Founders Day

In 128 years a lot can change. What began as a gathering of a handful of engineers meeting at the Bureau of Steam Engineering on September 30, 1888 is now a nationwide society of the best and brightest in naval engineering. While the content of the Naval Engineering Journal (NEJ) may change, or perhaps symposia focus may shift, one thing that is consistent in ASNE is its members. From leaders in the military to leaders in industry, ASNE’s members are the beating heart of the society. On this 128th anniversary, we celebrate our members, past and present for shaping not only the history of the society, but of the world.

This month, Michelle Redmon, Membership and Graphic Design Manager, caught up with one of ASNE’s longest standing members, Henry J. Nardone, USN (Ret.). A dedicated member of 69 years, Nardone grew up in Westerly, RI. He attended or holds honorary degrees from University of Rhode Island, Yale University, Columbia University, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Nardone also has over 12 years of exemplary service in the Navy. Nardone recalls his most notable time in the Navy serving on the USS Nautilus, the Navy’s first nuclear submarine. It was also the first ship to steam under the polar ice to the North Pole in August of 1958.

Nardone emphasizes the benefits of membership throughout his life and career. From ASNE Day to the NEJ, Nardone attended symposia and was frequently published in the NEJ. Despite being a lifetime member, Nardone frequently donates to society, especially the ASNE Scholarship Fund. Nardone embodies the traits of most of our members. An engineer, a leader, a veteran, a scholar. ASNE is as great as its members. On behalf of the staff of the American Society of Naval Engineers, thank you. We look forward to another year of excellence.
