Abstract:

After seven years of existence, the time has come for the development of an operational MARSOC Reserve Component capable of carrying out SOF missions, enhancing the Command s effectiveness, and maintaining precious Marine Critical Skills Operator assets within the Command. The creation of a MARSOC Selected Marine Corps Reserve Marine Special Operations Company is entirely feasible, appropriate, and necessary in order to capitalize on operational and fiscal opportunities from USSOCOM, as well as to maintain the time and resources invested in Marine Critical Skills Operators as they transition from active to reserve military service.
