"...through
organization and cooperation with the Department of the Navy,
to encourage and aid American youth to develop, train them in
seagoing skills, and to teach them patriotism, courage, self-reliance
and kindred virtues."
- NSCC Charter - 36 USC 1541
Since 1958 the Naval Sea Cadet
Corps has been committed to providing American youth with
a drug and alcohol free environment to foster their leadership
abilities, broaden their horizons through hands-on training
and guide them to becoming mature young adults.
Sea Cadet organizations exist
in most of the maritime nations of the world. Recognizing
the value of these organizations in educating youth in maritime
matters, the Department of the Navy requested the Navy League
of the United States to establish a similar program for American
youth. The Navy League agreed to do so and formally established
the Naval Sea Cadet Corps (NSCC) and Navy League Cadet Corps
(NLCC) in 1958. Recognizing the importance and benefits of
the NSCC, Congress on September 10, 1962 federally incorporated
the Naval Sea Cadet Corps under Public Law 87-655 (36 USC
1541).

The
LONG BEACH Division has been training cadets since February,
10th 1962 when it was commissioned as the USS LOS ANGELES
Division. The unit was later renamed the LONG BEACH Division
in honor of the nations first nuclear cruiser the USS LONG
BEACH CGN-9. The LONG BEACH Division has had a long tie to
the Los Angeles area naval heritage. The unit first drilled
at the Los Alamitos Naval Air Station then later moved to
the Long Beach Naval Station. The unit's current home is Long
Beach Naval & Marine Corps Reserve Center, now known as
the Naval Operational Support Center Los Angeles. The center
is the last existing portion of the demolished Long Beach
Naval Station.
