Naval stations are permanent military installations where a navy bases its ships, personnel, and operations.
They typically include harbors, docks, repair facilities, and administrative headquarters: The Pacific Fleet is headquartered at the naval station in San Diego.
Larger stations may support entire fleets, while smaller ones serve specific functions like training or supply.
