MCB Camp Lejeune

 

Since September 1941, Camp Lejeune (luh-jern) has been the home of “Expeditionary Forces in Readiness”, and throughout the years, it has become the home base for the II Marine Expeditionary Force, 2nd Marine Division, 2nd Marine Logistics Group and other combat units and support commands.

There are several major Marine Corps commands and one Navy command aboard Camp Lejeune. Some tenant commands include Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, II Marine Expeditionary Force, 2nd Marine Division, 2nd Marine Logistics Group, and the naval hospital to name a few. Marine Corps Base owns all the real estate, hosts entry-level and career-level formal schools and provides support and training for tenant commands; II Marine Expeditionary Force conducts operational planning for Fleet Marine Force commands; 2nd Marine Division is the ground combat element of II MEF; 2nd Marine Logistics Group is the combat service support element of II MEF; and 2nd Marine Air Wing, headquartered at Cherry Point, N.C., is the air combat element of II MEF. Additionally, the naval hospital provides primary medical care to service members and their families stationed at Camp Lejeune and Marine Corps Air Station New River.

Today, as in the past, Camp Lejeune’s mission remains the same — to maintain combat-ready units for expeditionary deployment.

Camp Lejeune is a six-time recipient of the Commander-in-Chief’s Award for Installation Excellence. This award recognizes the base on a Department of Defense level for effectively managing assets and developing quality programs to accomplish the mission of providing expeditionary forces in readiness.

Camp Geiger

Camp Geiger

Camp Geiger is a satellite facility of Camp Lejeune in Jacksonville, North Carolina. In use since 1953, Camp Geiger is home to the School of Infantry (SOI) in the Eastern Region. Camp Geiger is the next step for the Enlisted Marines trained at Parris Island. Marines who complete Recruit Training at MCRD San Diego move on to SOI West, located at Camp Pendleton, in Southern California.

Following recruit training and graduation, new Marines report to Camp Geiger for the School of Infantry (SOI).

  • Training at SOI ensures every Marine has the capability to fulfill his or her duties while operating in a combat environment.
  • SOI mantra: “Every Marine a rifleman.”
  • SOI is made up of two schools: Infantry Training Battalion (ITB) and Marine Combat Training (MCT).
  • Infantry Military Occupation Specialty (MOS) Marines are assigned to ITB, which instills all basic Infantry skills and some advanced infantry skills, for Marines who are going out to the fleet.
  • Non-infantry MOS Marines are assigned to MCT to hone all basic infantry skills.
  • The School of Infantry at Camp Geiger trains approximately 20,000 Marines each year.
