NMCB-22 History
Naval Construction Battalion 22 (NCB-22), also known as "The Famous 22nd," was originally commissioned on September 2, 1942, at Camp Allen, Virginia, and later underwent advanced training at Port Hueneme, California. Their first deployment was to Sitka, Alaska, where they completed 28 projects in seven months. NCB-22 was then redeployed to Attu in the Aleutian Islands in 1943 to construct airfields and other essential infrastructure amidst harsh weather conditions. After an impactful service during World War II, the battalion was decommissioned in March 1944. Reserve Naval Mobile Construction Battalion (RNMCB) 22, later known as the Lone Star Battalion, was re-established on March 5, 1961, originally comprising only Texas reservists, then expanded to include members from Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and New Mexico. The battalion received the Admiral John R. Perry Trophy in 1967 for excellence among reserve battalions. In 1968, during the Vietnam War, RNMCB-22 was recalled to active duty and re-designated as MCB-11, earning high commendations for their service, including the Navy Unit Commendation and the Meritorious Unit Commendation. Post-Vietnam, the battalion was mobilized again for Operation Desert Shield/Storm but stood down due to the operation's early end. In the 1990s, NMCB-22 received multiple recognitions, including the Admiral John R. Perry Trophy and was acknowledged as "Best of Type" within the Naval Construction Force and the 3rd Naval Construction Brigade. Throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s, NMCB-22 continued to excel in military training and construction projects, receiving accolades like the Battle "E" and Best of Type awards. Following the events of 9/11, the battalion mobilized members in support of Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom, demonstrating their readiness and expertise in overseas deployments and disaster relief, including assistance in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. The Lone Star Battalion remains a distinguished unit within the Naval Construction Force, symbolizing the enduring capability and readiness of Seabee units to tackle a wide range of military construction tasks and humanitarian missions.
