About

Welcome to Naval Station (NAVSTA) Newport—home to 50 Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard
and US Army Reserve commands and activities. Newport is the Navy’s premier site for training officers, officer candidates, senior enlisted personnel and midshipman candidates, as well as testing and evaluating advanced undersea warfare and development systems. Naval personnel assigned to Newport come from all parts of the United States and many free nations of the world. The naval installation mirrors a miniature America, flavored with an international touch. Both its military and civilian personnel get deeply involved in local community affairs and play active roles in local churches, service clubs, Sea Cadets, Boy Scouts, and other popular youth activities. Approximately 5,800 employees work at the 50 various commands located on Naval Station with an additional 17,000 students annually passing through one of the many schools on base. Naval Station Newport has undergone a period of significant growth as a result of the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure recommendations. NAVSTA is now home to the Navy Supply Corps School, the Center for Service Support and the U.S. Marine Corps Aviation Logistics School, all formerly located in Athens, Ga. The mission of Naval Station Newport is to fulfill the diverse requirements of its tenant commands by providing the facilities and infrastructure that are essential to their optimum performance. NS Newport will ensure that the highest standards of the Navy are incorporated into its efforts; that all tenant commands will benefit from its continuous improvement; and that all hands will work together to earn and maintain its reputation as the Navy’s world-class Center of Learning Excellence.
