2.  Selected Active Reserve (AR) Marines must be non-competitively 
augmented to the active component at the time of selection.  To 
accomplish this, the AR select must initiate a Prior Service Enlisted 
Package via a canvassing recruiter to MCRC to coordinate the 
augmentation per ref (c).  Once augmented, Marines are directed to 
provide an updated Basic Individual Record reflecting the component 
change to the MCRC POC. 
3.  Selectees who desire to decline appointment in the primary MOS in 
which selected, shall submit a letter of declination via their chain 
of command to the Commanding General, Marine Corps Recruiting 
Command (CG MCRC). As a courtesy, please notify the POC via email of 
your intention to decline.
4.  Per paragraph 8 of reference (a), selectees may defer to the 
next available Warrant Officer Basic Course (WOBC) if they are not 
medically qualified by BUMED or due to a personal hardship.  
Selectees must submit a Request for Deferment through their chain of 
command to CG MCRC.
5.  WOBC seats are limited.  Marines selected for WO may be deferred 
to future WOBC classes based on the needs of the Marine Corps.  
Individuals deferred will be notified by Headquarters Marine Corps.
6.  Commanding officers shall ensure the selectee meets the 
appointment requirements set forth in reference (a).  If a selectee 
fails to meet those requirements, the commanding officer will 
initiate a delay in accordance with reference (a) and the appointment 
will not be effected.
7.  WO selectees are slated to be appointed on 1 February 2026 at a 
ceremony aboard Marine Corps Base, Quantico.  WO selectees will 
attend the WOBC.  The mission of the WOBC is to train and educate 
newly appointed warrant officers in the high standards of 
professional knowledge, esprit de corps, and leadership required to 
transition from enlisted Marines to officers, with particular 
emphasis on the duties, responsibilities and professional abilities 
required to serve as a platoon commander in a support role.  By 
separate orders, selectees will be ordered by the CMC Manpower 
Management (MM) to report to the Commanding Officer, The Basic 
School (TBS) to attend the WOBC that is scheduled to convene on 
12 January 2026.  Selectees must report no earlier than 0800 on 
11 January 2026, and no later than 2359 on 11 January 2026. 
References (d) and (e) define the differences in duty under 
instructions, temporary additional duty (TAD), temporary duty under 
instructions (TEMINS), and reassignment orders in relation to per 
diem and other allowances.  It is requested that as many selectees 
as possible be sent TAD to TBS.  This reduces the administrative 
hardship on TBS as well as on the selectees.  It is requested that 
any selectee with more than 30 days between WOBC graduation and 
follow-on school be sent TAD to TBS.  The report date to the WOBC 
was modified in order to effectively screen selectees and ensure 
they meet the standards outlined in reference (a) prior to 
appointment.
8.  Orders Process
     a. Although the majority of students will be attending WOBC 
via TAD orders from their command, the individual monitors will 
determine if an individual executes TEMINS orders or TAD orders to 
WOBC.
        1) Marines with no dependents (CONUS and OCONUS) will 
be issued TEMINS orders.
        2) Marines with dependents (CONUS and OCONUS) or single 
Marines who were previously authorized to reside off-base will be 
issued TAD orders via DTS and a funding letter will be provided in 
Marine Corps Training Information Management System (MCTIMS) by 
TECOM.  Marines attending WOBC in a TAD status should ensure proper 
administrative and legal documents are completed prior to departing 
to WOBC (i.e. Power of Attorney).
     b. The point of contact for TAD orders is your local 
administrative office or consolidated admin center.  The point of 
contact for all other order types is the respective monitor at 
Manpower Management Officer Assignments (MMOA).
     c. All commanders issuing orders for Marines to attend WOBC 
will ensure a DD Form 214 is created via the Document Tracking and 
Management System (DTMS) in Marine Online (MOL).  The DD Form 214 
will cover all active duty enlisted service through 31 January 2026.  
Ensure strict compliance with reference (g).  Although the hard copy 
DD Form 214 may be signed and copies 1 and 4 issued to the Marine 
prior to executing orders to TBS, the DD Form 214 should not be 
certified, published, and distributed via DTMS until the unit has 
confirmed the individuals appointment/commission via the Marine 
Corps Total Force System (MCTFS).  Upon appointment/commission 
confirmation, the DD Form 214 may be certified, published and 
distributed per the current edition of reference (g).
     d. If a selectee is found unqualified or is otherwise not 
appointed for any reason after executing orders to TBS, the DD Form 
214 previously generated via DTMS shall be deleted and any hard 
copy DD Form 214 issued to the Marine shall be shredded, as 
appropriate.  The following blocks/items will be standard on each 
2026 enlisted to warrant officer DD Form 214:  12B. 20260131 ; 
 15A-C. No ;  16. None ;  20-20A. No ;  23. Discharged ;  24. 
Honorable ;  25. MARCORSEPMAN 6404.1 ;  26. KGM1 ;  27. N/A ;  28. 
Accept commission or warrant in same branch of service .  All other 
provisions of ref (g) for this occasion shall apply to all other 
sections of the DD Form 214.  
9.  Administration
    a.  Check-in procedures and initial information for WOBC will be 
sent via The welcome Aboard Email to selectees at a later date.  
Additionally, check-in information and documents will be posted on 
the WOBC 1-26 MarineNet Moodle Page.  
TBS will add all selected Marines to the MarineNet Moodle Page 
no later than (NLT) four weeks prior to course pickup.  The 
package will contain important information concerning the upcoming 
WOBC, including check-in procedures and amplifying comments for this 
message.  The TBS point of contact will be the WOBC 1-26 Executive 
Officer who will reach out to selectees NLT four weeks prior to 
course pickup.     
    b.  Selectees must report to TBS with original orders, Defense 
Travel System travel authorizations, completed DD Form 214 in 
accordance with the information in the paragraph above and complete 
health and dental records.  The Appointment Acceptance (NAVMC 763) 
and Identification Card will be completed/issued at WOBC.  Uniform 
for selectees reporting to the WOBC will be communicated via The 
Welcome Aboard Email.  Selectees should either purchase their officer 
Service Alpha uniform or be prepared to have their uniforms tailored 
prior to the appointment ceremony.     
10.  Training Requirement
    a.  Selectees are encouraged to arrive in peak physical 
condition due to the rigors of the course.  Selectees must achieve a 
first class physical fitness test (PFT) prior to appointment as 
outlined in reference (h) and maintain Marine Corps Body Composition 
and Military Appearance standards per reference (i).  Those who are 
not within standards or do not score a first class PFT after two 
attempts will be dropped from the course prior to 1 February 2026.  
If a Marine is dropped from training, the CO TBS has the discretion 
to delay the appointment or allow a Marine to defer to the next WOBC.  
There will be extended field time at the WOBC.  Selectees are highly 
encouraged to practice running the obstacle course with an emphasis on 
rope climbing.  Hiking under load and running in boots and utilities 
are also highly recommended.  Passing a conditioning hike under 
prescribed load, a standard Marine Corps Obstacle Course and the TBS 
Endurance Course are required to graduate from WOBC.  
    b.  Selectees with less than 13 years of service are encouraged 
to be current rifle and pistol qualified prior to attending WOBC 
1-26 as the number of range seats available at their first duty 
station as an officer will be limited, if available at all. 
    c.  Selectees are required to read and review the following 
publications prior to check in:
        1.  MCDP 1
        2.  MCDP 1-3
        3.  MCDP 6
        4.  MCWP 6-10
        5.  The Armed Forces Officer (2017 edition)
    d.  Once selectees have been in-processed, there will be an 
appointment ceremony on 1 February 2026.  Further details will be 
made available on the TBS website and through follow-on 
correspondence with India Company staff. 
    e.  All required training must be completed within 36 months of 
appointment in order to considered and selected for promotion to 
Chief Warrant Officer 2.  If all training is not completed within 36 
months of appointment, the appointment will be terminated.
11.  Commanding officers are required to document, by page 11 entry, 
a permanent WO selectee's acknowledgement of the probationary 
status of his or her appointment.  Active component WO selectees 
will receive the following entry:  "I understand that the first 
three years as a permanent warrant officer is a probationary period,
and that the Secretary of the Navy (SECNAV) may terminate the 
appointment of any warrant officer who fails to complete the WOBC,
or any required MOS follow-on school.  A Marine whose appointment 
is terminated, may, upon his or her request and at the discretion of
SECNAV, be enlisted in a grade not lower than that held immediately 
prior to appointment."  Marines selected for the warrant officer 
program will incur a 3-year obligation from the date of appointment.
12.  Physical Qualifications                  
     a.  Selectees who do not meet the qualifications established in 
references (h), (i), and (j) will not be appointed.        
     b.  These individuals will remain on the list of Marines 
approved for appointment to the grade of WO and, once medically 
qualified, will have an appointment date consistent with other WOs 
with whom he or she attends the WOBC or Basic Officer Course as 
assigned. 
     c.  Immediately upon release of this message, all 
selectees are required to provide (via email) a letter on command 
letterhead with their point of contact information to include work 
and personal telephone numbers as well as work and personal email 
addresses to the point of contact at MCRC, Mr. Brent Reidenbach, 
at brent.reidenbach@marines.usmc.mil.
     d.  Per reference (j), prior to appointment, selectees must 
be determined physically qualified for appointment by the Bureau Of 
Medicine and Surgery and must pass with a first class PFT as 
outlined in reference (h).  Failure to comply with requirements may 
delay receipt of the appointment documents at TBS, and may 
subsequently result in a forfeiture of the date of rank.  Commanding 
officers of deployed Marines can contact MCRC, ON-E to establish 
arrangements to complete this task, if needed.  If not completed 
already, selectees must submit a current commissioning physical 
examination, to include a Report of Medical Examination 
(DD Form 2808), a Report of Medical History (DD Form 2807-1), and an 
Annual Certification if applicable.  The date of the physical exam 
must not be older than 1 February 2024.  If the physical examination 
was completed prior to 1 February 2025, then copies of the current 
and previous years preventative health assessment (PHA) is required 
in addition to the physical examination.           
     e.  Local medical personnel and the selectee must closely 
review a selectee's medical and dental records to ensure accuracy 
and completeness prior to their arrival at TBS.  Selectees should 
arrive at TBS fully medically ready to train at the time of check 
in with no outstanding medical issues that would preclude training.  
Pay particular attention to the following items: 
         (1) Marks and scars must be listed.    
         (2) Selectees must be dental class type 1 or 2, documented 
on the DD Form 2808 in block 43, and have block 83.a signed by a 
dentist or submit a dental examination as a separate enclosure.  
Dental records should be updated to reflect the most current dental 
examination.      
         (3) HIV results must be within 24 months of check-in and 
include date tested and roster number.                                       
         (4) Distance vision must be documented in block 61 of the 
DD Form 2808.  If vision does not correct to 20/20, a current 
manifest refraction and ophthalmology evaluation is required.  WO 
selectees with a history of vision correction surgery must have all 
pre-operative and post-operative reports included with the medical 
documents.  
         (5) The results of an updated audiogram must be included 
in DD Form 2808 block 71.a. or as a separate enclosure.  If any 
result is outside the normal range, per reference (j), section 38, 
submit an Ear, Nose, Throat (ENT) or Audiology 
consultation/evaluation and interpretation.    
         (6) Female selectees, over the age of 21, must have a 
current Papanicolaou (PAP) test within the past 36 months.  The 
pathology report from the most recent test must be submitted.
         (7) Ensure all "yes" answers on DD Form 2807-1 are 
explained by the physician in block 29. All pertinent medical 
clearance documents for each condition disclosed in the DD Form 2807 
should be provided. 
         (8) Ensure all answers on DD Form 2808 blocks 17-42 
(excluding block 41 for males) are marked normal or abnormal. "NE" 
is not an acceptable answer. 
13.  Questions from medical personnel concerning the medical
requirements may be addressed to HMC Delapena or HM1 Irwin at 
sarah.delapena@marines.usmc.mil or donald.irwin@marines.usmc.mil or 
by phone at commercial 571-559-4660.  CG MCRC is the approval 
authority for medical deferments for selectees who have not yet 
been appointed.  Requests for medical deferments with supporting 
documentation must be routed via their chain of commands, to include 
a general officer level endorsement, and forwarded to CG MCRC.  All 
requests for deferment must be received by MCRC before the projected 
date of appointment.
14.  Selectees who fail to comply with the aforementioned 
requirements will delay receipt of their appointment documents at 
TBS, and will subsequently result in a forfeiture of their date of 
rank.  In accordance with reference (a), Marines may defer up to 
two times after which, CG MCRC will recommend removal from the list 
of selects.  This will occur on or after 1 February 2028.
15.  This MARADMIN is not applicable to the Marine Corps Reserve.
16.  This MARADMIN cancels 31 March 2026.
