NSA DET NHA BE

NSA DET NHA BE was a United States Navy support detachment located at Nha Be, South Vietnam, during the Vietnam War. Established under the command of the Naval Support Activity (NSA) Saigon, the detachment provided crucial logistical and supply support to riverine and coastal operations, including the Mobile Riverine Force and Operation Game Warden. The base at Nha Be was strategically situated near the junction of key waterways southeast of Saigon, making it an essential hub for fuel storage, maintenance, and riverine craft support. NSA DET NHA BE operated throughout much of the conflict, contributing significantly to the sustainment of Navy and allied operations in the Mekong Delta until the drawdown of U.S. forces in the early 1970s.
