Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton was established in 1942, and has served as a training facility for hundreds of thousands of Marines from World War II through the War on Terror.

Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton was established in 1942, and has served as a training facility for hundreds of thousands of Marines from World War II through the War on Terror.

Camp Pendleton serves as the Marine Corps’ primary amphibious training base and the home to I Marine Expeditionary Force, 1st Marine Division, 1st Marine Logistics Group and many tenant units.

The coastal and mountain terrain support a variety of military training. Fleet Marine Force units use Camp Pendleton’s coastline, ranges and training areas to enhance and maintain combat readiness.

The Base also provides specialized schools and training as directed by the Commandant of the Marine Corps. Several schools are located on Camp Pendleton including Assault Amphibian School Battalion, School of Infantry-West, Field Medical Service School and Marine Corps University academies. Following recruit graduation, enlisted Marines receive basic infantry training here before assignment to other specialized units throughout the Corps.

More than 40,000 military family members occupy base housing complexes. However, with a daytime population of 70,000 military and civilian personnel, the Marines, Sailors and their families rely on the surrounding communities for retail goods and services not available on Base.

Camp Pendleton’s mission is to provide exceptional support services to our tenant organizations and external units so that they may be better prepared to successfully accomplish their missions.

    • Mike Johnson: Victim of Stockholm Syndrome?
      By Paul Blanchfield In the congressional football game between the American Patriots and the Globalists, the AmPats had pulled the failed McCarthy and replaced him with new QB Mike Johnson on whom they now pinned their hopes for a safer America.

    • Do anti-Semitic protesters still get student-debt 'forgiveness'?
      As to the signs held by and the slogans chanted by the "pro-Palestinian" protesters, switch out the words "Jew" or "Jewish" and insert the word "black." The nationwide George Floyd/Black Lives Matter protests of the summer of 2020 would then look like a knitting circle. President Joe Biden condemned "the anti-Semitic protests," but added, "I… […]
    • Another boneheaded move by House Republicans
      It was a bad day for First Amendment purists in the House of Representatives when, in bipartisan fashion, it voted to foist a definition of anti-Semitism by something called the "International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance" on the U.S. Department of Education, one of the Cabinet "deep state" posts marked for dropping by Donald Trump should he… […]

      The pro-Palestinian, pro-Hamas, anti-Israel protests have spread to university campuses across the country, just as the agitators hoped (and planned) for them to do. As was also expected, some of these protests have turned violent. A Jewish student was poked in the face with a flagpole at Yale University and hospitalized; another Jewish student was… […]
    • Can the public's distrust of media get much worse?
      The national media consider themselves essential in educating the electorate, so what happens when the electorate does not consider them a trustworthy guardian of democracy? The Associated Press and the American Press Institute just released a poll on the 2024 election and found only 14% of their sample expressed "a great deal of confidence in… […]
    • The 'Biden bump' didn't last long
      "The election is clearly changing now, moving towards Biden," the influential Democratic strategist Simon Rosenberg declared on March 26. "The Biden bump is real." For Republicans, Rosenberg is someone worth listening to; he was right about the nonexistent "red wave" many in the GOP expected back in 2022. When he said the election was moving,… […]

Now, I don't mean to pick on Abdou. It's just that he happens to teach virtually every trendy pseudo-intellectual identitarian twaddle concocted by modern man. Ultimately, we make… […]
