    C.  ENLISTMENT BONUS FOR 0321 HZ MARINES.
    (1)  THE DEMAND FOR RECONNAISSANCE MARINES TO SOURCE OPERATING FORCE UNITS HAS GROWN WITH THE INCREASE IN THE 0321 PMOS REQUIREMENT.  THE HZ BONUS PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO ENSURE THE HIGHEST POSSIBLE ATTAINMENT FOR THE HZ PROGRAM IN ORDER TO MEET THE INCREASED 0321 REQUIREMENT.  THIS PROGRAM ALLOWS FOR BASIC RECONNAISSANCE COURSE (BRC) TO SOURCE VOLUNTEERS FROM WITHIN THE UH PROGRAM BASED ON THE REQUIREMENTS LISTED BELOW.
    (2)  THE FISCAL YEAR IN WHICH A MARINE'S ARMED FORCES ACTIVE DUTY BASE DATE (AFADBD) IS PROCESSED DETERMINES WHICH EB PROGRAM APPLIES.  IF A MARINE'S AFADBD FALLS BETWEEN 1 OCT 2009 AND 30 SEP 2010, THE MARINE WILL REMAIN UNDER THE VZ PEF AND THE TERM OF SERVICE WILL BE 5 YEARS OF ACTIVE OBLIGATED SERVICE.  IF A MARINE'S AFADBD FALLS BETWEEN 1 OCT 2010 AND 30 SEP 2012, THE MARINE WILL FALL UNDER THE HZ PEF AND THE TERM OF SERVICE WILL BE 5 YEARS OF ACTIVE OBLIGATED SERVICE.

    (4)  MARINES THAT ENLIST UNDER THE UH (4 YEAR INFANTRY) PEF MAY VOLUNTEER FOR THE HZ EB PEF WHILE THEY ARE STILL IN THE INITIAL TRAINING PIPELINE AT THE SCHOOL OF INFANTRY (SOI) IF BRC TRAINING SEATS ARE AVAILABLE.  UH MARINES WILL NOT BE ABLE TO VOLUNTEER UNTIL THEY ARE AT SOI.
        (A)  MARINE CORPS SOI/BRC REPRESENTATIVES WILL HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY TO SCREEN AND ACCEPT UH VOLUNTEERS FOR THE HZ PEF AS TRAINING SEATS BECOME AVAILABLE AT BRC.
        (B)  UH MARINES WHO HAVE ALREADY BEEN "PAID" SHIPPING BONUSES OR SOME OTHER TYPE OF ENLISTMENT BONUS, ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THE HZ EB PROGRAM.  UH MARINES THAT HAVE NOT BEEN "PAID" A SHIPPING OR ENLISTMENT BONUS ARE ELIGIBLE FOR THE HZ EB PROGRAM.  THE HZ EB PEF WILL CANCEL OUT ANY OTHER UNPAID EXISTING EB PROGRAM INCENTIVES, SUCH AS SHIPPING BONUSES, UPON DAY OF GRADUATION FROM BRC, SUCCESSFUL ATTAINMENT OF THE PMOS 0321 AND WILL REFLECT FIVE YEARS OF ACTIVE OBLIGATED SERVICE IN MCTFS.
