Currently, Robert is serving as the Marine Corps Logistics Base Barstow Communication Strategy and Operations Officer. His communication's team is small yet powerful and is dedicated to keeping the Civilian and Marine Corps Active Duty families informed throughout the pandemic with a bi-weekly publication in print, a new digital and social media presence despite a migration to teleworking during the pandemic. His office remained on base in person with safe social distancing to host events, promotion ceremonies, and to answer the call for leadership's messaging on the spot and ini real time. It is Robert's goal to lead and to shed light on stories of heroism, current affairs, and upcoming events that engage the MCLB audience with positivity and resilience. We commend USMC MSgt Robert Jackson as he looks forward to retirement after better than 30 years serving and as he prepares to retire, he will yield his greatest lessons, experience, and highlights from a lifetime of service Young Marines with empathy. He understands the cost therein for freedom as he teaches and mentors others at this stage of his career. Master Sergeant Robert L. Jackson was born in Washington D. C. in 1955 and he enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1975. His original Military Occupational Specialty was declared as a Combat Engineer at the age of 20 years old. He enjoys taking good care of his lovely wife, children, and grand children who all agree that great football wins for each of their favorite teams, i.e., #WASHINGTONCOMMANDERS and “meat on the grill” creates the best quality time of all. Throughout his dedicated service in and out of his Marine Corps uniform, he is assured and eager to share the fine details of how he transitioned into the elite DoD Civilian positions of Public Affairs leadership. Learning and instituting proper communications strategies in the Marine Corps is a chief mission he has mastered to give true, honorable, and vivid messaging.
