Hello, my people! I was recently asked to provide input on an NCOER we're writing for an E-6 who recently transferred to our shop. His losing unit did not write him an outgoing NCOER, so of course it falls on us to pick up the pieces.
The losing unit sang his praises, offering gushing adoration for this guy. But when we pressed them for bullets, they were unable to come up with anything concrete. Their failure to point to specific accomplishments more or less matches our observation of him.
He's a guy that would probably do well if we still had SP6 as a rank. So when my counterpart (his new rater) asked for bullets, this was my tongue-in-cheek reply:
* Can successfully inhale and exhale in sequence without supervision
* Routinely laces boots without causing loss of circulation to feet
* Surfs social media on his cellphone better than any other E-6 I've observed
* Maintains steady temperature in whatever chair he is occupying
So I thought I'd throw this topic out to all of you. Any humorous evaluation comments you've seen, or wish you could've included in writing one? Please share!

My two favorites that I have actually used:
0 Has a firm grasp of the obvious
0 There is a place for him in the US Army; it’s just not here!

This soldier is destined to go through life pushing on doors marked pull.
He fails to meet the low standards he sets for himself.
He should be retained on active duty as a bad example.

The Dept head of the deck division on a carrier shared the eval of an ensign of the 1st division.
"Instructs his sailors in the use of an officer's sword during morning muster on the foc'sle. His sword play does not match Erroll Flynn nor John Paul Jones."
This explains why I was asked to assist the ship's XO during a deck dept evolution during an emergency. The First Lieutenant told me he needed me because all he had was new ensigns. I was the air dept admin assistant/ ATO. But I was also an officer-of-the-deck (underway) while getting my SWO badge.

I read this on an E6 affidavit in support of a General Discharge (UHC)for an E4 11B2P:
“Has inability to expend effort constructively.”
shortly after this troop had earned the EIB and received a personal commendation letter from the ROTC Commandant for outstanding performance as M-60 Range Card instructor of ROTC cadets which prompted his unit brigade and battalion commanders to also issue letters of commendation. These things sometimes bear little resemblance to the truth, especially if they are only written to achieve an objective.

I wrote these one of my less than stellar airmen. "Airman Snuffy should be permitted to exercise early out as he is depriving a village of an idiot." "Airman Snuffy has unsurprisingly failed repeated room inspections due to an ecologically friendly philosophy" and finally the coup de main, "Airman Snuffy's repeated uniform & hygiene issues are due to his willingness to set the example in showing what NOT to be like to the new airmen arriving from technical training.
