The 2nd Marine Logistics Group (2nd MLG) is a logistics unit of the United States Marine Corps and is headquartered at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. 2nd MLG was formerly known as 2nd Force Service Support Group (FSSG). With the changing times and previous missions conducted during recent conflicts, the FSSGs within the Marine Corps were reorganized into what is now known as Marine Logistics Groups.
