In 1972, Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Elmo R. Zumwalt authorized official recognition of 13 October as the birthday of the U.S. Navy. Since then, each CNO has encouraged a Navy-wide celebration of this occasion “to enhance a greater appreciation of our Navy heritage, and to provide a positive influence toward pride and professionalism in the naval service."

Celebrate the U.S. Navy’s 250th Birthday in Style!

The Mid-South Navy Ball Committee is shaking things up this year! Instead of the usual t-shirts and hoodies, we’re offering something special — a LIMITED-EDITION JERSEY that you’ll be proud to wear and display.

“Mid-South” displayed on the front to represent our region.
Optional Customization: Add your name to the back!
Available in two styles: Stitched or Printed.

Whether you are active duty, retired, a family member, or a proud supporter — this jersey is a perfect addition to your collection!

All proceeds go directly to support the 2025 Navy Ball - helping the Mid-South Navy Ball Committee host an unforgettable event for this historic milestone.
