Only Class A, B and C mishaps are included in the data presented on this
site. All Class A, B and C ground mishaps are required to be reported by the
Marine Corps, however, not all Class C Navy afloat/shore mishaps and
Navy/Marine aviation mishaps are reportable.
For most afloat/shore mishaps reportable due to injuries, the Navy
requires a minimum of five lost workdays before requiring a report. The same
standards are used for Navy and Marine aviation mishaps.
Note: The term "Marine military personnel" as used
in the statistics pages includes Navy military personnel attached to Marine
units (e.g. corpsmen). |
