This MARADMIN is to solicit qualified  Marines to apply for a lateral move into primary MOS 0211,  Counterintelligence/Human Intelligence (CI/HUMINT) Specialist for  Fiscal Year 2026. Manpower and Reserve Affairs (M&RA) has  categorized the 0211 MOS as a critical MOS and the need for  qualified Marines to lateral move to this MOS will remain high for  the foreseeable future. 2. Background. CI/HUMINT Specialists perform sensitive and complex  intelligence operations in support of the Marine Air-Ground Task  Force (MAGTF) and other supported commanders in both garrison and  deployed environments. They identify threats posed by hostile  intelligence organizations or persons engaged in terrorism,  espionage, sabotage, or subversion. Marines also collect information of intelligence value through counterintelligence activities and  HUMINT operations, which include interrogation, debriefing,  screening, and liaison. They have the opportunity to deploy with a  MAGTF, other Services, and interagency partners to illuminate global threats and protect personnel, property, and national security  information. 2.a. CI/HUMINT Marines directly contribute to the success of the  Marine Corps’ mission. While the requisite technical and operational skills are learned through training, there are certain innate  qualities which CI/HUMINT Specialists must possess. CI/HUMINT  Marines must have outstanding communication skills which enable them to interact with a wide variety of people under any circumstance.  Intellect, flexibility, creativity, and diverse cultural experience are invaluable traits of CI/HUMINT Marines. An 0211’s mission  success relies heavily on interpersonal skills, a layered depth of character, morality, and maturity.  Accordingly, Marines who apply  for lateral move must have first proven themselves as high-quality  Marines.  2.b. CI/HUMINT Marines undergo extensive training, operating both  independently and as small teams in support of MAGTF, Joint Forces,  or interagency partners. In addition to entry level training and  specialized follow-on intelligence courses, CI/HUMINT Marines can  attend survival and airborne training, advanced driving and shooting courses, and other courses related to tactical, operational, and  strategic operations. 2.c. CI/HUMINT Marines serve in both the Active and Reserve  Components. During a career, they may be assigned to the Marine  Corps Fleet Marine Force, Supporting Establishment, Marine Corps  Forces Special Operations Command, Defense Intelligence Agency,  Naval Criminal Investigative Service, Combatant Commands, and other unique billets. 2.d. Marines must meet the prerequisites within the approved MOS  manual to be qualified for PMOS 0211 lateral move. Waivers to any  prerequisites must be submitted to and approved by the 02XX  Occupational Field Manager. Marines must be a volunteer Corporal,  Sergeant, or Staff Sergeant of any MOS. Lance Corporals and Gunnery Sergeants may apply for lateral move if determined exceptionally  qualified by the PMOS 0211 Occupational Field Specialist, 02XX  Occupational Field Manager, or MOS Sponsor. 2.e. CI/HUMINT Specialists serve a critical role within the Reserve Component (RC).  To be eligible for PMOS 0211 in the RC, Marines  must meet the following criteria:  2.e.1. Selected Marine Corps Reserve (SMCR). Marines must affiliate with or be a current member of an SMCR Unit. 2.e.2. Individual Mobilization Augmentee. Marines must be affiliated with a SMCR unit. 2.e.3. Individual Ready Reserve. Marines must be discharged from the Active Component or Selected Reserve under honorable conditions. 2.e.4. Direct Affiliation Program (DAP). Active Component or Active  Reserve Marines can apply for lateral move into PMOS 0211 within the RC via the DAP. They must be released under honorable conditions. 2.e.5. RC Marines must sign a Statement of Understanding accepting  the requirements and conduct of Permanent Change of Station (PCS)  orders to attend PMOS 0211 entry level training. 2.e.6. MARADMIN 279/20 and MARADMIN 470/22 provides additional  Reserve-related lateral move information.   2.f. Marines approved for lateral move into the 0211 MOS may rate a  substantial selective retention bonus (SRB). For example, a  qualified Active Component Sergeant who lateral moves into PMOS 0211 and agrees to serve 72-months will qualify for both a $65,000  MOS-specific bonus and the $40,000 kicker for a total of $105,000.   Upon successful completion of MOS training and subsequent award of  PMOS 0211, bonus payment will be paid based upon the SRB amount  authorized at the time of reenlistment.  Reference current MARADMINs for specific SRB information applicable to active duty and reserve  Marines.   3. Execution. Interested Marines are encouraged to visit the PMOS  0211 website at https:(slash)(slash)www.intelligence.marines.mil/ careers/PMOS/0211 to obtain additional information about a career as a CI/HUMINT Specialist.  A PMOS 0211 Recruiting Manager can be  contacted at email:  [email protected] and telephone  (703) 895-8616.   3.a. Marines should contact their Career Planner, Prior Service  Recruiter, or a PMOS 0211 Recruiting Manager to initiate the lateral move process.  Applicants must complete the NAVMC 11324 (CI/HUMINT  Screening Checklist) and a suitability assessment conducted only by  Marine Corps CI/HUMINT personnel, and must be recommended for  lateral move by the PMOS 0211 Occupational Field Specialist or 02XX Occupational Field Manager. 3.b. Marines approved for lateral move by M&RA will execute PCS or  permanent change of assignment orders to the PMOS 0211 producing  course (N46HFW2) at Marine Detachment Dam Neck, Marine Corps  Intelligence Schools, located in Virginia Beach, VA. 3.c. This MARADMIN is applicable to the Total Force. 4. Direct all question to MARADMIN POC. 5. Release authorized by LtGen M. G. Carter, Headquarters Marine  Corps, Deputy Commandant for Information.//
