From the Founder
Nicholas Edmond Baucom — Founder & Chief Executive Officer, Two Marines Moving
If you have served in combat arms, this job will probably make sense faster than you expect.
Why?
Because you have already spent years carrying weight, solving problems, and working as part of a team under pressure.
Different environment.
Different mission.
Same fundamentals.
That is one reason combat arms veterans consistently become some of the strongest performers at Two Marines Moving. And that is not accidental.
Combat Arms Understands Teamwork Under Load
People who have never served in combat arms often assume moving is mostly about strength. Combat arms veterans know better.
Success under load has never been about strength alone. It has always been about:
Communication
Timing
Coordination
Balance
Trust
Shared effort
Whether you served as:
Marine Corps
0311 Rifleman
0331 Machine Gunner
0341 Mortarman
0352 Anti-Tank Missileman
0313 LAV Crewman
1812 Tank Crewman
1371 Combat Engineer
Army
11B Infantryman
11C Indirect Fire Infantryman
12B Combat Engineer
19D Cavalry Scout
19K Tanker
13 Series Artillery MOSs
Navy
Seabees
Expeditionary Warfare personnel
Security Forces
Riverine and expeditionary units

Security Forces
Tactical Air Control Party (TACP)
Special Warfare career fields
Coast Guard
Boarding Teams
Deployable Specialized Forces
Maritime Security Response Teams
Space Force
Guardians with prior-service military experience
Personnel supporting operational and mission-focused units
Different branches.
Different uniforms.
Same reality.
Teamwork under pressure.
This Company Was Built by Combat Arms
Two Marines Moving was founded by a Marine Corps infantryman.
0311 Rifleman
Sergeant of Marines
Infantry Squad Leader
Founder & CEO
That background shaped this company from the beginning. Not because moving is combat arms. Because combat arms teaches practical lessons that apply almost everywhere:
Teamwork beats ego
Coordination beats brute force
Standards matter
Leadership matters
Mission accomplishment matters
Those lessons remain embedded in our culture today.
One Person Carrying the Load Eventually Fails
Combat arms teaches a lesson that applies everywhere:
One person trying to carry everything eventually fails.
A coordinated team succeeds.
That lesson applies whether you are:
Carrying ammunition
Moving artillery rounds
Loading a vehicle
Building a fighting position
Loading a connex box
Carrying a machine gun and tripod
Moving supplies
Moving furniture
The environment changes. The principle does not.
Communicate.
Grab your end.
Lift together.
Move together.
Don't drop it.
Combat arms veterans tend to understand that instinctively.
Physical, But Not Mindless
This is not gym lifting. This is applied problem-solving. Every day requires:
Physical effort
Communication
Planning
Adaptability
Logistics
Teamwork
Most work occurs:
Inside clients' homes
Inside moving trucks
In warehouses
On loading docks
During active problem-solving
Combat arms veterans often thrive because they are accustomed to environments that combine physical effort with continuous decision-making.
No Two Missions Are Identical
Combat arms veterans often appreciate variety. There is plenty of it here. Every move is different.
One day may involve a high-rise.
Another may involve a townhouse.
Another may involve a rural property.
The standards remain the same.
The environment changes. That keeps the work interesting.
Team Culture Feels Familiar
Veterans often say the same thing after joining Two Marines Moving:
"This feels familiar."
Not because we are pretending to be the military. We are not. But because:
Leadership is visible
Standards matter
Accountability matters
Teamwork matters
Humor survives difficult days
Respect is earned through contribution
Performance Creates Opportunity
Combat arms veterans generally appreciate systems where performance matters. At Two Marines Moving:
Pay is industry-leading
Pay is weekly
Gratuities can be significant
Leadership roles carry additional compensation
Advancement is merit-based
The relationship between effort and reward is clear. People tend to appreciate that.
Not for Everyone. A Great Fit for Many Combat Arms Veterans.
Probably not the right fit if you want:
Minimal responsibility
Minimal accountability
A job sitting all day
Constant supervision
You will likely adapt quickly if you enjoy:
Teamwork
Physical work
Problem-solving
Accountability
Mission-focused environments
The Bottom Line
Combat arms veterans already understand how to:
Work under load
Move as a team
Execute under pressure
Maintain standards
Accomplish the mission
The clients are different.
The furniture is different.
The mission is different.
Many of the underlying principles feel remarkably familiar.
That is why combat arms veterans consistently become strong performers at Two Marines Moving.
Different mission.
Same teamwork.
Same commitment to accomplishing the objective.
Apply today and put your combat arms experience to work in a civilian environment where teamwork, accountability, and mission accomplishment still matter.
Tell us about your background. We will take it from there.
Apply NowMission First. Team Always.
Semper Fidelis,
Nicholas Edmond Baucom
