US Navy Blue Angels
Welcome to the 2022 Blue Angels' season! Since 1946, they have been privileged to represent the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps to audiences throughout the U.S. and abroad as they showcase the excitement and power of naval aviation. Their team consists of 140 world-class, active-duty Sailors and Marines, each one bringing experience and expertise from their service in the Fleet. They are honored to serve as home front representatives of the more than 800,000 active-duty, reserve, and civilian men and women currently serving worldwide.
