abstract
| - SNMG1 consists of 4 to 6 destroyers and frigates, with the Royal Canadian Navy, the Deutsche Marine (German Navy), the Koninklijke Marine (Royal Netherlands Navy), and the United States Navy each contributing 1 ship on a permanent basis. These are joined periodically by ships from Italy, Belgium, Denmark, Norway, Poland, Portugal, and Spain. The force operates, trains and exercises as a group, providing day-to-day verification of current NATO maritime procedures, tactics and effectiveness. Ships are usually attached to the force for up to six months, on a rotating basis. Units of one nation do not necessarily relieve ships of the same nation. The force commander and the staff are appointed for one year, with the force commander rotating among the participating nations. Since 30 May 2013, the force is under the command of Commodore Henning Amundsen flying his flag in the Norwegian frigate HNoMS Fridtjof Nansen (F310).
