KITTERY, Maine (October 09, 2026): Today, we recognize and celebrate the 251st birthday of the United States Navy.
For more than two centuries, the Navy has defended our nation, protected freedom of navigation, responded in times of crisis, and maintained a forward presence around the globe. That enduring mission depends on the dedication, expertise, and professionalism of the Sailors, civilians, contractors, veterans, and families who support the Fleet.
At Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, our workforce plays a vital role in ensuring our Navy remains ready to fight and win. Through the work performed each day, you sustain the ships and capabilities our nation relies upon. Your commitment to safety, quality, schedule, and mission accomplishment directly supports the readiness of the Fleet.
Thank you for your continued dedication to the Navy, the Shipyard, and our nation.
Happy 251st Birthday, United States Navy.
