Units (commands) of theUnited States Navy are as follows. The list is organized along administrativechains of command (CoC), and does not include theCNO 's office or shore establishments.
Deployable/operational U.S. Navy units typically have two CoCs – theoperational chain and theadministrative chain. Operational CoCs change quite often based on a unit's location and current mission.
For example,USS Roosevelt is always administratively assigned to Commander,Naval Air Force, Atlantic Fleet (CNAL). It might also be operationally assigned to CNAL early in its inter-deployment readiness cycle (IDRC). Before 2010, later in the IDRC, it would have been assigned to Commander,Second Fleet , which is responsible forCarrier Strike Group (CSG) training and operations on the east coast. Once the CSG deploys and crosses over the inter-UCC boundary in the mid-Atlantic, it then reports (is "chopped") to theSixth Fleet (responsible for European waters and theMediterranean Sea ). Once the CSG enters theSuez Canal , it "chops" to theFifth Fleet for operational control. Operationally, theRoosevelt CSG chain of command is: Commander Fifth Fleet, CommanderU.S. Naval Forces Central Command , CommanderU.S. Central Command ,United States Secretary of Defense ,President of the United States .
