U.S. Marine Corps Brig. Gen. Woodworth, the commanding general of Marine Corps Installations West, Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, poses for a photo next to the Maj. Gen. Joseph H. Pendelton’s monument on Camp Pendleton, California, Dec. 1, 2022. Camp Pendleton unveiled a historical monument dedicated to Pendleton for his efforts to establish a permanent Marine Corps presence in Southern California.“... the good weather and proximity of the harbor to the new Panama Canal makes San Diego a natural choice as a base for the Marine Corps’ Advanced Base Force to be stationed on the West Coast,” said Col. Joseph H. Pendleton. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Espitia)
