NAS Norfolk

En muchas de mis entradas aparece esta Base Naval americana, la principal de la US Navy y relativamente cerca de la capital, Washington DC, la "Naval Station Norfolk", en Virginia.
Pero por si, a pesar que varias veces la he descrito, alguien todavía no la conociera lo bastante, paso a trasladar su descripción:

Naval Station Norfolk (IATANGUICAOKNGUFAA LIDNGU), is a United States Navy base in Norfolk, Virginia. It supports naval forces in the United States Fleet Forces Command,[2] those operating in the Atlantic OceanMediterranean Sea, and Indian Ocean. NS Norfolk, also known as the Norfolk Naval Base, occupies about four miles (6 km) of waterfront space and seven miles (11 km) of pier and wharf space of the Hampton Roads peninsula known as Sewell's Point. It is the world's largest naval station, supporting 75 ships and 134 aircraft alongside 14 piers and 11 aircraft hangars, and houses the largest concentration of U.S. Navy forces.[3] Port Services controls more than 3,100 ships' movements annually as they arrive and depart their berths.
