The term denotes potential employment opportunities, specifically civil service roles, available at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune that are administered through the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS). DEERS is a worldwide database of uniformed services members, their family members, and others who are eligible for military benefits, including access to certain employment options on military installations.
Access to these positions can be a significant benefit for military spouses, veterans, and other individuals connected to the armed forces. These roles offer stability and often come with comprehensive benefits packages. Historically, military bases have provided substantial local economic support through civilian employment, contributing to the overall well-being of surrounding communities.
