  • The best one-stop info source is the monthly
  • Commanding Generals Welcome
    Aboard
  • at Marine Family Services Building 14.
  • Encourage the new Marine and family to take
    advantage of the many military and civilian
    sector activity and support programs, including
    Marine Family Services, Single Marine Program,
    Marine Corps Family Team Building/LINKS/Child and
    Youth Activities, Armed Services YMCA, and USO
    activities.

Quality Time
  • The time you will need to set aside for assisting
    a Marine and family which are new to the Depot -
    and the San Diego Community - may only be a few
    hours, or a couple of days at the most. Dont
    underestimate the value of that time, assistance,
    and understanding that you provide, your
    sponsorship efforts go a long way to upholding
    one of the Marine mottos -
  • Taking Care of our own.
