Commander’s Intent
We are the United States Military Entrance Processing Command – “Freedom’s Front Door.” We exist to assist the Military Services in ensuring accession standards are met so we can bring qualified, effective, and able-bodied persons into military service. Our greatest strength is our professional civilian and military team, and their ability to respond rapidly and consistently to daily screening, processing, and testing challenges. I expect Commanders, supported by our Headquarters team, to thoughtfully confront and overcome these daily challenges by executing to the limits of our authority. To do this, we must build trust with our stakeholders and partners, as well as understand our capabilities, strengths, and weaknesses. Going forward, my intent is for USMEPCOM to leverage the passion, dedication, and experience of our empowered team to implement our strategic plans and goals. This will enable USMEPCOM to continue to sustain the quality of the All-Volunteer Force.
