The beginning of our modern seapower and the de- velopment of the United States Navy spans back across the horizon of history to the dawn of time. For thousands of years man has sailed the seas. Around 400 rowing ships were employed to place men in hand to hand combat. Later on, ramming ships were developed. followed by sail- ing ships with cannons. Our Navy was born on May 10, 1797 when the frigate United States, a 44 gunner was launched at Philadelphia. The following September the Constellation and Constitu- tion, three-masted lrigates. enjoined the United States to fomi our first tleet. This was the beginning. Over the next hundred and fifty years improvements were made from guns, firing a six inch tweotytour pound ball six hundred yards. to pre- sent day missiles that can create utter destruction at any range: from sails to Stettlll and nuclear reactorsg and from wooden ships to floating steel cities. Today the United States Navy is composed of ships of many types. as an integrated team unit capable of strik- ing anywhere. anytime. in defense of our country and to insure the peace of the world. Free countries look to the might of the United States to protect and insure their lib- erty. Nations fighting for their freedom look to us for supplies and armed aid. and conquered peoples hopefully look for their release by the power of our might. The men of the United States Navy are proud of their role in this ever continuing struggle, for they know they are the symbol of the entire United States Navy, moving forward to remain the greatest naval force for peace in the world.
