    Norfolk Naval Shipyard Lifting and Handling Department (Code 700) Rigger Shop (Shop 72) USS John Warner (SSN 785) project rigger Mike Byrum enjoys his job because it allows him to work with shipyard employees from multiple shops. “Shop 72 is a support shop vice a lead shop,” said Byrum. “A lead shop works on a specific skill and trade like the Pipefitter Shop (Shop 56), the Electronic Industrial Controls Mechanic Shop (Shop 67) and the Inside Machinist Shop (Shop 31), to name a few. As a support shop, Shop 72 takes care all of the lifting and handling needs that the lead shop needs for their jobs.”
