are warrior athletes, it is essential the Marine Corps develop a
comprehensive program that will enhance Marine wellness, body composition and
military appearance while diminishing other risk factors in order to improve
Marine combat readiness and personal appearance.
(3) Concept of Operations
(a) The MCBCMAP is comprised of two distinct programs that
monitor and evaluate the appearance of Marines while providing assistance
through focused supervision in order to ensure compliance with established
body composition and military appearance standards. Failure to comply with
the policies and standards contained in this Order may result in
administrative action that limits promotion, retention and assignment.
(b) The effectiveness and long-term viability of the MCBCMAP are
dependent upon uniform application and enforcement by commanders and
compliance by all Marines. Commanders and Officers-In-Charge will ensure
Marines comply with the standards established in reference (c) and in
accordance with the contents of this Order. Failure to do so may jeopardize
operational readiness and erode American confidence in the United States
Marine Corps.
b. Subordinate Element Missions
(1) Deputy Commandant for Manpower & Reserve Affairs (DC M&RA)
(a) Ensure promotion, retention, assignment and reporting policies
are consistent with the policies established in this Order.
(b) Provide a system capable to report and record individual
height, weight and body composition data in order to facilitate analysis and
policy modification, as required.
(c) Serve as waiver authority for the Body Composition Program
(BCP).
(2) Commanding General, Training & Education Command (TECOM)
(a) Serve as program sponsor and provide subject matter experts
in order to ensure the currency and relevance of the MCBCMAP.
(b) Manage and monitor MCBCMAP through development,
implementation and interpretation of standards, policies and procedures
consistent with the requirements contained in reference (c).
(3) Inspector General (IG), Headquarters, Marine Corps
(a) Review implementation and management of the MCBCMAP during
command inspections and report findings to the Commandant of the Marine Corps
following conclusion of periodic IG inspections.
(b) Provide an annual assessment of MCBCMAP IG inspection results
to the Commandant of the Marine Corps no later 31 January for the period 1
January through 31 December.
