I thought we had a class of 2000 in feb of 94.....shouldnt we see our terminal #s jump like the last time??

According to the rumor mill website, we were -8 with 32 on terminal at this time last year. Currently, we are at +4 with 41 on terminal. However, looking at jooky's numbers, another 8 or 10 are scheduled to retire this month, followed by 11 in march and 12 in april. Therefore, it looks like the numbers are somewhat in line with last year's. FYI, they skipped Feb and Mar promos last year and did a big one in April (50)

Any type of movement is good. It seems as if people are hanging around these days.

I agree. I'm in the current BMOC and I'm just stating what I heard the other day. Nothing's confirmed till it comes down if you ask me.

Brat confirmed 12 Captn's so maybe with those 12 and retirements for Feb n March maybe a nice big class for end of March..
JustWonderin said
Mar 10, 2014
Is it me or is info on promotions more last minute under Bratton? I feel like we used to get word the second week of the month and now it's closer to the end of the month
big guy said
Mar 10, 2014
The guy wants to boost morale he should put in classes more often and get thru this list
Friar Tuck said
Mar 11, 2014
With the big changes going on, I wouldn't doubt a lot more retirements coming down the pike. No more security blankets.
JustWonderin said
Mar 11, 2014
Heard 32 LTs for the end of the month. Anyone confirm?

Hey all, thanks to brat, just wondering, jookie and all others for the great information on this board. I am 36 names away so I am a few names away from being on the cusp. I know promotions are usually the last Friday of the month, I get back from my honeymoon the Sunday right after. If my number somehow gets called how would that work? Would I just be passed over, could I skip the promotion ceremony and just start bmoc that Monday, would I get promoted the following class with a retroactive date? thanks for the help guys!
JustWonderin said
Mar 12, 2014
Johnny I'm pretty sure that you would just start BMOC that Monday and your promotion date would be retroactive to Fridays promotion date
Mayweathergyrl said
Mar 13, 2014
@Johnny.....i hear that if u have good reason to miss ceremony, then u would swear in at the office of EMD.....and then start BMOC. ur honeymoon seems like good enough reason. especially if its your annual vacation pick
Johnnyo591 said
Mar 13, 2014
Thanks for the responses mayweather and justwondering. Let's see if they even reach my number. I'll keep y'all posted on the outcome. Thanks again!
big guy said
Mar 13, 2014
A friend has a question for me--If ur chronic A at the time of promotion due to having surgery and missing over 40 work days will u get passed over??? I said probably not but anyone have a definite answer?? If u do get passed over do u have to go in front of carb to explain it was a legit reason?? Thanks!
sgt2be said
Mar 13, 2014
bro.....first of all...chronic A is being sick 4 or 5 times in a 12 month period...THATS IT!!!!! the 40 or more work days deals with being chronic B....if you are sick 4 or 5 times in a 12 month period and you miss 40 or more work days...you are now chronic b!
big guy said
Mar 13, 2014
K thanks--havent studied since 2011 so its a little fuzzy--i thought chronic A was 4 or 5 times in 12 months, OR 40 or more work days missed.....thanks though!

nope....dont mean to jump on ya...just wanted to make sure you knew if you were chronic b or not.

Mar 13, 2014
If you were on chronic sick and you were about to be promoted, you use to have to go see Inspector Jones at EMD.
On Point Info said
Mar 14, 2014
FYI: Jones is a Chief now (what a joke) and is not the CO of EMD anymore; thank God for that!!

Mar 14, 2014
Yea thats why I say use to. Idk what the procedure is now.
Friar Tuck said
Mar 14, 2014
The time runs later by the minutes, and no words on how much is going to be in the next class. Brat are you out there?
JustWonderin said
Mar 14, 2014
Still hearing 32
Friar Tuck said
Mar 14, 2014
32 sounds great. I thought it would be more considering the numbers. What's the chances of back to back months?
JustWonderin said
Mar 14, 2014
I thought it would be more too. That's why I was skeptical. But I heard from 2 different people who have been right in the past
big guy said
Mar 14, 2014
I thought it would be more classes to go in overall than 1 since october!!!!! Thats just nuts-especially when all we heard was this list would start flying by with retirements and other things....so back to back at this point would be great but then it will shut down again for like 4 months!!
sgt2be said
Mar 14, 2014
the guys in bmoc have said still to early and they have no word of a class going in for april. Hopefully the list starts moving but ill elt you know if bmoc hears anything.
18and1 said
Mar 15, 2014
Too early? Promotions would be the 28th. Which means picture notifications next week. It's not to early. They know.
Friar Tuck said
Mar 16, 2014
Everyone is throwing this word "transparency"around. How about letting people know about promotions way ahead of time. I hope this week is it.
JustWonderin said
Mar 16, 2014
I'm shocked that it's the 16th of the month (soon to be the 17th) and we don't have confirmation on promotions this month. Especially because ID card notifications would come down this friday. In months past, we had word as early as the 8th of the month. For what it's worth, this past friday, uniformed promotions stated that there SHOULD be 32 LTs promoted on March 28. This is in addition to the others who told me the same. However, confirmation would be nice. The Academy should know by now. Brat where are you?
Friar Tuck said
Mar 16, 2014
Is there any chance that the number might change? I mean go up or down, depending on last minute adjustments?
big guy said
Mar 16, 2014
This list has moved at a snails pace, there has been 1 class since october, its moved roughly 25 names in 5 months! So nothing will surprise me anymore not even if there is no class once again this month....

The list was moving at a good pace the first year, then it came to a screeching halt. I don't know what's going on. Trying to get any intel on upcoming promotions has been almost impossible. At this pace the list will go the full 4 years. I guess there just hasn't been enough retirements.

If there's a class going in, phone calls for ID pics would be this week
JustWonderin said

Where is Brat? The Academy must know by now
spartan85 said
Mar 17, 2014
2011 forum is saying 75 sgts and 23 lt's for end of March. His Source works at 1PP even said his name "sgt keeney" The guy was right about January and February so it may be credible. I didn't hear anything personally but this guy doesn't seem like a troll.
JustWonderin said
Mar 17, 2014
He actually wrote 23 LTs for April. It's also possible that he accidentally reversed the numbers. So far, the number 32 has been thrown around. So 23 may be a typo
big guy said
Mar 17, 2014
Cant believe it but thats so true this list really may go the full 4 years at this rate my god
big guy said
Mar 17, 2014
And so does that guy mean 23 for april or 32 for april, or does he mean 23 for march or 32 for march??! Or does he mean none in march and 23 or 32 for april?!! AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
18and1 said
Mar 17, 2014
23 doesn't make sense. There's more than 23 vacancies.
