Advancement
Process (flowchart)
Advancements are executed using the most current manpower data available.
The below actions are related to the advancement process are options available to a Commanding Officer:
| Actions | Authority |
| Withholds | Art 3.A.4.e.4 - Withdrawal of recommendation (NJP, CM or UNSAT conduct mark) |
| Withdrawal |
·
Art 3.A.19.c -
Withholding of advancement (pending disciplinary action).
If CO does not recommend removal of the withholding before
the expiration of the SWE eligibility list (e.g., 2010 May SWE
expires 16 December 2011), then the member will not be advanced. |
| Removals | Art. 3.A.19.d - CO removes (rescinds) recommendation for advancement (this will automatically invalidate member from SWE eligibility list and he/she will have to re-compete for advancement through a SWE competition). |
Contract Corrections
Enlistment contracts (DD Form 4/1), including extensions and re-extensions
agreements (CG-3301B), are legally binding contracts. Once signed by the
member and officer administering the oath, the contract is legally accepted
on behalf of the government. Great care must be taken by the member, SPO,
and the administering officer to ensure that all contracts are properly
executed and processed in a timely fashion.
When relief is not possible or within the authority of EPM-1 to correction,
a request to the BCMR is the only to correct a military record.
Common Mistakes - Most requests for contract corrections are the result of one below actions.
| 1. Signature dates do not match reenlistment date. |
| 2. Only one signature on contract. |
| 3. Contracts approved in DA before signed by member and officer administering oath. |
| 4. Begin extension is not submitted after the agreement to extend. |
| 5. SOI not submitted in a timely manner; 45 days particularly when involving SRB or sold leave. |
|
· 6. SOI submitted after EOE date is already set by an agreement to extend. |
| 7. Submitting CG-3301B for an involuntary retention. |
| 8. Incorrect length of contract. |
