Jay Jenkins is the site director at Ingalls Shipbuilding's Gulfport Composite Center of Excellence. He says they're building the deckhouse and the hangar for the DDG-1000 program, both very, complex, very challenging composite structures to build. As the director, how does he do it? "I rely on the folks that work for me to do the hard work to solve the problems.  I'll get them the tools, I'll get them the materials, I'll be the roadblock buster," he says.
