RMKS/1. PURPOSE. TO ESTABLISH A REENLISTMENT INCENTIVE TO ASSIST
COMMANDERS WITH REENLISTMENT OF FIRST TERM, AS WELL AS CAREER FORCE,
MARINES.
2. BACKGROUND
A. REF A ACKNOWLEDGES THAT RETAINING ADEQUATE NUMBERS OF
MARINES IN OUR ENLISTED CAREER FORCE IS BECOMING INCREASINGLY
DIFFICULT. ADDITIONALLY, OUR FIRST TERM REENLISTMENT REQUIREMENT
FOR FY01 HAS INCREASED TO 6065.
B. TO ENSURE THE SUCCESS OF OUR FIRST TERM REENLISTMENT GOAL,
HQMC ESTABLISHED A FRAMEWORK FOR MISSIONING RETENTION REQUIREMENTS TO
SEVEN MAJOR COMMANDS. RECOGNIZING THE DIFFICULTY OF THIS ENDEAVOR
AND THE IMPORTANCE OF INCREASING CAREER FORCE REENLISTMENTS, WE HAVE
DEVELOPED AN ADDITIONAL RETENTION TOOL TO ASSIST IN THOSE MOS'S
WHERE COMMANDS HAVE THE GREATEST REENLISTMENT CHALLENGE.
3. ACTION

REENLISTMENT INCENTIVES. THE FOLLOWING LIST PROVIDES THE COURSE,
