Happy 251st Birthday to the United States Navy!

For 251 years, the brave men and women of the U.S. Navy have stood watch over our freedoms with courage, honor, and sacrifice.

Today, we celebrate those who serve, thank our Navy veterans, and remember those who gave their lives in service to our nation.

At Wreaths Across America, we promise to REMEMBER, HONOR, and TEACH so their sacrifices are never forgotten.

For 200 years, Jefferson Barracks has stood as a place of honor, sacrifice, and remembrance.

Through every generation, it has served those who served our nation and provided a final resting place where families can reflect, remember, and honor the heroes who came before us.

200 years of serving Veterans and their families… with no end in sight.
