    Amy “Vessi” Sulunga, a rigging trainer at Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility, gives a safety brief to the Executive Leadership Development (EDP) Cadre A 2026 prior to conducting rigging training on March 24, 2026. The exercise provides a glimpse into the multi-year training pipeline that develops skilled riggers and gives future leaders a perspective of the craft that is a staple of shipyard life. PHNSY & IMF’s mission is to keep the Navy’s fleet “Fit to Fight” by repairing, maintaining, and modernizing the Navy's fast-attack submarines and surface ships. Strategically located in the heart of the Pacific, it is the most comprehensive fleet repair and maintenance facility between the U.S. West Coast and the Far East. (U.S. Navy photo by Kenny Jones)
