DESCRIPTION:Ryan Szimanski\, curator of the Battleship New Jersey Museum an
 d Memorial\, discusses the impact Theodore Roosevelt had on the United Sta
 tes Navy during his political career. When he took over as Assistant Secre
 tary of the Navy\, the United States Navy couldn't fulfill its mission as 
 a coast defense force\, but by the end of his presidency\, the Great White
  Fleet proved the Navy could project power around the world. We will look 
 at the expansion of the Navy and how the policies started by President Roo
 sevelt continue to influence naval policy today.\n\n \n\nVeterans Affairs\
