NS Newport Rhode Island
Naval Station Newport is a US Navy base located between the towns of Newport and Middletown, Rhode Island. It was established in 1883 as a Torpedo Station after the naval technological advances of the Civil War. It has since become the Newport Naval Complex and home to the Navy Education and Training Center. Naval Station Newport is the only active military base located in Rhode Island.
Newport is home to the Naval War College and was once home to the Cruiser Destroyer Force Atlantic. It now houses inactive ships of the United States Navy and active vessels maintained by the United States Coast Guard.
Due to the Base Realignment and Closure 2005 Commission’s inclusion of the base, it has received additional tenant units including the Officer Candidate School and the Naval Supply Corps School.
