The Navy League will hold its annual Sea-Air-Space (S-A-S) Exposition at the Gaylord National Resort and Conference Center, National Harbor, Maryland, April 13-15, 2015.
S-A-S is an exceptional professional development opportunity for Navy personnel as it provides a valuable platform for engagement with a broad cross section of government, industry, academia and media representatives.
This year's theme is "50 Years of Maritime Excellence and Innovation."
The Department of the Navy (DON) Assistant for Administration has approved participation by DON personnel. Attendance is authorized for local Navy participants at no-cost. Details are included here: http://www.seaairspace.org/files/sas_conference_approval_v2.pdf.
The S-A-S website — www.seaairspace.org — contains registration details, a complete schedule of events, speakers and additional information, including transportation options. No-cost shuttle buses will run from locations throughout the Washington, D.C.-area, including the Pentagon, Office of Naval Intelligence and Crystal City.
