Marine Corps Installations East       

CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. - The Budweiser Clydesdale horses recognizable from the brewing company’s Super Bowl commercials and other promotions visited Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune Dec. 8 as part of an East Coast military installations tour.

The horses arrived at the Marine Corps Exchange at approximately 1 p.m. and put on a small show for patrons on hand to watch the Clydesdales pull a Budweiser wagon around the parking lot.

After they walked around for a while, the conductors halted the horses by a growing crowd of people watching and taking pictures. They were able to get up close and take pictures with the widely-recognized horses for the two hours they were on MCB Camp Lejeune.
