==History==
Sidemore Station was established on 10 January, 2017 as part of an initiative to start several proto-stations outside of the continental US, in an effort to grow the organization.<ref name="ND17JA06">[[Naval Directive 17JA-06]]</ref> Upon establishment, the only vessel assigned to it in its initial iteration was the ''Falcon''-class Destroyer {{hms|Peregrine|DD-1291}}. However, this was soon joined by another Destroyer, this one the ''Wolfhound''-class {{hms|Hellhound|DD-446|hcn}}<ref name="BSD170501">[[BuShips Directive 1705-01]]</ref>; this chapter was soon thereafter upgraded to the ''Saganami-C''-class {{hms|Hawk|CA-428}}.

In 2021, the situation had changed rather significantly: {{hms|Peregrine|DD-1291}} recomissioned in Toronto, Ontario as of early October, 2020, putting it within two hours' drive of {{hms|Hawk|CA-428}}. Further, due to the events of 2020, remote activities became the primary method of interaction for the members of most chapters, but especially these two. As a result, Sidemore Station was reinstated so as to aid the administrative tasks in maintaining and growing this connection.<ref name="ND21JA02">[[Naval Directive 21JA-02]]</ref>
