The Navy vessels assigned to the Assault Craft Unit ONE detachment at Naval Reserve Center Orange are special in their own right. Called boats instead of ships because of their size and affectionately referred to as "Mike" boats by those who love them, the Landing Craft, Mechanized plays a vital role in the Navy's amphibious assault mission. The ACU-1 detachment in Orange is one of four detachments located around the country and operates two of the fourteen craft for which ACU-1 is responsible.
