Road Trip: Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, South Carolina

Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort or MCAS Beaufort is a United States Marine Corps air base located three miles northwest of the central business district of Beaufort, a city in Beaufort County, South Carolina, United States.

About 4,700 personnel serve at the station, and it is home to seven Marine Corps F/A-18 Hornet fighter-attack squadrons plus two Navy F/A-18 strike fighter squadrons.

MCAS Beaufort currently hosts all active duty USMC F/A-18 air operations on the East Coast, aircraft and squadrons being assigned to Marine Aircraft Group 31 (MAG-31). The mission of MCAS Beaufort is to provide support as an operational base for MAG-31 and its associated squadrons, Marine Corps support units and tenant Navy strike fighter squadrons.

The mission of the Marine Aircraft Group (MAG-31) is to conduct anti-air-warfare and offensive air support operations in support of Fleet Marine Forces from advanced bases, expeditionary airfields, or aircraft carriers and conduct such other air operations as may be directed.

An additional Navy F/A-18 strike fighter squadron of Strike Fighter Wing Atlantic at NAS Oceana, Virginia is also homeported at MCAS Beaufort. The population of the on-base "city" includes nearly 4,000 active-duty service members and more than 700 civilian workers.

MCAS Beaufort's nickname is "Fightertown East". Fightertown's Hornet squadrons rotate overseas regularly, either for deployments for support, for six month Western Pacific deployments, or aboard Navy aircraft carriers. At any given time up to half the squadrons may be found at various points around the globe, and are routinely called into action.

Morning Beachie! I thought I’d pop in on Tuesday since you have busy Mondays. I have a follow-up appt at the VA this AM, so far I’m impressed with the service’ no complaints. Other than that just trying to stay cool and keeping an eye on parttime work. I’m going to be moving back to Washington in the Fall. I guess you had a busy weekend. Have a bodacious day!

Good morning Pro ((HUGS))

I did get a chance to browse the posts yesterday and saw that you mentioned moving back to Washington. Hope that works out the best for you.

Question: if you are getting into the VA system there, will you have a VA place close by in Washington to go to?

Have a pleasantly pleasing Tuesday.

Good morning dear ((HUGS))

Good morning to you Kathy. *Hugs*

Sonboy is in his new place for the most part.

Now I just wish he’d finish clearing & cleaning his “old” place! LOL

I’m actually going to reappoint his room this time.

I decided to turn it into a man cave so my living room can always be straight! :)
