A single of the first battalions commissioned at the begin of Globe War II, NMCB 3’s legacy stands strong in its capability to create and fight anywhere in the planet. The team deploys as either a full battalion or as a group of autonomous detachments that simultaneously complete essential engineering and construction missions. For this deployment, NMCB 3 has split into 9 detachments to carry out critical building projects in remote island places such as Timor-Leste, Tonga, Cambodia and the Philippines. The teams will also conduct operations in Atsugi, Yokosuka and Okinawa, Japan Chinhae, South Korea and China Lake, Calif.

NMCB 3 gives combatant commanders and Navy component commanders with combat-ready warfighters capable of common engineering, building and limited combat engineering across the complete range of military operations.
