History[edit]
US intelligence operations have a long history in Hawaii. The attack on Pearl Harbor led to a push towards greater fusion of intelligence and operations throughout the Department of Defense. [1] This push created a need to establish new commands or reorganize existing ones. NIOC Hawaii has its roots in an underground compound created in the wake of the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Kunia Tunnel complex. Throughout the post war era, the Tunnel and the various organizations on the island of Oahu have gone through many changes. The modern NIOC Hawaii only began to take shape starting in 1980.
Naval Security Group Activity Kunia was officially commissioned November 14, 1980, at Wheeler Air Force Base, to serve as an integral member of the worldwide U.S. communications network, and to provide radio relay and secure communications for the defense of the U.S. and its allies. [2] NSGA Kunia provided cryptologic personnel, information, communications, and engineering installation services to support Pacific Theater and National warfare requirements. NSGA Kunia provided host support services to the Kunia Regional Security Operations Center.
U.S. Naval Security Group Activity (NSGA) Kunia and the U.S. Naval Security Group Activity (NSGA) Pearl Harbor merged commands in a ceremony September 30, 2004 at the USS Nevada Memorial, in Pearl Harbor, HI. NSGA Pearl Harbor was officially disestablished, and the U.S. Naval Security Group Activity (NSGA) Hawaii was commissioned.
On September 30, 2005, NSGA Hawaii was administratively closed and was re-established on October 1, 2005 as the Navy Information Operations Command (NIOC) Hawaii, Schofield Barracks, HI.
