Virtual Exhibits

Past Navy Memorial exhibits are retained virtually on our Website. See what's currently on exhibit.

Navy Medicine Exhibit

The U.S. Navy Medical Department touches the lives of every Sailor, every Marine, and every one of their loved ones. Men and women of Navy Medicine work tirelessly around the globe to promote good health in peace and to save lives in war. Through historic images, videos, and uniform displays, the exhibit presents the role of Navy doctors, dentists, nurses, Medical Service Corps officers, and hospital corpsmen, as well as their many achievements.

Blue Angels Exhibit

The Navy Memorial's exhibit on the Blue Angels traces the sixty-year history of the Blue Angels, from their formation at the end of the Second World War to their current role as international ambassadors of good will. Also included in the exhibit are pictures and descriptions of the various aircraft used by the Blue Angels throughout the demonstration team's lifespan.

Strategic Systems Exhibit

The development of nuclear weapons and Soviet advances in rocket technology initiated an urgent drive to create a viable ballistic missile system that would serve as a deterrent against a nuclear attack on the U.S. The national command structure entrusted RADM William F. "Red" Raborn with the charge of overseeing a seemingly impossible task: to create a ballistic missile that could be fired by a submarine, underwater, and could find its target up to 1,500 miles away.
