Welcome
to the Naval Historical Detachment - Baltimore website. The
mission of the Naval Historical Detachment is to authentically
recreate the appearance and activities of sailors who served our
county in the U.S. Navy and U.S. Coast Guard during the time of
World War II, as well as during the pre-war and post-war periods.
We strive to educate the public as to how these sailors lived, the
duties they performed, the ships and bases on which they served,
the tools of their trade, the missions they under took, and the
sacrifices they made.
