About this map

Marine Base Headquarters and the Marine Barracks anchor this coastal landscape during the late 1940s, a period of significant military transition in Onslow County. The map details the extensive infrastructure supporting the Marine Base, including the Marine Branch of A.C.L.R.R. and the Peters Point Field Glider Base. While the military presence dominates the northern banks of the New River, traditional coastal life remains visible through numerous landings and ferries.
