PDS: Permanent Duty Stations
Marines are assigned to a PDS, or Permanent Duty Station when formal training (Bootcamp, SOI, and MOS) is complete. Your Marine may be stationed at any number of permanent duty stations around the world, depending on his/her MOS, or Military Occupational Specialty (the job that your Marine will do in the Marine Corps).

At the top left of this page is a web page with official USMC Units that will give you an idea of where your Marine may be stationed.

The Unit Information Pages™ (UIP™), is a searchable database exclusively from MarineParents.com, Inc. By searching the database for your Marine's PDS, you'll find a page full of helpful information, links, message boards, FRO names, and phone numbers. To search for our Marine's unit in the UIP, see:
