Navy Strategic Systems Programs (SSP) Director Vice Adm. Terry Benedict recently presented the SSP Director's Award to Patricia Fetter - a Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) principal scientist - for her 31-year career impact on the Fleet Ballistic Missile Strategic Weapons System program's success.
