Salvage Sailor Posted June 23, 2018 Share #50 Posted June 23, 2018 PLANKOWNERS - US FIFTH FLEET Reactivated 1995 Carrier Group Three - USS ABRAHAM LINCOLN (CVN-72) - CARRIER AIR WING ELEVEN (CVW-11) Three Star Rank Prior to the first Gulf War in 1990-1991, U.S. naval operations in the Persian Gulf region were directed by the Commander, Middle Eastern Force (COMMIDEASTFOR). Since this organization was considered insufficient to manage large scale combat operations during the Gulf War, the United States Seventh Fleet — primarily responsible for the Western Pacific and Indian Ocean and normally based in Japan — was given the temporary task of managing the force during the period. However, no numbered fleet existed permanently within the USCENTCOM area of responsibility. By July 1995, a new numbered fleet was deemed necessary. After a 48-year hiatus, the U.S. Fifth Fleet was reactivated, replacing COMMIDEASTFOR, and it now directs operations in the Persian Gulf, Red Sea, and Arabian Sea. Its headquarters are at NSA Bahrain located in Manama, Bahrain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
