 The commandant introduces a new mentorship program, the all-marine running team is accepting applications and the new secretary of the Navy is sworn in. This week on The Core Report. Marine leader development is replacing the mentorship program. General Neller wants Marines to get direct guidance from their chain of command rather than rely on seeking out mentors on their own. He said, I've never met anybody who joined the Marine Corps who didn't want to improve themselves and be successful. So this document is pretty short and tries to get right to the point. This is trying to provide some guidance to the leaders out there. The new approach calls for leaders to make more time to sit down with their Marines and help them with all aspects of life in and out of the Marine Corps. Learn more about the approach at www.usmcu.edu. The all-marine running team is looking for new runners. The team consists of Marines from different units who practice individually and then come together to compete. Competition distances range from 5Ks to marathons and go all the way up to the Olympic level. For more information, visit www.usmcu.mccs.org. Richard Spencer swore in as the new Secretary of the Navy. The ceremony took place this week in Washington, D.C. Spencer spent five years as a pilot in the Marine Corps, flying the CH-46 Sea Knight. Welcome aboard, sir. That's all for this week on The Core Report.
