BOSTON (Sept. 30, 2022) Chief Gas Turbine Systems Technician (Mechanical) Adam Yenny poses with current and former Navy leadership after receiving the 2021 USS Constitution George Sirian Meritorious Leadership Award while underway aboard USS Constitution. The USS Constitution George Sirian Meritorious Leadership Award recognizes a chief petty officer who embodies former USS Constitution crew member George Sirian through their technical expertise, dedication, and leadership. USS Constitution, is the world’s oldest commissioned warship afloat, and played a crucial role in the Barbary Wars and the War of 1812, actively defending sea lanes from 1797 to 1855. During normal operations, the active-duty Sailors stationed aboard USS Constitution provide free tours and offer public visitation to more than 600,000 people a year as they support the ship’s mission of promoting the Navy’s history and maritime heritage and raising awareness of the importance of a sustained naval presence. USS Constitution was undefeated in battle and destroyed or captured 33 opponents. The ship earned the nickname of Old Ironsides during the war of 1812 when British cannonballs were seen bouncing off the ship’s wooden hull.
