Today, Thursday 13th October 2017 marks the 242nd birthday of the United States Navy (USN). The service has approximately 317,054 personnel on active duty and 109,671 in the Navy Reserve. It operates roughly 290 ships in active service and more than 3,700 aircraft as of October 2017. The U.S. Navy traces its origins to the Continental Navy, which was established during the American Revolutionary War and was essentially disbanded as a separate entity shortly thereafter. The 21st century U.S. Navy maintains a sizable global presence, deploying in such areas as East Asia, the Mediterranean, and the Middle East. Please feel free to wear your AFD military uniform tshirt today as a show of support for the men and women serving in this military branch. Semper Fortis!
