    Norfolk Naval Shipyard Metal Forging Shop (Shop 11F) Metal Forger Jesse Dalton was first introduced to blacksmithing when he was 12-years-old. “I started playing World of Warcraft and the character I created was a blacksmith,” said Dalton. “At the time I didn’t know everything a blacksmith did, so I started Googling and found it very interesting. This led me to become a member of the Tidewater Blacksmiths Guild, learning how to blacksmith seven years before enrolling in NNSY’s apprenticeship program for metal forging.”
