Background

On September 16, 1953, it was newly reorganized by the National Safety Agency's Coastal Safety Force with the mission of protecting the West Sea. When the Sasebo District Force was reorganized, the Coastal Security Force had nominated Sasebo from the beginning, but after the Pacific War, Sasebo City planned to transform into a peaceful industrial city under the Former Military Port City Conversion Law. Therefore, it was not always active in attracting guards. Imari City had been actively campaigning to attract guard bases there. Hoping to attract the force suddenly increased in Sasebo City, and they decided to provide the site of the former Navy Defense Force (Hizukushimachi), which had started to be developed as a fishery base. Eventually, Tokutaro Kimura, Commissioner of the Japan Coast Guard, visited Sasebo and Imari, and decided to set up a guard base in Sasebo.

The security area is west of Yamaguchi Prefecture on the Tsushima Strait and the Sea of Japan side, and west of Kagoshima Prefecture on the Pacific side. Fukuoka Prefecture, Saga Prefecture, Nagasaki Prefecture, Kumamoto Prefecture, Kagoshima Prefecture and Okinawa Prefecture, and the boundary between Shimane and Yamaguchi prefectures are drawn at 315 degrees from the intersection with the coastline. From the point where the border between Ube and Yamaguchi intersects with the coastline, the line where the border between Fukuoka and Oita intersects with the coastline, and the border between Miyazaki and Kagoshima intersects with the coastline. The coastal waters of these prefectures between the 170 degree line.[1]

The main duties are security and defense in the security area in charge, disaster dispatch, logistical support for front units such as the Self Defense Fleet, removal and disposal of naval mines and explosive dangerous goods, and civil-military cooperation.

The force of the ships belonging to the Sasebo District Force consists of the 43rd Mine Warfare Force, deployed in the 3rd Missile Boat Corps and the Shimonoseki Base Corps, and the 46th Mine Warfare Force, deployed in the Okinawa Base Corps. As a force user (responsible for dealing with situations), they operate escort vessels and rotorcraft and provide the escort fleet and aviation groups to deal with situations.

In recent years, Hayabusa-class patrol boats have been deployed in sequence to prepare for craft ships to North Korea. In addition, on March 26, 2019, the Aiura Garrison Sakibe Branch was established in the Sakibe area, where the Ground Self-Defense Force Amphibious Rapid Deployment Brigade Combat Landing Battalion is stationed.
