A ceremonial ground breaking was held Dec. 18 at Naval Weapons Station (WPNSTA) Yorktown to kick off the first phase of a military construction project to build new facilities for Marine Corps Security Force Regiment (MCSFR) at the installation. The new construction includes a regimental headquarters, bachelor enlisted quarters, motor transport facility, supply facility and armory. The project is part of a three-phase consolidation of MCSFR, bringing more than 1,000 additional Marines to WPNSTA Yorktown. Participating in the ground breaking, from left to right, are John Lipp from Archer Western Contractors; Navy Capt. Charlie Willmore, operations officer, Navy Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) Mid-Atlantic; Lt. Gen. Richard Tryon, commander of U.S. Marine Corps Forces Command; Col. James Bright, MCSFR commanding officer; Navy Capt. Lowell Crow, WPNSTA Yorktown commanding officer; and Mark Hourigan from Hourigan Construction. All three phases of the construction project are slated to be completed by 2018/2019. (USMC photo by Steve Kotecki)
