On October 13 1775, the Second Continental Congress authorized the raising of the Continental Navy. And today, our Navy celebrates its 235th Birthday. Make sure to send a card or make a cake!

The United States Navy is the naval warfare service branch of the United States Armed Forces, and one of the seven uniformed services of the United States. The U.S. Navy is the largest in the world.

Besides sending a card, make sure you take some time today to thank all those who have served and who currently serve.
