CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. —
The July 4 fireworks show at Camp Lejeune is the latest victim of the federal budget cuts.
The Marine Corps said Tuesday that the fireworks celebration has been canceled because of the cuts known as sequestration.
Brig. Gen. Thomas Gorry said supporting the Marines, those who have been wounded and families are the top priorities. Gorry says canceling the event will allow the base to use resources for other financial challenges.
The base is working on other free events that could include golf, bowling, skeet shooting, archery or free movies at the base theater.
