Naval Security Group Activity (NSGA) Bremerhaven was a United States Navy signals intelligence unit established in Bremerhaven, Germany, during the early years of the Cold War. Activated in 1951, the unit’s primary mission was to conduct communications intelligence (COMINT) and electronic surveillance operations focused on monitoring Soviet and Eastern Bloc military activities.
