  • Admiral Scott Powell: The Texas Navy Association & Preserving the Texas Navy
    2024/09/13

    Texian Navy Day 2024 https://www.texasnavy.org/event-5812705

    I sit down with the President of the Texas Navy Association, Scott Powell & discuss a few aspects to the Texas Navy Association. Scott is a commissioned Admiral in the Texas Navy, only made possible by the Governor of Texas.

    Today, the Texas Navy exists primarily as a symbol of historical pride and maritime heritage rather than a functioning military force. It is maintained and celebrated through the nonprofit organization The Texas Navy Association, which works to preserve its legacy and educate the public about the Navy's historical significance to Texas.

    Key efforts include organizing events like Texian Navy Day, supporting museums like the Texas Maritime Museum, and promoting historical preservation projects, including those involving notable vessels. These initiatives help keep the spirit of the Texas Navy alive and honor its contributions to Texas history.

We delve into the complex dynamics of rapidly intensifying hurricanes and the implications for evacuation plans in vulnerable areas like the Houston-Galveston corridor. Learn about the innovative Fortified Project by Smart Home America and how resilient building practices are becoming essential in combating coastal flooding.

    We wrap up with inspiring stories of resilience from both local and international communities, drawing lessons from extreme weather events worldwide. Dr. Needham shares his vision for Galveston's future, emphasizing the city's potential to lead in flood resiliency and technological innovation.
