Support Center Kodiak

Support Center Kodiak, located on Kodiak Island, Alaska, traces its origins to World War II, when it was established as a key U.S. Navy base to defend the northern Pacific approaches and support operations in the Aleutian Islands. After the war, the installation transitioned to the U.S. Coast Guard, becoming one of the branch's largest bases and serving as a vital logistics and support hub for maritime operations in Alaska’s challenging waters. Over the decades, Support Center Kodiak has provided essential maintenance, supply, housing, and administrative services for cutters, aircraft, and personnel engaged in search and rescue, law enforcement, and environmental protection missions. Today, it remains a cornerstone of Coast Guard operations in the North Pacific, ensuring mission readiness and support for units safeguarding the region.
