WASHINGTON NAVY YARD (Oct. 13, 2021) Naval History and Heritage Command (NHHC) Director Samuel J. Cox, U.S. Navy rear admiral (retired), Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro, and Navy Museum Development Foundation (NMDF) Board President Al Konetzni, U.S. Navy vice admiral (retired), pose for a group photo at 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 NMDF 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.
