Hurry up and wait! Just one of the thousands of US Navy Popular Slogans, Names and Mottos you will run across almost every day.
Remember those days of endless lines and hurrying to something only to find out that you didn’t need to hurry at all?
You have driven down the street and seen this car or truck with a cool US Navy slogan. Maybe it was one US Navy motto for your warship or possibly just a funny name of a duty station you have either been at or witnessed one of your fellow sailors commenting about. Either way there are hundreds of US Navy bumper stickers that adorn our cars, trucks, RV’s, boats and similar vehicles that display with pride the serious or the witty ways used to describe some experience associated with the United States Navy.
Some of these mottos, slogans or names can make funny as hell US Navy shirts. We have seen it. It’s true.
Maybe you have gone on search for the size nine yellow tire stretcher, the keys to the vapor locker or some other god forsaken mission that had no hopes of success and you want to memorialize it on a Navy bumper sticker. Below are just a few Navy slogans and Navy mottos that ring with familiarity and bring a smile to your face. Others might make you cringe when you think of your personal hell you experienced when sleeping on a US Navy submarine torpedo. Either way you have got to admit these Navy slogans are fun. Below are just a few to look through and have fun with.
