Fleet Week NYC 2016

Fleet Week in New York City, now in its 28th year, is the city's time-honored celebration of the sea services. It is an unparalleled opportunity for the citizens of New York and the surrounding tri-state area to meet sailors, Marines and Coast Guardsmen, as well as witness firsthand the latest capabilities of today's maritime services.

The weeklong celebration has been held nearly every year since 1984, and it is anticipated that nearly 4,500 sea service members will participate this year. (Navy Region Mid-Atlantic Public Affairs)
