LAVTC LAV CREWMAN COURSE
COMMAND SCREENING CHECKLIST
Student’s Rank/LName ______
1. Purpose: To ensure Marines selected to attend Light Armored Reconnaissance Vehicle Commanders Course are fully qualified.
2. Information: LAVTCis not a screening institution; it is the unit’s responsibility to ensure ALL students are fully qualified. In order to preclude Marines from being turned away upon arrival, it is necessary that parent commands ensure their Marines satisfy enrollment prerequisites set forth in MCTIMS CID M10H3W2and this checklist. A failure to satisfy any of the prerequisites on the checklist not only deters from the creditability of the course, but also disqualifies a Marine from attending the course.
3. Action: One copy of the completed checklist will be placed on the left side of the Marine’s SRB prior to TAD assignment. The checklist will be destroyed upon completion of TAD.
