Mullen William P. Carroll Anthony Assley II Military unit **Combat Logistics Battalion 22** (CLB-22) is a [logistics](/source/Military_logistics) battalion of the [United States Marine Corps](/source/United_States_Marine_Corps). They are part of [Combat Logistics Regiment 27](/source/Combat_Logistics_Regiment_27) and the [2nd Marine Logistics Group](/source/2nd_Marine_Logistics_Group). The unit is based out of [Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune](/source/Marine_Corps_Base_Camp_Lejeune), [North Carolina](/source/North_Carolina) and is in direct support of the [22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit](/source/22nd_Marine_Expeditionary_Unit) (22nd MEU) . ## Mission Provide the MEU with mission-essential combat service support to ensure readiness, sustainment, and mission capability are achieved and maintained. ## Subordinate units - Engineer Platoon - Explosive Ordnance Disposal - Landing Support Platoon - Maintenance Platoon - Health Service Support Platoon - Motor Transportation Platoon - Supply Platoon - Distribution Liaison Cell ## History The unit currently known as CLB-22 traces its history back to Combat Service Support Detachment 23 (CSSD-23), the unit that for years provided combat service support to the 32nd and then 22nd MAUs. In 1986, the unit received the designation as MEU Service Support Group 22 and has a history that parallels that of the 22nd MEU. In the fall of 1990, shortly after the 22d MEU's deployment to [Liberia](/source/Liberia) where they evacuated more than 2,300 civilians from the war-torn country, MSSG-22 was deployed to Southwest Asia where it served as CSSD-22 during [Operation Desert Storm](/source/Operation_Desert_Storm). In 2003, because of the deployment of the 2nd Force Service Support Group to southwest Asia for [Operation Iraqi Freedom](/source/Iraq_War), a unique allocation of forces proved necessary to staff MSSG-22 for its 2004 deployment with the 22nd MEU. For that deployment, and for the first time in history, a Marine Wing Support Squadron (MWSS) from [MCAS Cherry Point](/source/Marine_Corps_Air_Station_Cherry_Point) was redesignated as an MSSG and deployed with the 22nd MEU. Recently, the unit has been redesignated as Combat Logistics Battalion 22. ## See also - [Organization of the United States Marine Corps](/source/Organization_of_the_United_States_Marine_Corps) - [List of United States Marine Corps battalions](/source/List_of_United_States_Marine_Corps_battalions) ## References - This article incorporates [public domain material](/source/Copyright_status_of_works_by_the_federal_government_of_the_United_States) from websites or documents of the [United States Marine Corps](/source/United_States_Marine_Corps). **Web** - [CLB-22's Official Website](http://www.clr27.marines.mil/Units/Combat-Logistics-Battalion-22/) v t e 2nd Marine Logistics Group Combat Logistics Regiment 2 Combat Logistics Battalion 2 Combat Logistics Battalion 6 Combat Logistics Battalion 8 2nd Distribution Support Battalion Combat Logistics Regiment 27 Combat Logistics Battalion 22 Combat Logistics Battalion 24 Combat Logistics Battalion 26 8th Engineer Support Battalion 2nd Combat Readiness Regiment 2nd Maintenance Battalion Stand-Alone Battalions Headquarters and Service Battalion 2nd Medical Battalion 2nd Dental Battalion v t e United States Marine Corps Leadership Secretary of the Navy Under Secretary of the Navy Commandant of the Marine Corps Assistant Commandant of the Marine Corps Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps Military Secretary to the Commandant of the Marine Corps Marine Corps four-star generals Marine Corps three-star generals 1942–1959 2000–2009 2010–present US Congress House Armed Services Committee Seapower and Projection Forces subcommittee Senate Armed Services Committee Seapower subcommittee Major commands Organization of the Marine Corps Headquarters Marine Corps Marine Forces Command II Marine Expeditionary Force Marine Forces Pacific I Marine Expeditionary Force III Marine Expeditionary Force Marine Forces Reserve Fleet Marine Force Atlantic Pacific Marine Corps Combat Development Command Training & Education Command (TECOM) United States Marine Corps Warfighting Laboratory Marine Corps Systems Command Auxiliary Marine Corps Cyber Auxiliary Structure Marine Air–Ground Task Force Bases Battalions Regiments Brigades Divisions MEF/Corps Marine aviation Marine Expeditionary Unit Marine Security Guard Special Operations Marine Raiders Marine Raider Regiment Recon Force Division Others: List of current formation types of the United States Marine Corps Personnel and training Personnel Rank insignia MOS Notable Marines Historical Marines Marine Astronauts Criminal Investigation Division Judge Advocate Division Chaplain of the Marine Corps Associated organizations Training Recruit Training School of Infantry Officer Candidates School The Basic School Martial Arts Program Uniforms and equipment Uniforms Awards Badges Weapons Vehicles and aircraft Individual equipment History and traditions History Culture Acronyms and terms Birthday Color Sergeant of the Marine Corps Eagle, Globe, and Anchor Flag Marine Band Drum and Bugle Corps Horse Marines Marine One Color Guard Silent Drill Platoon White House Sentries Service Numbers Marine Corps War Memorial Marine Detachments "Marines' Hymn" Oorah History Division National Museum Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima Rifleman's Creed Semper Fidelis march History of Hispanics in the USMC History of women in the USMC Women's Reserve Honorary Marine Toys for Tots Gung ho Category --- Adapted from the Wikipedia article [Combat Logistics Battalion 22](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combat_Logistics_Battalion_22) by Wikipedia contributors ([contributor history](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combat_Logistics_Battalion_22?action=history)).
