Seabees deployed in both initial invasions of the [[War in Afghanistan (2001-2021)|Afghanistan War]] and [[War in Iraq|Iraq War]]. All active and reserve NMCBs and NCRs were deployed to building to work on civil [[infrastructure]].<ref name="NHHC-CB2">[https://www.history.navy.mil/research/library/online-reading-room/title-list-alphabetically/u/us-navy-operation-enduring-freedom-2001-2002.html Seabee History: The US Navy in Operation Enduring Freedom, 2001–2002: 18 Aug. 2017, NHHC, Official U.S. Navy web site]</ref> One of the most visible tasks assigned to the NCF was the removal of statues of [[Saddam Hussein]] in [[Baghdad]].

In Afghanistan, the Seabees' main task was the construction of multiple [[forward operating base]]s. NMCB 133 deployed to FOB [[Camp Rhino]] and help build [[Kandahar Airfield]] where a detention facility was constructed as well.<ref name="NHHC-CB2"/>

Since 2002, Seabees have provided civic action support in the Philippines,<ref name="NHHC-CB2"/> most notably near [[Abu Sayyaf]]'s jungle training area in the southern Philippines. Seabees work with Army, Marines, and Air Force under the Joint Special Operations Task Force - Philippines.<ref name="NHHC-CB2"/>

Seabees have supported the [[War on Terror]] ever since the invasion with numerous deployments over the years.
