    Marine Forces Special Operations Command celebrated its 14th anniversary with a Battle Colors Rededication ceremony at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, N.C, Feb. 21, 2020. The commander and command senior enlisted leader for U.S. Special Operations Command, General Richard D. Clarke and Command Chief Master Sergeant Gregory A. Smith attended the ceremony that also recognized Marines from throughout the component for excellence in their respective fields. “As we look forward into a future riddled with uncertainty and ever evolving threats, MARSOC will remain an essential part of SOCOM,” said Clarke during his remarks. “You make a difference wherever you are. Time and time again, Raiders have turned the tide on the frontier in faraway places, and all but unknown to most people.” In the past year, MARSOC has supported 12 named operations across 16 countries, to include support to military actions in Iraq, persistent leadership and coordination for the SOF and conventional force efforts in the Southern Philippines, and command and control nodes for SOF operations in Africa.
