Hull Maintenance Technician 2nd Class Nicholas Scherer makes a TIG weld on a SCUBA bottle storage wrack at Pearl Harbor Detachment Guam in Apra Harbor, Guam, July 30, 2026. The detachment serves as the lead maintenance activity for forward-deployed submarines in the Western Pacific, helping to close critical repair gaps and maintain fleet readiness in the region. Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard & Intermediate Maintenance Facility’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)
