      This is JUST an example.
      The Sergeants and Sergeants Major (President of the Board) would ask a lot more pertinent questions and other things as well, such as reciting the NCO Creed. This is just a very small glimpse into an Army Promotion Board.

    2. The imediate commanding chain approves the promotion.
    3. The intended future plans when the canditates enlistment date is due.

    • @jomiles3605
      @jomiles3605 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Well, the US Army of 2018 still has time in service and time in grade requirements. Only after meeting those will your immediate chain of command (platoon level) allow you to even try for the board. Then you have to pass the board. Depending on where you are, and how your unit likes you (if you're MOS proficient or a people pleaser), will determine if its easy or hard. Then, you have to make points: from PT test, weapons qual, schools, online training, etc. THEN you have to attend the BLC which is a month long introduction to managing a team. You can accomplish one, or multiple of those steps, but you have to get them all in order to promote to E5. All in all, there's alot more "red tape" now, but it's not difficult

Came back in 1 year later BUT HAD to take a reduction to SPC. I walked in said a bit about myself and CSM looked over records and had no questions Anyone have anything to add? The BN NBC NCO filling in for a 1SG asked an off the wall question to try to embarass me I guess bout the IM 93 or something. I really don't remember now but back then, coming from Saudi and all that masking, 256 kits, M8s... I shot back explaining the DT236 PDR75. The unit didn't have those yet so deer in the headlight look. CSM said " anyone else want to embarrass themselves? Ask now or hold you peace."

For current events, you mean to tell me "Who won the Daytona 500" is really a good question? What happens if that soldier doesn't follow sports or NASCAR?

    North West Magnetic North North East. Things have changed ! I was in my dress greens when I was before the E-5 promotion board. I spent an eternity answering demolition math questions. Enlisted 10-14-68/ETS 10-14-70.
    My father told me of his OCS promotion board was one question, what do you not do to cold coffee? Promoted at Fort Sill as an Artillery Forward Observer 2ndLt. 1943. D day +3 Normandy. Purple Heart twice and carried bullet fragments in his back and leg til the day he died 2005. RIP my hero

    Maybe Army regs are different now. Enlisted men don't salute other EM's, only commissioned officers. Did I hear the Sp 4 address the board members as sir?

      All personnel, enlisted or officer, shall salute due to the following: When reporting to the president of a board. When reporting to an officer. When reporting on sentry duty. When turning formations over. When reporting to a pay officer.

    I guess I am the only one whose boards members actually started an argument with each other, the SGM flat out just walked out to take a phone call, and they threw a fucking paper airplane at my face while I had to SCREAM the entire creed to the point of shaking the shingles off the ceiling.

      +Matthew Dex Everything affects your performance at the board however, as long as you are confident, it shouldn't affect you.
      For example, if they ask you something you don't know the answer to, you can say, "(address the Soldier asking the question) SGM, I do not know at this time."
      If you say that with confidence, you'll be fine. Say everything as a statement, not a question. If they ask you what color the sky is and you say purple but you say it as if you believe it, don't worry about it.

      I see. It makes sense I suppose to answer the questions with confidence, and in that you are correct; he seems to be just giving answers without emotion behind it.
      I don't know if era really matters in the end because people respect confidence. If I had to choose between one guy and the other, I would naturally look to the one who really acted like they wanted the promotion.
