The MTB Training Center Melvill was at Melville, Rhode Island on Narragansett Bay.

MTB Training Center Melvill had buildings for 34 classrooms, PT maintenance, and 197 huts for living quarters.

Motor Torpedo Boat Repair Training Unit was staffed by 30 officers and 950 enlisted men.

Gunnery training at the Anti-Aircraft Center took place a Price's Neck on Newport's Ocean Drive.

After the war most PT boats were scrapped due to the lack of need and the vast fuel use of the three engines, thus the base was closed under the command of Naval Station Newport in November 1945.

[6][7][8] Today part of the base is the Melville Marina and Safe Harbor New England Boatworks and fuel depot.
