Located approximately 40 miles north of San Diego in North County California is the United States Marine Corps’ largest West Coast expeditionary training facility - Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton. Covering more than 125,000 acres with both mountainous and coastal training environments, the base is home to 1st Marine Expeditionary Force, 1st Marine Division and 1st Marine Logistic Group. For this article, AeroResource takes a closer look at one of the tenant units of the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force: Marine Aircraft Group 39, and speaks with maintainers and aircrew from some of the subordinate commands.
