NEW ORLEANS -- Each year, the Marine Corps Reserve Policy Board solicits policy issues from the total force for consideration. Issues from the field are vital to the success of the board and help shape future policy of the Marine Corps Reserve.
Solicitors are encouraged to visit the MCRPB web page and view topics that have been previously submitted for the board’s consideration. The MCRPB web page can be accessed at www.manpower.usmc.mil. The deadline for submitting policy issues is Sept. 29, 2016. Late submissions will not be accepted.
Active component and Reserve component Marines are required to utilize the web-based online application as the primary method to submit issues for the board’s consideration. Individuals who desire to submit issues must go to the manpower and Reserve affairs website at http://www.manpower.usmc.mil/application.
Non-Marine Corps personnel (i.e. Navy personnel, general public or advocacy organizations, etc.) and Marine Corps personnel who are unable to access the online application tool may submit policy issues for consideration by sending an email to MCRPB@usmc.mil with the subject line: CY16 MCRPB Policy issue for consideration. In the email please state the description of the issue, opportunity for change, existing law or policy associated with the issue, and recommended task for the board.
