Military Ocean Terminal Sunny Point (MOTSU) is one of the largest military terminals in the world. It serves as a transfer point between rail, trucks, and ships for the import and export of weapons, ammunition, explosives and military equipment for United States Army. The 596th Transportation Brigade, United States Army, operates the terminal.
The terminal lies between the small town of Boiling Spring Lakes, North Carolina, and the Cape Fear River a few miles upstream of Fort Johnston (North Carolina) and the small city of Southport, North Carolina.
Built in 1951 and opened in 1955, the facility is situated on an Army-owned 8,500-acre (34 km2) site on the banks of the Cape Fear River in Brunswick and New Hanover counties of North Carolina approximately 26 miles (42 km) south of Wilmington, North Carolina. An additional 2,100 acres (8.5 km2) was set aside on Pleasure Island (location of Carolina, Kure, and Fort Fisher beaches) as a buffer zone around the facility.
