We’re at the Navy Gateway Inn on Naval Station Newport. Tomorrow is the base Salute To Summer. Lots of activities and a huge salute to our military. All branches will be represented.

Post a picture of any coin, token, challenge coin, or even a scrap of wood from the hull of a famous US Navy frigate ( @ricko ).

A huge and heartfelt salute to our military!

    _I have a piece of deck wood from the USS Constitution.... And for all the time I was on my ship (USS Mills, DER383) it was out of Newport, RI.. Enjoy the festivities @Lazybones Cheers, RickO
