The Naval Station Newport (NAVSTA Newport) is a Naval Supply Corps School (in 2011[1]), and several other activities, to include a few Army Reserve units.[2]
Naval Station Newport provides the facilities and infrastructure essential to support the operations of tenant commands and visiting fleet units.
The station was home of the decommissioned USS Saratoga (CV-60) after the departure of the USS Forrestal (CV-59) which departed under tow for the inactive ship storage facility in Philadelphia (USS Forrestal (CV-59)#Decommissioning and fate).
On May 8, 2014, Naval Sea Systems Command announced that ESCO Marine, Brownsville, Texas, would scrap Saratoga for one cent.[4] Currently, the Rhode Island Aviation Hall of Fame is trying to move the decommissioned USS John F. Kennedy (CV-67) moored at Pier 2 at the station.[5]
