There’s a rumor in my unit that there will be no FY 19 Senior Enlisted Board. Has anyone seen a milper or heard this ?

Seen nothing. Would not worry too much until something is official. Rumors spread quickly and it would be very counterproductive for the Army to not hold a board in 2019.

I agree that it would be a set back in numbers . I wonder was something projected personnel wise by HRC. However, this was brought up during our daily PSG sync . It was said that there’s a Milper out .

1SG (Join to see) As I am pretty sure you are aware of the saying “Trust but verify”. Unless it is in black and white it’s not true. If it’s in a MILPER message already then that would be easy enough to verify.

Now I hope they hold the board and promote as usual. That’s morale crushing for those who are eligible but won’t have a chance for two years. Also if indeed they do it because too many weee selected the first time then the system needs to be looked at as they should not swing wildly between selecting a ton and then not selecting any for a couple of years.

When certain grades were overstrengtg in the past they continued boards but halted promotions. I personnel feel into this for E7 and 8. The result is the same, no promotions for a protracted period of time. Thank you for your service.

My former 1SG just made this years SGM list.. he actually told me that there will not be a senior enlisted promotion board for FY20.. and that subsequent boards will take effect the following year.
