Naval Beach Unit SEVEN (NBU-7) functions as a Forward Deployed Naval Force (FDNF) command responsible for executing the manning, organizing, training, maintaining, and equipping of all Naval Beach Group ONE assets deployed or forward assigned in support of FDNF missions. NBU-7 contains a deployable headquarters element comprised of both sea and shore components.
 
We provide FDNF Beach Party Teams, Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC), and Landing Craft Utility (LCU) that are fully trained, properly manned, interoperable, well maintained, and combat-sustainable to conduct amphibious operations in the littoral environments. NBU-7 is homeported in Sasebo, Japan and embarks onboard USS Green Bay (LPD-20), USS Ashland (LSD-48), USS America (LHA-6), USS Rushmore (LSD-47), and USS New Orleans (LPD-18).

"Not perfection, excellence. Be ahead of the fight. Unify as a team to create success."
