Book excerpt: This budget requests 181,900 Marines -- 13,100 fewer Marines than the FY 1991 end strength of 195,000. Currently, the overriding manpower challenge is to 'build-down' the Marine Corps while meeting enduring missions for flexible, crisis response forces. A recently completed force structure study addressed this issue through a bottom-up review of personnel, equipment, and unit requirements. Significant use of the newly authorized voluntary separation incentive and the special separation benefit (VSI/SSB) is reflected in the budget estimate in order to avoid involuntary separations and to shape the force while achieving force reductions. Budget estimates include specifically identified amounts for SSB in FY 1992 and FY 1993. For VSI, specific amounts are identified only for those payments made prior to 1 January 1993 from the military personnel appropriation directly to the individual. End strength reductions will be accomplished primarily through natural attrition, retention controls, and reduced accessions. Trained, experienced Marines will be retained as much as possible. As a result, the top five enlisted grades will increase slightly. In FY 1992/1993 the following Defense Management Review Decisions are included: Financing and Accounting Operations, Consolidation of service Recruiting Commands, and establishment of the Defense Business Operations Fund.
