STGCM(SW/IUSS) Andre A. Delarosa, from the USS Paul Ignatius (DDG-117) re-enlists in a morning ceremony held in front of family and members of his command aboard the USS Wisconsin (BB-64). The Wisconsin is an Iowa-Class Battleship that is moored permanently next to the Hampton Roads Naval Museum in Downtown Norfolk, Virginia as a museum ship. The iconic turret #1 is a popular re-enlistment venue for area commands. Military Ceremonies aboard the ship are coordinated through the Hampton Roads Naval Museum’s Special Events Coordinator, Tom Dandes, and are done at no cost.
