Naval Station Norfolk (NAVSTA Norfolk), formerly Naval Operating Base (NOB) Norfolk, is a United States Navy installation located in the Sewells Point area of the city of Norfolk, in the southeastern corner of the Commonwealth of Virginia. It is the world's largest naval station and is the home port for 75 ships and home base for 134 aircraft. NAVSTA Norfolk supports the operational readiness of the US Atlantic Fleet by providing facilities and services to enable mission accomplishment. NAVSTA Norfolk is the headquarters of the US Navy's Fleet Forces Command, occupying about 4 miles of waterfront space and 11 miles of pier and wharf space of the Hampton Roads peninsula, as well as 11 aircraft hangars at the adjacent operated Chambers Field, named in honor of Captain Washington Irving Chambers, USN (April 4, 1856 – September 23, 1934). The installation is also home to one of NATO's two Strategic Command headquarters, known as Allied Command Transformation (ACT).
