NOAA ship Thomas Jefferson partipates in National Maritime Day

On Friday, May 22, NOAA ship Thomas Jefferson participated in the 76th annual National Maritime Day celebration. This national observance recognizes the service of merchant mariners and the sacrifices made by many to deliver goods to the American people. 

A special tribute was paid by the Hampton Roads maritime community to NOAA's scientists, professionals, NOAA Corps officers and wage mariners - all of whom work diligently to support safe commerce on America's oceans, coasts, and Great Lakes.

The ceremony began with a memorial service featuring a wreath-laying from the bow of the Thomas Jefferson and a special low-altitude flyover tribute from NOAA’s WP-3D Orion Hurricane Hunter aircraft. Read the full story at the National Ocean Service site.
