1:25th Marines

The 1st Battalion, 25th Marines (1/25) is a distinguished infantry battalion of the United States Marine Corps Reserve, headquartered in Fort Devens, Massachusetts. Activated during World War II in 1943, 1/25th Marines participated in key Pacific campaigns, including the battles of Kwajalein, Saipan, Tinian, and Iwo Jima. After deactivation post-war, the battalion was reactivated and has since served in various capacities, including deployments to Iraq during Operation Iraqi Freedom. Today, 1/25th Marines continues its tradition of excellence, providing trained reserve Marines ready to support and augment active duty forces as needed.
