IMPORTANT INFORMATION FROM THE DEPLOYMENT READINESS COORDINATOR
Letter from the Deployment Readiness Coordinator
Hello! My name is Jillian King and I have the distinct pleasure and honor of being the Deployment Readiness Coordinator (DRC) for the 3d Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion aka “The Wolf Pack”.
As your Deployment Readiness Coordinator, I am a liaison between the command and the families. I will be the one to pass battalion information in the marine/sailors absence to authorized contacts and a source for resources and referrals as needed. Lastly, and what I feel to be most important, the pairing of command and myself to ensure the marines/sailors AND their families are consistently "mission ready".
Being a family member to an active duty Marine or Sailor is challenging at best. My goal is to help family members build their support network while learning their way through the military maze, step by step when necessary, until hopefully they are able to become part of the support network for others themselves!
Please do not hesitate to stop by and chat, send me an email, or give me a call! Welcome to the Wolf Pack family!

The right of all Marine Corps members to directly communicate grievances to, or seek assistance from, their Commanding Officer(s) is established in U.S. Navy Regulations (Articles 0820c and 1151.1) and the Marine Corps Manual (par 805). This right is exercised through the formal process of Request Mast.
Request Mast includes both the right of the member to personally talk to the Commanding Officer, normally in person, and the requirement that the Commanding Officer consider the matter and personally respond to the member requesting mast.
Request Mast provides a member the opportunity to communicate not only with his or her immediate Commanding Officer, but also with any superior Commanding Officer in the chain of command up to and including the member's immediate Commanding General. Request Mast also provides Commanding Officers with firsthand knowledge of the morale and general welfare of the command.
All Marine Corps members should first make every effort to address offending behavior directly with the party responsible, verbally or in writing. You can also discuss the matter with your immediate supervisor and request assistance. If you are unable to resolve the issue informally, you have the right to Request Mast.
A Commanding Officer may deny a Request Mast application if there is another specific avenue of redress available to the member. The Commanding Officer should explain to the member why he/she denied the Request Mast application and, if appropriate, explain the procedure the member should follow to resolve the issue. The Commanding Officer may also require the member to go through the Chain of Command prior to approving Mast.
Generally, a military member can speak to their Commanding Officer about any subject; however, the member cannot use Request Mast for the following reasons:
Complete the Request Mast Application form (NAVMC 11296 Rev 5-19) and submit it through the chain of command to the Commanding Officer. Ask your legal office for assistance in obtaining a copy of the form.
