The birthday of the 250-year-old U.S. Navy is coming. And the community in Kitsap County — home to the third largest Naval shore installations in the U.S. and many aircraft carriers and submarines — has started to celebrate the legacy of the sea power with gratitude for those who served.

On Friday, Sept. 26, leaders from the Navy, the Bremerton-Olympic Peninsula Council, U.S. Navy League, and community members gathered at the Puget Sound Navy Museum in Bremerton to celebrate the American Navy's 250th anniversary.
