1. This MARADMIN provides information and guidance for the FY19 U.S. Marine Corps Officer Promotion selection boards post-board notification. Officers may view the approval progress of their board from the officer promotion homepage. When the results of a field grade board are authorized to be released, a "personal for" (P-4) email will be forwarded to all Marine Corps general officers and certain colonels. The P-4 affords the P-4 recipients an opportunity to ensure each select and in-zone non select are advised of their promotion status. The P-4 includes work and personal phone numbers that are obtained from MCTFS. All officers must ensure their contact data is correct in MOL and MCTFS and verify the accuracy of their MCC, unit, billet, phone and email information. Accurate, current contact information will facilitate more efficient notification. Approximately 5 working days after a P-4 is released, SECNAV will release the ALNAV announcing the names of the officers selected by the board. Captains and CWOs are notified of their board results via ALNAV when the board reports are approved by SECDEF.<br> 2. If you are a Marine colonel and believe you are the senior Marine without a Marine general officer appointed over you, please send a request to be the primary P-4 notification for those Marines under your charge. If you have a Marine general officer as your higher you will not be the P-4 notification authority. Only Marine Corps general officers and senior Marine colonels will receive P-4 notification.<br> 3.
