New CAPR 52-16 Just Dropped

Go look at all the promotion board threads.

The competitive board format is really just a waste of time.

Unless you got a whole butt load of cadets/seniors in your unit (I'm talking just squadron level boards here), the promotion authority should already know if Member X is ready or not.

If your promotion decision on the member's readiness for promotion is hinging on how well they do at the 5-10 interview......I seriously think you got bigger problems.

Oh, I have. And I mostly agree.

Yeah, well we don't have a huge squadron.

Agreed. I can't say we have a lot of interview-style PrBs (we only have them for milestones). I'm pretty sure some sort of meeting happens between the CC, DC, and C/CC for non-milestone promotions.
