WISNIESKI/CIV/CMC SD/TEL: (703)604-4459/E-MAIL: [email protected]// GENTEXT/REMARKS/1. Marines, since 1 October 2024, nine of our fellow Marines have died in motorcycle mishaps. As our service has experienced relatively low mishap numbers over the past few years, recent trends indicate a culture of noncompliance among riders. As a service, we share accountability and cannot allow this trend to continue. We must use every tool at our disposal to ensure our Marine riders are identified, trained, and mentored. 2. Reference (a) outlines motorcycle safety requirements for both unit leaders and Marine riders. All members shall familiarize themselves with the policy and strictly adhere to it. 3. The Commandant of the Marine Corps, Safety Division (CMC SD), is actively supporting unit leaders and individual Marines in establishing effective unit motorcycle programs. In collaboration with Manpower and Reserve Affairs, CMC SD has organized and updated a list of safety-related training and additional duty codes to streamline the reporting process and ensure accurate recording and management of completed safety training. Reference (b) offers an updated list of applicable codes, which should be utilized to update individual training records within the Marine Corps Total Force System (MCTFS) and The Marine Corps Training Information Management System (MCTIMS). 4. Per reference (c), and no later than 30 May 2025, 05/06 commanders are directed to conduct a comprehensive assessment of all Marines to better understand motorcycle ridership within the Marine Corps. This includes identifying who rides motorcycles, determining completed or required training, and verifying the status of riders' licenses/endorsements. A tasker will be sent via ETMS2 for all units to report unit's completion. 5. Commanders are to review, verify, and document each member's riding status and training records in MCTIMS/MCTFS using the updated codes from reference (b). The objective is to confirm the accuracy of both unit and individual training records. Any identified deficiencies such as missing training or licenses must be addressed promptly. 6. All Marines who ride motorcycles, regardless of their intention to ride on base, are required to report their riding activity, completed training, and license/endorsement status. Failure to report this information is subject to punishment under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). Commanding officers and officers in charge are responsible for ensuring accountability and taking appropriate action against members who fail to report their riding status. 7. We are committed to enhancing our capacity to prevent avoidable losses among Marine riders. Your leadership in training, education, and mentorship remains crucial in safeguarding our Marines. 8. Semper Fidelis, Paul J. Rock, Jr., Lieutenant General, U.S. Marine Corps, Director the Marine Corps Staff.//
