The Navy League has grown to become the foremost citizens' organization to
serve, support, and stand with all the U.S. sea services -- the Navy, Marine
Corps, Coast Guard and U.S.-flag Merchant Marine.

- To foster and maintain interest in a strong Navy, Marine Corps, Coast
Guard and Merchant Marine as integral parts of a sound national
defense and vital to the freedom of the United States.
- To serve as a means of educating and informing the American people
with regard to the role of sea power in the nuclear age and the
problems involved in maintaining strong defenses in that age.
- To improve the understanding and appreciation of those who wear the
uniforms of our armed forces and to better the conditions under which
they live and serve.
- To provide support and recognition for the Reserve forces in our
communities in order that we may continue to have a capable and
responsive Reserve.
- To educate and train our youth in the customs and traditions of the
Navy, the Marine Corps, the Coast Guard and the Merchant Marine
through the means of an active and vigorous Naval Sea Cadet Corps.
