* The United States Navy bombarded the town's shoreside buildings during the Civil War.

The opening of Kings Bay Naval Submarine Base in 1979 brought with it a healthy infusion of new residents to complement the hospitality industry-based population. As of 2002 the Kings Bay workforce included more than 9,000 military and civilian personnel. As a growing retirement and bedroom community, however, St. Marys has been able to withstand the population losses associated with these changes to the local economy.
