DAHLGREN, Va. (Oct. 19, 2018) – The time capsule at the Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) centennial grand finale. As participants celebrated Dahlgren’s impact upon the Navy and nation, the time capsule – ten 105 millimeter shells surrounding a 16-inch shell – was unveiled and all in attendance had the opportunity to write notes and share their thoughts with future generations. Dahlgren personnel can write notes to be placed inside the capsule until the end of 2018 when it will be sealed and opened on Oct. 16, 2068 at the command’s 150th anniversary.
