This year marks the Navy’s 249th Birthday — a time to celebrate naval heritage, longstanding naval dominance, and our greatest asset, our people.
The central theme of this year's celebration is “Warfighting Strength and Readiness,” which highlights viewing the Navy’s mission through a warfighting lens to deliver decisive combat power. Beginning with its establishment in 1775 and continuing to the current modern fleet, the Navy has answered the nation’s call to service time and again.
Today, the U.S. Navy celebrates 249 years of bravery, dedication, and service. On this special day, let's acknowledge those who serve tirelessly. Have you ever wondered about famous personalities who served in the Navy?

🎥 This is how we returned an iconic symbol of one of the most notable US Navy shipwrecks 107 years after it sunk...
Earlier this year, our Salvage and Marine Operations (SALMO) team recovered a World War I destroyers bell near the Isles of Scilly using a state-of-the-art remotely operated underwater vehicle built in Yorkshire.
Following its recovery, we had the pleasure of presenting the bell of USS Jacob Jones to Admiral James W. Kilby, the US Navy’s Vice Chief of Naval Operations, in a ceremony at Lancaster House, London. The bell that was salvaged is intended for display in the future new National Museum of the US Navy. 🇺🇸
From cook to estate manager, Georges Labaki evolved under the US Navy's wings. Through perseverance and constant growth, he became a leader who values trust and the human aspect of service, making everyday life easier for naval officers.

The newest issue of Naval History Magazine is online (and arriving in mailboxes and at newsstands), and with it my column on the American schooner Experiment and it's service in the Early American Navy. After columns on Intrepid, Panay, and now Experiment, it's becoming more and more apparent how important small combatants have been to the U.S. Navy during prior eras.

America remains safe and secure thanks in large part to the Naval Special Warfare community. But this is not without significant sacrifice from these warriors and their families.

So proud of my classmate, company mate, and friend RADM Jim Waters for the impact he is making on the fleet and our nation as he leads U. S. Navy recruiting.
I have been recruiting for nearly thirty years and observed three effective recruiting concepts in this post that I wanted to share with you to help you recruit talent. Feel free to share what you or your organization have done that aligns with these concepts in the comments section.
1) Recognition is a great way to tell your organization's story as you recruit talent. How can you follow this example and, by recognizing those in your group who have achieved success and highlight those joining it, attract prospective talent? Video is such a great vehicle yet I have noticed most organizations do absolutely nothing with this potent and cost-effective tool to tell their story and attract talent. Does your organization have a YouTube channel dedicated to sharing testimonials via video?
2) Joseph Campbell, the legendary scholar on mythology, talks about how "myth" is what morivates us. The story, what Campbell calls "the myth", is what he describes as a "field of reference." The myth of the Navy and the Marine Corps is something you do not just learn about as a midshipman at Annapolis, but something you experience for four years and become a part of. It is the same thing for every sailor and marine going through boot camp. The ritualistic and challenging indoctrination becomes a rite of passage to embark on the adventure to join the myth and become part of the lore.
3) Ceremony and ritual is something that much of our society has lost yet is an important facet of the human journey and is a very attractive concept, especially to young people who have no ritual in their lives. Rituals enable us to physically manifest our commitment to the myth and help us commit more deeply to it. What rituals have become part of your organization's story? How can you follow this example and create traditions and rituals that bring your team together and become part of your lore?
Bravo Zulu to the Navy recruiting team and also to Navy Football for another win over Army! Go Navy!

At the Army-Navy game today and proud to stand with CNO, MCPON, and the USMC Commandant as SECNAV swore in 20 Future Sailors and 20 Future Marines.
Great to witness these young Americans commit to serve their country in front of so many….and it was so awesome to be there on the sideline for the 31 to 13 Navy victory!
Go Navy!!
