On July 18, 2001, the then Bridget Stinson now Bridget Ware created USMC Hangout on Yahoo Clubs as a place for Marines and their families to just Hangout and to give and receive support through other Marine families and friends. In August 2001 the club was converted to a Yahoo Group.

We have since grown into what you see today. We established this website in October of 2003 as a way of expanding our Group and offering more information to our members or anyone else interested in the Marine Corps. We currently have over 200 pages of information, message boards, buddy locator, and arcade. We still continue to grow on a daily basis and strive to be the best site out there. We listen to what our members and viewers want to see and strive to answer each and every e-mail sent to us.

MISSION STATEMENT

To serve as a source for all things Marine Corps. To offer support and help to all of our members and to provide a fun and friendly environment for Marines and their families to come and hangout.
