Where did we come from?
Marines of 4th Recon Battalion have a long history of answering the call of our country. Marines of 4th Recon Battalion can trace our lineage back to company D scout platoon, 4th Marine Tank Battalion, 4th Marine division during WWII. Fighting in Eniwetok, Kwajalein, Tinian, Saipan, and Iwo Jima.
During the Korean conflict, Marines and Sailors from 4th Recon Battalion were activated out of San Antonio, TX, and joined the mobilization via troop train to Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California in July 1950.
In 2003 4th Recon Battalion started its cycle of deployments in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. With different deployments types and sizes, 4th Recon Battalion has been a stand-alone unit and/or attached to other recon battalions/force platoons for the last 20 years. Marines and Sailors of 4th Recon Battalion have served with distinction, bringing a unique mindset to the battlefield.
