| - The United States Pacific Fleet is one of the largest fleets of the United States Navy in the world. It served as the key point of engaging Soviet and Chinese fleets and providing all fire support to friendly ground combat forces with their superiority firepower during World War III. The only US battleship that ever gives fire support to the US Fifth Battalion on Pine Valley Battle is the U.S.S. Missouri, it continued to support other US ground forces and attacking enemy forces until got sunk by a Soviet submarine. The Pacific Fleet's exploits of this war are currently unknown, though it was mentioned by the narrator that there was not much left of the Pacific Fleet to intercept the Chinese invasion fleet on its way to Seattle. This indicates that the remaining ships of the Pacific Fleet were protecting U.S. islands and atolls in the Pacific and Hawaii from the Soviet Navu, and should they have left, Hawaii could have fell to the Soviets.
- The United States Pacific Fleet (USPACFLT) is a Pacific Ocean theater-level component command of the United States Navy that provides naval forces to the United States Pacific Command. Fleet headquarters is at Pearl Harbor Naval Base, Hawaii, with large secondary facilities at North Island, San Diego Bay on the Mainland. A Pacific Fleet was created in 1907 when the Asiatic Squadron and the Pacific Squadron were combined. In 1910, the ships of the First Squadron were organized back into a separate Asiatic Fleet. The General Order of 6 December 1922 organized the United States Fleet, with the Battle Fleet as the Pacific presence. Until May 1940, the Battle Fleet was stationed on the west coast of the United States (primarily at San Diego). During the summer of that year, as part of the U.S. response to Japanese expansionism, it was instructed to take an "advanced" position at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Long term basing at Pearl Harbor was so strongly opposed by the commander, Admiral James O. Richardson, that he personally protested in Washington. Political considerations were thought sufficiently important that he was relieved by Admiral Husband E. Kimmel, who was in command at the time of the attack on Pearl Harbor. The Pacific Fleet was formally recreated on 1 February 1941. On that day General Order 143 split the United States Fleet into separate Atlantic, Pacific, and Asiatic Fleets.
