    RICHMOND, Va. (August 14, 2019) Karl Knauer, a conservator at Collection Management Facility, Naval History and Heritage Command, explains the various techniques used to conserve a name plaque from USS Mattaponi (AO 41) without changing it from its original state. The artifact will be a part of a new exhibit at the Hampton Roads Naval Museum entitled “The Ten-Thousand Day War at Sea,” highlighting the U.S. Navy’s involvement in the Vietnam War. The Conservation Branch is tasked with analyzing and conserving, as well as ensuring the proper care and preservation of the Navy’s historical artifacts such as ships’ bells, equipment, arms, ordnance, uniforms, personal equipment, and plaques.
