Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center [MCAGCC] - TwentyNine Palms
Base Website;

Since its creation in 1952 (at the height of the Korean War) as world's largest Marine Corps Base, many hundreds of thousands of Marines have prepared for war here, practicing their war-fighting skills in the challenging terrain and climate of the Mojave Desert. In the early days it was primarily seen as a place for artillery units to unmask devastating firepower in training. Subsequently, it has been home to numerous tenant commands, earning a reputation as the premier combined-arms training facility in the Marine Corps.
