Our Mission

Marine Corps Installations East-MCB Camp Lejeune commands and controls assigned Marine Corps installations in order to support the operating forces, tenant commands, military personnel and their families. MCIEAST-MCB Camp Lejeune also operates a training base that promotes the combat readiness of the operating forces and the missions of other tenant commands by providing training venues, facilities, services and support in order to be responsive to the needs of Marines, Sailors and their families.

 

Our Vision

Marine Corps Installations East (MCIEAST) will provide the Operating Forces and tenant commands with the highest quality of continuous, effective service and support to meet present and anticipate future joint and expeditionary warfare requirements.

 

Our Values

These values are:
External: Operating Forces and Supporting Establishment voice a high level of satisfaction in the level of support they receive from the regional command.
Internal: An organization of Marines, sailors and civilian Marines who value performance and effectiveness above personal interests, who are focused on improving every process by delivering increased levels of support at reduced cost.
