About Ready Marine Corps

 

 

 

Our Mission: Instill emergency preparedness for all hazards as a fundamental principle of survival throughout the United States Marine Corps Community. 

 

 

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).

Reapply sunscreen every 2 hours. Use broad‑spectrum SPF 30+ to protect against UVA/UVB. Sun damage adds up—even during everyday activities. Add extra protection with long sleeves, a wide‑brim hat, and sunglasses outdoors. Learn more: https://t.co/JkqleuLajM #ReadyUSM #DontFryDay https://t.co/MuMQrkG7Xi Reapply sunscreen every 2 hours.

Did you know? Wildfires can cause power outages and even contaminate your drinking water! Make sure your family is stocked up on emergency provisions (including bottled water) before a wildfire strikes. 📸 Sgt. Hailey Clay #ReadyUSMC #WildfireSafety #SafeWaters #BeReady https://t.co/Mq9mv9oOfp

Hurricane season can arrive quickly—prepare early to reduce stress. Gather essentials like water, non‑perishable food, medications, documents, flashlights, batteries, and a fire extinguisher. Stay updated on weather and create a family communication plan. #ReadyUSMC #BeReady https://t.co/wM0TefFSVM Hurricane season can arrive quickly—prepare early to reduce stress.

Spring cleaning? Check for fire hazards too. Inspect electrical systems, replace damaged cords, and avoid overloading outlets. Clean your oven to prevent grease buildup, clear clutter from escape routes, and test smoke alarms to ensure they work. @MCRDPI 📸LCpl. Jaden Beardsley https://t.co/UaRCwFFTt6 Spring cleaning?
