Today we would like to celebrate The US Navy’s birthday!
Today we would like to celebrate The US Navy’s birthday, recognized on the anniversary of the historic formation of the Continental Navy during the American Revolution, comes 2 weeks prior to Navy Day.

Navy Day was the original date for celebration of the U.S. Navy after research in the 1970’s revealed the ‘true’ birthday of the US Navy to be October 13th, and though this celebration officially was replaced by Armed Forces Day (Third Saturday in May for the U.S.) in 1949 and the Navy Day moved to the 27th of October. The celebrations for Navy Day continued, especially within the Navy itself and the date was officially changed back despite Navy day still being widely celebrated later in the month.

Until 11:00 GMT on the 19th of October
The premium USS Cowel (DD-547) destroyer is available for purchase in the game for Golden Eagles.
