1. Can't fault you for trying to help the Army :rolleyes:
2. In the Army that does matter, but even still, if you do your job, promotions will come??
3. That's why we like you.
4. True story. Harder to find than a "supervisor" :( but can you go outside your field to find one perhaps?

I'm a junior MAJ right now. LTC is all but a lock. I've completed my qualifying job, I'm in school right now. I just need to survive the next 3 or 4 years with out stepping on my d!ck and I should make it.

Do you plan to go for O-6 or be happy with O-5? Either way, retirement is not a bad paycheck..

Lemers 01-02-2013 11:33 AM

Enlisted in one service to officer in another will not hurt, but I served 7 yrs as an officer in the AF then went to the Army. I lost out on a lot of career aiding ops and networking. It's not like I started over as a 2LT

Damn. Well I still say as long as you do your job better than the rest, and don't have a sleeping disorder, they will have to promote you.

Lemers 01-02-2013 11:35 AM

My timing works well. If I'm a LTC at twenty then I have about 1 yr until the promotion board for O6. I will take a look and retire if I don't make it. If I do make it then I'll be in until 25 yrs.

:bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl: I think I know what you mean. I know a Maj in a position close to yours, only he isn't blue to green... he is enlisted to comissioned.

oh, that makes a lot of sense. damn, well, hopefully you can get that bird :tup: if you want it.

Lemers 01-02-2013 11:38 AM

I don't want to be that LTC hanging out cause I'm afraid of civilian life. I can get a top civilian HR job based on my military career. And 2 paychecks will make me as much or more than O6

I am trying to make tech one more time, if I don't it will only hasten my package to NECP for the comissioned nursing program...
