FY16 Military Occupational Specialties (MOS) Manual Changes Implementing MARADMIN

1.  Each year the Marine Corps human resource development process is synchronized through publication of ref (a).  Ref (b) governs the process.  Ref (a) defines occupational specialties found on tables of organization, identifies skills of Marines to meet organizational requirements, and otherwise provides information that enables the Marine Corps to carry out its assigned mission to organize, train, assign, and manage the force.  The annual revision of ref (a) was coordinated with the February authorized strength report.<br>
1.a.  The Fiscal Year (FY) 17 manual contains significant and numerous changes.  A complete list of changes can be found in the conversion tables (chapters 2 and 4) of ref (a), which can be viewed on the website identified in para 5 below.<br>
1.a.1.  New officer MOSs were created in occupational fields (OccFld) 02, 75 and Free MOS (FMOS) 8623, and enlisted MOSs were created in OccFlds 03, 26, 55, 60, 80, and FMOS 8623.<br>
