The 40th Annual Navy SEAL Museum Muster and Music Festival
Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the Navy SEAL Museum
It is with humble gratitude that the Museum approaches its 40-year benchmark: 40 Years of Fort Pierce.
In 1981, the idea for a museum dedicated to the men who trained on the beaches of Fort Pierce was born. Retired SEAL Captain Norman Olson was brought onboard to turn the dream into a reality. With typical SEAL fortitude and ingenuity, Captain Olson was able to get the Museum off the ground on a shoestring budget. The Navy SEAL Museum opened on Veterans Day, 1985. Once the site of a museum for pirate treasure, the building now honors the Navy SEALs and their predecessors.
From a collection of artifacts donated from attics and old trunks, the Navy SEAL Museum now displays vehicles, vessels, tactical equipment, and weaponry from the earliest days of Naval Special Warfare to today’s multifaceted global operators and headline conflicts.
Navy SEALs and their forerunners have been writing history since day one. The Museum is honored to share the pieces of the story that can be told with the proud citizens of our country and with the world.
Now, more than ever, our mission remains relevant and steadfast—with the opening in San Diego and an ever-expanding international presence. We celebrate and reflect on the place where it all began.
When you visit the Navy SEAL Museum in Fort Pierce, Florida, you are doing more than supporting our mission—you are becoming a part of it.

Tim Szymanski
Admiral USN (Ret.)
Tim is a native of Wilmington, Delaware. He graduated from the United States Naval Academy in 1985. He holds a master’s degree in Joint Campaign Planning and Strategy from the Joint Forces Staff College. He retired on February 1, 2022 and served in many Navy and joint special operations assignments as a Navy Special Warfare Officer (SEAL) for over 36 years. He served as the Commander of Naval Special Warfare prior to his final assignment as Deputy Commander for United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM).
Szymanski graduated from Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL (BUD/S) Class 161. He served at SEAL Delivery Vehicle Team TWO, Naval Special Warfare Development Group in multiple roles including Deputy Commander, Bureau of Naval Personnel as Officer Community Manager for SEAL officers and Enlisted Community Manager for SEALs, EOD and Divers, Joint Staff J3 Deputy Directorate for Special Operations and Pakistan Afghanistan Coordination Center, Special Operations Joint Task Force-Afghanistan as Deputy Commanding General for support, and at Joint Special Operations Command as Assistant Commanding General.
He commanded Special Boat Team TWENTY-SIX in Panama, SEAL Team TWO, an O-6 level Joint Task Force in Afghanistan, Naval Special Warfare Group TWO, and Naval Special Warfare Command.
As Deputy Commander USSOCOM and Commander NSW, he spearheaded force design and development initiatives, led organizational culture reviews and implementation plans, and developed leaders throughout the force. After 20+ years of sustained combat operations for Naval Special Warfare and special operations, and keenly aware of the detrimental effects of invisible wounds on force and family readiness, he established policies and programs to baseline, monitor, protect and enhance warfighter brain health as well as programs for special operations members transitioning from the Service.
Tim and his wife Marci of 40 years have two sons and two grandsons and reside in New Braunfels, Texas.
