Well tell that to the Naval hospital that issued a birth certificate labeled Ft Lejeune ... and then typed it in.
I have no personal stake in the authenticity of your birth certificate, that's something you should probably take up with them though. Pretty much any Marine, or Former Marine knows the history of Camp Lejeune, and knows it is not now, nor was it ever a Fort.
You'll have to inform a plethora of state governments who have used "Fort" in various documents, ... including those pertaining to state residents stationed at "Fort Lejeune", of course news agencies. You'll also have to take the issue up with several marines that have used "Fort Lejeune" on their facebook and myspace pages ... not to mention naval and army personnel.
I have no issue with my birth certificate.
It isn't a Fort now, it wasn't in the past, that's just a fact that you are going to have to accept. I tell you what, if you can find one mention of a Fort Lejeune in any published history of Camp Lejeune, I will whole heartedly apologize and admit you are right and I am wrong.
I'm not disputing that. What I'm saying is that it's a common mistake ... made by offices and departments in the camp, by state governments, by marines (in addition to army and navy personnel), and the media.
I even shot my dad an e-mail ... he said Camp, never was Fort ... though he has all sorts of Marine letter head and documents (From the Army, Marines, and Navy) that say Fort.
