9million;

“Social events like this are the key tobuilding and maintaining partnerships withour Italian counterparts,” said Col. JeffreyDouville, U.S. Army Africa’s seniorlogistics officer. “This fosters a friendlyrelationship and promotes our ability towork together.”

The Padova-based command tracesit roots to 1948. For nearly six decades,it served as the regional headquarters forthe Italian military. Two years ago, theunit became a logistical command,focusing on sustainment of Italian units

across northern Italy.During the visit, Italian logisticians

PROFILES OF SUCCESSThe Noncommissioned Officer Hot weather can be a killer

U.S. Army Africa Command Safety

If you work outdoors in hotweather, or work in other hotenvironments, you are at risk for

heat illnesses. The most serious of theseillnesses is heat stroke, a life-threateningcondition requiring immediate medicalattention.

Take these precautions toavoid heat illness:

Take it easy. Working in a hotenvironment is a stress on your body, sodon’t overdo it. Take frequent shortbreaks.

Drink plenty of water, and drinkit frequently. Avoid alcoholic beveragesand drinks containing caffeine, which cancontribute to dehydration.

Dress in lightweight fabrics thatprovide ventilation. Light colors arecooler than dark colors, which absorb thesun’s heat.

Know you are at particular riskfor heat illness if you are overweight, inpoor health, poor physical condition, haveheart disease, diabetes or other medicalconditions.Recognize heat illnesses and

know how to treat them: Heat cramps are caused by heavy

sweating which can deplete the body ofsalt. They may be accompanied by hot,

moist skin and a slightly elevated bodytemperature. The cramps in the arms,legs, or stomach can occur while you areworking, or when you are relaxing afteryour shift.

Heat cramps are a danger signal ofheat stress. Treat heat cramps by movinginto the shade and loosening clothing.Drink a lightly salted liquid. If crampspersist, seek medical help.

Heat exhaustion may becharacterized by heavy sweating, strongthirst, cool and moist skin, a quick pulse,rapid breathing, nausea, a feeling offatigue and possibly fainting.

Heat exhaustion indicates the body’smechanism for controlling heat isbeginning to break down. To treat heatexhaustion, cool the victim as fast aspossible, fanning, and pouring water onthe victim if necessary. Have the victimdrink water and call immediately formedical help.

Heat stroke is a serious medicalemergency that can quickly proceed tounconsciousness and death. It occurswhen the body loses too much salt andwater so that sweating stops.

At that point, the body’s temperaturecontrol mechanism fails and bodytemperature increases rapidly.

Symptoms include hot, red, dry skin, aquick pulse, difficulty breathing, dizziness,

confusion, strange behavior, weakness,and nausea. Heat stroke can quicklyprogress to convulsions, coma, loss ofpulse and an extreme body temperature.Death can follow rapidly.

To treat heat stroke, immediately begincooling the victim to lower the bodytemperature as fast as possible. Wrap theperson in an ice sheet, immerse him inwater, or use ice to cool his body. Callfor medical help immediately.Other hot weather hazards:

Sunburn is another hazard of hotweather. Not only is sunburn a painfulcondition, but it can contribute to skincancer. Cover up to prevent sunburn. Ahat with a brim, long-sleeved shirt andpants rather than shorts can help preventburning.

Use a sunblock with a sun protectionfactor (SPF) of at least 15. Try to stayout of the sun during the peak hours of10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Too much bright sunlight cancause temporary eyestrain andpermanent eye damage. Exposure to thesun can damage the retina inside the eye,and contribute to the development ofcataracts, which cloud the vision.

Protect your eyes from exposure tothe sun’s rays. Wear sunglasses whichprovide protection against both UVA andUVB ultraviolet radiation.

Don’t let your Fourth of July end in tragedy

USAG Vicenza Safety Office

Fire up the grills, chill the drinks, getthe family and friends together and let’scelebrate America’s birthday.

The Fourth of July is traditionally atime of the year for heavy travel andhearty celebrations; however, it is also atime when many accidents occur due topoor decision-making and a fewrecurring themes are worth mentioning.

Firework displays are one of thecornerstones of any Fourth of Julycelebration.

However, on Army installationsfireworks are prohibited. This includesfamily housing areas and governmentleased quarters, unless conducted by alicensed contracted company.

Recurring theme No. 1: Iffireworks are authorized in yourneighborhood, supervise the children.

Sparklers seem relatively harmless butthey are estimated to burn at temperaturesbetween 1,500 and 3,000 degreesFahrenheit and are statistically a maincause of structural fires and burns.

Recurring theme No. 2:Automobile accidents involving alcohol.

If your plans include traveling, plan totake frequent rest breaks and do not startthe party until you arrive at yourdestination. Always wear your seatbelt;don’t drink and drive. Be responsible.

Recurring theme No. 3:Food poisoning and barbecue burns. Usecommon sense when grilling and keepchildren away from the hot grill.

Remember the two-hour food rule:cooked or prepared foods should not stayat room temperature for more than twohours before discarding or refrigerating.

Information for safe food handling canbe found at http://www.health.sa.gov.au/pehs /Food/2hour-4hour-rule.pdf. Keep these recurring themesin mind when planning your Fourth of Julyactivities and have a safe holiday.

now instead of being free and safe.”

Soldiers from Delta Company, 173rd Airborne Brigade takes part in the First Rock Community Engagement Program,an initiative to build a stronger bond between Soldiers of the 173d Airborne Brigade and Italian communities.

If you don’t know much about scubadiving, there are opportunities on post tolearn about this sport.

Outdoor Recreation offers a course forbeginners, which includes three sessionsof classroom time, two days at the pooland two days in open water.

“Few people actually know what scubastands for,” said Staff Sgt. John Griffis,who is currently working toward hisAssistant Instructor Certification.

Griffis is the 173rd Airborne BrigadeCombat Team Brigade Chaplain AssistantNCOIC.

Griffis explained that the word scubais an acronym for “Self ContainedUnderwater Breathing Apparatus.”

“The history of scuba is quite recent;the biggest advance on the path to scubadiving came in the 16th century whenpeople started using diving bells to pumpair from the surface to peopleunderwater,” he said.

According to Griffis, the sport hasadvanced a fair bit since then, althoughthe diving bell has remained an importantmethod for centuries.

“Scuba diving as we know it reallycame together during and after WorldWar II,” he said.

During the classesheld at Villaggio pool,participants began bylearning more about theirequipment and how todeal with the change inair pressure.

“As you go deeperunderwater, the pressurearound you increases” explained Griffis.

“If the pressure becomes too much,you can rupture your eardrums ordamage your sinuses. And if you comeup from underwater too quickly, you canget ‘the bends,’ also known asdecompression sickness,” he said.

Once participants are certified asbeginner open water, they may completeother courses up to instructor trainer bythe National Association of Underwater

Instructors (NAUI).Outdoor Rec’s Carlos Palacios has

been an instructor trainer for the pastyear.

“Before that, I was an assistant to theprevious instructor,” said Palacios.

“Scuba diving is a great sport. It givesyou the opportunity toexplore, enjoy and learnmore about a whole newworld,” he said. “Itchallenges you mentallyand physically. And atthe end you will be leftwith not only a sense ofaccomplishment but also

with new skills that can follow youanywhere in the world. Here at OutdoorRec we have a great scuba program.

“We hold all types of classesthroughout the summer. Some areconducted locally and others are held inCroatia,” he added.

For information about the program andupcoming events contact ODR at 634-7453.
