Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Daryl Caudle is in Philadelphia, the birthplace of America’s Navy, to celebrate 250 years of sea power at the Navy 250 Gala — one of many events honoring this historic milestone. From the ships first built along the Delaware River to today’s most advanced fleet, our Navy has stood the watch for two and a half centuries, ensuring peace through strength. As Adm. Caudle reminded guests, the Navy’s future is being forged every day; in the Foundry, across the Fleet, and wherever our Sailors stand ready to Fight and win when our nation calls. Happy 250th Birthday to the United States Navy — forged in Philadelphia, ready for the future. #Navy250 #FoundryFleetFight #PeaceThroughStrength
