Naval Station Norfolk

Naval Station Norfolk is the largest naval base in the world and a major destination for U.S. Navy personnel traveling on TDY, PCS, training, or shipyard assignments. Located in Norfolk, Virginia, the installation serves as the primary homeport for the Atlantic Fleet and supports thousands of service members and civilian employees year-round.
