Navy Day 2024

It has been seven years since Naval Gazing started up, and it is once again time to celebrate both the US Navy and the fact that I keep finding things to write about.

The big event this year was our second meetup in New England, which was amazing. Thanks to everyone who came. I'm currently planning to do next year's back at Iowa. Check back here around the start of 2025 for more details. We should have the same catering crew, and an in-depth look at the greatest ship ever built.

Beyond that, things have kept chugging away. The Discord continues to be a good place to hang out, the blog keeps publishing (and will do so) and while the book has been on hold for a while, I hope to get back to it soon. Thanks to those who contributed posts in the past year, Suvorov, the Fatherly One, John Olsen and theredlamb. As always, Said Achimiz deserves credit for hosting, and for fixing various problems. My appreciation to all those who have commented and aren't spammers, because that's a lot of why I keep doing this. And thanks as always to Lord Nelson for putting up with me.

As is traditional, let me know if you have any suggestions for the next year. I make no promises, but if there's something interesting, I will try to get to it, or at least put it on the list. And thanks to you all for reading.
