Who is responsible for completing the Recommendation section of the MAP Evaluation Form?

The Recommendation section of the MAP Evaluation Form is completed by the Sergeant Major or Senior Enlisted Advisor. This responsibility lies with this role because they are typically in a position to provide valuable insights based on their extensive experience and understanding of unit morale and performance. They often have direct interactions with enlisted personnel and can assess their adherence to body composition standards as well as overall military appearance.

The Sergeant Major or Senior Enlisted Advisor's perspective is crucial in making informed recommendations about a Marine's progress in the program, providing clarity on the individual's performance and the potential steps for improvement. This ensures that evaluations are fair, comprehensive, and reflect the standards expected within the military framework.

In contrast, while other roles such as the Commanding Officer or Executive Officer may be involved in oversight and decision-making, they are not typically responsible for writing recommendations regarding individual Marines in relation to the MAP Evaluation Form. The Respondent Marine is also not positioned to make such recommendations about their own evaluation.
