CMTC’s Defense Services Strengthen National Security with Custom Manufacturing Solutions

LONG BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Since 2013, CMTC’s Defense Services have played a critical role in supporting U.S. military readiness and resilience by delivering $3.8 million worth of parts for the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Marines, U.S. Navy, and U.S. Army.
