Welcome to the website of the Tampa Bay Commandery of the Naval Order of the United States. We are a small group anxious to bring this new Commandery to life and come together to recognize our maritime history. We encourage anyone in the Tampa Bay area to contact us and see if this could be a fit for you.
As the Commander of the newest Naval Order Commandery, Tampa Bay, I’d like to invite you to our next meeting.
We gather bi-monthly to continue the development of our new Commandery.
A lot of you haven’t experienced the camaraderie of our new commandery in Tampa Bay yet ~ what’s keeping you from coming out and sharing stories of your naval service with all of us? Please consider stopping by, sharing a drink and a tale. I look forward to seeing those I’ve seen before and meeting the rest of you!
Please join us on 6 February 2024 @ 11:00 hours for a special tour of the American Victory Ship, lunch, and a guest speaker.
Location:
705 Channelside Drive
Tampa, FL 33602
If interested in joining our new Commandery, I encourage you to contact me via email at tampabaycommander@navalorder.org or by phone at 941-323-5184.
Best regards,
Jim Hoey
Commander
