WASHINGTON NAVY YARD (Oct. 13, 2021) Retired U.S. Navy Vice Adm. Al Konetzni, Navy Museum Development Foundation (NMDF) Board President, speaks to audience members at the National Museum of the U.S. Navy (NMUSN) during a ceremony celebrating the Navy’s 246th birthday. During the ceremony, the Secretary of the Navy 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.
