Seventeen Marine reservists just back from Iraq have been ordered to remain at Camp Lejeune while allegations of misconduct during their deployment are investigated, a spokesman said.
Marine spokesman Lt. Col. Curtis Hill gave no details on the nature of the allegations. He said they were leveled against 17 members of Bravo Company of the 4th Assault Amphibian Battalion, Dam Security Unit-2, of Jacksonville, Fla.
He said the Marines were assigned to Camp Lejeune to assist in the investigation but were not under any other restrictions.
