MA2(SW/AW) Justin Hastings, from the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN-69) re-enlisted today aboard the USS Wisconsin (BB-64) in front of members of his family and his command. His father, Lieutenant Commander Todd Hastings, from NORAD/US Northern Command, was the re-enlisting officer. The Wisconsin is one of four Iowa-Class Battleships, and she is moored permanently next to the Hampton Roads Naval Museum as a museum ship. The re-enlistment ceremony was hosted by the museum; which coordinates the use of the ship for military ceremonies free of charge for area commands. The museum is one of ten museums within the Naval History and Heritage Command. To inquire about setting up a military ceremony aboard the USS Wisconsin or in the museum’s gallery, contact their Special Events Coordinator, Tom Dandes at Thomas.Dandes@navy.mil or at (757) 322-3106.
