    Josh Burns, a sign painter with Ventura, California-based C.D. Lyon Inc., finishes painting the hull numbers on the port side of the Self Defense Test Ship (ex-DD 964) on Dec. 3 at Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division. The U.S. Navy requires a special type of paint to preserve the integrity of material — in this case, steel — against the harsh marine environment that could corrode it.
