WASHINGTON NAVY YARD (Oct. 13, 2021) Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro and Musician 1st Class Madilyn Crossland, assigned to the U.S. Navy Band, cut the Navy birthday cake outside of the National Museum of the U.S. Navy (NMUSN) during an event celebrating the Navy’s 246th birthday. During the ceremony, Del Toro thanked the Navy Museum Development Foundation for its kind offer to lead a national campaign to raise funds for the future NMUSN. The intended location for the new NMUSN is outside the Washington Navy Yard’s security perimeter, which will give the public unrestricted access to U.S. Navy history and heritage.
