00:09.498 --> 00:11.712
- If you have an
extension, this is the date

00:11.712 --> 00:13.361
that it kicks in.

00:13.361 --> 00:15.878
If you don't have an
extension, then your ECC

00:15.878 --> 00:18.146
will be the same as your EAS.

00:18.146 --> 00:22.671
I have an extension, so
my ECC is in October,

00:22.671 --> 00:26.058
but my EAS isn't until fiscal year 21.

00:26.058 --> 00:29.863
In order to comply with MARADMIN 326/18,

00:29.863 --> 00:31.496
I need to submit for reenlistment

00:31.496 --> 00:34.082
before my extension kicks in.

00:34.082 --> 00:35.767
If I don't, I'm telling the Marine Corp

00:35.767 --> 00:39.032
that I intend to get out in
2021, and I won't be able

00:39.032 --> 00:41.782
to compete for a boat space then.

00:47.059 --> 00:49.360
- So what is your end of active service?

00:49.360 --> 00:51.561
That's real simple: your
end of active service,

00:51.561 --> 00:53.445
or your EAS, that's the
day you get discharged

00:53.445 --> 00:54.868
from active duty.

00:54.868 --> 00:57.103
Now, personally I have
a contract extension in,

00:57.103 --> 00:59.026
so my EAS is a few years out.

00:59.026 --> 01:02.183
However, I am an FY 19 Marine, because my

01:02.183 --> 01:05.407
end of current contract
falls within fiscal year 19.

01:05.407 --> 01:07.411
That means if I want to stay in longer

01:07.411 --> 01:10.744
than the end of my extension,
I need to reenlist this year.

01:10.744 --> 01:13.518
So be careful and make sure
you know what you're doing.
