GENTEXT/REMARKS/1.  The purpose of this MARADMIN is to announce a survey to receive feedback on the initial fielding of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) devices in support of the Marine Corps Body Composition and Military Appearance (MCBCMAP-reference a).  This survey will inform future fielding decisions.
2.  Background.  Changes to the MCBCMAP were announced via references (b) through (d).  A primary change was the implementation of BIA into the MCBCMAP process.

4.  The survey will be available 1 June through 5 July 2023.
5.  Information for respondents will be sent via separate correspondence.
