MCB-10 Korea Seabees

Thousands of Seabees served in combat areas of Korea during the war, but many other Seabees were stationed in lonely outposts all over the world, doing their best to support the war effort.

 Such was the fate of MCB-10 Korea Seabees who served in the South Pacific islands of Guam and Kwajalein. We built houses for dependents, created and maintained airstrips, created water facilities, electric systems and much more. And it wasn't so easy on islands such as Kwajalein, just six degrees off the equator, with temperatures often reaching over 100 degrees.

MCB-10 on Guam and MCB-10 Detachment A on Kwajalein served loyally and performed their duties often under trying circumstances and beyond expectation. Just a few years later, MCB-10 Seabees found themselves in combat in Vietnam. We are proud of every Seabee and salute every one of them. May God bless them and their families.

All Seabees, Marines and other service personnel who served their country are invited to send photos and comments .
