U.S. Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command has approximately 2,500 globally distributed military and civilian personnel, who collect, and exploit environmental information to assist Fleet and Joint Commanders in all warfare areas to guarantee the U.S. Navy`s freedom of operation in the physical battlespace from the depths of the ocean to the stars. The air, ocean, seafloor, stars, and time clearly matter for naval operations and our national security. Our forces provides home field advantage for our nation`s away team, the U.S. Navy. Through our people, capabilities, and innovation, we will expand on this advantage as we evolve into a critical component of a future holistic force. We consist of a ready force of well-qualified, well-educated and deliberately trained Sailors, civilians and contractors serving in a wide-range of operational, technical/scientific and service support billets around the globe. In addition, we provided accurate and timely knowledge of the current and predicted physical battlespace from the depths of the ocean to the stars - we provide data to decision makers. Lastly, we are the Department of Defense leader in innovating and transforming new technology into an operational advantage. An experienced early adopter of unmanned systems, we employ inventive ways to inform tactical decisions and depict information. We are a key component of the Navy`s innovative culture and a catalyst for future evolution, and we must outpace our competition to ensure American Forces retain a technical warfighting edge.

First settled in the 1600′s, it was not until March 3rd, 1894 that it became the Incorporated Village of Amityville. In its infancy, the “friendly bay village”, as it has come to be known, was primarily a farming community that had strong ties to the fishing and boating industries. Salt hay was an important agri-product that was grown to feed livestock. But the farms and marine industries slowly gave way to the needs of summer visitors in search of comforts afforded by the cool breezes and beaches of the Great South Bay. Hotels, long since gone, supplanted the farms and marine industries that were located along the waterfront. The hordes of summer visitors that discovered early Amityville included stage and theater personalities, prominent members of society including businessmen, artists, writers and the so-called “rich and famous” Manhattanites. Although within the geographical boundaries of the Town of Babylon, residents of the Village enjoy the benefits of a local police force, fire department and public works department. Residents are taxed by the Village for these services and by the Town and County for school taxes and other public services, such as trash removal. The Village is part of the Amityville Public School District. Within the Village boundaries, there are numerous parks and public spaces for all to enjoy. They include: • Village Triangle and Gazebo – on Broadway between Sunrise Highway and Merrick Road • Avon Lake – landscaped area at East and West Lake Drives • Delano Nature Trail – Union Avenue, East of Broadway • Edmund W. Pearsall Park – natural rest area on Bayview Avenue • James A. Caples Memorial Park – Southern end of Bayview Avenue, with a playground, lighted softball fields, boat ramp • Peterkin Park – Oak Street, with playground, pond and footpath • 9/11 Memorial Park – center of the Village on Broadway • Nautical Park – Southeast corner of Merrick Road and Ocean Avenue, waterside park with benches, paths and band-shell • Maxine Postal Memorial Park – Unqua Place on the Great South Bay, in memory of Legislator Maxine Postal, 15th Leg. District • Amityville Beach Complex – Southern end of Bayview Avenue, with concession stand, beach and fishing pier
