NAVAL TRAINING CENTER - LIBERTY STATION
VILLAGE LIGHTS PLAQUES
The Naval Training Center (NTC) Point Loma was established in 1923 as a basic training facility for enlisted personnel joining the U.S. Navy. As the largest U.S. Navy training facility on the West Coast during World War II, NTC transformed civilians into sailors by teaching essential naval skills. Hundreds of thousands of recruits passed through NTC during World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. The facility closed in the 1990’s and later transformed into “Liberty Station,” a mixed-use community with residential, commercial, cultural and recreational spaces.
