 | | In addition, the base supports more than 70 tenant commands including, Commander Navy Region Northeast, Commander Submarine Group 2, Naval Submarine School, Naval Submarine Support Facility, three submarine squadron staffs, and the housing and support facilities for more than 21,000 civilian workers, active-duty service members and their families. |
