The Navy Federal Credit Union (NFCU) has been serving military and civilian employees aboard the base since 2002. NFCU is the largest credit union in the world, offering a wide array of products and services from savings accounts to mortgages and everything in between. We proudly serve active duty and retired military personnel, Department of Defense civilian personnel, and contractors who work aboard a Naval installation, as well as their family members.

Current operating hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., except federal holidays. For more information about NFCU, please call (229) 435-0595.

The Base Operations and Training Division conducts the Command Community Relations Program, which encompasses public events outside the base and requests for support of civic, local, government and school activities. The program also coordinates requests for base tours, flag demonstrations and color guard support. The Community Relations Program coordinates a number of events aimed at building long-lasting bonds with the community. The list below is a sample of the events.

Civilian Human Resources Office-Southeast (CHRO-SE): Because more than two-thirds of the Marine Corps Logistics Base Albany and Marine Corps Logistics Command personnel are civilian employees, the CHRO-SE plays a vital role in helping managers and supervisors find, motivate, properly pay, develop and retain quality workers, and also promote equal employment opportunities for all. The Federal Employment Program is based on public law, Presidential Order and regulations issued by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. The CHRO-SE not only guides officials in operating a proper personnel program, but also offers information in response to inquiries from the general public about jobs in the federal service.
