JNS Daniel Launtceur was named for the [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] naval officer who assisted with the creation of much of [[Arcerion]]'s modern surface warfare doctrine, rooted in the [[Second Great War]]. His participation in the drafting, acceptance, and implementation was only second to his role as one of the combat officers on His Majesty's Arcerion Ship ''Tusk'', a light cruiser that conducted surface raids and actions against [[The Cape|Capetian]] vessels during the [[Second Great War]]. To date Daniel Launtceur is the only non-[[Arcerion|Arcer]] officer to receive the Arcerion Order of Merit (AOM) for wartime actions with the [[Royal Arcerion Naval Service]]. | |||
The base was originally built during the [[Bourgondii-Loa Wars]] as a minor retrofitting station in [[1837]]. At the conclusion of that conflict the station was all but abandoned but, its ownership remained in the hands of the [[Navy of Burgundie]]. In the [[First Great War]] it was reactivated, but its facilities were too archaic for it to be useful, so it served primarily as a barracks and training ground for local militias. After the conclusion of the [[First Great War]] it was loaned to the [[Revenue Guard]] as a Lifesaving Station. It served in that role until the [[Second Great War]] when a massive construction effort was made to allow for deeper draft ships to dock. New piers were constructed and modern radio relays were installed. These improvements were the last major reconstruction of the base until it was retrofitted for the [[Arcerion]]'s in [[2024]]-[[2029]]. Many of the smaller berths were back-filled to allow for easier replenishment of larger ships and for the dredging of fewer, deeper channels. New radars, and datalinks were installed as well as demolishing all of the facilities on the base and building them to a modern standard. The work was conducted by [[O'Shea Infrastructure and Design]] and many of the materials used were purchased from [[Estia-Odoneru Gypsum, Salt, and Aggregate]]. | |||
As part of the the [[2033 Arcer Armed_] Forces Act]] the base is under construction, increasing its largest berth to accommodate the ''Kurst'' aircraft carrier group, as well as a host of replenishment vessels, merchant marine expeditionary support ships, and maritime aircraft such as helicopters and transports.
