ANCHORAGE, AK (Jun 20, 2025) Finished lumber branded with the “SHP” seal rests on-site, awaiting packaging and delivery for final assembly during a bed-building project led by Sleep in Heavenly Peace and supported by U.S. Navy Seabees as part of Navy Week Anchorage 2025.
The branding signifies the nonprofit’s mission—ensuring no child sleeps on the floor in the community they serve—while marking the lumber as ready for its next phase: being built into a bed in a home that needs it.
Navy Week is a nationwide outreach program organized by the United States Navy to connect with communities that do not typically have a significant Navy presence. Held in cities across the country, Navy Week brings in Sailors from multiple commands to participate in public events, educational activities, and community service projects. The goal is to educate the public about the Navy’s mission, capabilities, and the critical role it plays in national defense and global maritime security. Through demonstrations, ship visits, school engagements, and media outreach, Navy Week fosters a greater understanding and appreciation of the Navy’s contributions while strengthening the bond between the Navy and the American people.
Naval Construction Group One (NCG 1) is homeported in Pt. Hueneme, California, and leads and manages the overall capability and readiness of its Naval Construction Regiments (NCRs), Naval Mobile Construction Battalions (NMCBs), Construction Battalion Maintenance Unit (CBMU), and Underwater Construction Team (UCT). NCG 1 provides the required engineering support that the Navy and Nation need to construct and maintain base facilities, repair battle-damaged facilities, conduct defensive operations as required, and to meet disaster preparedness and recovery missions.
