Shipbuilder Honored with Security Star Award

Published January 29, 2025

Newport News shipbuilder Antonio J. Etheridge (E64) was recently selected for the Security Star Award for outstanding security performance and engagement. Competition was keen, however, Etheridge was a natural stand out among several competitors in both merit of performance and rendered security services. He is the primary department security representative (DSR) for E64.

This honor recognizes those who have demonstrated a strong commitment to help maintain the safety and security of our company, fellow employees and our nation’s warfighters.
