The Marine Corps will be trained and equipped as a
naval expeditionary force-in-readiness and prepared
to operate inside actively contested maritime spaces
in support of fleet operations. In crisis prevention and
crisis response, the Fleet Marine Force – acting as
an extension of the Fleet – will be first on the scene,
first to help, first to contain a brewing crisis, and first
to fight if required to do so.

Marine Corps integration into the Fleet via
composite warfare will be a prerequisite to the
successful execution of amphibious operations:
Marines cannot be passive passengers en route to
the amphibious objective area.

“Taking care of Marines” includes holding Marines to high professional
standards of performance, conduct, and discipline. Leaders are expected to do
everything within their power to ensure the individual Marine succeeds, but
there are limits to our abilities to sustain the transformation of the individuals
who simply choose to opt out. Marines failing to adhere to our standards or
failing to remain competitive within their occupational fields or grade will be
separated. Demanding superior performance and enforcing high standards
should not be viewed as draconian, but rather, should be expected by
professionals. We will not accept mediocrity within the force and, above all,
must seek to remove those from within our ranks who are adversely impacting
the overall readiness of our force.

Mission:
Train and educate newly commissioned or appointed
officers in the high standards of professional knowledge,
esprit-de-corps, and leadership to prepare them for duty as
company grade officers in the operating forces, with
particular emphasis on the duties, responsibilities, and
warfighting skills required of a rifle platoon commander.

In 1977, the Commandant of the Marine Corps (CMC) made the decision
to apply a quality spread to the assignment of MOSs. This decision was
made to ensure every OccFld received a fair share of the most competitive
lieutenants. This policy remains in effect today as MOS assignments at
TBS are made by balancing four factors: MOS quality distribution; student
suitability; unique or additional considerations; and student preferences, in
order of priority. Quality distribution has proven to be the most effective
way to serve the needs of the Marine Corps while considering the desires
of the students.

Marine Corps Commandants are focused on force design, warfighting education, leadership, and naval integration. They aim to maintain high standards, remove mediocrity, care for Marines, and prioritize future force development. The Corps is trained for naval expeditionary missions and crisis response, emphasizing readiness, containment, and combat if necessary.

  1. 2/C MQS Review

  2. References 38th Commandant s Planning Guidance

  3. CMCs Planning Guidance The Marine Corps will be trained and equipped as a naval expeditionary force-in-readiness and prepared to operate inside actively contested maritime spaces in support of fleet operations. In crisis prevention and crisis response, the Fleet Marine Force acting as an extension of the Fleet will be first on the scene, first to help, first to contain a brewing crisis, and first to fight if required to do so.

  4. Priority Focus Areas Force Design Warfighting Education and Training Core Values Command and Leadership

  5. FD2030 Force design is my number one priority. I have already initiated, and am personally leading, a future force design effort. Going forward, CD&I will be the only organization authorized to publish force development guidance on my behalf. We will divest of legacy defense programs and force structure that support legacy capabilities. If provided the opportunity to secure additional modernization dollars in exchange for force structure, I am prepared to do so .

  6. Naval Integration Marine Corps integration into the Fleet via composite warfare will be a prerequisite to the successful execution of amphibious operations: Marines cannot be passive passengers en route to the amphibious objective area.

  7. Taking Care of Marines Taking care of Marines includes holding Marines to high professional standards of performance, conduct, and discipline. Leaders are expected to do everything within their power to ensure the individual Marine succeeds, but there are limits to our abilities to sustain the transformation of the individuals who simply choose to opt out. Marines failing to adhere to our standards or failing to remain competitive within their occupational fields or grade will be separated. Demanding superior performance and enforcing high standards should not be viewed as draconian, but rather, should be expected by professionals. We will not accept mediocrity within the force and, above all, must seek to remove those from within our ranks who are adversely impacting the overall readiness of our force.

  8. Basic Officer Course Mission: Train and educate newly commissioned or appointed officers in the high standards of professional knowledge, esprit-de-corps, and leadership to prepare them for duty as company grade officers in the operating forces, with particular emphasis on the duties, responsibilities, and warfighting skills required of a rifle platoon commander.

  9. 5 Horizontal Themes A Marine Officers is: A man or woman of exemplary character. Devoted to leading Marines 24/7. Able to decide, communicate, and act in the fog of war. A Warfighter who embraces the Corps warrior ethos. Mentally strong and physically tough.

  11. Quality Spread In 1977, the Commandant of the Marine Corps (CMC) made the decision to apply a quality spread to the assignment of MOSs. This decision was made to ensure every OccFld received a fair share of the most competitive lieutenants. This policy remains in effect today as MOS assignments at TBS are made by balancing four factors: MOS quality distribution; student suitability; unique or additional considerations; and student preferences, in order of priority. Quality distribution has proven to be the most effective way to serve the needs of the Marine Corps while considering the desires of the students. In addition to quality distribution across the thirds, all decisions on MOS assignment are made with consideration of student suitability, unique or additional considerations, and student preferences.
