I am applying to this naval museum and I passed the first interview but I am trying to get ahold of the new manager in charge. The first interview was almost 4 months ago and the position I wanted just re-opened.
Is it okay for me to call and re-send the resume even though they may have it on file?

Not only is it okay, I recommend it. Changes in contact information or staffing are both very good reasons to update your resume and contact information with an employer you admire.
In this case, management has changed, your submitting a new resume assumes nothing about the record keeping of the former management, it is just your opportunity to re-express yourself. In fact, if you can stop by in person and introduce yourself to the new manager to drop off the resume and express interest all the better.
Good luck! I hope you get the opportunity you want!

you can but don't hold out any hopes. if it was 4 months ago then then they already hired someone for it. meaning you weren't what they were looking for. chances are with a new manager things could be different since obviously whoever it was they hired didn't work out. otherwise the position wouldn't be open again. doll up your resume big time. Hell, even hand deliver it to the manager yourself. that will show your true interest in the position and may garner you some extra brownie points for doing so.

Dont wait, just go ahead and email it. If possible, call them the next day and tell them, you saw this position on website and want to apply for it. Ask for the HR person who's dealing with this position, I worked in HR so I know each HR cntact is assigned only few positions and not all. Then get that person's email id and re-send the resume if they didnt receive your resume yet. Dosnt hurt. Go for it and do good.

How badly do you want the job?
I personally would send it again if I really wanted the job. It seems to me that they may have hired someone that didn't work out and have posted a new listing.
Most companies may keep your resume' but rarely will they take them back out and review them.
If you send a resume' and it doesn't catch the H/R persons attention as soon as it is looked at normally it finds its way to the garbage.....................

Yes, but send it directly to the new manager with a personalized cover letter. Explain what you can contribute to the organization and ask to interview directly with her or him.
Good luck!

Absolutely!!!! Make sure you modify it (even with one sentence) and have in your letter that you wanted the hiring manager to have the most up-to-date info on your capabilities.
Send it send it send it!!!
