The Bluejackets represented the United States Navy's "Fleet City" facilities located near Dublin, California, which included Camp Parks, Camp Shoemaker, the Receiving Barracks, and a Navy Hospital.[1] The team compiled a 6–4–1 record.[2]

The 1944 Fleet City team was coached by Jack Malevich, who played college football at Catholic University in the 1920s.[1][3] Tracey Kellow, who played for the 1935 TCU team that won the Sugar Bowl, was an assistant coach.[1]

The team played its home games at Forster Field, named in honor of base commander O. N. Forster, who was described as a "rabid fan" of the team.[1][2]

Key players included Pro Football Hall of Famer Joe Stydahar, College Football Hall of Famer Bob Suffridge, and halfback Bill Schroeder, who later played in the NFL.[3][2]

In the final Litkenhous Ratings, Fleet City ranked 54th among the nation's college and service teams and 12th out of 28 United States Navy teams with a rating of 85.5.[4][5]
