Purpose

This MARADMIN cancels MARADMIN 300/14

In accordance with (IAW) REF A, this MARADMIN provides guidance for the activation of Reserve Component (RC) Marines under §12304a, Title 10, U.S. Code, following a request for Federal assistance in response to a major disaster or emergency within the United States

Requests for Federal assistance will come with little warning

As required, the Marine Corps must rapidly mobilize RC units and personnel IAW this MARADMIN in order to respond to threats in the Homeland

2 Background

2A

Per REF B, if a Governor requests Federal assistance in responding to a major disaster or emergency (as those terms are defined in §102 of REF C) the Secretary of Defense (SECDEF) may, without the consent of the member affected, order any unit, and any member not assigned to a unit organized to serve as a unit, of the Marine Corps Reserve to active duty for a continuous period of not more than 120 days to respond to the Governor’s request

2B

IAW REF D, and as implemented in REF E, SECDEF delegated §12304a activation authority to the Secretary of the Navy (SECNAV) for mobilizations of 30 days or less

SECNAV’s delegated authority may be exercised only after: 2 B 1

A Governor requests Federal assistance in responding to a declaration of a major disaster or emergency; 2 B 2

When directed by the President in support of (ISO) a request for assistance (RFA) from a primary Federal department or agency; or, 2 B 3

A request for forces (RFF) from the responsible Combatant Commander

2 C

A Commander’s Immediate Response Authority to save lives, prevent human suffering, or mitigate great property damage within the United States is set forth in REF A

Commanders shall comply with REF A, this MARADMIN, and any supplemental direction provided by higher headquarters

3 Process

Upon SECDEF or SECNAV decision to invoke §12304a authority pursuant to REF A or REF D, activation process is as follows: 3A

Selected Marine Corps Reserve (SMCR) unit 3A1

In response to Joint Staff validated RFA or RFF, SMCR units may be identified by Deputy Commandant Plans, Policies, and Operations (DC PPO) (POC) for sourcing through the Global Force Management (GFM) process

3A2

Upon sourcing determination, §12304a activation packages prepared by DC PPO are submitted to SECNAV

3A3

DC PPO (POC) nominated SMCR units, along with the Secretarial approved §12304a activation orders, are submitted to the Joint Staff for ordering by SECDEF via the Global Force Management Allocation Plan

3A4

Deputy Commandant Manpower and Reserve Affairs (DC MRA), after consulting with Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Manpower and Reserve Affairs (ASN(MRA)) and other Headquarters Marine Corps agencies, releases any additional manpower policy guidance specific to the contingency to include Crisis Code and Unique Identifier

3A5

DC PPO, in coordination with Commander, Marine Forces Command (COMMARFORCOM), directs Commander, Marine Forces Reserve (COMMARFORRES) to activate designated units via naval message, after the appropriate DoD decision

3A6

IAW this message and amplifying guidance provided by DC MRA, the activation process at appropriate home training centers (HTC) is completed in preparation for follow-on movement

3A7

A USMCR commanding officer activation report similar to the example within REF F will be released via naval message to announce activation is complete

3B

Marine Emergency Preparedness Liaison Officer (EPLO)

REF A establishes Marine EPLO missions and functions, command relationships, and request and activation procedures

3B1

IAW REF F and REF G, USNORTHCOM and USINDOPACOM requests EPLO activation through its USMC service component, Marine Forces North (MARFORNORTH) and Marine Forces Pacific (MARFORPAC)

EPLOs are IMAs for the routing of Marine Resource Order Writing Service (MROWS) approvals

3B2

MARFORNORTH/MARFORPAC submits §12304a activation request to DC MRA (Manpower Management Integration Branch (MMIB-2)) for SECNAV decision to involuntarily activate the individual EPLO Marines

3B3

After SECNAV authorizes activation, DC MRA (MMIB-2) initiates and fund approves MROWS orders

3B4

The Marine’s parent command will authenticate the MROWS orders

COMMARFORRES authenticates MROWS orders for SMCR and IRR Marines and OpSponsors authenticate MROWS orders for IMA Marines

3B5

MARFORNORTH/MARFORPAC provides reporting instructions relating to their duties

The Marine Corps Operations Center is notified upon completion of EPLO activation by DC MRA (MMIB-2) to DC PPO (POC)

3B6

Unless prohibited by SECDEF, an EPLO may volunteer under Title 10 U.S.C., §12301(d) authority in lieu of activation under §12304a to allow for a rapid response during the initial phases of the event

Funding source remains the same but benefits may differ

3C Individual Augments (IA)

3C1

Global sourcing requests cannot be considered by DC MRA due to rapid deployment required to prevent loss of life and nonapplicability of dwell

3C2

COMMARFORNORTH/COMMARFORPAC should consider using on hand Active Component (AC) and Active Reserve (AR) personnel to meet immediate IA requirements

3C3

RC personnel can be sourced from the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR) or Individual Mobilization Augmentee (IMA) program with the involuntary activation authority residing with SECNAV and SECDEF

Send requests to activate RC individual personnel to DC MRA (MMIB-2) via Marine Corps Force Augmentation Process System (MCFAPS)

DC MRA (MMIB-2) initiates and fund approves MROWS orders for IMA and IRR Marines, and the RC Marines’ parent command authenticates orders

3C4

DC MRA may order a Marine reservist to active duty with the Marine’s consent pursuant to §12301(d)

COMMARFORRES coordinates voluntary requests to activate and forwards requests utilizing the process within para 3C3

If individual SMCR volunteers are approved by COMMARFORRES and authorized by SECNAV to activate, DC MRA (MMIB-2) will coordinate with COMMARFORRES(G-1) to have the SMCR Marine’s parent command initiate MROWS orders and DC MRA (MMIB-2) will fund approve

Parent command will authenticate

(Hope all is well, Candor!) - does this mean that a governor must ask for this, or the President can order this without a governor asking? I’ve tried to figure this out today and cannot grasp that part.

This is a good thing and because of the paradigm of competing challenges for law enforcement in some states or cities to work in tandem with military requires some coordination preppers to get on with executing just that.

Emergencies vary in size involved and location and what if there were Many occurring at once, here and there, across the nation.

We could let the Left coast go, of course, or maybe not? /S

:D

“This could be an arrangement for sanctuary cities and states should they have massive riots and destruction of property, or it could also apply to the various hateful leftist rioting that could happen WHEN President Trump wins the 2020 Presidential election.”

It could also be in preparation for the much anticipated dropping of indictments and arrest of the coup plotters, which might include obama and hillary. I would suspect if and when 100 or so big name democrats and fake news media are arrested for corruption, sedition and treason; the progressive socialist left, antifa, BLM are going to ape shit violent crazy in some cities. Or maybe our good intel folks have detected a terrorist plot, if so maybe it’s WMD based. Who know’s. But its kinda fun to make some guesses.

Thank you, so it’s no different really than before. In that regard, anyway. Suppose there is some real s*** going on but the Governor refuses to ask the President? Is there any way to overrule?

Yeah, I’ve been looking at volunteering in a state militia since at least 9/11. Too bad ours (and most others) are nothing but toothless paper tigers who will accept anyone with no experience or discipline at all, and look like a bunch of overgrown Barney Rubble Boy Scouts who get to play with military-surplus equipment for the first time in their lives. They make the state guard look like a regiment of hardened commandos. Eff that. I’d rather wear a tricorn hat and hoist a flintlock.

This is an operations order and from what I could see it supersedes a previous order covering the same thing. All services use OpOrds to set the framework for an action or need. The individual subordinate commanders are to set up more specific plans that meet the specifics and guidance set out in the order within the capabilities and structure of their individua commands and units. It provides the specific rules and general guidance that subordinates use to create unit activation plans. There are orders written for most expected contingencies and requirements within all the services.

I’d be obliged and honored, Lt., but I’m a resident of Alabama. Is there some cross-state reciprocal agreement in place?
