“Be so good at whatever you do – that when you’re gone, we miss you.”

This single phrase rang true during Norfolk Naval Shipyard’s (NNSY) Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day Celebration Jan. 16. Hosted by the African American Employee Resource Group (AA-ERG), this annual event brought hundreds of employees together to honor the life and achievements of the late civil rights activist ahead of the annual holiday in January. Award-winning journalist and author Don Roberts took to the stage as the guest speaker for the event, sharing his poetic verse regarding Dr. King and sharing his insights on how Dr. King’s influence continues to inspire people to this day.

We may have turned to the 2025 calendar, but Shop 06 is not yet done adding to their safety flag collection for 2024! Congratulations to NNSY’s Facilities and Equipment Maintenance Shop (Shop 06), winner of the September 2024 Safety Flag—their fourth flag for the year! Shipyard Commander Captain Jip Mosman congratulated shop members and presented the flag Jan. 8. The shop had no injuries or lost workdays for the month. Through a focus on safer facilities and equipment, as well as improved work practices and modeling shipyard C.O.R.E. (Care, Ownership, Respect and Excellence) values, Shop 06 is continuing to set the standard for shop safety at NNSY. “Congratulations and phenomenal work on this earning this award!” said Mosman. “It takes all 10,000-plus of us to meet our mission. You can see in the news what’s happening in the world and how things are changing. Each one of us contributes to the defense and support of our Nation. Thank you and I look forward to a great 2025!” At the event, Joseph Stevens, Curtis Fennell, Cody Tucker and Nino Cloyd were recognized with individual certificates of appreciation for their efforts in contributing to a safer workplace.
