I am currently a 72D in the USARNG with 5 years TIS and about to his my 2 years TIG in December as a 1LT. I was trying to figure out how to go about my promotion to CPT. Since not many people know the unique regulations applicable to AMEDD officers I would like some assistance from the community. I am moving to a unit as a 72D which is an O-2 slot. I heard AMEDD officers can promote one grade above which their PARA and LINE states, is this applicable to me? If so, how would the process work so I can work with my BN S-1?

More than that, I knew two COLs MC that were slotted as BN Surgeons, i.e. Captain, in NCArNG.

Depends on your State and how many 72Ds you have (or, more importantly, don’t have). In general, AMEDD officers (not 67/70 series) can promote up to 2 above once DA select. Some States limit this to credentialed officers (non-credentialed are considered basic branch). 72 series are somewhere in between, so maybe? Smart States shuffle all officers (not just AMEDD) for UVPs.
