Located on the central coast of South Vietnam, Qui Nhon provided an operating base and logistic center for the Navy’s Coastal Surveillance Force during the Vietnam War. With easy access to coastal waters and the shipping lanes of the South China Sea, the port was well placed to support the Market Time anti-infiltration operation. NAVSUPPACT DET. QUI NHON was one of the first bases established to support the forces Operation Market Time, which began in 1965. Market Time is responsible for patrolling and maintaining surveillance in the coastal zones of South Vietnam. The base was officially titled in May 1966 upon the commissioning of the U.S. Naval Support Activity, Saigon. During the years of operation the command has enjoyed a fine reputation for providing the maintenance, administrative, and logistic support that is required to keep the operating forces in an outstanding condition of readiness. NSAD is the northernmost of U.S. Naval Support Activity, Saigon's detachment. It is located on the southern end of Phuoc Mai Peninsula across the bay from the city of Qui Nhon and about 250 miles northeast of Saigon.

These forces include Inshore Undersea Warfare Group I unit 3, a harbor Defense Command with varied types of boats; North Central Coastal Surveillance Center, the operational control center for coastal operations; and various other Naval and Coast Guard craft and activities.
