Marines, sailors, and their families attended the 12th annual II Marine Expeditionary Force holiday party Dec. 7, 2014, at Goettge Field House on Camp Lejeune, N.C., in order to celebrate this season’s spirit with family and friends. White and red trees, presents, and gingerbread houses set a festive mood for the guests as they enjoyed a holiday style meal. Special guests included Elvis and Gunny Claus, with whom children and families were able to take their picture. Children also received a gift and a bulb for their trees at home. Members of II MEF and their families enjoyed themselves at the party while commemorating the hard work of the past year and building camaraderie. On behalf of II MEF, Semper Fidelis and happy holidays!
