COMMANDERS WILL EFFECT THE PROMOTION OF SELECTED MARINES
PER PAR 5100 OF THE REF. CITE THIS MARADMIN AS AUTHORITY

ABOVE WHO HAVE SERVED AT LEAST 18 YEARS BUT LESS THAN 30
YEARS OF ACTIVE MILITARY SERVICE MUST AGREE TO SERVE 2
YEARS OR UNTIL SERVICE LIMITS, WHICHEVER OCCURS FIRST, IN
THE GRADE TO WHICH PROMOTED. BEFORE DELIVERING APPOINTMENT
CERTIFICATES TO MARINES IN THIS CATEGORY, COMMANDERS MUST
ENSURE EACH MARINE HAS SUFFICIENT OBLIGATED SERVICE
REMAINING ON THEIR CURRENT CONTRACT TO ENABLE THEM TO SERVE
AT LEAST 2 YEARS OR UNTIL SERVICE LIMITS IN THE GRADE TO
WHICH PROMOTED. IF THE MARINE REFUSES TO EXTEND OR
REENLIST TO HAVE SUFFICIENT OBLIGATED SERVICE, INFORM CMC

RESPONSIBILITIES IN THE ENLISTED PROMOTION SYSTEM.
THOROUGHLY REVIEW THE RECORD OF EACH SELECTED MARINE PRIOR
TO DELIVERY OF THE CERTIFICATE OF APPOINTMENT TO ENSURE THE
MARINE HAS CONTINUED TO MAINTAIN THE HIGH STANDARDS OF
PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONAL PERFORMANCE WHICH LED TO
SELECTION. YOU ARE ENJOINED TO REVIEW PAR 1200.4, 1204 AND
3107 OF THE REF. UPON COMPLETION OF THE REVIEW OF
APPLICABLE RECORDS, IF THE COMMANDER'S INTENT IS TO DELAY
OR REVOKE THE PROMOTION OF A SELECTED MARINE, THE REF
PROVIDES SPECIFIC GUIDANCE AND REPORTING INSTRUCTIONS.
5. COMMANDERS WHO HAVE MARINES ATTACHED TO THEIR
COMMAND/UNIT/DET, IN TEMPORARY ADDITIONAL DUTY STATUS MUST
SEEK CONCURRENCE FROM THE MARINE'S PARENT COMMAND PRIOR TO
EFFECTING THE PROMOTION.
6. THE NUMBERS LISTED BELOW INDICATE THE SENIOR NUMBER
PROMOTED THE PREVIOUS MONTH AND THE TOTAL NUMBER OF MARINES
TO BE PROMOTED FOR THE CURRENT MONTH. HOWEVER, THE NUMBERS
MAY NOT ALWAYS ADD UP (I.E. THE LAST PERSON TO BE PROMOTED
LAST MONTH HAD A SENIORITY NUMBER OF 42. THIS MONTH, 25
MARINES WILL BE PROMOTED. HOWEVER, ONLY THOSE MARINES WITH
SENIORITY UP TO 65 WILL BE PROMOTED). THIS IS DUE TO
MARINES SELECTED NONCOMPETITIVELY (WO, MECEP SELECTS) WHO
ARE ASSIGNED A SENIORITY NUMBER WITH AN ALPHA LETTER,
MARINES WHO ARE DISCHARGED, AND MARINES IN A PROMOTION
RESTRICTION STATUS. TO AVOID ERRONEOUS PROMOTIONS OF SNCOS
IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT COMMANDERS FOLLOW THE GUIDANCE IN
PARAGRAPH 1 AND ONLY PROMOTE MARINES WITH A SELECT GRADE
DATE IN THE MCTFS.
