Event Description
You are cordially invited to a night full of traditions, fun, and comraderies!
The NASL Navy Ball Committee 2024 is honored to host this annual celebration of the Navy’s birthday onboard Naval Air Station Lemoore.
"On 13 October 1775, resolution of the Continental Congress established what is now the United States Navy. After the American War of Independence, the U.S. Constitution empowered the new Congress “to provide and maintain a navy.” Acting on this authority, Congress established the Department of the Navy on 30 April 1798. In 1972, Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Elmo R. Zumwalt authorized official recognition of 13 October as the birthday of the U.S. Navy. Since then, each CNO has encouraged a Navy-wide celebration of this occasion “to enhance a greater appreciation of our Navy heritage, and to provide a positive influence toward pride and professionalism in the naval service.”
