Why not, Florida Wing changes almost every year or so. But the Wing HQ is 300 miles away.

And it could be 600 miles away for Pensacole Senior Squadron.

I'm currently awaiting commander approval for my move up to 1st Lt.  TIG hit at the first of the month, and that was what I was waiting for. 

I can't wait to add that extra 0 to my paycheck!   ;D >:D

I haven't been promoted via ceremony, but it's official.

First it was waiting for my F24 to post. Then my promotion got hung up. I've had to wear blues for three straight weeks because my BBDU had Capt. bars on it so I couldn't wear that.

Wing CC submitted mine and it erred out. Said I was 1 of 3 that got hosed on the 1st.

What does that even mean?

Hosed by whom?
Title: Re: promoted
Post by: EMT-83 on February 12, 2010, 06:08:52 PM
Mine sat at Wing for a few days.

I was at Wing HQ getting some cadet F31s signed off, and the Wing CC asked if there was anything else he could do for me. Sir, it just so happens...
Title: Re: promoted
Post by: Dracosbane on February 12, 2010, 07:20:10 PM
Yeah, mine was backdated to the 2/1/10, but my commander didn't know where in e-services to go accept the promotion.  A little show and tell, and it was done.

Now, on to finishing Lvl 2.  July 2011 isn't that far off.

There was a glitch at NHQ where 3 Duty Performance Promotions were stuck in a black hole. They had an error and it locked it up.

It appears that it was resolved by NHQ IT.

Just wondering if some of the posts here were party to the same.

My CC was out do to a personal issue and my group CC was there so he submitted my promotion and there it stuck for 2 weeks. He managed to get it backed out by calling IT and then we had my now returned CC submit it last night and the group CC approved it and here I am.

Congrats to both of you!  I still think tracks look better than any other rank on BDUs.  When I made it I was harassed with being a "1st Lt, second award."  :D
