Navy Cuts Ribbon on New Conservation Lab

摘要

The Naval History and Heritage Command (NHHC) Conservation Branch officially opened its new, state-of-the-art artifact conservation lab during a ribbon cutting ceremony 1 May. Located at NHHC's Collection Management Facility (CMF) in Richmond, Virginia, the conservation lab now gives the Navy the ability to perform complex scientific conservation work on many of its more than 300,000 historic artifacts, a service that previously had to be contracted to civilian conservators.
