DAHLGREN, Va. (April 24, 2018) - U.S. Rep. Jody Hice, (R-Ga.), shakes hand with Dale Sisson, Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) deputy technical director, moments after Sisson presented Hice with the NSWCDD Centennial Coin in commemoration of the command's 100 years of research and development accomplishments. Throughout his tour of NSWCDD facilities, Hice saw the command's capability to develop and integrate complex warfare systems, including the ability to incorporate electric weapons technology into existing and future fighting forces and platforms. The official opening of business for Dahlgren began with the firing of the 7" Tractor Gun on October 16, 1918. Since June 1918, when President Woodrow Wilson signed a proclamation to acquire nearly one thousand acres to create the original ordnance proving ground during World War I, through today, Dahlgren has served as the center for the scientific research and development that led to hundreds of patents, innovations, and scientific breakthroughs for the U.S. Navy. Each week, NSWCDD posts new content for the public to learn more about the many people, places, and amazing projects that the command and this base has produced over the last century: http://www.navsea.navy.mil/Home/Warfare-Centers/NSWC-Dahlgren/Dahlgren_Centennial/.
