Naval Base Guam is a strategic U.S. naval base located on Apra Harbor and occupying the Orote Peninsula. In 2009, it was combined with Andersen Air Force Base to form Joint Region Marianas, which is a Navy-controlled joint base. The Ship Repair Facility, Guam, was located next to Naval Base Guam, along Apra Harbor. It was closed in 1997, due to the recommendation of the 1995 Base Realignment and Closure Commission. Naval Base Guam is home to Commander Submarine Squadron 15, Coast Guard Sector Guam, and Naval Special Warfare Unit One, and supports 28 other tenant commands. It is the home base to dozens of Pacific Command, Pacific Fleet, Seventh Fleet, and Seabee units. USS Frank Cable is stationed in Guam to tend the submarines of the Seventh Fleet, and USS Emory S. Land changed from Naval Support Facility Diego Garcia to Naval Base Guam to fulfill the same role. Coast Guard Sector Guam ships include USCGC Sequoia and including USCGC Myrtle Hazard, USCGC Oliver Henry, USCGC Frederick Hatch, and USCGC Washington.
