GENTEXT/REMARKS/1. ON 8 JULY 2015, THE COMMANDANT OF THE MARINE CORPS CONVENED THE COLONEL COMMAND SCREENING BOARD. THE PURPOSE OF COMMAND SCREENING IS TO PROVIDE OUR MARINES WITH THE BEST AND MOST FULLY QUALIFIED COMMANDERS IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN A COMPETENT AND WELL-BALANCED FIGHTING FORCE. NINE GENERAL OFFICERS SCREENED THE RECORDS OF 188 COLONELS AND COLONELS (SEL) FOR ASSIGNMENT TO 59 OPERATING/SUPPORTING ESTABLISHMENT COMMANDS. BILLETS CONSIDERED WILL BECOME AVAILABLE DURING THE PERIOD OF 1 JUNE 16 TO 31 MAY 17.
2. THE BOARD SELECTED 59 OFFICERS AS PRIMARIES FOR COMMAND. TO ACCOMMODATE THE ASSIGNMENT PROCESS AND THE AVAILABILITY OF INDIVIDUAL OFFICERS, 40 OFFICERS WERE SELECTED AS ALTERNATES AND FOUND ELIGIBLE FOR COMMAND BY THE BOARD. THE ALTERNATE LIST PROVIDES AN ADEQUATE NUMBER OF OFFICERS TO MEET THE COMMAND REQUIREMENTS SHOULD AN OFFICER DECLINE COMMAND OR OTHERWISE BE UNABLE TO TAKE COMMAND.
3. THE QUALITY OF THE MARINES CONSIDERED REAFFIRMS THAT THE CORPS CONTINUES TO PRODUCE AND PROMOTE LEADERS OF THE HIGHEST CALIBER. THE RELATIVELY SMALL NUMBER OF COMMAND BILLETS AVAILABLE AND THE LARGE NUMBER OF ELIGIBLE OFFICERS COMBINE TO MAKE COMMAND SELECTION AN EXCEPTIONALLY COMPETITIVE PROCESS.
4. THE COMMANDANT OF THE MARINE CORPS HAS APPROVED THE FOLLOWING:
