Destroyer Squadron 14, now Commander Naval Surface Group Southeast (CNSG-SE), is the administrative Immediate Superior in Command (ISIC) for all Guided-missile destroyer that are homeported at Naval Station Mayport in Jacksonville, Florida.

CNSG-SE was established on 07 November 2023, and was previously CNSS-14 since 31 July 2015 by the merging of Destroyer Squadron Fourteen [1] and Cruiser Destroyer Readiness Support Detachment Mayport. CNSG-SE's roots thus go back to the establishment of the original DESRON Fourteen in 1920. [2]
