That is interesting news SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL. It is sad when somebody is promoted only to have their promotion rescinded. That is a horrible experience for somebody to go through who hasn't committed a crime.
The NCOs who had their promotions rescinded were not properly vetted which seems to be a command failure. After all those soldiers personnel records and training records were available to the promotion board which should have been able to see which had or "had not completed the appropriate level of professional military education."

Yes but the change in the regulation was their units responsibility. Soldiers can not assign themselves slots for schooling that is done at the unit level. These units knew these soldiers where promotable and they needed to attend school immediately after the regulations changed. I believe their commander should be penalized for negligence, detriment to these soldiers careers.

Selfless service. That means that if you don't meet minimum standards, have the integrity and mental fortitude to tell someone that you do not meet promotion minimum standards instead of taking the promotion.

I did not know percentage of body fat as regulated, just height and eight. They still float them in a tank to figure percentage of body fat?
