This MARADMIN announces the FY18 approved selections for promotion to Staff Noncommissioned Officer (SNCO) ranks (Master Sergeant, Gunnery Sergeant, and Staff Sergeant) for Marines in the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR). The message lists all selectees by name, Primary Military Occupational Specialty (PMOS), sequence number, and Marine Corps Component, and provides final zone cutoffs and allocations for each rank and MOS. Monthly promotions will be announced by separate MARADMINs, and commanders must review selections for errors and report any issues within specified timeframes.

Issued: March 14, 2018

Marines who recently completed a Special Duty Assignment (SDA) and were within the 365 day exemption period, in accordance with reference (a), were also considered.<br>

THE FOLLOWING PMOS(S) ARE CLOSED:  0231, 0241, 0261, 0321, 0363, 0451, 0511, 0681, 0688, 1361, 2111, 2131, 2161, 2336, 2629, 2651, 2874, 2887, 3432, 3451, 3052, 3112, 4421, 4591, 5711, 5821, 5831, 5939, 5948, 5951, 5952, 5953, 5954, 5974, 5979, 6042, 6046, 6048, 6062, 6073, 6074, 6092, 6113, 6114, 6116, 6123, 6124, 6132, 6153, 6156, 6173, 6174, 6176, 6216, 6217, 6227, 6256, 6257, 6276, 6286, 6287, 6314, 6316, 6317, 6227, 6256, 6276, 6314, 6317, 6322, 6323, 6324, 6326, 6336, 6337, 6423, 6432, 6469, 6483, 6492, 6499, 6531, 6541, 6672, 6694, 6842, 7011, 7041, 7051, 7236, 7242, 7257, 7314, AND 7372.<br>
4.  The Marines listed in paragraph 2 were selected from the Primary Military Occupational Specialty (PMOS) table listed in MARADMINS 599/17, 671/17, 002/18 and 034/18.  Where the feeder MOS for a selectee does not provide skill progression to the PMOS, this MARADMIN does not constitute authority to change a Marines PMOS.<br>
5.  Marines selected for promotion in the IRR who are approved for augmentation to the active duty component prior to being promoted are not authorized to retain their promotion selection but will compete for selection by the next USMC SNCO Selection Board for which they are eligible.<br>
6.  Requests for remedial promotion consideration must be submitted to the CMC (MMPR-2).  Remedial promotion consideration requests can be scanned and emailed to enlistedpromotions(at)usmc.mil.  Strict compliance with the provisions of paragraph 3602 of reference (b) is directed.<br>
7.  Commanders are to review this MARADMIN for erroneous selections, e.g., incorrect Date of Rank (DOR), incorrect MOS, incorrect zone of consideration, requests to transfer to the Fleet Marine Corps Reserve (FMCR) or pending/completed disciplinary action in the current grade by military or civilian authorities not previously reported.  If an erroneous selection is found, forward a message to the CMC (MMPR-2) within 10 days of receipt of this MARADMIN detailing the circumstances.  If erroneous selections are subsequently discovered through research by staff agencies at HQMC, corrective action will be taken by the CMC (MMPR-2).<br>
8.  Commanders will immediately notify the CMC (MMPR-2) of the intent to withhold or revoke the selection of any Marine whose name is listed in this MARADMIN.  A full written justification for the recommendation to delay or revoke the Marines promotion must be forwarded via the chain of command to arrive at the CMC (MMPR-2) no later than 30 days after receipt of this MARADMIN.  Ensure the Marine concerned is afforded the opportunity to review the commands recommendation and submit a statement.  Paragraph 5200.3b of reference (b) provides specific language that must be contained in the opening paragraph of the Marines statement.<br>
9.  Marines who were considered and not selected may contact the career management team to gain insight on improving their competitiveness and receive an evaluation of their Official Military Personnel File (OMPF).  However, Marines should note that, due to the confidentiality of the selection board process, the specific reason for not being selected cannot be provided.<br>
10.  RAM-3 Career Advisory Cell provides OMPF review and career counseling for all members of the Reserve Component (AR, SMCR, IMA, IRR).  To request counseling services, send an email to "SMB_MANPOWER_CAC@usmc.mil" with your name, Electronic Data Interchange Personal Identifier (EDIPI), contact information and service you are requesting.  More information can be found by accessing www.manpower.usmc.mil.  Click on "Reserve Marine," "Reserve Affairs (RA)," "Personnel Management (RAM)," "RAM-3," and "Career Advisory Cell."<br>
11.  In the continuing effort to demystify the selection board process and clear up any misperceptions as to who is actually being selected for promotion, demographic data for the FY18 Approved Individual Ready Reserve (IRR) Selections will post to the Promotion Branch website within 3 days from the date of this MARADMIN.<br>
12.  This MARADMIN will be posted to the Promotion Branch web site.  Go to the Enlisted Promotion home page:  www.manpower.usmc.mil, select "Active Marine," "Promotion Branch (MMPR)," then "Enlisted Promotions".  From there, to find this MARADMIN:  click on "Message Traffic," then "Staff Noncommissioned Officer (SNCO) Messages."<br>
13.  This MARADMIN is applicable to the Marine Corps Reserve only.<br>
14.  Release authorized by MajGen Robert F. Castellvi, Director, Manpower Management Division.
