Norfolk Naval Shipyard Lifting and Handling Department (Code 700) Rigger Shop (Shop 72) USS John Warner (SSN 785) project riggers Mike Byrum (right) and Laffon Brelland work together as they move a heavy lift transport (HTL) inside Dry Dock 3. “The cool thing about the 150-ton HTLs is that we can do things that haven’t been done before at the shipyard,” said Byrum. “For instance, we removed and reassembled the John Warner’s shaft which improved the process for a safer and more efficient way to maintain more control while performing this task.”
