Before coming to Norfolk Naval Shipyard 14 years ago, Insulation Shop (Shop 57) Insulator Barry Belcher worked in the auto glass industry. “Every time I started training a new apprentice in the auto glass industry, I told them, ‘As young as you are, you should go work at the shipyard because they have better benefits,’” said Belcher. “One by one, I kept losing apprentices to the shipyard. Then one day, someone told me, ‘You should take your own advice.’ That’s when I decided to come work at Norfolk Naval Shipyard to receive the better benefits I always told the auto glass industry apprentices about way back then.”
