It takes a lot of technical training and community support to develop good Sailors and officers in the United States Navy.

To help Americans know more about great men and women in service, the U.S. Navy Office of Community Outreach travel the globe to collect photos of sailors at work and distribute them to their hometown media.

In this photo, shared in honor of Women's History Month, Lieutenant (junior grade) Cara Fisher, who is from Highland, Maryland, is looking at maps on the U.S. Navy ship, Ralph Johnson (DDG 114).

Cara is serving as the electrical officer on the Pre-commissioning Unit of USS Ralph Johnson and she is with Sailors that maintain and repair the ship's complex electrical distribution system.

She relishes the opportunity to lead, work with, and learn from other Sailors on the ship which will soon be commissioned.

In addition to Cara's duties as the ship's Electrical Officer, she also stands watch as one of the ship's three Officers of the Deck.

An officer of the deck is the person responsible to the commanding officer for the safe navigation of the ship as it sails the high seas.

Lt. j.g. Fisher is the daughter of an Army veteran and was raised near the United States Naval Academy.

During her junior year in high school, she attended a summer seminar at the Academy and fell in love with the institution.

Her family is immensely proud of her achievements as a Naval Officer, especially her 1-year-old niece that shouts out "ship" when asked where Aunt Cara is.

The female officer has over 20 family members and friends coming to support her at the ship's upcoming Commissioning Ceremony.

The city of Charleston, South Carolina, will serve as the commissioning site for USS Ralph Johnson (DDG 114).

The ship is named for Marine Pfc. Ralph Henry Johnson, a native of Charleston, who posthumously received the Medal of Honor for his heroic actions during the Vietnam War. Johnson used his body to shield two fellow Marines from a grenade, absorbing the blast and dying instantly in March 1968.
