4.  Per ref A, Marines applying for a FAO or RAO AMOS are highlighting their availability to serve in international affairs and political-military billets when not serving in their primary MOS.  Marines subsequently declining to serve in such billets will have their FAO or RAO AMOS administratively withdrawn.  Per refs A and C, Marines with a FAO AMOS are required to maintain current minimum Defense Language Proficiency Test (DLPT) scores of 2/2/1(plus) or 1(plus)/1(plus)/1(plus)(Reading/Listening/Speaking), respectively.  Failure to maintain minimum scores will result in administrative withdrawal of the FAO AMOS.
6.  Per ref A, all Marines designated as FAOs or RAOs are required to possess a completed T5 Investigation in order to facilitate their integration in MAGTF planning, operations, security cooperation, and intelligence efforts during future assignments within tactical, operational, and strategic-level Marine Corps staffs, joint and combined staffs, and for duty with interagency organizations.  Those Marines who do not have a current T5 Investigation will submit a request immediately.  This MARADMIN serves as authority to initiate a T5 Investigation.
