The U.S. Navy Is 'Re-Branding' Itself



USNI News: Navy Recruiting’s New Tagline ‘Forged by the Sea’ Launches Saturday

“Forged by the Sea” – the Navy’s new recruiting tagline – is being unveiled Saturday in a commercial scheduled to air during the second quarter of the annual Army-Navy football game.

This idea behind this new tagline, which is part of a larger branding effort being launched during the football game, is to represent what the Navy’s top recruiter is calling “the aspirational outcome of every sailor’s journey in uniform.”

The “Sea to Stars” commercial airing during the CBS broadcast showcases a variety of Navy platforms, such as a submarine, an aircraft carrier, a guided-missile destroyer, a Littoral Combat Ship, an unmanned aerial vehicle and special operations sailors, including a team in SCUBA gear exiting a submerged submarine.

1. "A NAVY OF ONE."
[too close to army slogan]


2. "Off We Go...
Into The BIG BLUE WAVY!
:-D
--Join the US Navy--"
[possibly too childish]

3. Whole slogan consists of entire song and dance of 70s song "YMCA" but with "NAVY"
[too challenging to make letters N; ditto V (confusion with Y); possibly too gay or, not gay enough--more study needed.]

The song first chosen but nixed by some higher up:

SHIP AHOY
SAILOR BOY
DON'T FORGET
YOUR DINGHY
