I made the list and was deployed two weeks later. Found out over SATCOM traffic another three or four weeks after the fact that I was promoted. No ceremony, didn't miss it.

I have seen everything from the over the top cheesy formal ceremony complete with lengthy recitations of the NCO Creed with cake and punch, to seeing an E-6 being tossed E-7 rank while on a detail and being told by the ISG that he was no longer part of the detail, he was now in charge of it.
I suppose the "standard" would be a traditional promotion ceremony in front of a battalion. Orders will be read by the Adjutant, and the BC and CSM strip your E-6 rank off with a person of your choosing pinning your E-7 rank on.

There isn't any. Only the records any picture go
before a board consisting of Senior NCOs.
