Naval Stations of the United States Navy
The United States Navy maintained a number of naval installations in New Zealand during the Pacific War of World War II. Many were built by the US Navy Seabees, Naval Construction Battalions, during as part of the Pacific War. New Zealand was used for staging and training troops before action and for R&R-rest and recreation after action. The Red Cross operated five dinning clubs. For the wounded, there were 19 hospitals in New Zealand that could handle up to 10,000 patients. Most Naval activities were at Naval Base Auckland and Naval Base Wellington. The bases were closed in 1944 as troops moved to more northern US bases.
