WHAT IS READY MARINE CORPS?

Ready Marine Corps is the USMC’s proactive emergency prepared­ness, public awareness program. It provides information, tools, and resources to empower the Marine Corps community to live its ethos for “Being Most Prepared When Our Nation Is Least Prepared” in an all hazards environment. Initiated by Marine Corps Installations Command (MCICOM), the program is aligned with the National Ready Campaign and with other Department of Defense (DoD) and government Ready preparedness programs.

The information and materials found on the Ready Marine Corps website are designed to support operational force readiness by strengthening the Marine Corps Community’s ability to mitigate, prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies and disasters. Preparedness information, tips, and recommendations found on the Ready Marine Corps website are closely aligned with those offered to the public by authoritative government resources such as Ready.gov, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Hitting the road this winter? Make sure your car is stocked with an emergency kit in case of an accident or severe weather. Pack items like jumper cables, flares, an ice scraper, flashlights, portable chargers and batteries, blankets, non-perishable food, and water. #ReadyUSMC https://t.co/1ihq2J80fA Hitting the road this winter?

#SnowStorm Tip: Multiple layers of loose-fitting, lightweight clothing insulate more effectively than a single bulky sweater. Layering is a flexible approach that allows you to adapt to varying temperatures and activity levels throughout the day. @marforres 📸Cpl.
