    The Hampton Roads Naval Museum had its volunteer ship builders in its gallery this morning. Lee Martin and Pat Roll, both members of the Hampton Roads Model Ship Society and volunteer with the museum on a weekly basis. Both have been working on a detailed model of the USS Constitution for the past several months, and are always happy to show their work to visitors and museum staff members alike.

It celebrates the long history of the U.S. Navy in the Hampton Roads region of Virginia and is co-located with Nauticus in downtown Norfolk, Virginia.
