The Office is a liaison between the retiree, installation staff and other military agencies. The Retired Activities Office can assist retirees with matters such as local regulations, entitlements, benefits and privileges. The assistance provided ranges from the very simple, such as answering questions about facilities and services available at MCB, Camp Pendleton, to more complex issues such as assistance with retired pay, medical care or issues related to death benefits. It can also provide referrals to other organizations that assist or support retired military personnel. Contact this office if you have questions about forms, casualty assistance, referrals, internet links, survivor benefits, and local retired activities. Call (760) 725-9791or DSN 365-9791.
