I’ve been sitting on this for a bit because I still find it hard to believe. I’m incredibly honored by the award. If you’re going to be at the USNI Annual Meeting, come say “Hi.” I’ll be the one with imposter syndrome. Thank you, @NavalInstitute @NavalHistoryMag

As America celebrates our 250th anniversary, we're reflecting on the people, communities, and moments that have shaped our nation’s history.

This year is especially meaningful for us as we celebrate 20 years of serving veterans, service members, and their families.​ ​

Anniversaries give us a chance to look back at how far we've come, honor those who helped us get here, and recommit to the next generation of heroes who have our backs.​​​

Wishing you a safe and happy Fourth of July.🇺🇸

Not all heroes play accordion, but the great ones do

Weird Al Yankovic pulled out of a commercial on which he was making a "nice pile of money" after discovering it was for AI.

“I’m not going to mention any names, but they told me it was for a business. It was business software that would increase productivity. I said, ‘Oh well, yeah, sure, I could do that.’ And then a week before we’re supposed to shoot it, I find out this is AI. And I thought, ‘Oh no, I can’t be the poster boy for AI, forget it.’ So I felt bad about kind of pulling out at the last minute. But yeah, I’m not down with that.”

The 8yo is wearing a bright orange suit for the school concert tomorrow. My wife didn’t get why I was so excited about it.

THIS MORNING: We are sending $40,000 in disaster relief funding to our local Hawaii #GotYour6 partner @ASYMCA.
This funding will help restock the ASYMCA food pantry hit hard by power outages and flooding on the islands. The dollars will also be turned into gift cards for families in need of gas, medications, baby formula and other critical supplies.
We set up our disaster relief funding process for moments like this, where it’s crucial to quickly get flexible resources into devastated areas.

Read the book. See the movie. Both are great.

March is Military Saves Month.
With tax season underway it’s a good time to remember that the path to financial stability is different for every service member and military or veteran family.
Through our partnership with @NavyFederal and alongside trusted relief partners @AERHQ, @NMCRS1, @AFASHQ and @MyCGMA we help connect our service members to emergency support and financial resources when their financial situation is unsteady.
