BLIC AFFAIRS Internal information, community and media rela- tions are a triad of activities which are the responsibili- ty of the 11-man Public Affairs Division. Whether it's telling the Navy story to national or international media, explaining a new Navy policy regarding retire- ment benefitsg or helping a local school with its drug awareness program, Public Affairs personnel have a number of vehicles to use in passing the word and keeping people informed. NIMITZ News is the ship's newspaper. Published daily at sea and weekly in port, it features shipboard, national and international news and sports. Connec- tion, the shipis familygram, is produced monthly for families of crew members. Public Affairs also produces welcome aboard books and flyers on various subjects. The journalists of the Public Affairs Division write sto- ries about the ship and its crew, not only for shipboard publications, but for release to publications such as All Hands, Navy Times, and various civilian media. In addition to producing information publications, Public Affairs deal with people outside the Navy orga- nization. To show business and political leaders, news media and other opinion makers what the Navy is about, Public Affairs hosts visitors at sea and inport. While in the Middle East, the crew was in a unique position to tell the story of post-Desert Storm opera- tions for the Navy in the Arabian Gulf area. Public Affairs coordinated and hosted an endless array of civilian dignitaries, royalty, media and jointfmulti- national military personnel, which was' a catalyst that coigiggibuted to a new spirit of teamwork within the Gulf Cooperation Council CGCCJ. Public Affairs also plays a major role insestablishing vibrant community rela- tions programs in the Puget Sound area. The division's goal is to enhance the image of the Navy in Bremerton and with each distinguished visit and media opportunity. Public Affairs receives and answers fan mail and memora- bilia requests from around the world. f'Bringing you a little touch of home, is motto of the ship's radio and TV station. Operating five television channels, Public Affairs offers a variety of closed-circuit television services. There is an all-movie channel QNIMITZ Box Officeb providing 22 hours of first run and classic movie programming. A network-style channel fea- ' tures Armed Forces Radio and Television Service pro- gramming CKNTZJ, an information channel providing command related information, a weather channel and a training channel. NIMITZ Nightly News, an anchored television news program featuring shipboard news, world news and sports. Port Briefs, From the Top and Admiral'S Call, are programs that provide timely and important command information. Additionally, when the ship is within satellite reception range, live stateside news and sports channels are televised. Six FM radio frequencies, consisting of both live and taped programs, bring the crew various types of music, including adult contemporary, easy listening and country. News and sports are also carried throughout the day. Dee- jays from Public Affairs and volunteers are featured on the shipis premier radio channel, Z-98 FM. Maintaining contact with the world we affect, is the Public Affairs credo. . t 1 ..- I L .53
