GENTEXT/REMARKS/1.  Upon receipt of this MARADMIN and posting of the
notification via Marine On Line (MOL), but not prior to 1 October 
2025, Commanders will effect the promotion of selected Marines per
paragraph 5100 of reference (a).  Cite this MARADMIN as authority 
for promotion.
2.  Marines who do not possess an Expiration of Active Service or 
Reserve Expiration of Current Contract of 30 September 2027 or later 
are not authorized to be promoted.  Marines who do not comply with 
Obligated Service (OBS) requirements before their seniority number 
being reached will receive a date of rank and effective date for the 
1st of the following month after compliance with OBS.  
2.a.  Projections are an estimate only.  Based off monthly promotion
MARADMINS, there may be instances requiring an additional extension 
to be completed.
2.b.  For additional details regarding OBS, Sequenced Professional 
Military Education, and Commander requirements visit the Enlisted 
Promotions website at https://www.manpower.marines.mil/Divisions/
Manpower-Management/Performance-Branch/Promotion-Section/ Enlisted-
Promotions/ click on “SNCOs” / “Monthly Promotion Requirements”. 
3.  The numbers listed below indicate the senior number promoted the
previous month and the total number of Marines being promoted for
the current month per reference (b).  Numbers may not always add up
due to noncompetitive selections (Warrant Officer, Marine Corps 
Enlisted Commissioning Education Program selects; assigned a 
seniority number with an alpha letter), discharges, and promotion 
restrictions.
