As we celebrate another year of the Navy’s proud legacy, I want to take a moment to reflect on the remarkable men and women who serve this great nation, especially those away from home and in harm’s way. Your unwavering commitment and sacrifice allow us to enjoy the freedoms we hold dear.
To all our sailors—past and present—who have stood watch on the seas, I want to say thank you. We owe you a debt of gratitude that words can scarcely express. On this day, our hearts go out to the families who stand behind you, providing strength while you are far from home.
Today, as we honor this incredible milestone in U.S. Navy history, let us remember that the Navy’s strength is not just in its ships and technology but in the spirit, dedication, and resilience of those who serve. You embody the very essence of service, sacrifice, and duty.
Know that we stand with you, not just today but every day. Happy birthday to our U.S. Navy, and may you continue to navigate the seas, safeguarding peace and freedom.
With respect and admiration,
Bill Cullifer
Founder, Americans for a Stronger Navy
