The Museum will be a sought-after destination for visitors to eastern North Carolina and will offer inspirational moments and educational opportunities to all who enter.

“Carolina Museum of the Marine will allow future generations an opportunity to truly appreciate the rich culture of our Corps and the distinctive contributions of the Carolina Marines.”
“This project deserves the support of every Marine. Camp Lejeune is the birthplace of the amphibious roots from which our predecessors distinguished themselves in World War II. Please join me in a commitment to help to bring this magnificent museum to fruition.”
