You should only have to go to the board to get promoted to SGT. 1LT Private RallyPoint Member Mon, 12 Feb 2018 10:40:24 -0500 2018-02-12T10:40:24-05:00 Response by SGT Eric Davis made Feb 12 at 2018 11:18 AM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/if-i-left-the-ng-in-2008-as-an-e-5-and-rejoined-in-2016-as-an-e-4-do-i-need-to-take-blc-to-pick-up-sgt?n=3346633&urlhash=3346633 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>No yo should not if you went to WLC but if you didn’t attend WLC then you would need to cause I got my E5 before I attended any school!
