Technology Drives Latest Kennedy Milestone An improved build strategy, which includes the use of digital technologies to improve efficiencies, has allowed Newport News Shipbuilding to reach another milestone in the construction of the aircraft carrier John F. Kennedy (CVN 79). Shipbuilders on Friday, Sept. 28, lowered the final piece of the ship’s underwater hull into place. The joining of the 726-ton lower bow, which includes the distinctive bulbous feature, completes the section of the ship below the waterline and extends the nuclear-powered warship an additional 122 feet. At 1,096 feet, Kennedy’s hull is longer than three football fields. The lower bow is more than 64 feet tall and 54 feet wide and is one of the heaviest planned steel structures, known as superlifts, to be placed on the ship. The unit consists of 84,000 square feet of tanks and chain lockers. “This superlift completes the underwater hull of the ship and completes the erection of all of the ship’s structures from main deck down,” said Lucas Hicks, vice president of CVN 79 Carrier Construction. “The lower bow superlift is another good example of how the use of technology is driving how we building the next generation aircraft carrier. “This brings us one step closer to launching the ship next year,” Hicks said. More than 3,000 shipbuilders and 2,000 suppliers from across the country are supporting the construction of Kennedy. The christening is planned for late 2019. Watch a video of the lower bow superlift on MyNNS or the NNS to Go app.

Freedom Delivered: Navy Commissions USS Indiana (SSN 789) CONTINUED FROM PG 1
During the ceremony, Ship’s Sponsor Diane Donald gave the order for sailors to “man our ship and bring her to life,” in a timehonored Navy tradition. Newport News Shipbuilding President Jennifer Boykin spoke during the ceremony, representing the shipbuilders at NNS who worked to construct Indiana. “These proud Americans understand that what they do every day contributes to something much greater than themselves. They pour their hearts and their souls into their work,” she said. Indiana – built at NNS and General Dynamics Electric Boat – was christened at NNS in April 2017.

Shipbuilders Celebrate Inaugural Newport News Day Shipbuilders met at The Rock Sept. 21 to celebrate Newport News Day. They wore blue to unite as one and show shipbuilder pride. The celebration was planned by the Pride In What We Do team. More Newport News Day celebrations will be held in the future at different locations around the shipyard. Check the Datebook section of Currents for more information about future celebrations.
Ian Sandstrum (E27) was working in construction, serving in the U.S. Army Reserve and taking classes toward a degree in engineering when his life changed in the blink of an eye. A 2008 motorcycle accident left him paralyzed from the chest down with limited arm movement and no hand function. “Adjusting to life in a wheelchair after being an able-bodied person was an extremely long process,” he said. “I had to get past the ‘what ifs’ and thinking about what my life would have been like had I not been in an accident and instead focus on my future and getting back into the workforce.”
Disability Awareness Month: Ian Sandstrum Newport News Shipbuilding is recognizing Disability Awareness Month in October. As part of NNS’ company-wide Inclusion and Diversity campaign, four employees are featured on posters recognizing the month. Articles about these shipbuilders will be published in Currents, the NNS to Go app, MyNNS and on social media each week.
Sandstrum spent more than a year in physical and occupational therapy. He later returned to school, earning an associate degree in engineering from Northern Virginia Community College and enrolling at Old Dominion University, where he continues to work toward a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering. In February 2017, Sandstrum began his career at Newport News Shipbuilding as a designer. “The shipyard is extremely accommodating toward people with disabilities. All of the people I’ve dealt with have looked past my disability and seen
my potential, my work ethic and the way I present myself,” he said. “At the same time, the company has provided adaptations like a special desk and computer hardware and software to make my work environment better so that I can be more productive.” Sandstrum hopes that Disability Awareness Month inspires and encourages people to look beyond the outward appearances of those with disabilities and to see them as just another person. “People who don’t know me may just see my disability and the fact that I’m in a wheelchair. If they got to know me, they would learn that I haven’t changed my goals, how I act or how I plan to live my life,” he said. “Disabilities can restrict certain activities, but you can still be productive in life, work and personal growth. It’s important to keep a positive attitude, strive to better yourself and never give up.” View Sandstrom's poster on MyNNS or the NNS to Go app. Shipbuilders interested in sharing their story as part of NNS' Inclusion and Diversity campaign, should visit nns.huntingtoningalls.com/id-campaign-2018.

NOTICE: Communications HOLA to Host Hispanic Heritage to Stop Publishing Month Celebration Classifieds Shipbuilders have likely noticed the posters popping up around Following the Oct. 8 edition of Currents, Communications will no longer publish Employee Classifieds. When Communications first launched the service, it was meant to provide a convenient resource for shipbuilders to buy and sell items. At the time, there were not as many options as there are today to post and sell items. After evaluating the time and effort it takes to administer this service, the division has made a business decision to discontinue providing the service in-house. Shipbuilders who would like to buy or sell items are encouraged to use other public advertising options, such as:
Newport News Shipbuilding for Hispanic Heritage Month. However, some may be curious about its Sept. 15 to Oct. 15 timeframe.
The monthlong commemoration coincides with Independence Day celebrations of various Latin American countries and acknowledges the contributions of Americans whose ancestors hail from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America. The Hispanic Outreach and Leadership Alliance (HOLA) employee resource group is hosting a Hispanic Heritage Month celebration from 4:30 until 6 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 10, in the VASCIC auditorium. Richard Montañez, the creator of the Flamin’ Hot line of products, will be the featured speaker. The son of immigrants, Montañez started his career at PepsiCo as a janitor and worked his way up to vice president. All shipbuilders are welcome to attend the event and can RSVP online. For more information, contact Sam Byrne (E14) at 688-2096 or Marisol Liceaga (E83) at 688-2285.

NNS received the Virginia Values Veterans (V3) Phoenix Award for providing comprehensive support to a veteran employed by a company or a veteran job seeker. Ian Sandstrum (E27) accepted the award on behalf of the company. “All Virginians have the responsibility to serve these veterans as they have served us,” Northam said. See the governor's press release for more infomation.

10 | 1 | 2018 “It’s a very functional vehicle to be used inside the shipyard,” said NNS Fire Chief Mark McTheny. “It gives us access to locations that we cannot get to with our standard vehicles.” The MERV is similar to other utility vehicles used throughout NNS and has the ability to carry a stretcher to transport patients from an incident site to a waiting ambulance. Since it is diesel powered, the MERV can travel onboard vessels to support both medical and fire-related emergencies.

Fire Department Debuts New Vehicle Earlier this month, the Newport News Shipbuilding Fire Department introduced a new vehicle to its fleet. It’s not a fire truck or an ambulance, but a mini emergency response vehicle (MERV) instead.
Firefighters will use the vehicle for day-to-day tasks like traveling through the yard to inspect buildings and to service temporary fire equipment. The MERV will also be used during large ceremonies at NNS like christenings and even community events like 5K races because it is easier to maneuver through large crowds compared with a full-size ambulance. “We have looked at the best ways to support the shipbuilders, and this is one way we can improve our service in both the day-to-day operations and during special events,” McTheny said. “It will help us provide the best medical care that we possibly can.”
Hispanic Heritage Month: Jose Vasquez Jr. Newport News Shipbuilding is celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month, Sept. 15-Oct. 15. As part of NNS’ company-wide Inclusion and Diversity campaign, four employees are featured on posters recognizing the month. Articles about these shipbuilders will be published in Currents, the NNS to Go app, MyNNS and on social media each week. Jose Vasquez Jr. (K93) views Hispanic Heritage Month as an opportunity to share and learn. “Latino countries all have distinct cultures, music and food. Hispanic Heritage Month allows us to display all of the separate cultures that people may not know about and foster more understanding,” he said. “It also allows us to celebrate the many accomplishments and contributions of Latinos across the United States.” Vasquez, a Miami native of Dominican American descent, came to Newport News Shipbuilding in 2017. As a quality engineer, he works to ensure trade departments are in compliance with procedures. The work is challenging, but Vasquez enjoys learning new things every day.
“I came here because I wanted a job that was meaningful and allowed me to contribute to society,” he said. “I thought that coming here – where we build submarines and aircraft carriers to protect our nation – was one of the best ways to give back and use my degree for good.” Vasquez said becoming involved with the Hispanic Outreach and Leadership Alliance (HOLA) employee resource group at NNS helped lessen the culture shock of moving from Florida to Virginia, which has a considerably smaller Latino community. “It’s a good resource, especially if you’re fairly new to the company or don’t have family or friends in the area. It’s a good way to meet new people. They’re willing to help and make the transition as easy as possible.” As the nation celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month, Vasquez said it’s important for shipbuilders to recognize that everyone – no matter their background – plays an important role. “Not everyone is the same. You have to respect the fact that people are going to have different opinions and come from different cultures,” he said. “You also have
to understand that being different doesn’t meant that someone can’t have good ideas. If you allow them to be themselves, you give them the opportunity to display their ideas and talents, which can improve things for everyone.” View Vasquez's poster on MyNNS or the NNS to Go app. Shipbuilders interested in sharing their story as part of NNS' Inclusion and Diversity campaign, should visit nns.huntingtoningalls.com/id-campaign-2018.

CVN 79 Engagement Champions Say Farewell to Summer with Ice Pops John F. Kennedy (CVN 79) engagement champions recently handed out 3,000 ice pops to employees in the North Yard. The CVN 79 Engagement Champion team, a subset of the Operations Division's new Engagement Champion Program, is made up of about 50 shipbuilders including craftsmen and craftswomen, foremen, construction supervisors and representatives
K47/X31 General Foreman Brian Holub and K47/X33 Lead General Foreman Tony Wilkerson, are the CVN 79 Engagement Champion lead and co-lead. “The opportunity to lead this team is very rewarding. Passing popsicles out to the men and women working hard on the CVN 79 Program created a lot of smiles today and that was what we set out to accomplish,” said Holub and Wilkerson. Lucas Hicks, vice president of CVN 79 Carrier Construction, is fully supportive of this initiative and encourages all engagement champions and employees to think outside of the box when it comes to improving engagement. “The CVN 79 Engagement Champion team has established several focus groups to improve on areas throughout our program such as, communication, employee recognition and quality of life. These teams are eager to get started and have innovative ideas. They are fully committed to this effort and are all in,” Hicks said.

New Crane Structurally Complete Newport News Shipbuilding’s new 315-metric-ton Goliath gantry crane is now structurally complete. On Tuesday, Sept. 25, crews performed a 47-ton lift to place the maintenance support crane on top of the main girders. This milestone is often referred to as the official “topping out,” and signifies the last lift needed to finalize the Goliath gantry crane’s structure. The maintenance support crane allows maintenance work to take place on the trolleys and machinery above the main crane. Its maximum lifting capacity is 15 tons. Additional testing of the entire structure will continue into early next year. The 315-metric-ton crane is expected to be operational in the second quarter of 2019. Watch a video of the lift on MyNNS.
