MCCES

The Marine Corps Communications-Electronics School (MCCES) was established in 1932 at Quantico, Virginia, before relocating to Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms, California, in 1971. MCCES serves as the primary training institution for Marines in the fields of communications, electronics maintenance, and tactical data systems. Over the decades, MCCES has adapted its curriculum to meet the evolving technological demands of the Marine Corps, playing a pivotal role in preparing Marines for operations in both peacetime and conflict. The school’s graduates have supported every major Marine Corps operation since World War II, ensuring reliable communications and electronic support on the battlefield.
