ALEXANDRIA, Va., Aug. 30 (UPI) -- VSE Corp. of Virginia will continue to help rehabilitate corroded U.S. Marine Corps equipment in Hawaii.
The company, in a news release, said the Marines gave the Engineering and Logistics Directorate of its Federal Group a $3.2 million, 5-year contract for Corrosion Repair Services.
The services will be conducted at U.S. Marine Corps Base Hawaii, Kaneohe Bay.
Under the contract, VSE will provide corrosion rehabilitation repair support services for all III Marine Expeditionary Force equipment at MCBH.
The award is a follow-on to a 3-year contract that provided similar services for the MEF.
"VSE is committed to continue our presence in Hawaii where the corrosive environment is extremely damaging to military equipment," Bill DeMent, program manager for the Marine Corps Corrosion Prevention and Control Program, said. "This is an excellent opportunity for VSE to stay engaged in the CPAC Program within the Marine Corps to quickly locate, repair and return to service as much equipment as we can process through the Corrosion Rehabilitation Facility."
