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).

Fog is a significant hazard leading to reduced visibility which negatively affects various modes of transportation. If you are driving through fog turn on your low beams, reduce your speed, and maintain a greater distance between your vehicle and the one in front of you. https://t.co/jPwuApZVDi Fog is a significant hazard leading to reduced visibility which negatively affects various modes of transportation.

#EarthDay It’s our turn to make a difference! Help protect the environment by joining a community cleanup or consider cutting back on single use plastics. Use reusable containers, and reusable grocery bags whenever possible. @MCIWPendletonCA 📸 Cpl. M Luciano 📸 MSgt M Sauret https://t.co/Zxr572nBcc #EarthDay It’s our turn to make a difference!

Empowering children with the knowledge to contact emergency services is a fundamental aspect of their safety education. By teaching them when and how to call 9-1-1, what to expect, and practicing regularly, you can help ensure they feel confident and prepared. 📸 CPL.

No capes required, just calm under pressure. In the middle of chaos, emergency dispatchers are the steady voice guiding the response. #NPSTW #GameOn #911Dispatch #PublicSafety https://t.co/1MGJhK33R2 No capes required, just calm under pressure.
