This is a stupid question but, what does one work on if they are a SGT with over 11 years of service, who has never been to a board, but has completed ALC-CC, ALC, SSD-3 and SSD-4 besides begging to go to the board? I am sure fixing my run on sentence would help.

A new unit that will send you to the board. Are you being counseled monthly on why you are not being recommended for promotion? If not then you need to send the issue up your chain until you get an answer.

Spot on SSG James Doherty. You should be getting counseled SGT (Join to see) about why you are not being recommended for a promotion board.

By regulation there is something being put on paper. Its still pretty vague though as there is nothing to work towards. Thank you for your replies.

SSG James Doherty
If you are not being told what you need to work on in the counseling then it is not following the regulation. you need to bring the issue up to your NCO support channel. Your 1SG and CSM have open door policies for reasons just like this. Bring your counseling packet with you as proof of the substandard counseling you are receiving.

Ok so I know that as of June 1 SSD2 and ALC-CC will run together and that all E5-E6 that have completed WLC will be automatically enrolled NLT 1OCT14. My question to anyone is is this automatically enrollment done as of 1JUN or 1OCT?

Here is my question.. I've completed ALC-CC but got selected for Advanced Civil Schooling. By the time I'm done with that and can attend the resident portion, this will be fully in effect. Will I have to take SSD2 and CC be invalid?

1SG Steven Stankovich
See PARA F SSG McCulley. I believe that applies to your situation. The way that I read the ALARACT, you have met the CC requirement.

This was pushed out by my Group SGM this afternoon. The email thread went back to the Army G1 SGM. I am sure that it will hit the S1 Net email early next week...

Ok, I'm confused. I was under the assumption that putting the "this thread is a duplicate" would lead everyone back to the original, not simply the newer thread that put the content into the description better.
