Is the DA 1059 required to attend the promotion board to E-6? I heard that there are alot of SSG's at the WLC schoolhouse, enroute to BNCOC. Is this the new direction of the NCOES mainframe? And if so, then why is so many of old NCO's that have been in awhile not willing to accept this type of change?

To clarify, the DA Form 1059 is JUST a form.

WLC graduaiton is no longer a requirement to appear before the SSG promotion board.

Direction of NCOES mainframe?

Who is not willing to accept this change?

Thanks. The next time I will be more clear and straight forward with my questions and concerns.

RE-UP..

was that milper message directed at OIF/Deployed soldiers???

That only E5's who have been deployed and therefore "unable" to attend WLC, can get a waiver to go to the E6 board. Or is that for everyone, deployed and garrision???

I just went ahead and pulled the milper.....for people to read, first hand...
