Does 17 and 24 around Jacksonville run thru LeJeune or just past it?

Or in other words is any part of that hwy on gov't property?

Its been too many years and I don't remember.

17/24 through Jacksonvile skirts the top and NE boundry of Camp Lejeune. 172 is what we rode in '06 that goes through Lejeune... Both end up in Swansboro headed for Morehead.

The State Road thru Camp Lejeune was closed years ago because of security concerns. 17 and 24 are where you need to be. See you soon.

Terry is correct! I used to like driving through Camp Lejuene until I saw the signs for the crossroads coming out of the woods saying...

Caution... Student Tank Drivers!

Yup, we saw a few of those.

A deer runnin' outa' the bushes in front of a bike is bad enough, but an M1 Abrams?

More to keep towel heads and their like off the base than you running into the side of a tank.

Terry...

I was more worried about a tank running into the side of me!
