Today is the anniversary of the United States Navy's presence in the Far East, beginning March 1, 1822.
The Asiatic Fleet was formed in 1902, reestablished in 1910, and continued serving until 1942. Through years of unrest and disturbance, the fleet protected American lives and interests along the China coast and the Yangtze River, bearing responsibilities in diplomacy and defense. The fleet also assisted civilian areas devastated by the forces of nature and by internal warfare.
The Asiatic Fleet was disbanded in 1942 and replaced by the US Navy Pacific Fleet.
