During the Vietnam War, the U.S. Navy was involved in a variety of operations to support American and allied efforts in Southeast Asia. Information on some aspects related to the Navy's operations in the Da Nang area during the war.

  1. Naval Support Facility (NSF) Da Nang: Da Nang, located in central Vietnam, was a crucial base for U.S. military operations during the Vietnam War. The U.S. Navy had a presence in Da Nang, and Naval Support Facility Da Nang served as a key logistics and support facility for naval operations in the region.

  2. Riverine Warfare: The U.S. Navy's Riverine Force operated in the inland waterways of Vietnam, including the Mekong Delta. PBRs (Patrol Boat, River) and other small craft were used for patrolling rivers and conducting interdiction missions.

  3. Brown Water Navy: The Navy's "Brown Water Navy" referred to its operations in the rivers and coastal areas of Vietnam. This included the use of patrol boats, riverine assault craft, and other vessels to control waterways and provide support for ground operations.

  4. Coastal Surveillance and Picket Duty: The Navy conducted coastal surveillance to interdict enemy smuggling and infiltration along the coast. While the specific term "Picket Boat Division" isn't commonly used, picket boats and other small craft may have been involved in coastal surveillance and interdiction missions.

  5. Mobile Riverine Force: The Navy and Army jointly operated the Mobile Riverine Force in the Mekong Delta region. This force utilized a combination of ships, boats, and ground troops to conduct operations in the delta.
