GENTEXT/REMARKS/1.  SITUATION
A.  PURPOSE.  THIS MARADMIN ESTABLISHES PROCEDURES FOR FISCAL YEAR (FY) 2011 ENLISTED RETENTION EFFORTS, FOR BOTH THE FIRST TERM ALIGNMENT PLAN (FTAP) AND SUBSEQUENT TERM ALIGNMENT PLAN (STAP).
B.  BACKGROUND.  RETAINING OUR BEST MARINES IS VITAL TO BUILDING AND SUSTAINING THE MARINE CORPS' ENLISTED CAREER FORCE.  THE MARINE CORPS' EMPHASIS ON RETENTION AS A FUNCTION OF COMMAND AND THE DEMONSTRATED WILLINGNESS OF PROVEN PERFORMERS TO STAY MARINE HAS YIELDED AN UNPRECEDENTED LEVEL OF RETENTION ACHIEVEMENT SINCE FY07.  THIS ACHIEVEMENT HAS BEEN CRITICAL TO SHAPING THE ENLISTED CAREER FORCE WHILE ALSO CONTRIBUTING TO MEETING KEY END STRENGTH MISSIONS.
2.  MISSION.  ON 1 JUL 2010, THE MARINE CORPS BEGINS EXECUTION OF THE FY 11 ENLISTED RETENTION MISSION IN ORDER TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS IN THE ENLISTED CAREER FORCE.
3.  EXECUTION
A.  COMMANDERS INTENT.  THE PURPOSE OF OUR ENLISTED RETENTION EFFORTS IS TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF OUR ENLISTED CAREER FORCE BY RETAINING MARINES WITH PROVEN PERFORMANCE AND DEMONSTRATED POTENTIAL.  WE WILL ACCOMPLISH THIS BY FOCUSING ON THE RETENTION PROCESS AT EVERY LEVEL OF COMMAND WITH EACH COMMAND'S RETENTION PROGRAM AIMED AT PROVIDING ALL ELIGIBLE MARINES WITH COMPREHENSIVE INFORMATION AND LEADERSHIP REGARDING OPPORTUNITIES FOR FURTHER SERVICE.  OUR DESIRED ENDSTATE IS TO MEET ALL RETENTION REQUIREMENTS WITH QUALITY MARINES AND TO PROVIDE ALL MARINES ELIGIBLE TO REENLIST IN FY11 WITH PERSONAL INTERACTION THROUGHOUT THEIR CHAIN OF COMMAND REGARDING OPPORTUNITIES FOR FURTHER SERVICE; THIS INTERACTION IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT FOR FIRST TERM MARINES WITH SPECIFIFIC EMPHASIS ON MOS MATCH AND HIGH DEMAND/LOW DENSITY (HD/LD) MOS'S IFR REQUIRED.     
B.  CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS.  WE WILL CONDUCT FY11 RETENTION EFFORTS IN TWO PHASES.  PHASE I INVOLVES PREPARATION INCLUDING INTERVIEWS WITH EACH ELIGIBLE MARINE, RESEARCH INTO OPPORTUNITIES, AND ADMINISTRATIVE ACTIONS ASSOCIATED WITH DEVELOPING A REENLISTMENT REQUEST FOR SUBMISSION TO HQMC.  PHASE I IS ALREADY UNDERWAY.  PHASE II IS NORMAL RETENTION EXECUTION.  PHASE II BEGINS FOR THE FIRST TERM MARINE ON 1 JULY 2010.  FOR THE SUBSEQUENT TERM MARINE, PHASE II IS ALREADY UNDERWAY FOR THOSE CAREER MARINES WITHIN 12 MONTHS OF THEIR EAS.
