Navy League of the United States Philadelphia COUNCIL
A Proud Honor for the Navy League of the United States - Philadelphia Council
The Navy League of the United States, Philadelphia Council is honored to serve as the Commissioning Committee for the USS Harrisburg.
Serving as a Commissioning Committee is a tremendous responsibility and a meaningful opportunity to support our Navy, the ship’s crew and their families, and the proud tradition of commissioning a new United States Navy warship.
The Philadelphia Council has a long history of supporting our Sea Services and has previously had the honor of participating in the commissioning of USS Somerset (LPD-25) and USS John P. Murtha (LPD-26) including the USS Wayne E. Meyer (DDG 108).
We look forward to working alongside the Navy, the ship’s leadership and crew, community partners, and supporters as we prepare for this important milestone.
More details regarding the USS Harrisburg commissioning will be
shared as plans develop.
