The Naval Station Norfolk, in Norfolk, Virginia, is a base of the United States Navy, supporting naval forces operating in the Atlantic Ocean, Mediterranean Sea, and Indian Ocean. This Navy Base, occupies about 4,300 acres on a peninsula known as Sewell's Point. It is the world's largest Naval Station, based on supported military population. When the 75 ships and 134 aircraft homeported here are not at sea, they are alongside one of the 14 piers or inside one of the 11 aircraft hangars for repair, refit, training and to provide the ship's or squadron's crew an opportunity to be with their families. NS Norfolk is homeport to aircraft carriers, cruisers, destroyers, large amphibious ships, submarines, a variety of supply and logistics ships, C-2 Greyhound, C-12 Huron and E-2 Hawkeye fixed wing aircraft squadrons, and CH-46 Sea Knight, MH-53 and CH-53 Sea Stallion, and SH-60 Seahawk and MH-60 Seahawk helicopter squadrons.
One other milestone in NAS's history occurred in 1968 when the station assumed a major role in putting a man on the moon. The air station became Recovery Control Center Atlantic, providing command, control and communications with all the ships and aircraft involved in the recovery operations of Apollo 7.
