8. DISTRIBUTION A. Approved for public release: distribution unlimited. 88 "While our foundation today is pretty solid, we can't keep doing what we're doing today and still be in good shape five or 10 years from now. We have to improve in three key areas: leadership development, overall readiness and our warfighting capability. These are my priorities, and we're absolutely focused on them." Gen. Joseph F. Dunford, Commandant of the Marine Corps June 2015, Leatherneck Magazine READINESS “Readiness remains our #1 priority to meet our national security responsibilities; however, our focus on the current fight coupled with our declining budget, has forced the Marine Corps to make difficult choices and reduce investment in modernization to maintain current and near term readiness. In today’s fiscal environment, the Marine Corps is investing only in essential modernization, focusing on those areas that underpin our core competencies.” - GENERAL JOSEPH DUNFORD COMMANDANT OF THE MARINE CORPS BEFORE THE HASC-D 26 FEBRUARY 2015
