Company-Grade Officers Convene at March Board Meeting

摘要

The unequal timeline of officer promotions between Army Guardsmen and their active-component counterparts was a focus of the NGAUS company-grade officers committee's separate session during the association's board meeting in March.rnActive-component Army officers attain first lieutenant in 18 months and captain 18 months later. Army Guardsmen reach first lieutenant in 18 months, too, but wait at least 24 months for captain and then only if a slot is open. This can push their promotion timeframe back by years.
