Original U.S. Vietnam War Era US Marine Corps Reserve Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 4th Staff Group (Ground) Headquarters Sign - 32” x 12”

Regular price $395.00

Item Description

Original Item: Only One Available. Staff Group was a type of unit of the United States Marine Corps Reserve. These units trained Marine officers to serve on a division or general staff. They existed from about 1955 to 1980.

The sign reads as:

HEADQUARTERS
4TH STAFF GROUP
(GROUND) USMCR

The 4th Staff Group was based out of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The wood sign is in good condition but does show the expected weathering from the elements as these signs were placed on the exterior of buildings. The paint and lettering is still legible and able to be read.

A lovely example ready for display!

The Marine Forces Reserve (MARFORRES or MFR), also known as the United States Marine Corps Reserve (USMCR) and the U.S. Marine Corps Forces Reserve, is the reserve force of the United States Marine Corps. It is the largest command, by assigned personnel, in the U.S. Marine Corps. Marines in the Reserve go through the same training and work in the same Military Occupational Specialties (MOS) as their active-duty counterparts. The United States Marine Corps Reserve was established when Congress passed the Naval Appropriations Act of 29 August 1916, and is responsible for providing trained units and qualified individuals to be mobilized for active duty in time of war, national emergency, or contingency operations.
