Carrier Air Wing One (CVW-1) is a United States Navy aircraft carrier air wing based at Naval Air Station Oceana, Virginia, with most of its various squadrons also home based at NAS Oceana.

Environmental contamination from wastes stored in 3 landfills was detected in 1986, and since 1993 the site has been on the National Priorities List of Superfund sites.  Numerous remedies and long term monitoring of ground water are in place.  Since 2005, over 600 acres have been transferred to the affected towns for reuse, and in 2011 the Navy signed a $25 million contract to transfer its remaining land. The Grand Prairie Armed Forces Reserve Complex (formerly Naval Air Station Dallas or Hensley Field) is a former United States Navy Naval Air Station located on Mountain Creek Lake in southwest Dallas.  The installation was originally established as an Army Aviation center, and eventually became home to aviation assets from all the military services.  The facility was decommissioned as a naval air station in December 1998 pursuant to BRAC action and the extant Naval Air Reserve, Marine Air Reserve and Texas Air National Guard flying units (wings, groups, squadrons) relocating to the nearby former Carswell AFB, which was concurrently transferred to U.S. Navy custody via the Base Realignment and Closure Commission action and renamed Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Fort Worth / Carswell Field. CNRSE's motto is "Where the Atlantic Fleet and the Navy's Air Training Command come to train", It gets this motto from the fact that its installations are home to both the Naval Air Training Command located at Naval Air Station Corpus Christi and Naval Education and Training Command, which has its headquarters at Naval Air Station Pensacola.  The region's installations also host the United States Navy Flight Exhibition Team, more commonly known as the Blue Angels, which for a brief stint in the late 1940s were under what was then the NAval Air Advanced Training Command.
