Shipmates, families and friends: Ahoy
from the sandy shores of Kuwait. It is an
honor and a pleasure to introduce our premier
“November News “Family Newsletter. My
outstanding team has been snapping photos
from day one of our mobilization. It is our
goal to feature mission accomplishments and
the personal and professional successes of
our sailors stretching across five countries and
their associated bases. My headquarters staff
is manned by IT1 Melinda Judson of Marietta,
OH, YN2 Kenneth Turner of Citronelle, AL and
BM2 Steven Hall of Keokuk, IA. My industrious
photographers include MA1 Crystal Jarrett of
Baltimore, MD; ABH2 Carlos Barbamarquez of
Los Angeles, Ca, BM2 Gary Coles of Smyrna,
TN and HM3 Geoffrey Gutierrez-Lagunda of
Virginia Beach, VA. They are always on duty
with their cameras capturing the world’s
greatest Sailors serving our country.
We are assisted in our mission by company
and unit PAO representatives: BM1 (Aw)
Kelly Lynch of ACD-4 in Afghanistan, BU1 Phu
Nguyen of MRAP Mission in Afghanistan, GM2
Rudy Heinrich of Alpha Company, YN1(AW)Lisa
Rowe of BRAVO Company, AT2 Samuel Laurent
and HM3 Earl Turner of Charlie Company and
ET1 Vernon Cash of Golf Company.
Working together as a team, it is our
goal to showcase NAVELSG FWD SAILORS
accomplishing the mission and sharing our
deployment experiences with you. NAVELSG
FWD sailors are encouraged to submit articles
and photos for inclusion in our publications.
We have an official command Facebook
““NAVELSG FWD” page for official command
events and a group page named “NAVELSG
FWD NOVEMBER CRUISEBOOK. “ To view the
command page you can search GOOGLE and
type in “NAVELSG FWD” and link will appear to
connect you to the page. A Facebook account
is not necessary to view the page. Recommend
our page to your family and friends so they can
see our Sailors in action.
We will be working very hard over the next
several months to bring you Newsletters and
Facebook Updates in addition to producing our
Cruisebook. Stay Tuned for more……………….
Very Respectfully

Note From The Editor
To the NAVELSG FWD Families, Friends and other Shipmates - Greetings from Camp Arifjan
Kuwait! As the Group Commander of NAVELSG FWD, I want you to know that we are very excited to
publish our premier edition newsletter. This edition is dedicated to you - the families and friends of our
deployed sailors. It’s hard to believe that we have been deployed for over four months. Each day of deployment
is another day closer that we will all be home and reunited with both families and friends.
I want to reassure you that all sailors are doing an outstanding job and I am very proud of the accomplishments
we have achieved thus far in our deployment. I also want to assure you that I take my job
and the responsibility to take care of all sailors very seriously. I am also honored to be the Group Commander
and have dedicated my leadership to the memory of CAPT Lyman Foster who was the Group
Commander during the NAVELSG FWD Bravo rotation. I was his Deputy during the Bravo rotation and
the impact of his leadership still touches me today.
Our mission as part of NAVELSG FWD is to provide Expeditionary Support Services (ESS) throughout
the U.S. Central Command Area of Responsibility, Marine Air Cargo Handling to the U.S. Marine Corps,
and Customs Clearing for U.S. Army personnel and equipment.
Our deployment goals are to (1) provide the best possible logistical support to the joint warfighter, and,
(2) mobilize, deploy, and return home with no accidents, injuries, or mishaps - returning home better
than when we left.
I am extremely proud of each sailor in the Group and even more proud of the families and friends
