Anyone have info on promotions as a TPU soldier on ADOS orders?

SSG (Join to see) Talk to SFC Walcott with the 1984th in Fort Richardson. I have worked with her in the past and she would be able to point you in the right direction. She is awesome in being able to resolve these type issues.

He should have no issue being promoted. I went from E-5 to E-8 while on a combination of back to back MOB/COADOS orders. I believe that it is as simple as promoting the Soldier as any other Soldier on the PPRL. The Soldier doesn't necessarily need a vacant Paragraph and line number to fill to be promoted while I'm ADOS orders. Upon REFRAD the Soldier will have one year to find a vacant position to be slotted into in order to retain the promotion. The PPG excerpt may be the most recent guidance. The PPG is a living document that is basically the most current guidance due to the contact revision and updates to it.

If all else fails call HRC and get a direct opine on this particular Soldier. Here's and a few things I've learned since becoming a 1SG with Soldiers mobbed.

1. The mileage can hurt him, i.e., he put 50 miles and there's no slots in that mileage radius, then he can't be promoted. If you know there's slots in that radius there may be a UMR problem.
2. APFT expired in the system, check CSMM.
3. An old flag hasn't been removed, check CSMM.

Good Luck

If he is in a valid position, no problem. If he is mobilized in a position, without a valid slot then I understand why.

Can you tell us a little more about the problem and desired outcome?

Does the SM have enough point and not flagged in any way? Somtimes, the unit MTOE is the only reason for SMs promotion to be delayed

As far as I understand, the 81st has not posted a new slating report recently, but the soldier should still be promoted as if he/she were drilling at their home unit. It may be easier to wait a little longer. I have a soldier (under the 81st), who has been on the PPRL for over 6 months now. I would double check the PPRL to make sure the soldier is on it, and then ask the soldiers unit to inquire about the slating report.

Reservists whether on ADOS MOB or COTTAD orders fall under reserve promotion requirements to have orders cut there must be a valid paragraph and line number for the orders to be cut normally they would be from the soldier's unit, however in mob or deployment situations in the heavy years promotions were not denied to deployed soldiers due to the op tempo. There were arrangements made between commands to waive the position fulfillment requirements. Then the issue became a long range plan than a short range or immediate plan. If the soldier is on the list and there is a position available in the 81st you should be able to et him/her promoted ASAP. But if the par/line number is in another command they will need to sign the letter that they agree to remain and serve in that position for 1 year and that they will sign the waiver that they are voluntarily travelling outside the 50 mile radius. Otherwise they will no longer be able to retain the position

I would contact your local ARCD unit, they are the HRC of Army Reserve if you will and have AGR soldiers that will be able to help you navigate this.

SGT Amy Collins, I was recently promoted, Aug of last year, while in ADOS. The orders came from my home unit and my promotion ceremony was done where I was stationed at the time. When my orders ended, I reported to my new unit. I did everything through my home unit though. I was helped, as far as putting my packet together, by both S1 shops but I was able to promote with no issues.
