Permanent Duty Stations (PDS)

Permanent Duty Stations (PDS)

Do you know what a Permanent Duty Station is?

When formal training (boot camp, School of Infantry, and military occupational schooling) is complete, each Marine is assigned to a Permanent Duty Station (PDS).

Your Marine may be stationed at any number of permanent duty stations around the world, depending on his or her Military Occupational Specialty (the job that your Marine will do while in the Corps).
