Honoring the Great Devotions of America's War Veterans

Alexandria, VA. – In November of 1991, President George H.W. Bush reminded our nation during his Veterans Day speech that, "The United States will always be a force for peace in the world. But the peace we seek is a real peace. The triumph of freedom, and prosperity, not merely the absence of war. We can never know which war will be the last. But we take as our hope the prophecy of Isaiah, that “nations shall not lift sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore." And yes, we hope, we pray, that as the years progress, the face of war will recede into our distant memory. But the memory of our veterans and their sacrifice will never fade.”

No Shortage of Courage

Alexandria, VA. -- Tragedies can strike at any moment in carrying out the duties of the United States Navy. Every Sailor understands that an on-board fire can mean catastrophe. That is why the primary duty of every Sailor, aboard every Naval vessel, is firefighting.

Guiding America's Mightiest towards Compassionate Care

Alexandria, VA. -- It is well understood that the United States Armed Forces have been engaged in an all-volunteer war effort not seen since the American Revolution. Multiple deployments are demanded to meet operations tempo requirements. What may not be well understood is that too many of America’s bravest men and women are returning to combat with unseen injuries.
