<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Promotions to E5 and E6 are semi-centralized. You will submit a packet through your CoC. BN S1 compiles the approved packets and conducts the board. Note you will not attend a physical board. Available positions are based on mileage you are willing to travel to drill from your home of record. For my E5 board, another soldier got promoted because she was willing to travel a farther distance ... it was 10mi farther than I said I was willing to travel. Moral of the story, points aren’t as important in the reserves, but be ready to put down 250mi on your preference if you are in a competitive MOS and looking for a difficult to come by spot.CPT Private RallyPoint MemberSat, 13 Jan 2018 13:18:11 -05002018-01-13T13:18:11-05:00Response by SGT David A.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Depends on if your MOS is a critical one or there is an open slot.SGT David A. 'Cowboy' GrothSat, 13 Jan 2018 13:22:15 -05002018-01-13T13:22:15-05:00Response by SFC Private RallyPoint Member made Jan 14 at 2018 11:25 AM
