Hello, Sailor! It’s Fleet Week 2016
I'm disappointed in myself that I have yet to attend a Fleet Week. Could this be my year?! Who knows? What I do know is that New York City is hosting it's annual Fleet Week when NY celebrates the sea services. Units and ships from The US Navy, US Coast Guard and US Marine Corps doc in New York City. The Service men and women then get to let loose and hang out.
While the service men and women get to tour the city they also provide the public with an inside look as to what they do on a daily basis. Community members are able to tour the ships and watch presentations all Memorial Day weekend long.
You can follow New York Fleet Week on Twitter and Facebook. If you're looking for a full schedule of events for Fleet Week, when ship tours start or when certain presentations visit the Official Fleet Week website.
Happy Memorial Day! Make sure to take a minute out of your weekend to remember all those who served and thank those who are currently serving.
