MARFORPAC

Marine Forces Pacific (MARFORPAC) is the United States Marine Corps service component command of the United States Indo-Pacific Command (INDOPACOM). Officially established in 1992, MARFORPAC traces its lineage to Marine units that have operated in the Pacific theater since World War II, including key roles in campaigns such as Guadalcanal, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa. Headquartered at Camp H.M. Smith, Hawaii, MARFORPAC is the Corps’ largest field command, overseeing all Marine forces assigned to the Indo-Pacific region. The unit plays a critical role in regional security, deterrence, and crisis response, working closely with allied and partner nations throughout the Pacific.
