    WAKEFIELD, R.I. -- Yeoman 3rd Class Stephanie Cortez, Naval Station Newport; Capt. Nick Rapley, Commanding Officer of the Navy Supply Corps School (NSCS); Lt. Stephen Astafan and Chief Petty Officer Andrew Johnson, both also assigned to NSCS, transfer a 200-lb. piece of metal from the USS Arizona from a FedEx delivery truck, into its new home. It arrived this morning directly from Hawaii and was transferred with R.I. State Police Headquarters to the museum. The historic artifact will remain the centerpiece of a display in the museum dedicated to education, preservation, honoring and inspiring others to never forget the sacrifices made by millions during WWII.
