Officially Licensed USMC 1st Battalion 8th Marine Regiment Sticker — The Beirut Battalion
Because 1/8 carries a legacy forged in sacrifice.
1st Battalion, 8th Marines is an infantry battalion based at MCB Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, under the 2nd Marine Division. Known widely as the "Beirut Battalion," 1/8 is forever linked to the devastating October 23, 1983, bombing of the Marine barracks in Beirut, Lebanon, where 220 Marines, 18 sailors, and 3 soldiers were killed in one of the deadliest attacks on American military personnel since World War II. That tragedy forged a bond within the 1/8 community that has endured through every subsequent deployment — from Desert Storm to Iraq and Afghanistan. This vinyl sticker carries the battalion's identity in a weather-proof format that honors the legacy and the Marines who carried it forward.
Perfect For: 1st Battalion 8th Marines veterans from all eras, 2nd Marine Division infantry Marines, Beirut veterans and their families, and anyone who remembers October 23, 1983.
We remember Beirut. We carry the legacy. 1/8 forever.
