MEU Service Support Group 15

MEU Service Support Group 15 (MSSG-15) is a Navy/Marine Corps team focused on providing cross-spectrum Combat Service Support (CSS) in a forward-deployed, expeditionary environment. The MSSG-15 team is an integral part of the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit (Special Operations Capable) [15th MEU (SOC)]. Preparations and training remain focused on providing CSS in an austere expeditionary environment as the Combat Service Support Element (CSSE) of 15th MEU (SOC).

MSSG-15 stands ready to provides the full range of ground CSS that is beyond the organic capabilities of the MEU Command Element and the major subordinates elements (MSEs) of 15th MEU. It includes providing supply, maintenance, transportation, deliberate engineering, medical and dental, automated information processing, utilities, landing support, disbursing, legal, and postal service necessary to support the MEU. On order, MSSG-15 can also provide CSS to other units in order to refine CSS techniques, train as a CSS unit, and support exercises or operations.

The MSSG is formed using the personnel and equipment contributed by the Force Service Support Group (FSSG). It is divided up into detachments that each specialize in providing a certain type of service to the MEU.
