Right now, the United States is busy readying for the ringing in of the New Year. We are free do so, in large part, because at the same time more than 100 U.S. Navy ships and more than 47,000 U.S. Navy Sailors are deployed around the world. Your Navy wishes you a fun and safe evening! We’re proud to operate forward to deter aggression, protect the nation, reassure our partners, and maintain the freedom of the sea — the basis for global prosperity. The Navy has the watch!
