E6 in 3 years? Is there such thing as making rank too soon?

I can never thank the WWII guys enough, you were my heroes as a kid. I attended a couple of WW II reunions as a teen. I met General Bolte at one, he encouraged me to go OCS when I graduated from college, since my school didn't have ROTC. I did manage to go OCS after I ended up drafted. I joined the active Reserves after I was discharged and they sent me through their program. The rest was a total of 31 yrs of mixed military adventure.

Sir
Thank you for opening the path for future generations of Soldiers and leaders, I know I had opened a few doors also but not compared as WWII veterans did

I agree with you totally. If you review what I had written earlier, regarding RN’s in the military. I would like to mention again. If an ASN/licensed RN, right out of Boot Camp (actually from the day they enlist) are a Sgt/E-5! Yet a BSN/RN comes in at the rank of butter bar , 2Lt/0-1. Yet, while the Sgt. has two years of experience & most of the time, they are the ones who get the privilege of orienting (because it interferes with your ability to complete your duties NUMEROUS RN’s will hide so that they don’t get stuck with this task) the butter bar makes a screw up ori SHTF, the Sgt. will be responsible for it, being the proctor!! Then of course, he must call the butter ball as Lt., Sir, and Mamn (this is w why any ASN/RN should, at the least be a CWO!!) In the field of nursing, ALL RN’s TAKE THE SAME DAMN TEST TO GET THEIR RN LICENSE!!! That is why, I strongly believe that you are correct . In some fields, they May have different qualifications , so why does the military (who know this is a fact), continue to be asinine, they overlook the need to retain specially qualified MOS’s?? This is why ASN’s join, so they can get the veteran benefits that would pay for them to get their BSN & up to being Nurse Practitioner!! Of course they won’t have any commitments to the service!! When I was tdy to the 101st Airborne) for my @2 weeks) don’t be a hater, just months before I was sent to Ft. Bragg (82nd Airborne). I was detailed to the ICU. If you are in almost any field in Health care, if you don’t make E-7, NLT 4 years, you have a problem!! Plus , an additional problem is if you have a LPN (licensed practical nurse, who works under a RN & they go in as an E/4) and they are SSGT/ E-6, guess what, the LPN can just blow you off (per UCMJ). They will push the RN/Sgt. to see how much they can get away with!! Thus, I believe that it is possible that certain other MOS’s should be reviewed, and that the utilization of “CWO” should be utilized for retention of the men & women in the critical jobs!! Lastly, does everyone know that just 3-4 years ago, that the law changed?? AS FAR AS COMMISSIONED OFFICERS, WERE YOU AWARE THAT (BEFORE THE LAW CHANGED), YOU HAD A 5 YEAR PROBATION PERIOD?? MEANING THAT THE DIFFERENT SERVICES COULD DUMP YOU ANY TIME THEY WANT?! WITHOUT HAVING TO PROVIDE ANY REASON (TRUST ME, THEY WON’T, BECAUSE THAT CAN BE PROBLEMATIC & THE LAW STATES THAT DO NOT HAVE TOO!!) AS FAR AS THE CHANGING, YOUR PROBATIONARY PERIOD HAS CHANGED TO 6 YEARS OF THE PROBATIONARY PERIOD!!! I believe that this applies to Enlisted members also, but being on “contract”, they can easily cancel that at their discretion!! Therefore, they could use you to put your life on the line, and then to kick you out, if they want to downsize!! Feel free to contact me, if you need have any questions!!! Knowing this, instead of the day you would be handed a pink slip/ discharge orders!!!
