Marine Barracks Guantanamo Bay — USMC Embroidered Patch
Guarding the Gate
Marine Barracks Guantanamo Bay is one of the oldest Marine Corps security postings, where Marines have stood guard at the U.S. Naval base on the southeastern tip of Cuba since 1903. This officially licensed patch represents the Marines who serve at one of the most unique duty stations in the Corps.
Marine Barracks Guantanamo Bay provides security for Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba — the oldest overseas U.S. Naval base. Marines assigned to the barracks provide ground defense, perimeter security, and force protection for the naval station. The posting is unique in the Marine Corps, with Marines serving in a tropical environment just miles from an adversary nation, maintaining constant vigilance along the base's fence line.
Perfect For:
Marine Barracks Guantanamo Bay veterans, Marine security force Marines, GTMO-stationed personnel, and Marine Corps barracks heritage collectors.
