I’m getting conflicting information about this topic, so I thought I would post here. This is for Air Force specifically.
From what I understand, you are promoted to major 6 years after your date of rank to capt. does this mean that you go to the board at 5 years and pin on the 6th?
I have also heard of people going to the board at 6 years and pinning on at the 7 year mark, but the promotion was backdated to 6 years from capt date of rank.
How is this supposed to work? I’m currently being told you need 7 years time in grade for promotion to 0-4. So board at 6 and pin at 7.
