Can a corporal attend the SOM board? 2020-12-06T12:00:04-05:00 SGT Private RallyPoint Member 6556648 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Is the SOM for everyone, non-NCOs, or E-4 and below?

Personally, I do t see why not. However, it&#39;s whomever runs the Board that dictates the grade ceiling. Talk with your 1SG to get their input Response by MSG Private RallyPoint Member made Dec 6 at 2020 12:11 PM 2020-12-06T12:11:58-05:00 2020-12-06T12:11:58-05:00 SFC Private RallyPoint Member 6556821 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If there&#39;s no NCO of the month board sure. I don&#39;t see why not. Usually companies have SOM and NCO of the month boards. But not always.

Go to the NCO Board. Response by SSG Greg Miech made Dec 7 at 2020 12:15 AM 2020-12-07T00:15:43-05:00 2020-12-07T00:15:43-05:00 2020-12-06T12:00:04-05:00
