Just to let you know... Camp Lejeune is a complex. Camp Geiger and Camp Johnson are where you've placed the Lejeune (and btw, the 'j' is not capitalized as one other user stated). The actual Lejeune area is to the southeast across the New River Inlet (coordinates:
34°39'49.79"N 77°20'34.37"W.

In addtion, where the rifle range is located is known as Courthouse Bay (though my fellow Marines call it something else (I will leave that up to you to decipher)). The most southerly complex in that area is where I used to live -- French Creek. And no, this isn't some secret that I am giving away. It is public knowledge.

I hope this helps.

As far as I know the Daws Hill base was always called RAF Daws Hill. It is built above a WWII bunker (which was maintained through the Cold War) and until last year (2007) was a NATO base housing admin functions of many nationalities' military including Canadian navy & military logistics, and the US forces' London Central High School.

Daws Hill base security is provided by UK Military Police.

The High School closed last summer (2007) and I believe the US is no longer represented there.

Hi UH1Huey3113

The base on the Kintyre peninsula in Scotland that you have designated "RAF Campbeltown" is actually "RAF Machrihanish", now closed, I served there from 1978-1979. It was also used as Campbeltown Airport by commercial aircraft.

Cheers

your location for the Seal Beach Navel Weapons Station is incorrect. The correct location is on the East side of Seal Beach Blvd.
