Officer Qualification Record (OQR)
"OQR" refers to the Officers Qualification Record, NAVMC 123a, and is one of the best sources of information concerning US Marine Officers. It is similar to the enlisted Service Record Book (SRB) with only minor differences. This "record presents a cumulative and concise summary of basic events in the officer's career from the time of acceptance of appointment to separation. The OQR also serves as the basis for reporting information into the Marine Corps Total Force System and provides commanders with background information to assist them in officer personnel planning and assignment."
An officer's OQR contains, at a minimum, his NAVMC 763 (Appointment Acceptance) (essentially the officer version of a contract), NAVMC 118(3) (Chronological Record), NAVMC 118(11) (Administrative Remarks), Record of Emergency Data (RED), and Servicemembers Group Life Insurance (SGLI) Beneficiary Election Form. In addition to this, if the Oofficer is a "mustang", prior enlisted, his enlistment contract(s) and DD Form 214. A NAVMC 10922 (Dependency Affidavit) is also included for married officers.

“He will not idly dance at his work who has wood to cut and cord before nightfall in the short days of winter; but every stroke will be husbanded, and ring soberly through the wood; and so will the strokes of that scholars pen, which at evening record the story of the day, ring soberly, yet cheerily, on the ear of the reader, long after the echoes of his axe have died away.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
