Eric Csorba, a Vertical Launching System (VLS) canister and launcher support equipment engineering technician at Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division in California, holds a prototype tool that he designed in his home shop, seen here Dec. 14. The tool aims to help Navy sailors maintain MK 41 VLS latch rods, which secure the hatches that cover the launcher’s missile cells. (Photo provided by Eric Csorba)
