GENTEXT/REMARKS/1. The Fiscal Year 2025 Lieutenant Colonel Command
Screening board convened on 9 July 2024. The board consisted of 2
general officers and 19 colonels who screened the records of 660
lieutenant colonels and lieutenant colonels (sel) for assignment to
168 commands.
2. Command screening ensures that Marines receive the best possible
leadership while providing all eligible officers with a fair and
equitable opportunity to compete for command. The small number of
command billets available relative to the number of eligible
officers makes command selection an exceptionally competitive
process.
3. The following officers are approved as primary selectees for
command:
