Camp Allen Camp Allen, is a small United States Marine Corps base in Norfolk, Virginia, a satellite of the Naval Station Norfolk. In 1942 the Chief of the Bureau of Yards and Docks wanted the first Seabee training center close to an existing Naval training facility with Norfolk being chosen because of the available land that could be purchased. On 25 March 1942 the Commandant of the 5th Naval District announced that the U.S. Naval Construction Training Center, Naval Operating Base Norfolk had been commissioned 4 days prior. The base was named Camp Allen in memory of the CEC Captain Walter H. Allen founder of the naval construction regiment at Great Lakes Naval Training Center during WWI. It is now home to both the 1st and 3rd Fleet Antiterrorism Security Team (FAST) Companies. The base also houses a supply warehouse, battalion aid station, and a motor transport unit. All units are members of the Marine Corps Security Force Regiment, headquartered aboard Naval Weapons Station Yorktown.
