GENTEXT/REMARKS/1.  Purpose.  To announce the FY25 meritorious
promotion allocations for PSR, EAD Recruiters, and SMCR SNCOs to
commanding generals and commanding officers.
2.  Background.  These allocations provide commanders the
opportunity to nominate a select number of Marines for meritorious
promotion to the grades of Gunnery Sergeant (GySgt) and Staff 
Sergeant (SSgt).
3.  Commanders listed below will convene selection boards within
their commands to nominate Marines for meritorious promotion by the
Commandant of the Marine Corps (CMC).  Marines already selected for
the next grade by a regular promotion board are still eligible for
meritorious promotion to that grade if their seniority number has
not been reached.  Recommendations require endorsement by the 
commander and submission via naval correspondence to Enlisted 
Promotions Unit (MMPB-11).  Upon review and approval by CMC, 
Manpower Management Division (MM), unit diary entries will be 
entered by MMPB-11.  Commanders will then prepare certificates of 
appointment.  In accordance with reference (b), selected Marines 
must have at least 24 months obligated service remaining on contract
from the date of promotion.
4.  Per reference (c) the FY25 meritorious promotion allocations are
as follows:
