A. bill requiring use by the Marine Generals of - Close option Indeed. This option is not grammatically incorrect, but it would be incorrect if a better option is present. This option uses PASSIVE VOICE, a voice not appreciated in GMAT in general. Hence Incorrect.
B. bill that requires the Marine Generals to use - CORRECT
C. bill that requires the Marine Generals use of - This option changes the meaning a tad bit. Hence Incorrect.
D. bill, requiring the Marine Generals to use - There isn't any issue with a modifier starting with " Requiring the......", but use of such modifier leads kind of FRAGMENTED SENTENCE in terms of meaning.
