Newport News Shipbuilding, A Division of HII reposted this
A team of Newport News shipbuilders was recently recognized for completing the battery load, a critical evolution for Virginia-class submarine Arkansas (#SSN800). These shipbuilders worked extended shifts and completed this complex undertaking ahead of schedule. This success is even more impressive given that it was the first time most of the team members had performed a battery load. Please join me in thanking this team for a job well done!

Having done it once in my career as a CS, it’s a very long planning period both before and after load with a lot of critical steps in between. Good to see another one completed successfully. See some familiar faces in the picture that I use to work with that are great leaders on the deckplate. Congrats everyone.
Was on SSN 706 during several shipyard maintenance activities and a battery changeout was one of most indicate evolutions.
Teamwork makes the dreamwork!
