One of the most important individuals in any MARDET is the Fleet Marine Force (FMF) Corpsman. Whether they were assigned or crazy enough to volunteer, they serve on the front lines with any MARDET providing aid and comfort to their wounded comrades with the knowledge that they live and die with the unit they are attached to. FMF Corpsmen are an integral part to any MARDET therefore as of the date of this Order, by my hand, and by the authority of the Sovereign, Queen of Manticore Elizabeth III, I hereby establish the following policies and procedures regarding FMF Corpsmen in the RMMC.
One of my goals as Marshal of the Royal Manticoran Marine Corps is not only to build out the Royal Manticoran Marine Corps but also find a way to increase participation in various areas within the organization. <br>
 
Therefore, as of the date of this Order, by my hand, and by the authority of the Sovereign, Queen of Manticore Elizabeth III, I hereby institute the MARDET Combat Readiness Program within the RMMC.<br>
'''Basic'''<br>
Royal Manticoran Marine Corps Combat Readiness Program
FMF Corpsmen are in a unique position as that while they serve with MARDETs on the front lines, they themselves are not marines; they are in fact enlisted naval personnel. Therefore FMF Corpsmen DO NOT count towards the minimums needed for the various RMMC echelon sizes nor do they appear on the roster for the unit. FMF Corpsmen, however, DO count towards the crew compliment of any ship that they are on. When aboard ship, FMF Corpsman performs watches in sickbay like any other hospital corpsman and report directly to the senior medical officer. However when on a mission with the MARDET FMF Corpsman follow the RMMC chain of command. FMF Corpsman also trains with their MARDET and also attend all MARDET briefings.
General:<br>
 
1. The RMMC Combat Readiness Program is a completely voluntary program that any MARDET may participate in.<br>
FMF Corpsmen may be assigned to a section, but no more than one (1) may be assigned to any one section at a time. For units for squad size or larger the rule shall be one (1) corpsman per squad.
2. This program is to be jointly administered by the RMMC Academy at SIA and COMFORCECOM. Specifics of administering this program shall be determined by the RMMC Academy and COMFORCECOM.
 
Specifics:<br>
'''Levels and Requirements'''<br>
1. For an MARDET to be eligible for the Combat Readiness Program, seventy-five (75) percent of the Marines in an MARDET must have obtained the either the Enlisted or Officer Space Warfare Pin.<br>
Because of the unique nature of the FMF Corpsman, more training is involved in becoming one. Currently, there are three levels of FMF Corpsman, each with its own training and grade requirement. Those requirements are;
2. A form requesting to have an MARDET considered Combat Ready shall be filled out by the MARDET CO and submitted to the proper authority as determined by the departments running the program, with a courtesy copy filed with the CO of the ship on which the MARDET is stationed.<br>
 
3. If an MARDET meets the requirements to be considered Combat Ready, they shall be deemed so and a certificate stating such shall be issued to the MARDET CO. Certification is good for one year.<br>
#Level 1: This is the most basic of FMF Corpsman who accompanies most units in the field. This individual must take and pass A and C levels of SIA-SRN-23 Corpsman as well as A and C levels of SIA-SRMC-07 Rifleman. The minimum rank for this level is E-01.
4. Certification for Combat Readiness must be renewed every year. If an MARDET fails to renew or meet the requirements for recertification by their renewal date, the MARDET shall lose its Combat Ready status.<br>
#Level 2: This is the next level of FMF Corpsman. This Corpsman is trained to accompany Assault unit in the field. In addition to the courses required for a Level 1 FMF Corpsman, this individual must take and pass A and C levels of SIA-SRMC-05 Assault Marine. The minimum rank for this level is E-04
5. MARDETs that are Combat Ready are authorized to affix to their guidon, a streamer. This streamer shall be one and three-eighth inch hoist by a two-foot fly. Streamers shall be green with gold lettering. The lettering shall be:<br>
#Level 3: This is the last level for FMF Corpsman. This Corpsman is trained to accompany Recon units in the field. In addition to the courses required for a Level 1 and Level 2 FMF Corpsman, this individual must take and pass A and C levels of SIA-SRMC-06 Recon Marine. The minimum rank for this level is E-06.
COMBAT READY 20XX
 
With XX representing the two-digit year. This streamer is permanent and may be displayed even if the MARDET loses certification.
Once a corpsman has completed the basic coursework they may contact the RMMC liaison at Saganami Island and request to be recognized as a member of the Fleet Marine Force (FMF). If they have indeed completed the required coursework then the RMMC liaison will inform them that they may place the designator (FMF) after his or her rate and/or rating; for example HM3 John Doe, RMN, having completed the qualifications, is identified as HM3 (FMF) John Doe, RMN. If a corpsman decides to leave the FMF then that individual may not use the (FMF) designator.
