U.S. Navy Birthday
October 13, 2026
This annual observance commemorates the establishment of the United States Navy on October 13, 1775, when the Continental Congress authorized a few small ships. This day recognizes the courage and commitment of the Navy’s sailors and their pivotal role in defending America’s interests on the high seas. The U.S. Navy is a powerful force capable of projecting American interests across the world. It is responsible for protecting American interests at sea, maintaining freedom of navigation, conducting maritime operations, and promoting stability and security in international waters. The observance is an opportunity to honor the proud history and traditions of the Navy, its values of Honor, Courage, and Commitment, and to express gratitude for the service and sacrifice of its sailors, both past and present.
