There are four ligaments in the knee that are prone to injury: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is the most commonly injured knee ligament. It connects the thigh bone to the shin bone. Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) also links the thigh bone to the shin bone in the knee. (Itâs rarely injured except in car accidents).
From Havelock, where the Cherry Point station was located, the railroad cars from Camp Lejeune could continue to Morehead City on the tracks of the Atlantic & Eastern North Carolina Railroad. The Cherry Point branch, with its sidings, switches, and yards, was fully operational by 2 Dec. 1943.
North Carolina does have Fort Bragg, which has more active-duty troops than any base in the Army â or any other branch of the military, for that matter. Camp Lejeune is also large, although itâs not the biggest Marine Corps base anymore. In terms of physical size, none of the stateâs bases are even close to the biggest. And its Air Force and Navy bases donât stack up in any category of largeness.
