My visit to Philly Shipyard, Inc. last week was a powerful reminder of how vital our Mariners and industry sealift partners are to national security. Their skills and dedication fuel our defense readiness, and I'm proud to stand with them.
On 11/15 DOT Maritime Administration honored Mr. Lucas J. Heckler (a 99-year-old veteran) with the Congressional Gold Medal, Atlantic War Zone Medal, Honorable Service Button, Mediterranean-Middle East War Zone Medal, Pacific War Zone Medal, Victory Medal and the Presidential Testimonial Letter.
Last week, General Jacqueline D. Van Ovost, Commander of U.S. Transportation Command, toured Philly Shipyard and heard briefings on the Vessel Construction Manager construct, showcasing its proven success with the recent delivery of NSMVI.
