How long does an NCO who got busted from E6 to E5 on an Article 15 need to wait to gain back their rank?

Time in grade and other promotion requirements remain the same regardless of whether it is your first time or second time going through the process. .

your TIG clock resets. so 10 months. waiverable to 5 months if you're in secondary zone. Depending on the nature/severity of your article 15, a waiver may or may not be granted. I got busted from E5 to E4 and got my 5 back in 4 months.

The entire TIG requirement for that grade. Soldiers who are reduced are ineligible to be waivered to the next grade.

Well, your TIG based on current Army directives and your CoCs recommendations; your 1SG to be honest.
