Navy Divers go where few can—into the depths of the sea to execute critical underwater operations that keep the Navy moving and missions on track. From salvaging sunken wreckage and repairing ships to retrieving astronauts from space capsules, they are the underwater problem-solvers of the Navy.

Equipped with state-of-the-art diving systems, they master everything from underwater welding to deep-sea salvage and submarine rescue. Whether securing harbors, clearing waterways, or operating alongside Special Operations teams, their skills are essential to keeping the fleet mission-ready anywhere in the world.

It’s a challenge few can meet—and even fewer can qualify for. If the sea is calling, this is how you answer.
