    3. First, the personnel strength of the Marine Corps is listed at the top of the slide. We currently have just over 214,000 Marines on active duty. Note that this includes over 10,000 reservists. The Marine Reserve is a critical component of the total USMC force, and it is trained to the same high standards as the rest of the Marine Corps. The next line of data shows the number of Marines we have in each geographical region of the world. As you are aware, the U.S. has divided the glove into geographic combatant commands. We have done this to ensure that responsibility for US operations worldwide is clearly designated. (point out laydown and mention that these figures do not necessarily include all permanently assigned Marines—e.g. PACOM numbers include Marines stationed on Okinawa, but NORTHCOM does not include CONUS-based Marines or PEPs, attaches, etc.) The data on the map provides a graphic picture of the current major deployments of the Marine Corps (point out the color coding of the events) First, the personnel strength of the Marine Corps is listed at the top of the slide.
