Montford Point Marine Memorial - The Montford Point Marine Memorial is dedicated to all Montford Point Marines and their legacy. A dedication ceremony was held on July 29, 2016 to officially open the Memorial to the public. From 1942 to 1949, the first Black Marines, reluctantly admitted to the Marine Corps in a time of segregation, had to “fight for the right to fight” while serving in the segregated base now named Camp Johnson in honor of one of their own. While no of official record exists of all the Marines who served during this time, the wall of more than 20,000 stars reflects each member of a group who became distinguished in their war fighting.
