Um, Major, I think it's time to change something....



See you on Thursday.

[Cool Mace]

Ah, yes. You must update the signature line to be within good standing of this board.

Congratulations, Major!  :clap:

Congratulations, Major!  :clap:

Congrats as well...SIR! :clap:

Did your promotion sail through easily?  I ask because I submitted mine back in August...and all I've heard is the deafening sound of silence.

I've updated my sig line accordingly too.

[Woodsy]

Congrats Major! 

I am also looking forward to Thursday.

[Eclipse]

Congrats.

[Rick-DEL]

Congrats.

And, where are you guys building these cool signature boards (with ribbons and so forth)?

He posted on Facebook that he doesn't come on here very often.  So, it may be a while.

I thought that was the case since I haven't seen him, so I checked his profile and...

So I figured I'd give it a shot.

Post him the link to this thread.  I'm not a FB guy.

Thank you, all.   I actually have the Maj signature all done up, but it's on the PC at home..  However, the peer pressure may force me to grab it from that machine and update it now. 

Looking forward to Thursday as well.  I am preparing a brief PPT to precede the demo; do you folks have a projector?

I suppose it depends how you submitted it..   I filled out a CAPF 2A and submitted it to Personnel, then got told that they don't need the form anymore since it's online in eServices (not a Commander, what do I know?!).   After that, it was just waiting out the last week of TIG.   

[JoeTomasone]

Better?

My TIG was completed in June, 2012.  I asked my CC how to go about it and he said to do the CAPF 2A and a Letter of Justification listing my accomplishments since I rejoined CAP in 2009.  I did so.

Since then we've had a change of command (term limited).  I have asked both my current and former CC's about the status of my application...They say they haven't heard anything...it's like it disappeared into a black hole.

I'm about ready to withdraw it and just try to come to terms with never being promoted beyond Captain.

yes, there is a projector and screen there.

Not only did you pick up a Rank, It looks like you picked up a "Few" Extra Ribbons. Congrats.

Ask your current CC to initiate it online.  Major has to be approved at Wing, so if there are delays, check with each echelon.  It shouldn't take very long to do.

Thanks, although this graphic is now slightly out of date as well as another 2A has been processed..  (sigh). 

BTW, Vanguard loves me this month - except for the fact that I got the new service cap $20 cheaper than their price at Clothing Sales.

Not sure what the problem is. If you've done the whole PD thing (Level III) I would think, as stated, that a duty promotion request through e-services should do the trick. You'll want to be sure a promotion board is enacted to consider your promotion (Re: CAPR 35-5 Para 1-10).  Oh yeah, if you need to - please - use a CAPF2 not a 2a.

Congrats Joe.
