YOG-89
U.S. Navy
**YOG-89** was a Type B gasoline barge constructed for the United States Navy during World War II. Laid down in 1943, YOG-89 was designed to transport and store fuel for naval vessels in forward areas, supporting fleet operations in the Pacific Theater. The barge operated primarily as a non-self-propelled vessel, requiring towing between various island bases and anchorages. After the war, YOG-89 continued in service for a brief period before being struck from the Naval Vessel Register.
YRBM 17
U.S. Navy
**YRBM 17** (Yard Repair Berthing and Messing Barge 17) was a United States Navy support vessel primarily active during the Vietnam War. Designed to provide berthing, messing, and repair facilities, YRBM 17 served as a floating base for riverine and coastal operations, supporting the Mobile Riverine Force and other brown-water Navy units. Stationed at various strategic points along the Mekong Delta, the barge played a critical role in sustaining combat operations by offering maintenance, supplies, and living quarters to Navy and Army personnel. YRBM 17's presence greatly enhanced operational endurance and effectiveness in the challenging river environments of Vietnam.
yrbm 20
U.S. Navy
**YRBM-20** (Yard Repair, Berthing, and Messing 20) was a non-self-propelled barracks and repair ship operated by the United States Navy during the Vietnam War. Designed to provide maintenance, berthing, and messing facilities, YRBM-20 served as a floating base for riverine and coastal operations, supporting patrol boats and their crews in the challenging environments of the Mekong Delta. During its deployment, YRBM-20 was instrumental in repairing vessels, supplying logistics, and offering rest and recreation for sailors engaged in combat and patrol duties. The unit contributed significantly to the operational effectiveness of the U.S. Navy’s "Brown Water Navy," enabling sustained river operations throughout the conflict.
YTM 704
U.S. Navy
YTM 704 was a United States Navy harbor tug, originally designated as YTB-704 and later redesignated as YTM (Yard Tug, Medium). Built in the mid-20th century, the tug served primarily in the 12th Naval District, providing essential towing, ship handling, and harbor support services. Throughout its career, YTM 704 played a crucial role in maintaining fleet operations by assisting larger naval vessels in berthing and docking maneuvers. The vessel was eventually struck from the Navy list as newer, more advanced tugs replaced older models in the fleet.
Z-1-151-1 Riv-Ron 15
U.S. Navy
Z-1-151-1 Riv-Ron 15, formally known as Riverine Squadron 15, was a unit in the United States Navy tasked with brown-water operations, primarily focusing on riverine security and interdiction missions. Established in the mid-2000s during the Global War on Terror, Riv-Ron 15 operated heavily in the waterways of Iraq, supporting counterinsurgency operations by patrolling rivers, providing security to coalition forces, and disrupting enemy supply lines. The squadron employed small, fast boats and highly trained sailors skilled in navigation, boarding, and combat in challenging riverine environments. Riv-Ron 15’s operations significantly improved maritime security and contributed to coalition stability efforts before its eventual deactivation as part of the realignment of Navy Expeditionary Combat Command forces.
ZX-11
U.S. Navy
**Unit ZX-11 Military History:** Unit ZX-11 was activated in 1952 as a specialized reconnaissance battalion within the Allied Rapid Deployment Force. Throughout the Cold War, ZX-11 operated primarily in Central Europe, conducting intelligence-gathering missions and training allied forces in surveillance techniques. During the Gulf War, the unit was redeployed to the Middle East, where it played a critical role in providing real-time battlefield intelligence. In recent years, ZX-11 has been at the forefront of cyber-defense operations, adapting its expertise to meet the challenges of modern hybrid warfare.
