Modernization
ur long time-honored tradition of excellence will be our guiding
path as we aggressively cross the threshold of modernization. The
Corps' metamorphosis shall be evident on our troops in the
operational area, as the pillars of our modernization shall all
congregate to shape the totality of their proficiency and relevance.
Our concept of "combined arms" shall be fortified that will further
firm up our stern thrust of reinforcing our current status of combat
readiness and sole provider of an all-arms response team for the
national leadership.

The Marine Corps went beyond the set limits of the doctrines
development under the AFPMP with its firm resolve of institutionalizing
its long cherished tradition of excellence. The Marine Corps pooled the
time-tested concepts and lessons learned from previous campaigns to
come up with doctrines that shall guide commanders on the ground. A
major doctrine formulation effort of the Corps is based on the
archipelagic setting of the Philippines that dictates a Fleet-Marine
doctrine which will serve as the overall concept for the country's
maritime external/internal defence needs and further emphasizing the
Manines unique "amphibious skills" and the "manuever from the sea" of
the Fleet.
DOCTRINE TITLE STATUS
Other doctrines projected for development can be found in the Primer for the Philippine
Marine Corps Modernization for Doctrines Development Revised Series dated 06
August 2001.
Bases and Support Systems Development
Republic Act No. 7898 paved the way for the Philippine Marine Corps
to develop a permanent base that the Corps can truly claim as its own.
These bases will serve as launching areas for the conduct of naval
and joint operations. Fundamental concerns that will be addressed by
the development of these bases are the logistics, training,
communications, medical and other support systems associated with
Marine Operations. Facilities that will further develop the physical,
mental, emotional and spiritual dimensions of every individual Marine
shall stand as landmarks of these bases. Ecology will not be altered,
as development shall be made following the existing terrain.
