Destroyer Squadron 32 (DESRON 32) is a United States Navy unit with a history dating back to World War II. Originally commissioned in 1943, the squadron played a significant role in Pacific operations, supporting amphibious assaults and providing vital anti-submarine and anti-aircraft defense. Over the decades, DESRON 32 has participated in major conflicts, including the Korean War, Vietnam War, and various Cold War operations. Today, based at Naval Station Norfolk, it oversees and deploys modern guided-missile destroyers, maintaining readiness for global maritime security and fleet operations.
