United States Navy Memorial

The United States Navy Memorial is proud to participate in the first-ever Donor-Advised Fund Day: a new day of giving that will change how the world sees DAFs, and who uses them, moving forward. As you know, gifts from a DAF -- and charitable contributions -- mean so much to us as we work to Honor, Recognize, and Celebrate the men and women of the Sea Services, past, present, and future; and to Inform the public about their service. We can’t have a successful DAF Day without you! We hope if you have a DAF, you’ll consider donating to The United States Navy Memorial. Thanks as always for your continued support of The United States Navy Memorial, and please feel free to reach out with any questions!

Congratulations to our Navy’s new chief petty officers! Today these leaders pin on their anchors, don their cover, and begin their journey as deckplate leaders of competence and character, who will shape our Navy’s culture. Our chiefs are charged to take care of our warfighters every single day and help them connect their dot to the mission of America’s Warfighting Navy, I have no doubt they will live up to that charge.

Navy Recruiting Command unveiled the Strike Group, a cutting-edge, multi-scenario, mobile mixed-reality experience that represents the latest innovation in the realm of U.S. military recruiting at the U.S. Navy Memorial this week! We were so pleased to work with Navy Recruiting and have loved seeing all of our visitors engage with this amazing technology and learn more about what it takes to join the Navy. The Strike Group experience was designed to showcase the breadth and depth of Navy STEM careers, from nuclear engineering and aviation to special warfare and medicine — a range of opportunities that no other military or private sector path can match. And through the use of leading-edge VR, the Strike Group provides users with a fully immersive, hands-on look into the technology and teamwork that are central to every role in the Navy. #NRC #NAVCRUITCOM
