New Crop of Majors Coming?

[EMT-83]

It's been 3 years since the first OBC cohort wrapped up, followed by a lot of promotions to Captain. The old ECI-13 being the bottleneck.

As those Captains are now approaching TIG, can we expect a similar spike in promotion to Major? I was in the first cohort, and was recently promoted. Just wondering how many stuck with the program and completed Level 3.

[JoeTomasone]

Same here.  First group through OBC and just got my leaves. 

Now I have four years to figure out a Senior rating in Comms. 

[Майор Хаткевич]

I'm exactly three years behind all of you.

[Devil Doc]

I got another 3 years, before I even Qualify for the Oak Leaf, no Worries. I will be approaching over the hill by then.

^ Normal progression from Second Lieutenant to Major is 5½ years, unless you qualify for a special promotion.

[Devil Doc]

WOW, nevermind, my Math was Wrong. LOL. Ok So i will be eligible in August 2018!!

[Rick-DEL]

Don't feel bad there Devil Doc, I'm with ya. At a perfect rate, and all things met, I am looking at the following;

1st Lt - Feb 2013
Capt - Aug 2014
Major - Aug 2017

Or if you're a dork like myself that kept too many irons in the fire, you could go from Butterbar to railroad tracks in the same amount of time. 

I've got 2 more years TIG plus CLC to finish for the oak leaves.

[Al Sayre]

I anticipate a major influx...

I was at the tail end of ECI 13.  Made Major 1 Nov 12.

It is kinda funny, i seen a SM that was a Cadet. He is Already a Captain, and way younger than me.
When i first saw him, i thaught that he was a confused cadet, untill he started doing the mission brief. I was like DOH!!

As stated in another thread, I became eligible in June, 2012, submitted paperwork through my then-commander in August and still haven't heard anything.

I've asked my new commander but he hasn't seemed to be able to find out much either; I don't know if he's asked at Wing but he's asked at Group.

I really don't want to bug him overmuch for fear of sounding like I'm just in it for the bling.
