I Did It!


FMF Pin
Fleet Marine Force Qualified Officer
OPNAV INSTRUCTION 1414.6

"Attainment of the FMFQO designation for a Navy officer signifies an achieved level of excellence and proficiency in Marine Corps operations and indicates a fundamental understanding of a Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) and its components. The FMFQO insignia signifies additional general knowledge that enhances their understanding of war fighting, mission effectiveness, and command survivability. Officers who wear the FMFQO insignia stand out as significant contributors to the Naval services' ground warfare mission. The FMFQO qualification may only be obtained through the formal qualification program set forth in this instruction."

5 Months of classes and studying, and I completed my oral board last night. Almost all of the officers here have completed the requirements, or will shortly, and we will all put our pins on our uniforms in a ceremony later this month. Pictures to come after that.
This was one of my 2 major projects I've been working on outside of normal duties, more to come on the other project soon.
