Happy 83rd Birthday, Seabees
We Build, We Fight
Happy 83rd Birthday to the U.S. Navy Seabees!
Since March 5th, 1942, the Seabees have been living up to their motto: “We Build, We Fight”. From the battlefields of World War II to modern-day conflicts and humanitarian missions, these skilled warriors have been the backbone of military construction, engineering, and rapid response operations.
For 83 years, Seabees have built runways under fire, restored critical infrastructure in disaster-stricken areas, and stood ready to fight whenever needed. Their legacy is one of toughness, ingenuity, and determined service to our nation.
Today, we honor past and present Seabees for their incredible contributions to our national defense. Happy Birthday, Seabees!
