NAVAL SUPPORT ACTIVITY SOUDA BAY, Greece (July 18, 2022) File photo captioned, “USS Tallahatchie County (AVB 2) was sent to the Mediterranean in mid-1962 to provide immediate support for the establishment of expeditionary air bases. From 1962 to 1969, Tallahatchie County was the single U.S. fleet unit operating locally at Souda Bay, Crete, Greece. This was the first step taken by the United States Navy in supporting forward-deployed SIXTH Fleet units from this far eastern Mediterranean island.” Naval Support Activity Souda Bay is an operational ashore base that enables U.S., Allied, and Partner nation forces to be where they are needed when they are needed to preserve security and stability in the European, African, and Central Command areas of responsibility.
