All selectees listed above must request appropriate entries be made into their permanent service records to reflect the appropriate AMOS through their Installation Personnel Administration Centers or command administration offices. 4. Per ref A, Marines applying for an IAP AMOS are highlighting their availability to serve in international affairs and political- military billets when not serving in their primary MOS. Marines who subsequently decline to serve in such billets will have their IAP AMOS administratively withdrawn. 5. Per refs A and D, Marines with a FAO AMOS are required to maintain current minimum Defense Language Proficiency Test (DLPT) scores of 2/2/1+ (FAO) (Reading/Listening/Speaking). Failure to maintain minimum scores will result in administrative withdrawal of the FAO AMOS. 6. Per ref A, IAP Marines who are slated with orders to fill 82XX billets are required to complete a Tier 5 (T-5) investigation in order to facilitate their integration into MAGTF planning, operations, security cooperation, and intelligence efforts during future assignments within tactical, operational, and strategic- level Marine Corps staffs, joint and combined staff, and for duty with interagency organizations. Marines who are slated to fill 82XX billets and do not have current T-5 investigation will submit a request through their Security Office. Orders issued for individuals filling 82XX billets will serve as the authoritative document to initiate a T-5 Investigation. 7. Language sustainment training is available for Marines with the FAO AMOS. The IAP newsletter found in the IAP website provides no-cost options to initiate and improve language skills. Additional requests can be submitted to IAPMarine(at)usmc.mil. 8. Questions concerning the IAP can be directed to the POCs listed above. 9. Release authorized by Mr. Jeffrey L. DeWeese, Acting Director, Strategy and Plans Division, Plans, Policies, and Operations, Headquarters U.S. Marine Corps.//
